Chapter 132: Shocking Change

Mandula led the army into the big camp, only to know that this camp was just an empty camp, and the lights in the camp were just fictitious. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 Seeing such a scene, I couldn't help but be stunned, and my heart was shocked: although the main force of the enemy army is not here, there should be 30,000 of them here. Looking at this empty barracks, I can't help but wonder where the tens of thousands of people have gone? If they were in Jizhou, that dead city, it would really be a godsend; if they weren't, then where would the tens of thousands of people go? The more I thought about it, the more shocked I became, and I couldn't help but feel a little panic on my face.

At this moment, I suddenly heard the earth-shattering shouts of killing behind me, and when I looked back, I saw that the camp that Mandula had set up at the north gate was shining with dazzling fire at this time. The firelight in the sky almost illuminated Mandula's face reddened at this time, and he could also feel the heat of the firelight here and now.

A panicked signal soldier galloped over, looked at Mandu, and shouted, "General, the enemy took advantage of our army's attack on this camp and suddenly killed a group of men and horses from the north gate. It came so suddenly, too quickly, to resist. In the killing camp, a fire suddenly broke out and the grain and grass in the camp were set on fire, but the fire was too big to save it..."

"What?" Although Mandula saw the fire there, when he heard these words, he couldn't help but exclaim loudly, "North Gate? How did they open the North Gate?" and shouted repeatedly, "How is it possible? I only heard the sound of a long whip, and Mandula was already riding a galloping horse under his crotch, and he was already looking at the firelight in that place and galloping away...

Seeing Mandula's anxious appearance, all the generals turned their horses' heads one after another, and came with Mandula looking at the fire...

Seeing the north gate, and looking at the big banner in the camp of Mandula that was obliquely planted on the top of the city tower, Mandu La was not angry but laughed, pointed to the big flag above the city tower, looked at the soldiers laughing above the city tower, and shouted, "After tomorrow, this big flag will be permanently planted here." He also explained, "Keep this banner for my good life, don't let it be damaged..."

Mandula led his men back to the south gate, and suddenly a wave of anger rose in his chest, and he slammed the wine vessel on the table to the ground. The metal vessel, as it touched the hard earth, made a high-pitched screech, and rolled to the side of the tent door before stopping. It happened to stop at the foot of the handful he walked in at this time.

He heard these sharp sounds, and saw the broken wine vessel at his feet, and his heart immediately understood. Leaned down, picked up the wine vessel, held it in the palm of his hand, looked at Mandula, and said, "Victory or defeat is a common thing in soldiers, so why should the general care so much? Besides, the enemy army only burned our army's grain and grass, and did not cause huge losses to our army." Thinking that those grains and grass were also obtained from the hands of the enemy, and if they lost them, they would send troops to get them, so why should they take this little thing to heart and torture themselves. ”

"I'm not angry about the grain and grass," Mandula slowly put away the anger on his face, sat down on the big tiger skin chair, and stretched out his hand to signal the general to sit down. Said slowly, "I'm just angry with myself, if I think about it carefully at that time, and then send troops to take a closer look, how can such a thing happen?" sighed and said with a wry smile, "How come there is no way for the enemy to obstruct the eyes?"

"After all, it's because the enemy is too cunning. ”

"It's not that the enemy is too cunning, but because of me, because of my pride, because of my conceit, because of my carelessness, that I will bring such losses to our army. Mandula looked at the general in front of him and said, "Don't make excuses and excuses for your mistakes, don't blame all your failures on the enemy, and put yourself out of the way." Mistakes are made by oneself, and you must first find them from yourself, rather than finding a reason or excuse to push yourself away or attribute the mistake to others..."

"The general's words will be taken to heart. "However, at this time, our army is not defeated, and the enemy army is not victorious, I wonder what the general will plan at this time?"

"The soldiers who have not been defeated have never lost an inch of land, it can indeed be said that our army has not been defeated and the enemy army has not been victorious. Mandu sighed, "However, in fact, our army has indeed been defeated. Morale has been lost, and two battles have already been lost. If we are not able to defeat the enemy for a while, then the morale will be weakened, and it will be difficult to take the city in seven days, and a protracted battle will be a great disadvantage to our army. ”

"Why doesn't the general repeat his old tricks?" said the general, "If it weren't for the enemy's fear of our army's plan, why would he do such a trick?"

"Although the enemy is afraid, I have already lost for a while on this plan, and if I use this plan again, the enemy will laugh at me for having no plan, and even if I defeat the enemy for a while, I will not make the enemy fearful. You don't need to do that. Seeing the hesitation on the general's face, he knew what he was thinking, and said with a smile, "You must be saying in your heart, 'Soldiers, proud of victory, ashamed of defeat,' yes, or no?" Seeing the reaction on the general's face, Mandu knew that he had said it, so he smiled and said, "If I have no other plan in my heart, I will use this plan again..."

"The general already has another plan in mind?" said the general, "why don't you tell me what to do, why bother me?"

