"The Golden Crow herald! Miscellaneous people, etc., give way! ”

Tonight, the fierce battle outside the city is in full swing, and the herald soldiers are galloping around in the city, Xu You expects that after the accident on the side of the Dingxian Ya, due to the serious shortage of troops, and I don't know how many enemies have mixed in, Du Mingyu will temporarily mobilize the water army of the East Gate to enter the city to assist in the rebellion, which is also the only reserve army he can still mobilize at present. Therefore, when Wang Fu and the others attracted a large number of pursuers, they escaped from the back garden over the wall with Dark Yao, and cautiously meandered along the criss-crossing alley paths, and stopped at a right-angled intersection.

This is the main road to the East Gate Wharf, if there is really a herald to go to the wharf as Xu You expected, then this can only be taken. The two men waited in ambush on the rooftops of the street for about a quarter of an hour, when a man in a dark gold uniform rode a horse and shouted military orders, and galloped past them right under their noses.

In the next moment, the darkness disappeared, and his figure appeared silently behind the herald like a ghost, his fingers stretched forward and gently crushed his throat, and then leaned into his arms to search, and sure enough, he found a fish talisman for mobilizing troops.

The whole process was completed in one go, just like the herald who cooperated with the dark to rehearse countless times, and played a perfect piano sound hand in hand, without any flaws and stagnation, with a wonderful and unique beauty, it can be seen that the assassin who was able to become famous in the world before was not in vain.

Grabbed the reins with one hand, waited for Xu You to come down from the roof, secretly pulled him on the horse, and threw the body into the grass on the side of the road.

The Jin Wuwei pretended by the two was originally Du Mingyu's guard, and he also played the role of a herald in wartime. The two of them galloped on horseback, all the way unimpeded, without arousing suspicion, compared to An Yuxiu's step-by-step killing, everywhere is dangerous, it is really much more free.

When they arrived at the East Gate Wharf, they vaguely saw twenty or thirty fighting ships of various types cruising in the nearby waters in the fog and shadow, and they should have also noticed the abnormal movement in the city, and sent about two hundred sailors ashore to wait in formation to make an emergency.

Four armor soldiers came out of the queue, holding waist knives in their hands, waiting for the battle, and said in a loud voice: "Come and dismount!" ”

Sigh!

The horse raised its head and neighed, Dark Yao and Xu You turned over and dismounted one after another, and Dark Yao showed his card and said: "In accordance with the sacrificial wine order, General Qi's headquarters immediately gathered to the east, ready to meet the Shanghai Flood Army!" ”

"What?"

The armor soldiers looked at each other, hurriedly checked the cards, omitted even the routine questioning, and directly took Dark Yao and Xu You to board one of the flagships. The leading general of the navy army was named Qi Luo, and when he saw the dark Yao, he couldn't help but laugh and said, "I remember you, you came to give an order last time!" ”

Secretly said: "Yes, I saw the general before the second half of the month. Xu You only knew at this time that the reason why Dark Yao chose this person to impersonate was not only because this person was silent, but also because he was familiar with the sailors at the dock, and the risk of being detected could be minimized when he escaped.

"Get up, what's going on in the city? How are there fires everywhere, it's all a mess! ”

Darkly shook his head and said, "I'm here just to pass on the sacrificial wine order, and I don't know anything else!" ”

Qi Meng was not angry, and said with a smile: "You are extremely strict-mouthed and don't like to talk much, and it was the same last time, so I remember you!" Okay, what about the fish charm? ”

Because An Shiyue is also known as An Shihu, Chu Guoguo Dynasty and the queen, the tiger character, changed the tiger charm to the fish symbol, where the transfer of more than 50 troops, must meet the two for one. The Heavenly Master Army obviously continued this strategy of commanding the troops, Xu You handed over the collected fish talisman, took the part standing on the side, turned around and respectfully handed it to Qi Ming.

