Liu Qi was also at a loss.

He doesn't know much about Sun Ben, but Sun Ce is the legendary Jiangdong Tiger, the fierce man who laid the foundation of Jiangdong, how could he be so brainless?

Didn't Sun Ce follow? It shouldn't be.

"Forget it, it's useless to think so much." In the end, Liu Qi chose to give up thinking, "Anyway, if you can let them underestimate the enemy, it is enough to attack Yancheng directly." ”

Left and right is not a complicated plan, it can attract people.

Wei Xiaokuan also nodded: "The lord is right." ”

Speaking of this, Wei Xiaokuan looked at the city wall with bald eyes, only soldiers stationed, and stopped talking.

Liu Qi saw it in his eyes: "Isn't it strange, why didn't I order the construction of the city's defense equipment, and only let you and the sick rectify the soldiers and horses?" ”

Wei Xiaokuan shook his head: "The subordinates have doubts, but the lord must have made a decision, and the subordinates only need to listen to orders." ”

"You can talk."

Liu Qi smiled.

After the barbarian war, he felt that he seemed to be more calm.

For example, now, the 6,000 elite army is in the 100 miles, and maybe the army will come to the city in the evening.

And his heart did not fluctuate in the slightest, and he could even recall the ghost-like expression of the other party when he was talking about business with Kuai Liang two days ago.

"Xiaokuan, I don't plan to defend the city." Liu Qi took his hand and looked at the endless mountains in the distance, "Most of Sun Ben's men are cavalry, and they don't carry heavy weapons to attack the city. And no matter whether he underestimated the enemy or not, because of the diligence of his sons, he had no chance to catch the people of Yancheng as cannon fodder to attack the city. ”

"It stands to reason that this kind of siege is the best way to fight. We only need to hold on to the city and let the arrows and stones of the sons and daughters desperately smash them on their heads, and we will naturally hold on to the day when the enemy retreats. Then, let the sick cavalry cover the killing, and it was another big victory. ”

Liu Qi's tone was flat: "However, such a big victory is not what I and my father want." ”

"I want you to lead the whole army out of the city to face the battle, just outside Yancheng, in front of all the people, families, and people with hearts in Yancheng, take my sons and daughters, and meet the invading enemy head-on."

"Then, drive them out of Yancheng!"

Liu Qi turned his head suddenly, his eyes blazing: "Filial piety, go to illness, save filial piety, it is possible?" ”

Wei Xiaokuan and Huo Quzhi's breathing became hot suddenly, and Li Cunxiao's face was even more red, his chest rose and fell, and he felt that the blood all over his body was burning.

The meaning of the lord is very clear.

What they want to do is not to lead the troops to defend Yancheng.

Instead, with an absolutely inferior force, he played an absolutely superior situation, and completely crushed the so-called elite under the command of Sun Ben!

Wei Xiaokuan straightened his spine, and his eyes burst out: "My subordinates are willing to make a military order!" ”

Huo Quzhi and Li Cunxiao also hugged their fists: "My subordinates are also willing!" ”

Originally, I thought that the defense of the city was Wei Xiaokuan's main battlefield, and there was no room for the two of them to play, but now the lord has spoken to face the enemy head-on.

How many feats you can get, it's up to you to do it!

"Good!"

Liu Qi laughed and slapped Wei Xiaokuan on the back: "Do a good job, when this battle is over, the names of you, the sick, and the filial piety will resound throughout Jingzhou!" ”

……

In the evening, Sun Ben's 6,000 elite army finally arrived at the foot of Yancheng City.

Looking at the low and gray city wall in the distance, as well as the shadowy soldiers on the city wall, Sun Ben showed a disdainful expression: "Come on, go and persuade you to surrender." ”

Looking at the city wall, there were not even bed crossbows or catapults, and there was no beacon fire, so it was obvious that it was not ready at all.

This kind of battle, he can win with his eyes closed!

Sun Fu jumped off the horse and stepped the concrete floor under his feet.

"Damn, this Liu Qi is a waste in war, but he is a good hand at building roads. I don't know how this road was built, it's hard and smooth! ”

The guards around him all laughed, ridiculing that if Liu Qi was willing to hand over the materials for road repair, he would give him a whole corpse, looking very relaxed.

Sun Ce showed a look of disapproval, but when he saw his cousin's complacent appearance, he swallowed the words in his mouth again.

Forget it, anyway, Liu Qi is not a famous general, in case there is a trap, just retreat in time.

A cavalryman rode out on horseback and was ordered to go to the city to persuade him to surrender.

He estimated the distance, stood still outside the range of the crossbow arrows, and was about to open his mouth to shout.

Suddenly, a low horn sounded.

"Whew-"

The city gate was slowly opened, the drawbridge was lowered, and thousands of troops slowly came out under the leadership of two military generals, and stood up in front of the moat without hurry, confronting Sun Ben's army.

The cavalryman was so excited that he quickly turned his horse's head and ran.

However, it was too late, Huo Qu was sick and took his bow and arrows, and released the bowstring casually.

The iron arrow "swished" through the chest of the cavalry, and the cavalry fell off their horses, leaving only the horses in a daze.

Sun Ben didn't have time to care about the life and death of his cavalry, his bronze bell-like eyes widened exaggeratedly, looking at the array opposite, speechless for a while.

Liu Qi actually dared to go out of the city to meet the enemy?

He's not going to die!

No, that's not the most important thing.

Sun Ben's face sank like water, and he gritted his teeth: "Those soldiers are obviously not people's husbands, where did he come from!" ”

Didn't you say that there were only a few hundred defenders in Yancheng!

The three thousand numbers in front of them, with bright armor and high momentum, look at a glance where did the elite troops come from!

Sun Fu is a spirit, the intelligence is that he is in charge, this is a mistake with his subordinates!

Seeing that his brother was about to explode, Sun Fu hurriedly comforted: "Brother, don't worry, then Liu Qi is Liu Biao's eldest son, and he has been stationed in Yancheng for almost a month, so it is normal to send more troops to his son." ”

"There are only about 3,000 people on the other side, and he is still a scholar who doesn't understand military affairs, how can he be my brother's opponent!"

That's right, if you are a person who knows the army, you will not know that the troops are insufficient and still go out of the city to meet the battle.

Sun Ben took a deep breath and glared at his younger brother fiercely: "Are you sure that there are no other generals in the city except for Liu Qi?" ”

Sun Ben hurriedly nodded: "The scouts have all been visited, except for a bandit leader named Zhang Hu, then Liu Qi's subordinates are all scholars!" ”

Sun Ben breathed a sigh of relief: "Okay, since Liu Qi looks down on me so much, I will teach him what it means to fight." ”

"The whole army is arrayed, the cavalry is the vanguard, Bo Fu, press on!"

The command flag was waved constantly, and the 6,000-strong army was well-trained to change formation.

Three thousand elite cavalry, led by Sun Ce, raised their horses' hooves and smashed them into the opposite side.

Sun Ce never said a word since he saw the enemy army leaving the city, and only moved with the army after Sun Ben gave the order. His eyes were fixed on the thin figure on the city wall, not knowing what he was thinking.

Sun Benjun moved, and Liu Qijun responded to all changes with the same.

Wei Xiaokuan sat in the Chinese army and lined up with infantry.

Thousands of strong men with a height of eight feet and a waist of ten girths healthy lacquered wooden shields, ignoring the vibrations from the earth, shouted angrily, and stood the shields side by side on the ground.
