Chapter 368: Self-directed and self-acting in a play
Zhao Hui did not let Wang Heng go.
After discussing with Guo Jia and Xu Shu, he did not plan to attack Changshan.
Just after reading Wang Xin's letter, Zhao Hui was really moved.
After all, Changshan can be defeated immediately, and Yuan Shao may even be captured.
But as Guo Jia said, this war with Yuan Shao, Zhao Hui only needs to be stable.
If the Wang family surrendered by fraud, Zhao Hui would be in danger.
Zhao Hui didn't need such a risky action.
During the day, Zhao Yun went to the city to fight normally.
Yuan Shao still did not come forward.
The Yuan army on the city wall, although they were ashamed and angry, they did not dare to fight.
Han Meng died in front of them, not to mention that these ordinary soldiers didn't have that ability.
Even if you look at these generals, you have to think twice and don't dare to be impulsive.
No one can beat Zhao Yundianwei.
Unless it's a rush to the top, but even so, their odds are low.
Now the morale of Yuan Jun is getting lower and lower.
The commander of his own family was so scolded that he didn't even dare to come to the city, so he could only cower in the city.
There are not many people who know the plan.
Yuan Shao and Fu Zhu and others, the Wang family is only known to Wang Xin and his sons.
Finally, when Zhao Yun retreated, Wang Xin in the city had already begun to take action and gather people.
As the first family of Changshan County, Wang Xin was able to gather three or five thousand to guard the house slaves.
Wang Heng has no news back, and he still doesn't know if Zhao Hui believes it or not.
Just have everything ready.
After dark, Zhao Hui took Zhao Yun and led a group of men and horses to quietly come outside the city.
When it was time to arrive, a soldier, with a torch, spun three times in the air, and then immediately extinguished the torch.
This is the agreement that Wang Xin said in his letter.
If Zhao Hui agrees, when he is in the hour, he will signal with a torch, and he will lead his men and horses, open the city gate, and welcome Zhao Hui into the city.
Zhao Hui didn't plan to enter the city, but he still came to the city and lit a torch.
Wang Xin stood at the head of the city, watching the torches lit under the city, and then extinguished.
He began to have people open the city gates and set fire to the city walls, creating the scene of him fighting Yuan's army.
Outside the city, Zhao Hui saw the fire and heard the shouts of killing.
But he didn't move.
Zhao Hui was watching from outside the city.
Perhaps his inaction will cause a huge loss to the Wang family.
Zhao Hui will not let himself take risks.
In the end, whether the Wang family is sincere or false, Zhao Hui, who is standing outside the city, will soon get the answer.
If the Wang family is sincere, Zhao Hui missed a very good opportunity.
But Zhao Hui will not regret it.
The shouts of killing on the city wall became more and more tragic.
It's just that Wang Xin's heart is getting heavier and heavier.
Beside him, a group of Wang family guards and Yuan Jun were slashing, but no one was injured.
It's just that the weapons are constantly colliding, making the sound of gold and iron, and at the same time, all kinds of roars or screams are coming out of their mouths.
And Wang Xin, standing at the head of the city, looked out of the city, but what he saw in his eyes was only pitch black.
A mile away, there seemed to be a group of dark shadows, like a group of centaurs, but like just a forest, nothing.
A quarter of an hour passed, and the city gate was already open, and a group of people fought at the city gate, but outside the city, there was still no movement, and no one rushed in.
Wang Xin's heart is getting colder and colder.
Outside the city, Zhao Hui, Zhao Yun, and Guo Jia just looked at the flames on the city.
Although there is still the sound of fighting, Zhao Hui Guo Jia already knows the answer.
For a quarter of an hour, the fire on the city walls did not change at all.
It didn't get bigger, it didn't get smaller.
The sound of the fight did not change.
The battle at the city gate was also unchanged.
With the strength of the Wang family, even if it was a prepared raid, it was impossible for Yuan Shao to react until now.
In the city, Yuan Shao had nearly 100,000 soldiers in his hands.
And the Wang family, in Zhao Hui Guo Jia's estimates, can only gather a maximum of 5,000 people.
If the Wang family only made up their minds yesterday, they could only prepare a maximum of 3,000 people in one day.
And if you want not to alarm Yuan Shao, it is almost impossible to gather so many people in the city.
If you want not to be discovered by Yuan Shao, you can only participate in a maximum of five hundred people.
Five hundred people, even if they set fire to the city gates, it is absolutely impossible to hold out for a quarter of an hour.
But now, a quarter of an hour has passed, and the sound of the battle has not changed at all, and whoever listens to the sound of the fight will think that the battle is very fierce.
Zhao Hui and Zhao Yun, who have experienced a hundred battles, even if they can't see it, can analyze that with the current strength of the two sides, the time required for the battle, and the fierceness of the battle.
Although he already knew the answer in his heart, Zhao Hui didn't leave immediately, he wanted to see how long Wang Xin could act.
In the city, Yuan Shao also came to the city wall and stood beside Wang Xin.
"Why didn't Zhao Hui enter the city?"
Wang Xin couldn't answer, he just asked his second son Wang Heng to send a secret letter, and then agreed with Zhao Hui to use the torch as the letter.
He saw the torches lit outside the city, and then the performance began.
And now, he didn't know if there was anyone outside the city.
Wang Xin could only reply: "Torches were indeed lit outside the city just now. I don't know why he didn't come in. ”
Wang Xin thought about it carefully in his mind, and he didn't feel that there was anything wrong with him.
The person he sent was his second son, which was enough to gain Zhao Hui's trust.
When he saw the torches lit up outside the city, Wang Xin also thought that he had succeeded.
Yuan Shao said: "Stop and put out the fire." ”
Then he said: "Gao Lan, you and the head of the Wang family will go outside the city to have a look." ”
The city gate was not closed, and Gao Ran and Wang Xin ran out with a group of men and horses. Wang Xin pointed to the place where the torch had been lit before and said, "It's right in front." ”
"Lord, someone is coming."
"Let's go."
The fighting in the city has stopped, and the fire on the city walls has been extinguished.
Zhao Hui didn't care who the people who went out of the city were. took Zhao Yun and Guo Jia and returned directly to his camp.
The movement of thousands of people is still relatively large.
They were only a mile away from the city gates.
Gao Ran and Wang Xin, who were out of the city, had already heard the movement, but by the time they chased after them, Zhao Hui had already left.
Gao Ran did not continue the pursuit.
The moon, which is not there tonight, is blocked by clouds, and it is impossible to see anything two feet away.
Knowing the enemy's situation, Gao Ran didn't dare to pursue at will, so he had to return to the city with his men and horses and report to Yuan Shao.
"My lord, when I was waiting to leave the city, the people outside the city just left. Not sure if it's Zhao Hui. ”
Feng Ji stood beside Yuan Shao, and after Gao Ran finished speaking, he immediately said: "Lord, it's definitely Zhao Hui, you must catch up with them." ”
For his plan this time, Feng Ji was full of confidence and thought that he would be able to succeed, and he didn't even object to the frustration of Xin Ping.
Feng Ji was very unwilling.
Very unwilling.
He wanted Yuan Shao to send someone to pursue Zhao Hui immediately, and he must get rid of Zhao Hui tonight.
