CHAPTER XLIV

"Brother, don't get excited, pay attention to saliva!" Liu Qi looked disgusted and jumped away.

"Hahaha, come on, hurry! Another good news!"

"When I came here this time, my brother thought, will the army be chaotic if there is no food?

"The size of the grain team that my brother said must be the main force of the Yue Army, but this Moon Army is far away on the Western Front and confronts King Chen, and there is Duan Hu in Xixian County in the middle, my brother wants to make this contribution, but he has no choice but to whip it up!" General Li looked sorry and shook his bald head.

"No, brother! The main force of the Western Front transporting grain, how could it pass by the Montenegro County Government?" Although Liu Qi's systematic map was not lit up in many places, the map distributed by the army was still seen, and it was clear from the southeast, northwest, and northwest.

"What?," General Li fell into deep thought, and slapped his thigh for a while.

"It's not good, it's another plan for the golden cicada to get out of its shell!

"Pass my general's order! The whole army will retreat to the pass! Leave 5,000 men to guard the pass, and the rest of the soldiers will go with me on the march!" General Li immediately decided.

Liu Qi is now also a regular army, with 2,700 new soldiers, 3,000 vanguard troops, and 300 warriors each as generals.

In the east of Xixian County, 100 miles, the East Route Army encountered the people who escaped from Xixian County, and when they asked, Xixian County really fell, Liu Qi suggested that General Li camp in situ and lead 300 warriors to investigate first.

Zhu Han did not enter the city with the whole army, and only sent 10,000 soldiers to garrison in Xixian County, and 100,000 troops camped in the west of the city, serving as horns for each other. Liu Qi observed for a long time, there was really no opportunity to take advantage of it, such a large-scale earth bomb had little effect, not to mention that Liu Qi didn't want to expose too many secrets. When he returned to the camp to report what he saw, General Li did not have a good plan, and it was indeed unrealistic to fight 30,000 to 100,000. It is imperative to report to King Chen that the main force moves eastward.

Xingguo crusaded against the army commander's account, Chen Wang received the military report, his eyes seemed to be about to erupt fire, Zhu Lao Pifu! The deception is too great! There are only 40,000 or 50,000 people in the Yue army camp opposite, and the old thief slipped out from under his nose and laid down Xixian County, but he didn't know it, if it wasn't for the pioneer warrior camp robbing the grain road... The consequences are unimaginable.

This Liu Qi is really a character, a young captain, oh no, this time he has made great contributions to the grain road, at least one miscellaneous general is a must, killing tens of thousands of enemies, the military department then audits the military merits, and the knighted county man is also a certainty, a genius, it must be used by me.

Knock knock, gather the account will rise. "The three armies obey the order! Attack the Moon Army Marshal Camp!" King Chen ordered angrily!

Although the generals didn't know why, they also came out one after another.

After several rounds of stone-throwing attacks, the front camp of the Moon Army was broken, 200,000 Xingguo soldiers rushed into the camp, strangled more than 1,000 people, and the rest of the Moon Army fled north in an orderly manner.

Leaving 50,000 soldiers and horses to garrison, King Chen decisively led his troops to the east, bound to recapture Xixian.

The escaped Yue army found Zhu Han and joined forces in one place, to be honest, although there is still a huge disparity in strength, Zhu Han is not at all false to rejuvenate the king of Chen, a junior who has suppressed bandits several times, it is good to come, look at the handsome slowly drawing.

As Zhu Han expected, King Chen's army was killed, and he did not dare to attack rashly, and camped more than 20 miles away. King Chen's advisers have seen the situation, and they are afraid that the Moon Army camp will send troops in the city and attack the county seat, so they can't bypass the camp at all, and it is really an old fox.

General Li took Liu Qi to meet King Chen, as soon as he entered the tent, General Li bowed his head, Liu Qi was caught off guard, just clasped his fists and saluted, in fact, there are few kneeling in the army, but King Chen is not only a marshal or a prince, seeing that the king has to kneel, Liu Qi doesn't know the rules anyway, so he simply pretends to be crazy and stupid, standing still.

For Liu Qi's rude behavior of seeing that the king did not kneel, King Chen was also stunned, and then remembered that Liu Qi, a peasant boy, did not understand etiquette, and he had some trouble with himself, so he didn't blame him, pretended not to see, waved his hand and sat without courtesy.......

"Can you open the east gate?" Wang Chen was surprised.

"Lord Wang, you can open it!"

"Okay, good, if you make this contribution, this king will personally show you the merit!" King Chen stared at Liu Qi for a long time, and then laughed. A plan to capture the city is freshly baked.

At three o'clock, the darkest hour before dawn, at the water gate of the moat of Xixian County, the two soldiers held their spears and leaned against the wet city wall. While stomping his feet, he cursed in a low voice in the Moon Country dialect, glancing at the iron fence from time to time. In addition to them, there were eight other people guarding the water gate. But it was too cold at night for anyone to stay near the water, so they were the only ones watching the bar, while the others hid inside to make a fire.

The Water Gate can lead directly outside the city, if an enemy is coming. Watergate is an option, but it's definitely not a good choice. First, the water gate has two sides, inside and outside, and there are arm-thick iron fences separated by it, and it is impossible to lift it up with human strength alone, and of course it is impossible to get in. Second, the water is cold in late autumn, and soaking in the water for a while will make your hands and feet numb. Diving into the water is even more impossible. It is precisely because of this that the guards of the water gate in the inner city seem to be strict, but in fact they are lax.

One of the soldiers looked up at the place where his companion was roasting the fire. He glanced at his companion who had long been asleep in the corner, cursed secretly, sniffed, and wiped the frozen snot with the corner of his sleeve. Close your eyes and fake sleep.

He had just closed his eyes for a moment when he suddenly felt a numb in his neck. He reached out and touched it. As soon as the hand was halfway raised, it fell weakly, and the neck also drooped down, shaking it lightly a few times, as if dozing off.
