Chapter 109: Crashed with the Eight Kings
Blackstone Town.
Xiao Xinru had been waiting nervously, if it weren't for her inconvenience, she really wanted to chase Qin Yu in person.
From Mr. Wang's reaction, she could see that Xiong Wencan, the governor of the five provinces, was indeed very fond of Gongzi, otherwise the other party would not still stay in the county seat and wait.
With the support of Xiong Wencan, coupled with the talent of the son, the future will definitely be immeasurable, and maybe he can become a generation of famous generals like Qi Shaobao.
If this is the case, he will secretly accompany him for a few years, and when he gets bored, he will entrust Wan'er to him.
and then leave quietly, so that he can not only live up to his kindness, but also have a place for his daughter's future happiness, and she can also have no worries.
Xiao Xinru thought in her heart.
However, I have thought more than once that it would be nice if Wan'er did not have a favorite son.
But the fact is that the daughter's heart is afraid that she will no longer be able to tolerate other men in this life, and she understands the feelings of the girl.
However, God's will makes people, and the son doesn't like young girls, but he never forgets her as a woman, and he still wants to play tricks on her.
And under his tricks, he was unconsciously moved into deep emotion, and he couldn't continue to lie to himself after that night.
………
When Xiao Xinru received the words brought by Qin Yu, she was also heartbroken, but she was helpless, she knew Qin Yu's temper too well.
In the end, the endless grievances and fantasies could only turn into a sigh after all, and I wanted to send someone to inform Mr. Wang, but I thought about it.
But Wang Can waited left and right and didn't see anyone coming, so he was suddenly anxious.
I didn't care about being reserved, and hurriedly came to the town again.
And this time, I didn't even see the lady, so why didn't I understand what was going on?
That King Xiaohua was obviously determined to fight against the court to the end, so he immediately killed and rushed back to Xiangyang.
Mrs. Li did not embarrass him.
Meanwhile.
In a valley twenty miles east of Baokang City, Qin Yu was repairing with his army, but when the person sent to inquire about the news returned, his jaw dropped in shock.
"What do you say? There is also a large group of men and horses in the north heading towards Baokang County? ”
"Yes, the chief, they have more people than us, at least one or two thousand, men, women, and children, and they are mighty, and I am afraid that they will not arrive in the city tomorrow."
"Dog's day, it must be the bastard of the Eight Kings, damn, he doesn't fight early, he doesn't fight late, but Lao Tzu wants to fight, he also fights, and he makes such a big fanfare, coercing the people to come, and he is angry with me!"
Qin Yu beat his chest and scolded, the north of Baokang is Gucheng, which is almost close to Nanzhang.
And from Gucheng along the river, there is an official road to go, not the eight kings' people, he chopped off his head.
"Aren't you the one of the eight kings? Isn't that just right? ”
The red warbler looked at him with a puzzled expression.
"Silly girl, my name is King Hua, his name is the Eight Great Kings, do you think I am his subordinate?"
"I understand, you dare to do it alone, so you escaped from Gucheng to Nanzhang, okay! You shameless thief, it turns out that you have been bluffing and scaring people all along. ”
Hongying suddenly came to her senses, thinking that everyone had been deceived by him, and she had been worried for several days, and the army of the eight kings would suddenly kill, so she couldn't wait to rush up and give him two blows.
"Why don't you get tired of cheating?"
"So what now? Why don't we go and sneak attack overnight and knock down Baokang City first? ”
The red warbler was also half dead in anger, and he defected to him at the beginning, but a large part of the reason was that it was in the name of the Eight Great Kings, but now that the wood has become a boat, he has to ask.
"It's a sneak attack, those guys must have burned and looted all the way, do you think the people in the city will be defenseless?
And I'm afraid that if it wasn't for the help of Tanma, he would have been sent out a long time ago, but hateful, his eight kings actually ruined me. ”
Qin Yu hated itchy teeth, he originally planned to sneak attack Baokang and take it in one fell swoop with lightning speed.
Then recruit troops, train soldiers, and block the road news.
With the speed of information transmission in this era, it will take at least ten days for the officials of Xiangyang and Yunyang to react, and he will have at least a month and a half to prepare for sending reinforcements.
And during this time, he can not only take the opportunity to take Fang County again, but also have sufficient strength to deal with the encirclement and suppression of the official army of Xiangyang and Yunyang, as long as he repels them once, he will stand on his own.
Who would have thought that now it would collide with the Eight Kings, and the whole plan was really shattered.
"Do you want to fight then?"
"Why don't we just go back and fight Nanzhang County?" The red warbler's eyes suddenly lit up.
"Nonsense, there is a reason to turn back when you open the bow? Also, how many times have I told you, now that the time is not ripe to fight Nanzhang, why don't you listen? ”
Qin Yu reprimanded, then touched his chin and thought for a while: "In this way, pass the order, let everyone hide it, and find out the strength of the eight kings first." ”
Baokang is not as good as Nanzhang, poor mountains and bad waters, and the gentry and landlords almost all live in the city, and ordinary people will not go to the county seat to report even if they find them.
Similarly, because the gentry and landlords all live in the city, if they don't sneak attack, if they want to attack in a righteous and bright way, it will definitely be several times more difficult than Nanzhang County.
What's more, the county seat of Baokang is still built along the river, backed by the mountains, and although the city wall is low, it is built with stones.
He could only attack from the north and south, and he had already sent people to investigate these situations when he was in Blackstone Town.
……
Day 2, afternoon.
Sun Kewang arrived in the north of Baokang City with a large number of people, and as far as the eye could see, it was densely packed with people, cattle and horses.
This time, Lao Sun not only brought 3,000 men and horses from his headquarters, but also brought four leaders, with a total strength of more than 8,000 troops, plus the young and strong women and children, the old and weak, a full army of 16,000.
But Lao Sun was still not satisfied, Jue's troops were too small, and while setting up camp and building siege equipment, he sent people to attack everywhere and loot more people to serve as cannon fodder.
In the original history, the eight kings would not go south to Baokang and take Fang County until at least next year, but now it is ahead of schedule.
Obviously, Qin Yu's pair of small wings finally instigated the wheels of history and began to deviate.
It may be that Qin Yu kept saying that he wanted to fight Baokang and seek Yunyang in order to dominate the industry, which left a deep impression in the hearts of the eight kings.
So after Qin Yu left, Luo Rucai and Ma Shouying and other thirteen families also went to Junzhou, and after swaying for half a year, Zhang Xianzhong finally made up his mind to take Baokang south first, thinking that he would retreat, and then cross the river to fight Zuo Liangyu to the death.
And who to send to fight, it was enough to quarrel for half a month, and in the end, Li Dingguo, who was strong and strong, still failed to win against his eldest brother Sun Kewang.
Three days ago, Sun Kewang raised troops up the river, burning houses and destroying farmland along the way, and in a short period of time, half of Baokang's population was engulfed.
