Five Hundred and Fifty-Six: The Final Battle (41)

"It's nighttime, but because of the torches, it doesn't look like night, and you can see things in the distance as clearly as during the day. Chiba said, looking around.

"This is the so-called round-the-clock surrounding. Xiao Yuan said, "Just think about it, looking around from Meng Sun's palace, it should have been a dark night, but it turned out to be such a dazzling and eye-catching light, it feels like being stared at by many people all the time, even if you sleep, you can't sleep well." ”

"Of course, just by surrounding this place, it's already making it hard for them to sleep. ”

The Liushan Annex was originally the place where Meng Sunying settled Zhou Yanbo when he came to Qianye Mountain last time, but now it has become the home of Zhou Yanbo's army, as well as the place to contact Situ Yide and Ye Qianxi, after all, the Liushan Annex is not too far from the mountain city, and everything is readily available.

"Look at it as you think...... Do you want to encircle this place for a long time? Why do you think of using the strategy of encirclement, this strategy should be the least suitable for your personality. Situ Yide asked.

"Originally...... I really didn't think of using the siege strategy, according to the original plan, after breaking through the outer city, temporarily surround the mountain castle, and then use Luoying's ability to first explore the weak points of defense at night, and then assume a good climbing rope, thinking of directly hitting the opponent's interior to cause chaos. Zhou Yanbo scratched his head, "But then I gave up directly." ”

"Why?"

"Because the previous attack on the outer city was really beyond my expectations, although I issued several strict orders, which may cause a lot of obstacles to everyone's attack, but I originally thought that even with such strict orders, everyone would still be able to occupy the outer city in a short time, but the result was that the time spent exceeded my expectations, not only time, but also casualties. ”

"So because of this incident, you think it's not advisable to attack too much?"

"Well, the stubborn resistance of the Meng Sun army defending the city is simply beyond my expectations, I originally thought that the Meng Sun army, which had lost the dark province and the main force, could not have such a strong resistance. If it goes on according to the original plan, there is no doubt about the capture of the mountain city, but the loss will be great, although it is said to break the encirclement network, but it is not possible to put all the strength of the Zhou family into it for the sake of a siege network. ”

"But it's useless to just surround and not attack, as you can see, they don't surrender easily. ”

"They will surrender, for it is not the city that I have besieged, but the hearts of men. ”

"People's hearts?"

"It is also the people who defend the city, and because of this, there is no city in the world that cannot be attacked. Doesn't it say that the siege of the city is the best, if we forcibly attack the city, then we have chosen a lower strategy, so when I saw that it was so laborious to attack the outer city, I directly replaced the original method. ”

"So what do you want to do?" Situ Yide was very interested in Zhou Yanbo's method.

"The encirclement is only the first step, but also the most basic and important step, for the next three days, everyone in the legion will not move, do not make any other movements except for normal patrols and surveillance, first be quiet, torture them for three days. Zhou Yanbo showed a sly smile.

"Looks like you've got a bad idea again. ”

"No, it's a good idea. ”

In the next three days, everyone followed Zhou Yanbo's orders, except for patrolling and surveillance, there were no other large-scale actions, so that in the Mengsun Palace, it was like they could only see the other party's face, but they couldn't hear what the other party was saying. The anxious mood has been accumulating in Mengsun's palace, and everyone's originally tense nerves are unconsciously tightening tighter and tighter.

"It's so quiet......" In the courtyard of the Liushan Annex, Zhou Yanbo was lying on a rocking chair basking in the sun leisurely, while Meng Sunying was sitting on the stone bench next to him drinking tea, after all, there was nothing to do.

"But then again, hasn't there been any movement in Mengsun leaving the palace these days?" Zhou Yanbo asked.

"Not in the first two days, but on the third day they tried to test the strength of our encirclement network, and were easily driven back by the guards and guards. ”

"Dispatched? This shows that the other party can't help it. ”

"Yes. ”

"Then it's time to move on to the next one and figure out some action. ”

"Do you want to attack?"

"No need, just go and get some harassment that isn't considered harassment. Zhou Yanbo said, "Now the people who Meng Sun left the palace, although they are not frightened birds, but they have also been frightened a lot, even if our people inadvertently get closer to the palace, they will react strongly, it is very interesting to imagine." ”

"That will only make them more restless and anxious. You may even have trouble sleeping. ”

"Do you think I'll give them a good night's sleep?"

