So after Li Yi's words fell, Lincoln and the others were ready to escape. A few of them really didn't expect that Li Yi, who had always been steady, would do such a ridiculous thing on the battlefield.
And the officers and soldiers defending the city also burst into laughter after hearing Li Yi's shouting. As people who have been fighting in Jingchuan Province all year round, these soldiers can no longer understand the situation of the entire Jingchuan Province. Even if the entire Jingchuan Province is gathered, it will definitely not reach the point of one million. But now this guy with a long sword in the city dares to say millions of words without shame.
Ignoring Li Yi's rumors, the city defenders didn't even reply to Li Yi after laughing, they raised their right hands, and saw that they were ready to order the archers to release their arrows.
When they saw the officer defending the city raise his right hand, Yadi and the others knew that things were not good, and Yadi immediately jumped on his horse's head and prepared to escape. When he saw Li Yi still pretending to be holding the holy sword Roland and posing under the city gate, Yadi snatched Li Yi's horse reins into his hands with hatred, and then led Li Yi's war horse and ran towards his camp.
Just as a few people were just beginning to flee, the right hand of the officer guarding the city wall finally waved down. At the same time, an order was given from the officer's mouth to release the arrow.
Immediately, the bows and arrows flying out of the city wall formed a rain of arrows, which shot mercilessly at Li Yi and a few people.
"." As he fled, Yadi glanced back at what was happening behind him. But when he saw the arrow feathers in the sky behind him, Yadi couldn't help but curse in a low voice. Then he rolled over and dismounted, and began to flee forward on two legs. After all, with Yadi's current strength, the speed is comparable to that of horses with foot strength alone. And walking on his legs, his flexibility is much higher than running on a war horse.
Seeing Yadi doing this, Lincoln and the others immediately turned over and dismounted, and in an instant, several figures turned into several streamers, shuttling between the rain of arrows. In three breaths, Li Yi and the others escaped from the rain of arrows without danger. Panting and looking back at the laughing soldiers of the Rhone Legion on the city wall, Yadi said to Li Yi angrily: "Damn, Li Yi, do you want to kill a few of us, I knew you were going to be so crazy, I said that I wouldn't accompany you here." ”
Looking at Yadi's resentful expression, Li Yi only smiled slightly. Then, as if nothing had happened, he said lightly to Yadi: "Don't you think this is very interesting, with the strength of you and me, it is not enough for them to use this level of attack to bury us here." I just want to take you to experience the feeling of a heartbeat, after all, these days are too peaceful, and it's time for us to change our mood. ”
Listening to Li Yi's "crazy words", Yadi just wanted to continue to scold Li Yi for a few words. But knowing that no matter what he said, Li Yi would definitely not take it to heart. So in order not to waste his saliva, Yadi just waved his fist angrily, and then didn't say anything more.
But Lincoln, who has never liked to talk much, said at this time: "Li Yi, I don't think you will be such a crazy person. Although I haven't been in contact with you for a long time, I feel that everything you do will have its own purpose. If you really want to experience the feeling of a heartbeat, you probably won't be taking a few of us on an adventure. ”
Hearing Lincoln speak, Li Yi, who was still smiling faintly just now, was a little surprised. Touching his nose, Li Yi turned his head to look at Lincoln and said, "Hehe, it's really not easy for you to speak once." But there's nothing wrong with what you're saying, and I do this with a little bit of my own thoughts. It's been a long time since I've led a soldier, but I still remember something from the past. When I first saw the city, I suddenly thought of a battle at the beginning. It was the first time I had led an army to attack a city, and the scale of that city was no different from the current Rhône City. ”
"Well, tell me what you thought when you saw Rhône. Could it be that you have suddenly thought of a plan that will make it easy for us to storm the city? Hearing Li Yi say this, he lowered his mouth and suddenly asked curiously.
"Hehe, it's not a good strategy, and although this method can reduce our losses, it also requires too much luck. If the other side has already taken precautions, it is very difficult for us to realize this plan. Turning his gaze to Yadi again, Li Yi said with a smile.
"What kind of strategy, you talk about it first, let's all listen to it, if we all think this plan is feasible, then let's try it somewhat, and we won't get pregnant if we try." Yadi had forgotten the mess just now at this time, and waited eagerly for Li Yi to say what he thought.
