The deputy general said: "General, now we have to stick to the city and send people to ask for help from the surrounding friendly forces."
The fat general nodded quickly and said, "Okay, okay. Just listen to Vice General Su."
At this moment, Wang Qizhi rode a tall horse and shouted to the fat general on the city wall: "Ning Li, you'd better surrender quickly! I can still save your life."
Ning Li was so frightened that he didn't know what to say. If Lieutenant General Su hadn't reminded him, this guy would still be stunned.
"Wang...Wang Qizhi, don't go too far, little one. When our army arrives, I want you to look good."
Wang Qizhi sneered and shouted "attack the city"! The soldiers immediately set up ladders and rushed to the city wall by themselves.
For some reason, Wang Qizhi's soldiers performed extremely poorly in these sieges. They were beaten to a pulp by the local soldiers defending the city, leaving more than a thousand corpses of soldiers behind, and their morale also dropped to the bottom.
When Na Ningli saw that he had won, he immediately became arrogant and stood at the top of the city laughing, "That kid Wang Qizhi is nothing more than that."
When the generals around him saw this, they immediately began to flatter him, saying that the general was brave and invincible and that the thieves were just a mob and not worth worrying about.
The next day, yesterday's battle was heard in Bianliang City, and rumors spread, saying that General Ning Li was powerful and that the enemy bandits were no match at all. If the general took the initiative to go out to meet the enemy, he would definitely beat the enemy to pieces.
When these words reached Ning Li's ears, he became a little carried away. Regardless of Lieutenant General Su's obstruction, he prepared to leave the city to fight tomorrow.
Lieutenant General Su prayed: "General, please don't do this. I'm afraid this is a trick of that boy Wang Qizhi."
Ning Li didn't have any strategy at all. He was able to become the general who defended the city all because of his brother-in-law, who was an official in the court. He had done all kinds of evil in Bianliang City for so many years, bullying men and dominating women. The people had suffered enough from him.
Ning Li glared at Vice Admiral Su and said, "Don't think that I don't know what you are thinking. You are just afraid that if I make military exploits, you will never be able to get ahead."
This Lieutenant General Su was originally named Su Wu. He was familiar with the art of war and strategy, but he was upright and offended many officials in the court, so he was demoted to this small town as a small general.
Su Wu had always been dissatisfied with Ning Li's actions, and the two often had conflicts. The latter regarded it as a thorn in his flesh, and the more the former objected, the more Ning Li had to do it.
Su Wu was not used to his immediate superior, and said: "Ning Li, you bastard, if you do this, more than five thousand brothers will die."
Ning Li was so angry that he immediately ordered someone to lock up the bastard. Su Wu could only scream helplessly.
Soon, Wang Qizhi left and still commanded the soldiers to charge, but it failed like the previous times. Ning Li felt that the time had come, so he immediately had someone open the city gate and rushed out on a tall horse.
Seeing this situation, Wang Qizhi immediately ordered the remaining people to flee. The soldiers abandoned their helmets and armor along the way and showed great embarrassment.
When Wang Qizhi led his army to escape into the woods, he immediately stopped. When he chased after him at night, he saw that the opponent had not escaped. While he was still wondering, countless arrows flew over from around him, and he was shot to death on the spot. Many soldiers, and then many Wang Qizhi's soldiers appeared around, surrounding them.
Wang Qizhi sweated profusely and said: "As long as you put down your weapons, I will spare your life, otherwise..."
When Ning Li saw this, he was so frightened that he fell off his horse. The soldiers were so embarrassed when they saw their general. They were surrounded by nearly 20,000 people and had no way out. They even dropped their weapons and surrendered.
Wang Qizhi came to Ning Li and said, "You loser, should I kill you or let you go?"
Ning Li kowtowed as if pounding garlic and said: "Please general, let me go."
After Wang Qizhi thought for a moment, he said: "Then let you go!"
Ning Li thought that he had heard wrongly and let him go so easily. He confirmed again: "General, you are right!"
Wang Qizhi said impatiently: "Get out!"
Hearing this, Ning Li immediately mounted his horse and fled out of the woods without looking back.
Pang Tong said to Wang Qizhi from the bottom of his heart: "My lord, you did a good job."
Wang Qizhi smiled slightly and replied, "Nothing."
There are three reasons why he let this bastard go.
First, if this waste was killed in front of these surrendering soldiers, they would definitely think that Wang Qizhi did not sincerely accept their surrender, and they might end up with the same fate as Ning Li, and something would definitely happen.
Second, putting this waste back would cause a lot of trouble to Wang Sheng'an, which would be beneficial to their next actions.
Third, Wang Qizhi is clearly telling these surrendering soldiers, look, I can let go of trash like this, and I will definitely not attack you, so don't worry.
Just as Wang Qizhi expected, these surrendered soldiers were let go when they saw Ning Li. Wang Qizhi would definitely not harm them, so he had no idea of resistance. They, the soldiers, could follow anyone. They were just going to eat. Eat, as long as you don't die, anything will happen.
Wang Qizhi first asked Dian Yi to take everyone to Liangcheng, Bianliang, so that he could train these soldiers and bury and compensate the injured brothers.
Dianyi cupped his hands and said, "Here."
Wang Qizhi and Pang Tong were riding leisurely on the road. The former said: "Military advisor, thanks to your strategy this time, otherwise we would not have taken Bianliang City so quickly."
Pang Tong smiled slightly and said, "It's nothing, just a little trick."
It turned out that during those several attacks on the city, Pang Tong deliberately made the soldiers behave so exaggeratedly, and his purpose was to make Naningli deliberately underestimate them. In addition, the former sent people to deliberately spread news in the city, and the damn fat man was really fooled.
Wang Qizhi said: "This time we have the supplement of more than 4,000 surrendered troops, and our power has grown a bit stronger, but we are still no match for Wang Sheng'an. What should we do if he reacts?"
Pang Tong stroked his beard and said slowly: "My lord, don't be afraid. Let's just spend some more money. I believe Wang Sheng'an will not take action against us."
Wang Qizhi nodded, "I'll leave this matter to you."
After the two entered the city, as soon as they arrived at the general's mansion, several soldiers escorted Su Wu over. Wang Qi recognized this person at a glance and said:
"What are you doing? Untie General Su quickly."
Unexpectedly, Su Wu didn't appreciate it at all. He refused to let go and said: "Wang Qizhi, now that we are defeated, there is nothing to say. Kill me quickly!"
This kind of hero is exactly what Wang Qizhi needs now, and he must take him under his command.
"General Su, what are you doing? Wang Sheng'an is stupid and incompetent. Following him will only make you humiliated. Why not follow me and achieve great things?"
