Chapter 823: Furious
Yang Fu's words are directly to the hearts of the people, reasonable and well-founded, not to mention Jiang Xu, even Wang Xu, who was listening, inadvertently felt persuaded. The end result was that Jiang Xu was struggling and frustrated, leaning against the corner of the cell in a daze.
Although Jiang Xu couldn't let go now, just seeing his appearance, Wang Xu knew that most of the matter had been successful, and the rest only needed to give Jiang Xu enough time to adjust himself.
After Yang Fu followed Wang Xu out of the cell, he was not in a good mood, his move was really not for selfishness, nor was it really a false coaxing, but he himself thought like that, and his thoughts were like that. It is precisely because he is born from the heart that he will go straight to Jiang Xu's heart like that, and his voice is full of emotion, which makes him sad.
Subsequently, Wang Xu pulled Yang Fu to lunch together, comforted him well, and at the same time let him stay temporarily, trying his best to persuade Jiang Xu.
After the matter was handed over to Yang Fu to be responsible, he also put it aside for the time being, after all, there were more important matters to be resolved now.
In the early morning of the next day, Wang Xu convened all the civil and military forces and conducted a second military secret discussion.
Of course, the result was still the same, he only gave Wei Yan and Guo Jia the opportunity to speak, and the other generals had no chance to express their opinions at all.
Subsequently, according to Wei Yan's strategy and Guo Jia's construction, Wang Xu ordered Wei Yan, the general of Zhengxi, and Gan Ning, the general of Weilie, to command 60,000 soldiers of the White Tiger Legion, and enter Longguan in an all-round way.
In Wangxian County, Ma Liang temporarily led 10,000 soldiers of the Guards Regiment to garrison the Taiwei Mansion, assisted by General Yang Ling.
The rest of the main force was led by Wang Xu himself, and the hussar general Zhao Yun, the left general Dian Wei, the right general Yan Liang and other generals. Full-scale troops entered Yang City. Support Chen Zhi who attacked the street pavilion.
Two days later. The army was stationed in Yangcheng, and Chen Dao, who had been in the street pavilion for many days, finally launched an offensive against it because of the support of the rear army......
At this time, it is spring, and Xiangyang is already in full bloom, but in this northwest Yang City, it is still cold and biting, especially at night. The temperature is very low.
Wang Xu walked on the low passage of the city wall in Yangcheng, wearing a fur robe, and couldn't help but look into the distance, and the lonely figure in the moonlight looked very bleak.
"Lord, it's so late, why don't you rest, but come to this cold city wall, don't hurt your body!"
Guo Jia's soft voice came, and he took a steady step, breaking the silence here.
"Bong-hyot!" Wang Xu turned around. smiled and said, "It's okay, this bit of wind and cold can't hurt me." I just can't sleep, come out for a walk! It's you, why did you come out so late? ”
"I just received a letter from Gao Shun in the north, so I looked for the lord to report!" Guo Jia saluted and said.
"Is that good news or bad news?"
Wang Xu asked casually, gently pulled the fur robe on his shoulder, and looked extremely calm, he knew the current situation in the Chu State, and it would not be too affected by a small victory or defeat in the local area, if there was really something critical, then Guo Jia who came here would not be so calm.
"Annunciation!" Guo Jia replied, and then handed over the secret letter in his hand: "Lord, the young lord Wang Zheng is under the account of General Gao Shun, and he made meritorious contributions in the first battle and killed two generals of the Hu people!" Gao Shun praised him in the letter, saying that he not only fought bravely and took the lead, but also knew how to change by chance, and knew how to provoke the enemy general, so as to kill him when he made a mistake, so he praised him for his demeanor back then! ”
"Really?" Wang Xu didn't have much joy on his face, and he took the secret letter but didn't look at it, but carried it behind him. "I have been carefully cultivated since I was a child, the best martial arts practice, the best reading, the best civil and martial arts teacher, everything you need is satisfied, if you can't even do this, then he won't be able to take my position in the future!"
Because there is no one else at this time, Guo Jia, who knows Wang Xu's character well, is more like his friend and chatters.
