Chapter Ninety-Seven: Turning the Tiger Away from the Mountain

"Desperately hold on to Ah ......" The digging voice was louder, and he suddenly coughed violently.

"Your Majesty, as analyzed before, the weakness of Weihou is still in the rear." Suo Qiu stood up and continued to explain for his master, "As long as Jin and Qin succeed, the danger will naturally be lifted. ”

"That's true." The dug tutu who had calmed down picked up the conversation, "As soon as Wei Hou raised his troops, we got the news and made arrangements immediately. In Mengjin, he dragged him for nearly ten days. After careful calculation, the soldiers and horses of the Marquis of Jin have already killed Taihang Mountain, and the Qin people should have received the holy decree. Therefore, there is not much time left for Wei Hou. ”

After listening to the tirade of digging out, Ji Yijiu's heart was obviously relieved, and his frowning eyebrows loosened a lot: "How sure is Zhou Zhao about defending the city that day?" ”

This sentence is a bit of a weak question. Originally, he still had a lot of control, but the battle under the city was defeated, not only was he injured, but Zheng Jun was also greatly injured. Now in this situation, he is really a little bottomless.

In order to cheer up Ji Yijiu, he said something good: "Luoyi Wangcheng is as solid as gold, except for Hojing, there is no other place in the world." When the Holy Sixth Division first came out of the pass, the city was empty, and that was the only chance they could break through. Fortunately, the widow arrived in time, which ruined their good deeds. Now, Wei Hou is probably punishing Saint Sima for missing the opportunity! ”

"Haha, that's good, that's good." Ji Yijiu's heart was completely relaxed, "Then you can recuperate with peace of mind, and the city head will ask Lord Siying." ”

The words of the digging and fabrication are not entirely unreasonable. Siege warfare in the early Spring and Autumn period was not common, and it was still popular to have a frontal hard anus on the plains. Therefore, Wei Hou was indeed more angry that Sheng Sima did not seize the opportunity. Since Lu Ban, who invented the ladder, was born more than 200 years ago, they only had a few tricks such as hitting the city gate if they wanted to break in.

Wei Hou was anxious, so he could only bite the bullet, but under the suppression of Suoqiu's bow and arrows, rolling wood and stones, he had little effect. Seeing that time was short, the old man had no choice but to write an essay and send someone to the city to read it aloud.

In the article, he praised Dutu first, saying that although Zheng Bo and Wei Hou are very different in age, they are two heroes in the world. Then the conversation changed, since it was a double hero, it should be like a nobleman, and it should go out of the city to fight head-on. In the end, of course, the war book was attached, and those who did not dare to fight were cursed and humiliated.

Wei Hou's method of agitation can be said to be well versed in the psychology of the Spring and Autumn Period. Most of the officers of the two battalions of Huben and Longxiang were the sons of nobles, and after listening to the text, they all geared up and shouted that they would fight for honor. Even Suo Qiu, a businessman who didn't care about any sense of honor, felt that he couldn't hold his face. Although he knew that the procrastination trick was enough to deal with Wei Hou, he still couldn't help but ask for instructions.

"Holy Lord, Wei Hou used vicious words, and everyone in the army said that they needed to fight to set the record straight."

Digging Tu lay on the couch with his eyes closed, not looking at Suoqiu: "Won't you stabilize the army's heart?" ”

"Everyone is indignant, I'm afraid I can't suppress it!"

"Are your wings stiff now? If you are widowed, you will do it! Digging Tu turned his head, with anger in his eyes, "Those who leave the city without the order of the widow, behead!" ”

Suo Qiu shrank his neck, remembering Xian Ke, who had been demoted some time ago, and didn't dare to say anything more.

In short, Wei Hou has made a lot of calculations, but he can't count that Dutu is a fake nobleman. As a modern person, he will never accept the desperate behavior of the Spring and Autumn aristocracy in order to disagree. Although when he used to read history books, he also admired the character of the ancients who could not be killed, but in order to win the final victory, he had to calm down and play with intrigues.

In the next few days, Wei Hou's side was surprisingly calm. He was very vigilant when he was able to get out of bed, and the experience of the long struggle had taught him that the old man could not sit still. So he didn't care about recuperation, and patrolled around every day, for fear that there would be a loophole and be caught by the enemy.

One evening, Di Tu was looking at the Holy Sixth Division at the head of the west city, when suddenly there was a commotion on the streets under the city. He chuckled in his heart and hurried down to check.

It turns out that the royal family is not worrying. They themselves have no ability to resist the enemy, but they all ridicule Xin Zhou Zhao for being a coward. A royal nobleman with the false title of Shao Sima got into a fight with a patrolling Zheng Guo officer for this reason. After the two escalated, they drew their swords and faced each other. Within a few moves, the royal nobleman was hit by a sword and lost his life.

