It's all abstract destiny, you're one emperor through the ages

Chapter 275 Military Order?A piece of waste paper!
"This is even more unlikeable."

This operation made even a person like Xiu Tu Bi, who had no control over his words, unable to help but become speechless.

Why did he do it in front of the victim when he was framed?

You can be so arrogant if you are an emperor! ?
Liu Ke remained calm and continued:

"Then if you give this secret letter, which is not in your handwriting at all, to Da He Lu in Xiangyang City, and agree on a time to surrender, will he believe it?"

"This"

Xiutu Bi hesitated and said:
"I'm really not sure. Maybe I'm just half-doubtful."

In fact, given the current impregnable situation in Xiangyang City, even if he really surrenders, Da Helu may not fully believe him.

If this secret letter with an unusual handwriting were given to Da He Lu, Da He Lu might be more trustworthy than if he had seen such a simple letter of sincerity.

After all, it was possible that he, Xiu Tu Bi, really wanted to surrender, but he was afraid that the letter would be intercepted and leave something to be said, so he deliberately changed his handwriting.

Or perhaps, his intention to surrender to Tu Bi was discovered by the Han Emperor, and he tried to seduce him.

It's really useful for dealing with people who have certain strategies and like to think a lot.

Liu Ke dried the ink on the paper and said:

"All in all, you're much safer this way."

"what?"

Xiutu Bi was stunned.

Much safer?

This means that the people who were bombarded with stones and artillery today are not finished yet, and they will continue to take 1000 people to send them off tomorrow?
Today's series of mud bombs almost scared him, why are they still coming?
With this scale and momentum, not to mention 1000 people, even 1 people, under the rain of bullets, it is no different from giving away!

If you can cross the moat, you will be successful!

Knowing this in his heart, Xiu Tu Bi did not hide it and said calmly:

"If your Majesty feels that the general is timid in fighting, there is no need to do so!"

"The last general was also killed from the mountain of corpses and the sea of ​​blood. He is just the last general. Life and death are nothing. Think of Zhang Huaiyang, Qiyan Gou, and Qiyan Sirie. Each of them had tens of thousands of troops when they were alive. They were so arrogant that they died. Isn’t it just a pile of rotten meat?”

"The last general is a Donghu person and is not popular in the army, but the last general will not give up his identity as a Donghu person and consider himself a Han."

"The Donghu people don't know what it means to be timid. Not to mention that Your Majesty only asked the general to lead a thousand men to attack the city today, but he also ordered a hundred men, ten men, or even one man to attack the city alone. The general would be happy to do so!"

"But I also have something to say. I was really frightened by the catapults in Xiangyang City today. The number of catapults in the city is definitely not less than forty!"

"Xiangyang City cannot be destroyed!"

Liu Ke was silent for a moment. He never expected that Xiu Tu Bi would actually think so.

It has to be said that there are indeed useful talents among the Donghu people, and Xiu Tu Bi can definitely be regarded as a pillar of the country.

As for what Xiutu Bi said, if Xiangyang City could not be destroyed, Liu Ke just thought he was farting.

"I know."

"If we really let you attack the city with a thousand people, there won't be any good results."

"But the success or failure still lies with you."

Xiutu Bi pursed his lips and said bluntly:
"But no matter what, not only the general saw the ferocity of the stone-throwing cannons in Xiangyang City, but the general may not be afraid. It can be seen that the generals are a little afraid of this scene."

"I only hope that Your Majesty can understand that even if a general has a good intention, it is difficult to make a meal without rice."

Now Tu Bi likes to teach people how to do things. Liu Ke put down the letter he had just written and said patiently:
"What a cook without rice, I just want to use this cooking utensil to defeat the enemy!"

Xiutu Bi was stunned and said:
"Your Majesty, you mean siege equipment?"

"Generals Ma Kuo and Li, who were responsible for garrisoning the rear of Jiangling, did build a lot of siege equipment."

"But the range of most siege equipment is not as good as the catapults in Xiangyang City. They were destroyed by the catapults in the city before they were even built."

"So, I say the opportunity to destroy the city still lies with you."

Liu Ke walked sideways, next to Xiutu Bi, and whispered:
"Today I will only give you two words: false and true. I will also give you this letter. You should know how to act."

Xiutu Bi opened his mouth to speak and said:

"Your Majesty is going to implement a plan that is both false and true, so that Da Helu in Xiangyang City will not be able to distinguish between ourselves and the enemy, true and false, thereby creating opportunities?"

"But Xiangyang City is impregnable. As of now, His Majesty has only two thousand soldiers and horses. Da Helu is on guard again. Even if it is hard to tell the truth from the truth, he just wants to stick to the city. If he doesn't act rashly, what's the point."

Xiutu Bi was suddenly startled and raised his head sharply.

"Your Majesty wants to take advantage of Da Helu's uncertainty to build up siege equipment?"

Liu Ke nodded.

