Chapter 248: Caught off guard

Tao Hua looked at Chu Feng and asked tentatively, "General Chu is so familiar with Cao Xiong's defense, he must have a solution in his heart, right?"

Chu Feng smiled and said: "As for the plan to lead the enemy deep, the general can resolve it step by step, as long as the general does not take the enemy lightly, a village, a town, and a city will be captured and encroached, and in the end, Cao Xiong will lift a stone and shoot himself in the foot." ”

"Okay! good strategy! haha-"

Tao Hua looked up and laughed, that's right, didn't Cao Xiong ambush all his troops in the west of Wangfeng County? Then he would first capture the central and eastern parts of Wangfeng County, first take a few cities, base himself on the merits, grab enough property, and then continue to advance westward, leading the ambush troops there to make trouble, he can pretend to be invincible, and retreat in defeat, so that he can make great achievements and successfully complete the tasks assigned by the adults, killing two birds with one stone.

Conquering Chu Feng is undoubtedly a treasure for Tao Hua, he carefully checked the defense map of Fanwangfeng County, with his current location, and then westward, he will arrive at Sifang City, according to the record of the defense map, there are less than 5,000 defenders there, if this is the case, he can definitely take Sifang City lightly.

Although he trusted Chu Feng very much, Tao Hua still kept an eye on it and continued to send a large number of spies to explore the surroundings of Daiyun City to see if there was an ambush by the wooden army.

After the spies reported that they had not found the enemy, Tao Hua relieved himself and marched westward, approaching Sifang City.

He was also afraid that the defense map provided by Chu Feng was wrong, if there were not only 5,000 defenders in the Sifang City, but 50,000 defenders, wouldn't his own attack hit the stone?

At first, he only sent a small force to make a tentative attack, but found that the defenders in the city had little resistance, and Tao Hua's courage gradually increased, mobilized the whole army, and besieged the city.

The defender of the city definitely has a geographical advantage. But with less than 5,000 defenders, it is simply impossible to defend against a 60,000-strong army from all sides.

Before half an hour of the siege battle, a vanguard army led by Jin Cheng took the lead in entering the city, followed by Zhou Hai, who attacked from the south of the city. Convergence with Jincheng in the city.

If the Jin army is rejected outside the city, the defenders in the city can still resist a little, and now the Jin army has broken the city and entered the city, the fighting spirit of the defenders has suddenly been lost, and the vast majority of people no longer do useless resistance, and have disarmed and surrendered.

It can be said that the Third Army successfully captured Sifang City almost bloodlessly.

An army of 60,000 entered the city, divided into two routes, and went to capture the city lord's mansion, and went to the silver treasury and granary in the city.

Even the city was lost. As soon as the Jin army arrived, the city lord of Sifang City took the lead in surrendering, and Tao Hua ordered the city lord to be imprisoned first, and then he led the generals to inspect the silver treasury and granary.

When he saw the granary in the city, his eyes suddenly smiled, there is food in the wood country!

In the huge granary, the rice was piled up, and it was about to overflow. It just so happens that your own armament is insufficient, these grains. There is a lot of surplus to solve the needs, and he can imagine how happy he is to transport this grain back to Jiangxi!

After inspecting the granary, Tao Hua's mood was also extremely refreshing. Then he went to check the silver vault, well, there were a million taels of silver that could be transported away in the future, and this was another huge trophy.

Tao Huale's mouth couldn't be closed, and the other generals of the Third Army were also overjoyed. Eyes lit up.

The vast majority of soldiers have never seen so much silver in their lives.

Tao Hua couldn't help but look up to the sky and sigh excitedly: "God really helps my family, Tianxing my big gold!"

Now is the time when the Jin country is most short of money, and only one city has seized as much as one million taels of silver, if all the remaining towns in Wangfeng County are defeated, the silver seized will not be nearly ten million taels!

Tao Hua, who had been excited for a long time, finally came back to his senses, and said to his subordinate soldiers urgently: "Hurry! Hurry up and seal all the silver in the silver vault, and tomorrow morning, all of them will be transported back to Jiangxi and dedicated to adults!"

"Yes, General!" replied the officers and men of the Third Legion.

At this time, people have tasted the sweetness, a hundred times more ambitious, high-spirited, no need to ask, after the end of this battle, the adults will definitely have a rich reward for them.

