Chapter 886: Incredible Civil Strife
Wu Liang, who returned to his residence, exuded a feeling of helplessness all over his body, His Royal Highness really didn't let go of the opportunity at all, and now he has successfully provoked Tian Xingmao's suspicions, and I am afraid that there will be a series of actions next. Wu Liang didn't think about convincing Tian Xingmao, this kind of thing is getting darker and darker, and talking too much will only make Tian Xingmao more worried. At this time, Wu Liang was really looking forward to the **** coming to attack the city quickly, as long as he hit the **** hard, he would be able to reverse Tian Xingmao's opinion. If you want to defend Wuzhou City, you can't fall out with Tian Xingmao, so no matter how big the contradiction between the two sides is, you must still rely on Tian Xingmao. In Tian Xingmao's camp, he also had his own conspiracy, and after leaving the city, Tian Xingmao recruited several henchmen under his command to the front of him and discussed it closely, "Wu Liang hid from us to go out of the city, what kind of medicine is sold in this gourd, none of us know, if we really discuss it with the surname Zhao, then we will become a credit book in the eyes of others." Therefore, you have to guard against Wu Liang, Li Chengren, you take someone to keep an eye on Wu Liang's side, as long as there is any abnormal movement, come to Tongchuan immediately, if the surname Wu dares to treat us as fools, we will have a lose-lose situation with him. ”
"Yes, Brother Tian rest assured, there are more than 20,000 of our brothers in Wuzhou City, don't be afraid of the surname Wu, we have long seen him unpleasant, a person who is set to **** over, his eyes grow to the top of his head all day long, who is pretending to show it" Several people under Tian Xingmao's command suddenly hated the same enemy, obviously everyone didn't like Wu Liang very much, when Chai Jin left, they all thought that Tian Xingmao would be in charge of Yunzhong, who would have thought that Wu Liang would take Chai Jin's place. Tian Xingmao can also be regarded as the elder of the Chai family, with a respected status and huge power in Guangnan, still above Ye Dahu, and he was crushed by a person who surrendered to ****, and he couldn't be happy in his heart.
In the middle of November of the second year of Taikang, after conquering Yunzhong, Xiao Conan and the Siberian army also rushed to the vicinity of Wuzhou City, Zhao Yougong did not dare to delay, Xiao Conan's soldiers and horses were too few, if the delay was too long, it was easy to be bitten by the people of Wuzhou City. A total of 110,000 **** attacked Wuzhou from the two directions of Yunzhong and Fengzhou. This scene is so similar to the scene many years ago, except that this time the besieging side has been replaced by a fixed ****. The soldiers and horses of the two sides joined forces, Zhao Yougong had an urgent discussion, and Dongfang Jin answered the discussed plans in detail one by one, "At present, there are more than 50,000 elite soldiers in Wuzhou City, and the baggage is sufficient, and the arrows accumulated in Fengzhou and the clouds have also been transferred here, so the pressure we are facing is very great. ”
With Dongfang Jin's elaboration, the faces of the generals of the Dingguo Army are not very good-looking, and there are not a few people here who have experienced the bloody battle of Wuzhou City, especially Pang He and Yelu Dashi are even more memorable, when hundreds of thousands of Xijing elites besieged Wuzhou, they were blocked for several days, and finally ended up with the whole army annihilated. Seeing that everyone's mood was a little heavy, Dongfang Jin changed his words and said with a smile, "But it's not just bad news, there is still good news." As far as we know, the city of Wuzhou is mainly divided into three forces, the first force is the border army under the command of Wu Liang, with a number of about 15,000 people, the second force is Tian Xingmao's Guangnan soldiers and horses, with more than 20,000 people, and the third force is the old department of the Chai family, most of whom are Zhongyuan brothers, with more than 10,000 people. These three forces are not of the same mind, especially Wu Liang and Tian Xingmao, according to the spies, after Chai Jin left, Tian Xingmao was bound to win the position of the envoy in the clouds, but Chai Keyan transferred Wu Liang to replace Chai Jin. Therefore, from this point of view, Tian Xingmao has long seen Wu Liang unpleasantly, a few days ago, His Royal Highness met with Wu Liang again, and successfully provoked Tian Xingmao's suspicions, as long as this point is used well, it will definitely bring us great benefits. From tomorrow, Xiao Conan and Lin Chong will be responsible for attacking the defense area where Tian Xingmao is stationed, and they must fight Tian Xingmao to the death and fight hard. The rest of the people were all concentrated in the west and feinted to attack Wu Liang's defense area, but they must not create momentum for Wu Liang's subordinates, not killing. ”
Everyone has been leading the army for many years, and they quickly understood Dongfang Jin's intentions, this trick to sow discord is really mysterious, if it is done well, Tian Xingmao and Wu Liang will be hell if they don't have a dispute. On November 13, Ding **** began to attack Wuzhou City from three sides, Lin Chong and Xiao Conan led 20,000 troops to storm the city gate from the east and south. And in the west of Wuzhou, the situation seems to be even more terrible, there are 60,000 troops all gathered in the west, there is no need to attack the city, the momentum of the crowd swallowing the sky is overwhelming, the west city wall is huge, and you can hear how inspiring the siege is in the east. Tian Xingmao, who was in charge of commanding Nancheng, was also a lot relieved after hearing the heavy sound of fighting coming from Xicheng, it seemed that he was really wrong, Wu Liang, this kid didn't do anything outside of eating. However, it is also a good thing to concentrate forces to storm the west, and it is also good to weaken Wu Liang's forces. In the final analysis, Wu Liang has to bear a lot of responsibility for Zhang Gong's death, and it is not surprising that he will concentrate his forces to find trouble. There was a lot of pressure in the west, but Tian Xingmao strictly ordered all the departments not to rush to help, making it clear that he wanted to consume Wu Liang's forces.
