Chapter 278: Agreeing to leave the city
Chapter 278: Agreeing to go out of the city
Nanling City is far away from Changling City, but it is not far away. But with the ambush soldiers left by Liu Tingfeng, the defenders in Changling City never received the news from Chen Baili, and they could never spread the news from Changling City.
Because of this, Gaoshun City, which is a distance away from Nanling City, although there have been earth-shattering things, this earth-shattering place still stays in one city and one county.
Chen Baili didn't know that Gao Shuncheng's Chen Guo's army had won great victories in various senses.
He had been staying in Changling City for almost ten days, until early in the morning, Chen Baichuan finally couldn't help it anymore and sent someone to call Xue Si.
Xue Si was wearing a black robe and black pants, which showed that the news of General Changyun's death had dealt a big blow to him.
"General Xue, it's mine to say this kind of thing to you at this time. But I hope you can understand my mind, General. Chen Baichuan first foreshadowed a period of thoughtless foreshadowing before continuing, "I want to lead my troops to recapture Anling City, and I hope the general will allow it." ”
Xue Si raised his head, his bloodshot eyes were cloudy like a puddle of muddy water, he squeezed out a reluctant smile, and said: "It's not impossible to go out of the city, the general has already given orders, as long as the war in Anling City stops, it's up to you." However, there are tens of thousands of Qing thief soldiers, and with the thousands of people and horses of Lord Chen, it may not be so easy to attack the city, right? ”
Hearing him say the words "Anling City", Chen Baichuan's heart sank first. He had mixed emotions in his heart, I was afraid that Xue Si had already thought that the matter of Anling City was arranged by Chen Baili. Even if he didn't dare to confirm it because of his trust in the general, at least he was already shaken in his heart and doubted Chen Baili in this matter.
However, what he was worried about Chen Baichuan's troops in the back was what Chen Baichuan was worried about.
Chen Baichuan didn't seem to hear the first half of his words, and replied confidently: "At this time, it is estimated that there are not many guards left in Anling City. ”
"Oh? How so? Xue Si looked at Chen Baichuan in surprise, after all, it had not been a few days since the battle in Anling City had subsided, why was Chen Baichuan so sure that there were not many defenders in Anling City?
Chen Baichuan replied: "Because at this time, Liu Tingfeng may have broken back to Gaoshun City with his army. General Xue, I know you have some other thoughts in mind, and you can hear about it. ”
Then, Chen Baichuan explained to Xue Si one by one the huge foreshadowing that Chen Baili had laid in the battle of Anling City.
On the black lacquered table in the hall of the county government, on paper the same color as a parchment roll, a rough map of the entire Anling Province was drawn. Xue Sinai is a person who has been on the battlefield for a long time, and he is assisted by a marching map, so his explanation of Chen Baichuan is of course clear at a glance.
After listening to the words, he smiled bitterly and said: "It turns out that the general still has so many ambushes behind the incident in Anling City, and it is really clever." It is indeed worth exchanging a city of only seven or eight thousand defenders for the stability of the entire Chen State. ”
Chen Baichuan patted him on the shoulder and said: "There must be some misunderstanding here, it is not a matter of a day or two for you to get along with my brother, you will have an understanding of his personality, whether he will sacrifice the lives of the defenders of Anling City, you will give the answer in your heart." If you don't believe the answer in your heart, you don't have to blame him, and when you see him, I will question him with you. ”
Chen Baichuan's words finally took effect, Xue Si put away his bitter face and said, "Let the past pass." For now, let's talk about the adults going out of the city. ”
Chen Baichuan pointed to a small city in the center of Anling Province on the map, which represented Anling City, and said: "If you want to take Anling City, Liu Tingfeng led nearly 100,000 elite soldiers and strong generals, and it took several days. And Liu Tingfeng is not a good person, I think he has already instructed the current guards how to resist the enemy. Therefore, the method used in this attack on Anling City must be surprisingly successful. ”
Xue Si glanced at Chen Baichuan curiously, because Chen Baichuan suddenly stopped when he said this, and didn't continue.
Chen Baichuan waved his hand and went straight out of the door, and the words jumped out of his mouth, and said: "It's surprising that it's strange words, if you make this strange thing clear, what's the meaning of the things in the back?" General Xue should wait and see what happens, and wait for good news. ”
Xue Si looked at his dashing and confident figure in the distance, and the sadness in his heart seemed to be washed away a little.
After leaving the county office, Chen Baichuan walked to a specially opened military camp in the city, where Chen Baichuan's Sichuan army stopped.
At the entrance of the barracks, two soldiers stood guard with muskets, and there was a circle of small people pointing around, obviously very interested in the weapons in the hands of the soldiers standing guard.
During these hours of stay in Changling City, the soldiers of the Sichuan Army were inevitably pulled by their inhumane teaching to shoot targets. After a few days of crackling sounds, the little Changling City couldn't hide things at all, and the prestige of the black pipe spread all over Changling City, and it was also praised by the people with many mouths and tongues as a divine soldier given by the gods.
The people gathered around the soldiers standing guard were naturally watching the "divine soldiers".
After Chen Baichuan walked over, the two soldiers standing guard recognized him as coming, and hurriedly raised their fists in front of their chests and saluted.
The strange posture surprised the people around him. However, when they saw the soldiers with green faces saluting the young men who arrived, they instinctively gave way without warning.
Chen Baichuan smiled and walked into the camp.
The training in the tent was in full swing, and the shouts of the soldiers for training were deafening. Chen Baichuan casually grabbed a patrolling soldier, and after he saluted, asked, "Do you know where General Chu is now?" ”
Xiao Bing was stunned and thought for a while, and replied: "I know, Lord Qiyu, General Chu is now in the target field." ”
The so-called target range is a place where more than a dozen straw targets are erected for soldiers to practice aiming with muskets.
Chen Baichuan has been here several times in the barracks of the Sichuan Army, and he is familiar with going to the target field. He let the patrol soldiers leave and took Lin Jiu towards the target range.
At the target range, the musketeers raised their guns and prepared to shoot.
Hearing only a shout of "shoot", the soldiers pulled the trigger in unison, and the tongues of fire were swallowed. The balls shot out with a violent sound of breaking through the air.
About 50 meters away, there were more than a dozen hideous holes on the straw target.
The "shooting" could be heard as an order from Chu Hui himself, Chen Baichuan followed the sound and looked over, and sure enough, it was Chu Hui standing not far away.
After seeing Chu Hui, Chen Baichuan said with a slap in his face: "I have asked General Xue, if you want, you can go out of the city to fight the Qing thief now." ”
Chu Hui was very excited when he heard this, just as he heard that he could come to Anling Province in the land of Longxing. They didn't come to Anling to live in Changling City, and the opportunity to show their prominence finally came.
