Chapter 007: Qin Qiong's thoughts
The sky-high fire of Guancheng illuminated the faces of everyone in the Sui army. And just when an elite army of soldiers left the city, Yang Tong, who was not far from Guancheng, said with a smile: "Zhai Rang is here, let him go." β
The war drums suddenly rang out, and the Sui army, which was "catching fish" at the north gate, suddenly retreated, allowing the Wagang army to march north victoriously.
Qin Qiong asked, "Your Highness, are you chasing?" β
"Shixin, you chase first."
"Whoa!" Luo Shixin rushed away with the Xiaoguo army.
"Of course you have to chase! Someone needs to clean up the mess here. Yang Tong turned to Qin Qiong and said, "Shubao, aren't you very strange, why didn't I arrange for you?"
"Your Highness's clever calculation, the last general will not dare to speculate!" Qin Qiong lowered her head and said, but her tone revealed a hint of unwillingness.
"Haha!" After Yang Tong laughed loudly, he said, "Shubao, I know that you are the same as Shixin, and you are vengeful, do you believe me?" β
"Of course, His Royal Highness not only values love and righteousness, uses soldiers like gods, but also has peerless martial arts, and the last general admires it!"
To be honest, Qin Qiong didn't look down on Yang Tong before, but since redeeming Zhang Xutuo's corpse and decisively resolving the catastrophe of the bombing camp, especially the battle against Shan Xiongxin, let him know that he had lost his eyes.
But he didn't understand that Yang Tong knew that he was the strongest in martial arts among the four generals, but this important pursuit had nothing to do with him.
"Shubao, whether it is Shixin, Xing Yan, or Jinda, they are still young, and they are unstoppable in the charge, but they are young and vigorous, and they can't hold the rear. And you are strict in governing the army, prohibiting orders, and having the talent of a general. It is important to take advantage of the situation to capture Xingyang this time, but it is more important to hold Guancheng, once it is lost here, the back road of the army is cut off, and the Wagang army can avoid the tiger prison and go south to occupy the south of Xingyang and the north of Xiangcheng, and directly kill Henan County, which is empty of troops. Therefore, Guan Cheng cannot afford to lose it, and he must prepare for the worst. Moreover, there are tens of thousands of captives here, and if they are not handled properly, they must be thieves all around, and there is no way to clean up this scourge that has been reduced to pieces. β
Qin Qiong was shocked in her heart, and hurriedly clenched her fists and said, "Please rest assured, Your Highness, the last general will definitely defend the city to the death!" β
"Okay, with you Qin Shubao in charge of the city, our army has no worries." Yang Tong walked away with confidence.
Looking at the calm Yang Tong, Qin Qiong's heart flashed with a strong respect.
To the Great Sui!
Qin Qiong had already lost confidence and expectations, if it weren't for the revenge for Zhang Xutuo, he would have abandoned the army a long time ago. And Yang Tong made his dead heart recover a little.
Yang Tong's performance amazed him, first ransomed Zhang Xutuo's body with a lot of money, and then dressed him as a child of the royal family, and then asked the court for a posthumous gift!
In Qin Qiong's opinionββ
Yang Tong.
Resourceful, in a humiliating way, saved the remnants of the collapsed faith.
There is bravery, defeated by the world's famous, brave and good fighting Shan Xiongxin.
There is wisdom, and the city is burned by fire.
has responsibility, dares to cross the knife immediately, and singles out the world's famous warriors; Dare to charge.
Such a prince with no frame and good conduct, Qin Qiong thinks it is very good! It is completely different from the rotten Great Sui Heavy Ministers, like a clear stream.
β¦β¦
Soon after, the day came to the world again, above the head of Xingyang City! Xu Shiji walked around uneasily, worried in his heart, and Shan Xiongxin on the side also looked anxious.
When Xu Shiji heard that Shan Xiongxin was defeated, he hurried to Xingyang from the Tiger Prison Pass, but what greeted him was the news that Zhai Rang went south to take revenge.
This made him very anxious.
With the strong rise of Li Mi, the current Wagangzhai has shown the atmosphere of one mountain and two tigers, and he repeatedly asked Zhai Rang to either send Li Mi away or kill Li Mi. But Xu Shiji never dreamed that Zhai Rang would set up all the 'Pushan Public Operations' for Li Mi to be independent. He thought that he and Li Mi would each have one mountain, and they would be able to accommodate two tigers in one mountain, which was extremely stupid and naΓ―ve.
