Chapter Thirty-Six: The Siege of the City
"Hahaha, the old man is finally back on the battlefield again, happy, so happy!"
The treasure knife in Laihu'er's hand waved like the wind, harvesting one head after another, venting the resentment in his chest for several years.
"Old horseman, don't be arrogant, Zheng Wenxiu is here!"
Zheng Wenxiu saw that Laihu'er was showing off his martial arts and wantonly killing his subordinates, and he was immediately furious, shaking his spirit, and the sword was like lightning, and he went towards Laihu'er.
"The people of the local chickens and dogs dare to be presumptuous in front of me to protect the children!"
Lai Hu'er sneered disdainfully, slapped his horse and danced his knife, and attacked Zheng Wenxiu.
Throat~~~
With a piercing sound of gold and iron, Zheng Wenxiu's head and body were separated, and blood was splashed everywhere, scattered everywhere.
"Ding Dong, come to protect the child array and cut the beam general Zheng Wenxiu, Zheng Wenxiu is 78, 76 in force, 63 in intelligence, and 52 in politics. Rewards the host brother with 8 soul points. ”
"Dingdong, the system has detected the ability to protect children, 92 commanders, 95 in force, 80 in intelligence, and 61 in politics."
"The traitor Zheng Wenxiu is dead, those who put down their weapons will be spared death, and those who resist will be killed!"
Laihu'er took Zheng Wenxiu's life with one move, and immediately with a horizontal knife, Wei Wei stood up, and shouted at the group of Liang soldiers.
"I'm waiting for the will, I'm waiting for the willing, and I hope the general will spare my life!"
Sergeant Liang didn't have much loyalty to Xiao Liang, and at this moment, the main general also became a headless ghost, and they put down their weapons one after another, kneeling on the ground and asking for surrender.
In just half an hour, the battle on both sides of the Yuan River had come to an end, and the 35,000 Liang troops stationed on the Yuan River had nearly 10,000 killed and more than 17,000 captured.
。。。。。。。。。
Changsha, Liang Gongfu
Although Xiao Mo was forced by the Sui army to retreat south of the Yuan River, because the Sui army helped him destroy Dong Jingzhen, he really lived a comfortable life without being restrained, but soon his comfortable days were broken again.
On the main hall, Xiao Mo looked at Xu Xuanche who was kneeling below with a pale face, and gritted his teeth and said: "Xu Xuanche, as the general of our army, you should know that when you retreated to Changsha, you wanted to use the Yuanjiang Heavenly Danger to resist the Sui army, but what about you, you will give away the Yuanjiang Heavenly Danger in the first battle, what should you be guilty of?" ”
Xu Xuanche was frightened by Xiao Miao's sharp tone, and said tremblingly: "Liang Gong, the Yuanjiang Heavenly Danger is lost, it is really not the fault of the last general, it is Zheng Wenxiu, he fell for the Sui army's tired tactics, and he was careless about the Sui army's attack, and he ignored the general's several reminders!" ”
"Really?" Xiao Mo asked incredulously.
"Yes, Liang Gong!" Xu Xuanche swore and said frankly, "When Hu'er attacked on a large scale that day, the last general immediately went to General Zheng to ask him to meet the enemy with his whole army, but he said that this must be a bluff of the Sui army, and he didn't take it to heart at all, and scolded the last general for making a fuss, and even took out his identity as the main general to suppress people. In desperation, the last general could only personally lead the headquarters of the army and horses out of the village to counterattack, but the enemy was outnumbered, and the last general was really unable to support, so he had to lead the army to withdraw from the Yuanjiang River! ”
"Zheng Wenxiu, you fool mistook me, you deserve death!"
Looking at Xu Xuanche's sincere expression, thinking about the ability performance of the two on weekdays, Xiao Mo had already believed Xu Xuanche's words for eight points, and immediately scolded.
