Chapter 1202: The Last Days of the Great Marshal (I)
When Bian Wushuang entered the city, he happened to see the roof of the inner city tower, and the fluttering Qi Dragon Flag was pulled up by a soldier and thrown to the city, replaced by a Chu State Fire Phoenix Flag, and Suqian to Le Ma stood under the Fire Phoenix Flag, Bian Wushuang laughed, rode into the city, went straight to the inner city along the ramp, and stood side by side with Suqian.
The two of them looked to the east, and at their height, they could still see the fleeing soldiers and horses of the Qi State in the distance.
"How many people have run?" Bian Wushuang asked.
"Zhou Jiyun and his most elite guards, more than 3,000 people." Suqian said, "Why let them go?"
"In the next big game, of course!" Bian Wushuang smiled.
"Let this guy go, it will cause us a lot of trouble in the future, this person is not a Muggle who can be dealt with at will, this time we got lucky, it was he who underestimated the enemy. With this lesson, it will not be so easy to defeat him easily in the future!" Suqian said a little unhappily: "I don't know what big chess you want to play, but it doesn't feel very good."
Bian Wushuang laughed: "General Su, you are a military general with a straight intestine, well, there are some things that you may not be easy to understand. Seeking a country cannot be limited to one city and one place, and it will be gained and lost for a while! In short, letting him go will be more beneficial than good for us in the future."
"Still seeking a country?" Su Qian laughed: "Bian Dashuai, I don't think that our Dachu still has the ability to seek others, thanks to you, if we can really recapture the six eastern counties, we can take a breath. But maybe the best thing to do is to keep this foundation, and it would be good not to be sought by others."
"Hope is still going to be used, don't you say? What if it happens!" Bian Wushuang stared at Suqian with a smile. Think about Daming, what did Qin Feng have at the beginning? Hundreds of remnants of the defeated army, the guy who occupies the mountain as the king, and now? Called a lonely man. Let's better be better now than he was then! What he can do, maybe we can do too!"
Su Qian's pupils shrank, turned his head to look at Bian Wushuang, and the corners of his mouth turned up slightly: "It's a pity that you are not him, Qin Feng has only one. Bian Shuai, you have been frightened by Qin Feng from Qin State to Chu State, where do you have the confidence to want to do the same thing as him?"
Bian Wushuang's old face turned red, and he was a little embarrassed: "General Su, nothing in this world is really impossible. Let's say you and me, a year ago, we were still fighting for life and death in the Luoying Mountains, right? They all gritted their teeth and stared at each other, eager to swallow each other alive, but now, can you think that we will fight side by side, or even enjoy the scenery here?"
"I can't imagine it!" Su Qian snorted, turned the horse's head, and whipped the horse's stock, the horse neighed sadly, stepped away with its four hooves, and ran away quickly on the city wall.
Looking at the sudden departure of the departure, Bian Wushuang's eyes couldn't help but narrow a little more thinly.
"Bian Shuai!" Yang Qing happened to come to the city at this time, to look at Suqian, who was far away, and then at Bian Wushuang, whose face was a little uncertain, he said softly: "Didn't you talk well with General Su?"
"General Su still has an opinion of me!" Bian Wushuang said a little helplessly: "It's probably because we've been fighting the enemy in the Luoying Mountain Range for a long time, right?"
"Not really!" Yang Qing shook his head: "The battle of Qin and Chu, that is a national war, there is no personal grudge, now Bian Shuai is also the general of our Chu State, General Su is not for this."
"And what does he mean?" Bian Wushuang asked.
Yang Qing hesitated for a moment before he said: "General Su joined the army very early, although he was on the side of the western border city as soon as he joined the army, but it was also my army of Da Chu!"
"Got it!" Bian Wushuang nodded, "He admires Cheng Wuben very much, right?"
Yang Qing nodded: "Yes, at that time, there were very few soldiers in the Chu State who did not worship Cheng Wuben, Bian Shuai, if you are not angry, in the eyes of our Great Chu, the Qin State was a disease of scabies, and the Qi State was our henchman, and Cheng Shuai, who had been guarding the eastern border for more than 20 years, did not let the Qi people cross the Lei Chi step."
"What is there to be angry about." Bian Wushuang smiled faintly: "At that time, the Lao Tzu of the Qi State was the first in the world, the Chu State was the second, and the strength of the Qin State was indeed far inferior to your Chu State. I'm just very strange, since Suqian admires Cheng Wuben very much, why does he want to cooperate with me, he should understand what it means to cooperate with me after a big victory?"
Yang Qing showed some strange looks on his face, and only after a while did he say: "There is nothing strange about it, in our Dachu, but anyone with foresight knows that they must choose, between the emperor and Cheng Wuben, they must choose one. Otherwise, if Da Chu goes on like this, he will collapse first without waiting for the enemy to come. In the past, he didn't have a choice, but now that Bian Shuai has shown his ability, he has a choice, so even if General Su is dissatisfied, he can only make a choice."
"I see!" Bian Wushuang nodded knowingly. What about General Yang, are you the same as General Su?"
Hearing Bian Wushuang ask like this, Yang Qing couldn't help but be stunned, and only said after a while: "I am different from General Su, I don't need to choose."
