Chapter 96: Dong Shuyi's game with Ding Guifei
"General, you were so tough just now. If Chen Bozhi is angered, and he lets Xiao Baoyin, the commander of the Wei army, attack with all his might, I'm afraid we won't be able to resist it. The adjutant general worried.
"You're wrong. I do. Chen Bozhi, on the contrary, will feel that we are confident. He wouldn't have had any opinions. If so, we will be showing weakness. I'm afraid that the Wei army will hurry up and attack our Liang army. Xiao Baoyin is also a suspicious commander. On the contrary, it can buy us more time. Wang Mao analyzed.
Speaking of Xiao Baoyin, after listening to Chen Bozhi's words, he thought to himself: Could it be that Wang Mao's army has already been ready for battle? He is not afraid of our Wei army at all?
Could it be that he has enough confidence to defeat us?
It's amazing!
"His Royal Highness King Qi. Wang Mao doesn't seem to take our Wei State seriously at all. Does he think that our Wei State is vulnerable? Chen Bozhi said.
"Could it be that he is suspicious?" Xiao Baoyin asked.
Wechen felt that he was bluffing. Wang Mao's army had already suffered heavy losses. He shouldn't have the strength to attack. Therefore, His Highness can continue the siege. Wang Mao will definitely be able to perish. Yang Zhen said.
"The widow still feels that he needs to be cautious. If the siege continues, the Liang army may continue to counterattack. And even the more frustrated it is, the more courageous it becomes. Qi King Xiao Baoyin said.
"The more frustrated you are, the braver? Your Highness. Today, Wang Mao's soldiers are exhausted. If we continue to fight, we will definitely be able to conquer Xiangyang," Yang Zhen said.
"Capture Xiangyang. Are you overthinking it? The resistance of the Liang army is so fierce, even if we conquer Xiao Yan. Xiangyang is probably also a scorched earth. Besides, our army is basically gone. Xiao Baoyin said.
"His Royal Highness King Qi. What is most needed to seize the Liang State is the hearts of the people. It's not a small profit. The people of Liang State, you need to attack the heart. If His Royal Highness has been so ignorant of the overall situation, he has conquered Xiangyang. It is also impossible to destroy the Liang Kingdom. Yang Zhen said.
"General Yang Zhen. You don't understand. The widow is the concubine of Wei, not the royal family. If the loss of troops is too much. I'm afraid I won't be able to explain it to Your Majesty. Xiao Baoyin cried.
Yang Zhen thought to himself: Xiao Baoyin can't make a big deal. So, don't worry so much. We can withdraw our troops with confidence. I'm thankful to be able to return to Wei.
At this time, Chen Qingzhi's 20,000 reinforcements were already on the way.
Chen Qingzhi's soldiers began to march west on a battleship.
Chen Qingzhi said to Captain Xian Xin: "Can you hurry up?" If it's so slow. Wait until you arrive in Xiangyang. The Wei army may have already conquered Xiangyang. ”
"Conquer Xiangyang? You're thinking too much. General Chen, General Wang Mao of Xiangyang is not an idle person. He can defeat the Wei army. I believe in his strength. Xian Xin said.
"I'm just scared of what happens. Sin Xin. Wei has an army of 200,000. Moreover, Liangzhou had already been occupied by the Wei State. If the army of Xing Luan, the Shangshu of Wei, came to support, Xiangyang would be in danger. Chen Qingzhi said worriedly.
"Don't worry. General Chen. The defense of Xiangyang City was also impregnable. As long as General Wang Mao continues to hold on. It will definitely be able to repel the Wei army. When His Majesty was in Xiangyang, he always attached great importance to the construction of fortifications in Xiangyang. Xian Xin said.
At this time, Xiao Baoyin launched an attack on Xiangyang City again.
Rows of siege engines and ladders were erected on top of the towers.
Wang Mao shouted: "Soldiers, even if they are broken bones. We can't let the barbarians of Wei ascend the tower. Nor can the Hu people of Wei be allowed to defile the civilization of Jiankang City. Kill. ”
The pikemen picked up their spears again and stabbed them at the enemy's chariots.
The Wei people began to attack with trebuchets.
Dense stones flew into the towers of Xiangyang City.
The tiles on the roof of Xiangyang City were smashed to pieces, and there was a loud noise.
The fragments of the tiles pierced into Wang Mao's muscles, and Wang Mao was bleeding profusely in an instant.
However, he was still slashing and killing the Wei soldiers who climbed the tower.
The Liang army continued to counterattack, and the broadsword cut down the ladder of the Wei army.
The corpses of the Wei army once again filled the Yangtze River.
Once again, the river turned red.
Wang Mao shouted: "Don't mess around. ”
The soldiers of the Liang army picked up broadswords and slashed the enemy.
The Liang soldiers jumped on the siege engine and slashed at the enemy.
The crossbowmen of the Liang army continued to shoot, and rows of bows and arrows shot into the chariots of the Wei army, and the people inside the chariots of the Wei army began to scream: "Ah......"
The Liang army began to throw corpses into the Wei army's chariots.
In a short time, the chariot of the Wei army collapsed due to overload.
One chariot after another collapsed, squashing the Wei soldiers.
After a day of bloody fighting, the Wei army withdrew again.
"I didn't expect Wang Mao to be so brave. I really didn't expect it. Brave Wang Mao. Xiao Baoyin said with emotion.
At this moment, rows of warships appeared in the distance.
Xiao Baoyin looked at it, and there was a banner of "Chen" on it.
"Could it be Chen Qingzhi's reinforcements?" Xiao Baoyin's face turned pale with fright.
He thought to himself: Now, our Wei army has just been defeated by the Liang army. If it was at this time, Chen Qingzhi would have attacked. I'm afraid our Wei army will be wiped out. What to do?
Xiao Baoyin then shouted: "The enemy's reinforcements have arrived. We can withdraw now. ”
The Wei army began to return one after another.
They got on the battleship and began to move along the Yangtze River.
The Wei warships immediately broke away from the river outside Xiangyang.
Wang Mao shouted: "Victory......"
However, Chen Qingzhi's warship soon arrived outside the city of Xiangyang.
Wang Mao found that there were actually three warships.
Wang Mao went out of the city to greet Chen Qingzhi.
He asked, "General Chen Qingzhi." Did you take 3,000 men with you? ”
"That's right. Three thousand people. I have only three thousand. Chen Qingzhi said.
"The Wei army is 200,000. If it's 3,000 people, I'm afraid it's not enough for the enemy to stuff their teeth. Wang Mao said in fear.
"General Wang. My 3,000 men are all Beifu soldiers in Jingkou. In that year, 5,000 Beifu soldiers defeated the 900,000 army of Fu Jian, the Great Qin Heavenly King, in the Jin Dynasty. Today, 3,000 Beifu soldiers are more than enough to deal with the Wei army. Chen Qingzhi said.
Wang Mao smiled: "General Chen is really a genius. ”
With that, he fainted.
"Niangniang, Recently, Your Majesty has favored Dong Shuyi again. In order to curry favor with her, the ministers in the court gave her gifts one after another. The maid Xiaoding complained.
"Your Majesty, pampering other concubines is not something that this palace can control." Ding Guifei said.
"Niangniang, if Your Majesty continues to favor Dong Shuyi. If she gives birth to a son, won't she overpower you? The maid Xiaoding said.
Ding Guifei took a night pearl, turned to the maid Xiao Ding and said, "You give this night pearl that Tuyuhun paid tribute to the eunuch Xiao Yunzi." If Dong Shuyi is pregnant, I hope he can notify the palace as soon as possible.
