Chapter 102: The Eight Kings Plan

Since there was a simple way to break through the city, Zhu Yiluan immediately arranged it, and at the same time, the scale of the entire siege was much smaller.

In the two days of siege, due to the eagerness to take Changsha City to save the decadent morale, the rebels can be said to have fought hard, in just two days, there were nearly 10,000 soldiers scattered blood under the city, which is not enough for Zhu Yiluan, who is currently short of troops, is tantamount to cutting meat on the thigh, and I feel distressed when I think about it.

Now that he has another way, he is naturally reluctant to let his soldiers and horses lose their lives in vain, and Cheng Jingye and others also agree to this, after all, this day will be a loss of 5,000 men and horses, and no one can bear it.

They are struggling, the second brother in the city has been worried about the past two days, the rebels at any cost to attack the city is greatly beyond his expectations, the original confident holding on to the period of three months has also been reduced by him to half a month, the grain and grass is enough, but 50,000 soldiers and horses are far from enough, six thousand casualties in two days, it is really a terrifying number.

"Fuck, it seems that Zhu Yiluan is really in a hurry, how can there be such a siege, he won't feel distressed if he loses so many soldiers and horses!" Brother Erdan, who hadn't left the city for two days and two nights, couldn't help but sigh when he watched the tide of the rebels reced, fortunately their offensive stopped, otherwise he would still think that this was a group of madmen?

"The rebels are so eager to take Changsha, it can be seen that the situation has reached a certain point, and Lord Shen is very likely to be not far from Changsha!" Sikong Wang's face is calm, this is a person who is good at thinking.

Speaking of Shen Chongming, who was not far away, Brother Erdan's face changed instantly, and he said a little proudly: "As soon as the adults lead the troops to arrive, we will lead the troops out of the city, so that the rebels can see, my Ma Erdan is not the kind of sick cat who is bullied!" ”

For Brother Erdan's temper these days, Sikong Wang can be regarded as having a thorough understanding, don't look at the braggings he brags about every day, but there are a lot of small abacus in his heart, and he can figure out one, two, or three in everything.

"If the adults are really not far from Changsha, the rebels should be more anxious to attack the city, how can they suddenly retreat without warning?" Brother Erdan touched his chin and pondered: "Lord Fei has arrived, Brother Sikong, give me clairvoyance, you have to take a good look!" ”

This sounded reasonable, and Sikong Wang hurriedly handed him the clairvoyance, and stood on tiptoe to look at it.

"Nope! What's going on! Brother Erdan looked at the banners of the rebels for a long time, and he didn't find the banners of the army led by Shen Chongming at all, and there was no movement in the rear barracks of the rebels, it didn't look like an enemy attacking, so the rebels suddenly canceled the offensive, but it was weird.

"The rebels have not stopped their offensive for two days and two nights, could it be that the rebel sergeants can't stand the temporary truce and rest!" Sikong Wang's words are reasonable.

But even he couldn't convince himself if this was reasonable: "But the war has reached such a point, it shouldn't give us a chance to breathe, Han Yuzhi, we are married!" ”

"What Brother Sikong said is very true, I'm afraid that the rebels have other plans!" Brother Erdan nodded and said, agreeing with Sikong Wang's analysis: "Could it be that they see that Changsha City can't be attacked, and they plan to withdraw their troops!" ”

Sikong Wang shook his head and said, "That's not it, it's already fought to such an extent, if the troops are withdrawn, then there will be no value in losing so many people in the past two days!" ”

"It's not either, it's not either, could it be that the rebels have another way to break the city!" Brother Erdan blinked and looked at Sikong Wang and said.

Sikong Wang nodded: "It is very likely that this is the case, after all, King Ji has been in Changsha for nearly a hundred years, this Changsha is their own territory, and they know every grass and tree very well, and it is reasonable that there are other ways to enter the city!" ”

"Makes sense!" Brother Erdan nodded and said, but his brows were deeply furrowed, he could be said to know nothing about the rebels outside the city, and he couldn't do anything to prevent them from finding another way!

"Look, they're going to attack the city again!" Just as Brother Erdan was thinking hard, Sikong Wang suddenly pointed to the distance and said, only to see a group of rebels carrying a ladder and walking listlessly towards the city wall, like a group of hungry men who had not eaten for three days.

Brother Erdan sneered, looked at Sikong Wang and said, "Brother Sikong, it seems that we guessed correctly, the rebels must have other strategies to break through the city!" ”

Sikong Wang nodded, frowning and thinking, how did the rebels plan to attack Cheng? Since the army entered the city, Erdan has been ready to hold on, and the first thing he did was to eliminate the suspicious people in the city, so as not to prevent the rebels from attacking the city and destroying the city's defense.

This road is impassable, and the rebels want to easily break through the city, but there is no way!

"Could it be that there is a secret passage leading to the outside of the city!" Such a thought suddenly crossed his mind, and Sikong Wang immediately exclaimed, he was able to dig a tunnel to sneak into someone else's house, so why couldn't the rebels enter the city through the tunnel?

Brother Erdan was taken aback, and then shook his head and said: "Impossible, the foundation of the city wall of Changsha City is two zhang deep, if the rebels want to dig a tunnel to sneak into the city, they must get out of the way, but Changsha is surrounded by water on three sides, and if the tunnel is deep, it will overflow, and the tunnel will collapse at that time, and no one will be allowed to sneak in!" ”

"What you said makes sense, it's impossible to dig a tunnel into the city in a short period of time, but don't forget, King Ji's Mansion has been in Changsha for nearly a hundred years, and it is not difficult to build a secret passage for such a long time!" There was a hint of a smile in Sikong Wang's eyes, as long as he could basically determine the plan of the rebels, it would be much easier to deal with it.

