Chapter 971: One General's Success, Built on Countless Bones

Your judgment is highly accurate. In fact, right now, Li Xin and Wang Ben were also looking at Chengdu City's towering city walls and nearly perfect defensive measures when their first thought was that not only would the battle be difficult, but it also couldn't afford any mistakes.

Li Xin was barely in his thirties—full of vigor. Given his temperament, faced with such a situation, he couldn't help but frown deeply and said to the veteran Wang Ben beside him, "General Wang, what do you think? How should we fight this battle? The Tang Army, just like a shrinking turtle, hides in the city without coming out. And based on our intelligence, their numbers seem no less than ours. In my opinion, at least four hundred thousand men will be needed to take down Chengdu City!"

Wang Ben was also filled with grievances. Although Fu Su was wise, he still carried the bloodline of Emperor Qin Shihuang and Yingzheng in his bones; once impulsive, he could disregard everything.
