Chapter 1596: Go or Stay

The words of the generals around him made Cai Cheng very irritable. Cai Cheng, who had always been decisive, became hesitant at this time.

Go or not.

This is a problem, and it is a big problem!

Whether to go or stay, there are pros and cons, and there are risks.

Going means that he has taken the initiative to give up most of the soldiers here, and the attack and defense of Fengyu City will definitely end with his defeat. If he stays, he may be surrounded and killed.

Cai Cheng's eyes are fixed on the battlefield near the city wall. The situation there is already very clear. The army that took the initiative to come out of the city has a complete upper hand, and the battle has even entered the end.

There will be no surprises in the battle here. The key issue is how the battle situation in the city is.

How many defenders are there in the city, are their combat effectiveness as strong as those outside the city, have his people realized the danger, etc., one by one, questions keep circling in Cai Cheng's mind.

The army under Cai Cheng is now divided into three parts. The largest part has entered Fengyu City, and the second largest part is in his station, that is, around him and the generals. Although the battle tonight is very important, Cai Cheng did not send out all the troops before, but left a part of them to protect him.

The third part with the smallest number of people is those people at the corner outside the city. Now, this part with the smallest number of people has fallen into a desperate situation. The specific situation of the part with the largest number of people is unknown, but one thing is certain, they can't come out to rescue the people outside the city for the time being.

Therefore, Cai Cheng can only use these people who stay with him.

If he escapes from here, Cai Cheng can only take these people with him, and these people will be his trump card for turning over again in the future.

"My lord, there is no time, make a decision quickly!" Zhao Qiushan urged.

Cai Cheng's face changed slightly, gritted his teeth, and said loudly: "Li Ye! You lead all the soldiers to support the army at the city wall!"

"Yes!" A general next to Cai Cheng bowed and responded.

Then, the general led the remaining soldiers in the camp and rushed towards the city wall.

The remaining people knew very well that Cai Cheng had made a decision. He was unwilling to give up after all, so he chose to gamble and bet that the situation in the city was in their favor.

Everyone could understand Cai Cheng's decision. It was not easy to give up after fighting to this point. What's more, they didn't see their army completely defeated with their own eyes. There was still a chance, and the defenders in the city might not be able to defeat them.

Moreover, if they escaped from here, where would they go?

As a loser, they would be hunted down by Wu Ya. If Wu Ya won this battle, her prestige in Nanping would reach its peak. At that time, her throne would be completely stable. The city lords of other cities in Nanping would not dare to go against her wishes. At that time, who would dare to take in these defeated soldiers?

Presumably, at that time, as long as Wu Ya gave an order, all the armies of the entire Nanping Kingdom would take the initiative to encircle and suppress them, in order to show their faces in front of Wu Ya. After all, many people chose to remain neutral in this war. They knew very well that if Wu Ya had the last laugh, no matter what actions she took on the surface, she would definitely blame them in her heart, so they had to perform well to make up for their mistakes and show their position.

And encircling and suppressing themselves and others was obviously the best way for people from other forces to show their feelings to Wu Ya.

Therefore, if they escaped from here now, what awaited them would be encirclement and suppression by all parties, and the entire Nanping Kingdom might not have a foothold for them.

Therefore, Cai Cheng chose to stay and chose to fight.

No matter what everyone thought before, since Cai Cheng had made a decision, they could only execute this order.

"Sir, why don't you take shelter first?" A general next to him said to Cai Cheng.

At this time, the troops in the camp had basically been taken away, and Cai Cheng lacked protection. For Cai Cheng's safety, these generals naturally hoped that Cai Cheng would not stand so far forward or in such an obvious position.

"No need." Cai Cheng said.

Cai Cheng understood the concerns of these generals, but he felt that this was completely unnecessary. After all, there was a large open space in front of them. If someone came to assassinate him, he would be able to find it early and would not give anyone a chance to attack.

In addition, although the troops around him had been dispatched, they were still protected by masters, so they did not have to fear anyone's assassination.

Seeing Cai Cheng's insistence, the others did not say anything, because they also felt that the possibility of Cai Cheng being assassinated was very low. The defenders in the city should be the same as them at this time, focusing on the battle in front of them.

"Kill!"

......

The troops on the top of the city had already woken up and joined the battle. Some of the rebels who entered the city wanted to rush up to the top of the city and seize control of the top of the city. However, Wu Fan and Chen Wende had already prepared for the protection of the top of the city. The rebels were hit head-on as soon as they rushed up. The intensity of the battle here was no less than that in the city.

Chen Wende had already led his personal soldiers to join the battle, while Wu Fan and Wu Ya were still standing on the top of the wall. Less than ten meters away from them, the defenders and the rebels were fighting fiercely for control of the top of the city.

This was the closest Wu Ya had ever been to the battlefield. She could even see the ferocious expressions on the faces of the rebels and clearly hear their roars. However, she was not weak in herself, and with Wu Fan by her side, she was not panicked at all.

"These people are really strong in combat." Wu Ya looked at the rebels and said, "Although Cai Cheng is not a good person, he is ambitious and arrogant, but he is really good at training the army. Most of these rebels are the elites he brought out when he was young. It's a pity that in recent years, he has not focused on the training and management of the army, but on how to fight for power."

Wu Ya sighed as she spoke.

Cai Cheng's rebellion was undoubtedly a big blow to their Nanping Kingdom. Although Fengyu City would not be lost with Wu Fan's help, the losses caused were still not small.

If Cai Cheng could assist her wholeheartedly like Zhao Xingnian and Qin Wei, then not only could this disaster be avoided, but their Nanping Kingdom might also usher in a great development. With the cooperation of Wu Fan and Cai Cheng, the combat effectiveness of their Nanping Kingdom's army would definitely be greatly improved.

Unfortunately, all this is impossible to happen. In Cai Cheng's heart, he simply despises her and Wu Fan, and will never be willing to assist her, nor can he live in peace with Wu Fan. Therefore, Cai Cheng's rebellion is almost inevitable. The only difference is that if the rebellion is pushed back, Wu Ya can better control the situation and reduce more losses.
