Then everyone dispersed, and Chang Yu was sitting alone in the hall in a daze. Su Jingqian came in and made him a cup of tea. He said softly: "If we stab Bai Wang in the thief's hand, will this fight be easier?"
Chang Yu turned his head and smiled slightly: "How did you stab him among the thousands of troops?"
"I have negotiated with Song Luoshu. You will launch a feint attack and we will pretend to be thieves and follow him into the battlefield, looking for an opportunity to assassinate him." Sober eyes are firm.
"Once the battle begins among thousands of armies, even if you are strong in martial arts and have no swords, it will be extremely difficult and dangerous. Even if you survive, it will be difficult to get close to Bai Wang. How can he not be on guard when the king is surrendering in front of him? At this time, I am afraid that only his confidants can If you get close, it won't be easy to kill him."
"Assassins are meant to win in danger." Su Jing's expression was calm: "Seeing that you have been frowning for the past two days, it must be because of your troubles. Since I have obeyed your orders, I should share your worries with you..." Before he could finish his words, Chang was Yu waved his hand to interrupt: "It's useless. Even killing Bai Wang now will have little impact on the war. The bandit army at this time is no longer the ragtag group of earlier years. They have formed a complete leadership system."
"What do you mean?" Su Jing looked confused.
"For example, if I die in battle, the military power of the officers and soldiers will be taken over by Lu Daqi and Xu Hongji, and they can fight as they want. If they die in battle, the command power will be taken over by Wu Sangui and Ma Ke, and so on unless the imperial court Send another man." Chang Yu stood up and walked to the door and looked at the sky: "Even if Bai Wang is dead, there are capable people under his command to take over. They will not give up such a good strategic position and withdraw their troops just because one person dies. Of course. "If he dies, it will still have some impact, but it will not be enough to cause a devastating impact. I will not put you two in danger just for such a small impact."
Su Jing finally understood: "So if killing Bai Wang can have a collapse effect, you can sacrifice the two of us?"
I have to say that this woman's thinking is very... that!
"Yes!" Chang Yu was also very direct! He turned around and shrugged, spreading his hands, Su Jing rolled his eyes and said, "cold-blooded" and turned to leave.
Chang Yu slept late and got up a little late. When he opened the door, he felt the sun was dazzling. The weather was not only sunny but also scorching, and he couldn't help but curse his mother.
After washing, Li Muxian came to see that all the generals had gone out of the city to do regular drills. Although the soldiers were exhausted from the past few days of fighting and it was not suitable to do more drills, it was not good to be relaxed before the war, and they always wandered in the city and affected the lives of the people.
During the conversation, information was sent to the front of the case. At this time, Li Yan's army was on the other side of Tongling. His vanguard had joined Gao Jie and others and had advanced to five miles below the city to set up camp for repairs.
But another piece of news made him frown. Because Bai Wang had the advantage of the geographical location, it was difficult for him to move forward, so he headed towards the Tiaoshenji Camp to help the battle. Unexpectedly, there was no ship on the other side for a while. It turned out that Cheng Niandong had previously carried out a plan to stop the officers and soldiers. The tactics of strengthening the walls and clearing the country not only robbed the people, but also burned or took away the fishermen's boats on the riverside.
"The thief general guarding Anqing is not an ordinary person." A sneer appeared at the corner of Chang Yu's mouth, and he said to Li Muchian: "It seems that we have to send people and ships over here. This trip will not be delayed, but it is for Bai Bai. There will be enough time to replenish the army and prepare food and grass."
Li Muchian often sighed: "God still wants him to take a breather, but the Tiger Crouching Artillery of the Shenji Battalion is not of much help to the siege, and we are in urgent need here. If you can't bear the casualties, then just wait a little longer." Let’s go”.
"God's calculation is not as good as that of man!" Chang Yu also sighed and said to Li Muchian: "Go and handle this matter, mobilize the fishing boats in and outside the city to go to Anqing as quickly as possible to get the Shenji Camp over!"
Li Muxian left immediately. After breakfast, Chang Yu stared at the scorching sun and went up to the top of the city to watch Wu Sangui and others training their soldiers and horses. Unexpectedly, after walking around the city, there were no soldiers and horses around. He was shocked. Where are they? Even the three guards of Dongchang didn't know where they were.
Just as he was about to send people to look for him, Qia Lu Daqi went to the city and asked for help. Lu Daqi smiled bitterly and shook his head: "He went to the rebel camp in the south."
Uh... Chang Yu was startled and immediately guessed what Wu Sangui and the others were thinking.
Wu Sangui and Ma Ke are both among the bravest generals in the Ming Dynasty today. Wang Tizhong is also a gangster, not to mention the three guards of Dongchang. These generals are not only brave but also very arrogant. Yesterday's sending troops to fight fiercely was unfavorable. Today's borrowing Practice to regain the ground. Anyway, they won't rush into the rebel positions, and the rebels won't have the guts to rush out and fight them. They will simply show off their muscles under your nose to shock the enemy's morale.
