The three fathers and sons of the Lu family have already prepared on the city wall full of ash bottles and rolling wood, what kind of banmen ding fierce fire oil, golden soup juice, etc., etc., and they have done enough to prepare materials for a devastating blow to them when the Lu family's army attacks.

As a result, they suddenly found that the soldiers of the Lu family's army were rumbling from their four gates, and then they lined up in a phalanx and stood quietly outside a stone's throw away.

Then, right behind them, countless men with shovels and pickaxes came over happily, and began to dig the trenches in sections. As the saying goes, there are many people who are easy to do, and these people are not as passive as other people, but they are sweating like rain and working in full swing.

After digging a section, he ran down with a shovel and continued to receive the task, the long trench outside the city was rapidly extending at a speed visible to the naked eye, but in just one day, there was a huge trench, which surrounded the entire county town, cut off the transportation links inside and outside the city, and the most important thing was to cut off the transportation of firewood and grain, and surrounded the Zhuojun city into a dead city.

This is also a clear sight in the siege war, that is called the lock city method, which is the most cruel one, that is, through this long-term siege method, the city will be trapped to death, and finally the city will run out of firewood and food, and finally all the people and soldiers in the city will starve to death.

Looking at the people who got up early and worked hard in the dark, Lu Kuang wondered at that time: "Won't these people be passive and slack off?" It seems that they are still very energetic, scrambling to work, and at the same time, they didn't see the Lu Jiajun escorting and whipping, nor did they run away, what is the situation? ”

This really can't help but wonder that over the years, in the war, the people are most afraid of arresting the people, these people not only do the hardest and most tiring work, but also eat the worst food, whipping and scolding, and from time to time they have to be taken out by the officials and soldiers under an inexplicable and wonderful excuse to show the public, and once the war is tense, they will be stuffed with a wooden stick, drive them to the front line, to consume the enemy's equipment and combat power.

Therefore, it is already a very normal phenomenon for the captured people to be passive and slacking off, and it is even more common to run away at all times, but looking at these people of Lu Peng, it is the opposite, how can this not make people feel confused?

Lu Weixuan explained to his father with a smile: "Father, you may not know that Lu Peng's people were not arrested, but hired for money, not only have a salary in peacetime, but also eat and drink the same as soldiers. At the same time, Lu Peng also stipulated that as soon as the war starts, the people will be immediately withdrawn from the battlefield, even if the battle is difficult, the army must ensure the safe evacuation of those people, and even if the people are killed or injured, they will be placed according to the most generous pension, so you say, why are these people not so highly motivated. ”

Lu Kuang sighed enviously: "We can't even pay the soldiers' salaries here, the usual food is just a gruel, and his daughter Lu Peng even pays her husband, why is this kid so rich." ”

Lu Weixuan said with a smile: "Lu Peng's Youzhou is already outrageously rich, with all kinds of workshops and countless taxes, even if you don't talk about these, just his two salt fields, he earns no less than 100 million dollars every year, not to mention that he has just completely exterminated the Wuhuan people, according to heard, the captured cattle, sheep and horses alone are no less than a few million, this guy directly sold to merchants from all over the country, and the money obtained has far exceeded the entire financial revenue of the Han Dynasty." Then he said with envy: "It is said that the treasury in Youzhou has been overturned several times, but it still can't hold the money." ”

Lu Xiang also said with envy and jealousy: "No matter how rich you are, you can't toss it like this, if it goes on like this, it will cost him all sooner or later." ”

As a result, Lu Weixuan shook his head and said: "Lu Peng doesn't think so, he has a truth that I have always pondered and not understood, that is, the meat rots in the pot, and he thinks that the money he spends will eventually flow back into his pocket." ”

The three of them were confused together, and they really couldn't understand this kind of truth.

Since I can't figure it out, I don't want to, "I see that the enemy's posture is to prepare for a long-term siege, so that we will be completely passive, I will now rush out of the city with a group of men and horses, not trying to kill the enemy, as long as I kill and wound some people, so that those people lose morale, and the goal will be accomplished." ”

Lu Kuang's idea, of course, no one objected, although he had fewer people than Lu Peng, but he couldn't fight without fighting, everyone just stared at each other with big eyes and stared at each other. In particular, once the enemy's long trench is completed, his own Zhuojun city will become a dead city, and after a long time, the firewood and food will be cut off, which will be a huge disaster, and it is quite necessary to keep a gap to the outside world.

Of course, Lu Weixuan couldn't let his father go out in person, so he took the initiative to ask for help, lit up a thousand elites, and went out of the city gate directly, preparing to give Lu Peng's people a dismount.

As a result, as soon as the city gate was opened, there were immediately personnel from the Lu family army, and they began to organize those people to evacuate to the back, and then the square formation in front of the city gate suddenly roared: "Wind-" Then there was a buzzing bowstring sound, and a huge javelin-like arrow rushed to the face.

Lu Weixuan was shocked at the time, and immediately ordered the shield hand to move forward, but those shields were like paper paste under the blow of such a giant arrow, and they shattered in an instant, and those giant arrows pierced one soldier after another without hindrance.

"Archers, shoot at the enemy." Lu Weixuan issued orders loudly.

A group of archers immediately rushed forward and drew their bows to shoot arrows, but unfortunately, the range of their bows and arrows was only half of the opponent's, and they fell to the ground weakly, and the opponent flew another round of giant swords, which immediately swept away this group of archers.

Lu Weixuan was completely shocked, this was blocked by someone and beaten, and he had no power to fight back at all, if he continued to charge like this, it would be like a moth to a fire, that would be suicide.

Seeing that he couldn't even rush out of the city gate, Lu Weixuan had to order to collect his troops and count his subordinates, a thousand soldiers were just in the blink of an eye, there were less than three hundred, fortunately, the other party did not take the opportunity to snatch the city gate, as long as he did not go out of the city gate, the other party watched so quietly, let the city gate open, and there was no intention of attacking.

Lu Weixuan understood the other party's purpose at that time: "Lu Peng is using himself as bait to catch the lord's big fish." ”

Back in the city, and immediately reported this judgment to his father and uncle, Lu Kuang and Lu Xiang glanced at each other, and suddenly burst into laughter together, "If Lu Peng really has this kind of thought, then he is not far from defeat." ”