Qi Luo held the fish talisman and didn't rush to investigate, he looked at Xu You casually, and suddenly said: "This little brother has a very raw face, when did he enter the Jin Wuwei?" ”

Xu You said lightly: "I followed Senior Brother Chiba to work elsewhere before, and I just returned to Qiantang with the sacrificial wine not long ago, and the general felt that it was natural to be born. ”

Chiba was the young Taoist priest who followed Du Mingyu when he was gathering at Qiantang Lake, but this time Xu You was captured, but he had never seen him, so he must have other priorities. So I took a risk and gambled that Qi Miao knew Chiba, but he didn't know Chiba's specific whereabouts.

Of course, if Chiba has already died in battle, then all the work has been lost. But sometimes the mechanism is exhausted, and the rest can only bet on luck.

Xu You had told He Wei before that luck was on our side, and now, he still thinks so!

Qi Luo looked at Xu You, his eyes were full of dissatisfaction, and he snorted heavily, and did not continue to dwell on this topic. He wasn't suspicious, there were more than 100 people in Jin Wuwei, he wouldn't have seen more than half of them, and he wouldn't have more than ten people who could remember their faces, but if he asked casually, it was boring to be robbed.

With a calm face, he took the other half of the fish talisman, snapped it into one, and the wrong gold inscription on the fish spine became clear, writing "The talisman of the armor, the heavenly master is on the right, and the dragon is on the left", which is a fish talisman specially made for the water army, and the dragon king is the main water, so it is called the dragon king. At that time, the right was respected, and Sun Guan was really a big breath, and even Long Jun had to succumb to the left.

"What do you say about sacrificial wine?"

Secretly said: "The sacrificial wine ordered the general to prepare for war quickly, and the Hudu Water Army has defeated the Ming pirates and is about to march west to relieve the siege of Qiantang." Our boat division immediately attacked, blocked the enemy halfway, and exalted its prestige in the river, so as to deter the remnants of the enemy outside the city, and it was a complete victory! ”

"The Ming pirates are defeated?" Qi Meng was shocked and said: "I only got the news a few days ago, the Ming pirates set up an ambush in Narcissus, and burned the three ships of the Shanghai Navy in the first battle, which can be described as a big victory, why is this defeat?" ”

Xu You said coldly: "The general has been on the battlefield for a long time, doesn't he know the truth of the rapid changes in the war? The battle of Narcissus was a trick of the opponent to feint and defeat the arrogant enemy, and the pirates thought that the Hudu Navy was nothing more than that, and they attacked the enemy lightly, but they were ambushed and suffered heavy losses. ”

"It's possible......"

The stakes are very high, and Qi Miao can't care about Xu You's attitude, and Jin Wuwei is mostly an arrogant and rude person like him, but most of the generals who command the army outside have suffered this kind of cowardice.

After taking two steps back and forth, he stopped and asked, "Is the news reliable?" ”

"The sacrificial wine has its own source of information, and if the general does not believe it, he can send someone to the city to inquire about the sacrificial wine. However, I have said a lot, tonight there are martial arts masters who have mixed in, wantonly arson and disturbed, and disturbed the hearts of our army. The mood for sacrificing wine was very bad, and the military order was clear, ordering the general to leave immediately without delay! ”

"So, this side of the East Gate?"

"Later, there will be 500 parts to take over the defense of the east gate, but the fierce battle between the west and the north is urgent, and there will be no manpower for a while...... The general doesn't have to worry, the Fuzhou soldiers are trapped under the city wall, and they have no spare strength to covet the East Gate, not to mention that they don't have boats, even if they know that the East Gate is empty, it is impossible to put on their wings and fly over!