Brother Erdan nodded, rubbed his palms and said: "It makes sense, now we have no other clue, and we can only make arrangements according to this speculation, no matter how the rebels sneak into the city, we will have to deal with it a lot of trouble!" ”

"If it is really from the secret passage, then the exit of this secret passage must be in the Ji Wangfu, why don't we send someone into the palace to search, if we can find it, then it would be great!" Sikong looked at the rebels who were gradually finishing on the city wall and said, the rebel generals are too careless, and anyone will doubt this look.

The conspiracy has been discovered, and Zhu Yiluan, who is outside the city, doesn't know that he is still dreaming of himself at this time.

"The loss of Changsha City is a good move of the imperial court, according to Gu's opinion, only Shen Chongming has such courage and insight, you say, is he in the city at this time?" Zhu Yiluan looked at the three brothers Cheng Jingye and said.

Liu Zhen and Jinda have become cautious since they lost Changsha City, and they have to look at Cheng Jingye's eyes to do things when they say and do things, and when Zhu Yiluan asked, he immediately set his eyes on Cheng Jingye.

"What the little prince said is very true, the people of the court ignore the rest of the city, and take the risk of taking Changsha directly, this kind of method is not something that the wine bags and rice bags in the court can think of, according to the opinions of his subordinates, there is ** is this Shen Chongming's idea super immortal book!" Cheng Jingye said with some excitement, what calculations Zhu Yiluan had in his heart, he couldn't be clearer in his heart.

Seeing that Cheng Jingye agreed with his point of view, Zhu Yiluan suddenly became excited, and stood up excitedly and paced back and forth in the tent: "If Lei Leopard can capture and kill Shen Chongming this time, it will be even better, in addition to this big disaster, the next battle will be much easier to deal with!" ”

"If this is the case, the manpower of Lei Leopard alone is a little insufficient, for the sake of safety, my subordinates think that it is best to send more people to sneak into the city from the secret passage after Lei Leopard, and even if Lei Leopard is lost, we can also take advantage of Shen Chongming's unpreparedness to kill him!" Cheng Jingye said viciously, Shen Chongming is a person with a lot of scheming, and it is not much less valuable to get rid of him and recapture Changsha.

Zhu Yiluan nodded, looked at Liu Zhen and Jinda and said, "Since this is the case, then the two of you will select some more people to follow Lei Leopard and sneak into the city, remember, let him take the lead, it is best to lead Shen Chongming!" ”

Liu Zhen Jinda was taken aback, there were so many people in the court in the city, even if he could kill Shen Chongming, he might not have the life to come out alive, this time it can be said that he would die nine deaths! Lei Leopard is used to this kind of business, naturally he will not be afraid, and there must be a way for him to get out, and now let his two brothers sneak in after Lei Leopard, this is simply to send it to death!

Just as he was looking for an excuse to push off this errand, Liu Zhen suddenly saw Cheng Jingye glaring at him, and swallowed back the words that came to his mouth.

The loss of Changsha is already a big crime. Although this matter has been revealed, the little prince must still be dissatisfied with the two of them in his heart, if this matter shirks this errand, it will definitely cause him to be unhappy, in case he turns over the old accounts, it will really be impossible to eat and go around.

"Yes, my subordinates will arrange it!" Liu Zhen replied with his fists clenched, and looked at the kick of Jinda, who was stunned on the side, and the difficult brother walked out of the big tent in a hurry.

"Big brother, the little prince is obviously forcing us to die! Shen Chongming is such an important person, there must be a group of guards around him, and you and my brothers go to take his life, it is absolutely lifeless! Jinda said angrily, could it be that Zhu Yiluan borrowed a knife to kill people!

Liu Zhen also gritted his teeth: "Who said no, but now that you and my brothers are guilty, if you shirk it, I'm afraid that we will be pushed out and cut at this time, so even if it is a dead end this time, we have to bite the bullet!" ”

"Big brother, the little brother is not afraid of death, but this is the pit of other people's lives, this breath of the little brother can't swallow it, if we escape, why bother working for others here!" Jinda said angrily.

Liu Zhen smiled bitterly: "There are dozens of miles within a radius of the little prince's men and horses, how can you and I escape, and now we can only sneak into the city to have a fight!" ”

Jinda punched hard, knowing that it was a dead end, and he had to bite the bullet, which was disgusting enough.

"Don't worry too much, didn't we sneak in through the secret passage, then we can let our subordinates rush out, you and I will stay at the entrance to observe, and when we see that the situation is not good, we will retreat, even if we miss, he Zhu Yiluan will not be able to say anything!" Liu Zhen sneered, as soon as this matter is over, he has to find a way to get out of here, he can't take Changsha City, the hope of Zhu Yiluan winning this battle is too slim, and following him is just a dead end.

For his method, Jin Da pondered it carefully and was also happy: "What my brother said is that this is like the king eight, who shrank his head into the shell when he saw that there was danger, and others couldn't take him!" ”

Although this metaphor is ugly, it is also vivid, Liu Zhen smiled and said: "Since this is the case, then you go and choose some reliable people, and we will leave later!" ”
