Chapter 965

Therefore, the news that King Ning and the others got was exactly that.

Of course, it is indeed as stated in the letter of the special envoy of the Maitreya Society, since the division of troops, Ming Zhongxin immediately used his anti-heaven divine sense, dodged all ambushes, picked a small path, shook off the attacks of the thieves, and went straight to Anqing. Oh, no, it should be going straight to Hongdu, to make an ally with Wu Wending, and take Hongdu.

But he didn't think that this hidden trace actually had an unexpected effect, which frightened King Ning, who had originally decided to attack Anqing, and thought that Ming Zhongxin was going to attack, so he quickly gave up An Ying, hugged his head and ran away, called back to help Hongdu, but he was avoiding Ming Zhongxin.

What King Ning didn't expect was that he would come to whatever he was afraid of, it didn't matter if he came back to help Hong this time, but he was about to meet Ming Zhongxin, which can be regarded as a coincidence!

However, this is all a later story, let's talk about the current Wu Wending.

Wu Wending received the order of Liu Daxia, the governor of Nanzhen, and immediately set off, evaded the rebels besieging him, quietly went out of Ji'an, and rushed to Hongdu, of course, these rebels besieging Ji'an were not vegetarians, and they found that they disappeared without a trace on the second day, and immediately sent spies to find out his clues, judged the location of his attack arrow, and was so frightened that he immediately reported back to King Ning, so that there was the topic of Liu Yangzheng and King Ning's support.

Speaking of this Wu Wending, after meeting with several officials and troops in Linjiang Mansion, according to Liu Daxia's handwriting, all the officers and troops were mainly Wu Wending, and they joined forces in one place and went straight to Hongdu.

On this day, Wu Wending stood in a secret place outside the city, quietly looking at the fortified city of Hongdu, and sighed in his heart, this is King Ning's lair! Who would have thought that he would have a day to fight back.

He was besieged by King Ning in Ji'an before, which was so embarrassing, but now he has a chance to take revenge, and this time, he is strong and strong, and what makes him even more excited is that if he captures this fortified city, this is really the most glorious time in his life! The thought of this makes my blood boil!

So, Wu Wending, who had always been calm and calm, suddenly became murderous, and directly gave an order, "Everyone, this is our opportunity to make contributions, and it is to attack the city at night." This siege is by me, and I will take it! Under the order of the third watch, go straight to the city! Under the order of a drum, go to the city and fight! Under the order of the second drum, those who have not landed in the city will be engaged in military law! ”

As soon as this order came out, the generals were colorless, and they hated in their hearts, this guy was too cruel to us! However, the military order is like a mountain, and they can't refute it, otherwise, they will be wronged by military law!

So, everyone went down to prepare.

As night falls, the night attack officially begins.

Wu Wending gave an order, and the sergeants quietly touched the city of Hongdu.

At this moment, suddenly, gongs and drums sounded in unison above the city, and arrows flew sideways.

Ambushed! At the first moment, Wu Wending exclaimed in his heart.

However, it was too late.

But I saw a fire under the city, but it turned out that a rocket was shot directly from the city.

And there are things that can be set off under the city, and when they encounter rockets, the flames soar into the sky in an instant, and the officers and soldiers are burned to the point that ghosts cry wolves.

Wu Wending looked at this scene and lamented in his heart, he knew that this night attack had fallen short! You can only attack the city with dignity!

Think about it, since King Ning is preparing to rebel, how can he not take a good look at this hometown, he is a little whimsical!

Helpless, he can only withdraw his troops!

Only the miserable howls of the sergeants remained in the city, and Wu Wending was heartbroken. However, at this point, let's stop the war and fix it! Anyway, this city will definitely not be able to be breached today, and if it is attacked, I am afraid that it will only increase casualties! Let's take it slowly! Anyway, our task is to lure Zhu Chenhao, the king of Ning, back to help Hongdu, as long as this central task is completed, it will be a great achievement!

Cleaning up the battlefield, Wu Wending gave an order, and this night attack ended without a problem!

"Master Wu, the sneak attack failed, how should we deal with it next?" The prefect of Linjiang asked in a deep voice.

Wu Wending said confidently, "Lord Zhang, this time our task is just to bring back King Ning's army, this time we only need to make a feint to attack Hongdu, Hongdu will inevitably send spies to King Ning for help, then, we can sit back and wait for King Ning to come back, our task will be completed, and the governor will naturally go south to quell the chaos!" ”

"Lord Zhang, don't avoid the important and take it lightly! We naturally have to obey the governor's orders, but if King Ning comes to help, how can our soldiers and horses be able to deal with this two-sided attack? When the time comes, what should we do now? The prefect of Zhenzhou asked in a deep voice.

