Chapter 325: Difficult to Walk
????? v?J???????,? Us?/?f?. =t{?o) S?0??? IV. U??? ?? Seeing that Yudong was unharmed, his heart was a little relieved, looking at Yudong's Yongding soldier's clothes, he shook the reins, turned around and went to the Shu army camp.
Yudong had a bunch of words in his heart, but he couldn't say it, seeing Hong Tianxi running farther and farther, he lay on the battlements and shouted loudly, "Don't follow King Teng to make trouble, the relatives at home are still waiting for you to go home!"
When Hong Tianxi heard this, his back stiffened, but he didn't look back, but whipped the horse's buttocks and fled more quickly.
Back in the Shu army camp, King Teng was in front of the camp, seeing Hong Tianxi like this, he asked with a smile, "The general didn't want to check the enemy camp? Why did he come back so quickly? The young man on the city tower is an old acquaintance with the general?"
"It looks a bit like an old man, when I was in Yunchang, I taught two young martial arts, and that person seemed to be one of them. It's just that I haven't seen it for many years, so I can't recognize it. ”
Hong Tianxi said with a normal face, "Lord Wang, why don't you send someone to investigate, if it is really Yan Yudong that I taught, maybe I can persuade him to surrender." ”
Teng Wanghu glanced at Hong Tianxi suspiciously.
"I don't know what the prince wants? That Yan Yudong is not very old, if he comes over, I want to take him personally, and in the future, there will be a person who will support the elderly and send him to the end of his life." The identity of his apprentice came out, and Yongding couldn't spare him. Hong Tianxi explained.
"It turned out that the general wanted to take him to pass on the mantle. It's better to let out the rumors now, saying that Yan Yudong is your apprentice, like father and son, and it is enough to cut off his back road. Mr. Xi suggested with a smile on the side.
"Yan Yudong? is Yan Jincheng's cousin? Speaking of which, he is really destined for us, and with the identity of the general's apprentice and Yan Jincheng's cousin, he is also destined to be under the command of the prince. The strategist who suggested driving the people to seize the city said playfully, and after speaking, he also flattered King Teng and Hong Tianxi.
Hong Tianxi listened to the words of these people, and was a little anxious in his heart, but his face did not show it, "Now he is guarding the city in Runzhou City, if his two identities are leaked, I am afraid that those people in the city will not be able to tolerate him." ”
"The general's concerns are also reasonable, what is the general's plan?" King Teng asked cordially.
"Lord, I want to write a letter and send it to the city. I don't know if there are any of us in the city today. ”
King Teng thought for a moment, "Wait for the general to write a letter and let people send it to the city to see." ”
"The general might as well write a letter now. The stalemate here in Runzhou has been too long, and it is not good for us. Mr. Xi urged, "If the general can persuade Yan Yudong to surrender, it can be regarded as a master-apprentice cooperation to take Runzhou, which is also a good story." ”
After hearing this, everyone echoed it, and Hong Tianxi responded with a few words, "I'm going to write a letter, lord, the siege of the city will be suspended in advance, if the persuasion fails, we will transfer the army up and capture Runzhou in one go." ”
"Well, if the gates of the city are not opened tomorrow, let the army storm it. King Teng said.
Hong Tianxi answered, turned around and went to write a letter.
Runzhou was besieged and besieged, and it has been four or five days before and after. Hong Tianxi calculated, if the imperial court wants to send reinforcements, it will arrive in a few days, right?
Today's truce will at least give the city a breather.
Hong Tianxi couldn't tell what was going on in his heart. He was loyal to the imperial court, but Emperor Wu was also the murderer of his wife and children.
He wanted to help King Teng wholeheartedly, but when he thought of the tragic situation in Hanjia Village and Qingzhou, he knew in his heart that King Teng was not Renjun.
Especially after Tang Hezhang jumped into the river, every time in the dead of night, he would remember that he was also a rebellious minister and thief scolded by Tang Hezhang.
Hong Tianxi only felt that he had nowhere to retreat, and what he did was wrong.
But when I saw Yudong today, he was standing in the city tower in armor, as if he was one with the city tower.
His only thought was to let this fugitive live, even if it was to benefit the court.
He can't say that he won't attack the city, but in the name of persuasion, he can delay it for a day.
Hong Tianxi carefully wrote a letter in the camp tent.
As King Teng said today, he was afraid that he would not fully believe his words, and this letter would definitely be reviewed.
Therefore, Hong Tianxi only said a few details of why he went to Shu in the letter, and mentioned that there must not be many defenders in Runzhou City, and for the safety of Yudong, let him think more about Yunchang's own teachings, and switch to King Teng to help him avenge himself.
After he wrote it, he didn't seal it, and directly asked his soldiers to send it to King Teng. He asked people to take a topographic map of Runzhou, and convened the generals of the army to discuss how to attack the city.
King Teng read the letter, and it was obvious between the lines that the feelings were sincere, and the content of the letter was also persuasion.
Mr. Xi took it and read it, and felt that this was indeed a letter of persuasion.
In Runzhou City, it is not easy to infiltrate the secret agents now, but in the end, there are still people left in the past.
King Teng asked people to send the letter to the city.
It's a pity that the number of secret agents left in the city is too small to make a difference.
Since the Shu army attacked the city, all the people in Runzhou City have been soldiers.
The young man went up to the city tower, and the old woman was busy delivering medicine and healing to the soldiers, cooking and delivering food.
And the children split in two. The little ladies followed Yushu and washed and sewed for the soldiers.
The boys, instigated by Yuliang, wandered around the city. At the slightest suspicious move, the children swarmed up and beckoned others to arrest the spies.
For a while, it was difficult to deliver the news in Runzhou City. Until yesterday, King Teng didn't know that the new defenders on the city tower were all the people in the city.
After the letter was sent, King Teng could only wait, looking forward to the good news coming from Runzhou City.
After Yudong saw Hong Tianxi, he only regretted that he didn't tell his master Fu Yuande about the punishment. If he told the master the news, maybe the master would wake up and stop helping King Teng.
Qi Shishi and the others didn't know Yudong's anxiety, and they were surprised that the reinforcements of the Shu army came, but they didn't take the opportunity to attack the city.
They counted the days, even if the imperial court didn't know about the loss of Qingzhou, now in four days, the news of Runzhou's emergency should have reached the capital, right? Why haven't the reinforcements arrived yet?
In the city of Runzhou, grain and grass are decreasing day by day.
Originally, there was not much food hoarded in the army, and after these four days of consumption, it was only enough for three or five days of rations.
"If the prince doesn't come again, he can only recapture Runzhou from the Shu army. Qi Shishi muttered stupidly, looked at Yuxiu, and didn't ask any more ideas.
In the past few days, Yuxiu has come up with a lot of good ideas, but this lack of food, unless it is a god, who can have a way?
Yuxiu also knew that there was a shortage of food in the city, but she said that the rich families in the city could say that they could move, and it was absolutely impossible to donate food again.
Qi Shi asked people to count the heads, and ordered everyone to take the opportunity to repair them, and he also asked the doctor to change the medicine for himself.
Yudong was finally able to have a meal with his younger siblings.
He walked into the backyard and saw that Yuxiu was taking Yushu and Yuliang, as well as Zhao Quansheng and Liu Hongbo, squatting in the corner of the wall and digging the ground together.
"Xiuxiu, what are you doing here?"
