Chapter 135: Nine-patterned Dragon’s Ingenious Plan to Repel the Enemy
Shi Qian didn't know what Shi Jin was thinking. In today's day when he was always in tension, as the head of the family, what Shi Jin was thinking was not only incompatible with Shi Qian's thoughts, but also It doesn't fit in with Shi Jin's usual style of doing things.
But since Shi Jin persisted like this, Shi Qian couldn't say anything else. Although he was a little worried, but then, when he noticed Shi Jin's civet-cat-like smile, Shi Qian also said in his heart Why not? It was as if a wisp of breeze blew into his heart, and he was relieved for the most part. Shi Qian knew it, and Shi Jin had a clever idea in his heart that no one else could see.
As a result, the Shaohuashan brothers who were standing on the tower of Huayin County opened their bows and arrows, and shot arrows one after another at the defeated officers and soldiers below the city. The officers and soldiers who had been killed were in terrible pain at this moment. , everyone cried for father and mother, wailing in pain, and the scene was even more embarrassing for a while. The arrows shot by the Shaohuashan brothers were not only powerful, but also very refreshing, especially when they saw those officers and soldiers who came to attack the city arrogantly, but now they were killed The embarrassing collapse, and the sense of superiority of being able to control the lives and deaths of others at will, greatly boosted the morale of the people trapped in the city in Shaohua Mountain.
When the arrows rained down, and the soldiers shot all the arrows in the pots, the officers and soldiers were all dead at this moment. Those who were frightened also disrupted the formation of their own rear troops. The formation collapsed in all directions.
After Shi Jin shot the last arrow through the heart of a soldier holding a tiger head shield high, he stepped on the arrow stack. Looking from a distance, he saw that the defeated soldiers were like mountains collapsing. Their defeat was irreversible. Now that we have gone far away, I feel quite satisfied. I put my head deeper and said loudly: "Brothers, have a good time."
The brothers in Shaohua Mountain had repelled the enemy at this moment, and they were very excited. They couldn't help but shout in unison: "Happy,"
Although he killed the officers and soldiers, Shi Qian still had many unsolved doubts in his heart. Taking advantage of his free time, he approached Shi Jin and whispered: "Brother, why did you shoot all the arrow feathers? I I thought about it, but still couldn’t figure it out.”
Shi Jin couldn't help but smile after hearing this, and said: "Actually, there's nothing good about it. It's just a trick. We don't have many arrow feathers anymore. If we use them scattered, the power will be greatly weakened. Moreover, in order to save arrow feathers, the golden feet had previously allowed people to easily attack the city. It was because they saw our weakness of lacking arrows that they boldly transported siege equipment to attack the city. Therefore, this time, If you shoot all the arrow feathers, you can not only catch them off guard, but also such a large number of long-range strikes will definitely make the officers and soldiers think that the previous events are all illusions in order to induce them to relax their vigilance, and they will definitely I think there are a lot of arrow feathers in our city, so we dare not act rashly, but,"
Shi Jin looked at Shi Qian's face and frowned slightly at the word "but", then paused and continued: "But, we do have no more arrow feathers to shoot down from the top of the city. "
Shi Qian couldn't help being shocked after hearing this, and quickly interrupted: "Brother, didn't you ask Di Yan to collect the Huang family's arrow feathers? Defending the city is very important, how can there be no arrow feathers?"
"My dear brother, you don't know that the arrow feathers captured by Di Yan are used by others. We no longer need the arrow feathers on the city wall," Shi Jin asserted with certainty.
"Brother, why is this so difficult that the officers and soldiers will never come back again just because their morale is dampened at this moment?" Shi Qian couldn't figure it out even more.
"No, the officers and soldiers will not only come, but they will come again in just one stick of incense," Shi Jin said, looking further and further, looking at the officers and soldiers camp in the distance, and said decisively: "The soldiers who were dispatched at that time The troop strength will probably be several times that of this time, and it can be said to be the biggest tough battle between officers and soldiers to date."
"Brother, how can we hold back our arrows without feathers? How can we just fight hand-to-hand with the officers and soldiers on the top of the city? We are outnumbered and it will only be a matter of time before we are captured." Shi Qian had already been attacked by Shi Jin in his hand at this moment. These words startled him to break into a thin sweat. Shi Qian clutched the hem of his clothes tightly. He was not worried about himself, but that Huayin County had been defended so hard for so long. Once it was lost, to be honest, he was really worried. Reluctant to part with it.