Wuzhou City is worthy of being the first fortress in the northwest established by Da Liao that year, and after a day of strong attack, Ding **** was stunned that he did not shake Wuzhou at all, and seeing that it was getting late, Ding **** could only withdraw one after another. The two sides boycotted the battle, cleaned up the battlefield, and looked at the bloody scene at the head of the city, Tian Xingmao felt a lot of pressure, just one day of attack and defense, his sons and daughters lost more than 4,000 people, and if they continue to fight like this, how long can they hold on?
At night, Li Chengren ran to the tent out of breath and said a few words in his ear, Tian Xingmao's expression changed greatly when he heard it, and he couldn't help asking, "Are you sure?" This kind of thing can't be joked about, otherwise, none of us can afford the consequences. ”
"Brother Tian, how dare the little brother lie to you, the Xicheng offensive is huge, and even fools can hear it. However, Lin Chong and Xiao Conan stormed the southern city wall, and they rushed to the city head many times, but in the west, Ding**** did not break through the city head from beginning to end. If Brother Tian doesn't believe it, just go to the west city wall to see it yourself, the aisle is very clean, that's nearly 60,000 troops, one person spits, it's enough for the defenders of Xicheng to stand it, how can it be impossible to break through the defense of the city, according to common sense, the city head should be the West City with the most losses. And the younger brother has inquired, do you know how many soldiers and horses have been lost in Xicheng this day, not even a thousand people, big brother, do you think this is normal? ”
With Li Chengren's description, the corners of Tian Xingmao's mouth trembled, and his heart was cold, he felt that a huge conspiracy was coming to his head, and it turned out that such a big battle in Xicheng was all acting. If it was really a tragic offensive and defensive battle, how could the casualties on both sides be so few, in the face of tens of thousands of troops, the loss of only a thousand people, Wu Liang's command was all heavenly soldiers? Until this time, Tian Xingmao still didn't dare to assert that although he didn't look down on Wu Liang, he had to rely on Wu Liang at this time, because once the trouble broke out, Wuzhou couldn't hold it, and everyone would not benefit. With a long sigh of relief, Tian Xingmao instructed Li Chengren, "Don't make a noise in advance, follow me to Xicheng to have a look." ”
Tian Xingmao still had a trace of luck at this time, hoping that everything was fake, but hoping that Wu Liang had been wronged. When he came to the West City, he did not go to the head of the city, but came to the highest battlement in the corner. Holding a clairvoyant mirror, closely observing the situation outside the city, the moonlight is clear today, the situation outside the city is clear at a glance, in the clairvoyant mirror, everything is very clear, and finally found a trace of abnormality, not far from the west in the artemisia grass, there are many soldiers and horses in ambush. He has led the troops for many years, whether there are soldiers and horses in ambush, Tian Xingmao can still judge it, the irregular trembling of the artemisia grass, and the occasional flash of bright light, all of which indicate that there is an ambush of soldiers and horses in this artemisia grass. At this time, everyone retreated and rested, what to do in ambush soldiers and horses here, there is only one explanation, this army is waiting for a signal to cooperate with the people in the city to attack the city, so the people in this city are self-evident, can there be a second person besides Wu Liang?
