Chapter 240: Stalemate, Hanyue plotted
Soldiers disguised as bandits outside the city stalemate outside Danyang City for two days.
They could not get near the city gates.
The gates of Danyang City would be opened on time every morning, although no one dared to go out of the city, but with the gates so open, they had no way to get in, which was really a very annoying thing.
And gradually, they also found the clues of defending the city.
There were not many archers in the city, but their arrows were very special, although the range was short, but they had no arrow feathers, and they were extremely fast, and as soon as they approached the city walls, they would be baptized by a storm of arrows.
Although their bows and arrows had a long range, Danyang City was like an iron wall, and the arrows fell on it, leaving not even a white spot, let alone hurting people.
It was so embarrassing and stalemate for a few days, and that morning, a horse quietly galloped into the city, bringing bad news to Sikong Yanfei.
"The prince personally brought two generals with 50,000 horses to Danyang City."
Everyone in the council hall who heard the news was stunned.
Fifty thousand horses is not a small number, it seems that the prince of Anhui really wants to move the place of Danyang City.
Everyone's eyes fell on Sikong Yanfei.
Sikong Yanfei smiled disdainfully and shook his head: "The prince is a man who cherishes his life, and he will not be there when he does things like war." ”
As soon as these words came out, many of the generals present showed disdain in their eyes.
is obviously the prince of Anhui, but he is like a woman, timid and afraid of death.
"If the crown prince really came to Danyang City with 50,000 soldiers and horses, how would this be good?" The Magi all felt uneasy, if they started to do it, they were afraid that even if Sikong Yanfei and the royal family really tore their faces, it was likely that they would be incompatible in the future.
"It's just 50,000 soldiers." General Bai spoke, "With the current strength and grain and grass in the city, even if you fight with it, you can't be afraid!" ”
Other generals chimed in.
For them, only war can make them famous.
Sikong Yanfei quietly listened to the generals and wise men arguing endlessly.
Half an hour had passed, and they still hadn't come up with a consensus.
At this moment, there was a guard at the outer gate and said, "Mrs. Yue sent someone over, saying that she had something to tell the king." ”
Sikong Yanfei immediately raised his head, "Please come in." ”
Ya strode into the council hall, and now everyone in the house knew that he was Hanyue's henchman.
Ya came to Sikong Yanfei and saluted respectfully: "Madame has something to convey to her subordinates." ”
"Say."
"There are 10,000 enemy troops outside the city, and my wife has a way to retreat."
In the conference hall, many people gasped.
"Retreat?" Sikong Yanfei repeated the sentence, "How can you retreat?" ”
Ya smiled slightly, "Forgive my subordinates for not being able to tell me, Mrs. Yue has a life, and her words can scare the courage of the enemy troops outside the city, so that she will flee from the wind and will not be taught to commit crimes." ”
In other words, Hanyue can have a way to scare the courage of the enemies outside the city, so that they will never dare to attack Danyang City again after they escape.
But what method to use, Mrs. Yue refused to say, it seems that even their king does not want to tell her.
"How do you do it?" Sikong Yan brought a smile on the corner of his lips.
"The king only needs to lure the enemy to attack the city tomorrow."
Everyone looked at each other.
Sikong Yan nodded: "Got it." ”
The tooth saluted again, then stepped back.
"King!" The wise man couldn't help but get up and said, "This matter needs to be discussed in detail." ”
Sikong Yanfei didn't even look at the Magi, and flicked his sleeves, "General Bai, this matter will be handled by you." ”
"Yes." General Bai responded.
"King!" Several more Magi rose in a hurry.
Sikong Yanfei left the mat at this time and strode towards the door.
"Think twice, how can such a great matter be entrusted to a woman!"
Sikong Yanfei had already walked to the door, and when he heard this, he suddenly stopped, "If you don't entrust it to her, do you still have to entrust it to you?" ”
There was irony in these words, and all the sages changed their faces.
Sikong Yan sneered, "At the beginning, Lone told the monarchs that there were no useless people left around Lonely, and if there were people who were afraid of death, they would go early, and Lonely's decision could no longer be interfered with by you." ”
"Where is such a truth?" A Magi's eyes were about to pop out.
The superior in this world, who does not have to listen to the opinions of the wise men under him to make a decision, has never heard of only listening to the words of the superior alone.
"Listen to the people?" Sikong Yanfei's tone was slightly cold, "For this battle, what kind of strategy have you come up with?" ”
He looked around at the crowd.
The Magi at the front all bowed their heads.
They did not accomplish anything in this battle.
It was Mrs. Yue's idea to repair the city wall, and it was also Mrs. Yue's idea to build a crossbow, and now the most important magic weapon in Danyang City to defend against the enemy is precisely these two things.
Sikong Yan flicked his sleeves and strode away without looking back.
General Bai glanced at the sages in the room and said to the other generals, "Please also ask you to discuss with me." ”
All the generals bowed their hands in unison, "willing to serve." ”
All the generals left, leaving only a dozen Magi in the room staring.
was silent for a long time, and I don't know who sighed: "If it goes on like this, what's the use of me waiting by the king's side, but I can't beat a woman?" Jeopardy! ”
On the second day, the gate of Danyang City suddenly opened, and General Bai took two thousand soldiers out of Danyang City.
The enemy on the opposite side was overjoyed: finally going to war? They have only come out with more than 2,000 people, and are they not throwing themselves into a trap?
General Bai did not go to the front of the two armies to talk to the enemy according to the regular battle situation, but directly led people to kill them.
The enemy troops on the opposite side got up in the morning, some of them still holding rice bowls in their hands, and while eating, they looked at the 2,000 men and horses coming from a distance.
I didn't expect the other party to kill directly.
"Wait, wait!" The enemy leader shouted, "You are a subordinate of the dignified Danyang King, why don't you follow the rules!" ”
General Bai stood on the chariot at the forefront, laughing in his heart, sure enough, Mrs. Yue guessed very accurately, although they were disguised as bandits, they still marched and fought according to the rules of the regular army.
But now they only see each other as bandits, where will they tell them what rules.
General Bai's 2,000 men and horses successfully entered the opponent's military camp, and the wheels flew over, killing all of them whether they saw people or horses.
Han Yue and Sikong Yanfei were both on the tower of Danyang City, quietly watching the battle outside.
Han Yue squinted, she had no martial arts, and she couldn't see the situation of the enemy camp on the other side.
"It's almost time to go back." She muttered, "The rise of General Bai who won't kill, forget about it." ”
"No, it won't." Sikong Yan said quietly, "He is cautious, so Lone chose him as a pioneer." ”
As soon as the words fell, the teeth behind him answered: "General Bai, they are starting to retreat." ”
After easily entering the enemy camp, it is a little difficult to get out.
Han Yue nervously watched as the battle army in the distance gradually approached the city gate, and the enemy army behind him was rolling in like a black tide.
Closer, closer......
Han Yue suddenly raised her hand.
At the same time, a figure dressed in black witch robes appeared at the top of the city, with a black hood on his head and a black veil covering his face.
"It's the Great Witch!" Some of the enemy soldiers had sharp eyes and screamed.
