Chapter 452: Water Army
Jiang Huai, the supervisor of Dazhou City, listened to Zuo Youying's nonsense, so he wrote a letter asking Yu Hualong for help at that time and sent it out.
However, the shepherd wolf felt that there was still a fire owed to this matter, so in the middle of the night, he called Pei Qihu up, "Seven tigers, take your soldiers and attack the city." ”
Pei Qihu slept in a daze, but he didn't expect Mu Tianwolf to suddenly give him such a trick, and immediately wondered: "General Mu, I heard you right, right?" You mean to siege the city now? Could it be that the bed crossbow and strong bow on the city tower have been disposed of by Zuo Youying? ”
Mu Tian Wolf looked back at Pei Qihu and said, "Even if Zuo Youying destroys all the things with great lethality at the head of the city, we won't be able to take Dazhou City with 10,000 horses." ”
When Pei Qihu heard this, he was even more confused, "In that case, why did the general order to attack the city?" ”
The shepherd wolf smiled slightly, and said: "It's just a feint, the bigger the noise, the better, all the arrows we carry are dipped in oil and ignited, and they will be shot into the city of Dazhou as a rocket!" ”
Pei Qihu didn't ask why, because he knew that the shepherd wolf must have a reason for doing this.
"All the soldiers obey the order, bring bows, arrows, and oil, and come with me!"
After a while, more than 10,000 soldiers and horses in Shangyongguan came to Dazhou City under the leadership of Pei Qihu, and the soldiers on the city tower hurriedly sent people to the Marshal's Mansion to inform Wu Zicheng, but when Zuo Youying pretended to be Wu Zicheng arrived, the city was already shouting and killing, and the rockets under the city were like locusts crossing the border, constantly shooting towards Dazhou City.
Seeing this, Zuo Youying clapped her hands excitedly, and couldn't help but sigh secretly, "Wonderful! With this trick, don't you worry that Jiang Huai won't take the bait! ”
The adjutant general on the side saw that his general was excited, and he clapped his hands, puzzled: "General, what do you mean by this?" The enemy army under the city is about to attack the city, how can you ......?"
Zuo Youying hurriedly said: "Ahem, I'm not in a hurry!" Hey, how is this good...... "Indeed, it's not just excitement that will clap your palms, when people are in a hurry, won't they also clap their hands and stomp their steps...... But when the adjutant general remembered his general's expression, he always felt that something was wrong......
"General, should we fight back? I don't think there are many enemy troops under the city, and they are also within our range, even if we are afraid that this is a decoy and dare not go out of the city to chase them, it is not a problem to shoot them off with our strong bow bed crossbow! ”
The deputy general's words made Zuo Youying nervous for a while, and he hurriedly said: "Absolutely not!" Since they haven't attacked the city yet, there is no need to waste arrows, otherwise when the imperial army's army begins to attack in a big way, we may be short of arrows......"
Just kidding, the people in the city are all Zuo Youying's brothers, how can they shoot arrows?
When the adjutant general heard this, he felt that it was the same, so he said: "The general is wise! However, these people don't seem to have the intention of attacking the city, they just howl and scream, suppress us with bows and arrows, and they can't even see the ladder and siege engine, they should not attack the city tonight. ”
Zuo Youying said: "Then don't worry about it, let them shout, let's go back to sleep, recuperate, and wait for work!" ”
Zuo Youying and the deputy general were not very panicked, but Jiang Huai, as the supervising army, couldn't sit still, the shouting and killing outside the city was louder than the other, and the burning arrows kept falling like a rain of fire......
When he saw Zuo Youying returning to the General's Mansion, Jiang Huai was the first to run over and said, "General Wu, how is the battle situation outside?" Why did you come back all of a sudden? ”
Zuo Youying hurriedly made a silent gesture and said, "Shhh...... Lord Supervisor, the offensive outside is getting more and more fierce, there are hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses in the imperial court, in my opinion, Dazhou City is not able to support the general's reinforcements to come, I returned to the house, just want to clean up the soft, and when the situation is not good, I will go on the thirty-six plan! ”
As soon as Jiang Huai heard this, he was frightened stupid, "Huh?!" This...... General Wu, can you run away from me...... I, I am the general's brother-in-law, my sister is the most favored by the general, if General Wu can save my life in this great disaster, Jiang Huai will be grateful, and in the future in front of the general, Jiang Huai will definitely say a lot of good things for General Wu......"