The prefect of Yuanzhou and the prefect of Linjiang nodded one after another, which is exactly what they are worried about! After all, they thought well before, capture Hongdu before King Ning returned to help, occupy a dangerous place, stick to this city, drag King Ning under the city, wait for the governor's reinforcements to arrive, and when the inside and outside should be combined, they can take King Ning, at that time, they are the first great achievement!

But now, their wishful thinking has been shattered, how can they not be apprehensive?!

Wu Wending smiled calmly, "Ladies and gentlemen, since the governor has arranged it like this, how can there be no backhand, rest assured, the governor has sent a team of men and horses to rush here day and night, I believe that when King Ning arrives, this army has already arrived, and when the time comes, we will have this team of men and horses to deal with King Ning, we only need to drag the defenders in this Hongdu City!" ”

As soon as these words came out, the prefects' eyes lit up instantly, but then a trace of doubt suddenly appeared, Wu Wending would not lie to us, right?!

Wu Wending directly took out a handwritten letter from his bosom and placed it on the table, "Everyone, if you don't believe it, you can take a look at this handwritten letter from the governor!" ”

The prefect of Linjiang rushed forward, took the handwritten book on the table, opened it and took a closer look, his eyes lit up, and he smiled.

The prefects of Zhenzhou and Yuanzhou also stepped forward, and after watching, they were also happy.

Everyone looked at Wu Wending with surprise, "Lord Wu, is this true?" Wang Qincha and Master Ming are going to lead the army to come? ”

"That's natural, you also know how powerful Wang Qincha and Master Ming are, even the fierce rebels in the land of Yunnan have fallen to the ground, how can this little Ning Wang bandit army be put in the eyes of others, I'm afraid it can be destroyed with one hand!" Wu Wending looked triumphant and replied disdainfully.

But the prefects didn't care, after all, if Wang Qincha and Master Ming came to help, they would come soon, and we would have no worries! Pleasantly surprised! At that time, we can lie down and ask for credit! Such a good thing is rare in a hundred years!

They didn't know that Wu Wending was playing drums up and down in his heart, you know, although this handwritten letter is true, but the content has been forged by him, the governor of the people didn't say that, just said to rush as much as possible, but not as the handbook said, he would rush to Hongdu in the near future to block the army of King Naning for them.

This army of King Ning's return to help has to be held back! I'm afraid it's going to be another hard battle!

However, we have to stabilize these prefects first! Otherwise, it will be bad if there is civil strife first!

"Ladies and gentlemen, although Wang Qincha and Master Ming are about to lead the army to arrive, however, we can't be so incompetent, we must make some moves, otherwise if we don't have this attitude, we will leave a bad impression on the superior, then we will really lose face to our Jiangxi army! In addition, it will have a great impact on your future promotion! Wu Wending flickered.

"Where did Lord Wu come from, let's just say so, a certain and Lord Wu led the army to attack the city, and the prefects of Zhenzhou and Yuanzhou went to defend the army of King Ning's return, and built this immortal feat together!" The prefect of Linjiang patted his chest and said.

"No, a certain and Master Wu will attack the city together!" The prefect of Zhenzhou also grabbed the words.

"No, go some!" The prefect of Yuanzhou is also in charge.

Wu Wending smiled bitterly in his heart, these people are really smart! You must know that if Wang Shouren saw that they were attacking Hongdu when Wang Shouren led the army, it would be more impactful than waiting for King Ning's army to do nothing! Moreover, this is a good opportunity to show merit, and if Wang Shouren leaves a good impression, and Wang Shouren says good things in front of Governor Liu, won't their road to promotion be smoother in the future?! These are all monkey spirits!

However, you are in the wrong place! Wu Wending sighed in his heart, we lied to you! When King Ning arrived, Wang Qin might not be able to catch up! When the time comes, you will lose your strength by attacking the city and be powerless to deal with King Ning's rebels, then you will have fun!

However, he did not dare to say these words! can only persuade each other, lay out the facts, be reasonable, and finally settle these people, let them take turns to attack the city, and they can be regarded as a person who eases the war and supervises the war!

Not to mention, now, no one has anything to say, and they all look happy!

