Youzhou City, the city wall is towering, and when I arrived at the edge of the city, I felt that the atmosphere was calm and there was a sense of depression.

Before the scouts of the vanguard arrived, they saw many enemy scouts outside the city, and in order not to startle the snakes, they chose not to risk their advances.

The scouts quickly passed the news back, and the waiters who stayed behind were to find another way to spread out and expand the scope of exploration, and they did not want to alarm the enemy spies on the Youzhou side.

The purpose is to find the enemy's main force of soldiers and horses, usually if the city is besieged, the enemy's main force will not exceed the target thirty miles away, especially Youzhou City, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and will not station the main force too far.

The scouts sent by Gao Cheng are all adapted from his personal guards, equipped with special equipment, so that people will not think they are soldiers at first sight.

Their weapons are hidden in special equipment, which greatly reduces the possibility of being seen.

In addition to not being easily identified, the horses carry equipment that allows them to face any harsh environment at the moment, even the food is specially crafted to survive in the wild for a long time when necessary.

The most important people, the scouts who have been selected, are very bright-minded, know how to improvise, and know that obtaining information is more valuable than their hard work.

When they reached the range of the enemy's scouts, they all chose to hide and observe secretly.

Li De got the news as soon as possible that Youzhou City was besieged by the enemy, and the situation was unknown.

"Who of you knows about the situation of the guards in Youzhou City?" Li De asked a few lieutenants.

"By asking Baixin, who fled along the way, I learned that the guard was the young son of the Luo family, and Luo Yi held on, and there were less than a thousand soldiers and horses in the city." Wei Li said.

"The city walls of Youzhou City are towering, comparable to the city gates, as long as the food and grass in the city are enough to resist for a while." Elevation said.

"It's no fun, the people who fled have said that the guards led by Luo Yi originally had two thousand, but now half of them have been lost, and there is also a shortage of food and clothing in the city, otherwise they would not have hurried to flee for their lives." Wei Li continued.

"Luo Song, do you have anything to do with the Luo family in Youzhou City?" Li De asked suddenly.

Luo Song was silent and shook his head, he knew why Li De asked like this, he thought it would be related to the same surname Luo, but in fact he didn't, he had long heard that the Luo family in Youzhou was also a general, and the children of the Luo family were both civil and military, perhaps because of the same surname, there was a good feeling.

"Dudu, the last general is not related to the Luo family."

Li De did not continue to talk about this issue, but continued: "The situation is unknown, if you want to know what the situation is, you must know what happened in Youzhou City, so that people can make up a caravan......

After Li De finished talking about the plan, Wei Li immediately said: "This kind of thing of being a businessman will bear the brunt in the end, and people can recognize it as a businessman at a glance by changing their clothes." ”

"Okay, but remember not to let the enemy notice, lure the snake out of the hole, the key is the bait you made." Li De instructed.

"Don't worry, I have experience, in order not to show my stuffing, can I borrow a few female dependents from the governor, so that I can become a target for the enemy."

Wei Li smiled wickedly, and his heart was very much.

"Alright, I've got the idea, okay, let Matari and the others pass, it's more like a caravan."

"The Governor is wise!"

"Don't be a sycophant, things are going to be messed up, and it's good for you kid."

The vanguard team doesn't need to be dressed up at all to look like a caravan, and Wei Li has experience in this area, he was also in charge of selling supplies before, and the guards around him have experience.

Dressed in a different outfit, covered with robes, and weapons properly hidden in hidden places, Matari and other exotic customs stood out in the caravan.

Lead the snake out of the hole, no matter who the enemy is, the only purpose of besieging Youzhou City is to rob the finances, so they will not be stupid to occupy the city, then they can't hold it at all, and even if they hold the city, they don't know how to develop the city.

Even if the people are not spared, their gains will not increase, but will bring them more trouble, trap their movements, and reduce the number of times they plunder their wealth, and the gains outweigh the losses.

Therefore, the caravan is the greatest temptation for them, and they do not believe that the enemy will not appear when he sees a profit.

The scouts of the vanguard came back to report that there were many scouts outside Youzhou City, they should be looking for targets wantonly, and many lieutenants knew their style of doing things, and they had no strategy at all.

This siege of Youzhou City, besieging but not attacking is a new thing, we must know what the enemy wants to do.

He doesn't have a good idea of making comments without specific information.

On the road leading to Youzhou, the caravan of Weili numbered two hundred, the caravan carriage exceeded thirty, many fur goods were open, and there were thirty guards around to protect them, the difference was that they only carried weapons and no armor, and they were all dressed in ordinary coarse robes.

At first glance, people can tell that it is the escort of the caravan.

Caravans of long-distance freight are not without combat effectiveness, and even horse bandits will only act if they find out the situation.

On the road thirty miles away from Youzhou, from the appearance of the caravan, there were fast horse scouts constantly passing the news, and the scouts of the vanguard also moved, they all hid in the shadows, observing the movements of the scouts.

Route your message through local scouts and map out the scope of your next exploration.

Soon, a group of five or six hundred soldiers and horses slowly came.

Scouts hiding in the shadows are observing, and they are probing through the observation holes of leather sleeping bags in the dirt, and they are so hidden that people have nothing to say.

The enemy's horses did not look particularly obvious, and it could be seen that they belonged to the kind of horses with strong staying power, and their clothing was clearly different from that of the Turks.

The various robes and generals' costumes all look very special embroidered totems, and the scouts determined that they were Northern Barbarians after seeing them.

Unlike the Turks, their tribe was small in number, but the men of the tribe were brave and warlike, and their equestrian skills were even better than those of the Turks.

It was mainly active in the northern Liaobei region, and was a fierce enemy like the Turkic soldiers.

Five or six hundred cavalry had just passed by, and the vanguard scouts had left the observation point and hurried back to report the news, and by the time Li De received the news, the caravan in Weili had already traveled another five kilometers.

The enemy's cavalry had already set their sights on them, and the delay in action was to divide the troops to block the rear road of the caravan, and it was impossible to escape from the battle.

The horses' hooves were clanging, and without the guards noticing, a large number of cavalry appeared in several directions at the same time, rushing towards them.

"I'll go, good fast cavalry."

Wei Li was shocked, it was the first time he had seen such a fast cavalry, and then he looked at the other party's array, which seemed to be out of order, but all of them were Xiao Yong's soldiers, and their momentum was not much better than that of flying horses and leopard horses.
