Chapter 286: The plan to break the city

Chapter 286

Li Tian expected that it was not bad. Zhao might lead the army to rescue the Wu Gang, but the direction Zhao Ji went was beyond Li Tian's expectations.

Zhao Jishu led an army of 50,000, but did not return to the Wu Gang, but rushed straight to Jiangxia.

Now Jiang Xia gathers most of the troops in the country, and is fighting with the Wu Gang, but the country is quite empty. Only the king capital Shirley City still has a soldier. Yang Sheng ordered Zhao Ji not to go to the Wu Gang, but he asked him to attack Jiang Xia directly. This move was beyond Li Tian's expectations.

Zhao Ji's army was quietly taking action in the early morning. Li Tianyi received a report from the birds and immediately called the charlatan couple who had just arrived back in the early morning to lead their troops back to meet with Guo Jing. However, Zhao Ji changed his lane on the road and went directly to Jiangxia, and played the charlatan couple with Guo Jing and the others.

When the charlatan heard the birds saying that Zhao's army had changed direction, Lian Yangsheng was so angry that he led all the women from the Zhao family to greet them.

"###Bi! This God Messenger didn't sleep all night and just went back and ran back. He was as tired as a bear. Zhao Ji actually fooled me. Lao Guo, do you think we should chase me too?"

"Sir God, I think it's better to discuss with Lord Li Tian before making a decision." Guo Jing didn't dare to make a decision without authorization to take the 40,000 troops away. If Li Tian is in a tight position, that's not a trivial matter.

"I don't think it's necessary to discuss it. The previous few times Zhao Ji relied on the large number of people to make some profits. Now he doesn't have many soldiers. I'll see if I don't capture him alive." Zhang Guihua was also very depressed and wanted to chase him now.

The charlatan got the news, and Li Tian got the news too. This time Li Tian was not depressed and directly asked the birds to send a message to the charlatan and Guo Jing, ordering them to chase Zhao Ji with all their might, so there is no need to worry about him.

Li Tian also admired Yang Sheng and Zhao Ji's strategy of "surrounding Wei and saving Zhao". With Zhao Ji's ability, Jiangxia's cities could not stop his attack at all. With Zhao Ji's speed, they could reach Shinye City in two days. Although Zhao Ji may not be able to take Shinye City, the Jiangxia government and the people will definitely panic and will definitely order the Wu Gang's troops to return to the North Korea to defend.

Li Tian could even imagine that when Zhao Ji attacked Jiangxia with great force, the timid civil officials in the Jiangxia court would definitely suggest that the king draw a large number of troops from the Wu Gang to defend. Sun Hao, the Minister of War, fought hard in the Wu Gang. As long as he draws troops to defend, it would be a waste of all his previous efforts.

Li Tian thought of this, so he ordered the sage and his wife to pursue him. He also sent the fastest cavalry of the army, who followed his personal message to go to the Jiangxia Palace. Li Tian ordered the brothers of the human and horses to arrive at the lower wing day and night in one day. He told the King of Jiangxia not to be afraid, and the envoy of the gods had led the army to support him.

Li Tian did this to appease the hearts of the Jiangxia court and the people. He must not order Sun Hao from the Wu Gang to withdraw his troops at this time.

When the charlatan army moved, Yang Sheng also received news from the scout. But Yang Sheng was very surprised. When he ordered Zhao Ji to take action, it was in the early morning and he walked very secretly. How did Li Tian get the news? Even if there were traitors, it would not be possible to know Zhao Ji's action route so quickly, right?

Yang Sheng can only launch a big chase against Li Tian, ​​and want to use this method to ask Li Tian to order the charlatan to bring people back to help. Li Tian now has less than 40,000 people, so it is impossible for him to fight with Yang Sheng again. He can only start running around again to avoid the encirclement of the army.

When Zhao and his army arrived at the first city, they did not suffer any resistance. When thousands of officers and soldiers in the city saw so many troops to attack the city, they were so scared that they didn't even dare to show their faces. The city defense officer directly took people to escape. Fortunately, the man and horse tribe were in a costume of the people and were not investigated.

