The Summoning World of the Great Qin Empire

Chapter 872
There was silence in the entire big tent. Ji Bu glanced at Ji Xin, who was also covered in black, his eyes swept across the faces of the generals in the army, and he couldn't help but sneered in his heart. When King Xiang decided to go west, the Prime Minister As I said, except for the veterans in Dantu Water City where the battle took place, the rest of Chu State, including the soldiers who stayed behind in the capital Yingdu, were largely vulnerable to a fight.

Because they have not experienced any bloody battles in the warehouse, they followed Xiang Yu from Kuaiji to recover the old land of Chu, and basically did not encounter any bloody battles, so thousands of people died in the attack today. These generals feel sorry for each other. Everyone didn't know what to do, especially when they thought back to Li Yuanba's blow to shake the army, everyone was afraid, how could they raise their hearts to fight again?

Brave men are born with heavy rewards, but sometimes even with heavy rewards, few people really disregard life and death.

"Sima Xiangtao of the other department, you will lead an army of eight thousand immediately and block the outside of Shangyong City. The openings we dug today are all in exchange for the lives of the brothers under your hands. You must not let the Shu army at the entrance of the city lose their lives. Get something to block it."

As soon as Ji Bu's words fell, a strong man came out. This is a family slave of the Xiang family, and he has no name. When Ran Min broke through the Dantu Water Village, this man did not surrender, and his body was [-] wounds. , still holding a knife and jumping forward, unable to catch up with his strength, Xiang Zhuang took a fancy to him and gave him his surname and first name.

Similarly, this man led the army from Dantu Water City, and the soldiers under his command were all the elite of Dantu City. If you want to say the fighting strength of these soldiers under Ji Bu, Sima Xiangtao should be the strongest.

"The garrison department will return to the army, set up soldiers, improve morale, and prepare for the next battle!" Ji Bu said immediately without waiting for these people to think.

Everyone bowed their hands and retreated.

"Brother, can you think of a way to deal with that Li Yuanba?" Ji Xin was lying on the couch, while a military doctor was wiping the wound on his body and cleaning the burned muscle tissue on his body surface.

Ji Xin is also brave, young and weak, with such pain on his body, he didn't change his expression, didn't even hum, and let the military doctor wipe his body and bandage the wound.

"There is a way." Ji Bu put down the book in his hand, turned his head to look at Ji Xin and said, "This is the way I came up with after discussing it with the Prime Minister of the State."

"Really?" Ji Xin sat up excitedly, and asked, "What is the solution? Can you tell me?"

"All the generals in our army avoid the invincible generals of the opponent, and then design traps, using the chief general as bait, to lure the enemy generals to fall into the traps. This is the best way." Ji Bu's face remained unchanged. Said.

After hearing this, Ji Xin smiled wryly and said, "Isn't that the same as nothing?"

"Something is better than nothing!" Ji Bu picked up a bowl of hot water, took a sip, and said, "It is said that the Emperor Qin used this method to deal with Li Yuanba when he helped Su..."

"Isn't this Li Yuanba still alive and well?" Ji Xin was a little annoyed.

"Maybe there is no way." Ji Bu thought about it, and then said: "Of course, I didn't see it on the spot, but according to the rumors, Li Yuanba's mount Wanliyun fell into the fire pit and burned to death at that time." , and Li Yuanba himself jumped out of the pit of fire, and almost beat Ying Fusu to death."

Ji Xin looked at the elder brother with a deep thoughtful face, hesitated for a while, and then said: "Brother, if you want to use such a strategy to deal with Li Yuanba in the future, let me put on your general armor, and I will lure you He, you lay out behind the scenes so that you have a chance of winning."

"Brother, have you forgotten what you did before you joined the army?" Ji Bu suddenly turned to look at his younger brother and smiled.

Ji Xin really lowered her head and thought about it, and then exclaimed: "Brother, what you mean is that you are sure to deal with that Li Yuanba and fight him head-on?"

Before joining the army, Ji Bu was a very well-known ranger in Chu. In those days, such things as walking around the world with a sword were not just talk, but really happened.

"Li Yuanba has a double hammer, and he will die if he hits it. However, he has learned how to lighten his body when he walked the rivers and lakes for his brother. Even if it is not low, it is still difficult for Li Yuanba to kill me."

"That's great!" Ji Xin sat up, not knowing if the action she did had touched her wound, or something else, grinning her teeth in pain.

"General, please see me, Big Mac!" The guard lifted the commander, Cong walked in, and said with cupped hands.

"Bring it in!" Ji Bu waved his hand, sat down on the main seat, and ordered to go on.

When Jumbo came in, he was accompanied by Li Jiancheng.

