There is only one horse to fight, how to fight?

No matter how anxious the Zhou army is to get results, he will not be angry with a horse.

It stands to reason that you should take advantage of the opening of the Bishui Pass to attack it, even if you take a risk, it is a rare opportunity to attack the city, what if it succeeds?

But everyone thought that there was a large army behind the horse, not that they did not take risks, but they did not react.

In such a moment's hesitation, the drawbridge was pulled back, and the door was closed again, as if it was about to die if it was opened for a while.

The horse outside the pass saw that no one paid attention to it, so he ran away with his hooves, leaving the Zhou army in a dilemma.

What should we do now?

Continue to call the war?

Lei Zhenzi's voice was hoarse, so he called out a horse.

Storm?

Difficult.

Lei Zhenzi is tied, it is still a problem to be able to play a few percent, and it has been more than a year since the king declared war on all countries, and as the first barrier between Shang and Zhou, the guards must have already stockpiled a large number of fire oil, rolling wood, falling rocks and other sharp weapons to defend the city, and the strong attack will definitely suffer.

Even Lei Zhenzi may not be able to please a large amount of oil, and maybe there are artillery pieces obtained from the ancient city of Kunlun.

Thinking of artillery, Nangong Shi couldn't help but tremble.

It was a magic weapon used by Chiyou in ancient times to fight with the Yellow Emperor, and it was very powerful, even Nezha also suffered a loss under this artillery and was captured.

Others don't know how strong Nezha is, but he knows very well that not only is his martial arts strong, but he also has many magic weapons, and Lei Zhenzi is probably not an opponent.

Although he didn't invest in the study of artillery, he just regarded a large number of artillery pieces as a rarity to open the way with his might, which was almost as useful as those guards who were five big and three thick.

But who knows?

Xu Xu had already carried out research in secret, but in order to avoid people's eyes, he did not publicize it too much.

Thinking of this, Nangong Shi couldn't help but be a little cautious, the guards of Bishui Pass will send a horse to meet the battle, and the ridicule is extreme, is it just to force them to forcibly attack the problem?

Most likely.

Nangong immediately ordered that the army retreat ten miles, as for whether it will damage morale, it doesn't matter, now it was a feint, with 40,000 soldiers and horses in hand, it seems that the momentum is huge and the smoke and dust are all swept out by thousands of people running with wicker, and it is impossible for this person to officially attack the problem.

The real attack has to be discovered by the soldiers and horses that Ji Shuqian feinted all the way to be discovered by the Jiameng guards, so that the Jiameng guards can contact the Bishui guards before they can start the general attack.

Now that the trap has already been laid, from inviting the battle to the wicker sweeping away the smoke and dust, to giving up the strong attack and retreating ten miles to camp, it is actually Nangong Shi's strategy.

Nangong Shi had investigated Dou Rong, the general of Bishui Customs, Dou Rong had a poor reputation, he was a cautious person, and a general with this character guarded the pass very safely.

It seems that Bishui Pass is more difficult to overcome than Jiameng Pass, but in fact, such an extreme character has weaknesses while guarding the pass more securely, if you can plan a thing or two for its weaknesses, Bishui Pass is just a piece of thin paper.

Unfortunately, what Nangong Shi is good at is precisely designed for the character weaknesses of others.

The invitation to fight and the smoke and dust at the beginning were all for the sake of bluffing.

But this bluff was not to make Dou Rong mistakenly think that the Zhou army would lead a big attack and suppress the morale of the guards in the pass, but to create a false impression of bluffing.

In other words, it was deliberately asked to let Dou Rong and other guards of Bishui Pass see that Zhou Jun was bluffing.

Therefore, Nangong Shi retreated ten miles back and camped, and deliberately left wicker scratches outside the gate that were "not finished".

After finding out this, Dou Rong must think that there were not many soldiers and horses coming to attack the Zhou army.

Even Nangong Shi also took advantage of the Gufeng beacon tower that could not be captured, although he did not know the communication instructions of the merchant army, but he knew that the merchant army stationed in the beacon tower must have a way to inform the approximate number of the Zhou army to Bishui Pass.

Therefore, Dou Rong must know that the actual number of Zhou Jun is not large, and everything he does is just a bluff.

When Uncle Ji came out of the stone pavilion and was discovered by the guards of Jiameng Pass, he transmitted the news to Bishui Pass, and everything was ready.

At that time, Dou Rong will think that it seems that the Zhou army is attacking in two ways, but in fact, this road of soldiers and horses in Bishui Pass is just a bluff feint, and the real target of the attack is Jiameng Pass.

In this way, he fell for Nangong Shi's strategy.

Seeing the crisis of Jiamengguan, it was a feint attack on his side, and no matter how cautious Dou Rong was, he had to send troops to support Jiamengguan.

Nangong Shi couldn't help but feel a little proud, what about prudence?

I'm one level higher than you, if you're a reckless man, you won't go to clean up the battlefield to listen to intelligence and set up a beacon, and you won't fall for the trick, and even lead the army to cover up and kill when you invite the battle, maybe you can win the last battle!

Nangong Shi was already sitting on the Diaoyutai platform, and when Dou Rong sent troops to support Jiameng Pass, Ji Shuqian, who attacked Jiameng Pass, had already transferred troops to Bishui Pass in batches.

..........

As Nangong expected, after the Zhou army retreated and set up camp, Dou Rong immediately sent spies, hoping to get some useful information from the traces left by the Zhou army.

Don't fight unprepared battles, this is Dou Rong's belief, and the more information at hand, the better.

Soon, the spies brought back the news.

The spy arched his hand and reported to Dou Rong: "General, the Zhou army must be just bluffing, back then Wen Taishi tied the wicker to the horsetail to create smoke and dust, scaring off the earthwork, although the Zhou army was very witty to take away the wicker, but the willow branch scratches on the flat ground outside the pass are not easy to deal with thoroughly, the last general found several places that were not completely cleaned, this must be the Zhou army imitated Wen Taishi's bluff plan back then, wanting to paralyze our army and hit the morale of the generals in the pass. ”

The spy was very proud of his words, there were not many professional and careful spies like him.

Oh, the life of the spy is good, since the king set up the war situation, the spy has become important, with his own talent, work hard for a while, maybe he can enter the war and become an official, no longer have to be in danger, exchange his life for intelligence, Meizizizi.

"Hmm. Dou Rong did not rush to make a judgment and motioned for the spy to continue.

"There was also a beacon fire from the beacon tower just now, and the beacon fire was three long and two short, indicating that the enemy's strength was between three and fifty thousand, so how could he tackle the problem with such a small number of people?"

"The last general thinks about it, this is just a feint, didn't we still receive the enemy situation of Jiameng Pass half a day ago? The Zhou army is not attacking from two directions, but mainly attacking Jiameng Pass, feint to attack Bishui Pass!"

The more the spy spoke, the more excited he became: "Bishui Pass and Jiameng Pass are each other's horns, if one side is attacked, the other side will definitely support, forming a two-way outflanking, cutting off the back road, so it has been solid for hundreds of years, and the enemy must have taken this time into consideration to set up such a cracking plan, to feint and drag our army, so that we can't support Jiameng Pass!"

"Please also ask the general to send troops to support Jiameng Pass!"

Dou Rong thought for a while and said, "Don't go." ”
