Chapter 4: The Battle of the City Gate
With this walk, the hall of at least a few hundred square meters suddenly quieted down, leaving Yang Mu alone.
Thinking about it, I feel aggrieved, and I finally crossed over to become an emperor, even if I don't have a high match like the seventy-two concubines of the three palaces and six courtyards, I live a boy's day and wait for death, and it's okay to practice the copy of the micro-service private visit or something, right?
However, not only is the country a small country, but the lowest configuration is even the game time.
No matter how awesome the player is, he can't return to the sky, right?
"No matter! If you come here, you will be safe, you have been a bachelor for more than 20 years in your previous life, and you haven't mixed up a little fame in the year of establishment, which can be regarded as a wretch. When I came here, I at least delivered a wife and became an emperor once, since God has given me a chance, I should cherish it! ”
Yang Mu sighed, gritted his teeth, lifted his robe, and ran out of the palace.
Next, surrounded by a small group of guards, he boarded the dragon chariot and went straight to the city gate.
Speeding all the way, the so-called dragon chariot is a carriage, more bumpy than the bus, Yang Mu lifted the curtain and looked out the window, it can be said that the city is full of panic, the bustling street is a mess, every family is closed, not to mention the pawn dealer, not even a dog can be seen.
After about twenty minutes, he finally arrived at the city gate.
"This is the wall?" Yang Mu frowned, it had nothing to do with the towering and steep Xiongguan in his imagination, but it was like a city wall during the filming of Hengdian, and it was even lower.
"The last general, Sima Hong, see Your Majesty!" An armored general rushed over and fell to his knees.
"What's the situation?" Yang Mu asked.
"Tell Your Majesty that the enemy army is stationed three miles outside the city, and is burying pots to make food, and the vanguard general has led his army to invade the city several times, threatening to attack the city in the afternoon."
"Have you ever cut down trees and built a camp?"
"This ...... No, the enemy army is very manic, and the soldiers eat and live in the open air, and it is inevitable to win our city. ”
Yang Mu nodded, the third prince of the enemy country was indeed arrogant, and he didn't even build a camp well, it seemed that he was going to attack the city before dark, and then spend the night after burning and looting in the city.
"Let's go up to the top of the city and have a look."
"Your Majesty, you can't, Your Majesty!" Sima Hong stopped him and anxiously admonished: "Your Majesty forgive your sins, please listen to the words of the last general!" There are scouts patrolling the city, and if His Majesty ascends the gates, he will be discovered, and the enemy will attack him. Now that our army is weak, General Wei Lao has transferred 3,000 soldiers, if the enemy army has any abnormal movements, we have no power to resist! ”
"The general doesn't have to worry, the matter of General Wei Lao transferring the soldiers and generals is my will, and I have my own arrangements."
"Your Majesty's will?"
Sima Hong was stunned, although he was a martial artist, he had more or less heard of some of the situation of His Majesty the Emperor, to put it nicely, he was incompetent, in fact, he was a faint monarch, in this period of life and death, how could General Wei listen to the orders of His Majesty the Emperor? Why did nearly half of the soldiers have to be transferred, isn't defending the city the first priority at this time?
Seeing that this general named Sima Hong looked dazed and puzzled, Yang Mu sighed silently, it seemed that he was going to have to talk again.
So, Yang Mu acted as a magic stick again, and mysteriously told the story he made up again.
Sure enough, as soon as Sima Hong heard this, his reaction was similar to that of Wei Zhongquan, and he was so excited that he shouted long live.
Yang Mu was very satisfied with his reaction, gave another instruction, explained the plan, and then climbed to the city tower.
Under the walls of five or six meters high, there was a meandering moat, and in the distance in an open wilderness, a group of enemy scouts on horseback were scattered in various places.
Not long after Yang Mu ascended the city tower, he saw some of the scouts riding away, obviously reporting the news.
"Your Majesty, do you want to go down to the city tower to prevent the enemy from hiding arrows?" Sima Hong asked on the side.
"It doesn't matter, at such a long distance, even if the enemy army has a fierce general who pierces Yang in a hundred steps, he can't hurt me." Yang Mu waved his hand and said: "You immediately order to go down, remove all the banners, send more soldiers to walk around on the city wall, create the illusion that there are many people, and the rest of the people are responsible for their own responsibilities, and if you encounter any accidents, you are not allowed to make loud noises, and those who violate the order will be beheaded!" ”
"The last general commands!" Sima Hong was ordered to order the heralds, trotted all the way along the city wall, and went around giving orders.
