Chapter 9: The Firmament Refuses the Enemy

Sima Yiqing took out his handkerchief and wiped the blood on his face and said, "Si Jun is really tricky. This time he was Qian Xiaoxing's words..."

Zheng Chang asked in confusion: "Tai Shi, didn't Lin's army start attacking behind them? Why did we withdraw our troops back?"

"No, no!" Sima Yiqing retreated to a safe place and his expression returned to normal. He said slowly: "That was the trick of Si State. It was probably Qian Xiaoxing who came out. Lin Jun must have been stopped by Si Jun. However, he deliberately shouted the sound of fighting behind Cangkong Pass and lured us to attack."

Zheng Tong still couldn't figure it out and asked, "Taoshi, how did you discover it?"

"It's actually very simple!" Sima Yiqing pointed at Cangkong Pass with a feather fan and said, "Just just now, the soldiers guarding Cangkong Pass were in an orderly manner, without any sign of panic. If the Lin army had already arrived, even if they were well-trained, they would not be without any confusion. Therefore, it must be the plan to lure the enemy by Qian Xiaoxing."

After hearing this, Zheng Tong was furious and cursed loudly: "This cunning fox! If the Grand Master had not discovered it, our 30,000 elite troops would probably have been wiped out."

Sima Yiqing shook the feather fan, but his heart was calm and he said slowly: "Victory and defeat are common in military affairs. I didn't expect that I would lose a battle as soon as I came. Qian Xiaoxing really couldn't underestimate it. I immediately counted the number of people and reported the damage to the battle immediately."

After a while, Zheng Chang finished counting and reported: "Tai Shi, this time we attacked Cangqiong Pass, we killed 3,422 people and injured 1,319 people."

After hearing this, Sima Yiqing tried his best to restrain the anger in his heart. Even so, his face still irritated. A trick to lure the enemy caused Hu army to lose nearly 5,000 people in vain, but Si Jun was not injured. He squinted his glasses and stared at Cangkongguan and said, "Qian Xiaoxing, I will definitely find this account!"

When the Zheng brothers saw Sima Yiqing's expression, they didn't dare to show off. Sima Yiqing had never been defeated in a war so miserable way. The worst was that the number of casualties tied with the opponent. This time, he lost nearly 5,000 soldiers in vain, which was indeed the first time that he had made the first pass.

Qian Xiaoxing watched this scene in Cangqiong, and wanted to eat all 30,000 Hu Jun. Unexpectedly, Hu Jun stopped fighting after attacking, and also lowered his head and thought. Did they suddenly receive news of Lin Jun being trapped? But this is impossible, but they couldn't figure out where Hu Jun saw the flaw. However, it seems that being Sima Yiqing is indeed an experienced master, it will be necessary to be careful in the future.

The three commanders of the Independent Brigade, seeing that the Hu army had retreated, came to the command building one after another. Everyone's faces were full of joy, showing the joy of defeat.

Luo Long said happily: "Chief of Staff, Hu Jun left thousands of bodies and ran away, and none of our troops lost."

Leoth laughed and said, "Before I was enough to kill, Hu Jun ran away. It's so boring!"

Qian Xiaoxing said, "The Hu army can see that our army is a trick, and we should not be underestimated. In the future, everyone will have to be scheming. Hu army is also cunning."

"Chief of Staff, why did the catapult only use the flying stones outside the sky, not the flying fire outside the sky?" Xiong Yitan was very puzzled by this. He had seen the fierceness of the fire with his own eyes.

Qian Xiaoxing replied: "Good thing, we have to keep a hand and wait for Hu Jun to have a pot next time."

After hearing this, the three of them nodded. Qian Xiaoxing was worried about catching turtles in the jar of Juma City and wondering what the situation was. He said to Luo Long: "Immediately pass the Cangqiong Pass battle report to the brigade commander of Juma City through the light to know, and ask about the other party's battle situation."

"Yes!" The three of them stepped back after hearing this.

Qian Xiaoxing felt a little desolate when he looked at the bloody Guanqian. Although these soldiers were enemies, they had parents and relatives. They lost their lives here. After thinking about it, they just shook their heads helplessly. The war was really ruthless, so he ordered that if Hu Jun came to collect the body, they would not attack again, so that these people could be buried.

