I really just want to lose my fortune

For Li Ru's safety, Dong Zhuo also sent Xia Luqi to follow him.

"Okay, I'll show up here, so that everyone can see our existence." Li Ru said to Xia Luqi: "Only seeing reinforcements can inspire the army's morale."

"Yes, military advisor!" Shaluchi replied.

He also didn't expect that Li Ru could really borrow five thousand soldiers and horses. These five thousand soldiers and horses were not too many, but they were definitely not many.

As long as you get more flags, you can look like ten thousand soldiers.

In addition to their own combat effectiveness, these people also brought morale bonuses, which was definitely a booster for Xiliang.

Soon, Li Ru's army officially entered the Xiliang Army's perspective.

…………

Hao Zhao, who was guarding the city in the distance, looked at the flags of Li Ru's soldiers and horses, as well as their numbers, and suddenly smiled.

Now there are remnants of soldiers everywhere in the whole city, they are wearing tattered clothes, some of them were picked off from the dead comrades.

The weapons they use are the same. Five thousand people can't make up three thousand sets of weapons and armor.

The houses in the city were almost demolished, and they were all used as tools for defending the city.

Hao Zhao is really the one who plays defense to the extreme.

When the city in front was being attacked, Hao Zhao did not just defend the city like a normal general, but used time and materials, as well as the strength of the defenders in the city, to repair various fortifications.

In addition to the newly built fortifications, Hao Zhao also has conventional and unconventional routines to deal with siege tools.

When the enemy set up a ladder, Hao Zhao shot it with a rocket.

When the enemy attacked the city with a chariot, Hao Zhao tied a stone mill with a big rope and smashed it, and all the chariots were broken.

Where did the disc come from?Of course it was borrowed from people's homes...

When the enemy used the well as a cover to fill up the trenches and was about to climb up the wall, they found the second wall in the city...

This city is actually surrounded by two layers of city walls, who would know that?

Zhuge Liang also used Digger Army at this time, preparing to dig tunnels to break into the city, but Hao Zhao saw the trick and dug many deep ditches to cut off the Digger Army's route, making it automatically exposed.

When defending the city normally, use rolling logs and stones without shells, use bows and arrows when there are no rolling logs and stones, and use long spears as javelins without bows and arrows.

Of course, there are mixed usages as well.

Therefore, the soldiers following Hao Zhao looked extremely embarrassed, but they were full of fighting spirit.

They thought very simply at first, thinking that they were abandoned sons. After all, they were not led by any of Dong Zhuo's famous generals.

In the end, Hao Zhao showed them what the ultimate art of defending a city is.

Even Dong Zhuo didn't know that he still had such talents under his command, who could stop the advance of the imperial army. This Hao Zhao also gave Dong Zhuo more breathing opportunities.

"Did you see it?" Hao Zhao pointed at Li Ru's soldiers in the distance and said, "We have no fewer than ten thousand reinforcements, and the imperial court's troops can't even beat us, let alone we have reinforcements?"

"I'll wait, we will win!"

Hearing this, the soldiers cheered up one by one.

"Definitely!"

"Definitely!"

"Definitely!"

For a while, the morale was really like a rainbow.

Boom!

Just as they were shouting, Li Ru's camp was suddenly shelled!

Boom, boom, boom...

A round of shells hit Li Ru's army as if they didn't want money.

"Damn it..." Hao Zhao's face changed, was he in an ambush?

How is it possible, I don't even know the military division's marching route!

…………

Not to mention Hao Zhao, even Li Ru didn't react for a while.

The shelling came so suddenly!

You know, this is not modern, and the movement of the cannons can be said to be very difficult. At present, these cannons seem to be arranged in advance.

Damn, how did they know our marching route, no one was left behind along the way.

Also, I'm not taking the best route.

"The cannon is set up, there are spies, rush to me!"

Regardless of whether there are spies or not, a reason must be found now.

With Li Ru's order, five thousand soldiers and horses moved forward.

Since it had been carefully corrected before this point, the speed of the five thousand soldiers and horses could be described as extremely fast.

"Military teacher, what's going on?" Xia Luqi asked Li Ru during the march.

"It can only be that someone leaked it." Li Ru said with a sullen face.

In terms of ruthlessness, not to mention the Three Kingdoms period, even in the vast history, it is rare to see someone who is more ruthless than Li Ru.

However, Li Ru is not top-notch when it comes to military tactics.

"Where are we going to break through?" Xia Luqi asked.

"Did the other party figure out that we won't take the best route?" Li Rulang said, "The third route!"

I saw that Li Ru's soldiers and horses ran towards a city in a hurry.

hum!

At this moment, a fire spread from both sides of Li Ru's soldiers and horses.

This step seems to have been calculated by the other party.

Now Li Ru was completely confused. Is it because they are too extravagant and blocked all the roads, or is the enemy really predictable?

I don't believe there is such a god!

Li Ru felt that Dong Zhuo must have leaked the news, otherwise it would have been very difficult for Li Ru to ask for help.

What's more, the timing is still so accurate.

This was definitely not arranged when Li Ru returned to the army, otherwise it would not be so fast and perfect.

