Chapter 505: Plans for Each Other
In Xianyang, Chang'an's Junhou Mansion, more than a dozen black ice platform spies covered in blood were sitting or lying in the courtyard, and the doctor of the black ice platform was bandaging their wounds.
Zhao Que was wiping his long sword in the courtyard, he was also covered in blood, obviously they had executed some cruel character just now.
Zhao Que put away the long sword that was wiped clean, and asked expressionlessly: When you came back, you weren't followed by the tail, right? ”
"Don't worry, Lord Zhao, we know the rules, the brother who was followed by the tail, even if he dies outside, will not lead people here." A spy from the Black Ice Platform replied.
Xianyang City, at the North City Gate.
Dozens of mangled corpses were neatly stacked on the ground, blood already soaking the ground. The corpses died in a horrific manner, each with dozens of wounds on their bodies, all of which were apparently hacked to death by the sword.
"Childe, just now these people forcibly approached the forbidden area of the city gate, and the corpses are all here." Wu Guang pointed to the corpse and replied cautiously.
"This pile of corpses is your explanation to me, alive, I want to live." Hu Hai roared.
Fortunately, Feng Zai is still a particular person, and just as Hu Hai was angry, Feng Zai, who was inspecting the corpse, spoke.
"Childe, they are all people from the Black Ice Terrace, and they won't leave a living mouth when they do things." Feng Zheng exonerated Wu Guang.
It's not that Feng Zai is making excuses for Wu Guang, what Feng Zai said is the truth. The people of the Black Ice Platform are engaged in professional intelligence and assassination work, and they are the dead soldiers of Great Qin. When they carry out their mission, they will never leave a hole alive and fall into the hands of the enemy, and when there is really no escape, they will inevitably choose to commit suicide.
"Black Ice Terrace, Zhao Que's people?" Hu Hai asked with a hideous face.
"Zhao Que is Li Chen's loyal dog, and now that Li Chen is outside the city, it is normal for him to engage in wind and rain at this time." Feng Zheng groaned.
"Li Chen came too fast, and now it makes us passive." Zhao Gao on the side said.
"Fusu has been deposed, and although there are some remnants of soldiers and horses in the city, there are no people who can convince the people to gather this force together. Xianyang City has high walls and thick walls, as long as we guard the city gate, Li Chen will definitely not be able to attack it. It's just that it's not a way to take it off, we must capture the imperial city as soon as possible and control that one in our hands in order to take the initiative. Feng Zai said without hesitation.
After listening to Feng Zai's words, Hu Hai looked at Zhao Gao, only to see Zhao Gao nodding slightly, obviously agreeing with what Feng Zao said.
At the same time, in the hall of Chang'an Junhou Mansion, Zhao Que was holding a hand-drawn defense map explaining something to Ying Chengjiao.
"It doesn't work to dig a tunnel to enter the city, Feng Zai, this kid doesn't eat rice, they have already put our trick in place, there is an upside-down vat every ten zhang, and no sound can hide their ears."
"Chang'anjun, you see, this is the northern city, and there are at least more than 10,000 soldiers and horses stationed on this city wall. Our men are now hidden in various parts of the city, and they cannot be assembled during the day. If you want to rush to seize the city gate, you can only fight at night. Zhao Que pointed to this map of the defense line that the Black Ice Platform spies exchanged for their lives, and said solemnly.
......
......
"With these tanks, not only can't we dig tunnels, even if our soldiers want to get close to the city wall silently, I'm afraid it's impossible. This Feng Tribulation is not simple, and the layout of this line of defense can be described as leaky. After listening to Zhao Que's words, Ying Chengjiao sighed.
Zhao Que has never fought a big battle, but he can win Cheng Jiao, but he is a person who fights horses. With this city defense map, Ying Chengjiao knew that it would be a tough battle to capture the city.
"Since the layout of the defense line is not leaky, I don't know if this person guarding the defense line can leave us with some flaws." Zhao Que groaned.
"Oh, what do you mean by that?" Ying Chengjiao asked.
"According to the intelligence spied by the brothers, Wu Guang, the guard of the northern city, is a greedy and lustful person, I don't know if we have a chance to hold this person and let him help us open the city gate." Zhao Que said.
For the control of the war, Zhao Que is naturally far inferior to winning Chengjiao. But for the grasp of human nature, Zhao Que is much more proficient.
"I'm going to do it tomorrow night, so let's do our best. If you can hold Wu Guang, it's best, if you can't do it, you can only forcibly take the city. Ying Chengjiao said.
"I'll keep an eye on Wu Guang and see if there's a chance to hold him." Zhao Que said that, and then took people to leave Chang'an Junfu.
After Zhao Que left, Ying Chengjiao looked up at the sky and sighed: "Hey, it's a pity that it's the middle of winter, otherwise if there is a heavy rain, it will be able to break Feng Zheng's big tank array." ”
With Li Chen's troops approaching the city, the atmosphere of the entire Xianyang City became solemn. Not only Ying Chengjiao is discussing countermeasures, but Hu Hai is still discussing countermeasures.
"We have to adjust our countermeasures, we can't drag on like this, the more we drag on, the more we will be sober." Zhao Gao looked at the few people in front of him and said softly, his tone solemn.
The original situation was that they trapped the comatose First Emperor in the Imperial City, and then occupied Xianyang City. But now, it's the other way around. Although Fusu was arrested by them, now Yingyue is nowhere to be found, and the first emperor is still safe in the imperial city. They didn't have any hole cards in their hands to restrain Li Chen, and now they were blocked by Li Chen in Xianyang City.
"Although there is only one army of Li Chen in the city now, don't forget that there is also a Han Xin. You know, Han Xin's army was tricked out of the city by us. Once Li Chen's order arrived, I was afraid that Han Xin would also turn back. When the time comes, we will face an army of more than 100,000 people. Feng Zheng reminded.
Hu Hai was pacing back and forth, a little flustered and at a loss.
"Lord Zhao, Lord Feng, we just don't have enough hole cards in our hands now, and we can't hold Li Chen. But what about the biggest card we have in our hand? Chen Sheng said, pointing in the direction of the palace.
"Since ancient times, sieges have been three times and ten times the siege. Although the imperial city is not as good as the Xianyang city wall, if you want to capture the imperial palace, you need at least five times as many troops. Feng Zheng groaned.
In the imperial city, Li You still has at least 5,000 to 8,000 troops in his hands, and if he wants to take the palace, he needs at least 30,000 or 40,000 troops. However, if the troops were transferred to attack the imperial city, the defense of Xianyang City would inevitably fail.
"The Imperial City hasn't been purchased for seven or eight days?" Coldly, Chen Sheng suddenly said something inspiring.
"Smack."
"Yes, there is not much food in the Imperial City. On weekdays, we have to buy fresh vegetables and meat almost every day, but since we blocked the Imperial City, the Imperial City has not bought them for many days. Zhao Gao slapped his thigh and exclaimed.
This is really a fan of the authorities, Zhao Gao, the person who is most familiar with the palace, did not expect this point, but he still had to be pointed out by Chen Sheng.
