Chapter 899: Embattled
Chapter 899 is embattled
The goal of the Chai clan is very obvious, that is, to directly take Chengdu Mansion, it can be said that the Chai clan saw the biggest weakness of Song Jiang's forces, that is, the foundation is too shallow, and the time they have come to Shuzhong is too short, as long as they take Chengdu Mansion, the so-called Han King system will collapse. In order to cooperate with the attack of Chai's Shuanghu on Chengdu Mansion, after repelling the action of Ding**** wanting to cross the river, Chai Yonghao also quickly launched a further offensive, squeezing out 20,000 soldiers and horses from Fenglei Town and Hangu Pass, and carrying out a crusade against Hanzhong in the north of Shuzhong along Jianmen Pass. The geographical location of Hanzhong is very important, the plain is vast, but the success is also the Jianmen Pass, and the defeat is also the Jianmen Pass. Due to the existence of Jianmen Pass, there were almost no garrisons in Hanzhong, and Chai's 20,000 troops entered Hanzhong, like the autumn wind sweeping away the leaves, and in one day, it advanced hundreds of miles from Jianmen Pass to the south. In the late Han Dynasty, Zhang Luxiong lived in Hanzhong for more than 30 years, resisting Liu Zhang in the south and resisting Chang'an in the north, but in the hands of Song Jiang, he couldn't even defend it for two days.
Chengdu Mansion is like a boiling pot, people can be seen fleeing everywhere, even the soldiers in charge of patrolling the city have lost confidence, and some soldiers have even joined the ranks of the ruffians and have done things like sneaking and looting. There was a mourning in the Chengdu Mansion, and the people complained, and the children of the family who did not leave Chengdu also continued to attack the Chengdu Mansion and asked Wu Yong for an explanation. The Chai Twin Tigers hadn't been able to solve it, and Chai Yonghao was putting pressure on Hanzhong again, and Wu Yong didn't know what else he could do. There was a lot of noise outside, but the inside of the house was deserted, Wu Yong was doing it with a little lost soul, his hair was scattered, his eyes were blank, as if he had aged more than ten years in an instant. Chengdu Mansion can really still call on the soldiers and horses, can you persuade the Bashu Hao clan to help defend the city again, those children of the family are not a fool, when there are interests, it is easy to say anything, when there are no interests, you can not impress them even if you carry two boxes of gold ingots. asked himself over and over again, Wu Yong got only one answer, that is, he wanted to hold Chengdu Mansion, there was no possibility at all, and finally, Wu Yong still made a decision, that is, to withdraw.
Now that the Chai Twin Tigers are approaching Chengdu, it is not so easy to withdraw, but Wu Yong has already dealt with it. At night, the east gate of Chengdu suddenly opened, many people have already been afraid of the military disaster, has been making noise out of the city to flee, now the east gate opened, the panicked people rushed out, and then scattered and fled. In order to prevent the camp from being scattered by the chaotic people, Gao Hu ordered a large array in front of the camp, and many people who were panicked died in the hands of Gao Hu's soldiers. The chaotic people attracted the attention of the Gao Hu soldiers, but Wu Yong led his soldiers and horses to leave quietly from the west with their belongings. Wu Yong is still that Wu Yong, a series of blows, in the end still did not defeat him, at the most dangerous moment, he came up with the most effective idea, with the lives of tens of thousands of Chengdu people, but dragged the attention of the Chai army, this strategy, ruthless and vicious.
Gao Hu was dizzy by a group of chaotic people, but he was not stupid enough to forget his vigilance against Chengdu, "Quickly send someone to keep an eye on Chengdu to see if there is anything abnormal at the city gate." In addition, General Ye was notified and asked to approach Chengdu further. ”
The rebellious people in Chengdu were finally suppressed, not to mention countless deaths and injuries, and many people did not even know how they died. It's just that the news from Chengdu made Gao Hu feel a little refreshed, "General Gao, there is no movement in the east of Chengdu Mansion, and the city gate has not been closed since it was opened." General Ye's headquarters found signs of the remnants of Chengdu in the south, and has now sent people to catch up. ”
It wasn't until Ye Dahu sent someone to send a letter that Gao Hu fully understood, this time he was tricked by that Wu Yong again, but he could use the lives of tens of thousands of Chengdu people as bait, and this heart was really vicious, at least he Gao Hu couldn't do this kind of thing, "This old pedant, a dog from the shore, didn't blink his eyes when he did things that lacked morality, and informed General Chai overnight and told him that Chengdu Mansion had been taken." ”
Gao Hu was too lazy to chase Wu Yong, and the credit for occupying Chengdu seemed to be greater, and the road south of Chengdu Mansion was rugged and the mountains were long, and it was too difficult to trap Wu Yong, the old fox, that is, Ye Dahu's guy would enter the mountain at night. Gao Hu's soldiers and horses entered Chengdu overnight, and they did not encounter the slightest resistance, and those Bashu Hao clans who had already received the letter greeted Gao Hu's arrival in the way of welcoming Song Jiang. During this time, Chengdu can be said to have frequently changed the banner of the king, and it is the common people who suffer. As Gao Hu thought, Ye Dahu didn't gain anything, except for killing some remnants of the soldiers who fell behind, he didn't even find Wu Yong's shadow, and finally he could only return to Chengdu stupidly.
