Chapter 41: Surrender

Liu Bang watched these people rush towards the county seat, and could only pray that they could have some effect, he had been in Pei County for so many years, and he knew more about this place.

With this point, if they want to attack, they are a little busy and reluctant, and they have no chance at all, so they can only give it a try and see if there are any loopholes.

The shout sounded, and the county magistrate of the city saw it and smiled.

Even if you come to attack, this is what he wants to see, with the city wall, he can eliminate some of Liu Bang's people.

"Kill."

"Rush."

The archers in the city were ready, and the arrows with fire were fired, and the hit rate was too low, but someone was still shot.

A group of people carried shields, which were made of some bamboo, and rushed forward desperately.

Pushing the log and trying to hit the city gate, but the arrows from it rained down, and many of them died.

The ladder was erected, and before they could climb up, a boulder fell down from it, and they were either seriously injured or killed.

The strong attack, which had been stalemate for an hour, suffered heavy losses, but did not cause much damage to the city.

In the end, they had to give the order to retreat, and such a strong attack was to send their lives.

The person sent by the county commander to inquire about the news returned, and the county commander asked suspiciously: "There are really reinforcements, who sent someone to ask for help?"

The generals shook their heads, none of them had sent anyone for help.

The inquirer: "Yes, but it is the county keeper who has heard that there are traitors in Pei County, and he has sent a thousand people to reinforce him.

However, due to the rampant number of traitors, the army can only go to the neighboring counties to reinforce first, and at most two days later, we can reach Pei County, and then we can exterminate the rebels. ”

The county order was very happy when he heard it, but he didn't expect that there would be a rebellion in the neighboring county, and finally ushered in a large army, and then Liu Bang and the others would wait to die!

The county commander was happy, but he was not carried away, and continued to ask: "Is there any movement of the Zhang Chu coalition army nearby?"

The detective smiled and said, "Yes, but they just suffered a big defeat in Dangshan, and I heard that they have captured a lot of soldiers. ”

When the county order heard it, it laughed!

That's great!

After all, these thieves will not live long.

The county commander said to everyone: "You all heard it, Zhang Chu's reinforcements don't exist at all, it's Liu Bang's thief who is deceiving everyone, and our reinforcements are about to arrive."

Everyone only needs to hold on for two more days, and it will be a matter of time before Liu Ji is exterminated. ”

The county ordered: "Come on." ”

"Yes."

"Spread the word all over the city and let everyone know."

"Yes."

The county order wants to reassure everyone and let them support him.

Outside the city.

Everyone is at a loss, if they really can't take the county seat, they are likely to be exterminated by the people sent by the county guard.

After thinking about it, Xiao He said with a smile: "Why don't we surrender!" ”

"Xiao He, what do you mean?"

"It's just, you're a soft egg."

"The big deal is a death, a big scar."

"I think you scholars are just some waste, you only know how to surrender, and you don't have a plan."

"If it weren't for the sake of the eldest brother's face, believe it or not, we would have split your body in minutes!"

Liu Bang knew what Xiao was, he definitely wouldn't say this easily, and scolded: "Okay, let's listen to what he says?" ”

Liu Bang is also a little annoying, they don't respect education, and there is no distinction between respect and inferiority.

In this way, how can great things be accomplished, and discipline is not strict.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I think we should fake surrender, so that we can enter the city smoothly, and it is not feasible to storm the city that you have just used." Xiao He said confidently that if he didn't value Liu Bang, he really didn't want to stay with these people.

After hearing Xiao He's plan, everyone felt that it was very feasible, but some people felt that it was unreliable.

"Even though the plan you said is good, what if the county order doesn't believe it?" Some people still ask questions.

Xiao He smiled and said: "This is already the best way, we can't sit still, the county order is right, as soon as their reinforcements arrive, we will be in danger!" ”

Liu Bang knew that there was no way out, and now he could only give it a try.

"Lord Xiao's method is very good, who wants to give it a try?" Liu Bang asked.

"I'll go."

"I'll go."

