When everyone got my sentence, they all looked at me, their faces were full of expectations, and Sanbao said, "You have always had a lot of ideas, do you have any ideas?" ”

I looked at everyone, it was a cold winter, it was late at night, the weather was cold, dripping into ice, they were all wearing big wool clothes, and Zhu Gaochi was weak, with a soup woman wrapped in his arms, holding his hands in his sleeves, I rubbed my hands, "The weather is so cold, these people dare to climb the wall!" Let's not exert our power and let them suffer a little, but we think that our Yan army is easy to bully. ”

"How do you make them suffer?!" Sanbao stomped his feet and said, "Grandma, don't sell off at this critical juncture." ”

I smiled slyly and said, "If you don't take it, you will be blamed." We don't have any people, don't we have water yet? ”

Sanbao was stunned, but Zhu Gaochi had already reacted, and laughed, "Aunt Helian is really a female Zhuge , such a good idea, we men can't even think of it, hurry, tell the soldiers to go to the city gate to fetch water!" ”

Zhu Gaochi shouted like this, and even Sanbao understood. In such a cold temperature, cold water was poured from the city gate, and the southern army under the city was drenched, although it was uncomfortable, the water was borrowed on the wall, and it was not slippery, and they didn't want to use the topic to go to the city! It was too late to say that it was too late, and there were already soldiers with quick hands and feet who hit hundreds of buckets of cold river water and poured it down, and sure enough, the screams outside the city gate were no less terrible than being beaten by knives and guns, and Sanbao clapped his hands and shouted, "Clever plan!" Coup! Sun Tzu's 36 tactics in the Art of War do not have this plan! ”

"Zhai can suffer such a big loss, I'm afraid that I will be so angry that I want to jump to my feet!" Zhu Gaochi also smiled.

Everyone was thinking, after these night thieves froze into popsicles, how to give them some good looks, but they didn't expect Li Jinglong to send someone to summon Zhai Neng back, Zhai Neng wanted to take the credit, thinking about arrogance, just to break through the city, it's nothing, who expected to suffer such a heavy setback, it was the time of the dilemma, Li Jinglong learned the news again, called him back, and then took a group of soup chickens, and ran away with a gust of wind, but there were soldiers on our side shouting at the city gate, mocking, and intimidating, it is estimated that Zhai Neng will be half angry to death.

After a night of trouble, it was not until dawn that he returned to the palace, needless to say, Xu Yunhua learned that Zhangye Gate was attacked, and he was frightened all night, and when he saw us, both eye sockets were deeply sunken, grabbed Zhu Gaochi's hands, and asked in a trembling voice, "Chi'er, how is it?" ”

Zhu Gaochi said with a smile, "Thanks to Aunt Helian, I came up with a brilliant idea to defeat those southern troops. He told Xu Yunhua about the night, Xu Yunhua was full of horror, covered his mouth with a handkerchief and listened, still covering his chest, with tears in his eyes, and said,

"Rao is a fluke this time, you can't be lucky again and again, when will this day be the end!"

This sentence was like a basin of cold water poured on everyone's heads, everyone didn't speak, but Xu Yunhua went back to the house alone. Zhu Gaochi said embarrassedly, "The mother concubine is a woman's family, and it is common to say such things, don't worry about it, my father will return soon, and we will have something to rely on." ”

I frowned and said, "What the princess said is not unreasonable, that Zhai Neng attacked us this time, although he didn't taste the benefits, but he found out our reality, I'm afraid that we will have to persuade Li Jinglong to attack the city again in the near future, our little tricks are still effective against thousands of tens of thousands of people, if hundreds of thousands of troops attack the city together, there is no way back." ”

Sanbao sighed in a low voice and didn't speak for a long time. Zhu Gaochi was also worried. I went back to my room, thinking about how I could drag the time until Zhu Di returned. Zhu Di led the army, no matter how fast he was, it would take more than ten days to come back. These ten days are a test of life and death for us.

Thinking of this, I became more and more anxious, and it was not until the evening that I came up with a plan with reference to the empty city plan. After discussing with Zhu Gaochi and others, they all felt that they could give it a try, and it would be better to delay it for a day than to sit back and wait for death.

"Zhai Neng just led thousands of people to attack the city, so he caught us off guard for two reasons, first, he took advantage of our unpreparedness, and second, he attacked at night. We might as well follow Zhai Neng and return the night attack to them as it was. ”

Zhu Gaochi inherited Zhu Di's intelligence, and quickly understood what I meant, and said, "I know, let's pick out 2,000 soldiers from the army who are athletic and fast-moving, and let them go out in the middle of the night to fight a guerrilla war, so isn't Li Jinglong relying on an army of 500,000 to have nothing to fear?" Thinking that we didn't dare to do anything, he was just waiting to catch turtles in the urn of exhausted food and grass, and now he took the initiative to attack, which he couldn't imagine, and he would definitely fool them for a few days. ”