Seeing Yadi's eagerness, Li Yi didn't sell it anymore. Looking at the defending soldiers of the Rhone Legion who were still laughing in the distance, Li Yi said lightly: "When we put down the Vanessa rebellion, the first battle was to attack Poyang City. And in the battle of Poyang City, our Central Army only paid a small price. The reason is very simple, that is, on the night when the army had just marched to Poyang City, Lieutenant General Luo Ning sent a force to attack Poyang City at night. At that time, the person who led the team was me, and I led people to secretly open the gate of Poyang City, and then the large army of the Central Army entered Poyang City without hindrance. When the gates opened, the defenders were naturally shaken, and the ensuing battle turned into a one-sided massacre. ”
Listening to Li Yi's flat tone about a battle that year, Yadi and the others listened with relish.
"Hehe, this method seems to be really feasible. With the strength of you and me, although we can't really fight against tens of thousands of troops, if you just take advantage of the night to secretly capture a city gate, it doesn't seem to be difficult. Oh, it turns out that the war is nothing more than this, when you were the first to attack the Seine King City, did you also use this method? Hearing Li Yi talk about the night attack on the city gate, Yadi suddenly said to Li Yi happily.
"Fool, is it so easy for you to attack the city gate that night? We can think of such a simple method, and so can the people who defend the city. Night raids are simple to implement, and effective if successful. But for this strategy to succeed, it must be based on the fact that the other side has no knowledge, or at least a lax defense. If you can use a night attack every time you attack a city, then what are you going to do defending the city, and when you see someone attacking, it is better to directly drive the army to the open ground and confront people head-on. Seeing Yadi's idiot look, Li Yi hit mercilessly.
Hearing Li Yi's reprimand, Yadi was a hundred unwilling in his heart. But when I think about Li Yi's words, it makes sense. Immediately, Yadi also closed his mouth helplessly and didn't say a word.
And after listening to Li Yi's story, Lincoln thought carefully for a while, and said to Li Yi with a smile: "Hehe, then just now you took a few of us to the city to pretend to be idiots, is it just to make the other party feel contemptible." In this way, the other side will not pay much attention to our attack. At least, they won't think you're the kind of general with brains, I'm right. ”
Looking at Lincoln with a smile, Li Yi nodded and said, "Well, that's it." Although the night attack is simple and effective, it must at least be established when the other party is lax. We just went crazy and made such a fuss, maybe we can really lower their vigilance. I hope I can paralyze them, I really don't like to storm a city head-on. In this case, even if it is a victory, it must be a miserable victory. ”
Hearing Li Yi's emotion, everyone nodded in agreement. Especially the officers of the Wu'an Legion behind Li Yi, after hearing Li Yi's words, they all glanced at Li Yi gratefully. After all, over the years, they have become accustomed to letting their men charge at each other's walls without their lives when attacking a city. Because if you want to capture a city, you need to rely on corpses to pile up. Now when they meet such a commander who can cherish the lives of his subordinates, how can several officers not be grateful.
However, Li Yi didn't know what the few subordinates behind him were thinking at this time, and all he was thinking about now was deciding whether to carry out a night attack at night. If not, then it is now time to start arranging the siege. After all, a big war is imminent, and war is all about making a move. Now that he has just arrived here, the morale of the army is at a high time. If you take advantage of this momentum to attack the city, you will also gain a lot.
With a frowning brow, Li Yi began to make a difficult choice. After being silent for a long time, Li Yi raised his head and slowly said to an officer behind him: "Qi Ke, right, you are one of the commanders of the Wu'an Legion who pretended to be bribed by Lige before." ”
Hearing his commander's question, the officer named Zike immediately said respectfully: "Report to Lord Li, yes, the lower officer pretended to agree to the bribery of the Rhône Legion at the behest of Madame Lohr. Before leaving, Mrs. Lohr had already explained to these people, so now that Li Yi asked, this officer did not hide it in the slightest.
"Well, then when Rig bought you, did he explain to you the contact information with the Rhône Legion, and how can you gain the trust of the Rhône Legion." Looking straight at Zike, Li Yi asked seriously.
