The fighting continues.
A steady stream of officers and soldiers rushed forward, trying to reach the tower.
It¡¯s just the soldiers guarding the city tower, who are guarding extremely steadily. In addition, Xia Houhu also participated in the battle with a long iron stick. He led his soldiers back and forth quickly to fight, killing many officers and soldiers who had reached the tower.
The entire city was fortified.
Under such a situation, although the officers and soldiers attacked fiercely, they could not pose a threat to Linzi at all.
This scene fell in the eyes of Cheng Mao outside the city.
Cheng Mao frowned.
Something is wrong!
There is something wrong with the bandit soldiers today. The defense is extremely stable and well organized, without any panic at all.
Especially, Xia Houhu appeared today. If Lu Shengqi had always had people like Xiahou Hu under his command, with Xiahou Hu's strength, Lu Shengqi should have sent Xiahou Hu to fight as early as possible when he encountered Cheng Mao's provocation.
But it was only now that Xia Houhu came. It was obvious that he just came.
Are reinforcements coming?
Did Lu Shengqi find reinforcements?
Cheng Mao kept thinking in his heart, and his heart sank to the bottom. When attacking Lu Shengqi this time, he has clearly trapped Lu Shengqi here. As long as there are another ten days and a half, Linzi City will be destroyed without attack.
By then, Cheng Mao can easily kill Lu Shengqi and resolve the chaos in Qingzhou.
This is an excellent opportunity.
But today¡¯s situation has made all his previous efforts fall short.
All efforts were in vain.
The plan was even disrupted.
Liu Xun didn't care about this. He stood next to Lu Shengqi and said: "Commander, our eight thousand elites do not have an absolute advantage. In my opinion, we will send six thousand more elites up."
"No, the troops are withdrawing."
Cheng Mao¡¯s eyes flashed and he ordered: ¡°Send the order to withdraw the troops.¡±
The messenger went to make arrangements immediately.
The clanging sound of gongs kept ringing. The soldiers who were attacking began to retreat one after another when they heard the sound of Ming Jin withdrawing his troops from behind.
The offensive was completely gone.
When Liu Xun saw this scene, he frowned and asked, "Commander, why do you want to withdraw your troops?"
Cheng Mao said: "Lu Shengqi obviously has reinforcements, let's evacuate first."
He is extremely decisive.
And Cheng Mao is also very steady in doing things.
At the moment, although Lu Shengqi has many problems, Cheng Mao is not radical or impatient.
At the moment, everything is based on caution.
The soldiers retreated one by one, and Cheng Mao immediately mobilized his troops to retreat.
On the tower of Linzi City, all the soldiers cheered and shouted victory. Every soldier is excited and high-spirited. Because in this battle, they fought openly and openly with the officers and soldiers, and truly won the victory.
Lu Shengqi ordered people to count the losses, and then took Wang Qi, Zhu Yumin and He Peiqi back to the room above the city tower.
The host and guest took their seats.
Lu Shengqi looked at Wang Qi with a slightly excited expression and said thanks: "Mr. Wang, today's battle is all thanks to Xia Houhu and Mr. Wang's calm command."
"During this period of fighting with Cheng Mao, we have been suppressed and beaten by Cheng Mao."
"Everyone was holding a breath in their hearts. Today, the evil spirit that had been stuck in their hearts was finally released. The fighting spirit of the soldiers has also been completely restored."
Lu Shengqi said: "All this is thanks to Mr. Wang."
Wang Qidao: "Commander, the current victory is just the beginning. Today's battle has temporarily reversed the fighting spirit of the soldiers. Next, we must mobilize officers and soldiers to put Cheng Mao into trouble and change the outcome of this battle. Defeat Cheng Mao , Qingzhou¡¯s army has finally gained a firm foothold.¡±
Lu Shengqi said: "What Mr. Wang said is true."
After a pause, Lu Shengqi asked: "Mr. Wang, when will you lead your troops out of the city?"
Wang Qi said: "Today, after dark, I will quietly lead my troops out of the city. It is easy to be discovered if you leave the city in broad daylight. The attack tonight will be the real decisive battle."
Lu Shengqi said: "Thank you Mr. Wang for your hard work."
Wang Qi shook his head and said: "Such a thing is not hard. What's more, everything I do is for the ideal in my heart, to overthrow the Zhou Dynasty and restore order."
There was a hint of expectation in Lu Shengqi's eyes, and he nodded and said: "In order to overthrow the Great Zhou Dynasty."
Wang Qi changed the topic and said: "Commander, today during the day, the commander has three things to do. These things must be arranged immediately, otherwise it will easily cause trouble."
