Chapter 679: Secret Discussion

Why is the prime minister like this! ”

Ji Changrun was taken aback.

The ministers in the palace also looked around, surprised, thinking that Wang Yu introduced Yu culture to His Majesty, and the two of them were friends and like-minded comrades at that time!

Now he actually shouted out the words of please Cho Yu Culture and such murderous words, how not to make everyone doubt.

Wang Mi held a jade plate in his hand, his waist was straight, and his voice was like a Hong Zhong: "Your Majesty, Banan is a land of smoke and miasma, and the barbarians are even more alien, with different languages and cultures, and there is no grace on weekdays, how can we get along peacefully?" Retreating to Banan is a self-defeating one. ”

After that, Wang Yu stepped forward even more, pointed at Yu Wenhua's nose and scolded: "Yu Wenhua! What are your intentions to ask Your Majesty to abandon the city and flee? ”

Turning around, he said sincerely to Ji Changrun: "Although the Han army is as powerful as a tiger, but the people of the family in the city have the strength to fight, there are more than 5,000 elite soldiers in the city, and there are more than 10,000 people under the command of General Wu, all of whom are good sons of Yizhou, in order to defend Your Majesty and Yizhou, you will be able to fight to the death with the enemy, as long as you can repel the Han army this time, and recover Baishui Pass in the homeopathic manner, Your Majesty will be able to rebuild the Zhou room and restore the glory of Emperor Wu in the Great Zhou." ”

After all, Wang Mi, a veteran minister for many years, knew Ji Changrun's weakness, so his tone softened a little, and he stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty, Banan is poor, there are no delicacies, and there are no heavenly beauties, and he is accompanied by fierce beasts and poisonous insects all day long, and he is accompanied by nine-foot barbarians day and night... Your Majesty, think about it! ”

"Nine-foot barbarian?"

Ji Changrun fought a cold war, probably thinking of the difficult days to live in Banan, so Ji Changrun immediately made a decision to defend the city, and appointed Wang Mi as the general of the city defense, who could mobilize all the soldiers and resources in the city.

Yu Wenhua and had nothing to say, as the other ministers withdrew from the main hall.

Wang Mi got Ji Changrun's edict, and went to the city to prepare without a moment's rest, of course, before that, Wang Mi directly seized the military power of Yuwen Chengdu, and Yuwen Chengdu became the commander of the light pole in an instant.

However, Yuwen Chengdu didn't care at all, and went back to his house to rest.

Within a few days, Wei Qing's army came to the city, and then Wei Qing ordered his soldiers to set up camp, on the one hand, they sent envoys to persuade them to surrender, and on the other hand, they actively prepared and planned to attack the city.

Soon the messenger returned from the city, and when all the generals saw it, they were all furious, and it turned out that the messenger's nose had been cut off.

Wei Qing looked at the embarrassed envoy in the hall, his face did not change, and asked, "Who is the guard in the city?" ”

The messenger replied, "Great commander, the guard of the city is the king." ”

"Wang Yu? Can you see Yuwen Chengdu? ”

"Never..."

After understanding clearly, Wei Qing ordered people to settle the messenger and remember the merits.

Then Wei Qing said to the generals: "Wang Yu is just a rotten Confucian, and he intends to attack the city with a cannon cart and go down to Jinguan City in a battle." ”

For several days, the Han army was only logging outside the city, but did not attack the city, Wang Mi was suspicious, and rushed to Ji Changrun to send someone to inquire.

Wang Mi had no choice but to summon the generals to ask the reason.

A general said: "I'm afraid it's the Han army that is starting the artillery truck!" ”

"Artillery cart!"

As soon as the general said the principle of the artillery cart, Wang Mi was shocked and said angrily: "Why didn't you say it earlier?" ”

The general said: "I didn't dare to be sure before, but I didn't dare to say more." ”

Wang Yu sighed, the big battle was imminent, but it was not easy to punish, so he asked: "Is there any way to solve the artillery carts of the Han army outside the city?" ”

The general replied: "There are two ways, one is also to start the artillery cart, but the military defense of Jinguan City has been abandoned for several years, and the craftsmen are even more insufficient, so it is simply unrealistic to gather enough artillery carts that can be used for defense in a short period of time..."

"What about the other way?"

