Chapter 1096: Daxing Night Attack
"Ahh Fire, on fire! A soldier screamed first, and Pei Shu desperately grabbed the reins in his hand, not daring to take another step.
It turned out that this place was burned by the rockets shot from the city tower, and Pei Shu suddenly realized, "Fire oil is poured here!" All backwards! ”
A long fire dragon surrounded the entire wall, and they were right at the location of the wall of fire. Many soldiers were on fire, and as soon as they got it, they immediately became a burning man.
"Bring the bow!" Gu Chengyu stretched out his hand to the side, and Mingmo immediately handed over a black bow.
Pei Shu used his sword to cut off the flying arrows, "Go back!" The oil didn't last long! ”
He didn't believe it, and when the oil ran out, he would see how the 50,000 soldiers and horses of Wujun Mansion could defeat their 60,000 soldiers and horses.
Gu Chengyu took the arrow, captured the thief and captured the king first, as long as Pei Shu was solved first, what was there to fear from the courage of the remaining stragglers?
In the firelight, a sharp arrow shuttled through the rocket rain and attacked Pei Shu.
"Gu Chengyu!" Suddenly, a loud shout came, and the arrow shot by Gu Chengyu was missed by another arrow.
Gu Chengyu was a little surprised, and immediately raised his eyes and looked over, King Gong? He was a little surprised, he didn't expect King Gong to appear here.
Pei Shu walked in front of the Nine Gates, and a cold sweat suddenly broke out on his body.
"Lord Wang? How did you get here? Pei Shu immediately drove his horse to King Gong.
King Gong ignored Pei Shu, but looked straight at the city tower.
Gu Chengyu estimated that the people brought by King Gong were only a lot more than those brought by Pei Shu. It seems that King Gong still attaches great importance to Wujun Mansion, perhaps because he expected that there would be a change, so he brought people and horses to reinforce him.
And they only have 50,000 horses here, if King Gong insists on attacking the city, then they can only fight to the end.
"Gu Chengyu, you must be the enemy of this king?" King Gong clutched the reins, he was wrong, he should have joined forces with Gu Chengyu earlier.
Maybe Gu Chengyu may not necessarily choose him, but at least there is some hope. Unlike now, Gu Chengyu finally chose the crown prince.
When his father gave the crown prince to the second child, he hated it, hated the second child for having a good background, and hated him even more for not being a son-in-law, but he was the eldest son, otherwise he would not be in such an embarrassing situation.
He was also disheartened, and after going to the fiefdom Jingyuan Mansion, he was even more depressed for a while, so that he missed the opportunity, Gu Chengyu may have formed an alliance with the prince at that time, right?
In the final analysis, it was when they first met that he left a bad impression on Gu Chengyu. Later, there was another case of bandits, and Gu Chengyu should have suspected that he had done it.
But so what? If he wants to accomplish great things, he doesn't have to worry about these small things. He was born into the royal family and has always been high. For him, it is only a sacrifice of some common people, but it is of great help to him, what are these people?
Since ancient times, who has not done this for those heroes who have achieved great things?
"Why does the prince need to ask again? The Tao is different, not the same! Gu Chengyu knew that King Gong had some appreciation for him, but that was because he was still of some use to King Gong now.
If he really chooses King Gong, King Gong will be crowned with great treasures in the future, and he will be guaranteed to treat him as well as he does now?
No matter who succeeds to the throne, it's just another Emperor Huiming!
If you are used, you will naturally be courteous. I don't need you, it's a luxury to be left in the corner and ashes, and people think you take his place.
Emperors, they are all so ruthless!
"It's a good way, it's not the same!" King Gong didn't know how to describe his mood at the moment, and he didn't want to think about it until now.
"Withdraw your troops!" King Gong waved his hand and took the lead in turning back, preparing to leave this place.
"Lord Wang! Shall we withdraw our troops? You have brought so many people, and we have many more people than they have in Wujun Mansion. Anyway, it's already here, so why don't you just do it and take this city? ”
Pei Shu was a little confused, although they had lost a lot of troops just now. But they were more than twice as many as the army of Wujun Mansion, and he was unwilling to let go of such a good opportunity.
"Do you think he has no back-up? Didn't you see that there hasn't been a single soldier under the city tower until now? Let's go! Today, the opportunity has been lost, and their reinforcements are about to arrive, so go back and take care slowly! ”
No matter how unwilling Pei Shu was in his heart, he could only order the army behind him to retreat.
Gu Chengyu held the bow and arrow, but did not continue to attack. Looking at the rapidly retreating army, he understood that when he met King Gong again in the future, it would be a confrontation.
Lowering the longbow, he sighed. There is a huge disparity between the strength of the enemy and us, and King Gong's martial arts are not weak, so it is impossible to succeed in a sneak attack like just now.
Moreover, he is now only an identity of supervising the imperial history, and it is not a good thing to stretch his hand too long. Since King Gong voluntarily withdrew from the army, it couldn't be better.
It also saves him from commanding the battle, and when it is transmitted back to the capital, those imperial histories will begin to spit again.
"My lord! That's King Gong, we just killed them by surprise, they must have lost a lot, why don't we? ”
Wang Baihu saw that the other party had lost a lot of people, and his confidence suddenly doubled. When he saw King Gong appear, he couldn't help but think in his heart.
If King Gong can be won today, such a monstrous merit will be enough for them to be promoted to several grades.
Gu Chengyu glanced at him, "Since Wang Baihu is confident in taking King Gong, why don't you hand over the 50,000 soldiers and horses waiting outside the city to you?" This official is waiting for good news! ”
Wang Baihu was speechless, and he was a little at a loss. Although Gu Chengyu's expression did not change, he was still calm and calm, but he always felt that Gu Chengyu was angry.
"My lord laughed, you also know that the humble position is a hundred households, how dare you take the command of thousands of troops? This is not in line with reason, and it is also inconsistent with the law! ”
Wang Baihuqiang laughed, this Lord Gu is young, but he is very powerful, and he unconsciously makes people awe-inspired.
"It's good if you know your identity, you can't afford this token, and so is this official!"
"Yes!" Wang Baihu was taken aback, and then he remembered that the token in Lord Gu's hand belonged to General Yuan, and Lord Gu had no right to use this token at all.
After Gu Chengyu finished speaking, he looked at Governor Qiu on the side, thinking about how to clean up this person.
The interrogators were all interrogated, and King Gong suddenly withdrew from the army, and this person was useless.
"Hold him in custody first, and wait for the official to send the news back to the capital, and see what the emperor disposes of."
"Yes!" Wang Baihu immediately replied respectfully, but he suddenly thought that if the Qiu Governor's Mansion was locked up, then from today on, who would be in charge of the overall situation in Wujun Mansion?
Could it be that Lord Gu doesn't go to Yuhe Guan and wants to stay in Wujun Mansion to preside over the overall situation?
"All the official affairs of Wujun Mansion are temporarily entrusted to the Prime Minister Tongzhi!"
Gu Chengyu explained what was going on here, and when the reinforcements came, he was going to leave for Yuhe Pass. After all, he was passing by, and his destination was Yuheguan.
"Master Gu, it's not good! Daxing's army attacked the camp stationed outside Yuhe Pass at night, and those reinforcements retreated. ”
