Chen Xiansong found that the three people in charge of stalking turned a blind eye to their behavior, so he became bolder. He connected the two curtains, twisted them into a rope, tied one end to the roof beam used to hang oil lamps, and tied several knots on the other end to increase the weight, so he could hold it and play with it. After doing this, Chen Xiansong hung the end on the beam.

The three mercenaries looked at him from time to time, but because they couldn't understand the profound meaning of Chen Xiansong's behavior, they thought he was just bored and played, so they didn't care much. Then they moved their sight to the battlefield ahead. Soxi was commanding the army. As Chen Xiansong said, he sent heavy armored soldiers and archers to attack the enemy troops of the Shangdao, and sent cavalry to guard the hill that Chen Xiansong had just pointed out.

After such a command was issued, Soci was very calm. Although he had never commanded the army, he believed in the eyes of professionals. In his opinion, it was enough to wait for victory now. Like him, Leonardo was not a soul-thinker in the war, nor had the experience of commanding the army. Therefore, he felt that the other party could not know how to crack the tactics that Chen Xiansong guided him.

When Soci was so determined, after the arrows on the city wall were chopped off, the president of the Association of the Log City, Rionardo, with his several students, was watching the scene in front of him. His student Casar frowned and said, "It's strange. Soci should be like us, not the soul-thinker of war. Since we have set up a defensive posture, and teacher, you have used the void weapon strategy in the business path as mentioned in the secret book, why did he dare to attack us on the initiative? This is not like the practice of a rational person."

Leonardo did not speak. After the accident in the royal city, the Andaksoya family went to the royal city to serve the king and took away most of the troops in the city. Now his troops were less than 600, while Soci had 1,000 troops. They were at a disadvantage in terms of numbers, so they had to take a defensive position. Originally, he should not command the battle. But the officers who had passed by were taken away by the Andaksoya family, and all those who were left were squad leaders. These people had not experienced more than hundreds of wars, nor had they commanded more than one hundred troops. Therefore, if they were to command, they would definitely be in chaos. Leonardo felt that it would be better to be the commander himself.

After all, there are some books on war in the Leonardo family. Although they are not very profound knowledge, some basic formation arrangements are recorded. He knows Soci. To put it nicely, he is cautious, and to put it badly, he is timid. As long as he sets up a guard formation, he believes Soci will not force himself to break through. However, the situation in front of him was really beyond his expectations.

The Soxi, who had always been regarded as timid by him, actually took the initiative to attack.

This made him a little angry, but his face was not revealed. Behind him, the four students were following him. No matter what, decent things had to be maintained at all times, especially in front of the students. When he saw the heavy armored soldiers walking forward with their shields, he felt something was wrong. When he saw the archers following him, he felt a little clear-headed. When he saw the cavalry moving to the hill diagonally opposite the city gate, his face finally changed.

"Casar. Take the banner and let the archers retreat quickly." Leonardo knocked on the wall and chopped the wall. Although he had not commanded any war, he still had a basic vision: "Soci would never think of such a tactic specially arranged for me, and he also ignored my void weapon plan, which was even less like his style. Behind him, there must be someone who is good at the art of war to help him. Who is it?"

Casar waved two small red flags, and the cloth strips rustled in the air. After the signal was made, he found that the long-range troops on the business road had been attacked. The archers behind the heavy armored soldiers had already started the first round of strafing. A rain of arrows fell, and more than 20 people were lost to Leonardo. When Casar issued an order using the flag language, the army on the business road began to retreat. At this time, the archers on the business road were protected by the heavy armored soldiers, and the other party pulled the strings again in an orderly manner. Another wave of arrows went down, and the other party discounted about twenty more people.

Leonardo was upstairs, seeing all this clearly. His fists were clenched very tightly, and he had not yet tried to fight the enemy. He had already lost nearly fifty people, and a long-range unit had only more than three hundred people. One six of them died before the battle even started. What's that?

There is also a simple city gate here. After the archer troops of the Loom City Army retreated from the attack range of the Soxi archer troops, they started to return to the city from there. Because of the horse blocking, it took some time to remove the obstacles. When the heavy armored troops could move freely, all the enemy archer troops had retreated to the city.

Leonardo stood on the city wall and watched the enemy tear off the horses on the trade road one by one, and felt extremely depressed. President Artemis had already guessed that Soci would fall to Ricardo's side and sent a letter. If the opponent led his troops to support the Imperial City, he would ask him to find a way to stop the enemy for several days, but the current situation seemed to be unable to stop it for a day.

"Damn it, where did Soci find the deep-minded war soul thinker?" Leonardo's face was low. The people around him were forced by his momentum, and most of them dared not take the initiative to talk to him.

