Back in the room, Shen Luoyan told Miaoyin about the current situation, and Miaoyin couldn't help but curse Wei Wenzhong, the crazy bastard.
"Okay, the matter is done. There's no point in scolding me. It will only make me angry."
Yun Zheng waved his hand, "If you want to blame someone, blame it on our own carelessness!"
In fact, he should have been on guard when Wei Wenzhong told Wei Shuo to go back to Jing'an Guard.
But unfortunately, at that time he still thought that Wei Wenzhong just didn't want Wei Shuo to have a direct conflict with him, so he drove Wei Shuo back to Jing'an Guard.
Thinking about it now, I realized that Wei Wenzhong was already holding it in at that time.
Later, Jiayao spread the false news that she and Bambu were poisoned to death, successfully paralyzing him.
I have to say that Jiayao played this move really well.
She used Zhang Liu, whom she exchanged for her, to paralyze him in return.
It's a pity that he is still there feeling smug.
...
...
As a result, others had already woven a big net to cover them.
"So what do we do now?"
Miaoyin frowned and said, "It's not a solution to be trapped like this forever!"
“No rush!”
Yun Zheng waved his hand and said, "The Beihuan army is definitely much larger than ours. If they want to besiege us, they will have to consume more food and grass! We still have so many war horses. If it doesn't work, we can kill the war horses to replenish the military rations! In the end, we will not end up well, and they won't be able to take advantage of us too much!"
"You want to kill the warhorse too?"
Miaoyin didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and said, "If the warhorse could talk, it would definitely say: Who did I offend?"
"You don't have to kill him. Let's see the situation first!"
Yun Zheng said calmly: "Our food and grass can only last for a few days. Before that, we still have a chance to defeat the enemy! Okay, forget about it, and go to sleep first! The sky won't fall yet!"
There is basically no point in thinking of countermeasures now.
Let’s wait until we understand Beihuan’s general layout!
Go to bed first!
Only if you sleep well can you have the energy to think about strategies to defeat the enemy!
Looking at Yun Zheng curled up in the quilt, Chen Luoyan and Miaoyin couldn't help but look at each other.
Are you really sleeping?
Can he sleep in this situation?
Yun Zheng really couldn't sleep.
Although he knew that it was useless to think more now, his mind still couldn't help but think about it.
Even though he tried hard to force himself not to think about it, he couldn't help but think about it.
In the end, Yun Zheng simply gave up.
Whatever!
When you think about it, you will feel sleepy and fall asleep naturally.
So Yun Zheng closed his eyes and began to think.
In the end, he didn't know how he fell asleep.
In the morning, Yun Zheng was awakened by Chen Luoyan.
"Go to the top of the city and take a look!"
Chen Luoyan said: "You guessed right, the Beihuan army from Weibian and Qingbian are approaching! Our scouts discovered their traces early in the morning, and they are now setting up camp about fifteen miles away from us..."
Yun Zheng quickly put on his clothes with the help of Shen Luoyan, and without even eating, he rushed to the top of the city.
At this moment, many generals in the city, led by Dugu Ce, came to the top of the city to check the enemy's deployment.
Dugu Ce looked very bad, probably because he had not slept all night.
Seeing Yun Zheng coming, Qin Qihu immediately gave Yun Zheng a thumbs up and said, "Brother, it's a good thing you stopped us last night. If we had tried to break through last night, we would have been attacked from three sides."
The rest of the people followed suit.
If Yun Zheng hadn't stopped them last night, they would have probably organized troops to break out overnight in such a hurry.
If you think about it carefully, many people feel secretly ashamed in their hearts.
Although they dare not say that they are experienced in battle, they have all been leading troops for a long time.
When an emergency occurred, they were not as calm as Yun Zheng, who had just arrived in Shuobei from the Imperial City.
It was thanks to Yun Zheng's reminder that he escaped the disaster.
Yun Zheng smiled casually and asked Dugu Ce, "How many Beihuan troops are there here?"