"Got it!" Bian Wushuangdao.
Bian Wushuang, who slowly rode his horse to the city, suddenly turned around and asked, "Commander Yang, do you admire Cheng Wuben?"
Yang Qing was stunned for a long time, but did not answer Bian Wushuang directly: "Bian Shuai, I joined the army very early."
Bian Wushuang laughed, whipped his horse and galloped away: "When the Qi army in the Jinghu area is completely annihilated, I will go to Jinghu to practice for Cheng Shuai."
Looking at Bian Wushuang's back, Yang Qing sighed inaudibly.
Suqian had to choose, he didn't need to choose, so at this time in Jinghu County, how would those generals choose? It certainly won't be smooth sailing. When Bian Wushuang went to Jinghu County, I was afraid that there would be a huge turmoil, whether Da Chu could withstand this catastrophe depended on whether the handover was smooth this time, if it didn't go well, even if it was a big victory in front of him, it would not be enough to reverse this tragedy.
"Someone!" He whispered.
Immediately after the female wall, several people stood up.
"Inform all of us to evacuate Wanzhou County." Yang Qing said in a deep voice.
"Ah, Commander, aren't you going to join forces with the Qi army in the Jinghu area next with Jinghu?" One of the internal guard generals looked up in some shock.
"We are internal guards, not field troops, we have done what we should do, and the next thing is the field army, and we have more important things to do." YANG Qingdao.
"Yes, Commander, where do we go next?"
"Let's go back to Jinghu County!" YANG Qingdao.
"Yes!"
In the afternoon, in Wanzhou City, Bian Wushuang convened the lieutenant general to discuss the matter, and when he heard that Yang Qing had led the internal guards to leave Wanzhou City, Bian Wushuang was slightly stunned, and he no longer cared, but Suqian, his face was very bad.
The news of Jinghu County, Wanzhou City's victory has been transmitted. But in the Great Marshal's Mansion, none of the people gathered here felt particularly happy.
It's an extremely strange feeling. Since the establishment of the Jinghu defense line, from the initial passive beating, to the gradual formation of a stalemate, all the generals never thought that the day of the counterattack would come so soon. Bian Wushuang's sneak attack on Wanzhou City and victory meant that the Chu army had surrounded tens of thousands of Qi troops in the Jinghu area, and after they lost their water division, they suffered such a two-sided attack, and it was only a matter of time before they were destroyed.
The recapture of Wanzhou City is at hand. As soon as Wanzhou City is recovered, Jinghu will no longer be the first line of battle, but will have a buffer area ahead.
It's a great event, but here I have mixed emotions and I don't know how to express my feelings at this time.
Bian Wushuang's victory and the recovery of Wanzhou City mean that Cheng Shuai is leaving.
Cheng Shuai, who left the Jinghu frontline, is no longer Cheng Shuai, and the worry about his life is in the blink of an eye.
Cheng Wuben sat behind the big case, his upper body was straight, looking at the affection on the faces of the civil and military ministers on the left and right, his eyebrows were raised, and his hands were patted, "What's the matter?" Aha, a big victory, recapturing Wanzhou City is the beginning of our counteroffensive. Zhou Jiyun's department was eaten by us with these tens of thousands of horses, and it was overstretched in the six eastern counties, and he couldn't take care of his arms and stomachs, and the domestic situation of Qi was delicate, and it was difficult for Zhou to get reinforcements in a short time, which was a good time for us to recover the six eastern counties. With the six eastern counties, Da Chu has a barrier again, and finally has time to breathe. This is a great thing, a great thing! Come, let's congratulate Bian Dashuai together!"
Cheng Wuben applauded vigorously, but in the lobby, it was Liao Liao.
"What's wrong? I haven't left yet, and no one listens?" Cheng Wuben's two white eyebrows slowly erected.
The hall finally burst into feeble applause.
"Push harder!" Cheng Wuben pounded the table angrily.
This time, the applause finally burst into applause.
In the midst of the applause, with a bang, Jiang Shangyan pushed away the chair suddenly, stood up, turned around and strode out.
"Egami Yan!" Cheng Wuben shouted angrily: "Get back for me."
"Dashuai, my chest is tight, I want to go out to breathe!" Jiang Shangyan turned around and said loudly.
"This marshal is about to arrange military affairs, as the general of the Jinghu cavalry, you can't go anywhere, sit down!" Cheng Wuben yelled.
Jiang Shangyan glared at Cheng Wuben, Cheng Wuben also glared at him angrily, and after a while, Jiang Shangyan finally walked back to the chair and sat down again, but his eyes were already red.
"Lord Zeng." Cheng Wuben's face disappeared with anger, and he looked at the civil official on his left with a smile: "This good news should be known to all the people in Jinghu County immediately, it is better to be happy alone than to be happy!"
Zeng Lin nodded: "Don't worry, after the meeting, I will immediately post a notice for the whole city, and send a fast horse to inform the whole county."
"Good!" Cheng Wuben laughed and said: "Since Wanzhou City has fallen into the hands of my Great Chu, next, we will naturally launch a counterattack with all our strength, and attack Bian Dashuai before and after, and completely annihilate this Qi army. Now, I command!"
There was an uproar, and the officials in the room, regardless of martial arts, all stood up in unison.
