In the seventeenth year of Jian'an of the Han Dynasty, from the 15th to the 25th of March in the spring, Liu He commanded a total of 200,000 troops from four different directions.

Although the four armies set out at different times and the distances between them and the main force of the Chu army, it was surprising that these four forces engaged the main force of the Chu army at almost the same time.

"If the order goes down, the armies of all walks of life must hold out for a month, and if they can hold out until the specified date, even if they surrender, they will not be held accountable for their crimes, and they will be returned to their families, and if they surrender early, they will be convicted of treason, and their families will be sent to the army."

In this case, Cao Pi could only hope for Sima Yi's reinforcements in the Wa Kingdom, so he strictly ordered the defenders everywhere to complete the task of holding out for a month.

However, this task was really difficult to complete, because the attack of the Han army was very fierce, especially the Yanzhou army led by Liyi and the Yangzhou army led by Zhou Yu, the attack was very fierce, which made the defenders suffer heavy losses and misery.

The team led by Ko Yi marched from Taishan County to attack Langya County in Xuzhou, and the famous general of the Chu army was stationed here, Le Jin, who had experienced a hundred battles, governed the army strictly, and had rich battlefield experience, and was known as the general of Cao Ren and Xiahou Tang this time, and in history it was one of the five good generals of the Cao Wei group, so from this point of view, Cao Pi sent Le to garrison here, which is definitely a very wise choice.

However, this is only in the case of the two sides being evenly matched, or even if the Chu army is slightly weaker, but the current situation is that the gap between the two sides is extremely large, and there are 50,000 well-trained elite soldiers under the command of Lu Yi, while there are only 10,000 under the command of Lejin, and even if there are 10,000 people, only 5,000 are elite soldiers, and the others are newly recruited recruits, which still looks like that on the surface, but when they really arrived on the battlefield, they were frightened, and their combat effectiveness was almost equal to nothing.

In addition, Lejin forced the local people to go to the city to assist in the defense, which increased the number of defenders at the head of the city to 20,000, but even so, the gap between the two sides was still relatively large.

Fortunately, Lejin has extremely rich combat experience, and the entire city is defended without leakage, even though Koji Yi is good at attacking, but after launching two fierce attacks in a row, Langya City is also firmly in the hands of the Chu army.

Of course, this does not mean that the Chu army has won, these two attacks cost the Chu army at least 3,000 men, and more than 1,000 of them are the most elite sergeants under the command of Le Jin.

"In just one day, the elite of our army has lost thirty percent, if it continues like this, it is estimated that our army will not be able to hold even three days, let alone thirty days? However, the other party is also a veteran general in the army, and he has extremely rich combat experience, and he knows all my various routines and strategies very well, and it is simply difficult to delay it for a month to succeed. ”

Seeing the situation in front of him, Le Jin frowned and sighed, he had been thinking hard to see if there was a way to complete the task of the main bus agent, and try to delay it as much as possible.

"Alas, it is difficult for a good woman to cook without rice, if I give me 50,000 elite soldiers, I will dare to go to the front of the two armies to fight with Koji Yidignified, if I am given 30,000 troops, I also dare to guarantee that I will win in the end, and even if I give me 10,000 elites, I can guarantee that I will hold on for a month, but now this number of troops is too reluctant. If you want to hold on for a month, you will definitely not be able to fight the enemy, you can only outwit it. ”

But even so, the real outwitting is not something that can be done by talking, after all, as the commander of one side, the intelligence of the other party will never be low, and it is definitely not so easy for you to successfully deceive the other party.

Raiding the camp is just an old routine, and if you want to carry out a surprise attack, I am afraid that the only result can only be that you are trapped in it, and it is simply self-defeating to fight out of the city, and as for other conventional counterattack methods, you can't take it out.

"Maybe in the end, deception is the only way out." Le Jin's eyes lit up, and he thought silently for a long time, and finally muttered: "If even I believe that I am sincere this time, I don't believe that Koji will not believe in my sincerity, but this matter must be persisted until the mountains and rivers are exhausted before it can be effective, so the next perseverance is inevitable." ”

Thinking of this, Le Jin gritted his teeth and secretly made up his mind.

In the days that followed, Ko Yi still blindly attacked, Le Jin gritted his teeth and defended, seven or eight days passed in a row, in these seven or eight days, Ou Yi launched no less than twenty offensives, although each one seemed to have spare strength, but the losses caused to the Chu army were real.

In the continuous offensive of these days, the 20,000 army of the Chu army lost a total of 15,600 people, of which the elite soldiers of Lejin lost nearly eighty percent, and the original 5,000 soldiers won less than 1,000 people, and almost everyone was injured, all of them hung colors, even Lejin was so brave and good at fighting, but also was shot to the shoulder by Koji Yi an arrow during a siege.

"I really didn't expect that this Koji Yi would be so difficult to deal with, and he almost consumed my strength, hehe, but do you think that I will obediently admit defeat in this way? And then comes the real show. ”

Le Jin sneered secretly, after some calculation, he knew that his own losses were too much now, and he could no longer withstand such a fierce attack from the other party, and now if he proposed to surrender, even he would believe that it was true, let alone the other party's generals.

So Le Jin wrote a letter overnight, sent his henchmen with the letter, came out of the city, and delivered the letter to Liyi's hands.

"I understand General Le's sincerity, and I will send people to continue to contact him." Koji Yi read the letter for a long time, and finally said to the messenger.

Although the messenger was sent by Lejin, he didn't know that Lejin was actually a fraudulent surrender, and thought that he was really going to surrender, and now he saw that Liyi accepted the surrender, and he was relieved in his heart, and said to Liyi: "So that you can agree, this is really a great kindness, which is equivalent to giving hundreds of people in the county a chance to live, so that Jun's good thoughts, countless people survived, and the villain thanked the envoy for his magnanimity on behalf of the Langya army and people." ”

"I don't know the name of this gentleman?" Koji Yi had a good impression of the messenger, and he didn't dare to slack off, so he asked with a faint smile.

"The villain's name is Wang Xiang, the word Xiu Zheng, Langya people." The young man replied respectfully.

"It turns out that Mr. is the purest and filial piety of the king of Hugh Zheng, Mr. is sick and seeking carp to be famous all over the world, and he has been famous for a long time, and he can't wait to see it, but he didn't expect to see it today, and he is really fortunate to have three lives."

As soon as Lu Yi heard that the other party was Wang Xiang, he was immediately in awe, admired Wang Xiang, and then said: "Since it is Mr. who is coming, then let's tell the truth, my lord has already explained, as long as Le Wenqian is willing to surrender, he will definitely let him be this Langya Taishou, and he will accumulate meritorious qualifications in the future, and it is not impossible for this Xuzhou Taishou." ”
