After listening to Pan Zhang, Chen Wu and others, they also agreed with Ling Cao's statement. Lu Meng just listened quietly and did not express his position. Seeing that everyone was looking at him, a fine light flashed in Lu Meng's eyes, and he said firmly: "The art of war will be lost if it is defended for a long time, Liu Xun's army is overwhelmed, and the soldiers and horses are more than three times that of our army." If Liu Xun chooses to attack us with all his might, regardless of casualties, we will not be able to wait for the lord's reinforcements at all, and we will be the first to lose. Moreover, Liu Xun is extremely brutal, so he naturally does not care about the casualties of his soldiers. ”

Lu Meng actually made a lot of sense when he said this. Because they don't know the direction of history, they naturally don't know the sense of urgency in Liu Xun's heart.

And this Liu Xun is not Liu Xun, this is the asymmetry of information. Liu Xun also attaches great importance to the casualties of his own soldiers, not that Lu Meng thinks that he will ignore the casualties, after all, he has not been cold-blooded to that extent since he came from the next generation. This important place was mistaken by Lu Meng, who thought he was smart. Then the decision he made accordingly must be wrong.

Chen Wu said with a straight face on the side: "What the Governor said is reasonable, if Liu Xun would cherish the soldiers, he would not have come to attack us in such a hurry." didn't even give the soldiers time to rest, and it can be seen that Liu Xun is like a stone, and he doesn't care about the life or death of the soldiers at all. ”

Lu Meng nodded and continued: "Now their army is running all the way, and they are extremely tired. Why don't we take advantage of the fact that they have just arrived and have not yet gained a foothold and led the army out of the city to steal the camp, so that there may still be some chance of victory, and if they stay in the city, they will die sooner or later. ”

The generals felt that Lu Meng's analysis was much more reasonable than Ling Cao's. And as soldiers, there are several people who want to be beaten passively in the city and not fight back. At that moment, Chen Wu, Pan Zhang and others responded: "Everything is under the orders of the governor." ”

But when Lü Meng had just made the decision to prepare to attack the camp, he heard a report from the spies: "Dudu, something is wrong, the thief army has begun to attack the city." ”

After hearing this, Lu Meng couldn't help laughing: "Okay, Liu Xun, now that the army is not stable, you actually dare to lead a tired army to attack the city, and really treat human life as a thug with grass suke." Let's go up to the city wall and see how they attack the city. ”

Liu Xun's three-plate axe has been used up, and now he is also poor in donkey skills. In his irritation, he suddenly changed his strategy, and he was so eager to attack the city just to explore the reality and see how the garrison of the city was, so that he knew it in his heart.

However, Lü Meng's defenders were not given in vain, and under Lü Meng's calm and calm command, they repelled Liu Xun's tentative attack in just three or two strokes.

Liu Xun looked up and saw that it was getting late, and knew that it would only increase casualties if he attacked it.

"Retreat", with Liu Xun's order, the Lujiang soldiers retreated like a tide.

Looking at the embarrassed retreating Lujiang soldiers, Pan Zhang at the head of the city couldn't help but laugh proudly: "According to the observation just now, this Lujiang soldier has no rules to attack the city, and it is simply a world different from us. ”

Chen Wu frowned and said in a deep voice: "General Pan must not be careless, this may be Liu Xun's trick of the dog thief. We must not be careless, otherwise we may follow the old path of General Taishi. ”

Lu Meng nodded in agreement: "What General Chen said is reasonable, Liu Xun can defeat tens of thousands of troops of the ancestors, and easily conquer Yuzhang County, if he is at this level, it is absolutely impossible, we can't underestimate the enemy." ”

As Lu Meng's words fell, everyone suddenly felt a chill in their backs and responded: "If"

Ling Cao asked aloud, "Dudu, are we going as planned now?" ”

Lu Meng raised his eyes and looked at the Lujiang camp in the distance, Liu Xun's unexpected attack on the city made Lu Meng at this moment unable to see through Liu Xun's plan. After thinking about it for a long time, I still chose to wait and see what happened. "Tonight's plan is cancelled for now. ”

Although everyone was puzzled, they still clenched their fists.

。。。。。。

Liu Xun camp

Liu Xun didn't know that his indiscriminate operation actually inadvertently frightened Lu Meng, who was about to steal the camp.

At this moment, Liu Xun was discussing the siege of the city with Gan Ning, who still had a little military knowledge.

"Lord, now the number of our army is three times that of the Jiangdong Army, and we will definitely be able to take Moling under a strong attack," Gan Ning said very confidently

"So I don't know how many casualties there are?"

"The last general is willing to receive a military order, and only five thousand casualties will be needed to break through this city."

"There are only three thousand people in the city, and it is not appropriate to pay such a price to take this city. I don't know if Xingba has other plans. Liu Xun said with a somewhat ugly face

"My lord, if you don't choose to attack, then relying on the strong strength of our army can implement the strategy of exhausting the army. It's just that it will take more time to break the city. ”

"Xingba, let's talk about it, how to implement the strategy of exhausting the soldiers?" Liu Xun looked at Gan Ning very seriously and asked

Gan Ning glanced at his lord in surprise, it stands to reason that the lord is so wise and martial, how can he not understand such a simple strategy. Then Gan Ning was excited, and suddenly thought of a possibility: "The lord is taking the school for me." ”

As soon as he thought of this, Gan Ning immediately said seriously: "The so-called strategy of exhausting the troops is to use the superior strength of our army to divide the troops to attack in turns without stopping, so that we can take turns to rest, and the enemy has few soldiers, and we do not stop attacking, they naturally dare not rest, and the body will naturally be unbearable for a long time." When the time comes, we can take advantage of the opportunity to take them down in one fell swoop. ”

Liu Xun nodded noncommittally: "Well, what Xingba said is a safe policy." Now there is no other way to attack the city, so let's do what Xingba said first. ”

"If," Gan Ning replied with a fist

。。。。。。

That night, the Lujiang soldiers retreated and began to attack the city again only an hour. Because it was night, Liu Xun naturally reduced the intensity of the siege, and asked the soldiers of each battalion to take turns to attack the city, bluffing and shouting, the real purpose was to contain and harass the defenders at the head of the city, so that they were tired of coping and did not dare to sleep steadily.

The men and horses who were replaced hurried back to the camp to take a nap, and waited until dawn before attacking. After all, this kind of offensive and defensive war is not easy to fight, and if it continues like this, it is easy for the soldiers of this side to bear it. Liu Xun originally thought that he would be able to take advantage of the fact that he would be able to take advantage of the fact that he would be able to take advantage of the fact that there were more people and fewer people to bully the few people.

But Lu Meng in the city was not given in vain, and as soon as Liu Xun made this move, he quickly understood Liu Xun's intentions. Lu Meng smiled disdainfully: "It's really hard to be on the stage with such a small skill of carving insects, since you have a good plan, I have my own wall ladder." ”

At that moment, Lu Meng recruited Ling Cao, Pan Zhang, Chen Wu and other generals: "Everyone, Liu Xun's move is a strategy for the tired army. Naturally, we must also divide our troops to guard it, otherwise the soldiers will not be able to bear it. ”

Ling Cao sighed and asked, "Dudu, having said that, we have few soldiers, if we really take turns to go down to rest, what if the Lujiang soldiers outside the city suddenly take the opportunity to attack in a big way?" ”
