Li Yao did not answer the words of the commander of the 12th Division, and asked the other division commanders, "Do you have any good suggestions?" ”

At this time, the commander of the 14th Division said: "Otherwise, we will also enclose the eastern city wall and attack on all sides, so that the city guards inside will be dispersed, and we will have a chance of victory!" ”

Li Yao looked at the commander of the 14th Division and said: "We have a total of 60,000 people, and we will be divided into four city walls, and we will not have many people, and if we surround the four sides, they will definitely think that we are going to annihilate them, not to mention that the soldiers there will resist to the death, and it is not good that civilians will also go up to the city wall to help defend the city!" ”

Several division commanders didn't make a sound after hearing Li Yao's words!

Li Yao looked at Cheng Changping and said, "Cheng Changping, you went to the border to attack the Liang army, do you have any opinions?" ”

Cheng Changping heard Li Yao call his name, and hurriedly stood up and said, "The last general has some immature ideas, but I don't know if the feasibility is high!" ”

Li Yao heard that Cheng Changping had an idea, waved his hand, asked Cheng Changping to sit down, and said, "Sit down and talk!" ”

After Cheng Changping sat down, he said: "These two acropolis, as the cities of Gongwei Yidu, needless to say, have military strength, and the defensive equipment is also sufficient, if we attack hard, it will definitely be inappropriate, we can only outwit it!" ”

Li Yao nodded and said, "Tell me, how to outwit it!" ”

Cheng Changping said: "A while ago, when I carried out guerrilla warfare with the Liang army on the border of Yiguo, I saw our secret weapon, fuel, and we relied on this weapon to defeat the cavalry of the Liang army, our fuel has particularity, that is, it can burn on the fire, and there is a strong poisonous smoke, the geographical conditions of the Acropolis are very special, they are divided into the inner city and the outer city, and there is also a moat between the inner city and the outer city, if we find the source of the moat, and pour in the fuel, the fuel flows into the Acropolis along the water, If we light the fuel, the fire will burn into their city along the moat, and the poisonous smoke will spread, and then their attention will definitely be distracted, and we can use this time to attack their county seat! ”

After Li Yao heard Changping's idea, his brows furrowed, it is not easy to refine the fuel, if it is poured into the moat for burning, it is too much waste!

Li Yao asked, "Changping, I don't know how much fuel you need for this plan?" ”

Cheng Changping was also unsure, and said: "I think it only takes a few dozen barrels to be enough, when the fuel flows through the moat, we will light them, just to attract their attention, without causing harm to them, and the smoke coming out of the fuel is particularly large, the moat with fuel can turn the entire acropolis into a smoky place, so that they can't see, and their catapults are not good at hitting us!" ”

Li Yao knew the smoke coming out of this fuel, this kind of smoke has a lot of harmful gases, and if you smell too much, you will be weak, and the damage to your throat is also very great, so she nodded and said: "I see that in the blind man's report, the cavalry of the Liang army was smoked and surrendered by the smoke after the fuel was burned!" ”

Cheng Changping remembered the scene when he surrounded the cavalry of the Liang army, and said with a smile: "Exactly, I was also curious at the time, why those cavalry were jumping into the ditch from the horse, and they were directly taken prisoner without even resisting!" It wasn't until the back that I realized that they couldn't stand the smoke, so they jumped off! ”

Li Yao nodded and said, "Since this is the case, then you go to the source of their moat, and tomorrow morning, I will turn this into a smoke city!" ”

Cheng Changping hesitated for a moment and said, "Master Hou, if we use this method, we may smoke the local civilians to death, won't this be too ......?"

Li Yao thought for a moment and said, "Maybe the power of this smoke is not so great, after all, this one is burning on water!" And if you want the smoke to cover the whole city, it's impossible, I'm sure they'll run away where there is no smoke! ”

Cheng Changping thought for a while and said, "That's right, then I'll go find the source of the moat!" ”

Li Yao nodded and said, "Okay, you go down to find the source first, and all the division commanders will return to their original positions, and be on guard at night to prevent the enemy from sneaking up!" ”

The division commanders nodded and said, "Yes!" ”

The source of the moat is easy to find, and Cheng Changping took a regiment of soldiers to the upper reaches of the moat with dozens of barrels of fuel!

Early the next morning, the adjutant general of the Acropolis said to the commander-in-chief: "General, when will the reinforcements we sent out come?" Although we have restrained them now, according to their offensive, we will not last long, the sandbags at the city gate have been changed several times, if they let their artillery bombard, our city gate will be smashed sooner or later! ”

The city guard general sighed and said: "I estimate that eighty percent of us have been abandoned, the beacon fire has been released for so long, and the soldiers in the back city should have climbed over, and now that a day has passed, I haven't come yet, I don't need to think about it and know if it will come!" ”

This general guessed well, the main city guard army behind him will be Yang Yun's descendants, and he also knows that the Liang army was repelled by tens of thousands of Li Yao's troops, so they think that it will be a matter of time before the city is occupied, and Li Yao's troops can capture the 40,000 military horses of the Liang army, if they are far away from the city, there is still a glimmer of life, but if they go out of the city, it is definitely a dead end, so the main general of the city guard army behind will not support at all!

At this time, Cheng Changping was also ready to pour oil, and Li Yao saw that the army was ready to attack, so he said to the guards behind him: "Send a signal flare!" ”

The guards took out three signal flares and fired them out in turn, Cheng Changping saw Li Yao launch the signal flares, and immediately said to his subordinates: "Start pouring oil!" ”

Huang Chengcheng's oil was poured into the moat water, and the soldiers in the acropolis saw that the moat was full of Huang Chengcheng's liquid, and hurriedly came to report to the chief general of the city guard!

The main general followed the soldiers to the edge of the moat, looked at the oil full of the moat, and didn't know why, and said, "Could this be Li Yao's new strategy?" ”

The soldier said, "This thing shouldn't have much power floating on the water!" ”

The lord of the city guard did not dare to be careless, and said: "Let the soldiers stay away from the moat!" ”

At this time, the fuel oil has flowed around the Acropolis along the moat, Cheng Changping blew the fire fold and threw it into the moat full of fuel, and the fuel oil on the moat burned when it touched the fire fold, and suddenly a fire dragon burned around the Acropolis!

The Acropolis Lord saw that the moat was burning, and exclaimed, "What kind of spell did this Li Yao cast to make the moat burn!" ”

But it was not a good thing that the city was on fire, and the chief general said to the soldiers, "Let the farmer put out the fire, for the fire is so great that it is so uncomfortable to roast!" ”

The soldier asked, "General, what are we going to do to extinguish the fire?" ”

The Lord will suddenly remember that this fire burns on water, and there is no way to extinguish it with water! So he said: "If you can't extinguish it, you won't extinguish it first, send someone to watch this fire, hoping that this fire will not produce any moths!" (To be continued.) )
