At this time in Jincheng, Zhou Gandang kicked several tables in a row, walked back and forth in the study, and scolded non-stop. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

What to scold?

Of course, it's to scold Luo Yi! not only stabilized the situation in Longxi so quickly, trained 100,000 troops, but also abducted the veteran Wang Buchao, and wrote a letter to explain the reason, obviously apologizing, but between the lines, it is all a joke mentality.

Zhou Gandang said angrily: "I have long known that he is not a good thing, he should not have given Longxi to him in the first place, he is still with hard wings, and he dares to rob people with this king." ”

Li Heng smiled bitterly: "At the beginning, we didn't know that we could enter Jiangnan, and we still needed the support of Luo Yi's grain and grass resources." ”

Speaking of grain and grass, Zhou Gandang asked: "What about the 50,000 quintals of grain and grass he promised?" Can someone send it? ”

Li Heng shook his head and said: "Not yet, some time ago he sent someone to say that when Longxi is too peaceful, he will let people send food." In my opinion, I'm afraid it will have to wait until the end of the year. ”

"No way!"

Zhou Gandang said: "Let him send it immediately, not 50,000, but 100,000!" ”

Lakh?

Li Heng said: "He won't agree..." ”

"Now, we are at war with Datang, and there are no extra troops stationed in the counties of Xiliang, so don't offend Luo Yi too much, lest he jump over the wall in a hurry and break the net with us."

"I heard that he has recently recruited several fierce generals, Sun Yu, Zhao Yong, plus Luo Tong and Wang Buchao, he thinks he is a fierce general."

Speaking of Wang Buchao, he poked Zhou Gandang's pain again, his face turned black, and he couldn't wait to kill Longxi immediately and break Luo Yi's body into thousands of pieces.

But just for a moment, he calmed down again and said, "Yes, what you said is right, during the period of the big war, it is indeed not easy to get into trouble with him." ”

"It's cheap..."

After calming down for a while, he said: "Luo Yi is not to be underestimated, he recruited troops in Longxi, and let Solo Fei enter Surabaya Lake, obviously preparing for the big war. We need to be on guard, too. ”

Li Heng said: "But we don't have any extra soldiers and horses now. ”

"Your Majesty, please rest assured, I expect that within three years, Luo Yi will not use troops against us, he will not dare, and he will not do that."

"Why?"

Li Heng smiled: "The reason is very simple, what is he doing with us?" Does he want to be in the west? Don't forget, the king, he is from Chang'an, Li Shimin is trying to arrest him, if he gets Xiliang, won't he directly clash with the imperial court, then isn't he looking for death, we are blocking the arrow for him now, it's too late for him to be happy. ”

In this way, Zhou Gandang felt even more uncomfortable, Luo Yi repeatedly tricked him, and he was also Luo Yi's umbrella...

"How can it be?"

Zhou Gan said: "If it weren't for my army going to Jiangnan and Baihu Pass, I would have sent troops to destroy him!" ”

Li Heng said: "King, those who have achieved great things can not bear what ordinary people can't bear, and I think that it is better to endure it, Luo Yi can provide us with food, and it is not completely beneficial." ”

Zhou Gandang came to sit down, closed his eyes, and didn't speak for a long time...

Li Heng knew that Zhou Gan was very uncomfortable, so he quickly diverted the topic and said: "King, just yesterday, there was good news in Jiangnan, General A Guduo has occupied Yangzhou, defeated 30,000 soldiers and horses of the local government, and has countless burdens. ”

Zhou Gandang opened his eyes and said, "Finally, there is some good news." ”

"Ah Guduo, I'm not worried, I'm still worried about Fu Yan, he led 200,000 troops to Baihu Pass, and I don't know how the war is going. I'm afraid he'll do it again. ”

There has been no news about the battle at White Tiger Pass. Li Heng said: "Don't worry, the king, after I go back, I will send someone to contact Fu Yan and urge Fu Yan to face the battle carefully, don't fall for Xu Maogong's tricks again." ”

"Okay, go ahead, be alone."

"Yes, the minister retired."

Li Heng breathed a sigh of relief and withdrew from the study.

**********

Yanmen Pass.

As soon as the sky was bright, the city ushered in an earth-shattering roar, which frightened all the soldiers defending the city.

Just last night, Chu Feiyan received news that the Qiang cavalry had arrived ten miles away, and this news was a blow to him, so that he didn't sleep all night and stayed on the city tower all night.

At this moment, he heard a loud roar from under the city, and he stood up sharply and looked down.

"Sure enough, it came..."

Chu Feiyan straightened his clothes, took the long knife in his hand, and said, "Come on, give the order, and all the soldiers are ready to defend the city." ”

"Go and find Liu Wancai for me."

"Yes."

Chu Feiyan poked her head out, looked down carefully, and instantly locked on a person, with a feather rubbed on her head, wearing a fur coat, and a filial piety cloth on her head, needless to say, it must be Xiao Yuyuan's son Xiao Chenglong.

