In the next two days, under Zhao Ming's strict orders, the Jingzhai army only practiced daily and did not attack the city, and the busiest thing was only the Shenwu army cruising around to block the various city gates and not allow them to enter or leave. And the rebels were not in a hurry, and they stuck to the city gate during the day and pretended to attack at night from time to time at night to harass the Jingzhai army.

The two armies are now like two old men playing Tai Chi, and the moves are extremely lively but not lethal at all.

Until the third day, Xiao Bozai couldn't bear it, so he picked up Feng Wu and ran to Zhao Ming's tent and dragged Zhao Ming up from the marching bed to have a combat meeting.

The three of them sat down, Xiao Bo completely ignored Zhao Ming's eyes, and hurriedly asked, "Cousin, what are you thinking?" When it's autumn outing. Siege without attack is consumed like this? ”

"What are you anxious about?" Zhao Ming rolled his eyes, put his feet on the table and lazily replied, "There is no problem with military rations and morale, there is definitely more food than in the city, and there is a steady stream of support from my uncle in the rear." It's not us who should be in a hurry. ”

"Oh my God, cousin. Shall I call you brother? In peacetime, the cousin has absolutely no objection to the strategy of trapping the enemy army and waiting for the other party's food to run out. Our army has this capital. But do you have the time? Kyosato's envoy may arrive when. Father, that won't be long enough! When the time comes, you will inevitably be escorted to the capital and be a mandarin duck with the same fate! ”

As soon as the words fell, he ate an elbow blow from Feng Wu, and his head was hit by Zhao Ming's teapot.

"It's coming. It just so happened that I wrote two military orders and sent them to the south camp and the west camp. ”

Xiao Bo and Feng Wu took the military order and untied it to take a closer look. With an expression of disbelief, Xiao Bo still said quickly: "Are you sure?" ”

"Alright, less nonsense. Let's go down and prepare. ”

"What if it doesn't work?"

"If it doesn't work, it's a drill, what's the loss? Look at the shape of my mouth. Now GUN. ”

Before Zhao Ming could spit out the silent rolling words, Xiao Bo walked out of the tent and muttered something on his lips. Zhao Ming and Feng Wu who left the tent.

The rest of Feng Wu seemed to be a little worried: "How sure are you?" ”

"Seventy percent." Zhao Ming withdrew his feet from the table, stared at the map on the table and said, "How can there be a sure victory in the world, seventy percent is already very high, and the rest will be left to what was said that day." Each has a destiny! ”

Feng Wu stared at Zhao Ming, who looked a little tired, bit his thin lip and turned his head to walk out, "Okay, I'll gamble with you!" ”

It's night, it's a good day. The moon hangs in the cloudless sky, bringing a trace of light to the earth, and the breeze brings the breath of grass, which makes people feel a little more relaxed.

Zhao Ming stood on the special high platform of the camp with his whole body in armor and looked into the distance, and his mood was also a little apprehensive. After all, this was his first war, and if it didn't turn out as he expected, then the only thing left was to end it with bloodshed. As Xiao Bo said, he didn't have much time left.

When he was a child, Zhao Ming had already stood on the high platform for an hour, and his hand had already grasped the railing of the high platform to restrain the impatience in his heart.

Suddenly, there was a howl of a long and two short night owls in the wild, Zhao Ming seemed to hear the most beautiful music, the whole person relaxed, and said to the herald beside him: "Here, the whole army is on alert, act according to the plan!" ”

It wasn't long before there was a sudden commotion outside the camp, and countless torches were lit out of thin air. The clamor and the screaming of feather arrows piercing the air sounded at the same time, completely breaking the silence of the night. Zhao Ming, who entered the battlefield for the first time, trembled, and he didn't know if it was because he was scared or excited!

"The enemy army assembled outside the main camp gate, about 3,000 people. Playing the banner is like a rebel army in Renrong Erxian County. ”

"Bow and arrow suppression, stick to the camp gate!"

"Boss, do you want the last general to take advantage of the enemy's unstable foothold and charge the handsome people to disrupt the enemy's position." Xiao Bo was not in the camp at this time, and one of the lieutenants who was left to protect Zhao Ming proposed.

