Chapter 335: Thoughts Out of the City
Although the husband and grandson came to Daxing City to help the spring boy, this kind of "passive" help still made the spring boy have a pimple in his heart.
was sued by his younger brother to let his husband and grandson come to Daxing City, and the spring boy felt even more uncomfortable.
"Sir, I heard that the gates of this city will not be opened again tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, but what has happened? You also know that the contemptible family relies on business to eat, and if the gate of this city is not opened, the caravan will not be able to enter and exit, how can the goods in this store be turned? Lao Hei asked.
The housekeeper smiled and said: "The affairs of the generals in this barracks, where can one of my subordinates know, I advise you not to inquire carefully, as for your family's business, hold on for two days, this matter will pass, don't worry." ”
Lao Hei chewed carefully what the butler said, and insisted on it for two days...... In other words, the closure of Daxing City has only been in the past two days, and in the past, Daxing City will return to its previous state.
The housekeeper mentioned the military camp in the city, that is to say, what big actions will the defenders in the city take in the past two days, and they are afraid of leaking the news, so the spring boy gave the order to seal the city, and after the army moves, he is naturally not afraid of any news leaking......
The rest of the specific news is not available from the housekeeper or from elsewhere, but this is enough, and the next thing is to think about how to pass this news to the Tang army's barracks outside the city, and remind his Hou Ye to be careful of the movements of the army on this side of Daxing City.
Lao Hei returned to the backyard of Jintong shop and told everyone about his conjecture.
"The pigeons can't be released, and if we are discovered, we will be all done, at least for now, we can't leak yet." Jinyi Wei Baihu said.
He knows very well what their purpose is, one city and one pool are just immediate interests, and the purpose of Jinyiwei is the two brothers Quan Nan and Quan Nanjian, and if they are separated, this battle has been successful for the most part.
Quan Gai Su Wen trusted the most, the two sons around him, plus the two lieutenant generals who had been with him for so many years, now one of the two lieutenant generals led the troops to the south to deal with Su Dingfang, and the other was the husband and grandson, who is now assisting the Quan boy in Daxing City.
What Jin Yiwei has to do is to split the enemy from within.
"Then how do we figure out how to get out of the city?" Lao Hei asked: "Now that the city gate has been closed, I asked the steward about the city gate under the pretext that the chamber of commerce was out of stock, and the steward said that I would hold on for two days....... And now the patrols in the streets are very frequent at night, and two groups of defenders pass by a quarter of an hour away....."
"It can also be seen that the defenders in the city are indeed going to attack Hou Ye and them, and it is very likely that they are going to attack Hou Ye's camp." Jinyi Wei Baihu said: "The last time our people set off fireworks in the city to signal to the people outside, maybe it has already made the people in the city suspicious, if we use the same method this time, this suspicion will be confirmed." ”
"Chief, if it's night, I'll sneak up the city wall and go down from the city wall, it's a big deal not to return to this city for the time being." Another brocade guard said.
"No, it's too dangerous, and there are so many people on the city wall now, I'm afraid you will be arrested just under the city wall." Baihu said: "In this way, there is still some time before dark, go to the closest place to the city wall and buy a yard."
"Buying a yard? My lord, are we going to open a branch again? Lao Hei asked.
"What branch to open, if you don't tell the housekeeper that our chamber of commerce is out of stock, it will be possible to open a branch, but you have given everything, what branch to open?!" Jinyi Wei Baihu said helplessly.
Now the city gate of Daxing City is closed, all the people in the city are not allowed to enter, some necessities of daily life have to rely on the supply of various grocery stores in the city, Jintong at this juncture to open an inconspicuous branch, it is not impossible, but now others know that the Chamber of Commerce is out of stock, and then go to open a branch against the limelight, and make a big splash, which is tantamount to setting yourself on fire.
"So what do you do with buying a yard?"
"Make a warehouse." Jinyi Wei Baihu said angrily: "Get all the messy boxes and carriages in the backyard, and now you can only use the stupidest way, dig tunnels, dig out from under the city wall, don't dig too far, as long as you can dig through the drainage ditch in the city, go out from the drainage ditch." ”
"The boss is wise!" Lao Hei slapped a sycophant on the back.
"Come less, hurry up and do something, start work tonight, go out of the city as soon as possible to send the news out, and the brothers in the shop will go out to inquire again to see if there is any other news, it would be better if you could inquire about the specific time."
The crowd nodded and began to act.
It is not difficult to find a courtyard near the city wall, but to find it is to find an inconspicuous place, preferably one where the guards are sparsely guarded and rarely pass by the defenders patrolling at night, and the corner of the city wall is the most suitable, and it is still close to the drainage ditch under the main city.
The reason why people got all the carriage boxes was also to hide people's eyes, since the tunnel was to be dug to connect the drainage ditch in the city, there must be a lot of excavated soil in the yard, and it was necessary to dispose of this soil quietly.
Outside Daxing City, the Tang Army sent more than 100 scouts around Daxing City every day, one is to pay close attention to the news of Daxing City, and the other is to intercept and kill the scouts sent out by Daxing City.
"Report ~~~~"
Outside the camp tent, the scout ran into the camp tent: "Qi Qi Hou Ye, the scout in front of you reports, Daxing City is closed the city gate, and the city gate has not been opened all day today." ”
"Stand down, explore again."
"Yes."
The gates of Daxing City were closed, and even the people in the city could no longer enter and exit, were the spring boys and their husbands and grandsons stimulated by their own letters? It is better to arrive, as long as they move, they will definitely be able to find their flaws, at least much better than the 20,000 army attacking the city and filling this great city with human lives.
"Master Hou, is the spring boy going to make any moves?" Chang Le said.
"Yes, knowing that Changkou City was taken by the Tang Dynasty, and Goguryeo is now surrounded by the Tang Dynasty with a north-south attack, even if there is really nothing important, his heart will be messed up, although Goguryeo is allied with Baekje, but there is still a Silla in the south that leans towards the Tang Dynasty? Silla and Baekje are feuding, and Silla can't beat Baekje, but it is enough to hold them off and prevent Baekje from making trouble for Datang. ”
