Chapter 165 Setting up and breaking the formation
Wang Chen's attack on the city lasted for more than an hour and then quickly retreated.
Early on the next morning, the siege began again, and this time it only lasted an hour before ending.
On the third day,...
By the seventh day, the siege of the Sui Dynasty had become very perfunctory. Thousands of vanguard troops held banners and roared towards the city. As a result, the ladders were not even erected on the city wall before they ran back.
, which stunned Wang Shichong and others.
In the main hall of Luoyang Palace, the five rebel kings gathered together again.
"Brothers, what do you mean by Wang Chen? In the past three days, they have been attacking the city like children playing house, which has made me upset!" Wang Shichong sat weakly on the dragon chair and looked at everyone.
.
"I am also very confused. This Wang Chen seems to be having fun. I really can't figure out what he wants to do!" Dou Jiande also couldn't figure it out.
"Is it possible that Wang Chen has lost his interest in us and is using this method to annoy me?"
Meng Jiong threw his hands and said speechlessly.
"My lords, please listen to what I have to say!"
Taoist Tieguan intervened at this moment. After all, he was Wang Shichong's most trusted national advisor and had the status to participate in the discussions among the kings.
"My lords, Rong Laodao would like to say that Wang Chen's move is indeed abnormal. However, Wang Chen is not a fool, nor does he do it just for fun. He must have a purpose for this move!"
Taoist Tieguan's words were approved by the rebel kings. It is true that Wang Chen has never done this before, so Wang Chen must have some plan for doing this now.
"Come to see, Master Yi, what is Wang Chen's plan?" After Wang Shichong thought for a long time, he turned his head and asked Wang Shichong.
The rebel kings also looked at Taoist Tieguan.
"In my opinion, that Wang Chen is just delaying time!" Taoist Tieguan said firmly.
"As for the purpose of delaying time, the old Taoist seems to have two purposes. The first one is to delay us, and then send troops to attack the kings' territories. The second one, maybe Wang Chen will show up soon!
"
Taoist Tieguan continued.
"Hmph! Wang Chen is overestimating his capabilities with this move! There are hundreds of generals and tens of thousands of troops in our territory!"
"Besides, from what I can see, Wang Chen's camp has not reduced its troops at all, and if that old patron king leads troops to invade my realm, it will make him look good!"
Dou Jiande curled his lips disdainfully.
"My subordinates are all masters of hundreds of battles, why should I be afraid?" Xue Ju also shouted.
However, King Liu Wuzhou of Xia Ming Dynasty and King Meng Jiigong of Song Yi Dynasty did not speak.
"Okay, great kings, please wait a moment. The old Taoist said that in three days at most, we will know what Wang Chen wants to do!" Taoist Tieguan continued.
Everyone nodded in affirmation.
…Sui Camp…
In the handsome tent
"Your Majesty, not only has the Qimen Dunjia Bagua Formation been arranged, but it has also been formed into an array within an array together with the Eight Door Golden Lock Formation!"
Xu Maogong said with a smile.
Behind them, Xin Wenli, Master Shang and Disciple Shang, and Yuchi Gong all walked up, indicating that they were already familiar with the changes in the formation.
"Okay, then next, we need rebels like Wang Shichong to send people to break the formation!" Wang Chen said with a smile after taking a sip of tea.
"But Your Majesty, those rebels have been hiding in the city, how can we let them come out to break the formation!?" Yuchi Gong said, clasping the back of his head.
"It's simple. In my name, I will give a guarantee to those who rebel against the king. As long as they break my formation, I will immediately withdraw my troops and will not invade their territory again for three years!"
Wang Chen explained to everyone.
Everyone nodded. No one thought that Sui Dynasty would lose, especially the three of Xin Wenli. After experiencing the transformation of the Eight-door Golden Lock Formation into the Qi-Men Dunjia Bagua Formation, they felt a sense of suffocation, and themselves
If you are still a defender, what if you change to a defender? What would it be like?
"Calculating the time, Mu Guiying and the others should have almost taken a detour to Longxi. They should be arriving at Xue Ju's territory now!" Wang Chen raised his head slightly, a glimmer of light flashing in his eyes.