"The lord is too harsh on the young master, after all, he is only fifteen years old, and it is extraordinary to have such an appearance as he is now!"
"Perhaps!" Wang Xu was noncommittal, turned around and strolled forward again.
"What kind of general did he behead the Hu people?"
Guo Jia followed up and said: "The two heroes of the Baihuwen tribe of Donghu King of Liangzhou! ”
"Haoshuai? He killed it alone? Wang Xu asked
"Exactly, it's just a little trick, it's a hunt!"
"Anyway, if you win, you win, if it's Hu Renhao, then he's barely qualified!" Wang Xu still understands the martial arts of the Hu people, when he traveled the world, he came into contact with many Hu people of different tribes in the north, although there are high and low between the heroes, but at least they are not weak.
It's just that at this time, Wang Xu still couldn't see an obvious smile on his face, Guo Jia noticed that he had something on his mind, and after thinking about it for a while, he guessed and said: "The lord is not in a good mood today, I don't know if he is still thinking about General Zhou Zhi?" ”
With the words, Wang Xu suddenly paused, took a deep breath, and then leisurely looked at the night sky in the distance, speechless for a long time.
Guo Jia has also been silently accompanying him, never moving a single inch.
"Fengxiao, are there still rumors circulating in the army recently?"
"My lord, it's no wonder that the soldiers spread that General Zhou suddenly disappeared with the army guards when he was about to fight, and there was no trace, which will inevitably cause everyone to speculate!"
"But Zhou Zhi can't and won't betray me!"
Wang Xu turned his head suddenly, and his voice was slightly raised, revealing the hidden excitement in his heart under his calm face.
"Over the years, if Zhou Zhi wants to betray, there are countless opportunities, if he hadn't saved me several times in my early years, I would have died a long time ago! The injuries on his body, there are also a few reasons to save me that caused him to be so strict, he has not betrayed for so many years, and now everyone has come to this point, and he has not lived for a few years, but he abandoned his family and betrayed me? Is this possible? ”
"Impossible!" Guo Jia said affirmatively, and then continued to comfort: "My lord, the high-level officials of the DPRK and the central government all think that it is impossible for Zhou Zhi to betray, and there is no reason to betray!" ”
"But why did he disappear like that?" Wang Xu's face was full of doubts, and he was even a little dazed.
"Such a big barracks, under the noses of so many soldiers, why didn't anyone have an accident, but he had an accident? Now I can't see anyone. There is no body to be seen. How do I do that? Now I don't even know if I need to save him. Dazed! ”
"Don't worry, the Spy Department and the thief Cao have already tried their best to investigate this matter, and there should be a conclusion soon!"
Guo Jia hurriedly comforted him, he knew the relationship between Wang Xu and Zhou Zhi, the two had been friends since they were teenagers, and they had been fighting for nearly thirty years, coming in the wind and going in the rain. Eat a bowl of rice, you block the sword for me, I block the sword for you, entrust your life, and you are the closest on weekdays, even Zhou Zhi and Zhang Jing are the only people in Chu who are not big or small with Wang Xu, but they never make Wang Xu really angry.
is not only his brother who shares life and death, but also his closest friend, although they have not written Jinlan, they have a fate in their previous lives. Loyal and brave to pay the people, love and righteousness are stronger than gold!
That kind of feeling. No one can understand it.
Neither of them spoke again, strolling quietly through the night......
Three days later, the acting general Chen went to attack the Jieting Pass, but he could not enter an inch.
There are two roads for the army to enter Xiliang in the middle road, one is Longguan and the other is Street Pavilion.
The terrain of Longguan is dangerous, the pass is magnificent, the Ma family sent heavy troops to garrison, if you want to take it in a short period of time, it is impossible, in this way, the relatively flat and open terrain of the street pavilion is the passage that Wang Xu is eager to take, if the street pavilion is not broken, the 200,000 troops in the middle road will not be able to enter Liangzhou at all, let alone other deployments and break the enemy.
