Chapter 1980: Negotiation between monarchs and ministers (middle)

"Since General Qian is so optimistic about Chen Kedi, why don't we attack them by night and catch them by surprise, how about conquering Minzhou City as quickly as possible?"
Ling Feiyang had a plan in his heart, and stood up and proposed.
But it was rejected by his father Ling Feng.
"This is not possible. Originally, the Lord's intention to send troops was to occupy the righteousness and uphold loyalty and filial piety, and the loyal and filial person could not do anything with his elders, let alone his own clan!"
"If the battle is head-on, the people may think that the two sides are desperate and have no alternative but to start the war, but if we launch a surprise attack, even if we win, the lord's position in the hearts of the people will be shaken."
"That's what Chen Yi is in the middle of. You must not mistake yourself when you fly!"
If Ling Feiyang had listened to his father's words a year ago, even if he might think it made sense, he would still argue with his neck.
But now, after a year of strength, Ling Feiyang is no longer the Ling Feiyang of the year.
Even if he was reprimanded by his father, he could accept it with an open mind and silently retreat to constantly examine himself in order to come up with a better plan next time.
This is his growth this year.
Chen Fan looked in his eyes and nodded secretly. At this time, Ling Feiyang had the qualifications to become a general. He was quite satisfied with this growth rate.
Putting his satisfaction with Ling Feiyang aside for the time being, Chen Fan looked at Shenji, "Shenji, do you have an opinion on tomorrow?"
Suan Shenji bit his lip and groaned for a moment, then said, "The situation is very unfavorable for us now."
"Sneak attack is not possible, and you must be careful to make a fuss about it in frontal confrontation. Therefore, according to the subordinates, this battle is absolutely impossible to fight. It is best to think of a way to get the best of both worlds and win the victory without blood."
"For example, using people's hearts?"
Chen Fan understands the meaning of sacred machine.
It was like facing Qian Qian in Jingzhou at the beginning. It was a good way to break through the gates of the people and let the enemy collapse inside. After all, no matter how strong a fortress was, it couldn't resist internal erosion.
But now that Chen Fan's heart is full, he can indeed use this method to win.
Only this time Weng Yan seemed to have different opinions.
This is a bit strange.
We must know that Weng Yan was always present when discussing tactics before the war, but he never spoke once.
The biggest advantage of Weng Yan is that he can clearly see his identity.
He was just an eunuch, a slave who followed Chen Fan carefully.
Even though Chen Fan gave him a lot of respect and even always called Uncle Weng, Weng Yan did not swell.
Since ancient times, eunuchs have been very sensitive about military management. How many large eunuchs who have stretched out their favors have finally died in this matter. How can Weng Yan be guilty?
Moreover, he doesn't understand political mediation, let alone military art of war, so he can only listen carefully.
But this time is different, Weng Yan has a more favorable condition than anyone present.
That is, he is the only one who knows the Chen clan and Minzhou City best!
Even Qian Qian can't match this point, because when Nian Qian Qian studied with Chen Kedi, it was during the years when Chen Kedi was an official in Beijing.
After Chen Kedi resigned and returned to his hometown to take care of family affairs, the two rarely had contact.
So Qian Qian has never been to this city of Minzhou.
"Young Master, a few generals, the old slaves don't understand the important matters of the military, but there is one thing you don't understand."
"Oh?" Chen Fan was puzzled when he heard the words: "What's the matter Uncle Weng said?"
I saw Weng Yan bowed slightly, and then whispered: "The old slave once came to Minzhou City with the first emperor and lived in the Chen Mansion for a period of time. Therefore, the people present know the Chen clan best. It's the old slave."
