Chapter 813: Bloody Battle of Pingchuan

If Heaven gives us a favor, where does that favor come from? Zhao Yougong has always believed that all the glory is his own, counting on the sky, it is better to expect the beggars to make money, the majestic and vast Pingchuan grassland, looking at the mountains and mountains in the distance, suddenly added infinite heroism. The team is still advancing, and it will be able to reach the periphery of Pingchuan tomorrow, what conspiracy and tricks will Li Ziqian have waiting for the ****?

Wu Jue's body has not been found yet, but for Zhao Yougong, this is not good news at all, on the battlefield of Nuoda, are there still few people with no bones? If a person goes missing, there are only two results, either he becomes a deserter or there are no bones, how can a person like Wu Jue be a deserter? Therefore, he crisscrossed the battlefield, and finally ended up in a wilderness. It's painful to die and not be able to find a resting place. Sanniang pulled Mu Wanqing aside and whispered something, Mu Wanqing's expression at this time was grim, rarely serious, "Sister Wan'er, I'm afraid my sister won't have time to accompany the officials when you get to Pingchuan, you have to watch him well, no matter what the battle situation is, you must not let him take risks." In addition, take good care of his body, the princess handed over the official to us, no matter what, we have to send him back to Chang'an safely. ”

Mu Wanqing nodded heavily, how could she not know? Zhu Lian is dignified and magnificent, after entering the harem, he has never been embarrassed by anyone, this time he came to Goryeo, Zhu Lian did not point to Azhu and Ajiu, but ordered her Mu Wanqing and Sanniang, just hoping that they could guard Zhao Yougong at a critical time.

Pingchuan City, located in the southeast of Xichuan, is backed by layers of mountains. The former Pyongcheon Castle was not a military fortress. But since Li Ziqian fled here. Only one thing was done, that is, to open the mountain and take stones, and constantly strengthen the city defense, by the middle of March, Pingchuan City, has reached five zhang high, and the inner wall has been strengthened a lot. Living in Pingchuan City, Li Ziqian is not too smooth. He has been like a big stone in his heart, although Pingchuan is too peaceful at the moment, but he deeply knows that the **** will come over soon, maybe other people are very confident in the city defense of Pingchuan City, but Li Ziqian does not dare to take it lightly, what about the city defense of the royal capital, it is not that Zhao Yougong skillfully tricked and quickly took it down, and the king of Xichuan Bengu. There is absolutely no hope for it. As a last resort, the one surnamed Wang will not send a single soldier to Pingchuan. But Li Ziqian didn't want to think about it. Even if Wang Bengu really sent troops to Pingchuan, would he dare to let Wang's soldiers and horses enter the city?

On March 19, the gate of Pingchuan City suddenly closed slowly, and the heavy iron gate made a creaking sound, which made people panic, but the city gate was closed too early, and it was not yet Shen Shi. With the closure of the city gate, all the soldiers and horses stationed in the eastern city poured into the city, and there was also a depressing atmosphere in the city lord's mansion, and the scouts bent over, not daring to miss a trace, "King, the Han people came from Gaoyue Town, and the number is about 25,000 people, but what is incomprehensible is that there are many coffins carried by the Han army, it is estimated that there are no less than 500 coffins, and everyone has a white belt around their waists, and there are white flags hanging on the side of the military flag. ”

The generals listened to the scout's report, everyone looked solemn, and unconsciously felt an invisible pressure, there was no shortage of smart people in the hall, the Han people carried the coffin, that was to show a kind of determination, the coffin was carried here, someone must lie down, either the people of Pingchuan City or the Han people, but why did the Han people make such a big determination to carry the coffin. Li Ziqian frowned, Cui Zhuo was also puzzled, and asked out loud, "Who in the Han army died?" ”

"I didn't find it, but I have already sent someone to inquire, it seems that the Han people were hit hard in the Central Plains, and a Han general named Wu Jue died in the battle in the Central Plains" It is not easy for the scout to hear this, Li Ziqian did not embarrass the scout anymore, and waved his hand to signal him to withdraw. Li Ziqian has heard of the name Wu Jue, this person is one of the eight tigers in Guanzhong, a handsome and talented person, who followed King Jian Zhao in his early years, and later was loyal to Zhao Yougong, the son of Zhao Ru, and is definitely a general of the Chu Wangfu. I heard that he has a close relationship with Zhao Yougong and others, like brothers, and now the Han army has white flags, and everyone is wrapped with white belts, and their relationship is really unusual.

