It is now the third day that Lu Zhi led his troops to siege Lishicheng. {shukeju com} Go to read the novel... Shukeju~House & In three days, Lu Zhi once commanded the Northern Army besieged on all sides to launch two fierce attacks on Lishicheng, but ultimately failed to achieve the expected results.

The siege side, the remaining soldiers who can fight in the 70,000 Northern Army are now less than 60,000; the 14,000 vanguard army lost 3,000 combat personnel, and the rest are also beginning to show a tired expression. The four-to-one casualty ratio of the offensive and defensive sides fully demonstrates the strong combat power of the Northern Army, and also shows the tenacious fighting style of the vanguard army. Most of the more than 10,000 soldiers lost by the Northern Army were killed, and a few were seriously injured, and the minor ones were almost difficult to see; the 3,000 soldiers lost by the vanguard army were mostly injured, and a few were killed. Moreover, because the medical staff responsible for treating the wounded soldiers in Lishi City were fully prepared, as long as they were not sacrificed on the spot, even if they were disabled in the future, they could still save their lives.

Lu Zhi was very dissatisfied with the results of the siege in the past few days. The tenacity and ferocity of the vanguard army exceeded his imagination. It seemed that he underestimated the great appeal of Zhao Xing's personal position in Lishi. Zhao Xing was not satisfied with the results of the defensive results in the past few days. Although the vanguard army fought bravely and did not allow any enemy to cross the city, the continuous casualties still made him feel distressed.

Lu Zhi and Zhao Xing now understand one result. If the fight continues like this, the final result is that the soldiers of the offensive and defensive sides will fight to the last person, leaving only the main generals to fight face to the face. This ending of a desperate battle is a result that neither of them wants to see. Therefore, Lu Zhi began to slow down the pace of siege on the fourth day and no longer required the soldiers to climb the city to fight desperately. He just fired an arrow on the periphery and threw some stones on the city wall with a stone-capping machine. The soldiers guarding the city also took advantage of this to rest. As long as the northern army under the city does not climb to the city, they will hide under the female wall to wipe their weapons and not fight back.

Lu Zhi knew that the reason why he could organize nearly 500,000 troops to fight against Zhao was that no one of the princes could resist the encirclement of nearly 200,000 elite troops of the imperial central army, and felt that it would be beneficial to capture Bingzhou, so everyone sent people to help with the war. {shukeju com} Just read the novel... Book_Homestay! If the Central Army lost all its elite troops after this battle, then the ultimate advantage was the princes. It would be better to keep Zhao Xing's family as the dominant family, which would be cost-effective to shock the situation north of the Yellow River.

Since Lishi City is so difficult to attack, Lu Zhi simply stopped and waited for the result of the siege in Huangfu Song, Cao Cao and Sun Jian. If these two armies had captured the city one by one, Lu Zhi would lead his army to withdraw into the occupied city without hesitation, and attack Bingzhou again after the flowers bloom next spring. As for food and supplies, as long as he occupied a city in Bingzhou, he would have a generous reward. Moreover, he could collect food and grass from the people in the occupied Bingzhou area under the banner of the court. I believe that most ordinary people still dare not disobey the will of the court.

As the war reached this level, Zhao Xing estimated that it had reached the end. According to the original strategic concept, Bingzhou would pick up several local princes in the coalition army with a certain degree of strength, and give a lesson to the princes who came to challenge Zhao. As for Huangfu Song, Zhu Jun and Lu Zhi, Zhao Xing did not have the ability to eat them all, nor did he intend to eat them. Zhao Xing was preparing to adopt Xu Shu's suggestion and let the new emperor in the Luoyang Palace force the three military leaders to withdraw their troops through political channels.

Zhao Xing had written a letter to Liu Bian. The general meaning of the letter was: I was the only one who turned the tide. In the era of plague, I saved millions of people in the northern states in danger. This allowed the court south of the Yellow River to completely quell the Yellow Turban civil strife and get rest. Now, as the new emperor, you not only did not reward me, but you actually believed in the slander of others and ordered Lu Zhi and others to be besieged Bingzhou. It was really heartbreaking! I had no intention of rebellion, but now I was forced to be desperate by you. Now I am ready to support the third son of Emperor Ling, Liu Rong, and the emperor, and annex Liangzhou, Jizhou, Youzhou and even the Sanhans north of the Yellow River, and then headed south to Luoyang City to face you in person!