After a long time, Xiao Mo spit out the evil anger in his chest, and said in a deep voice to Xu Xuanche: "Yuanjiang is lost, Yueyang County has no danger to defend, as Gu expected, at this moment, the Sui army is afraid that Yueyang has been occupied, then their next target must be Changsha, pass the order, order Guiyang, Hengshan, Wuling three counties to guard, order them to gather troops and horses, quickly go north to Changsha, Lone will fight to the death with Yang Gao Xiao'er here!" ”
Xu Xuanche arched his hand and said: "The last general will obey the order!" ”
。。。。。。。。。。
As Xiao Mo expected, after defeating Xu Xuanche and Zheng Wenxiu's troops, Lai Hu'er attacked overnight and quickly occupied the entire county of Yueyang.
At the same time, Yang Gao also led the main force to cross the Yuan River and joined forces with Yu Yueyang.
That night, Yang Gao held a banquet in the Yahou Hall of Yueyang County to entertain the generals and celebrate the success.
"Hahaha, the old general is really brave and extraordinary, come, I salute you for a cup!" Yang Gao picked up his wine glass and said to Laihu'er.
Lai Hu'er hurriedly picked up the wine glass and said, "Your Highness is very kind, and the old minister is afraid!" ”
Yang Gao smiled slightly, "Why be polite to the old general, you are the pillar of my Great Sui, and now you have made such a great achievement, it is appropriate to respect you for a cup!" ”
"Then the old minister is respectful, it is better to obey his fate!" Laihu'er smiled, picked up the wine glass and drank it all.
"Haha, the old general is really bold, do it!" Yang Gao laughed, and immediately tilted his head and drank all the wine in the cup? ”
Seeing that Yang Gao drank all the wine in the cup, Lai Hu'er smiled again, and said: "Your Highness, now there are about 50,000 defenders in Changsha City, and the old minister is ordered to be the vanguard, attack Changsha, and clear the remnants of Xiao Liang!" ”
Yu Yunwen, who was sitting on the side, said with a smile: "Don't be anxious when you come to the old general, it's not appropriate for me to attack Changsha City at this time!" ”
"Why?" Lai Hu'er's eyes widened and asked: "Now the defenders of Changsha are only 50,000, and it is easy for our army to break through, how can such fighters be missed?" At this moment, Xiao Mo must have transferred all the defenders of the three counties of Hengshan, Wuling and Guiyang to the north, once our army misses the fighter, and when the defenders of the three counties of Hengshan all rush to Changsha, it will be difficult to attack! ”
Yu Yunwen smiled slightly: "Don't be angry, the old general, and listen to me finish speaking!" ”
"Okay, you say." Laihu'er said with a little dissatisfaction.
Yu Yunwen said in a deep voice: "Come to the old general, now is indeed a good opportunity to take Changsha, but do you think, if Changsha is lost, then the defenders of Wuling, Guiyang and other places will definitely stop going north, luckier Maybe they directly chose to surrender like our army, but in case these people are some Xiao Liang's foolish loyalists, then they will choose to return to the county and continue to resist stubbornly, then don't we still have to fight county by county, isn't it even more wasteful of time?" ”
"There's some truth to what you're saying!" Laihu'er nodded thoughtfully.
Yu Yunwen smiled faintly: "On the contrary, if we leave Changsha City, then the Xiao Liang rebels in the remaining counties will raise a large army to rescue Changsha, and we can take advantage of the situation to set up an ambush on their way and defeat them one by one, so that we can easily recover the three counties of Hengshan, Guiyang, and Wuling!" ”
"What a plan!" Laihu'er has been a soldier for many years, and after listening to Yu Yunwen's analysis at this moment, he suddenly opened his mouth and said a little apologetically: "Mr. Yu, it's the old man who is too anxious, and he was offended just now, don't take it to heart!" ”
Yu Yunwen smiled and said: "The old general is polite, you are also worried about state affairs, how can Yunwen mind?" ”
