Taizhou.

The sealing knife is looking at this small city in the distance and worrying, the closed city gate, the city wall two or three zhang high, there are people standing on it, it seems that it is over 10,000. Although this city is average, but the sad thing is that this Zhao Cheng actually pulled up a team of 10,000 people, he only has 10,000 gods, and the field battle is fine, but the siege is different, no matter how brave and invincible you are, and your morale is high, you still have to climb to the top of the city step by step, in this process, as long as you are flesh and blood, it doesn't matter what the name is. Besides, 10,000 people can't attack a city at all, it's like hitting an egg against a stone.

Fan Chuan rubbed his waist, hammered his thighs, slowly walked to the side of the sealing knife, and looked at the Taizhou county town in the distance, which is not a very big city in Yangzhou outside the county of Taizhou, and it is also a medium-sized earthen city, but because of the existence of the Li family, this city has become a county town with some fame among the sixty-four counties. Not only is it the richest county town in Yangzhou, but also the best one in Yangzhou County, and the other county towns are generally earthen city walls, which are indeed made of bluestone, and the city walls are much higher than similar county towns.

In Yangzhou, among the six counties of eight cities, there are only eight cities, which are carefully built, which can be described as the city is high and deep, and the grain and grass are sufficient, and the roles of these eight cities are different, like Xuanzhou City, which is the west gateway of Yangzhou and the military city of Yangzhou, which is equivalent to the headquarters of a military subdivision today. Another example, Fancheng, which was the foundation of the Fan family that was very prosperous back then, and because the head of the Fan family was meritorious to the country at that time, Fancheng became a symbol, and it was built quite strongly...... Of course, there are a few other cities, but I'll talk about that later.

At the moment, this county town, which is only a little inferior to the eight cities, is really embarrassing.

"What should I do?" Fan Chuan frowned and didn't speak when he saw Feng Dao, thinking to himself, now is not the time to be silent, the soldiers are marching all the way, the soldiers are physically exhausted, people are sleepy and tired, so they have to quickly set up camp and repair.

"What is the origin of this Zhao Cheng, how can he pull up so many people? Your clan in Yangzhou has such a ability......" Feng Dao looked at Zhao Chengbu who was waiting in battle at the head of the city, and had a headache, he finally understood Wei Jin a little now, sure enough, the foundation of this Yangzhou clan is too deep, if you want to uproot it, you must break the big stand, only kill one Zhao Cheng, it is useless.

"Most of the clans have private soldiers, or support doormen, even if they pull up the family, they can make up this number, it is not surprising, when my family was prosperous, the family and the doorman added up to nearly 10,000 people." Fan Chuan said quietly, it seems that Luoyang Mansion is really a peaceful place.

"Where is this scabies, this is clearly a problem in the heart...... Fortunately, there is no such thing in my Luoyang Mansion......" Feng Dao sighed, and began to sympathize with Wei Jin in his heart, the boss, the boss, I'm afraid you won't be able to clean up this mess, it depends on Ying Qiong's kid's means.

"To fight or not to fight? You don't think you're trying to slip away, are you? Fan Chuan straightened his waist and glared at the sealing knife and asked.

"Haha, it's all here, how can you do it if you don't play, I still want to see what kind of person this Zhao Cheng is, and he has such a ability." How can the sealing knife slip? The hands have long been itchy, and the battle in front of you can still be fought by others?

"How to play? The strong attack will definitely not work, and you can only outwit it, but I estimate that the other party will definitely not be able to hold out. Unless there's some way you can lure them out. Fan Chuan said helplessly, there must be plenty of grain and grass in Taizhou City, after all, there is the Li family.

"You're wrong, they should be more anxious than us now, I heard that Ying Qiong is coming back soon, do they dare to spend it with us?" Feng Dao smiled, as an ordinary person, he must be an honest man, but he is a general, this quality of a general is still there, if the battlefield situation is not clear, it will suffer a big loss. Speaking of which, this is also thanks to Yan Beifeng, every time we discussed things together before, I always said that we should look at the overall situation strategically and do details from a tactical point of view. This sentence, the sealing knife is kept in mind.

"Makes sense, it makes sense...... If Childe arrives with the new army, then they will be completely out of play. Fan Chuan thought about it, that's true, when the time comes, surround Taizhou, and then what should you do, if you dare to come out, I will beat you, and see how long you can shrink.

"Just camp in this forest and rest, tomorrow, I'll call the battle!" Feng Dao said excitedly.

"Okay, I'll arrange it." Fan Chuan turned around and arranged for the troops to camp and sent sentries to guard them.

……

……

At the head of this city, Zhao Cheng has been nervous for a long time, he has seen a figure shaking in the forest in the distance, and he has also seen the military flag of Luoyang Mansion, but he has not come to attack for a long time, which makes people nervous in vain.

Li Shi didn't say a word on the side, looked at the patchwork soldiers at the head of the city, sighed, and came out leisurely.

"What are you sighing for?" Zhao Cheng's words were a little sharp.

"I didn't ...... No, it's just a tightness in the chest. Li Shi was a little scared, and hurriedly explained, Zhao Cheng's bulging eyes were like bull's eyes.

"Brother Li, let's go back and rest." Zhao Cheng changed his words and persuaded Li Shi to leave.

"Okay, then I'll go first." Li Shi hurriedly got out, he didn't want to stay in this city for a moment.

Zhao Cheng looked at Li Shi who left in a hurry, and laughed in his heart, what a soft egg.

"Brothers, it seems that the enemy will not attack, so rest for a while." Zhao Cheng ordered, and when the tense soldiers heard this, they breathed a sigh of relief, put down the bows, arrows, knives and guns in their hands, and gasped.

……

On the first day of the Shence army's entry into the Taizhou battlefield, it did not launch an attack.

……

On the second day, Fengdao led 10,000 horses to feign a siege and make a big noise, but when he rushed to the last step beyond the range of the defenders' bows and arrows, he retreated.

After a few hours, Fengdao led the army to attack again, and Fan Chuan also led 5,000 people of the Xuanzhou Army of his headquarters to make a feint in the east.

Zhao Cheng at the head of the city jumped angrily, and scolded Feng Dao for being a coward at the head of the city, but Feng Dao ignored it completely, and smiled like a fool on his face.

In the evening, the old technique of sealing the sword was repeated, once again giving the defenders at the head of the city a surprise...... To be precise, it should be frightened, Zhao Cheng's army, which had been tossed for a day, was changing the guard, unfortunately, the Shence army and the Xuanzhou army were killed together, this time the war drums were beating the sky, as if it was really going to attack the city, Zhao Cheng's army hurriedly dropped his rice bowl, climbed to the head of the city to prepare for battle, Zhao Cheng also dragged his round body and rushed to the city head in one breath, tired and panting, seeing that the enemy all pounced, and hurriedly commanded the battle. However, this time, it was still fake, rushing to rush, Fan Chuan and Fengdao withdrew with their men and horses, and they retreated leisurely and chic.

On the ground behind them, the arrows of the defenders cut out a landscape.

Zhao Cheng was angry, completely angry, and the soldiers at the head of the city also beat their chests and smoked angrily.

"Seal the knife, I...... Your ancestor ......" Zhao Cheng roared.

……

"What did he call me?" The sealing knife that was retreating picked his ears and asked Fan Chuan on the side.

He ...... He said...... He's your aunt? ”

"Hah! You have bad ears. ”

"Aren't you too?"

The two laughed and led the army away.
