Jimei Lu of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 403

Xi Zhicai's strategy is not too fancy, but it seems a bit old-fashioned in detail.

But the chief designer once said that it doesn't matter whether a cat is black or white, as long as it can catch mice, it is a good cat.

So it doesn't matter whether the strategy is old-fashioned, the key is whether it works or not.

Lin Feng frowned and sucked his teeth and asked, "Zhicai, are you sure that this plan is feasible? Why do I think it's a bit unreliable?"

Xi Zhicai lifted Erlang's legs easily, sipped hot tea and said, "My lord, don't worry, Feng Xiao must have marched into Yanmen according to the agreement. It is inferred in sequence that this strategy of taking advantage of the situation and exerting strength is determined."

"Okay, then tomorrow I will act according to the plan of wisdom and talent. My brain has never been as clever as those of you who play tricks."

Lin Feng's self-deprecating answer made Xi Zhicai laugh heartily.

Only after staying by Lin Feng's side for a long time, will you realize that there is an indistinct affinity in him, which is not like those unrivaled heroes or peerless heroes in the historical classics who are so deep in the city, and their emotions and anger are invisible Performance.

Ordinarily, people like Lin Feng, whose emotions are all shown on the bright side, act almost as if they are transparent, will give their subordinates a sense of insecurity of being unsteady and unreliable.

But all those who follow Lin Feng will gradually discover that they will be influenced by Lin Feng unknowingly. Today's Pingyuan Group is more like a harmonious big family, and everyone voluntarily contributes to the strengthening of this group. .

Xi Zhicai discussed this strange phenomenon with Xun Yu and Guo Jia countless times in private, but they still couldn't understand why it developed like this. Even they themselves were assimilated by Lin Feng silently, becoming more and more alienated Stay away from Lin Feng's side.

Or maybe this is the inherent charisma of some great beings.

In the end, the few of them could only choose this kind of idealistic answer.

Among the three cities of Qixian, Jingling, and Zhongdu, with Jingling City as the head, the lord of the city, Wang Siji, was also a Yellow Turban thief. However, he was not a general in the Baibo Army sequence, but a member of the Yellow Turbans in Jizhou.

In the battle with the official army, Wang Siji's team was broken up, and he led hundreds of brothers to flee in a hurry, and fled into the territory of Bingzhou in one breath.

I hid near Zhaoyuze for a while. Later, seeing the continuous defeat of the government and the army, and the great increase in the power of the Yellow Turban Army, Wang Siji was eager to move again. The refugees broke through Jingling City and used it as a stronghold, and were named the commander of Huangjinqu.

It's a pity that Wang Siji didn't get proud for long, and was surrounded by Ding Yuan's general Zhang Yang and his army to surround Jingling City.

In the end, as a last resort, Wang Siji surrendered in Kaicheng and joined the ranks of Bingzhou officials and troops.

Fortunately, because Lin Feng took advantage of the power of Emperor Ling of Han,

Ding Yuan had to expand his army after he was transferred from Lieutenant General Lu Bu's troops in the Bingzhou Army.

Wang Siji took the opportunity to recruit a large number of refugees again, and thus sat on the seat of Jingling City Guard.

Ever since he learned that Yang Feng returned to Lin Feng to sacrifice to Shangdang County, Wang Siji knew that the flames of war would soon reach the capital of Jingling.

In order to keep his current wealth and fame, Wang Siji gambled everything.

It's not that he didn't want to learn from Yang Feng, and led his soldiers and horses to surrender Lin Feng as a whole.

But there are several difficulties that cannot be solved.

First of all, he is different from Yang Feng. Yang Feng is the prefect of Shangdang, and Yang Feng alone has the final say in Hejun.What kind of thing is he, Wang Siji, he can have the final say in Jingling City, but he really can't command the other two cities.

Secondly, Wang Siji has already changed his master several times. If Lin Feng is demoted again, based on only one erratic evaluation, he may not end well in the future.

The third and most important point is that in order to prevent Taiyuan County from repeating the same mistakes as Shangdang County, Ding Yuan ordered all the city guards and governors in Taiyuan County to send their wives, children, children, and children to the police station in the name of solving the worries of the generals in the past two or three days. He was sent to Jinyang City quickly, under the name of protection, but actually a hostage.

Wang Siji is cruel and ruthless. When his parents passed away, he never shed a single tear. However, such an uncooked and not soft thing is so caring for his own children. If he fell, he would put it on his head for fear of flying, and hold it in his mouth for fear of melting. There are four sons and two daughters in the family, all of them are his treasures, including the eldest son who is married.

What if he surrendered Lin Feng before the battle and sent his wife and children to Jinyang?

It doesn't matter if the wife dies, there are many beautiful women in the world, as long as they are powerful and powerful, they can remarry later, but Wang Siji can't bear the pain of a few children who are as good-hearted as they are. How could it be possible to give Ding Jianyang an excuse to kill them openly?