The Han people came with the coffin, making it clear that they were going to fight to the death, and if they didn't deal with it well, he Li Ziqian would really die in those coffins. Cui Zhuo was originally a prince, Li Ziqian was not afraid that Cui Zhuo was fake, but the current situation had to be discussed with Cui Zhuo, and the two of them discussed it before Li Ziqian issued an order, "Sun Yundu, you lead people to guard the southern city, no matter what the situation, you are not allowed to go out of the city." Feng Ti, you are responsible for coordinating all departments, and strictly ordering all departments to save arrows and get out the dung soup prepared before, if the Han people dare to attack the city, kill their sharpness. ”

"Oh" everyone received the order, Li Fengti has been holding back his anger, Wang was beaten by the Han people, not to mention the grievances in his heart, those dung soup was deliberately prepared by him for the Han people, those dung soup was boiled with feces, and a lot of medicine was added to it, which was sure to be poured on the Han people, so that they would never forget it for a lifetime. When the city was still discussing, the **** had arrived at the periphery of Pingchuan, and the army was stationed in an open place five miles south of Pingchuan, climbing the mountain, Zhao Yougong looked at the Pingchuan City in front of him, the white clouds were long, and he was said to be located under the high mountains, this is really a strong city, how much did it cost to storm Pingchuan? The combination of inside and outside will definitely not work, Cui Zhuo has just suffered a loss, will Li Ziqian be fooled again?

After looking at Pingchuan City, Zhao Yougong made up his mind, that is, he must not fight with Li Ziqian at the head of the city, but fight outside the city, so how to lure Li Ziqian out to fight? After two vicious battles in the royal capital, Li Ziqian was much smarter, the army came, this old boy closed the city gate directly, and even saved the steps of the general, and the attitude was clear that he wanted to defend the city to the death. Back to the big tent, Gao Zhong and the others had already consciously waited here, Shi Wengong couldn't help but say with some complaints, "Your Highness, the last general has seen Pingchuan City, to be honest, now this Pingchuan is not worse than Hanyang at all, if you want to attack it, it is very unwise." ”

Shi Wengong said this, and also had the meaning of admonishment, he was deeply afraid that His Royal Highness would be really stimulated by the death of General Wu, and ordered to storm Pingchuan City at all costs. Zhao Yougong smiled faintly. He nodded slightly. He was holding back his anger. But he hasn't lost his mind yet, "From the current point of view, Pingchuan City is not easy to attack, so it can only be outwitted." ”

For some reason, hearing Zhao Yougong say this, all the generals breathed a sigh of relief. The next thing is much simpler, it comes down to one problem, that is, how to lure Li Ziqian out of the city to face the battle. Li Ziqian, this old boy, has learned to be smart, and he is willing to be a turtle with a shrunken head, you really can't do anything about him. The generals said a word to me, each with a strange plan, but in the end Zhao Yougong vetoed it, these rough men, the way they came up with is nothing more than to scold the battle generals, there is no feasible way, I really miss the days when Dongfang Jin was there, and the big officials were there. These things don't need to worry about him Zhao at all, just the brains of the big officials. As soon as the two of them rolled their eyes, they had a bad idea. Everyone quarreled for a long time without an idea, and finally Gao Zhong was a little annoyed by the noise, slapped the table with a big slap, and shouted, "What are you arguing about, don't forget that Your Highness is sick, can you stand such noise?" In my opinion, why do you have to fight Pingchuan, Xichuan is not far away, let's go to fight Xichuan, let Li Ziqian and an old boy stare dryly. ”

As soon as Gao Chong's words came out, all the generals were stunned and stared at each other, and even Tang Yunzhou, the Goryeo general, opened his mouth, rolled his eyes, and obediently said, General Gao is really not a mortal, this can be said, as long as the people who lead the troops know what the result will be if they don't hit the periphery first. To put it nicely, this is called attacking the hinterland, and the center is blooming, and to say that it is unpleasant, this is called entering the pocket and being surrounded by people. Pingchuan top in front of Xichuan, if you bypass Pingchuan, directly attack Xichuan, then the army is sandwiched between Pingchuan and Xichuan, Li Ziqian as long as he sends troops to Pingchuan to cut off the back road of the army back to the royal capital, the **** soldiers will be under siege. Leading troops to fight, the most taboo thing is this, why did General Gao say such things with his mouth? As soon as Gao Chong's big mouth came out, it was really amazing, and in the face of everyone's eyes, Gao Chong accepted it with peace of mind, as long as these people were quiet, they didn't see His Highness's face a little white. As for how unreliable it is to attack Xichuan, how can Gao Chong not know that he has been on the battlefield for so many years, of course he knows the risks involved, seeing that everyone is quiet, he ran to the bookcase and said to Zhao Yougong, "Your Highness, in fact, you should understand what Lao Gao means." ”