On the ninth day of the first month of the third year of Taikang, the Chai clan launched a series of wars such as Jianmen Pass, Lizhou, and Bazhou in less than ten days, and quickly took Chengdu Mansion, which also indicates that it is only a matter of time before the Chai clan takes the entire land of Bashu. In order to cope with the next situation, Xiao Zhiyun also came to Xiangyang from Bianliang, and after a day of rest, he rode to Jiangling Mansion. There are too many things in Bianliang at the moment, and it is impossible for Zhao Yougong to go to the Jingchu area, but he has been worried about Jingchu's movements in his heart. The Chai family made such a big move, and it had already spread all over the world, and even Zhao Fujin, who had been staying in the palace, had heard about it. Before the Lantern Festival, the moon hung high in the sky, the cold wind blew the treetops, the birds were gone, and the people drinking spirits under the moon dragged their long figures, looking lonely and lonely. Gently walking to the stone table, Zhao Fujin took the cloak from the maid's hand, draped it on Zhao Yougong's shoulder, and whispered, "Brother Ling, the little sister in Chengdu has also heard about it, since the matter has happened, what's the use of thinking so much, at least the little sister thinks that no matter what the Chai family does, it will still not be your opponent in the end." ”
For victory, Zhao Yougong has never lost confidence, but he is always a little unhappy in his heart, looking at the moon that is not yet full, he sighed silently, "Fourth sister, do you know how many variables the Chai family will bring to the future when they win Chengdu Mansion this time, hey, call and fight, who can get a little benefit in the end." Your sister Xin'er still gave me a lot of trouble in the end. ”
I'm afraid that only Zhao Fujin can feel the helpless pain in the world, Brother Ling has to fight with his mother and son, and in the end, there will be no winner. Just like the battle between Zhezong's lineage and his father's Duanwang lineage, in the end, Brother Ling didn't get the slightest joy, and the carriage of fate forcibly loaded everyone into it, whether he wanted to or not, he had to finish this road. Sister Xin'er may not really want this, otherwise, she would not fall in love with Brother Ling and give birth to a son. The battle has reached this point, and there are no winners for a long time, but there are many losers.
"Brother Ling, how good it would be if you were stupid and stupid, my little sister would rather watch you hide in the Chufang Building all day long and compete with the people in the high ya, at least we have been happy. You shouldn't blame Sister Xin'er, she also has a lot of helplessness, the surname Chai has bound too many people, just like we, as the children and grandchildren of the Zhao family, have to do something. Yesterday, the third brother also said that if he was asked to make a choice, he would choose you, not Chai Keyan. The Chai family and the Zhao family are already doomed! ”
Holding the gentle wrist of the fourth sister, like when she was a child, she drew a circle in her palm, and the moonlight was bright, reflecting the fourth sister's slightly red face. The two of them talked and laughed, and there was no further action, everyone knew that heart, but they were unwilling to break that warmth. The kind-hearted fourth sister, how much like the fairy in the Guanghan Palace, the moon is beautiful today, the osmanthus is in full bloom, and her figure is chasing the misty clouds.
Since coming to Jiangling Mansion, Xiao Zhiyun began to transfer troops, and the troops that first concentrated in Nanyang and Xiangyang went south in batches, enriching the troops in the Jingchu area, and the marines stationed in Jiangxia also re-landed ashore. The purpose of Xiao Zhiyun's action is very obvious, that is, to block the road to the east of Bashu, not only to prevent the Chai family, but also to trap Song Jiang. On the twelfth day of the first month of the third year of Taikang, Song Jiang, who had lost his foundation, retreated to Pengshui County, Qianzhou, southeast of Bashu, and retreated all the way from Dali to Pengshui. When coming to Pengshui, there are only more than 20,000 soldiers and horses under his command, on the thirteenth day of the first month, Wu Yong finally came to Pengshui after many dangers and obstacles, leading the remnants of the army to join Song Jiang, so far, Song Jiang forces have been completely trapped in the territory of Qianzhou, and there are only more than 30,000 soldiers and horses available. Wu Yong was able to bring too few people, which was not of much help to Song Jiang. And after the Chai clan occupies Chengdu Mansion and Hanzhong, how much time will Song Jiang leave? Dali is very smart, after recapturing Jianchang Mansion, it will no longer attack north, obviously, it is discussed with the Chai family, and the two sides cooperate to trap Song Jiang.
