Chapter 482: Plotting to Pacify Jiangdong (11)
At this moment, the county town of Wangu is full of mottled battle scars due to the defense of Shanyue bandits. Lu Su, Jiang Qin, and Zhou Tai, who didn't know that they had been targeted by Qin Xu, were frowning at this moment as they looked at the group of soldiers outside the city who were almost surrounding the small city they were in.
Originally, the county seat of Wangu was just to resist the thieves of the mountain and build a wooden city according to the advantages of the wide land in front of the mountain, and then it was expanded and strengthened several times, and the waste wood was removed to replace the stone as the base, so it has the current scale. And the city was originally equipped with at least 3,000 soldiers to cope with the mutation. But now the first crop of grain and grass has been harvested, and it is being transported to the hinterland of Yuzhang where the Shanyue people dare not enter lightly, and it coincides with Sun Ce's gathering of the soldiers of the whole county to compete with Lu Bu for the ownership of Yangzhou. Therefore, at this time, in the county town of Wangu, there are actually less than 1,000 troops.
But for these more than 1,000 soldiers, what they have to face now is the Qingzhou soldiers who only have 5,000 soldiers in the front army, how to fight with a force of ten to one? Therefore, in the face of Cao Xing's siege but not attack, blindly preparing for war under the city, and the contempt in his words, even Zhou Tai, who has the most generous temperament, can't help it.
"Don't be annoyed, there must be an ulterior motive for coming to the soldiers, don't be careless, go on the road. Watch me shoot him with an arrow, and the right to relieve your hatred! "Jiang Qin's bow technique has been taught by masters, and he is proud of it, although he doesn't know why Cao Xing's troops, which are obviously ten times his own, will besiege Wangu City and not attack it, but Jiang Qin's fighting spirit is still undiminished. Seeing that Zhou Tai was excited, he was about to go out of the city and fight to the death, so he hurriedly stopped him and said.
"Good!" Although Zhou Tai is fierce, he is not impulsive. As soon as Jiang Qin said it, he spat at the city fiercely, pointed to Cao Xing, who was standing in front of the city, and also carried a huge bow, and said: "Gong Yi and took the head of the thief with one arrow, and after the battle, I will invite you to drink!" ”
"It's decided!" Jiang Qin calmed down and smiled at Zhou Tai. Sideways to take the bow and draw the arrow, contemptuously looked at Cao Xing, who was sitting on the horse and seemed to be unconscious, and was blessed. Reflexively, an arrow shot at Cao Xing, and the corners of Jiang Qin's mouth became more and more arcing as he saw the arrow come out of his hand and hit Cao Xing.
"I can't help myself!" But in the next moment, something happened that made Jiang Qin a little incomprehensible. I saw that Cao Xing, who seemed to be going to become the soul of his Jiang someone's arrow in the next moment, actually snorted lightly. At an incomprehensible pace. After Jiang Qin shot the first arrow, he completed the action of picking up the bow and pulling the arrow and pulling the string to release the arrow in an instant, and the same wolf tooth eagle feather arrow even came first, in a distance of only twenty zhang, from the bottom to the top, and the arrow shot by Jiang Qin collided together, almost hearing and seeing, only after hearing a sharp and thin collision. In the midfield of the two armies, two arrows collided. It burst out of Mars.
"Huh? This...... How can it be? This sudden change in the scene made Jiang Qin and Zhou Tai, who didn't even know martial arts, see the gap between the two. Jiang Qin's archery skills are clever, but don't forget, Cao Xing is a "powerful" character who can make Xiahou Tang deflated with bows and arrows in history, just in terms of archery, even Lu Bu and other masters who can shoot halberds are also praised by Cao Xing, since the Shengong Battalion was disbanded and included in the Linzi City Defense Army, he was directly stationed in Xiapi as the deputy commander of the Qingzhou Army, and actually presided over a should affairs. Jiang Qin chose this way to vent his anger for Zhou Tai, and he should also have this "blow".
"It's time for so-and-so!" Cao Xuan seemed to anticipate the expressions of Lu Su and the others on the city wall, stroked the dark giant bow in his hand, and pulled out three arrows from the quiver behind him with a smile on his lips, and raised the bow in front of the people with such a big grin, leaned back and lay on the horseback, raised the giant bow horizontally, and aimed at the three people on the city wall without any scruples.
