Chapter 427: A Surprise from the Four Daughters
After listening to the words of Wu Changlin, the commander of the Red Turban Army, Wu Zhan, said with a wry smile: "We didn't expect that the 20,000 or 30,000 cavalry of the Broken Army would have the courage to attack the 150,000 army, and the result was won, alas--I can only say that the combat effectiveness of the cavalry of the Broken Army is too strong, I know that Elder Wu and Elder Wen, as well as many disciples of the Guanghan Palace, have done their best, but the next day of our 900,000 army is not good." β
When the other 14th Route Ping rebels arrived in the imperial court, the Red Turban Army here in Qinhuai City had recovered to the scale of nearly 700,000, plus two batches of Red Turban Army reinforcements from Suzhou, as well as the young Zhuang requisitioned from the occupied area of the Red Turban Army in Suzhou, and then removed the attack of the 14th Road Ping Rebel Army on the Red Turban Army camp, which brought 30,000 losses to the Red Turban Army, and the 50,000 elites of the Red Turban Army who went to intercept the grain route, and now the Red Turban Army here in Qinhuai City has a total of almost 900,000 people.
Liu Yueting, a personal disciple of Guanghan Palace, frowned and asked, "General Wu, how many days of food is enough in the army now?" β
Wu Zan sighed and said, "It's barely enough for six days." β
As soon as they heard that there were only six days of military rations, the faces of everyone in the tent were gloomy, and at this time, in addition to the two elders of the Guanghan Palace, Wu Changlin and Wen Lurui, as well as the personal disciples of the Guanghan Palace, Liu Yueting and Lu Xueshan, there were dozens of generals of the Red Turban Army, and Su Ruoyu, Xie Fangfei, Tan Ruofei and Lu Yaoyi, the four personal disciples of the Guanghan Palace, were also there.
At this time, Chen Hongxin, the deputy commander of the Red Turban Army, said in a deep voice: "Now the cavalry of the Broken Army has entered the counties south of Qinhuai City, so that the grain route of our 900,000 troops here in Qinhuai City is basically cut off, even if we send people to the occupied area to collect grain, it will be difficult to transport the grain to Qinhuai City, it seems that we can only make a desperate bet and have a decisive battle with the army of the imperial court, otherwise after six days, our 900,000 army will collapse without a fight!" β
The most important strategist under Wu Zan and the first fierce general, Zhang Qian, nodded solemnly and said: "The current situation is only a broken kettle, if you win, of course everything will be fine, but even if you lose, we still have nearly a hundred camps to hold onto, and our food can hold on for a while longer." β
Deputy Commander Chen Hongxin said gloomily: "This is also a matter of no choice, for the future of our Red Turban Army, we can only sacrifice some soldiers." β
Wu Zan gritted his teeth and said: "It seems that this is the case, but the sacrifice of these soldiers will not be in vain, we must at least bite off a piece of meat on the body of the Broken Army and other imperial court troops!" β
The two elders and the six personal disciples of the Guanghan Palace all understood that the Red Turban Army's attack on the imperial army this time should have little hope of victory, but the real intention was to sacrifice some of the Red Turban Army officers and soldiers in order to save military food, which made everyone in the Guanghan Palace feel a chill in their hearts.
Next, Wu Zan said to Wu Changlin and Wen Lurui, the elders of Guanghan Palace: "Elder Wu, Elder Wen, there are several fierce generals under the command of General Liu Ji, and it is very likely that they have the strength of peerless generals, and on the battlefield, these peerless generals under Liu Ji can only rely on the two elders." β
Wu Changlin nodded and said: "General Wu, don't worry, this time our two brothers came to Qinhuai City to help the Red Turban Army deal with the fierce generals in the imperial army. β
Wen Lurui followed and said: "In the face of tens of thousands of cavalry of the Broken Army, although our two brothers can't save the battle, if we fight one-on-one, there are absolutely only a handful of people in the world who can beat our two brothers, and the peerless generals under Liu Ji will be handed over to our two brothers!" β
After the luncheon to welcome the elders of the Guanghan Palace, Wu Changlin and Wen Lurui, as well as the personal disciples of the Guanghan Palace, Liu Yueting and Lu Xueshan, Su Ruoyu, Xie Fangfei, Tan Ruofei and Lu Yaoyi quietly gathered in the tent where Su Ruoyu and Xie Fangfei lived.
