Yuan Xi was already worried about the battle outside the city, but now that he heard Tian Feng say that he and the others had been tricked again, he couldn't sit still, and wanted to know what happened to them.
Tian Feng glanced at Yuan Xi, and at the same time looked at Tadun who was also very concerned about this matter.
"Hey, we were too careless. Liu Zheng hasn't been attacking the city with all his strength these days, and he didn't find any clues."
The first thousand and eighty-five chapters out of the city to fight
"Liu Zheng didn't go all out to attack the city, isn't it because he hasn't mobilized enough soldiers and horses. He only has 6 to [-] people outside the city, which is about the same as ours, so he doesn't have the confidence to attack the city."
After Tian Feng finished speaking, Tadun immediately explained.
He expressed his opinion on why Liu Zheng did not attack the city with all his strength, but adopted such a slow and slow strategy of delay.
Tian Feng heard Tadun say this, but he was not wrong.
"Looking at it this way, it is indeed correct. After all, when there is no absolute advantage in military strength, it is also a good plan to adopt easing measures to slowly consume the patience of our defenders, but we seem to have forgotten that Liu Zheng is personally conquering this time! "
Tian Feng pronounced the words Yujiaqianzheng a little more emphatically.
"Since Liu Zheng is the imperial conquest, how could he not mobilize more soldiers and horses? Do you think Liu Zheng only has 6 people around here?"
After being reminded by Tian Feng, Yuan Xihe Ta immediately understood something.
His face sank, realizing the seriousness of the matter.
"Mr. Tian Feng, what you mean is that Liu Zheng has summoned more soldiers and horses here, but none of those soldiers and horses have been dispatched to Hejian County?"
Yuan Xi asked Tian Feng a question.
Tian Feng nodded.
"According to the information sent back by our previous spies, Liu Zheng definitely dispatched more than [-] troops to Jizhou in the north this time."
"However, we have only seen [-] to [-] soldiers and horses around Lecheng County these days. Where did the other half go?"
"At first, I didn't pay attention to it, but just now, young master, you mentioned Zhao Yun, and General Tadun said that Liu Zheng's cavalry didn't seem to show up for a few days. I just remembered that Liu Zheng may have already noticed Yanzhou. changes in troop strength."
"He set up this game on purpose. The person he wants to deal with is not us, but Liu Beijun from Yanzhou!"
Tian Feng spoke out his deduction in one breath.
Through these few details, it was immediately judged that Liu Zheng's battle in Hejian County was just a feint.What really needs to be decided is the battle at the junction of Jizhou and Yanzhou.
"Ah, if you put it that way, it makes sense for Liu Zheng's soldiers and horses to feign an attack outside the city. They didn't plan to attack successfully at all, they just wanted to attract our attention. The real army has long been The troops have been dispatched to deal with Liu Bei."
Ta Dun slapped his forehead, and when he understood, he immediately fought in fright and anger.
Surprised that Liu Zheng paid such attention, angry that he only reacted now.
Yuan Xi also became nervous. Faced with the current situation, he also panicked, not knowing what to do. He looked at Tian Feng with a sad face, counting on Tian Feng to give him a suggestion.
Tian Feng did not speak at all, but after seeing Ta Dun and Yuan Xi like this, he made a decisive decision and gave his own suggestion.
"Young master, the most urgent thing is that we are not going to sit here and wait for death. We are going out of the city to fight Liu Zheng."
"Ok?"
"Why did Mr. Tian Feng say that?"
"It's been a few days. If Zhao Yun got the news that Liu Zheng's attack was successful, his men and horses must have taken action. If Liu Zheng was unprepared, Zhao Yun suddenly launched an attack and attacked Jizhou, maybe It will work wonders.”
"But now that we know that Liu Zheng has made plans in advance, maybe this is deliberately luring Zhao Yun into the bait, so if Zhao Yun launches an attack on Jizhou again, the chance of success is not great."
"If my guess is correct, Zhao Yun's army will be defeated in a short time. After Liu Zheng's soldiers and horses wiped out Zhao Yun's army, they will definitely gather again in Hejian County."
"At that time, our situation will be dire. Instead of sitting here and waiting to die, we might as well take advantage of Liu Zheng's army not here, and we will attack him first. If we are lucky, we can take this opportunity to severely defeat Liu Zheng! "
Tian Feng first told Yuan Xi why he did this.
Yuan Xi and Ta Dun nodded, they both agreed with Tian Feng's words.
Later, in order to give Yuan Xi and Ta Dun more confidence, Tian Feng continued.
"Also, the young master has sent messengers to the Liaodong area to bring those Xianbei people here. If you calculate the time, it is estimated that they will kill them in just one or two days."
"If we go out of the city to fight Liu Zheng's army at this time, even if we are defeated, we can still wait for reinforcements from the Xianbei people. There is no need to be afraid at all."
Tian Feng said so, then this battle is very necessary for Yuan Xi.
Everyone is happy if they win the battle, and they can take advantage of this opportunity to defeat Liu Zheng.
It doesn't matter if they lose, anyway, their reinforcements are coming soon, and they can wait until the reinforcements arrive to boost their morale again.
Having said that, Yuan Xi no longer has any opinion on the soldiers and horses who went out of the city to fight in close quarters with Liu Zheng.
"Okay, then follow what Mr. Tian Feng said, and immediately go out of the city to fight Liu Zheng's army!"
Yuan Xi made a decision.
Tian Feng thought it was not too late, and immediately urged Ta Dun again.
"If that's the case, then it's not too late. General Tadun, can you lead the army in person, charge out from the south gate, lead [-] cavalry, and smash Liu Zheng's army. If you win this battle, Liu Zheng will definitely be able to throw away his helmet. First!"
