Chapter 33: Counterattacking Wang Shiji

Xiao Wenqiang was slightly stunned, and then said: "We still have a naval fleet at the mouth of the Qinhuai River, and yesterday the emperor ordered that the soldiers patrolling the river can return to the city to celebrate the Chinese New Year's Eve, and the general of the escort army who led the ship to patrol the river, the assassin Shi Fanmeng of Southern Yuzhou, is in the palace at this time."

Therefore, Liu Yitong said that as long as the messenger who reported the news arrived, Shi Fushu would definitely let General Fan lead the naval fleet to block the river, and it was impossible for the Sui army to have hundreds of more warships at once. ”

Wang Huaqiang's heart sank, this poisonous plan is really powerful, and he is only afraid that the enemy's fleet has been dispatched at this time. But judging from the long-pole wolf's tooth arrows shot from the river just now, he vaguely felt that it would not be the Chen Dynasty's river defense warship, if it was really Chen's fleet, it would be impossible to shoot arrows directly at the river bank without even lighting torches in the dense fog, let alone shooting directly at the river bank without distinguishing between the enemy and us.

Wang Huaqiang's heart appeared Wang Shiji's smiling face, his heart sank suddenly, he turned his eyes to look at the three big fires on the riverbank, from the ignition to the present, the battle has been fought for almost two hours, but there is not a single soldier to follow up, there is obviously no fierce battle on the river, then there is only one explanation:

Wang Shiji betrayed himself and put himself here as bait to drag the Chen Dynasty's army, while Wang Shiji crossed the river elsewhere. Even the mysterious warship on the river was most likely sent by Wang Shiji, not by Chen Jun's sailors.

Wang Huaqiang's heart was like a mess for a while, what he was most worried about finally happened, now he was on the verge of a desperate situation, Chen Jun's sailors would soon come to block the river, and the army was likely to rush to his place, if he stayed here and didn't leave, he was likely to become a turtle in the urn.

Thinking of this, Wang Huaqiang gritted his teeth and turned his head to look into the distance, but vaguely found that there was a fire in the new pavilion about ten miles to the north.

Wang Huaqiang's heart moved, and he pointed in that direction and asked Xiao Wenqiang: "General Xiao, do you see if it is your new pavilion?" ”

Xiao Wenqiang turned his head and looked at it, his face changed greatly: "How can this be, how can the new pavilion catch fire?!" ”

Wang Huaqiang understood all of a sudden, presumably Wang Shi took advantage of the situation to capture the new pavilion, and now he is afraid that his 10,000 iron cavalry has already gone ashore, and he is ready to take advantage of the opportunity of the Chen Dynasty's army to pounce here again, and Jiankang City's air defense is weak, and go straight to Jiankang and break the country and capture the king.

Thinking of this, Wang Huaqiang gritted his teeth with hatred, the reason why Yang Xiang and Pei Yun were delayed was also revealed at this time, they must have been involved with Wang Shiji in private, and they met Wang Shiji in the new pavilion, and the burning fire must be their signal to Wang Shiji.

As for Wang Shiji, he not only let himself be used as bait here to drag Chen Jun, but also sent warships to attack the two armies in the melee with a rain of arrows, and even used an inhumane weapon like the Wanjun Divine Crossbow, obviously wanting to kill everyone, first, to extinguish the mouth, and secondly, I am afraid that he still misses his own family property.

Wang Huaqiang scolded in his heart: Wang Shiji of the dog day, this time Lao Tzu gave you a miserable pit, and the eldest brother's life was also lost in the hands of this dog thing, if you don't take revenge, you swear not to be a person!

With the rapid change of thoughts in Wang Huaqiang's heart, the expression on his face also became terrifying against the backdrop of this firelight, and Xiao Wenqiang looked a little frightened, and stood aside with his hands down, silent.

Wang Huaqiang turned his head, and suddenly saw Wang Huawei who was still lost on the ground, and suddenly had an idea in his heart, he ignored Xiao Wenqiang, walked straight towards Wang Huawei, and patted him on the shoulder.

Wang Huawei looked up blankly and found that it was his second brother, and there was another burst of sadness, and the tears that had been stopped filled his eyes again.

