Chapter 544 Li Mi slipped away
In the second year of Huangtai, the third year of Yining, in January, Li Jing, the general under King Wanhe of Liang, sent the Empress Dowager Xiao back to Luoyang, and with the Empress Dowager Xiao, there was also the head of Yu Wenhua and his brothers! Wan He also made a big publicity, and specially led hundreds of civil and military officials to the outside of the city to welcome the return of the Empress Dowager Xiao, and hung the heads of Yu Wenhua and his brothers on the city gate!
Wanhe's move immediately caused an uproar! After Yu Wenhua and attacked Weizhou before, it was quiet, and everyone was speculating, where did Yu Wenhua and run to? Unexpectedly, after a few months, the heads of Yu Wenhua and his brothers appeared in Luoyang City! This means that it was Wanhe who sent someone to kill the Yuwen brothers! In this way, the previous rumors that Wang Shichong and Dou Jiande said that Wan He was the same party of the Yuwen family were self-defeating, and the righteousness occupied by Wang Shichong and Dou Jiande before did not exist! Wan He first supported the son of the first emperor as the emperor, and then eradicated the rebellious Yu culture and, in the reasonable, Wan He's support of the Emperor Tai has become the orthodoxy of the Great Sui! Now the atmosphere of the world has also turned to Wanhe's side, which is more and more unfavorable to Wang Shichong and Dou Jiande!
The combined forces of Wang Shichong and Dou Jiande, who were successively defeated in Bishui Pass, Baihua Valley and Yangcheng, and now the limelight is unfavorable, they no longer advance, but retreat in Xingyang. On the Liang army's side, Pei Renji, Pei Xingyan, father and son on Bishui Pass, Zhu Muwu of Baihua Valley, and Yangcheng's eldest grandson Hengan and Cheng Yanjin directly sent troops to counterattack and besiege Xingyang from three directions! Zhu Muwu led 30,000 Liang troops to intercept Xingze, and the eldest grandson Heng'an and Cheng Yanjin led 20,000 soldiers and horses to block Tongji Canal and Yongji Canal to block Dou Jiande's reinforcements! The remaining Pei Renji and Pei Xingyan led an army of 60,000 to attack Xingyang! Now Xingyang is already in danger, and Wang Shichong is also facing the last moment!
Xingze's guard has already been replaced by Wang Shichong's nephew Wang Renze! After hearing that Xingyang was besieged, Wang Ren also hurriedly led the army to the rescue, but on the way, he was ambushed by Zhu Muwu's ambush, and the 20,000 troops were killed. Wang Ren died tragically under Zhu Muwu's gun! And after Zhu Muwu defeated Wang Renze, he directly led his troops back to Xingyang and joined the battle against Xingyang!
At the head of Xingyang City, looking out of the city, Wang Shichong was already pale in the face. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biqugeγ info Wang Shichong is ambitious and wants to create a hegemony through this troubled era, but the current situation is something that Wang Shichong did not expect before! Behind Wang Shichong, Liang Sheng, the great elder of Xiaoyaomen, was also like ashes, although Liang Sheng's skills were good, but in the face of such a battle of thousands of troops, the strength that a martial arts master like them could exert was very small. What's more, there are many martial arts masters in the Liang army's military array, and Liang Sheng, a master of the rivers and lakes, is now a useless hero. Glancing at Wang Shichong beside him, Liang Sheng said: "Military advisor! Let's let the old man escort you out of Xingyang! Return to the mountain gate and ask the master for his sin! With the wisdom of the military division, we will definitely be able to regroup and make a comeback! β
Hearing Liang Sheng's words, Wang Shichong didn't look back, just looked at the Liang army outside the city with a bitter face and was ready to attack the city, and shook his head helplessly. As Liang Sheng said, if Wang Shichong leaves now, under the escort of Liang Sheng and other masters of the Xiaoyao Gate, he will definitely be able to escape back to the mountain gate safely. But the problem is that Wang Shichong has struggled for half his life is all here, and leaving all this and returning to the mountain gate means that Wang Shichong will become the Xiaoyaomen military division who can only rely on the mountain gate, instead of the overlord who once dominated one side! This kind of change is the most unacceptable thing for Wang Shichong! The most important thing is that Wang Shichong is unwilling!
Immediately, Wang Shichong gritted his teeth, clenched his hands into fists, and hummed: "Wait! Wait! And Dou Jiande's reinforcements! As long as Dou Jiande can arrive! There is a silver lining! "Since the news of the annihilation of Wang Renze's army came, Wang Shichong has pinned all his hopes on Dou Jiande! As long as Dou Jiande can arrive in time, there is still a chance to relieve the siege of Xingyang!
Hearing Wang Shichong's words, Liang Sheng also understood Wang Shichong's thoughts, but shook his head. Today's Wang Shichong is already preparing a way to death! At the end of last year, Wang Shichong sent Xiaoyaomen masters to assist Yang Tong in planning a coup d'Γ©tat in Luoyang, but the plan failed, and all the masters of Xiaoyaomen were wiped out! No matter how many masters there are, this time it will be a very huge loss! I remember that the master of the door sent someone to ask for the crime, and Wang Shichong was even cut off a finger as a punishment! And the Jianghuai soldiers in Xingyang City are the foundation of Xiaoyaomen's struggle for hegemony in the world! If Xingyang City is broken, decades of hard work in the Xiaoyaomen plan will also be in vain, and God knows how much punishment Wang Shichong will have to suffer at that time!
