After waiting for a few days in Yiyang, there was no news about Xian Yufu and Wei Yan. It was not an option for the army to stay here, so Long Fei ordered the army to approach Luoyang. Yiyang is south of Luoyang, because Yu Jin, Li Dian, Le Jin and others
The troops and horses were still in Xingyang. The dragon army was not marching very fast. It was already three days before they arrived at Luoyang City.
Looking at the brightly lit lights on Luoyang City, the soldiers guarding the city did not feel the slightest fear due to the arrival of the Dragon Army. They all stood there in high spirits, looking as if they were ready to die. Xu Shu nodded: "This Sima Yi is really capable.
In just a few days, Cao's army became so elite."
Li Ru shook his head: "These were originally the elite of Cao Cao's army. They were formed from the most elite Qingzhou soldiers under Cao Cao's command. However, Cao Cao's army has declined over the years and has not reflected the value of Qingzhou soldiers. If it weren't for these Qingzhou Yellow Turbans, how could Cao Cao defeat Yuan Shao?
?”
Every sentence of the conversation between the two was on point. However, the more Dian Wei listened, the more uncomfortable he heard it, and he roared: "You two are so chatty and you don't say anything bad about them. Why don't you believe Grandpa Dian that I will fight my way into Luoyang?"
Li Ru smiled: "General Dian is brave and brave, and everyone in the world knows it. How can we underestimate the general? I am just saying that when such good soldiers meet the general, their fate is bad."
"Hehehehe..." Now Dianwei was satisfied, and giggled: "This is a human saying, as soon as I take action, Luoyang City will be conquered in an instant."
A group of soldiers followed Dian Wei and yelled. Long Fei suddenly turned around and glared at Dian Wei with eyes like an eagle. Dian Wei hurriedly shut up and dropped the blackened head, and the soldiers beside him also quickly fell silent.
.Li Ru and others shook their heads and smiled bitterly.
Long Fei looked at the lights on the city wall, which were as bright as day. The soldiers were motionless, and he frowned: "Fengxiao, I think there is something wrong. Sima Yi has fewer soldiers and horses than us. If he wants to defeat me, he will use strange tactics. And
To defend Luoyang in such a high-profile manner this time is unreasonable both emotionally and rationally! Sima Yi is not an idiot, doesn’t he understand?"
Guo Jia glanced at Long Fei: "His Majesty is indeed different. This is Sima Yi's brilliance. This is the so-called secret plot against Chen Cang."
"Report..., Xian Yufu, the two generals Wei Yan want to see you!"
Guo Jiadao: "Whatever you think comes to you. I believe these two people have already figured out what tricks Sima Yi has done."
In the large tent of the Chinese army, Long Fei sat in command, Huang Zhong and Guo Jia were divided on the left and right, and a group of civil servants and generals, according to their own ranks, fought neatly in rows. Because it was a military meeting, the people in the big tent
They were the core of this army. They sent soldiers from the guard camp a hundred steps away from the big tent to stand guard. Xian Yufu and Wei Yan showed their ID cards, and two soldiers led them to the big tent.
Dian Wei and Xu Chu were standing outside the big tent door. Their huge bodies were like door gods. Anyone who saw them would tremble. When the two came here, the two soldiers leading the way retreated. Dian Wei looked at the two of them up and down.
: "Wait!" He turned around and went into the tent.
There was not much time, so he came out again and let the two people in. The tent was even more heavily guarded. Along the outer circle of the tent, soldiers stood next to each other in a full circle. Each one was wearing heavy armor and wanted to hang.
The sword and the badge on the chest indicate that they are all officers above centurion. It is not easy to be a centurion in the Dragon Army. The Dragon Army does not need other soldiers. As long as you are brave and kill more people, you can be promoted. The Dragon Army
There is a strict system, and military skills are only considered in one aspect. To be a centurion, you must know at least a hundred words. This is not an easy task for soldiers who fight for a living.
Behind Long Fei, not to mention Chen Dao and Meng Shuo, there were more than a dozen tall and round men in the back. These people were all captains, so naturally they all had extraordinary hands. Xian Yufu and Wei Yan quickly knelt down and saluted.
Long Fei asked the two of them to stand up: "Do you two have any news from Luoyang City?"
Wei Yan quickly said: "Yes! Your Majesty, Sima Yi is sending people to smear black stuff on the roofs of every household in Luoyang City. Most of it has been smeared. General Xianyu guessed that this stuff is called oil and can be ignited!"
"Oil?" It's not like Long Fei has never heard of these two words. This thing is a treasure in future generations. All power comes from it. After hearing this, Long Fei was a little happy. If there is oil, it would be good to have an industrial revolution.
.
Li Ru was from Xiliang. When Long Fei mentioned the word "petroleum", he thought he didn't know it, so he explained: "The "Book of Han" written by Ban Gu of the previous dynasty recorded that 'Gao Nu has water to burn.' Gao Nu means Beidi.
, in the Shangjun area, I heard that after a period of time, a layer of black sticky substance will accumulate in the river there and float on the water. People will take it home to light lamps, make fires, and keep warm. The only disadvantage is that there is black smoke after burning.
It is easy to stain clothes black. Local people believe that this substance comes from stones in the river and looks like ointment, so it is called petroleum."
"I know this!" Everyone thought Long Fei should be surprised, but Long Fei seemed to have known it for a long time, and instead asked something else: "Are you sure Sima Yi used oil?"
