Chapter Seventy-Six: The Siege of Suzhou (9)

Under the west city, a horse galloped over, "Qiyu Gongzi, Zhu Dutou sent someone to report that he has completely controlled the North City Gate!" ”

"Good! Give the order, send rockets, and the whole army will attack! Yang Wu was overjoyed and immediately ordered. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info

The siege battle of Ximen also changed from a feint attack to a strong attack, and at the same time, after receiving the rocket, Qin Pei also launched a diversion siege with the siege equipment hidden there in advance.

Outside the north gate, an army of more than 1,000 people quickly drove into the city along the captured city gate, and for a time the city was filled with murderous sounds.

"This, what the hell is going on? Didn't Cao Yuanliang launch the rocket at the planned interval of a stick of incense? Zhang Da in the south of the city was shocked when he received the news that the north gate was lost.

However, at this time, no one could answer his question, as Zhu Siqing led his troops into the city in the north of the city, and the enemy troops at the west gate and south gate also took the opportunity to attack the city, and the city fell into chaos, and it was impossible to recover the situation.

"Cao Xin, you lead your troops to wait here, and Ben will take people to the north of the city to support!"

"Yes, the last general will obey!" Cao Xin replied solemnly, and led a battalion of his troops to quickly go up the city wall to deal with the attack of the Huainan soldiers.

However, what he didn't expect was that Zhang Da did not go to the north of the city to support at all, but led his subordinates directly to the east gate and out of the city.

Time went back to last night, and after Cao Yuanliang left, Yang Wu's face suddenly sank.

"General Qin, what do you think of this person?"

Qin Pei said with a smile, "This person's heart is towards my Huainan, which can be described as loyal." Now that there is this person as an internal response, our army will be able to break through Kunshan in one fell swoop! ”

"So you believe he really came to surrender?"

Qin Pei was stunned for a moment, then he knew that Yang Wu was suspicious, he thought carefully about what Cao Yuanliang did at the beginning, and then thought about what he said just now, and felt that Cao Yuanliang's words should have no flaws, and said with some hesitation at the moment, "Yes, the last general does believe him." Could it be that Childe still suspects him of fraud? ”

"Of course it's a swindle!" Yang Wu said with an affirmative face.

"Why is Childe so sure? Moreover, if Cao Yuanliang surrendered by fraud, then why did he take the initiative to come to our army's barracks tomorrow? Isn't that self-defeating? ”

remembered that when he was guarding Kunshan, the Cao family supported him a lot; And what he said was made difficult by the guard Zhang Da, which is understandable, after all, no one likes a family that used to work against him. In addition, this person took the initiative to be a hostage in the Huainan army, so he believed even more that this person was not a fraudulent surrender. But Yang Wu's affirmation made him hesitate a little.

It turned out that the reason why Yang Wu was sure that Cao Yuanliang was a deception was because he had the ability to observe loyalty. After he appointed Cao Yuanliang as the Kunshan Inspector, and the other party readily accepted to become Yang Wu's subordinate, it stands to reason that Yang Wu can see the other party's loyalty at this time; However, when Yang Wu went to see it, there was still no reaction. There is only one possibility: this person is not really coming to him!

Having come to this conclusion, Yang Wu's heart sank, but his face was silent, and he was still guilty of being with him.

He didn't start telling Qin Pei until Cao Yuanliang left, but although he was sure that Cao Yuanliang was a fraud, his reasons were not enough for outsiders.

"Although I don't know why he took the initiative to come to our army as a hostage, the general can be sure that he surrendered by fraud, because his words contradict himself."

"Contradictory?"

