053: Overwhelming

Before they could understand it, they immediately saw a single horse carrying a flag to the city.

The generals defending the city looked at each other for a moment, and then waited for the meaning of the envoy.

The envoy was not in a hurry when he saw that the city gate had not been opened, so he shouted directly on the horse, "Our General Gu said that if you surrender now, you can spare your death." If the city is broken and then surrendered, there is no forgiveness for sin. ”

The city gate has been prepared with boiling oil and stone wood, just waiting for Gu Che and Dai Ang to attack.

They saw a lot of generals like Gu Che, and they immediately panicked when they saw the real dead people. Although the Central Plains has been in civil strife for a long time, the sons of a family like Gu Che have never really seen such wounded soldiers and dead people.

Once you lose the first move, it's not even a loss, it's just that there are more dead people. Then this group of young masters who don't know the dangers of war will fall out of harmony with the generals who lead the troops. Discord between generals and commanders is a taboo among soldiers, so there is no possibility of losing if they fight back.

At this time, when he heard the envoy say this, he directly raised his hand and took the bow and arrow, and then shot a sword at the flag raised by the envoy.

The two armies fought without slashing the envoys, but this move scared the envoy enough. Soon he rode back on horseback, and the soldiers who came over like this and the surrounding city defense also looked at Gu Che with some hesitation. Gu Che took the arrow and looked at it, raised his hand and stuck it directly into the ground, "It's better this way." ”

The first time he saw Gu Che seeing Gu Che was inquiring and elegant, the first time he saw Gu Che's change in feelings, he felt a little interesting, but Gu Che raised his head and looked at the city in the distance, "Powerful, so the soldiers must fight." The plotter, so that the enemy is unprepared. Fraudsters, so trap the enemy also. (1) After Gu Che finished talking about Sun Tzu's Art of War, he spoke again, "They occupied the place and our side hurriedly camped without attacking, and we have missed a good opportunity. At this time, we surrendered but made such a high-profile rebuttal, and the morale must be high and we will not be taken seriously. ”

After finishing speaking, he squinted at Dai Ang next to him, "The whole army is resting, doing a defensive position, and waiting for work." ”

Dai Ang nodded and smiled when he heard this, most of the battles in the border cities rely on instinct. Deang was born as a warlord, so he naturally read these military books. Hearing Gu Che say this, he understood, "Tell the generals, only defend and not attack." ”

Gu Che looked at the arrow stuck in the ground and smiled, then pulled it out again and handed it to the attendant officer next to him, "Put it away, this is the first gift they gave us." ”

The left and right didn't understand Gu Che's character, and when they heard Gu Che say this, they looked left and right and were a little puzzled, but they still nodded and put the arrow away.

After that, the whole army began to defend before fighting, and Gu Che was bored, but he played a few more games of Go with Dai Ang. Dai Ang was interested in guessing a few rounds, but Gu Che just smiled, "Where can these things be handed over at once, right?" ”

Deon smiled and didn't ask anything more.

Although Xiliang is consistent with Guanzhong, he has been in constant internal turmoil. Even if Dai Ang's father, Dai Ze and Jia Ye, as sworn brothers, have turned against each other, how long Ye Yi and Xiliang can work together Gu Che is not sure, and whether there will be a battle in the future Gu Che is also uncertain.

How to think about Dai Ang living in such an environment Gu Che didn't have much interest in knowing, it would be good if everyone was still comrades in the current battle.

Gu Che passed another half a month like this, and finally heard the news.

Although it was a city defense, Gu Che also put enough spies, and on January 7, when the siege began, the forces in the city finally couldn't bear it.

When Gu Che knew the news, the group of people in the city had already hidden in the city again, Gu Che looked at the map before speaking, "How many people?" ”

"More than a hundred." Qin Huai opened his mouth, and Gu Che sneered, "Our army is coming from thousands of miles away, and they don't dare to fight." Now that we are showing weakness and doing defensive form, they still don't dare to fight, and now that the city is about to run out of food, they still only send a team out. Speaking of this, Gu Che clapped his hands, and then looked at Dai Ang, "This battle was given to General Dai by them." ”

Dai Ang said at the beginning that he could win, but he budgeted the casualties to 5,000 people, and now Gu Che has created such a situation and is almost not far from a complete victory.

Convinced? Still not convinced?

Dai Ang looked at the general in front of him, who was a few years younger than himself, and made a gesture, "The general has a clever plan." ”

Gu Che smiled, thought about it again, and then spoke, "Tomorrow, the army will attack, and a small army will stay in the camp." ”

"What?" Dai Ang frowned, "Although they only sent a small force this time, it means that they already have plans to attack, if it is ...... now"

Gu Che smiled and looked at Dai Ang, "Soldiers are not tired of cheating. ”

Dai Ang frowned, and Gu Che stood up, "Just take it as my preference, tomorrow the army will leave the camp-"

Hearing this, the generals in the camp tent all stood up straight, waiting for Gu Che, the commander, to make arrangements. Is the battle finally here?

