Chapter 408 From the secret road, Wang Zhong offered grain, and Cao Xiulu lost the granary
Wang Zhong looked at Wei Lie's army chasing behind him from a distance, and asked in a deep voice: "Brother, although Wei Xian knows that you came to comfort the younger brother, these guys don't know!" They are coming after them, what should we do? ”
Wang Dong laughed, signaled Wang Zhong and the others to be calm and calm, and turned their horses to stop the Lie army. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Seeing Wang Zhong and others from a distance, Wei Lie was overjoyed, and was about to lead troops to capture Wang Zhong, but saw a horse galloping over.
Wei Lie wondered in his heart, so he ordered the soldiers and horses to stop advancing.
Wei Ming, the deputy general of the regiment, stepped forward to stop him, and asked in a deep voice, "Who is coming?" ”
Wang Dong saw that more than a dozen people surrounded him, and hurriedly said: "This general, the villain Wang Dong was sent by General Wei Xian to persuade Wang Zhong. The villain is polite! ”
Wei Ming stared at Wang Dong and asked, "General Wei Xian?" Could it be that he has already taken Shanyang? What is the relationship between you and Wang Zhong? ”
"The general doesn't know that the villain is a merchant from Shanyang City. Today, General Wei raised troops to attack the stolen officials Zhang Ling's brothers (Zhang Ling and Zhang Tong are cousins), and the villain opened the city to welcome the general into the city. As for Wang Zhongmo, he is my cousin. Wang Dong said with a flattering smile.
Wei Ming felt very uncomfortable with his sneer, and snorted coldly, so he forced the guards to escort Wei Lie to the front with a gun.
"Big brother, this person said that he was a merchant from Shanyang City. He dedicated Jiangcheng to Wei Xian, and came to persuade Wang Zhong to surrender. I don't know if it's true or not, but I asked my eldest brother to ask it personally. Wei Ming brought Wang Dong to Wei Lie and said.
Wei Lie looked at Wang Dong and asked, "Do you have General Wei Xian's fuse object?" ”
Wang Dong hurriedly took out a letter from his arms and handed it to the soldier beside him.
After taking the letter, Wei Lie watched it carefully, nodded incessantly, and said to himself: "This stinky boy still let him take the lead, but this time he lost to him!" ”
After reading the letter, he asked Wei Ming to let Wang Dong go, and said to Wang Dong with a smile: "Mr. Wang, my brothers have offended a lot, and I hope you will forgive me." I wonder if General Wang Zhong is willing to do it? ”
Wang Dong hurriedly returned the salute and said: "In extraordinary times, prudence is the right way. Generals must not be anxious. A certain has already comforted Wang Zhong, and he only waits for the general to agree! ”
Wei Lie was overjoyed when he heard this, so he took Wang Dong's hand and said, "Mr., it is a blessing for us. General Wang Zhong abandoned the darkness and returned to the Han Dynasty, which is a blessing for the people and soldiers! ”
Wang Zhong and his soldiers secretly prepared to fight to the death, for fear that Wang Dong would suffer an accident when he went.
As he waited, his uneasiness grew stronger, and he looked very restless on his horse.
Suddenly, a soldier shouted: "General, look, here we are!" Here it comes! ”
What the?
His nervous heart beat even faster, and when he looked up, he saw the team of soldiers and horses coming slowly in the distance, but he couldn't see Wang Dong.
How? Is something really wrong?
He clenched his spear tightly and wanted to lead his troops into battle.
The soldier who saw it shouted again, "General, that great good man seems to be your family!" ”
Wang Dong often does some charity activities on weekdays, but he has won the title of a great benevolent person among the people. It's just that most people don't know about his behind-the-scenes activities.
Wang Zhong watched again, but saw Wang Dong and Na Weilie and others coming together.
The two armies had only been together for more than ten zhang, and Wei Lie stopped the team.
Wang Dong rode his horse to Wang Zhong and said in a low voice: "Brother, I haven't seen General Wei yet. ”
Wang Zhong looked at Wang Dong, then got off the horse, walked to Wei Lie's horse, and knelt down on one knee: "Wang Zhong has seen General Wei Lie. ”
Wei Lie laughed, jumped off the horse, stretched out his hand to hug Wang Zhong, and said: "The general's willingness to abandon the dark and turn to the light is the blessing of my people and the blessing of our soldiers!" ”
There were only a few hundred people left in Wang Zhong's army, and only one percent was incorporated into Wei Lie's army.
