King of Liao at the end of Han Dynasty

Chapter 85 Fighting Gongsundu (8)

At the head of Lelang City, Xu Liang walked up to Li Lin and said, "General, this subordinate suddenly thought of something!"

Li Lin said, "Say!"

Xu Liang said, "This Gongsun Du sent people to cut wood, saying that he was building siege equipment, but his subordinates think otherwise!"

"Nonsense!" Li Linbai glanced at Xu Liang and said, "Gongsun Du's army came from afar with little food, and it took a long time to attack me, Le Lang, and even paid for the soldiers and food. How can there be time to rebuild the attacking city?"

Xu Liangliang nodded loudly, "This subordinate also thinks so. They are almost out of food now and should retreat quickly, but there is no movement in their camp. According to this situation, Gongsun Du wants to fight quickly! How to fight quickly? Hmph! The inside should cooperate with the outside!"

"Then how to cooperate with the inside and the outside?" Li Lin nodded. He had thought about it for a long time, and wanted to hear Xu Liang's opinion. "Xu Liang, tell me..."

Xu Liang thought for a while and slowly said, "The inside should be combined with the outside, the most suitable ones are those who pretend to be ordinary people in the city..."

"Hehe!" Li Lin nodded and asked, "Are there still people from nearby entering Lelang today?"

"This..." Xu Liang hesitated and said, "A few days ago, there was one, but the thief Gongsun Du was righteous enough to let those common people enter the city, but today he didn't..."

"Justice?" Li Lin cut a voice, and then said, "Xu Liang, let's order three hundred elite soldiers from our party, wearing a common people's clothes, to go out of the city tonight, stay far away, and put on common people's clothes, tomorrow In the morning, enter slowly, and then you will place them and the people outside the city together!"

"Is the general going to..." Xu Liang opened his eyes and said excitedly, "Wonderful! Kill three birds with one stone!"

'Yep?Kill three birds with one stone?I just want to resettle some of my own people among the common people in the city. How can I kill three birds with one stone? Li Lin smiled helplessly in his heart, but in front of Xu Liang, Yayao pretended to be aggressive.

"Cough! Tell me!" Li Lin pretended to know everything.

Xu Liang quickly said, "To confuse the enemy's sight, let the spy in the city know that we have sent an army, but they don't know where it is going, so they are suspicious and report this to the enemy outside the city. We will take the opportunity to capture and torture the army. , this is one..." Li Lin bowed his head and pretended that Xu Liang was very nice, and did not speak.

"Secondly, let the soldiers return tomorrow, lie about the people in the vicinity, and order several of them to do Gongsundu secret work, talk to the spies in the city, let out their mouths, and distinguish the enemy from ourselves." Li Lin remained silent.

"Thirdly, if this strategy is used, the words and deeds of those people will be under our eyes. If they make any trouble, our soldiers can report it to us immediately..."

Li Lin nodded and said, "Well, not bad! They all said that the idea is right, let's go and implement it!"

Xu Liang cupped his hands and bowed, "No!"

Looking at the figure running down the wall in his heart, Li Lin secretly wiped his cold sweat, this kid is really good, well, he will work harder to pretend in the future!Don't let him see it...

After midnight, Xu Liang ordered three hundred elite soldiers and left the city with great fanfare. When 300 people left the city, the sound was not loud or small. Xu Liang turned his head and glanced at the direction of Gongsun Du's camp, with a smile on his face...

Li Lin found Yan Rou and Yan Zhi again, and lost to them for a long time. The two explained and nodded repeatedly. They had some doubts that there were spies of Gongsun Du hidden among the people.

It is said that the three hundred elite soldiers will carry a package with a set of ordinary people's clothes inside. After a long journey, they will send many people to check the surrounding area, and they will quickly change it until they are sure that there is no one around. The waist knife and leather armor that he carried with him were placed in one place, and secretly marked, waiting to be picked up later.

On the second day, the sky was bright.Li Lin saw some people coming in groups of twos and threes from a distance, and secretly smiled in his heart. He was a little surprised when he got closer, and saw that there were some old and weak women in the team. What's going on?

It turned out that Xu Liang secretly told the generals of the Chen family that if they saw people fleeing the war coming to Lelang, they should try their best to get involved.If not?Then there is no other way, anyway, just arrive at Lelang before noon.

There are about a thousand people in this group, mixed with soldiers. They saw Gongsundu scouts more than once, but those scouts saw them and didn't stop them. They just let them go to Lelang, presumably Gongsundu and others had ordered them .

Li Lin glanced at the people in the team, and felt that he seemed to have seen some of them yesterday. He suddenly understood a little bit in his heart, called his subordinates, and placed these people and his [-] elite soldiers near those temporary houses, and sent another Some people helped them build some simple thatched huts.

When Xu Liang heard about this, he walked around the people under the pretext of inspection, said some innocuous words, and naturally saw his own soldiers, but he just nodded and left.

