Lu Meng thought that with his outstanding command ability and more than four times the number of troops, he would definitely be able to capture Haidu, even if it might be a little more difficult in the process.

He didn't expect that Deng Ai's excellent ability was still above him, and the resistance was so tenacious that his attack was impeccable.

Looking at the front line of the city, one after another ladders were knocked down, and a famous soldier was shot, Lu Meng's face became more and more gloomy.

"Order Pan Zhang, concentrate all your strength on bombarding the city gate!" Lu Meng's eyes fell on the city gate and shouted loudly.

The order quickly spread to the front line and reached Pan Zhang's ears.

Pan Zhang personally rushed to the city gate, scolded his rushing convoy, and smashed the closed city gate again and again.

Deng Ai also noticed the focus of the enemy's attack, and personally rushed to the front line of the city tower and commanded the crossbowmen to suppress the enemy with benefits.

Arrows rained down.

The Jiangdong Army under the city, nearly 100 big shieldmen, holding high thick shields to form shield armor, protected the rushing car under it, and blocked all the sharp arrows that attacked.

"Get on the flying stone, smash me to death!" Deng Ai really drank.

The soldiers immediately smashed the flying stones the size of a bull's head down.

With the sound of shattering, the shield was ruthlessly smashed, and countless enemy soldiers were smashed to the head and burst by the flying stones, and the screams were endless.

The Jiangdong Army was an elite division, swearing not to retreat, one fell, and the other was reprimanded by Pan Zhang, and immediately filled the position.

The enemy's shield armor was never broken, and the rushing carts were able to ram the city gate without stopping.

Rumble! Rumble! Rumble!

With a loud bang, the city gate was faintly cracked, and the door frames on both sides could not be supported.

Pan Zhang's eyes were bloodshot with excitement, and he finally saw the possibility of breaking the city, and immediately transferred more crossbowmen to suppress the counterattack of the Wei army at the head of the city.

The situation began to turn against the Wei army.

"General, the city gate is about to run out!" A soldier rushed up from under the city and reported to Deng Ai in a panic.

Deng Ai glanced at the city a few times, his brows couldn't help but condense deeply, and his eyes were burning with melancholy.

He knew very well that if he didn't change his tactics, if he continued to consume like this, it would be sooner or later the city gate would be breached.

After all, Haiduan is not a strategic location, not to mention the city is in disrepair, and the city gate is extremely old, how can it withstand such a fierce impact from the enemy.

"Damn, there's no way, pour fire oil and release rockets!" Deng Ai gritted his teeth and shouted.

"General, as soon as this oil is released, it is likely that our city gate will also be set on fire." The lieutenant next to him was taken aback.

Deng Ai waved his hand and said: "If it is burned, it will be burned, as long as it can withstand this wave of enemy attacks, it is a big deal to block the city gate, guard him for a long time, and Lao Tzu will not go out of the city!" ”

Deng Ai was so resolute that the generals on the left and right did not dare to object, and immediately followed the order.

Soon, seven or eight soldiers rushed to the front line of the city gate with barrels of fire oil.

They withstood the rain of arrows from the enemy, and with all their might, they poured barrels of fire oil down.

Just before the Jiangdong Army below could react, rockets and torches had already been shot down.

Woo –

The flames rose into the air, and in an instant, the enemy's large shield was burned, and the screams rang out, and the Jiang soldiers hurriedly threw away the burning shield.

It was too late, and their weapons were already stained with fire oil, and they burst into flames at the slightest encounter.

In an instant, hundreds of enemy soldiers were burned to the ground, along with the huge rushing car.

The enemy forces are finally in disarray.

The soldiers who started the fire rolled on the ground, howling in pain, and the survivors were terrified, and dared to approach the city gates, throwing away their armor and fleeing in panic.

In the blink of an eye, the city gate cave was burned into a raging fire hole, and the fire soon spread to the city gate.

Seeing this scene in the distance, Lu Meng's face couldn't help but change slightly, and a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes, as if he didn't expect Deng Ai to have this trick.

