Chapter 366

Zou Yu walked away, couldn't help but smile, everything is developing in the most ideal direction, so it is the best. Wang Shichong definitely wants to run, there should be no doubt about this, but if he wants to leave, he won't leave immediately, and he still has to prepare and arrange.

You won't have much time left, you have to make arrangements for yourself, and things have to be prepared for the worst to be sure. Because I don't know how Wang Shichong will choose, whether to sneak away with some people, or rush out with some soldiers and horses, or take all the people and horses who can be taken away.

If he takes all the people away, Li Shimin will definitely take the opportunity to occupy Luoyang, and only arrange some people to chase and kill, which is the most troublesome for himself, after all, to resist Li Shimin's army, you need enough manpower, the key is that Luoyang City is too big, and you can't take care of it, and when the time comes, a big war is inevitable, and the victory or defeat is not certain.

However, this is only the worst plan, if Wang Shichong is smart enough, he will only leave with the elite, which will make Li Shimin in a dilemma, whether to chase and kill or take Luoyang first. With his own presence, Li Shimin is worried that things will change, and he will definitely choose to take Luoyang first, and attack with all his might! After all, it is a bit difficult to divide the troops! It is likely that both ends will be empty.

Among those who can be used now are 15,000 brothers and sisters of the new Wenli; Zhang Gongjin 5,000 people; 5,000 cavalry, 3,000 guards, and 2,000 recently recruited people. There are still 30,000 manpower, as long as the loopholes left by Wang Shichong's departure are made up in time and hold on for a period of time, there will be no problem.

The biggest problem is that Wang Shichong left for a period of time, which is likely to cause chaos and must be suppressed quickly! First of all, there must be no chaos in the city! This must be ensured, otherwise internal and external troubles will be the most fatal.

When he returned to the barracks, he immediately summoned Gao Kan and others, and Xu Wenyuan and others also called over.

"Why did the prince suddenly recruit his subordinates and others?" In broad daylight, Zou Yu suddenly asked people to call them over, and Xu Wenyuan asked very puzzled.

"Wang Shichong wants to run! I can't take care of you lately. Zou Yu waved his hand.

"Wang Shichong wants to run!" Everyone asked in surprise.

"Not bad! Just don't know the exact time of departure? I don't know how to go? So we have to make arrangements in advance. Zou Yu nodded and told them in the affirmative.

"Hmmm! When Wang Shichong leaves, it will definitely be difficult to escape the eyes of those who have a heart, so he must prepare in advance. Bing Yuanzhen nodded slightly in agreement.

"Now there are two questions? Need attention! First? Wang Shichong left? Li Shimin will definitely attack the city with all his might? At this point, the king will arrange people to defend! The second point is the most troublesome? What if someone takes the opportunity to respond to Li Shimin? Someone needs to crack down! And I don't have that many people right now? He is also in charge of Luoyang City. Zou Yu looked around and said.

"There are still dozens of generals in the end? And dozens of family members? Able to organize more than 100 people. Cheng Zhijie hugged his fists.

"The last general is about the same!" Niu Jinda replied.

"There are only twenty or thirty members in my family." Xue Deyin replied.

"Food shortage? The family has long been dismissed, and there are only one or two old servants. Xu Wenyuan shook his head and said.

"You sent all your family members here, and I arranged someone here to protect them? Just in case something happens during the chaos in the city! And you take the grain? Stepping up the recruitment of some of the people? In the name of protecting your family! After recruitment? Unified to Zhijie and Jinda.

Once chaos breaks out in the city? The two of you immediately took the opportunity to act. Zou Yu thought for a while and said.

"Whoa!" Everyone immediately responded with fists clenched.

"Two days later? Come to me as long as you can, for you are all scribes, and if you are lost in the chaos, the king will regret it. Then Zou Yu told again.

"Thank you, Lord Wang!" Xu Wenyuan and the others said gratefully.

Zou Yu asked them to send their families and let them stay in time, and did not let them think that this was a hostage, knowing that this was to protect them, so he was naturally very grateful.

Although Wang Shichong wanted to escape, he also had to plan a comeback, so he would still bring some people who could be used. As for their Wang family, after going through so much, he still saw that there was a lot of waste, so he didn't think about how many people he had to take away, the three elder brothers Wang Shiheng, Wang Shiwei, Wang Shiyun, and the two sons Wang Xuanying, Wang Xuanfu was going to be taken away, and as for the others, they had their own destiny.

According to his thoughts, as long as he escapes, others can still be saved, at least Li Shimin will have some concerns, and at most he will be imprisoned.

As for whether he will surrender after he leaves, this is no longer in the scope of consideration, or it is a kind of self-deception in his heart, deliberately not thinking about him.

Wang Shichong summoned a large number of people into the palace for an interview, which naturally fell in the eyes of those who cared, and many people could see his predicament, and naturally had some guesses about his purpose, so the dark tide was surging, and many people came out of their homes and began to move around each other.

In the second year of Yining, September 16! Zou Yu received the news that Wang Shichong changed his guard in large quantities, and immediately understood that he was ready! The breakout is tonight.

