Chapter 147: Wang Shichong (II)
In July, Li Mi and Zhai Rang of the Wagang Army stormed the eastern capital Luoyang, defeating the Eastern Capital Army many times, and Luoyang's document for help flew to Jiangdu like snowflakes. Emperor Yang had no choice but to transfer the right imperial guard general, Zhuo County to stay behind Xue Shixiong to lead the Youyun Iron Cavalry, Jiangdu Tongshou Wang Shichong will Jiang and Huai Jin, Hu Benlang will Liu Changgong lead the Eastern Capital soldiers, the general Jingyang Pet Yu, Hu Benlang will Huo Shiju will be the Guan Nei soldiers, the general Wang Long will lead the Tunwei general Zhang Zhenzhou, Dushui Shaojian Su Shichang and other generals Qiong Huangman, Shannan soldiers, Hebei Province to recruit ambassadors, Taichang Shaoqing Wei Ji, Henan Province to recruit ambassadors, Huyalang general Wang Bian, Hanoi to guard Meng Shanyi, Heyang County Lieutenant Dugu Wudu。。。。。。 and other elite soldiers from all over the country to rescue Luoyang
Because the commander-in-chief of this military operation, Xue Shixiong, on the way to the march, was ordered by Emperor Yang of Sui to eliminate bandits along the way, but was attacked by Dou Jiande, the leader of the Hebei rebel army, in Qilijing, Hejian, due to the fog that day, people could not be identified from each other, and the Youyun Iron Cavalry bombed the camp, Xue Shixiong was embarrassed and led dozens of horsemen to flee back to Zhuo County, and died of grief and vomiting blood. Emperor Yang immediately appointed Wang Shichong as the commander-in-chief of the army to aid Luo.
Subsequently, in addition to the Shannan soldiers led by the general Wang Long, the general Zhang Zhenzhou of Tunwei, and the young eunuch of Dushui Su Shichang, Wang Shichong led a total of more than 100,000 reinforcements from all walks of life, and in less than a year, he fought hundreds of battles with the Wei army under Li Mi, killing Sima Yang Defang, Zheng Detao and strategist Chai Xiaohe left and right of the Wei army.
When Wang Wei led his troops to break through the Wei army camp, the Wei army was about to be unable to resist, but the horn of retreat was sounded, causing the front army to collapse when it heard the sound, Li Mi took the opportunity to cover up with iron horses, and the good situation of the Sui army was ruined. In this battle, Hu Benlang killed Huo Shiju, Hu Benlang Liu Changgong, and Hu Yalang Wang Wei three senior generals, and Pang Yu, the general of the prison gate, fled back to Guanzhong in embarrassment, and most of the more than 100,000 troops were lost, and finally Wang Shichong only received more than 20,000 stragglers.
At this moment, although Wang Shichong came out of the failure of the Luoshui collapse, there are only more than 20,000 people in Hanjiacang City, and the eastern capital is facing the attack of Li Mi's 300,000 heavy troops, and the situation is extremely critical.
"Prince, how are you thinking about it?" Dressed in a black robe and wearing a hat, the figure came from far and near.
"Let me think again!" Wang Shichong stared intently into the distance.
"Prince, your current situation is extremely disadvantaged, you can't be trapped in Hanjiacang City forever, it's time to make a choice!" The dark shadow narrowed into its long, slender eyes with distinct epicanthal folds.
