Chapter 787: A plan within a plan
After realizing that something was wrong, Kuai Liang's face immediately changed.
"Not good!"
"My lord, what's wrong?"
The general standing beside Kuai Liang was stunned for a moment, and after seeing Kuai Liang's expression change, he immediately asked Kuai Liang.
"We've been tricked, we've been tricked!"
Kuai Liang immediately shouted loudly at this general, and at the same time, the expression on Kuai Liang's face had become very ugly.
But the general, as well as the others on the city tower at this time, were at a loss, and they didn't know what was going on.
Kuai Liang didn't have time to explain anything at this time, and immediately issued his order loudly.
"A few of you, quickly, quickly lead 3,000 soldiers and horses to the other city gates to help!"
At this time, after Kuai Liang saw that the soldiers and horses outside the city were constantly decreasing, he had already determined that these horses did not plan to attack this Runan City at all.
The reason why these people shouted and shouted under this city, but did not attack for a long time, was that they did it deliberately, but in fact, they were attacking the west.
On the surface, it seems that he is preparing to attack the south city gate, so that Kuai Liang will station most of the defensive forces in the city at the south city gate, but in fact, these Liu Zheng's soldiers and horses want to attack other city gates.
After the defenders on this side of the south city gate are pinned, the other city gates will become the key to breaking this Runan city.
Kuai Liang, who understood this, thought of the fact that the enemy army at this city gate had never attacked, but the number of soldiers and horses was getting smaller and smaller, and he was even more convinced of this.
I just thought that I had fallen for the other party's plan.
After his face changed greatly, Kuai Liang immediately ordered these defenders on his city tower to let them bring the men and horses of the south gate to support the other city gates.
At the south gate of the city, Kuailiang arranged 5,000 people.
At this time, Kuai Liang was worried that something would happen to the other city gates, so he directly dispatched all the 3,000 soldiers and horses of the 5,000 people to support the other city gates.
Kuai Liang was still not at ease, so he personally went to the city tower, looking for the soldiers and horses that left on both sides, and walked to the other city gates.
Liu Pet under the city, after waving the flag and shouting for a while, noticed the change in the number of people on the city tower.
After Kuai Liang's 3,000 men left the South City Gate, there were obviously fewer people on the South City Gate, and as soon as these people left, Liu Pet was immediately excited.
"Prime Minister, they have been tricked!"
Liu Pet immediately said a word to Luo Jun beside him.
When Luo Jun saw this, he immediately smiled.
"Your Majesty, we are not in a hurry, their people have just left, we are not in a hurry to attack, wait first, wait for the people who have just left on the city tower, go farther, and then we will attack."
Luo Jun quickly reminded Liu Pet by Liu Pet's side.
Liu Pet naturally understood, and nodded immediately.
"Well, Prime Minister, I understand, when their people are completely far away, we will launch an attack, presumably there are only three or four thousand defenders on this city tower now, this little man, with my ability, I can still take down this city."
Liu Pet is a little confident, the reason why he is sure that he can take this Runan City is that he thought of a plan.
Originally, there were only 20,000 people for Liu Pet, and Liu Pet was not too sure, but after knowing that there were still 40,000 people around Liu Zheng, Liu Pet had confidence.
came up with such a plan.
Liu Chong asked Sun Jian and Zhou Yu to cooperate with him, and began to garrison troops at the south city gate, and then continued to let Sun Jian and Zhou Yu take their men and horses to other city gates to get closer.
The reason why he didn't attack the city and deliberately set up a suspicious array was because he knew that Kuailiang would think a lot.
During the siege for several days, Liu Zhong and the others did not attack, and Kuai Liang was just when he was puzzled.
Now that he has noticed the movement of troops and horses at the south city gate, he will definitely believe that these people outside the city want to attack not the south city gate, but other city gates, and now the suspicious soldiers here are trying to lure him into being fooled.
At this time, Kuai Liang was really fooled, this is the plan of Liu Pet and others.
Liu Zhong and the others deliberately let Kuai Liang get into the scheme, and what he actually wanted to hit was the South City Gate.
The reason for this was to allow Kuai Liang to transfer all the soldiers and horses at the south gate to other city gates.
It didn't take long for Liu Chong to finally feel that the time was ripe and he began to attack the city.
The 20,000 army was outside the southern city gate, eager to try, and with Liu Chong's order, the 20,000 army began to attack.
Boom, boom, boom.
The trebuchet, which had been prepared for a long time, began to launch the projection at this time.
A round of boulders was thrown up, and then quickly smashed into the tower of Runan City.
These defenders on the tower of Runan City have been nervous, and at this moment, when they finally saw those men and horses under the city start to attack, their expressions also changed greatly, and they became even more ugly than just now.
But he also defended immediately.
"The enemy is attacking! The enemy is attacking! Hurry up and defend, everyone! ”
The defenders on the tower immediately began to shout, and the remaining 3,000 men and horses moved quickly. Archery for archery, stone-throwing for stone-throwing.
A great war broke out here.
The 20,000 soldiers and horses under Liu Chong's command are still well-trained, after all, Liu Pet has personally trained the men and horses for a long time, although he has no experience on the battlefield, but the previous Huainan War has also given these horses some actual combat ability, and they are not as afraid as those novices for attacking the city.
An army of 20,000 attacked a city wall, and the ladder alone and some siege equipment could make many defenders unable to deal with it.
A round of trebuchet projection, hitting those defenders on the city tower, did not dare to show their heads easily, the ladder was erected at this time, under the personal leadership of Chen Wang Liu Chong.
An army of 20,000 began to attack the city of Runan.
The momentum was huge and the attack was decisive, although Liu Zheng did not personally participate in this fight, he could also witness that these people under Liu Chong were all some troops who were not afraid of death, but they were much more powerful than the Yellow Turban Army under Liu Zheng back then.
As the battle progressed, the 3,000 defenders were able to resist one or two at the beginning, but the siege of 20,000 troops was not something that only 3,000 men and horses could withstand.
What's more, the siege of the city a few days ago had already made these defenders look nervous and highly concentrated for a few days, and when the big battle finally came, some people couldn't hold their nerves and had collapsed.
The battle on the side of the south city gate responded, but the other city gates did not attack, and Sun Jian and Zhou Yu did not have any remnants as agreed.
But more than 10,000 Chen soldiers were outside the city, and Kuai Liang in the city didn't dare to act rashly.
He was afraid that if he sent his troops and horses back to the southern gates, a great battle would soon break out at the other gates.
On the contrary, Kuai Liang will also think that this is a deliberate act by the South City Gate, the purpose is to let them run back and forth, so as to exhaust the three armies.
