Chapter 522: Tiger Hou's Secret Mission
Yang Songnu couldn't figure out why Yang Jun and Yang Guo would suddenly attack the city regardless of losses, after all, the two of them were potential opponents, as long as they died, the two of them would become each other's biggest opponents, why not take this opportunity to consider preserving their strength?
"Cousin, what's the use of talking about this now, the top priority at the moment is to find a way to defend the city as much as possible!" Liang Shiwang reminded loudly.
Yang Songnu nodded, and said: "Immediately transfer the 1,000 reserve troops in the city to the direction of the West Gate, you bring 500 personal soldiers, and after a while, follow me to reinforce the North Gate." ”
"Yes, cousin, I'll arrange it." King Liang shook his fists and turned to mobilize his troops.
After King Liang Shi left, Yang Song Nu was anxious to turn around, and several cronies beside him were also busy back and forth in Qiuchi Mansion like ants on a hot pot.
At this time, only Huang Fuming's expression was calm, and there was no sense of nervousness and fear, the more fierce the battle in Qiu Chi's country, the better his task was completed.
At this moment, what Huang Fuming was thinking about the most was how to get out, leave the dangerous place of Xiabiancheng as much as possible, and return to Nanzheng City to return to Hua'an.
Yang Songnu, who was in a hurry, couldn't help but be a little surprised when he saw Huang Fuming's calm face and no sense of nervousness, paused, and hurriedly stepped forward and asked: "Now that the situation in the city is deteriorating, what good countermeasures can the military advisor have to help this prince tide over the difficulties." After speaking, he looked at Huang Fuming expectantly.
When Huangfu heard this, he frowned and said softly: "Why worry about the lord, as long as our army can hold out for three or five days, as soon as the reinforcements of the Jin State arrive." Aren't the rebels defeated? After speaking, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
In fact, Huang Fuming naturally knew that Hua'an would not rescue Yang Songnu, and the reason why he said this was to be sarcastic about Yang Songnu, and to find an opportunity for his escape.
When Yang Songnu heard this, his stomach was immediately full of bitter water, he paused, and said softly: "The military advisor doesn't know, the cronies sent to Nanzheng have returned, saying that the Jin army is not well prepared. Soldiers lacked weapons and armor. It may take some days before the army can be raised, but our army is afraid that it will not be able to wait for that time. After speaking, he looked anxious.
Huangfu Ming smiled and said softly: "How can the lord believe this kind of pretext, the Jin army has tens of thousands of troops. How can there be a lack of weapons? This is clearly a deliberate evasion. ”
"What. The Jin army deliberately shirked and refused to rescue our army. Yang Songnu was shocked when he heard this, though. He had a hunch about this, but after Huang Fuming said this, he completely felt that it was true.
"Could it be that the sincerity of this duke is not enough, and the appetite of the generals of the Jin army is inevitably too great!" Yang Songnu said angrily.
Huang Fuming shook his head, looked at Yang Songnu with an angry face, and said, "The lord sent a small personal soldier to deliver the letter, obviously not taking the generals of the Jin army in his eyes!" It was inevitable that the generals of the Jin army would be angry. ”
Yang Songnu was shocked when he heard this, slapped his forehead, and realized: "I see, my father is really confused!" Why did such a small person be sent? In the opinion of the military advisor, how should my father remedy it now? ”
Seeing that Yang Songnu completely believed what he said, Huang Fuming thought for a moment, and said: "Lord, the so-called use of people is not suspicious and suspicious, he is a full Shuzhong person, and many officials in Nanzheng are acquainted, just with the three inches of his tongue, he must be able to say that the generals of the Jin army will be mobilized to send troops to reinforce our army, and it depends on whether the lord can trust him." After speaking, he looked at Yang Songnu with a sincere face.
Seeing that Huangfu was sincere in his words and considered himself everywhere, Yang Songnu couldn't help but trust him a little more, and after thinking for a long time, he asked: "The military advisor is really sure that he can persuade the generals of the Jin army to reinforce our army." ”
"Rest assured, the lord is absolutely foolproof." Huang Fuming said confidently.
Yang Songnu sighed and said softly, "Okay! My father will send you to Nanzheng, you wait for a while, and wait for my father to prepare a letter. After speaking, he walked into the study next to him and began to write to Hua'an.
Seeing that Yang Songnu was completely led by his own nose, Huang Fuming felt very happy, as long as he left Xiafen City in Shun, he would be safe, and as for the follow-up development of Qiuchi's domestic situation, he could not do anything.
Soon, Yang Songnu wrote a letter, put it in an envelope, handed it to Huang Fuming, and advised: "The city is in danger, and the military division must do his best to persuade the generals of the Jin army to send troops to reinforce our army!" ”
Huang Fuming took the letter and replied confidently: "Don't worry, the lord can rest assured, the fastest three days, the slowest five days, the reinforcements will definitely arrive in Xiafen City, and I hope that the lord will work hard to hold on for a few days, waiting for reinforcements." ”
"Okay, after three or five days' work, my father can still hold it, and the military advisor will go and come back quickly." Yang Songnu ordered.
"Take care, lord, farewell." Huang Fuming clasped his fists and saluted, and led a group of wise men to leave the Qiuchi Mansion and run towards the east gate.
Not long after leaving the Qiu Chi Mansion, Cong Shi Huhou stopped with five Cong Shi Lerma, and Huang Fu Ming didn't understand what was going on, so he hurriedly gestured and asked.
