Chapter 325: Xu Rong's Design to Exterminate Thieves (1)
After a cup of tea, a person dressed as a scholar was brought to Dong Zhuo's tent, only to see that this person was wearing a Confucian shirt, with an elegant face, a square scarf on his head, a long sword under his waist, a ruddy complexion, and a smile on the corner of his mouth.
"Mr. Cheng, please take a seat, there are some things I want to talk to you about in detail," Dong Zhuoyi stretched out his hand and said.
The scholar just nodded lightly, slowly sat down under Dong Zhuo, and said lightly, "I don't know if the general has anything else he wants to discuss with him?" ”。
"Well~~~ That's the case," Dong Zhuo said with some embarrassment, "I received the news that Sun Jian has gone out with the pioneer officer Zhou Shen, this ~~~~."
"Hehe~~ It turns out that this is the case, General Dong doesn't need to panic, my family leader has his own way to deal with it" The scholar responded unhurriedly.
Seeing this, Dong Zhuo was convinced, "Mr. Cheng is really good at cultivation, and he can calm down at such a critical juncture, Dong Zhuo, I am ashamed of myself."
"General Dong is polite, since this is the case, then I will retire first" The scholar stood up and bowed, turned around and walked out of the big tent.
"This Cheng Gongying is an extraordinary person~~~ Does the general want to accept him under the account?" Jia Xu walked out of the back tent at this time, looked at Cheng Gongying's distant back and said softly.
Dong Zhuo was even more appreciative: "Is it possible for Wenhe to see this?" ”。
"I'm afraid it's difficult," Jia Xu shook his head and sighed.
"Oh? Why is that? ”。
Jia Xu said with a solemn face, "The lord may not know this Cheng Gongying's life experience, I will tell you, the lord will know as soon as he hears it" After that, he sat down and continued, "This Cheng Gongying is a native of Jincheng, he lost his father since he was a child, and his mother took him to death when he was six years old, and then he lived alone for four years ~~~."
Dong Zhuo nodded and responded, "In this era of war and chaos, he was born in the land of Xiliang, which shows the hardships of this person, and then what?" ”。
"After that, he met ~~ Han Sui, who was an official in Jincheng, heard that Gongying designed to steal a family heirloom from him, Han Sui searched for three whole days before he found Cheng Gongying, who was about to starve to death, in the broken temple outside the city, but for some reason, Han Sui did not kill him, but instead rescued him, so that he could take care of him, until he recovered, ordered someone to send him out of the house, and never even said a word to him.
"Hahahaha~~ This Han Yue is really a character, and he can use such a trick to capture and indulge, and he is amazing~~~ I'm ashamed~~~Hahahaha~~~" Dong Zhuo laughed when he heard it.
Jia Xu sighed deeply, "Does the lord know, at that time, Han Sui's family heirloom had been destroyed by Cheng Gongying~~~~~."
"What!!" Dong Zhuo was shocked when he heard this, this is not as simple as wanting to capture him.
Jia Xu ignored Dong Zhuo's reaction and continued, "Han Sui's family heirloom is a soft armor, which is a personal thing, but Cheng Gongying used it to wrap the stone to sleep, and it was ground out of a hole."
"How can you know the purpose of this inner armor at a young age, but since it is a treasure armor, it is nothing more than grinding out of the hole, I don't think Han Yue cares too much."
"I don't know this, there is only one thing I can think of~~~ is this Han Sui's terrifying ability to recognize people, Cheng Gongying stole armor and hid at the age of ten, if he didn't value this person's potential, he would never be so eager to capture and indulge."
"But with Cheng Gongying's intelligence, he should have thought of this, why is he still so desperate for Han Yue?" Dong Zhuo asked puzzled.
"Because, Han Sui is the first person who is really good to him, no matter what the reason, Cheng Gongying will also be loyal to him with death, and the lord wants to subdue him~~~ Unless Han Sui dies, ~~ it will never be possible."
Dong Zhuo was silent for a long time, and sighed, "It seems that I have no relationship with him, but as long as Wenhe is by my side, I will be satisfied."
Jia Xu smiled slightly, turned around and said, "Lord, have you forgotten that you still have a general who is guarding the city for you?" ”。
"Yes, yes," Dong Zhuo said happily, "Wen He finally used tricks to deceive the good general, how can I forget~~~ I just don't know how he is now~~~."
The person he said was standing at the head of Jincheng at this time, staring at the thieves outside the city with a solemn face, different from the nervous expression of a deputy general, Xu Rong's disdain was enough to show his contempt for these anti-thieves.
"Just thieves also dare to attack the city, I really don't know the height of the sky, the generals will listen to the order, today I will break the thieves, prepare horses for me" said a voice and ordered to turn over and go down to the city.
"General, General" saw a deputy general hurriedly following behind him and shouted, "General and slow~~ The thief is strong, the general can't move lightly, just hold the city pass, no need to risk out of the city."
Xu Rong glanced at the deputy general and said proudly, "The thieves are coming, their morale is strong, if they only know how to defend the city, they will be more arrogant than the thieves, you will follow me to the front of the battle to fight, and when their sharp spirit is extinguished, it is only in the evening to break the enemy."
"But the general~~~ has a limited number of soldiers in the city, what if the thieves take the opportunity to attack the city?"
"Hahaha~~~ Chen Yi, let me ask you, if you first arrived in the city and saw someone open the city gate and go out of the city to fight, what would you do?"
