Chapter 1307: Heavy Rain

When the news reached Chang Yu, he was chatting with Li Muxian, and he was stunned when he first heard it, he didn't know what medicine was sold in the thief's gourd, maybe it was just a show to motivate the morale.

"If you can't fight tonight, the thief army may know that the Shenji Battalion is coming and dare not approach the city, and we still have tens of thousands of soldiers and horses stationed in Tianjing Lake in the north of the city, he doesn't dare to act rashly, it's just a formality to save face...... Li Muxian said with a sudden frown: "Will the thief army bypass the city and attack the Tianjinghu military camp, but the rookies over there are all rookies that the governor said, if they are attacked by the night, they ...... it"

"No, it won't!" Chang Yu waved his hand: "We know that there are rookies in the Tianjing Lake military camp, but Bai Wang doesn't know, and if he wants to attack the camp, he has to worry about us going out of the city before and after, he definitely doesn't have the guts" Saying that, he got up and waved his hand to Li Muxian: "There is no war tonight, go to bed early and get up early to be in good health, if the Taoist chief can't sleep, push a few hexagrams, see if there is heavy rain in the near future."

"If you look at the heavens, you can know, what is the use of deferring?" Li Muxian muttered and walked into the courtyard and looked up at the sky.

As soon as the sky was bright, Chang Yu got up early in the morning, warmed up after a few boxing trips in the courtyard, and was about to go out of the county government to run, when he happened to meet Wu Sangui coming down from the city and asked him: "There was no movement last night, when did the thieves retreat?" ”

"The thieves haven't retreated" Wu Sangui's words made Chang Yu a little surprised: "Just spend it outside the city all the time?" ”

Wu Sangui nodded: "Always two miles away, from last night to now, do not attack or retreat......" Just as he was speaking, a pro-soldier rushed over: "Report, the thief army has changed the guard......"

Rub, still taking turns off-duty, Chang Yu was curious and hurried to the city to watch, and saw that there were about 3,000 cavalry mixed thieves wandering two miles away in the south of the city, and there were thousands of retreating thieves in the distance.

"The first two times the thief army harassed at night and retreated at dawn, but this time it was strange, there was no movement or even scolding last night, and it hasn't retreated until now, does the Overseer know what kind of trick the thief army is doing like this?" Wu Sangui looked puzzled, last night, the gang who watched the excitement stayed up until late at night and broke up when they saw that there was no play, but they let him stay up all night and think about it all night without coming up with a clue.

Chang Yu shook his head: "Although the governor doesn't know, I expect him to be just pretending to be a ghost, but after dawn, let Ma Ke and Wang Tizhong lead their troops out of the city to defeat them!" ”

After breakfast, when he heard that the thief army still hadn't retreated, and was about to give the order to send troops to expel him, he suddenly saw dark clouds in the sky, Chang Yu was overjoyed and asked Li Muxian if it was going to rain heavily, Li Muxian frowned: "I can't say!" ”

After all, no matter how divine this guy is, he can't tell the weather forecast, Chang Yu rushed to the yard and looked up at the dark clouds, looking at this posture, whether it was big or small, it was inevitable that a rain was coming.

As long as it rains, the thief army will retreat to the camp, and if it rains heavily, it will retreat to Chizhou.

Woohoo, Chang Yu cheered triumphantly in the courtyard: "Let's have a heavy rainstorm" As he spoke, Ma Ke hurried over: "Lord Overseer, the thief has submitted a letter to negotiate peace!" ”

Chang Yu snorted, and then scolded: "Either fight or surrender, where is there any peace to talk about, what peace to talk about, why don't you give him back the river and rule, what qualifications does he have to negotiate peace with Lao Tzu now."

Li Muxian listened to it next to him but couldn't help but say: "The thief army is not afraid when he sees that we are powerless to fight, although there is no peace to discuss, but it is good for adults to go and see what kind of medicine they sell in the gourd, what kind of unexpected gains are there if they can't keep it, if they can surrender you without blood, wouldn't it be more seconds."

Chang Yu rolled his eyes: "Do you really believe that the thief wants to negotiate peace and stop the war, or want to surrender to the governor?" Dream it, I don't know what it's up to, but it's impossible for it to fall, and nine times out of ten it's just trying to stall for time."

