Chapter 43: The Inner Ghost

In the dimly lit room, the generals of Fuzhou were huddled together, their faces solemn. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 info Yang Lian, who surrendered because of the situation, would have been killed a long time ago, and he would have been buried somewhere at will, and there was no tombstone.

It was precisely because he was afraid of death that he surrendered, and now Yang Lian has made it clear that no one wants to let them die. Pan Sen is the leader of everyone, and his official position is also the highest, and he is waiting for Pan Sen to make an idea.

Pan Sen looked at everyone and said, "What are you doing, if you don't go back to prepare, you will have a fierce battle tomorrow." ā€

"Oh, Commander Pan, what are you fighting again, this Tang people are clearly asking me to wait to die, what to attract the enemy, and ambush in Jiacheng, I see, I'm afraid that I won't be able to enter Jiacheng, and I will be killed by the Tang people." Someone retorted.

Pan Sen shook his head and said, "Everyone, you have a lot of heart. I don't think Yang Jiedu is an ungrateful person, if he guards Fuzhou City this time, he will be able to make great contributions, and he will be appreciated by the Tang Emperor in the future, and it will not be difficult to become an official and become a knight. ā€

"This, this! is gone, what official will be added to what knight? The man was in a hurry, constantly signaling to the people around him to persuade Pan Sen.

"That's right, I don't think I took the opportunity to occupy the Jiedu Envoy's Mansion tonight, took Yang Lian, and rescued the Jiedu Envoy." Some people also say that the plan is quite feasible.

Everyone was talking nonsense, Pan Sen just shook his head, and after half a moment, Pan Sen laughed, stood up, signaled everyone to be quiet, and said, "Actually, if you want to come, it is not the best policy to rescue Li Jiedu." ā€

"Isn't it the best policy?" Some people are strange that if Li Jiedu is rescued, he will be able to command tens of thousands of Fuzhou troops, and when the time comes, no one will be able to catch Yang Lian without spitting. At that time, if you want to kill or chop, it's not Li Jiedu who has the final say?

Pan Sen smiled slightly, did not speak, waited for a while, and saw that everyone was very anxious, so he laughed twice and said: "Brothers, I can't hide it, I have been in Fuzhou for many years, but I am dedicated to Wu Yue. ā€

As soon as these words came out, several people's faces suddenly changed, and some people habitually drew knives, but found that there was no knife at their waists at all.

"Brothers, don't panic." Pan Sen waved his hand, signaling everyone to be quiet. These people usually have a bad relationship with Pan Sen, otherwise Pan Sen would not have deliberately rescued them this time, seeing Pan Sen like this, a few people stopped talking, waiting for Pan Sen's next step.

"Although Li Jiedu waited for me a lot, then again, Fuzhou was small and had insufficient troops, so it was impossible to survive at all. Li Jiedu is nothing more than swaying from side to side, relying on Datang for a while and Wu Yue for a while, so that he can survive. However, now everyone has seen the situation in Fuzhou, with the Tang Dynasty inside and Wu Yue outside, it is impossible for Fuzhou to survive alone. ā€

When Pan Sen spoke, many people listened carefully, especially when they heard the last sentence, and many people noticed that Pan Sen said the word "alone".

Someone immediately asked, "Then in the opinion of Commander Pan, what should we do?" ā€

There are people who understand and know Pan Sen's mind, but it's one thing to know, and it's another thing for Pan Sen to say it. Sure enough, Pan Sen smiled when he heard this, and said: "Wu Yue is wide, Datang has entered the army several times, and there is no way to take Wu Yue, we will take root in Wu Yueguo, naturally there is one more backer, and Datang will definitely not dare to attack Fuzhou again." ā€

"That seems like a good note." Someone said with a deep groan.

"It's not bad, I'm waiting to take refuge in Wu Yue, with merit, it will naturally be reused, even if I go to Suzhou and Hangzhou, it will be much stronger than in Fuzhou." Panson laughed.

Several people glanced at each other and felt that what Pan Sen said was reasonable, but it was not enough to take refuge in Wu Yue with just one mouth, someone needed to introduce him, and if he rushed over, he might not be dead. Someone immediately brought it up.

