After Liu Zheng listened to the report of his subordinates, he actually understood what Sun Jian wanted to do.

"Gan Ning, immediately order to go down and let our people pull out the trebuchet we made a few days ago!"

It has been several days since Liu Zheng's people arrived here to set up a camp.

They haven't been idle for the past few days, and naturally they have been preparing to make trebuchets and other weapons to attack Huiji City.

Their original purpose was also to attack Huiji City, but it was a pity that the trebuchet that was originally intended to be used to attack Huiji City might now be pulled out in advance to deal with Sun Jian and others.

Sun Jian is now surrounding his camp, although he has not yet made a move, but Liu Zheng guesses that Sun Jian should be waiting for reinforcements, as long as the reinforcements from Huijicheng arrive, so that Sun Jian's people have more men than Liu Zheng's soldiers and horses, Sun Jian will definitely make a move, and Liu Zheng's plan at this time is to attack Sun Jian before he makes a move.

He wanted to catch Sun Jian off guard and lose part of Sun Jian's strength first. When the time comes, even if Sun Jian has reinforcements, he will not dare to act rashly.

After Liu Zheng's orders, more than a dozen trebuchets that had been prepared a long time ago were pulled out by Gan Ning's people at this time.

Because there was a wall outside the camp to block it, Sun Jian and the others outside didn't know about it at this time. There were more than a dozen trebuchets here, surrounding them front and back.

Liu Zheng led people to start debugging, aligning the angle, and determining that one shell could hit more enemies.

After these things were almost done, Liu Zheng led people to the entrance of the camp.

When Liu Zheng appeared at the gate of the camp, Sun Jian and the others outside naturally found out quickly.

However, before Sun Jian could speak, he was already attracted by Liu Zheng's first opening.

"Sun Jian, I said that you suddenly sent people to surround my camp, I think the person you sent to cut off my grain route has already returned."

Liu Zheng opened his mouth, so that Sun Jian immediately focused his attention on Liu Zheng's body.

"It seems that you already know that your grain has been robbed, since you know it, then there is nothing to hide, surrender Liu Zheng, for your own sake, I can leave you a whole corpse."

Sun Jian was a little proud at this time, because he had been at a disadvantage in the confrontation with Liu Zheng, only this time, he cut off Liu Zheng's grain channel, although he still didn't know how many days of food Liu Zheng had in his hand, but according to the normal marching route, Liu Zheng had been out of Jiaozhou for more than two months, even if Liu Zheng brought more grain.

But there must be not much left to eat in two months, and the remaining food is only enough for Liu Zheng's 20,000 troops to eat for a few more days.

As long as Liu Zheng is surrounded here for a few days, even if he does not take the initiative to fight, Liu Zheng's people will definitely start a mutiny due to lack of food.

Maybe Sun Jian can defeat Liu Zheng without spending a single soldier.

After listening to Sun Jian's words, Liu Zheng was not angry.

Instead, he continued to respond calmly to Sun Jian.

"Yes, Brother Sun Jian, this time I miscalculated, it was the first time I encountered such a thing as being robbed of the grain road, but you also gave me a reminder that I must pay attention to the grain road next time."

"Hmph, what are you still loading here, your food must be insufficient, in my opinion, at most seven days, your soldiers and horses will run out of food, now you either run away or go out of the city to fight, you can choose yourself."

Out of the city battle, Sun Jian's soldiers and horses were about the same as Liu Zheng, although they were about the same, but Sun Jian's side was full of 20,000 people, and Liu Zheng's side originally had 18,000 people, but in the past two months, in the south of Huiji County, those Shanyue tribes were conquered, so that Liu Zheng's soldiers and horses had some losses.

So although it is claimed to be close to 20,000 horses, it is actually only 15,000.

There is still a small gap between Bing Ma and Sun Jian, and Sun Jian is outside the camp, so he has arranged heavy defensive measures, and when he goes out to fight with Sun Jian, Liu Zheng's manpower will definitely suffer.

And Sun Jian also knows that Liu Zheng has always been a cautious person, and he will not attack easily for this kind of battle that is not too sure.

In Sun Jian's heart, he decided that Liu Zheng must be trying to find a way to retreat.

After all, Sun Jian only surrounded the camp on three sides, leaving one camp, it was the south, if Liu Zheng escaped from the camp, he would definitely go to the south, and the chance of escape was very high.

But Sun Jian was wrong, Liu Zheng didn't think about escaping at all at this time, he came out, just to chat with Sun Jian, to make sure that Sun Jian was outside, and then let himself operate the trebuchet's soldiers, clearly know where Sun Jian was, and then attack.

"Escape? It's impossible to escape, it's impossible to run away in this life, and I'm out to talk to you, but I just want to tell you that I'm about to start attacking. ”

Liu Zheng directly told Sun Jian about his plan.

Sun Jian sneered, for Liu Zheng's words, he only thought that he was talking big and forcibly calmed himself down.

A few days ago, after Sun Jian got the news that Cheng Pu and Han Dang had robbed Liu Zheng's grain road, he immediately sent soldiers and horses to Huiji County for help.

According to the time, I am afraid that Liu Miao at this time has already prepared reinforcements and is on his way here.

After all, this place is only two hours away from the county seat of Huiji.

They can only continue to delay here for an hour or two, and when the reinforcements from Huiji County arrive, when the time comes, 40,000 soldiers and horses will attack with all their might, and even if Liu Zheng wants to escape, he has no chance.

"Looks like you don't believe I'm going to fight you?"

Liu Zheng saw that Sun Jian didn't take any action, but looked at him with disdain, and didn't say anything more to Sun Jian.

Directly turned around, glanced at Gan Ning in the camp, and then waved at Gan Ning.

Signaling that Gan Ning could do it.

Gan Ning, who had already received Liu Zheng's order, was waiting for Liu Zheng to give a signal, and when he saw that Liu Zheng had finally sent him a signal, where was there anything to hesitate, he went directly to the battle in person and began to swing these trebuchets.

Gan Ning was very curious about the power of the trebuchet, because this thing was made up by Liu Zheng when he attacked Linyi Kingdom, and Gan Ning was not present at that time, but he had heard about the power of the trebuchet, but he had not seen it with his own eyes.

Now that he finally had the opportunity to see the power of the trebuchet, how could he not be excited.

As Gan Ning's launch order was issued, more than a dozen trebuchets immediately began to project unscrupulously at this time.
