Volume 2 Qingzhou Zhipeng Section 22 Gaomi Wang Xiu
Under the bright sun, Wang Xiu, who was wearing a green shirt, stood in front of the gate with his hands, looking up at the clouds passing by from the blue sky with an indifferent expression. But a cadre of entourage behind him was looking at the camp in front of him with fearful eyes. In fact, it is no wonder that Wang Xiu's entourage would react in this way. In the early morning just three days ago, about 3,000 soldiers and horses suddenly appeared outside Gaomi City, and the people in the city closed their doors and did not dare to leave the city. As the commander of Gaomi County, Wang Xiu naturally couldn't sit idly by and watch the uninvited guest soldiers come to the city, so he sent a messenger to question the other party's intentions. Unexpectedly, the other party's reply to him was, "On the order of Cai Fujun, the commander of Qingzhou, I came to Gaomi County to escort the grain road." ”
Qingzhou Diancao Duwei Cai Fujun? Who is the commander of Qingzhou Diancao, Wang Xiu doesn't know. But he knew that there was only one person in the entire Qingzhou who could be called Cai Fujun, and that was Cai Anzhen, the young woman of Donglai County. And the people in Qingzhou are also Donglai's Maiden Fujun just went to Yecheng last year to visit the right general Yuan Shao, so it is self-evident who the Donglai soldiers are escorting grain and grass for at this time. In fact, Wang Xiu himself did not think that Beihai should be involved in the dispute between Yuan and Tian. However, with his understanding of the temper of the lord Kong, it was only a matter of time before Beihai was involved in the battle of Qingzhou. Moreover, Beihai will inevitably occupy Tian Kai's side, so even if Beihai has not yet started a war with Donglai at this moment, in Wang Xiu's eyes, the group of Donglai soldiers who suddenly appeared outside the city have become enemy troops.
And the course of events after that was not as Wang Xiu expected, this group of Donglai soldiers only spent one night to build the military camp in front of them outside Gaomi City. Not only that, the Donglai soldiers in the camp also sealed the various crossings leading from Gaomi City to the outside world. Anyone entering or leaving the city had to go through a strict check by the Donglai soldiers. If there are a large number of people, they will be directly "gifted" back to the city by the other party.
In fact, if the Donglai soldiers dared to attack the city, Wang Xiu was fully confident that he would return with a feather. But the other party obviously had no intention of attacking the city, and did not even levy food or provoke Gaomi. The Donglai soldiers in front of them were just surrounding Gaomi into a lonely city in the name of escorting the grain route. It is undeniable that the siege of 3,000 soldiers and horses may be overstretched, but the siege is more than enough. The 800 soldiers and horses in Wang Xiu's hands still had the strength to defend the city, but they were unable to break through.
This strange confrontation lasted until about the next day, and the thoughtful Wang Xiu had already realized that the other party was not trying to capture Gaomi, but deliberately wanted to isolate Gaomi from the outside world, or more precisely, to block his Wang Shuzhi in Gaomi City. Could it be that something happened to the lord's side?
Once he deduced the other party's intentions, Wang Xiu's first thought was the safety of Kong Rong in Duchang City. For Wang Xiu, who is now under the age of thirty, if it weren't for Kong Rong, who was only in his early twenties regardless of his background, he would not have today's achievements. Therefore, in order to repay Kong Rong's kindness, Wang Xiu has always devoted himself to assisting the lord who is ambitious and talented. Whether it was suppressing the Gaomi Renxia Sun clan at the beginning, or clearing the Gongshalu who was in Jiaodong, Wang Xiu always rushed to the front line to solve problems for Kong Rong. For this reason, Kong Rong has sighed to the people around him more than once, "If you can brave the difficulties, only the king will repair your ears." But over time, Kong Rong also developed a dependence on Wang Xiu. So much so that whenever someone invades Beihai, Kong Rong thinks of not leading troops to resist, but hiding in the tall Duchang City and waiting for Wang Xiu to rescue.
