Invincible special police swept the three kingdoms

Chapter 294
"Three military advisers? Why can't they attack! With this kind of horn, you have to break through the enemy's camp below the tower before they can attack the city?" Zhao Lei asked.

Jia Xu, Guo Jia, Zhou Yu, you look at me, I look at you, and finally Jia Xu stood up and said: "My lord, what the Yellow Turban Army has arranged is not just a simple horn, but an ordinary horn. It should be like the one under Dong Zhuo during the Battle of Hulao Pass. In Lujiang County in front of you, there are four camps under the city tower, which are completely different from the one at Hulao Pass. Potential!"

"Surrounding situation, what kind of art of war is this?" Zhao Lei had never heard of such an art of war in ancient times.

"This is not actually an art of war, nor is it a formation. Simply put, it is just a strategy to defend the city." Jia Xu said.

"But isn't it necessary to concentrate all the troops in the city to defend the city? What's the use of leaving the troops outside like this without a general guarding them? Isn't this waiting to be attacked by my army?" Zhao Lei asked.

Jia Xu smiled and said, "Hehe, my lord, this kind of formation doesn't need any generals, it just needs enough bows and arrows. Please look carefully, my lord, are there many archers in this camp?"

Zhao Lei nodded.

"With so many archers in the formation, our army will suffer heavy casualties even if we rush up, and there are still many archers on the towers who will reinforce our companions in the camp. More importantly, if we hit the troops to attack the camp in front of us, then we will line up The Yellow Turban Army and other camps on both sides can go around to the rear of our army to attack. If the troops are divided to attack the camps under the four city gates, the strength of the troops will be a bit stretched. I think that the stars in this area may value us It was because of the shortage of troops that he thought of using this rogue method. His purpose is to let our army rush into the city without even touching the city wall and cause heavy losses." Jia Xu analyzed.

Hearing Jia Xu's words, Zhao Lei didn't show much sadness, but said with a smile: "Since Mr. Jia has seen the enemy's countermeasures, he must have found a way to solve it!"

Jia Xu shook his head and said, "Sorry my lord, I haven't thought of any solution yet."

Although Zhao Lei was a little disappointed, he still smiled calmly and said to Jia Xu: "It's okay, although this battle sounds stronger, there is always a way to break it. Today we have been on a long-distance raid for a day, and we should start five miles away from the Lujiang River." Set up a camp in the place where the army rests. We can discuss how to break the encirclement of the Yellow Turban Army and capture Lujiang County."

With Zhao Lei's order, the army quickly retreated for about three miles, set up camp, and rested for a day.

"This Zhao Lei is really treacherous. He saw through my situation and did not attack by force. This person is so thoughtful, no wonder Zhang Chun, an idiot, will die at his hands." Ou Xing on the tower, seeing Zhao Lei retreating, frowned. He couldn't help but lock it tightly, and after a long time, he slowly said: "Hmph! I have been well-known as a great virtuous teacher, how can I be easily defeated by Zhao Lei? This time, I just happened to avenge the great virtuous teacher." Ou Xing finished muttering , He ordered the soldiers to step up their guard against the enemy's sneak attack, and then walked down the tower alone.

And on Zhao Lei's side, everyone's discussions are already in full swing.

"Everyone, now we don't even have a chance to attack the city. What should we do? We can't just fight the enemy like this!" Zhao Lei asked.

"My lord, this kind of formation can only be broken by strong attack, and Ou Xing decided that we are unwilling to attack by force, so he set up this formation." In the big tent, all the counselors spoke one after another.

"We can only attack by force...but there are too many enemy archers..." Zhao Lei muttered to himself after listening to everyone's words.

"Feng Xiao, you are good at divination. I wonder if you can figure out when there will be a foggy day this month." When everyone was arguing, Zhao Lei suddenly asked Guo Jiadao.

"My lord, why do you think it's a foggy day?" Guo Jia asked.

"Don't ask, just do the math for me first, I need this foggy day to break the surrounding situation." Zhao Lei said.

Guo Jia shrugged helplessly, then took out a hanging sign from his bosom, and then took out a compass, tossing the hanging sign at will, and then he was muttering something. After a while, Guo Jia Jia slowly opened his eyes and said to Zhao Lei: "My lord, according to my calculations, there will be heavy fog in three days, about two hours in the morning, and because the stone pavilion is close to the Yangtze River, the humidity is extremely heavy. This time the fog will be very thick and will last for about three days. In other words, there will be heavy fog in the early mornings of those three days.”

