Chapter 50: Fierce Battle
A quarter and a half of an hour later, as the cavalry and foot soldiers arrived one by one, Liu Hong and Jia Weifang let go of their hanging hearts, and the big event was decided, Jia Wei said with some joy and surprise: "This thief army's city wall has been lax so much, it really makes me breathtaking, and after almost half an hour, no one has returned to defend." ”
Liu Hong was also in a happy mood, and said with a smile: "This is a disaster, and I am lucky!" ”
"Uncle."
As soon as Liu Wei spoke, he saw an unkind gaze, thought about it in his heart, reacted, and hurriedly changed his words: "General, what should I do next." ”
"Be quiet, big things are still the same, Yanchang, the book I gave you, can you read it? How can there be no progress? ”
After being trained, Liu Wei retreated helplessly, Liu Hong shook his head, this kid is just being trained, not growing, and his old state is so fast that it is similar to the pine of the Shanyin City Gate.
"Haha, don't worry about Ming Gong, Yanchang kid's temperament, just practice more."
Liu Hong smiled bitterly: "Alas, Mo Yan, this naughty boy, Gongyan, what should I do next?" ”
When Jia Wei heard this, he knew that Liu Hong had a new mind, and according to the previous plan, once he inquired about the location of Xu Sheng, the king of Yue, he would take advantage of his unstable foothold to raise troops to catch him off guard. But after the battle to seize the door, the two learned through interrogation that as soon as Xu Sheng, the king of Yue, entered the city, he got carried away and committed violence; But he didn't expect that Shanyin had been broken, and the county soldiers in the city were not all scattered, and some of them actually retreated to the county government, relying on the geographical advantage, and for a while, they couldn't attack it.
Thinking of this, Jia Wei and Liu Hong glanced at each other silently, then stretched out the index finger and middle finger of their right hand, made a scissor shape, and then slammed them together.
Seeing this, Liu Hong laughed and said: "Those who know me, Gongyan also!" ”
The plan was set, and Liu Hong and Jia Wei each led half of the cavalry and foot soldiers to surround the county guard from the left and right directions.
At this time, Xu Sheng, the king of Yue, still didn't know anything about the raid of Liu Hong and Jia Wei, he rode on a horse, and looked at the big Yue king division who was attacking the county guard in front of him and the thief army who didn't know Wang Hua and resisted, and said for a long time: "Prime Minister, the widow asked you, what time is it." ”
Xu He glanced up at the sky and replied: "Back to the king, there is no sundial, and the specific time is not clear, but the minister looks at the sky, it should be around noon." ”
"Oh? When did the two generals, Xu Yan and Jiao Da, go? ”
Although these words did not sound salty or light, but when they fell on Xu He's ears, they were like a thunderbolt at first sight, and they seemed to be carrying Mount Tai on their backs, and they felt that their own king was unfathomable and the dragon was awe-inspiring; But he is not easy to answer this matter, because Xu Yan and Jiao Da, the two generals, have just gone to the city to collect the soldiers, which is like herding sheep, and the sheep have not eaten a few mouthfuls of grass, so they drive them back to the circle, how can the sheep be happy? And the purpose of collecting the soldiers was to return to the county government that had not been attacked for a long time. The most important thing is that in detail, the source is still on his own king.
But as a courtier, how can you speak out about the king's faults? This is especially true for Xu He, who has regarded Xu Sheng as a virtuous monarch and a wise lord. But before he could think about how to answer decently, he heard the sound of Dada's horses' hooves in the distance, and his heart was suddenly happy, and he said with a smile: "King, aren't the two generals here?" ”
"Hmm."
Xu Sheng, the king of Yue, said that he knew, but he did not look at it like Xu He, occupy his position, and raise his anger, this king has been a long time, especially under his wise leadership, after winning the great victory in Shanyin, he seems to really have a little more graceful and luxurious, and his words are much calmer than in the past.
As the sound of horses' hooves got closer and closer, the smile on Xu He's face gradually faded, and he looked at the galloping cavalry, and was a little puzzled: how could this cavalry holding a long lance and galloping on a horse look murderous, and his own war horse seemed to be much taller, and it seemed a bit like a horse in the north?
"It's not good, the king is leaving!" Xu He suddenly came to his senses and shouted, wanting to do the act of being a loyal minister and protecting the lord.
However, King Yue was unmoved, still indifferent, and criticized Xu He very unhappily: "Prime Minister! You are the pillar of a country, shouting like this, it is really a loss of my dignity! ”
Xu He was anxious like an ant on a hot pot, thinking of the story of Confucius being trapped and eating improper meat, he immediately turned his heart sideways, stepped forward and pulled King Yue's sleeve and said: "King, look, look at it!"
King Yue turned his head impatiently, thinking that this Xu He is really becoming more and more unruly, although he is his elder, but he is also his own courtier, don't you understand the truth of the monarch as a minister?
But after only looking back, King Yue changed his expression, looked at these cavalrymen who were rampage without the slightest sign of slowing down, and exclaimed: "This ...... Where did this cavalry come from?! ”
Xu He was so anxious that he was about to cry, when was this time, and he was still entangled in these trivialities: "King, you are an enemy or a friend, and you must flee for your life!" ”
"It's extreme, it's extreme!" King Yue nodded his head a few times, pulled the reins of the horse, turned the horse's head, and fled to the rear, while shouting for help, "Escort, someone is coming......