At this moment, Donglai obviously grasped Kong Rong's temperament, so he would first divide his troops to suppress Gaomi, and then slowly concoct Duchang. Thinking of this, where did Wang Xiu dare to delay any longer, and the next night he ordered two groups of soldiers and horses, one group attacked the Donglai camp at night, and the other group was personally commanded by him, intending to take advantage of the chaos to break through Gaomi. But who would have thought that the commander of the Donglai camp was also very good, not only was he not disturbed by the night attack, but even divided a hussar to block Wang Xiu and others back to Gaomi City. Thinking about it afterwards, Wang Xiu couldn't help but secretly feel annoyed, Gaomi's garrison was too small, and if he was given another 200 cavalry, this plan to attack the east and the west would be completed.
However, after a night of fierce fighting, Wang Xiu still stood in front of the Donglai camp with his current light and breezy appearance the next day. Since the military attack is not successful, then the text will be written. In short, even if he is soft and hard this time, he has to leave Gaomi and go to Duchang
As the rejection of the horse in front of the gate was moved, a team of brightly armored generals walked out of the Donglai camp. To Wang Xiu's surprise, the military general at the head looked unusually young, but he was in his twenties. But the calm temperament between his eyebrows shows that this person is by no means easy.
"Donglai Jun Sima Tang Shanwei has seen Wang Lingyin." Tang Ying clasped his fists and saluted respectfully to the visiting Wang Xiu. Although Tang Ying was not on the starting list of the expedition this time, Cai Ji allocated 3,000 soldiers and horses before leaving, so that he could be stationed on the Donglai border. Therefore, as soon as he received the flying pigeon from Cai Ji's side, Tang Ying rushed to Gaomi in the first place. As for Huang County, there are Zhang Qing, Huang Zhen and others in charge. At this point, Cai Ji can be regarded as using all the mobile forces available in Donglai. As for the garrison of several hundred soldiers and horses in various counties, they will not be moved unless they have to.
However, although Tang Ying's attitude was polite, at this time, Wang Xiu suddenly turned his face, shook his sleeves and pointed to the camp in front of him, and asked sharply, "General Tang, what is your intention in building this camp outside Gaomi City?" ”
But Tang Ying replied again and again with that pretext, "Back to Wang Lingyin, we are here to guard the grain road under the order of Cai Fujun, the commander of Qingzhou. ”
"Is it necessary to guard the grain road, and even interrogate passers-by? Do you need to meet our troops? Wang Xiu asked with a sneer.
"The last general guards the grain road, and when he encounters someone who has passed the customs, he naturally has to interrogate him clearly before he can be released. As for last night's battle, it was someone who attacked the camp first. Tang Ying retorted confidently.
Wang Xiu didn't expect the other party to say this, so he laughed in a hurry, "Then if the mansion wants to leave the city at this moment, can General Tang let him go?" ”
"No." Tang Ying categorically refused, "The lord of my family has an order, and he must not let the king order Yin leave the city." ”
"Don't let Wang leave the city? Hmph, the lord of the Ru family is Donglai Taishou, how can he manage Wang's Beihai master book" Wang Xiu said-for-tat.
"The lord of my family is currently the captain of Qingzhou Diancao. As long as you recognize Yuan Thorn Shi as the master, you should obey the order of the lord of my family. Please ask the king to make it difficult for Yin Mo to embarrass the last general. Tang Ying straightened up as she spoke, raised her hand and made a gesture to invite Wang Xiu back to the city. The soldiers behind him also stood tall and put on a posture ready to be forced.
Wang Xiu saw that the other party had put on a posture, and he knew that no matter how much he was entangled, there would be no result. So he immediately changed the conversation and said, "I want to see Captain Taishi." ”
"General Taishi is escorting the military rations to Licheng, and he is not in the camp now." Tang Ying replied.
"What about Master Liu?" Wang Xiu didn't give up.
"Master Liu and General Taishi accompanied him." Tang Ying refused again.
