Chapter 129 Recognize the Poisonous Plan

Spring is warm and flowers are blooming, and the weather is warm.

For a whole month, the whole Linxiang City was in a state of high alert. Liu Feng was very clear that Xu Shu was by no means a fuel-efficient lamp. At present, Liu Bei's army has arrived, and the total number of enemy troops outside the city has exceeded 8,000. Such a number is enough for Xu Shu to implement a plan to deal with him.

But to Liu Feng's surprise, in the past month, in addition to forcing the city to go down to the city on both sides of the northwest of Linxiang, the large-scale military operations were limited to sending a small group of soldiers to rob Liu Feng's grain road.

It seems that Liu Bei is not in a hurry to break through Linxiang, as if he is preparing for a protracted battle.

The Jiangxia County, which Liu Bei is based, always has to face the pressure of Cao's army from Xiangyang, and the new two counties of Wuling and Lingling, because Liu Fengmi sent deep into the second county and secretly used Liu Qi's banner to make trouble, the second county has always been in a situation of unstable people. In this case, almost all of them are mobilized. It is obviously not in Liu Bei's interest to fight a protracted war with Liu Feng in Linxiang City.

So, Liu Bei besieged the city without attacking. What on earth was he thinking?

The calmness of the enemy made Liu Feng's mood more and more uneasy.

In a blink of an eye, spring goes to the summer solstice, and Linxiang City has been besieged for nearly three months. In fact, to be precise, the enemy's siege in Linxiang is not impenetrable. Eight thousand soldiers and horses are not enough to encircle the control of Changsha, and the contact between Linxiang and the outside world is still unimpeded.

In Guiyang County in the south, Wei Yan, relying on the mountainous terrain characteristics of Guiyang, successfully blocked Zhang Fei's attack, which made the situation in the whole Guiyang County much better. Taishou Ma Liang even pulled out a batch of grain and grass and transported it to Linxiang to reinforce Liu Feng.

In the early morning, a summer rain suddenly came. In the afternoon, the rain gradually went out. Liu Feng and Ma Wei and others patrolled the four doors as usual.

When he boarded the west gate, Liu Fengyuan looked at the enemy camp in the continuous rain and fog and suddenly found that the situation of the enemy camp today seemed to be different from the past.

"What does Liu Bei want to do? Are you going to retreat?"

Ma Yan also saw something unusual. As he said, in the enemy camp that forced down the city, the soldiers of Jiangxia were silently dismantling the tent, and the ox carts full of loads were also constantly driving out of the gate and moving to the northwest.

The siege of the city for three months does not go down, and the retreat seems to be reasonable.

"No, Liu Bei, if Liu Bei wants to withdraw his troops, he should directly withdraw to the Xiangshui wharf in the west and take the waterway to the north. How can he move to the northwest?" Liu Feng had an insight into the strangeness.

Ma Jian stared at the distance and muttered, "Is it Liu Bei pretending to withdraw his troops and trying to lure our army out of the city to chase, and then take the opportunity to cheat?"

Ma Yu's guess is not unreasonable. As long as Liu Feng defends the city, Liu Bei can't help him at all. If he can be tempted to fight, he can annihilate Liu Feng's few soldiers and horses at hand, and then attack the city, the effect will be very different.

However, Liu Feng still shook his head and said, "Xu Shu is very clear that he can't deceive us with such a simple strategy as a tiger from the mountain. Besides, if you want to lure me to war, you can do it earlier, but why do you have to delay it for three months?"

"If it's not a trick to seduce the enemy, what does Liu Bei want to do?" Ma Yan frowned and looked at the enemy's camp from afar, with a little confusion surging in his expression.

Bang!

Liu Feng's fist gently hit the female wall, and his blade-like eyes passed through the mist and stared at the enemy camp.

Suddenly, I felt a trace of coolness on my face. I looked up at the sky. The already weakened rain somehow became heavy again. Lin Lin's raindrops quickly fell to his face like broken beads.

"Lord, it's raining heavily. Let's go to the city to take shelter first." Ma Zhen wiped the water stains on his face and reminded him.

With a loud bang, the thunder exploded from the distant sky, and the urgent and dense raindrops poured down from the clouds full of water. Under the dark sky, there was only a black outline left, whether it was the city under his feet or the enemy camp in the distance.

Liu Feng did not move. The thunder that poured into his ear suddenly gave him a strange illusion, as if there was another sound rushing in his ear in addition to the thunder.

Ma Qian held up his cloak to block the rain for Liu Feng, but Liu Feng pushed him away. He lay down by the female wall, leaned out, and pricked up his ears to find the source of the strange sound.

"Your lord, what's wrong?"

Ma Yu, like others, was a little stunned by Liu Feng's sudden strange behavior.

Liu Feng waved his hand and motioned them not to make a sound. As long as he kept his mouth shut, he stood in the rain sullenly and accompanied him into a drowned chicken.

The strange sound came from the west of Linxiang City, and there seemed to be thousands of horses rushing endlessly.

Another flash of lightning cut through the sky, and the dark sky was lit up in an instant. Liu Feng's expression changed, as if the light of that little lightning lit up his chaotic brain.

Suddenly, a trace of horror flashed in his eyes. He suddenly turned around and strode to the city, shouting, "Please invite Liu Taishou and General Huang immediately. I have a hundred thousand urgent things to discuss with them."

Ma Yu followed Liu Feng for so long and knew that he was not the kind of person who was shocked. Now he suddenly looked strange, and he also summoned Huang Zhong and others in the rain. I think there must be a very important reason. At present, Ma Yu did not dare to delay any time, so he hurriedly sent someone to inform him in the rain.

He ran in the rain and kept going straight to his Zhennan General's Mansion. Just as he had just put on a few dry clothes, Huang Zhong and Liu Ba arrived one after another. Everyone was wet. They didn't care about the rain and wind, so they hurried all the way.

"Lord, call me here urgently. I don't know what's the emergency?" Liu Ba took off his clothes, patted the water droplets on his sleeve, and asked with gasp.

"Guys, Liu Bei besieged the city in March and didn't attack. Don't you feel that something is wrong?" Liu Fengning asked.

Everyone also discussed this matter several times, but after all, there was still no standable analysis and judgment. At this time, everyone looked at each other in front of each other and still had no way to answer.

Ma Zhen seemed to be aware of something and quickly asked, "Master, have you guessed something?"

Liu Feng sneered: "I just toured the west city with you and found that Liu Bei seemed to have signs of withdrawing troops, but I thought that Liu Bei did not want to withdraw troops, but to move to the northwest."

"Moving to the northwest?"

Everyone looked suspicious, and Huang Zhong said, "Liu Bei is good. Why did he suddenly move to the northwest? There must be a suitable reason."

"The reason is that Linxiang City is built in a low-lying place, and the northwest is a highland." Liu Feng walked to the door and stretched out his hand to bear the raindrops. "The reason why Liu Bei besieged the city for March and did not attack was to wait for the spring to go and summer to come. The rainstorm suddenly came, and then the Xiangshui was bound to soar. He wanted to dig Xiangshui to flood Hunan!"
