Chapter 134, Floating Like a Dream (40)

The Battle of the Empty City, a battle that can go down in history, kicked off on a dark and windy night.

General Lu's original intention was to win a battle first and improve morale, but it couldn't just be a small battle, it was best to go deep into the hinterland.

After researching for a long time, he found that there was a half-empty mountain belly in a natural hazard on the border between the two countries.

He ordered someone to get through quietly, and in order to cover up this place, he sent troops to harass the border of Chen State many times, but fortunately, no one found out his purpose.

He first used the fog in the middle of the night to create the illusion that there were many people attacking the city, of course, the fight was real, but it was not a strong attack, it was just a long-range shot with arrows, and then a catapult to damage the wall.

Naturally, the ladder was prepared, and the fight was quite fierce.

General Lu did not panic at all, because he had long known that there would be such a result, he was attacking Tongcheng, and the defenders of Jiangcheng were estimated to come to support soon, so the soldiers in his shadows had to go deep into the enemy's hinterland before reinforcements arrived.

Although he was not panicking, he was still very anxious, and kept looking in the northwest direction, waiting for a signal.

In this era, there are no fireworks, and wolf smoke can only be used as a signal. I couldn't see anything on this big night, so I had to burn a fire.

It's dry tonight, and a fire could theoretically be started.

After watching the siege for a while, You Yin knew that this was a feint, so he sat in the palace and looked to the northwest as well.

Success or failure is in this move, he doesn't have so much patience to wait, if this move fails, then he can only simply and rudely seize the throne.

Such an act seems a bit unjust, so you can't use it.

The two of them were also confident, and Jiangcheng's reinforcements would not be able to arrive, because they had already been transferred to Sugetai by the bard.

Su Getai was the target of their battle tonight, this place was originally a village, and then an earthquake flooded the entire village, leaving only an open-air stone platform, which was originally built by a Chen royal family named Su Ge, so the place was renamed this name.

Because of the excessive destruction, this place is basically abandoned.

Later, it was occupied by mountain bandits, and some large cracks were directly hollowed out by them and made into caves to live in.

Because of the complex terrain and the baptism of natural disasters, it is more and more difficult to fathom.

This place in the troubadour circle is to guess that there will be a certain gap leading to the country of Lu, which is comparable to General Lu's guess.

General Lu had already bought this group of mountain bandits, gave them power and money, and the mountain bandits, who had no morality, turned against them like this.

With them leading the way, the army of the Lu State could appear on the territory of the Chen State out of thin air overnight.

The trowel had already set up an ambush on the col outside the Sugetai, as long as the army of the Lu State appeared, it would be able to give it a head-on blow.

The night is dark and the wind is high, and when dealing with the infantry, it is natural to be a rolling stone, and the trap is effective.

The mountain road leading to the outside of Sugetai has long been destroyed, so only a small path remains, which is somewhat treacherous, halfway up the mountainside, and below is a rushing river, and it stands to reason that such a path is not suitable for marching.

However, the more this man walked, it became a road, and the sound of the river could drown out the sound of the march.

Everything was going well, but just as they were all about to come out, a shrill eagle chirp was heard.