"There's no need." Zhao Mingtou did not reply to deny this proposal.

"Then do you recall the Shenwu Army to rush and kill?"

"The Shenwu Army has its own mission! Won't be in the camp tonight! Besides, the rebels did not directly attack the city as soon as they came up, but lined up in front to defend against the Shenwu army. Zhao Ming found that he was interrupted by the deputy general, and the trembling feeling receded, and his body became more and more relaxed.

"But Your Highness, if you keep it for a long time, you will lose it! The distance between the south camp and the west camp is too far to be completely rescued! Or His Highness will retreat first. There are only more than 3,000 people, in case the 3,000 rebels in Ningxian County respond. The camp will not be able to hold it! Your Highness, let's go first. The last general will not die to ensure that the camp is not lost! The adjutant simply knelt down and asked for his life, looking anxious.

"The battle is not over, you let the main general retreat?" Zhao Ming squinted at the adjutant general.

"Your Highness is different! As long as Your Highness is fine, our army will win! The deputy general did not show weakness and stared back at Zhao Ming.

Just as the dispute was over, the herald came galloping again: "Report! The rebels launched the siege engine, intending to storm the camp gate, but the whole army has pressed in, and the bows and arrows can no longer be suppressed! ”

"Holy! Can you still get a siege vehicle in such a hurry? Yes, I'm afraid that the rebels in Ningxian County took the opportunity to get it out when they attacked the night three days ago. It's kind of interesting! Summoning the generals at the front. Abandon the first gate and retreat to the second gate! Zhao Ming didn't pay attention to the lieutenant who was still kneeling, but touched his chin that had not yet grown a beard.

"Your Highness, withdraw. Our army has lost this battle, but the main force has not been lost, and the victory or defeat of the comeback is unknown. The adjutant general was still pleading, bowing his head and bowing down.

"Needless to say." Looking at the eyes of the deputy general looking at Zhao Ming, it was like looking at an idiot who was incompetent and exhausted to death by the three armies.

"Report! Our army has retreated to the second camp gate. The enemy forces have already occupied the first line of defense. ”

"Hehe, our army has been defeated. I can't go anymore if I want to. "The lieutenant has despaired and no longer bows down. Got up and drew his sword, I was afraid that I was going to die here.

"Hehe, who said that our army was defeated?" Zhao Ming was not surprised, but admired this deputy general who did not look very old. "Raise the red flag! Signal, it's time to end this war! ”

The war drums left in the main camp beat in unison, and a blood-red red flag slowly rose from the side of the fire. Thousands of miles to the wind, the red flags in front of the white flags move!

"Go ahead! Fight for me for half an hour, and the second gate of the camp will not be lost in half an hour. The brothers in the south camp and the west camp have received a signal, give them some time to block the first camp gate, and I will capture these 3,000 people alive. If you can't stand it for half an hour, wait for me to collect the body. Zhao Ming said with a smile to the deputy general beside him with a pale face.

"Ahh The brothers of Nanying and Xiying are outside? How could it come so quickly. The adjutant general stared at his highness with a pair of bull's eyes, and he didn't realize that the sword in his hand fell to the ground.

"Hehe, Nanying and Xiying have been waiting outside for a signal. They set off in the evening, and if they can't arrive, it's time for all of them to decide on their own. Seeing off the deputy general who had never believed it, Zhao Ming looked at the camp gate.

Under the light of the fire, the second camp gate was not too far, and Zhao Ming could see it clearly without the help of the herald.

The rebels were shooting a few bows and arrows, and at the same time they laboriously pushed the siege vehicle to push it to the second camp gate again, but under Zhao Ming's calculations, the siege vehicle walked extremely slowly, and from time to time it was stuck on the road.

Because Zhao Ming had people dig countless trenches of different depths in front of the camp gate.

These troublesome trenches greatly slowed down the advance of the rebels, and the rebels could only brave the rain of arrows to fill the road while advancing, and Zhao Ming even heard the angry roar of the rebel leader.

