Governor please stay

Chapter 230 An Lushan gave me a like

Boom!

Lightning flashed and thunder rumbled, and the Sui water surged and ran continuously, and the mud and swamp on the bank were flooded, as if it was hard to tell whether it was river water or rain water.

Under the city of Yongqiu, Fei Mu was drenched in the rain, looking at the top of the city where there was no fire at all, he felt as if he was standing in front of a ghost city.

"Send the order to go down and set up camp."

Fei Mu shouted loudly to the messenger, but he still braved the heavy rain and looked towards the top of the city, where there seemed to be a figure flickering.Against the dark red sky, ghostly figures stood on the city wall, and those straight figures could be faintly seen through the female wall.

"General, it's raining heavily, why don't you take advantage of the rain to attack the city? The city wall of Yongqiu is not high."

Braving the heavy rain, the lieutenant shouted to Fei Mu.The noise is too loud, and the other party can't hear it at all when speaking normally.

Fei Mu pointed to the wooden shelves erected one by one on the far side of the city wall, shook his head, and said nothing.What are these wooden frames used for? In fact, he knew it well, but saying it had no effect other than lowering the morale of the army on his side.

The lieutenant thought that the enemy was defenseless, but in fact, it was the opposite. The opponent extinguished the torch, making himself blind to reality and unwilling to take risks. It was extremely clever.

However, can he tell the lieutenant general that Yongqiu's guard is very good?What's the use of saying it?Originally, the morale was already very low when they marched here in a hurry. If there is a sudden attack, it's hard to say who will take care of who!
……

In the signing room of the gate tower of Yongqiu City, there was no fire.Liu Yishou, Yu Wentai, and Wang Wei sat withered on the stone pier in the room, all without saying a word.

"My lord, wouldn't it be a bit hypocritical for us to behave like this?"

Wang Wei's voice came from the darkness, and his expression could not be seen clearly.

"It's really a bit hypocritical. I'm afraid that Fei Mu will attack the city, so I don't do anything, just put out the fire and see how they will arrange it."

Liu Yishou is also a little uncertain, it's just a gamble anyway.With such a heavy downpour, the defenders of the city can't use bows and arrows, kerosene, etc.However, for the attacking party, if they could not keep their eyes open when climbing the city wall, how could they fight this battle?
There was no way to beat drums and gold, and no way to send messages with firelight. Liu Yishou felt that Fei Mu's attack on the city would be futile.Ma Gan beat the wolf with fear at both ends. He had already decided to play an empty city plan before, but now it was too late to say anything.

At this moment, a man covered in water came to the door and shouted to Liu Yishou and others: "Commander, the enemy army has withdrawn from Yongqiu City and set up camp five miles away. Shall we pursue?"

"Explore again!"

Liu Yishou said two words calmly.

After the messenger left, he asked the two of them, "What do you think, should we pursue or not?"

"Chase!"

"Chase!"

Both Yu Wentai and Wang Wei agreed that now is the perfect time to pursue.

"Didn't you never get tired of the fight against local tyrants that I taught you to play last time? If we were playing poker with Fei Mu now, and the game has just begun, would you play Wang Zong at the very beginning?"

Liu Yishou asked back.

Going out of town to chase now is like a football defender leaving his defensive position and running a few steps to steal.If you don't grab it, then the defense line will always move back, which can theoretically prevent the opponent from breaking through.

Needless to say, if the steal is successful, it will be able to fight back immediately.But what about a failed steal?Once it fails, the opponent will break through the defense line, and the subsequent situation will be passive!
"It's impossible to play king bomb at the beginning. If you play king bomb at the beginning, then the opponent will know that you have no way out, and there is no more powerful card behind you."

Yu Wentai said in a deep voice, although he is more inclined to gamble now.Why do you say that, because Fei Mu came from afar and his foothold is not yet stable.And it came earlier than expected.

So he must have marched in a hurry, and the soldiers were exhausted physically.Chasing now has a good chance of winning.Of course, Yu Wentai also admitted that what Liu Yishou said made sense.Although this man is young, his reputation is definitely not in vain. He is very smart in strategizing.

"So, we don't need to take risks. As long as we hold Fei Mu here, we can win. There is no need to be impulsive for the so-called chance of victory in front of us.

Peng Le's card can only be played at critical moments.Now, it's just the beginning. "

Liu Yishou had a contemptuous smile on his lips, but it was a pity that the light in the room was so poor that neither Wang Wei nor Yu Wentai, who were sitting beside him, noticed it.

"By the way, choose dozens of loud voices. Once Fei Mu leads troops to attack the city, he will stand on the top of the city and curse desperately. I will write the curse words tomorrow. Wang Wei, you teach those people to shout, um, never He started watching women take a bath when he was five years old."

