Chapter 632: The Prince is Trapped
Seeing that the prince did not listen to persuasion, Gou Yu insisted on participating in the war, and collapsed suddenly. Although this kid has some martial arts, he has been studying and practicing martial arts in a peaceful environment, and has never really fought a battle. Not to mention any combat experience. What good results can you get out of a sudden fight with a powerful enemy?
Gou Yu fell out of favor and worked hard for 20 years, and the prince was her only hope. If the prince friend has three longs and two shorts, how can she live?
At this time, Xi Shi also heard the news and rushed to persuade her, but she had no good way to get Gou out of the predicament, and she could only accompany Gou Yu to cry relatively. Not to mention.
King Wu went out to take away all the troops that could fight, and only a few thousand temporarily recruited recruits remained in Gusu, and most of them were old, weak, sick and disabled. With such a force, how can it fight against the Vietnamese army?
Prince You is young and vigorous, knowing that he is not an opponent of the Vietnamese army, and he is not willing to wait for death, so he has to fight. On the one hand, he sent a fast horse to ask for help from King Wu, and on the other hand, he summoned the guards Wang Sun Miyong and Wang Zidi to hold a simple meeting, and then arranged to defend the city.
After a hundred years of operation, especially since Wu Zixu took charge of the army, Gusu City has been continuously strengthened and has perfect facilities, and it is a solid fortress. Although there was no army in the city, there were still tens of thousands of people, and if they held on behind closed doors, it would not be easy to break through.
Suddenly, one day, it was reported that the Vietnamese army had arrived in the city, and the prince led everyone to go up to the city tower to watch, only to see that only the front line of the Vietnamese army came from outside the city. The number of troops is less than 10,000.
Wang Sun Miyong said: "Your Highness, Wang Sun went out to fight. Kill the prestige of the Vietnamese army. ”
Wang Zidi said: "The general will fight first, and I will lead troops to respond, forming a flank attack, and I can win a battle." ”
The prince said, "The general is careful. ”
So, Wang Sun Miyong led a team of men and horses to the outside of the city and said in a loud voice: "Who is coming?" ”
A general of the Vietnamese army came out and replied: "There is no room for this general." ”
Wang Sun Miyong said: "The two kingdoms of Wu and Yue have been repaired for 20 years, why did they suddenly lead troops to attack? ”
Chou Wuyu replied: "The army of Wu destroyed my country, humiliated my monarch, and bullied Yue for 20 years. ”
Wang Sun Miyong was furious: "Yue Wang Yang is disobedient, playing conspiracy, engaging in tricks, and being a young man, it is useless to talk more, let's fight." "Straight up, straight to the ground.
There was no room to swing his sword to meet the battle, the two fought in one place, and the two horses shuttled back and forth. The soldiers on both sides beat drums and shouted cheers.
Chou Wuyu is a fierce general in the Vietnamese army, and after a few rounds, Wang Sun Miyong showed defeat and was unable to support his strength. At this moment, the city gate was opened, and Wang Zidi led a bunch of people and horses to rush out and catch the fight.
There is no room for one battle or two, without fear, and it can be both offensive and defensive. Three horses come and go, and the battle is thirty rounds, regardless of victory or defeat.
Suddenly, a cold arrow flew and shot at the front legs of the war horses, the front legs of the war horses were weak, their bodies were weightless, and they fell to the ground in one fell swoop. Chou Wuyu was dealing with two opponents with all his might, and he was defenseless and rolled off his horse at once. Wang Sun Miyong rushed over and put his spear against the throat of Chou Wuyu, and shouted: "Tie up! ”
Wu Bing rushed up, tied Chou Wuyu into a sturdy knot, and brought him back to the city. Here, Wang Sun Miyong and Wang Zidi commanded the army to cover the past. Those Vietnamese troops had no main general, where was there still a heart to fight, and they scattered with a "hula" and fled for their lives.
The first battle of the Wu army defending the city was victorious and greatly encouraged.
