Live as the emperor

Chapter 333

There are always many mountains in the south. Chen Guang, who lived in the north after crossing over, almost forgot that he was a southerner before crossing.In the capital city, apart from the plains, they are all stretches of hundreds of acres, and even if there are mountains, they are just small hills.And in the south, you basically don't see a flat area.So there is a reason why most of the capital is in the north - because the south simply cannot find enough flat land to build a palace city.

For example, Chen Guang is leading the army out now, and the hills are rolling up and down not far from the city.The march seemed very difficult.

"We are about to reach Twilight City. According to the news from the previous spies, the lord of this city is now a man named Gong Xinzhi, who was a loyal supporter of the former Marquis Wu. After Wu Hou died, he occupied Twilight City. After becoming the city lord, some people once heard him say that he would be incompatible with the imperial court." Wu Yong said to Chen Guang.He is now like an information filter. All news about the battlefield will be sent to him first, and then he will select the valuable part to convey to Chen Guang.

Chen Guang raised his head slightly, looked at the looming stone city wall halfway up the mountain, and said, "I'm at odds with the imperial court? I really don't know who gave him the courage to say such words. With his size, even if he is Give him ten times the strength, and he will not be an opponent of the court. Why is he so arrogant? Well, since he followed Marquis Wu, and now Marquis Wu is dead, he should not continue to live in this world Yes. Arrange to camp at the foot of the mountain, a little farther away from the col."

"Just camp?" Wu Yong was a little surprised. He raised his head to look at the sky. Although he said that it gets dark early in winter, it is obvious that it is not yet time to camp. He said, "We are going up the mountain soon. You can attack him to find out his reality."

Chen Guang immediately rolled his eyes at him and said: "Who said I won't attack? Camping and attacking do not conflict. And now it is only four or five miles away from his city, so it is just right to camp here."

Well, since Chen Guang said it so eloquently, Wu Yong didn't express his opinion anymore, he just chose to shut up and went down to give orders.

Chen Guang looked at the city in the distance, and said to himself; "There is no doubt that Gong Xinzhi knows everything about me in the city. It is impossible to raid his city. Maybe he is already prepared Well, the heaven and earth net, just wait for me to break into it, this is called asking you to enter the urn, so I won't be fooled."

In Twilight City, in the City Lord's Mansion, a servant reported to Gong Xinzhi; "Master City Lord, they have set up camp five miles away from us."

"Oh? It's so early, it's still lunch time, what are they camping for? Do they want to surround and not fight? That would be too stupid. If I don't go on his side, I can still go down the mountain on the other side. Does he still surround my mountain? Is it not possible here? If you want to go around this mountain pass and surround me, you have to walk at least two hundred miles to make such a big circle?" Gong Xinzhi expressed his incomprehension at the camping behavior of the imperial army.

He couldn't figure out what Chen Guang wanted to do, and the others naturally couldn't figure it out either. In the end, he waved his hand and said, "Okay, I see, you go down first and continue to observe. report."

"Yes."

After the servant left, Gong Xinzhi touched his chin, frowned slightly, and said to himself: "What is this guy trying to do? The terrain here is so high, and his weapon is absolutely impossible to hit so high."

To be honest, isn't the culprit that caused Marquis Wu's failure and even his death from anger to be the terrible weapon owned by Chen Guang?Twilight City is built on the hillside, overlooking the earth on the hillside. If Chen Guang's weapon can still hit him, Gong Xinzhi feels that he can write a big obedience word on his forehead.

And his guess is indeed correct, no matter how advanced the trebuchet is, as long as it has not reached the technological content of the mortar, Chen Guang will have nothing to do with the Twilight City.And it is impossible for Chen Guang to study the mortar temporarily, and even if he is willing to study it, he may not be able to study it.

But Chen Guang also had his own plans, so besides the trebuchet, did he have no other means?Haha, I can only say that you are still too naive.

Besides, Chen Guang, although the people below don’t understand why they set up camp within half a day after they came out, you must know that everyone is already ready for battle, but they received the news of setting up camp. I see this?" What's the difference?
But there is no way, the crown prince is the boss, and what he says is military orders. The so-called military orders are like mountains, and no one has enough to eat and nothing to do to question them. As a soldier, obedience is the first priority, and other things are whatever.

The tents are lined up densely by a small river at the foot of the mountain, and Twilight City is halfway up the mountain across the river.

After the tent was set up, Chen Guang had a leisurely meal, looking like he was surrounded but not fighting.

After eating and drinking enough, he took a nice nap. When the sky gradually darkened, Chen Guang suddenly decided to attack. He called Wu Yong and said, "Arrange 3000 people to attack with me."

"3000 people? Is that enough? Okay." When Wu Yong heard that Chen Guang only had 3000 people, he was confused. This Twilight City was already easy to defend and difficult to attack. Even 3 people might not be able to defeat it. These 3000 people were prepared What to do?Then he felt that he shouldn't ask. Chen Guang wouldn't answer anyway, and he would get a blank look from Chen Guang.

"For the rest of you, just make torches for me. It's okay to make simple and rough ones, as long as it can illuminate. Hurry up and do more. I will keep doing it without stopping."

A sneer appeared on the corner of Chen Guang's mouth, Gong Xinzhi, Gong Xinzhi, isn't it just a comparison of strategies, I'm a master who has watched "36 Strategies", how the hell can you compare with me?What a joke.

Soon, 3000 men were ready, and these were infantry units.

"His Royal Highness, everyone is ready." Wu Yong trotted all the way to report in front of Chen Guang.

Chen Guang nodded slightly and said, "Okay, that's right. Now let everyone take two torches and don't bring anything else. Oh, by the way, another fifty people will bring marching drums, horns and the like. Let's attack. .”

"This..." Wu Yong felt that Chen Guang's order was getting more and more strange. There were only 3000 people in total, and each of them had two torches. What would they use to get weapons?And what the hell are the snare drums and horns?
