By the time the King of Chu and the Cheguang warriors arrived, the Moshi had already retreated, but there was still chaos in the Chu camp.

Those Song scholars who rushed into the Chu camp had superb personal means, and the Chu people were chaotic, so they couldn't resist it at all, and the nobles who camped here were captured, without command, and the chaos was incomparable.

Many of them rose up to kill them, and cut off the ears of those who were slain, and prepared to return as a reward.

Or some people think that it is better to string these ears and throw them in front of the inkers when they return, so that they will be ashamed of their lack of courage.

It's just that as soon as the elite of the Chu people arrives, those individuals who are fighting will not be able to stop it, and those dreams will dissipate.

What the king of Chu brought was his close attendant, and he was also the most elite Che Guangzhi, as well as the private armor of the Chu nobles, who were also elite.

Both sides can't fight by chariot, but they are just as proficient in infantry combat, and they are both military nobles, at least they must be able to fight without chariots.

The Chu people were both large in number and organized, and after a short time, those Song people could only flee.

Some were captured, some were shot, and some fled without knowing anything.

The king of Chu personally drew his bow and shot one person, and the attendants around him cheered, and used the method of hunting to surround many people who were still fleeing in the center, only giving the king of Chu a chance.

Hunting is a kind of military activity, and people are not much stronger than wild beasts when they are in a panic.

Most of the Song people who were fighting in twos and threes were surrounded in the center, and the king of Chu personally led people to capture them.

After most of those Song people were captured and a few of them fled to the wilderness, the king of Chu sent people to collect the routed troops and stabilize the army.

Then he ordered all battalions to be on guard at any time, and prepare chariots as soon as dawn in case the Song people made an appointment to fight tomorrow.

Early the next morning, the sky was just dawning, and the Chu people, who had been nervous all night, finally settled down.

In the attack last night, the Chu people did not lose much, there were not many dead, and most of them fled in vain.

It seemed chaotic, but after the barracks were settled in the morning, those people all returned, after all, they still had to eat.

Counting the losses, only the Gong clan Ziyu was captured, and at the same time, Ziyu's Che You and Yushou were captured, and there were more than a dozen soldiers.

The Chu people also captured more than 30 Song people, shot seven or eight people, and many others escaped and are still being searched.

Not in terms of identity, not in vain, the losses of the Chu people are comparable to those of the Song people.

It's just that because the Chu people are the besieging side and the Song people are the defending side, it is still the Chu people who are suitable after all.

Early in the morning, it was rumored that the king of Chu personally shot two people last night, captured one person and so on, and beat the drum to make a strong voice, which immediately added a lot of fame to the king of Chu.

Chu Sima bowed and said: "If it weren't for the king himself to lead Che Guang to counterattack last night, I am afraid that the place where the right-wing Ziyu is located will collapse." Fortunately, the king made a clear decision, otherwise the morale would have plummeted. ”

If the color has been lit today, the battalions have a way to deal with it last night, except for the place where it was attacked by night, there is no loss in the rest of the place, and there is no chaos, plus many Song people have been captured, and the morale has been greatly improved.

In addition, the Song people did not have the intention of going out of the city to fight a decisive battle in the morning, and the nobles of the Chu people all bowed to the judgment of the king of Chu last night and celebrated repeatedly.

The king of Chu was also happy, he judged accurately last night, and captured another person, everyone in the Chu army camp knew about it, and the soldiers worked harder.

He said, "The widow knew last night that the ink man must just want to take advantage of the chaos to attack and disturb. If I hadn't personally led people to fight back last night, then the city would have come again and again, and how could the soldiers sleep peacefully? ”

"Now that I have checked clearly, the people sent last night are all people from Song Gong. Come to think of it, how can an ordinary apprentice do such a thing as a night attack? ”

Those captured soldiers had already reported their names and received due treatment in accordance with the rules of war at this time.

Zuo Yin said: "Now that Ziyu has been captured, it is just right to exchange these captured Song people." ”

The king of Chu said: "This matter is not urgent. Whether it is the Song people or the Mo people, they will not abuse Ziyu. As for these soldiers, they can't be put back, and let's talk about it after the city is broken. ”

"Although the Song people have warriors, there are not many people who can launch night attacks, and yesterday's inquiry shows that these people are considered sergeants in martial arts, and they are not ordinary people. If you put it back, I'm afraid that there will be another attack on the camp. ”

Zhao Zhiai was puzzled: "The ink is guarding the city, why didn't there seem to be any ink in the night attack yesterday?" I heard that Mo Zhai has hundreds of disciples, all of whom are immortal......"

The king of Chu said: "There are many things to defend the city, and you have also heard that there are many rules of the ink man, and the city is unstable, and there are many rules, so you need to use more people to suppress it." I'm afraid that those ink people can't get out, otherwise, if all the three hundred disciples of Mo Zhai go out of the city to attack the battle, once we don't win, we attack the city again, how will Shangqiu defend it? In my opinion, the ink man will not go out of the city. ”

Zhao Zhiai seemed to want to say something, and the king of Chu said: "Don't worry! Last night, the people who went out of the city and attacked at night can drive to attack, and the defenders of the city even sent them to fight, which shows that the ink has given up the field battle, and can only wait for the three Jin to come to help, and see us and the three Jin Dynasty fight, so as to form an alliance with the soldiers. ”

The judgment of the king of Chu is not unreasonable, and the effect of going out of the city to attack the war can only make the Chu people panic and affect the Chu people to cut wheat.

Those captured Song people also said the same, after all, they didn't know the plan of the Mo people, but before they went out of the city to attack them, they told these people that the purpose was to attack the Chu people to cut wheat.

