At the head of Wuyang City, Ji Heng looked at the north with a frown.

It's been three days, three whole days, and the enemy still hasn't had the slightest intention of attacking the city. Except for sending thousands of cavalry to patrol Wuyang every day, there was no new movement of the enemy army.

Many young lieutenants of the Yan army couldn't stand this humiliation of the Sanjin coalition army, and they repeatedly asked for battle, but they were all pressed down by themselves. Yes, humiliation. You must know that the Three Jin Coalition Army has 180,000 troops, but it only sends thousands of cavalry to inspect Wuyang City, which is not a humiliation of the Yan Army.

There is a reason why Ji Heng spared his reputation to prohibit the Yan army from fighting, but there was a famous general in the enemy army, Lian Po, who had made great achievements. He didn't believe that Lian Po would make such a low-level mistake, it must be a trick to lure the enemy. As long as he sends troops, he will definitely be surrounded and annihilated by Lian Po's army. When the time comes, it will be another loss of troops and a great decline in morale, and this will be the biggest loss.

"I won't be so stupid, I just can't get out of the city, what can you do to me? Time with me? The last thing I need is time. Ji Heng said secretly in his heart.

"Taishou, the enemy army didn't send cavalry out today, it's a bit strange!" Han Cheng, the county lieutenant on the side, said.

"Huh?" Ji Heng groaned strangely. What kind of conspiracy is Lian Po playing? He has so many troops, isn't it enough to attack directly. It's so false and real that people can't guess his thoughts, which is really annoying.

"When was the last time the enemy sent troops out of the camp?" Ji Heng asked.

Han Cheng's heart tightened, and he replied, "It was yesterday afternoon." ”

Ji Heng looked at the sun, it was already Shen Shi. Although the days are longer in the summer, looking at the camp of the Sanjin coalition army, there is no movement of assembly, presumably it will not go out of the city today.

"What's unusual about the enemy these days?" Ji Heng has been busy with the army in the past few days, and the city defense has been completely handed over to Han Cheng, so he is not very clear about the movements of the Sanjin coalition army.

Han Cheng thought about it, but still mustered up the courage to say a small thing. "Taishou, it's not a big deal. It's just that three days ago, the enemy's cavalry left the camp later and later, and they settled a lot during the day. ”

After speaking, Han Cheng complained, "I really don't know what the enemy thinks, the road to the north and east is very tightly blocked, but the road to the south is unimpeded." They won't be so stupid, waiting for our army on the southern front to assemble, right? ”

The speaker has no intention, but the listener has the intention. Ji Heng pondered Han Cheng's words, to the south, to the north, the blockade, the sound. I always feel like I'm missing something. The enemy's appearance was so strange that it seemed that they didn't care at all about the army of the southern front of the Yan State going north to support them. Is it to encircle the point and send reinforcements? But why don't you encircle three and lack one, but encircle one and lack three?

Han Cheng didn't care too much about the strange expression on Taishou's face, he just said to himself: "Taishou, in my opinion!" They don't dare to come out today. What an army of 180,000 people, it's not that even our Wuyang City doesn't dare to fight. When our reinforcements came, we drove them directly down to Yishui. Back to the water, Lian Po is nothing more than that! ”

Wait a minute! They're shutting down! The 180,000-strong army did not dare to fight! Could it be that they don't have 180,000 troops at all? As soon as he thought of this thought, Ji Heng's mind suddenly became active. Why are they blocking the north so badly, what is there in the north, it's Jicheng in Shangdu! Could it be that they went straight to Jicheng?

If this is the reason, then the qiē in front of you can be explained. But there is also a possibility, that is, this is a trap deliberately set by the enemy to lure themselves into being deceived. Ji Heng pondered repeatedly in his heart, and his face was cloudy.

"Taishou! Satrap! Han Cheng shouted at Ji Heng.

Ji Heng's appearance just now seemed to be crazy, his eyes were fixed, but his face was suddenly happy and worried, which really scared Han Cheng. At the moment of the great enemy, don't be stupid.

