Chapter 14 Zhang Shun coerced Xu to surrender the right to the army fairly
But he said that Xu Fengzheng was suspicious and thought to himself. The soldiers who suddenly heard came into the tent to report, "Your Majesty sent Zhonglang to send Zhang Shun to come and announce the decree!" ”
didn't think much about it, hurriedly sorted out his clothes, and hurried out of the account to receive the order.
Xu Feng had just come out of the camp tent, and saw Zhang Shun's eyes on the other side, and he rode a high-headed horse slowly into the camp with a high-headed horse holding the holy decree in his hand, followed by more than 100 sergeants who were all majestic.
Xu Feng bent down to greet him, looked around with his head down, and caught a glimpse of Chen Ang standing aside and staring at him with a sneer. Then I felt uneasy, and I was afraid that something bad would happen.
Zhang Shun immediately saw that Xu Feng was panicked by the firelight, and when he came to him, he finally raised his voice and shouted, "By Your Majesty's order, I hereby order Xu Feng, the general of the Yue Kingdom, to accept the order!" ”
Xu Feng lowered his head and heard the words, hurriedly knelt on the ground, bowed his head respectfully and bowed, "The minister Xu Feng accepted the order!" ”
Zhang Shun coldly ordered to dismount, saw that everyone was kneeling, and finally read out the will:
Xu Gongyun is an important minister of the country, and he is deeply entrusted by me, but he is not effective in courting the thieves, and he has not built an inch of work for more than a month, but the thieves have invaded the territory of the two counties. It is hereby ordered that Xu Gongyun lead his troops back to the aid of the two counties, and make meritorious service for his crimes, and Zhonglang General Zhang Shun is responsible for supporting the army without delay. P.S. said: Zhente Niang's is not a thing!
After that, Zhang Shun said, "General, take the order!" ”
Xu Feng hurriedly bowed his head and thanked him, raised his hands and accepted the will.
After leading Zhang Shun into the camp tent, Xu Feng sat in the middle of the marshal position and asked Zhang Shun, "General Zhang is tired of traveling and traveling, and it is getting late at the moment, so you might as well go to the tent to rest first, and how to rescue it tomorrow, how?" ”
Zhang Shun sat upright under the tent, and said with a heavy hand, "It's okay, it's just that I heard the sergeant talk about it in the account before, and the general just won a battle in front of Han Yu's southern camp, but is there such a thing?" ”
Xu Feng listened to the words, did not have doubts, nodded without thinking, and said, "This is indeed the case." Although our army won a small victory, Han Yu was cunning. Fearing that it would be deceitful, he withdrew and returned to the camp. ”
Zhang Shun sneered, "Does the general know the current situation of Fengling and Guangyang counties?" ”
“……”
Xu Feng stopped talking and looked up at the outside of the tent. Suddenly, Zhang Shun got up and said to the outside of the tent, "Come in!" ”
Chen Ang had been waiting for a long time and hurried into the tent. Seeing Zhang Shun on the side, he immediately knelt on the ground, ignoring Xu Feng's voice. cried to Zhang Shun, "General Zhang saved me Fengling!" ”
Zhang Shun squinted at Xu Feng and saw that his face was unhappy at the moment. Finally possessed Chen Ang and said, "On the way, I heard that General Chen had already gone to the army to ask for help a few days before me, why is he safe today?" ”
Chen Ang burst into tears, hugged Zhang Shun's thigh, and wept bitterly, "General Xu will not send troops, I have no way to cry!" ”
Hearing this, Sergeant Xu Feng in the tent immediately scolded, "Fart! General Xu is responsible for the country, and he must weigh it carefully before he can come to the rescue! Why don't you send troops! ”
Xu Feng saw the murderous spirit in the tent, and ordered the left and right sergeants to retreat. explained to Zhang Shun, "Now the army is facing against Han Yu's southern camp, if you retreat to help at this time, you will be ambushed by Han Yu!" ”
"Nonsense!" Zhang Shun shouted, "You have been in a stalemate with Han Yu's military horses in this canyon for more than a month, not only have you not built an inch, but you have also caused Your Majesty General to lose his country!" You should be convicted of such sins. ”
Xu Feng sighed and shook his head in front of Shuai's case, "I don't think Han Yu's move is in Fengling and Guangyang counties. It's just that I want to use this to lure me to divide my troops and return to help, so that I can take the opportunity to annihilate our army in one fell swoop! ”
"Do you know that the thirteen generals of Fengling City were all killed in battle! Guangyang's old general Ling Guang was also beheaded by Han Yu! Speaking of this, Zhang Shun was already furious, and shouted at Xu Feng, "Xu Feng! Do you dare to disobey Your Majesty's will! ”
Hearing this, Xu Fengcai suddenly remembered the uncle of Guangyang veteran Ling Guang Zhang Shun. couldn't help but gasp and scolded secretly, "Han Yu is really insidious and vicious!" ”
Seeing that Xu Feng did not respond, Zhang Shunqi's finger Xu Feng scolded loudly, "You just fought with Han Yu, and you were obviously victorious, but you retreated and returned to the camp." Sure enough, he secretly colluded with that Han Yu! Your Majesty has another secret decree, and the people will listen to the order! ”
After that, everyone was stunned.