"Oh no, flash mob!" At first, when he saw Cao Xuan lying on horseback, he didn't know what he was going to do, but when he saw Cao Xing's actions, Zhou Tai was the first to react, and immediately reached out to pull Jiang Qin and Lu Su away. But no matter how fast Zhou Tai is, he will never be able to compare with the arrows in Cao Xing's hands. Just when Zhou Tai just issued a warning, the three arrows in Cao Xing's hand had already finished and flew like meteors, and when Zhou Tai wanted to block it, it was too late.
"I'm dying!" Zhou Tai was struggling to pull Lu Su and Jiang Qin behind him, and when he saw the arrows shot by Cao Xing, he arrived in front of him, which was the last thought in Zhou Tai's heart after closing his eyes.
"Heck...... Haha...... "The sharp pain struck, but it was not the expected pain of the sharp blade piercing the chest, Zhou Tai just took a few steps back and hit Jiang Qin's body, not to mention the blood on Zhou's body, and there was not even a white spot left on the armor. Zhou Taizheng, who was puzzled, hesitated, but suddenly heard bursts of laughter from the five thousand Qingzhou soldiers under the city, and carefully looked at the three arrows shot by Cao Xing who fell on the ground in front of him, but only saw three bare arrow shafts, which were actually broken arrows.
"Thieves are hateful!" Seeing that this was the case, Zhou Tai did not feel the feeling of the rest of his life, but seemed to be on fire in his eyes. This feeling of being teased is even more uncomfortable than killing yourself. Zhou Tai, who was about to erupt fire in his eyes, immediately rushed down the city wall with his knife and chopped the laughing people in the city's soldiers into pulp to relieve his hatred.
"Stay at peace, the enemy will be a radical tactic. And it seems that the soldiers are several times larger than mine, but they besiege this small county town without attacking, there must be something else to ask for! We just need to stick to it, and we must not act rashly. Seeing that Jiang Qin couldn't hold Zhou Tai several times, Lu Su said with a straight face: "Moreover, the county seat of Wangu is only fifty miles away from Yuzhang, Gongjin will definitely not sit idly by and watch us in trouble, and there will definitely be some action, and the lord has also heard that he is coming north, so no matter what the other party wants, what we have to do is to wait for help according to the city!" Youping, don't be brave for a while! ”
"This ...... Hum! And let it be arrogant for a while. Lu Su, who is the Cheng of Wangu County, is a generous person, and he is not proud of his family on weekdays, nor does he despise martial artists as a literati, so he is quite respected by Jiang Qin and Zhou Tai. Although Zhou Tai is still on fire now, he can barely listen to Lu Su's words. He glanced at Jiang Qin and said hatefully.
"Listen to the soldiers in the city!" It was easy to persuade Jiang Qin and Zhou Tai in Lusu to temporarily extinguish the idea of going out of the city with Cao Xing. But suddenly after hearing a slight commotion from the Qingzhou soldiers led by Cao Xing outside the city, more than a dozen loud-voiced sergeants shouted in front of the battle: "The rebel Sun clan has raised troops in vain, disturbed the state and county, poisoned the living beings, and caused the soldiers to rise again." Li Min suffered. Today, there is a special guard of the imperial court, the general of Zhengdong led the Xuzhou assassin history, and the Marquis of Wuting Qin. He was ordered to march south and hang the people to fight crimes, so as to deter the subordinate. Sun Ce was restrained when he heard this, and Zhou Yu was at a loss when he heard it. This small county of Wangu. The city of Pu'er was supposed to fight to capture Er's and wait for a small night, but General Qin's body suffered from the suffering of the soldiers and civilians in the city, and Lang'er and others were also deceived by the Sun family, and it was not their intention to fight. Linhuai Lusu, Jiujiang Zhoutai, Shouchun Jiang Qin, are also the world's heroes. Therefore, it is a special life. Wait for the early acquaintance of the day, and open the city to surrender. If you still resist stubbornly, on the day the city is broken, the people will suffer, and you will be guilty of it! ”
"Fart! Fart! Fart! "Jiang Qin Zhou Tai was originally born as a thief, and he believed in righteousness first, listening to the words shouted by the Qingzhou soldiers, he had a lot of contempt for Sun Ce, and even if his face was red, Zhou Tai was so angry that he slashed the nine-ring big knife in his hand on the wooden pillar on the top floor of the city wall, and stared at Cao Xing, who was looking upwards with a good look, as if he wanted to swallow it alive.