"Come here. Mandula whispered in his ear, only to see that the face of the general continued to flow with joy, and he couldn't stop nodding yes, and when Mandula finished talking about this plan, he laughed and said, "This plan is too wonderful, if it weren't for the general, I'm afraid that no one in the world would be able to think of this plan..."

The generals gathered around Li Muqi and constantly praised Li Muqi's strategy. Seeing the joy of the generals, although Li Muqi's face was full of joy, his heart was full of worry, and he couldn't help sighing in his heart. Above the eyebrows, it is inevitable that the troubles in their hearts will be hung up, and all the generals have not seen them, only when they see Li Muqi's troubles at this time, they can't help but walk to Li Muqi's side, and whisper in his ear, "Why is the general so troubled?" Our army has already defeated the enemy army in two formations, and has frustrated the enemy's spirit, and the enemy army will definitely not attack again tonight after eating these two defeats. ”

"Otherwise," Li Muqi also said softly, "These two formations, although our army won a great victory, did not move the enemy's roots, and did not have a great impact on the enemy's army. Although it thwarted the enemy's spirit, it did not make the enemy lose their fighting spirit. Besides, there's another thing that worries me a lot..."

"What the general is worried about is that the enemy will use that strange chariot?"

"No, they will never use it again. Li Muqi smiled and said, "The commander of the enemy army is an extremely proud person, he has already lost on this car for a while, so he will not use it again, if he uses it again, he must be worried that our army will laugh at him." ”

"Then what is the general worried about?" Shao Yugang frowned slightly, and whispered, "Could it be that the general is worried that they will attack tonight?"

Before Li Muqi could answer, he saw a communications soldier hurriedly running into the tent, hurriedly walking to Li Muqi's side, and said, "General, the enemy has moved at this time. ”

"Oh?" Li Muqi said, "can you see what they are doing?"

"They're digging. ”

"Digging the earth?" said the general, who heard this, exclaimed, "Could it be that they are planning to dig the tunnel?"

"If they plan to dig tunnels, it will be a great blessing for our army. Li Muqi said with a smile, "The enemy army is good at horse fighting, not good at foot fighting, if it is really digging a tunnel and attacking, it is tantamount to digging a grave and killing yourself." If that's the case, it's really a blessing for our army, if not, I'm afraid..."

"Could it be that the enemy is doing this, isn't that the case?"

"Never. The commander of the enemy army, judging from all kinds of things about the use and deployment of troops, how could the commander of the enemy army make such a stupid move, he will never be a man without a plan?"

"If so, then why?"

"Is it?" exclaimed the general, "is the enemy preparing to pile up a mountain of dirt?"

"Mounds of dirt?" exclaimed another general, "If it is a mound, the enemy army can ride their horses and go straight into the city..."

Hearing this, the generals couldn't help but show a look of panic on their faces, and they couldn't help but make another commotion, discussing strategies to resist the enemy.

Suddenly, the first general said, "Why don't you dig up Zhangshui? The Zhangshui is turbulent and will inevitably be able to crush the enemy's dirt and mountains." ”

"No, if the Zhangshui is diverted to block the enemy's army, then the Zhangshui will definitely flood Jizhou City. The people of the city must live in water, and they can only feed their hunger with dry and raw food, and not only the people, but also the generals of our army will have to feed their hunger with living things. Li Muqi suddenly woke up, looked around at the generals and said, "Do you know why the enemy army will put that point of troops on the west gate?"

"Could it be that the enemy has already planned for our army to dig up the water?"

"I think so. Li Muqi sighed, "The enemy must hope that our army will dig up Zhangshui and lead Zhangshui into the city in order to prevent him from attacking." Once the water enters the city, the people in the city will inevitably be resentful, if it drags on for a long time, the city will spread the people's complaints, and the people's grievances will gradually arise, if suppressed, it will inevitably make the people resentful and disappointed. He couldn't help but move, looked at the sky and said, "We work so hard, don't we just hope that the people can live a comfortable life, don't we just want to protect that group of people? If we divert water to flood the whole city and make the people live in misery, what is the difference between it and the group of people outside the city?"

Seeing the hesitation on the faces of the generals, Li Muqi couldn't help but draw the long sword on his waist, the tip of the sword pointed directly in the direction of the enemy camp, and said loudly, "I'd rather shed all the blood on my body than do anything that disappoints and hurts the people." Looking back at the generals, he said, "If the enemy wants to step into this city, he can only step on my corpse to enter the city, and as long as I still have a breath, I will never let a single soldier of the enemy army step into this city and harm the people in the city." In this way, it is not only for the people in the city, but also for the people in the city who believe that we will win and never abandon them, but also for the relatives behind us..."

Hearing this, the generals said in unison, "Defend this city to the death, and never let the enemy set foot in this city." ”

"Hold out for four days, and after four days, the enemy will withdraw. ”

Hearing Li Muqi's words, although he had some doubts in his heart, after all, he still gave hope to the soldiers of the whole army, and his blood surged, and he clenched the sword in his hand tightly, waiting for the moment when the enemy army came...