However, this Wang Zhong has to surrender to sincerity, otherwise, I am afraid that the grain in Shanyang City will be buried until the Year of the Monkey and the month of the horse, and even to the point of moldy sprouts!
It turned out that when Zhang Ling first arrived in Shanyang, there were many incidents of grain loss in Shanyang City. Wang Zhong suggested to Zhang Ling to make a secret warehouse and hide the grain in the secret warehouse. Although it is said that this dark warehouse is under the granary, except for Zhang Ling and Wang Zhong, there is no one who knows how to get in. Rao is a Jedi for you, and you can't find a way to get in.
No, after Wei Lie entered Shanyang with his soldiers and horses, Wei Xian sat in the hall behind the county government with a sad face.
"Brother Xian, why are you so depressed?" Wei Lie looked at it, okay, why don't you go to greet me, what are you doing sitting here by yourself?
Suddenly hearing a voice, Wei Xian woke up from his contemplation: "Ah!? Big brother, you're here. ”
Seeing Wei Lie coming in, he hurriedly stood up.
Wei Lie stretched out his hand and patted him on the shoulder, and said, "I didn't expect your kid's luck to be so good, this time it's my brother, I lost." ”
"It's just a joke for a while, don't care about it, big brother." Wei Xian obviously wanted to change the topic, and then said: "The governor sent me and others to fetch Shanyang, and his purpose is the grain and grass in Shanyang City. But today, I asked the whole regiment to go through the county town of Shanyang, but I didn't find much food! I found the granary, but there wasn't much food in it! ”
When Wei Lie heard this, he couldn't help but be stunned, and said casually: "Ou! And this kind of thing? I don't know if Wang Zhong knows? ”
Wang Zhong? Could it be the Wang Zhong that Wang Dong said?
Wei Xian's heart couldn't help but move.
Wei Lie saw Wei Xian's brows furrowed, so he said, "Didn't you ask that merchant Wang Dong to persuade Wang Zhong, the deputy general who intercepted us?" I happened to run into him, and your letter to him was in my hands! Well, stop fumbling around! Let's go and ask Wang Zhong together, okay? ”
came to the front hall of the county government, and Wei Lie sent people to find Wang Dong and Wang Zhong.
A short time later, the two men came in.
Wang Zhong knew their purpose, and in order to find a good background for himself, he didn't wait for Wei Lie and Wei Xian to ask, so he said: "The two generals called a certain brother to come, I'm afraid they want to ask about the granary, right?" ”
Granary?
Wang Dong hurriedly asked, "Brother, what granary?" ”
Wang Zhong laughed and explained: "When Zhang Ling first arrived, didn't the county make a few cases of grain theft in the granary? Later, Zhang Ling and I changed the granary. There is not much grain in the granary on the bright side, and the real grain is in the dark silos. And three hundred of my guards and horses are guarding it! ”
All right! It turns out that he still has such a backhand! Thanks to convincing him, otherwise, he would have led his troops out in the middle of the night to harass him, but some of them would have suffered!
Wei Lie and Wei Xian hurriedly held his hand and said, "Thank you so much, General!" ”
Wang Zhong took Wei Lie, Wei Xian and others to the location of the Ming Cang, opened the door of the warehouse, and walked in.
Except for three or five bags of grain in the warehouse, the walls were empty.
Wang Zhong walked to the left side of the warehouse and slapped three times on a stone wall.
I saw that the gable made a "squeak" sound, and slowly moved a space from the corner between the two gables, and a downward step appeared in the ground.
There's room down there.
Wei Lie, Wei Xian and others, and even Wang Dong were stunned by this exquisite mechanism.
When the wall slowly opened, a pit two or three zhang wide was revealed, and a staircase led to the bottom, which looked about ten zhang deep.
Wang Zhong led the way in front with a torch and led the people down.
The curved forks form a circular labyrinth, and from time to time a few soldiers guard the turns.
After walking for about half an hour, they came to a relatively wide place.
……
The Han army attacked Shanyang, and after Zhang Ling was shot dead by Wang Dong, the news was soon brought to Cao Xiu, the guard general of Yanzhou East County, by a few deserters.
What the? Shanyang County lost? Zhang Ling was killed?
