"That's because they used the wrong cow, they used a mad cow." Ying Ziyi smiled without explaining, and continued, "Five days later, the seven men left the city by night, defected to the Xiongnu, and tried to underestimate the enemy. Come out together, when the Hu Hu is broken, the seven gentlemen can get away in the chaos."

"As ordered!" The seven clasped their fists and leaned over.

"So, that's very good. After this is done, I will become the King of Qin and restore your glory to the Li family."

Hearing this, the big man leaned back slightly and took two steps back.It was not surprising to Ying Ziyi to know that they were the personal guards of Li Mu of the Zhao Kingdom.But Ying Ziyi knew that his surname was Li, which made him tremble.You must know that after Zhao State was destroyed, his identity has become a top secret.Except for a few brothers around him, no one knows his identity.

In the eyes of the big man, Ying Ziyi, who was laughing as usual, instantly became unfathomable, and even made him feel a little scared.

"Master, are they trustworthy?" Li Ergou asked worriedly after the seven people left.

"Don't use people without suspicion, don't use people with suspicion." Ying Ziyi shamelessly plagiarized a famous saying.Hearing this, his image in Li Ergou's eyes instantly increased many times.

Ying Ziyi said that as a big villain, a copycat or something is the best.

Chapter 41 演技

After several days of preparation, Touman launched the first tentative attack on Wuchecheng two days ago, but it ended in failure.The [-] crossbow troops in Wuche City, and the ballistas that looked chilling, formed a dense firepower network at a distance of [-] to [-] or [-] paces outside Wuche City.

Touman watched the battle that day, the Qin army made several intensive shots, and the [-] pioneer troops who attacked the city had already lost hundreds of people before they approached the moat.Looking at the death formation formed by the dense crossbow arrows on the battlefield, even Touman, who has been on the battlefield for a long time, unconsciously felt heart palpitations.Fortunately, he immediately issued an order that the siege troops retreated in order to avoid greater damage.

Simple siege tools are useless to the strict defense system of Wuchecheng.Just the wide moat in front of the city wall was an insurmountable gulf.

This undoubtedly shows that Wuchecheng is a hard bone that the Huns can hardly gnaw.Touman had a plan in his mind, it would undoubtedly be difficult to capture Wuchecheng.First of all, we must mobilize a large army to cut off the upper waterway and make the moat useless.But this is only the first step. To occupy the walls of the Five-Car City, at least ten or twenty thousand warriors' lives are required to achieve the goal.The loss of the storm was too great. His army came from thousands of miles, and his plan was to rely on the surprise attack to succeed. Who knew that before his army arrived, Wuche City had already taken precautions. See the protracted war.

The Huns were originally a nomadic people, and the people were even soldiers, and the herdsmen's camp was the military camp.Its military potential is huge. If you can fight it, you can fight it. If you can't fight it, you can escape thousands of miles. This group of Qin people can't do anything about them.The five-car city is surrounded by fertile grassland for hundreds of miles. As long as there are enough cattle and sheep, Touman can face the Qin army in the five-car city. It doesn't matter if it takes a year or two.

But if he did this, Touman would have to ask the Xiongnu in the Hetao area to deliver grain and grass, and move the base camp of the Xiongnu here.In this way, the Great Xiongnu was caught between the Da Yuezhi and the Qin State.It is surrounded by mountains, and once it is surrounded, tens of thousands of horses will become turtles in the urn.

Such a strategic prediction is undoubtedly the worst, but as Shanyu of the Xiongnu, Touman also had to make the worst plan.

Huns camp, Touman king tent.

Touman's heart already had the intention to retreat, but this expedition was only consuming food and grass.Several brave generals who had followed him for many years were also slaughtered a few days ago.If he retreated at this moment, the loss of his personal prestige would be too great.

The tent was empty, Touman walked back and forth, hesitating in his heart.But when he remembered the content of the old shaman's divination, the hesitation in his heart instantly dissipated, and his determination to conquer Wuchecheng became firm again.

This Anxi King Ying Ziyi will be the biggest enemy of the Xiongnu in the future, and the main culprit of the decline of the Great Xiongnu.

Originally, he didn't believe it, but after seeing it in the past few days, he had to admit that the contents of the old shaman's divination were very likely to come true.Ying Ziyi lived for a day, and he could not sleep and eat for a day.

