Chapter 20: Why did you quit?

Above the head of Chang'an City.

Zhao Changqing was calm and patiently waiting for Cao Shen's news.

To be honest, he couldn't stand the atmosphere anymore.

The smell of blood was pungent and thick, permeating the entire battlefield, full of corpses, bloody bones, stumps and broken arms, if it weren't for the experience of the two worlds and the precautions taken in advance when I came here, I am afraid that I would have vomited by now.

Rao was like this, and he also looked unusually uncomfortable, and his face was pale.

Half an hour later, Cao Shen arrived, and when he saw the prince who had been guarding the city without fear of being afraid of half a step back, he felt admiration in his heart.

"The Great Prince, according to your orders, everything is ready. ”

Is he not afraid of danger?

Isn't he going to take half a step back?

He had scared the endless enemy army into weakness.

In order to take care of his face and protect the dignity of the eldest prince, he had already let Zhao Zilong run away with him on his back.

"Very good, Cao Shen, after this battle, remember your first merit! Tell the soldiers, open the city gate, and then start!"

Zhao Changqing really couldn't stand the bloody breath around him, and his brain that was filled with this breath began to be confused, so much so that he forgot that he didn't seem to have told Cao Shen how to operate it.

Did you say that?

Alas.

The brain is a mess.

Why don't you say it again.

Zhao Changqing, who just wanted to tell Cao Shen how to do it, suddenly couldn't see him.

What about people?

Why is it gone in a blink of an eye?

Seeing that Zhao Changqing was puzzled, Zhao Zilong replied: "Your Highness, when you were thinking about the problem, General Cao had already retreated, he should have been afraid of disturbing you, so he didn't say anything." ”

Zhao Changqing nodded.

Thinking about the problem?

Well, I'm really thinking, but I'm thinking about whether I have explained the operation method to Cao Shen.

He asked Zhao Zilong, "Did I tell Cao Shen how to do this after collecting flammable substances?"

Zhao Zilong thought about it and shook his head, "No, right?"

"No, what is he running?"

Zhao Changqing looked around, desperate to find Cao Shen.

When he saw the city gate open, he felt that it was not a big problem, as long as the city gate was opened, so that the Chu army could enter the city, and then my father and the minister of civil and military affairs blamed me, and I blamed all the blame on Cao Shen.

I drank a lot of wine before, and it's time to return it.

As for those flammable substances, as long as they are still in Chang'an City, where are they burned?

Well, comfort.

Everything is proceeding in accordance with its own deployment.

I love the feeling of manipulating everything so much.

At the same time, inside the enemy's tent.

Xiang Nantian, the marshal of Chu State, saw that the gate of Chang'an City was actually wide open, and immediately showed doubts, opening the city gate for no reason, could it be a fraud?

"Order the three armies, stop the attack, rest in place, and respond to all changes without change!"

At the sound of the order, the herald immediately went to convey the commander's order.

Some generals were puzzled and asked why, "Marshal, Wei opened the city gate, and this is a good time for us to capture the capital in one fell swoop!"

Why do you want to order the soldiers not to attack, isn't it a waste of time to do so?"

Xiang Nantian glared at him and snorted: "Even you know this superficial truth, how can the enemy army not know? Why did they open the city gate? Just let me wait to throw myself into the net!"

Do you still think that this is the intention of the enemy to deliberately open the city gate and surrender on its own initiative? Would you believe it?

Don't forget that our enemy is the unfathomable prince of Wei, Zhao Changqing! This person knows the art of war very well, and he has risen from self-defilement for many years, and the opportunity he is waiting for is today!

Do you think he's going to make a mistake that no one else would make?

"What the marshal said is very true, but what are we going to do now?" someone frowned, thinking about how to deal with it.

Some people also said: "At present, it is the best policy to brake quietly, and the enemy army will open the city gate, and there must be a plan for the future, and when the time comes, to see the changes." ”

It's not that they didn't want to use a small force to move forward to explore the truth, but I'm afraid it won't help, unless there is a large-scale attack, a small-scale army attack is just a casualty lick, after all, the living force of the Wei State is still there.

At that time, he did not even touch the edge of the city gate, but he was afraid that he would have died under the random arrows.

Xiang Nantian said decisively: "Let's see, what kind of means he has!"

In this way, tens of thousands of troops all retreated, and only after a certain distance from the city gate did they sit around and rest.

Zhao Changqing, who was still standing on top of the city, was dumbfounded when he saw this scene.

What do you mean?

Your Highness has opened the gates of the city for you.

But you don't attack?

Still retreated?

Don't you know that this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity?

After entering the city, you have captured the capital!

If you don't attack, forget it.

I actually sat down to rest.

It's a war now, big brother.

Can you be serious?

Chen Qingzhi, who had arranged everything, although he had some doubts after receiving the order of the eldest prince to open the city gate, did not confide on the spot, but opened the city gate himself according to his instructions.

What he thought in his heart was that if there was any loss, he could shoulder the blame, so that the eldest prince would not be implicated.

However, the movement of the enemy army after opening the city gate made him dumbfounded.

The enemy retreated and stopped the attack.

After thinking about it for a long time, he figured out the key here, and sighed at the eldest prince's plan that everyone couldn't guess, "I once heard the eldest prince tell a story about an empty city plan, and he will use people's hearts to the extreme, so that the enemy can flee without a fight.

The eldest prince is really like a god, and it is impossible to prevent and guess, so it's time to take the next step. ”

He ordered the three armies to line up all the trebuchets and throw them into a very large coarse cloth, the surface of which was covered with sesame oil, and on which there were all kinds of flammable substances.

