Sun Tu suddenly woke up from his sleep, only to feel that his heart was blocked and tightened, and it took a long time to settle down.

The uneasiness in his heart made him get up from the couch immediately, and when he opened the curtain and walked out, he found that he had just entered the fourth watch, and he had slept for more than an hour. This was a feeling he rarely had before, he felt that some crisis was approaching, but after thinking about it carefully, he couldn't find any clues, but the sleepiness was gone.

At this time, Tang Feng, who was guarding not far ahead, had quickly rushed over and asked with a concerned face, "General, do you have any orders?" ”

Sun Tu shook his head lightly: "You can walk around with me." He needs to think about suppressing this emotion in his heart as soon as possible, otherwise it will affect the use of troops and judgment in the future. Tang Feng replied in a low voice, and then walked around the camp casually with Sun Tu.

The 100,000-strong army was entrenched under the city of Huzhou, and this military camp was endless, occupying twenty or thirty miles at once. At this time, the entire Song army camp had already fallen asleep except for a few soldiers and horses who were on vigil and patrol, so it was extremely quiet, only a few fights came, and the torches and bonfires were beeping.

As the commander of the three armies, Sun Tu and the military camp of the Shandong Army were in the middle of the army, nearly ten miles away from Huzhou City, so when Sun Tu subconsciously looked at the city, he could only see a huge black silhouette standing there, but even the fire at the head of the city could not be checked.

From this, it can be concluded that it should be impossible for the defenders to send troops to attack at night. In fact, when he first launched a full-scale attack on Huzhou, Pang Wanchun really tried to send two elites to launch a night attack, but Sun Tu made arrangements early in the morning, so that not only did they not make any gains, but they were not lightly damaged, and they returned home. Therefore, in the following days, the Wu army never ventured out of the city to fight, but just defended the city and made up its mind to consume the Song army to the end.

After shaking his head to dispel the doubts and uneasiness in his heart, Sun Tucai glanced at Tang Feng, who was also following him, and said, "Fifteen, do you regret following me?" ”

Tang Feng, who hadn't been called like this by Sun Tu for a long time, was obviously stunned for a moment, but quickly said: "Where did the general say, he is proud to be able to follow you, how can he regret it?" If it weren't for your cultivation and promotion, I, Tang Fifteen, would have been just a scoundrel in Bianjing City today, and maybe I would have died on the streets long ago. ”

Sun Tu smiled: "I'm just giving you a chance, everything today is earned by yourself." But I want to thank you for saving me and Ya'er many times in critical situations...... But I can't really repay you after all, and now I'm pulling you and those brothers into an even more dangerous situation. I am in Shandong, and many of the things I do in Jiangnan are actually playing games with the imperial court, once there is a deviation, not only will I be ruined and die without a place to be buried, but even you will be greatly affected......" Somehow, today's Sun Tu just wanted to find someone to talk about the pressure in his heart, so he simply talked to the person he trusted the most.

Don't look at Sun Tu's decisive and unscrupulous actions over the years, but in fact, the pressure on his heart is greater than anyone else. He knows very well that everything he has done has violated the taboo of the court, but if anything goes wrong, it will be a catastrophe. And he is not the only one who died, Tang Feng, Dong Ping, Lin Chong and other cronies and generals, including Yue Fei, who has only come to his side not long ago, will be implicated, and even the entire Shandong army will not be able to get out of it.

But once something is done, it is like an arrow from the string, and there is no turning back. Long after he killed Gao Xiang, everything was already doomed. He forcibly suppressed these thoughts on weekdays, without revealing anything, but at this moment, somehow, he couldn't help but say it.

Tang Feng silently followed him forward for a while, and then said softly: "I only know that the general is doing all this for the people, for the brothers to live better, and I also believe that the general will be able to make everyone live better!" ”

Sun Tu paused and glanced back at him: "Then what if you find out that what I am doing is different from what you think in the future?" ”

"The general will always see farther than we do, so we just need to follow and obey." Tang Feng replied without hesitation: "If someone really dares to betray the general, I, Tang Feng, will not spare him first!" ”

Sun Tu shook his head with a smile when he heard this, but the doubt in his heart quickly faded. He believed that there must be many people in the Shandong army who thought like Tang Feng now, and he had already come to this point, even if it was just for them, there was no possibility of regretting turning back! Then follow your heart and do something that may seem rebellious to many people, this is a one-way street with no way back, only keep moving forward, and vow not to give up until you reach your goal!

