After some thought, Wang Zichao realized that now he had to make a dangerous move, so he immediately clasped his fists and said:
"Sir, since you said so, I will just obey your orders! I just don't know how many men and horses I will be given in this sheep attack."
Li Ran pondered for a moment:
"Your Highness can order three thousand troops to attack the city... Chang Qing, you can order three thousand troops and horses for His Highness. In addition, Chu Dang, as your chariot guard, must protect His Highness. You must not be reckless!"
Although Li Ran didn't say it explicitly, he winked at Sun Wu. Sun Wu was convinced and immediately went out to count 3,000 reserve soldiers.
The reason why he was assigned 3,000 untrained reserve troops was not deliberately to make things difficult, but it was the only way to make the performance realistic enough in the end.
So, Prince Chao held the hilt of the sword at his waist with one hand, exited the military camp, and said:
"Ganyi's men and horses may kill them at any time, so we can't delay any longer. I'll go to attack them now!"
Li Ran also gave the prince some instructions, telling him to act according to the situation. When he was defeated, he must act realistically and make Gong Jian feel itchy.
When Wang Zichao led his troops away, he sent Sun Wu to lead 5,000 troops to ambush on the road where Wang Zichao must pass to defeat.
Li Ran then sent Fan Li to lead an elite division of 4,000 to suppress the formation. Most of these 4,000 were the same group of people who followed Li Ran to besiege Zheng Yi. Now, under Sun Wu's training, they can all be called brave and skilled veterans.
.
Sun Wu and Fan Li also followed the order and left. Guan Cong remained silent on one side, but now he said:
"The young master uses his troops like a god, which is really admirable."
Judging from these remarks, it is not necessarily all flattery. What he is good at is making small conspiracies or letting the commander make a decision. This kind of large-scale commanding of troops on the battlefield is definitely not something he can do.
arrive.
"You don't have to be modest. When it comes to ruthless methods, I'm going to work even faster, but I'm afraid I won't be able to catch up!"
Watch and smile.
"Thank you for the compliment, young master. Young master, the best way to attack the city is to use water to attack the city. There is no big river in this capital, so water attack is impossible, but fire attack can be used. Guan Cong has already found out that Gong Jian does not understand the method of defending the city.
, no fire prevention measures were taken in the city, and the wind direction today is also favorable to our troops, so we only need a few hundred strong bows, and a burst of fire will enter the city. If there is a fire in the city, there will be chaos, and then the next thing will be easier to handle.
!”
Although Li Ran was reminded by Guan Cong, he still hesitated:
"Although this method is excellent, after all, it is blind and merciless. It will inevitably affect the people in the city. At that time, it will only bring criticism to His Highness."
Guan Cong saw Li Ran looking forward and backward, but he didn't take it seriously:
"Young Master is kind, but this is by no means a military strategy to win. If we fail to win this battle, the morale of our army will be greatly reduced. If things fail, we will all become rebellious officials and traitors. Who will show sympathy to Young Master at that time?
Woolen cloth"
Li Ran heard this and knew that it was reasonable. He had no choice but to immediately order five hundred strong archers to tie cloth strips on the arrowheads and light them before shooting. When the time came, under the cover of Sun Wu, he stepped into the shooting range and shot arrows towards the city.
…
Wang Zichao stood on the chariot and led the three thousand people to attack the city. Gong Jian was not in a hurry. All he could do now was to hang up his battle-free sign and wait for the troops led by Gan Loach to arrive. When the time came, Wang Zichao
How can these 20,000 mobs be their opponents?
Therefore, despite letting Wang Zichao scream for a while, he still remained silent. Seeing this situation, Wang Zichao took a deep breath.
"Advance the chariot another two hundred steps!"
The prince is now about 400 steps away from the city. If he advances another 200 steps, he will be within an arrow's reach, and there will be scattered strong bows that can hit him.
However, since Wang Zichao was destined, no one else said much. Soon Wang Zichao was two hundred steps away from the city. Someone shot an arrow on the city wall, but the arrow missed and fell from exhaustion a few meters away.
