War drums sounded everywhere, resounding through the clouds.
In Longyue City, I heard that the generals from Zhong came following the sound and stood proudly on the top of the city.
A strong wind roared past, and the smoke and dust in the wilderness outside the city set off a huge whirlpool, quickly rushing towards the sky.
this moment.
Hou Junji's 50,000 troops have already arrived at the city. In front of the camp, generals Nangong Shi, Chen Qi, Zheng Lun, Xin Wenli, and Wei Ben reined in their horses and stood up.
In an instant, gunpowder smoke began to fill the air, and a murderous aura swept over the sky.
"General Wen, there are not many enemies in Longtang outside the city. They should have left and returned, hoping to retake Longyue City."
"As the saying goes, it is easier to ask the gods than to send them away. Longyue City is already in the hands of our army. It is simply wishful thinking for the Longtang enemy to recapture it."
"After several days, they have lost all their food and grass, and have no siege equipment. Longyue City, with its high walls and thick walls, is an unshakable beast to them."
Wen Zhong said calmly with a smile on his cheeks.
"According to the general's words, we don't need to go out to fight. We just need to defend the city and prevent them from attacking for a long time. I believe that before long, the enemy's morale will be depleted and they will be nothing more than a pile of loose sand."
Hearing Jia Fu's words, Wen Zhong nodded lightly and sneered, "That's right. If you don't go out of the city to fight, you will also give the enemy a gift."
"Send the order and let the Huotou Army start cooking!"
Wen Zhong turned around and gave an order to the captain general behind him. For a moment, the eyes of Jia Fu, Yue Yun, Zhang Xian, Lu Wenlong, and Pei Yuanqing were all focused on him.
When the army came to the city, they heard that the old general asked the Huotou army to cook. This move had a profound meaning, and everyone was suspicious and puzzled.
"General Wen wanted the soldiers of the three armies to go out of the city to kill the enemy after they had had enough wine and food, but the three armies had finished eating!"
Pei Yuanqing's loud voice spread, and others nodded. Obviously, his inquiry was exactly what others wanted to know.
"Haha~"
"This meal is for the enemy troops outside the city. The dry food carried during a normal march can only last for five days at most. Eight days have passed and they have come all the way from the wild boar forest. I believe they are already hungry."
"Cook some food for them. I believe the enemy will be willing to enter the city to taste it!"
Wen Zhong raised his head and laughed wildly. He had already made a plan in his mind. This move could easily disintegrate Longtang's enemy army outside the city without any bloodshed.
at this time.
At the front line of the enemy troops in Longtang, Hou Junji looked sideways at Nangong Shi and asked, "Brother, the enemy troops are firmly defending the city. Our army has no siege equipment. It may not be easy to break into the city."
"Wait with peace of mind. I have sent Tianwu Pavilion disciples to sneak into the city. As soon as the signal flare blooms in the void, we will attack the city immediately."
"When the time comes, the inside and outside will work together, and it will be easy to take down Longyue City!"
Nangong Shi had great confidence in the disciples of Tianwu Pavilion, and was sure that they could open the city gate for the army.
When Hou Junji learned about Nangong Shi's plan, he didn't say anything. Whether it would succeed or not, he could only pin his hopes on the disciples of Tianwu Pavilion in the city.
this moment.
Both Wen Zhong and Nangong Shi have their own plans. Whose plan is better will soon be revealed.
.............
An hour later.
Huo Toujun carried the prepared meals to the city, steaming hot and fragrant.
With a smile on his cheeks, Wen Zhong raised his eyes and stared at the Longtang enemy army outside the city. The aroma of the food was riding the wind, and he believed that it would soon spread throughout the Longtang enemy camp.
When the time comes, whether they can withstand the temptation depends on how hungry they are.
At this moment, a school captain came quickly on foot, stepped forward and saluted with his fist, "Generals, there are more than a thousand unidentified people appearing under the West Street City, and they are approaching the city gate at this moment."
"Well!"
"It turns out that he had other plans. No wonder he stood still for so long!"
"Jia Fu, Yuan Qing, and Yue Yun, you three will lead the troops to kill the mysterious man who sneaked into the city. Remember not to let them mix with the three armies."