Thinking of the strict military law of the Heavenly Master, Xu You was reasonable, Qi Luo no longer hesitated, and said: "Please return the two of you to sacrifice wine, I am ordered to go on the expedition, not to annihilate the Shanghai and desecrate the water army, and never return to the division!" ”

Because it was wartime, the ship always had enough food, vegetables and fresh water for more than ten days, and there was no need for resupply, and it could immediately lift anchor and sail. Xu You and Dark Yao stood on the shore, looking at the sailing army, glanced at each other, and laughed at the same time. They didn't expect things to go so smoothly, but it wouldn't be long before Du Mingyu would notice the abnormal movements of the water army, and Qi Meng would also find out about his grandmother's big deal.

If you don't leave now, when will you stay?

Secretly squatting on the edge of the dock, making a strange cry from his mouth, the frequency was not high, but it rippled on the surface of the water. After five breaths, a wet human head appeared in the water not far away, grinning at Xu You and said, "Lord Hao, if you don't see each other for a day, it's like every other autumn......"

"Don't talk nonsense, what about the water dragon lead?"

Stunned threw out two water dragon leads, Xu You and Dark Yao slipped into the water, put a curved straw on the water dragon lead on their mouth and nose, stretched out of the water surface for a few inches, and quietly left the dock.

The dragon enters the sea, the tiger runs to the mountains,

Xu You is very difficult to get rid of, his whole body is brisk, and the dark and bottomless cold waterway in front of him is like a fairyland!

Swimming more than ten miles upstream, the three of them landed in a secluded place, secretly and stung, they should have a round with Zuo Yi who was waiting in front, and then immediately rushed to Wu County, but Xu You insisted on returning to the Fuzhou military camp.

He still couldn't let go of Su Tang!

This has nothing to do with love, it's just a little bit of kindness left for the weak in troubled times!

"Report, someone outside the camp claims to be Qiantang Xu You, and he wants to meet the military commander and offer a strategy to break the city!"

"Xu You?" Qiu Yuan was overjoyed and said, "Hurry up, please!" ”

One of the purposes of the siege of the Fuzhou soldiers tonight, regardless of casualties, is to cooperate with the outside and create an opportunity to rescue An Yuxiu and Xu You. An Yuxiu had been successfully rescued, and was escorted to Wu County by the elite of the three hundred prefecture soldiers and many martial arts masters, but Xu You was lost in the sea and completely lost his faith.

"You're Xu You?"

In order to prevent the assassination, Xu You and Dark Yao were escorted into the military tent with their hands tied behind their backs, and Xu You said loudly: "Xu You in Xia Qiantang, meet the military commander!" ”

Qiu Yuan looked at him intently and said, "How did you escape?" ”

"How to escape from thieves is a long story. But I'm not here for small talk, but for advice, and if the commander wants to break the city, now is the right time! ”

The battle in front was too tragic, the northern city changed hands several times, and the corpses piled up under the corners of the wall were stacked several meters high, but the head of the city was still firmly in the hands of the Heavenly Master Army, and the southern city had not even touched the city wall until now, and the morale of the tribes was low, and they didn't know when they would collapse. Qiu Yuan only had 3,000 troops left, and he was still hesitating whether to press them all, if he won, he would naturally be happy, but if he was defeated, it would undoubtedly be a fool's dream to organize a large-scale attack.

Xu You's words gave Qiu Yuan more choices, and he didn't care about asking anything else, and said, "Please speak up!" ”

"I pretended to be Du Mingyu's Jin Wuwei, pretended to pass on the military order, and transferred the sailors stationed at the East Gate Wharf to Shanghai, and the military commander only needed five hundred elite soldiers, and landed from the East Gate by boat, and killed the thieves by surprise, and then attacked inside and outside, and the Qiantang will be broken!"

Before Qiu Yuan could answer, a master bookkeeper standing behind him reprimanded: "What nonsense, if you are really Xu You, who has been in the hands of thieves for many days, how can you pretend to be Jin Wuwei?" Even if Qi Ming's dog is blind and doesn't recognize you, he can always recognize Du Mingyu's fish talisman. If there is no fish talisman, how can you listen to the order to mobilize the department? Military commander, this person must be meticulous and deliberately lure our army into an ambush. If my prediction is correct, the Dongmen Wharf must be empty of ships and people at this time, but I don't know how many ambushes are buried in the dark......"

