The old man laughed, let go of Li Yuanhe's little hand and said, "don't worry! Don't worry! Let me first ask you, if my soldiers suddenly burst into your city, although our forces are the same, what is the outcome? " After asking, there was a look of expectation on the old man's face. Of course, this look was not what Li Yuanhe, who was only a teenager at that time, could understand.
Li Yuanhe's nose is still sucking, but his pouted mouth has been slowly retracted, leaving only some tears in his eyes. After thinking about it carefully, Li Yuanhe shook his head and said, "all my troops are arranged on the wall of the city, ready to deal with the enemy outside the city. If your army suddenly appears in the city, you can be unprepared. Although the number of our troops is the same, I will lose the battle!"
The old man nodded with satisfaction and said with a smile: "good! So this time, I won
Li Yuanhe quit immediately and immediately pointed to the city wall and said, "no! incorrect! Grandfather, you're a liar! There are so many garrisons on my wall, how can you attack me, let alone all your ten stones! Isn't that unhurt! How could that be possible! no way! no way! Start over again
The old man said with a smile, "don't worry! Don't worry! I'll tell you now why I can attack the city directly With that, the old man laughed and bent down to grab the ground. However, he picked up Li Yuan and the lonely stone on the back wall of the city. Then he held it in front of Li Yuanhe and wiped the stone with his thumb, but all the clay on the stone was wiped away at once, revealing a piece of white.
Li Yuanhe immediately widened his eyes and looked at the old man in disbelief. The old man, however, with a proud smile on his face, said, "this one is called a traitor! As the saying goes, war is always deceitful! Your soldiers are all on the wall. Naturally, my traitors can easily open the gate for me. As soon as the gate is opened, my soldiers can directly attack the city. You only have nine stones, but I have eleven stones, plus hit you by surprise! I won this battle
"Well, it's called a traitor!"
Now, Li Yuan and his head keep echoing the old man's words with a smile. All the incomprehension in his mind was immediately connected, and his face changed greatly. Li Yuanhe remembered at this time that all the garrisons in the city had been sent to the head of the city. Xu Wei's vanguard camp went to the warehouse. Even Cheng Hu, the city guard at the north gate, was sent to his own house. At this time, it would be easy for someone to secretly open the gate.
"Lord Wang! Lord Wang After Li Yuanhe wanted to understand the trick of the thieves, even when he ran to Wang Ye's side, he stretched out his hand to hold Wang Ye's sleeve and called to Wang: "please send a team of people to guard the city gate immediately! I'm afraid that the bandits outside the city have spies in the city! " This move is not appropriate for Li Yuanhe's current status, but it's urgent for Li Yuanhe to take care of so much.
Wang was originally pulled by people, and his heart was also very unhappy, but when he turned his head and saw Li Yuanhe, he thought of Li Yuanhe's talent and forced his anger down. However, he did not hear Li Yuanhe's words clearly. He frowned and asked again, "brother Li, what did you just say?"
It's not long ago that Li Shao Cheng was in contact with the army for so many years. In addition, he did not pay attention to the obvious anger on Wang Ye's face. He just repeated what he had just said: "I'm afraid that the bandits outside the city have spies in the city! Will help the thieves open the gate! If the bandits enter the city, it will be very bad! "
This time, the king finally understood Li Yuanhe's words and was surprised. As Li Yuanhe said, now they are able to resist the bandits outside the city, relying entirely on the city wall as a barrier. If we lose this barrier, no matter how elite the garrison is, the more than 1000 people will not be able to stop 20000 people in any case.
"But all I can mobilize is archers." Wang also frowned, "besides, if the archers are transferred from here, how should the city suppress them?" If there were more than 200 archers out of the city, it would have been a problem for more than one archer to cross the city. If the bandits attacked the city, would it not be different from opening the city gate!
At this time, Li Yuanhe couldn't help but turn his head and look at Chen Xuanchu, who is now as white as a sheet of paper. Up to now, he has not come to realize that without him, the infantry battalion has become a complete decoration! As soon as he bit his teeth, Li Yuanhe turned his head and said to Wang, "in that case! Lord Wang! If Lord Chen wakes up, please ask Lord Wang to ask Lord Chen to send a team down to help me! " With that, Li Yuanhe turned around and went down the wall.