Hearing Liu Bang's words, someone quickly replied.

Xiao He said: "The people who go this time can only be ordinary people, people who have not made mistakes, people should be smart, once the county order does not believe it, retreat quickly."

If the county order orders the city gate to be opened, you immediately occupy the city gate and give us all time, you have to show that you are forced to be helpless, anyway, you are all kinds of saying that Liu Ji is not good, and win the trust of the county order. ”

When Liu Bang heard this, he really didn't misunderstand Xiao He, you can't just rely on some reckless men to fight, you have to know the art of war.

Attacking the east and attacking the west, taking it by surprise, attacking it unprepared, and surrendering by fraud.

The few people who followed Liu Bang very well must not go, otherwise it will make the county order suspicious, and the time will fall short.

Town.

The county magistrate was very happy when he heard the report, and then went up to the castle tower.

I saw a lot of people kneeling outside the city, about thirty or forty people, who didn't seem to be carrying any weapons, and it was night again, only torches in their hands.

"The county commander spared his life, and we were also coerced by Liu Bang, and asked the county magistrate to give me a chance."

"Yes, Liu Bang's dog thief heard that the county guard army was coming, and he was planning to escape from Peixian."

"Spare your life!"

"Please spare your life."

"Please spare your life."

Everyone knelt on the ground and begged the prefectural magistrate to forgive them, and the prefectural magistrate smiled when he saw this.

Liu Bang is already a grasshopper after the autumn, and he can't jump for a few days.

"Open the gates of the city, let them in, and let them in." The county magistrate didn't think about it, and the people around him said it so far.

In his opinion, it is normal for someone to be betrayed by Liu Bang, because there is no way out with Liu Bang, and these people are aware of current affairs.

In the final analysis, they are greedy for life and afraid of death, and they are also begging for a bite to eat, so they will follow Liu Bang.

"Open the gates."

After speaking, the county commander went downstairs, and the deputy general said: "My lord, then Liu Bang was originally a sparse soldier and horse, and now that so many people have escaped, he is even weaker, why don't we take the initiative to attack and wipe them out?" ”

Although the county commander was happy, he didn't want to do this, and said with a smile: "No, we are guarding here, he Liu Bang has three heads and six arms, and he can't fly to the city, and when our reinforcements arrive, he will definitely leave his bones gone." ”

The adjutant general said: "I'm afraid that the night will be long and I will have too many dreams!" ”

The county commander smiled: "That is also his Liu Bang's nightmare, now Liu Bang's people are running away, and the people under him are all greedy for life and afraid of death, now that some people are fleeing, tomorrow they will have infighting, and then we won't need to do it." ”

The adjutant general said, "Your Excellency is wise. ”

After saying this, he heard the sound of shouting and killing, and the county commander hurriedly rushed to the city tower to take a look, and found that Liu Bang's people were actually coming to attack the city.

"What's going on?" The county order was taken aback, and Liu Bang dared to attack the city again.

"My lord, it's not good, the city gate is lost and occupied." A soldier hurriedly came to report.

"What?" The county order was startled when he heard it, and the city gate was lost in an instant.

Is it ......?

Swindling.

Thinking of this, the county commander's face turned pale, and he immediately said: "Come on, hurry up and stop people from retaking the city gate, and don't let Liu Bang and other thieves enter the city." ”

"Yes."

"Shoot the arrows." The county magistrate can only be anxious now, looking at those who rushed over.

After an hour of fierce fighting, Liu Bang's men occupied Pei County, Liu Bang looked at the county order in front of him, and said with a smile: "How is it?" ”

The county ordered: "Liu Bang, you must not die well, if you commit rebellion, the Liu family will be destroyed by my Wang family in the future, you ......"

Liu Bang didn't want to listen to any more nonsense, and ended the life of the county commander with a sword.

The next day, the Qin army, which was still halfway through, heard that Pei County had been lost, and the 1,000 people with the advantage turned around and left, giving up the idea of recapturing Pei County.

And Liu Bang, who was a robber in the mountains, finally had his own foothold.
