The guards didn't expect this to happen, and after clicking the number again, there were indeed three less!

After just thinking about it for a moment, he looked at Qi Heng and said with a fierce expression: "Just now there were five hundred and seventeen people, why are there three less now?" What about people? ”

Qi Heng also pretended to be puzzled and looked at his own people behind him, and asked, "Why are there three missing?" Did any of you see where they went? ”

Listening to Qi Heng's words, everyone shook their heads.

Just when the guard's face was already very ugly, Zheng Guangzu and the three suddenly came out from behind the tent.

Looking at the three people who suddenly appeared, the guard immediately shouted, "Come here!" ”

"Say, where did you just go?"

Zheng Guangzu glanced at Qi Heng without a trace, then lifted the pants on his waist with a smile, and said, "Master Jun, I can't hold it back, so I found a place to ......."

The guard frowned, and glared at Zheng Guangzu fiercely: "This is the camp of the army, not your home, if you dare to run around, be careful of losing your life!" ”

After speaking, he hurriedly returned to the front of Mr. Qian and said, "My lord, there are enough people this time." ”

Mr. Qian naturally saw what happened just now, so he said with a cold face: "Okay, that's it for today, you will stay in the tent at the back for the time being, waiting for me to find you." ”

"Remember, don't run around anymore, and if I am caught acting without permission, military law will deal with it. The latrine is over there, so if you want to go to it yourself. ”

After saying that, he left with the guards around him.

After watching the guards and this Qian Zong leave, Qi Heng turned his head to look at Zheng Guangzu beside him: "How is it?" Did you find anything? ”

Zheng Guangzu shook his head: "The time is too short, I saw the guard coming and hurried back." ”

Qi Heng said: "Forget it, let's explore it at night." ”

Someone has just been found to have left, and if they are found again at this time, their motives are unclear.

To be on the safe side, Qi Heng could only put the matter of probing at night.

Huanggang City.

"Marshal, General Xu, please help!"

"Report! General Tang, please help! ”

Above the city tower, Zhu Yuanzhang listened to the voices of the two heralds, and his face was a little solemn.

It's just an afternoon.

Tokhtar Timur did not seem to be in a hurry to attack the city at all, and every time he sent troops to attack the city, he only sent 10,000 troops.

When the 10,000 troops were repulsed, they directly ordered the substitution to continue.

In this afternoon, the army that has besieged the city five or six times has been changed.

In this way, Zhu Yuanzhang was very puzzled.

At the same time, it also made the defenders of the entire Huanggang City very uncomfortable.

Although the attack of the Yuan army was not strong and the city was not breached at all, their continuous attack on the city made the defenders in Huanggang City tired.

Every time they were ready for a big fight, the Yuan army withdrew, not fighting them to the death at all.

It seems to be deliberately draining their patience and energy.

With the physical exhaustion of the soldiers, the combat effectiveness and desire to fight are gradually depleted.

And every time the Yuan army sent an army to attack the city, it was full of energy.

Over time, the casualty rate of the defenders on all sides continued to increase.

So much so that at this moment, there was a shortage of troops on the west and east sides of Tang He and Xu Da.

The casualty rate of the defenders on their side is also increasing, but because the number of troops is twice as large as theirs, it has not affected the defenders for the time being.

But if the Yuan army continues to wear out such rounds of attacks, then it is only a matter of time before there is a shortage of troops.

He knew all about the situation, but should he send a backup soldier in the city at this time?

The tune can be adjusted, but if Timur suddenly launches a large army to forcibly attack the city, then they will have no spare troops to help.

On top of that, no one knows exactly how long this round of attacks will last.

Chang Yuchun's side in the north has never been attacked by the Yuan army, but he did not dare to let Chang Yuchun easily go to support, and no one knew whether the Yuan army, which had not attacked the northern city wall, would suddenly attack.

Now that the initiative on the battlefield is all controlled by Timur, the defense of the city naturally has the advantage of defending the city, and with the help of the height and thickness of the city wall, it can play a geographical advantage.

But there are advantages and disadvantages, and the disadvantage is that the initiative must be controlled by the side that launched the attack.

And now Tokhtar Timur has brought into full play the advantage of the offensive initiative of the besieging side to the fullest.

Fight whenever I want, when I don't fight, when I don't fight, and my continuous attacks can keep your soldiers without respite.

And a sudden attack can catch you off guard.

Zhu Yuanzhang, who has a very high talent for battlefield warfare, is also keenly aware of this at this time.

For the coach on the opposite side, Timur also changed his previous views.

After thinking about it, it was finally decided to transfer 4,000 spare troops from the city, and allocate 2,000 soldiers to reinforce each side of the west and east.

But looking at the battle that was still going on in front of him, Zhu Yuanzhang didn't know how long the attack of reinforcements would last this time.

Inside the camp of the Tokhtar army.

As night fell, Qi Heng and his party gained a natural advantage in their actions.

Although you need to do your best to avoid the defenders who are on duty.

But the eyes of the countless pairs of soldiers in the barracks during the day were missing.

In the camp tent, Qi Heng, who was waiting, suddenly saw a person walk in front of the door of the barracks tent.

Seeing that it was his own person, he didn't think much about it, and when this soldier came to Qi Heng, he immediately handed him a letter.

"My lord, this is battlefield information from spies outside the city."

Before coming, Qi Heng sent many soldiers from Jinling City to the outside of Huanggang City, constantly collecting information on the battlefield.

Now that he has come here, there is no need to send this information to Jinling City, and Qi Heng has been waiting for this information for a long time.

In the barracks of the Tokhtar army, he knew nothing about the battlefield situation in the outside world.

And now with the arrival of this information, he can grasp the situation outside the city.

After opening the letter and carefully checking the battlefield information recorded in the letter, Qi Heng's brows furrowed.

From this information alone, he could see that the situation in Huanggang City was not good at this time.

At the same time, Qi Heng was also constantly analyzing the true intentions of Timur in this information.

And as he became more and more aware of his intentions for these tactical arrangements of Tokhtar Timur.

An idea that shocked him suddenly popped into his mind.

As he continued to use this information to repeatedly scrutinize and verify his conjecture.

He was surprised to find that this possibility was very high.

And the consequences are very serious.

Qi Heng's expression was sharp, and he immediately said to the soldiers beside him: "Bring me a pen and paper!" ”

Hearing Qi Heng's words, Mu Ying immediately sent him a pen and paper, and at the same time looked at the solemn look on Qi Heng's face, and a sense of foreboding rose in his heart.
