Chapter 439: Emergency Military Situation
Although the moonlight is bright, there are still many torches planted on the city of Yanzhou, and the firelight illuminates the city at the same time, but also illuminates the city.
From a distance, you can see groups of black-clad and black-armored soldiers patrolling back and forth, shocking Xiaoxiao inside and outside the city.
Zheng Tianshou, the white-faced Langjun, personally led the soldiers to patrol the city, he was the only one left among the three people in Qingfeng Mountain, the brocade tiger Yanshun and the bantam tiger Wang Ying were instructed by Song Jiang to kill innocents indiscriminately, and were hit by the current prince and took his life. Only he escaped his life, and later Song Jiang wanted to steal the prince's book of heaven, and was cut into two pieces by Li Kui with an axe.
Originally, Zheng Tianshou felt that he would be instructed by the prince to give his life somewhere, but he didn't expect that the prince didn't hold a grudge against him for following Song Jiang, but instead made him the commander of the Liangshan veterans. Therefore, Zheng Tianshou has always been grateful and very serious in his work. While the other commanders assigned their men to patrol the night, he personally led the men to patrol the night.
"Who?"
When Zheng Tianshou was leading his own soldiers on patrol, he heard the guards at the city gate suddenly shouting, and hurriedly led his own soldiers over.
"I'm Langyan Ming, and I'm on the orders of General Lu to recruit Fangdang tribe, and I have an urgent military situation to inform General Lu."
At the city gate where Zheng Tianshou arrived, he saw two party members standing under the city on camels.
Although the fire of the city shines, you can only see the silhouette of the people, and you can't look down on the appearance.
Zheng Tianshou pulled out a torch at the head of the city, threw it in front of the two, and shouted, "Raise the torch and let me see." ”
The torch fell to the ground, splashing a puff of sparks, and the fire was much smaller, but it was not extinguished. The grease on the torch is difficult to extinguish until it has been burned.
Lang Yanming could see Zheng Tianshou's face under the city, knowing that Zheng Tianshou was one of the five thousand commanders, he didn't dare to say more, and held the torch next to his face. shouted: "Lang Yan Yan name to meet General Zheng." ”
Zheng Tianshou also saw the name of the Langyan Rock clearly, and asked the soldiers in the city to put down the two hanging baskets.
Lang Iwana and the guards dragged the rope and squatted in the hanging basket, allowing the guards at the head of the castle to pull it up.
At the head of the city, Lang Yanming arched his hand and said, "The villain has seen General Zheng." ”
Zheng Tianshou said: "Why did you only go back to the city at this time?" ”
Lang Yanming replied: "The Fangdang tribe has decided to return to Daliang, and I was about to come back, but King Renli of Xixia Shu brought soldiers and horses to the Fangdang tribe. I was afraid that they would find out, so I had to wait until now to come back. ”
Zheng Tianshou said excitedly: "King Shu? A prince must be able to bring a lot of soldiers and horses, right? ”
A group of soldiers are also gearing up, after they enter the Western Xia. attacked Weizhou and Yanzhou, but they didn't meet any decent opponents, but they almost forgot how to fight.
Lang Yanyan said: "I brought less than 20,000 people, they retreated from Xingqing Mansion and prepared to attack Yanzhou. ”
The soldiers heard less than 20,000 people. I couldn't help but show a look of disappointment on my face.
Zheng Tianshou didn't pay attention to the 20,000 people at all, shook his head and said: "It turns out that he just escaped from the hands of the prince, this guy didn't want to hide anywhere, but he sent it to the door again, this time he should be in a catastrophe." General Lu should have rested a long time ago, and I don't know if you can see him if you go now. If it's just that, it's not too late for you to report it tomorrow morning. Even if we don't prepare. It is difficult for only 20,000 people to capture Yanzhou, not to mention that there are no trees outside, and it is difficult for them to build siege equipment. ”
When the guards on the side heard this, they couldn't help but look at Lang Yan Yan anxiously. His identity is not enough. But he didn't dare to speak indiscriminately.