According to the King of Chu, since the Mo people wanted to attack the Chu people and delay the number of Chu people cutting wheat, it was obvious that the Mo people were just preparing to defend to the end.

I can't help but say that this is a good way, but the king of Chu feels that it is a pity that he is broken by his own courage.

He thought, if it wasn't for his accurate judgment last night, I'm afraid that the purpose of the ink master would have really been achieved.

Although this kind of night attack does not kill many people, it can keep the camp on guard at night, and more people must be mobilized to guard it in case such a situation occurs again.

If this happens a few more times, the morale of the army will collapse.

The more he thought about it, the more complacent he became, and he got a lot of news from the mouths of those captured people in the city, and he became more convinced that the Mo Scholar was really preparing to defend Shangqiu.

But he didn't want to not only fail to achieve his goal last night, but also gave him the opportunity to make a name for himself and win the hearts of soldiers, and he was secretly proud in his heart.

Seeing the King of Chu smiling, Chu Sima also said: "It seems that the Mo is only good at defending the city, but not good at field battles, and the results of last night's battle were not great." ”

The King of Chu shook his head and said, "If that's not the case, you didn't listen to those captured people?" The Moshi demanded that they should not rush and kill without permission after leaving the city, and if these people really obeyed the rules, how could they be captured? ”

"Mo Zhai has the talent of a general, but he is useless, what can he do? The hundreds of disciples under him did not dare to move lightly, and once they moved, they were afraid that there would be changes in the city...... If it had been his disciples last night, even if I could have expected it, I am afraid that they would have withdrawn by the time they arrived. ”

The rest of the nobles and close ministers echoed one after another, and the king of Chu said: "In this way, it is just right to make peace with the affairs in the city." ”

"Before the Jin reinforcements arrived, the only thing to worry about was those disciples of Mo Zhai. And it just so happened that Da Yin and others in the city wanted to do something, so they happened to take advantage of last night's work to do a good job. ”

He told him about his plan, and everyone praised it.

Since the only thing to worry about before the arrival of the Jin reinforcements was the hundreds of ink people, then the camp should be made more advanced, and the appearance of being ready to attack the city at any time should not be completely besieged.

As long as this is the case, the ink people at the head of the city will be nervous, and they will not dare to easily assemble out of the city for a night attack, so as not to fail the night attack and the Chu people will attack the city.

Similarly, the Da Yin and others in the city also need the Chu people to make a posture of attacking the city, or launch a real ant-attached siege to the city, so as to have a chance to do the secret business that day, so as to break the city.

Finally, you can bluff and panic the city, but you can quietly send more soldiers to cut the wheat.

In the battle last night, the king of Chu thought that the city must think that he would be on guard, so he withdrew his soldiers to strengthen the garrison, but he wanted to do the opposite.

Make the appearance of attacking the city, so that the ink man is ready to defend at any time, but in fact, he grabs the winter wheat as military rations.

Even if not to prepare to rely solely on siege to force surrender, more food is necessary.

If you want to break the city, you can only wait until Da Yin and others in the city burn the grain and launch a coup d'état, but then the food in the city will not be enough.

If you can prepare enough food, once the city is broken, you can buy the hearts of the Song people, and you can show your benevolence and righteousness, in order to make a good marriage.

Moreover, in the future, whether the soldiers of the Three Jin Dynasty will arrive or the soldiers of the Three Jin Dynasty will not force the Song people to repair Yuguan City, they will need to prepare grain and grass in advance.

Just as the Mo people did not defend Shangqiu to defend Shangqiu, the Chu people did not attack Shangqiu for the purpose of attacking Shangqiu, both sides had their own more far-reaching goals.

The king of Chu knew that if it was imminent, he was afraid that those ink men would shout at the head of the city again.

This shouting made the king of Chu helpless the most, because those ink scholars who shouted did not use Song language at all, nor Yayin, but only used those local dialects that the disciples could understand.

The king of Chu also knew that the nobles in Shangqiu City did not want to listen to the truths of the Mo, but the Moshi did not speak Song or Yayin, and the nobles in the city were afraid that they could pretend not to know.

Some truths are too confusing, and he has to choose some strange methods.

So he gave orders to go down and transport timber from afar, and to make siege equipment.

And he told the battalions to prepare their bows and crossbows, and to move the strongholds forward, and to beat the drums during the day, to cover up the sound of the city.

At the same time, he secretly dispatched soldiers to go to cut wheat, and only let the rest of the people bluff, so that the city thought that it was ready to attack the city.

As soon as the time permits, they will prepare for a siege, and they know that they will not be able to attack it at all, but they can make a real chaos in the city, and only then can they take Shangqiu City as soon as possible.

…………

In the city, as Gong Zaoye said, he led the people of the Xuanyi Department to publicize last night's events, only saying that he had captured the Chu people and used it to turn last night's "defeat" into a "victory" to tell the people in the city.

In order to calm down last night's accident, and to let there be no complaints in the city, and to make those people in the city more obedient to the orders of the Mo people, Mo Zhai also personally met with Song Gong and asked Song Gong to come forward to personally reward those who went out of the city last night to fight.

In addition, Song Gong also came forward to make it clear that those who were trapped in the Chu camp last night really did not obey the order, and those who obeyed the order not only came back alive, but also captured the prisoners and received a reward.

Song Gong was helpless, and he felt a little emotion in his heart, the person who went out of the city to fight at night last night ...... Most of them are their own direct subordinates, and their own power has weakened a little.

Song Gong thought, fortunately, the ink people are still there, and they can always maintain it thoroughly. But he didn't know, but he was afraid that the mind of the ink man might not be so pure......