Sanbao nodded again and again, "That's a good idea, let's do it." ”

So the generals of all walks of life picked out two thousand elite infantry overnight, and quietly went out of the city gate during the third watch, knocking on the side of Li Jinglong's army, these large troops are not like the soldiers in our city, they have to work in shifts every day, and they dare not relax their guards day and night, they rely on the strength of the crowd, they simply don't put us in their eyes, every day at sunrise and sunset, think of it and come to us for a while, this time except for a few soldiers who keep vigil, the rest of the people are in a deep sleep, even if they never dreamed that the lone army in the city dared to take the initiative to attack, For a time, there was a great chaos in the barracks, and we, the soldiers, had already discussed it, and we only had to make a disturbance, so we hurriedly withdrew, so that we would not hurt a single soldier, and we gave the southern army a small lesson, after all, Li Jinglong was a little inexperienced, and for fear that we would cheat, in order to ensure safety, he retreated his 500,000 troops back ten miles and camped. Hearing this news, we were also overjoyed in the city, and Zhu Gaochi said even more humbly, "I have been empty for two months, and I almost lost the city, and as soon as you came back, you not only fought back their attack, but also made their camp retreat ten miles, which I couldn't have thought of a few days ago." After all, it was everyone who gathered firewood and the flame was high. ”

Zhu Gaochi was still reluctant to take credit, and I was even more reluctant, so he hurriedly said, "The words of the prince of the world are exaggerated, but it is just that the three stinkers beat Zhuge Liang, these soldiers, if they are not inspired by the prince, where would they have the courage to persevere?" ”

Everyone laughed, and then it was dispersed. However, although Li Jinglong retreated for ten miles and held an army of 500,000 in his hands, after all, his roots were thicker than our waists. He waited for two days, and when he saw that we had no further move, he knew that the night's raid was a bluff, and he was soon approaching the gates again, ready to attack.

We also tried our best to make up our minds, and Zhu Gaochi even poured water on all the city gates, freezing every city wall with thick ice walls, so everyone was still afraid every day.

Li Jinglong's side was defeated by us twice, and he felt quite faceless, he had already determined that there were no tigers in the city, and he was surrounded by Beiping tightly like a bucket of water. For a moment, everyone was dumbfounded. Zhu Di has already sent a forward to report, and it will take three days to enter the city at the earliest. Because the first two times were my ghost ideas, and I have been with Zhu Di for a long time, everyone thinks that I am very talented, and they can look at Zhu Di's back, and they all look at me, hoping that I can still come up with ideas. I also had a numb scalp, thought about it for a long time, forced a smile, and said to everyone, "Don't worry, the soldiers will block, the water will cover the earth, if we have God's help, there must be a way." ”

Everyone waited for a long time, and they were very discouraged after waiting for me to say a few words that were not salty or light. I made a look, called Zhu Di out, and the two discussed in private. I said to him, "At this point, I have nothing to do, and now there is only one way." ”

Sanbao's eyes lit up, "Do you still have a way?" ”

I whispered in his ear for a long time, and after listening to it, Sanbao waved his hand again and again, "I can't do it, I can't help it!" Aren't you more important than Beiping? If we lose Beiping, we will return to Daning, and then slowly fight back, if you are in danger, isn't this the life of the prince? ”

I said angrily, "I can't tear your mouth!" When is this, the prince is not as good as a pig and a dog, and he can't leave the hundreds of thousands of people in Beiping City to care about my life and death, and I am not going to die, maybe the turning point is here, no matter what, my key can be delayed for two or three days, and we will get through it. ”

Sanbao bowed his head and was silent, his face was embarrassed, and he always didn't dare to agree to me.

I hurriedly said, "Don't worry, Li Jinglong's firstborn daughter Mingyue called me an aunt, his two children almost grew up in my hands, if he has been friends with the prince for many years, I think my friendship with him is not shallower than that between him and the prince, I go to intercede, he can't help but give me a thin face." ”

Sanbao finally relented, "You can go, if you can't do it, don't protect yourself, even if you stay in their camp, we and the prince won't blame you." ”

I smiled, "Your imagination is too rich, what am I doing over there, do I want to come up with ideas to beat you for him?" Since it has been discussed, you can help me hide from people, especially Yuelong City, this time when I come back, he is busy guarding the city, and I haven't had time to see him yet, if he knows, it will be terrible. ”

Sanbao muttered, "If the prince knows, it will be even worse, just me, I am also carrying the head to do things." ”

I didn't bother to listen to his nagging anymore, "I made a decision, then I won't delay, I'll go back and change my clothes, you escort me out quietly, I'll go to Li Jinglong and say." ”

Sanbao had no choice but to agree. I changed into the clothes of a messenger of the Yan army, quietly asked Sanbao to catch the carriage, sent me out of the city gate, and rode to Li Jinglong's camp alone. I reported Li Jinglong's name and told them that I was Li Jinglong's eldest sister-in-law, who had escaped from Beiping and joined him.
