Chapter 227 Decision
Cen Water.
Liu Yi was planning and ordered Huang Zhong to direct people to cut down trees, but he saw Guan Ping who had just left was back again, and he also brought a soldier who looked dusty, somewhat familiar, and was a soldier from Mocheng.
"Sir!" Seeing Liu Yi, the soldier knelt down on the ground with a thud: "Sir, save General Wen Chang."
"Wen Chang?" Liu Yi was stunned when he heard this and asked hurriedly: "What happened?"
"Mr. Hui." The general said: "General Wei led his troops to break through Mianyang ten days ago and sent troops to repel the troops sent by Zhang Lu..."
The soldier general Wei Yan defeated Mianyang and captured Yang Bai, which attracted Zhang Lu's main force. He said it all.
"In other words, Zhang Lu's main force arrived in Mianyang five days ago? The main general is Yang Ren?" Liu Yi frowned and said, "How is this person capable?"
The name Yang Ren is quite strange, and Liu Yi has never heard of it. If he is just as useless as Yang Bai, with Wei Yan's ability to break 8,000 and his advantage, and he has the advantage of the city, it should not be a problem to hold on to Liu Bei's army, right?
"The general said that Yang Ren's ability is not inferior to that of the general." The general bowed and said.
Hiss ~
Liu Yi couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he heard this. Wei Yan was still clear that less than two thousand people around him dared to destroy Zhao Fan's reinforcements first, kill Han Xuan, and then lead his troops to attack the hinterland of Lingling and capture Liu Du alive.
Even if he didn't know history, Wei Yan was outstanding in terms of his ability and courage. Moreover, Liu Yi knew better that Wei Yan was a man with a sense of arrogance in his bones. Unless a person with real ability, he would not take a look at him. He said that his ability was not inferior to him, which means that Wei Yan himself recognized Yang Ren very much. Even if there was a gap, it would not be too big.
Now the generals of both sides have similar abilities, but their troops are ten times smaller!
Liu Yi turned his head and looked at Guan Ping beside him and said, "Full it, if you come to guard, two thousand to twenty thousand, and the other general is Wen Chang, how many days can you guard?"
"This..." Guan Ping was a little difficult to answer when he heard this. Ten times the force of the troops was not a strong city, so he couldn't answer for a while.
Liu Yi ordered someone to call Huang Zhong over to see Huang Zhong’s suggestions.
"It depends on whether Wen Chang can deceive the enemy generals." Huang Zhong said in a slight sense: "If the opponent thinks there are many soldiers in the city and dare not attack with all his strength, it would be fine, but if the opponent explores the truth and strength of the situation, with Wen Chang's troops in his hand, it is a small city, it may be able to defend for two or three days or even shorter."
In other words, we need to see if the enemy generals are the kind of cautious and cautious people.
Liu Yi sat down without saying a word, but just carefully considered the interests.
Huang Zhong groped out his beard and said, "But even if he could deceive him, Wen Chang's baggage was limited. Once the arrows were exhausted and he was suppressed, the other general had some experience and could quickly understand the reality."
"How long has the enemy been besieging the city?" Huang Zhong said, looking at the general and said.
"Before Bei Zhi left the city, the other party had not yet besieged the city." The soldier bowed and said.
Huang Zhong pondered: "Even so, it will take five days to count. I'm afraid the opponent has seen through it. Whether the opponent's commander returns immediately or attacks Mianyang, it will be a waste of effort for Wen Chang to work like this. It would be fine if the opponent only returns to Nan Zheng. If he attacks fiercely, Wen Chang will probably not be able to survive for a day."
After all, it has been five days, and Wei Yan probably has no arrow clusters. In this way, he can only fight with one hand. The advantage of the city has been weakened to the maximum. It is a miracle to defend the city with only flesh and blood.
The biggest problem is that it will take at least ten days for Liu Bei's main troops to arrive. Now it seems that Wei Yan will definitely not be able to hold on to Liu Bei's arrival.
"Let Wen Chang break through!" Huang Zhong sighed and looked at Liu Yi and said, "This is a wonderful move, but because he didn't do it well in time, Wei Yan walked too fast."
Liu Yi suddenly looked at the soldier and said, "Are you sure that most of Nanzheng's troops have already gone to Mianyang?"
"What the general said in person." The soldier nodded.
"If you go back, if you have the chance, please inform Wen Chang to break through. No matter what the situation of the battle is, it doesn't matter." Liu Yi took a deep breath and looked at the soldier and said solemnly.
Judging from the current situation, no matter how many days Wei Yan can defend, it is already a matter of time before the city is broken. If you defend it, you will not be able to support Liu Bei's army. Instead, you may lose your life in vain and sacrifice meaninglessly. There is no need. The worst result is that after Liu Bei's army arrives, they will take steps to capture Hanzhong bit by bit.
Although this has increased the variables, Liu Yi does not want Wei Yan to die here for a Hanzhong. He does not say anything nonsense that it is easy to get a general but difficult to find. In terms of emotions, as a half-mocheng person, following Liu Yi along the way, the relationship between them is not comparable to others. Liu Yi does not want Wei Yan to die. With Wei Yan's ability, breaking through should not be a problem.
"Here!" The soldier agreed after hearing this, and did not stay for a long time. After bowing to Liu Yi, he turned around and left.
