Be Humble King

Chapter 225 Countermeasures

As a general, you must keep calm at all times, so that you can have a calm and rational judgment.

"Then what are we going to do now?" Pan Feng asked softly looking at the calm Hao Zhao.

"Wait, defend the city!" Hao Zhao said with a serious face, showing a cold look in his eyes.

I want to defend Yuancheng, and the enemy army also understands that they have to buy time, they will definitely launch a general offensive tomorrow at the latest, and they must take Yuancheng at all costs.

And what I have to do is to hold on to Yuan City, waiting for the return of His Highness.

Afterwards, Hao Zhao asked everyone to take time to rest, because he knew that since the enemy army wanted to lure them to attack, they probably would not attack again in a short time.

What's more, when they are prepared now, they must not go out of the city. They can only find favorable opportunities in the battle!

At night, the starry sky is twinkling, the breeze caresses gently, and there are bugs screaming outside the city from time to time.

Time passed slowly, the night was getting darker and darker, the surrounding weather was getting colder and colder, and the entire barracks of the Kuixing City army was quiet.

Only the surrounding bonfires danced from time to time, and the soldiers yawned lightly, with a relaxed look on their faces.

At this time, in Liang Yangfan's tent in the middle of the barracks, Liang Yangfan and two generals were waiting for Yuancheng's sneak attack, while the other generals had already commanded the army to ambush.

However, when the moonlight shines through the tent, the hour is past.

Liang Yangfan sighed slightly, while the other two generals also showed disappointment.

Sure enough, the city defender who can keep King Qin behind should not be underestimated.

After Liang Yangfan sighed slightly, he couldn't say how much he was disappointed, and immediately said to the two generals beside him: "Notify the first batch of troops immediately, and now go to feint to attack Yuancheng. After an hour of feint attack, wait for half an hour." Shichen, another batch will follow, I want everyone in Yuancheng to have no rest, keep tense, and wait until tomorrow morning to take down Yuancheng in one fell swoop!"

"yes!"

The two generals said sharply.

Immediately, a general led an army of 50,000 to dispatch, and quietly arrived three miles away from Yuancheng in the dark.

Immediately, the beating of drums shook the sky, and the sound of cold horns sounded, waking up the soldiers on the edge of the city one after another, and the soldiers who had been on guard on the top of the city, when they saw the army rushing towards them with dense flames in the distance, they immediately panicked. shouted:

"The enemy has attacked the city!"

"The enemy has attacked the city!"

"The enemy has attacked the city!"

Immediately, many soldiers went to the top of the city one after another, and the feather arrows coming from the opposite shop sank into the city wall one after another.

When Hao Zhao and other generals stood on the top of the city and watched the opposing army rushing towards them, they immediately ordered the defenders to shoot arrows.

However, when the enemy army was about to rush to the edge of the city with shields and ladders and other siege machines, and Hao Zhao was about to let the soldiers pour gold juice and roll logs, suddenly there was another command to withdraw troops in the distance, and the enemy troops below the city retreated one after another!

Ok?

At this time, Hao Zhao, Pan Feng and other generals defending the city agreed:

What does enemy mean?

Immediately after the soldiers put down their bows and arrows and relaxed their faces, suddenly the group of enemy troops outside the city rushed over again!

The soldiers at the top of the city looked nervously at the enemy below, and shot feather arrows in their hands one after another.

However, it didn't take long before they retreated again!

However, before they could relax, the enemy army came again!

This battle continued for an hour.

At this time, the soldiers on the top of the city were nervous and relaxed. They were nervous that the enemy army was going to attack Yuancheng, but they were relaxed and the enemy army retreated every time they approached the city wall.

When this group of troops retreated again, this time they really retreated back.

At this time, the soldiers on the top of the city cheered, thinking that they had really repelled the enemy army that came tonight.

At this time, the general guarding the city saw something was wrong, and immediately asked Hao Zhaodao: "General, why did the enemy attack Yuancheng like this this time?

What's the point of them doing this? "

Immediately, all the generals looked at Hao Zhao, only to see Hao Zhao said solemnly: "Have you seen the number of people attacking this time?"

Pan Feng looked at the traces of the previous battle below, and said directly: "The number of troops who came to attack the city this time is at most 50,000 soldiers and horses. They are pretending to attack Yuancheng!"

"Feint!"

When everyone froze, Hao Zhao said solemnly: "That's right, they probably didn't want to let our army rest, and deliberately came to pretend to attack Yuancheng. You see, they only have 50,000 troops this time, which is just enough to restrict us. They have an army of more than 200,000, and they will probably divide the 200,000 troops into several groups to attack the city. This is a conspiracy, an upright conspiracy, and the enemy wants us to have no rest tonight!"

Hao Zhao and the others felt very helpless. There were too many enemy troops, so they could directly harass themselves. If they really had 50,000 horses every time, they could only guard at the city gate, and they had 20,000 horses left. No, they can't afford it at all, even if they lose 50,000 horses, they can afford it.

What's more important now is that if they keep harassing their own army like this, keeping the soldiers in a state of tension, once they launch a general attack tomorrow, it will be difficult to defend by relying on the state of the defending army!

A general said: "General, since the enemy is a feint attack, why don't we let half of the soldiers take turns to rest, nearly 9,000 soldiers should be able to defend!"

Ok!

The general next to him nodded in agreement!

After Hao Zhao pondered for a while, his eyes lightened slightly and he said: "Now you must call all the craftsmen to make at least 5,000 scarecrows immediately and let them wear military uniforms, and then put them on the top of the city. With the cover of night, the enemy It is difficult for the army to find out whether it is true or not, and if they really send another 50,000 people to pretend to attack Yuancheng, then we will directly send 4,000 people to defend Yuancheng immediately!"

"yes!"

All the generals looked at Hao Zhao with admiration!

Immediately go down and command the soldiers to make scarecrows with the previous craftsmen. They all know that time is running out and the enemy will come soon!

However, Hao Zhao said to Pan Feng who was next to him: "General Pan Feng, I hope you will lead 10,000 soldiers out of the city to ambush this time, and the enemy will definitely send 50,000 troops to come next time, and this time we will pretend to know that they will take turns." Feint attack, and then we deliberately sent 3,000 troops to defend the city, so that the generals on the opposite side feel that they can really take down Yuancheng, and really come to attack Yuancheng. When they are attacking Yuancheng fiercely, you immediately lead the army behind Sneak attack them and defeat them!"

"yes!"

Pan Feng's eyes lit up slightly, and immediately after receiving the order, he led 10,000 soldiers out of the city secretly!

Hao Zhao stared at the direction of the enemy camp in the distance with piercing eyes. The enemy wanted to make his defenders exhausted, and he could use the night to cover up the scarecrow as the number of defenders to confuse them.

But once or twice is okay. If the enemy army finds out after a long time, the only way to ambush them at the beginning is to let them attack the mouse, and then arrange the scarecrow soldiers, which will reduce the risk of exposure!
