On the seventh day, Yan Baihu finally couldn't sit still, he found Liu Zheng and wanted to take the initiative to start attacking the city gate.

Although there was no movement in the city, Yan Baihu didn't want to wait here, so he ran over to discuss with Liu Zheng whether he could send troops to launch an attack on Huiji City to increase his hope of attacking the city.

Liu Zheng seemed to have expected that Yan Baihu would not be able to bear the loneliness, so when Yan Baihu came to him, he immediately agreed to his request.

Yan Baihu originally thought that Liu Zheng would refuse his proposal, but he didn't expect that Liu Zheng would directly agree, and he was a little surprised for a while, so he discussed with Liu Zheng how to send troops to attack Huiji City.

And Liu Zheng seems to have thought about it a long time ago, when Yan Baihu mentioned it, he directly told Yan Baihu that if the four city gates attack separately and attack at the same time, the defenders in the city will definitely not be able to concentrate in one place and share each other, and a single city gate may only need to face the pressure of 5,000 soldiers and horses.

And in this way, the probability of breaking the city of Huiji can be greatly improved, even if you can't break the city, consume the physical strength of those soldiers and horses in the inner city, and let them run back and forth, it is also good, the consumption of physical strength requires more food to replenish, otherwise after a long time, the fighting spirit of these soldiers will decline.

Yan Baihu heard Liu Zheng's words, and it was not wrong, so he agreed to Liu Zheng's words, and at the same time, he also took the initiative to undertake the attack on three of the city gates.

After all, here at this time, the soldiers and horses under Yan Baihu's command occupy the majority, and Liu Zheng only has a small part of the soldiers and horses, and it is enough to hit a city gate.

The reason why Yan Baihu did this was also because Liu Zheng agreed to him at the beginning, after defeating Huiji City, Liu Zheng would give him the city, since in Yan Baihu's eyes, this Huiji City was already his, he naturally had to behave positively.

That's why they will take the initiative to undertake the attack work of the other three city gates.

Liu Zheng just smiled and did not refuse.

Anyway, Yan Baihu has to exert more strength, how could Liu Zheng take the initiative to be such a good person.

After waiting for a while, when Yan Baihu's men and horses really began to launch an attack on Huiji City, he slowly asked Gan Ning to light up the trebuchet prepared in advance.

Anyway, it was just a feint, and Liu Zheng didn't plan to send his soldiers to death immediately, just to attract firepower, a few trebuchets were enough.

After a few words in Gan Ning's ear, Liu Zheng continued to sleep in the camp.

Soon, the sound of trebuchets bombing the castle tower was heard outside.

The trebuchet was made a few days ago, Gan Ning led someone to make it, although the newly made trebuchet must not be as powerful as Liu Zheng brought from Jiaozhou at the beginning, and the accuracy is also a little biased, but Liu Zheng is not completely for the siege, he only needs to make some movements, so that Yan Baihu understands that he is working hard to help him attack the city.

Of more than 10,000 soldiers and horses, Liu Zheng divided 8,000 and stood head-on under the city of Huiji, waving his flag and shouting, but he did not attack directly, but blindly used trebuchets to bomb.

The bombardment was carried out every three or five minutes, and the soldiers of Liu Xuanjun on the city tower could only be restrained by Liu Zheng, and they wanted to leave and were afraid that Liu Zheng's soldiers and horses would suddenly attack, and if they did not leave, a round of bombing every three minutes would make the soldiers on the city tower afraid.

If it hits, it will be a lot of casualties.

After more than a dozen rounds of projection, the stones prepared by Liu Zheng's side were almost used up, and Liu Zheng sent people to check on several other city gates, and saw that the battle on Yan Baihu's side was also coming to an end.

Yan Baihu's side, naturally, does not have much effect, although he has more than 20,000 people, attacking the city, but distributed in three city gates, on average, one city gate, not even 10,000 people, although the number of people is more than the soldiers defending the city, but there is not much advantage.

To attack the city with such a force, it is natural that it can only be hastily ended, and after some losses and defeats, he also feels sorry for his own troops and does not dare to continue the attack.

Two hours later, Yan Baihu came to Liu Zheng again and described to Liu Zheng the disadvantage of this attack.

And this is something that Liu Zheng has already thought of.

"Brother Yan, don't worry, this attack is not ineffective, soon you will find that there will be much fewer defenders on the city tower, and the people in the city should begin to be unable to suppress it."

"Why is that?"

Yan Baihu didn't know where Liu Zheng's confidence came from, and he was also curious about what Liu Zheng said, so he immediately asked.

"Actually, in the past few days, the city tower has not changed in the slightest, and I still noticed something wrong through observation."

"Oh?"

Liu Zheng explained to Yan Baihu, and as soon as he opened his mouth, he attracted Yan Baihu's attention, and immediately his face sank, and his eyes stared at Liu Zheng, wanting to see what Liu Zheng wanted to say.

"A few days ago, there were at least four or five thousand guards on the city tower, but as the time passed in the past few days, the guards on the city tower have been reduced by a part, although the number of people has not decreased much, but it is still obvious that the number of people is indeed small, why is the number of people decreasing."

Liu Zheng glanced at Yan Baihu, Yan Baihu was stunned and silent for a moment, as if he was thinking, but he still shook his head.

"I don't know."

"I think, I think, there are other places in this city that need to be used."

"And during this time, the only place where you may need to use troops is to suppress the unrest of the people in the city, and why are the people in turmoil, I don't think I need to explain this."

Liu Zheng didn't explain it too clearly to Yan Baihu, because only such an unclear appearance could make Liu Zheng more unfathomable in front of Yan Baihu.

Sure enough, as soon as Yan Baihu heard it, regardless of whether he understood it or not, he immediately showed a look of surprise and began to compliment Liu Zheng.

"Brother Liu, do you mean that there is already turmoil in this Huiji City?"

"Eight or nine is not far from ten, so we will continue to attack next, and keep attacking under the city, but we don't need to completely attack the city, just pretend to go up to test and tempt, if the defenders on the city tower counterattack vigorously, we will retreat, and continue to attack if we don't fight back, you know?"

"Okay, I'll do as you tell me and start doing it at once."

"Well, my side will continue to attack the city gate, in my opinion, in less than three days, this city will be broken by us."

Liu Zheng gave Yan Baihu a point in time, so that Yan Baihu suddenly saw hope.
