Chapter 159: Counting Higher!
In the next few days, Liu Ji personally observed the terrain around Wujin City, and when observing the northwest corner of Wujin City, Liu Ji had an idea in his heart, and immediately came to Zhu Yuanzhang to inform him of the plan to break the city. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
I only heard Liu Ji say loudly: "Yue Guogong, according to the observation of his subordinates, the bricks and soil in the northwest corner of Wujin City are old and new, and the antlers are mostly damaged, presumably caused by previous wars!" ”
"If the Duke of Yue Guo gathers a large army to attack this place, it will only take a few hours to break the city wall and enter the city, but there are many defenders in the city, plus Deng Yu and Ye Dexin are extraordinary, they are very likely to find out this intention of our army!"
"Therefore, his subordinates suggested that Yue Guogong send troops to the southeast to position the soil into a ladder, deceive Deng Yue to mobilize heavy troops to guard the southeast, if Deng Yue really hit the plan, Yue Guogong can take advantage of the night to order the army to storm the northwest corner, so that Wu Jin City can be broken!"
Zhu Yuanzhang was overjoyed when he heard this, and laughed loudly: "Hahaha, Berwyn is highly intelligent, and he deserves to be the ovary of his father-in-law!! ”
After the plan was set, Zhu Yuanzhang ordered the soldiers to build a ladder in the southeast of Wujin City, and gathered all the generals, seemingly intending to storm the city in the southeast.
Lu Zhen, who was in charge of inspecting the city, saw such a scene, and immediately urgently sought out Deng Yu and Ye Dexin, and told Zhu Yuanzhang to gather men and horses, as if he planned to attack the southeast of Wujin City, and then suggested that Deng Yu mobilize heavy troops to do a good job of defense.
When Deng Yu heard this, his eyes immediately lit up, and then he looked at Ye Dexin, and when he saw Ye Dexin smiling at the corner of his mouth, he knew that Ye Dexin also had an idea.
The two nodded at each other tacitly, and said the words "sound east and west" in unison, and then laughed loudly, Lu Zhen didn't know why, and immediately asked.
Deng Yu replied loudly: "The national treasure is a little restless, this king and Wei Zhang have already understood Liu Ji's plan, now just need to act according to the plan!" ”
Lu Zhen's face changed when he heard this, and he asked suspiciously: "According to King Wu's intentions, Zhu Yuanzhang is deceiving by gathering troops in the southeast of Wujin City?" ”
Deng Yu replied with a slight bow: "The northwest corner of Wujin City has been seriously damaged by the war in previous years, and the bricks and soil are old. ”
"After discussing with Wei Zhang, this king determined that Liu Ji noticed this flaw and would definitely try to launch a strong attack from here, so Liu Ji has been investigating the terrain and topography around Wujin City for many days, and he must have found this flaw, but Zhu Yuanzhang is building a ladder in the southeast of Wujin City, feigning an offensive."
"Therefore, this king and Wei Zhang decided that Liu Ji was making a plan of 'striking the east and attacking the west', the purpose was to deceive our army to guard the southeast of the city, and they took advantage of the night to transfer troops to the northwest corner to launch a thunderous offensive!"
Lu Zhen heard the tiger's eyes burst into flames, and then asked: "It turns out that King Wu and Ye Shangshu have insight into Liu Ji's treacherous plan, I don't know how to break the situation next?" ”
Deng Yu smiled again: "This matter is easy, tomorrow you can gather the elite soldiers in the city, secretly lurk in the private houses in the northwest of Wujin City, and then let the people in the city put on our military uniforms, and guard the southeast, at night, first use the original defenders in the northwest to defend, and when the Zhu army breaks the city wall in the northwest corner, and most of the soldiers are exhausted and break into the city, the elite soldiers of our army hidden in the private houses will be killed in all directions, and then they will be able to defeat the Zhu army and capture Zhu Yuanzhang and Liu Ji in one fell swoop!" ”
Lu Zhen was overjoyed when he heard the plan, and immediately according to Deng Yu's arrangement, he went to gather elite soldiers and lurked in the private houses in the northwest of Wujin City, while Gao Lan, the captain of Hengye, organized the people to disguise themselves as Wu soldiers and guard the southeast of Wujin City, and the rest of the area was defended as usual.
