Zhang Wu and Cheng De's attack retreated like a tide. Shi Kuan, who was standing at the top of the city, wiped a mixture of sweat and blood on his face, and said happily to Shi Yi: "Father, Cheng De people are not good anymore. Today's attack is completely different from the previous two days. It seems that we beat them hard and their stamina is weak. In addition, the weather is cold, they can't hold on. I see that most of their soldiers are still wearing autumn clothes. As long as we hold on for a while, the cold wave will come. If they don't withdraw their troops, it will be our turn to counterattack."

Listening to Shi Kuan's words, the generals gathered around Shi Yi nodded frequently, and their faces were filled with joy. Zhang Wu was besieged by tens of thousands of troops. They were originally extremely desperate, but after fighting several consecutive battles, they found that the attacks of the Chengde people were weaker and weaker, and today, they looked even more soft.

And the weather is even more on their side. The cold wave is really coming. They always have city walls in the city and houses are sheltered from the wind and rain. Outside the city, they have to withstand the ravage of the cold wind.

They have seen the dawn of victory.

But unlike these people's joyfulness, Shi Yi was full of worries, and his eyes passed the retreating Chengde army and looked at the distant Yingzhou City.

As a veteran who has been fighting on the battlefield for decades, he can easily argue that the German army did not have the strength to attack, but did not have the full force to attack at all.

Except for the first two battles, Cheng De fought hard, the other party was responding to the story for the remaining battles. It seemed that he wanted to win Zhang Wu, but he was playing a game with him, Shi Yi.

But in this game, both sides have to give some lives to explain each time.

Not only is this not a good thing, on the contrary, this fact shows that another thing that is afraid of is getting closer to him.

Li Ze left Zhang Wu with two thousand cavalry and rushed to Yingzhou City. The two thousand cavalry naturally could not defeat Yingzhou City, but any unexpected thing could happen in this world. If the Chengde soldiers here did not care about life and death and attacked him desperately, he would have been more calm in his heart, but now, the other party's performance made him feel uneasy.

Because this shows that Li Ze must have made decisive progress in the direction of Yingzhou City. Therefore, Chengde soldiers here do not care whether they can quickly take Zhang Wu. If the other party really takes Yingzhou City, then Zhang Wu will definitely be his burial place.

He can't sit here and wait for death.

"Send an order to kill pigs and sheep, and reward the entire army." Still looking into the distance, Shi Yi ordered.

"Yes!" Shi Kuan nodded repeatedly.

"Calculate the Zhangwufu treasury to see how much silver there is. After counting the logistics of our army and how much money and cloth there are, we will reward all the soldiers. After everyone has a good meal, they will rest and sleep. At the fourth update, the entire army will break through!" Shi Yi continued.

"Yes!" Shi Kuan agreed habitually and suddenly reacted, his face full of surprise, "Father, what's the reason? Tens of thousands of troops outside are besieged, our troops are at an absolute disadvantage, and we have no city walls to rely on each other, and we go out of the city to fight. Isn't this abandoning my strength and promoting the enemy's strength? This, this..."

Shi Yi took a deep breath, "I'm worried about the direction of Yingzhou City."

"Sir, even if Yingzhou City is not as solid as a god, it is definitely not something that two thousand cavalrymen can take down, right?" Shi Kuan couldn't help but retort.

"If there was no big problem in Yingzhou City, the Chengde army would never have been like this." Shi Yi pointed to the Chengde Army camp in the distance: "We know that the cold wave is coming, and we have seen most of the Chengde army, and they have not put on cotton coats. Then the generals of the Chengde army don't know? Since we know, why don't they seize the time to attack desperately and take us as soon as possible? If the soldiers do not have the will to fight to the death, then withdrawing is the inevitable choice. Now, they are not fighting seriously, and they are reluctant to withdraw. What does this mean? It means that they are confident and what can make them confident? Naturally, there may be changes in Yingzhou City."

Listening to Shi Yi's explanation, all the generals around him changed their faces.

"Can't they have any problems with their generals?" Shi Kuan defended unconvincedly.

"The general has any problems? Cao Xin eats more salt than you eat, not to mention the powerful generals like Du Teng and Liu Chenglin, who will make such a low-level mistake unless the sun comes out from the west. Go down and prepare, break through at the fourth update today. If you fight out, there may be a glimmer of hope." Shi Yi said decisively.

Several miles outside the city, the Chengde Army Central Army camp, and within Cao Xin's military tent, a group of senior generals were also summoned by Cao Xin.

"Duke Cao, Ximen is fighting today too fake." Liu Chenglin couldn't help complaining when he saw Cao Xin, and at the same time he glanced at Du Teng with dissatisfaction. "A person like Shi Yi was afraid that he could see a clue at a glance. Wouldn't this be a backfire?"

Du Teng took a step forward dissatisfiedly. Just as he was about to speak, Cao Xin waved his hand: "General Liu, you must not blame Du Biejia for this matter. He fought so falsely because of the order I gave him."

