Chapter 96
When Chen Ping heard Wei Bao say this, he was shocked and thought that he had seen through the current situation. He immediately stepped forward and explained: "Your Majesty, you should not let the Qin army enter the city and fight with the Chu army. We will reap the benefits of the fisherman."
"I don't mean this, but the Dongcheng army has so many troops. What should I do with the other three sects?" Wei Bao said in a daze.
Hearing this, Chen Ping was speechless. It turned out that Wei Bao was worried about such a thing. He thought it was the secret of Qin's siege, so he hurriedly explained: "Your Majesty, the other three sects were blocked with huge rocks. The Chu army would never leave the city if it did not retreat!"
"Okay, okay, I'm so worried." Wei Bao said, and stood up and walked towards the back hall.
Seeing Wei Bao leave, Kuai Che walked to Chen Ping calmly, "Sir, if Xiang comes to attack the city tonight, it will be difficult to defend."
"The enclosure comes to attack during the day, fails and returns. If you take advantage of the situation and come back in the evening, Daliang will definitely fail. Therefore, there is a plan to solve this worry." Chen Ping said mysteriously.
"Please make it clear, sir." Kuai Che asked in a low voice, as if he was thinking.
Chen Ping said a few words and heard Kuai Che’s sweating in his eyebrows, “I’m afraid this is inappropriate. It’s extremely dangerous, extremely dangerous!”
In fact, it was not a good idea. It was to ask Kuai Che to open the west gate and take two thousand soldiers out, ignite the fire into the city, put out the fire out of the city, and go back and forth several times, making great contributions. In this way, it definitely did not dare to act rashly.
Chen Ping looked kind, "This is a small matter. As the saying goes, one prospers and one loss will bring you all. If your two thousand soldiers are noticed, we will not be safe and sound. How can we worry?"
Hearing Chen Ping say this, Kuai Che was not easy to refute. It was already here, so he had to take risks. In the You hour, Kuai Che quietly opened the west gate and led two thousand soldiers out of the city. Chen Ping set fire to the towers of each city.
In the Chu army camp, it was already nightfall after Xiang Ta sorted out his army. Looking at the lonely stars looming in the sky, Xiang Ta sighed unconsciously: "It is not easy to hurt the enemy by one thousand, and it is difficult to attack the city!"
At this time, the attendant next to him looked firm and he exhorted loudly: "Report to General, although the Wei army has not suffered many casualties for half a day of attack, many equipment for defending the city have been lost. Why not make a decision tonight!"
Xiang Ta looked puzzled and just paced back and forth in the camp, "Daliang City is indestructible. Although Wei Bao is a mediocre person, Chen Ping under him has many good plans and is difficult to deal with."
"General, even if he has thousands of tricks, his soldiers are not enough and he will be useless. I hope the general will make a decision so as not to miss the opportunity to fight." The attendant comforted him repeatedly.
Xiang also felt it was reasonable and nodded immediately, "Since that's the case, then attack the city by the middle of the day, unexpectedly!" After saying that, he immediately ordered his troops and prepared to attack the city from the three gates behind.
Kuai Che had already led his soldiers to the direction of Quyu, and walked ten miles away. Then each of them brought a scarecrow with a torch tied on it. Two thousand soldiers looked at the stars, and there were five or six thousand people, and they would go back and forth.
There were four trips from You to Hai. Chen Ping in the city was helpless when he saw this. After all, he knew that this was not enough. He had to let Xiang see it, so he did not stop Kuai Che, but slowed down.
In the first half of the hour, it was about 11 o'clock in the evening. Xiangta wanted to ask for troops, but suddenly a soldier came from the direction of Daliang City, which were the scouts he sent out.
Seeing this, Xiang Ta got off the horse hurriedly and frowned, "Why are you so panicked? Could it be that there is any change in Daliang City?"
The soldier looked frightened and said tremblingly: "Report to General, Daliang City has changed. The candles in the city are brightly lit and the east gate is wide open. Every half hour, there is a wave of people like the city, about five or six thousand people. Since the villain investigated, soldiers have entered the city four times. Please ask the general to decide."
"This is true, four waves of men and 20,000 soldiers? Where did the reinforcements come from the Wei State?" Xiang Ta looked a little confused in his words.
"There is a Qin minister Chen Ping in the city of Wei. I believe this person learned that we were siegeing the city and secretly notified Qin to send reinforcements. It is better to retreat and make a decision tomorrow. What do the general think?" The attendant behind him stepped forward and said.
After hearing this, Xiang Ta felt a little unhappy and said that it was him who was raiding, and now he was also who wanted to stick to it, and he was somewhat willing to make plans and never make decisions.
"It is really abominable that you show off your wisdom again and again. It is coming. The soldiers are not sleeping all night, and they are in a mess. Tomorrow, it is even more joking. I hope Deputy General Liu will give an explanation." Xiang Ta's words were peaceful, but he had long wanted to kill him.
The attendant looked around and hurriedly said, "Report to the general, the military affairs are changing rapidly. How can we make a journey to the dawn? There are no reinforcements in Daliang, so we can naturally attack. Now that reinforcements are coming, I don't know how many enemy generals are. We should take a step back and hold on, and there is no fault. I don't know what explanation the general needs?"
"Hmph! What's the explanation? It's a crime to disrupt the morale of the army and affect the revision of the soldiers! The person who came dragged Deputy General Liu out and killed him!" Xiang Ta said firmly.
"General, don't kill me! I am the supervisor of the army, I have a handwritten order!" Deputy General Liu shouted loudly from behind.
Xiang Ta was a little confused. He was obviously a servant, but why did he suddenly become a military supervisor? He waved his hand and pulled him over again.
"You just said you are a military supervisor?"
"That's right, general, if you don't believe me, please look at someone's handwriting." Deputy General Liu said and handed over the token. Xiang Da glanced at him, very confused.
"Liu Jiao? I didn't expect it was the brother of the King of Han. Forget it, I'll take it down and imprison it first and hand it over to the King of Han in the future." Xiang Ta said without confidence.
Although Liu Bang and Xiang Yu were incompatible behind their backs, they were still brothers on the surface. Liu Jiao said that he was a military supervisor, and this matter must have been arranged by Xiang Liang. Killing Liu Jiao will only affect the relationship between Chu and Han, and temporarily imprison and wait for Xiang Liang to fall. In this way, this can also separate the matter from himself.
Liu Jiao next to him also breathed a sigh of relief, "Fortunately, my life is saved."
As soon as Liu Jiao was pulled down, the soldiers next to him came over, "Report to General, will you raid Daliang?"
Xiang Ta's face looked ugly and said disdainfully: "Daliang Chenggu, Qin has 20,000 troops. How can he compete with the Wei army? Return to the camp to defend!"
On the other hand, Chen Ping stood beside the railing in Daliang City, feeling very nervous. He had just heard that Xiang was sending troops. If he really attacked him, Daliang might not be protected.
At this time, Kuai Che and two thousand soldiers had no news. If they led their troops to escape, the situation would be gone. Just when Chen Ping was in trouble, the Wei soldiers hurried to summon the news.
Chen Ping immediately stepped down from the palace and asked without any etiquette: "Can things be accomplished?"
"Sir, Xiang has retreated and defended, and Daliang is free of worries!" Wei Zun said excitedly.
"It's finally done. Go outside the city to investigate Peng Yue. When will Li Mai and others arrive at Daliang? Don't miss the military opportunity!" Chen Ping pointed outside the city and said.
Wei Shu nodded and rushed out of the city immediately, not daring to delay any delay.
