Chapter 217: Clouds Cover Yingzhou City (I)

PS: Today's update is quite late, please forgive me. Tomorrow is May 1st, the second full month after the book is officially on the shelves. Last month, I achieved a breakthrough of zero monthly passes, and if I can go up by one or two more this month, I will be very happy~

Ye Mengding squinted slightly, didn't say a word, and didn't know whether he was asleep or awake.

The wind and snow have stopped, but since yesterday afternoon, after the Tianwu army went north one after another, until this morning, there has been no news. However, the rear of the Tianwu Army has already passed Fuzhou under the leadership of Ye Yingwu, and it is estimated that it will be able to reach Yingzhou in half a day.

Zhang Cheng paced in front of the map with some uneasiness, chanting words in his mouth, and looked up at the snowy door from time to time, as if he regretted that he did not take someone to follow the Tianwu Army to the north. And Deng Guangjian is leading a group of officials who have been urgently transferred from Xingzhou to check the taxes and expenditures of Yingzhou for several years, and the sky is dark.

A six-door scout walked into the council hall quickly, Zhang Cheng was suddenly a little excited, and hurriedly greeted him, but the scout had an anxious look on his face, and after hesitating for a moment, he said softly: "Commander Qiyu, the soldiers stationed in Ezhou have not moved, but now they have been out of the camp one after another, it seems that there are changes in the camp, and Wang Lixin, the pacification envoy of Hunan, was accompanied by several commanders and envoys into the city, and it is estimated that it will not be long before he will come here." ”

The Tianwu army did not leave anyone to defend on the city wall of Yingzhou, and even the city was a hundred battles cavalry of thirty people as a liaison, and there were six gates, about forty or fifty soldiers of the Jinyi Guard, who came and went to collect news.

The total is not enough for 100 people, let alone resist the Ezhou garrison soldiers, even if you reason with them, I'm afraid people won't listen.

Zhang Cheng couldn't help frowning suddenly: "What kind of moth is this Ezhou garrison soldier doing?" Yesterday, the Tianwu Army sent troops to inform them that they did not say anything, but today they went out of the camp and entered the city without explanation, so what happened? ”

The scout said helplessly: "There are not too many of us among the soldiers stationed in Ezhou, and we don't know what happened at all, but the brothers speculate that it is very likely that Wang Lixin suppressed these commanders who have always hated us at the beginning, but because there is no news from the Tianwu Army during the day today, I am afraid they can't help but do it after all." ”

Zhang Cheng nodded. And Deng Guangjian also had to put down what he was doing: "What happened?" ”

Zhang Cheng said with a wry smile: "The soldiers stationed in Ezhou have changed, and they have entered the city to take over the defense of Yingzhou. Wang Lixin estimated that he would arrive at this place in a few moments. ”

Deng Guangjian couldn't help but take a breath of cool air, and couldn't help but knock on the table: "This Ezhou garrison soldier is really more than enough to succeed!" If the Tianwu Army didn't have them, they would still be able to defeat the Mongol Tartars! ”

"I don't want to hear what this adult says." There was a noise outside the door. Immediately after that, the door was pushed open, and several commanders of the Ezhou garrison who had a relationship with Zhang Cheng walked in. It seems that this sentence was said by this strong man.

The strong man dressed as a conductor swept around the faces of several people in the room, and immediately sneered: "A certain Chen Feng thought it was some kind of demon and monster. can scare our Lord Wang like that, so it seems that it is just a few helpless guys, how can there be an old man, isn't it that you guys are too timid, invite your father out to be majestic! ”

Immediately, the rest of the commanders laughed along, reversing the previous appearance of not daring to fight in front of the Tianwu Army. On the contrary, Wang Lixin, who was standing between them, smiled at Zhang Cheng with some embarrassment, obviously he did not expect the situation to deteriorate to such an extent that he finally lost the ability to control the 20,000 Ezhou garrison soldiers.

Zhang Cheng hadn't seen this Chen Feng before, but he had seen the information collected by the six doors. This Chen Feng is the most unruly commander among the Ezhou garrison soldiers, and he is still the front of the Ezhou garrison soldiers, and he is a brave man in the battle, but he is stronger than anyone else in the back snatching and seizing, the last time the Tianwu Army and the Ezhou garrison soldiers clashed, Chen Feng was taking people to count the seizures, and he was not at the scene, so that when he realized that the big thing was not good, Wang Lixin had already brought everyone back.

For this Hunan pacification envoy and Ezhou governor who suddenly appeared, Chen Feng was naturally a hundred reluctant. It's just that the commanders of the other compartments have already chosen to give in, Chen Feng is weak after all, and he can only bow his head in a proper manner, but he still did some tricks. For example, in the previous war to reinforce the Yingzhou Naval Division, at the beginning, the Ezhou garrison soldiers marched slowly, because Chen Feng dragged his feet with the front compartment, and later because he was not satisfied with the Tianwu Army, the Ezhou garrison troops accelerated their speed, but they arrived outside the Yingzhou Naval Division camp. It was Chen Feng's very lax deployment again, which caused the Ezhou garrison to collapse quickly.