Prime Minister Xu He saw that the king of Yue retreated, and hurriedly turned over his horse and followed behind. The Vietnamese soldiers listened to the shouts of their own kings, and they all gathered when they heard the sound, and the general Xu Chang, who commanded the army to attack the city, also noticed that the situation was wrong at this time, and also ordered the soldiers to suspend the siege of the city to resist this group of cavalry of unknown origin.
However, the avenue of the county guard's mansion was not very wide, and the Vietnamese army in order to besiege the county guard's mansion, the battle line was extremely long, and it was inconvenient to upload and distribute, and the sound of horses' hooves was as dense as a drum at this time.
However, the Vietnamese army was in chaos, and the soldiers were buzzing around like headless flies, some of them could not see the situation ahead clearly, or they were pushed by the strength of the crowd, and they were squeezed into the main road by mistake, blocking Jia Wei's way.
After the horse knocked over a few soldiers, the speed slowly slowed down, Jia Wei was in a hurry, once the cavalry lost its mobility, it was not as good as the ordinary foot soldiers, and when he landed the long lance, he stabbed forward, and after picking up a Vietnamese sergeant, he shouted: "Death to those who stand in my way!" ”
Seeing this, the cavalry behind him also shouted: "Death to those who stand in my way!" "In his hand is also a spear flying.
After calling out several times in this way, the Vietnamese soldiers knew where the danger was, and they were driven by the desire to survive and squeezed out desperately, so that they could make way for Jia Wei and them.
But this delay wasted at least a tenth of a moment, Jia Wei looked again, the richly dressed middle-aged man was nowhere to be found, and he sighed in his heart at the moment, although he didn't know who this middle-aged man was, but looking at his clothes, he knew that even if he was not the thief Xu Sheng, he must be the high-level of the thief army.
Shaking his head and dispelling these useless thoughts in his mind, Jia Wei pointed straight ahead and said loudly: "Form a cone formation, charge with me." ”
The cavalry behind him repeated Jia Wei's order and conveyed it, and after a while, with Jia Wei as the tip of the cone, the cavalry on both wings as the cone, and the infantry as the cone, they stabbed fiercely into the flesh and bones of the Vietnamese army.
Surrounded by the Yue soldiers, the king of Yue went all the way to the east, and came to the cross road on the right side of the county guard's mansion, and saw that the thief army was under the obstruction of the king's division, and the speed of the march gradually slowed down, so he first breathed a sigh of relief, and then said angrily: "The widow will punish these thieves to the palace to relieve the hatred in my heart!" ”
"By the way, the prince, the widow asked you, where is the prime minister?"
Xu Chang was stunned when he heard this, and replied suspiciously: "Father, isn't the prime minister with you?" ”
"If you are with the widow, the widow will ask you?" King Yue was about to lose his temper when he saw it, but fortunately it was Xu He's voice from the periphery: "Your Majesty, the old minister is here." ”
Then Xu He rode a horse and squeezed in in embarrassment, King Yue saw this, and was about to say some words of concern with reproach as a coat, when he suddenly heard some slight strange sounds in his ears, his eyebrows furrowed, he turned his head to look at the upper side of the crossroads, and then his expression was shocked, his left hand covered his chest, and his right hand pointed to the army that suddenly appeared from the corner in front of him, and said tremblingly: "This ...... Where did this cavalry come from? ”
"Hurry back! Hurry back! ”
In another order from the king of Yue, these Yue pawns, who had finally gathered together, retreated back, and Liu Hong saw this scene in the distance, laughed and said: "The rats are gone!" Yanchang, pick up your horse lance! ”
Liu Wei obeyed the order, and raised the horse lance high and obliquely, and at the top of the horse lance, there was a big eared fat head and a terrifying face of the six yang leaders, and this was also the reason why Liu Hong and them were late.
Although the distance is still far away, King Keyue still recognizes the owner of this head at a glance, except for the general Jiao Da who sits down, who can have such a fat head?
"These thieves, bad lone generals!" King Yue cursed while urging the horse to retreat, but Liu Hong's next words almost made him fall off his horse.
"Xu Sheng gave the head, and he didn't descend quickly!"
"Xu Sheng gave the head, don't descend quickly!!"
"Xu Sheng conferred the head, and he didn't drop !! quickly"
“……”
In this shout, many Vietnamese soldiers believed it and threw down their weapons, or squatted on the side of the road trembling and begging to surrender, or rushed to seek a chance of survival; As for who the head of Liu Wei's horse lance is at the top, it doesn't matter, after all, whether it is Xu Sheng, the king of Yue, or General Jiao Da, these pawns at the bottom are unfamiliar to them, not to mention that people have a herd mentality, and the more dangerous this is, the more so.
King Yue stared at this moment and opened his mouth, with a look of lips about to crack, he didn't expect these thieves to be so shameless, if they were allowed to shout like this, their more than 10,000 soldiers would probably be defeated without a fight.
Thinking of this, the king of Yue also shouted loudly; "The widow is here! The widow is here! Don't listen to the nonsense of thieves! ”
The guards around him also shouted when they saw the situation, but as soon as they opened their mouths, they received a scolding from King Yue: "Bastard!" Shout 'King'! ”