Wang Huaqiang squatted down and whispered in Wang Huawei's ear: "Third brother, do you want to avenge your eldest brother?" ”

Wang Huawei was slightly stunned and asked, "Of course I want to, the second brother knows which big brother killed the dog?" ”

Wang Huaqiang picked up Wang Huawei, walked to the side of the secluded place for more than ten steps, convinced that the nearest person was also thirty steps away, and then said in a new voice: "Our brothers have let Wang Shiji's dog thing harm, he took advantage of our hard fight with the defenders of Chen Jun's new pavilion here, and attacked the new pavilion by himself, and those warships shooting arrows on the river must have been sent by him." ”

Wang Huawei's eyes widened in surprise: "No, he is the main general, what good is it for him to do this?" ”

Wang Huaqiang gritted his teeth and whispered: "In this way, he has the opportunity to monopolize Jiankang, now that we have completely annihilated the garrison of the enemy's new pavilion here, Jiankang will transfer a large army over, so that Jiankang is empty, and he has the possibility of a successful sneak attack, third brother, think about it, why has none of Wang Shiji's soldiers landed until now?" ”

Wang Huawei turned his head to look at the riverbank, the three big fires were almost burned out, the fire was faint, and he suddenly understood, and his eyes were split: "Dog, kill the eldest brother, and want to swallow the great merit alone, I have to kill him!"

Wang Huawei nodded: "It is necessary to find him for revenge, and now the first task is two, one is to evacuate this dangerous area as soon as possible, the army of the Chen Dynasty should arrive soon, and the other is to find a way to make the army of the Chen Dynasty turn to the new pavilion, and we must let them know that the new pavilion has been occupied by Wang Shiji, and this bastard cannot be cheapened." ”

Wang Huawei's eyes flashed with murder: "Second brother, I listen to you, what do you want me to do?" ”

Wang Huaqiang said in a low voice: "This is about forty miles away from Jiankang City, and the new pavilion is five or six miles away from here, and the messenger who reported the news should have set off three hours ago, even if Shi Wenqing's movements are slow, he should have already transferred troops at this time, and the fastest troops should be Ren Zhong's army stationed in the south of the city, and the slower ones will also transfer the Lu Guangda troops in the west of the city, and the difference will not exceed half an hour."

Now hand over to you a dangerous mission. Among all the people, only you can complete it, you take this group of Chen Dynasty prisoners to Xintingba, just say that we are here to guard the riverbank, please Wang Shiji to answer, if there is no accident on the way, you will meet the Chen Dynasty army that is coming, when the time comes, you just have to run for your life, remember, you must let go of that Xiao Wenqiang.

This person knows about the new pavilion, and after escaping back to the Chen army, he will definitely tell the general who led the troops, as long as Chen Jiang has a little brain, he will send the main force to besiege the new pavilion, so that Wang Shiji's abacus will not be successful, and he can only stick to it and wait for help. ”

Wang Huawei said hatefully: "If that's the case, let Nan Chen kill Wang Shiji, how can we take revenge?" ”

Wang Huaqiang shook his head: "Wang Shiji didn't die so easily, this scourge will live for thousands of years." If there is no chance to sneak attack Jiankang, he will definitely retreat in the new pavilion to hold on, where it is easy to defend and difficult to attack, with his 10,000 elite soldiers, he can condescendingly use cavalry to attack, even if the southerners come with 50,000 or 60,000, they can only build a camp to besiege him.

In this way, Nan Chen's river defense will definitely have a big loophole, whether it is He Ruobi or Han Baohu, they have the opportunity to take the opportunity to cross the river with a large army, Wang Shiji has achieved the goal of attracting the enemy's main force, and it will also be a great achievement in the future, and it will not offend He Ruobi and Han Baohu, which is called retreating and seeking second. ”

Wang Huawei took out his knife and slashed it in the air a few times: "This dog thief, if you don't break him into thousands of pieces, it will be difficult to eliminate the hatred in my heart." ”

Wang Huaqiang said in a deep voice: "Third brother, don't just use your temper to hate your enemy, that will only make you lose judgment, Wang Shiji is not so easy to die, at least after this southern expedition, his promotion to the rank of lord is indispensable, and it will take a long time to fight him, so the first thing is that we have to survive first, and then we can't let him get a big success."

Do these two, and then find a chance to get him slowly. So now that the situation is urgent, you have to find a way to release the captives to the Nanchen people on the way to Xintinglei. ”

Wang Huawei nodded: "This is easy to do, this time I also ran over two horses, when the time comes, I will ride a horse to escort these captives, as soon as I meet Nan Chen's people, I will turn around and run, let the captives to them, and come to the joint where we were scheduled to retreat urgently." ”

Wang Huaqiang glanced at the captives in the distance, and said in a low voice: "Take Ma Sanye's people to go, if you see that the momentum is not right, you will run directly, Ma Sanye's bandits are very fine, and when they see that the momentum is not right, they will scatter birds and beasts, and even surrender to Chen Jun, don't worry too much about them." ”

Wang Huawei was slightly stunned: "This is not righteous." Do you want to inform Ma Sanye? ”