When Wang Xiu heard that there was no one who could get involved, he couldn't help but sigh abruptly, and then planned to return to the city to make another plan. But just as he turned around, he suddenly heard Tang Ying behind him say loudly, "The lord of my family wants to tell Wang Lingyin at the end." It can save people for a while, but it can't save a lifetime. Wenju Gong is a Confucian in the world, rather than living in a county, it is better to use talents in the court to become a great craftsman. ”
After listening to Tang Ying's words, Wang Xiu first stopped for a moment, and then accelerated his pace and walked towards Gaomi City.
Let's say that on this side, Tang Ying blocked Wang Xiu in Gaomi City, and he couldn't advance or retreat. On that side, Cai Ji also brought 12,000 soldiers and horses to the city of Duchang. As for the reason for sending troops. Naturally, it was Kong Rong's letter of rejection that did not know the height of the sky. To be honest, Cai Ji still has some admiration for Kong Rong. After all, in this world, those who dare to use thousands of soldiers and horses to call for Yuan Shao, who has hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses, are the only ones who raise their ears. But when this kind of hardness involves the lives of millions of people, it is not bloody and romantic at all. So at this time, Cai Ji still chooses to be a layman who is attached to a wealthy family, rather than a gentleman who is unyielding.
"The key to attacking Beihai is to suppress Gaomi. Wang Shuzhi is a person who is Yunwen and Yunwu, and he has a lot of prestige among the people of the Beihai Sea. As long as it is trapped in Gaomi, the prefectures and counties of Beihai will be like a plate of scattered sand. In the big tent, Guo Jia was shaking the folding fan given by Cai Ji, while analyzing the current situation in Beihai.
Regarding Guo Jia's analysis, Cai Ji deeply agreed. It must be known that according to the records of the historical books, Yuan Tan originally attacked Beihai after eliminating Tian Kai. Although there were not many troops in Beihai at that time, it also allowed Yuan Tan to fight from the spring of this year to the summer. In contrast, the battle is even longer than the destruction of Tian Kai. But it only took one day for Yuan Tan to actually conquer Duchang City. Although the details of the First Battle of Beihai are not recorded in the history books, it can be seen from the strong contrast between the two phases that it was not Kong Rong who was hiding in Duchang City that really commanded the battle at that time and stopped Yuan Tanjun's advance, but Wang Xiu who was on the periphery.
However, now that he has trapped Wang Xiu's swimming dragon in advance according to Guo Jia's plan, does it mean that the battle of Beihai can be ended faster than Yuan Tan in history? Thinking of this, Cai Ji couldn't help but smile bitterly at Guo Jia, "Feng Xiao's words are reasonable. It's just that in order to suppress Gao Mi, this time the government even bet on the spare soldiers and horses. If you can't capture Duchang City as much as possible, the province will be in big trouble. ”
"There are clouds in the art of war, ten are to surround it, five to attack it, and to fight it if it is doubled. Since the prince said that it was not ugly to win, he could not be stingy. Guo Jia said, put the fan away, pointed to the sand table in front of him, and explained, "Now most of the troops in Beihai are gathered in Duchang City, about 5,000 people. Although the strength of the Fujun army was superior to that of Kong Rong, the city of Duchang was thick and high, and it was not the best strategy to attack it. Therefore, Feng Xiao thought that the prince could first cut off the water source of the Beihai Sea, and then send someone to falsely claim that Gaomi had fallen and Wang Xiu was dead, so as to shake the heart of the Duchang army. I want to talk about Kong Rongshan, but he is ambitious and talented, and he doesn't know anything about military affairs. Once you hear the news of Wang Xiu's death, you will definitely be in chaos. At that time, the prince of the palace will set up a formation under the city to threaten it, and Duchang City will be able to break itself. ”
In fact, according to Guo Jia's original meaning, he wanted Tang Ying and Wen Rui to directly bring a large team of soldiers and horses to attack Gaomi, take Wang Xiu's head and then intimidate Kong Rong. But Cai Ji cherishes Wang Xiu as a talent, and wants to take it into his account, and refuses to hurt him in the slightest. So Guo Jia had to retreat and send Tang Ying to trap Wang Xiu. Then he and Cai Ji led Wen Rui and others to the city. Since it is a "fraudulent claim", there will be many variables. Therefore, when Guo Jia said this, he added, "But just in case, please prepare for a strong attack." ”
Cai Ji listened to Guo Jiarang to prepare with both hands, knowing that he still cared about killing Wang Xiu. In fact, Cai Ji also knew that killing Wang Xiu was the safest way. But this year, talent is too difficult to collect. After all, Wang Xiu is also a historical celebrity, and he must learn to be talented, and he must have a good character. And according to historical records, after Kong Rong was defeated and fled, Wang Xiu switched to Yuan Tan's command. It can be seen that he is not loyal to Kong Rong. Therefore, Cai Ji is confident that after taking Beihai, Wang Xiu will also be in the bag. However, Guo Jia's strategy to intimidate Kong Rong reminded Cai Ji that on the eve of Yuan Tan's attack on Duchang City, Kong Rong was so frightened that he left his wife and children and fled to Dongshan overnight. So much so that his wife and children were captured by Yuan Tan, and in the end, it was Yuan who returned his family to Kong Rong.