This is actually a kind of psychological warfare!
Naturally, Chang Yu would not miss such a good show. Just as he was about to go down to the city, he saw several cavalry approaching in the distance. It turned out that Wu Sangui had sent people to report. The bandit army had strengthened its position and it was now said to be impregnable!
How is it so impregnable? Chang Yu was very curious, so he galloped away on horseback under the scorching sun. After walking for ten miles, he saw more than ten thousand troops training in square formations. As he approached the horse, he saw that the rebel positions were heavily guarded. How could they endure the provocation of the officers and soldiers at the door of their house? If he didn't rush out, it could be seen that Bai Wang was really smart at using soldiers. At least he had seen through the intention of the officers and soldiers, which was to lure him out of the trench to fight.
Bai Wang is not stupid, how can he use his own shortcomings to touch other people's strengths?
When Wu Sangui, Ma Ke and others saw Chang Yuzhi, they came to greet them one after another. They raised their hands and pointed in the distance: "Lord Governor, look at this." Chang Yu took out his telescope and looked at it. A few dozen meters away, there were piles of corpses exposed to the scorching sun with flies on them. Flying back and forth, there was a ditch of rocks even further away, and more than a hundred meters away was a stone wall stretching from the foot of the mountain in the east to the riverside in the west. I couldn't help but frown.
"Since that stone wall, there are one every hundred meters, three in a row, and ditches have been dug between each one!" Marco said softly beside him and pointed to the mountains to the east: "Look, in addition to the archers, there are ten more "Yu Trebuchet" Chang Yu turned his head and looked, his face became more solemn.
"This position is surrounded by piles of rocks and trenches. Our cavalry cannot rush into it. We can only charge with infantry. But the thieves can draw their bows and shoot arrows from behind the stone wall, not to mention the rocks and arrows covering them from the top of the mountain in the east. In this way, every time we break through Just one stone wall will cause heavy losses!" Wu Sangui spat as he spoke: "This thieves are harder to beat than the Tatars!"
"If not for this, how could Zuo Liangyu have been in vain for several years!" Chang Yu sighed softly and looked at Bai Wang with admiration again. He was able to make full use of the terrain and carry out such a large project overnight. It's amazing! Then he rode his horse and walked around from east to west along the edge of the position, and then ordered the army to return to the city for repairs.
On the mountain ridge, Bai Wang put down the telescope in his hand under the shade of a tree next to the boulder, and the corners of his mouth were slightly raised. The young man became arrogant after winning a few battles. Let Big Brother teach you how to be a good man!
"Commander, are we just going to hang out with the officers and soldiers like this?" Wang Yi'en next to him gritted his teeth in hatred as he looked at the retreating officers and soldiers.
Bai Wang glanced at him: "Right now, the officers and soldiers are divided into two groups. We don't need to use softness to overcome the strong to avoid its sharp edge. But once it weakens again and is exhausted, it's time for us to take action."
"Again, it will be exhausted after three attempts?" Wang Yi'en, the boss, couldn't understand. Yuan Sanzhong, who was next to him, interrupted: "The officers and soldiers returned in vain yesterday after a vigorous effort, which has affected their morale. If they still fail the second and third time, their morale will not matter." The will to fight will still be overwhelming, and at that time it will be time for us to take the initiative to send troops."
"You mean, siege Tongling City?" Wang Yi'en finally understood.
Bai Wang nodded and turned to look to the southwest: "The officers and soldiers of the West Road are heading towards Anqing, but they want to capture Anqing City as if they were reaching the south of the sky, but it still does not affect our encirclement of Wei and rescue of Zhao! If he attacks Anqing, I will attack Tongling!" Let’s see who succeeds first!”
Yuan Sanzhong continued: "If once we break through Tongling, the officers and soldiers here will be tight, and the siege on Anqing will be lifted immediately, and we take advantage of the situation to go north to build momentum, the officers and soldiers will not dare to go south to harass us because they are worried about the safety of Nanjing. In this way, our side will be stable." Got it!"
Bai Wang smiled and nodded: "So the key to changing the situation is here! As long as we can withstand two more attacks by the officers and soldiers, the rest is up to us."
When the three of them said they were enjoying themselves, they looked up to the sky and laughed. Wang Yi'en looked at the officers and soldiers in the distance: "The gelded dog claims to be invincible in battles, as if he is invincible in the world. This will definitely make him bloody and realize that there are people outside the world."
Bai Wang put away his smile after hearing these words: "This man has some ability to gain such a reputation at a young age. It is rumored that he has endless ways to use soldiers to master the art. We should be careful about him. If we can't attack for a long time, we will be defeated." "Shi Yinzhao" said and looked at the river from a distance: "Send an order to seize the fishing boats and block the waterway to prevent the officers and soldiers from attacking by waterway." Then he turned back and looked at the vast mountains: "There are many light and dark sentries in the mountains, spreading out ten miles away to prevent them." Sneak attack!"
