Become a feudal king from today

Chapter 687: Impromptu idea

"Your Highness is right, it's better to be careful. Read М" Chang Wei looked at Xiang Yangcheng and narrowed his eyes slightly.

That night, there was not a single star in the sky, it was as dark as ink, and everything was silent.

Only the torches held by the patrolling soldiers at the top of Yangcheng City were looming.

At this moment, the sound of swaying bells suddenly sounded outside Yangcheng, breaking the tranquility.

In an instant, countless flames flew out from Yangcheng, lighting up the surrounding area within a hundred meters.

At the top of the city, the Lucheng artillerymen guarding the artillery were staring at the place illuminated by the fire, ready to light the fuse and bombard the enemy at any time.

The fusiliers also took aim at the same time.

But what surprised them was that in the firelight were not the sneak attack soldiers of King Yan, but several donkeys with cloths on their hooves, a branch picked out from their backs, and green grass tied to them.

It was these donkeys who broke through their trap.

A general immediately got off the city wall and walked a hundred meters away.

He told this situation to Wang Xie and Xie An who were playing chess in a shop along the street.

Wang Xie frowned when he heard this, looking a little annoyed, obviously unhappy because his plan was cracked.

For a moment, Xie An wanted to laugh, but he held it back.

Although he was a little dissatisfied with Wang Xie, who looked aloof.

But they are currently on the battlefield, and if their strategy fails, they may face serious consequences.

Looking at Wang She, he said: "What should we do now?"

"Kill those donkeys. I want to see how many donkeys King Yan has available?" Wang She said angrily.

He originally wanted to use the method of the Battle of Yanguan to deal with the soldiers of King Yan.

In this way, they can kill and injure a large number of King Yan's soldiers at the moment when the fire is illuminated.

His order reached the city wall, and there was a burst of gunfire.

One donkey fell to the ground after being shot. The other donkeys were frightened, ran wildly with their hooves down, and disappeared into the darkness.

"Damn, he actually used the same method we used to deal with Beidi to deal with us. This Wang Xie has probably learned all the battles we have fought." Chang Wei felt a chill behind him.

During this period, due to the smooth progress of the war, he was really a little careless.

Originally, he was planning to let the skirmishers throw grenades at the city wall tonight.

Fortunately, King Yan reminded him and asked him to think carefully before attacking the city.

Otherwise, the skirmishers sent out this time would probably suffer heavy casualties.

Zhao Xu didn't sleep either. He was standing next to Chang Wei at the moment.

The flaming arrows shot from Yangcheng gradually extinguished, and the front of Yangcheng fell into darkness again.

He believed that Yangcheng soldiers would come out of the city and reset the bell trap.

"Wang Xie is quite smart, but he can only scratch the surface." Zhao Xu said lightly, "Go find some bells."

Chang Wei was startled for a moment, then suddenly realized, he chuckled and said: "High, it is really high."

After saying this, he ordered a soldier to go.

Not long after, the soldiers brought thirty bells.

Chang Wei distributed the bells to thirty soldiers.

Let them find obstacles as much as possible to cover themselves at a distance of 150 meters from the city wall.

The reason for choosing this distance is because the furthest arrows in the city only land at about 130 meters.

One hundred and fifty meters away it was complete darkness.

The soldiers were ordered to press the copper knobs inside the bells to prevent the bells from making any sound before reaching their respective positions.

Then they suddenly shook the bells in their hands according to Chang Wei's order.

"Dingling bells..." A bell rang, and many flaming arrows flew out of Yangcheng again, illuminating the area 130 meters away from the city wall.

On the city wall, the soldiers immediately looked for the target but found that there was nothing outside.

They suddenly showed surprised expressions.

This situation was immediately reported to Wang Xie.

Wang Xie's face suddenly turned gloomy as he rolled his eyes.

Xie An also figured out the key. He said: "It must be the soldiers of King Yan who deliberately shook the bells to trick us into shooting arrows."

Wang Xie nodded, this was exactly what he thought of.

He said: "Now that the sound of the bell is true or false, it doesn't matter once or twice. The soldiers will definitely get tired and relax their vigilance a hundred or two hundred times."

Xie An looked solemn. Gurtu was indeed right. The generals under King Yan were really difficult to deal with.

After pondering for a while, he said, "If this is the case, we can only replace the soldiers in turn, so that the soldiers will not get bored."

"This is the only way." Wang Xie couldn't think of any other way.

While the two were talking, suddenly the archers under the city wall shot flaming arrows outwards.

There must be another sound of bells coming from outside.

He couldn't help feeling resentful again.

"It is said that King Yan is also in the army this time. This idea may be his." Wang Xie sighed secretly, feeling suddenly angry and disappointed in his heart.

He always thought highly of himself, thinking that although he was not as good as King Yan in terms of firearms and troops, he would be slightly better in strategy, but he was ultimately disappointed.

"Jingle Bell……"

The bells rang continuously from midnight until dawn the next day.

When the white fish belly appeared in the east, the area more than 100 meters in front of Yangcheng was filled with countless half-burned arrows.

"General, let's see how many arrows they have to waste!" Chang Wei snorted coldly as he looked towards Yangcheng with his binoculars.

Then he said: "Your Highness, they keep rotating soldiers at night, so it's not easy to paralyze them."

Zhao Xu yawned, "You can only be a thief for a thousand days. How can you prevent a thief for a thousand days? Don't be anxious and play with them for a few more days. Besides, I am not just trying to paralyze Wang Xie and the others!"

"What your Highness means..." Chang Wei looked at Zhao Xu and thought that His Highness King Yan must have a new plan.

Sure enough, Zhao Xu said: "Let Qin Shan command 30,000 troops and march by day and night to Jicheng."

Hearing this, Chang Wei slapped his thigh and said, "Fighting with His Highness for a day, the general has benefited a lot. It turns out that Your Highness led all the troops to attack Yangcheng just to attack the east and the west, leaving Jicheng and Zicheng undefended, and then take the opportunity to capture it." ”

Zhao Xu nodded slowly, looking confident, but actually felt weak.

This matter is really not as complicated as Chang Wei thought.

He just saw that Yangcheng had accumulated a large number of powerful soldiers and horses, and that Yangcheng was easy to defend and difficult to attack.

This plan of true and false bells will only take some time, and even if the opponent is paralyzed, if Yangcheng hoards the most troops and horses, the royal family's troops will suffer a lot of casualties.

Then suddenly he had an idea and decided to use the real and fake bell strategy to show that he would not give up until Yangcheng was taken.

In fact, he secretly visited Chencang to see if he could capture Jicheng.

But of course he couldn't tell Chang Wei directly about this, otherwise it would affect his glorious image.

Having settled this matter, the bells in Yangcheng rang all night again.

At the same time, Qin Shan quietly left the camp and headed for Jicheng with 30,000 soldiers and horses.

After four nights of rapid march, they arrived at Jicheng and prepared to attack the city.