With the fierce attack on the third day, Chen Zhi's offensive on the front line made no progress, Wang Xu was very dissatisfied, and immediately sent the hussar general Zhao Yun to personally lead the headquarters Yanyun Iron Cavalry and 5,000 elite soldiers to support, and ordered to take the street pavilion within ten days.
After another five days, the army still did not make any progress, and the battle report was transmitted to Yangcheng again, and Zhao Yun personally wrote a letter to admonish that the street pavilion was extremely difficult to overcome, and the army of Jianyi changed to fight in the north, out of Qi County, and fought stability.
Wang Xu got the report and was furious when the Chinese army was discussing the big tent.
"It's just a street pavilion, the terrain is open, and the enemy's military district has 20,000 people guarding several passes, why can't even one pass be broken so far, what kind of battle is this? What are Zhao Yun and Chen Zhi doing on the front line? Switching to stability? The army will travel hundreds of miles, and the strategic deployment will all be renegotiated, Zhao Yun and Chen Zhi will simply come back here to take command, I plan to go to the front line! ”
"The Lord is angry!" Guo Jia quickly got up and comforted: "General Zhao and General Chen don't know that there are heavy troops stationed in Majiatun in Anding, so they will have this advice!" ”
"Humph! Stability is the place where the Ma family raised troops, it is its fundamental place, the people return to their hearts, and the heavy troops are stationed, if the street pavilion can't be taken, do you still expect to be able to attack stability? What a joke! Wang Xu has also been very angry recently, and he scolded loudly.
Guo Jia frowned, and replied hesitantly: "Lord, if not, let your subordinates go to the front line of the street pavilion to see the situation!" ”
"No, you are now in control of the whole situation, many things in that plan need to be handled by you personally, if you go to the front line, it will be difficult to contact Zhang Liao and Gao Shun in time to make a layout, you can't leave!" Wang Xu shook his head.
"My lord, the last general asks to lead troops to assist General Zhao!" Yan Liang pleaded for his life.
Wang Xu waved his hand: "You have an important task in a few days!" ”
"Huh? What task? Yan Liang was stunned.
"I'll find out in a few days, it's useless to talk about it now!" Wang Xu said, already turning his head to look at Liao Hua. "Yuan Jian, you take another 5,000 elite soldiers to the street pavilion, and at the same time tell Zhao Yun and Chen Dao that if they can't beat the street pavilion, they will always stay there! They'll see what I mean! ”
"No!"
Liao Hua got up to answer the order, and was about to turn around and go out to count the troops, but the shouts of the guards suddenly came from outside the tent.
"Report to the King of Chu! Wudu Taishou Yang Fu took Jiang Xu to ask for a meeting, and said that there was something important to report! ”
"Oh? Yang Fu persuaded Jiang Xu? ”
Finally hearing some good news, Wang Xu had a smile on his face.
"Biography!"
After a while, Yang Fu took Jiang Xu and walked slowly into the tent, and bowed together: "The minister (general) Yang Fu (Jiang Xu) pays a visit to the King of Chu!" ”
"Excuse me!" Wang Xu smiled and waved his hand.
"King Xie Chu!" The two men got up and stood respectfully in the tent.
Wang Xu looked at it and said quite happily: "Jiang Xu, tomorrow you will follow General Yan Liang to get acquainted with all parties, and make arrangements after a while, rest assured, if you do your best, this king will not treat you badly!" ”
"Thank you, King Chu!" Jiang Xu Shane.
Yang Fu then arched his hand and said, "Lord! Bo Yi has realized that the mistakes of the past are forgetting the big righteousness for the sake of small righteousness, and now he repents and falls into the same heart, and now he has something to report! ”
"Oh? I don't know what? ”
Jiang Xu and Yang Fu glanced at each other, and then with Yang Fu's encouragement, they took a deep breath and replied: "King Qichu, I don't know if the army of Chu is still standing still in the street pavilion!" ”
Wang Xu thought about it, but still didn't hide it. "Yes, the street pavilion has indeed not been won yet!"
"King Chu, if you want to break the street pavilion, you must first try to get rid of the two, otherwise it will be difficult to overcome!" (To be continued......)
