I will not be king in the Spring and Autumn Period

Chapter 381
Ji Le was also worried about Li Ran's safety, so she gave special instructions:

"Husband, no matter where you are, you must remember that no matter what, Le'er needs you to return safely!"

Li Ran couldn't help laughing, and comforted:
"Well, Le'er, just relax!"

Li Ran turned around and left the Jifu in three steps. Ji Le hugged the child and stood at the gate just looking at it.Although they get together less often and leave more often, they don't even see each other for several years.But the two of them agree with each other, and they have become each other's reliance.

Li Ran also made up his mind that once the situation was stabilized, he would take their mother and daughter with him.

When he arrived outside the city, Wang Zichao had been waiting outside for a long time. When he saw Li Ran coming, he bowed and asked Li Ran to board the imperial carriage first, and sit in the same car with Wang Zichao.

The army is controlled by Sun Wu, and the logistics is handled by Fan Li. They each have their own abilities, and Li Ran has long believed in them.

Inside the car, the prince turned to Li Ran and asked:
"Sir, do you have an idea?"

Li Ran nodded.

"Right now, we can temporarily take the capital as a place to stay. We are not many in number, and we can recruit more followers in the capital to help us achieve success!"

Now it is Gong Jian who is guarding the capital. As an earl, he has already served as a senior official of the Zhou royal family during the period of King Zhou Jing, and now he directly obeys orders from Shan Qi.

Beijing is easy to defend and difficult to attack, but it is indeed a good choice.If the capital can be won, then it can be used as a stronghold, and then Xu Tucheng Zhou.

Not far from the capital is the fiefdom of the Gan family, and its suzerain, Gan Qiang, may come to help Gong Jian at any time.

Therefore, what Li Ran and the tens of thousands of people in Wang Zichao need to do is to fight quickly and beat Gong Jian in front of Gan Loach!

Wang Zichao showed embarrassment about this.

"I'm afraid it's not so easy to win the capital. Since ancient times, the attackers have to be several times the defenders. We only have ten thousand people, and there are more than ten thousand defenders. If we want to win a quick battle, how easy is it?"

Li Ran nodded.

"Well, what the prince said is very true. At that time, it is indeed necessary to use some tactics! Let's get to the place first, and then make calculations."

The reason why Li Ran was unwilling to make a premature decision was entirely because the situation on the battlefield was changing rapidly. Although some plans could be made in advance, too much thinking would only increase troubles.

It seems that along the way, they got a surprise.

Due to the reputation that Wang Zichao had accumulated in the Zhou family before, when many people in Wang Jinei heard that Wang Zichao led his troops back, they came to vote one after another.

Although these people have never practiced before, for Sun Wu, the more leaders there are, the better.What's more, Sun Wu's leading soldiers are good at using battles instead of training!

In Sun Wu's view, everything is imaginary if he has not been trained on the battlefield.Only learning to fight in war is more effective than any training.

Unknowingly, when they approached the capital, the size of the army had reached almost [-], and they took down several villages as places for supply dispatch.

Sun Wu let the previous [-] elites be the main force, and those who joined later served as the reserve team.

After Sun Wu and Fan Li arrived, they spied on the enemy's situation again.At this moment, the enemy has already got the news, so they are also ready to work hard.The walls of the city are also built extremely strong, if they want to attack by force, they will definitely suffer.

Sun Wu yelled outside the city for a while, but the other party ignored him, and Sun Wu had nothing to do about it.

Another scout reported that Gandhi's soldiers were also ready to go and were rushing here at this moment.

That is to say, once Li Ran decides to attack the city, he must break through the city gate and enter within two days, otherwise, once Gan Loach leads the troops to arrive, they will undoubtedly lose.

Li Ran, Sun Wu, Fan Li and others discussed how to make a choice. Jingyi is the only way to take Chengzhou. If they don't take this place, they will have no stronghold.Even if it is forcibly spared, I am afraid that I will bear the risk of being attacked by the enemy.

Everyone felt very embarrassed, and at this moment, Fan Li said:
"The top priority right now, Li thinks we should lure the enemy into battle! At that time, our department may have an opportunity to take advantage of!"

Li Ran also deeply agrees with this, but how easy is it to lure the enemy into battle?
When Li Ran was in the Chu camp, he used a strategy to lure the enemy into battle, and that was the battle of Shujiu.At that time, Li Ran used the luggage as a bait to make Shu Jiu's defenders eager to make contributions, and took the initiative to attack, but Li Ran counterattacked the city, and Shu Jiu was captured.

However, this method may still be useful for barbarians who are not good at thinking and are in short supply.But at this moment, if it is used to deal with the defenders in Jingyi, the chances of winning are not great.

After all, they are both the kingdoms of Zhuxia, and they all know the basics, so they will naturally be more cautious about such tricks to lure the enemy.Moreover, there is sufficient food and grass in Jingyi, so there is no need to take risks for this.

And if you want to take down the city, the best way is undoubtedly to surround it without attacking it. When the food in the city runs out, and then supplement it with the method of attacking the heart, wait for the opportunity to counter the defenders in the city, and then you can break down without attacking.

But this method takes too long, and now it seems obviously impossible.

After a lot of deliberation, Li Ran finally revealed a smile on the corner of his mouth.

"The luggage may not be able to lure them, but His Royal Highness may be able to!"

Wang Zichao had been listening on the sidelines, and he couldn't help being taken aback when he heard this.

"Why did Mr. Ziming say that?"

Li Ran smiled slightly and said:

"In their eyes, His Highness the Prince is the culprit. If they can capture His Highness, it will be a great achievement! Even if Gong Jian can bear it, it is impossible for him to be indifferent to this! It's just... this plan requires His Highness's life." I wonder if the prince is willing to take risks?"

Wang Zichao was also somewhat courageous, and said calmly:
"Sir, since you have a good plan, there is no need to say much. Even if it is dangerous, Chao will cooperate! Please tell me, sir, what should Chao do?"

Wang Zichao originally came to invite Li Ran out of the mountain when he had no other way out, but all he can do now is to cooperate unconditionally.As the saying goes, there is no doubt about employing people, but there is no need for doubting people.

Li Ran heard the words, but he didn't know why, he just felt that the prince's dynasty in front of him was indeed a bit of the legacy of the old prince Jin.

At this moment, it seemed that his childhood best friend was right in front of his eyes.

That's right, if Prince Jin survived the catastrophe, and even successfully succeeded to the throne of King Zhou, with the help of him, Li Ran, it is still unknown to revive the former glory of the Zhou Dynasty.

And this is also something that Li Ran has regretted all his life, and if Wang Zichao can really be as wise as he looks now, Li Ran will definitely help him achieve his success with sincerity!
"His Royal Highness can lead the army to pretend to attack the city. Remember that when the battle is approaching, you will only be defeated, even if you sell your defeat. At that time, you can order people to abandon their banners and retreat to show weakness and panic. Seeing this situation, Gong Jian must be I can't sit still. If they really come out in full force, then it will be our chance!"

"Fan Li, you will lead the troops to meet His Highness at that time, and then help His Highness counterattack. Remember to fight with the defenders who are leaving the city, and you must not let the Gong army return to the city easily! Changqing, you will lead a team to steal the city at that time. ! The task is arduous, so hurry up!"

Wang Zichao heard about this trick to lure the enemy, but was silent for a while.Although this plan is excellent, it is also extremely risky for him, if he is a little careless, he may be in danger of self-defeating.