He specially transferred Xiu Tu Bi to Xiangyang, not because he was interested in Xiu Tu Bi's status as a Hu man from the East, nor because he didn't trust him, but because he wanted to make full use of Xiu Tu Bi's abilities.

[Virtuality] and [Vibration], these two characteristics show that Xiu Tu Bi is a general who is good at bluffing.

Now there are 2000 men in hand. Apart from Lu Fengfu, the treasure weapon against the second and fifth sons, and Yuan Fu, the human shield, the only general who can be used is Xiu Tu Bi.

This is already very vain. I am afraid that in the eyes of most people, such a lineup is just out for an outing when they attack Xiangyang City.

To be honest, even if it were an emperor's outing, it would be much grander than this.

But Liu Ke had no choice. With his siege method, he could only do this.

The fighter opportunity was fleeting, and the key was how Xiu Tu Bi combined bluff with reality and succeeded in building siege equipment under the noses of the Donghu people.

As long as we seize the opportunity at that moment, even with just such a small number of people, it is enough to break through Xiangyang City.

As for if he didn't catch it, Liu Ke was also mentally prepared and would definitely give Xiu Tu Bi a grand burial.

Xiutu Bi stood there, silent for a long time, confused, worried, helpless, and all kinds of emotions were intertwined. But after a long time, when he looked at Liu Ke, he finally fell to the ground, his heart skipped a beat, and he kowtowed repeatedly:

"The final general is willing to issue a military order!"

Ok?
This time it was Liu Ke's turn to be dumbfounded. He never expected that Xiu Tu Bi would dare to issue a military order under such circumstances.

Immediately, he was a little moved, his eyes moved, he took a deep breath, his voice was firm and sonorous, as if it contained the perseverance of mountains and rivers:
"General Xiutu, I am willing to jointly issue a military order with you. We will never return it until we break Xiangyang!"

Xiutu Bi stopped talking, but his eyes were filled with tears.

I have to say that there is indeed a reason why the big man can rise again.

It's just the emperor's courage to issue military orders as an emperor, and his tolerance to foreign generals and corporals.

Among the eight tribes of Donghu, there are only a few Khan kings who can do it.

"Swear to death and be loyal!"

Xiutu Bi just gritted his teeth, squeaked out a few words, and then left the tent to prepare.

He is very straightforward, one is one, and two is two. The emperor trusts him and treats him well, and even entrusts him with important tasks. They even issued a military order together and promised to capture Xiangyang City, so he would be loyal to the death.

Of course, if it were anyone else, Xiu Tu Bi would definitely not believe it.

This is only possible for the Emperor of the Han Dynasty, and only His Majesty today can use all kinds of fancy methods to win impossible battles.

After Xiutu Bi left, Liu Ke, whose eyes were sparkling just now, turned around, crumpled up the military order signed by the two of them, and threw it away.

"Joke, I will lose?"

For a battle that must be won, a military order is just a piece of waste paper.
-
The light rain is still drenching Xiangyang City.

The wall surface after being washed by rainwater is extremely smooth, as if water drops falling on it can bounce twice and then roll off.

Now that he knew that there were Han troops outside the city, although there were few soldiers and they seemed to be here for a walk, Da Helu did not slack off at all.

After directly transferring the city defense to Dahe Timber, and specifically emphasizing the key points of defending the city, he went back to sleep.

The generals below did not dare to neglect preparations for war and defense of the city, and they all made further preparations within the scope of their respective abilities.

Dahe also has a good way of guarding the city with wood, mainly in the construction of equipment that he is good at.In addition to the more than 40 imitation catapults that cut corners, he also specially built a batch of city defense equipment.

What kind of wooden and rolling stones are there to keep guests?

The quantity is shocking, but the quality is not that good. According to Dahe Timber's estimate, if we look at past standards, at least [-]% of them are substandard products.

But no problem.

Let’s just say the quantity is scary or not!
Dahe Timber put down the book in his hand. This was an atlas he made himself. It marked various garrison positions and strategic nodes in Xiangyang City.

I heard that there is a noble named Qi Yanyong in the Qiyan tribe, who can be called a great craftsman in this area. Dahe Timber would like to communicate with him, but there is no news about Qi Yanyong after he supported Runan. .

I don’t know if he died in battle or if his whereabouts were deliberately hidden to cover up some new equipment.

Slogans came from the school grounds, it was the soldiers training.

Although Dahe Timber is better at craftsmanship, he also knows that his old father Dahe Lu is old, and the only person in the city who can absolutely trust and rely on is himself.

He was watching the soldiers training when suddenly there was the sound of horse hooves.

A sentry rider hurried over and said:
"We caught a spy from the Han army, but he said he was here to deliver a message for Xiu Tu Bi!"

Dahe Timber was shocked and stood up hurriedly:
"Where are the people?"

"Right on the horse."

Da He Mu reached his head and looked at the horse. The binding was quite strong.

He quickly asked the sentry rider to put the prisoner down and asked:

"Are you helping Xiu Tu Bi deliver the message?"

"What about the letter?"