Knock knock...

At this time, the sound of war drums came from under the city, and the sound soared into the sky, resounding through the heavens and the earth.

Xiao Chenglong ran out of the military formation, holding a long knife in his hand, his face showed anger, and when he came to the city, he shouted loudly: "The dog thieves in the city listen, come down quickly and lead the death, otherwise when the city is broken, there will be no old and young people left in the city!" ”

"Get out of here, come out and die!"

Xiao Chenglong roared arrogantly, one after another...

Chu Feiyan watched calmly, on the one hand, let the soldiers prepare to defend the city, and on the other hand, give orders to go down, no one is allowed to go out of the city to face the battle, and those who go out to fight without authorization will be punished with defeat.

Under such strict orders, everyone takes them to heart!

Chu Feiyan stood in the middle of the city tower, indifferent to Xiao Chenglong's weak words, and did not respond, just watched quietly. As if I hadn't heard.

It didn't take long for Liu Wancai to come to the city tower, and Chu Feiyan asked, "Liu Wancai, where are your people?" Can you bring? ”

"Brought, brought, all of them are waiting inside."

"Okay, when I have made a great contribution, I will definitely give it to the lord."

Chu Feiyan pointed to the city and said: "qiangren seems to be strong, but in fact, their combat power can only be shown when they are on the grassland, and when they encounter such a tall city, they can only sigh, they have no siege equipment, no experience in siege. If it hadn't been for that, they would have attacked the city long ago. ”

"The person under the city should be Xiao Chenglong, I heard that his martial arts are not under Xiao Yuyuan, he is very brave..."

Crackling and talking a lot, anyway, it's about introducing the enemy army.

Liu Wancai also entered the state, he promised to help defend the city, of course, he hoped to win, after thinking about it, he came up with an idea, and said: "I heard that when the general was in Yincheng, in the face of the siege of the four major families, he used fire oil to retreat the enemy army, but is there such a thing?" ”

Chu Feiyan also happened to be there in that battle, he was Luo Tong's personal soldier, and he saw everyone rushing to the sky with his own eyes.

He smiled and said, "Yes, what do you suggest?" ”

Liu Wancai smiled: "What a coincidence, I happen to have a lot of fire oil hoarded in my house, maybe it can come in handy." ”

"Oh? Is this true? ”

"Seriously, seriously."

Chu Feiyan laughed and said: "Then you have really made a great contribution, with the oil oil, we are no longer afraid of the enemy army." ”

Liu Wancai said: "Then I'll send someone to get it now?" ”

"No, no, no, there's no rush for the time being."

Chu Feiyan said: "They don't have siege equipment today, it is impossible to attack the city, at most, they will bark twice under the city, so they are not afraid." ”

"Besides, we still have nearly 2,000 soldiers defending the city, so why be afraid? It's okay to keep it for a day or two, but when you can't hold it anymore, it's not too late to use fire oil. ”

"Okay, I'll listen to the general."

Xiao Chenglong kept roaring under the city, but his voice was like a stone sinking into the sea, no one paid attention to him at all, and after shouting two pillars of incense, he also felt bored, and he ran back again.

"How can that be, these shrunken turtles?"

After Xiao Chenglong ran back, he vented his dissatisfaction.

His military advisor, named Dong Fan, was not a Qiang man, but wandered from the Central Plains in his early years. Around fifty, he was gorgeously dressed, with a large face, and a beard on the side of his mouth.

Dong Fan said with a smile: "King, the enemy is blocked, and it is expected that we will not dare to attack the city, so they are fearless. I suggest that we withdraw our troops for the time being, and come back when we have the siege equipment ready. ”

"Where do we have siege engines?" Xiao Chenglong asked angrily.

Dong Fan looked at the city wall in the distance and said: "Yanmen Pass seems to be a city with high walls and thick walls, but in fact it has been in disrepair for many years. ”

Xiao Chenglong rolled his eyes and said, "Aren't you talking nonsense, how can we have trebuchets?" ”

Adversity...

Nonsense indeed.

Dong Fan said: "Then let's rush to make the cloud ladder, with the cloud ladder, we can also capture Yanmen Pass." However, we must be fast, and we must rush before the arrival of enemy reinforcements, otherwise it will be much more difficult for us to attack when the enemy's forces increase. ”

Xiao Chenglong did not hesitate and said, "Okay, just listen to you." ”

"Let's go, let's go back to the army, and we'll come back when the ladder is ready."

Xiao Chenglong turned his horse's head, left in the dust, and decisively gave the order to withdraw the army.

Immediately afterwards, 30,000 cavalry, under the leadership of Xiao Chenglong, quickly retreated...

Seeing this scene, Liu Wancai laughed and said: "The general is really clever, and the Qiang people have withdrawn." ”

Chu Feiyan said: "If you can't wait for noon tomorrow, they will come again and hand over all the soldiers in your hands to me, you go back first." ”

"Yes."
