In a bungalow in Yanshi City, Xu Fusheng sat opposite Eighteen and quietly listened to Eighteen's report.

"Lee Mi is now gathering forces in Kim Yong Kim, and it seems that he will march into Yanshi at any time, and Childe's plan to lure the enemy has already worked.

It's just that in order to prevent the news of the army from leaking, Li Mi not only has a strict ban on the city, and is not allowed to enter and exit the city gate at will, but also sets up a wide guard post outside the city to prevent any spies from watching and seeing, and now it is difficult for us to communicate with the line eyes in the city.

In order to find out the news, Lin Shi took Xiao Fei'er and Li Xiuning and his party into the city. ”

Xu Fusheng was taken aback and said, "What? How many people did she bring?"

"Only her, Xiao Fei'er, Li Xiuning and Yang Qing'er. ”

Xu Fusheng suddenly got up and said, "Nonsense, don't you have any other way to contact the city?

That was Li Mi's base camp, once the news leaked out, would the enemy show her mercy? Send a message to her, stop all activities from now on, and wait until Li Mi's army leaves the city, and then they will return to Luoyang. ”

Eighteen saw that Xu Fu was so angry, he immediately lowered his head, and did not argue, and said in a deep voice: "I'll do it." ”

"What's going on in the city now?"

"We have already bought off several of Li Mi's generals, although it is difficult to pass on the news, but there are always people who go outside the city to do business, and will hide the letters in the designated place, and then we will get them.

Li Mi's army was now divided into four divisions, three of which were stationed in three wooden villages outside the city, each with about 20,000 men, most of whom were undertrained recruits and old and weak.

Only the 40,000 people stationed in the city were the elite soldiers that Li Mi relied on, and Pei Renji commanded the army.

According to our analysis, the tens of thousands of recruits of these three divisions were just a cover, and the real attack on the Yanshi must be a strong force of 40,000 people. ”

"Are there any of us among these 40,000 people?"

"Several of them have been inserted, but since the army has not been moved, we don't know what to do next. ”

"Keep an eye on these 40,000 people, and listen to Gongqing Zhang, every time Li Mi fought with people in the past, he relied on accurate intelligence to surprise the enemy with surprise troops.

Or use the method of luring the enemy, when the feint retreats to a certain place, he suddenly counterattacks with an ambush, and the defeated army turns around and fights back, and Zhang Xutuo eats him like this. In any case, I must keep an eye on the movements of these 40,000 people. ”

Eighteen said solemnly: "Don't worry, Childe, I will arrange some more people to mix in the 40,000 team." ”

"In addition, gather the nearby green shirt guards and shadow guards, and if necessary, I will let you appear in the designated place, the number of people is not large, a hundred people is enough. ”

Eighteen thought about it, and probably understood that Gongzi was planning to make them a surprise army, and nodded: "I'll arrange it." ”

Before the eighteenth got up, Xu Fusheng spoke again: "Tell Lin Huiyu that what I said is an order, let her not move lightly, Li Mi has at least 5 or so masters of the Yu Mansion Realm, and there may even be martial arts masters who break through the Yu Mansion Realm."

She has to dare to assert herself, don't blame me for the time...... Hmph!"

The angry Xu Fusheng sent Eighteen away, and immediately returned to the Yanshi City Lord's Mansion, he had to hurry up and let Li Mi's army out of the city, otherwise Hui Yu would be in danger at any time.

Zhang Gongqing and the generals were discussing tactics, and after Xu Fusheng handed over the information he got to Zhang Gongqing, he stood quietly and listened to the generals' discussions.

Zhang Gongqing spread out the map on the table and said, "Luo."

The water runs through the center, and above near the top of the map is the Yellow River, which flows parallel to the Luoshui.

Luoyang, the eastern capital, is represented by a blackened square, placed at the west end of Luoshui, and to the east are Yanshi, Luokou, Hujiao and Yingyang, the latter two are built next to the flood water and the Suoshui respectively, and the three rivers of Luo, Pan and Suo are connected together by the Yellow River. ”

One of the generals pointed to the Peugeot, which represented the city a little north between the Eastern Capital and Yanshi, and said: "If the information is true, Li Mi's army is gathered here, and it seems that Li Mi is indeed good at using his troops."

Stationed here, whether it is from Kim Yong Cheng to attack the Eastern Capital or Yanshi, the distance is not much different, making it difficult to know where he will attack, or whether the troops are divided into two routes. ”

Another general said with a smile: "This is also the reason why we want to garrison heavy troops in Yanshi, if Li Mi dares to force the eastern capital, we in Yanshi's troops can put him in the dilemma of being attacked by the enemy on his back, and at the same time, we can threaten the safety of Tiger Prison and Luokou in the east."

However, if Yanshi loses, the eastern capital will completely lose its stronghold in the east, and Li Mi does not have to worry about the problems of defense and supply, so he can attack the eastern capital with all his might. Therefore, whether or not you can keep the Yanshi is the key to success or failure. ”

Xu Fusheng suddenly spoke: "If his troops are divided into two routes, and then cooperate with the internal response of the Dugu Valve, mainly attacking Luoyang, and surrounding Yanshi as the secondary, how should we deal with it?"

Zhang Gongqing asserted: "If Gongzi's information is correct, Li Mi will definitely not be able to launch an offensive of this scale, and the Dugu family can now protect the palace for two more days, which is quite good, even if they want to cooperate with the outside, they are also powerless."

The battlefield is not a place for martial arts masters to compete for power, not to mention that I am afraid that the Dugu family also has their own plans, they only hope that Lord Shangshu and Li Mi will be defeated, how can they be stupid enough to lure the wolf into the room, so there is no need to worry about the loss of Dongdu. ”

Xu Fusheng nodded, then pointed to a mountain range that stretched for hundreds of miles north of Kim Yong City and said, "What kind of mountain is this?"

