Cheng Biting Jin's task is to feint and attack Lishi.

Most of the teams led by him and Pei Yuanshao were Taihang bandits.

The bandits are familiar with mountain warfare, and they climb mountains and mountains as if they were walking on flat ground, but they have developed a stubborn personality and poor combat quality.

For them, fighting a war is to rob a house, kill people, set fires and rob things, and they can't figure out what is considered a feint.

"Feint or attack?" Not only his subordinate soldiers, but even Pei Yuanshao, the deputy general who was born as a bandit, couldn't understand it.

"Feint," Lao Cheng rolled his cute eyes, "It's just not really attacking." ”

Lao Cheng's explanation seems to be simple and clear, but his subordinates are even more confused.

"Attack, don't really attack, then why do we attack?"

"It's called strategy, and you don't understand it! Our task is to cooperate with the other departments, so we can't really attack, but we still have to make a real attack. ”

It's hard! The subordinates will not grasp this scale. "Then, what if you accidentally break through Lishi City?"

"A bunch of." Cheng Yanjin grabbed his beard and rolled his eyes, "Let's put it this way, you just can't attack with your life, but you have to attack decently." You have to remember two things, one is not to get hurt, and the other is to fight lively. ”

With this explanation, the subordinates somewhat understood.

Cheng Yanjin explained in detail and assigned tasks to each part.

Now is not the time to go to war with Lu Bu head-on, Cheng Yanjin did not wear military uniforms, all of them wore yellow turban bandit costumes.

At the sound of an order, hundreds of people rushed towards Lishi City.

Lishi is the seat of Xihe County.

Xihe County has a vast area and a sparse population, and the nine counties of Xihe have a total population of only more than 20,000.

This is so sparsely populated that you can't see the people of the West River for hundreds of miles, and even the Xiongnu don't bother to harass it.

Although there were only a few hundred people in Cheng Biting Jinbu, they appeared outside Lishi City with a roar, which still scared the defenders in the city into a mess.

The enemy situation was unknown, and the remaining generals did not dare to go out of the city to face the battle, but only commanded the defenders in the city to take their places.

Cheng Yanjin commanded his subordinates to throw the lit hay towards the city wall.

Although the city wall is not high, the Yanmen army does not dare to bully too closely, and throws hay far away, but cannot throw it on the city wall.

Bunches of hay, scattered far and near, crackled and smoked.

It's not going to work well.

Cheng Yanjin rolled his eyes, picked up a stone, tied it with hay, lit it, and threw it at the city gate......

After several attempts, a bundle of hay finally landed exactly near the drawbridge outside the city gates.

"If you see it, throw it wherever you want! Burn the city gates, burn the suspension bridge! ”

The Yanmen soldiers learned from Cheng Biting Jin, and threw the hay to the city gate one after another.

More and more hay fell near the drawbridge, and the Yanmen army let out bursts of cheers.

"Yu, general, the enemy army is going to burn the city gates!" The defenders of the city panicked.

"Quick, quick, sprinkle, domine!"

Water can extinguish fire, but it can't extinguish smoke. The burning hay was doused with water, emitting even more choking smoke.

The Lishi defenders did not dare to go out of the city, running around on the city wall to fight the fire, while the Yanmen army outside the city played more and more, and played more and more tricks.

On a whim, one of the soldiers urinated and sludge, formed a large ball, stuck a bunch of hay on it, lit it, and threw it at the city of Lishi.

The mud ball is like a large shuttlecock, and it is thrown accurately and steadily......

"Smack!"

The ball of mud fell so the wall that it stuck to it.

"Whew......"

The Yanmen army erupted in excitement, and many people immediately followed suit, and soon, on the stone wall, there were many mud balls that lit hay.

The fire was shining, the smoke was thick, and the disgusting smell of urine was mixed in......

"General, it's not a way to go on like this, we will be choked to death if we don't get burned to death."

The number of defenders in the city was small, and the billowing smoke made the defenders even more panicked.

"Come on, report to General Gao quickly!"