Therefore, in order to defend Jingling City, Wang Siji gambled everything he had.

The money and food in the house are generally spilled out, not only double the salary of the soldiers under his command, but even the ordinary people in Jingling City, Wang Siji will not be stingy at all, as long as he is willing to help him defend the city and sweat hard to defend the city, The payment must be paid in full and on time, and never in arrears.

It is precisely because of Wang Siji's spare no expense that the city of Jingling is in full swing. Even three or four-year-old children with big noses know that the villain is coming. meal.

The atmosphere of defending the city in Jingling City unknowingly infected the two cities of Qi County and Zhongdu. In these two counties, there was also a big wave of defending the city and protecting the family. Not only the morale of the Bingzhou Army in the city was soaring, but also the people in the city. With the same enemy, we swear to live and die together with the outside world.

It was under such circumstances that Lin Feng led his army around Yangtou Mountain and arrived ten miles away from the Sanlian City, and ordered the three armies to set foot on the ground.

camped out.

At the same time, Wen Chou and Gao Lan also led the Baishuiying across the border between Taiyuan and Shangdang counties, marched out of Zhan County, and marched under the city of Yangyi, preparing to attack the city.

When he received the battle report from Baishuiying, Lin Feng had just led his army to Sanlian City, and his tent had not yet been set up.

Leaning on Hu Leibao, Lin Feng unfolded the letter paper and read through Wen Chou's letter, then raised his hand and waved the letter paper to Xi Zhicai who was still warming in the carriage.

"Zhicai, Uncle Wen is leading the Baishui Battalion to reach the city of Yangyi, and the marching speed is about the same as our army."

Xi Zhicai in the carriage raised the curtains to reveal his face, and said to Lin Feng with a smile: "General Wen Chou has always been as famous as General Yan Liang, but in the two battles between Jizhou and Youzhou, General Wen Chou was unable to participate in the battle because he wanted to guard Yecheng. I can only watch Yan Liang's attacking the city and pulling out the stronghold, making repeated military exploits, and my heart has long been suffocated. Now that there is finally a battle to fight, he will definitely use all his skills. I am afraid that the defenders of Yangyi City will suffer a catastrophe. "

Lin Feng and Xi Zhicai smiled at each other, the generals under his command were happy when they heard about the battle, they must be the first to fight, this is a sign of great prosperity in the world, how can the two not be happy from the bottom of their hearts?

Commanding the main army to set up camp according to the most conducive to attacking the two dragons out of the water formation, the three armies completed their respective plans, and began to bury their pots and cook their meals.

Not far from the Sanlian City, there was smoke and noise, obviously, Lin Jun didn't pay attention to the Bingzhou Army in the Sanlian City.

Wang Siji stood on the top of the city gate, set up a pergola with his hands on tiptoes, and tried his best to look out of the city.

Lin Feng's army had at least [-] soldiers and horses, and most of them were cavalry. Only at the end of the camp could he vaguely observe groups of infantry. However, these infantry had ragged uniforms and low morale. The original Shangdang army that Yang Feng surrendered was not Lin Feng's direct lineage.

Seeing this, Wang Jiji's thoughts suddenly moved.

Lin Feng's command is dominated by cavalry, which is not conducive to the next siege battle. Presumably, at the beginning of Lin's army, he will inevitably send or drive away the former Shangdang soldiers as the pioneers of the siege. Can you make a fuss about this point? Woolen cloth?

Thinking of this, Wang Siji quietly called two of his confidantes, whispered this in their ears, and then waved his hands and ordered them to act according to the plan.

Although Lin Feng is known as the undefeated God of War of the great man, Wang Siji does not think that he has no chance of winning this battle.

First of all, the defenders of the city already had the advantage of a favorable location, people and harmony. No matter how brave Lin Feng was, he couldn't lead a group of iron cavalry to attack the city wall, right?

Secondly, since ancient times, arrogant soldiers are bound to be defeated. Since Lin Feng was born, he has won many battles and victories, which will inevitably breed arrogance and arrogance. However, the Sanlian City has always been a place that is easy to defend but difficult to attack.

If God deserves Wang Siji to become famous in the first battle, then there is a real possibility that Lin Feng will be defeated here for the first time in his life, thus breaking the so-called undefeated myth.

Chapter 404 Eight Generations of Poor Peasants

On the city wall of the Beijing Mausoleum, where all four gates were completely blocked, at an inconspicuous crenel on the north city wall that Lin Feng's army could not see, three huge cross-baskets were shaken down one after another.

Three or four Bingzhou soldiers wearing tattered livery and covered in soot and mud splattered their faces every time they straddled the basket. These people knew at a glance that they must be escaped soldiers who were afraid of losing their lives in the battlefield.

It's just that these fugitives on the surface are all fat and strong, and their palms are covered with thick calluses left by drills. No matter how you look at them, they look like elite soldiers in the army.

These ten soldiers from Bingzhou were exactly the confidantes Wang Jiji secretly sent out to prepare for the secret plan.