The prisoner quickly took out the letter.

Da Hemu looked at it twice and frowned:
"its not right"

He has seen Xiu Tubi's handwriting. Isn't this so damn wrong?

He is not a fool, everyone knows that this cannot be written by Xiu Tubi, right?
Even if the Han people really wanted to fake surrender or use Xiutu Bi's handwriting to deceive them, they wouldn't do such a stupid thing!
Dahe Timber couldn't make up his mind, so he had to give orders and go to Dahe Lu with the letter.

Da Helu hadn't rested for long, and when he saw Da He's wood came for him, he read the letter again with bloodshot eyes.

After reading it, the father and son stared at each other.

Da Helu was also stunned by this letter.

It was indeed Xiutu Bi's tone, and what was said in it was also about surrender, and it was consistent with the previous correspondence.

But this handwriting is the only one that doesn't match up at all.

Was Xiutu Bi afraid of being discovered by the Han Emperor, so he deliberately changed his handwriting to protect himself if the letter was leaked?
Or did the Han Emperor deliberately find out that Xiutu Bi wanted to return to Donghu, so he took advantage of it and used it as a lure?

Can.
It makes no sense at all!
Da He Lu couldn't tell the difference for a while, so he could only say:

"Xiutu Bi said in his letter that he was forced by the emperor to attack the city with 1000 men and did not want to die, so he made up his mind to return to Donghu."

"This does make some sense. After all, no one would want to serve someone so ruthless."

"Although the Han emperor was good at employing people, most of them were Han people. He treated the Donghu people as a blood feud. It is reasonable to be so mean."

Dahe Timber said:
"So, father wants to believe Xiu Tu Bi?"

Da Helu shook his head:
"I really can't believe this note, but whether I believe it or not, it won't have any impact on Xiangyang City."

"But if Xiu Tu Bi really wants to surrender, that would be great."

"That"

"Just do what Xiu Tubi said in the letter. When he attacks the city again, hold back for a while to see if it's true or not, and don't rush to hurt anyone."

Dahe Timber hesitated:
"Will this give the Han people a chance to cross the moat?"

Da He Lu smiled and said:

"Even after crossing the moat, can the Han army of 800 or [-] men attack Xiangyang City?"

"Besides, you shouldn't be able to use your catapult too many times, right?"

Dahe Timber nodded and said:

"That's what the boy told him to do. When Xiu Tu Bi comes to attack next time, let's observe him first to see what he is going to do."

"good."

Da Helu nodded and specifically asked:
"This letter really makes me confused. I don't know what the Han army outside the city is thinking. Be cautious and don't take the initiative to attack."
-
Everything is ready in Xiangyang City, all that is left is for Xiu Tu Bi to start giving away people's heads.

Then Xiu Tu Bi started giving away people's heads.

He still had a thousand soldiers under his command, but he separated 500 of them and lined up at the front, pretending to be crossing the moat.

Xiutu Bi looked at the soldiers and said slowly:

"The last attack on the city was an accident. It was expected that the catapults could not fire continuously. Once they escaped the first wave of dense projectiles, they could cross the moat between the first wave and the second wave, and then take one step Approach the city gate step by step!"

Xiu Tu Bi didn't know what he was talking about. He was as hot as Feng Han and Nao Yu, as if he was talking nonsense.

Several soldiers couldn't bear it immediately, and their hands were connected together unconsciously, feeling very insecure.

but
Xiutu Bi and several Han army officers and soldiers went to the top of the city to look far away.

It seems that we have entered the attack range. Is the catapult really not activated?
"Is that letter useful?"

Xiutu Bi didn't know whether the letter the emperor asked him to send had a confusing effect.

All in all, he was on tenterhooks while doing what he did best, bluffing.

500 people are used as 5 people, and 1000 people are used as 10 people.

Except for the five hundred soldiers who were on the same spot with him and began to build siege equipment.

The remaining five hundred soldiers began to beat drums and hold up flags.

For a time, the war drums were thundering and the war flags covered the sun.

Some people even came to hunt deer and hares, and dozens of soldiers hunted along the moat. People and horses were noisy, and eagles and dogs attacked.

"."

Dahe Timber on the top of the city and Dahe Lu who lacked sleep were really shocked by this momentum.

My heart became increasingly unclear.

Dahe Timber's ears hurt when he heard the noise:
"Father, why not hit him with a slingshot?"

Da Helu shook his head:
"Don't move lightly, lest the Han people spot the clues of the catapult."

"Then stop Tu Bi."

"Xiutu Bi is a person who cannot be trusted easily, and it is impossible not to trust him."

"Don't worry, let's take another look. Once you make some moves, want to cross the moat, or build too many siege equipment, just use the catapult."

"Yes!"

The two of them and the defenders on the city just kept waiting.

Waiting until the sun sets, Xiutu Bi calls the gold and withdraws his troops.

There was only one place left with less than half of the siege equipment built.

As well as Da He Lu and his son, who were staring at each other with big eyes and small eyes.
