Chapter 087: Marching into Zhengzhou

Fang Chengtian frowned, he was very dissatisfied with Huang Chao pushing him to the cusp, but everyone looked at him, and he couldn't afford to brush Huang Chao's face in front of everyone, so he had to smile and say, "General Huang, this ...... The last general has only been in the army for more than two months, and he has not even figured out the way to command the army, not to mention such a major event, the last general really dare not speak falsely?! ”

Huang Chao laughed and said: "General Fang is too modest, your ability is obvious to everyone, even if you say it, it doesn't matter if you say it wrong." ”

It seems that it is not okay not to say it, Fang Chengtian sighed secretly, hugged his fists and said: "Since General Huang thinks so highly of the last general, then the last general will tell me his opinion, if it is not right, please forgive General Huang!" ”

Huang Chao smiled and made a gesture of please.

Fang Chengtian coughed dryly, looked at Wang Xianzhi, and said slowly: "Just now, General Wang said that even if our army captures Luoxia, it will be very dangerous to be surrounded by the army of various sections, but the last general has some different opinions. ”

When Huang Chao heard this, he immediately showed a smile and threw an appreciative look at Fang Chengtian.

Wang Xianzhi was stunned and said, "Oh? What is General Fang's opinion? ”

Fang Chengtian smiled, hugged his fists and said, "Don't dare to be high!" The last general felt that our army had not yet captured Luoyang, and he was afraid that he would be surrounded! After saying that, he secretly glanced at the Yellow Nest.

I saw Huang Chao's face change, gritted his teeth and said, "What does General Fang mean...... Could it be that we shouldn't attack Luoyang? So what do you think we should do next? ”

Fang Chengtian smiled and said, "Judging from the current situation of our army, the last general thinks that getting out of the predicament as soon as possible is the first choice. ”

Huang Chao frowned, half-squinted his eyes, and looked at Fang Chengtian directly, without saying a word.

Fang Chengtian didn't look at him, his eyes swept over everyone, and he said, "Luoyang City has thick walls, it is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and now the army of Zeng Yuanyu, the deputy envoy, has also arrived in Luoyang, and it will be difficult for our army to capture it in a short period of time, not to mention that there are Shannan Dongdao Jiedu envoys in the south, Zhaoyi Jiedu envoys in the north, and Suining and Fengxiang Jiedu in the west to make them eye, just say ......"

He paused and continued: "Huainan Jiedu made Song Wei with tens of thousands of troops from Zhongwu, Xuanwu, Yicheng, and Tianping, and has been following behind our buttocks, although I don't know why he always waits and sees this time and does not launch a large-scale attack on our army, but his move is by no means kind, and he may bite us hard when he will bite us, so he has to guard against it!" ”

Although the generals looked down on Fang Chengtian, they couldn't help but nod their heads after hearing his words, and some even agreed.

"General Fang is right, attacking Luoyang is indeed a bit risky."

"Yes, I hope the two generals will think twice!"

"Yes, we should take advantage of the opportunity for the imperial court to recruit peace and the armies to wait and see, and quickly get out of the predicament!"

......

Wang Xianzhi kept nodding his head and laughed: "General Fang is really extraordinary, what he just said is also very reasonable, the plan to attack Luoyang is really not possible, and the brothers must not mention it again." ”

After speaking, he glanced at Huang Chao and continued: "That general thinks that Zhengzhou is desirable? ”

In fact, he had also thought about attacking Zhengzhou before, but seeing that the Tang army had gathered more and more in recent days, he really shouldn't stay in Henan Province for a long time, so he had the heart to give up.

Hearing this, Fang Chengtian quickly glanced at Huang Chao.

I saw Huang Chao frowning, clenching his teeth, staring straight at the wine and food on the table, without saying a word, I don't know what he was thinking?

Fang Chengtian raised the corners of his mouth, smiled slightly, and said, "As for this Zhengzhou......

He wanted to continue to talk about the difficulties of attacking Zhengzhou, but as soon as he said this, a cold voice sounded, directly interrupting his words.

"Zhengzhou must be fought, otherwise our army's food and grass will be useless!"

Huang Chao's gaze swept over everyone, and his eyes were sharp!

Wang Xianzhi exclaimed: "Brother Huang Xian, is there not enough grain and grass? ”

The rear army and cavalry have always been under the control of Huang Chao, so only he knows the problem of grain and grass.

Huang Chao looked at Wang Xianzhi, nodded heavily, and said in a deep voice: "Yes, even if Brother Wang wants to go south, he must prepare enough grain and grass!" ”

Wang Xianzhi sighed, frowned and was silent for a long time before he said slowly: "Okay, early tomorrow morning, march to Zhengzhou!" ”

Zhengzhou once built the capital of Zheng for Wang Shichong in the first year of enlightenment, and the city wall is not as thick as Luoyang.

The Zuo Xiao cavalry guard led by Fang Chengtian was ordered to be the vanguard of the march, explore the road in front of the head, and arrive in Zhengzhou first.

Under the oblique light of the morning sun, the towering and tall city wall of Zhengzhou, at least twenty zhang high, dragged a long black shadow on the ground, and the elite of the Tang army patrolled back and forth on the city wall, and was heavily guarded.

Fang Chengtian was hiding in the dense forest in the north of the city, his brows were furrowed, especially when he saw that there was an arc-shaped city wall outside the north wall gate, which surrounded the north wall, his brows furrowed more and more, and wrinkled into the word "Chuan"!

Urn City ......

Moreover, the city wall of this urn city is high and wide, the height is equal to the north wall, and the flags are displayed on the city wall, and the soldiers are numerous!

If you want to enter the city through the city gate, you must first enter this urn city, but once you enter, you will become a turtle in the urn, and you will inevitably be hit hard.

Li Xiangrong stood next to Fang Chengtian, staring at the north wall of Zhengzhou in the distance, his face gradually became heavy, and he sighed: "I'm afraid this Zhengzhou city is not easy to fight......

Fang Chengtian let out a long sigh, his eyes showed a hint of gloom, and he shook his head and said, "It's a pity that this battle has become inevitable, I don't know how many soldiers will bury their bones here!" ”

Dong Zizheng, as a personal guard, also came with him, he shook his head and smiled: "You grass thieves...... The army is really bold enough, and it dares to attack Zhengzhou, which is a powerful city defense, but it is famous! 'Forty-five miles of Oxhorn City' is not called for nothing! ”

Fang Chengtian seemed to be stunned, and after a long time, he reluctantly smiled and said, "Let's go!" ”

Noon.

Bright flags, fluttering in the wind.

The power of the scorching sun seems to have frightened the wind so that it does not dare to act rashly, but the wind can still blow the banner and blow "whirring"!

Under the banner, it was crowded with soldiers in armor and weapons, densely packed, extending to both sides, seemingly boundless!

In front of the soldiers, there were neatly placed rushing carts, catapults, and shield carts...... The number is too large to count!

If you stand on the north wall of Zhengzhou and look out from afar, you will definitely be stunned by the scene outside the city, and your heart will be shattered by the murderous aura that soars to the sky!

There were people on the north wall, many people, wearing armor and holding weapons, looking out of the city with a nervous expression.

"The grass thief is coming!!" I don't know who it was, but I shouted, and the people on the city wall suddenly moved.

Some people picked up bows and arrows, poked out of the stacks of arrows, and aimed them at the outside of the city, and the tips of the arrows that flashed with edge, anyone who looked at them would feel inexplicably afraid.

Some people carried spears and halberds aloft through the city walls......

The Great War is imminent!
