Chapter 80 100,000 Qiang soldiers besiege Longxi

You Chu has always relied on Cao Zhi, the chief historian under his command, and when he heard Cao Zhi say this, he also had an extra heart, so he nodded.

Cao Zhi shouted to the fellow troops outside the city:

"In order to prevent spies from entering the city, you will put down your weapons first, and then enter the city in turn, after entering the city, my Great Wei will return the weapons!"

The Qiang soldiers of the Vatong tribe outside the city were not very willing to put down their weapons.

Changshi Cao Zhi was very persistent and said to the Qiang soldiers:

"You can't enter the city without putting down your weapons!"

After some negotiations, seeing that he could not say that he could not move the long Shi Cao Zhi, the leader of the Qiang tribe could only compromise, and quietly ordered the soldiers to discard bows, arrows and spears, hide short blades, and slowly enter the city.

Immediately, the soldiers of the same division threw their weapons into several piles.

After a long time, all the Qiang soldiers outside the city had lost their weapons, and they had lined up a long snake formation according to Cao Zhi's requirements, dismounted and led their horses to prepare to enter the city.

After the Qiang soldiers were fully prepared to enter the city, the gate of Longxi slowly opened.

The white-robed chief Shi Cao Zhi personally went down to the city tower to meet with the leader of the same tribe, wanting to see for himself whether this group of soldiers still had blades hidden in their possession.

When the leader of the Vatong tribe saw that the person who came was a handsome and almost glamorous scholar, he immediately felt that this person should not be a person who practiced martial arts, and when he seized the city gate later, he could start with this person first!

The soldiers of the same division slowly entered the city, and because of the array arranged in advance, the efficiency of entering the city was obviously much higher.

When about a thousand men entered the city, the chiefs of the Vatong tribe followed them. Seeing this white-robed scholar coming over, the leader of the Var Tong tribe quietly put his hand into his waist, ready to pull out the dagger and hold the scholar hostage.

Unexpectedly, this action happened to be seen clearly by Cao Zhi, and when the blade of the leader of the Var Tong Sect shone with a hint of silver light, the white-robed scholar rushed towards the leader of the Var Tong Clan.

"Just in time!"

The leader of the Vatong tribe shouted, pulled out the dagger at his waist sharply, and stabbed at the white-robed scholar.

Unexpectedly, the white-robed scholar did not dodge, his hands spread out violently, and then the two palms struck together, clamping the dagger that stabbed over, and suddenly the white-robed young man's body exploded with lightning.

"Thunder, thunder in the palm of your hand!"

The white-robed scholar shouted, and suddenly a visible thunder light flashed in his palm, and with the sound of "Zizi", it quickly spread from the scholar's palm to the body of the leader of the same tribe.

"Ahhh......hh

The thunder and lightning instantly shook the leader of the same tribe like chaff, and his body was filled with a huge burning sensation for a moment, and he felt that the water around his body was drained in an instant, and green smoke gradually rose from the top of his head.

In an instant, with a "coax", the body of the leader of the same tribe burned.

Cao Zhi gently let go of his hands, and a dagger fell to the ground with a "dang", and the burning body of the leader of the same tribe also fell to the ground with a bang.

Many Qiang warriors suddenly turned pale with fright, and looked at the white-robed scholar in front of them, as if they had seen a monster.

After a long time, a Qiang warrior trembled and said:

"This man...... This man knows sorcery! ”

"Run for your life! There are people in the Wei army who know witchcraft! ”

Soon another warrior shouted.

As soon as these words came out, it was like a shock, and the Qiang soldiers who were originally stunned suddenly retreated towards the outside of the city like grasshoppers that had been fried, where was there any mood to capture the city gate.

"This group of people is a fraud, arrest them all!"

Cao Zhi shouted loudly, and soon Wei troops rushed out from all over the city and headed towards the Qiang soldiers who entered the city.

The frightened Qiang soldiers rushed to the outside of the city, and at the head of the city, Chen Tai had already ordered the soldiers to shoot arrows, and some of the soldiers who had already entered the city, seeing that it was too late to squeeze out, scurried around in Longxi City like headless flies.

The Wei soldiers in the city were as easy as chopping melons and vegetables against the Qiang soldiers who did not have weapons in hand, and they quickly killed hundreds of people.

The west gate of Longxi City suddenly became a mess, shouting and crying together.

Jiang Wei led the army to ambush five miles outside the city, and when he heard the noise in Longxi City, he suddenly became suspicious.

