Chapter 92: The Rebellion of the Sacrifice (II)
The two allied armies of the Su Ji clan and the Su Chang clan gathered under the city, and the crowd of 100,000 people was huge and dusty. The two chariots of Su Ji and Su Chang came out of the Chinese army, looking at the tall city wall in front of them, which can be described as strong and impregnable. The wind is blowing, the flag is flying, Su Ji and Su Chang are standing on the chariot, under the fluttering flag, the red shawl is flying in the wind, which can be described as majestic!
"Third brother, you see that the wall of the eldest brother is impregnable, and the soldiers besieging the city will definitely suffer great losses, which is not good for our army," Su Ji stretched out his hand and pointed to the tall city wall, looking at Su Chang and said.
"Second brother, what should you do now?" Su Chang followed and pointed to the tall city wall.
"It's better to return to the tent, and we'll think about it in the long run."
"Okay, I'll listen to the second brother."
Su Ji's family, Su Chang's family was about to turn the carriage and horses, preparing to withdraw the army, Chao Jinxi stepped forward and stopped in front of the chariot, looked at Su Ji's and Su Chang's on the chariot and said: "Two adults, you can't withdraw the army, the march and war rely on a drum, now is the time when morale is high, if you withdraw the army, the army's morale will be weakened, and it will be difficult to attack Jucheng again." After hearing this, Su Jishi smiled and said: "I think that when we galloped on the battlefield and were invincible, what were we afraid of?" Now that they have ordered the withdrawal of the army when they see the city of Juchengjian, how will the various sergeants think of us, thinking that we are a timid general, and who will listen to our orders in the future? Therefore, the city should be attacked with all its strength and taken down the city in one go. ”
At this time, the soldiers above the city tower looked from afar, and under the city tower was a piece of enemy black oppression. A soldier rushed to Su He's mansion and knelt down and said, "Lord, now the combined forces of the Su Ji clan and the Su Chang clan are already in the city. ”
Su He sat on the top of the lobby and asked, "How many enemy troops are there?" ”
"A hundred thousand."
"Now is also the time when the morale of the enemy army is at its peak, and our army should avoid its sharp edge and hold on to it; as the so-called one blow of strength, then decline, and three times exhaustion, when the morale of the enemy army is exhausted, we can defeat the enemy army with one blow."
"The lord is so strategic! What should we do at this time? A civil official stood up and looked at Su He Dao above the lobby.
"Inquire into the enemy's camp," Su He said as he walked down the lobby and stood in the middle of them. These civil officials and strategists kept nodding their heads in agreement, and walked out and stood behind Su He. Stepping out, riding a fast horse, detouring, and quietly running out of the city. Standing on the top of the mountain, surrounded by mountains and mountains, Su He laughed when he saw this: "The second brother and the third brother don't know how to use soldiers!" You see, these four places are surrounded by mountains, and their camp is in the middle of this mountain, and if our army occupies this high ground, it can be condescending to hold the pass, and surround it, then this place will also become a place of death. ”
"The Lord is like a god! The so-called Childe Qi can't reach either. ”
"You can't say that, you see, there are granaries on both sides behind the main camp, and as the saying goes, the soldiers and horses go first before the grain and grass are moved. The enemy is now attacking the city with all its might, and the forces defending the granaries must be empty, so we only need to send elite divisions to burn its granaries and cut off their grain routes, and the enemy army will collapse on its own. Lure them to this barracks and surround them, and in less than a week, the enemy army will be in chaos without the supply of food and grass, and we will take this opportunity to attack and annihilate it in one fell swoop, and strengthen the strength of our army. ”
Under the city, several catapults were launched in the rear army, and the stones were packed in the wooden frame at one end of the lever, dozens of people pulled the rope at the same time, and the stones were thrown out by using the principle of the lever, and countless sharp stones smashed into the city tower like dark clouds, and the soldiers on the city tower were killed and wounded. In the end, the whole army attacked, like a tide to the city, the soldiers who rushed forward carried the ladder and braved the arrows to pounce on the fallen corpses and set up the city wall, and the soldiers under the tower climbed up the ladder, like a swarm of black ants attacking the hive. The soldiers on the tower resisted to the death, and the rows of long halberds pierced out the fallen soldiers like hailstones from the sky, one after another, and the corpses filled the entire moat.
The soldiers who did not know where they came from rushed in, like a surprise from the sky, so that the soldiers in the camp were panicked, and the two armies fought each other, and the blood and rain rained, and the long soldiers surrounded each other, shouting and killing all around, and the long soldiers stabbed the camp with blood. Su Wu rushed out of the camp and looked around in a hurry, I don't know where this soldier came from, pulled out the long sword at his waist, the generals rushed forward Su Wu escaped under his protection, three generals were killed, these soldiers rushed in and set fire to the granary, the granary was on fire.
Su Wu quickly galloped to the chariots of Su Ji and Su Chang, dismounted and knelt down to look at Su Ji on the chariot and said: "Father, the enemy army attacked our army's camp and burned our army's granary. ”
"What?" Su Ji stood on top of the chariot, his heart was shocked, and he took a few steps back and was stunned. Su Changshi stood on top of the chariot on the side and said hurriedly: "Second brother, what should we do now?" ”
"We have repeatedly attacked Jucheng, but the city is still so strong after a long time, the eldest brother is really scheming, sneaking into the rear camp of our army, losing three generals in a row, now only return to the camp, from the long-term plan," Su Ji only turned the chariot and withdrew the three armies to return to the camp. Three days later, the soldiers killed horses to satisfy hunger, gnawed tree bark, ate grass roots, and starved for several days, and some escaped and threw themselves into the command of Su He.