The arrangement was decided, and the next day, a horse detective reported to Zhu Yuanzhang, saying that Deng Yue was afraid that the army would storm the southeast, and had now transferred troops from all over the city to the southeast of Wujin City, while the northwest corner was empty of guards.
When Zhu Yuanzhang heard the report, he glanced at Liu Ji and laughed: ?" Hahaha, Deng Yu and Ye Dexin have been tricked! ”
After Zhu Yuanzhang finished laughing, he immediately ordered the whole army to launch a feint attack on the southeast of Wujin City, and summoned the generals to give instructions, ordering them to select elites, retain physical strength, and wait for orders at any time.
This offensive lasted until the second watch at night, when Zhu Yuanzhang saw that the time was ripe and was about to mobilize the elite to kill the northwest corner of Wujin City, at this time, Liu Ji hurriedly came to report: "Yue Guogong is slow!! ”
Zhu Yuanzhang saw Liu Ji's words to stop him, and a trace of doubt immediately rose in his heart, and he hurriedly asked: "The justice of the country should follow Berwin's strategy and lead the elite troops to the northwest corner of Wujin City, I don't know why Berwyn suddenly spoke out to stop him?" ”
Liu Ji rarely showed a trace of solemnity in his eyes, and replied solemnly: "My subordinates observed the guards guarding the city in the southeast today, and found that they did not look like regular Wu troops. ”?
"It is rumored that Deng Yu and his generals have a good way of training, and most of the Wu soldiers can strictly abide by military discipline and not be chaotic in battle, the Wu soldiers in the southeast are obviously not in line with the rumors, according to the opinions of his subordinates, the defenders in the southeast are likely to be disguised by the people!!"
When Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, he stared at him instantly, only to feel that his heart was cold, and then asked Liu Ji urgently: ??" In Bewen's opinion, where is the real Wu Bing? ”
Liu Ji's mind was spinning, his eyes were shining brightly, and after only a while, he had already deduced Deng Yu and Ye Dexin's calculations, and hurriedly said to Zhu Yuanzhang: ??" According to the opinion of their subordinates, Deng Yu and Ye Dexin are likely to have discovered our army's plan of 'attacking the east and attacking the west', and implemented the plan as planned, hiding the elite soldiers and horses in the northwest corner, only waiting for our army to storm the northwest corner and rush into the city from exhaustion, the Wu army ambushed and caught our army by surprise, and when the time comes, our army will inevitably be defeated! ”
Zhu Yuanzhang subconsciously looked at the head of the city, and sure enough, as Liu Ji analyzed, among the Wu soldiers who were defending the city, many of them were not in good armor and the formation was chaotic.
Zhu Yuanzhang immediately asked someone to fetch a bow, and aimed at a Wu army squad leader at the head of the city, drew a bow and an arrow, and shot an arrow.
The void burst with a "sigh", and the captain of the Wu army saw that an arrow was shooting, and he didn't wait to get closer, so he screamed in fright, and the arrow didn't hit and the person fell first, very embarrassed.
Zhu Yuanzhang saw it clearly, a look of happiness flashed on his face, and he turned to Liu Ji and said: ?" It seems that it is really as Berwyn said, most of the Wu soldiers in the southeast of the city are civilians in disguise, if it is not for Berwyn's timely reminder, our army will suffer a crushing defeat! How should our army deal with it now? ”
Liu Ji can be called "Zhuge at the end of the Yuan Dynasty", with profound intelligence, naturally he is not in vain, but he thinks about it a little and comes up with a countermeasure.
"Deng Yu and Ye Dexin have extraordinary insights, and if they want to ambush our army, why don't Yue Guogong also plan and take advantage of Deng Yu's elite soldiers and horses to the northwest corner, and take advantage of the weakness to storm the southeast!"