At the end of the letter, Zhao Xing changed his pen and his tone gradually calmed down. He also said: I really don’t want to take this step, but if I live in another place, how should the emperor deal with it? Is it really awaiting death? If the emperor can relieve his past grudges and order Lu Zhi to return to the court, then I can support the third prince as the King of Jin and obey the third prince’s orders in the future. In this way, the court will protect its face and Bingzhou will also relieve the crisis. What does the emperor think?

To put it bluntly, Zhao Xing's letter is a purely intimidating letter, but it is just a varied word and language. I believe that Liu Bian, who has been well-educated since childhood, can clearly see the determination of Bingzhou and Zhao Xing's fearlessness from Zhao Xing's lines.

The letter was written, and the question now is, who will deliver the letter to Liu Bian? If it weren't for Liu Bian to see it in person, for example, by Liu Bei, Zhao Xing could conclude that the big-eared thief would definitely burn the letter quietly. If someone with average skills sent to sneak into Luoyang, he would have been cut into pieces by Wang Yue's apprentice before he could get close to the emperor.

Wang Yue's status has increased so much that he is no longer as depressed as before. As the new emperor's martial arts teacher, and has been secretly protecting Liu Bian, Wang Yue has been treated and promoted and used by the new emperor. It can be said that the two people Liu Bian trusted the most are Liu Bei, and the martial one is Wang Yue. Wang Yue and his eldest disciple Shi A are two, who are on shifts day and night to protect the emperor, and it is difficult for ordinary people to approach or assassinate.

Zhao Xingsi thought about it over and over again, and was able to avoid the attacks of Wang Yue and Shi A and successfully meet the emperor's candidates, which was really hard to find. It was probably only Zhao Yun and Dian Wei could do it, and others, including Lu Bu and Guan Yu, might not be able to do it. Just when Zhao Xing was frowning for the candidate for the messenger, a letter from his fourth brother Zhao Yun made him smile, and the expression on his face was like a weasel slipping into the chicken cage.

Zhao Yun's letter mentioned that his mentor Tong Yuan suddenly came to Huguan a few days ago and revealed to him that Zhang Yan in Heishan might send troops to harass Bingzhou. As a result, Zhang Yan really appeared in the area of ​​Shufu Mountain. Now the master has left and seems to be interested in going to Wohu City. He suggested that Zhao Xing secretly explain to Li Jinsi and ask Wohu City to do a good job of entertainment. After all, Tong Daxia is also half of Zhao Xing's master.

Zhao Xing hasn't encountered a beautiful thing about someone giving a pillow when he came to sleep for a long time. When he saw Zhao Yun's letter, he immediately had an idea. Although he could not return to Shangdang now and met this master he had never met in person, isn't there a group of women in Wohu City? Especially among these women, there is also Li Yuping, who had met Tong Yuan, who could definitely play a key role this time.

Without further ado, Zhao Xing quickly wrote a secret letter and handed it to the messenger beside him, instructing him to start sending information to the shadow team members lurking in the distance after dark after it was dark.

Speaking of Zhao Xing's means of sending intelligence, it is really unheard of. He specially trained a group of shadow team members who sent and received signals and used the most primitive Morse code. He not only lit two piles of fire at the top of the city, used a wooden board to constantly cover or open one of the fires, and passed information to the shadow team members hidden in the distance in front of the enemy under the city. As for how the shadow team members in the distance transmit the information outside to the top of the city, they will specifically explain it when they encounter it in the future.

Those who are a little familiar with Morse Code should know that didn’t the early telegrams send messages through signals of o and 1? When two piles of fires are lit at the same time, it is 1; when one pile of fires is lit, it is o; when two piles of fires are extinguished, it means that the sending message is over...

Even if Lu Zhi is Jiang Ziya's rebirth, can he know what the Morse code from later generations is going on? Let's share