The question is very realistic, and it speaks to the concerns of everyone present.

Pan Sen laughed, rummaged through a corner of the room, took out a letter, handed it to a robe, and motioned for him to open it.

The man knew the words, and after taking it apart and looking at it, Deng Shi was very surprised, and said in a lost voice: "Commander Pan, it turns out that you have already taken refuge in Wu Yueguo." ā€

"Shh Pan Sen motioned to the man to whisper, he had betrayed Li Hongyi a few years ago and secretly took refuge in Wu Yue. Li Hongyi may know about him, but under the pressure of Wu Yueguo, Li Hongyi only suppressed him slightly, so that he could not be promoted.

Pan Sen looked at everyone seriously, bowed deeply, and said, "You are all my relatives and friends, and I hope to keep it a secret about taking refuge in Wu Yue." Tomorrow I am ready to receive the army of Wu Yueguo, and if you are willing, you will join me to welcome the righteous master. ā€

Everyone glanced at each other, and they all felt that under such circumstances, it was impossible for Datang to hold Fuzhou City. The Tang Dynasty is about to be destroyed, how can they go to the funeral? Immediately, a few people stood up and were willing to follow Pan Sen to work for Wu Yue.

Someone made a choice, that is, an example, and others also expressed their positions, Pan Sen was overjoyed when he saw this, and comforted everyone with kind words.

Pan Sen had a plan, since Yang Lian asked him to lead the troops to defend against the enemy, he would plan and lead the troops to defend the urn city. He knew that Yang Lian was attacked suddenly, and it could be seen from the situation in the early morning that he was almost defenseless. In other words, he did not have complete defense facilities, as Yang Lian said, he hoped that Pan Sen and other Fuzhou generals would be able to block Wu Yue's army until noon, and then shrink the defensive line, delay as much time as possible, and wait for the soldiers and horses from Jianzhou to come to help.

Therefore, Pan Sen's plan was that when he took control of the urn city, when Wu Yuejun came, he quickly opened the city gate, led Wu Yuejun into the city, and quickly killed Zicheng. Yang Lian may react, but not so quickly. He had to quickly pass through the city and control the gate of the sub-city before Yang Lian reacted and responded.

If all this goes well, Yang Lian will be arrested sooner or later, even if he takes Li Hongyi as a hostage, it will not help.

In order to better win Zicheng, Pan Sen decided to leave more than 100 people in Zicheng to cooperate with him. Yang Lian does not have many soldiers and horses, and more than 100 people are enough. After Pan Sen agreed with everyone, they all felt that this plan was perfect. Someone once proposed to make a hard supply to the Jiedu Embassy, but considering that there were not many soldiers under everyone's command, and Yang Lian was in the city, there were more than 10,000 soldiers, and many ants bit elephants, so this uneconomical plan was rejected.

After the agreement, Pan Sen immediately wrote a letter, explaining everything in Fuzhou City in code words, and sent someone to send it out secretly.

Outside the city of Fuzhou, the camp of the Wu Yue army.

Bao Xiurang was woken up by the pro-soldiers, he glanced at the pro-soldiers with sleepy eyes, knowing that there was nothing important, and the pro-soldiers would not wake him up. Waiting for the soldiers to bring someone to meet, holding Pan Sen's token in his hand, Bao Xiurang suddenly came to his senses.

"How's it going in the city?" Bao Xiurang asked.

"General Bao, the situation in the city is already in this letter, General Pan asked the humble post to tell the general that he is ready to cooperate with the army at any time and seize the city." Someone answered.

Bao Xiurang took out the letter, saw that it was written in code, and hurriedly took out a booklet from his arms, and looked at the code words for a while, only then did he understand what was written in the letter.

"Good!" Bao Xiu was overjoyed, and Yang Lian took the initiative to give up Luocheng, which was good news for Wu Yuejun, at least Wu Yuejun didn't need to spend more effort and sacrifice more soldiers to attack the city. Once Luocheng is captured, no matter how bad Wu Yue's army is, there will be a city to rely on, even if the Jianzhou soldiers and horses of the Tang army arrive in advance, he will not be afraid.

