The Young Prince Chapter 101 Wu Chu's Rebellion VIII
When Liu Bi ordered Tian Lubo to send troops, Tian Lubo led 20,000 troops to attack him, but only a few thousand soldiers were left when he returned in two hours.
Some of them were even hit by arrows, and they ran back by will.
When Tian Lubo turned around and led the army to flee, he was hit by an arrow in the back, and before he entered the camp, he fell off the war horse.
Seeing this, the rest of the soldiers hurriedly stepped forward to help, and one of them shouted, "Go to the healer quickly!" to save the general! ”。
When Tian Lubo woke up, he was already lying in the military tent, and he only felt a sharp pain in his back.
When I looked up, I saw Liu Bi standing in front of me.
"The last general failed to attack Zhou Yafu's camp, and asked the king to punish him!" After speaking, Tian Lubo struggled to get up and kneel.
"General Tian doesn't have to get up, the widow has already learned from the rest of the people that Zhou Yafu was so vicious, he had already ordered the crossbowmen to prepare, and our army would suffer such heavy losses!"
He also said: "General Tian is recuperating from his injuries for the time being, and the widow will send someone to lead the army tomorrow to call for battle, and he will definitely lead Zhou Yafu out of the camp."
After speaking, Liu Bi turned his head and left.
Tian Lubo lay on the bed and sighed: "It's difficult to lure him out of the camp."
Sure enough, in the early morning of the next day, Liu Bi sent Huan Xing to call for battle in front of Zhou Yafu's camp, but for several hours in a row, there was not the slightest movement in the Han military camp.
In the afternoon, Huan Xing saw that the battle could not be called, and the pennies scolded Zhou Yafu in unison, but the Han army was also as stable as Mount Tai and did not move.
Later, there was no other way, and even Zhou Yafu's dead father, Marquis Zhou Bo, was scolded.
At this time, the soldiers in the camp were very convinced of Zhou Yafu, the commander, and the name of Zhou Bo in the northern and southern armies has always been quite prestigious.
There are even several candidates who want to go to the handsome tent, begging Zhou Yafu to give an order, and the leader of the troops will appear, swearing to kill this thief who spoke wildly.
But I didn't want to, and I hit a wall when I entered his handsome account. Seeing someone coming, several soldiers immediately stepped forward to stop him, "The captain strictly ordered that you sleep peacefully in the tent today, and no one should disturb you."
Qu Zhou Hou Li said: "We have important military sentiments and want to report to the captain, and I hope to pass through."
Seeing this, these soldiers gave up their hands and said helplessly: "Don't blame the military marquis, it's just ...... But at dawn today, the Lieutenant decreed that no one should be allowed to enter the account and disturb him, except ...... Unless ......".
Seeing that the soldier stammered, Li Ji hurriedly said, "Unless why? Come quickly".
"Taiwei said, except for the edict of the Son of Heaven so far, the rest of the people will not be able to see it."
"Lao Tzu is scolded! The son lies in the big tent, how can there be such a gift in the world? After finishing speaking, Li Ji scolded and was about to turn around and leave.
At this time, I only heard someone in the account say: "Scolding my father, how can I not hate him, but if I go to war, Wu Chu will fight to the death, and my army will definitely suffer heavy casualties."
The Son of Heaven ordered me to lead all the elites of the Han army out of the customs to quell the rebellion, and I want to ensure that the soldiers of my Han army will not die in vain because of the anger and impulse of one of the commanders, what does Qu Zhouhou think of my words? ”。
Li Ji and the others turned their heads to look, but it was Zhou Yafu who came out of the big tent.
Hearing Zhou Yafu's words, the generals present sighed, "No wonder Emperor Xiaowen once said that General Yafu is also a real general!" ”。
In this way, everyone bowed and said: "What the Taiwei did is very much, this is our inconsiderate consideration, I hope the Taiwei will not blame!" ”。
As soon as he finished speaking, he turned and left, returned to the camp, and calmed the hearts of the soldiers.
No matter how Huan Xing ordered people to call the battle, there was no movement in the Han army camp. But as soon as the soldiers approached, arrows fell from the sky.
In order to prevent Wu Chuzhi's attack, Zhou Yafu ordered people to secretly lead thousands of troops to the Luoyang arsenal with hundreds of carriages to transport bows and crossbows and arrows to the camp.
Therefore, the soldiers were ordered to shoot the rebels whenever they saw them within range of their crossbows......
Huan Xing was originally a strong general, but Huan Xing, who fought like this, had no way at all, and finally had to withdraw his troops and leave......
However, at this time, Liu Bi received a report that Liu Wu, the king of Liang, was leading his army in the direction of his army, but camped a hundred miles away.
One person asked, "Great King, do you want to divide your troops to serve King Liang?" ”。
"Set up camp a hundred miles away, Liu Wuxiao'er will not dare to attack our army, don't pay attention to him, entering Xingyang at this moment is the priority of our army!"
In the next few days, Liu Bi ordered Huan Xing to lead the army to attack Zhou Yafu's camp in several directions, but what he was waiting for was still a rain of arrows in the sky.
Every time at dusk, Wu Chu's soldiers all saw bursts of smoke rising from the Han army's barracks.
And they themselves can only drink porridge with only dozens of grains of corn in the bowl, and they have to risk death to attack the Han army during the day, but the food they eat every day is decreasing day by day, and the soldiers of Wu Chu are all hungry with their chests against their backs, and they can't lift a trace of spirit.
