Not long after, Xiang Liang and others came to the city wall and saw more than 10,000 "friendly troops" of Liu Ji's troops running away from the city, and they couldn't help but boo.

It turns out... the people who came down from the city were really Liu Ji from Pei County.

Uncle and nephew Xiang Liang's nose was stumbled.

"General Xiang, I am Liu Ji. I hope to open the city gate and let me wait to enter the city."

Liu Ji shouted under the city, looking very bald.

Xiang Liang immediately replied to the city: "Liu Ji, I heard that the Qin army only has 30,000 cavalry, why can't your troops stand firm for even a day? Is he defeated?"

Liu Ji said: "The Qin army was invading 30,000 troops, and our troops had only 10,000 troops, and the people were dispersed. Even if our troops defended Gucheng, they would be defeated sooner or later. Therefore, they simply abandoned the city and defected to General Xiang. Only in this way can the two armies be united, will they still have a chance of victory."

"What? You just abandoned the city!"

Everyone on the city wall was stunned.

It was the first time they heard that they had abandoned the city and ran away before they even fought.

Liu Ji nodded: "Yes, Buqicheng, I can't leave even if I want to leave. Could it be that I will stay there and wait for death?"

"……………” Xiang Liang and others looked dark.

Liu Ji forced himself to abandon the city and escape, but he was even more confident. If he were his subordinates, Xiang Liang would definitely be beheaded by this coward now.

However, if you think about it carefully, what Liu Ji said makes a lot of sense.

If he did not abandon the city, Peixian would not be able to defend it, and it would be a matter of time before the city was broken. Therefore, they now abandoned the city and went to their place. Although it was a bit bad, it was indeed the smartest way to do it.

After all, the two armies are united, and the forces are more than those of the Qin army, and they are still defending Gucheng, so the Qin army's 30,000 cavalry can do anything.

Thinking of this, Xiang Liang could not refute Liu Ji's shameless reason.

So he turned around and asked everyone around him: "Look, should you let them into the city?"

Xiang Bo said: "Since they are friendly troops, we should let them enter the city. After all, our troops are limited. Now that they are here, there will be 30,000 troops with one more unit, so you will have no worries to defend the city."

Long Qi and Xiang Yu also nodded in agreement.

However, Long Qi did not forget to remind him: "There are more than 10,000 people in Liu Ji's army, which is comparable to ours. If you let him enter the city today, General Xiang must be on guard against him in the future."

Xiang Liang nodded and said, "General Long said, but now that the Qin army is coming to attack, there is no need to worry that he is rebellious."

Xiang Bo also agreed: "Yes, now is the time to strengthen our power. Liu Ji's troops come to invest, at least the benefits are more than disadvantages for me at the moment."

Everyone nodded.

Seeing that everyone had no objection, Xiang Liang ordered his subordinates: "Open the city gate and let them enter the city!"

Soon, the gate of Xiaxiang County opened.

Xiang Liang said: "General Liu wants to join forces to resist Qin, so I, Xiang Liang, naturally, welcome him. Please invite General Liu to enter the city!"

However……

Liu Ji glanced at the open city gate, but did not enter the city immediately. Instead, he smiled and said, "General Xiang, I, Liu Ji, defected to General Xiang on the day of the day, just to join forces to fight against Qin. After the Qin army repelled, I will lead the troops back to my Pei County. What do you want?"

The smile on Xiang Liang's face froze and he became unhappy.

Long Qi on the side said, "General, you can agree to him first. After repelling the Qin army, you can find a way to recruit Liu Ji's troops. If he can take the people away, he will not be able to do so."

Everyone looked at each other and smiled.

Xiang Liang also smiled and nodded, then shouted to the city: "General Liu, don't worry, everything is the main plan to resist Qin. As long as you work together to resist Qin, you and I are friendly forces."

"Then thank General Xiang!" Liu Ji seemed to feel relieved when he heard this, so he waved his hand and led his subordinates into the city.

…………

"General Liu, what is going on in Pei County?"

When Liu Ji and others entered the city, Xiang Liang started asking questions directly.

