Chapter 361: Clash of Words
As the Turkic and Zhou armies broke through the city one after another, the chaos outside the city quickly spread to the city, and the chaos became more and more fierce in the small Liucheng.
In the eastern part of the city, the courtyard that was once neat and tidy is no longer organized, and the atmosphere has become tense. This is the stronghold of the snake spirit in Liucheng, and it is the "office" of Xiao Qingfang and the Khitan. At this time, the subordinates of the snake spirit in the city are basically gathered here.
"Turks? The Great Zhou Army? Where did it come from? Listening to the shouts and killings that were getting closer and closer, staring at the subordinates who had returned from the inquiry in front of her, the masked woman hurriedly asked. Just by its voice, you can tell that it is surprised.
"Back to the hall master, it has been clarified. The Xicheng Turkic Khan's silent Daxu has been erected, and the south is also headed by the banner of the word 'Yuan', and the two sides are working together to attack Liucheng, and the Turks and the Great Zhou seem to be united," the subordinate of the snake spirit replied very quickly.
"Mo Si Yuan, Yuan Hui!" The woman's curved eyebrows froze: "Where did the Turks come from?" Where did the Great Zhou Army come from? Yuan Hui, isn't he a soldier in Lulongsai? How could they suddenly join forces with the Turks to attack Liucheng? ”
"My subordinates don't know!"
"Of course you don't!" Glancing at her subordinates indifferently, the woman's jade hand clenched, smashed together, paced two steps, turned around and asked, "What is the response from Li Qianzhong's side, is there no news yet?" ”
"This is the strangest thing, Liucheng was attacked, Li Quanzhong's side didn't react, and it was Li who was responsible for the enemy."
"Oh? Yes! The woman made a contemplative gesture, all kinds of details passed through her mind, and she slowly stopped, and her mocking tone was unusually affirmative: "Li Qianzhong is only afraid that something will happen, and he is even dead!" ”
Several subordinates glanced at each other, not knowing where the hall master got his conclusion. They were all waiting for the woman to come up with an idea, and seeing that she looked thoughtful again, one of them asked urgently, "Hall Master, what should we do?" ”
"The army of the Turks and the Great Zhou has entered the city, and they will kill anyone when they see it, Liucheng is no longer safe, we have to retreat immediately."
The cold gaze swept towards the subordinates of the emperor, the woman's eyes blinked slightly, waved her hand, and said very calmly: "Then withdraw!" ”
"Have you arranged all the manpower outside the city?"
"Please rest assured, the ferry head will be available at any time!"
Turning his head to look at the south, his beautiful eyes flickered a few times, and he whispered in his mouth: "Perhaps, some plans can be advanced"
Dealing with the traces, a group of dozens of people found out of the small courtyard, and the narrow streets and alleys in the city were in chaos, quickly cutting down the Khitan people blocking the road, and quickly moving towards the east of the city.
The east city is adjacent to the river, and there is no attack by the Zhou army and the Khitans. Of course, there were not many clever people, and those who wanted to flee from the east gate hugged each other and blocked the way
After all, the snake spirit people failed to retreat calmly, and fled to the dock to the east, inevitably embarrassed.
At the same time, the overall situation in the city is set, and the empty Liucheng, where can it withstand the attacks of the two sides, after breaking the city, it will be even more defeated. On the side of Yuan Hui, in addition to sending cavalry to drive and kill the Khitans outside the city and continue to create chaos, he ordered people to occupy the inside and outside of the south gate to keep the back road in and out. Yuan Hui himself, on the other hand, personally led elite troops and assaulted his governor's mansion.
During the attack, there was a small episode, and Li Yuanfang, who had disappeared for several months, appeared. Not only that, but he also led dozens of Zhou people who were enslaved in Liucheng to assist in the march.
Rong Ma was handsome, and he didn't have time to talk in detail, but only chatted a few words, and then under the guidance of Li Yuanfang and others, he went straight to the governor's mansion. Obviously, Li Yuanfang has not been in vain in Liucheng in the past few months, and he is very familiar with the roads and alleys in the city.
The Turks were the first to break through the city, and when they arrived at the Governor's Mansion, thousands of Turkic soldiers were killing the Khitan remnants of the trapped beasts. It is worthy of the Khan's guards, they are still brave enough, and they have the heart to die, and they still caused some casualties to the Turks by taking advantage of the weak location of the mansion.