Looking at the rebels again, the leader was Wei Xiucai's cousin, who looked at the trench in front of him very depressed, and at a distance of less than three hundred meters, there were five trenches spread out in a semicircle along the camp gate.

It took only a quarter of an hour to fill the first trench and clear the first road to the camp gate.

"How can anyone dig a trench in his own camp?" Cousin Wei was helpless, and looked up at the blurred figure standing on the high platform.

The main target of this attack, the legendary sixth son of the Great Zhao Emperor, only by capturing him, the rebels have the capital to negotiate terms with the imperial court. In order to have the opportunity to tell the situation and clear the charge of rebellion!

Seeing that it was almost the last point, but spending a lot of time here, Cousin Wei seemed to hear the shameless ridicule of the figure on the high platform.

A trace of worry rose in Cousin Wei's heart, the planned Shenwu Army seemed to have disappeared, and it did not bring a trace of trouble to this attack, but the three thousand people agreed upon by Cousin Ning County also disappeared together, leaving only himself to lead the three thousand rebels of Renrong Er County to attack the camp of the Jingzhai Army, was there any accident?

But it has reached this point, and there is no way back!

Cousin, even if he let the Shenwu Army get entangled. I can only rely on myself, and there is still time, the nearest western camp received the news that the whole army rushed over, I am afraid that it will be two hours later, give me half an hour to fill this boring trench, as long as the siege engine reaches the camp gate, the victory still belongs to our army!

Thinking of this, Cousin Wei hurriedly ordered: "Five hundred more people will go up, two hundred people will be covered with wooden shields, and three hundred people will fill in the earth with all their might, and fill in a passage for me to siege vehicles!" ”

Just as Cousin Wei was ruthless and planned to exchange his life for a passage to victory, God or Zhao Ming did not give him this time.

"Report, General Wei! A large number of enemy troops appeared outside the first camp gate, killed our soldiers guarding the gate, and blocked the camp gate with knife carts, and our army's retreat has been cut off! ”

"How is that possible!" General Wei glared at the scout who was still bleeding and couldn't believe it, "Isn't the enemy army from there, the Shenwu Army, pinned down by my cousin?" What about Zhao Ming's troops? ”

"General, the enemy troops who came to attack were all infantry, not Shenwu cavalry, and they were fighting under the banner of the Jingzhai Army's Rui Battalion!"

"No way, the other two battalions can't come so quickly! Can you still fly over? General Wei stared blankly at the scout, his eyes out of focus.

"Our army has lost its way out and is encircled. Please give the general an order, whether to go or to stay. ”

"Let's go? Where to go? General Wei came back to his senses, but the whole person had lost his spirit and sat on the ground behind him.

"Then attack and fight!"

"What to fight? If the enemy is really in the south and west camps, we can be trapped to death. ”

Hearing the news, the leaders who rushed to surround General Wei were silent, they had fallen into a dead place!

"Report, the other party's main camp stopped archery, sounded gold and raised a white flag to ask for dialogue."

"What. Could it be that the other side has surrendered? One of the leaders couldn't help but be overjoyed.

"How is that possible! How can we still surrender if our army is decided. General Wei shook his head.

"What a sixth prince, I'm afraid everything is under your calculations. Even our army will attack the camp tonight, only in this way can we explain why our army is so easy to capture the first camp gate, and can we explain that the broken battalion appeared so timely after entering the camp! Cousin, you've seen through! Wise and almost demonic! I'll go meet him and see what this prince, whose reputation is not obvious, has to say. ”

"General! Beware of deception! ”

"Is it necessary to deceive? It's all come to this. General Wei shook his head.

"Is there a difference between him trying to kill me now and killing me later? Let's see it, I don't know how this South Camp and West Camp flew over, and I am not willing to die! The whole army rests in place! If I don't come back, General Zheng will be the main general, come down, don't waste the lives of the brothers, life or death depends on the destiny of heaven. ”

After General Wei finished speaking, he carefully sorted out his armor and strode towards the camp gate, walking extremely firmly, leaving behind the desperate crowd.
