The drums of war roared, and the flags covered the sky and the sun.

"Father, in front of us is Pingzhou City, our army has traveled hundreds of miles, and most of the soldiers are exhausted, do you want to set up camp first, and then start attacking the city after resting?"

Meng Wu looked at the tall city wall of Pingzhou, turned his head to look at his father, and suggested softly.

Meng Fu did not reply, but looked back at the mental state of the soldiers.

Meng Fu found that although some of the soldiers had tired faces, most of them had very bright eyes and were full of fighting spirit.

On the other hand, the defenders on the city wall, even if they were all in battle at this time, were obviously a little nervous.

"You're right, let the soldiers set up camp."

"In addition, send people to the city to shout, saying that we have given the defenders of the city three days, and if the city surrenders within three days, all the generals and colonels can enjoy the meritorious service."

"If you insist on resisting, on the day the city is broken, Zhulian will defend the city and the family of the school."

Last year, Zhao Jia attacked the land of Shenqi, and it was this method that was used, in addition to the fierce resistance that began to be encountered, after many of the rebellious Qin generals and relatives were subjected to Zhulian, the will of the remaining city guards began to waver.

Now Meng Fu commanded 100,000 elite Qin troops, and rushed to kill with the momentum of swallowing mountains and rivers, giving great pressure to the defenders in the city.

At this time, even if there is little chance of persuading the generals defending the city, it can still shake the hearts of the soldiers in the city.

As a veteran general on the battlefield, Meng Fu has been used perfectly for the battle of attacking the heart.

The large army of the Qin army slowly left, but Meng Fu took thousands of elites and observed around the city wall of Pingzhou.

"Fortunately, Pingzhou City has not been completely built, otherwise with the topography of Pingzhou, I will command 100,000 troops, and it will be extremely difficult to break through this city."

Meng Fu pointed to a magnificent section of the city wall that had not yet been completed, and said to Meng Wu.

When Meng Wu heard this, he also nodded solemnly.

Meng Fu looked carefully at this section of the city wall that had not yet been built for a long time, and sent his subordinate professionals to observe and consider it.

Su Mo received the report from his subordinates, and couldn't help frowning slightly.

"Captain Qiyu, Meng Yu has led the troops to retreat."

Qi Xuan listened to the scout's report, his solemn face stretched slightly, and he turned his head to Su Mo and said, "Captain, Meng Xuan gave me three days to wait, just so that the soldiers can get used to the pressure brought by the Qin army. ”

"As long as the soldiers lose their fear and rely on the strong Pingzhou city wall, they may not be able to stop the 100,000 Qin army."

Pingzhou was originally a strong city, but Zhao Jia wanted to build Pingzhou City into a real fortress, so he began to strengthen and expand the city wall.

However, due to the lack of funds and manpower and material resources, the city wall was only expanded by more than half.

Rao is so, Pingzhou City is still easy to defend and difficult to attack.

Qi Xuan looked at the overly nervous defenders around him, and lowered his voice to suggest: "The soldiers are obviously overly nervous, since Meng Fu has set a three-day appointment, why don't the lieutenants let the soldiers relax a little to dilute the fear of the Qin army." ”

Su Mo glanced at Qi Xuan and said in a deep voice: "The Art of War: The three armies can win the air, and the generals can win the heart." It is so vigorous and sharp, lazy during the day, and return at dusk. Therefore, make good use of soldiers and avoid their sharpness; Hit its laziness, this qi curator also. ”

"The Qin army was at its peak at the beginning, but our army was afraid of the Qin army's strength and was a little restless."

"And Pingzhou is not far from Zhongyang, and most of the cavalry under Gongzi's command can arrive in Pingzhou without three days of reinforcements."

"Meng Fu is a veteran general on the battlefield, how can he not know that with a vigorous army, he will attack the army with a floating heart?"

"The so-called three-day covenant must be because Meng Fu intends to confuse us, so I watched Meng Fu stop for a long time at the eastern city wall, and sent people to observe and analyze the terrain."

"If what I expected is correct, tonight Meng Fu will definitely storm that section of the city wall overnight."

"If you believe in Mengfu's words and make the soldiers relax and slack, the loss of Pingzhou City will be tonight."

When Qi Xuan heard this, he suddenly woke up, feeling a cold sweat on his back.

Only at this time did he know that the gap between himself and Su Mo was because Su Mo was familiar with military books and was able to combine the art of war with reality.

Compared to Su Mo, Qi Xuan still had a lot to learn.

"Does the Lieutenant want to set up an ambush at the eastern part of the wall?"

Su Mo bowed slightly, and said: "The first battle is related to the morale of the defenders, and there is no room for loss, I am ready to mobilize four thousand soldiers and horses to ambush on the east side of the city wall." ”

"If Meng Fu dares to sneak attack at night, he will definitely make it impossible to return!"

Time passes slowly.

The troops and materials in the city of Pingzhou are constantly mobilized, and the eastern part of the city wall has been laid a net.

When everything was ready, Su Mo looked at the quiet Qin army camp, but he felt a little uneasy in his heart.

"Everything that should be prepared has been prepared, am I missing something?"

Su Mo held the hilt of his sword in his hand and tried to think about the loopholes he had arranged, but he couldn't figure out where he hadn't thought about it anyway.

At this moment, Qi Xuan muttered: "It is said that Meng Xuan is a battlefield general, and he uses soldiers like a god, and today he has not been seen through by the lieutenant in his heart." ”

"In my opinion, it's just like that."

Su Mo, who was originally trying to think about the problem, after hearing these words, his body froze on the spot, and his face became even more blue and red.

Yes, Meng Fu is a veritable veteran of the battlefield.

If the other party is really so easy, and he sees through his intentions, how can he possibly have the achievements he has today?

"Could it be that I misjudged?"

"I think about it, I think about it, there must be something that hasn't been thought through!"

Summer paced back and forth on the city walls.

After a long time, Su Mo suddenly stopped.

He whispered a few words to Qi Xuan, and after seeing Qi Xuan leave, he began to wait anxiously in the city.

Night falls.

Dark clouds obscured the moonlight, and the faint stars did not dilute the depth of the night.

The eastern part of the city wall of Pingzhou, the location of the detailed exploration during the day.

Meng Wu was leading the Qin army at this time, and took advantage of the night to sneak over and approach the city wall.

"General Qiyu, the city wall is unusually quiet, and the soldiers of Zhao Guo don't seem to have discovered our intentions."

The leader of the scouts touched Meng Wu's side and whispered.

When Meng Wu heard this, the corners of his mouth outlined a trace of arc, and he chuckled: "It seems that my father still overestimated the Pingzhou guards." ”

"Pass my military order, light the torches, push the ladder under the city walls, and start the siege!"

Pingzhou City is not small, although there are 5,000 defenders in the city, but they are scattered everywhere for defense, and it is night at this time, according to common sense, there must be many soldiers resting.

If Zhao Guo's soldiers did not make preparations in advance, Meng Wu would most likely take advantage of the other party's lack of time to rescue and let his soldiers climb from here to the city wall.

At that time.

Even if the Pingzhou defenders arrived here and lost the city wall as a support, it would be impossible to stop the Qin army.