Lu Yao said in a coquettish voice: "The news that the Red Turban Army is about to launch an attack must be notified to the husband as soon as possible. β
Su Ruoyu immediately said: "The four of us are not able to leave now, I think we can send a personal guard of the husband to immediately rush back to the camp of the Broken Army to report to the husband." β
Tan Ruofei sighed and said: "It's a pity that we haven't had the opportunity to carry out the beheading operation and take down Wu Zhan, Chen Hongxin, and Zhang Qian, otherwise Fujun would have won this battle." β
Xie Fangfei's face was a little helpless and said: "Wu Zan and them, the generals of the Red Turban Army, the number of guards around us is too many, we have no chance to attack at all, even if the four personal guards sent to us by the husband have the strength of peerless fierce generals, it is impossible to take down Wu Zan and others under the protection of so many guards!" β
In fact, Liu Ji did not let Su Ruoyu, Xie Fangfei, Tan Ruofei and Lu Yaoyi carry out any beheading operations, capturing Wu Zhan, Chen Hongxin, Zhang Qian, the generals of the Red Turban Army, the beheading operation is completely self-proclaimed by the four women, hoping to help Liu Ji.
Su Ruoyu suddenly showed a solemn expression and said to the other three women: "Now that Elder Wu, Elder Wen, and Liu Yueting and Lu Xueshan of Kaiyang Palace have all arrived outside Qinhuai City, the four of us must be more careful, don't show any flaws, if our relationship with our husband is exposed, the four of us will definitely not only be disqualified from inheriting the position of palace master, but will definitely have other more serious punishments for us!" β
A cold light flashed in Lu Yaoyi's eyes and said: "Although the sweat medicine given to us by the husband cannot be used on Wu Zhan, Chen Hongxin, and Zhang Qian, we can completely use it on Elder Wu, Elder Wen, and the two senior sisters Yue Ting and Xue Shan, Elder Wu and Elder Wen have a huge threat to Fu Jun, and the two senior sisters Yue Ting and Xue Shan, if they can stand on the same front with us, then some things will be much easier." β
Tan Ruofei's eyes lit up, "Senior Sister Yaoyi is right, Elder Wu, Elder Wen, as well as Yueting and Xue Shan, will not have any precautions against us, if we use that kind of special sweat medicine, our chances of success are very high." β
Su Ruoyu said with some hesitation: "If Liu Yueting and Lu Xueshan can become the women of their husbands, if there is no accident, they will fall in love with their husbands like us, but what about Elder Wu and Elder Wen?" If Elder Wu and Elder Wen were missing, the master would definitely not give up! β
Xie Fangfei said with a smile at this time: "With the four of us, plus Liu Yueting and Lu Xueshan, I believe that if the six personal disciples speak in unison, the master will not have any doubts." β
"Since everyone agrees, let's take the plunge!" The look in Su Ruoyu's eyes also became firm.
After Su Ruoyu, Xie Fangfei, Tan Ruofei and Lu Yao unified according to the opinions of the four women, they immediately sent the puppet bodyguard Liu Ka to secretly make a detour back to the camp of the Broken Army, first went to report to Liu Ji the news that the Red Turban Army was about to attack, and conveyed the news that they were going to attack the two elders of Guanghan Palace and the two disciples of the personal transmission to Liu Ji.
According to the meaning of Wu Zhan, the commander of the Red Turban Army, it is likely that the Red Turban Army will attack the imperial army inside and outside Qinhuai City tomorrow.
On the evening of December 28, the fourth daughter prepared a banquet and invited Wu Changlin and Wen Lurui, the elders of Guanghan Palace, as well as Liu Yueting and Lu Xueshan, the personal disciples of Guanghan Palace.
As a result, just after a glass of wine, Elder Wu Changlin and Wen Lurui, as well as Liu Yueting and Lu Xueshan, were all stunned by the colorless and tasteless sweat medicine, and the four people who were stunned were indeed defenseless at all, they would never have thought that the four personal disciples of the Guanghan Palace would betray the Guanghan Palace together.
