When the soldiers of the Yan army heard Zhang Shumo's words, they looked a little disappointed. Luo Dian couldn't help but ask, "That's it?" Once or twice, the enemy may still be fooled, and after a long time, the enemy will naturally understand our plan, and he will definitely divide the troops into two, and we will not be able to take advantage of it at that time! ”

Zang Zhuo also added: "And if the enemy suddenly opens the door to meet the enemy after figuring out our plan, then we will make trouble when we divide our troops." ”

Zhang Shumo smiled: "No, Shen Lang doesn't dare!" After speaking, Zhang Shumo continued to talk about his plan.

"The enemy will never dare to fight tonight, and when it is daytime tomorrow, we will change another team to continue to harass them, and so we will harass the enemy day and night, and we will be able to launch the first attack during the day three days later! If the enemy divides the army into two according to General Luo, then the number of people on the enemy's wall will be less than half when we attack the city, even if they can gather men and horses soon, they will still panic, this is our chance! ”

"But what if the enemy army goes out of the city to meet the enemy while our army is harassing him? With half of our troops down, it's an opportunity for the enemy! Xu Jian asked.

Zhang Shumo shook his head with a smile: "I expected that Shen Lang would not dare to go out to meet the enemy!" ”

Looking at Zhang Shumo's confident smile, everyone was still puzzled, Zhang Shumo arched his hand towards Gongsun Luo, and then explained: "Your Highness, if there are enough soldiers in Shen Lang City, then he will never go to hastily recruit soldiers in such a short period of time. Since he did this, it means that the troops in Yangyuan City are definitely insufficient, and recruiting some new soldiers is just to scare our army! Just imagine, did Shen Lang dare to take a group of recruits out of the city to meet the enemy? In case it doesn't go well, we can take this opportunity to drive straight in! Shen Lang is a smart person and would never take such a risk. ”

When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but nod. Gongsun Luo clapped his hands: "Okay! The military advisor's analysis is reasonable, this plan is better than no plan! If you can't come up with a better plan, then act according to the strategy of the military advisor! ”

So, Xu Jian divided the army into two parts according to Zhang Shumo's strategy, one part was led by Zang Zhuo and Luo Dian, and the other part was led by Wen Hai and Miao Feng.

According to the plan, Zang and Luo's troops led their troops to Yangyuan City that night. The two deliberately ordered their subordinates not to light torches, and quietly approached Yangyuan City in the night.

When the distance from Yangyuan City was less than seventy zhang, the Yan army suddenly lit torches, set up a formation, and began to beat drums to attack the city!

Originally, the defenders of Yangyuan City were all worried, and when they saw the enemy army suddenly appearing under the city, they hurriedly reported to Shen Lang.

Shen Lang hadn't fallen asleep at this time, he couldn't help but laugh when he heard the drums outside the city: "The enemy really wants to attack the city at night, and today he will not come back!" After speaking, Shen Lang unhurriedly led his men to the city gate tower.

At this time, Cao Yun had already led the defenders in the city to guard the city wall as previously deployed. Seeing Shen Lang coming, Cao Yun hurriedly reported: "My lord, the enemy army has been beating drums for a long time, but there is no intention of attacking the city, will there be any fraud in this?" ”

Shen Lang looked at Yan Jun, because the night was too thick, Shen Lang could only see the torches dotted with stars. But according to the number of torches, Shen Lang could see at a glance that this was not all the men and horses of the Yan army.

So Shen Lang laughed out loud and said to Cao Yun: "General Cao, don't worry, the enemy army will not attack the city tonight!" Tell me that only half of the defenders will be left, and the rest will go back to rest! ”

Cao Yun was anxious after hearing this: "My lord, could this be the enemy's strategy?" If we just withdraw our troops, if the enemy wants to attack the city, then we won't have time to defend the city! ”

Shen Lang smiled and nodded: "That's right, this is the enemy's strategy, you look at the torches under the city, obviously the enemy army has not arrived, the enemy army wants to make our army tired of defense in this way, and wait for our army to relax before attacking!" So let's keep our spirits up and keep going with the enemy for a long time! ”

Cao Yun didn't expect Shen Lang's heart to be so big, and hurriedly said: "My lord, you can't judge the number of enemy troops just by the torches, what if the rest of the enemy army deliberately didn't light the torches?" ”

When Shen Lang heard this, the smile on his face froze. That's right, if this is the enemy's plan, then isn't he falling for the enemy's trick?

Thinking of this person, Shen Lang snorted heavily: "Okay, let's be cautious tonight, and after today, we can know what the enemy wants to do!" ”

So Shen Lang changed his order again, and the defenders of the city were cautious and guarded on the city wall all night!

By dawn, the drumming had finally stopped. With a little light, everyone finally saw the Yan army withdrawing.

Shen Lang couldn't help but yawn: "Ah! You see, I said that the enemy army is trying to drag down our army, right? Okay, leave the general people behind, and go to rest for the rest! After speaking, Shen Lang waved Cao Yun's shoulder.

Cao Yun also breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, he didn't expect that Shen Lang really guessed correctly, but Cao Yun did not regret that he had stayed in vain all night, at this time, he was still careful to sail the ship of ten thousand years!

So, Cao Yun arranged for his lieutenant to continue to defend the city with half of the defenders, and he took the rest of the people to withdraw and rest.

When Shen Lang returned to the mansion, the sky was just bright. Shen Lang looked at the sky, and thought to himself: I don't know how many days the enemy will attack, but it shouldn't be really fought in the first two days, otherwise it won't have the effect of exhausting the enemy at all.

After thinking about it, Shen Lang took off his clothes and lay down on the bed, and before he could close his eyes, the war drums sounded outside the city again! Shen Lang scratched his head, the whole person got into the quilt, and couldn't help complaining: "This group of Yan Guokees still doesn't let people sleep!" ”

Cao Yunke was not so bold, as soon as he heard the sound of war drums, he immediately turned over and got up, and went up to the city wall before he had time to set up his armor. At the same time, the defenders who had just been withdrawn were also transferred to the city walls.

Looking at the number of Yan troops under the city, Cao Yun breathed a sigh of relief, this time the Yan army was half of the men, indicating that the other party was just here to harass, so Cao Yun ordered half of the soldiers to go back to rest, and he stayed to guard, just in case.

At the same time, Zhang Shumo came to Gongsun Luo's camp, and he was accompanied by Deputy Marshal Xu Jian.

Gongsun Luo and Xu Jian looked at Zhang Shumo, because this time it was the two people he took the initiative to meet.

"Strategist, what do you have to say about meeting us?"

Zhang Shumo arched his hand towards the two: "Your Highness, General Xu, when I talked about the strategy yesterday, I only said half of the true news, and half of it was fake!" The time for us to actually launch an attack is not fixed, it depends on when Zhang Gui and the others can go around to the back of Yangyuan City! ”
