Chapter 114: The Battle of the Royal City (7)

The two used to be in the same Eastern Zhou Principality, one was Ji Gen's minister, and the other was Ji Dan's confidant and favorite general, both of them were brave champions of the three armies but each of them was their master, naturally they were not very dealing, on the surface they maintained a trace of the friendliness of their colleagues, but in private they were constantly fighting openly and secretly, and even had a big fight in a wine shop in the past, and the result of that heads-up was that Lin Fang begged a little cheaper.

"Yes, I am a woman, so I never shed blood or tears; You are not a woman, but your blood has not yet been shed, and your tears have become rivers! Ji Che said mockingly.

Lin Fang stood up suddenly: "If you have three points of kung fu in your hand, you won't be my subordinate!" ”

"Look for death!" Ji Che burst into a shout, raised his long knife, and was about to make a move. He was invincible in the East Monday, but he didn't expect to lose to this milky kid, so this matter has become his biggest taboo, and whoever mentions it will be in a hurry.

Seeing this, Chen Kai hurriedly rode his horse to his side, and said in a low voice: "General, the king's order can't be violated!" ”

Ji Che remembered the explanation of the Son of Heaven before leaving the city: As long as they surrender, they must not kill or injure more, especially the chief general with the troops, and they must bring me back intact. "Hmph, if it weren't for the order of the Son of Heaven to treat the captives well, Lao Tzu would have cut off your head today!" Ji Che said and beckoned the guards: "Tie it up, bring it to the Son of Heaven." ”

Not long after Li Sui set off, a knight in the uniform of the forbidden army caught up: "General Li, General Li!" ”

"You are?" Li Sui turned around and asked.

"I'm a Janissary Scout!" The knight said in a loud voice: "General Wei sent a pawn to report to General Li, and the cavalry of the forbidden army has also opened the camel peak. Prepare to insert into the main road between the camp of the fortified army and the royal city, and ambush Ji Dan's siege force when it returns. ”

"Oh!" Li Sui nodded: "Got it!" ”

"General Wei also said that General Li had to find a way to get Ji Dan's siege troops to withdraw."

"Hmm. We are about to do this, you tell General Wei to set up an ambush with peace of mind. When this is done, I will bring my men to help. ”

"Okay, the pawn is gone!" The knight arched his hand and struck his horse and flew away.

It was only more than ten miles from the first-line gorge to the camp of the two-week army, and the fast horses galloped down. It doesn't take an hour to arrive. Arriving at a wooded area two miles away from the camp, Li then stopped the team and hid, waiting for Wu Qing's scout team to report back information.

War horses have long been brought to the horses to chew. The soldiers also lay on the ground and were silent, and there was silence in the forest, except for the rustle of leaves in the wind and the occasional sound of horses. After a while, the sound of clattering footsteps sounded. Two soldiers dressed in the uniforms of the Zhou Chamber walked into the forest.

"General Lee. General Lee! They whispered softly.

"Here!" Li Sui recognized these people as scouts in his army, so he came out of a dense forest: "What is the situation? ”

"The scouts sent by the enemy outside the camp have all been cut off, and Captain Wu Qing led people to ambush in a bush outside the camp."

"Have you found a place to store your grain and grass?"

"Interrogated from one of the captured scouts, the grain and grass are in a col behind the camp, surrounded by mountains on three sides, and if you want to approach, you must pass through the camp."

"So troublesome?" Li Sui frowned slightly: "How many people are left behind in the camp?" ”

"Fifteen thousand."

"We have such a small number of troops, and it's broad daylight. It seems impossible to break into the camp. Is there a way to get around? ”

"The only way is to climb behind the mountain, but there is a flag high above the mountain. There was also a detachment of about twenty people, and if they were alarmed, they would immediately knock down the flag and send a signal to the battalion. ”

"Twenty people let the wind go? Then kill them! Li Sui's eyes flashed with a fierce light: "Go back and tell Wu Qing that you can only let people go out to guard the main road from the camp to the royal city, and you must not let people come back." ”

"No!" The two took the order and left.

Li Sui turned his head to the guards behind him and said, "Inform the brigade commander and the generals above to come over immediately." ”

The Second Field Army had 2,000 cavalry, so a cavalry division was formed, and the division commander was Jiang Ju; After Ding Li reported to the Second Army, he was assigned to the cavalry division as a brigade commander, and he was also in this team at this time. After receiving the notice, Jiang Ju, Ding Li, and the other four brigade commanders hurried to Li Sui.

Li Sui said in a deep voice: "I just received information that if you want to get close to the granary, you must climb over the hill behind the camp. But there were twenty sentinels on the mountain, so we had to deal with them first. Ben decided to personally bring a team of good men to do this, and you each nominated a few people to come out. ”

Jiang Juan shook his head and said, "General Li is the chief general of the First Army, how can he easily get into danger?" Why don't you let the last general bring someone over! ”

Several brigade commanders nodded in agreement, and Ding Li spoke: "The last general also thinks that it is very inappropriate for General Li to go out in person, and General Jiang, as a division commander, should not do such a small thing, let the last general bring people up." It just so happened that I brought all the members of the law enforcement team here, they used to be the personal guards of the Son of Heaven, and they were very skilled, and we have been training together for several months, and we have already had a tacit understanding, and the final general will only need these twenty people to handle this matter. ”

Li Sui's eyes lit up, yes, the officers of the former law enforcement team were all one to be ten, and it should be certain for them to go up, so he nodded and said, "Okay, I will give you a great credit for completing this matter." Bring a stiff bow for each person and use arrows as much as possible to reduce grappling. ”

"No!" Ding Li was extremely excited after receiving the order, and hurried back to gather people, and he must complete this task beautifully.

On the hill behind the camp for two weeks, an apricot yellow whistle flag fluttered in the wind, which was very eye-catching. Not far away, in the shadow of a boulder, twenty sentries sat on the ground sheltering from the scorching sun, their weapons aside, their leather armor hanging open on their arms, and they were only about to be taken off. Four or five people were napping, others wiping sweat from their foreheads while talking with each other.

"I don't know what General Ji Peng thinks, on such a hot day, let us stay here to sentry, and by the time the guard changes, we will already be jerky!"

"Below is the granary, in case the other party sends a surprise attack it will be troublesome, of course you have to be careful, I think his arrangement is right."

"Whew! How many troops does Wang Cheng have? There are more than 10,000 people, all of whom can't be held on the city wall, how can they divide their teams out of the city and rob the camp? ”

"Yes. The Duke of Eastern Zhou brought an army of 50,000 today, and it is estimated that he is about to conquer the royal city now. ”

"Look at these goods, it's so stuffy, you can actually sleep, it's really blessed!"

"What a blessing! A few of them gambled last night in the quiver, and now they can probably fall asleep even if they sit on the fire. ”

"Huh! There seems to be a noise in the rear, do you hear that? ”

"How? In such weather, even the birds have taken refuge in their nests, and the rabbits have also hid in their holes, and your ears are hot! ”

"I think I heard it, too!"

"No, I'll have to take a look." The captain stood up and said. As the captain of the sentry team, he has a heavy responsibility on his shoulders, and he cannot let go of any suspicion.
