Chapter Seventy-Seven: Take the Initiative

The tent was full of bandits for many years, but when they heard this, they didn't shout as usual, but looked at Shen Muhong together with a tacit understanding.

Shen Muhong sat on the left side of Yue Chenfeng, his face was solemn, he was closing his eyes and thinking, seeing everyone's eyes, he said unyieldingly: "From the day we started the incident, we should know that there will be such a day, but there is no need to worry too much, the soldiers will come to block it." ”

When everyone saw that they had triumphed all the way and looked at each other, Shen Muhong still persuaded them not to underestimate the enemy, but now that the real opponent is coming, he changed his tone, just when he has any clever plan, they are all relieved, and the atmosphere in the tent is also relaxed.

Shen Muhong continued: "Let's go up the Yellow River, the Ming army in the capital should have arrived first, but that Wei Liangqing played gongs and drums along the way, arranging music and disturbing the people, so it hasn't arrived yet, the spies I sent out reported that the army had marched for more than ten days, and now it has just arrived in Puyang."

Who knows, this guy is crooked, he is like this, the march happened to come at the same time as Cao Wenzhao from Shaanxi, and Kaifeng is not far behind us, if the three armies come to attack at the same time, we are invincible. ”

Yue Yingying was dressed in men's clothes, with red silk tied hair, a silk belt tied to her waist, a bright and golden sword obliquely inserted in her waist, and her slender legs beat the leggings that rolled up a thousand waves, and she sat in the camp tent in a big way, heroic, and said when she heard the words: "Mr. must have an idea, don't sell it, just say how to fight?" ”

Shen Muhong looked at her angrily, and somehow, the more he looked at the sword on her waist, the more familiar it became, as if he had seen it somewhere.

Ge Jiu saw that he didn't speak, stared directly at his niece Yue Yingying's waist, coughed unhappily, and said, "Mr. Shen, you said that you don't need to worry, and you told the brothers that there are no enemies, so what should we do?" Rebellion is a job of losing our heads, so we can't carry our heads to ask for guilt. ”

Putting aside the usual, Yue Chenfeng had already reprimanded him, don't be rude, but now he was also anxious to know Shen Muhong's thoughts, so he didn't speak, just looked at him expectantly.

"I said that the three-way army will attack together, and we can't defeat it, so let them come one by one."

Ge Jiu smiled and shouted, "Can those bastards still listen to us?" If I could, I would just let them open the city gate and welcome the eldest brother to be an emperor. ”

Yue Chenfeng saw him shouting, interrupted his long-awaited strategy, and reprimanded: "Shut up, listen to Mr. Shen." ”

"Then Wei Liangqing is a fool, he must also know the reason for waiting for everyone to besiege us, since this is the case, we might as well take advantage of them not to form a pocket, take the initiative to attack, and kill all the people first."

"Good! It's a pleasant idea to listen to, and it's much more refreshing than waiting for someone else to come and fight here. ”

Seeing Shen Muhong, who had always been cautious, everyone in the tent rarely came up with an idea that matched their temperament, and they were greatly excited, gearing up, and they couldn't wait to fight.

Wang Jun is the deputy marshal, but after all, he is not the original class of Yuejiazhai, and he has rarely interjected, but this time the matter is important, and he can't help asking: "Then which one should we pick all the way to start?" ”

"Kaifeng City is high and deep, the soldiers are full of food, and opening the seal is tantamount to looking for death. Cao Wenzhao came with victory, morale is high, and it is not suitable to fight. Only Wei Liangqing has this way, although the soldiers and horses are the most elite and the weapons are the most sophisticated, but the coach has a straw bag, and his morale has been polished by him. It is said that the Shenji Battalion was used by him to cuddle grass and beat rabbits, blow up rocks to pave roads and build bridges. The Fifth Military Battalion also does the hard work of carrying sedan chairs and pulling fibers and serving people. The 3,000 battalions were even used by him to loot the people's fat and ointment, scourge the people along the way, and make people angry.

