Chapter 81: The Siege of Suzhou (14)

Unlike history, Huainan sent troops to Suzhou without the slightest hesitation at the first time of the Wuyongdu Rebellion, and after the news reached Qian Biao, it caused huge pressure on Qian Biao. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Historically, because Huainan did not send troops, Qian Biao sent his son Qian Chuanhui to accompany Gu Quanwu to Hangzhou to ask Yang Xingmi for help under the persuasion of Gu Quanwu.

And Yang Xingmi considered that if Hangzhou fell, it would only strengthen Tian Yan's power, out of fear of Tian Yan, and Qian Bi had helped Yang Xingmi when he fought against Sun Ru, so Yang Xingmi finally decided to marry his daughter to Qian Chuanhui and sent someone to summon Tian Yan back to Xuanzhou.

But this time it was different, Huainan sent troops early, making it clear that he wanted to take advantage of the fire to rob, even Gu Quanwu didn't say anything about asking Yang Xingmi for help now.

On the main seat, Qian Biao said with a tired face: "Everyone will talk about the current situation, right?" ”

After everyone was silent for a while, the staff cautiously proposed, "Now that the situation is critical, why don't you surrender to Yuezhou?" At least the king has arrived in Yuezhou, and the states of eastern Zhejiang are still the king's territory, and when he arrives there, the king will accumulate strength and find a way to counterattack in the future! ”

In the past few days, taking advantage of the arrival of reinforcements from all over the country, Qian Biao attacked the rebels who had defeated Wuyongdu many times inside and outside, and now he has seized half of the territory of the outer city, but it is a little difficult to completely drive the Wuyongdu rebels out of the city.

To add insult to injury, Huzhou Assassin Shi Gao Yan sent his son Gao Wei to lead 8,000 troops to aid Hangzhou, but the ambush soldiers who met Xu Xuan in Lingyin Mountain were all wiped out, and even Gao Wei himself was killed in battle.

And Xuanzhou Tian Yan even sent people to ask Qian Biao to surrender to Yuezhou.

Everyone present knew that the arrival of the Xuanzhou army might be in the next few days, so the current situation was indeed very dangerous.

Tian Yan is not comparable to Xu Juan and Xu Zaisi, his soldiers are well fed, and in June this year, he even defeated the tens of thousands of troops of Feng Hongduo, the assassin of Shengzhou, in a battle, such a combat power, once it arrives in Hangzhou, it is difficult to say whether Hangzhou can hold on at that time.

Therefore, the opinions put forward by the staff at this time are also the thoughts of most people present: "Hangzhou is dangerous here, I heard that Yuezhou is also a little unstable now, Wang, you should go to Yuezhou first!" At least the safety of the east of Yuezhou can be guaranteed! ”

This idea seems reasonable, but in fact it is not a good idea, because it is related to the problem of morale, as long as Qian Biao leaves Hangzhou City, the morale of the soldiers in Hangzhou City will definitely be greatly reduced, and it will not be long before it will really fall.

Moreover, Qian Biao ruled the two Zhejiang provinces for a short time, many states and counties were only forced to obey him because of Qian Biao's prestige, once Qian Biao showed his defeat and gave up Hangzhou to surrender Yuezhou, those states and counties who were watching were afraid that they would no longer obey him Qian Biao, and then it would be a real big deal.

Therefore, Qian Biao frowned when he listened to the advice of his staff, and Gu Quanwu on the side also stood up and said sharply: "Hugh is talking nonsense!" If the king goes to Yuezhou, then the two Zhejiang are really not owned by the king! ”

"The king, the last general heard that in March this year, Zhu Quanzhong sent troops to surround Jinyang, the seat of Li Keyong, the king of Jin, and besieged it day and night, making the city miserable. At that time, Li Keyong's subordinate general Li Cunxin and others persuaded him to retire from Yunzhou, but Li Keyong's wife Liu resolutely opposed it, thinking that going to Yunzhou was a dead end, and it was better to stick to Jinyang. King Jin finally decided to stick to Jinyang, and this turned the corner! ”

"Now that the situation is similar to that faced by King Jin at that time, isn't the insight of all of you present as good as that of a woman?"