Zhao Jiben wanted to hurry to the next city, but his purpose was to panic in the Jiangxia court and the people of the country and order the soldiers of the Wu Gang to retreat.

But before Zhao Ji could rest, he heard the scout come to report. "Report to the general, a large army behind him chased him, seeing that the flag was Zhang Guihua, the Chaodu and the envoy."

"They are chasing me? So fast?" Zhao Ji was also shocked when he heard this.

"Come on, close the city gate. The bald couple will not bring many people to the city. It is still okay for us to defend the city with 50,000 troops." Zhao Ji knew the difficulty of siege, and he didn't believe that the sage and Li Tian were both here. After several battles, Zhao Ji knew that the sage couple had only 40,000 people.

Zhang Guihua and the sage looked at the "Zhao" flag on the city and cursed at the city in anger. Guo Jing was also a little helpless. They came in a hurry and did not bring any equipment to attack the city.

"If you have the ability, come out for me. Let's fight for 301 rounds, whoever loses will be grandson. Don't hide in it as a turtle, that's not a man." The charlatan waved two small axes in his hand and cursed loudly under the city.

"Hmph! Bald man, if you have the ability, you can attack me. Don't learn to bark outside. This provocation method is useless to grandpa." Zhao Ji looked at the charlatan on the top of the city and said ridiculously.

"###Bi! You dare to say that I am learning to bark by dogs, you are dead! Come on, bring me a bow, I will shoot him to death." The charlatan was so angry that he was pissed.

A man from the Horse tribe handed over a heavy bow. The charlatan held the heavy bow in his hand and placed the arrow on the string with his right hand. The shape was pretty good. He just pulled it for a long time and didn't pull the bow open. His face turned red, which made the city burst into laughter.

"Smile! Do you think you're not satisfied with shooting you bastard to death, or do you still keep using the two axes of my God's envoy to kill you?" The charlatan said, throwing the heavy bow to the brother of the human horse. But he cursed in his heart, ####, I don't know how to get me a soft bow.

"Sir God's Envoy, Osmanthus, I think we will set up a camp first, and we will think of a plan to break the city." Guo Jing knew that this would not be a solution, but he would see if there were other ways to solve it.

Zhao Ji saw the situation of the charlatan army and knew that they did not have the tools to climb the city. But he did not dare to waste too much time. Zhao Ji gritted his teeth and decided to distribute 10,000 soldiers and horses, led by Wang Ming, who was injured and not yet healed, to defend the city here and block the charlatan army's advance. However, he himself, with 40,000 soldiers and horses, prepared to continue his march towards Jiangxia.

In fact, Zhao Ji also understood that his this was just a tactical strategy, and 40,000 soldiers would definitely not be able to take down Jiangxia's royal city. But Zhao Ji could cause great harm to other cities, and even said that he could step down from the country alone. In this way, even if Jiang Xia captured the capital of the Wu Gang, it would be more than worth the loss. At that time, the members of the Wu Gang royal family abandoned the city and fled to other Wu Gang cities. After a period of cultivation, they would make a comeback. Unless Jiang Xia destroyed the blue card in the new moon and destroyed the Wu Gang's royal family, it would be considered true destruction.

As long as the king of the Wu Gang is still there and Zhao Ji takes several Jiangxia cities in a row, it means that everyone has a draw. In terms of psychology and face, Jiang Xia will not do this, and will definitely send troops to fight against Zhao Ji. As a royal city, the lowering must retain certain troops and horses, and to fight against Zhao Ji. At present, Jiang Xia can only withdraw certain troops from the Wu Gang.

Zhao Ji thought it was pretty good, but there was another main point, that was, he could block the pursuer of the charlatan.

Zhang Guihua ordered people to set up camp ten miles away from the city, and the other two were also discussing countermeasures.

"Hua, wait a while and you will give orders to ask your brothers to cut down trees to build tools for stomping the city. I won't believe it. We can't get the broken city even if we attack hard." The sage wanted to start a war with Zhao Ji head-on.

