Hundreds of cavalry rushed on the official road, and thousands of iron hooves stepped on the dust.

Hou Tong rode his horse from the rear and shouted, "Lord Sima, look! Ahead is Neihuang County! ”

Nan Ying stared at it, and sure enough, he saw the outline of a city looming in the distance, and he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Order!" Slow down! Let the soldiers relax! ”

Hou Tong rode with him and said with a smile: "Don't worry, my lord! It's a good thing that you made us tie this rope on the fly! How much easier are the soldiers made tenfold? If you had changed to a normal day, you would have been exhausted from running dozens of miles in one breath! ”

Nan Ying calculated silently in his heart, and said in his mouth: "How much time is there before General Lu launches a general attack?" ”

Hou Tong looked at the sky and said, "There should be two and a half days!" ”

Nanying nodded: "Very good!" The enemy army is all infantry, and it will take more than a day to reach Neihuang at the earliest, and even if they immediately enter the siege without rest, we have won half a day more than originally planned! ”

Hou Tong said sincerely: "The last general is really convinced!" Originally, it was thought that the adults would set up ambushes along the way, block the enemy army step by step, and then lure the enemy army to Neihuang, so although it can still delay the pace of the enemy army, it will definitely suffer a lot of losses! But now the adults are not harmed, but they have achieved their goal! ”

Nan Ying smiled and said: "Hou Tong, although you are not Ben General's direct subordinate, Ben Jiang still wants to warn you that fighting is not completely dependent on hard work, and it is impossible to have no losses!" But how to exchange the minimum loss for the maximum result is what we, the generals, should pay the most attention to! ”

Hou Tong said respectfully: "The last general will be taught!" ”

He thought about it, and couldn't help but say again: "There is still something unknown about the last general!" Adults have several opportunities to kill the enemy's commander, which is a miracle! But why did you let him go? ”

Nanying smiled: "Not bad! To be able to think of raising this question, you kid is not confused! But you should know that the task of our army is to lure the enemy deep and make General Lu's army annihilate it in one fell swoop! If I kill that Yan Li, it is indeed a meritorious service, but if the enemy army is killed and the enemy army is dispersed, then our army's total annihilation plan will never be achieved again! As a general, how can the overall situation be abolished because of the small for a while! ”

Hou Tong was shocked, and said with a respectful look on his face: "The last general is really convinced!" ”

He suddenly hesitated: "I wonder if the end will be blessed to join the adult's command?" ”

Nanying smiled and said, "As a forbidden army of the fifth school, how can you secretly invest in the pearl?" ”

Hou Tong shook his head and said: "My lord should be able to see that the last general is telling the truth!" ”

Nan Ying hesitated slightly, nodded and said, "Okay!" If you and I are still alive after this battle, I will personally negotiate with your captain! ”

Hou Tongxi said: "In this way, the battle of the last general is absolutely undead!" ”

The two laughed together.

While talking and laughing, the team had quickly approached Neihuang County, Nan Ying's eyes suddenly widened, and he blurted out: "My mother! What kind of big battle is this going on? ”

Hou Tong and the cavalry also vaguely saw the situation in the distance, and opened their mouths together, speechless!

On the side of the long city wall, both above and below the city, hundreds of people and Han soldiers are gathering, they are working hard with all kinds of equipment, like dense ant colonies, surging back and forth.

Nanying said in a daze: "Damn! Looks like they're doing a better job than we do! Walk! Let's take a look! ”

The Neihuang defenders had apparently noticed the arrival of the Southern Eagle as well, and several cavalrymen met them and led them towards the north gate.

Ma Jun and Gao Feng hurried over, and rushed to the south eagle with joy.

Suddenly, the soldiers and civilians near and far let out a huge cheer, which startled Nanying and the others in a daze.

I saw that a large amount of river water suddenly poured into the three ditches that had just been dug outside the city wall, and quickly filled the entire ditch.

