PS: The new book will be stopped for a while, and the rectification will be done until the editor is satisfied, and it will be overhauled as soon as it is changed, so don't rush it first, the author has been sleeping at five o'clock in the morning for several days.

Originally, Xin Ping heard that the county orders of the three cities of Licheng, Tugucheng and Taixian could also send messengers for help, and they could always support it for a while. Unexpectedly, the front foot had just received these messengers for help, and the back foot had also arrived.

What Xin Ping didn't know was that his luck was already very good. Because afterwards, Zhou Yu learned from the mouth of the Spiegel Wei hidden in Dongping Mausoleum City that Xin Ping was still preparing for the army, in a vain attempt to divide the troops into three ways to rescue the three cities. Zhou Yu regretted that his face was green, he knew that after he broke the city, he directly pretended to be an unbroken city, and then surrounded the point to send reinforcements, and directly annihilated the army in Dongping Ling City outside the three cities in one game, what are you doing with all this effort?

But Xin Ping naturally didn't know about these things. Today's Xin Ping is working hard to write several letters in a row. One was sent urgently to Yuan Shao on the front line of Guandu, one was sent to Cui Yan, who managed Qingzhou in place of Yuan Tan, and the rest of the letters were sent to officials in other counties in Qingzhou to prevent anyone from being raided by Cao's army again.

And Xin Ping still didn't know that Yuan Tan had led a large army from Donglai County, and was now drifting on the sea.

Xin Ping asked Sima of Jinan County, "How many defenders are there in Dongpingling today?" ”

This county Sima is not ordinary, his name is Xianrong, the nephew of Xian Rong.

Xianrong is not very old, but when it comes to handling military affairs, his methods are extremely sophisticated, and his military ability is not bad. Although he is not good at attacking, he is very good at defending the city, so Xin Ping asked the judge to help. Originally, Xin Ping was just in case, after all, Jinan County borders on Cao Jun, who would have thought that Xianrong, who was just helping to deal with military affairs, would really come in handy today.

Xianrong was full of confidence in this battle, "The county guard can rest assured, counting the defeated army of the three cities, there are still 18,000 defenders in the city." The general number of each army of the Cao army is about 25,000 people, even if there is a gap in combat power between the soldiers, and the Cao army has advanced siege machinery, I can defend it for at least half a month! And at that time, reinforcements from other counties were almost there. ”

"Boyu, you are not good at military affairs, all military matters are handed over to you, you must guard until the reinforcements arrive!" Xin commented on the positive color road, and his expression was extremely serious.

Xin commented on the young man's ambition, and now he is facing another opportunity to make great contributions, although he is full of confidence, he is not proud, but still maintains a cautious and humble attitude.

"However, those routs, I think it is better to confirm the identity, if there is an enemy army mixed in, then no matter how strong the city is, it will not be able to hold it."

Xin Ping smiled and said, "Don't worry, Boyu, I have already thought of it." So I asked the soldiers who were holding letters for help to verify and confirm the identities of almost all of them. X also kept an eye on it, these people didn't identify everyone, otherwise X would really be suspicious of them. ”

Xian Rong thought about it, and it was true. After all, although the messenger for help is a confidant or favorite general of the county order, it is impossible to know all the soldiers. really recognized everyone, but it showed that this was an enemy spy.

No wonder the eldest prince sent Xin Ping to Jinan County, thinking carefully and acting cautiously, thinking that he could cooperate well with Xin Ping to defend this Dongping Ling City!

However, for the sake of safety, Xianrong integrated the defeated army and the messenger for help, and the number of people was nearly 3,000. Then he arranged these three thousand people under his nose - the south gate

Xian Rong believes that although these 3,000 people are a defeated army, they also have the strength to fight. Watching it themselves, they didn't dare not help it. If you have evil intentions, you can stop their conspiracy by yourself.

Later, Xin Ping began to recruit young men in the city as auxiliaries to help carry logs, stones, oil and arrows. Xin Ping is an honest official, and he is lightly paid in Jinan County, so the people's hearts and voices in Dongping Lingcheng are also very high, and the people are also willing to do these non-dangerous things for Xin Ping, not to mention that Xin Ping also offered attractive conditions for exemption from one year of forced labor.

Cao Jun gave Xin Ping and Xianrong a chance to prepare, and set off after resting for a day. After arriving at Dongping Mausoleum City, they surrounded it on all sides, and then decided to continue to rest for another day.

The South Gate Camp of the Xuanwu Army

Li Dian personally blocked the south gate, Sun Ce and Zhou Yu were in charge of the north gate, Li Quan was in charge of the east gate, and Li Gan was in charge of the west gate.

But Li Quan, who was stationed at the east gate, was a little incomprehensible to Li Dian's order to besiege the city on all sides, in his opinion, the siege of three missing should be the correct way to siege the city, and he deliberately dared to come to the south gate camp from the east gate camp to ask Li Dian.

"General, the art of war: the siege of three is missing one. Our army will surround Dongpingling City on all sides, will it make the enemy troops in the city live to the death and fight to the death? ”

Li Dian shook his head helplessly, his cousin was still so brave and resourceless. As the chief general of the Xuanwu Army, he is also a little selfish, and he once wanted to cultivate Li Quan's battle array command ability, but Li Cheng may really not be suitable for commanding troops, and he has not made much progress so far. But since Li Cheng asked, he would naturally answer patiently.

"Brother, let me ask you, what is the purpose of these siege methods?"

Li Cheng thought for a while, and said tentatively, "Siege? ”

After Li Dian heard this, the corners of his forehead burst into blue tendons, and he hated that iron could not become steel, and he almost wanted to beat someone.

"Whew." Li Dian took a deep breath, "Nonsense, not for the siege or for what?" Isn't it more direct to attack the city with ants? ”

"Fewer casualties! Fearing that the enemy will die is also to reduce the casualties of our soldiers! However, our army has already infiltrated the city with nearly 3,000 men and horses, and at that time, the inside and outside should open the city gate and directly surround the enemy troops in the city. And these defenders are just the children of Jinan County, and they will not really defend the city for Xin Ping. When the time comes, it will be enough to rely on the people's hearts of the lord in Qingzhou to surrender! ”

Li Quan's sudden realization made Li Dian feel a little haggard when he saw it.

Li Dianxin said, "Fortunately, there are Bo Fu and Gong Jin, as well as Uncle Qian, otherwise I really wouldn't be able to take this guy alone." ”

"I told you to find two more generals to help you and study while fighting, can you listen to it? Forget it, hurry back to the east gate, if you let the enemy army go, let my military law deal with you! ”

Li Dian drove away Li Quan with a disgusted face, thinking about his aging uncle Li Qian and his young son, and he was also a little worried about the future of the Li family in Shanyang. Shaking his head, Li Dian threw these thoughts out of his mind.

"Well, let's concentrate on the battle in front of us. Pass the order, the whole army will have more dinner tonight, and prepare for me tomorrow to conquer Dongpingling in one fell swoop! ”