But this is not what Shi Qian is mainly worried about. What he is afraid of is that the problem of the city's destruction is caused by his admired elder brother. After all, "everyone has a thousand worries, and one of them will make a mistake." Shi Qian is too afraid of Shi Jin at this moment. Such a "loss" will not only lose Huayin County, but also make the brothers of Shaohua Mountain complain. Not only will the tall image of the brothers in Shaohua Mountain collapse completely, but also such bad rumors will spread to the whole country. In the arena, the eldest brother's wisdom will also be ruined. Shi Jin's ability to have such a strong prestige in such a short period of time is due to his extraordinary skills and his unpredictable mind. And the power of the mind is more important than the skill. If everyone has doubts about the elder brother's mind, not only will the prestige be greatly reduced, but also the execution of military orders in the future will be affected. So it is linked to the execution. The execution effect will also decline, and then the big brother will step into a vicious circle. In such a helpless world of winners and losers, many people who should have achieved heroic deeds have stepped into such a vicious circle. , and ruined one's career in a muddle-headed manner, and it is often rare for someone to turn around.
"Don't worry, I think... they will have a lot of soldiers and horses deployed in front of the west city gate, but they will not attack the city presumptuously. This time the arrow feathers have made him on guard, although in our opinion it is a It's a ridiculous precaution, but they are not attacking Ximen after all." Shi Jin paused, looked back at Shi Qian's anxious eyes and then said: "Under the guise of attacking the city in front of the West Gate, they will arrange another strong force. Come and attack our other gate,"
"Ah, brother, which gate are they going to attack?" Shi Qian was frightened when he heard this. The division of officers and soldiers to attack was originally what everyone in Shaohua Mountain was most worried about, but this time without arrow feathers, it was even more worrying. The thing is, Shi Qian listened to what Shi Jin said so clearly. Since he could predict the enemy's attack tactics, he must have had a good idea of which gate the enemy would attack from, otherwise there would be such a fatal military maneuver. In front of him, there was no shadow on Shi Jin's brow.
However, Shi Jin did not directly answer Shi Qian's worries, but just shook his head. Shi Qian felt chilled after seeing this. There were only so many people in the city, and it was not easy just to guard the west gate. If the officers and soldiers If we divide our forces to attack the other three gates, then there will be extra manpower in the city to go around for rescue, and they will only be exhausted, and in the end they will be fooled around by the officers and soldiers outside the city, so... what should we do?
"If I knew, wouldn't I become a semi-immortal Shi?" Shi Jin said with a smile. Seeing Shi Qian's frown, he pulled out the plan in his heart and said, "But you don't have to worry. In this case, although we don't know which gate he is attacking, we can take the initiative to pick a gate for them to facilitate their attack."
"Brother, please tell me if you have any clever ideas. We can't even defend ourselves. I don't believe you are going to take the initiative to find a door for them to facilitate the enemy." When Shi Qian heard what Shi Jin said, he knew that Shi Jin was not If you really sincerely want to provide convenience to the officers and soldiers, they must be ironic, and there must be a clever plan in it.
"I have already chosen a gate for them, which is the south gate tower farthest from the officers and soldiers camp. When the time comes, we only need to place suspects at the west gate tower and guard the south gate alone. I will I have a clever plan," Shi Jin said and smiled.
After Shi Qian heard this, he was still confused and didn't know what Shi Jin was planning. However, the eldest brother had a clever plan at hand, so naturally he couldn't go wrong in this battle.
"Report..." A messenger boy rushed up to the city tower at this moment. His expression was very anxious. He knelt on one knee and immediately reported: "Master, there is a large group of people dressed as officers and soldiers gathered behind the city tower. Headed by He calls himself Di Yan and says he is the head of the family."
"It's just the right time." When Shi Jin heard this, he took one last look in the direction of the distant officers and soldiers, then immediately turned around and said to Shi Qian: "Let's go down and meet them."
So, Shi Jin and Shi Qian quickly walked down the west city gate tower. Di Yan and Liu Quantian were currently lining up under the west city gate tower. They saw Shi Jin coming down from the gate tower in person from a distance. They were flattered and immediately waved the front of their armors. , immediately knelt on one knee on the ground, everyone clasped their fists and shouted loudly: "Master,"
"Brothers, please stand up," Shi Jin said, taking three steps at a time and running in front of everyone. He stretched out his arms to first help Liu Sanye up, and then Di Yan, and then everyone slowed down. Stand up slowly.
Shi Jin stood two steps back and looked at the troops led by Liu Sanye. At this time, he put on the silver helmet and silver armor, and there was no trace of the gangster spirit of the market. They were all capable and strong. When you look at their appearance, A master of killing enemies, he nodded his head and said hello.
At this moment, Di Yan took a step forward, clasped his fists with both hands and said: "Brother, with the help of Mr. Liu, we have saved a lot of effort. As expected, there are a lot of armors hidden in the Huang family's cellar, and there are also two arrows and feathers confiscated. Qianzhi, now I have arranged the brothers from the two battalions on both sides of the street in front of the South City Gate according to your instructions."
"Well done, thank you everyone. Although the officers and soldiers were defeated just now, they will soon regroup and attack again at night. Let's go up to the city tower and carefully plan a strategy to retreat from the enemy. We will spend this night In one fell swoop, he uprooted all the officers and soldiers, and completely shattered the encirclement." After Shi Jin said this, everyone responded and went up to the city tower together.