What's more, Pan Sen proposed a more perfect plan, taking advantage of Yang Lian's unpreparedness, Pan Sen opened the city gate to welcome Wu Yue's army into the city, and captured the sub-city with lightning speed. As soon as he thought that he would be able to capture Yang Lian alive tomorrow and teach the Tang people a lesson, Bao Xiurang suddenly became excited. He immediately said that he knew and would definitely act according to Pan Sen's plan.

Seeing Bao Xiurang's promise, the visitor left in a hurry and went back to tell Pan Sen.

Bao Xiurang heard the good news, but couldn't sleep, he immediately went to find Hu Qing and told him about it. Hu Qing was woken up in the middle of the night, and he was quite dissatisfied, but when he heard about Pan Sen's incident, he was in a happy mood, and in this way, Fuzhou City was in Wu Yueguo's bag. At this time, it was already one watch, Hu Qing ordered to go down, seize the time to rest, prepare the fourth watch to make food, set off on the fifth watch, and start attacking the city at dawn.

Fuzhou City Sandwich City.

Under the moonlight, on the somewhat dim road, Yang Lian was pacing slowly, beside him, Cha Wenhui, who was also sleepless, frowned, and the two of them had their own thoughts.

Cha Wenhui knew that Wu Yue's army had come from afar, and there was a sharp spirit and good morale, and coupled with the problem of time, tomorrow's offensive must be very fierce. Only by surviving tomorrow's offensive can the Tang people survive. But how easy is it to say? The Tang army had only 1,000 soldiers who could fight, and most of the remaining soldiers were wounded, and their combat effectiveness was greatly reduced, and they were not Wu Yuejun's opponents at all.

Yang Lian's decision was not wrong, shrink the defensive line, so that the troops of more than 1,000 people do not have to defend the huge Fuzhou City, and can support it for a long time, only the soldiers and horses of Jianzhou come to help, it is possible to repel the Wu Yue army. It's a pity, where are the soldiers and horses in Jianzhou?

Yang Lian saw that Cha Wenhui frowned, and couldn't help but smile and said, "Cha Liuhou, although the battle tomorrow is difficult, there is no need to worry so much. ā€

Cha Wenhui shook his head and said: "Yang Jiedu, I am only an old man, and I have enjoyed the wealth of the world, but it is a pity that you are young and have not married a wife and had children, which is a pity in the world." ā€

Yang Lian saw that what he said was true, not like a fake, and suddenly remembered the past, and felt a little emotional, and couldn't help but sigh.

Cha Wenhui thought for a while and said, "Defending the city tomorrow, I'm afraid it won't last long, so it's better for you to sneak out of Fuzhou tonight and return to Jinling." As for this Fuzhou City, let me guard it. Even if I die in battle, I will die without regrets. ā€

Yang Lian waved his hand and said with a smile: "Why should the Marquis of Chaliu be so pessimistic. Since I, Yang Lian, want to defend Fuzhou, I will definitely be able to defend it, don't worry, my life is not so easy to lose. ā€

"Could it be that Yang Jiedu already has a good plan in his chest?" Cha Wenhui asked strangely, in this case, Yang Lian actually laughed?

Yang Lian shook his head and said, "Cha Liuhou, in such a situation, what good plan do you have?" ā€

"I don't, so I'm worried." Cha Wenhui smiled bitterly.

Yang Lian was silent, half loud, and then said: "Today's Fuzhou is defending the city, you and I can be said to be life and death together, other days, if you and I still meet, I don't know if Cha Liuhou still remembers today's affection?" ā€

Cha Wenhui laughed, his voice was a little hoarse, he looked at the waning moon in the sky, and said: "Yang Jie is to me, there is a life-saving grace, he meets in the future, Cha will definitely offer sake to repay Yang Jiedu's great kindness." ā€

Yang Lian stopped and looked at him fixedly, the friendship between gentlemen was as light as water, and a glass of sake was enough. "On another day, if I am in trouble and am pointed out by a thousand people, what will happen to the Marquis of Chaliu?" Yang Lian asked again. (To be continued.) )