Casar is an exception. He thought for a while and said, "I heard the news that a few days ago, Chen Xiansong's convoy passed by our log city at night. The spy from the Imperial City disappeared. Chen Xiansong was suspected to be a soul-thinking person in the war. He pushed down a knight order in Ricardo without any effort. I wonder, would Chen Xiansong be caught by Soxi accidentally and then give advice for Soxi there!"

The greatest advantage of the soul-thinking person is that he doesn't dare to think about it. Leonardo thinks that Casar's assumption makes sense, but he still has some questions: "In order to escape from the Imperial Death City, Chen Xiansong killed Ricardo's more than 200 knights. That's a knight. This is already a deadly enemy. Can he give advice for Soxi?"

"I think it is Chen Xiansong who has a deadly enemy with Ricardo." Casar said slowly: "If it were me, I would definitely be angry at the first time when I lost more than 200 knights, but after calming down, I would have another idea. Since Chen Xiansong can kill more than 200 knights without abandoning one soldier, this means that he is very likely a war soul thinker. Such a talent cannot be exchanged for even 20,000 knights. If I catch it, it is better to use it for myself than to kill it."

Casar said this very reasonably. Leonardo thought that it was true. If he switched positions, he would do this. If he could not surrender Chen Xiansong, he would kill him. If he recruited the other party, he would make a big profit.

When Leonardo thought that the other party might have a soul-thinking person paying attention to this side, he felt a little scared and thought, if he had known that it would have been a good idea that Chen Xiansong would have been killed in the log city some time ago.

But he also understood that it would be too late to regret it now. The only way now is to defend the city and not let Soxi break the city.

Soxi watched his heavy armored army remove all the horses. The business road in front of him was unobstructed. He laughed and returned to Chen Xiansong's carriage and said, "Your Excellency, after putting the cavalry in that place, Leonardo dared not send people to attack my army. The smoke and dust on the other side of the business road was indeed caused by several cavalry running back and forth, and it was indeed a void soldier. You are truly a thoughtful person in the soul of war. The old man admires this very much."

"Now you can pass the business road, there are no traps or horse resistance. Even if the Log City sends archers to shoot on the city wall, as long as you send heavy armored soldiers to set up a shield wall next to the road, others can pass through safely. Of course, if there is a bad guy shot to death by a wandering arrow, I can't do anything about it." Chen Xiansong was talking while looking at Log City in the distance, and felt more helpless. He just said casually, wanting Soxi to kill more soldiers to facilitate his escape plan, but unexpectedly, he really hit it.

Soxi was happy to hear that he could pass the business road safely, but he pondered for a while and said, "Hisser Chen, I now have a new idea. With a soul-thinking person like you among us, I was just thinking about how to pass the log city safely. The psychological pattern is too small. I was already reflecting and then conclude whether we should capture the log city."

"You have too much appetite." Chen Xiansong was stunned after hearing this, and then shook his head: "You didn't bring siege equipment at all, how can you attack the city? And now Leonardo's archer army has withdrawn to the city. As long as it is placed on the city wall, it will be useless if you don't send many people. The archers are far away, and they can't shoot armor that can't wear heavy armored soldiers, but it's hard to say when they are close."

This sentence means reproach, but Soxi doesn't care and smiles indifferently: "I believe you have a way."

"Even if you praise me again, it's useless." Chen Xiansong lay his head on the car window, not wanting to pay attention to him anymore.

Soxi did not leave, but was waiting quietly. He felt that Chen Xiansong was thinking.

Although it was almost summer, it was still very cool in the morning. On the right side of the log city are business roads, and on the right side of the trade roads is an oblique river embankment. On both sides of the river embankment are tall apricot trees. The breeze blows from the other side of the river. Chen Xiansong looked at the apricot trees in the distance, slowly shaking the crowns of the tree. Suddenly, a flash of inspiration, and many things were connected in an instant.

"Suddenly I had some thoughts." Chen Xiansong looked at Soxi and said slowly: "But I dare not guarantee that I will definitely succeed."

Soxi was overjoyed: "Please say, if you need anything, please mention it."

Chen Xiansong's eyes fell on Soxi's messenger. There was an exquisite sheepskin water bag hanging around his waist. This was Soxi's special water bag. It was very expensive and said to be very well-known. Soxi loved it very much.

"I want your water bag, would you give it to me?" Chen Xiansong asked.

Soxi smiled: "Your Excellency, you should have told me a long time ago."

He asked the messenger to hand over the water bag to Chen Xiansong, and was very excited. Compared with a city, what is a little more luxurious water bag? (To be continued.
