Chapter 310: The soldiers are under the city, the lips are dead and the teeth are cold
A day later, Li Zaigu and Feng Ang led a large army and arrived at the city of Xinyi.
In accordance with Li Zaigu's suggestion, Feng Ang sent General Shi and his confidant general to lead 3,000 troops to ambush the way from Tan'e County to Xinyi County to prevent the rebels from supporting Xinyi County.
Li Zaigu and Feng Ang led 5,000 troops to the city of Xinyi to launch an attack on Xinyi.
In order to prevent other rebels from taking the opportunity to attack the base camp, Feng Ang left 2,000 troops to guard the base camp, thus squandering his worries.
At this time, there were still six or seven thousand troops in Xinyi City, and the number of soldiers was more than that of Feng Ang's soldiers.
but!
In terms of morale, the soldiers under Fu San's command were much lower than those under Feng Ang's command.
Feng Ang had no confidence in attacking Xinyi City at first, but after listening to Li Zaigu's plan, his confidence increased greatly.
Li Zaigu's plan was to siege Xinyi City with five thousand soldiers, cut off all retreat routes in Xinyi City, and trap Xinyi City.
Li Zaigu believed that although Fu San had more troops than Feng Ang's, he did not dare to fight at will, and would only want to use the solid walls of Xinyi City to resist.
Li Zaigu knew that it was not impossible to directly attack. Although a strong attack also had the possibility of winning, he would also suffer a lot of losses.
One thousand hurts the enemy and one hundred hurts oneself.
Li Zaigu does not do such a loss-making business.
Therefore, Li Zaigu discussed with Feng Ang and surrounded the city of Xinyi with five thousand soldiers. As long as he helped San dare to come out to fight, he could easily defeat him.
If Fu San dared not fight, he would trap him in Xinyi City.
If Fu San and his soldiers are trapped in the city, it will not take long to eat and drink, and the soldiers' fighting spirit will gradually fade away. In the end, the soldiers' willpower will be damaged and war-weary will arise.
At this moment, there was a mess in Xinyi City.
In the conference hall, Fu San looked solemn.
"Now that the enemy troops are at the city, please come up with a solution to it!" Fu San said in a heavy tone.
The cave owner and general sitting in the conference hall also looked solemn and talked a lot. For a moment, no one had any good suggestions.
"King, let the master of this cave lead 3,000 elite troops out of the city to resist the enemy!" A thick man with a wide mouth, thick lips, a beast hat, and a few pheasant hairs inserted into it shouted, "This cave mainly takes off Feng Ang's head and lets the court know that we are powerful!"
"It's not appropriate, it's not appropriate!" Cen's counselor narrowed his eyes and said thoughtfully.
"Why is it inappropriate?" Fu San asked.
"Report to the king, my subordinates believe that only by relying on the city wall and the advantage of the territory can we defend the city. If we send troops rashly, we may not be our opponents of the enemy." Talent Cen said slowly.
"You are trying to increase your ambition and destroy your own might!" said the owner of the cave with wide mouth and thick lips disdainfully.
"This is not to gain others' ambition to destroy one's own might, but to be cautious, and to plan for the time being." Talent Cen glanced at the cave master and said disapprovingly, "I forgot how other strongholds were broken? I forgot how thousands of soldiers and horses of the Thunder Cave master were wiped out before? If he fought head-on with the enemy, he would probably not be his opponent."
"If you are afraid of death, you will stay in the city. I am not afraid of this cave master!" The cave master with a wide mouth and thick lips said coldly, "Even if this cave master dies, he will die with the enemy!"
"If you are brave and fearless of death, you will ignore your life and death." Cen Moushi said.
"You are going to die, I will never stop you!" Fu San's face darkened and he said to the cave master with anger, "But I will not allow you to lead others to die!"
The face of the cave owner with a wide mouth and thick lips changed. It was obvious that Fu San did not agree with him leading his troops out of the city to fight to the death with the enemy.
He was resentful, but he was helpless.
"Do you have any other ideas? You might as well say it out and discuss it together." Fu San turned and glanced at the others and said loudly.
"The subordinates think that people should be sent to Tan'e County immediately and requested the Tan'e City coalition forces to come and support." The cave master surnamed Lan thought for a while and said cautiously.
"Well, the Lord of Blue Cave is reasonable!" Fu San did not think much and agreed.
Many people nodded and expressed their approval.
"King, I have a concern." Talent Cen touched his beard, looking scheming and concise.
"What are your concerns sir?" Fu San asked anxiously.
"I am worried that the Tan'e City coalition forces will not come to support me." Cen Moushi said.
"Why?" Fu San asked.
"There are two reasons." Cen Shi said calmly, "One is that the Tane City coalition forces will not rashly send troops to support for their own interests; the other is that the Tane City coalition forces may be concerned about the ambush of the imperial court, and will not rashly send troops to support for it."
"Sir, I am very worried. I believe that the Tane City coalition forces will never abandon Xinyi City and ignore it. If Xinyi City is not protected, Tane City cannot be protected. If the lips and teeth are cold, the sir should understand the principle of "Fu San said disapprovingly."
"The king's words are reasonable, and the Tan'e City coalition forces will never ignore us." Someone immediately said.
"That's right! We are equal to the Tan'e City coalition forces having a common agreement. As long as there is something wrong with either side, the other side will send troops to support it!" Someone said.
After hearing their words, Shi Cen felt a little embarrassed and felt that he might be really worried.
He thought for a moment, coughed dryly, "What the king said is reasonable! I hope the Tane City coalition forces are like the king, understand the principle of cold lips and teeth."
Fu San ignored Shin Cen, changed his subject and said to everyone: "After darkness, I will send someone to steal out of the city to find the Tan'e City coalition. In addition, you must strengthen your defense and never let the enemy find an opportunity to take advantage of!"
"As for your order!" everyone responded.
It was late at night, and several men in black jumped out of Xinyi City. They carefully circumvented the imperial tent, bypassed the imperial checkpoints, bypassed the imperial soldiers, and headed towards Tan'e City.
Instead of walking on the main road, they entered a small but few mountain road.
It is said that it is a mountain road, but it is actually no longer a road.
The mountain road is covered with weeds and the road surface is no longer recognized.
However, they are familiar with this area and often hunt nearby, and can still find the mountain road.
After entering the small mountain road, they walked a long way. When they reached a hill, they suddenly found that there were a few more people in front of them.
They were shocked and turned around quickly, but when they turned around, they found that there were a few more people behind them.
They realized that something was wrong and wanted to scatter and escape from both sides, but there were a few more people on both sides.
It was obvious that they were surrounded.
"Don't hurt his life, you must catch it!" someone suddenly shouted loudly.
"As for order!" the others responded immediately.
Not long after, one of the men in black died, two injured, and one of them was caught.
In addition to the dead man in black, three men in black were caught.
The three men in black were caught in Feng Ang's military camp, and they were all killed by a little.
They were ordered by Fu San to go to Tan'e City to bring reinforcements.
After listening to their confession, Feng Ang ordered them to be killed, but Li Zaigu pleaded for them and temporarily spared their lives.
