There is no need to say much about the tragic battlefield.

The Ling Army's offensive was fierce, and it seemed to be like pulling out Licheng in one go.

This is too different from the Huan Army that the Ghost Army faced before.

In addition to his morale being suppressed, Mess felt a little nervous. After an hour of fierce fighting, he immediately pulled a side general and said loudly: "The Spirit Army's offensive is too fierce. If we continue like this, we will not be able to defend for a few days! Hurry up!

Ask for help from the rear!"

"Yes! Yes!" the side general responded in a hurry.

But at this moment, the sound of gold suddenly sounded from the Lingjun side.

No matter what the reason, when hearing the signal of the commander's withdrawal, the soldiers of the Ling Army did not hesitate for a moment and instantly retreated like a tide.

It can be seen from this that this army is well-trained and has very strict military disciplines.

In just a moment, the plains outside the city returned to peace again, but the rocks and cold weapons under the city were scattered all over the ground, with corpses all over the place, and a tragic look...

Metz was a little stunned. Didn’t the opponent want to launch a desperate attack? Why did he stop?

The side general who was called by him did not dare to set off easily, but stood there and asked tentatively: "General, General, the Spirit Army has retreated, are you still asking for help?"

"This..." Mess came to his senses and thought for a while, "It's better to send a message to the rear, and I don't know what the Lingjun is trying to do."

"Yes!" The general took the order and left.

Seeing the Spirit Army suddenly retreating, the ghost troops who had just defended the city couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

On the other side.

The reason why Huang Zu suddenly withdrew his troops was because the purpose of tentative attack had been achieved. He was an old coach on the battlefield, with rich experience. Sometimes, just one battle could keenly detect the weak points of the enemy's defense.

However, after Ye Gui returned to the formation, he was somewhat dissatisfied: "Ship Huang! Why is the gold ringing? The last general almost attacked the city several times!"

He was covered in armor and covered in blood. Huang Zu looked at him and said with a smile: "For generals, you should lead troops to fight. Do not be anxious. According to the information provided by the Qin army, the Licheng Ghost Army has 30,000 people, let alone the bad ones.

It’s only half a step away, and it’s impossible to break the city in just one battle, because their troops are very sufficient.”

"Then, what else can I do if I don't attack? Could it be that I just watch it!" Ye Gui said.

His personality is obviously the kind of straightforward and impatient type.

Huang Zu said tepidly: "Instead of letting the soldiers fight to the death and suffer major casualties, it is better to find weaknesses and win with one blow."

"Oh? In this way, Huang Shuai already has a way?" Ye Gui was shocked.

Huang Zu said: "I just attacked the city. I carefully observed it and found that although Licheng was tall, it was disrepaired for so long. Look."

As he said that, he also pointed to the city wall in the distance.

Ye Gui followed it and saw that there seemed to be many stone bombs hit there, and there were signs of collapse in the corner of the city wall.

Huang Zu continued: "And there are no large city-defense equipment on the Ghost Army, and there is no way to deal with the stone throwing machine. If we focus on the siege on the stone throwing machine, we might be unexpected.

The effect.”

"What Huang Shuai means... destroying the city defense of Licheng?" Ye Gui asked tentatively.

"Maybe you can try it." Huang Zu said directly.

Ye Gui couldn't help but lit up when he heard this: "This is a good idea. Once a city defense collapses, our infantry can take advantage of this gap and enter the city and engage in a face-to-face hand-to-hand battle with the Ghost Army!"

"Yeah." Huang Zu nodded and immediately said: "You send orders to retreat to the camp, and let the soldiers of the Sixth and Seventh Formation collect stone bombs on the nearby mountains, and the other departments will perform their duties.

, strengthen patrols and secret sentries outside the camp, do not let the ghost army approach and spy on our army's military information. This news must not be disclosed, otherwise, the ghost army may urgently strengthen the city wall when it comes to knowing it."

"No!" Ye Guiyi clasped his fists.

Most of the ancient city construction was for the purpose of defending against war, so it was very strong. Generally speaking, it was impossible to destroy a city with just a stone throwing machine.

But after years of disrepair, it will naturally be different.

When other generals attacked the city, most of them thought about how to attack the city and opened the city gate, but Huang Zu focused on the city wall.

It can be seen that he is not only very good at military strategy, but also has a flexible and changeable military use, and is not that kind of brainless thinking.

Under his order, the Lingjun began to secretly quarry, and there was no movement in the siege for several days.

For a moment, Metz became very puzzled.

On this day, the ghost army and the side generals gathered together.

Metz was located directly above, frowning tightly.

Not only him, but everyone was also confused. A side general said: "General, after the last battle, the combat power of the Ling Army was not weaker than our army, and the strength was even twenty.

If the masses continue to launch strong attacks, to be honest, our army may not be able to defend for a long time when its troops are sharply reduced, but now, why are they not moving?”

What he said was what others thought.

Mess was the same, and couldn't help but frown and pondered: "Well...their Central Plains army is different from us. They like to use military strategy. However, Huang Zu is a man who has been through the battlefield for a long time and is not easy to deal with. He has been doing all these days.

If there is no action, I must be accumulating strength and taking a fatal blow."

"This..." Hearing him say this, the crowd of people couldn't help but look at each other.

Mess continued: "In this way, send more than a dozen elite spies first. If possible, find a way to approach the Lingjun camp and see what they are doing! At the same time, each unit increased its guard at night and beware of the Lingjun night attacks.

.”

"Yes!" All the generals took the order one after another.

Although Mess had doubts, he didn't know what Huang Zu was going to do, and he didn't dare to turn on and face the enemy. He could only send elite troops to find ways to spy on the military information.

But how could Huang Zu let him explore such a secret military activity on the Ling Army? Not only inside and outside the camp, but also with strict defenses, ten miles in a radius, there were countless secret messages.

It can be said that these dozen ghost soldiers had just sneaked out of Licheng and had not yet approached the Lingjun camp, but they had died. None of them were caught and could be returned.

Lingjun camp.

A general came to report: "Ship Huang, the stone bomb has been collected almost all."

"No, this is far from enough." Huang Zu shook his head.

"But this..." the general hesitated for a moment and said, "There are not many stones on the nearby mountains, and they have been collected."

"Then let's go a little further. Wherever there is stone, go and pick it." Huang Zu said directly.

"This is!" The general had no choice but to receive the order.

After he bowed, the general in charge of the secret whistle quickly walked in and said with his fist:
Chapter completed!
