Chapter 266: Timely Rain Liu Bei
At this moment, bursts of shouts came from many places in the camp of the Wuhuan people, and several fires broke out, and the entire camp was blown up immediately.
Although it is winter now, the air is also dry, and the wind is very strong, but in a moment, the fire is connected, and the Wuhuan people who surrounded Xiahou Bo naturally have no intention of fighting again, and they all go to fight the fire.
Xiahou Bo was saved, and after greeting the two white horse yi, he retreated, and the two white horse yi said from this time: "No need to ask, this fire must have been done by General Tian Yu!"
Xiahou Bo smiled, and couldn't help but be grateful to Tian Yu for his cooperation, if it weren't for Tian Yu, today next year would be his Xiahou Bo's death day.
Thinking of this, Xiahou Bo was also a little curious about Tian Yu's appearance here, and asked, "By the way, why are you here?"
The two looked at each other and did not answer immediately.
Xiahou Bo smiled: "I understand, this is a military secret, if you are embarrassed, I will not ask more!"
"That's the case, General Tian Yu was ordered by Gongsun Taishou to come to investigate the grain storage of the Wuhuan people!" After the two hesitated, they still said it, after all, they had lived and died with Xiahou Bo.
Xiahou Bo knew in his heart, Gongsun Zhan couldn't hold on, and planned to sneak attack and burn the grain and grass of the Wuhuan people? But why did he meet several other waves of people before? He asked suspiciously: "No, in order to find Qiu Liju's main camp, I have infiltrated many enemy camps these days, and I have secretly met many guys with extraordinary skills, and I have fought with them, but the other party has not admitted his identity!"
The two white horses were taken aback: "What? besides us, there are others?"
Before the words fell, I saw that those Wuhuan people had already controlled the fire with all hands and feet, and sounded the gongs and drums, and soon, there was a group of thousands of Wuhuan heavy men and horses roaring, hundreds of people rode high-headed horses, and the momentum was very different from ordinary Wuhuan people and horses.
The two Bai Ma Yi recognized it at a glance: "This is Qiu Liju's own personal guard unit, and its combat strength is not comparable to that of ordinary Wuhuan miscellaneous soldiers, it can be seen that someone has alarmed them!"
Xiahou Bo said: "If you want to know what happened, you can only blend in with these people, let's act later, kill a few Wuhuan miscellaneous soldiers, and then change into their clothes, so that maybe we can help you quickly find out where the enemy's food and grass are!"
The two said hello in unison.
The people Xiahou Bo met before were the scouts sent by Dian Wei to the camps of the Wuhuan people, the purpose was naturally to find out where the Wuhuan people's food was located, after all, Dian Wei took these two thousand men and horses, from the spring moon to Youzhou, until the winter moon, but he was not able to lift the siege of Gongsun Zhan, and the news of Nanyang was good and bad, and it would come every few days, which also made Dian Wei very worried, and he almost pulled out the camp and went back several times.
But the arrival of one person changed the status quo.
This person did not disclose his name, but only volunteered to help Dian Wei, and stated that if he could lift the siege of Guanzi City, he would leave, otherwise with Dian Wei's mind, he would never have thought of sending scouts to listen to the Wuhuan people's grain station, and he must have sent troops to attack Qiu Liju directly, at most disguised as Wuhuan soldiers, killing Qiu Liju by surprise.
"General Qi Dian Wei, the scout heard it, the Wuhuan people don't have a place to store grain, they are all sent from Jixian County in a steady stream, each time 100,000 grains and grass, as soon as they arrive, they will be immediately distributed to all Wuhuan soldiers, probably to avoid being attacked!"
As the night faded, a soldier walked quickly to the Chinese tent and reported the latest news to Dian Wei.
"Got it, let's go down!" Dian Wei was not surprised by this news, his eyes just glanced at the middle-aged man in a gray cloth robe beside him with admiration, and laughed loudly: "Mr. Cheng is really powerful, it seems that everything is under your control, so what should I do next?"
The middle-aged man known as Mr. Cheng smiled slightly: "As expected, Jixian County is the seat of governance in the entire Youzhou, and it is so blatant to send grain and grass to Wuhuan Qiu Liju, there is only one answer, it is Liu Yu himself who has been secretly making ghosts!"
"Huh?" Dian Wei was taken aback, although he had never only cared about the war, but he finally knew that now Youzhou Mu was Liu Yu, as a Han Chen, how could Liu Yu in turn help Qiu Liju, who endangered the Han Court?
"A few of you, go down first!" Dian Wei knew that there were many people, so he asked the idle people in the tent to go out first, and then asked this Mr. Cheng, "Is this true?"
The middle-aged man nodded: "It won't be wrong, as far as I know, this Liu Yu used to be the position of Zongzheng, although he was only one of the nine secretaries in charge of the affairs of the emperor's relatives and relatives, but he himself has a high reputation, but since Liu Yan asked to change the history of the assassin to the state pastor, it is different, a person, even if he has a clear reputation, once he sits in a position that is easy to inflate ambitions, he will really become a person with inflated ambitions, and for this, he will not hesitate to betray the interests of the country!"
