Chapter 600 Unexpected Soldiers
Outside Jixian City, there are many army, drums are sounding like thunder and horns are always bright.
A big star was clattering in the sky.
Tens of thousands of troops of Jizhou were standing, with great momentum and magnificent.
Wang Lei sat in a carriage and looked at the county town of Ji County from a distance. This city is not only the seat of a county, but also the seat of a state. Under the construction of Liu Yu and Gongsun Zan, the city was majestic and tall, with solid and thick walls. In addition, the county town of Ji County also built a wide urn city, which greatly strengthened the defense of Ji County.
It is not easy to conquer Jixian.
Guo Jia rode a horse and stood beside Wang Lei, looking at the city, and sighed: "Ji County is different from Fanyang County, Zhuo County and other cities. It has built a urn city and has countless fortifications. It is difficult to attack Ji County forcibly."
Wang Lei asked: "What suggestions do you have for Fengxiao?"
Guo Jia replied: "We came from Zhuo County, which is now located in the west of Ji County. Here we suggest that we adopt the strategy of surrounding three and one missing one, surround the north, west and south of Ji County, leaving the east of Ji County as a gap to disrupt the determination of the soldiers of Youzhou Army to fight to the death. Moreover, if Gongsun Zan sends troops to attack the garrison in the west and south, the lord can support it at any time."
Surrounding the north, west and south directions, the soldiers in the city will think that they can escape from the east. With a way out, the soldiers of the Youzhou Army will not fight to the death. If they all surrounded them, the Youzhou Army will definitely have the intention to fight to the death when they see that they cannot escape.
Wang Lei thought for a moment and nodded, "You can adopt a strategy of missing one in three."
After a while, Wang Lei ordered: "Gan Ning!"
"The last one will be here!"
Gan Ning stood up and answered with his fists.
Wang Lei had a serious look and said in a deep voice: "You will lead 5,000 soldiers stationed outside the northern gate of Jixian County. If the Youzhou army launches an attack, be sure to hold the other party down and not let the other party break through, do you understand?"
Gan Ning clasped his fists and said, "Don't worry, lord, I will definitely complete the task."
"ugly!"
Wang Lei changed his tone and his eyes fell on Chou.
"The last one will be here!"
Ugly stands up, with sharp eyes and high fighting spirit.
Wang Lei ordered: "You will lead 5,000 soldiers to be stationed outside the city gate south of Ji County. If the Youzhou army breaks through the south gate, no matter what method is taken, it will hold the other party."
"I will obey the order!"
After being so ugly, he immediately went to dispatch troops with Gan Ning.
After the army completed the arrangement, Xu You suggested: "Lord, let's try to surrender first."
Xu You's eyes had a hint of expectation. Anyone with a discerning eye could see that the Youzhou army would definitely be defeated.
The Youzhou generals who were guarding the city were not stupid, and could understand the current situation.
Wang Lei did not refuse Xu You's suggestion and asked the soldiers to prepare a piece of cloth to write a book of surrender. The book written by Wang Lei was very simple, with only four words: "The surrendered ones will not be killed." After writing it, Wang Lei called Lu Bu and handed the cloth to Lu Bu's hand, and ordered: "General Lu, shoot the cloth that surrendered to the other party's city tower."
"promise!"
Lu Bu tied the cloth to the bow and arrow and rode his horse out.
Soon, Lu Bu came downstairs. He focused his eyes and took out a bow and arrow, and shot the arrow. With a "swoosh" sound, the bow and arrow pierced the air and ran up the city tower.
“Duh!”
The bow and arrow shot into the beams and pillars of the house on the city tower, and the tail of the arrow swayed gently.
Seeing this, Lu Bu rode his horse back.
The lieutenant guarding the city took down the bow and arrow, quickly came to Guan Jing's side, and said respectfully: "Shi Guan, this is the bow and arrow that the other party shot up the city tower, tied with a piece of cloth."
"What else can be there? It's just a book of surrender." Guan Jing flicked his sleeves and ordered: "Get a torch."
The captain immediately ordered the soldiers, and soon, the burning torch was brought over.
Guan Jing took the torch, and he was close to the female wall, stretching out his hands outside the city wall. He held the torch in one hand and the cloth removed in the other hand, lit the cloth that had not yet been viewed, and then let go and left the cloth that had been surrendered.
Arrogant and firm attitude!
This move shocked the general responsible for defense on the city tower.
From this action, they saw Guan Jing's determination.
Obviously, this battle will definitely be the end of the death. Guan Jing threw down the cloth and threw away the torch. He took a step back, stood with his hands on his back, and glanced over the county magistrate Lin Sheng, the chief general Ji Yuan, and said in a deep voice: "Wang Lei is about to order an attack and prepare for defense."
Everyone should prepare quickly.
Wang Lei was quite surprised when he saw Guan Jing's actions.
Unexpectedly, the other party could be so decisive.
Since that was the case, Wang Lei no longer hesitated. Even if Ji County is a strong city, it must be captured. Wang Lei's eyes were sharp and he ordered: "Arrowman, prepare!"
In a moment, a team of archers walked out of the military formation.
These archers were a special battalion with 800 people. The soldiers in the battalion were carefully selected elites. They approached the city, stopped twenty feet outside the city, and stood in rows.
"Prepare!"
A loud shout suddenly sounded.
"Shoot the arrow!"
In an instant, there were sounds of breaking through the air.
Nearly a thousand bows and arrows were shot out, as fast as a storm. The bows and arrows drew arcs in the air and finally landed on the city tower. Only the sound of tinging tinging sounds were heard, and bows and arrows fell on the shields held by the soldiers guarding the city.
However, soldiers were still shot by falling bows and arrows and died.
Guan Jing kept commanding and letting the soldiers resist.
The soldiers guarding the city resisted the bows and arrows shot, and the army outside the city had already taken action.
A captain under Qiu Hua led a thousand soldiers as the vanguard army and quickly approached the city wall with the help of bows and arrows. When the vanguard army approached, weapons such as siege vehicles, cloud vehicles, catapults and other weapons also slowly approached the city and played a role.
The war machine started to run high.
Wang Lei stared at the towering city wall with confidence and expectation. Gongsun Zan stayed in Jixian and did not escape. Once Gongsun Zan was taken down, the strength of the Gongsun clan in Youzhou would immediately collapse.
"Lord, look, the city gate is open."
Suddenly, Guo Jia reminded him.
Wang Lei's eyes turned and landed at the city gate.
The heavy city gate slowly opened, and then, weak people stumbled out. As the people walked out, the sounds of crying came one after another.
These people, from old men in their seventies to eighties to young children in their three or five years old.
They are all old, weak, women and children!
Guan Jing stood on the city tower and saw the old, weak and weak women and children driven out of the city gate, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. The Jizhou army came in a fierce manner, but what would happen if he encountered the old, weak and weak women and children in Ji County?
Do you just kill a bloody road regardless of the lives of the elderly, weak, women and children?
Or should I be afraid of the mouse and choose to retreat?
If Wang Lei encounters such a thing, he will have a headache.
For a moment, Guan Jing was filled with pride. He had given two orders to county magistrate Lin Sheng, one of which was to arrest the people of the city and wait for the war to come.
At the beginning of the war, Guan Jing sent out the "Shock War" he had prepared.
Chapter completed!
