Chapter 686
After hearing Meng Huo's words, Meng You didn't know what to say. King Duosi frowned and said, "This Daisen is rampant and rough, it's fine to face ordinary opponents, but now his opponent is the Qin army, which is more fierce than a tiger and wolf, and he may ruin a big deal!"
Meng Huo said resolutely: "You can't rely on this idiot!" He looked at King Duosi and said, "You think of a solution!" King Duosi showed a thoughtful expression and muttered to himself: "Although the enemy's troops are not many, the Qin army is definitely not an ordinary army, and it has Dianchi City as a support!" He suddenly moved his expression and said to Meng Huo: "King, I have a solution..." Meng Huo hurriedly said, "What are your tricks? Tell me quickly!"
King Duosi said: "Dianchi City is located south of Dianchi Lake, and a small river in Chengjiang flows through the city..." Meng You thought that King Duosi wanted to break into the city through this small river, and immediately shook his head and said: "This is impossible! Although this small river flows through the city, there is an iron fence that cannot be opened at the water gate, and we can't get in at all!" King Duosi waved his hand and said, "No, no, no, I don't mean that!" Then he said to Meng Huo: "The water in the city depends on this small river, and the defenders in the city are no exception. I mean, we can refine poisons upstream and throw them into the river, so that we can defeat the Qin army without bloodshed. It will naturally be easy to seize Dianchi Lake at that time!" Meng Huo was overjoyed and praised: "Miscellaneous plan! Miracle plan!"
Meng You hurriedly said, "But, but in this way, the Qin army will certainly be harmed by poisonous water, and our people will not be spared!" King Duosi looked at Meng Huo. Meng Huo resolutely said, "The Han people say that 'Those who accomplish great things do not care about the trivial matters'! In order to achieve great things, some sacrifices are inevitable!" King Duosi immediately said, "The king is wise!" Meng Huo thought for a moment and said grimly, "But this strategy does not need to be implemented immediately. Be prepared first. I want to let the Shan Kingdom and the 18 kings fight with the Qin army first to lose both sides!"
Early the next morning, Daisen led his Shan army and eighteen troops to continue to attack Dianchi Lake. From early in the morning, the sound of the fierce battle shook the whole world! Daisen's attack was more fierce than yesterday, and the army besieged from all sides, with almost no stopping at all. However, the war lasted from morning to noon, and from noon to evening, Daisen's army could not make any progress! When the sun set, there were only corpses accumulated above and below the city, and blood seemed to turn everything into bright red!
Immediately afterwards, on the third and fourth days, Daisen continued to attack fiercely. However, Dianchi Lake remained as still as a rock. After several days of fierce battle, the Shan army and the eighteen armies not only suffered heavy casualties, but also almost exhausted their spirits. In the military camp at night, there was silence and the atmosphere was very sluggish. These originally aggressive armies had long disappeared from their original momentum.
Dai Sen paced back and forth in the tent, with a look of depression and anger on his face. Meng Huo saw him like this and sneered in his heart. He felt that after fighting for the past few days, the Shan army and the eighteen armies had suffered great losses, and he was also worried that the enemy troops in Yongchang County would support him, so he decided to implement his poison attack plan.
Meng Huo walked out and said to Dai Sen: "Prince, I thought of a way that should be able to defeat the Qin army!..." Dai Sen stopped, glanced at him, and said angrily: "What can you do?" Meng Huo was furious and forced himself to endure it, saying: "This Chengjiang flows through Dianchi City. The drinking water in the city depends on this Chengjiang. We can refine poisons upstream and throw them into the river, so that everyone in the city can be harmed by poisonous water! If the Qin army is poisoned, wouldn't it be easy to seize Dianchi Lake?" The leaders were overjoyed and cheered. However, Dai Sen said angrily: "With such a despicable trick, you can't be considered a hero if you win!"
Meng Huo was both amused and angry, and said sarcastically: "If the Prince is unwilling to use my despicable strategy, I have nothing to say! Then let me see how the Prince defeated the Qin army like a hero!" Dai Sen was furious and asked, "What do you mean? Do you think I can't defeat the Qin army?" Meng Huo sneered: "I don't mean this! This is what the Prince said himself!" Seeing that he dared to talk to him like this, Dai Sen was about to attack immediately. Zhao Chuanfang, who was standing next to him, hurried out to smooth things over and said, "Prince Prince! Prince, calm down! Prince Meng Huo, there is no intention of disrespect to the Prince. He just wants to break the Dianchi Lake faster!" Dai Sen snorted and glared at Meng Huo with warning. Meng Huo was furious, but it did not occur.
Zhao Chuanfang walked to Daisen and whispered: "Prince, although the strategy proposed by Meng Huo is a little despicable, it is his despicable and has nothing to do with Your Excellency. The most urgent task now is to break the Dianchi Lake as soon as possible to open up the situation, otherwise the war will be delayed for a long time. This is fine, but if His Majesty the King blames it, wouldn't it embarrass the Prince?" Zhao Chuanfang was originally a strategist under Meng Huo, but not long ago, after Daisen led a large army, Zhao Chuanfang somehow became a strategist around Daisen, trusted by Daisen, and is now the largest celebrity around Daisen.
