Chapter 376: Fraudulent City

Chen Ji is dead, and some of the remaining sergeants surrender directly, and some are still resisting stubbornly, but this is nothing for the overall situation.

It didn't take long for the battle of Joyama to end, and this battle can be described as a landslide victory.

Since Chen Ji did not resist at the beginning, but chose to flee, the sergeants under his command had no morale at all.

In the face of the strangulation of Zhang Fei and Ma Chao's joint army, there was no resistance at all.

After calling a few surrendered sergeants, Zhao Qian asked about the situation in Shangcaicheng, and knew that Shangcaicheng was guarded by Chen Ji's staff officer Li Ji at this time, so he summoned Zhang Fei and Ma Chao to discuss the strategy of breaking the city.

"Big brother, directly take advantage of the victory to attack Shang Cai, Chen Ji is dead, can Shang Cai still hold it?" Zhang Fei said nonchalantly.

Ma Chao also nodded and said, "That's it, this Chen Ji will be dead, and Shangcai City can't afford to make a few waves." ”

Zhao Qian pondered for a while, but shook his head and said, "If you attack Shangcai, it is certain that the city will be broken, but our army will also have casualties, which is not my original intention." ”

"I don't know what the master's plan is, but can you break Cai?" Ma Chao asked, since Zhao Qiandu said so, there must be a way.

Sure enough, Zhao Qian nodded and said, "Fraud City!" ”

"Fraud?" Zhang Feizhang couldn't figure it out and asked, "How can you cheat?" ”

Zhao Qian smiled slightly, but did not answer Zhang Fei's words, but rode his horse to the previous sergeants who escorted the "grain and grass".

"General, we did as you commanded." The sergeants hurriedly said.

Zhao Qian nodded and said, "Well, you have done a good job, and when you break through Shangcai City, this general will have a heavy reward!" ”

"Thank you, General!"

"Thank you, General!"

"Don't be too busy yet, there is still a task that needs to be completed." Zhao Qian interrupted them and said.

The sergeant with the spirit hurriedly said: "The general has an order, we will not give up until we die, and we will definitely live up to the general's love!" ”

"Never give up!"

"Live up to the general!"

Zhao Qian smiled slightly and said, "Okay, you wait and listen to General Ben's arrangement!" ”

Subsequently, Zhao Qian told these sergeants about his own strategic arrangements, and after hearing this, Zhang Fei and Ma Chao next to him gradually understood what Zhao Qian meant.

I saw that the sergeants who had escorted the "grain and grass" before changed into the clothes of Sergeant Chen Ji, and then pushed the "grain cart" and marched in the direction of Shangcaicheng.

Zhao Qian, on the other hand, left some people to guard the prisoners, and led the remaining sergeants to follow the people in front of him not far away.

On the wall of Shangcai City, Li Ji stood on it, looking at the pitch black in the distance.

Although he suggested that Chen Ji send troops to rob the grain team, Chen Ji had not come back at this moment, and Li Ji's heart couldn't help beating a drum, could he really fall for Zhao Qian's strategy?

"Someone's coming!"

A sergeant suddenly shouted on the city wall, and Li Ji perked up and hurriedly looked in the direction pointed by the sergeant.

It's just that Li Ji's eyesight is obviously inferior to that sergeant, and what he sees is still pitch black.

However, Li Ji didn't dare to blink, staring at that place, and sure enough, a moment later, a group of people appeared.

As the team approached, Li Ji recognized the outfit of his own people at that time, but he didn't see Chen Ji's figure.

It didn't take long for the procession to come to the city gate, and one of the leaders shouted, "Brother on the city wall, hurry up and open the city gate, and we will bring back the grain and grass." ”

Hearing this, the guards on the city wall were about to go down to open the city gate, but Li Ji suddenly raised his hand and stopped: "Slow, you can't see clearly in the dark, beware of fraud!" ”

As soon as Li Ji said this, the guard thought about it, and it made sense, so he stopped and asked, "What should I do?" ”

"Ask them why General Chen didn't come back with him." Li Ji commanded.

The guard was obedient, nodded, and shouted to the city, "What about General Chen?" Why didn't you see General Chen? ”

"After we robbed the grain and grass, we were discovered by Zhao Qian, and when we came back, we were pursued, and General Chen led the army to break off." The sergeant under the city hurriedly responded.

The guard didn't have any idea, tilted his head and looked at Li Ji next to him, asking him to make a decision.

Li Ji didn't believe this, because he knew Chen Ji better, with Chen Ji's guts, how could he stay and break off? If he really encountered Zhao Qian's pursuers, Chen Ji would definitely run faster than anyone else!
