Chapter 424

~2 min read 370 words

Huang Zu, however, didn't give Liu Bei any face and cupped his hands.

"Lord Liu Liu Xuande, my army of eighty thousand has besieged Linxiang City for over a month, losing over ten thousand men without breaking it. How do you intend to break the city with four thousand cavalry?"

Everyone was also somewhat skeptical; it really was a bit hard to justify.

Liu Bei laughed.

"You have all been besieging it for over a month and are exhausted. The soldiers of Zhang Han Xian inside the city won't be feeling well either, and having held out for over a month, they have become complacent."

Wen Pin's eyes lit up.

"If Lord Liu Liu Xuande attacks one of the city gates fiercely tomorrow, it might not be impossible to break it!"

Liu Biao also regained his spirit. If they could break Linxiang City, everything else would be easy to talk about.

He pulled Liu Bei to the main seat.

"Liu Liu Xuande, you shall be the commander-in-chief tomorrow."

Liu Bei couldn't refuse.

"Very well, I shall act as commander-in-chief for one day."

"One day?!"

Everyone was shocked. Could Lord Liu Liu Xuande break the city in one day?!

Liu Bei looked around and shouted,

"Wen Pin, Huang Zu, Wang Wei, Liu Pan, Liu Hu, listen to my orders!"

"Subordinates are here."

"Tomorrow, you will attack the North and East gates fiercely; you must attract Zhang Han Xian's attention!"

"Understood!"

"Zhang Yun, you lead troops to attack the West gate; no need to exert full effort, just paralyze Zhang Han Xian."

"Understood!"

"Zhang Fei, Taishi Ci, Wei Yan, you three lead three thousand elites to follow behind Zhang Yun's troops. Once the North and East gates attract Zhang Han Xian's main army, scale the walls and break the city in one fell swoop!"

"Understood!"

"Lu Xun, Pang Tong, you two lead one thousand elite cavalry to hide five miles outside the South gate of Linxiang City. Once Linxiang City is broken and Zhang Han Xian flees south, you must capture him!"

06 "Understood!"

After receiving their orders, everyone went back to prepare.

Liu Biao was moved by Liu Bei again.

"Liu Liu Xuande, you are truly providing charcoal in the snow."