This master is not stupid, and the doubts are all on the point, but Xu You can't say that he secretly has the law of green ghosts who have conquered the heavens and the earth, and he can deceive anyone's eyes, and he also has a ghostly mask that can be easy to look at, but if he doesn't say these things clearly, he can't win people's trust.

It's an endless loop!

"Military marshal, although Qiantang City is not tall, but the thieves have been operating for many days, the ordnance and grain are sufficient, Du Mingyu and Liu Yan are all heroes among the people, proficient in battle formations, cunning and cunning, the soldiers under their command use their lives, they are not afraid of death, there are no 100,000 parts, it is really difficult to go down overnight."

Xu You spoke bitterly and persuaded: "The army commander leads the division of the tiger, if he fights in the field, he can fight in one go, and destroy all the thieves without losing a single bit." But the art of war is not a last resort, and it is not advisable to attack the city. Now the two armies are stalemate, it is difficult to distinguish between them, the longer it drags on, the more unfavorable it is to the commander, it is better to take risks, attack the east gate is not prepared, and great things can be done! ”

The master sneered: "Lang Jun is so calculating! Take a step back and say, I believe you, but have you ever thought about how our army can cross the rapids of the Qiantang River without a big ship and attack the east gate? Even if the ship is built now, when it is ready, I am afraid that the water at the east gate will dry up! ”

"This problem is easy to solve, when I came, I saw that there were countless green bamboos and tree trunks piled up in the camp, and the people who were looking for the water stripped their clothes, only wore a calf's nose robe, and carried a long knife to float on it, and in just a dozen miles, they could reach the Qiantang East Gate Wharf."

This is indeed a feasible strategy, but it is too risky, especially since Xu You's identity is not yet certain, and his words are difficult to believe. Qiu Yuan suddenly found that after listening to Xu You's advice, instead of solving the previous problems, he added new troubles.

The harm of using soldiers is the greatest hesitation; The disaster of the three armies was born of loneliness!

Qiu Yuan is a fierce general, but not a good general, this time he led the troops to quell the chaos, from the emperor to the ministers, from Jinling to the prefectures and counties, he was burdened with too much pressure and responsibility, so he did not dare to gamble all the chips at once, because if he lost, there was no chance to start over. But his cautiousness also made the fighter fleeting, Xu You was about to persuade again, Qiu Yuan waved his hand, and said impatiently: "I will send scouts to the east gate to investigate, if it is really as Lang Jun said, we will not be too late to discuss!" Someone came, Haosheng took care of Xu Langjun, gave him food and hot wine, and instructed him that no one should be rude to Xu Langjun! ”

It's too late to talk about it!

With such a large-scale transfer of the navy, he couldn't hide it from Du Mingyu for too long, maybe he had already gotten the news, and maybe he was sending someone to chase after Qi Ming. Xu You sighed, arched his hand to Qiu Yuan, and did his best to obey the destiny of heaven, he could only do this. At this time, Zuo Yan and Shan Zong entered the military tent after being informed, Zuo Yan and Qiu Yuan met before, confirming Xu You's identity, Qiu Yuan personally untied the rope that bound his hands, and said with a smile: "The princess specially sent an edict before leaving, asking me to find the whereabouts of Weizhi, and now it's okay, I can finally breathe a sigh of relief and return to the princess!" and General Zhu Zhonglang, Gu Fujun, and Meng Fake Zuo have also asked about your safety many times, Wei Zhi can have the care of all nobles, and you should be loyal to the country in the future, and live up to your kindness! ”

"Obey the instructions of the military commander!"

Qiu Yuan smiled brightly, and personally sent Xu You out of the account for his face, but Xu You's heart was as cold as snow.

He knew that Lady Luck wasn't on his side this time!
