Chapter 342: Caution
Mu Han stopped talking.
Xue Ling, Qin Shuo, Zheng Shuyu and others put forward several hypotheses one after another, but they were all rejected.
The ultimate goal of the siege is to cut off the food and water in the city, and everyone also makes plans with this as the goal, but Flame City is different from other cities, Flame City can afford it, but it is they who attack the city that cannot afford it.
"Can we only forcibly attack the city?" Qin Shuo frowned and muttered.
Shen Run glanced at Si Chen, Si Chen was looking over, and the two met their eyes, and they both understood what the other party meant.
"The losses caused by the assault are not necessary in this battle." Si Chen said, it's not that you can't attack by force, it's not that you can't attack it, it's unnecessary, and the casualties and losses caused by the forcible siege are not worth the battle of attacking Flame City.
Shen Run agreed with Si Chen's idea, and he also felt that for this additional battle, the losses caused by the strong attack were too heavy and not cost-effective.
"It won't work to consume them, it seems that the only way to do this is to let them take the initiative to fight, but I don't know if the city lord of Flame City will be really so stupid, and he can't hold back to open the city gate." Shen Run said to Si Chen.
Only by letting Flame City take the initiative to open the city gate to attack, it is possible to attack the inner city, but there is no guarantee that Meng Hu will take the initiative to open the city gate to face the battle, because this battle is obvious, as long as Meng Hu does not open the city gate, and they are consumed like this, Flame City will win.
"I brought a lot of gongs and drums." Si Chen said to Shen Run.
Shen Run was slightly stunned, frowned, and thought clearly about what she was going to do, and couldn't laugh or cry a little:
"Scolding?"
Si Chen nodded.
"Do you think you can scold him?" Shen Run asked with a smile.
"It depends on what you scold him, he's a horse bandit and not a turtle with a shrunken head, scold him a few times that he was born of a bitch, his woman steals people in his bed, his son is not his species, he can't give birth to himself at all, or he will come out in a few days, unless he is not a man."
Shen Run thought to himself that her mouth was so vicious.
Indeed, even a man can't bear such humiliation, not to mention that Meng Hu is from a horse bandit, and he is already short-tempered, and he will not choose to be patient.
"You're a woman, you should speak more elegantly." Although he agreed with her proposal, he still blamed her.
"No matter how elegant it is, it won't change." Si Chen disagreed, paused, and said, "Since it's decided, let's implement it, we don't have much time to spend here." ”
Si Chen is an acute child.
Shen Run thought to himself.
Judging from the current situation, for the time being, there is only one way to scold the formation, if you can provoke Meng Hu and let Meng Hu fight, this is the best situation, if not, you can also adjust the battle plan in time according to the reaction of the inner city.
Using insults to provoke Meng Hu into battle was only part of the scolding array, and it was also necessary to create a noisy noise of gongs and drums at night to prevent the other party from sleeping, and make the morale of Flame City sluggish.
Although Flame City has developed to the scale of being able to invade the border of the Central Plains, the horse bandits are horse bandits after all, they only disturb the border, and have no formal combat experience, this is the nest of the horse bandits, and it is their most comfortable place, these people have probably never experienced the constant nuisance of noise day and night. However, the armies of Feng Ming and Long Xiguo came down from the battlefield and had a certain amount of war experience, and psychologically speaking, the horse bandits of the irregular army were inferior, and they were easily defeated psychologically.
After determining the details of the battle, it was already dark, and at dinner time, the soldiers were sitting in the garrison and munching on dry food.
The scolding array started tonight, Si Chen just put forward an idea, there are capable people in the army, and the scolding lines that were driven out were sharp and vicious, thousands of times worse than what Si Chen just said.
Si Chen was very satisfied, such a vicious and vulgar insult, specifically attacking the fatal part of a man, even a dead person would be angry if he heard too much.
When lurking in the inner city, Shen Run had already sent someone to inquire about the identities and backgrounds of several main people in Flame City, and when making up scolding words, people were able to compile the identities and backgrounds of these people together, add oil and vinegar, and distort them into a big drama full of love and hatred.
The people in Flame City are not regular troops, and although they have blood on their hands, they have not undergone formal training and have not actually been on the battlefield, so they are psychologically inferior. And because of the blood of horse bandits in their bodies, the relationship between their superiors and subordinates has been stuck in the stage of bloody killing, and when they hear the rumors of the chief, they will not be indignant at all, but they will listen to it like a book, and they will listen to it with relish, and they can't wait to stretch their ears to listen to it a little more, and even forget that they are defending the city.
There is no reverence for the chief and not tame enough, it is easy to like to see the chief's jokes, hear ugly rumors, regardless of whether it is true or false, with a schadenfreude attitude, a spread of ten to a hundred, the next day the whole city knows that the city lord's woman steals the man, the son of the city lord seems to be the seed of the seventh, it turns out that the city lord is not good, the seventh actually wants to secretly kill the city lord for his own son, I heard that there is a mole on the chest of the city lord's woman, it is the seventh drunk too much in bed to tell the spring flower girl in the west building, Coincidentally, the spring flower girl is actually a woman with a "big flower face" Qian Rong.
The rumors spread like the wind, and people didn't want to believe it, but because they said many details, such as the mole on the chest of the city lord's woman, although few people have seen it, but even such details are there, and the more everyone thinks about it, the more they think about it, the more they think it is true.
There is also Lao Qi and Qian Rong conspiring to poison the city lord in the West Building, after the matter was completed, Lao Qi was the city lord and Qian Rong was the deputy, which happened on the seventh day of the first month of last month. Although I don't know if it's true or not, according to insiders, when I visited the West Building on the seventh day of the first month of last month, I did see Qian Rong and Lao Qi entering the West Building.
Even if you don't want to believe such a lot of news, you have to guess when you hear such details, and the more you guess, the more people believe it.
The details are provided by Si Chen.
Shen Run doesn't think that she is all fake, there must be some of it true, and it is easier to be convincing when half-truths and half-truths are mixed together.
So how exactly did she know these details?
Shen Run remembered that the one who was killed by Si Jiu on the day he fell into the trap was probably the prostitute from the West Building.
After withdrawing from Long Xiguo, Si Chen planted people in Flame City, which showed that she had already planned to attack Flame City. Having made this plan so long ago, this scheming has to be impressive. And her sowing discord, when she was in the inner city, she must have sent someone to the west building to inquire about the news of the inner city from the woman named Iris, Shen Run didn't think that Iris would tell so many details without her asking.
In other words, Si Chen had decided a long time ago to use the scolding array when attacking the city.
Careful thinking, long-term planning, and vicious provocation.
Shen Run suddenly felt that Si Chen's person was actually very terrifying, if he was her enemy.