Zhang Gongqing said: "This is Bi Mountain, there is a Taoist temple in the mountain, which is at the top of Cuiyun Peak. "

Xu Fusheng's heart skipped a beat, but he knew that it was not appropriate to ask more questions at this time, so he shook his head and stood to the side, motioning for everyone to continue the discussion.

The first general pointed to the map: "Kim Yong Cheng is backed by a mountain, so there are no worries." If we march on Kim Yong Kim, Lee Mi will be able to sneak a surprise soldier in the mountains and take us by surprise. "

Zhang Gongqing said: "Not only that, if he has to abandon Kim Yong, he can cross the mountain, cross the big river, and retreat to Heyang, an important town in Hebei, which is also the logistics base for Li Mi's front-line army and backup supplies." Strategically, the layout is unassailable.

If Li Mi doesn't take the initiative to attack, it will be difficult for us to take down this group of rebels now.

This is the reason why I fully support Xu Gongzi's strategy of showing weakness to lure the enemy, otherwise if Li Mi is allowed to go west of the river to force the eastern capital, leading us to send troops from Yanshi, and he immediately returns to Kim, then we can only retreat to Yanshi.

Several times like this, we will be led by the nose by him, exhausted and exhausted, not to mention counterinsurgency, and it is likely to repeat the footsteps of Zhang Xutuo. ”

Hearing Zhang Gongqing say this, Xu Fusheng put away his contempt for Li Mi's group of rebels at this time, it seems that there are not only martial arts masters among these rebels, but also those who march and set up formations.

Xu Fusheng said indifferently: "If we defend the Yanshi, with Li Mi's current strength, is there a way to break through the city?"

Zhang Gongqing said proudly: "Li Mi's anti-thieves are all heroes of the green forest who coerce civilians to come, even if there are elites, the number will not be too many. As long as there is enough food and grass in the city, I will guarantee that I can defend the city and not teach them to succeed. "

"What if they send someone to assassinate General Zhang?"

"Hahahaha, it depends on how many martial arts masters they are willing to give, battlefield competition and personal force are never the same thing, I go in and out of the barracks, unless all martial arts masters are people who do not spare their lives, otherwise I dare to kill one of them. ”

A young general who had been silent said: "General, I have a plan to let Li Mi immediately raise troops to the south. ”

"What a plan, let's hear it. ”

"We can come up with a trick to ask you to burn grain. ”

A general next to him slapped the table and said, "This is indeed a superior plan to lure the enemy."

We can transport the fake grain and grass to the military camp on the south bank of the pontoon bridge, and assume the posture of marching to Luokou in the first day, and if the enemy thinks that he has succeeded in burning the grain and grass, he will immediately raise troops to the south, right?"

The young general shook his head and said: "There is one thing that the general did not guess correctly, that is, we want him to burn real grain and grass, as long as he leaves enough grain and grass for ten days." "

The generals were stunned, only Zhang Gongqing frowned.

The young general Cheng Zhu said in his chest: "Only if you really let him burn the grain and grass can you deceive Li Mi." This is also the method of being sunk by an axe and fighting against the city, so that the people below can decide to die in a battle. "

Zhang Gongqing took a deep breath and said: "It's a good plan, but it's too risky, and one mistake will make our 20,000 troops hate Luoshui." "

The young general said with a resolute face: "No, it's not dangerous, how can we let these thieves be fooled? It is precisely because no one guessed that we would be so bold that we will be tricked."

As long as Li Mi's main force to the south is defeated, what will the remaining group of old and weak soldiers do. At that time, our troops were divided into two routes, one to take Kim Yong Yong, and the other to force Luokou, and grain and grass could be sent from the eastern capital in a steady stream, so we didn't have to worry that anyone could cut off our supplies!"

Zhang Gongqing's face was bright and dark, and he was obviously hesitant.

Xu Fusheng glanced at the young general appreciatively, and said slowly:

"I think this general's plan is feasible, now the Eastern Capital is too busy to take care of itself, if Li Mi adopts the method of interception, we will become a lone army, and sooner or later we will be lost due to the lack of food and grass.

That being the case, anyway, we have to show weakness to the enemy, and we might as well show it thoroughly, but this will test whether the generals have confidence in their 20,000 elites to destroy the rebels. "

Zhang Gongqing looked up at the roof beam, and said after a while: "Okay, then let's take a gamble!" General Li, you are responsible for protecting the grain and grass and the barracks, and this matter will be arranged by you.

The whole set of songs must be sung, and the dances must also be performed in full sets, and from now on, the city defense orders must be strictly enforced in the city, and no one is allowed to enter or leave the city gates. Unless I approve it, the generals are to remain in the camp and be put under siege at night.

After the grain is removed from the warehouse, it is replaced with other fake goods. I will transfer 20,000 troops to Muzhai in Henan Province one after another, and assume the posture of attacking Luokou. ”

When the generals heard what Zhang Gongqing said, they all took two quick breaths to relieve their nervousness.

The young general's face was excited, and he said: "We must also send archers to stand guard at the city wall, and if a bird such as a carrier pigeon wants to fly outside the city, shoot it down, and even more so to prevent anyone from sending news through the channel leading to the outside of the city, so that people can believe it." ”

Zhang Gongqing smiled: "Aren't you afraid that the news will be completely cut off?"

The young general smiled and said, "I'm not afraid that the news will be cut off, but I'm afraid that Li Mi will even burn our surplus grain, which will be terrible!"
