Chapter 231: Attack First (4 more)
"Whew!"
The ordinary long sword exerted great power in Li Shang's hands.
When he was in contact with the horse, Li Shang stepped into the air and slashed Gu Wei, who was holding the sword, off the horse.
As soon as Gu Wei fell, the servants and recruits around Gu Wei all dispersed.
They were originally a sand table, but now that Gu Wei is dead, they have no courage in the face of powerful power and the mysterious Du Fangkong.
Li Shang rode on Gu Wei's horse, and he stepped on the horse on Gu Wei's corpse.
"Protect my wife. ”
"Go with confidence. ”
Song Qingming waved his hand at Li Shang.
Li Shang rode his horse and rushed to the front of the city.
Maybe he didn't know martial arts in the past, and he was greedy for life and afraid of death, but now he is still greedy for life and afraid of death.
But there are some things that someone has to stand up.
He is not a poor person now, he can run away, he is now Li Shang, he is the governor of Chu in southern Chu State, this is the territory of Chu State, he has the responsibility to guard this side, guard the territory of Chu State, even if he dies here.
In front of the Dirt and Stone Castle.
The scout galloped down the stone staircase, trying to spread the word that the city was about to be destroyed.
But a dark arrow flew out suddenly.
"Poof"
The detective fell to the ground next, and fell to the ground.
The eastern border of Chu State is double-walled, one is the outer city gate that is often closed during the war, and the other is the inner city gate that is open during the day and closed at night.
Now the gates of the outer city are closed, and the gates of the inner city are closed.
The people in the city will not see the situation outside the city.
I don't know what happened between the inner and outer walls.
In front of the city, there were many people wandering.
When the scout first pounced, he was still breathing, and he raised his head with difficulty and looked at the people around him.
"Win...... Win ......"
He wanted to desperately say Du Xianzhi's entrustment.
If the winning army breaks through this place and finds that it is so remote, it will burn the city and slaughter the city.
"Oh yes! ”
The people around him were very realistic, and when they saw that he could still speak, they ran away quickly.
Looking at him from afar, no one was willing to step forward, and they were all afraid of being entangled in cause and effect.
There were also some people, right next to the inner gates, and there were peasants, and there were merchants, all of them, and they were all complaining.
"What kind of moth is this too guarded, the drum is beating all the time, it's going to annoy Lao Tzu to death. ”
"That is, the soldiers of Earth and Stone City don't know where they all died, until now, there is not even a door to open, I still have business to do when I go out of the city, and I don't know the loss caused by his closing of the city gate, they are too guarded to pay for it. ”
"No, let's open the city gate, anyway, there are a lot of us, I'm afraid that it will delay the Taishou, and it will be impossible for the Taishou to punish us all. ”
"That makes sense. ”
This group of people is ready to move.
The news that the war was about to start had been transmitted to the county government synchronously when the spies of the Taishou Mansion got the news.
Raising the state of the prefecture to a wartime state and informing all the people in the city is what the prefectural government should do.
However, the county government has already been broken by the new prime minister Li Shu of the winning country, and even the winning country took this earth and stone city without spending a single soldier.
Gu Wei is a person who wins the phase, so naturally he won't walk those news.
His hatred for Du Cheng has been distorted and changed, and he can't wait for the entire people in Earth and Stone City to be buried for his former lover.
The fact that Du Cheng said before he died almost made him crazy.
Now, however, he was slashed to death by Li Shang's sword.
......
Win before the army.
When it was about five miles away from the city of Tushi City, the 5,000-strong army of the winning country stopped its forward march and slowed down.
Two thousand heavy men, one thousand light cavalry, and one thousand infantry went forward two miles again, and a thousand archers bent their bows and arrows.
The spies in the front line of the winning army rushed towards the earth and stone city of Chu like a heavenly maiden scattering flowers.
This is a unique class of troops that probe the formation, inspect the fortifications of the earth and stone city, and focus on firepower.
Usually, they will rush to the gate of the opponent's city and then return.
Dozens of people went out, and three or two people came back, which is already a great luck.
Today, these waves of people are determined to die and go to explore the battle.
When they returned, they were all unharmed, and not a single one was hurt.
"Strange, why didn't any of them die, are the border troops of Earth and Stone City eating dry food? No, things are weird. ”
Hu Yanmiao is arrogant and stupid, but he is not absolutely simple, otherwise, it would be impossible for him to become a cultivator and cultivate to the current realm, the peak realm of the day after tomorrow!
He has a thousand catties of strength in one hand, and with both hands, that terrifying tension can tear the tiger apart.
He sensed something was wrong.
"Report!"
Spies report.
"Speak. Hu Yanmiao waved his big hand and narrowed his eyes, he was ready to analyze it seriously.
This battle is his first time in command, and he doesn't want to have an accident, especially if he falls in a small city like Earth and Stone City, he will be drowned in saliva and will die of laughter, and he will probably not be able to raise his head in Huyan's house in the future.
In a big war, there can be wins and losses.
In this kind of small battle that must be won, he has to be even more careful, and he can't be sloppy.
"It seems that all the soldiers and horses in Chu Tushi City are dead, there is a dead one in front of the city gate, and there is no one on the city wall, their outer city gate is ajar, and the drawbridge of the moat has not been raised. ”
The spies have summed up the intelligence information.
This is the result of what they have summarized and confirmed time and time again.
"Weird, weird, weird. ”
Hu Yanmiao originally planned to take a look, and then the whole army pressed the realm and completely took the earth and stone city in a wave.
But this, the other side is dead without a fight, and he doesn't believe it.
"Probe again, this time you cross the moat, see if they are really dead or pretending to be dead, if you are not dead in the end, all of them will make up for me, one person will make up for me with two knives, send a signal, and the army will directly press the border. By the way, pay attention to breathe through your mouth and nose and smell if it is poisonous. ”
Hu Yanmiao can be said to be very careful.
The soldiers who won the country are very valuable, but the spies are different, some are caught, they are all from the people, they are easy to get, and they are equivalent to cannon fodder.
In every big war, one will die first, paving the way for the winning army.
"Yes!"
The leader of the spies led the order, and this group of "lucky" spies no longer rushed to the earth and stone city with "luck" in their hearts.
It's still the formation of the goddess scattering flowers.
This is the best way to prevent a rain of arrows, or at least to waste more enemy arrows.
But, this time, there was still no one to stop it.
The spies also thought in their hearts that the other party had an ambush.
No matter how much the border army is dish, it is equipped with thousands or even nearly 10,000 people, and it is impossible to die before the battle begins.
One hundred and ten good spies, all of whom have rushed through the moat.
"The border army of Chu Land Stone City is dead?"
Last time, they didn't dare to approach, but this time they saw it when they got closer, the border army and others lined up neatly, and they fell in rows and rows, without exception, they were all bleeding from the corners of their mouths, and they were lifeless.
