Chapter 31: Commander of the Forbidden Army

Tai Shi Sheng led the army back to Yinghui City, and scolded Tai Shi Jun: "Tai Shi Jun, you are not small, even my generals dare to disobey my orders, do you still have a father in your eyes!" Yes? ”

Tai Shijun said: "Don't be angry with your father, the child also wants to share his worries for his father, so he summoned the Tuntian soldiers out of the city to face the battle." ”

"Listen to me, from now on, no one is allowed to go out of the city to face the battle, and anyone who disobeys the general's order will be killed! As long as we can't hold on, he Zong Yanxiao will not be able to attack this Yinghui City even if he attacks it for a year. ”

Zong Yanxiao led his army to set up a large camp outside the east gate of Yinghui City. He ordered the crossbowmen to fire arrows at the city, each of which had a note tied to it.

Yin Rong stood at the head of the city, caught a feather arrow with his hand, he opened the note and looked at it, was shocked, and ran to see Tai Shisheng.

Tai Shisheng read the note, sneered, tore the note to shreds, and said: "This note says that the army under the command of the general has been wiped out in Ruizhou, which is ridiculous!" This is Zong Yanxiao's plan to attack the heart, General Yin, you quickly go and tell the soldiers defending the city, just say that the general has defeated the Ruizhou army, and he will rush back soon to reinforce them, so that they can defend the city with peace of mind. ”

"No! That's what I'm going to do. ”

Zong Yanxiao led the army to storm the city, and he did not capture it for more than half a month, and he saw that the battle situation was unfavorable, so he could only order a temporary stop to the siege.

On this day, Zong Yanxiao was looking through the military book in the big tent of the Chinese army, and a personal soldier entered the tent and said: "General Yu, Cen Envoy Jun has arrived." ”

Zong Yanxiao hurriedly got up and walked out of the big tent.

"The last general has seen the envoy!" Zong Yanxiao said.

Cen Liangzhi smiled and asked, "General Zong, I heard that you were wounded by an arrow, how are you strong?" ”

"The last general was only slightly injured, and there was no major problem, and the envoy was worried."

Cen Liangzhi said: "General Zong, I have read your battle report, since our siege of the city has been frustrated, it is better to withdraw to Zhanzhou for the time being." ”

Zong Yanxiao said: "Envoy, the fighter plane must not be lost, we must not withdraw our troops at this time." ”

Cen Liangting scolded: "The bold Zong Yanxiao, it is really rude to dare to talk to the envoy like this!" You have been besieging the city for more than half a month, and you have not achieved an inch, if Ling Ji leads a large army back to help, can you resist it? ”

Zong Yanxiao retorted: "Don't drive Cen, how much do you know about this march and battle?" Now Ling Ju doesn't dare to retreat, as soon as he retreats, he will be completely wiped out by the Ruizhou army, and if he doesn't attack Yinghui City now, there will be no chance in the future. ”

Cen Liangzhi listened to the words of the two people, thought for a while, and said: "General Zong, I brought over three thousand heavy armored infantry troops this time, just let them stay by your side, you can use them for siege." ”

Zong Yanxiao knelt down and said, "The last general is here to thank the envoy!" If Yinghui City is not captured, the last general will never return to Zhanzhou alive. ”

Cen Liangzhi helped Zong Yanxiao up and said, "You can't say that, even if you really can't attack it, you have to go back alive, and no one dares to blame you." ”

In the Che Cavalry General's Mansion, Tai Shisheng was discussing the war with everyone, and at this time, the doorman came in and said: "General, Wu Licheng, the commander of the forbidden army, is outside the mansion, and he has something to see the general." ”

"Let him in."

Wu Licheng is nearly forty years old, burly, and his eyes are bright.

"Commander Wu, what is the matter with you coming to my mansion?" Tai Shisheng asked.

Wu Licheng said: "General Taishi, the Zhanzhou army is attacking the city, and I am willing to lead five thousand forbidden troops to help the general defend the city." ”

"No need, Commander Wu, you don't need your forbidden army now, you just need to protect the palace."

"Look at this, I'll send half of the forbidden army over...

Before Wu Licheng finished speaking, Tai Shisheng interrupted him and said: "Commander Wu, I said it, you don't need your forbidden army to defend the city, you can go back to the palace if you don't have anything to do, we have to discuss the war." ”

Wu Licheng arched his hand, turned around and left the Cheqi General's Mansion, as soon as he returned to the palace, he went to see the Son of Heaven.

"Your Majesty." Wu Licheng knelt down and bowed.

The Son of Heaven said: "Commander Wu get up, you haven't come to see me for half a year, what is the matter with seeing me today?" ”

Wu Licheng stood up and said, "Your Majesty, the minister came today and has something important to tell Your Majesty." ”

"No need, Commander Wu, you are Ling Ju's henchman, don't tell me anything about it, go and talk to Ling." The Son of Heaven said coldly.

