Chapter 282 Tang Yin is the commander-in-chief, how his subordinates act needs his permission, the attack is unfavorable, and he falls into the enemy's ambush, Cheng Jin is at fault, but Tang Yin cannot escape the blame, at this point, Tang Yin has something special, he will never make excuses for himself to shirk responsibility.
After listening to his words, Cheng Jin and the people around him were all moved.
As the commander of the three armed forces, being able to take the initiative to admit that he was wrong in front of his subordinates is not only a matter of courage, but also a broad mind and bearing.
It's just a pity that Tang Yin has the courage, but he doesn't have much mind and bearing, he just doesn't have the psychology of being high and low, and he doesn't think it's a shame for him to admit his mistakes.
From Ling's point of view, Tang Yin at this time has not set himself in a very high position.
The open attack failed, and the night attack failed, and Tang Yin had no choice but to listen to Qiu Zhen's wishes and wait for his own logistics to arrive.
The next day, the direct army did not attack again, and the county army that Mao An was waiting for was also reinforced in the future.
Now, Geng Qiang is still in the West Hundred Cities, discussing with his advisers and generals whether to listen to Mao An's opinion and attack the Tianyuan Army led by Tang Yin.
Geng Qiang himself was undecided, and the strategists and generals below were also divided into two factions, one faction advocated going to war, and the other faction advocated sitting and defending.
Time was lost little by little in the argument between the two factions.
The next day, Tang Yin tried the feint attack of the surname, and saw that the defense of Jicheng was still fierce, so he ordered the main force to be withdrawn, and only sent a small group of troops to disturb it, so that the enemy's defenders could not be at peace.
That night, before the logistics arrived, Zong Yuan came to rush back.
He stayed in Linqiao for two more days to select the county guard and the city lord, and now that the candidates had been found, he hurried back.
After meeting Tang Yin, he first reported the results of his own handling, and then learned about his current battle situation.
After listening to everyone's story, Zong Yuan pondered for a moment and smiled, and said to Tang Yin: "My lord, in fact, it is not difficult to take Jicheng" "Oh" After hearing his words, everyone present was stunned, including Tang Yin.
His side has been fighting Jicheng for three days, but it has not been able to attack for a long time, Zong Yuan said that it is not difficult to defeat Jicheng as soon as he came, and the tone of this is a little too big.
Tang Yin smiled and asked, "Mr.
Zongyuan, what are your plans, let's hear about it?"
"Continue to use the strategy of night attack," Zong Yuan said confidently.
After everyone heard this, they all frowned, and they also used night attacks, isn't that asking for hardship Cheng Jin, what about the dark arrows, such a powerful group of dark cultivators didn't get a bargain, who else to send to the night attack this time Tang Yin shook his head, and said with a wry smile: "Master Zong, we have already failed once, do you think we can succeed with a night attack again?"
Zong Yuan smiled and asked, "May I ask my lord, how many defenders are there in Jicheng City?"
Tang Yin didn't understand the purpose of his question, and frowned and said, "Up to 20,000 people" "Yes, there are only 20,000 people, and they have been fighting with our army for three days, and their soldiers must be exhausted, how can they be in a high level of tense defense all night" Zong Yuan paused, looked around at everyone, and said: "We can send people to the night attack again, but this group of people is to send them to death, the purpose is to dispel the enemy's defense, after thwarting our army's night attack, the other party will definitely not think that our army will have a second wave of night attack, and then, this second wave of night attack can surprise the other party."
After Zong Yuan finished speaking, everyone lowered their heads one after another, pondering silently, all thinking about whether Zong Yuan's plan was feasible.
Sending two waves of sneak attackers, divided into one first and one behind, this is really unexpected, no matter how cunning Mao An is, he will never expect his own hand.
It's just that the first wave of sneak attack soldiers will die for life, and if you implement this plan, your own losses will not be small.
Tang Yin naturally thought of this, he frowned and said, "If it is according to the plan of the sect master, then few of the brothers who attacked in the first wave will be able to return to the base camp alive. ” Zong Yuan arched his hand and said: "It is worth exchanging the final victory at a very small price, even if our army's siege baggage arrives, there will still be casualties when the city is attacked, my lord, what do you say?"
Entang Yin nodded secretly, then looked around at everyone, and said, "Everyone, what do you mean?"
Qiu Zhen stood up and arched his hand and said, "Master Zong's strategy is outstanding, and his plan is feasible."
For Zong Yuan's strategy, Qiu Zhen also admired it very much.
In fact, he and Zhang Zhe are both good at overall strategy, and the tactical strategy during the handover of short troops is far inferior to Zong Yuan.
Hearing that he also thought so, Tang Yin no longer hesitated, and said: "Okay, let's follow the plan of Master Zong, and tonight, our army will attack Jicheng again."
"Yes," everyone stood up and answered in unison.
Tang Yin accepted Zong Yuan's plan, and selected a hundred dead soldiers in the whole army, and they served as the first wave of sneak attacks, and the dark arrow personnel led by Cheng Jin served as the second wave of sneak attack missions.
In addition, he set the direction of the sneak attack in the back city of Jicheng, and ordered the whole army to secretly gather in his own camp outside the back city of Jicheng, including the Besa cavalry, as long as the front is successful, his army can rush out of the camp as soon as possible and go straight to the city.