"I get it. ”

In the next two days, according to what Zhou Yanbo said, Zhou Jiajun made some intentional or unintentional actions under Meng Sunjun's nose, although for Zhou Jiajun, these actions will not cause substantial harm to Meng Sunjun, but they are fully prepared to cause the greatest psychological damage to the other party. The nerves that had been tense are now like strings that are too tight, and they can easily break.

During this time, Situ smiled, and the main force of Luoying also rushed to Jiazhou.

"It's slow. Zhou Yanbo, who was lying in the rocking chair, smiled at Situ and complained, "It's slow to death, if it weren't for you being too slow, I wouldn't have been shot." ”

"Blame us? We have traveled to most of Mengsun's territory to help you clear the forces of the dark province, if you don't say a good word, it's just a good thing, and you will blame Luo Ying, and when you know that there is a mistake, you should blame yourself as soon as possible. ”

"What's that saying, and what's going on?"

"Do you still need to ask, there are those who return to obedience, and there are those who resist, don't you have to think about it at all?" Situ said with a smile, "To say a digression, Di Qingfei and they chose to belong." ”

"I want to get it. Zhou Yanbo said, "Since you're here, you can help me, right?"

"What are you going to do?"

"God is unknowingly storing the grain that burned Meng Sun's palace, and tomorrow night is the deadline. ”

"You...... Playing tricks again?" Situ said with a smile, "Just like Xinye did before?"

"It's not that you're going to play tricks again, but you're already playing tricks, and you're three days late. ”

"I see. ”

Losing the protection of the dark province has been Qiu Yu's agency, Mengsun's palace has become very easy to invade, it only took half a day for Luoying to find all the places where Mengsun leaves the palace to store food, as if to prevent Luoying's infiltration, the palace built several basements to store grain, and the investigation found that these grains are enough for everyone in Mengsun's palace to support about fifteen days. According to Zhou Yanbo's instructions, Luo Yingshe only left them nearly a day's worth of food in advance, and the rest was burned with fire, and the result was that Zhou Jiajun was here that night as if he was watching the drama of fighting fires in the mountain city.

"This is the opponent's defense map. Situ smiled and said, "It's already been investigated." ”

"Hmm......" Zhou Yanbo looked at the defense map and asked coldly, "If the people on the mountain want to escape, how should they design the route?"

"Huh?" Xiao Yuan, who was on the side, was stunned, "If it's to escape, they don't need to design any routes at all, no one knows the terrain of the palace better than them." ”

"There's always a head that doesn't turn. Zhou Yanbo straightened up, "Anyway, you stand on top of the people in the palace and think about it, think about this drawing, think of a few lines that are easy to come down and will not be easily discovered, and then report to me." ”

After that, everyone put the drawings in front of Zhou Yanbo again, and some curves were drawn with red pens, which seemed to be the escape route they thought of.

"Not bad...... Not bad!"

"Could it be that Immortal Lord, you want to sneak in, this is the escape route after thinking about it?" Xiao Yuan asked tentatively.

"Why do you think that?"

"Otherwise, what do you want to do with this line, the fairy lord is probably sneaking in and talking directly to the other party's master...... Or teasing?"

"You think too much, this is the escape route, not for me, but for the people of the Mengsun family. Zhou Yanbo picked up the drawings and said to everyone, "Starting tomorrow, attack the palace!"

"Attack, how to attack?"

"I don't want you to attack the center of the palace, so it will be too cost-effective to encircle it. Zhou Yanbo said, "These attacks require you to create the route you agreed on just now, that is, the route that can allow ordinary people to escape, and it is not difficult to use firearms and manpower to use the attack as an excuse to do this." ”

"Do you want to give the soldiers of the Meng Sun family a chance to escape here?"

"There are delicious meals here, a safe environment, and permanent guarantees, why don't you come?" Zhou Yanbo said to everyone with a kind smile.

"Devil ......," Situ said with a smile leaning against the door frame, "Constantly torturing the other party's body and spirit with despicable methods, and then giving the other party an incomparable sweetness to gradually lose it, and finally fall towards you?"

"That's natural, isn't it strange that I'm a demon who can slowly devour the hearts of the people of Chiba Mountain Castle?" Zhou Yanbo smiled slyly.
