After receiving the news of the death of the trouser fork, the rope department was silent for several days.

It wasn't until the fifth day that the Suo Ji Department took action, first cutting off the grain passage between the Yanzhou Grassland and Mozhou City with light horses, killing all the merchants who traded with Mozhou, and then using heavy troops to block the path for the Frost Giants to go out to get water, and even poisoning and drugged the nearby water source area.

In modern terms, the status of the Suojiao tribe in the Yanzhou grassland is equivalent to the president of the regional chamber of commerce, with tens of thousands of tribes, and at the same time there are close trading relationships with major tribes.

As long as the pants industry gave an order, Yanzhou merchants had to draw a line with Mozhou City.

As a businessman, he knew very well that forcibly attacking the city was the stupidest thing to do, the loss was too great, and the gains outweighed the losses.

Especially in Mozhou City, the city wall is more than ten meters high, the fortifications are as strong as a fortress, and there are frost giants in the city who are known for their brute strength.

The most important thing is that the strongest Suo Jiao is a light horseman, not a siege footman.

As long as you surround without fighting, sooner or later you can drag the other party to death.

Faced with such a predicament, Mozhou only lasted three days before running out of food and water.

The food problem is easy to solve, there are still hundreds of fishing rods in the ice ocean, and the fish caught are dried into salted fish, which is enough for four thousand frost giants to eat for more than half a year, but the water source, especially clean and drinkable fresh water, is really scarce in Mozhou.

The amount of fresh water extracted from marine icebergs is very limited, and it is not clean, so it is easy to get sick if you drink it for a long time.

"Your Highness, it's not appropriate to continue to drag on like this, we will be consumed to death sooner or later, so it is better to go out of the city and fight to the death with the Suo Jiao Iron Cavalry. Chu He looked at the iron cavalry stationed thousands of meters away, and put forward his own ideas.

After half a year of professional training, the Frost Giant's current combat power is not the same, at least against the Suo Ji Light Cavalry, he will definitely not suffer.

"It's useless, the pants industry is a well-known old fox in Yanzhou, if you go out of the city, they will avoid its edge, and besides, Suo Jiao is originally very restrained by the frost giant. ”

Aloy lives in Mozhou all year round and knows the situation of the Suojiao Department well.

The light cavalry has always been known for its harassment tactics, the enemy advances and retreats, the enemy is tired and disturbs, and if you come out to encircle and suppress him, he can bypass the heavy army and sneak up on your rear camp.

Although the Frost Giants were brute force and invincible in Yanzhou, they had few means of pursuit.

Just imagine, the frost giant weighing three or four hundred pounds, riding a thin war horse, it would be good if he didn't crush the horse, let alone expect him to catch up with Suo's light horse.

What's even worse is that because of their perennial business, they travel between Yanzhou and Fengdu, and their equipment is not inferior to that of the forbidden army in the national capital, with an average of one bronze weapon for every five people, and the horses under the crotch are pure-blooded cold-resistant war horses.

"Fight, of course, but we don't have a spare chance to try, we must ensure that we can kill with one blow, so that Suo Yi has no power to resist. ”

"It's hard, we can't touch the rider. Aloy sighed heavily, helpless.

"Solve the problem of water first, and then think of other solutions. ”

Jiang Feng simply opened a kill shop, there are many instruments that can directly purify seawater into fresh water, but the price is too expensive, the cheapest is four or five hundred thousand kill points, and his account balance is currently less than a few thousand kill points.

And the worst thing is that the water purification instrument also needs a power supply......

In this place where birds don't, Jiang Feng doesn't know how to generate electricity? Even low-power appliances like mobile phones can't be charged, let alone several kilowatts of water purification instruments.

After three days without a clue, the city was littered with the corpses of the Frost Giants, most of whom died of thirst due to lack of water.

A small number of others died of overdraft due to excessive drinking of seawater.

"In the past few days, there have been more than 300 frost giants dead in the city, and if they continue to consume, I think this number will increase several times. Chu He reported the situation in the city to Jiang Feng in detail.

The current situation is really not optimistic.