Zhao Yougong didn't answer immediately, but pondered with his eyebrows, what Gao Chong said just now sounded very unreliable at first glance, and even a bit of a pit, but it was not unreasonable to think about it carefully. The meaning of Gao Chong's words, Zhao Yougong is also very clear, in fact, Gao Chong is not saying that he must fight Xichuan City, but that since Li Ziqian is defending Pingchuan and has no way to start, can he not start from the side of Xichuan Wang Bengu? If something goes wrong on Wang Bengu's side, can Li Ziqian still sit still? No matter how difficult it is, it is definitely an idea, patting Gao Chong's shoulder, Zhao Yougong comforted him, "Changke, don't be impatient, this king naturally understands, you mean to lure the snake out of the hole through Wang Bengu?" But have you thought about it, without enough bait, the snake will never come out. ”

"I don't know this general, anyway, the general thinks, Wang Bengu has been running Xichuan for so many years, there is always something that can't be let go, let's just find the weakness and hit it hard, not afraid that Wang Bengu will not ask Li Ziqian for help. Li Ziqian is not a fool, he will not sit back and watch Wang Bengu fall, it will not benefit him at all, but where to fight and how to fight is still up to His Royal Highness to decide. ”

Gao Zhong opened his two big eyes, looking loyal, the corners of Zhao Yougong's mouth trembled, and he secretly scolded in his heart, I really want to beat Gao Changke into panda eyes with one punch, and after talking for a long time, the most important thing was omitted and thrown directly to him Zhao Yougong. But it's quite like thinking about it, I used to treat the Oriental officials like this, and when I can't think of a way, I should be the shopkeeper. Waving his hand, he motioned for Gao Zhong to quickly stand aside, and then asked Tang Yunzhou, "General Tang, if this king has a pair of Wang Bengu to induce Li Ziqian to send troops and ambush him halfway, what do you have any good ideas?" ”

The generals in the army, I'm afraid that no one is more familiar with the Goryeo issue than Tang Yunzhou, Zhao Yougong asked, but Tang Yunzhou shook his head, "Your Highness, the last general really doesn't know how to start this matter, but why is Your Highness willing to go far?" Why don't you ask Her Majesty? His Majesty had contact with Wang Bengu in his early years and knew a lot about his affairs. ”

"Huh?" Zhao Yougong was surprised, it turned out that Kim Tae-hee and Wang Bengu still had a relationship. Soon Zhao Yougong found Kim Tae-hee in the west tent, because of the army, Kim Tae-hee also changed into a red tassel military uniform like Sanniang, but this military uniform was worn on her to see a little heroic, but it was a little charming. When Cho Yougong arrived, Kim Tae-hee was also puzzled, and after hearing the intention, she couldn't help but think hard.

"Your Highness, the slave family knows a little, but whether it can work or not depends on His Highness's own. Wang Bengu is insatiable and very cautious, he has a problem when he is a child, and he never puts money around. Therefore, the slave family thought that although Wang Bengu was guarding Xichuan, his family wealth must not be in Xichuan, so even if something happened to Xichuan later, what family wealth was used as capital, he could still make a comeback. ”

Kim Tae-hee said slowly, mixed with his own speculation, "Your Highness, in the early years, the slave family went to the royal capital in disguise and had contact with that Wang Bengu, and the one he trusted most was not his brother Wang Benyang, but the servant Gao Yan, who had followed him for many years. A few years ago, Gao Yan was sent to Anzhou, but Anzhou is not very important, why do you need Gao Yan to garrison? ”

Zhao Yougong gradually smiled, in fact, he wanted to know if Wang Bengu's family wealth was in Anzhou, it was very simple, he only needed to fight a dozen to know. Immediately, Zhao Yougong found Shi Wengong and ordered him to immediately send troops to Anzhou to see how Wang Bengu reacted.

In Pingchuan City, Li Ziqian waited hard, but what he was waiting for was to send troops to Anzhou, so far, Li Ziqian's whole person was confused, didn't Zhao Yougong carry the coffin and fight to the death, what about the bloody battle in Pingchuan? Grandma's, every time she fights with someone Zhao, she gets dizzy.

"What the hell is going on? How did the Han people get to Anzhou? What's the use of asking for a broken place? Li Ziqian stood in the general's mansion and roared constantly, he was ready to meet the head of the **** battle city, the Han people carried the coffin, could there be other problems, but something happened. Cui Zhuo's face was also gloomy, in fact, they were not afraid of the Han people attacking Anzhou, that place was not important, if they occupied it, they would occupy it, the problem was that they didn't know why the Han people attacked, and they couldn't even figure out the other party's intentions, which was the most terrible, because it meant that the Han people would hang their noses next.

"King, the Han people attacked Anzhou, will it have anything to do with Wang Bengu?"

"What will it matter? Anzhou's broken place, Wang Bengu didn't care about it at all, the Han people beat Anzhou, I'm afraid Wang Bengu won't even blink his eyes, how can he send troops out of the city? ”

Li Ziqian rubbed his forehead, only feeling that his head hurt, and it was really uncomfortable to be kept in the dark. (To be continued.) )