Gu Che said this, then stood up and looked outside the tent, "Collect all their grain and grass." ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

("The style of painting seems a little wrong, huh?") "Whatever~")

Of course, Li Fu would not be so naΓ―ve that after he divided a team of 100 people to go out to investigate, he thought that Gu Che had not found out, and at this time, as soon as Gu Che's camp moved, Li Fu breathed a sigh of relief.

There was finally movement, but the next news made Li Fu stunned, "Their army left the barracks and went directly outside the city to collect grain!?" ”

The subordinates immediately reported the results of the exploration, and actually went out to collect grain? After you've signaled you want to make a difference?

Li Fu climbed the city wall and looked at the small dots that had become some small spots because of the distance, "Do you want to send troops to attack the main camp now?" ”

"No, it's a trap." Li Fu frowned, if he went now, the main force hidden in the shadows would be able to kill them and surround them on the periphery.

"Wait for the day when their large army returns, and intercept them outside the city." Li Fu finally made a decision.

However...... Another month passed.

"The big troops in Gu Che's camp haven't come back yet?!"

Gu Che's army left in the camp was like the most fragrant bait every day, but until now they have not been able to eat it. It's been more than two months, and the food and grass in the city will be exhausted......

"Strike tonight!"

"It's tonight." Gu Che looked at the map while eating, "The army is ready to pull out the camp." ”

As soon as night fell, Li Fu had not yet begun to leave the city, and then he was surprised to find that Gu Che's army had begun to attack the city!

No, it was Gu Che's remnants in the camp that began to attack the city.

Are only a thousand people here to die? Is it a scam again?

Li Fu hesitated, and Gu Che looked outside the city at the front of the beacon smoke that had not yet risen, and then turned his head to look at Dai Ang next to him, "They don't dare to attack, they don't have the courage to come out at the beginning, then they will only become less and less powerful." Gu Che smiled when he said this, "However, the more food in the city is scarce, then they must attack, but the more urgent the situation, the more anxious they are, and the more they think about it." Gu Che stood up from the ground, "So we want to attack first." ”

However, this one who attacked first must be the few troops left behind by Gu Che first.

Li Fu was in the city like this, watching Gu Che's army of only more than 1,000 people attack, and then suddenly retreated!

Winning so easily? Is it fraud again? Li Fu looked at the army that had retreated. There were only a thousand people, but if a thousand people were taken, then Gu Che's camp outside the city would be self-defeating.

Grain and grass, baggage ......

and even Gu Che himself......

Can't hesitate any longer, Li Fu waved his hand, "Go out of the city to fight!" ”

"The defeat of the front is to buy time for the main force to set up a formation, and when the enemy divides his forces to pursue our small army, our army attacks the enemy's main force from the flank, and we can win a great victory." Gu Che raised his son and landed on the chessboard, "The game is complete." ”

Deon stood up with a smile, "It's our turn." ”

Gu Che smiled and put the black and white seeds into the chess pot, "Keep it alive." ”

"Didn't you mean ......?" Deon had some doubts, but there was no time for him to ask them in detail.

Gu Che didn't follow the army, but slowly shook back with the hundred people riding ponies, and by the time Gu Che arrived at the camp, the entire battlefield had already gone through a bloodbath, and Qin Huai had already led the army to the city gate on a horse to greet Gu Che.

Gu Che nodded, and walked towards the city side by side with Qin Huai, "How?" ”

"A big win." Qin Huai replied.

"I'm asking the Pioneer." Gu Che opened his mouth and looked up, the city gate was empty, but it couldn't wash away the traces of the war for a while, "How about the dead and wounded?" ”

Qin Huai frowned for a moment before he spoke, "Almost the entire army was wiped out, only Yu Huai and two hundred soldiers survived. ”

"Let's bury it." Gu Che sighed, "I have all the kindness of my family." ”

"General." Qin Huai walked in front of Gu Che and made a gesture, "If it weren't for the general's strategy, I don't know how many brothers in the barracks would die in the siege of the city......"

"I know." Gu Che smiled, and then looked at the long street where there were still traces of blood.

It's just that I can't face the soldiers who will never see their families because of their own tactics so calmly.

"Let's go." Gu Che stepped on the bloodstains, "Go and meet the general of the defeated army." ”

All the way to Li Fu's mansion, Gu Che saw Li Fu tied up in the hall. Dai Ang made a gesture beside him, "The general said that he would not kill, so he only tied up." ”

Gu Che nodded, and then looked at Li Fu, who had completely lost the arrogant appearance he had when he shot arrows, "Do you want to live?" ”

Li Fu didn't seem to expect Gu Che to say this in the first sentence, and he was stunned for a while before he spoke, "Fu Wish to Surrender!" No matter how willing you are, ask General Gu for mercy. ”

Gu Che smiled and took the arrow and longbow from the side. The tail of the arrow is inlaid with withered feathers, and the word "Li" is engraved on it, as if it was the one that Li Fu shot out on the city gate.

Gu Che took a few steps back and pulled the bowstring full, "Do you want to live?" ”