As if he didn't think it was enough, Liu Yishou added another sentence.

Yu Wentai and Wang Wei suddenly felt chills in their backs. That figure in the darkness must be hiding a cunning old fox inside.

……

Two days later, the sky was clear and cloudless.

Fei Mu led his troops to surround Yongqiu City. He estimated that there were at most [-] defenders in the city, and they should not have the ability to fight back.

"Fei Mu! The whole village died when you were born! You bastard! Scum! You peeked at women's baths at the age of five, and stole widows at the age of ten!

You are a family slave with three surnames, you are a despicable and shameless person who has a milk and is a mother.One day in Luoyang, blood flowed into rivers, all thanks to you, you murderous executioner, scum..."

At the head of Yongqiu city, dozens of people shouted in unison towards the city.

Below the city, Fei Mu rode on his horse, raised his eyebrows, and held the rein tightly with both hands, without saying a word.

Being scolded like this and still not doing it?Fei Mu's concentration is fine!

On the top of Yongqiu City, Wang Wei whispered to Liu Yishou: "Master, it seems that Fei Mu is very calm."

Really calm.

Liu Yishou nodded slightly and said, "The purpose of scolding him is not to anger him, but to imply to him that we are very guilty."

Don't we have a guilty conscience?

For a moment Wang Wei was speechless.

Boom boom boom boom boom boom!The sound of beating drums sounded under the city, very hurried, more and more anxious.

"It's just a trial during the day, and the main event is at night. Let's go to the signing room to rest first."

Liu Yishou yawned, as if he had been crazy with several girls last night.

In fact, he just spent most of the night thinking about how to restrain Fei Mu.That's right, he didn't expect to wipe out the army led by Fei Mu with the strength of Yongqiu City.

It is said to be 20, but the actual number should be no less than [-] depending on the scale.

The siege battle has begun!

Before the war, Liu Yishou discovered that there were many swamps nearby, so he ordered people to collect a lot of wormwood and dry it in the sun.At this moment, the defenders mixed fire oil with wormwood, ignited it and threw it down the city.Many soldiers of Fei Mu who were climbing the ladder were burnt to death and rolled down from a height.

The bows and arrows at the top of the city greeted the city without money, and the soldiers of Fei Mu's army didn't attack the city with chariots and smashed into the city gate.

When the sun went down and night fell, there were corpses everywhere in the city of Yongqiu. Sure enough, as Liu Yishou said, they were well prepared, and it was impossible to make any progress in attacking the city during the day.

At night, in Fei Mu's army camp's large Chinese tent, Fei Mu, who already had a gray beard, walked up and down the tent, feeling inexplicably restless in his heart.

"General, the defenders of Yongqiu seem to have been prepared for a long time. We have made no progress in attacking the city several times, and we have rarely even reached the top of the city. Should we besiege them for a few days? Then we will build some siege equipment, or wait for the follow-up When your troops arrive, attack the city."

The lieutenant said cautiously.Since the last time he killed a prisoner, Fei Mu had calmed him down.According to some traditions, it is usually done by tying stones to the captives and throwing them into the river.

But what Fei Mu did was to stab the captives to death before throwing them into the river.

A small detail made the lieutenant full of awe, more fear.

"Be careful, the enemy may attack the camp tonight!"

Fei Mu said in a deep voice.

"Don't worry, general, the last general has someone ambushed not far from Yongqiu. Once someone leaves the city, even a messenger, they won't be able to escape from our grasp!"

The deputy general said with a little color.

Fei Mu nodded slightly, noncommittal.He always felt that the guards in Yongqiu City seemed to have known that someone would bring a large army to attack them, and they were well prepared.

He retreated his lieutenant general and his own soldiers, thinking about the city defense map of Suiyang City alone.He didn't pay attention to Yongqiu at all, even if the defenders were wiped out, it would not be a commendable thing.As long as Suiyang is not won, then everything is out of the question.

An hour later, the lieutenant came to the handsome tent in a hurry and muttered something to Fei Mu.The two came to a huge military tent together, only to see a scarecrow wearing a Wei Jun military uniform on the ground, with arrows sticking out of it!

"what happened?"

Fei Mu's face was so gloomy that water dripped out.

"General, about a few hundred people descended from the top of Yongqiu City along the rope. After we found out, we took the crossbowmen and shot them fiercely. After that... that's it."

The lieutenant said with a blushing face that he was ashamed to be teased by the enemy.

"The other scarecrows were lifted up by ropes, and this is the only one left, right?"

Holding the hilt of the saber in his hand, Fei Mu was so angry that he wanted to chop off the lieutenant in front of him.