Xu Feng never expected that His Majesty would suspect that he had a rebellious heart, and sat in the tent at a loss for a while.
Hearing Zhang Shun's order, the accompanying sergeants outside the tent drew their swords to surround the military tent, and the first dozen or so people rushed into the tent in a swarm.
"Xu Feng!" Zhang Shun scolded sharply, "You colluded with Han Yu and betrayed Your Majesty, you are guilty!" ”
Xu Feng was terrifying, but he didn't know how to explain it, so he had to sit in stare blank.
Seeing Xu Feng like this, Zhang Shun knew that he was outnumbered, and if he killed Xu Feng immediately, he was afraid of a mutiny in the army. So in accordance with Liu Qun's strategy before leaving, he ordered Xu Feng to immediately send troops back to the two counties. If the rescue is successful, he will pass on the decree to order Xu Feng to return to China to investigate the crime; If the rescue fails, find the right time to kill Xu Feng and return to China.
Xu Feng thought about it again and again, but finally did not dare to disobey the order, so he had to obey the order. In the tent, they discussed the matter of returning to the two counties.
"Now that the thieves have invaded two counties, how can they come back to help?" Xu Feng asked the generals under the account.
Everyone bowed their heads and was silent, seeing this, Zhang Shun scolded sharply, "The country raises you, are they all wine bags and rice bags at critical moments?" ”
Xu Feng saw that Zhang Shun was furious, and immediately asked, "Your Majesty has ordered General Zhang to accompany the army, I don't know what the general's good plan is?" ”
Zhang Shun listened, squinted coldly, and showed disdain, "I heard that Fengling Taishou Han Mei got the help of his son Zhao Yu, and Wang Ze, who was killed, was defeated, and now he has retreated from the camp for thirty miles and is stationed in the Hanshan area, Fengling is temporarily worry-free; As for Guangyang, it was harassed by Meng Yi's army and horses for days, and the people in the city were already panicked. So Zidang led the army to rescue Guangyang first! ”
Xu Feng nodded, and asked again, "According to the general's plan, how many soldiers and horses should be missing?" ”
Zhang Shun thought for a while and said, "The two counties have reported to His Majesty that there are more than 10,000 thieves, and the more people who go to the rescue, the better!" ”
After hearing this, Xu Feng immediately scolded Chen Ang, "You tell the truth, what are the thieves!" ”
"More than 10,000 ......" Chen Ang knelt on the handrail in horror.
"Tell the truth!" Xu Feng drank heavily.
Chen Ang was already in a cold sweat at this moment, and he was about to answer truthfully, but he suddenly remembered Han Mei's words before leaving, "If Your Majesty knows that more than a thousand people will beat me Fengling so embarrassed, I will inevitably be held accountable." ”
Thinking of this, Chen Ang gritted his teeth and said, "More than 10,000 people, don't dare to deceive the general!" ”
Hearing Chen Ang like this, Xu Feng slapped his palm angrily on the handsome case, and secretly scolded, "It's really heaven to kill me and cross the country!" ”
Zhang Shun immediately asked, "Since Fengling is like this, I'm afraid that the situation in Guangyang is even more serious, and we should return to the aid with heavy troops!" ”
Seeing that Zhang Shun was resolute, Xu Feng had no choice but to reply, "Then can I immediately transfer 50,000 horses and horses to General Yu to help?" I led 150,000 troops to sit in the army to prevent Han Yu from taking the opportunity to send troops to attack. ”
After hearing this, Zhang Shun sneered, "Your Majesty's will has been clearly stated, when the general leads the troops back to help, I should assist." What does the general mean by this? ”
"You!" Xu Feng got up angrily and shouted Zhang Shun.
Seeing this, all the sergeants hurriedly stopped Xu Feng and said, "The general is angry! Since His Majesty wills, you should obey and obey your orders! ”
Xu Feng knew in his heart that although Zhang Shun was just acting on orders, his uncle Ling Guang died in the hands of Han Yu, and he had already calculated this account on himself, and for Meng Yi under Guangyang City, he couldn't wait to cut it with a thousand knives at this moment to eliminate the hatred in his heart. Coupled with the slander and suspicion of everyone in the court, this Zhang Shun's sister is His Majesty's concubine. At this moment, I am afraid that I am already the fish in the hands of His Majesty.