After everything was arranged, Tang Yin found the leader of the hundred dead soldiers.
This person is a captain, named Jiang Chu, who does not know how to be a martial artist, but has a strong body, tall and mighty.
Tang Yin looked at him for a moment and asked softly, "Jiang Chu, do you know the danger of this sneak attack?"
Jiang Chu arched his hand and said: "Lord Hui, the enemy is outnumbered, and the enemy has already taken precautions, this sneak attack, his subordinates have already made up their minds."
Tang Yin nodded, his eyes darkened, and waved his hand to the side.
At this time, the guard standing on the side walked to Jiang Chu with a tray and handed it to him, Jiang Chu raised his eyes and saw that all the gold ingots placed in the tray were Huang Cancan.
Tang Yin said: "You can take this gold and share it with other brothers."
Jiang Chu's hand had already stretched out, but he immediately retracted it, raised his head, looked directly at Tang Yin, and said: "My subordinates sacrificed their lives for the country, and they didn't want to reciprocate" After a pause, he said again: "If the adults have the heart to reward, send these gold to our home."
When Tang Yin heard this, he was very moved in his heart, if there were other good strategies, he would definitely not let these respectable and admirable soldiers go to death, but in order to break the city as soon as possible, in order to minimize his own losses, he could only make sacrifices.
He sighed softly in his heart and said, "If you die in battle, I will definitely provide for your family and let them have no worries about food and clothing." ” "Thank you, my subordinates, I have this word, and I have no regrets when I die" Jiang Chu heard this, knelt on one knee and bowed his hand.
Midnight.

The 100 dead soldiers of the directly subordinate army led by Jiang Chu quietly sneaked out of the camp and went straight to the back city of Jicheng.
Similar to the situation encountered by Cheng Jin during the sneak attack, from the outside, Jicheng's defense was very lax, not to mention that there were no sentinels in the tower, and there were no patrolling soldiers on the city wall.
These dead soldiers, unhindered along the way, lurked under the city walls smoothly.
Jiang Chu and the others listened quietly for a while, confirmed that there was no movement on the city, and then took off the rope they were carrying, threw the iron hook on the city, grabbed the arrow battlements, and hundreds of soldiers used their hands and feet to quickly climb up to the city head along the rope.
If you look to the left and right on the long city wall, not to mention the soldiers on patrol, there are not even guards standing guard, and such lax defense does not seem to be at all when the two armies are fighting.
Jiang Chu knew what was going on, he gritted his teeth, turned his heart sideways, shook his head at the soldiers under his command, and said in a low voice: "Go down the city wall and open the city gate" Hundreds of soldiers directly under the command retrieved the rope, hung it on the inside of the city wall, followed the rope, and quickly descended the city wall and entered the city.
They clinged to the base of the city wall, raised their legs high, landed lightly, and slowly sneaked towards the city gate.
Surprisingly, they didn't encounter Pengguo's ambush soldiers at all along the way, and they were not blocked, and they really let them get to the city gate cave smoothly.
At this time, Jiang Chu couldn't help but secretly wonder, looking at the city gate that was close to support, and muttered in his heart, could it be that the enemy really did not guard against his own sneak attack Without time to think about it, he shook his head and motioned to everyone around him to quickly move the latch and let his army into the city.
Hundreds of soldiers were about to move the door latch according to Jiang Chu's meaning, at this moment, the drums suddenly sounded outside the city gate, and the ambush soldiers appeared, only to see countless Peng troops wearing red armor pouring out from all corners and in the dark, and each knife was out of the sheath, and the arrows were wound, as if facing the enemy.
"Haha" With a burst of laughter, a general walked out of the soldier of the Peng army, and shouted: "My family has already arrived and will come to attack our city at night again, but you are not as good as a batch, this time Tang Yin actually only sent you useless waste to send to death, it is really ridiculous that if you are smart, you will obediently lay down your weapons and surrender, if not, you will die without a place to be buried."
The Peng general who spoke was Mao An's general, Lu Qingfeng.
Hearing the words, Jiang Chu and the others were shocked, and secretly screamed in their hearts that it was terrible Jiang Chu hurriedly shouted: "Leave the enemy alone, open the city gate quickly" "Yes" When the soldiers heard the order, they all agreed and worked together to move the latch of the city gate.
The city gate is made of pure copper, and the door latch is also made of copper, wide and thick, and extremely heavy, how can it be said that they can move it down, not to mention, Lu Qingfeng will not give them the opportunity to move the door latch.
Seeing that the other party did not listen to his advice and insisted on going his own way, he sneered, raised his hand, and shouted: "Release the arrow" As he spoke, Peng's arrows flew into the city gate cave with a roar.
Pity these more than 100 dead soldiers of the directly subordinate army, who have no shields and nowhere to dodge, are like live targets, shot by ruthless arrows row after row.
The screams of the people, the sound of arrows breaking through the armor and bones, even Jiang Chu was not spared, there were more than a dozen arrows inserted horizontally and vertically in his chest, lower abdomen, thighs, and arms, some of which had even pierced his body, but he did not fall to the ground, and roared angrily at Lu Qingfeng: "Traitor, the fate you are waiting for will be the same as Zhong Tian, broken bones, and it is not a pity to die" As he spoke, he struggled to raise the war knife in his hand, staggered and rushed towards Lu Qingfeng
