Chapter 154 If They Don't Attack, Then It's Our Turn to Attack
At night, Su Yueqing sat in front of the window, looking up at the cold moon. She was going to kill someone again tomorrow.
It’s so annoying, war is really annoying.
In the early morning, before it gets bright, the outside starts to get busy.
"Qingqing, the Dongli army is coming to attack the city again." Jun Yuansheng knocked on the door.
Su Yueqing put on her clothes slowly and opened the door. "Don't panic, we will proceed according to the plan."
Jun Yuansheng nodded and rushed to the city gate with Su Yueqing.
At the city gate, Jiang Biechen and Mu Chi were already in their positions, ready to take action at any time.
At the city gate, Lu Jingchuan had already organized his troops and was ready to go.
Su Yueqing went up to the city gate first, overlooking the Dongli army in front of him with a serious expression.
"City Lord Lu, everything goes according to plan." Su Yueqing looked at Lu Jingchuan and said.
Lu Jingchuan nodded and said, "General Su, rest assured. I will definitely guard the city and cover you in battle."
"Thank you for your hard work." Su Yueqing said, then went down the city gate and prepared to meet the enemy.
At this time, inside the city gate, Jiang Biechen and Jun Yuansheng had split their troops into two groups, each leading a team.
Because Jun Yuansheng has a special identity, he wears a mask to cover his face.
Su Yueqing walked to her own team and mounted her horse.
Su Yueqing caught a glimpse of the bearded man who came out of Jinling Valley in her team. He was grinning at her with a simple and sincere look.
After laughing back, Su Yueqing jumped on the horse and looked towards the city gate.
"Open the city gate!" Su Yueqing shouted loudly, her voice seemed to penetrate the city gate, clear and ethereal.
At Su Yueqing's order, the soldiers on both sides of the city gate unfastened the gate posts and slowly opened the city gate.
Seeing that the city gate was about to be opened, Su Yueqing and the other two made slight adjustments to their team and retreated to a place where people outside the city could not see them.
At this time, the passage in the city gate was empty and there was nothing.
Looking from outside the city, the gates of Dingzhou were wide open and there was no one in the city.
Looking at the city gate slowly opening, Han Sui was confused again.
He now had no idea what these Bei Ming people were going to do.
Are we going to use yesterday’s trick again?
Open the city gate to lure them in, and then annihilate them all at once?
This was Han Sui’s first thought.
Although the city gates were wide open and unobstructed, he did not dare to lead his army in easily.
"General, now that the city gates are wide open, should we attack the city?" asked the soldier beside Han Sui.
Han Sui frowned, looked at the city gate, then looked up at the Beiming soldiers who were on high alert on the city wall, and fell into deep thought.
The original plan was to capture Dingzhou City, advance eastward, then capture Guzhou City, join forces with the prince's army, attack Xiao Mochen from both sides, and completely defeat the Beiming army.
But who would have thought that the soldiers defending Dingzhou City did not fight according to common sense.
Now he can no longer distinguish between truth and falsehood.
The news he received was that there were more than 20,000 soldiers and horses in Dingzhou City, and they were short of food and fodder.
Therefore, as long as the attack is strong, Dingzhou City will be captured within half a month.
Han Sui thought about it and realized that they had come to Dingzhou City after going through so much hardship. No matter what, they must capture Dingzhou City.
Otherwise, even if I go back, I won't be able to face His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.
"Pass the order down to continue attacking the city, but do not rush into the city rashly to prevent a trap." Han Sui said.
This battle made him very confused.
I have absolutely no idea what the other party is going to do.
"Yes!"
After receiving the order, the Dongli army rushed towards the city wall of Dingzhou, set up the ladders again, and threw down the ropes...
Lu Jingchuan still faced the enemy in an orderly manner and with ease.
The war continued for a while, and Lu Jingchuan sent a signal to Su Yueqing and others at the city gate.
Seeing the signal sent by Lu Jingchuan, Su Yueqing nodded, then raised the flag and shouted loudly: "Soldiers, follow me out of the city to meet the enemy!"