Xu Liang went to the top of the city to report the matter to Li Lin, "General!" Xu Liang bowed and saluted.

Li Lin waved his hand and said eagerly, "How is it? Have you arranged it?"

"Everything is ready!" Xu Liang looked at Li Lin, who was still wearing a quilt, and felt a chill in his heart. Since Li Lin began to besiege the city from Gongsundu, the top of the city has become Li Lin's home. Resting here, he went down to the top of the city during the day to do his own living and discuss strategies with other people. Xu Liang was proud of having such a general.

Li Lin nodded and said, "That's good!"

Xu Liang went again, "According to what my subordinates see, Gongsun Du will take the city within two days..."

"En!" Li Lin nodded and was about to speak when a soldier hurried in and said, "My lord, because there is a lack of firewood in the city, all the people in the city say they want to go out to look for it. My heart is very strong, I'm afraid it's..."

"En?" Li Lin frowned and asked, "Where are the most common people?"

The soldier hesitated for a moment and said, "Ah... most of those people are nearby people, not living in the city, but there are also quite a few people in Lelang City..."

It is estimated that it was brought up!Li Lin frowned secretly, suddenly his heart moved, he thought of something, and said quickly, "This is the case with Ximen, what about the other three?"

Xu Liang was taken aback for a moment, then understood Li Lin's meaning, and said immediately, "This subordinate will contact Sanmen..."

Li Lin interrupted Xu Liang, and said slowly, "Blindly blocking is not the solution, we need to pay attention to the will of the people, since they want to go out, let them go out, in my opinion, Gongsun Dujun will not do anything to them, but……"

Li Lin said, "However...you have to count how many people have gone out!"

"Xu Fei..." Xu Liang was very clever, and he understood at one point, "Xu Fei is the Gongsun Du thief in the city who saw that he didn't have enough accomplices, so he encouraged the people to go out of the city to find firewood, so that Gongsun Du outside the city could take the opportunity to sneak in? " Li Lin nodded.

"I really don't know how to live or die!" Xu Liang sneered, "Could it be that they still want to send thousands of Gongsundu to pretend to be ordinary people? At most a few hundred people, after entering Lelang City, it's not so easy to get out, so cut him off first. arm!"

"It's best..." Li Lin sighed as soon as he said the beginning, "I guess it's too late. With the ability to speak, if people from the other three sects leave the city, they will leave early. It's useless to guard against it. Damn! Xu Liang, Immediately help Ziyi in Daocheng, I only need an estimated number!"

"Promise!" Xu Liang was also anxious, and immediately got down from the top of the wall, followed closely by the soldier.

After Xu Liang left, Li Lin pointed his finger at his forehead while thinking hard about Gongsun Dujun's next move.

"950 three..." Xu Liang stood on the city wall, looked coldly at the people leaving the city, and counted silently in his heart, "one thousand... one thousand three hundred..."

A total of nearly [-] people went out. Such a huge number really shocked Xu Liang, but recalling what Li Lin said before, he understood in his heart that the people are the most happy!
Although Gongsundu's army is gathered outside the city, as long as someone opens the head, there will be hundreds of thousands of people following behind. In this way, as long as the soldiers who have been planted by themselves slowly approach the leading "people", Might be able to get some useful information...  

The people dispersed after leaving the city, except for the direction of Gongsundu's camp, other places, as long as there was flammable wood, they went to chop it.Taking advantage of this opportunity, a few Gongsundu soldiers who were among the common people secretly gave a wink, and immediately two or three "common people" walked away...

"What?" Gongsun Du in the camp shouted loudly, "Three hundred elite soldiers left the city yesterday?"

"Yes!" Said the fine work.

Three hundred elite soldiers... what can they do?Gongsun Du thought hard, if there was a surprise attack, there would be a little less of these soldiers, there were still a thousand soldiers who robbed the camp last time, but no matter what, they can't be let go like this!A few days ago, Li Lin's move made Gongsun Du panic.

Gongsun Du is very distressed now, the news brought by the meticulous work can be said to be one good and one bad, the bad news is that he doesn't know where the three hundred elite soldiers are going, so he has to be careful everywhere, the good news is that his opportunity has come!Those three hundred elite soldiers... Damn it!This Bing Yuan is really hateful!
Gongsundu thought about it for a long time, then suddenly he jumped up against the case, and said in a deep voice, "Pass down the order, and after tonight's midnight, we should cooperate with each other inside and out to seek joy!"

"Yes!" All the soldiers responded.

In the middle of the night, there was no one on the streets of Lelang City, only a few patrolling soldiers walking back and forth.

Li Lin sat leaning against the city wall, and yawned sleepily. Why didn't this nasty Gongsun Du attack the city yet?He looked back at the top of the city tower, and secretly said in his heart, didn't the other party show a flaw?He got up and walked back and forth a little annoyed, and finally frowned and looked at the brightly lit city in front of him.

"Dangdangdangdang..." Following a few sounds, Li Lin regained consciousness, and silently recited the words "It's time..."