"Sir, don't think about it." Huang Zhong seemed to see Liu Yi's thoughts, sighed, patted Liu Yi's shoulder and said, "Even if most of the main force left, there are thousands of troops in the Nanzheng garrison. Now we only have more than 500 people, which is impossible."
"If you break the city, you may not have to attack hard!" Liu Yi shook his head. He was really unwilling to give up such a good opportunity. He hoped to win Hanzhong in full. Originally, Wei Yan attracted the main army of Hanzhong in Mianyang. This was an excellent opportunity. However, Wei Yan ran too fast and Liu Bei's progress did not keep up. It would be difficult to have such an opportunity again once he went away.
"Sir, do you have a clever plan?" Huang Zhong said after hearing this.
"Where are so many clever plans in this world? No matter how good the plan is, it depends on the people's treatment." Liu Yi shook his head and said, "What if Yang Ren has seen the truth of Wen Chang?"
"Even if you can't return immediately, you will send someone to inform Nan Zheng immediately and prepare early." Huang Zhong pondered.
"If the lord's army arrived in Nanzheng at this time, would Zhang Lu panic?" Liu Yi asked.
"This..." Huang Zhong shook his head and said, "I don't know."
If Liu Zhang had been transferred, the main force might be surrendered directly, but Zhang Lu was not Liu Zhang, so maybe this would be possible. Besides, Liu Bei's army would not be able to catch up for a while!
"Then let's take a gamble!" Liu Yi gritted his teeth. This decision was not easy for him, because this decision represents a risk. Liu Yi has always considered his own safety first.
"Gambling?" Huang Zhong looked at Liu Yi in confusion. They only had 500 people now, how to bet?
"Sir, we only have 500 people!" Guan Ping, who was standing beside him, reminded.
"I know." Liu Yi nodded and said, "But I didn't say I had to rely on five hundred people to attack the city. I just need..."
After pondering for a while, Liu Yi looked at the two and said, "If you use five hundred people, you will make the illusion of ten thousand people. Even if you don't help, Zhang Lu will transfer Yang Ren back!"
It is impossible for five hundred people to make a vocal 10,000 people!
Huang Zhong and Guan Ping frowned and looked at Liu Yi.
"Take out all the money, build ships, operate one person per ship, and make the feeling of continuously transporting troops from the Censhui River." Liu Yisai said. He had not much money left on the construction of the military camp along the way. If all five hundred people were hired, it would be at most three days, but now, he doesn't care about that much.
"Fifteen miles away from Nanzheng, I am a vanguard camp of one or three thousand people. Can three hundred people make a formation of three thousand people?" Liu Yi looked at the two and said.
Huang Zhong and Guan Ping hesitated when they heard this, and could not guarantee it.
"Try it, it's better than doing nothing!" Liu Yi decided to make a handsome flag first. He had never done it before. I wonder if the handsome flag could show some bluffing attributes?
Seeing that Liu Yi had made up his mind and was not good to persuade him, Huang Zhong and Guan Ping summoned the people, and Liu Yi distributed coins one by one, and then ordered people to log and build ships. The flags of the commander and the small flags of generals at all levels were brought to do it. Liu Yi personally brought people to do it.
Liu Yi decided to use Guan Yu's name as a pioneer. Zhang Lu may not know who is here, and Guan Yu's name is quite famous and has a certain deterrent effect.
It is not difficult to make the handsome flag, including sewing the flag, which Liu Yi could make. In just a quarter of an hour, with the help of several soldiers, the handsome flag of the Hanshouting Hou was prepared.
Hanshouting Hou Shuaiqi: power +34, power +32, shock +35,
Three attributes are pretty good!
At present, Liu Yi brought people to make more than a hundred flags, and there were some bonuses in terms of momentum, but those with confusing attributes did not appear.
While Liu Yi ordered people to log wood to prepare for the establishment of a camp, he commanded people to start building a ship. In the afternoon, with the special ability granted by the system, he built more than 70 mother and child ships. Seeing that the night was getting dark, Liu Yi did not let someone rest. Instead, he quickly took the boat and carried the wood to the outside of Nanzheng City. He built a camp based on gossip that could accommodate 3,000 people overnight outside Nanzheng City.
Pioneer Barracks: Bluff +33, mist +34, power +32, solid +35, high morale +31
"Full it, I can only give you three hundred people!" Liu Yi finally breathed a sigh of relief when he looked at the property of the camp. The next step was to build more ships: "I'll be back tomorrow morning!"
"Don't worry sir!" Guan Ping agreed upon hearing this.
Liu Yi didn't talk nonsense and rushed back to the valley overnight. He also wanted to be a straw man. Generally speaking, straw man is easily seen through during the day, but the things Liu Yi made generally have lifelike attributes. In addition, the attributes of the military camp are so I hope I can get away with it.
Overnight, Liu Yi led the remaining two hundred soldiers to kill more than 2,000 straw men, and then placed them one by one on the boat. The sky gradually became brighter at this time.
In Nanzheng City, Zhang Lu had just woken up and someone came to report that a military camp of Liu Bei's army appeared fifteen miles outside the city. At that moment, Zhang Lu, who was originally a little confused, suddenly woke up.
Chapter completed!
