Chapter 162: How can the vast heaven treat me so poorly?
On the mountain on the east side, a large banner with the word "feather" was erected high, and a general's platform was pushed out.
Yu Huatian, dressed in armor, looked at the surrounded Yan army below, but there was no joy on his face.
Lian Yong loyally guarded around and protected Yu Huatian closely, but the weapon in his hand was replaced with a heavy spear.
King Ning was standing aside. When he saw the Yan army being surrounded, he danced with joy and said loudly,
"General Yu, General Yu, what a good plan! Shen Changgong, that idiot, has really been fooled. Look, his big banner has already arrived in the middle of the military camp, and our army has also completed the encirclement. This time, Shen Changgong can't escape even if he has wings!
General Yu is really smart. This time he will definitely be able to wipe out the main force of the enemy, then make a surprise attack, capture ** City, and kill the empress.
Ha ha ha ha……"
King Ning laughed heartily, and suddenly saw Yu Huatian standing beside him, with a frown on his face and a worried look in his eyes. He said in surprise,
"Huh? Yu Shuai, why aren't you smiling? Were you born with a dislike for smiling?"
Yuhuatian, who was born with a smiling face, now had his smile gone. He no longer had the relaxed and confident expression he had before, but instead looked worried.
"I'm wondering if this matter is going too smoothly."
Prince Ning was puzzled.
"Hmm? Isn't it good that it went smoothly? Your plan was foolproof, and Shen Changgong is a fool, so it's normal for him to be fooled..."
"The person who treats Shen Changgong as a fool is the real fool!"
Yu Huatian rarely scolded,
"How could a fool defend a city so hard that I'm exhausted? How could a fool persuade your troops to surrender in front of you with just a few words? How could a fool force me into a desperate battle?"
After saying this, Yu Huatian breathed a sigh of relief and shouted,
"Send the order, the main forces on the north and south wings will launch an attack."
"As ordered!"
As the command flags were waved and drums sounded, the Kun army in the north and south valleys marched in orderly steps towards their original camp.
Yu Huatian looked at the armies below and suddenly said,
"I always feel an ominous premonition lingering in my heart."
"Huh? What's going on? Are you too nervous?"
Lian Yong asked as he looked at Yu Huatian's breathtakingly beautiful face.
Yu Huatian shook his head and said,
"I don't know, maybe I was just too nervous.
This battle is the most crucial one to determine the outcome of the war. I am staking all my troops on this gamble.
If we win, our army can march straight into the capital.
If we lose, our army will be defeated and will have no choice but to retreat to Yaoguan.
But all this seems to be going too smoothly. Shen Changgong doesn't seem like someone who would be easily fooled."
Lian Yong thought for a moment and said
"Maybe Shen Changgong is really eager for revenge. After all, he is just a young man in his early twenties. It is normal for him to be full of youthful energy."
"I hope so."
Yu Huatian looked back at the balls made of vines and branches behind him, which were full of the smell of kerosene.
"When the fighting on both sides of the north and south becomes intense, we can push all these fireballs down. The walls of our main camp are smeared with kerosene, which will catch fire as soon as it touches the fire. The same goes for the tents. As long as the enemy's center is in chaos, we will surely win the battle.
Moreover, I have prepared a gift for Shen Changgong that will be enough to make him lose his mind."
……
Shen Changgong walked into the tent of the Kun army camp. There was nothing inside except a table with a folded piece of clothing neatly placed on it, and a letter on top of the clothing.
Shen Changgong picked up the letter, looked at the pink and red women's dress underneath, sneered, and then opened the letter.
The letter read, "From Mr. Shen himself."
"Lord Shen of Lanling, I am glad to see you in person. I have long admired you. If we were not on opposite sides, I would have met you earlier, and we would have drunk wine and tea and discussed military and state affairs.
Unfortunately, our two countries are hostile to each other, but I don't want to regret it for the rest of my life.
Today, I, your foolish brother, have no choice but to lead you into a trap. I hope Brother Shen takes care of himself and does not forget the bet.
Someday, when we are in Shengjing, enjoying wine and conversation, I hope Brother Shen will wear this dress and dance for me. I will be deeply grateful."
This letter is very polite throughout, but it is full of humiliation.
Shen Changgong sneered, handed the letter to Gongsun Wan'er, and said,
"Put this letter and this dress away."
"Ah? You really want to wear it?"
Gongsun Wan'er was horrified and began to imagine the scene of Shen Changgong wearing this seductive women's clothing.
Shen Changgong was furious and slapped Gongsun Wan'er's head hard, saying,
"I told you to put it away so that Yu Huatian can wear it in the future. When I capture him alive and bring him to the capital, I will make him wear this dress and see how he behaves in a coquettish manner."
"Hey, okay."
Gongsun Wan'er covered her head and collected all the clothes with one hand.
She knew how petty Shen Changgong was. He was a vengeful person. If anyone dared to humiliate him, he would humiliate them back in the same way.
Shen Changgong left the general's tent, set up a platform in the middle, and observed the battle situation around him.
The enemies on the north and south sides have launched an attack, and there are 40,000 people on each side to defend against the enemy. In addition, Shen Changgong has also arranged 40,000 people on each side of the east and west, lined up in neat battle array, and defended the city with all his might.
Together with the Yan army on the north and south sides, they formed an iron barrel formation, with dense defense.
As for the wall of the camp, when Shen Changgong found that the wall collapsed at the touch of a button and smelled of kerosene, he immediately ordered people to push it down and demolish it, leaving it in a mess.
This is clearly an enemy trick.
There were at least 60,000 to 70,000 enemies on both the north and south sides, and the Yan army, as the defending side, also had 40,000 soldiers each. The two sides fought back and forth, and the Yan army would occasionally drop a bomb, blowing the enemy to the ground and scaring them away.
By the afternoon, Yu Huatian was still observing the battlefield, looking for a suitable opportunity.
Suddenly, a muffled thunder was heard in the sky, and the rumbling sound woke Yuhuatian up.
He looked up and realized that he was so focused on watching the battlefield that he forgot to look at the sky.
"Quick, light the fireball and push it down, no more waiting!"
Yuhuatian shouted angrily and ordered the soldiers to light the fireballs and push them down one by one.
After seeing the fire, the people on the opposite mountain immediately lit fireballs and pushed them downwards.
Shen Changgong was good at using fire attacks in defense, and Yu Huatian also retaliated in the same way.
However, just as those fireballs were pushed down and rolled towards the Yan army, huge raindrops suddenly fell from the sky, and in the blink of an eye it turned into a downpour.
The cold rain splashed on Yuhuatian's face and also shattered his determination to wipe out the Yan army.
Yu Huatian looked up at the sky, tears in his eyes, and sighed,
"How can the vast heaven be so unkind to me..."