And Wang Shichong seemed to have thought of this too, and subconsciously touched the index finger of his left hand, but he touched it empty! Wang Shichong's teeth were deeply embedded in his lips, he took a deep breath, and turned around directly and shouted: "Call Li Mi!" β
Wang Shichong and Dou Jiande's alliance, which is all led by Li Mi, since the alliance of the two armies, Li Mi and Li Mi's Pushan battalion have been stationed in Xingyang. Wang Shichong wants to wait for Dou Jiande's reinforcements, so naturally he has to find Li Mi. But after half an hour, the sergeant sent by Wang Shichong to find Li Mi ran back alone, clasped his fists at Wang Shichong and shouted: "Lord Wang! There is no one in Li Mi's residence, and there is no whereabouts of the Pushan camp in the barracks! β
"What?" Hearing this news, Wang Shichong was also startled, and immediately ran to the sergeant, grabbed the sergeant's collar, stared at the sergeant fiercely, and shouted angrily: "Say it again!" What about the Li Miren? β
The sergeant was also frightened by Wang Shichong's appearance, and was so shocked that he stammered: "King, king, prince!" That, that Li Mi, Li Mi, no, no, no, gone! β
"Bastard!" Wang Shichong threw the sergeant to the ground, stepped on the sergeant's chest, and shouted with a hideous face: "The four gates of this Xingyang City are closed, and Li Mi is so dignified, how can it be gone?" Could it be that he and his Pushan battalion have grown wings and will fly out of the city out of thin air? It's nonsense! β
"Strategist! Don't worry! Seeing that Wang Shichong was almost showing signs of losing his mind, Liang Sheng next to him also hurriedly stepped forward to grab Wang Shichong and persuaded Wang Shichong: "Military advisor! The top priority is to find Li Mi's whereabouts, so why be angry with this pawn? β
The appearance on Wang Shichong's face at this moment was terrifying and hideous, panting heavily, and his chest was also rising and falling with this heavy breath. However, Wang Shichong was worthy of being an old fox, and soon regained his composure, glared at the sergeant fiercely, and then shouted: "Still stunned!" Pass my military order, and the whole city will search for Li Mi! Be sure to find out Li Mi for me! If you can't find Li Mi, you can come and see you! β
The sergeant was drunk by Wang Shichong, and the sergeant was also so frightened that he ran to the city, and disappeared in a blink of an eye. And after the sergeant ran away, Wang Shichong's brother Wang Shiwei walked over quickly, and when he saw Wang Shichong's angry face, he also walked over quickly, and shouted at Wang Shichong is fist: "Big brother!" β
"Humph!" Wang Shichong's anger did not disappear at the moment, even if he saw his younger brother, he didn't have a good face, snorted coldly, and shouted: "You don't guard the city gate well, what are you doing here?" β
Wang Shichong's angry appearance also made Wang Shiwei stunned, and raised his head to look at Liang Sheng next to him. Wang Shiwei and Wang Shichong's nephew Wang Renze, they are both personal disciples of the master of Xiaoyaomen, and the relationship with Liang Sheng is also very good, Wang Shiwei looked at Liang Sheng, and also wanted to ask Liang Sheng what made Wang Shichong so angry. And in front of Wang Shichong, Liang Sheng couldn't say it clearly, so he could only make Wang Shiwei look careful.
Wang Shiwei felt strange in his heart, but he still hugged his fist at Wang Shichong and said, "Big brother! The little brother is also here for this matter! Last night, Li Mi left from the East City Gate with people! β
Wang Shichong is angry about Li Mi's matter, Li Mi is related to his connection with Dou Jiande, and now Wang Shichong is waiting for Dou Jiande's reinforcements, just when Li Mi is needed, Li Mi is gone, how can Wang Shichong not be angry? And at this time, Wang Shiwei's words also made Wang Shichong shocked and angry, turned his head directly, looked at Wang Shiwei with wide eyes, and shouted angrily: "Li Mi is gone? How did you let him go? And I left last night! Why didn't you come to tell me until now? β
Wang Shiwei didn't think of the importance of this, just shrugged his shoulders and said, "I just learned about it, and I didn't stay at the city gate last night!" Besides, the soldier on duty at night said, then Li Mi has your token and jade pendant for your eldest brother, and said that you sent him out of the city to contact reinforcements! With your token here, big brother, those soldiers naturally don't dare to stop it! I had just returned to the city gates and learned from the soldiers! No, I'll be there all the time, so I'll come and tell my eldest brother! β
"Tokens? Jade pendant? Hearing Wang Shiwei's words, Wang Shichong subconsciously reached out and groped on his body, and suddenly his face changed greatly! When Liang Sheng next to him saw it, he naturally guessed that it must be Wang Shichong's token and jade pendant missing, so he frowned tightly, and said in a deep voice: "The old man has also heard before that there is also a Pushan secret camp in the Pushan camp under Li Mi, all of which are made up of some strange people!" It seems that Li Mi imitated the strategy of the rooster and the dog thief, stole the token and jade pendant of the military advisor, deceived the city gate and fled! β
"Humph!" Wang Shiwei has always looked down on Li Mi, and when he heard that Li Mi had escaped from the city gate by trickery, he didn't care much, he just pursed his lips and snorted contemptuously: "Courageless rats!" Run, run! What's the big deal! β