Of course, most of this information was spied by the six doors from multiple sources, and some were subjectively inferred based on Chen Feng's performance on the battlefield, and it is unknown how much can be believed, after all, any intelligence has its own uncertainties.

But the first moment Zhang Cheng saw this Chen Feng, he knew that this was definitely not an easy guy to deal with. However, Zhang Cheng is not a hairy young man who has not dried up, but the leader of the six doors and the brocade guard, and he just smiled lightly at the moment:

"This must be the commander of Chen Du, a soldier stationed in Ezhou, I don't know what the commander of Chen Du walked in so big, why is it expensive? If you don't have anything to do, please go out by yourself. The Yingzhou City Government is not the commander of Chen Du, who said that he would come in. ”

Chen Feng was a little surprised, and then said in a cold voice: "You kid is not arrogant when you speak, you came in to protect my family, Wang Xianggong, to take over Yingzhou City." Wang Xianggong, as the governor of Ezhou and the pacification envoy of Hunan, is the most honorable person here, and he should take over Yingzhou. You guys don't know what to do, let Wang Xianggong eat ice and snow outside the city, but you are very happy to live here warmly, aren't you ashamed? You can roll up the cover and roll! ”

"That's it, don't you know how to be ashamed, get out of here!" Several commanders echoed one after another, although these guys are all villains who tend to be inflammatory, but they all hold a lot of military power in their hands, and when they join forces to form a group, even Chen Feng will be afraid of three points.

The smile on Zhang Cheng's face suddenly dissipated, and turned more and more gloomy: "Six Doors and Hundred Battles, take down these arrogant people for a certain person!" ”

The six doors and the hundred battles in the wings on both sides of the room that had long been unbearable poured out, and the divine arm crossbow took the lead, and the snow bright sword was behind. The group surrounded these commanders who dared to break in. And Chen Feng was also stunned, he didn't expect that only sixty or seventy people on the other side would dare to be tough with him, so he snorted coldly at the moment, and ignored the meaning of Wang Lixin pulling his sleeves behind him to block:

"Is there no one under Lao Tzu?!"

"Bang!" There was a loud bang. The doors on both sides were knocked open, and the soldiers stationed in Ezhou also rushed up, but the number of people was much more than that of the six doors and the hundred battles.

A smile flashed at the corner of Zhang Cheng's mouth, but he didn't panic and looked at Chen Feng. And later, Deng Guangjian didn't seem to be frightened by this situation. looked at the opponent with great interest, and did not forget to glance at Ye Mengding, who had been sitting next to him, with the corner of his eye.

"Are you going to fight?" Chen Feng sneered.

Zhang Cheng wanted to speak, but a slow and firm voice came from behind him: "This tea is already cold, you two really don't know how to serve people." ”

Zhang Cheng and Deng Guangjian subconsciously looked back, only to see that Ye Mengding didn't know when to stand up slowly, the teacup in his hand was on the table, and all the movements of the old man were very gentle, which was incompatible with the momentum of the swords and soldiers in the lobby.

"Uncle・・・・・・" Zhang Cheng couldn't help but whisper, and Deng Guangjian wanted to step forward to help.

Ye Mengding smiled slightly and stretched out his hand to block it. His eyes are still as bright as ever, full of fighting spirit. Zhang Cheng still opened his mouth and said: "Uncle, if you don't work hard, I can still properly solve this little thing." ”

The old man laughed softly: "There's nothing to worry about, how much more capable this Chen Feng can be, it's just a presumptuous guy with a group of echo worms." At the beginning, the old man was not afraid of Jia Yidao, would he still be afraid of these shrimp soldiers and crab generals. ”

Although Ye Mengding's voice was very soft, Chen Feng still heard it because of the distance. Suddenly sneered: "You old master, don't think that you can rely on the old and sell the old when you are old, you really won't show mercy to your subordinates." ”

Ye Mengding didn't seem to care, and looked at Zhang Cheng with a smile: "What's more, Yuanlie invited the old man to move." Isn't that what happened here? ”

Before the words fell, Wang Lixin seemed to have understood something, and regardless of the obstruction of several commanders around him, he said directly: "I don't know what the old man is called?" ”

Ye Mengding stretched out his hand and gently patted the pillar in the hall, then sighed softly and said with a smile: "The soldiers and horses of Jiangnan West Road are under the jurisdiction of Ye Mengding. Lingtianwu Army sits here, appeasing the Li people of Yingzhou, I don't know what Wang Xianggong can say, this sword soldier should not be his own people, but should be Mongolian Tartars. ”

Not only Wang Lixin, but even Chen Feng, who was invincible just now, was a clever man in his heart, and several commanders who were best at seeing the wind and steering the rudder invariably took a step back. After all, the name of the old man in front of them really shocked them.

Ye Mengding, Ye Zhenzhi.

What's more, as the commander of the Jiangnan West Road, Ye Mengding's prestige and official position are no worse than Wang Lixin. Because everyone tacitly understands that Wang Lixin's Hunan pacification envoy is actually just a fictitious title that has no effect, and there is not much difference between the northern Jiangxi pacification envoy who was casually rewarded to Su Liuyi, in the late Southern Song Dynasty, this was already a flood of official positions, and what was really useful to Wang Lixin was actually the governor of Ezhou.

