Chapter 175: Defending the City
、、、、、、、
Sun Yingyuan waved his hand to let his subordinates retreat, and only Huang Degong and the two of them were left in the tent, then he said to Huang Degong with a worried face behind his back: "What else can I do?" If we go out of the camp for a decisive battle now, with the ferocity of the thief army, we have no chance of winning at all, and we can't fight! In today's plan, the only way to drag it down is to wait for Xiong Du Fu to send troops to help! If Zuo Liangyu can lead a large number of people to come, this battle can still be fought, otherwise, we can only sit and wait! I didn't expect that! Although the lowly position has long heard that the punishment of the heavenly thieves is fierce, but I didn't expect them to be so powerful! With such a strength of ours, they were actually pressed into the camp and could not leave the camp! ”
Huang Degong sighed and said, "How can I not know! At the beginning of the battle in Baofeng Hongshi Mountain, I learned their power, this time I heard that they took the initiative to attack, originally thought that we were based on the camp, it is estimated that we can still delay with them for a while, but I didn't think that they still only took three days, and they defeated the officer's soldiers and horses! What a way to go on like this! Looking at the world, even if Guan Ningjun is counted, who can still be their opponent?
It's only to blame that Shanxi Governor Wu Fu, if it weren't for his carelessness, let this fang sit big in Jinnan and exterminate it early, how could it be so fierce? Raising tigers is a problem! This is really a tiger breeding!
Originally, our Ming officers and soldiers had very sharp firearms, but I didn't think that the firearms of this thief army far exceeded the firearms of our officers and soldiers, and this battle couldn't be fought at all! …… Let's not talk about that!
At present, our army has been broken by the thief army, and the thief army will immediately turn the blade to deal with your group tomorrow, if you still hold the camp, maybe you will follow in my footsteps! So you'd better plan ahead! ”
After listening to Huang Degong's reminder, Sun Yingyuan gasped, in the past three days, he only cared about finding a way to deal with Huang Degong, and now Huang Degong's department has been destroyed, leaving him with a partial division to stay outside Runing City, with the ferocity of the thief army, how can he stop the thief army? Huang Degong is an example, if the thief army comes to attack tomorrow, won't he also end up with Huang Degong?
"How's that okay?" Sun Yingyuan suddenly became anxious.
Huang Degong looked at Sun Yingyuan, who was in a hurry, so he sighed and said: "You and I are guest soldiers, here should be the soldiers and horses of Runing Mansion, it is really hateful to say that the soldiers and generals of Runing Mansion are really hateful, when I was defeated by the thieves for the first time, it was because they were the first to flee, so that my flanks were wide open, these days I waited under the city to fight to the death against the thieves, but they only put a few cannons on the city, but did not send a soldier to save it, it is really hateful!"
Now, as far as I can see, we can only hold back the thief army by retreating into the city and defending the city first, and if we continue to fight like this outside the city, sooner or later your troops will be broken by the thief army like me! Without further ado, it would be better for us to retreat into the city as soon as possible. ”
"But defending the city is the most taboo! How could the prefect of Runing agree to retreat into the city so easily? You must know that the guest army is not allowed to enter the city! That's the rule! Can this Fu Governor promise me to retreat into the city? Sun Yingyuan was also very moved after hearing this, but he was a little hesitant.
"When is it going to be? You're still so hesitant! If you don't retreat into the city, will you just sit back and wait for death? The city of Runing Mansion is strong, and the strength of the thief army is not too much, and now the only way to delay it is to retreat to the city for some time, can his surname Fu not let me wait to enter the city? If he refuses, that's fine! This Runing Mansion was originally in charge of guarding the town, what are we doing? It's best if he doesn't agree, if he doesn't, then I'll evacuate this place overnight and let him deal with this thief army by himself! Hum! Huang Degong sneered.
