"The Son of Heaven was furious, and millions of corpses were ambushed."
After Xu Shiji saw the edict written to him by Li Chongjiu, he said such a sentence and passed it on to Wang Bo and Meng Haigong at the moment.
Meng Haigong was illiterate, and only Wang Bo looked at the edict and pinched his beard and smiled: "Take the heads of Xu's father and son in ten days, Xu Yuanlang really doesn't know." ”
Wang Bo just said this lightly, but the younger brother of Meng Haigong, Meng Qi, said: "It's not just wishful thinking, it's just a snake swallowing an elephant,"
Jiang Shanhe and other generals also nodded together: "I am willing to lead my subordinates as the vanguard in this siege." ”
After Jiang Shanhe spoke, Meng Qigui and other generals in the tent all echoed one after another, but this scene made the generals of the government army under Xu Shiji puzzled one by one. When did these people become so brave, doesn't it mean that the combat effectiveness of these adapted rebels is not good.
Meng Haigong smiled bitterly on his face, and said in his heart that these people fight on weekdays, and they hide the family wealth in their hands, and they push back when attacking the city. Today is so positive, obviously seeing that they have now won the position of the king of the county, they also want to fight for a future for their new master.
Old, old, Meng Haigong couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
At this time, Meng Haigong looked, but saw that Wang Bo also showed a helpless look. Meng Haigong finally showed a little happiness in his heart, and the two have always been unfriendly. When Wang Bozhi saw Meng Haigong's expression, he snorted lightly between his noses and stopped talking.
Xu Shiji said: "Everyone, there is no way to attack the city, Yanzhou City is not easy to attack, let me go first." ”
As soon as Xu Shiji's words fell, Jiang Shanhe and the other generals all shook their heads, looking like they didn't agree. Continue to ask Xu Shiji to fight.
In the end, Xu Shiji smiled and said, "Okay, since that's the case, Xu will push it back." It chilled the hearts of the soldiers. Yesterday I saw Yanzhou City, which has been in business for many years. In order to attack, it is necessary to find its weak point. ”
Meng Qi said: "General Xu, I think the east side of this city is shorter and the city wall is older, can you throw your troops into this strong attack." ”
The general under the command of Xu Shiji said: "General, our army's eight cannons and barberry crossbows have been transported yesterday, and I will be equipped in Dongcheng, but Xu Yuanlang knows the weakness of this city, so he will be equipped with heavy troops to guard Dongcheng......"
Xu Shiji nodded.
Xu Shiji looked at Meng Hai and said, "What is the high opinion of the county king?" ”
Meng Haigong rubbed his palms and said with a smile: "Where does this king have any high opinions." Let's listen to the general's orders. ”
Xu Shiji smiled and said, "King Mengjun heard that you and Xu Yuanlang had a good relationship in the past, right?" ”
Meng Haigong got up from the chair when he heard this, and said with cold sweat oozing from his forehead: "General, when I was just transferred to Shandong, I had a few fates, who still remembers that little bit of broken friendship." Lone's loyalty to His Majesty is known to everyone. ”
Xu Shiji smiled and said, "Don't worry, don't worry, what if you don't know Xu Yuanlang well?" King of Linzi, do you have an old relationship with Xu Yuanlang? ”
Wang Bo smiled and said quietly on his face: "When I crossed the Yellow River and went to Hebei, I borrowed a boat from Xu Yuanlang. It can be regarded as a friendship, I don't know if he remembers it after so many years. ”
Xu Shiji clasped his palms together and said with a smile: "It seems that this matter still needs to fall on the King of Linzi." ”
When night fell, the torches on the city of Yanzhou were bright, and the soldiers of the Xu family at the head of the city were cruising back and forth with torches. Everyone knows that this battle is a matter of life and death. Therefore, they dare not slack off. Especially on the first night of Zhao Jun's camp, it was difficult for the recruits and soldiers in the Xu army to sleep, and they were worried from the bottom of their hearts. I was afraid that the Zhao army would come to attack at night.
A gang leader led his subordinates to patrol a section of the women's wall and check that the tripwires hanging from the wall were correct. said to the soldiers behind him: "Give me a good start, watch it tightly." If there is a battle tomorrow, if one of the three escapes, the whole team will be killed, and if the nine-person team escapes two people, the whole team will be killed...... Wait! ”
When the gang commander gave an order, the soldiers under his command all raised their guns, and some of the timid ones actually had straight legs and stomachs.
"I seem to hear the sound of water under the city!" As soon as the captain's voice fell, the worried soldier suddenly couldn't even hold the gun steadily.
Zhao Jun ...... It's definitely coming at night. ”
"Shut up. Silence me. ”
At this time, a voice came from the city: "I am Wang Bomi's envoy, and I beg to see Mr. Xu, and quickly put down the hanging basket." ”
Sergeant Xu listened and looked at each other.
"Who is Wang Bo?"
