Chen Xiansong noticed that the three people in charge of stalking were blind to his actions, so he was bold, he connected the two curtains, and then twisted them into a rope, one end tied to the roof beam used to hang the oil lamp, and the other end was tied into several dead knots to increase the weight so that it could be held and thrown around.

The three mercenaries looked at him from time to time, but because they couldn't understand the deep meaning of Chen Xiansong's behavior, they thought he was just bored and playing, so they didn't pay much attention to it. Then shift the vision to the battlefield ahead. Sosi was commanding the army, and as Chen Xiansong had said, he sent heavy armor and archers to attack the enemy troops in Shangdao, and sent cavalry to guard the small hill that Chen Xiansong had pointed out earlier.

After such an order was given, Sosi was very calm. Although he never commanded an army, he trusted the eyes of professionals. In his opinion, now it is enough to wait for victory, Leonardo, like him, is not a war soul thinker, nor does he have the experience of commanding armies, so he feels that the other party will not know how to crack the tactics that Chen Xiansong instructed him.

And when Sosi was so insistent, behind the arrows of the city wall, the head of the Loge City, Leonardo, with a few of his students, was watching the scene in front of him. His student Casal frowned and said: "It's strange, Sosi should be the same as us, not a war soul thinker, right, since we have put on the defensive, and the teacher you have also used a false strategy in the trade road according to the secret book, why do you dare to take the initiative to attack us, this is not like all the practices of a sane person." ”

Leonardo did not speak, after the accident in the royal city, the Andaksoyer family went to the royal city and took most of the troops in the city, and now he has less than six hundred troops. Sosi, on the other hand, had a thousand troops, and they were numerically inferior, so they had to go on the defensive. Originally, he was not supposed to command this battle, but the officers who passed by were all taken away by the Andak Soksoya family, and all those who remained were squad leaders and the like, who had never experienced more than hundreds of battles, and had never commanded more than a hundred troops, so if they were in command. It's going to be messy, and Leonardo thinks it's better to be the commander himself.

After all, Leonardo's family also has some books on warfare, although not very advanced. However, some basic formations are still documented. He knew Sosi as a person, and he was cautious in his words. To put it mildly is to be timid. Just put on the defensive. He believed that Sosi should not force his way in. But the situation in front of him was really unexpected.

Sosi, who had always been regarded as timid by him, actually took the initiative to attack.

This annoyed him a little, but his face didn't show it, and he was followed by his four students, no matter what, decent stuff. You have to keep it all the time, especially in front of the students. When he saw the heavily armored soldier walking forward with his shield raised, he felt that something was wrong, and then he saw the archers following closely behind. His heart shook for a moment, and when he saw the cavalry move to the small hill diagonally opposite the city gate, his face finally changed.

"Casal, raise the flag, hurry up and get the archers back." Leonardo knocked on the wall hard, although he had not commanded any war, but he still had a basic vision: "Sosi will definitely not be able to think of such a tactic specially arranged for me, and he has also ignored my false strategy, this is not like his style, behind him, there must be a person who is good at the art of war to help him, who is it?" ”

Casal waved two small red flags, the strips of cloth rattled in the air, after the signal, only to find that the long-range troops on the trade route had been attacked, the archers who followed the heavy armor soldiers in Sosi had already begun the first round of strafing, a rain of arrows went down, and Leonardo's side lost more than 20 people, when Casal used the flag to give the order, the army on the trade road began to retreat, at this time Sosi's archer troops under the protection of the heavy armor soldiers, methodically re-pulled the string, and another burst of arrows went down, The other party discounted about twenty people.

Leonardo was upstairs, and he could see all this clearly, his fists were clenched extremely tightly, and he had not yet tried to engage the enemy, and there were already nearly fifty fewer people on his side, and a long-range unit was only more than three hundred, and a sixth of them were killed before the battle began.

There was also an improvised gate at Shangdao, from where the archers of the Logwood Castle Army retreated out of the range of Sosi's archers, and from there they began to return to the city. It took some time to remove the barrier because of the resistance of the horses, and by the time the heavy armoured soldiers could move freely, all the enemy archers had withdrawn to the city.

Leonardo stood on the city wall, watching the enemy tear down the rejected horses on the trade road one by one, his heart was full of depression, President Artemis had already guessed that Sosi would fall to Riccarddo's side, and sent a message that if the other party led troops to aid the Emperor's Fall City, let him find a way to block the enemy for a few days, but the current situation seems that he can't stop it for a day.

"Damn, where did Sosi find the War Soul Ponderer?" Leonardo's face was gloomy, and most of the people around him were forced by his momentum to take the initiative to talk to him.