Gou Yu was very happy when he saw his son return safely, and said, "Your Highness, this battle has just begun, and although we have won a small victory, we must not act rashly because of this." Mother didn't know anything about war. But please keep your highness behind closed doors, and wait for your father to come back to save him. ”
She has no feelings for King Wu, and she doesn't care if Wu wins or loses, the only thing she cares about is that her son doesn't have an accident.
When Xi Shi heard that the Vietnamese army was attacking, his mood was very complicated. She has been waiting for nearly twenty years, looking forward to the arrival of the Yue army, and she will be able to be with Fan Li day and night. But she has lived with King Wu for twenty years, and she also has feelings, and she is worried that King Wu will escape for his life. In this chaotic army, his own safety is not guaranteed, and any soldier who runs can kill himself with a sword. Everything is unknown. She couldn't do anything but comfort each other with Gou Yu.
Goujian, the king of Yue, led the army forward, and suddenly heard that the generals of the front team were captured, so he commanded the army to speed up and quickly rushed to the outside of Gusu City.
Standing on top of the city tower, the prince looked at the Vietnamese army from a distance, and saw that the army was neat, the queue was neat, and the flags were spreading, stretching for more than ten miles. I can't help but feel chilled in my heart. said: "The Vietnamese army is too strong, we are not opponents, as long as we close the city gates, hold on without a fight, and wait for my father to return to the army to rescue." ”
Wang Sun Miyong won a small victory, full of confidence, and said: "Your Highness, the entire Yue army was wiped out that year, and even the country was destroyed, and their fear of the Wu army has always been there. They can't do it in terms of momentum, and they have come from afar, and they are already very tired, if we win another battle, they will definitely retreat, and the state of Wu will be saved. Even if we can't win, it's not too late for us to retreat to the city. ”
The prince felt that this was reasonable, and said, "Okay, then we will open the city gate and fight again." ”
So he sent Wang Sun Miyong to meet the enemy, and the prince led a team to reinforce him.
Fan Li was in the Vietnamese army brigade, and when he saw the prince and friend going out of the city to face the battle, he couldn't help but secretly complain, and said secretly: "Why is this kid so ignorant? The 100,000 troops of the Yue Kingdom, can you resist? ”
Gou Yu entered the palace because of Xi Shi and fell out of favor for 20 years, only because Xi Shi was sick and Wu Wang stayed in Gou Shi and gave birth to a prince. Gou Yu was lonely and miserable, and he had a son to survive. Now that the prince is rushing to fight, if there are three long and two short, the hook will be over.
Fan Li has been in Wu for nearly 20 years, and has had a lot of contact with Gou, sympathizes with Gou, pities Gou, and hopes that when Wu is destroyed, Gouhui can have a good end. If his son dies, what will Gou Yu do?
King Yue personally immediately supervised the battle. The formation was set, and the generals and Xiangguo Wen each led their teams out from the two wings. It's not like that's the kind of formation at all. The Wu army was on a strong offensive and was like a storm. Wu soldiers are brave and accustomed to fighting, all go out with the king of Wu, and there are no untaught soldiers in his country, and the Yue army is an elite soldier trained for several years, with bows, crossbows, swords, and halberds, which is very strong. He is also a veteran general who has been in battle for a long time, how can the Wu army resist?
In the middle of the war, Wang Sun Miyong slashed his horse with a knife for the sake of catharsis.
Prince You was surrounded by the Vietnamese army in the core, and it was impossible to withdraw to the city.
King Yue saw a young general on the battlefield in front of the battle, although he was besieged, he was fighting very tenaciously, and couldn't help but admire: "What a young general, do you know who it is?" ”
Someone told him that this was the prince of Wu. King Yue laughed: "Fucha, you are going to cut off your children and grandchildren!" ”
Fan Li gritted his teeth and said secretly: "I must save the prince's friend, otherwise the hook will be over." He said, "King, I will take down this boy." With that, he rushed into the battle formation.
