Chapter 34: The Prestige of Xiong Zhi

After Chen Shi's entire army had used war meals, they immediately began to consolidate their troops, and set up camps and advanced towards Jijun City. When the scout suddenly found that "the defenders in Jijun City did not have any signs of leaving the city to fight, but were just guarding the city with great vigilance," Xu Shiye and others led the entire army to within five miles of Jijun City and stopped.

It felt that it was not beyond expectations. Ji County was determined to "seize the city and not fight in the field". After Liu Heita organized the entire army to re-camp, Xu Shiye cooperated with Ling Jing to join the army, and sat on the horse with a strong body, which seemed like a giant god, to open the way first, and led a hundred cavalry soldiers to rush to the city of Ji County...

Xu Shiye wanted to check the city and city defense situation with Ling Jing in advance. If possible, Xu Shiye also wanted to have appropriate communication with Jun Fangxing, the prefect of Ji County in the city. In the era of cold weapons, in fact, first being courtesy and then being soldier is a common procedure for the offensive and defensive battle in the city. If you can lobby the defender's defender's weapons with a cleverness, or hit the confidence of the defender's defender, it is also a way for the attacking party to avoid consuming more military power.

Xu Shiye and others galloped on horseback and gradually approached the city of Jijun. They looked at the city wall in a daze with a crowd of figures and a vague commotion. There were vague shouts and shouts. It is conceivable that the nervous guards of Jijun must be preparing to fight the arrival of the siege.

Xu Shiye and others slowed down and galloped, and stopped a hundred steps away from Jijun City to look closely: Jijun City, the city is about three or four meters high, but there is a moat that is not too high outside the city, surrounded by three or four meters wide and deep, with the gates closed and suspension bridges hanging high; the city towers and arrows listed on the walls highlight the dilapidated Jijun City's long-standing disrepair. Jijun City may be because it is close to the north bank of the Yellow River and has sufficient water sources. The one with the greatest defensive value and the most scale is actually the wide and deep moat...

As they drove the horse slowly, they watched the city. Xu Shiye and other hundreds of horsemen sat up and looked up at Jijun City like walking around the city. The defenders on Jijun City were staring at the city like "watching an extremely eye-catching drama that was being staged under the city". When Xu Shiye and others drove the horse slowly there, there would be waves of commotion and uneasiness on the opposite city, and occasionally, like "throwing rewards to the stage", some sparse arrows would float down.

Whether it is to observe the camp or observe the city, one of the most basic rules must be followed: you must be outside the range of the best long-range attack weapon bow and arrow in the era of cold weapons, that is, about a hundred steps away; in order to ensure that you are not injured by the opponent's sneak attack, cold arrow.

Similarly, Xu Shiye, who was the first time to personally arrive at the ancient battle formation, could not figure out exactly how far away from the city wall? But the crowd of followers and the guards were naturally familiar with each other. Therefore, Xu Cong, who was almost unkind, reminded Xu Shiye that Xu Shiye could already estimate the general position where he should stop from the facial expressions of the people around him. Therefore, the occasional arrows falling on the city were actually like supporting Xu Shiye and others in the city, and were useless to hurt Xu Shiye and others.

After a short half circle of the city, the defenders on the city were terrified and cautious in silence. After monitoring them, Xu Shiye waved his hand and gestured for a bit of ostentation. The careless people stopped first, and smiled at Ling Jing beside the horse and said, "Ha, ha! I waited for such a long time to watch as if I were seducing the enemy, but the defenders in the city were alert to not dare to leave the city and try to fight! The opera was really boring without a supporting actor!"

Ling Jing, who had been sitting silently and frowned and looked at the county city seriously, didn't feel a 'puff' laughter: "This is true: true and false. We have no intention of luring the enemy out of the city to fight, but instead made the opponent fully confirm that we were using the trick of luring the enemy and did not dare to step out of the city! If the city really sent a brigade army out of the city without fear to attack us, we would really be very embarrassed to escape quickly! Haha, ha! This is the world, "I am willing to plant flowers but not bloom, but I am unwilling to plant willows and willows to form shades'!"

Also, he didn't expect that when he first arrived at the ancient battle formation, he encountered such a very boring scene. He couldn't help but chuckled with some excitement: "Since the city ignores me, then I must be unsympathetic to them. Haha, haha! How about calling Jun Fangxing and others in the city to the top of the city? Lixian will talk to them?"

As Ling Jing also replied with a smile, "Okay, Ling Jing try", Xu Shiye had turned his head and drove his horse in front of him, with a kind and honest temperament, as if he was using his huge body to block Xiong Kuohai who could hurt him from Jijun City. He raised his voice slightly and said, "Brother Hai! Brother Hai is in a high voice, shouting to the head of the city to go to the city for a while." "Okay!" With Xiong Kuohai's excited voice agreeing, Xiong Kuohai had turned his horse's head a little, and drove the horse to the direction of Jijun City for 20 steps. After thirty steps, it was beyond the city. Everyone outside the city unexpectedly turned over and turned over and "thump", as if his heavy body was shaking the earth and jumped off the war horse...

Xiong Kuohai, who jumped off the war horse, held the heavy one-legged bronze man in one hand and bent down his tall and majestic body. He grabbed a stone of "basketball" from the ground as if nothing had happened (there was no basketball in this era, but this is a bit vivid). With a single arm, he raised his whistle and threw it towards Jijun City, which had at least seventy or eighty steps away.

"Boom", there was a constant sound of "banglala". A battlement on the city wall was destroyed by the powerful force of Xiongkuohai! In an instant, gravel and soil flew everywhere, falling to the base of Jijun's wall, which was nearly three meters high. Dust spread out and enveloped the head of Jijun's city where it was thrown.

"Ha, ha, ha..." As the defenders on the city panic, noisy screams sounded, Xiong Kuohai made a burst of hilarious sounds that echoed Yuntian. With his other arm, he raised the huge one-legged bronze man carrying, pointed at Jijun City and shouted: "Listen to the bastards in the city: My general asked the people in the city to come to the city for a while! Come out soon! Otherwise, I will pick up a big piece of paper and smash your city wall next time!"

"Brother Hai is back soon! Beware of cold arrows!" Xu Shiye, who was in Xiong Kuohai, quickly jumped onto the war horse, and Xiong Kuohai, who drove the horse back, couldn't help but blurt out: "Brother Hai is really a general of tigers and wolves, and has the power of a bear and crane!"

"Hey, hey! Scar, scare these bastards! Avoid these bastards being anxious! Hey, hey...!" Xiong Kuohai, who had driven his horse to Xu Shiye, explained with a smile, "Hey, hey".

At this time, the defenders on the top of Ji County may have not yet woken up from being shocked by the power of Xiong Kuohai's throwing. Therefore, no one had time to attack the extremely arrogant Xiong Kuohai with a cold shot of bows and arrows.
