Looking at the outside, Kato Hime decided on the spot.
Don't be fooled easily.
Although it looked like there were only a few thousand people outside the city, Kato Hime believed that Daxia's generals were not fools.
A country that could annex two powerful countries in succession would be so stupid as to send only a few thousand people to attack the Candle Kingdom?
Although the Zhu Kingdom's national strength is not strong, it is definitely not something that can be conquered by just a few thousand people.
After thinking about everything, Kato Hime ordered the deputy general below: "Don't go out for now, wait until I find out all the information clearly."
At this moment, the Daxia army outside the city gate was still cursing. Although the deputy general couldn't swallow this breath, after all, the governor had spoken, so he could only nod helplessly.
After leaving the city wall, Kato Hime returned to her camp.
In the tent, there was a woman wearing a white gauze skirt. She immediately leaned over and cuddled up to Kato-hime.
"Practice?~"
However, at this moment, Kato Hime showed no interest at all and just waved her hand impatiently.
"Don't make trouble, don't practice."
"Okay~" the woman responded helplessly, and then came to the side silently.
Kato Hime didn't say much after seeing the woman leaving. She just picked up a map and started thinking about it in detail.
There are three gates in the entire city ring, namely the east gate, west gate and north gate.
But now these three city gates are surrounded by Daxia troops.
According to visual inspection, there seemed to be more than a thousand people outside each city gate.
But as long as Kato Hime doesn't have a fever, there are only a thousand people who won't believe this is true.
"Humph, you are still young if you want to hide it from me."
While talking, Kato Hime picked up the map and headed to the command room in a hurry.
There, several lieutenants were already waiting, waiting for Kato-hime to come and give orders.
Kato Hime came to the front, pointed to a few doors and began to analyze.
"Daxia must be prepared for such a menacing attack, so they definitely don't have just a few thousand people."
"Well, I think so too."
A deputy general below nodded.
Soon Kato Hime continued to speak: "So, we should first find out how many people they came."
Hearing this, several lieutenants expressed embarrassment.
"But they have occupied three exits, and no one can leave the city at this moment."
Obviously, this has become the most serious problem facing the generals of the Zhu Kingdom.
If there were really only a thousand people in front of each city gate, his army of more than ten thousand would casually kill them like pigs.
But that was obviously impossible, and Kato Hime did not dare to joke with the lives of more than 10,000 of her soldiers.
In desperation, Kato Hime could only temporarily order a strict defense and wait for the Prime Minister to come up with a solution in the future before making plans.
In this way, in the next few days, the troops led by Chen Heishan would yell and curse at the gate of Huancheng every day.
As for Kato Hime inside the ringed city, she always stayed behind closed doors.
Although a few days have passed and there is still no way to obtain the specific number of Daxia's army, he did not lose the city.
Although there is no merit, there is no fault either.
At the same time, Xia Yan, who was far away in Nanling, was still receiving information from Chen Heishan every day.
However, there is not much change in the daily information.
On the first day, the city was tightly surrounded, and no one entered or left.
On the second day, they surrounded the city tightly and no one entered or left.
On the third day, the city was tightly surrounded, and no one came in or out.
The fourth day...
…
The seventh day...
Looking at the daily battle reports, Xia Yan's tense heart gradually relaxed.
From this point of view, Chen Heishan is still relatively stable.
Dare to use five thousand men to surround a city. How could Fengxiao not come up with such a magical strategy?
Of course, Kato Hime is also amazing.
We could easily defeat them, but we were surrounded for seven or eight days without getting out.
But Xia Yan also understood that the reason why they were able to be surrounded for seven or eight days was probably because they didn't know how many soldiers Chen Heishan had.
There is no doubt that Kato Hime will be able to figure out the specific situation as time goes by.
Not to mention anything else, just by asking sentries to observe the fireworks and the daily number of supply trucks, we can roughly estimate the specific number of soldiers.
Xia Yan believed that Kato Hime must have calculated it at this moment.
However, due to caution, I have been unable to take action.
To be fair, Xia Yan certainly hopes that Kato-hime will be cautious as long as possible.
Because as long as this is done, I can get through this mission period without risk.
But he understood that this might just be his fantasy.
Even if you are a fool, you should understand the real situation in two days...
Sure enough, three days later...
"What a jerk, I seem to have been tricked!"
Kato-hime angrily threw a piece of military information on the table, with a flash of cruelty in her eyes.
"Well, after nearly ten days of observation, we have now determined that there are only a few thousand people here in Daxia. According to my estimate, it is only about five thousand at most."
These words were like a thorn piercing deeply into Kato-hime's heart, making her instantly furious.
"Damn, I was besieged by five thousand people for ten days?!"
At this moment, not only Kato-hime, but also a group of lieutenants below also looked as if they had eaten ten kilograms of Ollie.
The Daxia Dynasty existed on the same level as the Zhu Kingdom in the past.
Even at a certain point, Zhuguo's strength is slightly higher than that of Daxia.
But who would have thought that just because Daxia occupied Xi and Yu, the soldiers of Zhu State instantly lost the confidence to fight.
Even if only 5,000 people came, I didn't dare to send out manpower to deal with it.
What a shame and a big humiliation, what a shame and a big humiliation!
"Don't say anything anymore. Anyone who comes will follow me and kill them!"
After being scolded for more than ten days, these lieutenants could no longer bear it. Now that they received the news that they could finally lead their troops out, they all looked like Monkey Brother without the golden hoop.
One after another, they rode on their horses and shouted: "Aww!"
On the other side, Chen Heishan, who was smoking a flower and singing a ditty at the moment, was dumbfounded when he saw the person rushing out.
Damn it, you can kill one or two of them with random arrows, but what if there are so many of them all at once?
Seeing the army getting closer and closer to him, Chen Heishan remained silent and sluggish.
I have never seen such a scene before.
Although he served as a general for a period of time when he was young, what was his situation like back then?
There are a total of 8,000 troops. After removing some of the city defenses and some of the palace guards, there are only about 5,000 movable troops in total.
And among these five thousand people, there are about a dozen generals like himself.
In general, apart from this time when I was at my highest, I had only commanded hundreds of people.
Looking at the army getting closer and closer, Chen Heishan only had one thought wandering in his mind.
So, who can tell me now, what should I do in this situation?
If he could still learn the legendary sound transmission through the air, I would probably add another sentence.
Well, I'm waiting online, it's quite urgent. This chapter has been completed!
