Start Being a Vassal King Today - Chapter 865

[Chapter 865]

“Well, it’s so good.” Zhao Xu looked at Chang Wei, who also nodded.

Since they want to act, they naturally have to act more realistically.

The army of the Wangfu is really going to Songyang Pass.

If the tail of the Iron Wood Tower is dealt with, they will directly attack Songyang Pass.

The matter was settled.

Ma Han went back and led the soldiers of the Qin army to dig tunnels for Tibetan soldiers in hidden places in the courtyards of civilian houses in Miancheng.

Chang Wei dispatched another 10,000 people to him, and asked him to gather 60,000 people.

The 60,000 soldiers were distributed throughout the cotton city according to the order.

Especially in the courtyards on both sides of important roads, there are the most Tibetan soldiers.

After five consecutive days of excavation, the tunnel for Tibetan soldiers was basically completed.

These tunnels are different from the tunnels, because they are only used to hide soldiers, so they don’t extend in all directions like the tunnels in the village.

Just being able to hide some people is enough, so the amount of work is not big.

And when they were digging the tunnel, the detective in charge of the investigation found that the Tiemu Tower Department was following, hanging far behind them.

Once they leave Miancheng, the Tiemu Tower Department will definitely be stationed between Miancheng and them, cutting off the food road.

“Hmph, this time I’ll let you guys have enough.” Zhao Xu sneered a few times when he heard the news.

The next day, he and Chang Wei led the troops out of the city and headed straight for Songyang Pass.

The same as when they came, they still marched with chariots on both sides and soldiers in the middle.

In this way, they could not accurately deduce the number of soldiers because the chariots obscured the soldiers.

And in order to confuse the Beidi scouts, he deliberately widened the distance between the chariots and the soldiers.

It also caused the soldiers to deliberately raise dust when they walked, so that the entire team was shrouded in smoke and dust, making it even more difficult to distinguish.

at the same time.

As soon as the royal army left the city, the Beidi scouts sent the news to Tiemuta.

“They’re going to attack Songyang Pass.” Tie Muta’s heart tightened when he heard the scout’s news.

He naturally knew the importance of Songyang Pass.

This is the only way they can return to the grassland.

Therefore, after the news of the fall of Miancheng reached his ears, he scolded Ashur and Olsky a hundred times in his heart.

“My lord, what should we do now?” a wolf recorder asked.

Tie Muta frowned and pondered for a while, then he said: “It’s better to cut off the grain road of King Yan, their chariots have limited grain, and the high wall of Songyang Pass is not so easy to take down, we still have to exhaust their food supply.” Food and grass, starve them to death.”

Then, thinking of something, he asked the scout, “You said the gates of Miancheng are open?”

“Yes, the gates on all sides are open.” The scout replied.

Tie Muta frowned even deeper, and he said: “What kind of medicine is sold in this gourd, King Yan?”

According to the scouts, this cotton city seems to be an empty city.

However, he was also scared by King Yan’s tricks.

So he said: “Take a team of people to explore the city, in case there are frauds.”

In response, the scouts ordered a team of 200 cavalry to go to Miancheng.

When they arrived outside Miancheng, they looked at each other and walked to the gates of the four cities in four ways.

Reining in their horses and standing there for a while, seeing that there was no movement, they boldly entered the city.

But apart from the hooves of their mounts, the city was so quiet that a needle could be heard falling.

Then, they checked the shops on both sides of the road and broke into unoccupied houses to search.

It turned out they found nothing.

While they were searching, soldiers of the Qin Army watched them from hidden corners.

At this moment, the soldiers of the Qin Army were extremely nervous.

The ruse was a risk, and if discovered, the ruse would have failed.

The royal family’s troops had no choice but to turn back and think of other ways.

If the Beidi people were convinced that Miancheng was an empty city, they would have succeeded.

Therefore, they were very careful when excavating the cave for hiding soldiers.

A hole was made on the side wall of the well, and the hole was covered, leaving only a small hole for ventilation.

From the top, there is nothing unusual.

There are also digging holes under the big trees in the courtyard, and digging holes under the counters of the shops on the street to hide.

They even pulled out the blue bricks of the inner city wall, dug out the mud inside, turned it into a cave for hiding soldiers, and then built bricks from the outside.

The soldiers inside only carried fried noodles to fill their stomachs.

After these caves were dug, they also conducted exercises.

Soldiers from the royal family came to look for them in person.

If it is found, it will be rectified until a new batch of soldiers come and it can’t be found.

And just like that, the Beidi scouts searched the city roughly, found nothing, and left one after another.

“It’s really an empty city.” The news brought back by the scout made Tiemu Tower feel weird.

Then he thought: In the battle of Miancheng, King Yan won a big victory, he must be full of confidence, and felt that he could win the battle quickly without the food and grass in Miancheng, and get supplies again.

Furthermore, King Yan also knew that it would be useless to keep people in Miancheng, just like the city in the north, even if there was food and grass in the city, it would not be able to transport it out, so it would be better not to keep soldiers.

Figured out this joint, he ordered his soldiers to go to cotton city.

If King Yan fails to attack Songyang, he must retreat back to Miancheng.

He occupies it now, and King Yan will not be able to come back when the time comes.