Liu Ji replied truthfully: "Today, our troops found out that Li Yang, the Prime Minister of the Qin Dynasty, personally led 30,000 cavalry to come straight to my Pei County. This man was so cunning, and he brought the five hundred Yulin Army to scold me under my city, trying to lead us out of the city. Fortunately, my subordinates found a frightened bird flying in the woods outside the city. They guessed that 30,000 cavalry were ambushing outside the city, so they did not leave the city. Otherwise, I guess all more than 10,000 people would have to be thrown under the city."

"Oh? Although this person is a civil servant, he knows the power of the cavalry when he uses military forces." Xiang Liang sighed.

Liu Ji nodded and said, "I originally wanted to hold Gucheng, but... General Xiang didn't know anything. My troops were distorted. For the past half month, hundreds of people have escaped from the city every day. Now that the Qin army is at the city, people are even more anxious. I, Liu Ji, have only more than 10,000 people left. I, Liu Ji, are worried that if I keep holding on, everyone will escape and cannot hold on at all, so I simply abandoned the city and went straight to General Xiang."

Xiang Liang deeply felt this, and there was no doubt that the reason why Liu Ji left the city and fled.

"Report!"

At this moment, the spy sent to Pei County had also returned and reported: "Reporting to General Xiang, Li Yang's five hundred soldiers, scaring away Liu Ji's troops in Pei County..."

Speaking of this, the spy also found that Liu Ji was right in front of him and was stunned.

Xiang Liang said: "If there is no other military information, please retreat!"

The spy paused for a moment and then said, "Reported to General Xiang, according to investigation, Li Yang personally led 30,000 cavalry this time, which was not the truth, but a mysterious move."

At this moment, everyone frowned and said in surprise: "What did you say?"

The spy said: "According to investigations, Li Yang does not have 30,000 cavalry, but in fact only 500 Yulin Army."

"Only five...five hundred Yulin Army?"

Everyone opened their mouths in shock, wondering if their ears were wrong.

Xiang Yu didn't believe it now and scolded: "How can military information be a joke?"

Liu Ji also sneered: "This joke is really big. A prime minister who comes from Xianyang will only bring five hundred soldiers?"

The spy said: "I didn't believe it at all, but after repeated investigations, I found that Li Yang was indeed only bringing five hundred Yulin Army, and the so-called 30,000 Iron Cavalry did not exist at all."

"How is this... possible!"

Everyone still couldn't believe that Li Yang went to fight to quell the rebellion and brought 500 people, which was too ridiculous.

Xiang Bo said: "Li Yang only brought 500 people to come, which is absolutely impossible. Maybe he hid 30,000 iron cavalry somewhere?"

Liu Ji immediately said: "It must have been hidden. Today, Li Yang hid 30,000 cavalry in the woods outside Pei County, and only brought 500 people to my city to challenge. It is normal for your people not to find the 30,000 army."

Everyone nodded and agreed with Liu Ji's words.

But……

The spy said, "General Liu is wrong. After I explored it, the ones hidden in the woods outside Pei County today are not 30,000 iron cavalry, but 3,000 local defenders in Dongyang County!"

"What?"

This time, even Liu Ji was shocked and his eyes almost fell out.

The spy said: "Li Yang used a suspicious plan to you. He transferred 3,000 defenders from Dongyang County to run through the woods outside Pei County, causing shocked birds to fly up, making General Liu think he has 30,000 cavalry ambushed outside the city, but General Liu... he fell into his plan and left the city and fled."

Liu Ji was shocked, but he couldn't believe it, and shook his head and said, "This... this is impossible, you must have made a mistake!"

The spy said with certainty: "Military information, how dare the young man speak nonsense? I saw Wang Youxian, the governor of Dongyang County, and brought three thousand local defenders out of the woods. There would be no mistake in this matter."

Ga!

Liu Ji was stunned and his chin was shocked.

Everyone also looked at Liu Ji stupidly...

So... this guy was so scared by five hundred people that he left the city and fled?

Suddenly, everyone looked at Liu Ji like a fool.