Nan Ying was shocked and said: "It's a lie! How could it take only a day and a half to dig a few ditches and bring in water from the river! ”

Ma Jun came to the Southern Eagle Horse, took the reins of the horse with his own hand, and said with a smile: "How can adults despise me so much? It is not impossible for 20,000 people to work for a day and break through the water of Huangze and introduce the moat! ”

"Twenty thousand!" Nan Ying was dumbfounded and said, "Didn't you only accept a thousand defenders?" How can you get 20,000 people to join in willingly? ”

Gao Feng smiled and continued: "As soon as Ma Junhou arrived here, he immediately organized a thousand defenders into the army, and urgently recruited three thousand people. At the same time, we also spread the word around the city that the Yellow Turban Army was coming here to slaughter the city, and the people were of course gathered to defend their homeland! ”

Hou Tong gasped and said, "My lord! It turns out that these people have the ability to make things up more than adults! ”

Nan Ying glared at him angrily, and Hou Tong was so frightened that he immediately shut up.

Ma Jun smiled and said: "Not only that, but we also forced the county order to open the city treasury and distribute food to the people and soldiers who participated in strengthening the city defense, so there is no problem in terms of people's hearts!" ”

Nanying's eyes lit up, and he praised: "Well done!" Our army is not holding on for a long time, what is the use of asking for so much food! Therefore, the distribution of surplus grain is a good way to stabilize the people's hearts! You go and tell the county order, if the court blames it, it will be borne by the general! ”

He looked up suddenly, but saw a long wooden frame neatly nailed to the battlements of the city wall, and said in amazement: "What is this for?" ”

Ma Jun said mysteriously: "Of course it works!" Adults will know when they arrive! ”

Nan Ying suddenly remembered something and hurriedly said, "What about your secret weapon?" Has it ever been made? ”

Ma Jun stretched out two fingers with a sad face.

Nan Ying's heart was cold, and he smiled forcefully: "It's okay! Two is enough! I knew there must be a shortage of materials to take advantage of in this city........."

Ma Jun interrupted: "Now there are only two, but don't worry, my lord, now that the moat has been built, I can already draw out all the craftsmen in the city." When the enemy arrives tomorrow, I will have twenty of them!" ”

Nanying said in disbelief ecstasy: "It's really fake! ”

Ma Jun grinned and said, "My lord! Have you forgotten? Everywhere I go, I always carry a lot of beef tendon with me! ”

Nanying looked up to the sky and laughed: "Good! Looks like heaven is going to help me! ”

He shouted, "Herald! All the cavalry gave up rest and immediately moved the people of all the villages outside the city to the city! Possess spare manpower and move everything that can be removed from outside the city into the city! ”

Gao Feng was stunned and said, "My lord! What is everything that can be removed? Please give us clear instructions! ”

Nan Ying slapped him on the head and scolded: "Pots and pans, bricks, wood and stones, even a tree, cut them down for me and bring them back!" Also, fill in all the wells for me! ”

Ma Jun blurted out: "No! Such a strong wall and clear field will only make the enemy army worried, maybe they will give up the siege and retreat, so will our army not work for nothing? ”

Nanying patted Ma Jun on the shoulder and said, "You're right!" But that's just the usual situation, and now it's a different situation. The Yellow Turban Commander almost died at our hands and is now on the verge of madness. If we don't put on the appearance of a decisive battle, but instead look fearless, what do you think he will think? ”

Ma Jun's eyes lit up.

Nan Ying sneered: "I just want to put on a false impression of being isolated and helpless, so that the Yellow Turban Army mistakenly thinks that we are just trying to survive and defend the lonely city, so that they can rest assured that they will boldly besiege Neihuang!" ”

The blazing bonfires were lit one after another, and the Yellow Turban sergeants ran for half a day, and finally set up camp with all their strength.

Yan Li sat by a campfire, his face twisted and hideous as the dancing flames lit up.

A subordinate general cautiously said: "Da Qu Shuai! Are we really going to attack Neihuang County? ”

Yan Li didn't answer, just nodded.

The other henchman said bluntly: "Da Qu Shuai, we have a major task and we cannot afford to lose!" If Daqu Shuai can't swallow this evil breath, the last general can lead his troops and horses to attack Neihuang, and he will be ashamed of Daqu Shuai! ”

He paused before saying, "If you miss a major event because of this, the last general is worried that General Digong will blame Daqu Shuai for this!" ”

Yan Li smiled dumbly and said, "What? Do you think Ben will be abolished for personal gain? ”

The general said in a panic: "The last general will not dare!" Just .........."

