Chapter 67: Black Clouds Want to Overwhelm the City
When the sun rose the next day, the fire that had been lit in Tielinyi was completely extinguished, and not even a trace of smoke and dust was raised. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
But at this time, Wei Wuji, who had only been asleep for a few hours and got up, couldn't feel a trace of relief.
His worries now are no less than the original ambush of Chen Jun, and his current situation is even worse.
What's going on outside Tierim-eup? There were nearly 4,000 Qin people, which was much stronger than the strength of the Wei army in Wei Wuji's hands.
If that fire had reminded them of their plans, they would have disrupted their previous plans.
Then, Gu Mu's confession will also be useless, and everything will have to be started all over again.
Now, Wei Wuji could only hope that the distress messenger sent out overnight last night would bring the news to the nearby Wei army earlier.
Now, the only people who can send troops to rescue Wei Wuji are the Wei army of the first division stationed in Xianghe County, and the county soldiers of Xiping County, Hanoi County.
But Wei Wuji knew that even if the two sides immediately made reinforcements after the distress letter was delivered, he would have to wait until the afternoon of the next day.
But what made Wei Wuji breathe a sigh of relief was that the grain and grass from the Wei army's camp would only arrive on the third day.
In this way, even if it is impossible to exterminate the Qin people, it should not be a problem to protect the grain and grass.
Just as Wei Wuji was thinking, Zheng Dali, who hadn't slept all night, also returned to the lobby.
"Childe, according to your wishes, you have extinguished all the sparks in the inn!" Zheng Dali saluted.
"Hmm!" Wei Wuji nodded.
"Wang Xiu, have they come back?" Wei Wuji's voice was a little hoarse.
Seeing his master's situation, Zheng Dali looked at Wei Wuji with some concern before he said, "Not yet!" ”
Wei Wuji stopped talking, and the melancholy between his eyebrows became a little heavier.
Wang Xiu took a thousand people, and since he left Tielinyi yesterday, he hasn't come back yet, and Wei Wuji has to worry.
Originally, the troops in his hands were stretched, if something happened to Wang Xiu outside, Wei Wuji would really have to run away by himself, and his life would be at stake!
Wei Wuji sighed, and said to Zheng Dali, "You haven't slept all night, go and rest!" ”
Seeing that Wei Wuji was worried about the war, Zheng Dali was inconvenient to disturb Wei Wuji, so he bowed and retreated.
It was originally a good situation, how could Wei Wuji have imagined that it would become so fast.
I hope I'm thinking too much! Wei Wuji comforted himself in his heart.
Now, Wei Wuji didn't dare to act rashly, everything was caused by insufficient troops.
He could only wait for Wang Xiu's men and horses to come back before he could make a deployment.
Otherwise, with the thousands of people he has in his hands now, he doesn't dare to go out at all, otherwise he will be attacked by someone, and he will really be defeated.
Wang Xiu didn't come back, Wei Wuji could drink three bowls of rice porridge on weekdays, and he drank one bowl less, even if Huan'er fed him, he couldn't drink it.
……
After a long time, Wei Wuji suddenly heard movement outside, and he was overjoyed, thinking that Wang Xiu should have returned.
When he rushed out to the door, he found that it was Liu Xuanba who broke in.
After Liu Xuanba walked into the courtyard, he saw Wei Wuji standing at the threshold of the lobby.
Liu Xuanba knelt directly on the ground, and after bowing down, he said in a trembling voice, "Childe, did your subordinates cause trouble for you!" ”
Liu Xuanba also just learned from Zheng Dali, saying that Gongzi was furious about the fire he set for him.
Do you think Liu Xuanba can not be afraid? Now his label of ineffective handling is even heavier.
Seeing that Liu Xuanba directly admitted his mistake, the little resentment that Wei Wuji had in his heart also disappeared.
Liu Xuanba was also an unintentional mistake, and besides, if it is not certain now, the Qin people will definitely find out.
Wei Wuji went down the stairs, walked in front of Liu Xuanba, and helped him to say, "Hurry up, I don't blame you for this!" ”
Liu Xuanba was even more frightened in his heart, don't blame me? In other words, I did make mistakes, but I just don't blame them.
With Wei Wuji's support, Liu Xuanba also had to get up.
"Childe ......"
Liu Xuanba wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Wei Wuji, "Don't talk nonsense, you better hurry up and preside over the defense of the entire Tielinyi, and stop acting recklessly." ”
Seeing Wei Wuji looking at him fixedly, Liu Xuanba lowered his head and said, "Subordinates obey orders!" ”
At this point, Liu Xuanba can only try his best to remedy his "mistakes".