What a trust! I think that Zhang Ling used to be a member of his command! How did he get there only three or two years, how could he be so unbearable, that he was shot to death by a businessman?
However, it's okay if Zhang Ling is dead! However, Shanyang County, as an important strategic place of one of its three major granaries, how can it be said that it will be lost? You must take it back, otherwise what if the Holy One blames it?
The more he thought about it, the more angry he became, Cao Xiu slammed the table and shouted: "Come here, pass on the generals' hall to discuss matters!" ”
"No!" The guards on the side gave an order and went down to give the order.
The big and small generals of Dongjun came to the front hall of the mansion and secretly talked about what was going to happen.
After a while, Cao Xiu came to the front hall with his two sons, Cao Yu and Cao Zhao.
Seeing that all the generals had arrived, Cao Xiu said: "The first part of Shanyang of our army was broken by the enemy, and hundreds of stones of grain and grass were lost. Today, I have gone to one of the three granaries in Yanzhou, which is really hateful for the Han army. Zhang Ling, the general of our army, was beheaded by the Han army, which brought our army to shame again. I wonder if the generals have a countermeasure? ”
Zhang Cheng, the chief bookkeeper, said: "General, the old man didn't say this for the death of his son Zhang Ling. The old man thought that the general should be an army to attack the Han army's * city. At this time, the city defenders were still in Shanyang, and the labor army was far away! ”
Zhang Cheng, Zhang Fandi, Zhang Ling's uncle, the official worships the head of the Yanzhou County Government.
A general next to him answered: "Is it possible that the Han Dynasty army only has one city?" Xue Li, the protector of the Han army, is afraid that you all know how powerful this person is! ”
Cao Xiu and the others looked at it together and saw that it was Sima Hufen.
Cao Yu said unhappily: "What about Xue Li? Isn't General Hu afraid of destroying his morale? ”
Hu Fen didn't take Cao Yu's displeasure in his eyes at all, and said to himself: "What the young general said is wrong. The last general is just a matter of facts. The Han army has nearly 20,000 Chen soldiers in Jiyin, Chen Liu's army is nearly 100,000, and the Han army in the entire Yanzhou territory has no less than 120,000 soldiers and horses! ”
"General Hu, don't increase the prestige of others and extinguish our own spirit! The last general is willing to lead an army of 10,000 and capture the city, avenge the revenge of Shanyang. Zhang Cheng walked out behind him, interrupted Hu Fen's words, and said to Zhan.
It turned out to be Zhang Cheng's son, Zhang Jian, and the official worshiped General Fenwu.
Seeing that someone was asking for battle, the generals stepped forward one after another to ask for orders, but only Hu Fen stood still there.
Cao Xiu waved his hand, signaled the generals to be quiet, and then said: "Since this is the case, a certain army will be sent to the city, and then until Jiyin; In addition, 20,000 soldiers rushed to Shanyang to intercept the enemy army in Shanyang. I don't know why you waited? ”
Hearing this, Captain Zhang Cheng in his heart, this is a good opportunity to avenge his nephew!
He hurriedly motioned to his son Zhang Jian to come forward and ask for orders.
It is the so-called father and son are of the same heart. Zhang Jian knew what he meant when he saw his father's appearance, stepped forward, and said, "General, the last general is willing to lead troops to attack Shanyang." First, to regain grain and grass for our army, and second, to avenge my brother! ”
Cao Xiu nodded and said, "It's okay, I will give 20,000 soldiers and horses to your father and son." ”
"Thank you, General." Zhang Jian and Zhang took the token and went down to prepare.
Cao Xiu also made Cao Lin, the king of Juye, guard the eastern county; He also took Zhou Tai, Shi Bao, Tang Zhi, Hu Fen, Wang Zuo, Zhang Cun, Hu Shao, Hu Yu and others as deputy generals, and raised an army of 60,000 to attack the city.
Cao Lin, born to Cao Cao and Mrs. Huan, is one of Cao Ang's brothers. Originally, Juye was his fiefdom, but because it was on the side of the Han Dynasty, there was often friction, so he moved to Dongjun to live.
Also living in Dongjun are Chen Liugong and Wang Cao Jun. Cao Jun, born to Cao Cao and Mrs. Qin, is one of Cao Ang's brothers. After Chen Liu's loss, he fled to live in Dongjun.
Cao Xiu's army sent * city, is Xue Li prepared? What's next? Please read on......