Then Su Ruoyu, Xie Fangfei, Tan Ruofei and Lu Yao discussed with the four women, and transported the stunned four people to the camp of the Broken Army in a carriage overnight, of course, the four people who fainted have been tied up solidly, even if Wu Changlin and Wen Lurui, the two peerless generals, wake up, they will definitely not be able to break free of the rope by themselves, not to mention Su Ruoyu and other four women and three puppet bodyguards with peerless military strength to follow all the way.
After Liu Ji got the news sent by Su Ruoyu and the other four women, the puppet bodyguard Liu Ka, he immediately discussed countermeasures with Zhang Liang, Jia Xu, Fang Xuanling, Fan Zeng, Li Ru, and Chen Gong, the six top ministers, and then invited the commanders of the other 14th Route Suppression Rebel Army, as well as Sun Ziheng, the general of the chariot cavalry in Qinhuai City, to the camp of the Broken Army outside the city and relayed the news he got to them.
Of course, how did Liu Ji get this news? It was impossible for Liu Ji to tell Sun Ziheng, the general of the Che Cavalry, and the other commanders of the 14th Route Suppression Rebel Army.
Knowing that the Red Turban Army was about to launch an attack on the imperial army, the commanders of the other 14th Route Ping Rebel Army were not surprised and overjoyed, and said that they would teach the Red Turban Army a hard lesson this time.
The commanders of the other 14th Route Ping rebel army already knew that the cavalry of the Broken Rebel Army had annihilated almost 50,000 Red Turban Army not long ago, and their 14th Route Ping Rebel Army attacked the Red Turban Army's camp in the east outside Qinhuai City, but was hit on the head and bled out.
Sun Ziheng, the general of the cavalry, confidently assured that the Red Turban Army would not want to step into Qinhuai City for half a step.
Now there are about 23,000 forbidden troops, 40,000 box troops and local troops, 120,000 young and strong men recruited from the city, and 8,000 people from an infantry battalion of the Guards Regiment of the Broken Army in the city, and 20,000 elites of the other 14th Route Suppression Rebel Army.
In the end, Liu Ji and the other commanders of the 14th Route Suppression Rebel Army and the chariot general Sun Ziheng agreed that all the imperial army outside the city would be under Liu Ji's command, while the troops inside the Qinhuai city would have to obey the orders of the chariot general Sun Ziheng.
Liu Ji didn't expect that Su Ruoyu, Xie Fangfei, Tan Ruofei and Lu Yaoyi would send the puppet bodyguard Liu Ka back to the camp of the Broken Army in the afternoon to report the news, but they came over in person in the evening and brought a huge surprise to Liu Ji.
When the elders of Guanghan Palace, Wu Changlin and Wen Lurui, arrived at the camp of the Broken Army, they had already sobered up, and they looked at the eyes of Su Ruoyu, Xie Fangfei, Tan Ruofei and Lu Yaoyi, as if they were going to eat them, but unfortunately their mouths were blocked, otherwise they would definitely scold.
Liu Yueting and Lu Xueshan, the personal disciples of Guanghan Palace, who were tied, also had anger on their faces, they couldn't understand why Su Ruoyu, Xie Fangfei, Tan Ruofei and Lu Yaoyi, who were also sisters, betrayed their teachers?
Liu Ji used the scanning function of the system to check the three-dimensional values of the two elders of the Guanghan Palace, as well as the four-dimensional values of the two personal disciples, and couldn't help but excitedly kiss Su Ruoyu, Xie Fangfei, Tan Ruofei and Lu Yaoyi.
The two elders of Guanghan Palace, Wu Changlin and Wen Lurui, have a force value of 103 points, while Liu Yueting, a personal disciple of Guanghan Palace, has a force value of 93 points, and a charm value of 94 points, and Lu Xueshan, a personal disciple of Guanghan Palace, has a force value of 91 points, and a charm value of 91 points.
Liu Ji immediately asked the puppet bodyguards around him to carry Wu Changlin and Wen Lurui to another unmanned tent, and then asked the puppet bodyguards to forcibly feed Wu Changlin and Wen Lurui a puppet pill.