Let's start with him, Wei Liangqing is extremely rampant, and he is going around talking about beating us to run away, and we are frightened. We didn't expect that we would take the initiative to find him, we didn't wait for him to enter the boundary of Kaifeng Mansion, first went to ambush a group of people on the road, and took the life of this eunuch dog. ”

Yue Chenfeng bowed his head and said: "Yes, this trick is unexpected, but there are so many of us, it is difficult not to be discovered, for fear that he will get the news, and it is difficult to start." ”

Shen Muhong stood up and said, "Although there are many of us, there are all women and children, old and weak, and they are unbearable to fight, so it's useless to go." I really can't fight more than 10,000 people, and I have a plan to make the officers and soldiers of the three routes obediently listen to us, but the commander is a bit risky. ”

Yue Chenfeng said disapplausively: "There are still those who don't take risks in rebellion, who in the world doesn't rebel, what strategy does Mr. have, but it doesn't hurt to say it." ”

"Wang Shuai and I led us with 50,000 young and strong soldiers, marched at night, took the path, and chose a place to ambush Wei Liangqing. Yue Shuai had to lead his troops to feint to attack Kaifeng, first, to contain the enemy's main force, and second, to confuse the Ming army. ”

Wei Er was furious and said: "No, no, sir, you take away the main force of 5,000, the big boss with a group of old and weak soldiers to besiege Kaifeng, if the Kaifeng soldiers rush out, what should the eldest brother do?" ”

Shen Muhong said: "I expect that the soldiers of Kaifeng Mansion will not come out, even if Cao Wenzhao comes, they will not dare to attack Yue Shuai."

Wei Liangqing took command of the expedition this time, and anyone with a discerning eye knew that it was Wei Zhongxian who earned him military merits and took us as a sweetheart. If Wei Liangqing hadn't arrived yet, Cao Wenzhao or the Kaifeng soldiers would have exterminated us first, it wouldn't have been a big joke. This eunuch is now covering the sky with one hand, who dares to touch his moldy head. ”

"Then you can't let the eldest brother take this risk, let's come, eldest brother, you and Mr. Shen will intercept Wei Liangqing."

"I'm coming!"

"I'll come, big brother!"

Yue Chenfeng snorted: "Shut up!" I am a big commander with a gust of wind, these days we have captured the state and county, and there are many fleeing soldiers in Kaifeng Prefecture, and many of them have seen me. Sir's trick is the safest, only I am the bait.

Besides, your martial arts, who can compare with me, even if there is really danger, I stay and am the most likely to escape, don't fight, listen to Mr. Shen. ”

Shen Muhong clasped his hands into fists, learned from the appearance of these men in the rivers and lakes, bowed, and said movingly: "Yue Shuai, without further ado, we will set off now." ”

Yue Chenfeng smiled heartily and said, "I wish Mr. success." ”

"Wang Shuai, let's go, let's order troops outside the tent."

At the same time, in the military headquarters of the capital, Wei Zhongxian looked at the map on the table and asked, "Where is this kid Liangqing?" ”

A group of officials from the Ministry of War surrounded him, and the squire of the Ministry of War personally replied: "Grandpa Chitose, Duke Ning Guo has arrived in Puyang." ”

"What about Cao Wenzhao?"

"General Cao's soldiers and horses are stationed in Xuanwuwei, just wait for Ning Guogong to arrive, and cooperate with the Kaifeng Mansion soldiers to attack in three ways, and it will definitely be successful."

Wei Zhongxian was greatly satisfied, and said with a smile: "This gang of mud legs is also a little useful, pass the order, Kaifeng Mansion, Cao Wen's edict, obey the order on the spot, and must not act without authorization, and those who violate the order will be beheaded." You can't let someone else take the credit. ”

On the post road on the outskirts of Beijing, a horse galloped out, and the post man went away in the wind, carrying military orders and going straight to Kaifeng.
