Chapter 818 - Extraneous Branches (Third Update, Ask for a Monthly Pass, Ask for Recommendation!) )
Sun Deng and Zhang Cheng stood on the tower of Yiyang City, looking at the Shu Han army outside the city who was preparing for Zuihou, with gloomy expressions.
The corner of the city tower collapsed, the smoke and dust had not yet dissipated, and the dust flying everywhere was dyed with a layer of blood by the setting sun, and they danced the dance of death in front of Sun Deng. This is the result of the test firing of the Shu Han army just now, a stone bullet flew from 500 steps away, flew over the city wall by grazing the eaves of the city tower, and smashed on a firewood cart under the city, with a loud bang, like thunder on the ground. Although it did not hurt anyone, it made the Wu army who witnessed it tremble.
Even Sun Deng and Zhang Cheng, who came after the incident, couldn't help but be taken aback when they saw this scene.
Once the war officially starts, what kind of energy will the more than 1,000 thunderbolts set out outside the city burst out? This is the legendary siege tactic of set shooting?
Neither of them spoke, and their hearts were heavy. After Wei Ba surrounded Yiyang, he never launched an attack, he did not even fully surround Yiyang, but only camped outside Yiyang City, arranged a cavalry guard west of Xiangshui and south of Zishui, and blocked Yiyang City. Except for the messengers who came and went, the Wu army could not pass through this blockade line at all, and once someone crossed the Xiangshui or Zishui, they would be discovered and killed by the cruising cavalry.
Wei Ba now has 3,000 guards to ride, and he can easily suppress the Wu army.
Yiyang has been isolated from the world for half a month, and he only got the news once in the middle, which was sent by Zhang Wen, saying that Sun Quan was negotiating with Wei Ba, and asked the prince to be calm and not impatient, guard the city, and don't act rashly.
In fact, Zhang Wen didn't say anything, and Sun Deng didn't dare to act rashly. He didn't fight. It was all up to Zhang Cheng to take the idea, and Zhang Cheng was defeated in a battle outside the city, and the 7,000 army was wiped out. All they could rely on was the city wall, hoping to use the protection of the city wall to block Wei Ba's attack.
However, when Wei Ba set up more and more thunderbolts outside the city, even the city walls seemed to be unable to protect them. Look at the dense thunderbolts, look at the tight defense line. Looking at those tense and orderly soldiers of the Shu Han Army. Their faith is getting weaker.
They saw with their own eyes that Wei Ba's position was gradually taking shape, and it would be possible to experience the power of more than a thousand thunderbolts to attack the city, but they did not feel the slightest honor, only the sorrow of facing death.
They know it very well. Once the siege begins. Yiyang City can't last half a day.
"General. If the city is broken, please kill me. Sun Deng said in a hoarse voice. He didn't look back, his hands on the wall. looked out of the city, as if he was saying to the air, and as if he was saying to Wei Ba in the camp opposite. "I can't be a captured prince and disgrace my father."
Zhang Chenggan laughed: "Prince, I can't complete this important task." If the city is broken, I will die before the crown prince. He paused, and then said: "Prince, it is better to die in battle than to cut yourself, although the prince is weak, he has a sword in his hand." ”
Sun Deng bowed slightly: "The general's education is that although I am weak, I have a sword in my hand, even if I can't kill a few enemies and can't save Dawu, I can boost morale to some extent." I have been a big Wu for more than ten years, and I can't just die. ”
"If everyone is like the crown prince, of course my Da Wu will not die." Zhang Cheng patted the battlements: "The Sun family has been working hard for 40 years, and God will not care about it at all. ”
Sun Deng smiled silently, and his smile was very bleak. God's favor? It seems that God abandoned the state of Wu a few years ago. Since the success of Shu Han's first Northern Expedition, the state of Wu has fallen into the shadow of destruction. Years of war, losses and generals, even Lu Xun was defeated in the hands of Wei Ba, the land is declining, the people's livelihood is difficult, and the battle in the court has not stopped for a day, between monarchs and ministers, between fathers and sons, when has it really been harmonious? When has the deceitful and intrigue stopped?
The more Sun Deng thought about it, the more uncomfortable he became, his nose was sour, he lowered his head, and two tears slipped down, dripping on the battlements, seeping into the rammed earth in a moment, leaving only two black flowers, such as plums.
Just when Sun Deng and Zhang Cheng were about to die for the country, Fei Yi and Hu Zong rushed into Wei Ba's camp.
After listening to Fei Yi's narration, Wei Ba did not show any joy, on the contrary, he was a little unhappy. He was silent for a moment, got up and pulled Fei Yi out of the big tent, all the way to the front line, climbed the high command platform, pointed to the prepared position, and said angrily: "Do you think I still want him to contribute?" You come a day late, and tomorrow morning, I will be able to take Yiyang in one go and capture Sun Deng alive. ”
Hu Zong glanced at the position, and his face was a little pale because of the two days and two nights of Mercedes-Benz, and there was no blood at all. He once witnessed the scene of Wei Ba's capture of Wancheng, when more than 1,000 thunderbolts fired a salvo to conquer Wancheng in one fell swoop, opening a new era for the siege war, and that spectacular scene has been deeply engraved in his chest. However, at that time, they and Wei Ba were still allies, not enemies, so they felt more shock, and the element of fear was limited, but now Wei Ba was going to attack Yiyang City, and the city was Sun Deng, the prince of Wu State, the situation was different, and the feeling was completely different.
What he felt now was a deep fear.