After a while, the little eunuch Shen An ran up sweating profusely, followed by a few people, holding a piano and a set of utensils.
Yang Mu nodded, so he set up the incense case, sat by the railing, and began to pretend to play the piano.
About 30 minutes later, I saw smoke and dust billowing at the mouth of the gorge in the distance, and a large army drove over, with a traditional Chinese character "Zheng" written on the big flag, followed by more than 40 phalanxes, each phalanx had four or five hundred people, chariots, flags, and spears, all placed outside the moat, just like a military parade.
It's just that compared with the military parade on TV, the military discipline of the 20,000-strong army is too far behind, the soldiers move differently, staggering, and some people talk in the ranks, like a vegetable market.
It sounds like an army of 20,000, but in fact it is just a few thousand regular troops leading a large group of peasant soldiers.
A chariot slowly came out and stopped at the front of the formation.
"Little Emperor, today is the day of your country's demise! Hurry up and surrender the city, maybe as soon as the prince is happy, he will spare your dog's life! Zhuang Kang sat on the chariot, extremely arrogant, and shouted at the city wall.
"Boom!"
"How can it be!" Sima Hong on the side was furious, drew his sword, and looked resentful: "Your Majesty, please allow me to have an elite soldier to fight out of the city and fight to the death with the thief!" ”
"Stand down!"
"Yes...... Your Majesty, the Lord humiliates the ministers to death, this thief is not removed, and I, Sima Hong, have no shame to live in the world! ”
"Do what you do." Yang Mu said lightly.
Sima Hong was shocked, and then he remembered what His Majesty the Emperor had confessed, so he put the sword back in its sheath and stood aside in a sneer.
In fact, Yang Mu's countermeasure is very simple, there is only one word - wait.
Since the enemy army is an arrogant soldier, then find a way to provoke it, and since the enemy commander is ambitious and talented, and his eyes are above the top, he will make a look of underestimating him.
A group of people who have lost their minds, plus a commander who has lost their minds, is not far from destruction, and any pocket can make it jump and drill into it!
Facts have proved that this trick is really effective, and at this time, on the chariot under the city, Zheng Kang was already trembling with anger and was furious.
In Zheng Kang's eyes, what qualifications does a little emperor who is about to die have to be so arrogant? If you don't reply, you can just sit on the city tower and burn incense and play the piano as if nothing happened, leisurely!
Is there still an army of 20,000 in the eyes of this prince?
Immediately, Zheng Kang drew his long sword and was about to give the order to attack the city.
"Wait! His Royal Highness the Third Prince is angry! At this time, the military advisor next to him stood up and stopped him.
"Why are the military advisors holding each other? Do you want to see the joke of this prince! Zheng Kang snorted coldly, this military master was assigned to him by his father, and he had been chattering and pointing in his ear for several days, which was very annoying.
"Your Highness, I'm afraid that the enemy army is cheating!" The military advisor looked gloomy and admonished: "I have heard for a long time that the little emperor of Cangguo does not learn and has no skills, and is as timid as a mouse, such a faint monarch, but now he is standing on the city tower burning incense and playing the piano, and regards my army as nothing, isn't it strange?" ”
Zheng Kang frowned, the military advisor was right, he saw that there was no flag on the city tower, but there were faint soldiers moving, it really seemed that there was an ambush.
"Okay, this prince can see clearly, you don't need to talk too much!" Zheng Kang waved his hand impatiently and ordered the whole army to stand by and wait for a while before making a move.
Another hour passed, seeing that it was noon, the sun was scorching, the corporal was sweating profusely, and they hadn't eaten lunch yet, and the complaints were everywhere, Zheng Kang couldn't help but be a little anxious.
"Strategist, can you hear clearly, what is the dog emperor playing on the city tower?"
"Right now, the little emperor of Cangguo is already desperate, and listening to the sound of the piano is also chaotic, and what does it seem to be in his mouth...... The end of the vast world is my love, at the foot of the green mountains...... Flowers are blooming? ”
