Ling Yun's plan was simple and crude. He wanted to fake the truth to see if he could deceive the Xixia reinforcements and teach them a painful lesson.
No one had any objections, and the plan was implemented.
Prior to this plan, the plan to exchange benefits from Li Renxiao was suspended, and plans would be made after the Xixia reinforcements were dealt with.
In two days, Lanzhou City was completely controlled by the Pingnan Army.
All that was left was to wait quietly for the Xixia reinforcements to arrive.
Two days later, the scouts discovered the Xixia reinforcements.
At the gate of the city, the Tao of Xixia was hung high, and even the flag of Li Renxiao was hung on it.
The armor of the soldiers guarding the city was also replaced by Xixia armor, and the generals guarding the city were Xixia generals who had already persuaded them to surrender.
Everything is ready, it just depends on whether the Xixia reinforcements are fooled.
The Xixia reinforcements were very smart and sent the vanguard troops forward to check the situation in Lanzhou City, while the large troops also stopped at the rear and waited.
"Who is on the city?" A voice came from below the city. The speaker was Wang Zishuo, the leader of the Xixia reinforcements' vanguard army. At this moment, he was raising his head and looking at the defenders at the gate of the city with burning eyes.
Wang Zishuo's eyes as bright as a torch quickly scanned the area above, not missing any visible corner. He appeared to be very cautious, as if everything was under his scrutiny.
"Is there General Wang Zishuo below the city?" Under Wang Zishuo's scan, someone at the gate of the city finally spoke, and as soon as he spoke, Wang Zishuo's name was mentioned, which shocked Wang Zishuo instantly.
"Who are you?" Wang Zishuo turned his head, and his eyes immediately turned to the person who responded at the gate of the city. At the same time, a sharp light flashed in his eyes, constantly scanning the person who spoke, wanting to know the identity of this person.
"General Wang, don't panic, I'm Li Guoqing." The person who just spoke at Chengguan Gate spoke again.
"Li Guoqing?" Wang Zishuo frowned, searching for information about this person in his mind. Unfortunately, he thought about it over and over again, and even though he racked his brains, he still couldn't find any information about this person.
"General Wang may not recognize me, but I am Qinzhou City Guard General Li Guoqing."
While Wang Zishuo was silent and thinking, Li Guoqing's voice floated down again.
Even though Li Guoqing explained it like this, Wang Zishuo still had no impression of him at all.
"Master Li, what's the current situation in Lanzhou City?" Wang Zishuo scanned him with sharp eyes like a hawk. While asking about the situation in Lanzhou City, he was also observing Li Guoqing's reaction.
I want to get some useful information from Li Guoqing's reaction.
It's a pity that Li Guoqing was in a very calm mood, so he couldn't see any clues for a while.
"General Wang, although Lanzhou City was defended, the price our army paid this time was too high. The third prince was injured, General Li Shiqi died in battle, and He Chaofeng... was seriously injured."
"The gangsters are cruel, attacking my city and killing my brothers... I hope General Wang and all the reinforcement brothers will quickly enter the city to help us avenge our dead brothers." Li Guoqing answered with a voice full of pathos, mixed with anger, and even
It contains a determination to die together with the army.
When Wang Zishuo heard that Li Shiqi had been killed in battle, he was shocked. When he heard that the third prince was still alive, he suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.
"The third prince is not dead, fortunately..." Wang Zishuo breathed a long sigh of relief and murmured to himself in a voice that he could hear.
"Wang Xiaojun, please take a few people into the city to take a look." Wang Zishuo calmed down his emotions, then looked at the people next to him and said.
"Be alert!" Wang Zishuo never forgot to warn.
"General, I obey!" Wang Xiaojun accepted the order, then shouted several times to the team, leading a few people towards the city gate.
Wang Xiaojun came to the city gate with vigilance, and the soldiers on the city began to shout welcoming slogans.
"General Wang, you are finally here, we are finally saved..." Li Guoqing said with some tears.
This look makes me shed tears.
"Reinforcements have arrived, we are saved!"
"We're saved~" The city cheered, and the joyful voice resounded throughout the city gates, and Wang Zishuo could hear it clearly not far away.
"It seems there is no problem." Wang Zishuo scanned the soldiers at the city gate again. He observed the emotions of each soldier and found that the cheerful laughter did not want to be performed.
At this time, Wang Xiaojun turned around and looked at him, only to see Wang Xiaojun's hand pointing towards the city gate. Wang Zishuo nodded to him, and then saw Wang Xiaojun nod, and then led the team into the city gate.
"The reinforcements are here, come in quickly..." As soon as Wang Xiaojun and his party entered the city gate, they were warmly welcomed by the defenders. Those defenders either grabbed their hands or hugged them... The scene was so harmonious that Wang Xiaojun gradually let go
Got wary.
Wang Zishuo waited outside the city but did not see Wang Xiaojun. Just when he thought something was wrong, Wang Xiaojun appeared at the city gate with a smile on his face.
"General, the city is safe and no problems have been found." Wang Xiaojun seemed very happy, grinning as he spoke.
Maybe it was because when he entered the city just now, the compliments given to him by the soldiers guarding the city made him feel very benefited.
"Yeah!" Upon hearing this, Wang Zishuo also dispelled his suspicion.
After confirming that there was no problem, the news was sent to the Chinese Army.
Li Yuanwei, the commander-in-chief of the Xixia reinforcements, received the news and immediately ordered the troops to advance and prepare to enter Lanzhou City.
Wang Zishuo led five thousand people and quickly entered the city.
The warm welcome bombarded his eardrums, making him unable to help but raise the corners of his mouth.
An army of more than 50,000 people was approaching outside the city.
Eighty feet.
Seventy feet.
…
Forty feet.
"Close the door and beat the dog!" Ling Yun's lips moved slightly.
"Fire the arrow."
"kill!"
Suddenly, there was an explosion from the city gate, and as the explosion was heard, tens of thousands of sharp arrows shot through the air.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh.
"Ah~"
"What is happening and why is this happening?"
"No, there's an ambush. There's an ambush on the city..."
"Lanzhou City has been occupied, and everyone there is an enemy. Damn Wang Zishuo..."
Inside the city, when Wang Zishuo discovered something unusual, the city gate had been closed unknowingly, and only crossbow arrows were waiting for them.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh.
Countless crossbow arrows fell, and Xixia soldiers suffered numerous casualties.
"General, be careful, there is a scam in the city!" Wang Xiaojun rushed to Wang Zishuo's side and blocked him with his body.
"Defense, everyone, defend!" Wang Zishuo pulled out the sword from his waist and wanted to take the opportunity to reverse the situation, but how could he reverse the situation when he was unprepared and unprepared.
In the span of one stick of incense, five thousand people were killed or injured.
"It's over, everything is over." Wang Zishuo looked at the piles of corpses around him, despair appearing on his face.
"Commander Ling has an order, surrender and you will live!"
"Surrender and you will live!" With roars one after another, the Xixia soldiers threw away their weapons and chose to surrender.
At this moment, Wang Zishuo seemed to have lost his soul. He did not react at all until he was arrested. He only muttered that it was over...
Outside the city, Li Yuanwei was not harmed, but the army suffered heavy losses.
"Retreat!" Li Yuanwei decisively ordered the withdrawal. If he did not choose to retreat, casualties would only continue to increase.
"Wang Zishuo, damn it!"
"General, Wang Zishuo passed on false information, and the last general suggested that he be cut into pieces..."
