Chapter 557: The Destruction of 100,000 Horses
Xu Xuan became Ye Hua's subordinate prisoner, he is very painful now, this pain is not that Da Zhou neglected him, in fact, Ye Hua ordered the soldiers to take good care of Master Xu, eat well, live well, and not slack off at all.
Of course, with Ye Hua's temperament, he would not raise pigs in vain, so every day Ye Hua would send a thick stack of news, mainly about the changes in Jinling City, and even some hidden information would not be hidden from Xu Xuan.
And Seo Hyun's pain also comes from this information!
He is very concerned about the success or failure of Jinling, after all, the fate of the Tang Dynasty is tied to two places, one is Jinling and the other is Yangzhou, and he must not be sloppy at all.
Xu Xuan looked forward to Li Hongji being able to show his might and defeat Guo Rong, and also hoped that the people in the city would be able to unite and keep Jinling.
The so-called national disaster shows loyalty, you can't live up to Your Majesty's heavenly grace!
Every time Xu Xuan looked at the information, he tried to find a little bit of brilliance, but every time he read it, he sighed and was furious. It's been even more annoying lately, he can't even read it in one go, and every time he sees a little bit, he jumps like thunder!
Zhu Lingyun worked tirelessly and went south from Jiangzhou to rescue, Xu Xuan was overjoyed, but looking down further, he blew up, did not let the soldiers enter the city, and forced Zhu Lingyun to attack Zhongshan and fight hard with Zhou Bing.
What are you kidding, the people of the Great Zhou are fierce, and Ye Hua is training troops to fight, all of them are top-notch.
Zhu Lingyun was on an expedition and was exhausted, fighting with Ye Hua at this time, isn't this a brain disease?
But that's what the people in the city did!
Are they confused?
Maybe some people are confused, but some people do it on purpose!
Just below all kinds of information, there is also a handwritten letter from Feng Yanji to Ye Hua.
Feng Xianggong told Ye Hua in the letter that they had already kidnapped Chen Qiao and were speeding up their pace, and they would soon be able to control the entire Jiangning. As for Zhu Lingyun, they have already asked the people below to exchange the military rations for moldy and rotten grain, and the weapons and armor are also selected from rags.
Please rest assured, Zhu Lingyun has no chance to use the food and weapons in the city to hurt a single hair of the Great Zhou people!
In the end, he also said that he would provide information in a timely manner, and if there was anything he wanted him to do, he would do his best, please rest assured that Hou Ye would ......
"Shameless!"
Xu Xuan forcibly endured vomiting, and after reading the letter, he just wanted to ask, is there still a word for shame in this world?
Feng Yanji, you are a veteran of the Three Dynasties of the Southern Tang Dynasty, your glory and wealth, and Xuanhe's status are all given by the Li family, do you repay the Li family like this?
The rewards of these decades, let alone to one person, even if it is given to a dog, it can still wag its tail!
It's really rare to betray the master, and there is no burden at all, it's so rare!
Seo Hyun rushed out of the military tent as if he was crazy.
The soldiers guarding him immediately stopped.
"Master Xu, without Master Hou's order, you are not allowed to go!"
"Get out of the way!" Xu Xuan's eyes were red, and he pushed hard, wanting to rush out, but he was a weak little old man, how could he push away a few young men.
He was held down to death.
With his face on the ground, Xu Xuan cried loudly, snot and tears flowed out together, his hands kept scratching the ground, his fingers were worn out, and the ground was dotted with blood!
Xu Xuan's most distressed thing now is the 100,000 soldiers, you are loyal, in order to rescue Jinling, but you were killed by villains, the common people often say, good people don't live long, and the scourge will last for thousands of years!
In Jinling City, up and down, it is a scourge.
Even Chen Qiao is no exception!
As the prime minister, he is immoral and incompetent, and he doesn't even have a little decision, so he is held hostage by a few old things, do you still have face?