"Ah?" Liu Chenglin was stunned for a moment, saying that he did not trust Du Teng's ability, but Cao Xin could not refuse to accept it. "Why is this?"

"Because the young master has sent someone to send a letter, the matter in Yingzhou has been decided." Cao Xin laughed.

"Have you captured Yingzhou?" Liu Chenglin was overjoyed, but immediately asked in confusion: "How did the two thousand cavalry take down a city in Dizhou?"

"Young master has his own tricks!" Cao Xin kept it a secret, "Although it has not been really done, there is basically no problem, so as soon as I received this news, I gave Du Biejia this order to let Shi Yi see it!"

Liu Chenglin's eyes lit up: "Does Cao want to lure Shi Yi out? Then beat him up?"

"That's right!" Cao Xin's face turned cold and his face was full of evil spirits: "Shi Yi had overthrown my tens of thousands of good men in Chengde in a battle. If I don't take revenge this time, how could I afford to be the hero of Chengde who fell in Yingzhou? The young master took Yingzhou with two thousand cavalry, but our tens of thousands of troops could not take Zhang Wu. Wouldn't it make the world laugh at me for being incompetent?"

Liu Chenglin took a deep breath: "Turn the snake out of the hole, then close the door and beat the dog?"

"Yes, Shi Yi is indeed experienced and he will definitely be able to see the problem at a glance. Therefore, tonight he must have taken advantage of the daytime to smash our army's spirit and his troops are in high morale to go out of the city to break through. We will be his breakthrough." Cao Xin said.

"Which direction will the main attack be in?" Liu Chenglin asked.

"General Liu is also a veteran on the battlefield. Why not talk about your opinions? Let's take a look at it together?" Cao Xin asked with a smile.

Liu Chenglin smiled, looked at Du Teng, and said, "This man won't go out to attack the north city gate, because Cao Gong's central army is stationed here, so he will definitely feint attacking my east gate and actually attack the west gate."

Hearing this, Du Teng could no longer bear it: "Why did he pretend to attack the East Gate and actually attack the West Gate instead of the other way around?"

Liu Chenglin raised his head and said, "Because I am not that easy to bully."

Du Teng was furious: "Can we Shenzhou soldiers be bullied?"

Liu Chenglin clearly looked down on the Shenzhou soldiers, but made the generals of Shenzhou all suddenly unite with the same hatred of the enemy. They took one step forward and glared at Liu Chenglin, including Hu Shier. Even though he knew that this was the young master's brother-in-law, now this brother-in-law even looks down on him. How can he tolerate this?

You are just your brother-in-law, not your young master.

"Don't accept it?" Liu Chenglin smiled and said, "Where will we see the clues tonight. See which direction Shi Yi will choose as a breakthrough? If he chooses me, then after this battle, I will apologize to you. If he chooses you, you must not do a soft-legged crab and ruin Mr. Li's major event."

Du Teng blushed and said angrily: "Okay, if Shi Yi chose us and we have another leak, then I, Du Teng, cut my head to you."

"Okay, don't make these meaningless battles. All three camps must be prepared to fight." Cao Xin knocked on the table and said, "No matter where Shi Yi chose as the main breakthrough, the ministry just needs to entangle him tightly."

The troops of Shenzhou were divided into two distinct rows with Liu Chenglin's Jingzhou tribes, and lined up to leave the central army's tent, and one by one stared at each other with his eyes like a cockfighting.

"Mr. Cao, do you think Shi Yi will choose to make a breakthrough?" Shi Zhuang, who was watching the fun, asked Cao Xin with a smile.

Cao Xin raised his eyebrows and said, "General Shi has known it for a long time, why ask me?"

The two looked at each other and laughed

Shenzhou soldiers. Shi Yi would of course choose Shenzhou soldiers.

This is not because the soldiers in Shenzhou are unable to fight, but because Shenzhou has just experienced a mutiny and Suning was taken down. Even though the army remains stable due to Li Anguo's prestige and the control of the generals below, the morale of the army is definitely not as high as that of Liu Chenglin's troops. Moreover, when it comes to war, Liu Chenglin's reputation has been so popular in the north over the years, and Du Teng has never fought a war for many years.

"Do you want to arrange a unit behind the Shenzhou soldiers just in case?" Shi Zhuang asked.

Cao Xin nodded: "Chen Changping, after nightfall, you will lead your troops to detour and station ten miles behind Xicheng, just in case."

"Understood."

Shi Zhuang smiled and said, "Liu Chenglin is really a smart person. It is better to provoke him than to ask for him. His provocation will inevitably make Du Teng be energetic tonight. This time, Shi Yi bumped into Du Teng, who was determined to make an old face, and he was afraid that he would hit the iron plate."

"Otherwise, how could Liu Chenglin become a famous general in the north? We are all old, General Shi, in the future, it depends on you. Liu Chenglin and other young sects will destroy the city and draw villages for the prince."
