After Spring and Autumn

Chapter 408 Perception is not good
Xu Cheng was also very entangled at this time. There was still a group of naval troops behind him. If they were guarding the port at this time, they would not be able to directly attack Huaicheng.

This was a dilemma, and at the same time he was a little surprised. He didn't expect that Han Guo had unknowingly trained such a powerful navy. During this period of time, he fought several times, and the opponent did not lose the wind.

Under such circumstances, how to choose has become a difficult problem. After all, the current naval army is only a lone army to some extent, but it has been discovered by the opponent and has lost the effect of surprise attack.

In this case, Huai City is likely to have made sufficient preparations, so it is best to get news from Wu Jun. Besides, when Xu Cheng was hesitating, a military marquis rushed in, and he hurriedly saluted and reported road.

"General, more than [-] people have been killed from Huai City, and they are now heading towards the port."

Xu Cheng laughed as soon as he heard it. Although he was leading a navy army, there were about [-] to [-] people, and the other party only sent [-] million people. He really didn't take him seriously, so he gave an order with a cold smile.

"Since this is the case, then this general will personally lead the troops into battle to see how powerful these soldiers in Huai City are."

With the sound of the horn, Xu Cheng directly led 4 people out of the camp to fight, and rushed towards the Han army.

This time it was Li Xin and Peng Ji who were leading the army. Jing Tie had originally asked him to come, but he didn't want to lose this kind of battle, so he found an excuse to decline, and Peng Ji volunteered to come forward.

Li Xin watched the other party coming aggressively, with a smile on his face, and glanced at Peng Ji beside him.

"The first time you were asked to lead an army, you were defeated. Do you have any resistance in your heart?"

Peng Ji laughed when he heard this, he sighed helplessly, and said with emotion.

"The Marquis of Han has taken good care of us old brothers. To be honest, we are not capable enough, so it is difficult for us to take on the big job. You were originally a military marquis, so it is just right for you to be the chief general of the first army."

"But other people don't have this kind of ability. Although the Marquis of Han didn't say it clearly, what he does in Han country is to emphasize fairness and justice, so we people have to know what to do."

"When I find a time, I should remind Jing Tie and the others that it is best to be able to position myself properly and not to cause trouble for the Marquis of Han. You must know that we were in the Chu army back then, and we were nothing more than ordinary soldiers."

"Even if your position is a little stronger, and the salary you get is not as good as the infantry of the Han Kingdom now, I am already satisfied, so it doesn't matter whether you win or lose, as long as it is beneficial to South Korea."

Li Xin also nodded heavily, and said with a nostalgic look on his face.

"Back when I came to Huaiyi with the Marquis of Han, I also led the army to fight. To be honest, if the Marquis of Han hadn't made a decisive decision in the face of danger, I felt many times that I might not be able to come back alive."

"The situation is better now. If we follow others to fight for power, we will fail the hard work of the Marquis of Han. After this battle is over, let's get together in private and talk about it. .”

Because the battle we are fighting now is a defeat, we have already made preparations in advance, but most people don't know their intentions. Li Xin stared at Wu Jun on the opposite side, and when he saw that the two sides were about to fight, he immediately ordered to shoot arrows. .

After the two waves of arrow rain, Li Xin saw that the distance between the two sides was getting closer, and immediately ordered the withdrawal of troops.

Good guy, many soldiers of the Han army who were preparing to fight could not believe their ears, but the military orders were like mountains during the battle, and they dared not disobey the orders of the general, so they could only hold back their anger. Will turn around and run away.

Xu Cheng was startled when he saw it, but when he saw the Han army running without hesitation, he felt a little puzzled. After all these years, the Han army's prestige has been established. How can it be so vulnerable?
But after staring at the film, he also saw some clues. After all, he was the leader of the army, and he could still distinguish the regular army from the ordinary grass-roots team. He immediately realized that these soldiers were just here to make up numbers.

So Xu Cheng no longer hesitated in his heart, and ordered the soldiers to start chasing. This pursuit went directly to Huaicheng, and when another group of Han troops came to meet them, Xu Cheng ordered Wu Jun to stop.

Seeing these people retreating into the city recklessly, Xu Cheng felt a little regretful. If he had known earlier, he should have brought more people. Maybe he could take this opportunity to follow these defeated troops and directly attack Huai City. .

But now that he is here, he can't just pat his ass and leave. After Xu Cheng thought about it, he ordered the soldiers to set up camp on the spot, making a posture of attacking the city, preparing to test the reaction in Huai City, and at the same time sent people to start going around. scouting.

Almost an hour later, military lords reported back one after another, saying that no ambush was found nearby, and through visual inspection, the number of defenders on the city wall of Huai City was not too many, that is, 3 to [-].

At this moment, Xu Cheng immediately changed his mind. He had several times as many soldiers as the opponent. If he attacked the city with all his strength at this time, even if he lost the port, as long as he could win Huai City, it would be a great achievement.

At that time, as long as Wu Jun's brigade comes, the whole Han country will be over. This is mainly because Xu Cheng feels that he has already seen the weakness of the Han army, so he feels that there is an opportunity to take advantage of it.

And judging from the current comparison of the strength of the Han army and the Wu army, he didn't think Wu Wang Fucha would be defeated, so a large number of Wu troops went ashore directly and began to attack Huaicheng, and quickly made preparations for the project.

The siege began the next day, and as Xu Cheng expected, the Huaicheng defenders did not resist resolutely, and even seemed to have no rules. This also made him full of confidence, and even successfully boarded the city ​​head.

If it weren't for the soldiers in the city fighting hard, they might have taken the opportunity to take down Huai City. However, the navy of the Han Dynasty also managed to take down the port at this time, and part of the Wu army's navy took their ships and began to withdraw to the nearby islands. .

However, when they attacked the city on the third day, the situation suddenly reversed. Above the city of Huaicheng, bed crossbows began to be fired one after another. None of the engineering equipment that Wu Jun had just built was spared, and all of them were damaged.

At this time Xu Cheng already felt that something was wrong, as if he had fallen into some kind of trap, that is, at this time in Huaicheng, he sent an envoy to say that he came to persuade him to surrender.
