Chapter 1861 The Son of Weather (Part 2)
Chapter 1859: The Son of Weather (Part 2)
Cheng Bushi led the army under his command. After a day of rapid march, he finally rushed back to Tuyin City, but he neither entered nor attacked the city.
As Zhuge Liang expected, Cheng Buzhi, who had realized that he had been trapped, naturally did not dare to enter the city easily. After all, who knows whether the county soldiers in the city will surrender?
As for siege?
Cheng Bushi did not carry siege equipment, and he didn’t even have a ladder, so how could he siege the city?
"General, our spies have discovered that there are no Qin troops around the city, but there are a large number of traces of Qin troops."
"Sure enough, Tuyin City has fallen. Now the Qin army has set up an ambush in the city, waiting for our army to come to us on its own initiative."
After saying that, Cheng Buzhi said with pain: "Your Majesty, I will let you down."
"General, judging from the traces, the number of Qin troops is not large, and we still have the chance to retake Tuyin City."
Hearing this, a glimmer of hope flashed in Cheng Bushi''s eyes and said in a deep voice: "Build a ladder immediately. I will take advantage of the fact that the Qin army has not yet established a stable foothold and regain Tuyin City."
"No."
With Cheng Buzhi''s order, the Han army immediately divided into two parts, surrounded the city, and another part used local materials to build a ladder, and immediately attacked the city after the ladder was built.
Tuyin City, above the city tower.
Looking at the Han army besieged on all sides outside the city, Long Qi began to feel extremely uneasy, but when he saw Zhuge Liang''s calm look, the uneasiness gradually disappeared.
"Military advisor, we only have 3,500 men, but Cheng Bushi has 18,000 troops. After the ladder of the 10,000 Han army is built and the city is full of all efforts, it will be difficult to defend Tuyin City with just such a small amount of manpower." Long Qi said.
Zhuge Liang glanced at Long Qi and smiled faintly, "General Long Qi, just say whatever you have."
"This is what you said, so let''s just say it. Military advisor, if you have the next move, use it quickly. If you don''t use it, it''s too late."
After hearing Long Qi''s words, Zhuge Liang looked up at the sun blocked by the clouds and said, "You will know soon."
Building a cloud ladder is not complicated. Cheng Buzhin''s life has hundreds of people cut wood and used it to make more than a dozen simple cloud ladders. Although they cannot attack four walls at the same time, it is still OK to attack only one wall.
"Send the order and concentrate your troops to attack the North Gate, and the other three gates are surrounded..."
Before he finished speaking, Cheng Bushi opened his mouth wide.
It was obviously sunny not long ago, but now it is covered with dark clouds and raindrops are constantly falling from the sky.
This is the rhythm of heavy rain.
"General, it''s not good. It''s going to rain. Come and camp, otherwise the soldiers will not even have a shelter from the rain."
"But…"
Cheng Buzhi suddenly looked entangled. He finally made a ladder. Before he could use it, it suddenly started to rain?
It’s really a shame.
Cheng Bushi also knew that it would not be so easy to recapture Tuyin City with more than a dozen ladders, and it would be even more difficult to attack the city in the rain. Once the army stayed in the rain for a long time, it would affect the morale of the entire army.
"Forget it, this should be a shower, it will pass soon. Let''s attack the city after the rain." Cheng Buzhi ordered helplessly.
"No."
Long Qi was shocked and surprised when he saw the Han army that was originally preparing to attack the city, but he set up camp because it was about to rain.
It’s a coincidence that this rain came too, right?
Long Qi looked at Zhuge Liang on the side and asked, "Military advisor, you knew it would rain for a long time, right?"
Zhuge Liang smiled indifferently and did not answer, but when he saw this expression, Long Qi knew that he must have expected it in advance.
Didi…
At the beginning, it was just a light rain, but it was getting heavier and heavier, gradually forming a downpour.
Cheng Bushi, who had retreated into the camp, felt relieved when he saw that the rain had actually dropped so heavily.
