Chapter 373: King Qin's Escort (II)

Hou Mo Chen Shun said: "The so-called green mountains are not worried about no firewood, we are now down, and no one in this northwest region dares to reach out to help us, in my opinion, we might as well abandon the city and flee, go to Mobei to join the Turkic Golden Horde, and bring us back to Yang Zhong for revenge in the future, it is not too late." Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info "Hou Mo Chen Chong didn't speak, he didn't want to stay in Xiangwu to fight the trapped beasts for a long time, he also wanted to follow the Silk Road all the way to the west, to find opportunities between the countries of the Western Regions, and then he wanted to pass through Ma Furong's territory, so he gave up.

If you can go north to Mobei to recuperate there, it is naturally a good thing, but I am afraid that if I go alone, the Turks may not be able to reuse, and they, in case the Golden Horde Khan makes a deal with the Central Plains and betrays himself, who will he find to reason. Then I thought of another person, the general under the Golden Horde, Ashina Tumen. This person is now a hot star in the Turks, and he and Hou Mo Chen Chong have only had contacts many times before, and the relationship between them is quite close.

Thinking of this, Hou Mo and Chen Chong deserved to be scheming and calculating, and made a decision immediately. I will do what I think of well, so I said to my brother Hou Mo Chenshun: "At night, you take care of all the gold, silver and jewelry in the warehouse, take away all the property that you can take, and then arrange dozens of henchmen and guards, and we will secretly go out of the city to Mobei in the second half of the night tonight." Hou Mo Chen Shun didn't expect her to be so decisive, and immediately nodded and said, "No problem, I'll handle this matter." ”

The two discussed the specific plan of action carefully, and when it was time to have dinner, Hou Mo Chen Shun left the mourning hall to prepare for the escape. Because of the suddenness of the incident, many of their henchmen did not expect it, but because they have been following Hou Mochen's family, there is no other place to go, thinking that the city is broken, it is a death, it is better to gamble with these two brothers, in case of luck, if you are lucky enough to escape from Mobei, then there will be a chance to turn over in the future.

In Yang Zhong's camp outside the city, Xue Yusheng, Cao Huigong and others were discussing the matter of Yuan Xin's troop transfer order, Cao Huigong said: "Now Hou Mo Chen Chong is about to be wiped out by us, if he withdraws the army back at this time, wouldn't it be a failure, in case he takes the opportunity to counterattack, and our main force is not in Qinzhou, it is equivalent to returning to the mountains to raise tigers." Yang Zhong nodded and didn't speak, he understood all these truths.

Xue Yusheng said slowly: "Actually, I also agree with General Cao's opinion, if this Hou Mo Chen Chong is not removed for a day, you will be uneasy for a day, but the deadline given by the imperial court's troop transfer order is too hasty, don't say that our army is fighting at the moment, even if it is nothing in peacetime, it will take a long time to gather all the men and horses to prepare food and grass equipment, since we are definitely going to delay the opportunity now, it is better to simply solve Hou Mo Chen Chong first before turning back and entering the Jingqin King to escort him." ”

Yang Su also said on the side: "Lord, the two generals are reasonable. If today's chaos in Guanzhong can no longer be compared with the previous peaceful and prosperous era, we can only think about ourselves first, if Yuwen Hu is defeated, it will inevitably cause huge changes in the political situation in Guanzhong, and who doesn't know how he will change the situation after Gao Huan comes. According to the old minister's opinion, it is better for us to organize people with great fanfare on the surface, and privately greet General Li Hu of Huazhou and the history of Gao Thorn in East Qinzhou, if it is really a crisis, we will take advantage of the situation to take Chang'an and dedicate it to Gao Huan. ”

This Yang Su is much more powerful than Liu Wenzhou, and blatantly advised Yang Zhong to rebel, Yang Zhong listened to his words and quickly stopped: "Okay, General Yang, I know what you mean, don't say it again, although you have good intentions, but the old man, I will definitely not do such a rebellious thing." Xue Yusheng nodded and said: "The general is wise, although I think what General Yang said is also reasonable, as the so-called people do not destroy the heavens and the earth for themselves, but it is better to be a little more open-minded." ”

Yang Su stopped talking, Murong Yan was still fighting a tug-of-war with Dou Luguang in Shouyang at the moment, this Dou Luguang did have two brushes, and he repelled the menacing Murong Yan several times. The two were at a stalemate, so Yang Su ran to Xiangwu to report to Yang Zhong, hoping to send some additional reinforcements to take Shouyang City. Yang Zhong's personality is not so tough, and his indecision can be seen in Wei Shouding's incident before. Therefore, sometimes he is more lax about his subordinates, if he was replaced by Gao Bin or Li Hu, it is estimated that Yang Su and Murong Yan would have been replaced by military law.

Cao Huigong came out at this time and added: "Speaking of which, I still think that the most priority at this moment is to solve the Hou Mo Chen Chong in the city first, otherwise we will be restless in our rear when we enter the capital." Yang Zhong nodded and said: "This old man also agrees, so let's prepare in two hands, don't stop attacking the city here, and then ask General Yang and General Cao to cooperate in sending troops to Chang'an." Cao Huigong and Yang Su immediately said happily: "The last general will be ordered." ”

Yang Zhong said to Xue Yusheng again: "This Hou Mo Chen Chong is already in the twilight of his life, I am afraid that he will do a dying struggle." I hope the general will pay more attention to this point. "Xue Yusheng served as the patrol governor of Yang Zhongjun at this time, and the patrol and defense of the entire army were under his control. That's why Yang Zhong specially asked him to say two sentences. Xue Yusheng immediately had to go out to prepare for the siege.

Hou Mo Chen Shun's preparations were almost complete, and dozens of henchmen had already received orders to flee from the city tonight. The enemy besieging the city will flee at night, which is to abandon everyone in the city and flee for their lives. How many people will hate Hou Mochen after tonight, he doesn't know, and he doesn't want to know that he is counting his belongings at this moment, and most of the money and property that can be taken away are all taken away, and he really can't move away, he has already arranged for someone to find a hidden place to bury it, waiting to dig it up again in the future.

In this way, he also prepared three chests of gold, silver, and jewelry, as well as some other precious treasures. Hou Mo Chen Shun looked at the several large boxes in front of him, nodded with satisfaction, and ordered his subordinates to carry the boxes to the carriage and load them, just waiting for tonight's success or failure to be done here. There are no airtight pants in the world, and I don't know who leaked the news that Hou Mo Chen Chong was going to escape, and the people in the whole city spread it, and everyone began to feel uneasy. Some even checked the mourning hall of the Provincial Government Office, and when they saw that Hou Mo and Chen Chong were still in the mourning hall, they didn't dare to speak.

Hou Mo Chen Shun ran to report to Hou Mo Chen Chong: "Everything is ready, all of them have been placed near the north gate, and you can take them with you when you leave tonight." Hou Mo Chen Chong nodded and said, "Do we have any other gold and silver?" "Yes, why do you want to use it?" Hou Mo Chen Shun replied. Hou Mo Chen Chong nodded and said: "The brothers in the city have been following us for many years, since we can't take them away and give them a share, it can be regarded as our family repaying these people." ”

Hou Mo Chen Shun was a little unhappy, he said: "That's a lot of money, 100,000 taels of silver, 3,000 taels of gold." There are also some other jewelry, antique calligraphy and paintings. To say the least, it's worth 150,000 or 60,000 taels of silver. Hou Mo Chen Chong said: "Forget it, money is nothing more than buying food and clothing for us now, and if we can't take it away, it is useless, so it's better to give them a share, at least people still remember our benefits."
