Chen Dacheng's words are naturally not recognized, and they are not good if they are consumed with the imperial court.

Kong Youde and Geng Zhongming glanced at each other, their expressions were solemn, but they did not speak.

Now the imperial court is making concerted efforts to conquer, not the previous stragglers, the 100,000 army has come to Dengzhou Mansion, if they can't defeat the 100,000 army, the defeat will be sooner or later.

"Gather everyone to take counsel." Kong Youde listened to the sound of artillery outside, and turned around and went down the city tower with an expressionless face.

A group of people hurriedly followed him, and all the generals with official rank were summoned.

At the same time, Zhou Zheng and others were also discussing.

In Zhou Zheng's big tent, Meng Hezhou looked at the map of Dengzhou Mansion and said, "My lord, Dengzhou Mansion is surrounded by mountains on three sides, and there is no other entrance except for the south gate. The south gate was built very tall and very thick, and as long as there were 1,000 people guarding the city, 10,000 people could not take it for a while. The people of Dengzhou City have been slaughtered, all of them are Kong Youde's rebels, there are more than 30,000 people, and it is very difficult to storm them......"

Everyone listened silently, looking at the map and thinking about a way.

Waiting for Meng Hezhou's voice to fall, Zhang Cunren said: "Even if we can break through the city gate, our more than 10,000 people may not be the opponent of Kong Youde's 30,000 army, Kong Youde has no way to retreat, and he will fight back desperately, even if we win, we will have to lose almost the same, and the ......gains outweigh the losses."

He Kegang pondered and said: "Now the best strategy is to besiege, and the artillery will continue to bombard, until Kong Youde can't sit still, go out of the city to start a war, and a strong attack is the next strategy." ”

Cao Bianjiao and the others did not speak, frowning calmly.

If they can't attack it, they can't afford it, and they are in a dilemma.

Zhou Zheng thought about various methods in his heart, but there was no suitable one. Kong Youde sits on a dangerous city, either storming at any cost, or besieging it.

But this is not in line with his requirements, he must break through Dengzhou City before the arrival of Zhu Dadian's army and win this first achievement!

Zhou Zheng pondered for a long time and said, "Are there any of our people in the city, can we burn the grain and grass and divide them?" ”

Meng Hezhou shook his head and said: "Kong Youde's prevention and control is extremely strict, our people can't infiltrate, and they must be stricter in guarding the grain and grass, not as careless as Jianyu." There is basically no way to start from within them. ”

Zhou Zheng stood up and said, "Then tired enemy tactics!" Don't stop the cannons, the three of you are divided into three shifts, taking turns to attack the city, I want Kong Youde to be unable to close his eyes for a moment! ”

Cao Bianjiao, He Kegang and the others' eyes lit up, this is indeed a way.

"The last general commands!" A group of people raised their hands, then turned and went out.

Zhou Zheng's 15,000 people made three waves, lined up in front of Dengzhou Mansion, and made a full posture.

Before Kong Youde and the others could discuss properly, they were shocked to come to the city again.

"Kill!"

The first wave was Cao Bianjiao, who roared loudly and led 5,000 people to kill far away towards Dengzhou Mansion.

Chen Dacheng was startled, and hurriedly shouted: "Open the cannon, don't let them get close!" ”

The rebels on the tower of the city had been waiting for a long time, and as soon as they heard the panic, they opened fire.

Geng Zhongming hurriedly shouted: "Stop, wait until they reach the firing range before firing!" ”

But it was too late, and more than a dozen cannons on the head of the city had already been ignited and fired.

Seeing the cannon fire on Dengzhou City, the charge of Cao Bianjiao's army immediately stopped.

Kong Youde looked at Chen Dacheng with a somewhat indifferent expression.

Chen Dacheng hurriedly raised his hand and said, "The villain is reckless, please forgive me!" ”

Geng Zhongming stopped the cannon and looked at Zhou Zheng's army as if it was close at hand.