The general arched his hand and said: "The artillery cart moves slowly, the attack distance is short, you can send cavalry out of the city to destroy the enemy artillery cart during the battle, the artillery cart is not easy to build, and it takes decades to destroy it once in order to build it, and now it is October, and it is holding on for two months, and the Han army will inevitably be tired when it is cold, and the soldiers of the Han army are also homesick, and there is no morale at all, and they will definitely retreat." ”

Wang Mi didn't know much about military affairs, but when he heard that there was a way, he was in a mood for a while, and immediately asked again: "What is the success rate of the artillery cart that went out of the city to destroy the enemy army?" ”

"I don't know~"

In fact, the generals knew that it would be hellish to destroy the Han army's artillery trucks, and the so-called strategy was more to comfort the prime minister of the Great Zhou.

Even when the generals saw the Han army with high morale outside, there was a trace of fear in their hearts, even if they held this time, but what about the next time?

Baishui Pass has been lost, Jinguancheng has no danger to defend, the Han Dynasty has mastered most of the world, and with the land of Jinguancheng to fight against the whole world?

Ji Changrun patted his ass and fled to Banan, for a person like him who has lived in Jinguan City for generations, Banan, who is far away in the south, is like hell, and he really wants to live there forever......

When the general thought of this, he couldn't help but shudder, he really didn't dare to imagine.

The day was safe and sound, and the general was not on duty at the head of the city tonight. So he dragged his tired body back to the mansion.

Without waiting for Xinna's concubine to remove her armor, a servant came to say: "Master, Guo Shizhong, General Zhao, and Captain Du have come to meet the master." ”

"What are they doing here?"

The general frowned, and then ordered: "Take the three guests to the study, and so-and-so will arrive." ”

"Yes!"

The generals bathed and changed clothes and came to the study, and the three of them got up and saluted the generals: "General Yan! ”

"Where did you come from?"

General Yan motioned for the little servant to serve tea, looked at the three people in the seat, and asked.

Guo Shizhong arched his hand and said: "General Yan is the general of Yizhou, and today he has the merit of advice, Guo does not understand military affairs, and dares to ask the general, what is the victory rate of our side in this battle now?" ”

"Jinguan is a rare fortified city in this world, there is plenty of grain and grass in the city, and the soldiers have the heart to fight to the death..."

"General Yan!"

Guo Shizhong directly interrupted: "General Yan, we are one now, so don't use those vain words!" ”

"Hey~"

General Yan pondered for a moment, and then sighed: "Jinguan is just a city of land, how can you use one city to resist the world?" It's not a matter of time before the fall comes, and if the Han army fails once, it can come again next year, but how many times can we defend it? In case the Han army is too damaged and the city falls, will you and my family be able to withstand the wrath of the Han army? ”

For a while, everyone fell silent, leaving only the clear air floating in the tea cup, and then gradually drifting in the air...

"Why not?"

Captain Du, who had been silent for a long time, finally broke the silence.

General Yan got up suddenly, and just wanted to scold, but when he thought of what he had just said, he didn't have the face to scold, so he could only sit down.

"There are many reasons for descending, and there are many reasons for not descending, everyone can think of it, and there is not much to say, Prime Minister Wang Cheng insists on not descending, he has his insistence, but he can't help but think about his family."

Captain Du patted his thigh, "Now there are rumors in the city that the Han army will slaughter the city after breaking through the city, but this is all a means used by Prime Minister Wang Cheng to fool those foolish people, who would believe this, so, General Yan, the three of us are all preparing to surrender..."

The three of them looked at General Yan with burning eyes, General Yan suddenly felt a little drunk, thinking in his heart and doing it are two different things, although General Yan is not confident in defeating the Han army, and even the words he said are even more demoralizing, but he really has no idea of surrendering, otherwise he would not have made an idea for Wang Yu.

Now that the three of them are coming, is it considered a forced palace?

Whatever...

General Yan went through a struggle of thoughts, and finally made up his mind, "Then let's come down!" One wants to preserve the family, and the rest has nothing else. ”

Guo Shizhong said: "Please also rest assured General Yan, it is impossible for General Wei to promise if you ask too much, but it is absolutely no problem to protect the family." ”

The four of them deliberated again, and it was not until late in the evening that the three of them took their leave and left.