After the Third Army took the Sifang City, it quickly controlled the situation in the city, because the booty obtained in the city was very rich, and the Jin army was strictly enforcing military discipline, Tao Hua, who was in a good mood, specially issued an order to treat the people in the city well and not to rob the people's property privately.

For those Mu troops who surrendered on their own initiative, Tao Hua did not make it difficult for them, but only temporarily imprisoned them, preparing to send them back to Jiangxi along with the captured booty to ask Lin Haotian for credit.

When it was nearly evening, Tao Hua asked the whole army to be stationed in the city, and he himself lived in the city lord's mansion.

He had just arrived at the City Lord's Mansion, and before his butt was hot in the main hall, Chu Feng and several generals approached from outside.

One of the generals arched his hand and said, "General, when I was searching the city just now, I found something unusual. ”

"Oh?" Tao Hua raised his head and asked, "What's the matter?"

"General, there are only men in the city, but there are no women...... the general said with a frown.

Before Tao Hua could speak, Chu Feng snorted and laughed, and said, "I know about this." ”

Tao Hua looked at Shi Jie and asked, "What's the matter?"

Since it was not easy to speak, Chu Feng pondered how to phrase it as he spoke, and he said, "Our army ...... The style of our army has always been ...... It is said that when I first entered Jiangxi, adultery with women often occurred, so the women of all the cities in the county had migrated to Linjun. ”

"So that's the case!" Tao Hua was stunned for a moment, then shook his head, laughed on his back, and said: "Our army's military style and discipline have always been strictly prohibited, and there are only a few people who do illegal acts.

Chu Feng arched his hand, gave a deep salute, and said: "The two countries are at war, and they don't hurt the innocent, the good ones are good, and the general's products are admired by the general!"

Hearing his praise, Tao Hua laughed again, waved his hand and said, "All the generals have worked hard all day, and they are all tired, go back and rest!"

"Yes!

Everyone was about to leave, Tao Hua seemed to think of something again, stopped everyone, and said: "Although our army took the Sifang City lightly, the vigilance tonight cannot be relaxed, especially the open and dark posts arranged outside the city, we must cheer up and strictly prevent the enemy from sneaking attack." ”

"Yes! General!"

Tao Hua finished explaining all the things that should be explained, put his mind at ease, sent away the generals under his command, and then ordered the guards to prepare wine and food, ate and drank in the city lord's mansion, and then fell on top of the collapse and slept in clothes.

In Tao Hua's mind, the task of entering Wangfeng County this time should be a very easy errand, it doesn't take much effort to return triumphantly, and there will be no accidents tonight, after all, he has taken down the Sifang City, and occupying the city, the possibility of the enemy coming to sneak attack is very small.

However, he expected the impossible to be released, he thought that the wooden army would not sneak attack, but the wooden army really came to the door, he thought that even if the wooden army came, it would have to come from outside the city, and the wooden army came out of the city.

Four watch days, ugly times.

When Tao Hua was asleep, there was a faint sound of shouting and killing in the ear chakra, and the sound was getting louder and closer.

Tao Hua woke up from his sleep, he lay on the collapse and was stunned for a moment, and then his body trembled, as if he had been stepped on by his tail and jumped up from the collapse, he was completely sleepy, he was barefoot, three steps and two steps, walked to the door of the room, pushed the gatehouse violently, raised his eyes and looked out, okay, I saw a red outside, the huge Daiyun City, fire everywhere, the fire soared to the sky, and it seemed that the whole city was lit.

Before Tao Hua could figure out what was going on, two guards hurriedly ran over with a bloodied general.

When Tao Hua approached, the general pushed away the two guards who were supporting him, and before he could speak, snot and tears flowed out first, and he fell to the ground with a plop, and cried in a trembling voice: "General, the big thing is not good, the people in the city are all ambushes of the Mu Kingdom, the enemy sneaks up on the night, and our army is not well prepared...... The city is now full of enemy troops, so run away, General!"

"Huh?!"

When Tao Hua heard this, his head buzzed, and he almost collapsed to the ground on the spot, and the people in the city were all disguised by the wooden army...... How is this possible? Isn't the Mu army ambushed to the west of Wangfeng County? How can it be in Sifang City?

Until this time, Tao Hua did not realize that he had been fooled. (To be continued......)