"As long as no accidents happen, we should have arrived by now!" Xu Maogong agreed.
"It's just that I always feel that I have overlooked something, but I can't catch it!"
After Wang Chen was silent for a while, he suddenly said these words.
After Xu Maogong and others thought for a while, Xu Maogong's eyes suddenly lit up.
"Your Majesty, we have ignored the Liuwang family and Taiyuan Li Yuan!"
Xu Maogong's words instantly woke up Wang Chen.
Wang Chen indeed ignored Li Yuan, because during this period, Liu Wang and the Duke of Tang's Mansion were too quiet, a bit too quiet.
"Something's not right about Li Yuan. It was calm before the storm. I will send someone to monitor them!" Wang Chen said to everyone.
Everyone present nodded, because Wang Chen's confidants all knew that Wang Chen seemed to have a very mysterious force in his hands. This team did not go to the battlefield, nor did it mainly kill the enemy, but its purpose was to spy on intelligence and so on.
For example, the Zou family and the Li family that were exterminated were all caught by the mysterious team, and then they were exterminated by Wang Chen.
"Okay, now it's up to you, Yu Chigong, to call Guan Guan and tell Wang Shichong and others about our purpose!"
Wang Chen said respectfully to Yuchi.
After Yuchi Gong responded and clasped his fists, he strode out of the tent and headed straight to Luoyang City.
"Listen to the five major rebels in the city. I, Prince Shenwu of the Great Sui Dynasty, have shown great mercy and will give you a chance. We, the Great Sui Dynasty, have set up a formation. If you guys can break the formation, we, the Great Sui Dynasty, will retreat immediately and will not commit any crimes within three years.
Your territory!"
"Oh, by the way, this is in the name of King Wu of the Sui Dynasty!"
After Yuchi Gong finished speaking, he turned his horse's head and left.
The city guard immediately sent someone to the palace to inform Wang Shichong.
"Report! Report to the king, report to all the kings, that Wang Chen just sent someone to say,
They say that the Sui Dynasty set up a formation outside the city, and then asked us to break the formation. As long as we can break the formation, they will retreat immediately and not invade our territory within three years!"
The soldiers who ran into the hall knelt on one knee opposite Wang Shichong and reported to Wang Hui who was against the crowd.
Everyone was stunned, which one was Wang Chen playing?
"Sure enough, it seems that this is Wang Chen's purpose!" Taoist Tieguan said calmly.
Everyone reacted immediately. It turned out that Wang Chen was preparing the formation these days to make a big gamble for everyone.
"Well, it seems that Wang Chen's purpose is very obvious, but Wang Chen has been preparing for so many days, so this formation may not be simple!"
Wang Shichong rubbed the beard on his chin and said lightly.
"My lord, my lords, please promise them first. Since Wang Chen swears by his reputation, we are determined to break this formation. After all, Wang Chen's withdrawal, plus three years, is enough to delay the Sui Dynasty.
Total collapse!"
After thinking about it for a while, Taoist Tieguan said to everyone.
Everyone thought about it and realized that not invading their territory for three years was a good temptation.
No one doubts that Wang Chen is a white wolf, after all, Wang Chen's reputation is well known in the world.
"Go to the Sui camp and send a message, saying that we agree with King Wu's suggestion. The time will be noon tomorrow. We will definitely attend the appointment on time!"
Wang Shichong waved his hand and said.
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
The soldier clasped his fists and walked away.
"Since Wang Chen wants us to break the formation, we must set up the formation first. In this case, I'll take a look at what formation they have set up first!"
Tieguan Taoist people have a clear mind.
Taoist Tieguan believes that although his Taoist skills may not be as good as those of many fellow Taoists, when it comes to this kind of military formation, Taoist Tieguan is still relatively confident.
Taoist Tieguan has studied and dabbled in most of the formations from ancient times to the present.
"Okay! We have the Imperial Master here, so Wang Chen will definitely lose this time!"
"Hahaha! It's time for Wang Chen to have a taste of failure, right?" Meng Jiigong continued with a smile.
"yes!"
"Come, brothers, have a drink!"
"Drink, drink!"
Early the next morning