Just then, footsteps were heard outside the courtyard again.
When Liu Xuanba happened to retreat to the gate of the courtyard, he happened to meet someone who came.
"Wang joins the army ......", Liu Xuanba was surprised, wasn't he sent out on an errand?
Someone is doing business, Wang Xiu, looking at his strong spirit, he shouldn't have slept well last night.
Seeing Liu Xuanba greeting him, Wang Xiu also squeezed out a smile and said to Liu Xuan, "Lord Liu is early!" ”
Liu Xuanba sighed, and then said to Wang Xiu, "Wang joins the army, and the son is sulking inside!" You've got to watch when you go in! ”
"Thank you Brother Xuanba for reminding me!" Wang Xiu hugged his fists.
"You go in! I've got to run errands, too! Liu Xuanba smiled bitterly. It's all shit under my ass, and I'm worried about others!
After Liu Xuanba left, Wang Xiu tidied up his armor and walked in stride.
Seeing that Wei Wuji was in the courtyard, Wang Xiu hurriedly bowed down and said, "My subordinates meet my son!" ”
Wei Wuji turned around before he said to Wang Xiu, "Get up!" ”
So Wang Xiu got up from the ground.
Wei Wuji was relieved to see Wang Xiu's fairly neat armor, it seemed that nothing had happened.
Wei Wuji asked, "Why did you come back?" Didn't I let you make your rounds of places? ”
Wang Xiu replied, "Son, something is wrong!" ”
Groov! Wei Wuji's little heart skipped a beat, could it be that what he was afraid of had come?
I only heard Wang Xiu say, "Childe, my subordinates inspected for a day yesterday, and there was nothing abnormal in the entire surrounding villages of Tielinyi. ”
"But just this morning, the scouts sent by his subordinates found that an army of more than 1,000 people appeared more than 30 miles north of Tielinyi, and it continued to increase."
After Wang Xiu said this, Wei Wuji understood that it must be the Qin people who discovered the abnormality of Tielinyi and began to make large-scale adjustments.
Wang Xiu continued, "Later, after the detective arrived, I found that those people had a Qin accent. The subordinates were not very sure, so they had to lead the army to retreat and discuss with the son a perfect plan. ”
Wei Wuji said secretly, sure enough, this Qin person's efficiency is really fast.
But Wang Xiu asked with a surprised face, "Childe, how can there be Qin people here?" ”
"Alas!" Wei Wuji sighed.
If he hadn't caught Gu Mu first, I'm afraid that the large Qin army that appeared three days later would have shocked him even more.
Then, he told Wang Xiu everything that happened last night, including the fire that Liu Xuanba set out.
After listening to Wei Wuji's explanation, Wang Xiucai said heavily, "I see! ”
Wei Wuji also sighed, "If you attack now, I'm afraid it will be difficult to defeat the Qin people individually." ”
Wang Xiu also said helplessly, "The Qin people's forces are our two parts, even if the troops are scattered, I'm afraid we will only destroy two or three, and the remaining Qin people will find out." ”
Wei Wuji forced his confidence and said, "Don't worry, I've already sent a flying horse to ask for help, if it's fast, it should be able to arrive tomorrow." ”
Hearing Wei Wuji say this, Wang Xiu breathed a sigh of relief. If reinforcements arrive, then they can slowly encircle and suppress the Qin people.
Suddenly, Wang Xiu seemed to think of something, and suddenly changed color and said, "No! ”
"What's wrong?" Wei Wuji asked.
Wang Xiu said anxiously, "Childe, if the Qin people knew that they had been discovered, they would just change places, why should they start assembling now." ”
Wei Wuji's face also changed greatly, yes! Why?
Seeing that Wang Xiu's face was even more ugly than before, Wei Wuji knew that it was not a good thing!
"Wang Xiu, tell me your guess!" Wei Wuji held his forehead, and said weakly.
After Wang Xiu considered it, he said cautiously, "Qin people, gather the army in advance, it seems that there is a big move!" ”
Seeing that Wei Wuji was silent, Wang Xiu had to say again, "The Qin people are like this, they must be ......."
Just as Wang Xiu was about to say his judgment, a guard stumbled in and shouted, "Childe, it's not good, the Qin army has appeared in the distance and is approaching us." ”
Wei Wuji and Wang Xiu glanced at each other and smiled bitterly at the same time.