Su Wu rushed into the camp tent angrily, and pulled out the sword at his waist to kill Chao Jinxi. Chao Jinxi was so frightened that he hid behind Su Ji's family. Su Jishi stepped forward and said, "Wu'er, what are you doing here?" ”
"Father, our army is still besieged by the enemy army after such an embarrassing defeat this time, isn't it this traitor who provoked it?"
"Young General, this is a bad word, if I were the traitor you said in your mouth, I would have fled a long time ago, what are you staying here for? Waiting for you to kill me? Chao Jinxi walked out, plucked up the courage to come out.
Su Ji turned to Chao Jinxi behind him and said, "What else can I do, sir?" ”
"For now, the only way to do this is to ask the imperial court to send reinforcements, and there is Gongzi Qi in the imperial court. Gongzi Qi is familiar with reading military books, and he is unpredictable with soldiers, as long as he leads the troops, he will be able to defeat Su He's clan. ”
"Now that we are surrounded by enemy troops, how can we ask the imperial court to send reinforcements?" Su Chang next to him walked out.
"According to my recent observations, the defense in the southeast is lax, and the major general and I can break through from this place and ask the imperial court for reinforcements."
Su Wu and Chao Jinxi escaped overnight on fast horses and ran to the capital to ask for reinforcements. The imperial court sent Gongzi Qi to lead the army. At night, Gongzi Qi sat at the desk and didn't know what was being written? The second stunned man walked in and said, "Childe, Miss Ling has arrived." ”
Gongzi Qi stood up and walked out to look at Miss Ling in front of him, and helped Miss Ling sit in front of the desk. Miss Ling looked at the son standing next to her and said, "It's so late, what are you still writing?" Gongzi Qi squatted down and looked at Miss Ling: "Am I not writing the book "Miscellaneous"? Now it's time to write the "Military Strategy". Miss Ling seemed to be a little angry, turned her head to the side, and later faced Gongzi Qi and smiled: "You don't sleep at night, and I won't sleep in the future." Gongzi Qi is face was serious and said, "You are not allowed to do this." ”
"What should I do if I don't sleep at night and my body collapses? Be sure to go to bed early to hear no. ”
"Okay, go to bed early."
"Oh~, well," Miss Ling smiled all over her face, which meant to make her laugh. picked up the "Military Strategy" written by Gongzi Qi and looked at it carefully, and said, "You have a typo on it." ”
"Okay, I'll change it," Gongzi Qi corrected the typo under the guidance of Miss Ling.
Miss Ling stood up and took off the robe hanging behind the copper lamp and walked forward and said, "Your robe is torn, I'll mend the needle and thread," Gongzi Qi walked into the bedroom and brought the needle and thread, and handed it to Miss Ling's hand, Miss Ling picked up the needle and thread to sew and sewed him one by one, put it on him and looked left and right, and said: "Monkey, you are going to go tomorrow, I am reluctant to let you go." ”
"Lingling," Gongzi Qi stood up with tears in his eyes and hugged each other in the dim light. Miss Ling pushed away her son and looked at her, "I'll take you to see my uncle, he is the father of my eldest brother, second brother and third brother." Gongzi Qi followed Miss Ling out, supported each other on a palace sedan chair, and walked towards the prince's mansion. An old man walked out and greeted him, "Lingling." ”
"Uncle," Miss Ling stood in the middle and introduced to Gongzi Qi, who stood up and saluted, "Uncle." ”
The old man welcomed Gongzi Qi and Miss Ling into the mansion, looked at Gongzi Qi and said, "The old man of Gongzi Qi has already heard about it, and it is like thunder. Childe came this time to crusade against my three sons. ”
"Exactly."
"Are my three sons really going to rebel?"
"Not yet, but because their power is too great, their cities are extremely outnumbered by the royal family, threatening the imperial court. Uncle, too much power will inevitably lead to mutual killing between brothers, and things like this are not uncommon. ”
"The old man knows, the old man just wants to ask you to bring them back safely, they are all your brothers, and they are also your elders."
Gongzi Qi led the troops to Yongcheng, ordered Su Wu to lead the troops to rescue his father, and rushed out of the heavy encirclement. Su He stood on the top of the mountain and looked at the young generals who were rushing back and forth in the formation, and asked left and right, "Who is that young general?" ”
"Su Wu," it turned out that Su Wu led the troops to rescue his father and second uncle, and Gongzi Qi's reinforcements had not yet arrived, so there was no need to worry. led the army to chase after him, and a strategist stopped in front of Su He's horse and said: "Lord, poor Kou Mo chase, be careful and deceitful." ”
"The defeated army should take advantage of this to pursue, and there will be no deception."
Su He led the army in pursuit, and the rest of the sergeants defended the city. Su Wu pretended to be defeated and chased to the Tiger Wolf Valley. Above the valley is the wood and flint down, suddenly a fire broke out, thick smoke billowed out, countless soldiers were burned to death, Su He's army defeated the Tiger Wolf Valley.
