"Don't keep me in suspense. Who is it?"
Hearing Sima Zhao's words, the impatient Sima Shi hurriedly asked.
Before Sima Zhao could speak, Sima Yi said:
"Then Bai Feng only accepted the challenge? Did he do anything else? "
Sima Zhao hurriedly said:
"He didn't do anything else. He only challenged Zhuge Liang and Liu Bei, angering them greatly. Right now, they are angry from embarrassment."
"Liu Bei even put a bounty of ten thousand taels of gold on Bai Feng's head."
"That's all?"
Sima Yi seemed unsatisfied with this information and continued to ask.
Sima Zhao was confused. He carefully thought about whether he had missed something.
At this time, Sima Shi patted his thighs and said:
"A few days ago, I discovered something interesting."
"Cao Chun transferred all the criminals and some farmers out of the city and changed them into military uniforms."
Hearing this, Sima Yi suddenly stood up from his chair and said with wide eyes:
"Is there really such a thing?"
Sima Shi did not expect his calm father to make such a big move. He hurriedly said:
"There is such a thing, and it seems to be Bai Feng's idea. But I haven't verified it yet."
"There is no need to verify it. It was Bai Feng's idea."
Sima Yi coldly said:
"I know Cao Chun. He doesn't have such a brain. He can kill the enemy, but his brain is lacking."
"This Xu Chang can be saved."
"I didn't think that Bai Feng would have such a strategy!"
Hearing this, both Sima Zhao and Sima Shi did not understand what their father meant.
Right now, there were more than a hundred thousand soldiers attacking the North Gate!
How could Xu Chang be saved? How could they rely on the farmers and criminals gathered by Bai Feng?
The criminals might have some fighting ability, but the farmers did not have the strength to truss a chicken!
Moreover, the criminals could not be compared to the elites of the Ferocious Cavalry.
Even if these people were added together, there would only be thirty thousand people.
How could thirty thousand people defend the city against an attack of more than a hundred thousand soldiers?
The two looked at Sima Yi at the same time.
However, at this moment, Sima Yi continued to lie on the armchair with a smile on his face.
"You two continue to investigate. You must pay close attention to Bai Feng's next move."
"I hope the two of you can learn something from this."
Hearing this, the two Sima brothers were a little unconvinced.
Study?
The two of them had studied the art of war and strategy with their father since they were young. They boasted that their strategy was not inferior to Xun Yu and Jia Xu's. Even their father, who was usually serious, could not hide his praise when he asked some questions.
But now, their father wanted them to learn Bai Feng?
But since it was their father's wish, the two of them didn't say much and left.
"Bai Feng? Interesting, this person is really interesting! "
Sima Yi closed his eyes and enjoyed the sunlight as he murmured.
…
Outside Xuchang City.
The battle was in full swing.
The Western Liang Army was still strong. It did not take long for Zhao Yun to break through the city gate.
Countless Xiliang soldiers swarmed into Xuchang. For a moment, battle cries resounded throughout Xuchang.
But Zhuge Liang, who was not far away, was still frowning.
It was too simple.
Compared to before, the siege this time was simply too simple!
Since the beginning of the siege, Bai Feng had not appeared. The resistance of the City Defense Army was obviously much weaker than before.
Zhuge Liang really couldn't figure out why.
After entering the city, fighting in the streets was indeed much more difficult than attacking outside the city. There would definitely be more casualties.
But since they had already entered the city, it was only a matter of time before Xuchang City was breached.
And once the army entered the city, even if Cao Cao came now, it would be of no help.
With more than a hundred thousand Xiliang soldiers guarding the city, even if Cao Cao attacked with all his troops, it would be difficult to take down Xuchang City unless he planned to raze it to the ground.
Zhuge Liang was well aware of the difficulty of taking down Xuchang City.
"What is Bai Feng doing? Has he really given up on resisting? "
Zhuge Liang was lost in his thoughts. He couldn't feel happy at all.
Ma Teng and the others didn't think as much as Zhuge Liang. When they saw that the city gate had been breached, they were overjoyed.
Indeed, with such a strong attack, even if the City Defense Army resisted with all their strength, they wouldn't be able to withstand it.
Once Xuchang City was breached, the Xiliang Army would have a place to stay.
One must know that Xiliang was far inferior to the Central Plains.
Especially Xuchang City, it was extremely rich and easy to defend but hard to attack. As long as Cao Cao was breached, he would have to spend a lot of effort to take it back.
During this period of time, they could continue to slowly mobilize the people of Xiliang and then expand to the side.
They wouldn't have to worry about being easily breached by Cao Cao and they wouldn't have to starve and freeze every day.
Ma Teng, Han Sui and the rest of the Xiliang Army dreamed of such a life!
Thinking of this, Ma Teng and Han Sui rushed toward the city gate without hesitation.
Liu Bei saw this and followed closely behind.
Since the city gate had been breached, Zhuge Liang followed Liu Bei into the city.
As soon as they entered the city, Zhuge Liang saw the tragic situation.
After entering the city gate, there was a passageway. The passageway was extremely narrow and couldn't accommodate a large number of troops. They could only enter in batches.
However, as soon as the Xiliang Army entered the city and poked their heads out, they were cut down by the soldiers who were lying in ambush.
In an instant, blood splattered everywhere. These soldiers didn't kill them with one strike. Instead, they slashed at the soldiers' arms and knees.
Countless soldiers with broken arms and legs instantly lost their fighting strength. The intense pain made them lie on the ground and scream while covering their wounds.
However, this prevented the troops behind from entering. When the soldiers behind saw their comrades lying on the ground and screaming, they couldn't bear to step on them and move forward.
Although it was painful to have broken arms and legs, as long as they were treated, they could still survive.
However, if they were stepped on at this time, these people would die without a doubt.
However, the ones who killed them were not the enemies of Xuchang City, but their own people!
Zhuge Liang was shocked.
What a good psychological attack!
However, it was futile!
Zhuge Liang said in a low voice,
"All troops, attack! Don't make any mistakes! If we don't kill those soldiers lying in ambush, the soldiers from before would have died in vain! "
After receiving the order, the Xiliang Army at the front clenched their teeth and finally moved forward.
Zhuge Liang narrowed his eyes and looked into the city.
In war, sacrifices were inevitable. It was naive to think that they could use such a psychological attack.
However, after a small batch of soldiers were killed, the soldiers lying in ambush seemed to have evaporated.
Without the ambush, the army began to close in on the city.
They didn't seem to have encountered any enemy troops along the way.
Even when Zhuge Liang and the others arrived at the rear, they still didn't see any enemy troops.
Zhuge Liang was confused and continued to move forward with the army.
Not long after, Zhuge Liang saw Bai Feng and some soldiers not far away.