Casal was an exception, and he thought for a moment and said, "I heard from the grapevine that a few days ago, the convoy of Udir and Chen Xiansong passed by our Yuanmu City at night. And the spies on the side of Emperor Fall City came and disappeared, and Chen Xiansong was suspected of being a deep thinker of the soul of war, and he destroyed one of Riccardo's knights without a single soldier. I wonder if Chen Xiansong was accidentally caught by Suoxi, and then gave advice to Suoxi over there! ”

The greatest strength of the soul-contemplating person is that he does not dare to think about others. Leonardo felt that Casal's assumption was somewhat reasonable, but he still had some doubts: "Chen Xiansong killed more than 200 knights of Riccard in order to escape from Emperor Fall City, that is a knight, this is already a mortal enemy, can he give advice to Soxi?" ”

"I feel that it is Chen Xiansong who has a mortal enmity with Riccardo." Casal said slowly: "If it were me, I would definitely be angry at first when I lost more than two hundred knights, but after I calmed down, I would have other thoughts." Since Chen Xiansong can kill more than 200 knights without wasting a single soldier, this shows that he is very likely to be a war soul thinker, such a talent, even if 20,000 knights can't be exchanged. If you catch it, it's better to use it for your own use than to kill it. ”

Cassar's words are very reasonable, Leonardo thinks about it, it's true, swap positions, he will do the same, if he can't submit Chen Xiansong, kill it, in case he recruits the other party, it's really a big profit.

Thinking that there might be a soul thinker on the other side paying attention to this, Leonardo was a little frightened in his heart, thinking to himself, it would be good if he had known that some time ago, Chen Xiansong would have died in Yuanmu City.

However, he also knew that it was too late to regret it now, and the only way now was to defend the city, and not let Sosi break the city.

Sosi watched his heavily armored army dismantle all the rejected horses, and the trade road in front of him was unimpeded, he smiled loudly, returned to Chen Xiansong's carriage, and said: "Your Excellency, sure enough, after placing the cavalry in that place, Leonardo will not dare to send people out to attack my army; The big smoke and dust on the side of the business road, sure enough, it was made by a few cavalrymen running back and forth with small saplings, it is indeed a false soldier, you really deserve to be a deep thinker of the soul of war, the old man is not admirable. ”

"Now you can pass through the trade road, there are no traps, there is no rejection of horses, even if the Yuanmu City side sends archers to shoot on the city wall, as long as you send heavy armor soldiers to set up a shield wall on the side of the road, others can pass safely, of course, there are unlucky ghosts who are shot to death by stray arrows, I can't help it." Chen Xiansong was talking while looking at the Yuanmu City in the distance, and his heart became more and more helpless, he just said casually, he wanted Suoxi to die more soldiers, so as to facilitate his escape plan, but he didn't expect that he really let him say it.

Suoxi was happy to hear that he could pass through the trade road safely, but he pondered for a while and said, "Your Excellency Chen, I have a new idea now. With a soul thinker like you among us, I was actually just thinking about how to pass through the Log City safely, the mental pattern was too small, I was already reflecting on it, and then came to the conclusion that we should not take the Log City. ”

"You have a big appetite, don't you?" After hearing this, Chen Xiansong was stunned for a moment, and then shook his head: "You didn't bring siege equipment at all, how can you siege the city." And now that Leonardo's army of archers has withdrawn to the city, as long as it is placed on the walls, it is useless if you don't send more people. The archer is far away, and it is true that he can't shoot through the armor of a heavy armorer, but it's hard to say when it's close. ”

These words had the meaning of reprimand, but Suosi didn't care, and smiled indifferently: "I believe that Your Excellency has a way." ”

"It's useless for you to praise me again." Chen Xiansong leaned his head on the car window, not wanting to pay attention to him anymore.

Sosi didn't leave, but waited quietly, he felt that Chen Xiansong was thinking.

Even though it's almost summer, it's still cool in the morning. On the right side of the log city is the business road, and on the right side of the business road, there is an oblique river embankment, on both sides of the river embankment, there is a tall apricot press forest, the breeze blows from the other side of the river, Chen Xiansong watched the apricot in the distance slowly shake around according to the crown, and suddenly there was a flash of inspiration, and many things were connected in an instant.

"All of a sudden, I had an idea." Chen Xiansong looked at Suoxi and said slowly: "But I don't dare to guarantee that it will definitely succeed." ”

Sosi was overjoyed: "Please say, if there is anything you need, please feel free to mention it." ”

Chen Xiansong's eyes fell on Soxi's herald, and he hung a delicate sheepskin water bag around his waist, which was Suoxi's special water bag, which was very valuable and said to be very promising, and Suoxi loved it very much.

"I want your hydration bladder, will you give it to me?" Chen Xiansong asked.

Sosi smiled: "Your Excellency likes it, you should have told me a long time ago." ”

He asked the herald to hand over the water bag to Chen Xiansong, and his heart was excited, compared to a city, a simple luxurious water bag is nothing. (To be continued......)