Du Jianwei, the commander of Wu'an, also said: "Yes, although Yuezhou is a little unstable now, it is because Zhang Hong, the commander of Yuezhou, used to have a close relationship with Xu Xuan, and he was worried that the king would be angry with him. As long as the king finds a way to appease this person, Yuezhou will definitely be able to settle down again. ”

Qian Biao felt the same way, and said again and again, "Yes, Hangzhou is the starting place of Lonely, and this is the foundation of Lonely." Therefore, Lone must stay in Hangzhou and persist in resisting! ”

He looked around at the generals and said slowly: "I believe that as long as everyone here works together, whether it is the traitors of Xu Juan and Xu Zaisi, or the Xuanzhou army of Tian Yan, they will all end up bleeding under the city of Hangzhou!" Would you like to stay in Hangzhou with Lonely? ”

"The last general is willing to follow the king, and he will never give up!" The generals responded in unison, and the sound shook the sky.

Qian Biao nodded with satisfaction, summoned Tian Yan's messenger and said: "When you go back and bring a message to Tian Yan, you will say, 'It is common for there to be rebellions in the army, and you Tian Yan is also a festival envoy, and there are many generals under him. Now help the traitor, and know that your subordinates will betray you in the future? As for the rest, you tell him that Hangzhou is a lonely place to start, and it is impossible to give it to him! If he wants to fight, then he will fight! ”

After sending the messenger, Qian Di's eyes turned to Gu Quanwu again: "Quanwu, when the Lone King raised an army to attack Dong Chang, he had to face Dong Chang's army in the east, and he had to face the large-scale attack of the Huainan army in the north, the situation was critical. ”

"Now that my two Zhejiang are at a critical moment again, you go to see Zhang Hong with Lone's letter, so that you can appease this person and lead the Yuezhou soldiers to aid Hangzhou as soon as possible! Whether Lone will live or die in the future, whether the two Zhejiang can turn the crisis into safety, this burden will be handed over to you! ”

Gu Quanwu suddenly felt the weight of the responsibility on his shoulders, immediately knelt on his knees, and replied solemnly: "The last general will repay the king's kindness!" ”

Qian Biao nodded, now that the situation is urgent, what else can he trust besides trusting Gu Quanwu's ability?

Immediately, he did not hesitate to write a sincere letter to Gu Quanwu, and secretly told him that he could use all methods, as long as he could control the Yuezhou army and quickly bring troops to help.

Gu Quanwu naturally understood what he meant, and after saluting with his fists, he left the city overnight and returned to Yuezhou.

Looking at the back of Gu Quanwu's departure, Qian Biao suddenly looked a little depressed, "Then why did Yang Xingmi send troops?" Isn't he afraid of Tian Yu? If Lone is defeated, who else can get cheap in the end except Tian Yan? ”

When the news of Zhou Ben's siege of Suzhou came, Qian Biao couldn't believe it was true.

What he didn't expect was that there was a "little person" who he didn't pay attention to at all at this time and quietly changed all this behind his back, otherwise, Gu Quanwu might have arrived in Guangling at this time, instead of rushing to Yuezhou.

At this time in Guangling, although Yang Xingmi already knew the news that Tian Yan was about to send troops to Hangzhou, the war in Suzhou was going well, and the partial division led by Yang Wu quickly occupied Changshu and Kunshan, which gave him enough confidence to increase his troops for his son.

After receiving the good news, he didn't think much about it, so he sent Xu Wen to Suzhou with 7,000 men as reinforcements, and also obeyed Yang Wu's command.

In this way, Yang Wu had an army of 14,000 men, and even if he needed to leave some people to defend Changshu and other places that he had just captured, he still had about 12,000 men to devote to the siege of Suzhou, and he had a lot to do in the Battle of Suzhou.