This war is not just about money, horses and food.Touman's current goal is only one, to eliminate Ying Ziyi at all costs.

"Chanyu, we have caught a few spies of the Nanmanzi." Just as Touman was about to write a letter to recruit the Hetao Xiongnu branch, he heard the voices of soldiers outside the tent.

"Spies?" Touman said suspiciously, "Bring them up."

Seven ragged, wet big men were tied in, and only one of them could be heard shouting: "Chanyu, we are not spies, we are people from Zhao who escaped from Wuchecheng."

"People from the State of Zhao?" Touman was stunned for a moment, and then he realized that the State of Zhao was a country that was destroyed by the State of Qin a few years ago.He asked, "You said you weren't spies, but the five-car city was brightly lit. How did you escape?"

"That's just Ying Ziyi's bluff. In fact, Wuchecheng has already been strong from outside and inside. Two days ago, the bonfires on the city's head were running out of fuel, but the Qin army demolished the houses by force, and people's grievances boiled. In Wuche City, there is a shortage of food and fuel. Many residents have frozen to death and starved to death. People are panicking. Several of our brothers are originally from the State of Zhao, and they have a grudge against the State of Qin. We do not want to die in Wuche City. , so I found a space to escape tonight and wanted to go to Shanyu."

"Then, tell me, how many days are there in the five-car city?" Touman asked.

"The food supply has been cut off, and there is less than five days' worth of food in the five-carriage city," the man replied.

"It's not a spy!" Touman shouted loudly, "I think you are a mere war slave, how can you know the exact amount of food and forage for the Qin army?"

"Shanyu Rongqi." Seeing the sword and axe, the man replied calmly: "When I was in Zhao State, I was the commander in charge of food and grass, and was good at arithmetic, so I paid special attention to the food and grass of the Qin army. , every time the Qin army transports grain and forage carts, I memorize it in my heart, and I calculate it in my head, and then I get the specific number."

"There is still such a strange person in the world?" Touman was suspicious, and the minister who was in charge of food and forage among the generals came and asked him to put a few bamboo slips in front of the person.He said, "I'll give you half an hour to calculate the amount of food and grass Bendanyu brought, otherwise, you will feed the wolves today."

The number recorded on the bamboo slips, even the most skilled at arithmetic among the Huns, would be difficult to count without four or five hours.Touman watched him laugh attentively.

Suizhi smiled, glanced at each slip, and in a moment, came up with the answer.He smiled and said, "I'm afraid I only have one month's food in the account."

Touman was shocked when he heard the words, this was a top secret and only a few people knew about it, but now he was found out by a prisoner and asked, "How did you know?"

"Naturally this account told me?" The man said with a slight smile, leaning over and bowing.

Touman was curious, stood up from his seat, and said with a big laugh, "Okay, okay, from today onwards, you are just by my side and manage the food and grass for me!"

"Then my brothers?"

"I will also work with you to serve my Xiongnu! I will order people to prepare warm tents and clean food for you."

The seven people leaned over and bowed, and said, "Thank you, Shanyu."

Touman was very happy, not only because he got a talent tonight, but more importantly, he learned the truth in the five-car city.Less than five days of food, haha!God help me too.Touman laughed loudly, which meant that as long as five days passed, even if they didn't fight, the people in Wuche City would not be able to fight anymore.

For the next four days, Touman launched a tentative attack on Wuchecheng by the army every day. He found that every day passed, the Qin army's counterattack became weaker.On the fourth day, three thousand siege troops had already attacked the moat.

There was a shortage of food in Wuche City, and morale was sluggish. Touman's heart was already convinced by the words of his new treasurer.

"The five-car city has run out of food, pass my order, and the army will rest for two days. At dawn on the third day, my Huns, tens of thousands of troops, vowed to destroy the five-car city and capture and kill Ying Ziyi."

After the siege of the city on the fourth day, Touman found all the generals and vowed.

On the fifth day, the main building of Ying Ziyi was in the inner city of the five-car city.

"Lord, how's it going. How's the acting of my Black Bear brothers these days? Those dogs x Huns, hahaha!" Black Bear's wild laughter spread throughout the hall.

Zhang Han and Li Ergou looked at this foodie with a look of helplessness.

Ying Ziyi smiled, "You guys did a great job."

"My lord, the mutton skewers agreed..." The black bear kept his saliva, looked at Ying Ziyi, and said flatteringly.