Thinking of this, Xu Feng sat down slowly and sighed, "I am deeply favored by the emperor, and I should obey His Majesty's will." But Han Yu is cunning, so he must be guarded against! ”
Zhang Shun smiled coldly, "What about the general's intentions?" ”
Xu Feng said, "I left 5,000 soldiers to sit in the army to prevent Han Yu from sneaking attack." All the soldiers and horses in the remaining battalion were handed over to General Zhang to lead the reinforcements! ”
After hearing this, Zhang Shun thought to himself, "Since Xu Feng handed over 200,000 troops, he should accept it, and it is good to respond to His Majesty's thoughts." He only led 5,000 soldiers and horses, and it was difficult for him to make any waves with his soldiers and horses. It's better to agree for the time being, if Xu Feng really colludes with Han Yu, the military power will already be in my hands, and then it will not be too late to destroy Han Yunan's camp first, and then it will be too late to ask him for his guilt. In this way, according to Liu Qun's suggestion, the military power has been withdrawn, and I am in line with the holy will, successfully beheading Xu Feng and annihilating Han Yunan's battalion, Your Majesty should entrust me with a heavy responsibility! ”
Thinking of this, Zhang Shun immediately readily agreed.
Xu Feng ignored the obstruction of the sergeants, and immediately took out the talisman in his bosom and handed it to Zhang Shun, ordering the whole battalion to obey Zhang Shun's dispatch. He immediately gave up the commander's tent, ordered 5,000 soldiers outside the camp by himself, and walked to the camp tent to rest.
Zhang Shun received Xu Feng's military talisman and immediately held back his joy and indignation. Regarding Meng Yi's killing of his uncle Ling Guang, Zhang Shun had long wanted to take revenge.
He immediately ordered the whole army to rest tonight and return to Guangyang County early tomorrow morning.
Let's talk about Guangyang County, since Meng Yi killed Ling Guang, he got Han Yu's general, and ordered his battalion to step up defense and build fortifications; While harassing Guangyang every day.
And told that there will be a tough battle to be fought soon, and if the enemy is defeated at that time, he can take advantage of the terrain and garrison the battalion for two days. When the Nanying army is under the banner, it will annihilate Xu Feng's army in one fell swoop.
After Meng Yi received the letter, he was immediately overjoyed and ordered his soldiers to act according to the order.
The left and right sergeants were puzzled and told Meng Yi, "Didn't the general's move use us as bait to lure Xu Feng's army?" If Xu Feng's army arrives at that time, the Guangyang guards will definitely come out of the nest and attack us and others. How can we resist with our 500 soldiers? ”
Hearing this, Meng Yi laughed, "The general has also told in his letter that if he is defeated, I will wait until the whole army of Guangyang leaves the city, and immediately storm Guangyang and capture the city." At that time, all the firearms in Guangyang City will belong to us, relying on Guangyang City, and the general will be attacked inside and outside, and the 200,000 rattan armor soldiers of the Vietnamese army will be defeated! ”
The sergeant was still puzzled, "Then I'll take Guangyang immediately, why wait until then?" It's too dangerous for the general to flank our army! ”
Meng Yi waved his hand and said with a smile, "The general knows that Xu Feng is cautious, Guangyang is different from Fengling, it is easy to defend and difficult to attack. If we take Guangyang at this moment, why should Xu Feng send a large army back to help? We must attack Wang Ze's department with all our might! We waited to besiege Guangyang but not attack Guangyang, but it was just a ploy to block the sword for Wang Zebu and lure Xu Feng's entire main army to come. ”
"After all, we only have 500 men, so what if we are allowed to send troops back to help?"
After hearing this, Meng Yi also felt that Han Yu's plan was too dangerous, after all, with only 500 soldiers and horses, how could he earn 200,000 troops to return to Xu Feng? Thinking of this, Meng Yi suddenly remembered that he was ordered to behead Ling Guang a few days ago, and suddenly asked the sergeant, "Then old Ling Guang has an uncle and nephew who is in a high position in Yue Kingdom?" ”
The sergeant pondered for a moment, then replied, "But there is one person." The surname is Zhang Mingshun, and the word Boli. He is the middle general of the Yue Kingdom, and this person is also the brother-in-law of the monarch of the Yue Kingdom......"
Hearing this, Meng Yi laughed, "I finally know that the Great General ordered me to kill Ling Guang!" At this time, our army will win this battle! ”
Then he ordered the whole battalion to step up the construction of fortifications, and ordered the sergeants to bring good wine, and drank it alone in the military tent in the middle of the night until dawn and fell asleep.