Dian Wei scratched his head and asked the middle-aged man: "No, even if the emperor is far away, but he is a clan relative, and colluding with foreign clans is so blatant, he is not afraid of leaking the news?"
The middle-aged man smiled again: "So, he chose to borrow the hand of Qiu Liju to eliminate Gongsun Zhan, but in turn he played the court, saying that it is appropriate to treat foreign people and war, and now the court is too busy to take care of itself, it must be that this Liu Yu will listen to what he says, and at that time, Gongsun Zhan will be dead, and the truth will be buried forever, will others go against the dignified Youzhou Mu for a dead man?"
Dian Wei understood a little, but he still didn't fully understand, but he couldn't care so much, he smiled, clenched his fists and said like a Hongzhong: "Well said, this time, Mr. can let me make a move, right? You must already have a way to deal with it, just say it, the lord originally asked me to rescue Gongsun Zhan Taishou, I have been waiting for this moment for a long time!"
The middle-aged man waved his hand: "Don't be anxious first, the general has found the root cause now, and then he will divide his troops into two ways, all the way to cut off the supply line from Jixian County to support Qiu Liju, and all the way to spread the news of the food shortage, taking advantage of the chaos of the Wuhuan people's formation, send troops to respond to Gongsun Zhan's men and horses to break out of the city, but the general only has two people, and it is obviously not enough to do these things!"
Dian Wei also has a bit of a headache, yes, it is difficult to do things with fewer people, and there is great strength in many people, he can't help but blame Gao Yi now for only giving him 2,000 men and horses before he came, even if he recruits new soldiers temporarily, it is impossible to have the fighting spirit and combat power to fight on the battlefield in a short time.
Just then, a scout Pegasus arrived, beaming into the tent. As soon as he saw Dian Wei, he said happily: "General Dian Wei, good news, Liu Bei heard that Gongsun Zhan was besieged in Guanzi City, and arrived from Gaotang with five thousand men and horses, and he has arrived outside the camp!"
Dian Wei was overjoyed when he heard this, looked at the middle-aged man and said: "This Liu Bei heard that he is the junior brother of Gongsun Zhan, when I came from Jizhou, the lord told me that this person can be united, and the lord also has a friendship with him, and gave him 5,000 men and horses, but he was busy pacifying the rebellion in the jurisdiction at first, so he delayed the time, and now it is coming, it is really a solution to an urgent need!"
As soon as the middle-aged man heard Liu Bei's name, his originally frowning brows also relaxed: "Hehe, I thought that this Liu Bei would not come, but I didn't think that I was still thinking about my classmate with Gongsun Zhan, or not, with him, I can leave with peace of mind, General Dian Wei, we have a fate on a different day, and we will meet again!"
After that, he got up and walked outside, Dian Wei didn't react for a while, it took a long time to come back to his senses, and hurriedly asked, "Sir, I haven't asked you what your name is!"
"Cheng Pu, Cheng Demou!" The middle-aged man's voice came melodiously, but the person had long been gone, Dian Wei was surprised that this middle-aged man who had been pretending to be a scribe also had hidden kung fu, and he only hated himself for having no eyes and beads, and did not leave this Cheng Pu, otherwise he would definitely gather a great talent for Gao Yi.
Liaoxi County, Guanzi City.
Riding Duwei Gongsun Chan in this city by the Wuhuan Qiu Liju tens of thousands of horses surrounded by more than 200 days, did not wait for the imperial court reinforcements, but waited for Gao Yi under the tent of a fierce general named Dian Wei led by two thousand men and horses, this force is very strange, camped in a place less than a few miles away from the Wuhuan enemy army outside the city is easy to defend and difficult to attack, but is not in a hurry to attack the enemy, nor is it in a hurry to rush into the city to merge with Gongsun Zhan's men and horses, because Guanzi City is located in the high ground, so Gongsun Chan will see all this clearly, Dian Wei this force of people, more like to act perfunctory, Qiu Liju himself has also attacked a few times, but because Dian Wei camped is more special, so after a few times without results, I don't care anymore.
Gongsun Chan was extremely anxious, because the imperial court saw that he had been invincible for a long time, and had previously sent Zongzheng Liu Yu as the pastor of Youzhou, intending to resolve the conflict by diplomatic means, which was tantamount to a nightmare for Gongsun Zhan, originally Liu Yan suggested to the Son of Heaven that the matter of the assassin Shi Hua Zhou Mu was extremely sensitive, and the assassin was only an official with only 600 stones of Yulu in the past, and it was not as good as the Taishou and the minister of the state of Yulu 2,000 stones, but the state pastor is different, with the military and financial power of the entire state, which is equivalent to a soil emperor, Liu Yu has always advocated a gentle treatment of the foreign problems in the north, if this person has the right to speak in Youzhou, then Gongsun Chan can only live by relying on this person's snort, which is simply unimaginable for Gongsun Chan, who believes in the principle of the supremacy of solving problems by force.
But it was useless for Gongsun Chan to think about it, because now that he was trapped in this pipe city by Qiu Liju, no matter how high his heart was, he could only sigh.