Subsequently, the soldiers covered the city with a large chunk of coarse cloth.

Eventually, launched.

In an instant, the oversized coarse cloth crossed the city like a dark cloud, and headed straight for the enemy.

The four corners of this overwhelming coarse cloth were bound together by boulders.

All the guards were dumbfounded.

Zhao Changqing was also dumbfounded.

the groove.

What the hell is this coarse cloth curtain that covers the sky and the sun?

Where did it come from?

On the side of the Chu army, almost all of them were already confused.

Watch as the cloth slowly falls to your camp.

They were all a little confused.

Wei Guo, what is this trying to do?

Afraid that it will be cold when we rest, so we specially sent cloth to keep us warm?

In the big tent of the Chu army, Xiang Nantian and others were also dumbfounded.

What kind of operation is this?

Immediately afterwards, one by one, the coarse cloth flew over the head of Chang'an City and shot at the enemy.

Each obscures the sky and the sun.

I can't count how many.

When they landed in the enemy's camp and were shrouded in a huge coarse cloth, most of them seemed a little panicked, and hurriedly tore the coarse cloth with their blades.

Subsequently, they smelled a particularly unpleasant smell.

This smells like oil?

Xiang Nantian used the feedback picture of the heavenly eye opened by the people in the Dao Gate, looked at the scene in front of him, and gradually became distracted.

Then yell that it's not good.

But it was too late.

In the sky, tens of thousands of rockets started from the end of Chang'an City with the majestic momentum of destroying the withering and decaying, and all of them fell into the enemy camp.

The sesame oil infected by the coarse cloth and the flammable substances placed on it were all in full play at this moment.

In an instant, the camp of tens of thousands of enemy troops turned into a sea of fire.

Zhao Changqing looked at the majestic scene in front of him intently, and was already shocked and speechless.

What the hell is this?

Isn't this a hanging?

Who did this to you?

The enemy is still stupidly watching, won't they run?

it!

What a mediocrity of labor and management!

gone?

Even a fool can guess when he sees this situation.

Almost all the tens of thousands of enemy troops who came to attack the city were already in flames, so as for the siege, it was already a fool's dream.

Zhao Changqing couldn't understand it, everything was fine, and he was planning according to his own deployment, why did this problem happen?

Who came up with this solution to lack morality?

Aren't you afraid of a short life?

It's too illogical or even intolerable, right?

Isn't this deliberately tricking me?

After about a cup of tea, Chen Qingzhi and Cao Shen came to Zhao Changqing's side, knelt down on one knee and said in unison: "Tell Your Highness, we have followed Your Highness's idea to trap the enemy in the sea of corpses and fire." ”

It was only at this moment that they suddenly realized that they had completely understood the deep meaning of His Royal Highness the Great Prince.

First the city gates were opened to paralyze the enemy army, and then, they were killed by fire.

Just talking about this kind of strategy, throughout the ages, how many people can be compared with the eldest prince?

The eldest prince is really too wise and unpredictable, every step of the way, and every step of the way leads the enemy's nose, this is simply a strategic crush!

But Zhao Changqing has a deep meaning of fart!

This script is not what I thought!

"What do you two say? What does His Highness think? warn you, you can eat indiscriminately, but don't talk nonsense!"

Zhao Changqing now wants to cry, and his intuition tells him that the problem is Chen Qingzhi and Cao Shen.

Chen Qingzhi and Cao Shen looked at each other, and then the former spoke: "Didn't Your Highness let us collect things that are easy to burn?" The subordinates guessed that you were going to attack the other party with a fire meter, and after throwing these flammable things into the enemy camp, they set them on fire with rockets, could it be that the subordinates guessed wrong?"

The corners of Zhao Changqing's mouth twitched.

Sure enough, the problem is you.

Fuck, it's all my fault.

Blame me for being intimidated by the enemy's onslaught.

I didn't explain it to you.

But don't you ask?

What are you thinking about?

That's good, but it's gone.

If it goes on like this, when will you be able to rely on the system to ascend the throne and become the emperor!

Things have developed so far that it is useless to say anything.

What's more, what else can His Highness say?

Could it be that I made it clear that I originally intended to set fire to Chang'an City, and that opening the city gate was just to allow the enemy to occupy the outer city more quickly?

You can't say that!

So, Zhao Changqing followed Chen Qingzhi's rhetoric and gritted his teeth and said:

"yes! That's what I thought. Set fire to them!"

Damn, that's what the hell thinks.

Chen Qingzhi and Cao Shen glanced at each other again, and they both thought in their hearts:

Sure enough, the guess was right. And the eldest prince asked like that just now, to test whether we have learned the true meaning from this battle, right? The eldest prince is really becoming more and more unfathomable. ”

Zhao Changqing...

Forget it, don't mention him, let him cry for a while.

It was about the time when the fire was getting smaller, and more than half of the enemy was killed or wounded.

A scout came to report that the Chu army had gradually withdrawn.

This moment.

Zhao Changqing was cold.

No, the expression is wrong, it's cold.

From above the city, he looked at the sea of fire in the distance, and muttered to himself:

"That's it? Then we're going to attack the city! Aren't you called an army of 800,000? How many dead and wounded are there? Keep fighting! Run a ball!"

Why did you quit?

How can I get it back?

Don't you want Chang'an City?

However, after his words were heard by the soldiers around him, they each gave him a thumbs up, and the one they admired was called a five-body throw.

"It's worthy of the great prince!

They secretly thought in their hearts that it was the eldest prince who was confident and not afraid of the enemy, so they said that.