"Ahh What the? Ji Heng was stunned for a moment and asked strangely.

Looking at the concerned eyes of the county lieutenant, Ji Heng realized that he must have been too engrossed just now, and immediately smiled and said, "This official has lost his temper." Captain Han, do you think the camp opposite will be empty? ”

"What? How can it be? Han Cheng immediately retorted, and then realized his disrespectfulness, and explained with sincere fear: "Xiaguan, Xiaguan doesn't mean this. Yesterday, there were still enemy troops out of the camp to patrol the sentry, how could they be gone overnight! ”

Ji Heng waved his hand and said, "That's what this official said, the enemy army has 180,000 people, how can he be so cowardly as a mouse, and defend the camp and not attack the city?" Unless they want our reinforcements to join us, or they have ulterior motives! Captain Han, which do you think is more likely to be? ”

The county lieutenant thought about it carefully, and felt that it was indeed as Taishou said, and it was very likely that the enemy was playing some kind of conspiracy. If you want to lure your side out of the city to fight, you just need to be careful not to go out. Seeing that he is not fooled, will the other party retreat and fight other cities? For example, Jicheng?

Thinking of this, Han Cheng's face changed. If there are only a few enemy troops in the large battalion opposite, and the main force of the enemy army sneaks up on Jicheng, he will be fooled. The number of people, the number of people, if this is the case, there will definitely be some flaw in the big camp opposite.

"What's wrong? Captain Han? Ji Heng looked at Han Cheng's face and turned pale for a while, and asked strangely.

"Down... Xia Guan suddenly remembered something, and he didn't know whether to say it. Han Cheng stammered.

"Captain Han, but it doesn't hurt to say it."

As soon as Taishou said this, Xia Guan suddenly found that the cooking fire in the enemy camp in the past few days was several times less than before. The lieutenant gritted his teeth and said.

"What?" Ji Heng's face changed after hearing this, and he asked hurriedly: "According to your experience, how many people will be on the other side?" ”

Han Cheng thought for a while and reported a number: "At most thirty thousand!" ”

Ji Heng walked back and forth a few times, repeatedly weighing the conclusions Han Cheng had reached. If it is really as Han Cheng said, the enemy army on the opposite side is just bluffing, and in fact, the main force has already rushed to Jicheng, then there is no need for him to wait for help. But if this is the enemy's conspiracy, once you are fooled, it will be a great sin that cannot be atoned.

The so-called wealth is in danger, Ji Heng paused and said: "Tonight, you send a team of dead soldiers, you must find out the truth of the enemy camp, do you know?" ”

"Whoa!" Han Cheng seemed to know Ji Heng's intentions, and replied.

That night, several men in black quietly entered the camp of the Sanjin Alliance. They are Han Cheng's chosen henchmen, and everyone knows that tonight is unpredictable. If Taishou-sama guesses wrong, then what awaits him is a large net of 180,000 troops; If you guess correctly, there's a glimmer of life.

Fortunately, the coalition camp was big enough, and it was late at night, and there were dark enough corners for the men in black to hide. The man in black stumbled all the way, from the cautiousness at the beginning to the ease of sending and receiving later, and became more and more sure of his judgment. Seeing that dawn was approaching, several men in black quietly withdrew from the camp of the Sanjin Alliance.

"How? Have you ever allowed them to hear the truth? "The coalition camp, the tyranny kite asked nonchalantly.

"General, rest assured, everything that should be seen has been shown to them, and everything that should be listened to has been listened to by them." A lieutenant replied respectfully.

"Well, go down! The order is to prepare for war, and I am afraid that there will be a lively scene to see today. ”

"Whoa!" The lieutenant retreated.

Wuyang City, Ji Heng is also a great joy. The message from the dead man was exactly the same as his own conjecture, and it seemed that the other party was just bluffing. Less than 20,000 people dare to cross the city, and still have their backs to the water, do you really not know how to write dead characters?

"Someone! Drumming Gathering! This officer will lead the army to break the enemy! Ji Heng said in high spirits.