Lu Shengqi asked: "What about those three things?"
Wang Qi replied: "Although Linzi City is now under the control of the general, are there uncontrollable forces in the city, such as the powerful families in the city, and the hidden forces in the city?"
"These people are all dangerous. Therefore, the first thing the commander-in-chief must do is to ensure the stability of Linzi."
"Cheng Mao constantly suppressed the military morale of the commander-in-chief through provocation."
"Ultimately, the morale of the commander-in-chief will collapse. This plan will definitely not work for Cheng Mao at the moment. So I conclude that Cheng Mao will most likely change his strategy and no longer come to fight."
"It is very possible that they chose to incite people to cause disturbance and trouble in the city."
Wang Qi's eyes were sharp and he said: "Even if someone submits to the imperial court and takes the initiative to open the door to the imperial court, how will the commander-in-chief resist? So at the moment, the first thing the commander-in-chief must do is to stabilize the situation in the city."
"Wonderful, wonderful!"
Lu Shengqi nodded and said: "Mr. Wang is right. This matter is indeed like this. I will arrange it properly."
Wang Qi continued: "The second thing is to arrange for people to go out to deliver the message, summon soldiers and horses from all parties to meet at Laizi, and encircle Chengmao. As far as I know, all parts of Qingzhou, and all local counties and counties, are self-organized." It has formed a system and has never sent troops."
"It is up to the commander-in-chief to resist Cheng Mao now."
"Resisting the officers and soldiers of the imperial court is not the responsibility of the commander-in-chief alone, but the responsibility of everyone. The simplest reason is that if even the commander-in-chief cannot stop them, who can survive alone?"
"So now, sent out sentries to urge all parties to send troops."
Wang Qi said: "As long as we have a certain amount of troops and gather in Linzi, we can fight Cheng Mao decisively."
Lu Shengqi stroked his beard and said: "Mr. Wang is right. Before I faced the imperial army, I thought that I was strong and that each place had its own troops. When I saw the government's army coming, they would come on their own. To this day , none of them will come. Now we must change our approach and let all places come to help me attack Cheng Mao."
Wang Qi nodded and continued: "Third, prepare for the next establishment of the country. As the saying goes, if the name is not correct, the words will not be correct, because the commander-in-chief is in Qingzhou. Although he is rebelling against the imperial court, there is no regulation, and people from all over the country are not Didn¡¯t get enfeoffment.¡±
"So, many people are still reluctant and have a grudge in their hearts."
"The commander-in-chief has proclaimed himself emperor, and the people below should give him the rewards and commendations he deserves. Only in this way will everyone benefit and continue to support the commander-in-chief."
"This is the way to long-term peace and stability."
Wang Qi said: "As long as they can withstand the siege of the imperial court, the commander-in-chief can consider establishing a country on his own. If he continues to fail to stand on his own, the people will be dispersed and each will be independent. It is impossible to reverse the situation. Only by establishing a country and proclaiming himself emperor can we Unite people.¡±
Lu Shengqi¡¯s eyes were bright.
There is expectation in the eyes.
Being proclaimed emperor is what he dreams of.
Zhu Yumin also looked excited and said: "The commander-in-chief, I also agree with Mr. Wang's analysis."
He Peiqi said: "The commander-in-chief and the humble one also seconded the proposal. Because Mr. Wang's analysis is so right. Why do we have an uprising in Qingzhou now, which seems to be huge but has no combat effectiveness? It is because we have no cohesion. Only the commander-in-chief can Only by proclaiming yourself emperor can everyone think in one place and work hard in one place."
Lu Shengqi nodded and said: "I understand Mr. Wang's suggestion. This matter can be prepared in advance. But at the moment, we still have to consider defeating Cheng Mao first. Once Cheng Mao is defeated, we will arrange this matter."
Wang Qidao: "The great commander is wise!"
In fact, it was not difficult for Wang Qi to help Lu Shengqi defeat Cheng Mao. The reason why I say so much is to gain Lu Shengqi's trust.
In the end, Lu Shengqi was allowed to proclaim himself emperor.
This is the key.
Only by Lu Shengqi proclaiming himself emperor can the world begin to rebel against Zhou.
Wang Qi had already said what needed to be said, and said without further words: "Commander, I have already said what needs to be said, and now you are sending me the best troops. I need to get used to it, and then I can take action at night."
Lu Shengqi said: "I will make arrangements for you personally."
Wang Qidao: "Thank you, Commander-in-Chief."
Lu Shengqi took Wang Qi out of the room, got off the tower, and went to the military camp in the city. He wanted to personally select three thousand elites for Wang Qi to facilitate Wang Qi's actions. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com)Go to camp.