"Return to the general... I'm afraid it is. The other scarecrows should have been recycled. Looking at the cut in the rope, it should be left for us on purpose."

Hearing this, Fei Mu looked at the incision where the scarecrow was hanging from the rope, and it was really neat, it was cut by a knife.He folded his arms and fell into thought.

"If this happens tomorrow, don't let it go."

Fei Mu said viciously, he had already lost his composure, and was no longer as calm as when he was scolded during the day.

"Here!"

The lieutenant watched Fei Mu leave cautiously, sighed softly, and secretly sighed in his heart: This guard of Yongqiu City is really a horse-riding general.

……

Hundreds of scarecrows, each with dozens of arrows on them, were neatly placed on the school field in Yongqiu City.A group of soldiers were arranging arrows, all of them were smiling, admiring Liu Yishou's methods.

"This Fei Mu is a fool..."

Wang Wei felt a little baffled.

A scarecrow can swindle back tens of thousands of arrows, and Liu Yishou is really good, with his imaginative moves, he firmly suppresses Fei Mu.

"Fei Mu is not stupid. On the contrary, it is because he is smart and vigilant that he made such a mistake. He thought that we would go to attack the camp at night, so he lay in ambush for a while. I just played him for a while."

Liu Yishou said calmly.

"Uh, what if Fei Mu doesn't fall for it?"

Wang Wei couldn't help asking.

"If we don't fall for it, we can just take the scarecrow back, and there is no loss."

Liu Yishou gave Wang Wei a contemptuous look, as if to say: Brother, this is all basic practice.

"That's right."

"Tomorrow, and at night, put the scarecrow down."

Liu Yishou said something that seemed stupid.

"Our arrows are well-prepared. Most of the ordnance in Suiyang has been transported to Yongqiu by water." Wang Wei personally supervised this matter, and he asked curiously.

It seems that there is no need to make such a fuss, after all, they have no shortage of arrows, at least not now.

"You do not understand."

Liu Yishou looked at the soldiers carrying away the bundles of arrows and said, "We just want to make Fei Mu suspicious, and don't know what we will do next. Once this goal is achieved, that's all. The rest, It’s not something we can control.”

……

The next day, Fei Mu continued to attack the city, and the city defense site of Yongqiu City was commanded by Yu Wentai.He dispatched calmly, let Han Xian lead the reserve team to support wherever Fei Mu attacked.

But Peng Le and his thousand elite cavalry continued to stand still.

At the end of the day, Fei Mu looked at the city and sighed, there was nothing he could do!

At night, Wang Wei commanded the soldiers to put the scarecrows down, but was again "ambushed" by Fei Mu's army, and these scarecrows were recovered again. Wang Wei ordered a scarecrow full of arrows to be thrown over the wall. The fight is over again.

In a certain military tent of Fei Mu's army camp, Fei Mu looked at the scarecrow full of arrows in front of him, and his facial muscles twitched.

He had some doubts in his heart, didn't the defenders of Yongqiu City first use false moves, and then take advantage of the slack on the side of the siege to take advantage of the opportunity to sneak attack?

"General, the enemy army seems to be... this time also a scarecrow. Shall we set up an ambush tomorrow?"

The lieutenant asked a little aggrieved.

"No, tomorrow they will repeat the old trick, let's let it go. When they let people down again, don't shoot arrows, just rush up and chop!"

Fei Mu said viciously.

"However, if there are cavalry from their side rushing out of the city, we will be in danger! They can also throw fierce fire oil from the top of the city."

The deputy general's basic skills are still very solid, and he is very considerate.

"Unless they have a traitor on our side! Otherwise, how can they judge so accurately! Pass down the order, except for the team you lead, the rest of the people, leave the camp and be decisive!"

In fact, Fei Mu had also considered whether there were spies on his side, so he had to judge carefully.

……

North of Luoyang, on the north bank of the Yellow River, at the head of Beizhong City.Chen Qingzhi squinted his eyes and looked at the army under the city, and estimated that there were about 1 people.

He frowned slightly, always feeling as if something was wrong.Logically speaking, the enemy army should not have only this number of troops, right?Others don't know how Er Zhurong is, but he knows it in his heart. He has done his homework along the way and knows the situation in Wei's military circle.

Er Zhurong raised his arms and shouted, not to mention 10 people, at least an elite team of 1 to [-] people came to the decisive battle, it would not be a big problem.How come there are only [-] people under the city?
"Captain, General Wei Jun sent someone to enter the city to negotiate."

Ma Fo-nian said in a low voice.

Chen Qingzhi shook his head with a chuckle and said: "The gang below are afraid that they want to drive us all to extinction. Wouldn't it be ridiculous to negotiate. Send an order to keep 1000 people to guard the city, and the rest will follow me to fight!"