The atmosphere in Pengshui City was very strange, the people did not dare to go out, and the soldiers patrolling the city were also dish-faced, like a group of hopeless trapped beasts, doing their last dying struggle. Song Jiang was drinking, his head was full of gray hair, it was the end of the road, and the old man quickly climbed up to his face, now Song Jiang, his only thought is to live, just leave a life, what to dominate the world, what to dominate, what to heroic, all gone. Song Jiang has always been such a person, he is not Zhao Yougong, not Wanyan Zongwang and not Murong Fu, he has the pride to compete for the world, but he does not have the arrogance of the world, the world in Zhao Yougong's heart is the cold winter of the eastern sea and the northern country, the world in the eyes of Wanyan Zongwang is the vast grassland and the water town in the south of the Yangtze River, and the world in Murong Fu's heart is Xianbei Murong and returns to Dayan. But Song Jiang has never had a clear goal, he is the king and hegemon, and in the end it is just for himself to live a better life, so Song Jiang is an unqualified hero, a strong little person. Now, this little man has been beaten back to his original form, and he is not even as chic as when he passed the priesthood.
"Brother Wu, what should I do now, but there is still a way to live?" At this time, Song Jiang's words were really disappointing, and it was not until this moment that Wu Yong really saw through Song Jiang, it turned out that Song Jiang was not the real hero, he was just smarter and more ruthless than Chao Tianwang. If there is any regret medicine in the world, Wu Yong will not hesitate to eat two or three catties, and the most sorry thing in his life is King Chao.
"Brother Song, we can't go back to the Chai family, we just invaded Dali, and it is impossible for Dali to take us in, the only hope is in Jiangling Mansion, if we give up everything, we may be able to live!" Wu Yong came up with the last idea for Song Jiang, but he did his best to obey the destiny of heaven, and to this day, it seems that Song Jiang is not needed. But there was a bit of hope, Song Jiang was unwilling to give up, and in his pleading gaze, Wu Yong nodded slowly.
On the thirteenth day of the first month, Wu Yong, who arrived in Pengshui, did not rest, and rushed to Jiangling Mansion under Song Jiang's pleading, and after a long journey of a day, Wu Yong finally came to Jiangling City, the most prosperous city in Jingchu. The place is brilliant and the literary style is prosperous, and it is a place that many literati and ink writers yearn for. Entering Jiangling Mansion, Wu Yong was monitored by the **** soldiers, and now it is Xiao Zhiyun who is sitting in Jiangling Mansion, and all Wu Yong feels is pressure.
Jiangling Mansion, Wu Yong faced Xiao Zhiyun and many **** generals and told his intentions, and when the words fell, a burst of unbridled laughter sounded in the hall. The one who laughed out loud was none other than Xiao Zhiyun, the owner of Jiangling Mansion. Xiao Zhiyun's beautiful eyes were contemptuous, revealing a bit of mockery, this Song Jiang really wanted to live and wanted to go crazy. If it was five years ago, Song Jiang said that he wanted to take refuge, maybe he would have considered one or two, but now, even if he paid a certain price, he would not have surrendered Song Jiang. How many **** soldiers died in the hands of Song Jiang, especially Zhang Gong's death, Zhang Gong is the leader of many **** soldiers, he is too important in the hearts of the **** soldiers, if Song Jiang is surrendered at this time, wouldn't it chill the hearts of the soldiers, not to mention, Zhang Gong is still the regent's father-in-law, asking him to surrender, isn't it a joke?
Even if there are no these reasons, Xiao Zhiyun will not agree to surrender Song Jiang, at this time Song Jiang is a mad dog with no way out, after the exodus incident a year ago, the Chai family is also determined not to take Song Jiang in, as for Daliguo, he doesn't dare to accept it if he wants to, Song Jiang stays in Qianzhou, there is only a dead end. Yes, Song Jiang is a mad dog waiting for death, why not let this mad dog bite Chai Shi fiercely before he dies? Let Chai and Song Jiang bite it, but it's very good, this is also Song Jiang's last value.
"Wu Yong, you go back and tell Song Jiang that he is already a dead man, if he can drag the Chai family and bite it, this concubine promises to make the Song family live a very easy life, if he doesn't agree, not only will he die, but the Song family will not be left behind!"
Xiao Zhiyun was ruthless with a cold face, like scolding a beggar, looking at Wu Yong's distorted expression, everyone felt very relieved. After Xiao Zhiyun finished speaking, the youngest Yue Fei stood up, raised his eyebrows and snorted coldly, "You old pedant, don't get out of here, let my princess take you in, it's crazy." Let Song Jiang wash his neck, his head, Chai doesn't want it, Yue is not afraid of dirty hands. ”
Wu was furious, but he was helpless, what could he do, this is Ding****, they have arrogant capital. Today's Song Jiang forces are not farts in the eyes of Ding ****. (To be continued.) )
