Chapter 191: Dipping the golden axe and setting up an empty city plan; Wei Ruolan seeks to capture Ningxi City (2)
As soon as he heard that the people were coming to ask for food, Shi Yu's first reaction was to use the people to drag himself and others. It's not just one or two people, it's a city! Although the city is a little smaller, it is also twice as large as these people. "Old Xie, how is this good?" Xie Whale didn't have a way.
Baoyu thought for a while and replied, "I just told the people that our grain and rice were robbed by the rebels, and it will take some time to transport it again, but the rice and grain will definitely be distributed, and there will be as much as the city in front." ”
Shi Yu said, "Although it's easy to say, where did we get the grain and rice?" What you come out to carry is for your own use, if you give it out, in case the rebels turn back, how can it be good! ”
Baoyu said, "I can only say this now, and then Lao Xie will lead the troops to stay, and the two of us will take some people back to transport grain, and since the city is in hand, how can we stabilize the people first." ”
"What Second Master Bao said is very true, if we easily abandon the people, what is the difference between us and those rebels?" After Xie Jing finished speaking, he said, "Since it is to urge food, it is not too late, go over early, and go to Shen Shiwen's side to have a look, I am afraid that the rebels also have this to say." ”
Baoyu and Shi Yu received the order, Xie Whale asked how many people to bring back, Baoyu said, "The two thousand cavalry last time was very proper, less will not work, and more will not be fast." ”
"I know you have a point, so I won't say more." After Xie Jing finished speaking, he assigned it once, and allocated 5,000 men and horses to Shen Shiwen, and ordered Shi Yu to take them along the way, and then sent the two on the road.
When the two arrived at Shen Shiwen to garrison the city, as Xie Whale said, the people here also came to ask for food. Shen Shiwen is worried. Seeing Baoyu and the others is considered to be a savior. After listening to the coping method, he went with joy. Seeing that it was getting late, Baoyu stayed outside the city for one night, and the next morning, he led his troops east.
Before noon, the men and horses arrived at the fork in the road, going east to Wei Ruolan's side, and south to the gold axe's side. Baoyu looked at it for a while, his heart moved, and he said to Shi Yu, "Won't this big city be empty?" ”
Shi Yu smiled, "When did you have this problem?" It's not enough to take advantage, it's not enough to pick up two for nothing, and if this big one is gone, what else do they have? Besides, how can a scout not reciprocate? ”
"That's right, but there's always something strange in my heart." Baoyu said and looked up, and said, "Otherwise, you take someone to go first, I'll go over and have a look, and then I'll arrive." ”
Shi Yu also felt that Baoyu was different from ordinary people, so he thought about it and said, "Forget it, it's not far inside and outside, it's a cavalry, go over and take a look, and then go is the same." Baoyu thought about it and nodded. The two led their troops south. I knew that I had only walked half the way, and I was meeting the scouts who had been left behind, and it was said that the rebels in the city had come out with no less than 30,000 people, and they had all gone south.
Shi Yu was stunned for a moment, and sighed again, "You guessed it!" ”
Baoyu estimated the time the scout said, calculated the round trip, and then said to Shi Yu, "If you catch up with this time, you may be able to cover up the infantry once." Shi Yu nodded, don't look at it at the moment, there are only two thousand people, but they are all selected iron bow elite cavalry, even if they bump into the cavalry along the West Sea, they can fight. praised Baoyu like this, and ordered the scout to go to Xie Whale to report the news, and chased after Baoyu with his troops. When he was about to go to the city, he met the scouts who stayed behind and reported: I am afraid that the city will be empty this time, and a team of cavalry behind the palace has also gone out.