Hearing this, Wang Shichong turned around slowly, his green eyes flashed with a cunning light, and said: "Lone wolf, even if I, Wang Shichong, want to change my course, it will be close to the King of Wei, and the King of Tang is far away in the pass, and the far water can't quench the thirst of the near, how can there be a reason to seek the near and far!?" ”
The lone wolf smiled faintly and said: "Prince, you should know very well that your subordinates and the Wei army assassinated Yue Nian, and the two sides have already formed a deep enmity in the sea of blood, even if Li Mi can tolerate you, Wang Bodang, Fang Yanzao, Pei Renji, can they tolerate you!?" ”
Wang Shichong pretended to be relaxed and said: "The Holy Lord has raised 200,000 Wang Divisions to the north and returned to the west, and now they have reached Liyang, as long as Wang Shi can break through Liyang and Tiger Prison, our Sui army can attack from both sides, and Li Mi will definitely be defeated!" ”
The lone wolf hooked his mouth and said: "Liyang is not so easy to fight, Xu Shiji is a famous general in Wagang, and there are 200,000 troops, if Li Mi breaks through the eastern capital first, then the prince's situation will be dangerous!" ”
Wang Shichong smiled and said: "The eastern capital is high and deep, and it has an unparalleled weapon to defend the city, Li Mi will never easily capture it!" I, Wang Shichong, can wait! There is time to wait slowly! At least we have to wait for a clear general trend! ”
Hearing this, the lone wolf was silent for a while, and then said with a smile: "The prince is really a smart person, and he knows the prince's thoughts!" ”
"Oh, please let Mr. Lone Wolf say it clearly!" Wang Shichong said with a smile.
"I will rush back to Guanzhong as soon as possible and persuade Tang Wang Xingshi to go east to relieve the siege of the eastern capital!" The lone wolf is authentic word by word.
Wang Shichong said with some skepticism: "Mr. Lone Wolf's energy is so great? Can you influence Tang Wang's thoughts? ”
The lone wolf turned around and stopped, and said, "This doesn't bother the prince, you can be sure of it!" ”
Wang Shichong smiled and said: "In order to avoid suspicion, then forgive Wang not far away!" ”
The lone wolf turned his back and said, "No need! When the time comes, the Tang division will come to the eastern capital, and I hope that the prince can make the most correct choice! ”
After that, the lone wolf performed light skills, and disappeared without a trace in a flash of smoke.
After the lone wolf left, Wang Shichong rushed to the dark corner of the city tower and said lightly: "Both of you have listened!" ”
Hearing this, Zhang Chuchen and Zhang Zhongjian were dressed in black robes and hats, dressed like lone wolves, and both walked out of the shadows, and said: "Wang Dashuai's loyalty to the court and the saint has been seen below!" ”
"Two hundred households are going to Guanzhong, you still have to be more careful, this lone wolf seems to be doing the same work as you, I have a feeling that he will be your fierce enemy!" Wang Shichong prompted in a friendly manner.
Zhang Zhongjian hugged his fists and said: "Thank you Wang Dashuai for reminding me, I will be more careful!" It's just that Wang Dashuai is here, and he has to give Li Tang some more signals, increasing the reasons and temptations for them to send troops, as long as the Tang army arrives, the situation in the eastern capital will be more complex and changeable, and then it will be time to watch Wang Dashuai's performance, two peaches kill three soldiers, this is Wang Dashuai's forte! ”
Hearing this, Wang Shichong raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "Each other, we are all the best actors!" ”
"So, I'll take my leave!" After that, Zhang Chuchen and Zhang Zhongjian left with their fists clenched.
"It's good for the two of you to go, don't send it!"
After the two left, the dark grid at Wang Shichong's feet twisted, and the figure of his brother Wang Shiyun slowly appeared by the city wall, he looked at the back of the two leaving, and asked: "Brother Xian, now you have three paths to go, which one are you going to take?" ”
Wang Shichong turned around, stood with his hands in his hands, looked into the distance again with his eyes, and asked casually, "What is my brother's opinion!?" ”
Wang Shiyun talked eloquently and said: "First, of course, it is to continue to be loyal to the Sui court to judge the situation; The second is that Mr. Lone Wolf's proposal to switch allegiance to the emerging Li Tang regime; This third, Taoguang is obscure, and the pursuit of self-reliance! ”
Wang Shichong snorted lightly and sneered: "Except for the first road, the other two roads seem to be dead ends now!" It doesn't work! ”
Wang Shiyun smiled evilly: "If you don't try, how do you know?" ”
Wang Shichong shook his head and said firmly: "My Wang family has a humble background, and has Hu blood, and its status has never been accepted by the family, it is not easy to get to this point, so why fight for the world!" This kind of thing, brother will easily stop saying it in the future! ”