"Based on my experience, the number is estimated to be no less than 80,000!" Dugu Ce said, "The terrain at the north gate is open. If they want to besiege us, they will have to prepare at least double the number of troops."
"Yeah, that makes sense!" Yun Zheng nodded slightly and asked, "What about the Beiyuan Shoal?"
Dugu Ce replied: "The troops on the Beiyuan shallows are mostly infantrymen, with a number of no less than 30,000. They are probably only seven or eight miles away from the edge of the hill. They have already started digging the ground and building a defense line early in the morning..."
Digging the earth to build a defense line?
Horse trap!
Isn't it obvious that they are trying to guard against their cavalry charges and completely encircle them?
It seems that my guess was correct.
Bei Huan did not want to pay a huge price to force a siege on the city, so he wanted to trap them to death with the simplest method.
When their food and supplies ran out, they would either starve to death or have no choice but to break out.
However, Bei Huan was obviously overthinking it.
Beihuan knew to kill war horses to replenish military rations, don’t they know how to do that?
Although I am reluctant to part with those war horses, human life is more important than the lives of war horses.
If Bei Huan doesn't attack, then let's just wait and see!
Next, they had plenty of time to think about how to defeat the enemy.
Yun Zheng snorted in his heart and asked again: "General Dugu, do you think Wei Wenzhong will send people to attack the enemy troops near the shallows near the hillside?"
"this……"
Dugu Ce frowned slightly, then smiled bitterly: "I don't know now..."
"I guess he won't!"
Yun Zheng smiled and said, "Wei Wenzhong probably used the excuse of insufficient troops to sit back and do nothing. Instead, he sent someone to send a letter to the imperial city, asking my father to send reinforcements..."
Reinforcements? That's easy to say!
It takes time to gather and march reinforcements!
Moreover, the reinforcements will definitely be mainly infantry.
Except for Shuobei, there were not many cavalry in other places of Dagan.
With the infantry's marching speed, it would take at least a month for support to arrive!
By the time the reinforcements arrive, even if they kill all the war horses to replenish their rations, they will probably have been eaten up!
I have to say that Wei Wenzhong is not good at fighting, but he is good at playing these conspiracies and tricks to harm people!
Dugu Ce sighed softly and said with a wry smile: "Maybe! Anyway, it's very simple for us to verify. If Wei Wenzhong doesn't send people to attack the Northern Huan army in front of us within five days, we can basically give up hope..."
Beiyuan Shoal is not far from Suining Wei and Jing'an Wei.
If more troops are transferred, five days will be enough to organize a large-scale attack!
There is plenty of time, it just depends on whether Wei Wenzhong has the intention to do so.
"Okay, stop looking!"
Yun Zheng smiled faintly, "Tell everyone to cook and take turns to eat later. Don't let Beihuan attack while we are eating!"
"good!"
Dugu Ce nodded slightly, and looked at Yun Zheng with interest again, "Your Highness doesn't seem to be worried at all?"
"There's no point in worrying!"
Yun Zheng smiled indifferently, "The best thing to do is to fill your stomach first!"
Dugu Ce was surprised and even more suspicious.
At this moment, a group of cavalry suddenly rushed over from a distance.
A rough estimate is that there should be about a hundred people.
Soon, the cavalry arrived three or four miles away from them.
Even a crossbow can't reach this distance!
Besides, they don’t have any crossbows now.
Although Yun Zheng couldn't see the faces of the team members clearly at such a long distance, he still recognized Jia Yao among them.
Sure enough, this woman was not poisoned to death!
Everything is a trap!
"Shameless Yun Zheng, get out here!"
From a long distance, Jia Yao roared angrily.
As if they were afraid that they were too far away and couldn't hear what Jia Yao said clearly, the cavalrymen around Jia Yao roared in unison.
"Shameless Yun Zheng, get out here!"
"Shameless..."
Everyone was shouting one after another. With more than a hundred people gathered together, it was hard for Yun Zheng not to hear them...
