Chapter 283: Dry Consumption
As for the question of where Xie Youliang will attack next, in fact, Wang Jing has discussed it with Liu Yongan after his last attack on Jiqing failed. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Wang Jing: "Xie Youliang is stiff and suspicious, if he didn't capture Jiqing last time, he will definitely feel that he is startled, and we will already be prepared when we attack again." After all, the world knows about your use of oil to defend Haozhou, presumably he no longer dares to attack Jiqing, and Longxing is his old capital, and there are only 40,000 people there to defend the city, so he will feel that it is easier to take it. He had been defeated for so long, and he urgently needed a victory to boost his fame and morale. "After all, he doesn't have a good name.
When Liu Chengfang discussed this matter with his subordinates and asked everyone's opinions, Liu Yongan repeated it according to his daughter-in-law's statement.
The opponents believe that Xie Youliang was able to absorb all the members of the Xu family in just half a month after Xu Zhenyi was killed, which is enough to be called a hero for a lifetime, and should be treated with caution. Longxing is easy to defend and difficult to attack, if Xie Youliang sends too few people, another defeat may shake the morale of the army, if a large number of people and horses travel, the consumption of grain, grass and weapons alone is a problem. Even if Long Xing can capture it, it is a move of hard work and money, and it can't shake the foundation of the Liu family, so it is better to attack Jiqing, at least once, and the previous experience is still there. If Xie Youliang gathers all the people around the celebration, the outcome may be unknown.
My family said that the outcome was unknown, but in fact, it meant that the defeat was determined.
These words reached Liu Chengfang's heart, and at that time, he also secretly looked for his son, "Do you still have the kind of oil you guarded in Haozhou last time?" ”
Liu Yongan: If Xie Youliang attacks Jiqing, he must attack Taiping first, since Xie Youliang dares to attack, he must be unprepared, the officers and soldiers attack Haozhou is infantry to fight, only surround the city and wait for them to surrender, and Xie Youliang must be a sailor in Jiqing, the two cannot be generalized.
But he didn't refute his father, but said: "My son has a new picture of making a fire-making crossbow, and he has already driven out a lot, even if the thieves come to attack, Jiqing will definitely be fine." ”
Liu Cheng conveniently asked to see the finished fire crossbow.
In fact, it is to use a bow and arrow to shoot fire-breathing arrows, and it is like a tiger with wings in a place like Shoujiqing standing against the river. Even Liu Chengfang, who easily did not praise his son, had to smile at this time: "It's a good thing, you did a good job in this matter." ”
As for the firecracker, Liu Yongan hasn't told his father yet.
One is afraid that the wind will be revealed, and the other is that he wants to surprise his father.
It's a pity that Liu Chengfang was only surprised but not happy at this time, because no one thought that Long Xing could hold on. Some people even took the opportunity to spread rumors: Liu Chengfang specially threw Liu Yonghui in Longxing, just to want him to stay alone in the lonely city, so as to kill him.
This incident caused a storm in the city, and Liu Chengfang almost didn't vomit a few liters of old blood when he heard it.
He's definitely been cheated!
Although he is only a national prince, no one cares about it. There are no tigers in the mountains, monkeys are called kings, and the Duke of Yasukuni is the biggest "official." He can't be like an ignorant woman or child, who tells others that he wants to be good for his nephew and that he wants to treat his nephew as if he were his own son.
Even Zhang, a person who doesn't go out much, heard such words, although her own quality is not high, but she also knew that the person who spread this word did not have any good intentions, and deliberately gathered all the people in the mansion together, "You know what kind of person our grandfather is, don't listen to the wind or rain." ”
Everyone bowed their heads and said "yes".
The next day, it was rumored that Liu Chengfang was going to take the opportunity to kill his nephew Liu Yonghui, and the housemother Zhang was afraid that people would know, so there was a ghost in her heart to deliberately restrain the family.
Liu Chengfang was anxious about Longxing's affairs, where could he take care of these little things, the Zhang family had no choice, so he had to stubbornly call Wang Jing over, "You should have heard the discussion about your third brother Minghui outside, you don't have a lot of people over there who specialize in handling news, it's better to help your father." ”
Wang Jing: "How can I help?" ”
When Zhang saw Wang Jing's indifferent expression, he was furious again, "That's your father, if he is not good, not only will you not be better, but the entire Liu family, including Jiqing, will be finished!" ”
Wang Jing: "That's a divisive plan made by the enemy, my father has a clear conscience, why is he afraid that others will make something out of nothing?" Do what you want, rumors stop at the wise. Facts speak louder than words, and they will soon see how powerful my third brother will be! ”
Rumors stop at the wise, is this a satire of her stupidity?
The Zhang family didn't care about these now, but asked Wang Jing anxiously: "Can your third brother really keep Longxing?" ”
"Yes."
Zhang got Wang Jing's affirmative answer, and his heart was much more stable. Although she dislikes Wang Jing more and more, she knows that as long as Wang Jing has said something, there is nothing that cannot be realized.
Facts soon proved that Wang Jing's words were not bad at all.
Although Xie Youliang surrounded Longxing, Liu Yonghui had a fire gun in his hand.
The artist is bold.
Liu Yonghui had a firearm in his hand, and in the face of Xie Youliang's 800,000 people, he opened the east gate of the city in a hurry and set up an empty city plan against the dense crowd of people outside the city.
It was autumn, and Xie Youliang's army was strong and brave, even if it was an empty city plan, there was naturally no reason to be afraid.
"Directly attacked it, cut off Liu Yonghui's head, and sent it to Liu Chengfang. Let the people of Quan Jiqing see how cold-blooded and ruthless he is, and see who still works hard for him. ”
The attackers were menacing, and the defenders were not to be outdone, and all those who entered the city fell.
Whoever fell down had a hole in blood, and blood gushed out from the wounds, staining the ground with blood, and piling up a high wall of people.
"Report to the king, the other party doesn't know what kind of weapon he has in his hand, and one of the people who looked at us fell to the ground and bled to death."
Staff: "It must be sorcery!" ”
As soon as they heard that it was witchcraft, everyone's backs were cold, and they had goosebumps, as if the witchcraft would soon entangle themselves.
When Xie Youliang heard this, he knew that it was not good, so he couldn't help shouting: "Pull it out and hit fifty boards, and if there is anyone who disturbs the morale of the army, it will be cut directly!" ”
In broad daylight, how can there be witchcraft.
In the middle of the Han army, there were not all people who didn't know anything, and naturally there were also Han people who had been officials in the imperial court who came over later, and hurriedly said: "Back to the king, I'm afraid there are firecrackers in the city." ”
If you haven't eaten pork, can you still see a pig go?
Xie Youliang's face changed greatly, "I didn't expect the Liu family to have such a strange person!" ”
Everyone was already a little stage frightened, and when they saw Xie Youliang's face, their hearts were even more bottomless.
Xie Youliang saw that everyone was looking at him, and quickly put away the loss on his face, and sneered: "I have 800,000 horses in my hands, why not be afraid of those few fire guns, surround Long Xing, and don't let a fly fly out." ”
yes, what if the other party has a firecracker?
Are they 800,000 still afraid of 40,000?
"Listen to the people in the city, we will watch from outside the city, waiting for you to die trapped inside!"
Liu Yonghui didn't know how many battles he had participated in, and he couldn't help but smile at his subordinates when he heard this, "They are afraid of our firecrackers, so they don't dare to attack the city at all." In time, the army will be withdrawn. ”
How much food do 800,000 people, each person get with only one meal a day?
He didn't believe that Xie Youliang would do this with him. (To be continued.) )