"Then why don't you delay him for a few days, let our soldiers recover their strength, if he still has no heart, he will advance the army and defeat him in one fell swoop" Li Muxian said seriously, Chang Yu thought about it and said to Ma Ke: "At this time, the governor has no time and no heart, so General Ma will negotiate with Lu Shangshu to see what tricks he wants to play."

When everyone was present except for Wu Sangui to rest, when they heard about this, Zhao Zhilong and others also wanted to go together, saying that it was a lively look, in fact, they thought Chang Yu understood very well, if they participated in this matter, if Bai Wang really surrendered, they could also persuade them to surrender, so they also responded.

In the middle of the afternoon, the sky became more and more gloomy, and there was a dull sound of thunder rolling, Ma Ke and Wang Tizhong led 3,000 people out of the city from the south gate to confront the thief army, in case Chang Yu ordered the three guards of Dongchang and Wu Sangui's subordinate Shen Jianghu to lead the cavalry to wait for orders at the south gate and the west gate, if there was any change in the thief army outside the city, they would be killed immediately.

Chang Yu was sure that Bai Wang could not surrender, but he didn't know what he was trying to do, although he didn't meet in person, but he saw from a distance that although the two armies were facing each other in the south of the city, the place where they met was in an open place three or four miles southwest of the city, and he saw more than ten horsemen from both sides meeting slowly.

Li Muxian was slightly excited beside Chang Yu: "Lord Overseer, will there really be any surprises, such as Bai Wang's surrender and a big victory without a fight."

Chang Yu pursed his lips and looked up at the sky: "The probability of a heavy rain is greater than what you said" As soon as he finished speaking, there was a loud bang above his head, and the heavy rain poured down, Chang Yu was overjoyed, dancing and laughing in the heavy rain, Li Muxian was dumbfounded, and looked at him for a while.

The sudden rainstorm interrupted the meeting between the two parties, and Ma Ke and the others hurried back and led the army back into the city, while the thief army retreated slowly.

"It's Bai Wang, what did he say?" Chang Yu was drenched in the door of the city, but his face was full of joy, if this heavy rain rained for a day or two, Bai Wang would retreat!

Ma Ke wiped the rain on his face: "It's Bai Wang, he was very angry when he saw that it wasn't the Overseer, and the last general let him have something to say and fart directly, and he was angry and wanted to go away, Lord Lu persuaded him to return before he made a gesture, saying that if he didn't want to lose both, he would sit down and talk about it, but he wanted to talk to the Overseer, and he hadn't just said a few words, and the heavy rain had to go back."

"Still talking about his size, this rain can pour him cold" Chang Yu laughed: "God really helps me!" ”

"This rain is just a double-edged knife, why is the overseer so happy" Lu Daqi sighed: "The thief army is unbearable in the wilderness, although our soldiers are in the city, they are also sleeping on the streets, not to mention that there is also a large army stationed outside the city, this rain will not be drenched less, and the thieves will suffer together."

The corners of Chang Yu's mouth twitched: "It's better to be exposed to wind and rain than to have no eyes!" Lu Daqi, who was choked on a word, had nothing to say, and everyone also nodded yes, if the thieves could be swept away, the officers and soldiers would be willing to be drenched on the streets for three days and three nights.

As Chang Yu expected, Bai Wang's mood was very bad at this time, he already had a very perfect plan, but he was disrupted by this sudden rainstorm, this damn rain would not make him so angry if it came a few days earlier or a few days later, but when he was about to implement the plan, didn't God help the gelding?

The heavy rain is like a note, the rain is rushing down his forehead, Bai Wang can't even open his eyes, this damn rain, if it is a moment and a half, it will be fine, but if the soldiers stay overnight in the wilderness for a day or two, there is nowhere to shelter from the rain, and if they are not drenched, it will be a devastating blow to morale, at that time, the officers and soldiers can make him suffer heavy losses and even annihilate the whole army with a casual charge.

It looks like it's time to get ready for a retreat!

Bai Wang's face was dark, biting his lip, his eyes were full of hatred! Hate the sky and hate Chang Yu!