Zuo Youying pressed Jiang Huai's shoulder and said with sincere eyes: "Don't worry, Lord Supervisor, even if I don't care about others, can I still ignore you?" When the time comes, if I want to flee out of the city, I will definitely not forget the prison guard! ”
Jiang Huai was immediately grateful, and thanked him vigorously, feeling that Zuo Youying was the living bodhisattva in his heart.
As soon as it was dawn the next day, Jiang Huai followed Zuo Youying and planned to leave the city. Because Zuo Youying told Jiang Huai that Dazhou City would hold on for one more day at most, and it would be breached soon, and it would be too late if he didn't leave!
Jiang Huai's mind was muddy, and when he heard the news, he became even more restless, and hurriedly took a few of his beautiful concubines, as well as the packing he had packed last night, and rushed to the west gate of Dazhou City.
The news that Zuo Youying sent to Jiang Huai was that they would meet at the West City Gate at three o'clock and go out of the city together.
The plan set by Mu Tianwolf and Zuo Youying was to let Zuo Youying pretend to be Wu Zicheng, go to the city to fake the news that hundreds of thousands of troops from the imperial court were coming, and find an opportunity to rebel against the soldiers in the city, but Zuo Youying never expected that Yu Hualong would send such a cronie as Jiang Huai to Wu Zicheng's side to be the supervising army.
Therefore, Zuo Youying planned to use Jiang Huai to rebel against the defenders in the city......
When Jiang Huai came to the West City Gate with his loyal servants and concubines, there was no figure of Wu Zicheng, which made Jiang Huai feel a little uneasy.
However, it didn't take long for Jiang Huai to see Wu Zicheng riding a horse in a military uniform and holding an iron spear, "Hey, General Wu, you are here!" I've been waiting for you here for a long time, let's get out of the city and flee to Chengdu! ”
But Jiang Huai never expected that the next moment, this martial arts achievement in front of him raised an iron spear at him!
"Jiang Huai! You dog official, you accumulate wealth on weekdays for evil, and it is just a matter of oppressing the good, but now that the war is coming, you, as a prison army, actually want to escape from the battle and disturb the hearts of our army! If I don't kill you today, it will be hard to eliminate the hatred in my heart! ”
Let's say it, the iron spear in Zuo Youying's hand poked forward violently, piercing Jiang Huai's heart.
Jiang Huai didn't react to what was going on until he died, so he walked on Huangquan Road in a daze......
"General, no!" The vice president was one step late, and when he stopped fighting horses, he found that Jiang Huai had been killed by Wu Zicheng.
Zuo Youying looked at the deputy general and said, "General Shui, why not?" This guy escaped from the battle, if he didn't kill him, how could he stabilize the army's heart? If the army's morale is unstable, what are you talking about defending the city! Outside the city, there are hundreds of thousands of imperial troops, and if we want to hold out until reinforcements arrive, we will have to wait for at least six or seven days, do you think it is possible? ”
The lieutenant general also began to clap his paws anxiously, and said while patting: "Wow! General Wu, I understand this truth, but you don't know that this overseer is the general's brother-in-law! Now that you have killed him, the army's heart is stable, but how will we explain it to the general when the time comes! ”
Zuo Youying hurriedly pretended to be distressed, slapped his forehead and said, "It's broken, it's broken, it's ...... What a good thing that is! Fang just patronized the morale of the army, how could he forget this stubble! Wow...... Yaay Now if you can keep it, it's death, and if you can't keep it, it's death, General Shui, tell me, what should I do?! ”
The deputy general surnamed Shui closed his eyes tightly, looked up to the sky and sighed: "That's it, now that the big mistake has been made, it is useless to say anything, for today's plan, only Kaicheng surrendered ......"
Zuo Youying: "Hehe, what I'm waiting for is your words!" ”
Wu Zicheng threw the iron spear in his hand to the ground and said: "We are the soldiers and horses of the imperial court, although there is news of the rebellion of the hussar general, but our soldiers and civilians in Dazhou City have not made any rebellion, and now if we go out of the city to surrender, presumably the army of the imperial court will not embarrass us!" ”
Vice Admiral Shui listened to Zuo Youying's words, thought about it for a while, sorted out his emotions, and said: "General Wu is right, if we open the city to surrender, the court will not only not embarrass us, but will also entrust us with important tasks!" General Wu, without further ado, gather the soldiers in the city now and make things clear! ”
Zuo Youying had already thought of his words, and said: "Okay, then trouble General Shui to call all the soldiers from each battalion, and I will explain it to them!" ”
Vice Admiral Shui's execution ability is not bad, and soon the soldiers of Dazhou City were gathered together, Zuo Youying climbed the city tower and said loudly: "Brothers, I won't tell you that now there are hundreds of thousands of troops from the imperial court outside Dazhou City to attack, and Dazhou City is about to be broken, I asked Jiang Huai, the supervising army, to write a letter for help to the general." However, this dog official actually pushed back and ignored the life and death of our brothers, and took his concubines early this morning, packed up and planned to flee out of the city, and the general was so angry that he stabbed this guy to death with a spear! ”
When the soldiers heard this, they hurriedly said: "Good kill, good kill!" ”
"The general is mighty! The general is mighty......"