"At the beginning, that guy in Rig gave each of us officers a short knife, saying that when the time is right, let us go back to the Rhône Army with the short knife." As he spoke, Zike took out a short knife from his waist.
After taking the short knife and looking at it for a while, Li Yi returned the short knife to Zike, and then said, "Well, yes, I didn't expect Mrs. Lore to have such foresight. Now it's time for you to behave, so take your dagger with you tonight and go to the city of Rhône to 'report' to them. ”
Listening to Li Yi's arrangement, Qi Ke first gave a respectful military salute, and then asked in a low voice: "Then sir, what do you say after I enter the city, you can't let me really take refuge in them." Besides, I'm alone, and I can't make them believe it. ”
Looking at Qi Ke's embarrassment, Li Yi said with a smile: "Don't worry, how can I really let you go to the past." When you have gained their trust in the city, tell them that you will have your men fight in the barracks tonight, and then tell them that if there is a fire in our barracks, it will be a signal for you to raise troops. ”
After hearing Li Yi's arrangement, Qi Ke opened his mouth and continued: "Then, they will definitely not let go of such a good opportunity, and they will definitely send troops to harvest the lives of our soldiers." That's when we can catch them off guard, right? ”
"Well, there is indeed such a plan. But that's not all I'm thinking, it's best to trick them out of town, but after all, at times like these, it's hard for them to believe what you say with a short knife. So, our ultimate goal is not to get them out of the city to attack us, but to divert their attention. Looking at Rhône City in the distance, Li Yi said lightly.
"Divert your gaze?" Looking at Li Yi, Zike asked curiously.
"The purpose of our trip is to take the city of Rhône, and it is not enough to simply deceive them out of the city. After all, even if they wanted to take advantage of our disruption to clean us up, they would definitely not send all their men. What we have to do is to get them to focus on our civil strife, and then at this time, we can actually attack their gates at night when they are distracted. Li Yi finally said his ultimate goal.
Hearing Li Yi's strategy, Yadi on the side couldn't help but say: "Okay, you Li Yi, you really have two hits." In this way, there is really hope for our night attack. ”
Smiling modestly, Li Yi ignored Yadi, but looked at Zike seriously, and asked, "How is it, do you have the confidence to complete this task." ”
Looking directly at Li Yi, Qi Ke replied solemnly: "Lord Li, rest assured, the lower officials will definitely live up to the trust of the adults." ”
"yes, okay." Satisfied Zike nodded, Li Yi turned his head and said to Yadi and the others: "After waiting for a while, when the sky turns dark, you will take the people back to the other gate of Rhone City." When the fire is on our side in the evening, you will first take the men and steal the gates, and then take the opportunity to storm the city. ”
"Master Li, don't worry, the lower officials will definitely not complete the task." Following Zike's example, Yadi said funny.
"Li Yi, then don't you follow us to sneak attack, after all, you have done this before, and you have experience." Seeing that Li Yi had no task after arranging everything, Pat couldn't help but ask.
Hearing Pat's question, Li Yi hesitated for a while, then said lightly: "I'll stay and wait for the people from Rhone City to come out, after all, if there is a fight tonight, this place will definitely be the most dangerous." I bring this out and can't put them in danger here. ”
Although Li Yi's tone was very light, after hearing it, the people present all admired Li Yi. But as the person who is most familiar with Li Yi, Yadi knows that Li Yi did this because he was abandoned by the Tianlan Empire at the beginning, so he can deeply experience this feeling.
After the sky finally got dark, Li Yi sent Yadi and a few people to sneak out from the back of the barracks.
Looking at Rhône City, whose outline was already a little blurred in the distance, Li Yi said lightly: "It's finally about to start." ”
When Li Yi took more than 10,000 soldiers to fortify outside Rhône City with a vigilant face, in Rhône City at this time, Zike, who was burdened with heavy responsibilities, was frightened and felt the short knife on his waist and waited under the gate of Rhône City.
Because of the secret signal that Rig told him, Zike was not shot into a hedgehog by the archers in the city at this moment. It's just that after all, it is very dangerous to do this kind of thing, as an ordinary legion in the Wu'an Legion, it is really difficult for Zike to be calm at this time.