After hearing this, Sun Yingyuan gritted his teeth and said: "What Lord Huang said is also true, this is the only way for now!" So he sent someone into the city to discuss this matter with Governor Liu! ……”
Fu Ruwei, the prefect of Runing, was taken aback when he learned the news that Sun Yingyuan asked to lead his troops to retreat into the city, you must know that the current official and military discipline is very corrupt, and the place where it passes is even more powerful than that of thieves, once these thousands of Sun Yingyuan's official troops enter the city, then the city of Runing Mansion is equivalent to luring wolves into the house and being robbed! So his first thought was to directly refuse Sun Yingyuan's request.
However, Sun Yingyuan's subordinates sent into the city said angrily: "It's not that Lord Fu hasn't seen the fierceness of the thief army, Lord Huang fought desperately for three days, but he was still overtaken by the thief army, could it be that Lord Fu wants to watch me and others follow in the footsteps of Lord Huang's department?" Our Lord Sun said that if Master Fu refuses to allow us to enter the city and defend it, then we will have to evacuate this place overnight! You can't blame me for the consequences! Leave! Saying that, Sun Yingyuan's subordinates hugged their fists and said goodbye, wanting to turn around and go out of the city to return to Sun Yingyuan.
After Fu Ruwei listened, he was immediately frightened, he only had less than 3,000 officers and soldiers in the city of Runing Mansion, and basically never went into battle, these three days just lying on the city wall to watch the thief army storm Huang Degong's camp, there were already people who were scared of their hands and feet, counting on these people to defend the city, I really don't know if they can defend for a few days, after all, Sun Yingyuan has some soldiers under his command who are from the Beijing camp, and the equipment is good, and in the past two years, he has not fought with the fifth battalion of Gezuo, he is a soldier who has seen blood, and he can be regarded as an elite soldier in the official army. Now that Huang Degong's department has been wiped out with his own eyes, once Sun Yingyuan leads his troops to withdraw, can he hold this Runing Mansion? Once Runing Mansion is lost, won't his net worth and life be over? Even if he doesn't die, the current emperor can't spare him, and there are still King Chong and King Heyang in the city, won't they be finished when the thief army invades the city?
So he didn't dare to lose Runing Mansion, and he couldn't afford to lose it, although these martial artists are now becoming more and more unruly to them, and now they dare to threaten him, the prefect, but now he really needs Sun Yingyuan to help him guard Runing Mansion, so he has to put away his shelves and ask him for help, so he hurriedly beckoned to this Sun Yingyuan's subordinates, pinched his nose and nodded and promised to let Sun Yingyuan lead his troops into the city and defend the city.
That night, Sun Yingyuan quietly led the troops to abandon the camp outside the city, and drove into the city of Runing Mansion overnight, and there were thousands of proud soldiers in the city, and the people in the city were unlucky.
And Xiao Tianjian learned the news that Sun Yingyuan led his troops to withdraw into the city overnight, and when he ordered Liu Yaoben to lead his troops to attack Sun Yingyuan's camp at night, Liu Yaoben got the order, and led his troops out of the camp overnight and killed at the west gate of Runing Mansion.
Thousands of people into the city, not a moment and a half can enter the city, Sun Yingyuan's army still has a lot of heavy mules and horses and the like, plus the night hurriedly entered the city, the dispatch is endless, when entering the city is chaotic, many cars and horses are blocked at the city gate, can not enter and can not get out, a large number of officers and soldiers want to enter the city as soon as possible, but even more squeezed forward, the result is more serious at the city gate of the degree of chaos.
Although Liu Yaoben led his troops to set off relatively late, he still caught up with the tail of the last batch of officers and soldiers, and rushed to kill, killing the soldiers and horses behind the official army and the palace suddenly scattered and fled, if it were not for Sun Yingyuan's timely order to close the door, Liu Yaoben would not dare to lead his troops into the city overnight.
But in this way, Sun Yingyuan's batch of supplies was not pulled into the city in time, and was thrown outside the city with hundreds of officers and soldiers behind the palace, and became Liu Yaoben's trophies.
