0608 Lookout
With Ma Zhong's oppressive and slow march, more and more powerful people fled to the city, and even their sons and nephews who stayed on the sidelines entered Liyang City.
This Jiangdong Army is menacing, and it is another posture that is ready to fight a tough battle.
Those places were strong and powerful, fearing that after the Jiangdong Army was defeated in the siege of the city, they turned to attack and disturb the localities. Now the elites of all ethnic groups are waiting in Liyang City to hold on. There is a shortage of manpower in each dock and village.
Under the panic of the people, the remaining heroes and strongmen have also entered Liyang City.
Feng Yi was overjoyed when he saw it, and hurriedly arranged for them to be assigned to various city gates to guard the palace.
The Liyang Army in Feng Yi's hands has more than 2,000 soldiers in six battalions, and counting these powerful forces, the total strength is close to more than 5,000 people.
Compared to the imperial court, where the three generals only raised an army of 7,000 in Hefei, Feng Yi was already proud enough.
What's more, Liyang City has clan power as the core and has strong cohesion. If you really want to fight until the mountains and rivers are exhausted, the people in Liyang City can be all soldiers.
However, what made Feng Yi a little uncertain was that this Eastern Route Army didn't seem to be in a hurry at all.
Just unhurried and dignified.
The distance from Hengjiangjin to Liyang City was only a few dozen miles, and this army walked for two days.
On the evening of the second day, Feng Yi was sitting anxiously on the city tower, listening to the sound of horses' hooves outside, Feng Yi hurriedly came out to watch.
Feng Yi came out of the city tower in a hurry, and almost collided with the herald who came to report the news.
The herald hurriedly knelt down and pleaded guilty, but at this moment, Feng Yi could not care about him.
When I got to the top of the city gate and looked down, I saw dozens of fast horses surrounded by a young man in red clothes at the bottom of the city.
Feng Yi secretly said in his heart, "It's here!" "I was a little nervous, but I was relieved.
In any case, it can be regarded as a result, otherwise it is really difficult for this Eastern Route Army to hang people's appetites like this.
The Jiangdong soldiers under the city were talking to the red-clothed young man, and from time to time they were pointing at the city wall.
Then, as if the gang had not seen the gist of anything, they rode their horses toward the northwest corner of the city.
Feng Yi saw that these guys were frivolous and unprepared, and immediately moved in his heart, and ordered loudly, "Zhang Wei, go and order troops quickly, and take advantage of the fact that these guys are defenseless to arrest these people." β
Zhang Wei listened to it for a while, and was about to go out to order troops and get people.
Wang Zhi hurriedly came up and said, "No! Lord, we don't know who is coming, how do we have to move troops? As long as the soldiers and horses move, then we will tear our faces. If we arrest some inconspicuous military attachΓ©, it will be too late for us to regret it. β
Zhang Wei listened to it and said dissatisfiedly, "Look at this posture, it's not the governor of the East Road, I'm afraid it's also the leader of his subordinates." Anyway, as long as you arrest people, you won't suffer any loss. β
Wang Zhi shook his head when he heard this, "Don't worry, Zhang Junhou, it's not us who should be in a hurry." Think about it, now that the battlefield on the Eastern Front is on the verge of breaking out, not to mention that Sun Quan is preparing to fight Hefei, it has spread all over Jiangdong, and even those of us who are closed to the news have heard of it. In my opinion, there is still a fight in this Jiangbei land. Why should we be the first bird, just wait quietly for the two sides to fight. β
Feng Yi also dispelled his previous thoughts when he heard this, and praised in public, "What Sima said is extremely true, let's spend it with them." I don't believe that these guys who crossed the river to fight can afford to spend more than us who sit on the ground. β
"But ......" Zhang Wei was still a little reluctant.
He glanced down and saw the cavalry stop there, and pointed to the northwest corner.
I couldn't help but sigh, "It's a pity." β
Naturally, it was Ma Zhong and others who came to watch the formation with the cavalry, and the red-clothed young man who was the first to embrace was Zhou Yin, the governor of the East Road.
Feng Yi and the others looked down from the city, and the young man in red looked majestic, but in fact, Zhou Yin's face had already turned pale and his whole body was shaking.
He never expected that Ma Zhong would be so bold and actually take such a small number of people to run under the enemy's city wall to watch the situation.
This requires the other party to be reckless, directly open the city, and take their wave of people.
Then it's a lot of fun!
Ma Zhong was not surrounded by others, but the soldiers in this trouble-relieving army.
Ma Zhong listened to the scout's report, this Liyang City has a strong fortress and ravines all over the place, and he really can't hold back the curiosity in his heart, and he came to explore the camp with all the soldiers.
Whoever expected to go, just go, but Ma Zhong also took Zhou Yin with him under the pretext of "going with the governor of the capital, and the teacher is famous".
Zhou Yin and Sun Kuang are both rich and noble sons, where have they experienced such a scene?
Then Ma Zhong almost made people stand up and took Zhou Yin on the horse.
Ma Zhong looked at the defense of Liyang City for a while, and saw that this fortification was extremely strict, and it had reached the level of some perversion.
At that moment, I couldn't help but be interested, and explained the advantages and disadvantages of these fortifications to the soldiers under him who had no strategy.
"I didn't expect this Feng Yi to still have a set of defenses, and this fortification almost used all the tricks he could think of. You have to learn a little harder, there are not many examples like this. β
Ma Zhong explained to those soldiers, but his mouth was dry, and when he looked back, except for Li Fei who was still listening carefully, the others didn't know where to put their eyes for a long time, but their expressions were very solemn.
After listening to it for a long time, Jun Hou Kong Jiao couldn't help but ask, "My lord, this Liyang City is run by Feng Yi like an iron wall, and they are all in the same heart, like an iron plate. This day, time, place, people, we don't occupy any of them. Now that I want to fight to the death with this Liyang army, my subordinates and subordinates really have no bottom in their hearts. β
Ma Zhong looked at Kong Jiao and smiled slightly, "Don't worry about Kong Jun, everything here is in my hands." Although these fortifications are old-fashioned, there are pros and cons to things. So many fortifications have given this place huge advantages, and the same has accumulated huge disadvantages. You can listen to me today, and you don't have to worry too much. β
Zhou Yin listened on the side, his eyes flashed, and he whispered to Sun Kuang next to him.
"I'm afraid our military advisor has a lot of plans."
"Oh? How so? Sun Kuang didn't know why Zhou Yin suddenly said such a sentence.
Zhou Yin thought for a while and said, "I always listen to my brother's chatter, saying that what is real is false, and what is virtual is real...... is like this, right?" β
Sun Kuang nodded, "That's right, there is such a sentence." β
Zhou Yin looked at Sun Kuang and asked directly, "Then Sun Kuang, tell me yourself, is the military advisor doing this now, is it false and real, or is it real and false?" β
Sun Kuang was stunned for a moment and asked, "Why do you say this?" β
Zhou Yin endured it for a long time, and saw that those soldiers were following Ma Zhong to guide the defense of Liyang City, so he stole a gap and whispered, "Look at his pretentious posture, I'm afraid he is very weak-hearted." β