Exhaling another breath of turbidity, Sun Tu's gaze became firm again, and his voice became much calmer: "Well said, I do think a little too much." Of course, the most important thing for us at the moment is to take Huzhou first and put down the Jiangnan Rebellion first. Let's go back, we should use some different means to attack the city today. "He's made up his mind that he can't be hindered anymore, so he'll have to put the Destruction Bullet that has been used as a secret weapon again. He believed that if this thing was sent to the top of the city and exploded in the crowd, it would be extremely killing and intimidating to the defenders, and perhaps the city would be breached in one fell swoop.

But just as he made up his mind and turned to walk back, there was a noise on the north side of the camp, which had been dark and oppressive. Although there was a distance between them, it was passed on because the surrounding environment was too quiet. And at this moment, there were already several torches moving quickly, coming towards the Chinese army.

This made Sun Tu's heart move again, could it be that his uneasiness just now came from this?

Soon after he returned to his tent, a group of people rushed over, and in addition to a few soldiers guarding Jingxi Road at the north camp gate, there were three slightly embarrassed fellows covered in dust, blood, and scars, all of whom still had frightened faces on their faces.

"What's going on? Where are you? Sun Tu asked after sweeping them over.

"Back to General Sun's words, we are the soldiers of Yanzhou Mansion, and we are the ...... who were ordered to stay behind to escort the grain and grass," the leader replied busily: "Just two days ago in the evening, when our team was escorting the grain and grass to this side, we suddenly encountered an ambush, and more than 3,000 brothers were killed by the enemy. ”

"What?" After hearing this, many of the generals who also heard the news showed panic. The supply of grain and grass is the key to the army, and once it is really lost, the consequences will be too serious.

"What the hell is going on, you take your time and explain things in more detail." Song Jiang seemed very calm, and said in a soft voice.

The big one gasped a few times before telling what had happened. Although his ability to express himself is not too strong, everyone finally understands the cause and effect of this incident.

It turned out that just seven or eight days ago, another batch of grain arrived in Suzhou. Lu Junyi, who was ordered to stay behind and transfer the logistics of grain and grass in the center, sent people to transport it immediately and sent it here. For the sake of safety, he even sent two generals, Huang Xin and Wei Dingguo, to be in charge of escorting.

But as a result, just three days ago, when the grain convoy passed through a certain valley with dangerous terrain, it was ambushed by an enemy army. The opponent's strength is two or three times that of the grain transport team, and it occupies a geographical advantage, and suddenly kills the grain transport team by surprise.

Although the two generals of Huang Xin and Wei Dingguo tried their best to lead the troops to fight, they were difficult to defeat the opponent's fierce killing method after all. Especially the main general of the other party, so that the two copper hammers are more fierce and brave than the two generals, after dozens of combinations, they will kill the two original Liangshan Bo in the number of good hands.

Subsequently, this grain escort team, which consisted of a small number of Shandong troops and many other officers and soldiers, quickly broke up, and not only was the grain and grass completely taken away by the enemy, but also suffered heavy casualties. Only now that these three people risked their lives to break through the siege and found a hidden place to hide, were they able to escape and bring the news back to the army.

After this person finished speaking, the faces of many generals became extremely gloomy, and Song Jiang even showed a sad expression: "Brother Huang, he actually ...... I, Song Jiang, must kill this person and avenge my brothers! ”

Sun Tu sighed: "It seems that we are too underestimated after all, and we actually vacated the back road, this is my responsibility." It was only then that he suddenly thought that he had indeed made a big mistake by leaving the army on Huzhou's side.

Although Huzhou is north of Hangzhou and the last fortified city before Hangzhou, from a geographical point of view, it is not the only way to enter Hangzhou after all. Therefore, once the rebel army on the Hangzhou side sends troops to the north, as long as they move around the path, there is a great possibility that the scouts who are secretly scattered by themselves will appear behind the army.

And once they really do this, it will be dangerous to fight the grain transport team from Suzhou, and even the Suzhou side may be attacked by the enemy. If they really let them retake Suzhou, their 100,000 troops would be cut off here.

At this time, the other generals also quickly understood, and their faces were nervous, but they didn't know what to do, and they all turned their eyes to Sun Tu. Now that he is the de facto commander of this army, he must provoke it when problems arise.

"The seizure of grain and grass is only a trivial matter, once the grain route is cut off, our army will be in danger. Therefore, it is necessary to send troops back to help immediately, and it is necessary to wipe out the rear rebels before things get out of hand! Sun Tu immediately gave his opinion, and then swept to the generals in front of him: "Which of you can lead the troops?" ”

In the face of Sun Tu's question, those generals stopped making a sound, and even lowered their eyes when they looked at him, obviously they didn't dare to go back to the north easily!