When the dug arrived, the officer had already removed his armor and knelt on the ground. He put his sword above his head with both hands, and solemnly pleaded guilty: "The sin of the people who killed the royal family is unforgivable, please give death to the saint!" ”

"You, you, what are you talking about!" He stomped his feet in anger, "Why fight with your life!" ”

"Ministers who have been loyal to the Zheng family for generations, and those who insult the Holy One will be punished! Get what you want now, die without regrets! "Say that, kill yourself immediately. As soon as he wanted to pull it, he was already splashed with blood.

The onlookers were automatically divided into two factions, Zhou and Zheng, and each of them was angry, and it seemed that it was about to turn into a group fight. The digging was intent on stopping, but before it could heal, the weak voice was quickly drowned out by the noise. At this time, Suo Qiu had also arrived, and he shouted: "Whoever does it again, the military law will deal with it!" ”

Everyone was taken aback, and there was silence for a while. Zheng people were shocked by the boss, and many people began to retreat. However, Zhou Ren quickly reacted, and instead of buying Suoqiu's account, he kicked his nose in the face and took the opportunity to take advantage of it.

Zheng Ren saw many comrades-in-arms being beaten, and finally couldn't bear it anymore, and fought back explosively. The scene is completely out of control!

"Holy Lord, what should I do?" Sochu was also blinded.

"Quickly deploy troops to suppress!"

"The main forces are all on the head of the city to defend against the Holy Sixth Division, and they can't move!"

He was in a hurry: "The Holy Sixth Division is in the west of the city, so quickly transfer the guards of the eastern city wall!" ”

"No! Please retreat to the city wall for safety, and the minister will come back immediately! Sochul got on his horse and galloped away.

At this time, the sky is getting darker and darker, and instead of stopping, the crowd of people fighting is increasing. The battle has evolved into a dogfight.

Just as he was digging his heart, a string of torches swam down the avenue like a dragon. The dragon head lunged at the crowd. In the midst of a scream, the two sides of the black-pressed melee were finally separated.

Knowing that it was the guards who arrived, he immediately rushed to the scene again. At this time, the people on the front line of the melee were disarmed and controlled by the side of the road. He glanced at it and saw that there were a lot fewer people.

"Whose accomplices are the mob that ran away?" Dig asked sharply. Seeing that no one answered, he pointed to the head of the Zheng army who was fighting. The guy looked left and right in frustration and muttered, "Our team is basically here." ”

Dig and ask Zhou people. A few of the leading necks were straightened, and they replied coldly. Suo Qiu drew his sword and stepped forward, and threatened viciously: "This is Zhou Zhao, who has just been canonized by your Son of Heaven, and those who dare to be rude will be killed!" ”

One of the cowards softened his attitude and replied cooperatively: "There is a group of people who are not from Zhou, and we are not very familiar with each other. ”

"What kind of coaxing if you're not familiar?" Sochu felt that the man was lying.

"We Zhou people were talking about the current situation by ourselves, but they suddenly came over to join in the fun, and repeated our complaints loudly, which provoked your patrol." The man sighed and complained, "They were the ones who did it first, but after the fight, these people didn't know when they secretly ran away." ”

"Who the hell is it?" Digging Suddenly smelled of conspiracy.

"It's really not Zhou." Another said, "These people are from other places, and they travel all year round. ”

"Wandering around?" Digging Tu seemed to remember something, "What do these people do for a living?" ”

"Divination, will use witchcraft to exorcise evil spirits......"

"Something is wrong!" Dig suddenly realized, "Outsiders, can divinate witchcraft, this is not Wei Wu!" ”

When Suo Qiu heard this, he was shocked: "East of the city! Cheng! Tune the tiger away from the mountain! ”

"Quick! Fast! The East Guard of the city immediately returned to defense! He was so anxious that his arm pointed straight to the east. At this moment, the sound of killing outside the western city wall was everywhere, and countless rockets swooped down on the city like moths. Obviously, the Holy Sixth Division tried to pin down the Zheng army to the west in order to respond to the movement in the east.

At this point, the truth is self-evident, this is obviously a riot caused by Wei Hou using the Wei Wu in the city.

Suo Qiu ran all the way to the east gate, and suddenly broke out in a cold sweat. I saw that the city gate was wide open, and a few soldiers who remained behind fell to the ground crookedly. The rebellious Guardian Witch did not expect to be exposed so soon. Seeing that the situation was not good, they were also anxious, and began to wave torches desperately outside the city.

Sochul looked out and saw countless ghosts shaking in the dark night. In order not to startle the snakes, this sneak attack team didn't even light the torches, and rolled towards the east gate by the moonlight.
