Chapter 301: Please enter the urn
Although Su Zhe cut off the ears and nose of Lu Bu's messenger, it was still difficult to dispel the anger in the hearts of the generals.
They are all iron-blooded, how can they tolerate Lu Bu's arrogance, so no one in their eyes.
"Lord, the old man is willing to fight this old life and fight to the death with Lu Bu!" Huang Zhong was indignant.
The rest of the generals were all full of fighting spirit and asked for battle.
Su Zhe's heart was relieved, this was exactly the scene he wanted to see.
Of course, he knew that the reason why Lu Bu sent envoys to rampant was to use the method of agitation to lure him into battle.
And the reason why Lu Bu wanted to fight a quick battle was precisely because he lacked food.
Su Zhe deliberately let the messenger run rampant, just taking the opportunity to arouse the anger of the generals.
Only anger can make them burst out with double energy.
Su Zhe raised his hand and suppressed his indignation until the city was quiet.
At this time, he said lightly: "Don't worry, I won't let Lu Bu be arrogant for too long, soon, Lu Bu will pay the price, but if you want Lu Bu to pay, you don't need to make a move." β
The generals looked at each other and couldn't understand the meaning of Su Zhe's words.
Su Zhe flicked his hand and shouted: "Order the whole army, go out from the south gate at night tonight, and abandon the city with me." β
Abandon the city!
As soon as these words came out, Huang Zhong and other generals were all shocked and shocked.
"Lord, Bowang City is the only barrier north of Wandu, let's just give up without a fight, wouldn't we expose Wandu to Lu Bu's troops?"
Xu Huang was puzzled and was the first to stand up and question.
The rest of the generals also nodded their heads, expressing the same puzzlement.
The corners of Su Zhe's mouth raised a treacherous color, and he sneered: "Don't worry, how can I give up Bowang City to Na Lu Bu for nothing, and abandon the city to him, just to make him pay a heavy price." β
The generals were puzzled, and they couldn't guess Su Zhe's deep meaning at all, only Pang Tong on the side smiled but didn't say anything, and there was a bit of mystery in his eyes.
"Okay, you don't have to ask any more questions, let's do it quickly." Su Zhe flicked his hand.
Huang Zhong and other generals had no choice but to press the fox and follow the lead.
β¦β¦
When Su Zhe quietly withdrew his troops, the messenger who had his ear and nose cut off had fled back to the camp in embarrassment.
The messenger had his ears and nose cut off, and there was no doubt that this was Su Zhe's humiliation of Lu Bu Chiguoguo.
Lu Bu was furious and immediately ordered the whole army to storm Bowang City.
This time, even Chen Gong couldn't move Lu Bu's anger.
The next day, before dawn, Lu Bu led an army of more than 50,000 to kill the north gate of Bowang, preparing to raze Bowang City to the ground.
Lu Bu thought that he would face Su Zhe's desperate resistance, and in this battle, he would have to pay a heavy price before he could capture Bowang.
He is ready to do whatever it takes.
But what surprised Lu Bu was that when he and his army reached the north gate, they saw that half of the Soviet army at the head of the city was missing, except for the scattered banners, there was no one in sight.
Moreover, the city gate of the north gate has also been opened, and the drawbridge has been lowered, as if it is an empty city with empty buildings.
Looking at the empty city, Lu Bu's eyes lit up with a hint of pride, and he snorted coldly: "Could it be that Su Zhe's kid, who was afraid of the power of Ben Hou's soldiers, was so frightened that he abandoned the city and fled?" β
The generals on the left and right have agreed to say yes.
Chen Gong said: "General, that Su Zhe is the head of the Nine Wonders, treacherous, I heard that he once set up an empty city plan to retreat from the enemy, I am only afraid that he will repeat his old tricks, we better be careful." β
"The public station is reasonable, this kid is extremely deceitful, and he must be guarded against." Lu Bu nodded in agreement.
At that moment, Lu Bu did not dare to take it lightly, and ordered the whole army to line up and not relax, and at the same time sent several teams of scouts to venture into the city to spy on them.
It didn't take long for the scout to send back news that had excited Lu Bu.
Bowang City is indeed an empty city, not only the people have been relocated, but also half of the Soviet army is gone, leaving only a pile of ordnance and broken flags that cannot be taken away.