Xu Xuan was so angry and anxious that his eyes went dark and he fainted.
When he woke up again and found that the light was dim, he was lying on the bed, the injury on his hand had been treated, there was still an empty bowl next to the bed, he struggled to sit up, and found that Ye Hua and Han Xizai were standing side by side at the door, looking out.
Hearing the movement, the two of them smiled and turned their heads.
"Master Xu, you are erudite and talented, do you know what the Han army sang when you were embattled in Jiuli Mountain?"
Xu Xuan didn't know why, but obviously Ye Hua saved him, and he was treating his injuries and feeding medicine, so it was not good not to answer, Xu Xuan was slightly stunned, and then said in a hoarse voice: "In the late autumn of September, the four wild fields are frosty, the sky is high and the water is dry, and the geese are sad." The most bitter frontier wandered day and night, cloaked in stubbornness and stubbornness to isolate Shagang. After being away from home for ten years, his parents parted ways, and his wife He Kanxi lived alone in a lonely room. Although there is a surplus of fields to guard, the neighbor's wine is ripe and tasted. The white hair leaned against the door and looked through the autumn water, and the childish remembered tears and broke his liver and intestines. Huma hiss and still knows how to love the land, and he would rather forget his hometown for a long time. Once the soldiers are killed by the blade, the flesh and bones are mud and decay. The soul is long and vague, and the ambition is absurd. At this time, the eternal night is to remember and retreat, and disperse Chu Xi as soon as possible to avoid death. I will send you to tell you that you know your fate. The king of Han has the virtue to surrender the army and not kill, and mourns to return to the Xi and let you soar. Don't guard the empty camp, the grain road is extinct, and the feathers and jade are injured every day. ”
Ye Hua stroked his palms and laughed, "I've heard the Qinglou girl sing a few times, but I can't remember it, but Master Xu's memory is good!" ”
Xu Xuan rolled his eyes angrily, how can you compare the old man with the woman in the Qinglou?
He was so angry that he didn't speak, but Ye Hua smiled and said: "Han Zhongcheng, you and Master Xu are both great talents, and the sad songs scattered Chu back then, and they moved the Chu soldiers with their hometown feelings, if the Han army shouted at the Chu soldiers, as long as they lay down their weapons and surrender to the imperial court, they can be granted land and land and enjoy peace, do you say that the Chu soldiers will disperse?" ”
Xu Xuan pursed his lips and sneered, "The cold night is sad, the ambush is on all sides, and the enemy is broken with Chu Ge, how clever!" If you shout something to divide the field, vulgar, too vulgar! ”
Xu Xuan raised his head and smiled proudly, "It can be seen that Ye Hua's realm is too far behind Han Xin and Zhang Liang." It's just that there are no heroes at the time, so that your little vertical man is rampant in the world, compared with the ancient sages, your methods are simply not worth mentioning. ”
Xu Xuan complained a few words about Ye Hua, and it seemed that the whole person was happy, but he didn't be happy for long, and Han Shan hurriedly ran in and reported to Ye Hua.
"Master Qiqi, tonight I will wait until Zhu Lingyun agrees, and let the villagers take turns shouting. beckoned them to hurry home, saying that the court had already divided the land for their families, and if they went back late, they would not be able to get the land. ”
Ye Hua bowed, "How is the effect?" ”
"Almost 2,800 people have escaped from Zhu Lingyun's camp, and we will continue to work hard to get more soldiers over!"
Ye Hua turned his head and smiled at Xu Xuan, "Master Xu, no matter if it's elegant or vulgar, it's good to be useful!" ”
"You!"
Xu Xuan was surprised, and he realized it.
It turned out that Ye Hua was emulating the embattled and wanted to disperse the military heart of the Southern Tang Dynasty!
You're really bad!
Hate Xu Xuan's teeth, but when he thought about it, it seemed that this was a good thing, the big bosses in the city had rebelled, even if these soldiers fought to the death, what could they do?