Fortunately, I didn''t attack the city in the rain, otherwise this rain alone would have weakened the combat effectiveness of the Han army by 50%.
"General, is this rain really a shower? Why do you feel it''s getting heavier and heavier?"
"Of course, I have been in Youbeiping for many years. I am not in charge of the local climate, but I am also very familiar with it. Nowadays, there are more rains in Youbeiping, and it will be over soon."
Cheng Buzhi said confidently, but he was slapped in the face soon and was beaten up.
The next day, the rain was still falling. Although it became a little lighter, it still did not stop. It can be seen that this was not a shower at all.
"No, why is this happening?"
Cheng Buzhi murmured to himself, but no one would answer for him.
"Come, send orders to attack the city." Cheng Buzhi said in a deep voice.
"General, are we really going to attack the city in the rain? This may be difficult."
"If you don''t attack the city, if the main force of the Qin army arrives, you will never have the chance to retake Tuyin City." Cheng Buzhi said.
"This...promise."
Cheng Bushi finally made a decision and decided to attack the city in the rain, but before the army had left the camp, they received two bolts of the blue.
"Report to the general, the Liao army marched in the rain, less than twenty miles away from Tuyin City."
"Report... Tens of thousands of Qin troops were found fifteen miles away."
"What?"
Cheng Buzhi widened his eyes, and then he was dizzy all around. If he hadn''t been held by the deputy general, he would have fallen to the ground directly.
"General, general..."
Under the shouts of everyone, Cheng Bushi quickly woke up, and the first thing he said was: "Conspiracy, this is a conspiracy. Retreat, retreat to Yuyang County quickly, otherwise we will die without a place to bury."
In Tuyin City, Zhuge Liang was meeting with Li Hongzhang and Gongsun Xuanyuan''s envoy, Ye Qingmei, who both came to contact Zhuge Liang in the rain.
"Mr. Li, you have made great contributions this time. After the Battle of Hebei is over, the lord will definitely give you a reward. At that time, the worst time is probably the prefect of a county."
Although Zhuge Liang said this, he was secretly winking at Li Hongzhang. He was a little confused about Gongsun Xuanyuan''s thoughts and did not understand why he sent a woman to be the envoy?
Li Hongzhang saw what Zhuge Liang meant, so he indirectly reminded Zhuge Liang that Ye Qingmei was very important in the Liao army, but he must not neglect it.
Just as Zhuge Liang looked at Ye Qingmei, Ye Qingmei was also observing Zhuge Liang.
Zhuge Liang''s image is similar to that of Ye Qingmei''s impression. He is gentle and elegant, and very handsome.
"So handsome, no, Ye Qingmei, you are an envoy of the Liao army and represent the face of the Liao army. How can you be a fool at this time? But the young prime minister is really so handsome, even more handsome than his righteous brother."
Looking at Ye Qingmei with a foul-faced look on her face, Zhuge Liang couldn''t help but twitch the corners of his mouth.
This girl is really Ye Qingmei, a think tank in the Liao army?
"Military advisor, good news, Cheng doesn''t know how to retreat, and the direction of retreat is still..."
Long Qi suddenly broke in, but after seeing Li Hongzhang and Ye Qingmei, he immediately shut up and stopped talking.
"good."
Zhuge Liang was overjoyed and immediately prepared to walk out of the house to observe the astronomical phenomena, but the moment he walked out of the house.
[Dingdong, Zhuge Liang''s skill "Wolong" effect 5 is activated...]
It was pouring rain outside just now, but as Zhuge Liang walked out of the house, the rain became lighter and smaller until it stopped, and the sun was soon revealed.
Looking at Zhuge Liang bathed in the sun, Ye Qingmei couldn''t help but open her mouth wide.
She remembered an anime movie she had watched before traveling through time, and the heroine in the movie also had the ability to control the weather and turn rain into sunshine.
Is Zhuge Liang also the son of the weather?
As soon as he thought of this, Ye Qingmei became completely messy.
