As the Wei siege team came to the bottom of the city wall, a rushing cart with huge logs was slowly pushed to the front of the city gate under the escort of more than 100 soldiers.

"Knock Knock Knock"

Under the repeated pulling of more than a dozen soldiers behind the rushing car, the log inlaid with heavy iron pieces began to violently hit the city gate, and suddenly there was a deafening loud noise.

At the same time, dozens of ladders also began to be quickly erected on the city wall, and countless dead soldiers of the Wei State climbed the ladders one after another, trying to climb the city wall to engage the defenders in hand-to-hand combat.

However, the friendly troops were accidentally wounded, and at this moment the catapults in the rear of the army had stopped firing, and only two crossbowmen on the well railings were still covering the arrival of the army.

Lacking the strong cover of catapults, the defenders of Shu at the head of the city soon got a chance to breathe.

Under the command of several partial generals, the Shu army refocused its attention on the Wei siege troops at their feet.

"Quick, release the arrows! Rolling wood! Don't let these Wei barbarians come up! ”

Seeing that the Wei soldiers had climbed halfway up the ladder, the hysterical roars of the generals began to resound on the city wall.

All of a sudden, the arrows on the cloud ladder rained down, and the dense arrows pierced the round shield in the hands of the Wei army in an instant, and some soldiers could not withstand the impact of the arrow rain, and suddenly their bodies were unstable and fell to the head of the city.

At the same time, several huge logs with spikes began to roll down from the city.

Immediately, the Wei army on the cloud ladder was smashed into a blur of flesh and blood, and after the rolling wood landed, the momentum continued to decrease, and a large number of soldiers under the city wall who were about to climb the cloud ladder were knocked down.

The defenders at the head of the city saw that the rolling wood had taken advantage, but they still did not give up, and brought more than a dozen barrels of hot oil that were burned to a boiling point, and splashed them on the heads of the Wei army below.

The hot oil poured on the bodies of the Wei soldiers, and in an instant there was a crackling explosion, and a terrible wail sounded.

Soon after, the scene at the foot of the city wall was like purgatory on earth.

The mutilated corpses of the Wei soldiers were scattered everywhere, with severed limbs, heads, and paving on the ground, the pungent smell of blood mixed with the stench emitted by the scorched human flesh, and were carried by the cold wind to the military formation on the other side of the moat.

The plan to ascend the city with the help of the ladder had obviously failed, and what was even more desperate was that the rushing car responsible for storming the city gate was also smashed by the rolling stones falling from the city, so that the Wei army's siege brigade completely lost its last hope.

Fei Zhen frowned and stared at everything that was happening in the distance, without saying a word.

Although he didn't expect this siege team to conquer the city in one fell swoop.

The reason why they were sent was more to test the garrison strength of the Shu army and lay a good foundation for the future siege of the army.

But he didn't expect such an elite defender to be quickly defeated without even climbing the city walls.

It seems that he still underestimated the Shu army's determination to defend the city after all.

I was also shocked to see from the sidelines, and the remains of the corpses were slightly better, after all, they were some distance away from me, and they couldn't really be seen. But the disgusting smell wafting in the wind really entered my nostrils, and immediately made my face pale, and I almost vomited on the spot.

As I tried my best to control myself, I shouted to Fei Zhen in a trembling voice:

"General, if you continue to consume like this, it will only increase the casualties, uh, no, why don't you withdraw the troops first, and then think of some countermeasures after you go back."

Fei Zhen obviously felt that I was reasonable, so he nodded and commanded the herald in a loud voice:

"Go, let them withdraw."

"No!"

Not long after, the piercing sound of gongs spread across the battlefield, and the demoralized siege troops began to slowly withdraw, leaving only a thousand corpses at the foot of the city walls.

Seeing this, the defenders of Shu at the head of the city cheered loudly, and then bid farewell to the Wei army with a sound of abuse......

——————————————————————————————————————

"Listen to the turtle son of the city! My general said it! You Shu men can't lift up and coax the goods, and you can't let out a fart when the girls are lying on the bed, you will only hide in the city and be a turtle with a shrunken head! Grandpa is here, if it's a man, he will come out and do it with real knives and guns! ”

In the evening, hundreds of Wei cavalry took turns to come to the moat, and began to scold the Shu defenders on duty at the head of the city.

Several strong-blooded defenders were scolded to the root of their teeth, but they didn't dare to go down to the city to fight, so they had to scold the Wei army in the air.

Seeing that the city head responded, the Wei cavalry immediately became interested, raised their voices and continued to scold, and the words were extremely obscene and vicious, and they scolded for more than an hour without repeating the same.

Obviously, they are all carefully selected "professionals", and in terms of this scolding vocabulary alone, the Shu army at the head of the city can't catch up.

After scolding each other for a while, soon the defenders were silent, and the Wei cavalry returned to the camp satisfied.

After a while, another cavalry came out of the camp, as if he had calculated the time to take over, and continued to curse into the city.

Such tirelessness and repetition made the soldiers and civilians in Chencang City can only spend the whole night tormented in endless abuse......

———————————————————————————————————————

At the same time, in the Wei army camp more than ten miles away from Chencang City, Fei Zhen and his generals were intensively discussing the current situation.

