Chapter 494: Why

When night fell, the autumn style on the north bank of the Qin River was cool, and the autumn cicadas sang happily, not knowing that its life had come to an end.

Qinyang City is located on the south bank of the Qinhe River, as the capital of Huaiguo, even at night, Qinyang City is still very lively. In stark contrast to this is the silence on the north bank of the Qin River.

If the north bank of the Qin River is desolate, it is not enough, after all, close to the capital, there are still many villages on the north bank of the Qin River. However, these villages are far apart, and there are often large tracts of wasteland between them.

At this time, Zhang Shumo had already led 20,000 cavalry to a wasteland on the north bank of the Qin River.

"Let the soldiers set up camp and light the bonfire, but do not allow the soldiers to rest, and retreat as soon as everything is done." Zhang Shumo looked at the lights on the south bank of the Qin River, and quickly gave his order. At this moment, he knew very well in his heart that Zhang Yu must have known that he was coming.

In the palace of Qinyang City, Wu Yu hurriedly found Zhang Yu: "Young Master Yu, Zhang Shumo has arrived on the north bank of the Qinhe River, and the spies have come to report that they have set up camp on the north bank." ”

Zhang Yu excitedly put down the book in his hand, and immediately got up and said, "Pass my order to launch a sneak attack on Zhang Shumo's camp." ”

In order to prevent Zhang Shumo from discovering it, Zhang Yu ordered to collect a lot of fishing boats, and let the soldiers cross the river at night in order to hide their traces.

Due to the lack of preparation, the crossing of the river was delayed for a long time, and it was only from the ugly hour until dawn that 70,000 soldiers crossed the Qin River.

After crossing the river, Wu Yu proposed to let the soldiers rest for two hours before attacking Zhang Shumo's camp. But Zhang Yu was determined to fight Zhang Shumo's unstable foothold, so he ordered the soldiers not to rest, and launched a surprise attack on Zhang Shumo's camp overnight.

At this time, it was already Mao Shi, and the sky was white. The north bank of the Qin River suddenly remembered the sound of war drums, which shattered the quiet moment.

Seventy thousand soldiers suddenly appeared in the grass on the north bank of the Qin River as if they had surrendered, and the soldiers shouted and killed Zhang Shumo's camp.

In stark contrast, there was silence in the camp, and the soldiers didn't realize that something was wrong until they were about to rush to the camp, and the camp was too quiet, right? Why isn't there even a sentry officer?

Cao Qi, as the vanguard of this battle, took the lead in Zhang Shumo's camp with 10,000 soldiers, and then Cao Qi was surprised to find that the reason why this camp was so quiet was because there was no one inside!

"Oops! We've got it! Cao Qi instinctively patted his thigh after finding that there was no one in the camp, and then immediately led people back.

At this moment, the sound of war drums suddenly sounded in the grass not far from the camp, and in an instant, a rain of fire fell, and the camp immediately turned into a sea of fire. As the vanguard, Cao Qi's troops immediately began to hug their heads, and more than 10,000 vanguard troops suffered heavy losses in the first round of the battle between the two sides.

Zhang Yu, who was sitting in the rear, was furious when he heard the news, and personally led the army to Zhang Shumo's camp, and suddenly looked at Zhang Shumo across a sea of fire.

"Is that how the eldest brother welcomes the younger brother? Directly with an army of 70,000 to greet me, I really have such a big card! Zhang Shumo looked at Zhang Yu and said coldly.

Zhang Yu snorted coldly: "You don't have to talk here, you and I both know it, if you have the ability, don't run away today, and fight to the death with me here!" ”

Zhang Shumo took a deep breath, and then asked rhetorically: "Do you know that now that the war is rekindling in the south of our country, Zheng Guo has broken through the inner capital, and it is possible to hit Qinyang City at any time?" ”

Zhang Yu narrowed his eyes: "I didn't expect you to be quite well-informed, it seems that you have been spying on the throne of Huaiguo for a long time, right?" Otherwise, why would you bother to probe the war in the south? ”

"Why? In order not to let the land of Huaiguo fall into the hands of the enemy! Do you remember what Daddy's purpose was? Zhang Shumo asked indignantly.

Zhang Yu snorted coldly: "Hmph! Isn't it for the Emperor of the Curtains? It's a pity that he is too thin-skinned to be the emperor, and he didn't become the emperor until he died, so I forgot to tell you, Zhang Lu was still thinking about you when he was dying, and you will definitely avenge him! Wan Zhangyu laughed deliberately.

Hearing Zhang Yu's laughter, Zhang Shumo couldn't help but clench his fists, but he still suppressed the anger in his heart and said: "Don't worry, I will avenge this revenge sooner or later, but not now!" For the sake of the war in the south, I can withdraw my troops first, and you can put all your combat power into the battlefield in the south. When you finish the battle, I will avenge my father and the child in Jaeyoung's womb! ”

"What? I heard you right?! Hahahaha, Zhang Shumo, are you crazy? Now that I am outnumbered, why should I let you withdraw your troops? But when it comes to Lou Zaiying, I have to say, after all, what she is pregnant with is my own nephew, but unfortunately Lou Zaiying was too unbeaten, so she was kicked, and my nephew was gone. Tut-tut, what a pity! ”

Zhang Yuwan deliberately smiled victoriously at Zhang Shumo.

Pang Yuan on the side immediately raised his gun and stepped out: "Childe, give the order to charge, I will take Zhang Yu's Xiang Shang's head!" ”

Zhang Shumo also clenched his back molars, the fetus in Lou Zaiying's womb was a sore spot in Zhang Shumo's heart, how could this breath be swallowed by Zhang Shumo? However, Zhang Shumo understood that these 70,000 troops were the last combat strength of Huaiguo, and if they could not be put into the battlefield in the south, the Zheng Guo's troops, who had an absolute advantage, were likely to occupy most of the southern part of Huaiguo in a very short period of time, and eventually threaten the safety of Qinyang City.

So, Zhang Shumo could only hold back the anger in his heart and yelled at Zhang Yu: "Zhang Yu, I remind you for the last time!" If we go to war at this moment, the people who die will be the best men of my country. When the war in the south is tight, and you and I are short of soldiers and horses due to internal friction, what can you do to resist Zheng Guo's attack? ”

Zhang Yu also lowered his face and yelled at Zhang Shumo: "You don't have these empty words here!" If you really care about the war in the south, why did you bring troops to Qinyang? Why don't you just take your troops to the south to defend against Zheng Guo? Why should I let my soldiers resist Zheng Guo's attack, while you lead your own men to encroach on the eastern territory of our country? By the time I blocked Zheng Guo, you would have already occupied half of Huaiguo, so I would rather give up the southern territory to Zheng Guo than let you occupy the territory of Dongbian in vain! ”

Hearing this, Zhang Shumo couldn't help laughing: "Hahaha! Why? If you want to be emperor! Will the king of a country only do things to his own family? Would you rather give up your territory to Jeong-kook? How can you say anything about such a rebellion? Do you know why my father hesitated to become the crown prince? Just because you are a disloyal, unfilial, unkind and unrighteous person! ”