The reason why the two of them came here was naturally because Li Jiancheng had said to Jumac that after the poisonous snakes were released to kill the generals of the Shu Army who watched over the city gates, the soldiers on their side would go to the city next. I am afraid that in the chaos, those snakes and insects will not obey the command of the giant and will attack their own people, so the soldiers on their side should carry things to repel snakes and insects to prevent accidental injury.

After hearing this, Ju Ba felt that it was very reasonable, so he led Li Jiancheng to ask Ji Bu to see him; he could only do things after getting Ji Bu's nod.

"What's the matter with you?" Ji Bu asked indifferently, not showing the slightest sign of a setback in today's siege.

Of course, aside from other things, on the first day of the siege, they had already reached the top of the city tower, which is considered a good record.

"General..." Jumbo cupped his hands, and copied to Ji Bu what Li Jiancheng had said to him.

Ji Bu nodded and said: "This is a good notice, Bishamon, I will leave this matter to you, but remember one thing, our Great Chu Kingdom is a teacher of benevolence and righteousness, and this place of mediocrity, in the past It is the land of our Chu State, and the people must not be disturbed, remember?"

"The subordinates will keep it in their hearts, and dare not forget it!" Li Jiancheng was overjoyed, and naturally he bowed his hands happily.

Ji Bu nodded, and then said: "Our army has already attacked the tower today, but I never expected to see Li Yuanba beheading thousands of our troops on the tower with two golden hammers in his hands, forcing the general to retreat. Bishamon, what can you do to deal with this Li Yuanba?"

It was precisely because Li Jiancheng thought of a way to prevent accidental injury to his own soldiers that Ji Bu asked this question.

Li Jiancheng smiled wryly and said, "This subordinate is just a little clever. I don't know how to answer such a question."

Ji Bu was just asking casually, how could he think of so many questions, so he just nodded and said, "It's okay to step down."

"Here!"

Jumbo and Li Jiancheng left the army camp, Li Jiancheng himself left Jumbo, took the military order from Ji Bu, went to the army chief book to mobilize manpower, and went to the nearby village head town to collect realgar and other snake repellents. thing.

Let's say that when Li Jiancheng left the barracks, the thousands of people around him divided into small teams and dispersed, while Li Jiancheng himself led two hundred riders to the gate of Shangyong City.

The soldiers in the army stationed here saw that the person who came was a general from their side, so no one went up to ask questions. After all, everyone was thinking of a way to break the city. , is also within reason.

Although the two hundred cavalrymen under Li Jiancheng were puzzled, after all, the people on his side were not used to attack the city, so what is this general looking for here?
Several veterans only thought that this young general should be eager to do meritorious service, so they had no other ideas and followed Li Jiancheng.

The people on Chu Jun's side were flying white flags, and went to the bottom of the tower to bring back the bodies of soldiers who died in battle on their side. It was thrown from the tower.

If it is true in the Spring and Autumn and Warring States period, when the two countries were fighting for supremacy, they would respect each other's soldiers who died in battle, even if they did not return the other's body, they would bury the good ones.

This is to show that he is a teacher of benevolence and righteousness, and the second is to prevent the plague from happening.

Li Jiancheng looked up the tower, searching hard, trying to find Li Shimin, king of Shu, but everything was in vain, he couldn't see Li Shimin's shadow at all, he could only see walking around on the tower, carrying various guards Supplies for soldiers.

"Our army suffered heavy losses in the siege battle today!" Li Jiancheng said casually, and led the cavalry away, so he found a reason to send the two hundred cavalry away. Li Yuan and Li Yuanji were both waiting in the military tent.

"I've gone to see it. Shangyong City is very tall, and there is a slope outside. If you want to stand outside and shoot arrows to the tower, you may need to use a heavy crossbow, or even two stone bows." Li Jiancheng said.

Li Yuan and Li Yuanji frowned upon hearing this, which is not something ordinary people can do.

"Leave this matter aside for the time being. How did you go to collect realgar today?" Li Yuan asked, since he couldn't get in touch with Li Shimin in the city, then ignore it for now. The scariest thing is that once it is released and climbed to the top of the city tower, it will really kill people.

"Don't worry, the collection has already started." Li Jiancheng said: "When the city was attacked today, the Chu army has suffered a big loss, and they may not attack the city again tomorrow."

"Yuanba's bravery can be said to be invincible in the world." Li Jiancheng, who was waiting for Li Yuan, recounted the battle process he had heard, and said in surprise.

"Father, according to me, we are going directly to the city gate now, and staying here now is not because we are uncomfortable." Li Yuanji continued.

Li Jiancheng glanced at Li Yuanji strangely, and couldn't help but think in his heart: They are all brothers of the same mother, how can there be such a big difference? "
