When the soldiers defending the city took turns to rest, Li Guanqi was not idle, he organized nearly a thousand people, plus 500 soldiers from Cheng Fugui, and began to collect firewood and grass all over the city and weave strawmen.

The common people never thought that Li Guanqi, who was the leader of the Ninth Five-Year Plan, would be so approachable, and the arrival of Li Guanqi prevented the rebels from breaking through, and the people were full of gratitude, and now they are more willing to take the initiative to help, especially the women in the city are rushing to see the handsome and dashing young man.

Women are much more skilled at weaving straw than men, and with the participation of the vast number of working women, it didn't take long for a thousand life-size straw figures to be braided. Li Guanqi asked everyone to bring the old Jinshaguan military uniform and put it on the straw man. Then it was moved to the city for later use.

As the night deepened, and the thick clouds obscured the moon's not-so-bright light, it was a good time for ordinary people to sleep behind closed doors. But for the soldiers on the battlefield, they dare not relax a little, because such a night is also a good time to launch a night attack.

Xie Chen had already woken up, and after inspecting the city defense, he found that Li Guanqi was leading people to carry straw men on the city wall, so he hurriedly stepped forward to salute and said, "Your Majesty! The night is thick, suitable for a raid, the minister wants to take people to rob the camp, can you go? ”

Li Guanqi shook his head and said, "It's not appropriate." On a night like this, you can think of robbing the camp, and the rebels can also think of it, and if you rush forward, it will be difficult to take advantage. We have few people, and we can't afford to lose senselessly, so it's still a good fight. ”

Xie Chen thought for a while and said, "What Your Majesty said is reasonable. It's Chen Meng Lang! He looked at the straw men that the sergeants and civilians were carrying, frowned slightly, and said, "What does Your Majesty plan to do with these straw men?" ”

"Borrow an arrow!" Li Guanqi said indifferently.

"Borrowed arrows?" Xie Chen said uneasily: "Will it be useful?" In case the enemy is not fooled, this toss can be done in vain. ”

Li Guanqi smiled lightly and said, "Of course I am not completely sure. But the rebels have been tormented by our tricks in the past two days, and they must be worried now. Be cautious, and tonight is just the right time for a night attack, and I believe the chances of them being fooled are still very high. And even if they don't fall for it, these straw men can be placed on the city to confuse the enemy. No, when the battle is over, you can put them in the field to scare the birds. ”

Xie Chen was amused by Li Guanqi's series of back moves. said with a smile: "Your Majesty has no last resort!" How can the rebels be invincible? ”

In the middle of the night, when people are most sleepy, Li Guanqi asked everyone to tie the straw figures into a string with a rope, slowly put them down along the city wall, and then slowly pull them up and down after they are about to put them on the ground.

Because I was really scared by the soldiers and horses of Jinsha Pass in the past two days, although it was a good time to sleep and rest. But the rebels didn't let up at all, and who knew what kind of idea the harmless-looking young emperor in the city would come up with to rob the camp? Therefore, the movement on the wall of Jinsha Pass was discovered by the rebel sentries at the first time.

After discovering the abnormal movement on the wall of Jinsha Pass, the rebel sentries hurriedly warned and notified the generals who were patrolling the night. After looking at it again and again, the night patrol general Yun had enough eyes to determine that the soldiers and horses of Jinshaguan were secretly going out of the city to prepare to rob the camp, and while organizing the troops to prepare for resistance, he hurriedly sent someone to report to Liu Shuo.

The rebel camp, which was originally quiet, immediately exploded. Voices come and go, sleeping rebel soldiers. All were called, and then countless rebel archers appeared outside the camp gates, lined up ready to shoot.

Liu Shuo hadn't actually slept yet, he had already been tortured by Li Guanqi, and he was thinking about whether to retreat or continue to attack in the tent. For a while, I was worried that the moon was dark and the wind was high, whether Li Guanqi, the ghost elf, would send someone to sneak attack. When he heard the report from his subordinates that the people of Jinshaguan were really sneaking out of the city, he suddenly became even more sleepy, and hurriedly put on his clothes and watched.

The entire rebel camp in front of Liu Shuo was completely shrouded in a tense atmosphere, and the soldiers who had experienced the fierce battle during the day. He was sleepily getting up, and he was assembling towards his generals in a daze.

It was dark everywhere, there were people running around, and several soldiers even bumped into Liu Shuo, but because it was dark, they didn't recognize their leader, so they didn't even apologize and ran away.

Liu Shuo took a lot of effort to walk to the gate of the camp, looked up at Jinsha Guancheng, and sure enough, on the wall of Jinsha Guancheng, there was a faint figure climbing down from the city wall. But the light is really not very good, I can't see the situation clearly, and I don't know how many Jinshaguan soldiers are ready to go out of the city, but the long wall is full of soldiers, and there must be hundreds of people.

"General, what should I do?" A general next to him asked, "The last general will take a team of people to meet the enemy immediately?" ”

"Nope." Liu Shuo flatly refused, "That guy is scheming, since he dares to go out of the city to sneak attack, he must have been prepared for a long time." rashly went up to meet the enemy, and he must have fallen into the hands of that guy, and he was fooled again in vain. ”

"What then?"

"Shoot the arrows. Gather all the archers, shoot them to death for me, and nail them all directly to the walls. I'd like to see what tricks they can do when they're hanging from the walls. Liu Shuo ordered viciously, he was excited that he could finally find an opportunity to take advantage.

"Ready, put!"

"Whoosh!"

Under the command of their respective generals, all the archers of the rebel army continued to draw their bows and release arrows, trying to vent the humiliation of the past two days.

The arrows were shot in a dense manner, and the straw men soon turned into hedgehogs. Moreover, there were so many arrows from the rebels that some of them were nailed to the straw men, and some of them landed on the city wall, making the city wall crackle. From time to time, fierce arrows whistled over the city.

Only then did the soldiers at the head of the city understand that Li Guanqi used this method to deceive the rebels' bows and arrows. Looking at the opponent's posture, a thousand straw men may not be enough, because after a few rounds of arrows, the straw men on the city wall have been nailed. Everyone hurriedly pulled these straw men full of arrows into the city, and at the same time put down new straw men.

After a while, some of the rebels began to notice that something was wrong. It stands to reason that this shooting, Jinsha Pass people and horses have to lose at least a thousand people, but I didn't see any intention to stop, from the daytime posture, there are at most four or five thousand people in Jinsha Pass City, why do you suddenly not cherish it so much? And what is even more strange is that the people and horses of Jinsha Pass did not rely on the height advantage of the city wall to fight back.

Although the rebels had questions, no one dared to raise them without permission. Because the night is indeed too deep, the light is very dim, and there is a certain distance from the city wall, no one dares to guarantee that they can see clearly what is going on on the city wall, and the order to release the arrow is personally issued by the commander Liu Shuo. So, despite their doubts, the archers of the rebels kept bending their bows and shooting arrows. (To be continued......)
