Chapter 171: Soldiers Descend on the City
Qingfeng Mountain's sudden arrival of soldiers under the city gave the people of Xiangyang great panic, they did not expect that someone would dare to come to Xiangyang, you know, Xiangyang is one of the most fortified cities in the world.
I have to say that in the face of death, the efficiency of those officials is particularly high, and it is only a quarter of an hour, and all the people have already arrived.
At this time, Wang Rui also beat his spirit and asked, "Tell me, what should we do?" ”
Jun Sima Chen Sheng said: "The person who thinks that he should take advantage of the unstable foothold of the bandits outside the city, and he should be attacked suddenly, and he is willing to be the vanguard." ”
After Chen Shengguigang finished speaking, Cai Mao said: "No, no, the bandits outside the city, the army of tigers and wolves, if Chen Sima doesn't defeat the bandits, we will be in trouble." Moreover, we do not have many troops in Xiangyang, only 10,000 people! ”
Chen Sheng roared angrily: "Then you say, what should we do with one of us? Is it sitting here and waiting to die? ”
Cai Mao ignored Chen Sheng, but said: "My lord, our Xiangyang City is strong, and we should be able to hold Xiangyang with these 10,000 soldiers, and if we attack, we are likely to be defeated by bandits." ”
"You know, even the forbidden army of the imperial court was defeated by them, not to mention that we, the county soldiers, when the time comes, stealing chickens and rice, maybe the entire Xiangyang City will not be protected."
Chen Sheng said: "What a Cai Mao, you dare to be alarmist!" ”
Cai Mao said calmly: "Am I alarmist, I have adults to judge, it's not your turn to talk about it, don't you think that you are already a thorn." ”
Chen Sheng said angrily: "You, Cai Mao, don't spew blood. ”
Cai Mao sneered: "I'm spewing blood, joke, let me ask you, are you absolutely sure that you will defeat the bandits outside the city?" ”
At this time, Chen Sheng was speechless, the reason why he said before that he wanted to attack the bandits was also because he felt that there was an opportunity, but let him completely defeat the bandits, to be honest, Chen Sheng had no bottom.
Cai Mao saw that Chen Sheng didn't speak, and knew that Chen Sheng was not sure, and he shouted: "Chen Sheng, you put the army in danger, what do you want to do?" ”
Chen Sheng roared: "Cai Mao, don't spew blood. ”
At this time, Wang Rui shouted: "Okay, okay, don't talk about it, I called you here to discuss how to deal with the bandits, not to quarrel here." ”
Cai Mao and Chen Sheng said at the same time: "My lord, forgive my sins. ”
Wang Rui said in a deep voice: "Sit down." ”
Cai Mao and Chen Sheng responded at the same time: "No, my lord." However, when he sat down, Chen Sheng glared at Cai Mao fiercely, and Cai Mao smiled slightly, and did not react to Chen Sheng at all, which made Chen angry enough.
However, since this was the lobby of the Assassin's Mansion, Chen Sheng didn't dare to speak, but in his heart, he had already scolded Cai Mao to death.
Seeing that the two people arguing stopped, Wang Rui asked, "Tell me, what should we do?" ”
The people present immediately divided into two factions, one was those military generals, who were the main battle, and the other was those civilian officials, who were the main guard.
In the end, Wang Rui asked in a deep voice: "Chen Sheng, Zhang Hu, tell me, can we keep it?" ”
Chen Sheng said in a deep voice: "My lord, if there are only 10,000 bandits, we will definitely be able to defend it, if they are more than 10,000 people." ”
Chen Sheng didn't speak, but the people here were not stupid, and of course they knew what Chen Sheng meant.
Wang Rui asked, "How many bandits are there outside the city now?" ”
Infantry Captain Zhang Hu said: "My lord, according to the results of our observations, there should be about 4,000 people now. ”
Wang Rui asked, "Can you be sure who led them?" ”
Zhang Hu responded: "It should be the crime battle group of Qingfeng Mountain." ”
As soon as Zhang Hu's words fell, everyone hissed, the reputation of the crime war group in Jingzhou is much louder than that of the wolf army, and now in Jingzhou, everyone knows that there is a force in Qingfeng Mountain, all of which are composed of criminals.
This group of bandits fights bravely, and they are not afraid of death, and their combat effectiveness is extremely terrifying. Every time Qingfeng Mountain conquers a city, it uses this army as the vanguard.
Last time, it was a city where the people did not pay the ransom, but they were broken by this group of bandits, and then there was a bloody slaughter of the city, and all the clans were slaughtered. (Of course, the people didn't die much, and those who died were basically the minions of the imperial court, but in their eyes, this was the slaughter of the city.) )
Therefore, those great families felt a special horror for this army. (Isn't this nonsense, those criminals are basically sent in by the big families, and they can't wait to eat the flesh of the big families and drink their blood)
Wang Rui asked, "Then what should we do?" ”
Cai Mao stood up and said, "My lord, no matter what, we should ask the imperial court for help now, as long as the imperial court has a large army coming, we will be safe." ”
Everyone echoed one after another, even those generals surprisingly did not object, after all, as long as the imperial court sent people over, then they could also hold their heads high in the face of those bandits outside.
Wang Rui frowned and said, "Now that the Jingshi is in danger, where are the reinforcements coming?" ”
Cai Mao smiled and said, "My lord, I heard that you and the guard of Hangu Pass are old friends?" ”
Wang Rui frowned and said, "But Hangu Pass is the barrier of the Jingshi, and he will not send people over easily." ”
Cai Mao said with a smile: "My lord, Hangu Pass is a dangerous pass in the world, but there are more than 10,000 male soldiers!" As long as there are 5,000 people, Hangu Pass can be guaranteed to be foolproof, so as long as the adults repair a letter, let him divide the troops of 5,000 people. ”
The others chimed in, "Yes, my lord, whether it works or not, we should at least try it first." ”
It's a matter of everyone's lives, of course everyone will be like this, and at this time, Wang Rui also moved.
Wang Rui shouted loudly and said loudly: "Okay, then I'll fix a book immediately and ask for help." ”
Everyone said, "Your Excellency is wise. ”
Soon, Wang Rui wrote the letter, and he said aloud: "Someone is coming." ”
The scout-looking man came in and said, "The subordinate is here." ”
Wang Rui said in a deep voice: "Give this letter to Zhu Jun, the guard of Hangu Pass. ”
The scout replied, "No, my subordinates swear to complete the task." ”
At this moment, the drums outside the city were beating, and it was clear that the bandits were preparing to attack.
Wang Rui's face changed, and he asked, "How is it possible, how can the bandits attack now?" ”
The faces of everyone present also changed, they didn't expect the bandits to attack so quickly, you know, they came from afar, according to the general method, they should rest for a day now, and attack tomorrow!
However, no one expected that they would start attacking just after they came! Wang Rui said quickly: "The generals will listen to the order." ”
Chen Sheng, Zhang Hu and others responded: "The subordinates are here." ”
"You must quickly support the city wall, and there must be no mistake."
Chen Sheng and Zhang Hu also knew that the matter was urgent, and immediately responded: "No, my subordinates will go here." ”
After speaking. The generals left without looking back.
