Erlong Mountain.
Zhang Guanxi was listening to the report below on the analysis of this attack on the county government.
This time to attack the county government, the entire plan was planned by Zhang Guanxi alone.
His original plan was to test the possibility of attacking the county government.
If you can fight, fight quickly.
If you can't fight, retreat in time to save your strength.
Before.
After Zhang Guanxi and the others received accurate information from the county government.
Zhang Guanxi still had some doubts.
This mere 500 people seemed unjustifiable no matter from any angle.
In Zhang Guanxi's view, this was probably a bait for Chen Dadao, the governor of Heyang County.
He deliberately wanted to use the troops currently in the county government to lure him into attacking the county government.
so.
In the process of attacking the county government.
As long as these five hundred men and horses can use the county wall to hold them back for a while.
Then Chen Dadao will immediately lead a heavy army to encircle him.
This will take them down in one fell swoop.
The terrain of Erlong Mountain is dangerous and easy to defend but difficult to attack. Even Chen Dadao and the others naturally have to be wary.
Using this trick to lure the snake out of its hole is naturally the best strategy.
therefore.
In addition to preparing many siege ladders, Zhang Guanxi and others deliberately ambush a group of troops at another city gate.
first.
It is possible to ambush Chen Dadao's army to prevent being surrounded.
Secondly.
If he successfully ambush the people inside the city in advance, he might be able to take advantage of the opportunity to rush in.
He, Chen Dadao, wanted to eliminate himself, and he wanted to take over the county government.
The comparison between the two is just speed.
What's more, Zhang Guanxi also arranged many people in advance to sneak into the county government and cause trouble.
According to Zhang Guanxi's plan of external assault and internal turmoil, there is still hope for taking down the county seat.
In addition, as expected, Chen Dadao's army did not encircle them.
This matter is a sure thing!
But I didn't expect it.
In the end it ended in failure.
This made Zhang Guanxi unable to figure it out no matter what.
Why did they send nearly 2,000 men but failed to capture the city garrisoned by only 500 men?
This was their first organized attack on a city.
Lack of experience and imperfect command were certainly on the one hand, but the strength of the five hundred men defending the city was beyond their expectations.
If we say that the guards of all the cities in Daxia have this kind of fighting ability.
For Zhang Guanxi and the others, they were naturally very frustrated.
"Let this be the case for now!"
"The county government will conduct investigations for the time being, and focus on the annexation of other hills!"
"Grow our numbers as quickly as possible."
Zhang Guanxi frowned and thought for a long time before speaking to a few people who were waiting impatiently in the hall.
"ah?"
"General, shouldn't we continue our attack on this county?"
"The soldiers on their side also suffered heavy casualties. If we continue to attack, we will definitely be able to capture it!"
General Liu Chong of the South stepped forward and asked in confusion.
Last time, he led more than a thousand troops under his command to attack the city gate.
But more than 300 people were lost!
The city gate has not been taken down yet.
This is for Liu Chong.
What a shame!
Moreover, he had originally won the vanguard officer who attacked the county from the Northern General Zhu Chang.
It made him feel even more shameless.
In his opinion.
The current county government no longer has the defensive strength it had before.
Although he lost a lot of troops on his side, the same happened to the defending soldiers.
If we can take advantage of this opportunity to attack, it is very possible to capture the county government.
"snort!"
"I said Liu Chong, haven't you lost enough?"
"Isn't it just to attack the small county seat of Sanhe County?"
"I heard that you lost more than three hundred horses in one night. I feel ashamed for you."
"Still fighting?"
"I'm afraid that if it weren't for you, the Southern Army would have been completely wiped out."
Northern General Zhu Chang said coldly to the side.
last night.
Their northern army was robbed of the vanguard and was responsible for garrisoning at the northern city gate.
I was already very depressed.
But I didn't expect it.
I squatted all night in vain and caught nothing.
Coupled with the defeat on the side of Southern General Liu Chong, he felt even more unhappy.
"The surname is Zhu!"
"I'll fuck your mother!"
"Can you say that again?"
When Liu Chong heard that Zhu Chang actually attacked him directly, he couldn't help but feel angry.
"snort!"
"You can only say something good twice."
Zhu Chang snorted coldly and ignored him.
"enough!"
Zhang Guanxi roared angrily when he saw what Liu Chong was going to say.
He looked at the people below coldly.
Although I still have four generals in the East, South, West and North under my command.
But among the four of them, they seem to be inseparable from each other.
If he didn't still have a lot of intimidation power now, I might not be able to suppress them long ago.
"This time, although Chen Dadao did not encircle us, I believe that the news of our attack on the county government must have reached his ears, and he will not sit idly by."
"Maybe they will send more troops towards the county capital."
"If we continue to attack the county government, we will be attacked from both sides and it will be difficult to deal with it."
"Even if we take down the county government, we still need to face constant attacks from Chen Dadao. It's not sure whether we can hold it."
"If we can't take it down, we will only lose our troops in vain."
"So we might as well paralyze them temporarily and accumulate strength secretly. With the experience last time, we will definitely be able to take down the county government with thunderous power next time."
"Even if we start a war with Chen Dadao and the others immediately, we will still be able to protect ourselves!"
"When you do things, you can't just see what's in front of you, you have to think a few more steps!"
Zhang Guanxi said to several people.
After listening to Zhang Guanxi's words, several people reacted.
I have to say that Zhang Guanxi has really thought carefully.
They immediately hugged each other.
"Only obey the general's orders!"
…
That night.
According to Zhang Bao's arrangement, everyone was waiting inside Baoyue Tower.
Although Zhang Bao has arranged a lot of preparations for everyone.
But for Zhang Bao.
I still plan to go alone.
after all.
It's one thing that everyone has good intentions, but it's really inappropriate to let everyone drag it down.
Zhang Bao decided to get Lao He out first, and then kill him directly with Lao He.
Thus.
Even if the county magistrate takes the blame when the time comes.
Nothing will happen to Baoyue Tower.
Made up my mind.
Zhang Bao put on the night clothes that Ma Yaner left behind.
Taking advantage of the dark night and high wind, he climbed out of the wall quietly.
Walking all the way towards the county prison.
The results are not there yet.
From a distance, Zhang Bao saw that the prison was on fire.
The fire was so fierce that it illuminated the night sky over there.
Wait until you get near the prison.
Zhang Bao was even dumbfounded.
