Chapter 377: Young Marshal Zuo's Revenge
Zuo Liangyu and Chen Yongfu chased after the troops for two days, but even Li Zicheng's rear team did not catch up, and it is more likely that they did not dare to catch up, so they returned to Kaifeng with their troops. Also on the same day, Zuo Mengeng also came to Kaifeng Chengwai with 6,000 infantry.
Zuo Mengeng and the others also camped outside the south gate, not far from Huang Desheng's camp. At noon the next day, Zuo Mengeng came back from the city, and his men were already waiting.
"Young marshal," one of his hundred generals reported, "the barracks on the other side are the troops of Qixian County. ”
"Qixian troops" Zuo Mengeng asked suspiciously.
Mr. Bai reminded: "It's the one who caught us, killed a lot of us, and injured your leg." ”
"Oh. Qi County, Li Yan "Zuo Mengeng finally remembered. Speaking directly about Qixian, he may not be able to remember, but when he said that he was arrested and injured, he immediately remembered it. It was a shame for him, not a defeat, but a capture, and he was wounded.
Mr. Bai nodded and said: "Yes, yes, I saw the grandson who took care of me at the beginning, that kid was ruthless, he poked with a spear without blinking his eyes, and killed three brothers in front of my eyes." ”
Zuo Mengeng frowned and thought for a while, and ordered: "Take your people and follow me"
"Young marshal, there are too few people," Mr. Bai persuaded: "They have three or four thousand people."
"Don't talk nonsense, go gather people," Zuo Mengeng scolded impatiently.
In fact, he wanted to go and see that the guy who injured him in the first place was not there, and the revenge of other people was not mentioned for the time being, but his own revenge was to be avenged. If that Li Yan is also there, it would be the best. At the same time, he also has some scruples, after all, it is a friendly army now, and without his Lao Tzu's approval, it will bring some trouble if it fights.
Bai Zong didn't dare to say anything more, and immediately went to gather his men. After a while, Zuo Mengeng led his subordinates out of the camp and went to Huang Desheng.
Naturally, they could not enter the barracks, and they were stopped outside the camp gates.
"Is there anything wrong with you, general," asked the guard at the camp gate.
Zuo Mengeng didn't speak, and his personal soldiers spoke: "We are Zuo Dashuai's subordinates, and we came to find you General Li on the orders of Zuo Dashuai." ”
"We, General Li, are not here," the guard replied, "and if anything happens to you, I can go and inform our General Huang." ”
Zuo Mengeng didn't know any General Huang, he was a little impatient, and looked at the camp casually. This look really made him see a person, this is this person, it was this person who led people to shoot crossbow arrows at him at the beginning, and he was the one who led people to carry him in front of Li Yan at the beginning. By the way, he also lost a clairvoyant mirror to teach his father a lesson. It wasn't until half a year ago that people bought two more from the Hongyi people in Haojing Ao.
At this time, Zhou He was patrolling everywhere with his own soldiers, and he saw that there were many officers and soldiers outside the camp gate, so he took his own soldiers over to take a look.
Zuo Mengeng greeted his own soldiers, and left quickly with his men.
"Well, why are you leaving?" the guard said confusedly.
After a while, Zhou He came over and asked, "What happened just now?"
"Mr. Qianqian, a group of people came just now, saying that they were the generals of Zuo Dashuai, and they were looking for something to do with our Dashuai. But when I said that the big man was not there, they left directly. "Guard 1510's return.
Zhou He frowned and looked at the soldiers who had left, and immediately thought of something. He instructed his soldiers: "Go and inform the troops, be ready, and fight at any time"
After that, he quickly went to the main account and went to report to Huang Desheng. As soon as he heard that it was from Zuo Liangyu, he felt that there might be trouble, after all, they had beaten Zuo Mengeng miserably.
After listening to Zhou He's report, Huang Desheng also felt that something would go wrong, so he immediately put the whole army into a state of combat readiness and was ready to fight at any time. If it was Shan Zuo Liangyu's troops, he knew that with only 6,000 foot soldiers and 3,000 cavalry, he would still be able to deal with it. But if Chen Yongfu also took advantage of the fire to rob, his troops would be in danger.
He immediately instructed his own soldiers: "Now go and report to General Li Mou immediately, and please convey it to the marshal, and ask the marshal to decide." ”
"Obey" the soldier agreed, and immediately ran to lead the horse. Zuo Liangyu's camp was less than two miles away from them, and time was pressing, so he had to report the news as soon as possible.
Sure enough, half an hour later, Zuo Mengeng came over with all the 6,000 foot soldiers and surrounded Huang Desheng's camp. At the same time, he also sent someone to inform Zuo Liangyu in the city, no matter what Zuo Liangyu's attitude was, he would break the corpses of the people who injured him into pieces
At this time, the defenders at the head of the city also reported to Chen Yongfu. Chen Yongfu came to the city with great interest and watched the dragon and tiger fight. He wants to take a look at the situation first, Zuo Liangyu, who has nearly 10,000 horses, doesn't know if he is the opponent of Li Yan's 3,000 people.
Zuo Mengeng brought someone over, and saw that this side was ready. The soldiers had already assembled throughout the camp and had placed a number of cannons. So he had to ask the troops to surround the camp and send people to shout.
"The people inside listen" Zuo Mengeng's subordinates shouted loudly: "You have been surrounded by us, if you want to live, surrender quickly, our commander has clear grievances, only look for the thieves who attacked us back then, and no one else asks"
Huang Desheng looked at the city and found that there were many more defenders on the city, and he was more worried in his heart. Although they are nearly three miles away from the city, the artillery on the high platform of the Kaifeng city wall can still hit them, although the officers and soldiers did not have flowering shells, but the solid bullets on their morale are not to be underestimated.
"Within two quarters of an hour, all of you will come out and surrender, otherwise the war will be together, and the sword and the eyes will be without eyes, and you must think about it carefully, don't make mistakes" Zuo Menggeng's subordinates continued to shout loudly.
Huang Desheng and Zhou He ignored Zuo Mengeng. Zuo Mengeng only has 6,000 foot soldiers, and he only has a few small cannons of one or two inches in his hands, so he is not an opponent at all. What they are worried about now is Chen Yongfu on the city wall of Kaifeng.
"What should I do" Zhou He asked: "If Chen Yongfu also joins, I don't know how long we can hold out." ”
Huang Desheng looked at the high platform on the city wall and said, "There are only three cannons at most that can hit it, and it should be no problem to hold on for an hour." At that time, General Li Mu should also bring people. ”
"Let's drag back as much as possible, as long as Zuo Liangyu doesn't attack, we won't fight back." Zhou He proposed: "If it can be delayed for a while, if we don't fight here, it is estimated that Chen Yongfu will not dare to move." ”
Huang Desheng nodded and said, "Well, let's do this first." If Zuo Mengeng dares to attack, then he must be killed and injured to the greatest extent, and he will be defeated quickly to deter Chen Yongfu. ”
The two discussed it properly, and went to their respective posts, waiting for Zuo Mengeng's attack.
Time passed without stopping, and two quarters of an hour had passed, but Zuo Mengeng still did not attack. Because Zuo Liangyu hadn't heard the news yet, and the cavalry hadn't driven over, he didn't know what his father meant, so he had to wait and see.
Chen De was impatient waiting on the city wall, and he whispered to his own soldiers: "Go, throw two cannons down and add fire to them." ”