"what!"

"Help!"

"Fire, fire, big fire!"

For a moment, flames ignited on the bodies of many soldiers, and rockets shot down from both sides at high speed.

"Go to the city quickly, only the city is safe." Li Ru shouted.

Soon, his soldiers and horses headed towards the city.

…………

far away.

Zhuge Liang's feather fan and scarf quietly watched Li Ru's soldiers and horses run towards the place he wanted.

"Military teacher, you are truly a god!" Qin Ye's eyes were piercing.

He was very clear that Zhuge Liang definitely did not spread his army all over the place, it was he who really counted all of Li Ru's routes.

According to a confirmed route, the subsequent route and the countermeasures Li Ru adopted can be clearly calculated. This man's use of troops is really a genius of ghosts and gods.

Siege depends on hard power, Hao Zhao is invulnerable, Zhuge Liang is naturally helpless.

Just like when Zhuge Liang made the Northern Expedition in history, as long as the enemy army stood firm, they couldn't come out, and Zhuge Liang didn't have so many options.

But as long as it is a duel in the wild, Zhuge Liang seems to have opened his eyes.

It is not an exaggeration to describe it as a clever calculation.

Zhuge Liang also showed a relaxed smile. This battle has saved a lot.

Faced with Hao Zhao's sense of powerlessness before, Zhuge Liang really didn't want to experience it again.

As time went by, Li Ru's troops entered the city Zhuge Liang expected.

"Siege three and one missing, shout out to persuade them to surrender, and then... attack the city!" Zhuge Liang's eyes flashed coldly: "This person must have won Dong Zhuo's trust. As long as he is defeated... this Hao Zhao may go to the rescue."

"In that case, we will win this battle." Qin Ye clenched his fists tightly, "As long as Dong Zhuo is eliminated, the blood of countless rebels will cool down, and there will be no chaos everywhere."

"En." Zhuge Liang nodded.

…………

After entering the city, Shaluqi suddenly felt like he was alive after a catastrophe.

He felt that if the enemy came to ambush two more soldiers, these soldiers would not even be able to enter the city.

He was about to share the joy of victory with Li Ru, but he saw Li Ru's face sinking like water, and his face was very ugly.

"Sir?" Shaluchi shuddered.

"Count the number of people." Li Ru's voice was very weak, but Xia Luqi could hear that Li Ru was extremely angry.

Since Li Ru's debut, he has always been the only one who plots against others, and no one else plots against him.

Except for those who helped King Zhao, as long as Dong Zhuo listened to Li Ru, he never suffered a big loss.

Obviously hard power is not as good as the imperial court, but it can still survive until now, which is the best proof.

"Yes!" Shaluqi replied.

Soon, Xia Luqi turned to Li Rufu and said, "Just now, we lost nearly 3000 people along the way."

"Understood." Li Ru nodded.

"Military Master, what should I do?" Xia Luqi asked.

"I know what they are going to do. They know the route of our march, and they laid an ambush in advance, just to defeat us. Just now I saw that the city was still holding on, and the imperial court must have been unable to attack for a long time." Li Rudao: "They want to Use us to boost morale..."

"What?" Shaluqi said angrily, "I'll go straight out and fight them, don't be humiliated by them like this!"

Li Ru looked at Xia Luqi silently.

Looking at Li Ru's emotionless eyes, Xia Luqi couldn't help shivering.

"No, distribute the food, materials, weapons, and armor we brought to the common people." Li Rudao: "As long as they are willing to put on armor and take up weapons, we will give them food!"

"Huh?" Sha Luqi looked confused.

"Tell them, after taking it, stick it on the city wall. When the imperial army arrives, they can surrender on the spot without harming their lives." Li Rudao: "But, when they shout, whoever surrenders will be killed!"

"We pretended to be ordinary people and escaped through the unenclosed door? We only kept people, but not weapons and armor. This, this is too..." Xia Luqi wanted to say, this is too shameful.

The most important thing is that the most valuable thing for a soldier is not the life, but the weapons and armor together.

"Do it for me! Although I don't know who I am playing against, I want to let him see who I am, Li Wenyou."

Li Ru's eyes instinctively looked in the direction of Zhuge Liang.

…………

"Hahaha, what the military adviser expected was right. Those soldiers couldn't suppress the people in the city at all. At this time, many people had already fled along the city gate." Zhang Fei laughed and said, "Dong Zhuo still needs to resettle these people when they go back... Ha, he doesn't seem to be alive then."

"Well, General Su, let's attack the city." Seeing that Hao Zhao was still unmoved, Qin Ye said towards the city in front of him.

I have already shouted just now, and the soldiers in the city have already stood on the city wall, and they have no intention of surrendering.

Zhuge Liang also had a full understanding of this city before, and there were no defensive equipment in the city.

Looking at the soldiers standing at the top of the city, they are all listless. Even if they resist desperately, they will be defeated in one attack.

"Okay!" Su Dingfang couldn't think of any other way, and this city really gave him a desire to attack.

"Rush me!"

Su Dingfang swung his long sword, and under the cover of the chariot, he rushed directly to the outside of the city gate.