Immediately, the corners of his mouth hooked up with a hint of sarcasm, "Deng Ai, you are finally desperate and use the last resort, very good, this city gate is burned down, I see what other means you have." ”

Lu Meng saw this, and Pan Zhang, who was directing the specific battles of the army in front, naturally also saw this.

He took a few steps back, a sneer hooked into the corners of his mouth, and sat and waited to watch the north gate of Haidusk burn to ashes.

Then he could wait for the fire to burn out, and then swagger his soldiers into the gateless city.

Lu Meng and Pan Zhang didn't know that Deng Ai had already scolded the soldiers, carried the soil and stones, and frantically filled the doorway.

The city gate was burning, but the Wei soldiers piled up baskets of earth and stones on the inside of the gate.

Deng Ai had the idea of coexisting and dying with Haiyang City.

Anyway, he had already scavenged enough grain and grass to guard for several months, and the city had its own water source from its own well, even if the city gate was sealed and completely cut off from the outside world, it would be enough to defend him for two or three months.

As for the situation three months later, Deng Ai was absolutely confident that his King of Wei had already captured Chaisang, and the siege of Haidun would be lifted by then.

Finally, a wall of earth and stone was sealed, cutting off the gates, which were already burning to the point of collapse.

Deng Ai breathed a sigh of relief, looked out of the city with a sarcastic gaze, and thought to himself Lao Tzu sealed the door, I see what other tricks you Lu Meng has.

Outside the city, Pan Zhang saw the city gate burn down, and was ready, waiting for his soldiers to rush in.

After a few seconds, he froze.

The city gate was burned down, but what appeared in front of him was not an open doorway, but a miraculous earthen wall.

"This ...... What's going on? ”

Pan Zhang looked at the earthen wall, stunned, and looked incredulous.

The thousands of Jiangdong soldiers were all dumbfounded, and they all looked confused.

Lu Meng, who was in the distance, vaguely saw this scene, couldn't help frowning, and hurriedly rode his horse and galloped to the city gate.

He finally couldn't hold his breath anymore and wanted to see for himself.

When Lu Meng came to the city gate, he couldn't help but gasp, and was so surprised that he opened his mouth slightly, with the same expression of disbelief.

"Deng Ai, this kid, actually gave the city gate to ...... Plugged up? ”

What does that mean?

Is he planning to isolate himself and turn the city into a dead city?

Lu Meng raised his head and looked at the city, as if he saw Deng Ai's sarcastic face.

Suddenly, his heart was shocked and he understood Deng Ai's intentions.

Blocking himself to death is clearly determined to live and die with the city, what kind of courage and courage does it have to be to make such a decision.

Moreover, Deng Ai must have been convinced of Su Zhe, believing that Su Zhe would definitely be able to capture Chaisang and relieve him of the siege of Haidusk before he ran out of food.

"This Deng Ai ......" Lu Meng sighed secretly, and in addition to surprise, there was also a faint hint of admiration between his eyebrows.

Even as an enemy, Lü Meng admired Deng Ai's methods and courage.

"Governor Lü, the man surnamed Deng actually sealed the city gate and blocked himself, what should we do?" Pan Zhang asked.

Lu Meng pondered for a moment, waved his hand and said: "I don't want this Deng Ai to have such courage, it is hopeless to capture Haiduan today, pass the order, Mingjin will withdraw his troops, and he will make plans again in the future." ”

With that, Lu Meng turned his horse and left.

Pan Zhang turned his head and glared at the city, a hundred reluctant, but helpless, so he had to order Mingjin to withdraw his troops.

Bell bell bell ~~

The golden sound suddenly sounded, resounding in the sky above the sea dusk city.

The Jiangdong Army, which could not be attacked, took a long breath and retreated one after another.

The Wei soldiers successfully forced the enemy back, and all of them were full of fighting spirit and spirits, waving the weapons in their hands and shouting, showing off their might to the enemy.

Deng Ai looked at the defeated enemy, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and the blood-stained silver spear was thrust into the ground, and then he took time to wipe the beads of sweat from his forehead.

