"Ah! I know! What the King of Heaven means is that we also ambush them? When they come out, we will beat them hard!"
After hearing Li Zhen's words, Li Shi's eyes immediately lit up and he rubbed his hands in excitement!
Such a good idea, why didn't I think of it? !
With so many siege equipment placed in front of Ning Cheng, when those people inside saw it, wouldn't they risk their lives to find ways to destroy these equipment? !
When the time comes, I’ll beat up the drowned dog myself! Let’s vent the bad anger of the past two days!
"idiot!"
Unexpectedly, just when Li Shi grinned and began to imagine how to catch the enemy off guard, he ran away with his head in his arms! Li Zhen's angry scolding was like a basin of ice water poured on Li Shi's head!
"What, what's wrong? Is something wrong?" Being scolded again... Li Shi immediately shrank his neck reflexively and looked at Li Zhen in fear, wondering where he had gone wrong.
"Who told you to beat those people?" The corners of Li Zhen's mouth twitched twice. He looked at his subordinate who was just a man with only muscles and no brains. He wanted to scold him, but he didn't have the heart to do so.
You all know it's a puddle of mud, is it possible that you really want to stick him to the wall?
Thinking of this, Li Zhen could only take a deep breath to calm down, and finally said weakly: "That's it! Just do what I say! Let those elite troops hide. Once someone Leave the city, don’t worry about anything, just rush straight to the city!”
"Ah? Go in, rush?" Li Shi stared at a pair of innocent eyes, blinked several times, and finally reacted! Suddenly he slapped his thigh heavily:
"Wonderful! As long as we rush in before they close the city gate, Ningcheng will be destroyed without fighting! Tsk tsk, it's the master of the house who is the thief... Ahem! It's the king of heaven who is so clever!"
"Stop talking nonsense!" Li Zhen glanced at Li Shi tiredly, waved his hand and said: "Go and get ready! By the way, let people keep an eye on things, and don't really get caught by their catapults, ballistas, etc. It’s ruined!”
When Li Shi heard this, he immediately trembled and patted his chest and promised: "Don't worry, King of Heaven! When we get there, we will put the siege engines and other things two thousand steps outside the city! I don't believe it, what else do they have?" , can hit two thousand steps! If he can hit me, I...ahem, the little one will be eaten alive by him!"
"Okay, go! Be careful! Don't make any mistakes again!" Li Zhen saw that Li Shi was so sure. For some reason, he still felt a little empty in his heart, but he couldn't figure out where it was. It was safe, so I had to warn him a few times before he was allowed to retreat.
Two thousand steps? Is there really a weapon in this world that can hit a distance of two thousand steps?
After saying this, let alone Li Shi, even Li Zhen would never believe that such a weapon really existed in the world.
After all, in the Tang Dynasty, the attack distance of a catapult was only about three hundred steps.
As for the bed crossbow, generally speaking, it is only about 600 steps! Even if the best materials and the most skilled craftsmen are used, it is incredible to be able to reach a thousand steps!
Li Zhen had also heard that there was a large yellow crossbow made by the Xiao family, which had a range of up to 1,500 steps, but he had always been skeptical about this.
And two thousand steps? ! Just a joke! From such a long distance, my eyes can hardly see clearly. How to fight?
————————————————————————
"Xiao Han, are they preparing to attack the city?"
After a stick of incense was burned, Liu Hongji suddenly noticed that the enemy troops on the opposite side were pushing dozens of large and small siege equipment towards them. Xiao Han asked.
Xiao Han was holding a telescope at this time, and slowly scanned those people. When he saw clearly that it was just some people from the supply camp transporting equipment, and there was no sign of the army following behind, he put down the telescope, and his expression He said solemnly: "Probably not!"
"Then what do they mean?" Liu Hongji's eyes flashed and he sneered: "Do you want to demonstrate against us? To scare us? To make us retreat in the face of difficulties?"
"Probably, he won't be so naive!" Xiao Han thought for a while, and based on his understanding of the madman these days, he felt that this guy shouldn't be so boring.
"That……"
Liu Hongji also frowned. After lowering his head and thinking for a moment, he suddenly thought of something and clapped his hands heavily: "Then they probably want to go fishing and use these equipment as bait to lure us out of the city!"
"It should be like this!" Xiao Han was already looking out with the binoculars at this time.
But this time, he looked at it very seriously and very slowly! It wasn't until he saw some people in the opponent's camp quietly leaving the camp and quietly approaching from both sides under the cover of the terrain that he breathed a sigh of relief and handed the binoculars to Lao Liu.
"Look, some of them are coming this way!"
"Come this way?" Liu Hongji's expression changed slightly, he took the telescope and looked in the direction Xiao Han was looking just now.
Sure enough, in the telescope, there were several cavalry teams that were not too numerous and were gathering out of camp. The direction of their march was clearly towards Ningzhou City under their feet.
"Cavalry? They still have cavalry? Didn't they say that all the stables were burned down?" After carefully observing the opponent's movements for a while, Liu Hongji put down his telescope, suddenly remembered something, and turned to Xiao Han in surprise.
When Xiao Han heard this, he rolled his eyes and said angrily: "The stables burned down, not the horses! There are so many horses, can't they all be lost? Isn't it normal for some to be recovered?"
"Oh..." Liu Hongji scratched his bare forehead, feeling that what Xiao Han said seemed to make some sense.
"In this way, they probably think that we have few people and have to fight tooth and nail if we want to defend the city, so they deliberately showed off the equipment, hoping that we would have to risk destroying it. Then their cavalry will take advantage of the situation and attack us. If we are caught off guard, we might be able to seize the city gate."
"Yes!" Xiao Han also nodded. This plan may seem a bit crude, but it is just like encircling Wei and rescuing Zhao. It is an out-and-out conspiracy.
If an ordinary general were to lead a group of old, weak, sick, and ordinary people, he would have to destroy these devices if he wanted to defend the city wall!
Without destroying the siege equipment, it will be difficult to defend the city wall!
This is a dilemma in itself!
If, at this time, the enemy deliberately sells some flaws and pretends to leave these devices unattended.
There is a high probability that the city guarding general will risk sending people out of the city to try to destroy these things!
And in this way, it plays into the opponent's plan.