"Brother Li!" To tell the truth, Wang did not want Li Yuanhe to take risks. But if Li Yuanhe's analysis was correct, there must be a prince in the capital behind the bandit army outside the city, and it must not be the hands and feet of the noble man behind him. Otherwise, he would not have been unaware. If the city is broken, then others may have a way to live, but he must lose his head. Thinking of this, Wang can not help but shrink his neck, to the mouth of dissuasion and swallow.As soon as Li Yuanhe got off the city, he saw several men in civilian clothes sneaking around the arch entrance of the city gate. It was very suspicious. Li Yuanhe immediately frowned and said to the two men, "go! Who are you? Why stay here? " Said, the foot also did not stop, quickened the speed to walk toward the city gate.
The men were startled by Li Yuanhe's violent drinking. At the same time, they turned their heads and saw Li Yuanhe's black armor. When they saw Li Yuanhe's black armor, a trace of panic appeared on their faces at the same time. One of them immediately returned to normal, worshipped Li Yuanhe respectfully and said, "excuse me, we are all people living outside the city. We came to the city to sell goods yesterday morning, but the gate was closed at noon yesterday. Today I want to see if we can get out of the city already!"
Li Yuanhe went straight to the men, frowned, looked at the men suspiciously, and murmured, "common people?" While reading, while observing these people carefully, Li Yuanhe's heart has already doubted these people. It is not that there is any loophole in the man's answer, on the contrary, it is precisely because the man's answer is too complete. If they were ordinary people, they could not have said everything clearly when Li Yuanhe had not been interrogated carefully. Clearly, he had already set up his words and just recited them. However, Li Yuanhe did not have enough evidence to make an arbitrary judgment.
After seeing the men, Li Yuanhe suddenly brightened his eyes and asked, "since you said you came to sell goods in the city, why don't you see the goods you used to sell? If you come to the city to sell, why don't you have the shoulder pole and basket that brought goods into the city yesterday With that, Li Yuan and Dang even raised the spear in his hand and pointed directly at these men.
These men can't help but be stunned. They are indeed spies who came to steal the gate of the city. Originally thought that their answer is already perfect, is waiting for this soldier to turn back, hands to subdue him. But I didn't expect that such soldiers should observe so carefully, just from their clothes, we can see the problem. At present, the men looked at each other, then quickly wiped from the waist, wiped out a few daggers, and then toward Li Yuanhe.
"It's a spy indeed!" Li Yuanhe snorted coldly, but they were on guard. Fortunately, they thought that something was wrong with them for a long time. Just by looking at the movements of their daggers, they must be well-trained assassins. In the face of their coming figure, Li Yuanhe was not in a hurry, and his eight Zhang spears were dancing in the air.
I heard the jingling sound of several collisions, and Li Yuanhe's spear stopped the killing of those men. As the saying goes, an inch long and an inch strong. What's more, Li Yuanhe's Zhangba spear in his hand is far longer than the ordinary one. However, these spies have only a short dagger in their hands. Therefore, Li Yuanhe beat more with less, and even blocked them.
"Good skill!" The man who had answered Li Yuanhe before was cold and cold, but his face was just plain and showed his sharpness. His eyes, especially, shot at others coldly, as if to freeze people. From the position of him and several other spies, it should be the head of these spies.
Li Yuanhe didn't dare to neglect him. Just at the moment when he forced these men back, Li Yuanhe immediately slipped to the gate of the arch hole of the city gate, and then faced the spies in case they took the opportunity to open the gate. Li Yuanhe saw that the gate of the city had been protected for the time being, and then he was relieved. The spy in front of him said: "who are you? How dare you sneak into Jingnan city! I want to open the gate and let the thieves into the city! Are you really not afraid of the law? "
In fact, Li Yuanhe of course knew that these people were spies of those bandits outside the city. Since he dared to attack the city, how could he be afraid of the king's law. Li Yuanhe asked, but he wanted to buy himself some time. He hoped that Chen Xuanchu would wake up early and send a small team of soldiers to help him!