Yan Li waved his hand and chuckled, "It seems that none of you understand the true intentions of this general!" ”

Yijiang was surprised: "It turns out that Da Qu Shuai has other plans!" It's ridiculous that the last general and the others really think that Daqu Shuai is blinded by anger! ”

Yan Li shook his head and said, "Actually, I was really dizzy before!" But after thinking about it, the more I think about it, the more wrong it becomes! Because everything came too strangely! ”

"Trap, maybe a trap!" He said solemnly, "A small county lieutenant dares to lead a mere 300 men to stop my 30,000 troops!" Don't you think it's incredible? Along the way, the counties and counties that our army passed, the defenders of the city either fell in the wind or could not hold out, where have you seen such a bold and reckless person? There must be a demon when things are impermanent, and I will suspect that there is fraud in it! ”

The first general couldn't help but say: "Since Daqu Shuai also suspects that it is a trap, why does our army still want to march to Neihuang?" ”

Yan Li glared and said, "What do you know?" What if it's not a trap? Then these people have mastered the movements of our army, and there are hundreds of mobile cavalry, in case they warn all the way to all the cities in front of our army, will our army be struggling in the future! ”

The general listened even more dumbfounded, stuttering, "If it's not a trap? So, what should our army do? ”

"Eat them in one bite, of course!" Yan Li said if he had nothing to do, "You can kill your mouth." They can restore the morale of the army that has been weakened by them, and they can also replenish supplies from Neihuang County, so how can they not do such a triple-win? ”

He said confidently in his tone: "The general has already checked the map in detail, the population of Huang County is less than 30,000, the city is low and the walls are broken, and the west and south sides are surrounded by Huang Ze, our army can concentrate superior forces and forcibly break the city from the east and north!" ”

The henchman replied, "But this move still violates the original marching plan, so what? ”

Yan Li smiled and said, "It's okay! Plans are meant to be tailored to people, time, and place! Why not? ”

He stretched out his hand to unfold the map, and pointed by the light of the fire: "You see, according to the original plan of our army, first take Chaoge and then go all the way south, although the shortest route is taken, but it will pass through the three cities of Jixian, Huojia, and Wude to reach Huaixian!" Along the way, it is necessary to continuously attack the city, and it will be delayed for a long time! ”

All the generals blurted out together: "Dare to ask how Daqu Shuai will change his route?" ”

Yan Li said confidently: "If we attack Neihuang, which is weakly defended, first, then our army can go west, and then go all the way south along the Taihang Mountains, and directly take Huai County after the shooting dogs gather!" Although the road is a little more difficult, it avoids the Han army city and their eyes and ears, and it will definitely save time and effort! ”

He said proudly: "This Huai County is the county of Hanoi, and there is abundant money and food in the city, so it is really the best supply place for our army!" When our army's divine soldiers descend from the sky, this city should be able to fall in a battle! ”

The henchman will understand, nodded and said, "Daqu Shuai is really smart!" So the biggest question now is whether Neihuang County is an ambush set by the Han army! ”

Yan Li laughed and said, "That's right! So I have sent my best scouts to ride good horses during the day, and I am sure that the results will come soon! ”

As if to confirm his words, the sound of horses' hooves was heard in the darkness. Soon, a soldier came to the bonfire with a dusty face and saluted Yan Lishi: "Daqu Shuai, my subordinates are fortunate not to be dishonored!" ”

Yan Li couldn't wait to say: "It's been hard all the way, hurry up and come to the general!" ”

The yellow turban generals also pricked up their ears together.

The soldier said calmly: "My subordinates hung behind them all the way, and I saw that they really entered the Inner Yellow City!" ”

Yan Li said with joy on his face: "So what is the situation of Inner Huangcheng now?" ”

The soldier added: "Now that the city has been completely under martial law, the soldiers and civilians in the city are strengthening the city defenses, and sending a large number of people to collect materials outside the city, cut down trees, and block wells!" ”

All the generals blurted out together: "This is to clear the wilderness and fight to the death!" ”

Yan Li said solemnly: "Ben will come to you again, how many Han troops are there in the city?" ”

The soldier smiled and said: "Originally, my subordinates were shocked to see tens of thousands of people from a distance, but later, after careful observation by my subordinates, I found that those people were all ordinary people except for two or three thousand Han soldiers!" ”

Yan Li couldn't help laughing and said, "Okay! Ben really overestimated them! It seems that it is just a dying struggle! ”

He got up and shouted, "Pass my order!" After resting for three hours, the whole army immediately pulled out the camp and launched an all-out attack on Neihuang at noon tomorrow! ”
