Volume 1: One Person, One Order, One Jianghu Chapter 281 Each Plans Himself
After King Chu Zhuang and Zhao Feng agreed with each other, they let the Chu army retreat slowly.
Although the city was still not captured this time, King Chuzhuang believed that the two would meet soon.
Returning to their tents, the counsellors ran out to meet them.
"Your Majesty, you must not be alone in danger, if the thief injures the king for half a point, I will not give up until I die. ”
"King, our army is strong and the Yan army is weak, why don't you take advantage of the victory to pursue it, but prefer to compete in a duel?"
"King, give 5,000 soldiers and horses, and I will take the city of Yan before sunset. ”
……
The strategists asked for battle one after another, only King Chuzhuang returned to the camp silently, and after sitting down, he looked at everyone coldly and said.
"Do you really think this king would be so stupid?"
The advisors didn't know how to answer for a while, and then King Chuzhuang called his adjutant over and ordered in front of everyone.
"Order the soldiers to make a fire and cook and keep their spirits up, and we will attack the city tonight. ”
"What are you, my lord?"
"The Yan army in the city should be less than a thousand people, and what they can rely on is that golden light, and this king wants them to relax their vigilance and make plans again. ”
"The king is wise!"
As soon as the strategists heard this, they immediately blew the king of Chuzhuang into the sky.
King Chu Zhuang was able to achieve this position because he was not brave.
The cavalry who went out to intercept the news before has not heard any news so far, and it is estimated that they will not be able to catch up, and reinforcements will arrive a day later.
In addition, the troops of the Yan army attacking Chu should also receive news to return to help, and the longer the time drags on, the more unfavorable it will be for them.
King Chu Zhuang would not expose his back to the enemy.
"Report! The reinforcements of the Yan army have reached 50 miles away from our army, and they are marching here with all their might. ”
At this time, a herald ran in, and sure enough, as King Chu Zhuang judged.
The Yan army's reinforcements are almost there, and they must be resolved quickly.
"Order you to lead 10,000 soldiers to intercept the enemy, remember not to be desperate, use the favorable terrain to block the enemy as much as possible, and close the road with gravel if necessary. ”
"Command!"
"The rest of the people are recuperating, Yancheng will be broken tonight!"
"Yes!"
……
On the other side, after the Chu army retreated, Yan Dan hurriedly ran up the city wall with his people.
It was found that Zhao Feng was still standing firmly, as awe-inspiring as a statue.
The blood stained on his body was an enemy, and instead of feeling terrible, he felt a sense of heroism.
"Brother Zhao, how are you?"
"It's okay, it's a little off. ”
Yan Dan hurriedly supported Zhao Feng and found that his hands were trembling slightly.
This was the first time that Zhao Feng had used the kamikaze sword technique so intensively, and the strength of his whole body had been exhausted, and it was already very good to be able to stand.
Carefully helping Zhao Feng aside to rest, Yan Dan asked worriedly.
"Brother Zhao, what are your chances of winning tomorrow's competition?"
"There won't be any jousting. ”
Zhao Feng wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, it was very uncomfortable.
Yan Dan was taken aback and hurriedly asked.
"What did Brother Zhao say about this?"
"There is a Mr. Zhuge said, look at things to have a view of the overall situation, the Chu army is strong and we are weak, the enemy will not give up his strong side, to fight with us for an unpredictable duel, if the king of Chu Zhuang does not come out, I still believe it, but the king of Chu Zhuang personally came out to fight, is this possible?"
Zhao Feng remembered that King Chuzhuang was not a king who won by force.
His ability is a strategy to win a thousand miles.
Especially in the current situation, the Yan State can afford to consume the Chu State.
Reinforcements arrive every second, and they must fight quickly to capture the city as quickly as possible.
So that you will not be attacked on your back.
After understanding this, Zhao Feng felt that King Chuzhuang would never delay the competition until tomorrow, and I was afraid that the winner would be decided tonight.
"So what are we going to do?"
"We must prepare in advance, so that you can let the people move their tables, chairs, and benches to the middle of the road to make obstacles, and if the city cannot hold it, we can still hold back in the market, shoot arrows at the enemy through the gaps, and use spears when we get closer, and delay as long as we can. ”
"Okay, I'll do it right away. ”
"There are still obstacles to set up a few more layers, pour oil and straw, and if they can't stop it, they will burn, at least it can be delayed for a while, and finally send all the people to the palace to avoid accidents for them. ”
Zhao Feng arranged everything properly, and looked at the Chu army camp in the distance, which was already smoky, and felt a little uneasy in his heart.
At night, there was an eerily quiet inside and outside the city.
On the burning Yan Kingdom City, all the soldiers were highly nervous, staring at the Chu army in the distance all the time.
Suddenly, someone heard something strange in the night.
In the dim night, I couldn't see anything clearly, but I just touched my head in confusion.
"Strange, did I hear me wrong?"
While the soldier was still wondering, a sharp arrow pierced through the curtain of night, only to pierce his throat.
The soldier slowly collapsed holding his wounds, and pushed to the side of the campfire the moment he fell to the ground.
Wow!
The strange noise alarmed everyone in the city, and they immediately checked on the dead soldier.
The next moment, countless sharp hook claws flew up from under the dim city, and countless soldiers of the Chu State dressed in black had already appeared under the city.
"Enemy attack!
As the guards on the city rang the gong in a panic, Yan Cheng, who had fallen into a deep sleep, was awakened again.
Zhao Feng got up from the bed with an arrow step, and rushed directly to the city wall without saying a word.
At this time, the city wall was already in flames, and countless deadpools of the Chu State who were not dying, were constantly climbing upward.
The soldiers of the Yan State who rushed in used gravel and torches to drive away those Chu deadpools, but with little success.
At this moment, a horn sounded in the Chu army camp, and countless soldiers took advantage of the night to frantically pounce on the city of Yanguo.
Zhao Feng gritted his teeth and took out the token in his hand.
A golden light filled the entire city, and the dazzling golden light illuminated all places like day, and also made Zhao Feng see the situation in front of him clearly.
I saw that the dense Chu army had already gathered under the city.
Some of them are climbing the walls, some are forming shields, and some are protecting the approaching battering rams.
Oops!
Zhao Feng saw that the battering ram had reached less than ten meters from the city gate, and it was too late to stop it now.
"Everyone's obey the orders and guard the city gates!"
Once the city gate is breached, the Chu army will inevitably attack on a large scale, and they may not be spared at that time.
It was too late, but it was fast, and with a bang, a heavy battering ram slammed on the closed gates.
Everyone's hearts suddenly rose to their throats.
Bang! Bang!
The continuous crashing sound was like a thunderous drum, making the heavy city gate a little shaky.
Just as Zhao Feng was leading people to prepare to strengthen the city gate, a huge crashing sound came from outside the city gate again.
With a bang, the sturdy gate was slammed open.
A Chu soldier with bloodshot eyes came in.
