"Helan is not advancing in Mington, we still need to make long-term plans, although there are thousands of grains and grass sent by General Pan, but there are more than 20,000 soldiers and civilians in the city, so we still have to save some. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info" After drinking a bowl of gruel, Zhang Xun recovered a little bit of vitality, and he called Xu Yuan, Lei Wanchun, Jia Ben, Yao Yu, Li You, Pan Feng and others to come to the city wall to discuss countermeasures.

"Xu has already made arrangements, the food will be eaten by the soldiers defending the city first, and the people in the city can only drink two bowls of gruel every day." Xu Yuan assisted Zhang Xun in handling the chores, these are all used to it, "In addition, we can't raise so many cattle, sheep and horses that General Nan snatched back, except for the horses left for the cavalry to go out of the city to fight, the others will be killed first to fill the stomachs of the soldiers." ”

The bark of the trees in Suiyang City is about to be gnawed away, and where is the forage to feed these cattle, sheep and horses, although he is reluctant, Xu Yuan can only deal with it like this.

"10,000 stone of grain, plus these cattle, sheep and horses, we can hold on for a few more months." Speaking of this, Zhang Xun changed his words, "But if there are no reinforcements, we will still not be able to hold on after a few months, so we have to find a way." ”

"I heard Nanba say that now Marshal Guo has begun to recover Chang'an, the rebels are now at a disadvantage, if we can kill Yin Ziqi, then the rebels will collapse immediately, and the siege of Suiyang can be lifted." Lei Wanchun thought for a moment and said.

"This Yin Ziqi is cunning and cunning, he has always cherished his life and refused to come to the front of the battle, if he wants to kill him, how easy is it?" Jia Ben shook his head and said.

Everyone came and went to offer their own ideas, but unfortunately there was no good way, Zhang Xun listened silently on the side, and after a while, he suddenly said, "There is a plan, maybe you can lure that Yin Ziqi." ”

"What's the best plan for Zhongcheng?" Everyone immediately turned their attention to Zhang Xun, he led the army to fight against the rebels, from Yongqiu to Ningling to Suiyang, and his wisdom caused huge damage to the rebels one after another, if it weren't for him, these more than 6,000 people would definitely not be able to stop Yin Ziqi's more than 100,000 troops, and now when they heard that Zhang Xun had a plan, everyone hurriedly asked.

"This time, Nanba brought back reinforcements, Yin Ziqi may have guessed that we already have food, but probably won't guess that we still have arrows." Governor Zhang said, "We might as well make some articles from here to lure that Yin Ziqi forward." Then Zhang Xun elaborated on his plan, and the generals kept nodding their heads in agreement.

After the battle in the morning, Yin Ziqi's rebels did not attack the city again, and when night fell, except for the soldiers stationed on the city wall, Suiyang City fell into silence; And in Yin Ziqi's camp, the rebels also began to sleep.

At three o'clock in the morning (about half past four in the morning), there was a sudden noise at the head of Suiyang City, and a group of soldiers appeared at the head of the city, and about 100 soldiers dressed in black were hung by them with ropes to take down the city, as if they were going to take advantage of the night to sneak attack Yin Ziqi's army.

Well? What is that? The sentry on the rebel arrow tower hurriedly rubbed his eyes and looked at the city wall, and more than a hundred black shadows had reached the middle of the city wall, and seeing that he was about to land, he hurriedly sent a signal to remind the enemy that the enemy was about to attack.

"Enemy attack on the city?" Yin Ziqi hurriedly climbed out of the tent and looked at it from afar, the expression on his face was cloudy, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

"General, while the enemy army is still in the middle of the city wall, let's quickly shoot them with arrows, shall we?" Seeing this, a rebel adjutant general hurriedly said, "If you wait for them to go down to the city, it won't be so easy. So saying, he prepared to go down and gather the archers.

"Slow!" Yin Ziqi looked at it carefully for a while before he stopped him and said, "From a distance, these people are acting a little weird, it doesn't seem like they are here for a sneak attack. ”

"General, why is that?" A general of the Xi people asked blankly, what is the reason why the enemy is about to leave the city and still attack.

"Hehe, if Ben is not mistaken, those are not real people, but scarecrows in black." Yin Ziqi said with a smile, "In the past, when Zhang Xun fought with Ling Fox Chao in Yongqiu, the city ran out of arrows, so he took advantage of the night to put down countless scarecrows from the city wall, and the fox tide concluded that Zhang Xun sent troops to sneak attack, so he ordered the soldiers to release arrows to the city; Zhang Xun took back the scarecrow during the day and got hundreds of thousands of arrows, and now it is just a repetition of the old trick. ”

"So it seems that there are no arrows in Suiyang City, and our army will be able to break through this city tomorrow." The Xi general was overjoyed when he heard this, and immediately hugged his fists and said, "The last general, please be the vanguard of tomorrow's siege." ”

"That's not necessarily, this patrol is sinister and cunning, scheming, maybe this is his trick again, right?" Yin Ziqi replied uncertainly, "We will only know when we attack the city tomorrow." ”

After that, Yin Ziqi turned around and left, "Mobilize the archers, release the rockets, and burn all these straw men for me; Tomorrow morning, the army will be reorganized and ready to attack the city. ”

Thousands of archers lit the arrows on the torches with strips of cloth soaked in grease, and shot at the black-clothed men in the middle of the city wall in unison, and there was no scream where the rockets went, but a raging fire, it seemed that as Yin Ziqi guessed, these were the scarecrows that Zhang Xun used to lure them into shooting.

"He wants to be Zhuge Kongming, but a certain family is not Cao Mengde." Yin Ziqi said with a smile, and the generals beside him naturally touted again.

Two hours later, the army holding the Yanzi banner densely pressed towards Suiyang City, and the person in the lead was the general of the Xi people who asked Yin Ziqi to fight last night, he was wearing heavy armor and dancing with a long knife at the front of the team, while commanding the army under his command while carefully guarding against the arrows flying from the city.

When he arrived at the land of an arrow, the archery still did not start on the city, which made him feel a lot more relieved, and he walked forward cautiously for dozens of steps, seeing that he was about to reach the moat.

Suddenly a general with a longbow flashed out of the city, and he shot at him with a bow and arrow; The taunting general was only about to dodge, but unfortunately the arrow was as fast as lightning, and before he could dodge it, the arrow snapped into his chest.

Is a certain family going to die? The Xi general closed his eyes and waited quietly for the impending severe pain, who knew that after a long while, there was no abnormality.

He opened his eyes and looked down, and there was an arrow made of wooden strips hanging from his chest, and the Tang army general only sharpened the wooden strip, but did not attach it to the iron arrowhead.

"Haha, the defenders on the city wall are left with no arrows!" The Xi general, who had escaped death, was overjoyed, and hurriedly raised the wooden arrow in his hand and shouted loudly, and the sound reached Yin Ziqi's ears. (To be continued.) )