They waited for a while, and Cao Bianjiao led the army to charge again, the angry shouts were earth-shattering, and the flags fluttered, covering a mountain forest.

Kong Youde raised his hand, waiting for Cao Bianjiao to enter the range of the cannon.

Everyone on the city tower is very nervous, if Zhou Zheng attacks the city at any cost, they will be very troublesome, after all, Zhou Zheng still has seventy or eighty thousand reinforcements behind him!

But before Kong Youde raised his hand, Cao Bianjiao stopped outside the range of the cannon.

After a pause, the formation was regrouped, and the soldiers raised their weapons and shouted loudly, and the sound was like thunder, resounding through the sky.

Kong Youde and the others looked at each other, but they soon understood.

Geng Zhongming's face was gloomy, and he said, "Zhou Zhengyun is trying to use the tactics of exhausting the enemy to drag us down!" ”

This kind of tired enemy tactic is the most difficult, because no one knows if the next moment is really a siege, and a little relaxation may be the total annihilation!

Kong Youde naturally understood the stakes, twisted his eyebrows, and said, "Order five thousand people to defend the city, and the others to rest." I, Geng Zhongming, Chen Sometimes, and Chen Jiucheng respectively guard the city gate, and once the official army attacks the city, report it immediately! ”

"Yes!" A group of people responded.

But everyone's expressions were not at all relaxed, there were rumbling shells overhead, and outside the city were the officers and soldiers who were shouting incessantly, who dared to really relax?

Even if you were allowed to sleep, would you be able to sleep?

Kong Youde glanced at the soldiers under the city with different expressions, but with the same panicked and restless looks, secretly stiffened his face, and strode downstairs.

Zhou Zheng stood in front of the big tent, looking at Dengzhou City with a telescope, observing calmly, thinking about the countermeasures for a quick victory.

Shangguan Qing stood beside him in silver armor, blinked, and suddenly said in a low voice: "It's better to have nine falsehoods and one truth." ”

Zhou Zheng was stunned for a moment, and then said: "Well, the method is good." Chu Jin, pass the order, nine false and one true, not necessarily, let Cao Bianjiao, He Kegang They are optimistic about the opportunity and come in disorder. ”

Chu Jin also felt that this method was very good when he heard it, and hurriedly went to pass the order.

On Dengzhou City, the first to defend the city was Geng Zhongming, he looked at Cao Bianjiao who was pretending to be there, his eyes were disdainful, and he didn't care, he sat on the chair and actually drank wine.

"Kill!"

Suddenly, the voice of Cao Bianjiao's army suddenly became louder, and the 5,000-strong army rushed straight into the range of the rebel cannons and killed the head of Dengzhou City.

The soldiers had gradually become accustomed to it, and they were suddenly startled, and hurriedly shouted to Geng Zhongming: "My lord, the official army has attacked the city!" ”

Geng Zhongming staggered, threw away the chicken leg in his hand, stood at the head of the city, and looked a little panicked when he saw that Cao Bianjiao was really killed, and hurriedly said: "Hurry up and shoot!" Hurry up and inform Master Kong! ”

Dengzhou City, which was just about to be stabilized, suddenly became chaotic again as Cao Bianjiao really attacked the city. Kong Youde and the others just wanted to rest for a while, and hurriedly ran to the city again.

Cao Bianjiao's army braved the artillery fire and attacked straight towards the south gate of Dengzhou City.

Kong Youde glanced at the archers and various city defense equipment on the city wall, his expression was much calmer, and he looked at Zhou Zheng's army in the distance, thinking in his heart, whether to send someone out of the city and give Zhou Zheng a dismount!

While he was thinking, Cao Bianjiao, who had already rushed halfway and was about to reach the range of the archers, turned the banner of the army, and the five thousand people retreated like a tide.

Before everyone had time to react, Kong Youde's face became more and more ugly.

Zhou Zheng's tired tactics have gone further, and he can't rest for a while if he wants to!
