Chapter 198: It's terrifyingly quiet
"It doesn't matter which way we flee, we just have to defend this side. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info" Xu Gang shook his head slightly, then glanced at the woods in the distance a few times, pondered for a while, and suddenly smiled and said: "You kid is cunning, tell me how many people you ambushed in front?!" ”
Yang Huaiyu couldn't close his mouth in shock, and said incredulously: "General Xu, you, how do you know that there is someone there?" ”
Xu Gang shook his head and smiled: "The sun hasn't set yet!" But look at the forest, it's so quiet, if it weren't for the army hidden in it, how could it be like this? ”
Yang Huaiyu suddenly smiled bitterly, he thought it was a proud work, but he never thought that Xu Gang would see the flaws at a glance.
The two watched the sunset gradually set, the sky was getting dark, but there was no movement in the city, even Xu Gang was a little anxious to wait, worried about whether the traitor king had already escaped with the news, and was about to talk to Yang Huaiyu, when they suddenly heard a loud noise coming from the city.
Xu Gang looked at Yang Huaiyu suspiciously: "What are they doing?!" How dare you use firearms in the city, what if you hurt the people? With such a style, even if the rebellion succeeds, it will not be loved by the people! ”
Before he could finish speaking, several explosions were heard one after another, more violently than the previous one. Xu Gang turned his head to take a closer look, only to see that in the north of the city, several puffs of smoke were rising, and he faintly heard some shouts and killings. At the same time, in the night, two arrows suddenly rose into the sky, piercing the sky.
"General Xu, look, the big fish in the north of the city has appeared!" Yang Huaiyu pointed at the arrow, screamed excitedly, and then a trace of regret appeared in his eyes.
"Not good!" Xu Gang turned around suddenly, was so frightened that he almost fell, pointed at Lin Zi and shouted: "Yang Huaiyu, hurry up!! Get out of the woods! Withdraw now! ”
Seeing that Xu Gang's face changed greatly, although he didn't understand the meaning of his words for a while, Yang Huaiyu still didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly shot a ringing arrow, and there was a noise in the distant forest, and countless sergeants appeared in the dark, and they hurriedly retreated and gathered towards Yang Huaiyu.
After the order was executed, Yang Huaiyu slowly said his thoughts: "General Xu, why do you want to withdraw the people?"
Xu Gang's face was heavy, he pointed to the thick smoke billowing from the north, and said slowly: "Brother Yang, look at what it is?" ”
"It should be gunpowder explosion that produces gunpowder smoke!" Speaking of this, Yang Huaiyu's face changed, and he was shocked: "General Xu, are you suspicious that we also have gunpowder hidden here?" ”
Xu Gang nodded and spoke, but the cold sweat on Yang Huaiyu's face was dripping, since the enemy had planted gunpowder in the north, there was absolutely no reason to ignore the south. This Tibetan land is a forest, the forest is deep and dense, and many dead corners are difficult to find, in case someone really buried gunpowder, once it deflagrates, the fire will take advantage of the wind, and thousands of brothers will be buried here.
The more he thought about it, the more frightened he became, his expression was extremely solemn, Xu Gang patted him on the shoulder and comforted: "Brother Yang, don't blame yourself too much, there are countless capable people in the traitorous king's mansion, naturally it is not so easy to deal with, just remember to learn a lesson!" I never thought of it so much, and it was only when I saw the fireworks in the north that I thought of this place. ”
Yang Huaiyu nodded gratefully, his expression quickly returned to normal, and then he saw a distant flying horse rushing into the camp, it turned out to be a herald, only to see him jump off the horse, and hurriedly hugged his fists and said: "Tell Commander Yang, Deputy Envoy Di instructed his subordinates to report that in the north of the city, there was a sudden sneak attack by a large number of enemies, with thousands of people, and the situation was extremely fierce, please be vigilant and vigilant." ”
Thousands? When Xu Gang heard this number, he was also taken aback, and hurriedly asked, "Who are they?" Did you come out of the city? ”
The herald hurriedly replied: "These people are dressed in black, without banners, they did not come out of the city, but since the attack from the periphery of the army, they moved quickly, the combat power is extremely strong, and we are in a stalemate with our army, and there are more than 200 soldiers who are not afraid of death, and they rush into the camp of our army with gunpowder tied to them, and the situation is extremely tragic. Yang Zhijun judged that these people were very likely to be traitors who had died in the land. They must have come out of the nest this time to answer the traitorous king, so Deputy Envoy Di asked all the ministries to prepare early. ”
Xu Gang nodded and didn't speak, and then he heard a more violent explosion from the north, the flames soared into the sky, a few points stronger than the previous momentum, and from such a distance, he could hear the sound of fierce fighting coming from there.
"Report !!" Another horse galloped over, and the second herald jumped off his horse panting: "Tell Commander Yang, there is a sudden change outside the north gate!" ”
"Tell me!" Yang Huaiyu shouted.
The soldier clenched his fists and said: "Outside the north gate, the gunpowder suddenly ignited, and when I arrived, three or four hundred men in black were killed from the ground and attacked our army fiercely. ”
"Underground?" Yang Huaiyu asked puzzled.
"Yes!" The herald replied: "According to Yang Zhijun's inference, these people have dug tunnels and buried gunpowder under the city, and have been hiding for many days. ”
Xu Gang smiled at this time: "When the brothers rushed to kill, did anyone see the trace of the traitorous king?" ”
The herald hurriedly shook his head, Xu Gang chuckled, and then did not speak again.
The north ground burst into flames, and the soldiers' shouts of killing faintly rushed into the eardrums, judging from this momentum, the enemy seemed to be fighting to the death of the net.
Yang Huaiyu said worriedly: "General Xu. Looking at the formation over there, it doesn't seem to be a fake, do you want us to send someone over to take a look? ”
"There's no need, let's just go to the south with peace of mind" Xu Gang smiled mysteriously, then waved his hand and said: "There is your father at the north gate, and there is no way to get out of the chaos, but our side is a little unusual." ”
"Our side?!" Yang Huaiyu's eyes fluttered, and he said strangely: "General Xu, where did you start with this?" ”
Xu Gang sighed: "Brother Yang, there is gunpowder in the north, and it is the dead soldier's, and the fight is vigorous, but what about our side?" ”
Yang Huaiyu frowned for a long time, nodded and said, "We feel a little quiet here!" ”
"It's not a little quiet, it's quiet and terrible!!" Xu Gang snorted coldly and said slowly: "As the saying goes, behind the quiet, it is often the omen before the outbreak, the quieter it is, the more terrible the outbreak, so the more lively the ground over there, the more worried I am!" Brother Yang, you pass the word, tell all brothers to be vigilant, and as soon as there is a disturbance, immediately start culling! ”
"Yes!" Yang Huaiyu clenched his fists, answered, and immediately handed down an order, and the whole army was on alert!
The night was getting darker, the torches were burning in the camp, and thousands of soldiers were in place, waiting for the sudden situation that would come at some point. It's a pity that it backfired, the sound of fighting in the north became more and more intense, and the urgent reports flew one by one, but the south of the city was unusually quiet, and it seemed that even the sound of mosquitoes fanning their wings could be heard clearly.