This person was originally the former Jincheng Taishou, but Dong Zhuo's letter clearly ordered him to assist Xu Rong, although he was unwilling, but he had to comply, but he had never been convinced of Xu Rong, this time the thieves were in turmoil, most of the territory in Liangzhou was invaded, he had already heard of it, but Xu Rong wanted to go out of the city to face the battle, how not to make him angry in his heart.
At that moment, he replied unkindly, "What else, that is, to attack the city~~ It is a good thing that someone will meet the battle, and it will save time and effort to break through the city gate, of course I am willing to fight."
"That's it, that's what most people think, and I don't think the thief commander is no exception."
"So the general is going to plan and go out of the city to fight? Isn't this just in the hands of a thief, this is a strategy, why use it knowingly."
"Hehehehe~~~ How do you understand the truth, just fight with me, and you will understand the rest later, pass my general order, only take my troops 3,000 men, and the rest of the soldiers will stay in the city."
At this time, on the hillside outside the city, the thief vanguard rode a horse and stood, the border chapter made a mess and gathered more than 50,000 people, the strength was strong, successively broke through a number of cities, the territory of Xiliang was swept away, as long as the city was captured, Liangzhou fell into the hands of the thieves, the road to Guanzhong was naturally smooth, so the border chapter was bound to win this battle, and sent the vanguard to carry 15,000 men and horses, to give Jincheng Taishou a dismount.
When they came to the front of Jincheng, they saw that although the city was small, it was extremely strict, and it was difficult to forcibly occupy it by force because of the mountains and rivers.
When the thief heard this, he laughed curiously and said, "I don't want to scold him, but he came to provoke me first and give me a whole army, I want to see what kind of three-headed and six-armed figure this Jincheng Taishou is?" “。
When the thieves came to the front of the city, they saw Xu Rong waiting for him, the soldiers behind him had serious faces, the military appearance was neat, and there was a big Xu character on the banner.
"Who is this person and who has heard of it?".
"General, I heard that it seems to be called Xu Rong, not long after he arrived, he was also unlucky, he just met us~~~ I think it must be an official position redeemed by some spare money in the family, but I didn't expect it to be a fool, I want to make meritorious service and want to go crazy, I actually let the city not guard, and came out to die~~~Hahaha~~~ General~~ I don't think I need to be polite to them, I just rushed up and took the city to finish!!".
"Hmph, you know a fart, look at the military appearance on the other side can be trained by ordinary people, although this person is nameless, but he is not incompetent, it is better to be cautious."
"The general is wise~~ but I think he is only a few thousand men and horses, we have an army of 15,000, why be afraid of him, the last general is willing to bring a team of men and horses to fight with him, and he will bring his head to see the general."
The pioneer officer smiled slightly and said, "That's good~~~ You will bring some people over to fight him, I want to see what the hell he wants to do."
"The last will be ordered!" The lieutenant general excitedly picked up five thousand men and horses and rushed over, in his opinion, this city guard is either a waste or an idiot, and he has already regarded this credit as a bag in his heart.
"Whoever is on the other side, the common name is the surname!" When he came closer, the deputy general stepped forward and pointed at Xu Rong and shouted.
At this time, Chen Yi saw that the thieves were killing heavily, and he was very nervous, and secretly said that he must not rush up directly, otherwise Hugh said that he would probably lose this golden city immediately, and at this time, seeing that the thieves would call for battle, he immediately said to Xu Rong, "General, let's go back to the city after a while, you see that there is still a large army over there, if we rush up, we will be finished."
"Don't be afraid, look at me" Xu Rong didn't have a trace of waves on his face, he just stepped forward lightly and responded, "The other side is the leader of the thieves?" Know where this is! Dare to come to die, dismount early and surrender, spare your life, if not, kill them all, and leave no one behind."
Behind him, Chen Yi was frightened into a cold sweat when he heard this, and scolded in his heart, "This waste, there is not enough success and more than failure, and he even dares to provoke the enemy, isn't it crazy~~~."
The thief on the opposite side was even more furious, and shouted, "Your grandfather, I am Wu Ming, a young general in Longxi, I don't know how bad a guy dares to go out of the city to die, and he also speaks wildly, see if I don't cut off your head and drink~~ Hugh go to see the knife!! Stop, the long knife in his hand swung up, and he immediately stepped forward to fight with Xu Rong.
"Hahahaha~~~ It turned out to be an unknown young general, I said why haven't I heard of it, I will take your sacrifice flag today" Xu Rong faced him head-on with a steel gun.
The two of them fought, more than 20 rounds passed in a blink of an eye, and the thief didn't expect that the person he didn't care about would have such martial arts, but he didn't expect it, but he smiled in his heart and said secretly, "That's the end of it" Thinking of this, his subordinates suddenly exerted their strength, and the long knife danced whirringly, forcing Xu Rong to be in a hurry for a while, leaving only the power to parry.
Chen Yi behind him was taken aback when he saw this, he didn't expect the thief to be so brave, it seems that this Xu Rong is not his opponent, his heart is horizontal, he grabbed it in his hand, and he was about to rush up to help as soon as he gritted his teeth, if Xu Rong was defeated, he would never be able to defend the city, in this case, it would be better to die on the battlefield and get a good reputation.
At this moment, there was a sudden change on the field, and just as his legs were about to rush up, Xu Rong suddenly shook a shot, shouted loudly, turned around and fled, shouting "Retreat~~~" while escaping.