Wu Licheng said: "Your Majesty, the minister is not the henchman of the old thief, the minister is finally Your Majesty." ”

The Son of Heaven smiled bitterly and said: "Now that this court is almost full of Ling Ju's minions, how many people can be loyal to me?" ”

"Your Majesty, now that the Zhanzhou army is outside the city, the ministers will find a way to open the city gate, let them in, and then kill all the defenders in the city and burn down the general's mansion in Lingju!"

"Commander Wu, I'll tell you the truth, I don't believe you, and when you do, I'll see you again."

"Your Majesty, the minister will do it."

Wu Licheng walked out of the main hall, with a sad face, he originally wanted to pretend to help Tai Shisheng defend the city, and then look for an opportunity to open the city gate and let the Zan Zhou army enter the city, but Tai Shisheng didn't let him defend the city, it seems that he has to find another way.

That night, Tai Shisheng was sleeping soundly, and was suddenly awakened by the shouting of killing, he hurriedly stood up, put on his coat, and came out of the room with his sword.

At this time, Tai Shijun hurriedly ran over.

"Jun'er, has the Zhanzhou army entered the city?" Tai Shisheng asked.

"It's not the Zhanzhou army, it's Wu Licheng's forbidden army, and they're attacking the mansion."

"This Wu Licheng, what does he want to do? Let's go, go to the house gate. ”

Wu Licheng led the forbidden army to crash open the gate of the Cheqi General's Mansion, and the forbidden army entered the mansion and started a fierce battle with the guards in the mansion.

Tai Shi Jun said to Tai Shi Sheng: "Father, you hide first, and then you will come out after the child has killed the forbidden army." ”

"Jokes, I'm not going to hide. Yin Ling will lead the army to come over in a while, and these forbidden troops have been sparse for a long time, and they are not vulnerable at all. ”

Wu Licheng saw Tai Shisheng and shouted loudly: "Tai Shisheng, take your life!" After speaking, he swung his knife and took Tai Shisheng directly, Tai Shijun blocked Wu Licheng with a spear, and the two fought.

After all, the guards in the Che Cavalry General's Mansion were few and were quickly killed. At this time, Yin Rong led the army to come and surrounded the forbidden army in the mansion.

Wu Licheng and Tai Shijun fought for thirty or forty rounds without a victory, Wu Licheng saw that the situation was not good, he did not dare to fight, and ordered a retreat. When he ran to the gate of the mansion, he found that Yin Ling had already led people to seal the gate of the mansion.

"Commander Wu, you are surrounded, where do you want to escape? Hurry up and put down your weapons and surrender. Yin Rong said.

Wu Licheng didn't answer, he led the army to rush over, the two sides fought desperately at the gate of the mansion, Wu Licheng's knife cut out of the gap, and he still couldn't rush out.

Yin Rong and Tai Shijun fought Wu Licheng together, Wu Licheng fought one against two, there was no fear on his face, and when he fought to the twentieth round, Tai Shijun stabbed Wu Licheng's left leg with a shot, Wu Licheng's pace slowed down and was captured.

Tai Shijun brought Wu Licheng over, and Tai Shisheng asked: "Wu Licheng, you dare to lead the forbidden army to attack my mansion in the middle of the night, what do you want to do?" Are you going to betray the general? ”

Wu Licheng laughed, gritted his teeth and said: "You're right, I'm going to betray him, I'm going to kill all of you, kill them all!" ”

"Kill them all? You don't stand a chance. Tai Shisheng pulled out his saber and pointed it at Wu Licheng's throat with his saber, "Say, did the Son of Heaven let you kill me?" ”

"No, I want to kill you! Tai Shisheng, if you have the guts, kill me now! Wu Licheng shouted loudly.

"You want to beg for death, I don't agree, come here, put Wu Licheng in prison, and don't let anyone see him."

"No!"

Tai Shi Sheng said: "Jun'er, go, follow your father into the palace to see the Son of Heaven." ”

Tai Shisheng led the armor to break into the palace and came to the front of the Son of Heaven.

"Tai Shisheng, why did you bring so many armor soldiers into the palace?"

Tai Shisheng said coldly: "Your Majesty, Wu Licheng, the commander of the forbidden army, killed the minister's mansion in the middle of the night, and almost took the minister's life, and the minister was panicked." ”

The Son of Heaven walked in front of Tai Shisheng and said, "Do you want to say that Wu Licheng was sent by me?" ”

Tai Shisheng looked at the Son of Heaven and stopped talking.

"I didn't send him, but I'm glad he did."