After only glancing at the situation, Yuan Hui immediately led people to join the battle circle, and his governor's mansion could not fall into the hands of the Turks. The Great Zhou army and the Turks finally came into contact head-on, and they couldn't avoid it, and as the recalcitrant Khitan soldiers were extinguished, the previous tacit understanding was instantly broken, and the conflict broke out.
The subordinates could not restrain themselves, and the conflict quickly expanded, and before they could count the spoils of war, they surrounded the governor's mansion, and the two sides beat up, and the number of dead and wounded exceeded 100 in a short time.
It was still in Yuan Hui and Mo Si who arrived at the house one after another, personally ordered the bullet to be suppressed, and the soldiers on both sides were opened. Yuan Langjun rushed to Yingzhou to deal with the Khitan, and since the goal was achieved, he didn't want to fight to the death with the Turks. Mo Si over there, probably with the same thoughts.
The Governor's Mansion was rapidly divided into north and south, with the lobby as the boundary, with the Zhou army occupying the south and the Turks occupying the north. On the hall that has been arranged into a mourning hall, Yuan Hui swept Li Qianzhong's corpse in the middle, quite surprised, and then made a sudden statement: "I see, this fang has already died."
Around the mourning hall, the two sides of Zhou Shu and the Turks were still facing each other, guarding each other, but they were obviously very restrained. Inside and outside the hall, in addition to the corpses of the Khitans, many people also fell on both sides, mostly Turkics.
couldn't help but glance at Li Yuanfang, who was dressed in tatters and holding a chain knife in his hand. It is said that Yuan Fang had previously chopped Turkic soldiers as Muggles
"Yuan Hui?" On the side, Mo Si, who arrived early, had been paying attention to Yuan Langjun, and when he saw him in the hall, he looked around, completely ignoring him as a Turkic Khan, and finally couldn't help shouting, his face was angry.
Leisurely, Yuan Langjun seemed to pay attention to Mo Si: "Who are you, dare to call this general by name?" ”
That casual posture directly angered a general beside Mo Si, who stepped forward and angrily reprimanded: "Bold, dare to be rude to my Great Turkic Mo Si Khan!" ”
Without even looking at the Turkic general, Yuan Hui pretended to be surprised, and looked Mo Si up and down even more rudely: "So you are Mo Si, Turkic Khan?" Since you claim to be a minister to my Great Zhou, why don't you salute when you see the generals of the Celestial Empire? ”
"You!" Yuan Langjun obviously had a provocative meaning, silently sobbing about anyone, his face was full of anger, and he was about to have a seizure, so he held back vigorously.
"The prestige of the general, Mo Si has been famous for a long time, see me today, hehe" also looked at Yuan Lang Jun, Mo Si smiled, with mockery on his lips.
Yuan Hui didn't care, and smiled at it.
Seeing Yuan Langjun's calm posture, Mo Si frowned, glanced at the soldiers beside him, and asked coldly: "I don't know why General Yuan is leading the army here?" ”
Hearing his words, Yuan Hui couldn't help but sneer: "The Khitan raised troops and attacked my Great Zhou." Your Majesty has entrusted me with the power of exclusive conscription, and this governor commands the army to attack it, why is it strange? Isn't it reasonable for me to be appointed as the governor of Yingzhou and take back the governor's office? ”
Then he asked with a cold face: "On the contrary, it is the Mosi Khan, why is it so?" ”
Seeing that Yuan Langjun's face changed instantly, he was slightly surprised in his heart, and then said with a slight meaning: "Ben Khan heard that the Khitan was in turmoil, and specially led the troops to assist the Great Zhou to quell the rebellion, and he has obtained the permission of His Majesty the Great Zhou Emperor. Why, doesn't General Yuan know? ”
With his eyebrows horizontal, he met the silent gaze, and Yuan Hui pointed out: "The Khan is thousands of miles away, and the timing is really just right."
"General Yuan's arrival here is also unexpected!"
"That's right!" As he spoke, he raised his neck and glanced at Yuan Langjun: "Before, Ben Khan was awarded the title of General of the Left Guard by the Emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty."
Paying attention to his expression, the corners of Yuan Hui's mouth twitched, and he casually hugged his fist at him: "General Mosip!" Hehe, this is polite! ”
