Chapter 5 The Idealism of the World XXXIX

Yangzhou, Huiji.

"Don't worry, I've made arrangements in the city." Yu said with a smile.

"Oh? May it be auspicious. ”

"On the top of the city, I have prepared a weapon no less than a fire, and I will make the skin of those who ascend the city open."

"Could it be ......" Although Bai Liyan thought of it, he still looked at Wang Lang beside Yu with a puzzled look.

Wang Lang just nodded.

She understood that the thing that Yu turned over was "boiling gold juice".

As long as the boiling dung water is poured on the person, it will directly scald off the skin and flesh, and the bones will be seen in an instant.

Although Bai Liyan has killed countless people, when she heard this thing, she couldn't help but feel a chill in her heart - this plan is so ruthless.

In other words, Sun Ce's soldiers and horses could not survive at all.

Retreat, there is a raging fire outside; Attack, the city is boiling water and gold juice. Even if you stay still, you will be killed by a bow and arrow.

I have to say that if Ji Zhen can succeed, he can indeed wipe out Sun Cejun.

In this way, the suspicion of Yu Translation can be dispelled.

While Baili Yan was thinking about it in his heart, Yu Fu put forward a new suggestion - in order to ensure that nothing went wrong outside the city, he would personally enter the secret passage and go out of the city to command the fire.

This is of course good, and it is more proof of Yu Tuo's loyalty.

The plan has been decided, and everyone finally arranged another division of labor.

……

Three days later, in early August, Sun Ce's army arrived in Huiji County.

However, he did not attack immediately, and out of respect for Wang Lang, Sun Ce first ordered people to go to the city to persuade him to surrender.

As a result, needless to say, the defenders of the city released two arrows and drove back the soldiers of Sun Cejun's army who persuaded them to surrender.

Everyone inside and outside the city knew that the next day, the siege would begin.

Therefore, Wang Lang began to prepare after dinner.

Baili Yan climbed to the top of the city, and she knew that she couldn't sleep well tonight.

And Yu Fu also entered the secret passage.

There are three secret passages leading to the outside of the city, and on the periphery is a connected circular secret passage, above which are the exits disguised as desolate tombs.

There are about 100 desolate graves outside the city, but only 10 are actually exits.

Wang Lang ambushed twenty soldiers at each exit, ten of whom were responsible for arranging dry firewood, five for sprinkling fire oil, and five for lighting fires.

Everything was ready, and the soldiers were still somewhat sleepy, so they all snooze against the walls of the secret passage.

However, it didn't take long for the screams of their companions to wake them up.

When he opened his eyes, Sun Cejun's soldiers appeared in the secret passage.

"Ahh

"Ahh Lord Yu! There are enemy troops! ”

"Hurry up and report to Yu...... Yes! ”

was attacked so coldly and unguardedly, Wang Langjun in the secret passage didn't have time to resist at all, and he didn't even have time to escape.

……

Sun Ce walked slowly in the secret passage, looking at the corpses on the ground leisurely by the faint light of the torches held by the soldiers beside him.

"I'm afraid that Wang Lang wouldn't have thought that this hard-to-dig secret passage was actually prepared for me." As he spoke, Sun Ce stopped and closed the frightened eyes of a corpse with his hand.

A figure appeared behind him, and it turned out to be Yu Flip.

Yu Chuan stepped forward and said with a smile: "With Wang Lang's talent, how can he compete with General Sun?" ”

Yes, Yu turned into a mutiny in the end.

It should be said that he has long since defected.

He is the internal response of the Seven Sages placed by the Ten Sages.

From the moment the opinions of the Ten Elders diverged with the other two Elders, the Seven Elders expected that things would develop to this day.

Therefore, he made arrangements early and enveloped the unstable night handsome beside the ten sages, Yu Xuan.

Although Yu Flip is very murderous, he is also well hidden. It's only today that he really made a difference.

Sun Ce stood up, a smile on the corner of his mouth.

He pointed his hand forward, and behind him, Cheng Pu, Huang Gai, and Han Dang, the three veterans, each led their troops to set off along a secret road.

The rest of the generals followed Sun Ce and led the Chinese army that entered the secret passage one after another to move steadily forward from the secret passage in the middle.

……

"Report! There are enemy troops at the secret passage in the city! ”

"Report! Outside the city, there are soldiers and horses of Sun Ce's army! The city has been besieged! ”

"Report! The enemy army in the city set fire to the camp! ”

"Report! There are too many enemy troops entering the city, and the soldiers can't resist it! ”

When Bai Liyan, who was resting in the city tower, heard the first soldier's report, he knew that it was the reason for Yu Xuan.

There is something wrong with this person after all!

But it's useless to talk about it now. The most important thing at the moment is no longer how to defend the city, but to escort Wang Lang out.

Baili Yan quickly ran down the city wall, and ordered his subordinates to gather all the Ye Feng, including Yan Xue and the other three, and retreat to the city guard mansion with all their might.

She believed that Yan Ping must have escorted Wang Lang to prepare to leave the city at this time, and Yan Ping must be anxiously looking for herself.

Sure enough, far away, Baili Yan saw Wang Lang and Yan Ping and others outside the city guard's mansion.

Baili Yan could only simply tell Wang Lang that Yu had rebelled, and the city was undefendable, so he could only flee quickly.

In fact, there is no need for her to say, the sky-high fire at the city gate has already said everything.

Wang Lang stomped his feet in annoyance and followed Bai Lichang and the others to retreat in the opposite direction.

……

Sun Ce's army was unprepared, and the battle was soon over.