This time, the Hu army sent 100,000 troops, and it was very powerful, but it was not easy to take down Cangkong Pass. This time, Sima Yiqing was the commander of Si army. If the Si army wanted to eliminate the 100,000 Hu army, it was not as easy as Hu Baojin's leadership. It seemed that this was an arduous and protracted battle, and Qian Xiaoxing was also prepared.

Speaking of which, after the information was transmitted through several light transfer stations, it was handed to Lu Shengzhong. The Si Jun successfully blocked the Hu army's attack at Cangqiong Pass and annihilated more than 3,000 Hu army's battle report, which finally made Lu Shengzhong's big stone hanging in his heart finally land.

Cangkong Pass has successfully completed the task of blocking the enemy. The next step is to see his siege. When Lu Shengzhong thought of this, he seemed to have a more arduous responsibility on his shoulders and must not have any problems with him. So he inspected the soldiers more carefully, and became more serious about the Lin army besieging Jima City, and did not dare to make any omissions.

That night, just like Qian Xiaoxing predicted, Lin Jun really wanted to break through with the cover of night, but Lu Shengzhong was prepared. The bonfires around the city lined up in a row, and the blazing flames illuminated every place. Lin Jun had no chance at all. When Ma Hua saw this scene, he was still a little scared when he thought about the massacre during the day. These cavalry are currently the most elite troops of Lin State, and every soldier is strictly selected. Should we let these elite soldiers die here?

Ma Hua stood on the city wall and looked at Si Jun who was waiting for the battle below. He was very hesitant. He originally wanted to break through, but after thinking about it, he shook his head. If he broke through outside the city with bright lights, it would be no different from dying. Seeing the strong soldiers behind him, they were dejected and had no fighting spirit because they had been hungry for a day and a night, and they had no confidence in breaking through.

"General Ma, what should we do now?" the deputy general looked at Ma Hua and asked helplessly.

Ma Hua sighed and said, "Let's see it tomorrow. I hope Lin Guo knows the news that we are trapped and sends troops to rescue us."

The deputy general wanted to say that the soldiers were so hungry, but when he saw Ma Hua's sad expression, he thought about it and he would not add any worries to him. He still didn't say anything at the end of his mouth, shook his head and retreated.

After spending the night safely, Lu Shengzhong finally let go of his heart. He thought that if he could siege Lin's army for less time, the risk of being broken through would be reduced by one point. He was afraid that Lin's troops would come to rescue him, so he thought of a plan and ordered the soldiers to implement it early in the morning.

I saw that the Huotou soldiers cooked a lot of pots of white rice, placed them in rows in front of the city gate, and a few whole sheep were roasted next to it. The golden color was still squeaking oil, and the fragrance scattered everywhere.

The fat and fat soldier held a rice spoon in his hand and made a trumpet with one hand and shouted to Juma City: "Brothers of Lin Kingdom, come out and have a meal! As long as you put down your weapons, we will provide white rice and roast the whole lamb for you to eat!"

Lin Jun on the city wall saw the white rice and roasted whole lamb, staring at the hungry green eyes, and immediately felt even more hungry. He couldn't help but lick his lips, smash his mouth, and imagined the scene of eating those meals.

"I've been hungry for a day. The emperor is not short of hungry soldiers. Why are you fighting when you are hungry? Come out quickly!" The fire-headed soldier continued to shout.

Seeing that the shouting was not loud enough, Lu Shengzhong called 20 or 30 people and asked them to shout together. The soldiers shouted: "Brothers of Lin Country! Put down your weapons and give up your weapons and eat!"

Dozens of people shouted together, and the voice suddenly came from afar. When the soldiers of Lin, who were sitting in the city were sparsely tilted, they heard it. Many soldiers were so hungry that they were powerless. When they heard it, they immediately said angrily: "I can't break through the siege and fight. Does General Ma really want to starve us to death?"

"Yes, I still have an elderly mother, who starves to death here. What should I do?" Another soldier also sighed.

Another soldier seemed to have made a decision and stood up and said, "You can't starve to death like this. Let's go to General Ma!"

"Yes, if we go to the battlefield to kill the enemy, we didn't blink, but starving to death like this is nothing. Let's go find General Ma!" Everyone agreed and immediately walked towards Ma Hua's residence.