He didn't doubt what Wei Ba said, half a day was enough for him to take Yiyang City and capture Sun Deng alive.
At the same time, he felt a little lucky. Thanks to Zhuge Jin, he had the courage to advise Sun Quan to sign the agreement in time, if it was delayed for another day, even if Sun Quan was willing to bow his head, Wei Ba would not agree. Now, the situation is not so bad, although Wei Ba is unhappy and has the possibility of being brutal, but since he brought them here to see, instead of refusing to do so, the general direction will not change.
Hu Zong subconsciously leaned towards Fei Yi.
Fei Yi smiled tiredly: "General, it was Li Feng and Zhang Wen who discussed haode, and you also agreed, as long as an agreement was reached before fifteen, the troops would be dismissed and repaired, and now we have tried our best to persuade King Wu, and we have rushed here with great difficulty, you look at us, we haven't been able to sleep well for two days and two nights, and it seems that the heaviest stone bullet is hanging on our eyelids, can you stop making extraneous branches?" ”
Wei Ba was furious, brushed his sleeves away, and threw Fei Yi and Hu Zong on the command platform.
Hu Zong was uneasy, and hurriedly asked Fei Yi: "Wen Wei." How is it good? ”
"Fine." Fei Yi waved his hand weakly: "He's not a messenger, let's go find Li Feng." Here Li Feng has the final say. ”
Hu Zonghu blinked suspiciously, not quite believing what Fei Yi said. Does Wei Ba say it here, Li Feng has the final say? If that's the case, then things are much easier. He really didn't want to deal with someone like Wei Ba, who was strong and a little unreasonable. Li Feng thought he was smart, but in fact he was pitifully stupid, and it was much easier to deal with him.
Hu Zong didn't dare to slack off, and followed Fei Yi to see Li Feng. I heard that Sun Quan agreed to the agreement and accepted all the conditions. Li Feng immediately became excited. Stroking his palms and smiling: "So, it's done?" Fei Jun, you have worked hard, hahaha......"
Fei Yi smiled bitterly: "Major General." The agreement was signed. The conditions, King Wu also agreed. But there are still some minor troubles. ”
"What's the little trouble?" Li Feng's eyebrows danced: "You say, see if there is anything I can help with." ”
"Only the Major General can handle this matter." Fei Yi told him what he had just done with Wei Ba. I heard that Wei Ba was not satisfied with this result. Li Feng immediately regretted that what he had just said was too full. He can solve other things, but when dealing with Wei Ba, he has no certainty of victory, after all, the army is in the hands of Wei Ba, and if Wei Ba does not agree to withdraw his troops, he really has no choice.
"The major general is the messenger of the general, but he can speak on behalf of the general, I think General Zhennan will not disobey the general's military orders, right?" Hu Zong hurriedly provoked. Zuihou is Wei Ba, the only hope to overcome this pass is Li Feng, if Li Feng does not dare to come forward, then this matter cannot be regarded as over.
Fei Yi also followed behind with a few words of flattery, and praised Li Feng highly, so that no one except him could settle Wei Ba, as long as Li Feng came out, Wei Ba could only give up no matter how many opinions he had. The two countries have truce, everyone else is a supporting role, Li Feng is the real protagonist, he can fight and make peace with his words, which can not only cause countless killings, but also benefit the people of the two countries.
Li Feng was a little fluttering by them, patted his chest with righteousness, and took the initiative to persuade Wei Ba.
Fei Yi and Hu Zong struck while the iron was hot, and hugged Li Feng to Wei Ba's big tent.
Wei Ba's big tent was full of people, and dozens of generals were discussing tactics around the sand table, competing for the opportunity to start. Wei Ba was surrounded in the middle, and when he saw Li Feng coming in, Wei Ba waved his hand, and the generals immediately closed their mouths, got out of the way, and looked at Li Feng and Fei Yi and others curiously. Their faces were filled with the excitement before the battle, some grinned and laughed, wondering if they were thinking about what they could achieve, some rolled their eyes, not knowing what ideas they were thinking, and some of them frowned at each other, as if they had just had a conflict because of the merit.
Li Feng was a little uneasy, his face was also a little stiff, Wei Ba gathered generals to discuss matters and prepare to attack the city, and he had no intention of making a truce at all. He did this on purpose to show me, if I let him stop now, will he let these brutes cut me down?
Li Feng walked up to Wei Ba and said with a forced smile: "General, great joy, King Wu has agreed to be a minister." ”
"Oh, really?" Wei Bapi looked at Li Feng with a smile, and glanced at Fei Yi and Hu Zong behind him dissatisfied, and spread his hands: "Actually, it's okay if he doesn't agree." Major General, you see, the morale of our army is high, and everyone is vying to be the first. Everything is ready, just wait for the order of the young general tomorrow, we can break through Yiyang and capture Sun Deng alive. ”
Hu Zong looked at Li Feng nervously, and he didn't even dare to come out.
Li Feng faked a cough, laughing more ugly than crying: "Your courage is commendable, and you are really a national cadre." However, for the sake of the people of the world, since King Wu is a minister and the general's goal has been achieved, why bother to fight again, let the innocent soldiers throw their heads and spill their blood? Wouldn't it be better to take a truce and go home to live and work in peace and contentment, and to share the joy of family? ”
Wei Ba's voice became louder, unable to hide his anger. "Are we going to give up after so many days? Major General, you have to think twice. The anger can not be vented, the army is gathered here, and it retreats without a fight, isn't it a waste of labor and money? Major general, in the opinion of the last general, it is better to fight. ”…… (To be continued......)