"Sir God, if we attack hard, even if we take down the city, the loss will be great. I think it's better to think of other ways." Guo Jing didn't want to ask his brothers to lose all the losses on the siege.

"Brother Guo, just now our bird brothers discovered that a group of soldiers had already left the city from behind. Zhao Ji wouldn't have to divide the troops into two groups, right?" Zhang Guihua also came from a military family, and at this point, she could see farther than the charlatan and Guo Jing.

"What? A team of soldiers left through the back door of the city?" Guo Jing felt a little strange when he heard the news.

"I have sent people to the city to observe just now, but the number of people in the city does not seem to have decreased. Is this strange?" Zhang Guihua felt that since Zhao Jifen sent troops, the number of troops in the city should be reduced, but depending on the situation, the city will have at least 20,000 defenses.

Before leaving, Zhao Ji also made a plan for deputy general Wang Ming. He ordered the soldiers to tie more than 10,000 scarecrows, put on battle robes, and put them in inconspicuous places on the city. Some of them only had a helmet behind the battlements, and they really couldn't tell that they were fakes from a distance. In this way, the soldiers in the city basically formed a situation of true and false.

According to normal casualties in the siege, even if 20,000 people defend the city, the opponent must have at least 60,000 or 70,000 troops to attack head-on. Zhao Ji was also a suspicious plan, and the couple did not dare to act rashly.

Zhang Guihua and others thought about it but couldn't figure out any good idea. The charlatan simply ordered the soldiers in the army to rest on the spot and sleep when they should. They were busy all night last night, and they ran back and forth a lot early this morning, and were a little exhausted.

Guo Jing did not dare to rest and took the people outside the city to observe it. The city covers a lot of land. If you want to go around, you not only have to walk nearly one more day, but also cross mountains and rivers and swim across rivers.

After observing for a while, Guo Jing was about to return to the camp when suddenly a Zerg berserker looked at a piece of mugwort in the wilderness and said.

"Sir, I thought of a solution, I don't know if it works."

"What's the solution? Tell me quickly!" Guo Jing asked quickly when he heard that there was a solution.

"Sir, look." The Zerg Bergill pointed to the mugwort with his hand. "This grass is called vine in our Zerg. It can make people sleep in the smoke it burns. Nowadays, the wind is mostly from the south, and the city is north of us. We can burn grass and smoke, wait for a certain level, and then ask the Lizard brothers to climb the wall and attack directly. Anyway, they can easily go up to the city wall without stomping the city tools."

When Guo Jing heard this, he was a little overjoyed, "Are you sure this grass has the effect of sleepiness?" Guo Jing asked with concern.

"Mr. Guo, we Zerg people have tried various toxins since we were young. What are the effects and medicinal properties of plants, trees and flowers? You will know at first taste it, and you will definitely not be wrong."

"Okay, go back to the camp quickly." Guo Jing was so happy that she wanted to tell the charlatan couple about the matter now.

As soon as Guo Jing entered the camp, he immediately ordered the sound of the gong to gather. As soon as the sound of the 'Dangdang' sound sounded, the camp immediately became busy. This was the order for an emergency assembly.

Zhang Guihua rushed out of the tent with a big stick in her hand. The charlatan also held two small axes and pulled a shoe, and shouted loudly: "Brothers, don't panic, I have this envoy here." He thought that Zhao Ji came to attack the camp.

The army quickly assembled and prepared for the battle. Zhang Guihua and the sage saw that nothing happened, but Guo Jing gave the order.

The charlatan shouted angrily, "Old Guo, have you been obsessed with practicing martial arts? We just slept for a while, and you asked someone to beat him. If you don't sleep, I will still sleep." If he hadn't been able to beat Guo Jing, he would really want to go up and beat Guo Jing up.

Guo Jing didn't care and said with a smile: "Miss Osmanthus, Lord God, we have a plan to break the city."

"What did you say? Is there a plan to break the city?" Zhang Guihua asked in surprise.

Guo Jing called out the Zerg Bereavement and said what he had just thought.