Thinking of this, Cai Ji suddenly had a new battle plan in his mind, but he saw that she immediately said to Guo Jiati, "Fengxiao, I don't know if this mansion has a plan?" ”
"But it doesn't hurt to say it." Guo Jia said happily.
So Cai Ji told Guo Jia the sudden idea. In fact, Cai Ji's so-called flash of inspiration is just a reference to the special operations in later film and television works, and he wants the newly collected batch of 300 strangers to cooperate with the rumors released by Guo Jia to sneak attack Duchang City.
After listening to what Cai Ji said, Guo Jia couldn't help frowning and asked, "Does Fu Jun want to learn from Meng Weijun to enable the generation of roosters and dog thieves?" ”
"Since Feng Xiaoyi is intimidating Duchang City. Why not go multiple ways? Cai Ji asked rhetorically with a smile. Anyway, Guo Jia had already asked her to prepare for both hands before, so it was better to just play bigger. By the way, you can also take a look at the actual combat level of Lin Fei's three hundred people.
"Fu Jun wants Kong Wenju's head?" Guo Jia thought about it and asked in a deep voice.
Cai Ji smiled and shook his head, "Definitely." What the government wants is a fire in Duchang City. ”
At night that day, Kong Rong sat alone on the top of the small building, reading the "Book of Rites" in his hand by the bright light of the bronze goose fish lamp. It seems that the 12,000 Donglai soldiers under the city are just illusory. In the face of such an indifferent expression of his own mansion, the servants in the Taishou Mansion were naturally admired. However, everyone didn't know that the reason why Kong Rong was so calm was entirely because of his confidence in Wang Xiu. Although the news of Wang Xiu's death had already come from outside the city, Kong Rong still firmly believed that it was Cai Anzhen who was cheating. Anyway, as long as Wang Xiu's body is not seen, Kong Rong firmly believes that Shuzhi will definitely come to the rescue this time. Even if the soldiers and civilians in the city have long been in a state of flux.
However, just as Kong Rong was waiting for Wang Xiu to come to the rescue with a scroll in his hand, he suddenly heard a noise outside the building. Kong Rong, who wanted to study with peace of mind, immediately angrily put the bamboo slip in his hand on the desk and shouted angrily, "Who is making noise?"
But I heard that a little guy outside the door immediately came to report in a panic, "Lord, it's not good." The Donglai army has entered the city, and fires have broken out everywhere in the city."
Listening to the little servant's reciprocation was Kong Rong's previous calm posture, and he could no longer maintain the reserve of a gentleman at this moment. But when he got up suddenly, he pushed the window to take a look, and saw that there were fires everywhere in Duchang City
The complaint is still more powerful than the original text~~~ Xiao Cai calmly sat in front of the formation and beckoned to Guo Jia, and Feng Xiao came to see the Lin family circus performance~~~ Remember to collect powder tickets~~~