"Not bad!" Yang Wu could only pretend to be Di Renjie at this time and start analyzing for Qin Pei, "General Qin, just imagine, this person said that the Cao family was suppressed by the guard general Zhang Da, and that Zhang Da only had three battalions of troops in his hands, but let Cao Yuanliang's nephew control one of the battalions, is this also suppressing the Cao family?" ”

Qin Pei was stunned for a moment, and suddenly realized, "Yes, why didn't I think of it just now?" ”

In fact, Yang Wu was also deceived by Cao Yuanliang at the beginning, and when he used his ability to discover the other party's deception, he thought about it carefully, and then found the loophole. It's not that the two of them are stupid, but this contradiction is not obvious in the first place, not to mention that both of them were immersed in the excitement of "having the Cao family as an internal response, Kunshan is at your fingertips" at that time, and they didn't think about this issue carefully.

Although it is not yet possible to explain the reason why Cao Yuanliang took the initiative to come to the army as a hostage, Qin Pei and the others felt that it was better to be cautious, so after some discussion, they finally decided that regardless of whether this person surrendered or not, they secretly transferred Zhu Siqing to lead his thousands of people to attack Beiying.

In fact, as they expected, Zhang Da transferred most of a battalion in Beicheng to Nancheng in order to ambush the Huainan army, and tonight Zhu Siqing personally led people to wear black clothes, and under the cover of night, he really climbed the city wall in one fell swoop, and easily captured the gate of Beicheng, and then the rest of the Huainan army outside Beicheng swarmed along the open city gate.

And Qin Pei took 2,000 people to accompany Cao Yuanliang in a play in the south of the city.

At the beginning, when he saw Cao Yuanliang fidgeting, Qin Pei became even more suspicious; Later, when he saw that a rocket was launched, there was no response in the city, and it was not until a quarter of an hour later that the second rocket was launched before the city gate was opened, and Qin Pei's suspicions became even heavier. Coupled with the anxiety that Cao Yuanliang showed when he saw that he was not entering the city for a long time, Qin Pei affirmed his deception.

At this time, as Zhu Siqing broke into the north of the city, and the west gate and the south gate also quickly launched a fierce attack, Kunshan City was in chaos, and only a quarter of an hour later, these two gates also quickly fell into the hands of the Huainan army under Zhu Siqing's response; Half an hour later, Kunshan completely fell into the hands of Yang Wu.

When he came to the county office, Yang Wu regarded this place as a temporary station, and after a while, Qin Pei, Zhu Siqing, Chen Fan and Fan Sicong also arrived one by one.

"Childe, this Cao Yuanliang still doesn't speak, it seems that he doesn't go into the coffin and doesn't cry!" Fan Sicong smiled and kicked Cao Yuanliang, who was kneeling below.

"Hmph, why should he speak!" Yang Wugao sat on the main seat and smiled at everyone, "According to this person, his nephew is the gatekeeper of Nancheng, I don't know if he has been caught?" ”

"It is said that this person's name is Cao Xin, and he is indeed a battalion commander, but unfortunately he was killed in the corner of the south gate for stubborn resistance, otherwise he could have brought him to meet his uncle!" Chen Fan also said with regret on his face.

When Cao Yuanliang heard that his nephew had died in battle, his body shook suddenly, and tears flowed down, "Xin'er! ”

"What are you crying about, you're going to be reunited with your nephew soon, so don't be sad!" Fan Sicong snorted coldly.

He didn't have the slightest sympathy for this Cao Yuanliang, if it weren't for Gongzi's wit to see through this person's deception, he didn't know how many soldiers his side would lose tonight.

Only Qin Pei's perception of Cao Yuanliang is the most complicated, "Alas, Brother Cao not only took himself as a hostage to deceive him, but now he even lost his nephew's life, why is Brother Cao suffering?" What's the picture? ”

Recalling that he had received support from this person when he was defending the city, and the relationship between the two had always been good, but he didn't expect it to be like this now, and he couldn't help but sigh.

Yang Wu also asked with a puzzled face, "I'm also curious, Mr. Cao himself is a hostage, no matter whether our army is in the middle of the plan tonight or not, Your Excellency will not escape death." Why do you do this? ”

"Hahahaha, you want to know, I won't tell you! Kill me, I won't live long anyway! Hahahaha! Cao Yuanliang's miserable laughter made several people in the hall tingle.