Standing in front of the gate of the city guard's mansion, Sun Ce waited quietly.

At this time, the Seven Sages led Zhou Tai and others to arrive.

"Ce'er, where is Wang Lang?"

"I escaped."

"Escaped? Why not chase? ”

"He is not at fault under his rule, not to mention that the soldiers of our army are tired from fighting overnight." Sun Ce said very casually.

The Seven Sages' faces sank. Recently, Sun Ce has become more and more self-conscious, and he is not obedient to his and the opinions of the six sages.

Although he didn't say it, the Seven Sages were somewhat unhappy in his heart.

"Zhou Tai! Jiang Qin! Order the two of you to lead a thousand elite soldiers, chase after them quickly, and be sure to capture Wang Lang back! ”

"Yes!" The two agreed, and led the army out of the city.

At this time, Sun Ce had already entered the City Guard Mansion, and the Seven Sages and Elders also followed.

The others were left outside the mansion by the Seven Sages, and now there are only him and Sun Ce.

"Ce'er, why don't you want to kill Wang Lang."

"Elder Xian, why did you kill him?"

"He spreads kindness here, and the people are attached to it, and if he does not kill, it is difficult to guarantee that he will not become a disaster."

It was precisely because of his fame that Ce'er was reluctant to kill him. Although we continue to grow, we still need the support of the people, and I don't want him to leave a bad reputation when he dominates Jiangdong in the future. ”

"The most important thing at the moment is to seek peace, those false names, in the future, can practice more benevolent governance, how can the foolish people say more?"

"But...... In this way, isn't it the opposite of Yefeng? ”

"Ye Feng ......" The Seven Sages Elder heard this word, his expression was a little sad, "Ye Feng has long been dead, and now there are only Sun and ...... standing in Jiangdong Tilt the man. ”

……

Wang Lang and his entourage, who were fleeing through the forest, certainly wouldn't know about the argument between Sun Ce and the Seven Sages at this time.

It's just that the shouting of killing is getting closer. After all, the other party sent some cavalry, and it was impossible to escape on foot alone.

"If we escape like this, I'm afraid we'll all be killed." Xuan Qiu said.

"What does that mean?" Bai Li asked as she ran.

"Our troops are divided into two routes, the misty commander will quickly rush to ask for help from the ten sages, and I will take the rest of my subordinates to escort Lord Wang to retreat east."

"......"

"I just hope that the fan can catch up."

This is nothing more than nonsense. Bai Li Yan knew that Xuan Qian just wanted to use Wang Lang to attract the attention of the enemy and give himself a chance to escape.

I don't want the old subordinates of the Ten Sages to have such a righteous person.

Although he was a little hesitant, Bai Li Yan was now leading not only his own subordinates, but also Weiyun's former subordinates.

She couldn't be rash, so in the end, she had to nod her head and agree.

Wang Lang didn't know where the Ten Sages were, otherwise he would have been able to judge the deep meaning of Xuan Qiu.

In this way, Baili Yan turned north and withdrew with a group of subordinates.

……

It should be said that they withdrew just in time, because, after only a stick of incense, Wang Lang and the others were chased by Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin.

Due to the sectarian system, these night commanders of the Ten Virtuous Elders did not recruit enough sub-commanders.

There are only two people under Xuan Qiu, Ning Xiao and Hu Yang.

Looking at the gradually clear figure of the cavalry, Xuan Qiu stopped and took a deep breath.

"The third child," this is his name for Hu Yang, and he is also like a brother when he is separated from himself, "You continue to escort Lord Wang to the east, and if you can't do it, you will flee to the south." ”

"Big brother!" Hu Yang understood Xuan Qiu's thoughts, and he was very reluctant to arrange it like this.

"Go ahead." Ning Xiao smiled and patted him on the shoulder, "I'm with my eldest brother." ”

Hu Yang gritted his teeth, looked at Xuan Qiu again, turned around and left with Wang Lang.

Ning Xiao walked up to Xuan Qiu, still smiling and said, "I've been thinking for a long time, who will die first, me or my eldest brother." ”

"Looks like the answer will be available today." Xuan Qiu smiled in response.

They also have 800 subordinates here, but both of them know that these sect members are not at the same level as Sun Cejun's combat power.

Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin on the opposite side also saw them clearly at this time, so they took the war horses.

"Xuanqiu, get out of the way, we have worked together, I don't want to do anything with you." Zhou Tai said this, but he also knew that it was in vain, so he got off the war horse.

"Hehe, I've always wanted to fight you, but I didn't get a chance. Today, it's just the right time to have a good fight. Xuan Qiu took the whip off from his waist, and the tip of the whip hung down on the ground.

Zhou Tai no longer uses the weapons he used in the Southern Hall, and what he uses now is only a regular spear.

Looking at Xuan Qiu's posture, Zhou Tai sighed slightly at Jiang Qin, turned over and dismounted.

He stuck his spear on the ground and said, "It's a sign of respect for your status as a night marshal." ”

Then he took out from the saddle a weapon he had not used for a long timeβ€”a steel spike.

It was a two-foot-long iron spike with thin ends and a grip in the middle.

Xuan Qiu smiled, dragged the whip with his left hand, and pulled his steps away.

Zhou Tai did not hesitate, because since the attitude of the two sides has been decided, there is only one battle.

He swung his left hand in front of him, and his right hand clenched the steel thorn behind him, and whispered:

"The blade of the long sword has been damaged, and it can still be punished."

Xuan Qiu smiled and read along:

"The reputation of the history is ruined, and the blood is loyal."

Then, the two of them rose up at the same time, running towards their former companions.