It's not just a pile of corpses!
Instead of this, it is better to let them go home and cultivate the fields, and the family can live and work in peace and contentment, and it will also save them from creating evil.
Thinking of this, Xu Xuan's face was suddenly full of shame, and he was a little afraid to look at Han Xizai.
At the beginning, Han Xi wrote a letter suggesting that Li Hongji follow the example of the Great Zhou and implement Juntian, but not only did it not pass, but was also alienated...... Now Han Xizai has returned to Da Zhou and has become a celebrity in front of Guo Rong, but what about Datang? The country will not be a country, this is retribution!
Xu Xuan's old tears flowed down, "It's wrong, Your Majesty is wrong, only the common people will be content and happy." Those officials and gentry, they just want more, they are insatiable, they are bottomless! If it doesn't go their way, they will betray the court and find a new master! This is the spirit of the literati! ”
Xu Xuan is like a madman, he has never been so disgusted with his identity as a literati!
Although there is no shortage of admirable characters in Shilin, Bi is rare. Ninety percent of the literati are like those ministers and ministers in the city, ugly, not ordinary ugly......
"Ye Hua, thank you, old man! I can slash those beasts, and I will die without regrets! ”
Seo Hyun pulled his neck and shouted...... At this time, Ye Hua had already walked out of the tent with Han Xi, and the two of them smiled heartily, and now, even Xu Xuan no longer dreamed and could keep Jinling.
He's already facing reality!
Zhu Lingyun continued to supervise the battle, attacked Zhongshan, and tried to repel the Zhou soldiers.
He sent tens of thousands of horses, like ants, to attack the defenders on the mountain, and with the advantage of troops, he would definitely win!
Although Zhu Lingyun's idea is very beautiful, is Yang Ye a vegetarian?
Moreover, after the division of the field, the morale of the Zhou soldiers was high, coupled with a large number of bed crossbows, condescending, intensive shooting, and before they could rush to the eyes of the Zhou soldiers, more than thirty percent of them were killed or wounded.
Zhu Lingyun was unwilling to fail, and sent his most elite people to go immediately, three thousand armor soldiers, and more than half of them were killed and injured in half a day's effort.
I had no choice but to temporarily withdraw my troops. But when it was time to rest at night, outside the barracks, there were shouts everywhere. The old man, the woman, the child, beckoned the soldiers, go home quickly, the court has divided the fields, you can eat enough, don't give your life to the faint king anymore......
Such shouts, one after another, sent people to pursue, the other party immediately fled, and when they withdrew, they followed again, it was like a dog's skin plaster.
A lot of tired soldiers, pricked up their ears to listen, it was like the voice of the old father, it was the lady who greeted me, child, don't cry!
The people who heard the sound ran outside like crazy.
On the first night, more than 2,000 people ran, and on the second night, because of the defeat, the morale was even lower, and they ran 6,000, which directly doubled.
It's really underestimated, Zhu Lingyun's scalp is numb.
"No, you can't fight, you have to go back to Jinling!"
An order was given to the three armies to immediately pull out the camp.
He wanted to run, how could Yang Ye let him go, and chased after him with his buttocks, and the people in charge of attacking the heart also followed closely. Zhu Lingyun fought and retreated, and his men and horses fled faster.
Some people died in battle, and more of them were discouraged and unwilling to fight.
When they withdrew to Jinling City, Zhu Lingyun's men and horses barely had more than 60,000 men, and they lost a small half!
It's not too bad!
As long as you go into the city to repair, there is still a chance, there is still a chance!
"General Zhu, I'm sorry." The defenders in the city said to Zhu Lingyun, who was panting: "There is an order from above, let you camp five miles outside the city!" ”
As soon as these words came out, Zhu Lingyun was stunned, his entire facial features were distorted, and the chasing soldiers of the Great Zhou Dynasty were about to arrive, do you want these tens of thousands of soldiers to die in vain under the city?