About a stick of incense passed, Wu Changlin and Wen Lurui opened their lifeless eyes at the same time, and shouted to Liu Ji expressionlessly: "Master! β
Immediately, Liu Ji received two prompts from the system, "Congratulations to the user for using the puppet pill to subdue a peerless general, rewarding the user's top Wenchen Xun Yu, and rewarding the user with four puppet pills." β
"Congratulations to the user for using the puppet pill to subdue a peerless general, rewarding the user's top Wenchen Xun You, and rewarding the user with two puppet pills."
Xun Yu, force value 48, intelligence value 96, commander value 88, Xun Yu is the Eastern Han Dynasty at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty Cao Cao's unification of the north of the chief strategist and hero, Xun Yu in the early years was known as "Wang Zuozhicai", the first filial piety, appointed to guard the palace order, after abandoning the official to return to his hometown, and led the clan to take refuge in Jizhou, was treated by Yuan Shao as a guest, and then defected to Cao Cao, the official to the servant, Shou Shang Shu Ling, Feng Wan Sui Pavilion Marquis, because of his appointment Shang Shu Ling, in the middle of the weight for more than ten years, dealing with military affairs, was respectfully called "Xun Lingjun", and later because of the opposition to Cao Cao called Wei Gong and Cao Cao was jealous, Transferred out of the center, he became ill and died of depression in Shouchun.
In terms of strategy, Xun Yu formulated a blueprint and military line for Cao Cao's plan to unify the north, and repeatedly revised Cao Cao's strategic policy and was praised by Cao Cao, including "deeply rooted in the foundation to control the world" and "welcome the Son of Heaven"; In terms of tactics, he faced the rebellion of LΓΌ Bu and protected the three cities of Yanzhou, and plotted to strangle Yuan Shao in Guandu; In terms of politics, Cao Cao recommended a large number of talents such as Zhong Xuan, Xun You, Chen Qun, Du Xi, Xi Zhicai, Guo Jia, etc., and was called "my son's room" by Cao Cao.
Xun You, force value 41, intelligence value 96, commander value 81, Cao Cao's adviser in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, Xun Yu's nephew, Xun You served as a waiter of the Yellow Gate during He Jin's reign, and was imprisoned for plotting to assassinate Dong Zhuo when Dong Zhuo entered Beijing, and then abandoned the official and went home.
When Cao Cao conquered Lu Bu, Xun You dissuaded Cao Cao from retreating, and offered a strange plan to flood Picheng, capture Lu Bu alive, the battle of Guandu Xun You offered a plan to attack the east and west, kill Yan Liang and Wen Chou, and planned strange soldiers, sent Xu Huang to burn Yuan Shao's grain and grass, and at the same time strongly advocated Cao Cao to accept Xu You, draw a strategy Wuchao, and made great contributions, during the pacification of Hebei, Xun You tried to eliminate the public opinion, advocated Cao Cao to eliminate Yuan Shao's sons, and was named the Marquis of Lingshu Pavilion by Cao Cao's court, Xun You acted carefully and low-key, full of strategies, and was praised by Cao Cao, Jian'an for 19 years, Xun You died on the way to Cao Cao's attack on Wu.
The more you use the puppet pill to subdue the peerless generals, the less rewards the system will give, but fortunately, these two times you use the puppet pill to subdue the peerless generals, there are still rewards from top scholars, and they are the famous uncles and nephews of Xun Yu and Xun You.
After Wu Changlin and Wen Lurui became puppet bodyguards, the force value did not increase, it was still 103 points, Wu Changlin was named Liu Lin by Liu Ji, and Wen Lurui was named Liu Rui by Liu Ji.
With the addition of Liu Lin and Liu Rui, the number of puppet bodyguards under Liu Ji's command with peerless military strength has increased to nine, because Liu Ji was rewarded with six puppet pills, so that the number of puppet pills in Liu Ji's hands has increased instead of decreasing, and has reached twenty-nine.
After turning the two elders of Guanghan Palace into puppet bodyguards, Liu Ji returned to the tent where he lived with a smile on his face, and then talked to Su Ruoyu, Xie Fangfei, Tan Ruofei and Lu Yaoyi for a while, and the four girls left the tent with a conscious smile, leaving the tent to Liu Ji and Liu Yueting and Lu Xueshan who were tied.