At this moment, the atmosphere in the big tent was extremely depressing, and it seemed that everyone was affected by today's siege failure, and their morale was quite low.

There was silence for a while, and I saw a burly man with a bearded face suddenly stand up.

He blushed and clenched his fist at Fei Zhen, and then shouted in a rough voice:

"General! The last general is willing to lead the dead tomorrow and conquer the city tower for the general! ”

As soon as the words fell, before Fei Zhen could speak, a thin general sneered and mocked in a sharp voice:

"Haven't you seen today's situation, General Cao? Still thinking about going to die in vain? ”

The burly General Cao was not to be outdone, and sneered and said sarcastically:

"Hehe, General Wei has a pair of sharp teeth, then you can also come up with a strategy to attack the city, don't just talk about it on the side!"

General Wei was not annoyed when he heard this, he stood up without hurrying, hugged his fist slightly at Fei Zhen on the main seat, and said confidently:

"Don't bother General Cao, the plan will be there a long time ago. General Fei! The last general proposed that from tomorrow onwards, our army would send small units to feign a siege of the city every day, and the large army would secretly dig on the outskirts of the city with the help of cover, so as to dig a tunnel leading directly into the city! When the time comes, our army will attack inside and outside, and Chen Cangcheng will be at your fingertips! ”

Fei Zhen still sat on the main seat with a blank face, obviously noncommittal about this plan, and he turned his head to look at me with an inquiring gaze.

"Counselor Xu, what do you think?"

I sat at the last seat, and after listening to General Wei's strategy, I faintly felt that something was wrong, and at this moment, seeing that Fei Zhen asked for my opinion, he said bluntly:

"General Fei, although the method of earth engineering is feasible, it may not be applicable to the current war situation. This is because the assignment takes too long to be completed in 20 days. Second, our army is already insufficient, and if we divide our troops to dig the earth, I am afraid that it will be difficult to hide people's eyes and ears, and once the other side notices it, it will be useless. ”

After hearing this, General Wei seemed to think that this plan was not feasible, and immediately put forward a second plan.

"This ...... Otherwise, we will lay earth beside the wall, and in a little time we will build a ramp, so that our cavalry will be able to strike straight to the city. ”

I still shook my head and said calmly:

"No, the city wall of Chencang City is too high, and it may take longer to rely on the sappers to build the soil than to dig tunnels, and besides, the Shu army is not a decoration after all, I am afraid that it will not be so easy for our army to succeed......"

"This ....."

Seeing that the two strategies were rejected by me one by one, General Wei suddenly felt that he couldn't get off the stage, but after thinking about it, what I just said was indeed true, and I couldn't find anything wrong, so I had to sit back in my seat angrily.

General Cao, who was standing on the side watching the play, saw that he was deflated, and he was in a good mood, only to see him glance at General Wei triumphantly, and continued to mock:

"Hehe, General Wei, I think you're on a par with the soil character? How? Are you short of soil in your five elements? If you want Lao Tzu to say, don't fix those twists and turns, today's siege failure is because the siege team is greedy for life and afraid of death, if there is Lao Tzu to supervise the war, they dare not take a step back! ”

He took a bite of "Lao Tzu", and the more he talked, the more excited he became, and he didn't notice Fei Zhen's sharp gaze on the side at all.

So I only heard Fei Zhen cough lightly and reminded:

"Ahem, General Cao~~~~"

Seeing that Fei was really looking at himself, General Cao realized that Fang Cai was a little out of shape, his tiger body was shocked, and the whole person suddenly softened, and he reluctantly admitted his mistake:

"Well, it's the last general who lost his word......."

Fei Zhen ignored him anymore, with a cold face, and continued to ask for my opinion.

"Counselor Xu, do you have any plans? Let's talk about it. ”

Looking at Fei Zhen's faintly anxious expression at this time, I only felt a little funny, and said in my heart that I would let you get ready, but you didn't listen, and now you have suffered a big loss but remembered me.

But I'm not a bad person, so how can I worry too much about these things with him?

So I pondered for a moment, and then replied:

"Hmm...... The strong attack is naturally not successful, if the siege of the city like today is fruitless, I am afraid that it will cost the lives of the soldiers, not to mention, it will only increase the morale of the enemy, huh...... If you can force the defenders of the city to go out of the city to fight......"

Before I finished speaking, General Cao on the side interjected impatiently:

"Nonsense, who doesn't know that you want to fight in the field, but Song Mi, this guy is so hard-hearted that he can't shrink back from life or death, you can also see it, my cavalry has been scolding outside the city for several hours, and they don't even let out a fart! Damn, it's the first time I've seen such a bloodless person after so many years of fighting! ”

I said in my heart that this guy is really good, the scar forgot the pain, and he was just stopped by Fei Zhen with a look, why did he stop for a while and couldn't control his mouth?

With this in mind, I will lay out the plan and the plan in my heart so that I can teach him some lessons.

At this moment, there was a sudden rush outside the tent.

"Report !! The patrol guards captured an enemy scout and intercepted a secret letter from the city's commander! ”

Fei Zhen's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he shouted:

"Bring it up!"

Hearing this, a small school teacher lifted the curtain and handed a letter to Fei Zhen in three steps and two steps.

Fei Zhen took the letter, quickly opened the envelope and glanced at the content on it, and his expression immediately changed......