Wei Yan and Xian Yufu looked at each other, and Xian Yufu said: "Every night, the soldiers and horses in the city are not allowed to light fires. They only make fires for cooking in the place where the palace used to be. So we guessed that this thing is afraid of fire and we conclude that it is oil."
Xu Shu added: "Sima Yi's family is in Hanoi. He traveled to various places in his early years. It is not uncommon to know about oil. It turns out that Sima Yi wanted us to invade Luoyang and then burn Luoyang and burn us all to death! Instead of doing this, we should set fire to it first.
, burn him!"
"No, absolutely not!" Li Ru waved his hand quickly: "More than 10,000 Cao's troops have come out of Luoyang City, and there are tens of thousands of people. If we set fire to it, the people will definitely suffer. If we burn an entire city to death, it will be no small matter. Your Majesty
I have always been close to the people, and I cannot ruin the reputation of my Tianlong Empire for the sake of this little Luoyang!"
"Well said!" Long Fei nodded towards Li Ru: "Yes, Luoyang must not be burned. Dong Zhuo had already burned it once, and the capital of the previous dynasty had been abandoned for a long time. If we burn it again, Luoyang doesn't know what will happen.
How long will it take to recover? Sima Yi wants to burn Luoyang, we have to stop him."
"How to stop this?" Xu Shu said: "Sima Yi obviously wants to set a fire. As long as he doesn't come out, we have to go in. As soon as we enter the city, Sima Yi will definitely set a fire. We can't control it at all. We can't just let Luoyang go without fighting, right?"
"That's not a bad idea!" Long Fei said. Everyone was stunned, thinking that Long Fei would give up Luoyang for these tens of thousands of people. This place is an important road between north, south and east. Cao Cao was unwilling to give up here.
A needle must be placed in Long Fei's chest to make Long Fei feel uncomfortable all the time. Therefore, Long Fei's first target in this attack is Luoyang.
Xu Shu wanted to speak, but Guo Jia waved his hand and said, "Yuan Zhi doesn't need to say any more. Your Majesty has already decided, and we can't go against it."
Because at this time, the Dragon Army stayed at the gate of Luoyang City for another two days. It was almost half a month since the troops were dispatched, and the Dragon Army stalled in Luoyang, which surprised everyone. Le Jin chuckled and said: "This Sima Yi still has some abilities.
He actually blocked the Dragon Army in Luoyang."
Yu Jin shook his head and sighed: "This man is so cruel! Compared with him, I appreciate Long Fei more. I would rather give up Luoyang than harm the people. We are so ashamed!"
"What did the general say?" Li Dian said: "The Dragon Army led troops to invade our border. As a general of the Wei State and the common people, we must do everything for the Wei State to stop the enemy. If we can sacrifice the people of Luoyang and save our Wei State, this matter
Doable!”
Le Jin also said: "Yes! It doesn't matter what method he uses, as long as he can stop Long Fei!"
Yu Jin looked at the two of them: "If Long Fei orders a fire attack on Luoyang, do you think Sima Yi can still stop it? Sima Yi is betting on Long Fei's patience. He not only puts himself in danger, but also risks Luoyang.
The lives of tens of thousands of people are at stake, and this is also to show the world who is the one who loves the people! After this battle, the people's support for Long Fei is unprecedented, but on the contrary, they hate Wei Jun even more. Do you believe it?"
After what Yu Jin said, the two of them were speechless. Le Jin was still arguing: "So what, the big thing is to be able to protect Wei."
Sima Yi was relieved when he saw that Long's army was stagnant. Indeed, he was betting, and the outcome depended on Long Fei's thoughts. Fortunately, he won the bet, and Long Fei did not attack. Just in case, Sima Yi secretly
He sent people to dig a tunnel in the north of the city. If Long Fei could endure it, this would be his last resort to save his life. In fact, he didn't want Long Fei to stop. If Long Fei burned down Luoyang, plus Hei Bing's strength in Hebei, he would reappear.
The glory of General Tiangong back then was not difficult to achieve.
Long Fei is unwilling to attack, so the Long Army can only stay where it is. There are tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, and the daily cost is huge. Long Fei is also engaged in a psychological struggle. He has killed people, both before and now. He has also seen dead people. But
Those are all people who deserve to die. If he is allowed to massacre the people, he will not be able to survive psychologically. However, the situation in Luoyang is like this, no attack! What if the next target is like this again?
Guo Jia, Li Ru, and Xu Shu looked at the figure dangling in Long Fei's tent. Xu Shu said: "There is really nothing we can do? How about sending someone to sneak in?"
Li Ru shook his head: "Xian Yufu, Wei Yan made it clear that Sima Yi has blocked the four gates. There are soldiers and horses guarding the city wall twelve hours a day. The lights are bright at night, so it is unrealistic for large groups of soldiers and horses to sneak in."
Xu Shu turned his head and said to Guo Jiaqi: "By the way, Fengxiao is called a genius. When it officially comes into play at this time, why have you been silent these past few days?"
Guo Jia looked up at the sky. There was wind in the sky, and the taller treetops were swayed left and right by the wind. The birds standing on them spread their wings and tried to maintain balance, but it still didn't work, so they had to get up and stand.
Flying into the distance in the wind. Guo Jia smiled faintly and glanced at the two of them: "I do have a plan, but I don't know if you two have the guts to do it with me!"
