"Empty city?"

The two of them recited these three words in unison.

"What is an empty city?" Qing'er asked puzzled.

"There are clouds in the art of war: the army is impermanent, the real is virtual, the virtual is real, the virtual is real, the real is real, the real is false, and the plan is a suspicious soldier. The empty city plan is the best use of the strategy of doubtful soldiers. Li Changsheng explained, "Open the gate of the city, sit alone on the tower of the city wall, or stroke the qin leisurely, or lupine scarf, or drink tea and wine, so as to spread the maze and chaos the enemy." ”

Li Changsheng's use of the 'empty city strategy' is to settle the ghost-faced man's cautious understanding of himself, so as to deliberately set up a maze to lure the enemy deeper.

But how could a cunning person like a ghost-faced man be easily deceived? Therefore, I am worried. Don't dare to offend easily.

Even if the door was open, he would never enter easily.

Especially after seeing that the opponent was Li Changsheng, the ghost-faced man had even more doubts in his heart, a suspicious person like him must have something to think about, and would rather retreat from the army than realize that he would take a risk.

"Childe. You're so godly. Qing'er said with a smile.

In the face of hundreds of thousands of troops, she was so frightened that she didn't even dare to breathe, but Childe was calm and calm, stroking the piano, this open-mindedness alone was admirable, not to mention that he just played the piano. forced the rebels back a hundred miles, which can really be described as a god in the world.

"There's nothing magical about it, and if it were me, I wouldn't have taken any chances, because it's a battle I can't afford to lose." Li Changsheng said, "And the ghost-faced man is well versed in the power of the art of war, the way of marching, and it is only reasonable to retreat." ”

Qing'er shook her head vigorously, as a woman, she didn't understand those marches and battles, and if she wanted her to understand the meaning, I was afraid that it would take a lot of saliva to be able to say it clearly.

Li Changsheng explained with a smile: "Whoever is a general, set up camp, besiege with high defense, flood at the bottom, fire attack with reeds, see the high mountains and first Morden, see the empty city and do not chase indiscriminately, this is the way of handsomeness, just that." ”

Qing'er didn't seem to understand, but seeing that she was still at a loss, Li Changsheng didn't explain too much.

An Ran, who was on the side, looked at Li Changsheng with admiration, and said in his heart: "This kid, at a young age, is not only brilliant in literature, but also proficient in the use of soldiers, which is terrifying." ”

"This strategy can only be urgent, but it cannot really defeat the enemy, once the enemy understands from the trance, he will chase after him and kill another one." Li Changsheng said, "Therefore, we must leave immediately, retreat to Wu County, dig ditches, and repair the city wall to buy more time." ”

An Ran and Qing'er were both instructed, immediately packed up their things, and ordered all the remaining dozens of people in the city to evacuate quickly and chase after the fleeing Suzhou people.

Before leaving, Li Changsheng was riding on horseback, still holding a torch in his hand, Qing'er followed him to his left and right, and asked, "Childe, what are you doing in the granary?" ”

"Even if we are all gone, we must not leave a grain of rice for them."

With that, he threw the torch into the granary. About an hour later, smoke billowed out of the granary.

After a while, the flames grew bigger and bigger, and even in daylight, they could be seen from hundreds of miles away.

The fire burned for three days and three nights, and burned all the rice and grain accumulated in Suzhou to ashes. When marching and fighting, grain and grass are indispensable and important materials, and it is a pity that they are burned, but it is also a helpless move.

The hundreds of thousands of rebels led by the Ghost-faced Man were invincible, and there was never a shortage of food and grass supplies, because every time they captured a city, in addition to robbing the people's property, there was also a food supply stored in the city.

……

A few days later, Ghostface soon learns that they have been fooled.

From the very beginning, the city of Suzhou was empty, except for Li Changsheng and others, the total number of people in the city added up to only a few dozen, which was really pitiful.

After knowing that he had been fooled, the ghost-faced man angrily threw the cup in his hand to the ground, but he didn't expect that he had fallen for a clumsy plan and was put on a plate by Li Changsheng.

"Spread the king's order, send an army into the city to search for grain and grass." Ghostface said.

After this tossing and turning, there are no six or seven days. When the vanguard sent by Ghostface entered the city, it was empty, nothing.

And the grain, grass and belongings were what they wanted the most, but unfortunately, the grain and grass had been burned out, and the porcelain vases were all broken by Li Changsheng. Turned into some worthless waste.

A report came from the front: "Your Majesty, in Suzhou City, not long ago, all the grain and grass have been burned by Li Changsheng, and all valuable things have been broken and turned into scrap copper and rotten iron. There's really nothing of value. ”

After learning the news, under the mask, his eyes were full of anger, although the grain and grass in the military camp could support for several months, but Suzhou City, as a large county in Wuzhong, put aside the finances. The grain is definitely the most abundant in all counties, enough to reach dozens of small counties.

But now, the grain and grass have been burned to ashes, and how can people not be angry?

"Li Changsheng!!"

The ghost-faced man squeezed these three words out of his mouth, gritting his teeth fiercely, the people beside him had never seen the leader so angry.

