Chapter 13: Strategies Against the Enemy

"The battle lasted until the ugly hour, we were fine, but General Li and Zhao Qianhu and several generals were sacrificed, although our army annihilated more than 30,000 enemy troops ashore, but because Chen Ming and Sun Zhihua deliberately delayed the march process, our army also suffered heavy losses, more than 40,000 soldiers and horses are now only more than 10,000 people, and the enemy army still has about 70,000 or 80,000 soldiers and horses, if the reinforcements cannot arrive before the enemy comes, I am afraid that Rongcheng will be lost."

"Zhao Motou...... No, it's Zhao Qianhu, did he say anything? Xu Mengmeng's voice trembled a little.

"He said that you are the hope of Rongcheng and the hope of the entire Eastern Jin Dynasty, so you must be good, he believes in you!"

"Hope, hehe~ 50,000 people are now only more than 10,000 people left, this is the so-called hope? Then my hope is really useless! Xu Mengmeng's eyes were filled with tears, her heart was panicked, and she was almost out of breath due to the pressure of the discomfort.

"Miss doesn't have to blame herself, after all, there are many enemy troops, if it weren't for Miss, maybe Rongcheng would have been broken a long time ago! As for Zhao Qianhu, he did the right thing, in other words, I would choose to save Miss first in that situation, not because you are Miss, just because you might come up with a way to protect Rongcheng, that's all! ”

Chi Yu knew that it would be uncomfortable for anyone to put such a thing, but if the young lady at this time didn't cheer up as soon as possible, the sacrifice would only be more, not to mention that Zhao Hu believed in the young lady, he himself also had an inexplicable sense of trust in her, and always felt that with the young lady there, Rong Cheng should be able to keep it, although he also felt that it was a bit fantastical, and he didn't know where this trust came from.

"I'm tired and want to take a break, you go down first!"

Xu Mengmeng also knew that now was not the time for him to be sad, and the top priority was how to solve the crisis of Rongcheng in order to live up to everyone's wishes.

Xu Mengmeng spent the morning hiding in the room to write and draw, but when he thought that the enemy army had 70,000 or 80,000 people, and his side was only more than 10,000 people, he was anxious, and he couldn't calm down for a while, and he couldn't come up with any good way all morning.

Xu Mengmeng opened the door and wanted to go out to breathe, now it is in Chen Ming's previous mansion, this house is not small, it is rockery and flowing water and flowers, it can be seen that this old guy is not less greedy and perverts the law, it is really a thing that will be enjoyed! Now that Chen Ming and Sun Zhihua are being detained, and most of the generals in the city are also killed or injured, there are few people here, and they are all deserted.

Walked out of Chen's house, only to find that this house was in the center of Rongcheng, thinking about how prosperous and lively this street should have been before the enemy army came, now the people have fled, and the sergeants are only 10,000 people, this huge Rongcheng is empty, and the empty city has a fight!

Empty City ...... Wait a minute! Empty City Scheme! Xu Mengmeng had a flash of inspiration in his mind, and suddenly remembered the famous battle in the history of Huaguo, his breathing suddenly became a little shorter, and he didn't care about being injured, so he quickly ran back to the room to write and paint.

"No, it's not enough to just have an empty city plan, what if the enemy general is an arrogant and belligerent reckless man, not only is he not fooled, but he rushes in directly regardless of it? I've got to get a plan B......"

Xu Mengmeng's brain was spinning rapidly, and his mouth was constantly fragmenting thoughts, and the whole person fell into a state of obsession.

"Empty City...... Storm the city...... Ambush...... Yes, we will ambush them first and send someone to lead them to an urn on a street to catch turtles! At that time, even if they can't let their entire army be wiped out, they can still break their muscles and bones, and they will not dare to attack again, and as long as their own side guards until the reinforcements arrive, they can only retreat even if they are unwilling! ”

The more Xu Mengmeng thought about it, the more he felt that his plan was feasible, and grabbed the paper in his hand and went out to find General Wu.

Wu ...... General Wu "ran almost half the street to find someone else in the wounded barracks, and Xu Mengmeng was so tired that he couldn't do it."

"Ning boy, you're awake! What happened to the injuries on the body? Come and let the medic show you again? Without waiting for Xu Mengmeng to speak, Wu Feng grabbed him and went to find a military doctor.

"My injuries are fine, I came to you for something urgent, come with me!" Xu Mengmeng grabbed him with his backhand and dragged him out, completely unaware that the clothes at the wound were stained red with blood again.

"Alas, you kid slow down, you see that your wound is bleeding again, let's bandage it here first and then we will discuss the urgent matter in your mouth!" Wu Feng looked at the red piece on Ning Jun's shoulder and opened his mouth to persuade.

"My life is almost gone, why do you care about this little injury! Hurry up and call the rest of the generals to the council hall, and we'll hurry up and plan up for the enemy before the enemy arrives! ”

Xu Mengmeng was really anxious, after all, the battle at Qiaokou caused Xichu to lose more than 30,000 people, and it also broke their dream of easily taking Rongcheng through the north gate, they must be very angry in their hearts, they must have to find a way to take Rongcheng as soon as possible so that they can give an explanation to the above.

Therefore, the speed of the march will definitely speed up a lot, and if it is fast, it will arrive this evening, and I really need to make some preparations on my side, so there is no time to care if I am injured.

"Okay, I knew you kid had a way!" Wu Feng happily slapped Xu Mengmeng's shoulder, successfully provoked her angry eyes, and saw Xu Mengmeng staring at himself with a gloomy face, and someone who reacted afterwards touched his nose, threw down a sentence of "I'll call someone" and ran away quickly, leaving Xu Mengmeng standing in place and gritting his teeth at his back, this group of rough men is really underbeaten!

The people Wu Feng called were the remaining generals Qianhu and others he brought this time, Xu Mengmeng saw Yinyue, Chi Yu and Mu Feng among the twelve horsemen, which was not surprising, after all, their abilities can indeed be mixed like a fish in water in a place like the battlefield, and the people have already arrived, Xu Mengmeng seized the time to explain his plan.

"At present, the enemy army does not know how much military strength we still have on our side, and our purpose is mainly to drag them down, now my first plan is the empty city plan, the so-called empty city plan is that we want to act, to create a false impression that the people in the city live and work in peace and contentment, so that they think that our reinforcements have arrived, the soldiers and horses are strong, and they are completely fearless about their next attack, so if they are confused, they will not attack easily, and will even find a way to enter the city to find out the truth before making plans.

If they are not deceived, we will adopt the second plan - catch turtles in the urn, our men and horses first set up an ambush in the high place of the house next to the street in the city and on the tower of the city gate, and wait for the enemy troops to enter part of the city gate and immediately close the city gate, the soldiers on the city tower throw wood and stones outside the door to block their entry, and the soldiers who are ambushed by the street throw smoke, oil and wine and torches at the enemy army who are locked up, and then quickly enter the enemy camp in the middle plan and annihilate them in one fell swoop. ”

"I know both options are risky, but so far it's the only way we can save ourselves. If you think it is feasible, notify it, and then quickly deploy, of which the deployment at the city gate is the key, it is best to let everyone voluntarily stand up and choose! ”

Xu Mengmeng also understands that people are somewhat greedy for life and afraid of death, and as the soldiers who will guard the city gate next, there are absolutely few survivors, so she does not want to force others to die, but hopes that there will be at least some tough guys who are not afraid of death among the more than 10,000 people who are not afraid of death to stand up themselves.