Dai Sen felt that what Zhao Chuanfang said made sense. Although he was reluctant, he nodded involuntarily. He glanced at Meng Huo and whispered to Zhao Chuanfang: "I can't say such a shameful thing. Just convey my meaning privately." "Yes. The villain understands."
After the meeting, Zhao Chuanfang caught up with Meng Huo and some people who were about to return to their camp, and smiled and bowed, "Master!..." Meng Huo sneered, "I dare not be it! You Han people are indeed despicable and shameless things!" Zhao Chuanfang smiled indifferently, and then said, "Master, the prince said, please implement the poison attack plan immediately!" Meng Huo couldn't help but want to say a few sarcastic words when he heard this, but thinking that the enemy is facing now, he swallowed the words that had already reached his mouth. Meng Huo said coldly, "I understand. Please don't worry." Then he led King Duosi and Meng You away.
The sight turns to Ailao. The so-called Ailao here does not refer to Ailao Mountain, but a steep fortress located on the north bank of the Daying River. It is probably north of Ruili today, hundreds of miles away from Ailao Mountain in the east. The reason why Liu Jue named this place Ailao may be because the feelings of his hometown are at work.
The return of the Red Bat made Liu Jue very excited. The big stone he originally chose was put down. As soon as the Red Bat returned to Ai Lao, he gave advice for Liu Jue on the surface, but was preparing for the Qin army to capture Ai Lao. However, on this day, a sudden emergency report made the Red Bat a little confused. It turned out that there was news from the east that Dai Sen, the prince of Shan State, had actually led more than 100,000 coalition forces to attack Dianchi City, and the situation seemed to have suddenly become unfavorable to the Qin army. Liu Jue was already excited because of this news and shouted loudly: "Lu Bu is in big trouble for the Shan State to send troops. We are about to fight back!"
Having said that, Liu Jue did not dare to act rashly. He had already seen the powerful Qin army, and knew very well that if his tens of thousands of troops left the natural danger of Ailao, it would not be enough for the Qin army to get stuck in the gap! Liu Jue sent a scout to closely monitor the Qin army's every move, intending to immediately march back to Dianchi Lake as long as the Qin army returned to Dianchi Lake. If only Zhurong's troops were left in Yongchang, he would not be afraid.
Not long after, what Liu Jue hoped finally happened. The scout came urgently, saying that the Qin army and Zhurong Zhu you had retreated eastward. Now only Zhurong's troops were left in Yongchang City, leading 10,000 Zhurong's troops. Now all the troops and troops of Zhurong's troops have shrunk into the city and closed the city gate.
Liu Jue was overjoyed and felt that the opportunity had come. Then he left the red bat to guard Ailao, gathered almost all his troops out of Ailao and went straight to Yongchang. The army broke out from the mountains and ridges and crossed the Nujiang River. The rich and beautiful Yongchang Plain immediately came into view. Liu Jue couldn't wait to recover his Yongchang and rushed forward. Soon after, the army arrived at Yongchang City and formed a formation to challenge.
After a while, a figure of a female general appeared on the top of the city. Liu Jueren's Qionghua couldn't help but shout: "General Qionghua! You are now in a turtle! Don't make unnecessary resistance. As long as you open the city gate, I will not only guarantee your current official position, but also accept you as my wife! If you are such a beauty, wouldn't it be a big shame if you die on the battlefield?" Yongchang Army laughed.
Qionghua masked Han Frost and shouted coldly: "Liu Jue, this life-and-death thing! It's about to die, and he still dares to speak wildly!" Then he bent his bow and arrow to Liu Jue in the distance, but the other party was only a hundred steps away from her, and her arrow only landed in front of Liu Jue's horse. Even so, it surprised Liu Jue.
Liu Jue was furious and scolded, "Bitch is ignorant! When I break the city, I will let the army ravage you. Then I see if you are still as proud as you are now!" Then he shouted, "Siege the city!" The sound of war drums rumbled. Yongchang Army carried the simple ladder and rushed towards the city wall.
At this time, the three-bow crossbow on the city wall fired a powerful gun arrow, causing shocking flesh and blood among the crowd! The Yongchang army rushed to the city, quickly set up a ladder, and began to attack the city! The officers and soldiers of Zhurong on the city immediately used a hook and sickle spear to lift the other party's ladder and then pushed it out. They saw ladders overturning and smashing towards the ground, and countless Yongchang soldiers fell down like raindrops! The Yongchang army attacked fiercely for a long time, not only failed to attack the city, but also suffered a lot of losses! Liu Jue was anxious and annoyed when he saw that his army could not break the city for a long time!
