Chapter 821: Helping Arrogance and Falling into Frost and Cold

The herald sent to Xianliang City has not returned for a long time, and the ninth prince always feels uneasy in his heart, and said: "Spread the white spring lord to come!" Su Gonggong hurried away and walked into the hall with Bai Ze, the ninth prince avoided all the cumbersomeness, and asked directly: "What news is there from the Nanzhou court and the army?" Bai Ze didn't know what the ninth prince was asking, and said: " In the last battle, there were many discussions in the Nanzhou court, blaming each other, and even being dissatisfied with this Shengya, as for the Nanzhou army, desertion is not uncommon, judging from Tang Feng's breakthrough of the city, there are fewer and fewer soldiers defending the city, otherwise Tang Feng's Zhenbei battalion would not have advanced so quickly!" No, it's not right anywhere, although Nanzhou lost the last battle, but the remaining troops in Nanzhou now are enough to have the strength to fight, and the city of Nanzhou has been repeatedly broken, but it still has to divide troops to encircle and annihilate Suoyi's cavalry, and the Nanzhou court is not all fools!" Jiu Gongzi turned around and asked: "Where is the Praetorian Guard in Nanzhou now?" The people of the military department said: "In less than a day, we will return to the place where the two sides are fighting!" Jiu Gongzi exclaimed: "Illusions, they are all illusions, deserters, and insufficient troops to defend the city are all illusions, they just want to lead the northern battalion of the town to go deep!" The people of the military department were puzzled: "But with the current strength of Nanzhou, it is difficult to besiege the northern army in a roundabout way, and after the battle between the Janissaries and General Suo, they have always been within our surveillance range!" Immediately ordered Tang Feng to increase the defense of the city behind him and prepare to retreat!" Many attendants in the military department and several elders waiting for Yuequan did not understand what Jiu Gongzi meant, and when Jiu Gongzi saw that no one responded, he shouted angrily: "Are they all dead? Didn't you hear my order?" Everyone present was dissatisfied in their hearts, and Su Gonggong hurriedly went to arrange it first.

Ignoring everyone's dissatisfaction, the Nine Princes shouted: "Order the Praetorian Guard, the Light Feather Guard, and all the people who wait for Yuequan to prepare for battle, and be ready to move forward at any time." At the same time, he ordered the grain and grass to be doubled, and escorted the grain and grass army to follow the Praetorian Guard!" In the face of the wrath of the Ninth Prince, all the officials did not dare to slack off, and left one after another to prepare according to the instructions of the Ninth Prince.

Xianliang City, Zhenbei camp has been resting for three days, Tang Feng and the generals are discussing in the room, at this time the scout came to report: "Marshal, Qiancheng is coming, the defenders in the city have no will to fight, the deserters are becoming more and more endless, and the Qiancheng prison is already overcrowded!" Tang Feng waved his hand and the scout retreated, and the general in the room was overjoyed, and said: "Dashuai, our army has been recuperating for three days, and now the defenders of Qiancheng have no will to fight, and the last general is willing to lead the army to break the city!" As long as the Qiancheng is breached, the Nanzhou army can only retreat to the defense line of the Nanzhou Imperial City, and at that time, the unification of Nanzhou will be just around the corner!" Tang Feng frowned and said: "I know that as long as the Qiancheng is breached, it will be difficult for Nanzhou to turn over, how can Nanzhou be offered with both hands, so there must be a conspiracy in it! It is better to be careful!"

He repeatedly sent people into Qiancheng to inquire about the news, but the news returned from each inquiry was the same. Tang Feng had already begun to suspect that Nanzhou was ready to completely abandon the defense line and prepare to fight to the death outside the defense line of the Imperial City.

Seven or eight Chinese fastest ~ mobile terminal: :// Tang Feng is ready to send his general Cui Qi to lead an army of 50,000 to attack Qiancheng, to test it, Tang Feng ordered Cui Qi to feign an attack on Qiancheng, and he personally led the army to be ready to respond at any time.

But Cui Qi led the army has not yet attacked, the gate of Qiancheng actually opened by itself, many people mixed with the defenders in military uniforms poured out, fled everywhere, a moment later, there was no trace of the city gate, Cui Qi sent a team of men and horses to go in to see, a thousand soldiers and horses entered the city, the city gate suddenly closed, after a wail, a silence, when Cui Qi panicked, the people who fled everywhere defenders, suddenly rushed to Cui Qi, the city gate rushed out of the mighty army, Tang Feng knew that the plan, immediately sent troops to meet Cui Qi to withdraw to Xianliang City, the two armies fought for no less than two hours, both sides retreated, although the army led by Cui Qi lost some, but after the battle between the two sides, the losses were almost the same.

。 Returning to Xianliang City, all the generals had palpitations, and said one after another: "Fortunately, the marshal has foresight, otherwise we will definitely fall for Nanzhou's trick!" At this time, the people sent by the Nine Princes arrived in Xianliang City and conveyed the will of the Nine Princes, and the generals of the camp in the north of the town did not understand the meaning of His Majesty's holy decree, but Tang Feng was in his heart for a while, and hurriedly said: "Cui Qi, you immediately lead 50,000 horses to increase the defense of Woma City, Wang He, you lead 30,000 troops to clear the way to retreat, and you must ensure that the army can retreat smoothly at any time!" The generals had just woken up from the shock, and it was difficult to understand what Tang Feng meant, standing there for a while and not knowing what to do, Tang Feng shouted: "You two don't go quickly, do you want to disobey the commander's order?" The two clasped their fists and said: "The last general doesn't dare, the last general will go!" At this time, the scout hurriedly reported: "Qiqi Marshal, the city of Woma was broken, and an army of 20,000 people dressed in strange costumes and fancy clothes came to Xianliang City with the imperial flag of Nanzhou!" When the generals were puzzled, the soldiers of the city wall came to report:" "The prey changed in an instant, and all the generals climbed the city wall, only to see no less than 400,000 Nanzhou troops lined up under the city.

Cui Qi said: "Dashuai, now that the city of Woma has been broken, the supply of grain and grass in the rear has been cut off, and now the grain and grass in Xianliang City are barely enough for us to support for fifteen days, it is better for the last general to lead the army to destroy the thief army, as long as the supply of grain and grass is sufficient, the army of Nanzhou under the city is not to be afraid!" At this time, another scout came to report: "Hello Marshal, Tongyang City has been broken, and all the 30,000 defenders of Tongyang have been executed!" Tang Feng was stunned, an army of 20,000 actually broke two cities in a short period of time, it was not so simple, and the generals finally knew why an army of 20,000 dared to appear behind Xianliang City.

Tang Feng said: "Now we have no way to retreat, once we retreat, the Nanzhou army will take the opportunity to press, we will be more passive, and even have no walls to defend, and there will be more casualties." Only a desperate battle, repelling the Nanzhou army under the city, breaking through Qiancheng, attacking the defense line of the Nanzhou Imperial City, since His Majesty asked me to pay attention to the rear, I have already seen through the tricks of Nanzhou, we can only gamble on the 20,000 people in the rear, bet that Your Majesty will help us solve it, Tongyang is here, even if 20,000 people are powerful, it will take at least three days, so we must break through Qiancheng within three days, with the grain and grass of Xianliang City and the grain and grass stored by the nearly 400,000 Nanzhou army in Qiancheng, even if we hold on to Qiancheng, we can hold on for more time, and wait for the Nanzhou Emperor to reassemble the army, enough reinforcements to comeThe atmosphere was instantly suppressed, and Tang Feng ordered all the generals to go and prepare, listen to orders at any time, and prepare to open the city to meet the enemy.
