Chapter 1253
This road is less than a hundred miles but one after another heard bad news, the king is furious but also has to force the anger to think of a remedy, to be precise, the best way is to recapture Wuhu City as quickly as possible, with the city as a stronghold to compete with the officers and soldiers, in order to continue to go north.
But now the Qingge River is in front of him, but he is helpless for a while, thousands of people crossing the river is not feasible for a few small boats, not to mention that it is raining at this time, and the soldiers are tired because of the rapid march, in this case, what can they do if they cross the river.
However, the fighter plane was fleeting, and Wang Tizhong still gritted his teeth and sent people to search for things to cross the river, fortunately, there are many rivers and rivers here, and most of the people live by fishing, even if the people have been taken away by Wang Zamao, the village is ten rooms and nine empty, but the boats are still there.
"General, our people crossed the river to see, Wang Zamao's words are eight or nine percent credible, he did attack the city at noon, and the corpses under the city are really heavy losses, and just now I heard that the city is preparing to besiege again, saying that it will launch a second attack." One of his men entered the courtyard and walked up to him and whispered.
"What else is he going to attack now!" Wang Tizhong couldn't help but snort: "So many people, hungry and empty-handed, went to attack the city, they went to give people heads!" ”
His subordinates were stunned: "He should also be self-aware, could it be that he really went crazy, it seems that he was really provoked."
"Shit! His mother is just making a gesture to show Lao Tzu, I just want Lao Tzu to see him working so hard and softening his heart to attack him lightly! Wang Tizhong sneered. Wang Zamao is his right-hand man, but he is not a confidant, because he is too flamboyant and brainless, always looking like a scoundrel, not stable enough, and it is difficult to achieve great things.
"That'...... How is the general going to punish him? His subordinates asked with a smile, and Wang Tizhong snorted: "How dare you punish him at this moment, you have to use him to desperately take the city back, and you have to let him be a pioneer to fight in Nanjing, this account will be remembered for him first, and slowly calculated for him!" ”
"This kid is usually arrogant, I hope this time I can make him have a long memory" The subordinate sighed, Wang Tizhong glanced at him, and suddenly asked: "Liu Xi, do you think it's strange?" According to what Wang Zamao said, there are officers and soldiers waiting for orders in the north of the city, and about nearly 10,000 soldiers and horses from the three roads of Dangtu Dispatch, and they are almost converging at this time when the weather is sunny in the afternoon, but they know that the troops in Wuhu City are weak and they do not see reinforcements at this time, especially when Wang Zamao attacked the city at noon, the officers and soldiers who were thirty miles away did not send reinforcements and only showed up and went back, why is this, is it really afraid of Tang Hu's people, even if it will be afraid, but this will be ten thousand soldiers and horses will be afraid? ”
Liu Xi was stunned again, and his brows twisted into twists: "Then maybe, the officers and soldiers have not been cowardly for a day or two, not to mention that thousands of people have no courage, I heard that when the Tartars entered the customs, hundreds of thousands of their soldiers and horses fled when they heard the news."
"It's possible, but I always feel as if they're deliberately holding back, as if they're waiting for something." Wang Tizhong's face was solemn.
Liu Xi sighed: "What are you waiting for, waiting for the sky to be clear?" ”
Wang Tizhong shook his head: "I don't know, but I have a bad feeling" said and glanced sideways at Liu Xi: "Wang Zamao has any other actions besides besieging the city?" ”
"The general is suspicious of Wang Zamao...... Liu Xi was stunned, and Wang Tizhong rubbed his head: "Be careful to sail the boat for ten thousand years, you don't know what virtues Wang Zamao has, and Hang Erlang will do everything when a capricious person is cornered."
Liu Xi nodded: "This ...... I'll shoot some more brothers and go over and find out in detail."
Wang Tizhong snorted, looked up at the dark night sky, and the rain did not stop: "Let's prepare to cross the river tomorrow at dawn tonight." ”
"The general is not afraid of losing the fighter?"
"That's no way, the situation in front of me is too chaotic to cross the river rashly, and if you are not careful, you will fall into the net and there is no turning back!" Wang Tizhong said that a trace of murderous intent suddenly appeared on his face: "If Wang Zamao has a different heart, let him fend for himself, let's guard this riverside, and the officers and soldiers want to go south is also delusional!" ”
The long night rained, on the south bank of the Qingge River, Wang Tizhong's subordinates searched for the boat to prepare for tomorrow's water crossing, and the head of Wuhu City on the opposite bank was tenacious and Jin Shenghuan looked at the thief army under the city with a solemn face, and looked at the posture to be surrounded on all sides?
"At this point, people have to scatter and attack, is his brain broken" Jin Shenghuan couldn't guess and scolded in a low voice.
"Maybe their reinforcements are coming!" With a long exhale, Jin Shenghuan's face immediately turned pale, and he looked up and looked north: "It's time for ours to come."
"Are you scared?" Guo Ren glanced at him and said with a smile. Jin Shenghuan shook his shoulders and fell sincerely: "There is always some pressure, the attack at noon is already thrilling, if its reinforcements come...... Ahem, ahem".