Lang Yan Yan Ming also knew his anxiety, and arched his hand: "The Renli camp is shabby, and the Fangdang tribe is ready to attack the Renli camp at night with us, as long as we seize this opportunity." You will definitely be able to defeat the soldiers and horses. Otherwise, the Fangdang tribe will be driven by Renli tomorrow to pile up dirt and form a mountain to attack the city, and they have already promised to return to Daliang. It's a pity that we were killed. ”
Zheng Tianshou was also noncommittal, nodded and said, "If this is the case, you should go and ask to see General Lu." Ben will be duty, so I won't send you. However, there are still soldiers patrolling the city, so I will send two of you to General Lu. ”
When Lang Yanyan heard this, he hurriedly said, "Thank you, General Zheng." ”
Even with two soldiers under Zheng Tianshou, the group was interrogated twice by the soldiers patrolling the city before arriving at the yamen in the center of the city.
Lu Junyi, who was guarding at the gate, saw the group stop in front of the yamen and asked, "What are you doing here?" ”
Lang Yanming arched his hand and said: "I have an urgent military situation to inform General Lu, and I also ask the two of you to report it." ”
The pro-soldier also knew the name of the wave, and frowned: "General Lu has long been rested, are you sure it is an emergency military situation?" ”
Lang Yanming nodded, "Yes." ”
The soldier thought for a while and said, "Then I'll go and report, you have to be careful, if you lie about the military situation, you can ask the military law to serve." ”
Lang Yanming smiled: "I know. ”
Seeing that Lang Yan's name was so determined, the soldiers had no choice but to turn around and go in to report that he was not qualified to know the emergency military situation.
Lu Junyi was already asleep, and when he heard the soldiers outside begging to see him, he could only get dressed and come out, and asked, "What's the matter?" ”
The pro-soldier arched his hand and said: "Lang Yanming said that there is an urgent military situation. ”
When Lu Junyi heard this, he nodded and said, "Bring him in." ”
"Yes"
After the soldiers outside the gate left, Lu Junyi said to the soldiers outside the door: "You go and call Yan Qing to come." ”
"Yes"
Lang Yan Ming and Yan Qing came to Lu Junyi's house almost at the same time, although they were woken up from sleep, Yan Qing was not a little confused, nodded to Lang Yan Ming, and entered the house together.
Lu Junyi saw the two of them coming in together, so he asked, "What emergency military situation do you have?" ”
Lang Yanyan said: "After the villain received the general's order today, he went to the city to find the contact person of the Fangdang tribe, and then went to the Fangdang department. The leader of the Fangdang tribe had promised to return to Daliang, and when the villain was about to come back to report the news, King Renli of Xixia Shu led 20,000 soldiers and horses to flee from Xingqing Mansion, and was in the Fangdang tribe, blocking me inside. In order to avoid Renli's sentry, I had to wait until late at night to sneak out. ”
"This is an emergency military situation?"
Lang Yanming also heard Lu Junyi's dissatisfaction, and hurriedly said: "Renli wants to drive the men from all walks of life outside the city to pile up dirt and form a mountain to attack the city, and the Fangdang tribe has gathered a thousand people to cooperate with the Liang soldiers and horses to attack the Renli camp at night. ”
Lu Junyi frowned and said, "How do you know that this is not a trap jointly set by Renli and the Fangdang tribe?" ”
When Lang Yanyan heard this, he couldn't help but be stunned. He didn't know Fang Dangjun before, and he really couldn't be sure if Fang Dangjun was acting.
Yan Qing said: "Now that the general trend of Western Xia is gone, and Renli is the general of the defeated army, the Fangdang tribe should know which side to choose." How is Renli's camp set up? ”
Seeing that Yan Qing was helping him speak, Lang Yanming hurriedly said: "The camp is very simple, there are no trees near Yanzhou, and they can't find too much wood. (To be continued)