Hu Hou responded that there was a more important task that he needed to complete, and asked Huang Fuming to lead half of the Congshi back to Nanzheng first, Huang Fuming asked what important task it was, and Hu Hou refused to answer.
Seeing that Hu Hou had more important tasks, and he still refused to tell himself, Huang Fu Ming was suspicious in his heart, Hu Hou's task, needless to say, must be a task assigned by Hua An himself, what is the important task, even he can't know, is Hua An not confident enough in himself.
Huang Fu Ming frowned and thought for a moment, pulled the reins of his horse with both hands, and led the remaining five or six smart men to ride their horses in the direction of the east gate, after leaving the east gate, Huang Fu Ming breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately ran at full speed in the direction of South Zhengcheng.
In the mansion of the Duke of Qiuchi, King Liang Shiwang gathered all the five hundred personal soldiers and asked Yang Songnu for his life, Yang Songnu did not say a word, and immediately led Liang Shiwang and five hundred personal soldiers to reinforce in the direction of the north gate.
At this time, the fierce battle was raging in the direction of the north gate, and the rebellious army of the Yang State had launched several rounds of attacks in a row, and the corpses of the dead soldiers could be seen everywhere above and below the city wall, and the piles of burning flames increased the tension of the battlefield.
Because Yang Guo has made up his mind to storm the city, Yang An is also quite brave in battle, therefore, the rebel army is gradually in the upper hand, there are more and more soldiers to attack the city wall of the city, but they are all beaten down by the death squad organized by the general of the Royal Forest Army, but in general, the city wall at the north gate of the city is as dangerous as an egg.
"Soldiers, defend the walls for me." Just when the two sides were in the midst of a fierce battle, Yang Songnu arrived at the north gate city wall and loudly boosted morale.
The generals of the Imperial Forest Army, who were struggling to hold on, couldn't help but be overjoyed when they saw Yang Songnu personally leading five hundred personal soldiers to reinforce him, and hurriedly shouted: "Soldiers, the lord personally resists the enemy, the lord personally resists the enemy, kill me, and repel this group of rebels." With that, he cut down a soldier who had just ascended the city.
The soldiers of the Imperial Forest Army, who were defending the city, saw that the lord Yang Songnu had arrived in person, and that five hundred reinforcements had also arrived, and they couldn't help but boost their morale and shout to resist the enemy.
Although their numbers still have the upper hand, the defenders have a city wall to rely on, and they can only use siege ladders and other siege equipment to feint the city wall, so the situation is unfavorable for the besieging side.
Yang An, who was commanding the siege under the city wall, looked up and saw Yang Songnu who personally commanded the enemy, and couldn't help but be furious, and bent his bow and shot an arrow at Yang Songnu, but Yang Songnu just glanced at the city, and then retracted his head, and Yang An's arrow failed to hit Yang Songnu.
"Hey." Yang An sighed, then looked at the city, and shouted: "Yang Songnu, you traitor who killed the king and seized the throne, you come out for me, don't hide behind." ”
Although there were sounds of fighting everywhere on the battlefield, Yang An's voice was very loud, and Yang Songnu, who was supervising the battle at the head of the city, still heard Yang An's shout.
Yang Songnu naturally wouldn't be fooled, he stood behind the female wall, and responded to the city: "Nephew, what are you looking for your uncle and grandfather." ”
This sounds like a curse, but what Yang Songnu said is not wrong, according to the generation, Yang Songnu is indeed Yang An's uncle and grandfather, and Yang An is also Yang Songnu's nephew.
Yang An was furious when he heard this, and shouted at the top of the city wall: "Yang Songnu, you are rampant, when I break through the city, I will definitely take your head." ”
"Good! Nephew, if you have the ability, just come and get it. Yang Songnu did not show weakness at all.
Yang An was furious and shouted: "Soldiers, attack the city, attack the city with all your might." ”
Inspired by Yang An, the besieging army launched a fierce attack on the city wall again, but the soldiers went through several hours of fierce battles, and the body consumption was extremely strict, while the imperial forest army at the head of the city increased by fifty percent of the troops, so the rebellious army under the command of Yang Guo was completely unable to attack the city head, and the losses were relatively large.
Yang Guo, who was standing in the distance to supervise the battle, saw that the army under his command was already at a disadvantage, and the siege strength agreed with Yang Shi had been reached, so he ordered softly: "Pass the order, Mingjin withdraw the troops." ”
"Bell, bell, ......," came the sound of Mingjin withdrawing his troops from behind Yang Guo's army.
Yang An, who was commanding the army to attack the city in front, heard the sound of gold in the rear, and couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief, and reluctantly ordered: "Soldiers, withdraw." After saying that, he slowly retreated backwards with his shield.
Thousands of rebel armies, under the leadership of Yang An, retreated one after another.
Seeing the retreat of the besieging Yang army, King Liang Shi was overjoyed and said, "Cousin, we won, and the army of Yang was defeated by our army again. ”
Yang Songnu sighed and said softly: "The losses of our army are not small, if Yang Guo and Yang Jun's army attacks so frequently every day, with the strength of our army, I am afraid that the city will be lost sooner or later!" ”
"Cousin, it would be nice if reinforcements arrived." Liang Shiwang said softly.
Hearing this, Yang Songnu nodded slightly. (To be continued......)