……………………………………………………………………
However, when Liu Wei and Liu Wu, the king of Chu, were discussing what to do, a soldier hurriedly reported to the account: "King, there are dozens of people in the army today who want to escape, and they have been captured at this time, so I have come to report to the king, I don't know what to do?" ”。
At this time, Liu Bi had been cornered by Zhou Yafu, and when he heard that there were soldiers who wanted to escape, he said angrily: "Kill them all!" The widow treats him well in the kingdom on weekdays, but when the widow is in danger, what is the use of such an ungrateful man! ”。
"No!".
However, Liu Wei never imagined that this defection was a harbinger of the defeat of his army............
That night, in a Wu army barracks, the soldiers who should have fallen asleep were unable to sleep because of hunger in their stomachs, and none of them fell asleep.
A young man who was only ten years old suddenly cried bitterly, and the people on his side hurriedly got up and leaned forward and said, "Why is Ah Lang crying? ”。
Only then did the crying young man turn his head, "Brother Wang Ping, I haven't eaten for several days, and I'm hungry and unbearable, so that's why I'm like this."
At this time, the rest of the people also sat up, "Who in this barracks is not hungry?" I don't know if we will live until the day."
At this time, the young man named Wang Ping said: "The barracks we are waiting for are close to the barracks, if we don't escape at night, there may be a way to live."
As soon as the young man said this, the people in the barracks were a little nervous.
However, he saw a person say, "How can you escape?" Some of them fled today, but all of them were caught, and they were all killed, and if they fled at this time, they would have died on the spot."
After the dozens of people who escaped were beheaded, Liu Bi even made the whole army inform the whole army and let the soldiers know that this was the fate of the deserters.
The people in this barracks all saw the dozens of bloody heads that were being carried and paraded in the army, and when they heard this person's words, they were so frightened that they immediately retracted their thoughts of fleeing.
But he didn't want to be in front of him but said: "I'm afraid that he will do something, even if he doesn't escape, he will be starved to death, and when I escape, maybe there is still a possibility of survival!" Ah Lang stays until late at night, and my brother will take you out! I'm sure you'll find a bite of corn to eat! ”。
The words of this young man made all the soldiers in the camp silent, yes! If you don't escape, you will starve to death, and if you escape, you will not have a way to live.
Immediately, more than 30 people in this barracks decided to climb over the barracks in the middle of the night and flee to find a way to survive.
In this way, until late at night, Wang Ying secretly lifted the curtain of the barracks and looked out at the people patrolling the camp at night.
When he saw the patrolman walking by, Wang Ying turned around, waved his hand, and whistled: "Hurry up."
Yan Bi picked up the young man and quietly walked to the barracks, and when he reached the side of the barracks, he said, "Ah Lang, climb up quickly."
After finishing speaking, Wang Ying pulled the young man to the fence of the barracks, "If I go up, what should my brother do."
Seeing the people next to him climbing the fence one by one, Wang Ying became anxious, "Go up quickly, I will definitely walk with you."
In this way, Wang Ying ordered the short boy to step on his shoulder and climb up.
Seeing that his younger brother had finally escaped, Wang Ying smiled and climbed up the fence.
However, when Wang Ying had just jumped out, he heard a scream and fell from the camp.
At the same time, he saw the fire in the middle of the camp and shouted, "Go and gather the soldiers!" Someone fled! ”。
Wang Ying was busy pulling his younger brother to run like crazy, and he didn't stop until he was tired and collapsed on the ground.
When the two woke up, it was dawn the next day, Wang Ying hurriedly woke up the young man on the side, "Ah Lang, hurry up, you and I have to flee quickly, I can't say that we will run into the person who is searching for it!" ”。
In this way, the two dragged their bodies without physical strength and slowly walked forward.
But these two were not captured by Wu Chu's army, but were encountered by scouts sent by Zhou Yafu.
Seeing that the two were wearing Wu army armor, he captured the two and brought them to the Han army camp.
This scout entered the camp and hurriedly reported to Zhou Yafu, "Captain Yu, at the end of today, I will catch two Wu soldiers more than ten miles southeast of my camp."
Hearing that it was Wu Jun's meticulous work, Zhou Yafu ordered him to bring the two to the big tent and wanted to be himself.
Wang Ying and the others were arrested, they were already afraid, and they were even more frightened when they were taken to Zhou Yafu's big tent, and the two hugged each other and cried how much it hurt.
However, Zhou Yafu saw clearly at this time, where is this meticulous work, although he is also wearing Wu Jun armor, but at a glance, he knows that he is only two teenagers who have not yet reached the crown.
Only then did he say, "Hugh is going to cry, who are you two!" ”。
Wang Ying was busy kneeling down and telling him and his younger brother about their escape from the Wu army.
"Oh? Are you the one who escaped from the Wu army camp? ”。
"Exactly, I have been out of food for many days, my brother and I are hungry, so we escaped last night, begging the general not to kill my younger brother, who is only fourteen years old, begging the general to spare his life!" After speaking, the king should not stop kneeling and kowtowing.
Hearing this, Zhou Yafu laughed, "God really help me!"
Zhou Yafu was already estimating how Wu Chu's food would be cut off now, so he would send scouts to investigate, but he didn't want to think about it for half a day, so he knew that Liu Mi's army had been out of food for several days!
"General Ben will not kill you both!".
After finishing speaking, he said to the soldiers on the side: "Lead these two people down to eat, and after eating, prepare dry food for them, so that they can eat on the way home."
"No!".
Hearing that there was food to eat and dry food to take home, the two immediately turned crying into laughter, knelt on the ground and kowtowed to thank them: "General Xie help!" General Xie helps".