As the red flag in Su Yueqing's hand fluttered in the wind, waves of killing shouts broke through the sky.
The Dongli army outside the city only vaguely heard the sound of killing. When they reacted, Su Yueqing had already led the army out of the city, with the sound of horse hooves.
"kill!"
The loud sound of killing was heard again, this time, clear and bright.
The Dongli soldiers who were still attacking the city outside were unable to split themselves into two groups and were caught off guard by Su Yueqing and others, and fell to the ground one after another.
Outside the city gate, there were constant sounds of swords and blood splattering in the air.
In the blink of an eye, groups of people had fallen on the originally empty ground.
Su Yueqing led the cavalry and cooperated with Jiang Biechen and Jun Yuansheng to break through from three sides, catching the Dongli army off guard.
Han Sui looked coldly at the three teams wandering in the crowd, murderous intent flashed in his eyes, and said: "Pass the order down, encircle and destroy these three Beiming teams!"
The other side only has a few thousand people, yet they dare to come out to meet the enemy so rashly. Do they really think that his tens of thousands of troops are just decorations?
Upon hearing the commander's order, the Dongli army changed direction. The soldiers who were originally planning to attack the city rushed towards where Su Yueqing and the other two were, trying to form an encirclement to surround them.
On the city wall, Lu Jingchuan saw that the enemy was no longer attacking the city and was heading towards Su Yueqing. He immediately gave orders for the archers to prepare and shoot the enemy.
Arrows rained down from the city walls like rain.
Outside the city, Su Yueqing noticed the other party's actions, raised the white flag, and shouted loudly: "Return to the city!"
In an instant, the soldiers stopped fighting, found the right time, and rode back to the city without any hesitation.
Because of their quick actions, Su Yueqing had already led his soldiers back to the city before the Dongli army arrived to surround them.
As the saying goes, we come and go in a hurry.
The Dongli army finally gathered at Su Yueqing's original position, only to find that the other party had already withdrawn back to the city.
For a moment, the Dongli soldiers looked at each other in bewilderment. Why did they feel like they were being made a fool of?
While they were still confused, arrows from the city wall fell again, heading straight for their vital points.
Because they had not received any orders, the soldiers could not advance or retreat, and could only watch their comrades fall to the ground after being shot by arrows.
Han Sui's face looked grim and he clenched his hands tightly. It was clear that the other party was playing tricks on him!
Looking at the battle situation ahead, Han Sui took a deep breath and said, "Withdraw!"
After receiving the order, the Dongli army, which was originally exposed outside the city, immediately rushed in the direction they came from.
Because there were so many people and they were in a hurry to get back, many stampedes occurred.
Su Yueqing stood on the city wall, looking at the Dongli army withdrawing again, a triumphant smile on her face.
Do it all at once, second time tired, third time exhausted.
The Dongli army attacked the city with great force, but each time they retreated in disgrace, and their morale was crushed.
If this continues, I'm afraid the military morale will be unstable.
By then, it will be the best time for a decisive battle.
"General Su, Dongli has withdrawn its troops again." Lu Jingchuan said as he looked at the departing Dongli army, his heart and eyes full of admiration for Su Yueqing.
Now, in his mind, Su Yueqing can be regarded as a military genius.
Although the tactics are not so aboveboard, they are unconventional and always catch the opponent by surprise, making it difficult for the opponent to distinguish the truth from the false and to see the opponent's intentions.
He admitted that he was too conservative and had too much prejudice against women.
"What should we do next?" Lu Jingchuan asked again: "I think Dongli will take a few days off and will not attack the city again."
Faced with such a situation and the difficulty of attacking the city, if he were General Dongli, he would choose to let the army rest on the spot.
Waiting for the enemy to gain advantage is also a tactic of attacking the city.
Su Yueqing raised the corners of her lips, "If they don't launch an attack, then it will be our turn to launch an attack."
Turn defense into offense and defeat the enemy in one fell swoop.