Knowing that there were still some guards in the city, and the number of personnel had increased, Zou Yu finally breathed a sigh of relief. Because things did not develop in the worst direction, Wang Shichong did not think about taking them all away, and left some people to buy time for him.

Li Shimin's siege of the city does not mean that he just piles up soldiers and horses outside the city gate, not to mention that Luoyang is so big, he can't do it at all, even if it is an ordinary city, he doesn't do it like that.

The so-called siege is only to cut off the road leading to the outside of the city, and there are sentinels outside each city gate, and there is a team of men and horses nearby, so that if someone in the city sneaks up or breaks through, the sentinel can know, and the ambush can also be entangled, waiting for other people to support.

The soldiers besieging the city, when they are not attacking the city, are at least a mile away, otherwise they will be seen by the city at a glance, and what else will be ambushed! At the same time, it has been seen clearly by the city, and it is more convenient for people to deploy troops.

It's just that there are many trees and weeds outside the city now, and the guards in the city are not easy to find the eyes and ears of the enemy. This is not to say that the defenders of the city do not know to cut down the trees, it is certain that they will be cut down, but in the distance, there are rocks and weeds, and there is no way to clean them up, after all, one is not so rich in manpower, and the other is too difficult to clean up.

Wang Shichong's method was to send people to clean up the sentry first, then open the way with the elite, pass the blockade as quickly as possible, and finally use the gecko to cut off the tail, leaving some people to block the pursuers. With Zou Yu in the city, Li Shimin will definitely not let Luoyang go and chase him wholeheartedly.

Judging from the fact that Wang Shichong didn't communicate with him at all, he knew that he wanted to use Zou Yu as a shield and abandon him in the city, for this, Zou Yu could only say that he did a good job.

On the third watch, the clouds are thick, the moon is dark and the wind is high! The largest Dingding Gate in Luoyang City was quietly opened, and Liu Shili took a thousand people and went out in the dark. Of course, he would not be crazy enough to attack Li Shimin with this kind of person, and there was still a long way to go before Li Shimin's camp, and he was already discovered by the sentinels, and countless torches were immediately lit.

"Enemy attack!"

Bursts of shouts rang out.

"Kill!" Liu Shili's men and horses shouted, and beat war drums, and some people shot bows and arrows.

Li Shimin is still three miles away, he can hear the sound of war drums, Wang Shichong, who has suffered a loss, should not come out to harass again, he is very confident in this, so he only thinks that this will be Wang Shichong's desperate bet, wanting to attack at night and fight the winner.

Li Shimin believed that his arrangement would not be easily attacked, so he calmly let his guards wear armor and waited for the news to come with peace of mind.

I didn't have to wait long, and the guards came quickly with the messenger! It's just that to Li Shimin's surprise, three batches came in one go.

"Enlighten King Qin! There is a night attack by enemy troops in the eastern city! In the darkness of the night, there are many people. ”

"Enlighten King Qin! There is a night attack by the enemy army in the north city, and the number is unknown! ”

"Enlighten King Qin! There are enemy troops out of the city and night attacks in Yuanbi City! I don't know how many people there are! ”

Three messengers in a row, except for the different locations, brought the same news, which made Li Shimin immediately smell the conspiracy.

"Enemy night attack! Can you see clearly, is it a real night attack, or harassment? Li Shimin asked with a frown.

"It was indeed a night raid, with a large number of bows and arrows shooting into the camp! Under the light of the fire, there are quite a few people! There are thousands of them that can be seen. A messenger replied.

"Chengdong! The same is true (of the north of the city)! The other two immediately followed.

"Has anyone stormed the camp?" Li Shimin asked again.

"When the subordinates left, no one had rushed into the camp." The three messengers looked at each other, then shook their heads, and one of them replied.

"Your Highness! Beware of deception! Du Ruhui hurriedly reminded.

"Three places at the same time! didn't storm the camp, this is definitely not Zou Changfeng's people! Wang Shichong wants to run away. Li Shimin was not surprised, and smiled with the corners of his mouth raised.

"Ahh Du Ruhui looked at Li Shimin in surprise, and then asked, "To make such a big move, just to run away?" Your Highness still has to be careful! ”

"If you really want to fight us! How can it be that in three places, there are only a few people! This is the benefit of Wang Shichong choosing this time to run away, so that the king is worried and does not dare to chase him with all his might, if he is not mistaken, Wang Shichong has already begun to go out of the city. Li Shimin said very confidently.

"Your Highness! Please let the last general go and take the head of Wang Shichong! Qian Jiulong clenched his fists and said loudly.

"But you're right, beware of deception in the night! After the order was issued, people from all walks of life immediately found out how many people were attacked.

Li Mengwei! Qian Jiulong! The two of you lead 10,000 soldiers! Attack Luoyang now! Test whether Luoyang is empty!

Pang Qingyun, Fan Shixing! The two of you take 10,000 people and go outside Hanjia City! If a large group of men and horses go out of the city, restrain them at once, and send a message to the king! If you don't encounter it, take Hanjia City! Li Shimin was in high spirits and ordered loudly!

"Whoa!" Several people immediately responded, and then rushed out, and not long after, it was two fire dragons, rushing from the camp into the distance.