Wu Wending didn't want to say anything, they camped separately, besieged Hongdu, and prepared to attack Hongdu again at dawn, after all, if Hongdu was captured as soon as possible, they would have a strong city to guard, and they would not have to worry about King Ning's reinforcements!

However, the spies' return made them a little apprehensive, just because, the spies returned, King Ning really led the army back to help! Their strategic goal has been achieved! However, they were about to face the wrath of King Ning, however, the spies did not find out at all where the reinforcements of the imperial court, that is, Wang Qincha and Master Ming's army, were?!

At this time, they were not calm again, and they couldn't help but come to Wu Wending's place to seek psychological comfort.

Of course, Wu Wending had already thought of countermeasures, and was extremely calm, looking at them with contempt, with a look of hatred for iron but not steel, "My lords, do you think that when Wang Qincha and Master Ming went south from the capital before, could anyone know their whereabouts?" But they appeared in the land of Yunnan like a god descending from heaven at the most important time, and they were so frightened that the Yunnan rebels were terrified. Isn't it the power of Wang Qin's mission to find out if they can't be detected? ”

Wu Wending's explanation made the prefects feel certain, and then they thought about it, "Yes, if Wang Qincha can be detected by us, wouldn't it also be detected by King Ning's rebels?" What's so great about that, it's just like this that you can turn the tide! ”

Everyone suddenly realized, and the entanglement in their hearts dissipated.

Next, they put all their enthusiasm into attacking Hongdu, however, after all, Hongdu is King Ning's lair, and they are naturally heavily guarded, how can they be broken so easily?!

Gradually, their confidence was shaken, and Wu Wending was constantly harassed, and Wu Wending's pressure was getting bigger and bigger, but he had no choice but to do anything, only generally, looking at them with contempt and despising their guts.

But this approach is becoming less and less effective.

Finally, on this day, the spies reported that King Ning's return to the rebels was only more than forty miles away from Hongdu, and now, Wu Wending could no longer suppress them.

Gathered in the tent, several prefects stared at Wu Wending and asked for an explanation.

Wu Wending looked at these people helplessly, and now, the truth of the matter has to be told to them.

Before he could say a word, Wu Wending slowly stood up, took a step forward, and bowed, "Ladies and gentlemen, please forgive Wu for deceiving everyone!" ”

When everyone heard this, their faces changed greatly, and they couldn't help but take a step forward and grab Wu Wending's arm, "Master Wu, what do you mean by this?" ”

Wu Wending smiled bitterly, "Yes, the governor sent troops to help, this matter is true, however,"

"And yet, what?" Everyone had a bad premonition in their hearts and asked.

"However, it was not said when the reinforcements would arrive! even warned Wu in a handwritten letter that we might have to encounter the encirclement of King Ning's rebels on both sides! Wu Wending could only cruelly tell this fact.

Yes! The crowd stood stunned as if struck by lightning.

When they came back to their senses, everyone looked at Wu Wending viciously, "In other words, you are lying to us about the reinforcements or something?!" ”

"No, Wu just didn't say when the reinforcements arrived, the reinforcements were still there, and it was really led by Wang Qincha and Master Ming, however, Wang Qincha is now in charge of the imperial history, and Master Ming is in charge of the imperial history." Wu Wending hurriedly shook his head and denied it.

Alas! Everyone couldn't help but look at Wu Wending speechlessly, they understood that now, even if we break this Wu Wending's body into ten thousand pieces? There is nothing to do at all, on the contrary, now we have to help each other and tide over the difficulties together!

"Lord Wu, didn't the governor send a letter stating when reinforcements arrived? Moreover, there is no information from the imperial history of Wang Yandu? Linjiang Governor Zhang frowned and asked.

Wu Wending smiled bitterly so many times today, even he couldn't make a bitter smile anymore, so he could only shake his head and say, "No, there is no news!" ”

Everyone's faces fell, which meant that they couldn't tell when the reinforcements would arrive! How do we deal with the current situation? Everyone fell into deep thought.

"Could it be that we are actually being used as bait? Actually, we've been given up by the Governor? The prefect of Zhenzhou suddenly asked.

As soon as these words came out, everyone's hearts moved, and their faces changed dramatically, which was extremely ugly.

Wu Wending was immediately furious, "Lord Yun, you can't just say this!" This is to shake the morale of the military, if it weren't for us to be in the same boat now, Wu would be able to engage in military law now! ”