"This kid really escaped." Lu Bu sneered, and Fang Tian waved his halberd, "The whole army has entered the city." β
The order was handed down, and Lu Bu led his army, entered the city of Bowang without blood, and planted his banner of "Lu" at the head of the city.
At the same time, Lu Bu sent scouts to reconnoiter south of Bowang, and soon received information that Su Zhe really retreated twenty miles south to the village.
This news made Lu Bu even more convinced that Su Zhe had to retreat because he was afraid of him, and chose to fight again with his back to Wandu.
At that moment, Lu Bu was relieved and boldly put half of the soldiers and horses in Bowang City, and the rest of the soldiers and horses camped in the city.
Immediately afterwards, Lu Bu sent generals to go deep into the countryside near Bowang to loot the people and see if they could grab some grain and grass.
β¦β¦
At nightfall.
Tens of thousands of Lu soldiers, with the excitement of winning Bowang without blood, fell asleep and had a good dream.
No one noticed that in the mountains and forests to the west of Bowang City, countless bloody eyes were staring at the city.
It's like looking at a tomb.
Su Zhe held a leaf in his mouth and a pair of starry eyes, staring coldly at Bowang City not far away, with a hint of sarcasm written on his face.
In the middle of the night, the sky and the earth were dark.
The timing is just right.
Su Zhe spit out the branch in his mouth and shouted: "It's almost time, Xu Gongming, follow me out of the forest." β
Su Zhe rode out first, Xu Huang was suspicious, and followed Su Zhe out of the forest with three hundred people who dared to die.
A group of men and horses sneaked up and touched a mound less than two hundred paces away from Bowang City.
This distance is already the limit distance that the lights at the head of the city shine on, and further on, the patrol at the head of the city will find the traces.
Su Zhe stopped and glanced at the soldiers on the left and right, and the soldiers quickly pushed a stone under the mound.
A dark hole comes into view.
Xu Huang's expression was shocked, and he looked at Su Zhe in surprise, not understanding what this meant for a while.
Su Zhe pointed to the entrance of the cave and said unhurriedly: "Now we can finally uncover the secret, this tunnel was secretly dug a few days ago, so that the cave can be sneaked into Bowang City without knowing it." β
Xu Huang suddenly realized, and a trace of surprise couldn't help but swell up in his eyes, and then he said worriedly: "Although there is this tunnel, we only have this bit of people, even if we sneak in, I'm afraid we won't be able to make any waves." β
"Three hundred men are enough." The corners of Su Zhe's mouth raised a sly smile, "I not only dug this tunnel, but also sent people to scatter firewood, grass, saltpeter and fire oil everywhere on the roofs of the houses in the city, you and your team of men and horses only need to sneak into the city and set me a fire." β
Xu Huang finally realized this, and his face instantly swelled with ecstasy.
Only then did he understand why Su Zhe was not angry in the face of Lu Bu's arrogance, but took the initiative to give up Bowang City.
It turned out that Su Zhe had secretly turned Bowang City into a trap and abandoned the city in order to give Lu Bu a "please enter the urn".
When the time comes, the LΓΌ army will definitely be in civil strife and abandon the city in all directions, while their army is ambushed outside the city, just to deal a heavy blow to the enemy.
This is the clever plan that Pang Tong offered to Su Zhe.
Xu Huang, who came to his senses, took a deep look at Su Zhe and said in admiration: "I should have guessed that there must be a clever plan, how could I easily give up Bowangcheng, it turned out that such a big trap was set up for Lu Bu." β
Su Zhe was not too proud, but said with a straight face: "The key to the success of this strategy lies in Gongming, you and these hundreds of soldiers, if you fight tonight, I will ask Gongming to you." β
Xu Huang's blood was furious, he hurriedly arched his hand, and said resolutely: "Lord, don't worry, I will burn Bowang City tonight and turn them upside down!" β
"Good, good!" Su Zhe nodded with relief, "Without further ado, let's go as soon as possible, I'll sit outside the city and watch you catch fire." β
Xu Huang didn't hesitate at all, he took the lead and got into the hole first.
None of the hundreds of people who dared to die were afraid, and they followed closely behind, carrying the torches they had prepared, and went into the hole.
A moment later, more than 300 people disappeared into the dark cavern.
Su Zhe turned over his horse, looked up at Bowang City, turned his horse around, and shouted happily: "The fire in the city is together, Lu Bu will escape from the north gate, let's go, come with me to meet the so-called number one military general in the world for a while!" β