Cheng Yanjin deliberately left the Shinan Gate, and the scouts in the city rushed out of the city to chase Gao Shun's army.

After tossing for two hours, the Yanmen army was tired of playing, and the Lishi defenders couldn't hold out, and the Yanmen army was tired of playing.

Cheng Biting Jin had to report that there were scouts out of the city at the south gate, and estimated that it was almost over, and with a swing of a big axe, he ordered a retreat.

"Brother Cheng, it's time for us to go to Taiyuan, right?"

"Nope."

didn't see Gao Shun's team retreat, and Lao Cheng was not at ease.

"Don't go back to Taiyuan first, go to Lin County!"

"Where are you going?"

"Keep playing!"

"Howler!"

……

Man Gui was depressed.

Although the plan is very good, let Gao Chong and Shichiro take turns to fight outside Xu Huang's camp. However, no matter how the two shouted or shouted, they just didn't get along with the party barracks.

Xu Huang and Shichiro Yanji fought each other, knowing that the opponent was brave and that he was not his opponent, so he simply closed the camp door.

Gao Pet is okay, the opponent should not fight, Gao Pet just feels bored. Qilang has a hot temperament, Xu Huang can't come out, and Qilang is anxious. He even found a few soldiers with loud voices and shouted and scolded at the Shangdang camp, what was unpleasant to scold, trying to force Xu Huang to hurry, but Xu Huang was not fooled.

Man Gui understands the art of war. The Shangdang Xu Huang Division has a numerical advantage, but it should neither fight nor attack, and there is only one possibility -- it is waiting for the follow-up reinforcements of the Shangdang.

There was a sound of soaring footsteps, and Qilang Yang Yansi strode in.

"This coward!" Yang Yansi ripped off his helmet and skimmed it to the side impatiently. "My subordinates scolded so much that their voices were hoarse, and they couldn't scold the words, but the cowardice just didn't come out!"

Man Gui didn't expect Xu Huang to be so calm, people didn't come out, his own troops were small, and the young master Liu Mang strictly ordered him to only hold on, not to take the initiative to attack, and to ensure the safety of Qi County, Man Gui had no idea for a while.

At this moment, the captain of the city guard suddenly came to report that Yuci brought important military information to the scouts!

It is the handwritten order of the young master Liu Mang. said that the army was in trouble in Yuci and could not support Qi County as originally planned, so Man Gui and others must stick to Qi County and wait for the army to come to help.

The letter didn't say that the army had encountered any trouble in Yuci, but it couldn't support Qi County on time, and Man Gui's heart was tight. Hurriedly summoned Qiao Zhiyong and Gao Chong, and told the young master Liu Mang's letter about the contents.

Qiao Zhiyong doesn't know how to use soldiers, his Qiao family is now tightly tied to the young master Liu Mang, Qiao Zhiyong said that no matter what, the Qiao family will definitely do their best to help defend Qi County.

Shichiro doesn't care. "What are you afraid of when the army comes two days late, are the party soldiers very powerful? It's just a cowardly bag who doesn't dare to go out of the camp to face the battle! If you dare to come to attack the city, let them stand and lie down! ”

Although Qilang's words were uplifting, Man Gui knew that there were few small soldiers in Qi County, and if the Shangdang army came to attack, a vicious battle would be indispensable.

Man Gui did not dare to be careless, and immediately sent scouts in several directions to pay close attention to the movements of the Shangdang army. At the same time, he sent scouts to report back to the young master Liu Mang, saying that no matter how strong the enemy is, the soldiers of Qi County will fight to the end.

In the evening, the scouts on the south road reported that the Shangdang army of about 4,000 had arrived at Jingling, which was thirty miles away, and the Shangdang army moved quickly, and it seemed that they were not ready to camp in Jingling, but to rush to Qi County overnight.

"Sizzle......" Man Gui gasped.

Coupled with the Xu Huang Department outside the city, the Shangdang army is nearly ten times that of his own, and Qi County is dangerous!