Ta Dun was moved by Tian Feng's persuasion, and he was a little moved.
Being able to defeat Liu Zheng is something that Tadun would have dreamed of.
He nodded immediately and decided to have a fight with Yuan Xibo.
"Okay, then I'll go down and prepare. Give me an hour to gather manpower. At that time, you will go to the tower to supervise the battle and dispatch troops. I will lead the troops out of the city and take Liu Zheng's army directly." Go to camp!"
Clasping his fists together, he left directly after speaking, and immediately went down to get ready.
After some discussions in the hall, Yuan Xi and Tian Feng didn't dare to stay in the hall for too long, and they also wanted to mobilize their own troops immediately to prepare to cooperate.
Half an hour passed quickly.
Outside Lecheng County.
Liu Zheng looked at the sky. It was now afternoon and the sun was about to set.
The sun was not so strong anymore. Tai Shici led the army, and was about to continue to follow Liu Zheng's instructions, go to Lecheng County to call for battle, and then ordered the trebuchets and archers to simply shoot a few rounds, and let it go.
But this time, when Tai Shici led the team out, he obviously felt something was wrong.
On the city tower in Lecheng County, there are a few more soldiers standing than before.
Just these people alone made Tai Shici feel that there seemed to be some changes in the city.
Chapter 86 The Horn of the Enemy Attack
Although the guards on the city tower had changed, Tai Shici didn't take it seriously.
Over the past few days, the defenders of the city have no intention of confronting them head-on, and they are blindly evading. Except for the catapults coming out and bombing, they have expressed it. At other times, they even ignored the call for battle under the city.
This had to make Tai Shici look down on the defenders in the city.
As usual, he came out of the camp and walked to Lecheng County.
"Yuan Xi, why don't you go out of the city and surrender? How long can you last with food in this city?"
"Do you have to wait until the last minute to come out?"
As for people like Tai Shici, they knew that Zhang Xi had already burned the food and grass that Ta Dun and others had robbed.
So everyone knew that Yuan Xi in the city didn't have much food.
It is precisely because of this that Tai Shici and others will understand that Yuan Xi and others' current defense is futile.
But it was also because they knew that Yuan Xi had no food and grass in the city, so they arranged a lot of defensive measures outside the city, fearing that Yuan Xi, who was in a hurry, would come out of the city in the last few days.
Tai Shici stood outside the city and shouted a few words towards the tower.
Sure enough, there was no response from the tower.
After cursing and yelling at the tower, he planned to go back and let his soldiers and horses prepare to shoot a few rounds of arrows at the tower.
But today, after he ordered the archer to shoot a round of arrows towards the tower.
The gate of Lecheng County was opened at this time.
creak.
Then there was a rumble.
The huge city gate was pushed.
The heavy iron door opened slowly.
Tai Shici was taken aback when he heard this voice.
For a moment, I really thought that what I said just now to persuade Yuan Xi to surrender had moved Yuan Xi.
Yuan Xi was about to open the city gate and surrender.
But Tai Shici was not so stupid. He knew that if the other party wanted to surrender, he would never open the door directly like this. He responded a few words on the tower and discussed the details. This is the real way to surrender.
There is only one possibility to directly open the city gate in this way.
That is to attack Tai Shici and others outside the city.
"No, enemy attack!"
When Tai Shici realized that the people from Lecheng County were about to come out of the city, he immediately yelled.
He kicked the guard next to him with his foot.
"What are you doing here in a daze, blowing the horn!"
The soldier was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly let out a cry. After he realized it, he immediately asked someone to blow the horn.
The horn of the enemy's attack sounded.
Immediately spread to Daying here.
Liu Zheng, who was still discussing the war in Yecheng with Guo Jia, suddenly heard the horn.
I was surprised.
"Huh? Fengxiao, listen to this voice."
Guo Jia followed Liu Zheng's guidance and heard the sound of horns from afar.
After hearing it clearly, his face darkened.
He immediately replied to Liu Zheng.
"Your Majesty, is this the sound of our army's horn?"
"It seems that an enemy is attacking!"
Although the two heard the voice, they didn't panic at all.
This is their base camp, not to mention the tens of thousands of troops around them, the two troops stationed in Liu Zheng's base camp alone are enough to make other people dare not approach.
Stationed around Liu Zheng's camp, in addition to the trap camps of Lu Bu and Commander Gao Shun, there is also Lu Qiling's women's camp.
These two soldiers and horses, even in the face of thousands of troops, can protect Liu Zheng from killing thousands of troops.
What's more, there are Jinyiwei guards in Liu Zheng's headquarters camp, so it's very safe.
Even if there are some enemies around, these enemies are not so easy to kill Liu Zheng.
"At this time, there are still people coming to attack. Fengxiao might as well guess whose troops are here to kill them?"
Not only was Liu Zheng not worried, but he had the time to guess with Guo Jia who the people who killed them around the camp were.
After hearing Liu Zheng's words, Guo Jia smiled lightly.
He wasn't even surprised by this.
"Your Majesty, you're just looking down on me, Guo Jia, so you don't need to guess?"
"The person who can cause murder at this time, besides Yuan Xi in this city, is anyone else. Your Majesty can't just think that Zhao Yun from Yanzhou came here to kill him."
This was indeed the case, at such a time, the only one who could let Tai Shici blow the horn was Yuan Xi from Lecheng County.
"Haha, Feng Xiao, you are really smart, then guess again, why did Yuan Xi leave the city at this time?"
"It's easy, too, for two reasons."
"Oh? Which two reasons?"
Liu Zheng looked at Guo Jia with great interest.