"I'm going to break you to pieces!!"

Li Changsheng not only teased him. and also destroyed all the grain, grass and valuable things in the city, so as to cut off his back road, leaving no way to live.

"Can you find out their escape route?!" Ghostface asked.

"Back to the emperor, Li Changsheng and his party fled to the southwest."

At this point, Ghostface arrives in front of the map, trying to find their escape route from the map. A place where it is already possible to hide.

After a long time, the ghost-faced man pointed to a small black dot in the southwest direction on the map and said, "Wu County, they must have fled to Wu County, pass on the order of the king of the king, and send three pioneers." Go to Wu County first, and then the army will converge with it, this time, Li Changsheng must not be allowed to run away again. ”

"Yes!!"

After the man complied with the order, he hurriedly gave the order.

As long as Li Changsheng dies, he can solve a big disaster in his heart. And in Chang'an, there is still a chess piece that has not been moved for a long time, once Li Chang dies and dies.

Then this chess piece, which has been dormant for a long time, can play his real role.

At that time, the Tang Empire will completely change its name and surname, and the 'Tang' in the world will no longer exist. In its place was the Great Zhou Empire.

After everyone left, he was the only one left in the big tent, and he didn't know when he clenched the blade in his hand and nailed it to the table, only to hear him say to himself: "Li Muchen, I want to make you pay a heavy price for the mistakes you made back then, and Li Changsheng is just the beginning." ”

The identity of the ghost-faced man has always been questioned, and even in the military camp, including Ling Chen, no one has ever seen his true face, and no one has ever known his true identity.

All they know is that the leader has unfathomable strength. and strong connections, even the King of Goguryeo, Baiyue and Dongying people were able to obey his orders and attack the Tang Dynasty together, which shows his strength.

No one knows about Ghostface's past, everything, but I'm afraid that the moment he takes off his mask will be truly revealed.

"Your Majesty. We've been brought in the early hours of the morning!! ”

"Let her in."

After getting permission from the ghost-faced man, he came to the tent in the early morning.

"Division...... Your Majesty, are you looking for me? ”

Fang just blurted out, and almost called him "master", but fortunately, he changed his words in time, and now the ghost-faced man is no longer his master. It was the Great Zhou Emperor.

"Recently, I haven't let you go to war, and I've heard that you're a bit of a whisper? Is there such a thing?! The ghost-faced man asked.

"The emperor is biased, and the other soldiers can go into battle to kill the enemy, but I can only stay in the tent and listen to the news of their triumph, I also want to go to the front line to fight." Ling Chen said.

Ghostface looked at her. Let out a cold snort: "Do you think war is child's play?" If you are not careful, you can lose all the games. ”

"But Weichen is also ......"

"Okay, I know that you have a grudge in your heart, and this doesn't summon you into the account alone, but you have a special task that needs to be completed." Ghostface said.

"You're saying I can go to the front too?"

"You are my most precious apprentice, how can you have less chance of making a career in battle? The reason why you are allowed to sit quietly under the account is that there is a more important task for you to complete. ”

"Weichen blames the emperor for his mistake, and asks the emperor to punish him." Ling Chen kowtowed and said.

The ghost-faced man hooked his fingers, motioned for Ling Chen to come forward, and whispered something in her ear.

After finishing speaking, Ling Chen's face changed greatly, and he said a little helplessly: "Your Majesty, you want me ......"

The ghost-faced man made a 'shhh' voice and said: "This matter must not be publicized, you go down and prepare, as my killer weapon, this time, you will definitely make an immortal achievement." ”

"But how do I get him to believe me?" Ling Chen asked more.

The ghost-faced man sneered, "I don't need him to believe you. Your face is the best proof of that, you know? ”

"Wechen understands."

When I retreated, I wanted to talk again and again, and I wanted to say that recently, some incomplete memory pictures always flashed in my mind. Because the picture is so short, I can't remember anything at all.

But since the ghost-faced man became the emperor, it was as if he had changed a person, so he didn't say anything in the early morning, and withdrew from the big tent in his heart.

……

Wu County!

When Li Changsheng returned to the place where his dream began, and learned the news of Li Changsheng's return, the people of the county went out to welcome him.

Its prosperous pomp and circumstance is quite a bit of the emperor's travel.

Knowing that Li Changsheng had come here for refuge, the people were not afraid, but instead took out rice and grain to feed the army, and even spontaneously built defense facilities.

They don't believe the slander of Li Changsheng by the outside world, because they know that Li Changsheng is a good official who really thinks about the people.

In the Wu County Mansion, Li Changsheng said to all the people and soldiers of Wu County: "Fathers and fellow villagers, all the soldiers, the rebels are in turmoil, vainly trying to subvert the Tang Dynasty, all parts of Wuzhong have fallen, the people are displaced, and everywhere the iron cavalry goes, they have poisoned the people, and now they are going to attack Wu County, and the next will be our most difficult period, do you have the confidence to defend this last pure land?!" ”

"Yes!!"

Everyone shouted in unison, resounding through the world.