The more Tian Xingmao thought about it, the more scared he became, but he put down the clairvoyant mirror and quietly instructed Li Chengren, "You go back quickly, tell the brothers to pick up the guy, and take down Wu Liang as quickly as possible." Hmph, since the surname Wu is not well-intentioned, then let's rush in front of him, Wuzhou City can't hold it anyway, so let's pull a cushion first. ”
Tian Xingmao had already concluded that Wu Liang had defected to the enemy, even if Wu Liang knelt in front of him at this time, he would not believe it, and Tian Xingmao's people acted quickly. As for Wu Liang, he was also worried about the battle during the day, the offensive and defensive battle during the day was too strange, and it was clear that he was provoking the relationship between himself and Tian Xingmao. Wu Liang thought that if he solved the problem, he didn't expect that the change would come so quickly, and from the moment Tian Xingmao's troops and horses stormed the city lord's mansion, the entire Wuzhou fell into civil strife. Tian Xingmao felt that the first strike was the strongest, and the first attack of the soldiers and horses under his command was the Xicheng camp, in the face of the attack of others, Wu Liang's troops could not stand still, and rose up to resist, at first the war was limited to the Xicheng camp, and gradually the war spread to the whole city. This is Tian Xingmao's shortcoming, Tian Xingmao was born in a wealthy family, but he was not an orthodox general, and he made a big mistake in suppressing the rebellion. Even if you want to kill Wu Liang, you should quietly control the City Lord's Mansion and kill Wu Liang, if you make such a big fuss, there will be no room for maneuver at all, and Wu Liang will have no other choice.
"Report, General Wu, Tian Xingmao's people have come in, now the city has become a mess, even General Mu Lian's soldiers and horses have been impacted, General Mu Lian asked to withdraw to the vicinity of the City Lord's Mansion" Wu Liang had a miserable smile on his face, his fists were clenched tightly, telling the anger in his heart, why is there such a stupid person as Tian Xingmao, even if he wants to kill him Wu Liang, do you need to make such a big mess, and now even Mu Lian's soldiers and horses have been affected, so are there still people in the city who are at ease guarding the city? It's over, everything is over, such a strong city wall in Wuzhou was destroyed in the hands of his own people. Wu Liang picked up the sword and said angrily, "Tell Mu Lian to pull his people to the periphery of the City Lord's Mansion, even if someone Wu dies today, he will first do Tian Xingmao's idiot." ”
Mu Lian is an authentic son of the Chai family, he has nothing to do with Wu Liang and others, of course, Tian Xingmao has always coveted the position above his head, and Mu Lian is also clear, but if you want to say that Wu Liang will join the enemy, Mu Lian still doesn't believe it. Long before coming to Yunzhong, the Queen Mother explained that you can trust Wu Liang in everything, don't worry, the Queen Mother's vision can still be trusted. But Mu Lian didn't expect that the situation would evolve to such a point, without warning, Tian Xingmao actually launched a large-scale mutiny, this surnamed Tian, didn't he want to ruin the good situation in Wuzhou, he was really a Nanban fool. Mu Lian gave up the defense area, and withdrew to the city lord's mansion according to Wu Liang's order, and the two sides joined forces to attack Tian Xingmao's soldiers and horses on the street, and were attacked by the two forces before and after, Tian Xingmao shouted angrily, pointing at Mu Lian's breach and scolding, "Mu Lian, you are a fool, the surname Wu has already voted for ****, you still help him beat Lao Tzu, are you blinded by lard." ”
Being scolded for being a fool, can Mu Lian not be angry, but he still hopes that the two sides can sit down and talk, after all, guarding Wuzhou is the most important thing, "General Tian, listen to the words of the last general, no matter what, put down the sword soldiers, you can talk." Whether General Wu defected to the enemy or not, who can prove it, but if General Tian insists on going his own way again, it will be tens of thousands of sons and daughters in Wuzhou. ”
Tian Xingmao was laughed at angrily, how could there be a fool like Mu Lian in the world, everyone must be **** ambushed outside the city, and Mu Lian is still blind to help Wu Liang do things. The two sides are arguing, the war is getting more and more intense, and the **** who has been waiting for a long time will naturally not let go of this great opportunity, when the civil strife in Wuzhou is fierce, it blatantly launched a fierce attack on the north gate, and the unguarded Beicheng was quickly taken down by the **** special operations battalion, along the north gate, a large number of **** fish penetrated, and the impregnable Wuzhou City was captured in this incredible way, who would have thought about it?
Ding **** entered the city from the north gate, and killed the soldiers and horses of the Chai clan when he saw them, and the first thing to suffer was Wu Liang's department stationed in the north, and he had to resist Tian Xingmao's people, and he had to guard against Ding ****, and within half an hour, the entire Beida camp was scattered. At this point, Tian Xingmao also tragically discovered that he was convicted of being a monkey, and Wu Liang really did not surrender to the enemy. What makes people laugh and cry is that the three forces that were fighting hard just now have reunited again, but Wu Liang has no more energy, since the **** has attacked, what if you want to drive it out again, dreaming?
With the extension of Ding**** to the east and west sides of Wuzhou, the offensive was like a tide, and the Chai clan could not resist at all, after losing most of the defense area, Wu Liang had to make a difficult decision, all the soldiers and horses withdrew from Wuzhou and retreated to the side pass. In fact, if you lose Wuzhou, even if you retreat to the side pass, it is not of much significance, but the instinct to survive supports the Chai soldiers to flee north. (To be continued.) )