"General Jin relaxed" Guan Ren patted her on the shoulder: "It's still the same sentence, the little overseer's personality is only in and out, and it is not easy to get what he has, no one wants to snatch it, maybe he is holding back some tricks at this time."
"That's it!" Jin Shenghuan sighed and looked at the west of the city.
A few miles away at the foot of the sacred mountain, Wang Zamao was still discussing secret matters with several of his henchmen, at this time he only knew that Wang Tizhong was near, but he didn't know that it was on the other side of the Qingge River, and he didn't know that he was already a little suspicious.
More than ten miles northeast of the city, on the bank of the Biandan River, the soldiers of the Black Wolf Battalion hid in the grass hut and listened to the sound of the rain and slowly fell asleep.
At the same time, Lu Zhenfei and Zhang Liang on the other side of the Yangtze River whispered in the military tent, but their faces were extremely relaxed, much better looking than the bitter gourd face in the previous few days, all thanks to Chang Yu's actions in the past few days.
Both of them heard that Chang Yu was famous, saying that he was so powerful in the north, but it was rumored that there had always been a lot of water, and the eunuchs of the overseers had always liked to take risks, so they had the idea of taking a look and talking about it, but it was only a few days, the little eunuch first went to Nanjing to transfer troops, and then came to the east and west to secretly cross Chen Cang to make the thief army in the clouds, early in the morning the rain did not stop and saw that the opposite bank of the river was empty, and at noon on the opposite bank there were brocade guards to cross the river to the capital to send good news...... Good news, is it possible?
It took almost no effort, the little eunuch only took Wuhu City with less than 100 personal guards under his command, and Lu Zhenfei and Zhang Liang just shouted on the other side and made an assist! This made both of them fall in surprise.
I thought that there would be a few battles to capture Wuhu City, but who knows......
This little eunuch really has some skills, but he heard that there are only more than a thousand guards in the city, and at this time the thief army is attacking frantically, and the two of them are raising their hearts to their throats again, hurry up and support! It can be learned from the mouth of Jinyi Wei that the little eunuch was chatting with Lu Daqi and others on the wild mountain thirty miles away at this time, and the two felt that this was too nonsense, how could they see that they could not be saved!
The brocade guard was also an interesting person, and when he saw the anxious look of the visitor, he said: "Have the two adults ever heard a sentence called: mountain people have their own clever plans."
Belch...... Lu Zhenfei and Zhang Liang shook their heads and smiled bitterly, it's really that the emperor is not in a hurry The eunuch is not in a hurry, what are we in a hurry with this eunuch's temperament, with the temperament of a little eunuch, he can be so calm.
Sure enough, when it was dark, news came from the other side that the thief army was not good for attacking the city and suffered heavy damage, but its reinforcements may arrive, so that Lu Zhenfei and Zhang Liang paid close attention to the river surface so as not to be exploited by the thief army, and they had to cooperate with another replay at the right time, with smoke as the number.
Just with a few shouts, this battle is not easy, and it is no wonder that the two of them can be so calm.
"Report, thirty miles northwest found a large number of soldiers and horses are rushing here" At this time, a spy came to report, which surprised the two of them, and quickly asked for a detailed explanation, then they breathed a sigh of relief, if the expectation is good, it should be Li Yan and they arrived.
Obviously, they guessed wrong, and it was Wu Sangui, Ma Ke, and the two battalions of Black Tiger and Black Panther under the command of Chang Yu.
Li Yan heard the news that Chang Yu had captured Wuhu City in the first battle was late at night, and he was crossing the Huai River outside Fengyang City.
"Hey, I really obeyed him, I can win the battle with Nanjing's soldiers, and I have to obey if I don't accept this" Huang Degong is a proud person, and in his eyes, the soldiers and horses in Nanjing City are all scum.
"Just because the soldiers and horses in Nanjing are not good at fighting, the first battle is particularly important, it is a matter of morale, which is also the reason why Xiao Du mainly fights with the army in person" Li Yan smiled lightly and then made a key point: "General Huang, didn't you listen carefully, it was the tough ones who captured the city."
Huang Degong was stunned and then slapped his thigh: "Hey, I'll just say it...... Tut-tut, the toughness can now resist the beams."
Li Yan laughed when he heard this: "So let's pay attention to it, don't grind and chirp, it's all over there."
"It's impossible to be so fast" Huang Degong shook his head, and his face gradually became solemn: "There are many mountains and rivers in the south, and the terrain is complex, and the thief army is also very fierce, they will kill you if they fight, and if they can't fight, they will drill into the mountains for ten points in the south, and I have been fighting with Zhang Xianzhong in the south for several years, but it's really fucking...... I have worked hard and endured all the hardships" said with a slight pause: "To put it simply, they will not fight with you like they did in the north, they will use all the terrain to deal with you, and they will never die!" ”
"If this is tricky, but the little overseer is also good at this, otherwise you see that he will come up with a surprise attack and capture the city, which is more unexpected!" Li Yan smiled slightly, and Huang Degong snorted: "If not, even if he fights all the soldiers and horses in Nanjing, he may not be able to take it over, Bai Wang's men and horses are notoriously strong, you should always know about this."
"Then let's see whose means are higher," Li Yan said, looked up at the night sky, and stretched out his hand: "Is it raining?" ”