"Don't worry, once they enter the city, their lives have come to an end. Even if a sheep enters a tiger's mouth, they will dig three feet into the ground, and they will all be killed."
Jia Fuxiong's loud voice spread, he picked up his silver halberd and walked quickly towards the city. Pei Yuanqing and Yue Yun followed closely behind and quickly gathered soldiers to surround them on the West Street.
at this time.
Outside the city, the Longtang enemy camp began to commotion, and all the soldiers sniffed, "What's the smell? It's so fragrant?"
Nangong Shi and Hou Jun gathered to see the salivating looks of the soldiers around them, and their faces were ashen and ferocious. They did not expect that the Chu army would be so despicable and use such a vicious strategy.
Tomorrow they will be deprived of food and supplies for a few days, but now they are confusing the three armies with the smell of the food. For a moment, the army is in chaos, and the soldiers of the three armies have been aroused and have no intention of fighting anymore.
They all raised their heads and sniffed wildly, looking extremely embarrassed. At this moment, the enemy troops of Longtang looked like they were looking at plum blossoms to quench their thirst.
"Listen, Longtang soldiers outside the city. I know that you have been starving for many days. Hot meals in the city have been prepared for you. As long as you put down your weapons and surrender, the delicious food will appear in your hands immediately."
A sudden sound spread through the void and clearly entered the ears of Longtang's enemy troops. Faced with the temptation of delicious food, the soldiers began to waver.
See the situation.
Hou Junji looked anxious, wondering why an hour had passed and there was no news at all about the Tianwu Pavilion disciples. If they did not launch an attack on the city, the psychological defenses of the soldiers of the three armies would be broken. They could not withstand the temptation of delicious food, and the army would be in chaos.
"Listen, officers and men, the Chu army has prepared fine wine and delicacies for us. As long as we attack the city, everything will belong to you."
"kill!"
Nangong Shi raised his hand and unsheathed his sword, pointing the sword's edge directly at the city. When the soldiers of the three armies heard that there would be delicious food when they entered the city, they ran forward like tigers coming out of the gate and rushed out.
At this moment, they don't want to attack the city, they just want to get closer to delicious food.
I'm so hungry.
Under the temptation of the delicious aroma, they would rather die than sit still and wait for death.
Kill~
Kill~
The killing cry shook the sky and resounded through the clouds.
Hou Junji saw that Nangong Shi was taking the lead and looked sideways at Xin Wenli, "General Xin, leading the Xuanjia army, will break through the city gate even if they use their bodies to attack it."
Suddenly.
With one man, one horse and one horse, Hou Junji led his army to charge forward. Wen Zhong on the city had a panoramic view of everything, and whispered: "There are really people in this world who will not die until they reach the Yellow River."
"In this case, I will help you!"
Wen Zhong waved his hands to the soldiers on both sides, and pointed the red cannon and flintlock rifle directly at the city, waiting for the Longtang enemy to charge forward.
At that time, they had nowhere to hide and had no choice but to be shot by the Chu army.
The preparations for the firearms battalion are over, and the Shenjian battalion is at war with its swords and arrows. Just waiting for an order, the enemy troops outside the city will be killed in the rain of arrows.
Nangong Shi galloped on his horse. As he moved forward, he looked back at Hou Junji and said, "Third brother, you are as light as a swallow. The Chu army in the city can't do anything to you. If there are people under your command who are outstanding in lightness skills, let them kill with you."
Go up to the city and destroy the enemy's firearms."
"Brother, there are hundreds of people behind me in the direction of the eldest brother. Third brother will lead his men to the city right now!"
Hou Junji picked up the reins and changed the direction of his mount, leading a hundred people behind him to rush toward the corner of the city wall. This was a blind spot that was beyond the reach of the Chu army's firearms, which was perfect for them to complete their mission.
When Nangong Shi saw everyone leaving, he nodded lightly at Wei Bi, Zheng Lun, and Chen Qi, and the four of them galloped away. As they moved forward, there were loud sounds like thunder in the sky, which was deafening and made people's livers and gallbladders burst.