Baoyu asked once, couldn't help but be stunned, and said to Shi Yu, "Forty thousand people!" There were 40,000 men in the city that day. ”
Since there is a cavalry palace, there is no point in catching up, Shi Yu calculated the account, "The two cities where Shen Shiwen and Lao Xie are stationed, I have asked the people a few times, I am afraid that it is a garrison of about 3,000 people, and the two cities are 6,000. The two cities to the south were about the same, with six thousand men. And to the west there is a great city, if it is the same as in front of you, it will be 40,000 people. In a few clicks, wouldn't the rebels still have 100,000 people? ”
Baoyu said, "But I can say, after a few battles before and after, counting them 80,000 people, it is almost the same, how did they come out of 100,000?" ”
Shi Yu said, "Maybe I've coerced the people." Otherwise, someone from the west will come. ”
Baoyu said, "How to say that it is 100,000 people." Our two thousand, plus those brought by Lao Xie, can have 40,000, Wei Ruolan and Feng Ziying led 20,000; General Feng also brought more than 10,000 people. Inside and out, seventy-five thousand. ”
"Isn't there more than 10,000 people in Nan'an? If you add it up, let's ...... in one click," Shi Yuzheng said, seeing that Baoyu was already sluggish, he hurriedly said, "But what's wrong?" ”
Baoyu took a breath and said, "Don't be crazy about these things, desperate to take over the royal city?" ”
Shi Yu was also stunned, "No! ”
Baoyu said, "Maybe it's it, use the people to drag our grain and grass, 30,000 people to hold the west and finally Ningxi City, block us, and then divide 70,000 to attack the royal city, even if the prince of Nan'an is good at guarding, I am afraid that it will not be possible, not to mention this time, the royal city has already begun to drink porridge." ”
"How is this good?" Shi Yu was also anxious.
Baoyu thought for a moment and said, "Send a letter to Lao Xie immediately; Then the scouts should be dispersed, and the roads should be denser; You choose a place to be stationed, I'll go to Wei Ruolan's side, I can't say that we will also abandon the city and march. ”
Shi Yu said, "Even if King Xiaowei abandons the city to help, it is only 20,000 people, why not stare at General Feng and call it 40,000?" ”
Baoyu said, "More than 10,000 people from General Feng can come up, but those more than 10,000 people are kept to guard the city in front of them, this is a way out!" We can't break the boat, they are desperate to take the royal city will increase their momentum; If we break the kettle, the momentum will not be completely lost? ”
"The situation is good, but it can't be broken." Shi Yu thought for a while after speaking, "How about letting the prince of Nan'an and others abandon the city?" ”
Baoyu said, "Don't say whether the rebels will be desperate, but they were found after saying it, and none of them could escape, in order to defend the city that day, the cavalry was very limited." ”
Shi Yu said, "Speaking of which, it is good to force the rebels to make a desperate bet, but it is out of Pingliang County, and there are people behind them, but they can't press it." ”
"Are we talking to each other?" Baoyu said with a smile, "Just rest assured, these days can be regarded as witnessing life and death." I will not be affected by my scheme. Hold on, hold on. ”
Shi Yu said, "That's good, if you fall, no one can keep an eye on the new king who dipped the golden axe!" ”
"Don't even talk about it at this time, hurry up and assign people, I'm going to leave too, a little earlier, it's a while!" After Baoyu finished speaking, he saw Shi Yu nodding and said nothing, so he urged the horse to go. Shi Yumu gave Baoyu a ride, and then he was in a hurry. There were three passers-by before and after to send a letter to Xie Whale; and sent hard agents into the city to investigate. In the end, the advantageous place was chosen to be stationed.
Seeing Baoyu riding back alone, Wei Ruolan was shocked, Baoyu didn't care about explaining anything, so she first asked for a bowl of water to moisten her throat. That's when I told the story from beginning to end. Seeing that the two of them understood, Baoyu said to Feng Ziying, "Uncle Feng, I can't say that I want Ziying to run back." ”
Feng Ziying was excited to hear it, and she didn't want to let herself send the letter again. I was very aggrieved in my heart, but the governor was big, and I was still unwilling, so I asked casually, "What about after sending the letter?" ”
Baoyu said, "Wei Ruolan and I will lead the cavalry first. You send the letter back, and the infantry will follow. Uncle Feng pressed the grain and transported the grass at the end. Feng Ziying immediately rejoiced when she heard that she was in command of a team. It's not that he doesn't have a city government, it's not that he hasn't commanded the army, in fact, it's the first time that the two armies have been in front of the formation. So in such a hurry to go.
Wei Ruolan persuaded Baoyu to rest, and when she was ready, she would wake him up again. Baoyu was also tired, and he didn't say anything about Wei Ruolan, so he went to rest. If I still want to thank the whale in my heart, it's really a tough battle, and the acquaintances are good! Let's just say that this time, I can only come back by myself to send the letter, not to say that I am better at riding, and I have more effort to write secret credits, but I only say that I will not come back, and I am afraid that Feng Ziying will not be moved. Feng Tang's more than 10,000 people are also key. Besides, if Feng Tang didn't send an urgent report back, Qiu Liang wouldn't move forward. One ring after another, looking tight, but in fact cumbersome, it's easy to say that it's all one heart, otherwise it's today's situation. I hope that when the battle comes, there will be no chaos.