"King Wei, with me Deng Ai here, you can rest assured that this sea dusk city is ten thousand, and the next thing is up to you."

Deng Ai looked up to the north and looked in the direction of Chaisang.

……

West of Chaisang, the Wei army camp.

The results of the battle in Sea Dusk City were soon sent to Su Zhe by the fine work that was ambushed outside the city at the speed of a flying horse.

It is clearly written in the intelligence that Deng Ai collected enough food and grass, and did not hesitate to close the gate of Haidun City, trapping himself in the dead city, and finally blocking the onslaught of Lu Meng's 20,000 troops.

Of course, Su Zhe understood that Deng Ai closed the city gate by himself, which was to show everyone that he wanted to guard the city of Haidun and swear to live and die with the city.

"What a Deng Ai, you have courage and courage, this king really didn't misunderstand you." Su Zhe laughed and admired, and showed the information in his hand to everyone.

When the generals saw this information, they were all impressed by Deng Ai and were amazed.

When Su Zhe sent Deng Ai to attack Haidusk before, Huang Zhong and other veterans still had some complaints about this.

It's not that they question Su Zhe's strategy, but they feel that Su Zhe really trusts Deng Ai too much, and he is afraid that Deng Ai can't bear such a big burden.

The result turned out that Su Zhe was really discerning, Deng Ai not only captured the city of sea sunset, but also defended the city of sea sunset, and all the performances were close to perfection.

At this time, all the generals were naturally interested in Deng Ai's ability, and they no longer had any doubts and were convinced.

For Su Zhe's ability to recognize people, they admired it even more, and they didn't dare to have any more suspicions.

"King Wei, that Sun Ce's best skill is to fight a good battle, the more unfavorable the situation is for him, the more anxious he is, now that Haidun City has been unable to attack for a long time, and Jiangdong's people's hearts are fluctuating, it is almost time for us to use the last step of discord, use Sun Ce's anxiety, and completely solve Yu Ji."

Jia Xu, who has always adhered to the principle of "if you don't ask, I won't tell", is rare at this time, and he actually took the initiative to speak to Su Zhe.

"Since Wen He has spoken, he must already have a plan, let's listen to it." Su Zhe smiled with a smile.

Jia Xu stroked his white beard and raised a finger: "The old strategy is actually just one word - money!" ”

"Money? Interesting, continue. ”

Jia Xu said unhurriedly: "Then Sun Ce has seven or eight suspicions about Ji must be at the moment, and the reason why he hasn't attacked him yet is just because there is no conclusive evidence, what we have to do is to send this certificate to Sun Ce." ”

"White and black are the best evidence, if Sun Ce can see a letter from Yu Ji and us, then Yu Ji can't wash it even if he jumps into the Yellow River, Sun Ce will kill him and then quickly."

"Therefore, the key lies in this secret letter, and this letter, Sun Ce cannot be obtained from others, it must be intercepted from Yu Ji's disciples, in order to confirm Yu Ji's secret communication with our 'criminal evidence'."

"Then it's simple now, King Wei only needs to send someone to infiltrate Chaisang, secretly buy a Yu Ji disciple for a huge amount of money, and let him help us complete this matter."

Jia Xu said lightly and lightly, revealing his strategy.

said a lot, in fact, the strategy is simple, that is, to use money to buy Yu Ji's body, and to blame Yu Ji.

"Jia Wenhe, I heard that the disciples around Yu Ji are all his loyal followers, are you really sure that you can buy them with money?" Huang Zhong questioned.

Jia Xu smiled disapprenously: "Most of Yu Ji's believers are from ordinary people, for them, the biggest belief is money, if they can't buy it, it can only be because there is not enough money." Haven't the old generals heard of a saying that money can make ghosts grind? ”

Huang Zhong was dumbfounded.

Su Zhe's eyes lit up, he laughed, and patted the case: "A good one who has money can make ghosts grind, but according to this king, being rich can not only make ghosts grind, but also call grinding ghosts, so act according to your poisonous scorpion plan." ”