It's just that in front of the soldiers and horses all the way, Zhizhou is nothing. And Chen Feng's little commanders are nothing.

"The younger generation is disrespectful, I don't know that Ye Xianggong is here, if I know, I will definitely come to visit early." Wang Lixin's mouth was a little bitter, and he looked at the few overwhelmed commanders around him, and he was even more helpless and angry, you guys, I have told you three times and twice not to make any small moves in front of the Tianwu Army, you guys are good, now Ye Mengding has appeared, what does this mean, it means that this is simply a pit that Ye Yingwu dug early.

Waiting for you guys who don't have brains to compete for fame and land jump in! It's just that he didn't have the ability to stop them, and he was dragged into this pit as a pretext.

Chen Feng also vaguely understood that he had been tricked, or that the Tianwu Army had taken precautions, but now that he had come to this point, in the future, when it came to crimes, maybe those guys who saw the wind and made the rudder would be able to escape, but he, the main culprit, could not escape death no matter what.

Blatantly hijacking the commander and meeting with friendly sabers, which one is placed on either side of Meng Song is a capital crime, Chen Feng knows this better than anyone else.

Taking a light breath, Chen Feng glanced threateningly at the several retreating commanders behind him, and then said in a cold voice, "Ye Mengding? I thought there was something big. Don't get in the way here, you old man, the Tianwu army has already gone north, what do you want this useless old man to do, don't hurry up and give way to a certain prime minister, otherwise don't blame the sword for being eyeless! ”

"Bold!" Zhang Cheng roared angrily.

Chen Feng sneered and looked at him: "What, the old man is not talking, you shrimp soldiers and crabs are making a fuss?" Don't look at yourself how many taels of dry rice you eat, you don't need to use two hands to kill you. ”

Ye Mengding said lightly: "Give way to your father-in-law?" Are you sure? The old man dared to say that as long as Wang Lixin sat down in this hall, tomorrow the old man would let the impeachment of him be piled up on Jia Nidao's desk. As for the few of you, you don't need the imperial court to do it yet, the Tianwu Army is enough. ”

"Tianwu Army, haha, Tianwu Army!" Chen Feng couldn't help but smile and said, "Old man, don't be delusional, the Tianwu Army has been going north for a day, there is no news from Xiangyang, and we have not received any news from Yingzhou, it is estimated that the Mongolian Tartars have been broken into thousands of pieces, and now it is cold outside, maybe the old man can rush over to collect their corpses." ”

Ye Mengding smiled coldly, and there was already a sound outside the door.

The sound of horses' hooves was like a storm that swept the sky. And the dense arrows fell from the sky almost with the sound of horses' hooves.

In the courtyard, the soldiers and soldiers stationed in Ezhou, who still wanted to block for a moment, screamed and fell to the ground. The sound of horses' hooves immediately appeared in the courtyard, and the young general holding the red flag slammed the flag into the ground, and several cavalry dodged, and a light-armored young general came out of the crowd:

"The four compartments of the Tianwu Army are all commanding Ye Yingwu here, and all the rebellious Ezhou cantonment soldiers are killed!"

"Kill!" The bright saber was raised high.

Dealing with a guy like Xiang Chen Feng, Ye Yingwu didn't think about the word "probation" at all.

Kill the clean.

However, looking at the tense posture in the courtyard, Ye Yingwu also breathed a sigh of relief, he finally didn't come late, not to mention his own father, even if Zhang Cheng and Deng Guangjian and others were damaged, they would also be heartbroken, after all, there are too few talents who can be used, and there is one. What's more, there are more than 60 hundred battles and six gate soldiers here.

Chen Feng obviously didn't expect Ye Yingwu to come so quickly, and so directly and simply! At that moment, he almost subconsciously pulled out his waist knife and pounced directly at Ye Mengding, who was close at hand. hijacked Ye Mengding, and Ye Yingwu also had to throw a rat bogey!

It's just that her wishful thinking was in vain, and the dense arrows nailed him to the pillar on one side in the next moment, and Zhang Cheng and Deng Guangjian quickly stepped forward to protect Ye Mengding. As for the soldiers stationed in Ezhou who followed, shouting and screaming under the sabers of the hundred battles, where did they have the time to care about what their commanders looked like.

Looking at Chen Feng, who was still showing off his martial arts just now, he turned into a dead corpse dripping with blood in a moment, and several commanders were also startled, only then did they know how good Zhang Cheng was to talk just now, and he also knew that the title of Ye Yuanjun was not something that normal people could have.

Ye Yingwu's ruthlessness and quick decision at this moment made all of them already heartbroken.

In front of the Hundred Battles, the troops stationed in Ezhou have no chance of winning, not to mention the continuous arrival of the Tianwu Army.

On the contrary, Wang Lixin couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, I don't know if this is a relief. No matter what Ye Yingwu does with himself, he will not do anything that is ashamed of his conscience, sometimes for a person, this is enough. (To be continued.) )