"The enemy wants us to mess up! Gongyi, Youping, don't be fooled! Lu Su is not like Jiang Qin and Zhou Tai who only listen to the words of the general text and openly despise the Sun family, as a wise and honest Zhou Yu is not much weak, but his temperament is honest Lu Su, but he heard the other meaning in these words. But when he heard it, he heard it, but Lu Su was unmoved. Although Lu Bu has been spurned by the world since before, and now he is gradually praised by the people because of the stability of Qingzhou and Xuzhou, for Lu Su, this cannot be a reason to summon himself immediately. What's more, now each is its master, and no one can say how much water is in these words. And Qin Xu's name, Lu Su has long heard of it, whether it is the legend of the beginning, the weirdness of the sudden rise, what can make Lu Su remember it in his heart, but it is the legend that when someone Qin is in danger, he often uses strange dangers, and every time it is always beyond everyone's expectations, even this time Sun Ce attacked Fuguan with the momentum of victory, but in the end it was still in vain. Let Lu Su have no idea what kind of "conspiracy" Qin Xu, who has not yet appeared, to be honest, he has no bottom in his heart. Therefore, at this moment, even if the text is sincere and the good words are said to the sky, it is difficult for Lu Su to relax his vigilance and try his best to stabilize the emotions of Jiang Qin and Zhou Tai.
Qin Xu actually didn't think that he would achieve his goal with just a few words. The intention of this is more to make the hearts of the few defenders in the county town of Wangu become chaotic because of the lack of reinforcements for a long time, and it is best to let Jiang Qin and Zhou Tai "break free" from the constraints of Lu Su and provoke them out of the city, then they can send Dian Wei, the "big killer" who has never shot before, to find an opportunity to take a cold shot and capture these two people in one fell swoop. Of course, it is best to be able to surrender on the spot and the two who are still unwilling at the moment, even if they can't surrender, they can also give the Sun army a big blow, and they can count it in one fell swoop!
I have to say that Qin Xu's manipulation of people's hearts, although he is not as good as Cao Cao and Liu Bei and other heroes of the time, with the aura of pig's feet, but because of the evaluation of Jiang Qin and Zhou Tai in the historical records 1,800 years later, Qin Xu can often prescribe the right medicine at critical moments.
Jiang Qin Zhou Tai is different from Lu Su, who is good friends with Zhou Yu and has great kindness to Sun Ce, the two are born as thieves, although they have good character and strong combat power, but they are still because of their background, plus Jiang Qin's yellow hair and blue eyes, Zhou Tai's appearance is vicious, and they are not very good at Sun Ce's eyes, but the two of them have been aiming to make some names in this Sun Clan's military situation since they took refuge in Sun Ce. Now that he has been insulted like this, he is in an extremely unfavorable situation, and he has been waiting for Yuzhang's reinforcements from fifty miles away for a long time, in this case, it is not easy to maintain a fighting heart, where can Lu Su be persuaded with a few words?
"Mr. Zijing is polite, but now our army is outnumbered, the situation is dangerous, the main army is nowhere to be found, and the reinforcements of the Zhou army have been delayed. It's better to ask Mr. Zijing to lead the troops to sit in the town, and watch my two brothers go to do a fight with that guy first! The speaker was Jiang Qin, who was still persuading Zhou Taimo to be impulsive just now, which shows how excited these two brothers have been now.
"This ......" was just Lu Su's stunned effort, but Jiang Qin and Zhou Tai didn't wait for an answer, turned their heads and went down the city wall. In this case, even if Lu Su is forced to stay, it is estimated that it will have no effect, and in the end, he can only take a deep look at the empty official road in the direction of Yuzhang, and the dense Qingzhou soldiers under the city at this moment, and he doesn't know what he thinks, only a sigh. (To be continued......)