Wang Zichao ordered people to set up Zhou Zong's banner and launched a charge. Some people rushed to the city. However, the city gate was strong and it was of no use. At this time, Wang Zichao once again tried to advance his chariot fifty meters.
One hundred and fifty meters is within the range of a bow and arrow, and even Chu Dang, who is not very good at using his brain, feels it is inappropriate.
"Your Highness, this... is too dangerous!"
"If not, how to lure the enemy?"
Chu Tang scratched his head and didn't quite understand this, but what he said made sense. He was a straight-minded person, but one good thing was that he was obedient.
So Chu Dan ordered his men to advance the chariots another fifty meters. Gong Jian learned that the prince was attacking the city, and the flag was upright. The chariots under the flag were only 150 meters away from the city. And his opinion was that
Above, the person sitting upright is none other than Wang Zichao!
Gong Jian immediately went to the city gate to check. Of course he knew Wang Zichao, so he recognized him at a glance.
Gong Jian immediately ordered his men to shoot arrows in the direction of the banner. The arrows were missing like rain, and they were all shot at Wang Zichao. In order to avoid missing the arrows, Wang Zichao suddenly fell off the chariot.
This was not all an act by Wang Zichao. After all, the arrow was coming with a fierce force. If he didn't dodge, he would be in danger of being shot. Wang Zichao got up in embarrassment and shouted at Chu Dang:
"Chu Dang! Cut off the flag!"
Chu Dang didn't want to think too much, he stepped forward directly, made a gesture of plucking willows with his hands, roared, and broke the flag abruptly. As soon as the flag fell, he ordered his troops to retreat, and the attackers immediately retreated.
The prince climbed up to the chariot a little clumsily. Unexpectedly, his foot slipped and he fell to the ground again. He was thrown to the ground, not to mention how embarrassed he was.
All of this was clearly seen by Gong Jian on the city wall. Wang Zichao fell down again and seemed very angry.
At this time, Chu Dang brought a horse over and lay down on the ground himself. This was because the horse at this time did not have stirrups. Generally, if you want to get on the horse, you have to use your feet. The prince stepped on Chu Dang and supported the horse's back.
, it looks like he is about to jump up.
Unexpectedly, the horse actually moved at this time, and Wang Zichao fell to the ground again, three times in a row.
Gong Jian on the city wall took a deep breath. How could he miss such a good opportunity? As long as he captured or killed the prince and put an end to this "rebellion", he would be granted a title and a title.
Then look at the prince stamping his feet angrily, cursing endlessly, and then preparing to retreat on foot, but he staggered as if he was drunk, and it seemed that he was a little confused from the few falls.
Gong Jian couldn't bear it any longer and shouted immediately:
"The prince is right there! Go out of the city and capture him! Whether you capture him alive or kill him, you will be rewarded heavily!"
The city gates immediately opened wide, and five thousand people rushed out, all heading towards Wang Zichao. The three thousand soldiers led by Wang Zichao were untrained, and their morale collapsed at the first touch. Seeing the commander's defeat, they were even more chaotic at this moment.
A group of people fled one after another.
Wang Zichao did not mount his horse, so he was running much slower. At this moment, someone from Gong Jun had already caught up with him.
Wang Zichao was surrounded by several people. Wang Zichao swung the big sword in his hand without any plan. Seeing that Wang Zichao was in danger, Chu Dang held the San Ge Ji in one hand and picked up Wang Zi Chao in the other. Along the way, the San Ge Ji
Wherever he went, he raised and lowered his halberd, just like chopping melons and vegetables. When a wolf entered the flock of sheep, he was forced to fight his way out.
Gong Jian was extremely unwilling to see such a situation. The prince was right in front of him, how could he be allowed to escape so easily?
So, he personally ordered five thousand elites again, and he was bound to capture the prince!
Chu Dang was like an evil god at this time. Although he was carrying a person on his shoulders, he had no influence at all.
He ran and brandished the Sangoji, lifting the weight as lightly as he could. Although there were thousands of troops chasing him behind him, Wang Zichao felt very at ease with a smile on his lips. He knew that what he had just done was half-truth and half-false.
They really deceived Gong Jian!