"Chu He, you now order someone to open the city gate, hang white flags on the city tower, and demolish all the weakest sections of the eastern city wall, I will go and write a letter of surrender now, and let Xiang Yu send it to the Suo Ji Department. ”

The reason why Jiang Feng chose to delay for another three days was to make Mozhou City chaotic, and only in this way could the surrender of the white flag convince the trouser industry.

"Lord Jiang Feng, we Frost Giants would rather die than give in, even if we starve to death, we will not surrender. ”

Surrender is a great shame for the frost giants of Mozhou City.

"It's not surrender, it's a fraudulent surrender, and you'll understand when the time comes. ”

Jiang Feng handed over the written letter to Xiang Yu, and then explained to Aloy: "Remove the frost giants stationed on the city tower and replace them with the old, weak, sick and disabled, and then send hundreds of young and strong frost giants to mix with the dead corpses and throw them out of the city, and Xiang Yu will lead them." ”

"What does that mean?"

Although Aloy was puzzled, he had no choice but to do so.

For several days in a row, before nightfall, five or six hundred elite frost giants were thrown out mixed with dead corpses, and with the cover of night, they quietly hid in the tunnel dug by the hinge before.

"The open plain, unobstructed, is a good place to bury, as long as the main force of Suo Jiao enters the range of Zhuge Repeater's crossbow, the Mozhou crisis can be solved in an instant. Jiang Feng stood at the mouth of the city wall, looking into the distance.

The endless Yanzhou wasteland, where the wind blows the grass and sees the cattle and sheep, is within a radius of 1,500 meters outside Mozhou City, all within the range of Zhuge Repeater's crossbow.

"Your Highness is planning to lure the enemy deep and shoot Suo Jiao light cavalry with Zhuge Repeater?"

"This is the most effective approach at the moment. Jiang Feng nodded and continued, "We currently have 100,000 feather arrows, which is enough for a light rider to drink a pot. ”

"But has Your Highness ever thought about how we should solve the problem if the trouser industry is not fooled?"

Chu He raised his own questions, "Aloy also said that the pants industry is a well-known old fox, and he knows that it is impossible to defeat the frost giant, so he will adopt a strategy of besieging but not attacking, and try to minimize his own losses. ”

Now for the Suo Jiao light cavalry, the safest way is to continue to besiege the city and let Mozhou be cut off from water and food, rather than immediately accept surrender.

"I've already shown weakness to this point, if the pants industry doesn't attack the city, then there is really no way. ”

Jiang Feng was silent for a few seconds, what Chu He said was also what he was most worried about at the moment, Suo Jiao was not fooled, and all the preparations before the battle were equivalent to vain.

"Well, then, go find a prisoner's cart now, put it a mile away from the city gate, and tie me up inside. ”

"Your Highness, no, you are now the lord of Mozhou City, it is really inappropriate to be a bait? "The risk is too great, Chu He naturally doesn't dare to let Jiang Feng take risks.

"Apart from me, who else in Mozhou City has this weight?" Jiang Feng spat out a turbid breath and shrugged his shoulders: "Trust me, do it." ”

Jiang Feng insisted on this, and Chu He did not dare to go against his wishes, so he had to order someone to prepare the prisoner cart and swagger to put it under the nose of the Suo Qi light horse, which was only five miles away from the enemy's light horse.

The cold wind blew Jiang Feng shivering.

However, at this moment, another prisoner cart was pushed behind him.

"What are you doing?"

"I'm afraid you're lonely, lonely and cold, so I came over to chat with you. ”

Shuang Yiyu clasped her hands around her chest and looked into the distance with cold eyes, "The lord of Mozhou City, plus the sister of the lord of the Hinge Department, this bait is enough, even if it is an old fox, it should be bait." ”

As night fell, the two figures in the prisoner's car were idle and bored, looking up at the starry sky overhead in the wind.

Xiang Yu handed over the surrender letter written by Jiang Feng to the Suo Gong Department, and then left with an arrogant attitude, after suffering the loss last time, no one dared to stop him.

After leaving Suojiao's camp, Xiang Yu did not return to Mozhou immediately, but went directly to a remote cave, only more than ten miles away from Suojiao's lair.

There were more than two hundred frost giants secretly gathered in the cave, all of whom were the elite masters of Mozhou City, and they were smuggled out of Mozhou as dead corpses.