Although Xu Shiji also admitted that Li Mi had brought earth-shaking changes to Wagangzhai, he also admired his courage and vision, and dared to challenge the Great Sui, especially Li Mi's three prohibitions made Xu Shiji deeply agree, he believes that Li Mi is the world's hero and a person who can do great things, in comparison, Zhai Rang is much inferior.
But emotionally, Xu Shiji favors Zhai Rang, Zhai Rang is kinder than Li Mi, and he does not have Li Mi's viciousness and cunning, which is the biggest difference between the two.
He knew that Zhai Rang's intention to go south to manage the city was twofold: one was to avenge the dead Zhai Hong's father and son, and the other was to fight a victory that was not weaker than the Battle of Dahai Temple, so as to neutralize Li Mi's threat to him.
The idea is good, it seems to be good, but he is really worried, that Yang Tong has 40,000 regular troops, if the two armies face each other, Zhai Rang, who has the advantage in numbers, has no chance of winning, not to mention, in the face of a vengeful mourning soldier, this kind of army, how can it be made up in terms of numbers?
What worries him even more is that-
Boss Zhai's military level really made him anxious!
"Alas! It's all my fault, it's all my incompetence. "The proud martial arts were defeated by the arrogant Yang Tong, and Shan Xiongxin was hit unprecedentedly.
"Second brother, I can't wait any longer! I'm going to pick up my big brother. Xu Shiji hammered the city wall and said sharply: "If the eldest brother is safe, naturally everything is fine, if something goes wrong, you must remember that if you don't see me and the eldest brother himself, you must not open this Xingyang City." If Yang Tong really has a trick, then there will definitely be arrangements for Xingyang, and the second brother must especially prevent someone from defrauding the city. β
"World Achievements!" Hearing this, Shan Xiongxin's disgraced face showed a deep sense of worry.
"Haha! Second brother, don't worry! Xu Shiji said with a smile.
Hearing this, Shan Xiongxin suddenly sighed heavily and said, "Take care...!" β
When Xu Shiji was about to say something, he suddenly found that not far from Xingyang City, many figures were running over in a hurry.
"Alert!"
Xu Shiji hurriedly shouted, and the soldiers at the head of the city immediately opened their bows and arrows, and looked at the people who came vigilantly.
However, when they got closer, they were all Wagang troops, and they were all muddy and embarrassed, and the one at the front was a bald guy with a majestic and imposing momentum!
The entire army of tens of thousands of people is almost like this.
It seems that he has been hit by a fire attack.
Look at a bunch of bald guys.
Xu Shiji and Shan Xiong's confidence was cold for the first time!
Isn't this man riding a hairless war horse the Zhai Rang they want to save?
I only went yesterday, and I came back today, so I went in a hurry and came in a hurry, but fortunately people are alive and bring back tens of thousands of people.
"Open the gates at once, open the gates at once!" Xu Shiji looked at the big bald head who was ashamed and speechless, and finally confirmed that it was Boss Zhai.
When the gate was opened, Zhai Rang led the remnants of the army to rush in.
After half a cup of tea, the ground suddenly shook, and after Xu Shiji looked over, he saw that there were one or two thousand Sui troops from the south who swept fiercely, and kept shouting loudly: "Kill!" β
"Not good!" Xu Shiji suddenly thought of a terrible fact, and shouted with a pale face: "Close the city gate quickly!" β
"The cavalry is a few miles away, and there is still time!" Shan Xiongxin said confusedly.
"Second brother, how can the cavalry not catch up with the foot soldiers?" Xu Shiji shouted hysterically in shock.
Shan Xiongxin's pale face turned pale.
Right now! As if in response to the cavalry in the distance, an earth-shattering shout was heard from below the city.
"Kill! Revenge. β
Under the city, Pei Xingyan, Niu Jinda and nearly 10,000 foot soldiers immediately threw away their disguises and shouted angrily, and suddenly, these soldiers from Zhang Xutuo's remnants turned into death, killed wantonly, and slashed at the Wagang army!
"Revenge."
"Revenge."
"It's Zhang Xutuo's remnant army, Xingyang can't hold it! Quickly answer the eldest brother and retreat to the direction of Tiger Prison Pass. Xu Shiji forced himself to calm down and immediately ordered to evacuate.
There were 30,000 soldiers entering the city, let alone 30,000, who knows how many enemy troops there were? What made him even more depressed was that these enemy troops were actually brought back by Boss Zhai.
But, so what?
Escape matters!