Zhao Lei was overjoyed after hearing this, and said to everyone: "Everyone, I have a way to break the surrounding situation. To break the surrounding situation, two steps are needed. First, the first step is to draw the bottom line. Foggy weather. Three days later, the foggy day will be the time to implement the plan. So, generals, within three days, you must order all the Yangzhou soldiers to make some scarecrows, and each will have a share. But remember, scarecrows can’t be done casually. Take out the tents to avoid being discovered by the enemy. Three days later, these scarecrows will come in handy. After this first step is completed, I will tell you how to do the second step."

Zhao Lei's trick aroused the interest of several counselors present, and Guo Jia immediately asked with a smile: "My lord, what kind of trick are you trying to sell?"

Zhao Lei rolled his eyes at Guo Jia, and said sarcastically, "Idiot, you said it was a joke, how could I tell you that I will punish you not to drink for a day."

"Why?" Guo Jia said innocently, causing everyone to laugh.

"Okay, everyone, do as I said. After three days, we will implement the first step." Zhao Lei laughed. ,

Three days later, in the early morning, the thick fog arrived on time as Guo Jia said, and the fog was so thick that it was only within five steps to see what was in front of him, and the visibility was very low.

At this time, following Zhao Lei's order, four thousand Yangzhou troops held scarecrows, divided into four teams, and set off from the battalion to the four gates of Lujiang City. When they were about to reach the enemy camp, Zhao Lei ordered to immediately Beat the drums and shout, but don't approach the enemy's camp, but let the army stay where it is.After the Yellow Turban Army in the enemy army heard that the Yangzhou soldiers were coming to attack, they quickly assembled their troops. Due to the heavy fog, the Yellow Turban Army of the Fourth Battalion could not see the whereabouts of the Yangzhou Army, so the archers all loomed outside the camp. Yangzhou soldiers fired indiscriminately.At this time, Zhao Lei immediately asked all the soldiers to hide behind the scarecrow, only to hear arrows raining down on the scarecrow like ants. After a while, the scarecrow was shot into a hedgehog.Zhao Yun looked at the scarecrow in front of him, and said to Zhao Lei with lingering fear, "Fortunately, brother Gao Ming prepared this thing in advance, otherwise we would be shot into hedgehogs."

After hearing Zhao Yun's words, Zhao Lei smiled and said, "Zilong, this scarecrow is not just for our army's protection. If I want the troops to resist the enemy's bows and arrows, why bother making a scarecrow? Can't I just use a shield? "

"What else can it be used for?" Zhao Yun asked strangely.

Zhao Lei ignored Zhao Yun's words, but said to the military commander: "The whole army shouts loudly, but don't march, let the enemy think that we are still planning to attack!" After a while, Zhao Lei's order was quickly Along with Zhao Lei's north gate, the Yangzhou army of the other three gates also continued to wave their flags and shouts in the thick fog, but they just didn't enter the army and kept a certain distance from the camp of the Yellow Turban Army.

Two hours later, the sky began to brighten. At this time, Zhao Lei ordered the troops to retreat quickly, and moved the scarecrow back to the camp before the fog cleared.

When the day was completely bright, there was no sign of a Yangzhou soldier at the gate of the Yellow Turban Army barracks.Just when the Yellow Turban Army was wondering why so many arrows were shot but there was no body of a Yangzhou Army soldier, the Yangzhou Army camp was pulling the arrows off the scarecrow one by one. Ten arrows, Zhao Lei sent a total of 4000 people, that is 20 arrows.

"My lord turned out to be a thief, that's why I made so many scarecrows." Guo Jia joked at this time.

Zhao Lei rolled his eyes at Guo Jia, but thought happily in his heart: Zhuge Liang borrowed arrows from a grass boat, today I, Zhao Lei, also borrow arrows from a grass man.

At this time, Jia Xu asked, "Master, why do you want so many arrows from the enemy army?"

Zhao Lei smiled and said to everyone: "These bows and arrows are useful for our army to implement the second step of the plan. Now we need more arrows. Tomorrow and the day after tomorrow will be foggy, and we will still implement today's plan , It's just that this scene needs to be played to a full extent, and the distance between us and the enemy's camp has to be gradually approached. So everyone must be careful when the time comes, and bring a few more scarecrows just in case, so as not to get hurt!"

"No! This subordinate obeys the orders," said the crowd.