Zuo Youying spread his hands and pressed down lightly, signaling the soldiers to silence, and when the soldiers quieted down, Zuo Youying continued: "However, this dog official Jiang Huai is a close confidant of the general, and he is also the general's brother-in-law, and now I killed him in anger, and I am happy to have a big disaster at the same time......
Vice Admiral Shui knew that it was time for him to appear, so he hurriedly helped: "General Wu, don't say anything!" We all know your personality, what do you say, whether it is on the knife mountain or under the oil pot, we will follow you! Go to the soup and go to the fire, and do ...... away"
On the side, the navy army arranged by the deputy general began to build momentum, "General, why don't we open the city and surrender!" We are the team of the imperial court, guarding the land of Shu for the imperial court, the western imperial Tibetan, and the southern barbarians, not that we are not loyal to the hussar general, but he is now self-established as the king, which is really ......"
"That's right! If it is something else, we will appoint to follow the hussar general to do it, but this rebellious and rebellious thing is the one of the Nine Clans, and our family members are still all over the place......"
With the performance of Zuo Youying and Vice Admiral Shui, as well as the various water armies arranged by Vice Admiral Shui, they finally succeeded in bringing the rhythm up.
"Kaecheng surrenders, return to the imperial court!"
"Kaecheng surrenders, return to the imperial court!"
"Kaecheng surrenders, return to the imperial court!"
……
Seeing this, Zuo Youying finally breathed a sigh of relief, the task given to him by the Shepherd Wolf was finally completed without danger.
Zuo Youying pulled out the saber at his waist, pulled Jiang Huai's corpse, and neatly cut off Jiang Huai's head, "Brothers! As soon as the morning dawns, we will take the head of this dog official, open the city to surrender, and return to the imperial court! ”
Sure enough, when the first rays of sunlight shone on the gate of Dazhou City the next morning, the suspension bridge of Dazhou City was lowered, the city gate was opened, and the guard general Wu Zicheng took a group of soldiers from Dazhou City out of the city.
Wu Zicheng is of course pretending to be Zuo Youying, and what he is carrying in his hand is the head of the superintendent Jiang Huai, as well as the city defense seal of Dazhou City.
The person who came to accept the surrender was not Mu Tian Wolf, nor Pei Qihu, but Long Tu.
The plan set by Mutian Wolf and Zuo Youying is to spread the news that hundreds of thousands of troops from the imperial court are coming, and now that the soldiers of Dazhou City have surrendered, where can Mutian Wolf find hundreds of thousands of troops for them? There is no way, only to move out of the Three Princes Dragon Slaughter to save the scene!
Zuo Youying immediately said: "General Pei, General Hai, our Dazhou City is willing to surrender the city, but I don't know who this is?" ”
Although Long Tu was reluctant to say that he was the third prince of the empire, he could only borrow this identity now. "I am the third prince of the empire, Long Tu, General Wu rarely enters Beijing, so I don't know this prince yet, but I don't care, since you take the initiative to surrender and don't join Yu Hualong, then the court will not treat you badly!"
When the soldiers of Dazhou City heard that the three princes of the empire had come in person, and promised to ignore their previous suspicions, they finally breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts.
"Thank you, Your Highness, for your forgiveness!"
Long Tu continued: "Now, the army of the imperial court is divided into two routes, all the way to attack Jianmen Pass by dry road, and all the way to attack Rongzhou City by water, so the order given by the King of War to this prince is to lead the old department of Dazhou City and garrison Dazhou City, and there is no room for loss!" When the imperial army takes Jianmen Pass and Rongzhou City, they will march together in three ways and take Chengdu directly! I don't know if you are willing to work together with this prince to Gongwei Dazhou? ”
When the soldiers of Dazhou City heard this, they dared not obey, and hurriedly said: "It's all up to the orders of the Third Highness!" ”