"Has my deceit been discovered? Could it be that Chen Tai again? It seems that this Chen Tai is not easy to deal with! ”

Suddenly, a sentry horse reported that the Wei army in Longxi City was slaughtering the Qiang warriors of the same tribe who had surrendered.

Jiang Wei was shocked, and said in his heart:

"It's not good, it seems that the plan to surrender has really been discovered, for today's plan, there is only a hard attack!"

So he immediately ordered: "Ma Dai, you lead the cavalry of the Qiang tribe to attack the city gate and strive to capture the city gate!" ”

Ma Dai received the military order and immediately summoned the leaders of the Qiang tribes, killed them from the ambush, and went straight to Longxi City.

At this moment in Longxi City, there have been many warriors of the same tribe who have escaped, rushing for their lives in their own direction, Ma Dai is worried that too many routs will break up his formation, and then affect his own seizure of the city gate, so he shouted:

"The warriors of the same division retreat to both sides, and they must not rush into the front army, and those who dare to rush into the big formation will be killed!"

Ma Dai's order was shouted by the leaders of the various tribes and conveyed to the defeated troops of the same tribe, and the defeated soldiers hurriedly avoided both sides of the large array to make way for Ma Dai's army.

Seeing that the gate of Longxi City was in front of him, Ma Dai raised the long knife in his hand and shouted.

"Qiang warriors, the city gate of Longxi is in front of you, as long as you seize the city gate, you can take Longxi, warriors, charge with me!"

Ma Dai took the lead, rushing forward like an arrow, and he rushed forward with his horse, trying to seize the city gate.

Behind Ma Dai were tens of thousands of Qiang warriors, shouting loudly and rushing over.

Just when Ma Dai rushed to the city less than a hundred paces, the warriors of the same tribe under the city had been slaughtered, and the city gate was covered with corpses, and blood was spilled all over the ground.

Ma Dai clearly saw that in Longxi City, a scholar in a white robe was looking at him with a mocking expression, and then the city gate slowly closed.

Ma Dai was anxious and shouted:

"Kill!"

Desperately striking, the gap in the gate grew smaller and smaller, and at last he saw the white-robed scholar in the city throw a mocking smile at him.

"Boom!" With a bang, the gate of Longxi City was firmly closed.

Ma Dai hurriedly reined in the horse, knowing that it was no longer meaningful to rush to kill the past, so he ordered left and right to slowly retreat.

Arrows soon came from the top of the city, but fortunately Ma Dai reacted in time, and the cavalry withdrew from the range of the arrows.

Ma Dai reined in his mount and looked towards the city, only to see that the army of Longxi City was neat and tidy, hunting with flags, and the soldiers of the Wei army all showed proud looks, which showed that the morale was very high, so they had to retreat with hatred.

The successive attacks failed, and the soldiers were lost, which put the morale of the Qiang soldiers into a low point.

Jiang Wei had no choice but to comfort Ma Dai and the Qiang leaders and said:

"Leaders, Zhuge Kongming, the general's mentor, is so wise, but when he encounters Sima Yi's old puppet, he can't shrink back, and there is still no way, the siege battle is not easy, don't be too sad, victory and defeat are a common thing in soldiers!"

Seeing that the leaders of the Qiang tribe were still demoralized, Jiang Wei said:

"Chiefs, my army has not been wounded, but it has only experienced minor setbacks, so don't worry too much. The general promised that after the city was broken, the money and grain stored in this Longxi city would not be taken by our Han army! ”

As soon as Jiang Wei said this, the leaders suddenly ignited their fighting spirit again, and their eyes regained their brilliance!

"The attraction of real money is really high!"

Jiang Wei sighed secretly in his heart, and then said loudly:

"I'm afraid that this battle can't be outwitted, so I can only attack, the art of war is cloudy, and ten rules surround it. Now that you have openly raised troops, Cao Wei will definitely not tolerate you, and only by following this general to take this city will there be a chance to live. Please send someone to gather all the troops to gather under the city of Longxi, only by doing your best can you break the city! ”

Everyone felt that Jiang Wei was reasonable, and they all nodded in agreement.

Now there are 60,000 Qiang soldiers and nearly 10,000 Shu troops under the city of Longxi, as long as the leaders of each department gather their troops, they can easily reach 100,000 people.

The troops who came with follow-up reinforcements, even if they can't really participate in the battle, it's good to cheer on the periphery and wave their flags and shout!

Jiang Wei's proposal was quickly approved by all the tribal leaders, and everyone sent sentries back to gather their troops.

Jiang Wei looked at the tall Longxi City, smiled at Ma Dai and said:

"Let's give him a hundred thousand Qiang soldiers to surround Longxi, and see how he can resist Longxi City!"
