"Li Ji, don't keep me in suspense. Hurry up and tell me!”
Cheng Yaojin broke free from Zhang Liang and asked anxiously.
Zhang Gongjin and Zhang Liang also looked at Li Ji, hoping to get an answer.
" Actually, I've suspected that Li Chengdao is not in Youzhou City since yesterday!" Li Ji said.“
"What is it? You suspected it yesterday?"
Zhang Liang asked in surprise.
Li Ji nodded and said," It can be seen from the previous two major battles that Li Chengdao is good at using risky moves. He is fierce in battle and can be considered a general. He will definitely not wait for death in the isolated city!”
Cheng Yaojin and the other two were deep in thought.
" Suspicion is suspicion," Li Ji continued." The scouts didn't bring any intelligence. Neither did they discover any Youzhou army around Youzhou City!”
"Then how did you determine that Li Chengdao is not in the city?”Zhang Gongjin asked.
"Today, I ordered the army to surround the city and make an attack stance. We found a flaw!”
"Flaw?" Zhang Liang muttered. What flaw?
Today, I estimated that there are about 30,000 guards on the city wall, which is consistent with the previous news!
Could it be that Li Chengdao only brought a dozen people outside the city? He's really courting death by doing this!"
Li Ji shook his head." There are only about 10,000 soldiers on the city wall. The other 20,000 should be the young men in the city!"”
Cheng Yaojin and the other two widened their eyes. Zhang Gongjin asked,"How did you discover it when it was a thousand steps away from the city wall?”
Li Ji said," Our army is preparing to attack the city. If they are soldiers who have been fighting for a long time, they will lower their backs slightly and hide behind the city wall to prevent our army from shooting arrows. As for those who have never been on the battlefield, they will be nervous. Therefore, they will stand straight to embolden themselves and ease the tension caused by fear.”
Oh! The three of them came to a realization.
The three of them were also veterans, and they all secretly admired him.
Li Ji was indeed worthy of being a great military strategist of the current era. Discovering military intelligence bit by bit was indeed not an undeserved reputation.
After a while, Cheng Yaojin asked,"What should we do next?" We don't know where Li Chengdao is. Once we attack the city, we might be attacked from both sides!”
"One word, wait!" Li Ji said resolutely.”
"Wait?" The three of them were confused.
"When Li Chengdao makes his move, he will definitely reveal a flaw and our army will have a chance.”Li Ji said confidently.
The three of them didn't seem to understand and turned around to return to the camp.
Just like this, for several days, Li Ji's army locked the camp gates, neither attacking the city nor going out to battle. The generals on both sides were very surprised.
Hekou Town.
"What's Li Ji keeping me in suspense for?" Li Chengdao asked Han Xin. We won't fight, we won't attack the city."
"Li Ji is waiting!" Han Xin smiled.”
"Wait?" Li Chengdao's mind was filled with questions.
Han Xin nodded slightly and said," That's right. Li Ji is waiting. He's waiting for the lord to make a move. As long as the lord makes a move, he'll definitely reveal a flaw!"”
"What if I don't make a move?" Li Chengdao asked.
"If the lord doesn't make a move, Li Ji will definitely make the lord make a move!" Han Xin said with a smile.”
Li Chengdao was a little confused and asked again,""Why?"
"It's still the same sentence. Trust knows Li Ji, but Li Ji doesn't trust. He will definitely lose this battle!”Han Xin said confidently.
After more than ten days, Li Ji did not make a move. He did not even send out any scouts.
On this day, Zhang Liang, Zhang Gongjin, and Cheng Yaojin came to the main tent.
" General, His Majesty ordered us to conquer Youzhou City in 3 months." Zhang Liang said," It's been one month, yet our army has not made any move. Isn't it unreasonable?"”
Cheng Yaojin also said,"We'll keep waiting. When will it end?"”
Zhang Gongjin also consoled him,"Please make a decision, Great General!"”
Li Ji sighed and said," It's a pity that Li Chengdao is only in his teens. In time, he will definitely be a military strategist!"”
He didn't expect a teenager to be so calm. He didn't move for more than ten days, as if he had disappeared.
"Don't talk nonsense. Li Chengdao must die. He has no future!" Cheng Yaojin said.”
Li Ji knew that Li Shimin would not let Li Chengdao go, so he no longer hesitated.
He said to the three of them,"Since he can hold his breath and not make a move, then I'll let him make a move!"”
Just like that, the battle between the two armies continued like a chess game.
This game of chess used the land within a thousand miles of Youzhou City as the chessboard and over a hundred thousand soldiers as the chess pieces.
Han Xin and Li Ji faced each other from afar, like two unparalleled national experts, testing each other and scheming.
Finally, Li Ji was the first to place a piece on the chessboard.