"Fool, it's Chishiro! Find the basket. ”
In the middle of the night, Xu Yuanlang hadn't fallen asleep yet, and when he thought of the matter of descending Zhao, he couldn't help but hesitate to make up his mind. Xu Yuanlang was originally from Yanzhou, a poor young man, and was wanted by the government for stealing the cattle of the landlord in the village, so he went into the mountains to steal. One year, the Yellow River was flooded, and the imperial court was defeated in Liaodong, and the people in the county were panicked.
Xu Yuanlang immediately led a group of thieves down the mountain to attack the landlord's house to take revenge on the old hatred. When Xu Yuanlang broke the landlord's dock fort and killed the landlord in front of him, he was overjoyed and embarked on the road of chaos.
Xu Yuanlang thought of this, and a shadow suddenly appeared in his mind, it was the woman he liked when he was young, and she was the daughter of the county commander of the city. When I was a poor teenager, I had delusions. When he broke through the county office, he saw the other party commit suicide by throwing himself into the water in front of him. Although Xu Yuanlang is looking for all kinds of women in the future, he will never be able to make up for the regrets of his youth.
In addition to this regret, in Xu Yuanlang's memory, he kept killing people, killing officers and soldiers, killing rebels, killing people, and killing disobedient subordinates. Later, he had power and territory, but he was tired of killing. Later, he took refuge in Li Mi, who killed too many people with himself, and needed to be restrained.
Xu Yuanlang saw Li Mi's side, and admired him for his five-body throw, so he listened to Li Mi's words and began to converge. Xu Yuanlang also learned from Li Mi to recruit some scholars to work for him. Following the advice of his subordinates, he also learned from the Wagang army to reduce taxes and food in order to gain the support of the people. Later, after Li Mi was defeated by Wang Shichong, Xu Yuanlang was also in Yanzhou, and Dongping gained a firm foothold.
At that time, Wang Shichong intended to attack Yanzhou, but seeing that Xu Yuanlang's troops were strong and strong, Wang Shichong was appointed as the governor of Yanzhou to Xu Yuanlang and decide the matter of Shandong. Later, Wang Shichong killed the young lord and became the emperor, Xu Yuanlang saw that Wang Shichong was unreliable, and frequently changed the court, defected to Li Yuan, and also voted for Liu Heimin.
Although Xu Yuanlang is a wall grass on the surface, he changed the door just to keep Yanzhou independent. Now that Li Chongjiu's soldiers and horses have hit the city of Yanzhou, Xu Yuanlang is unwilling to really surrender in his heart.
Xu Yuanlang thought of this, but listened to the advice of his subordinates: "Zhao Junzhishilang's envoy sneaked into the city in the middle of the night. ”
Xu Yuanlang was stunned for a moment.
Jiang Shanhe in the governor's mansion lowered his body and said to Xu Yuanlang: "This is how the chief manager happened, Zhi Shilang can't get used to Li Chongjiu's treacherous behavior, so he sent down to remind the chief manager to be careful." ”
Xu Yuanlang clasped his hands in front of his chest, he came back to his senses from the shock of Fang Cai, he didn't expect that Li Chongjiu would be reluctant to give him even a king.
Xu Yuanlang sat down again and said: "It's not the first time that Li Chongjiu has been treacherous, he thinks I'm Wang Shichong, just an edict, you can deceive me into offering the city, and then turn your face and kill me Xu Yuanlang, hum, but ...... But I don't have any friendship with Chishiro, so why should he take such a risk to remind me. ”
Jiang Shanhe said: "What does Manager Xu think? At the beginning, the Zhao army hit Qi County, and the soldiers came to the city, and Yu Shinan, the envoy of Zhao State, said that if Zhi Shilang did not surrender, the whole county would be razed. Zhi Shilang can only be false and wronged, now Li Chongjiu is going to attack the general, if it is a dignified and upright city on the battlefield, it will be enough, if you have to deceive and surrender, and then betray your faith to slaughter the city, such a thing, people with a conscience will not do it, so Zhi Shilang decided to tell the general manager, don't fall for Li Chongjiu's tricks. ”
Xu Yuanlang listened to Jiang Shanhe's words, and he remembered that when he attacked Dongping County, the city was attacked for three days and three nights.
The soldiers of the county in the city resisted very tenaciously, and their own men and horses were killed and wounded countless times, and the soldiers cried and begged Xu Yuanlang to retreat. Xu Yuanlang also knew that he had no spare strength to attack the city again, but he pulled the banner to the city to all the defenders of the city, swearing that if the city surrendered now, he would only take money and food to protect the people in the city. And if the city does not surrender, after the city is broken, he will slaughter the city, leaving no men, women, old and children.
The city was silent, and Xu Yuanlang remembered that it was his most difficult moment, as long as it was a quarter of an hour, he would ride his horse and lead his men away, waiting for him to be either killed by Zhang Xutuo or swallowed up by other rebels.
Xu Yuanlang waited for a long time, and the city gate finally opened. Jun Cheng walked out with the soldiers guarding the city and countryside with their heads in their hands, and Xu Yuanlang cut off the head of Jun Cheng with a knife. Then Xu Yuanlang's subordinates rushed into the city, killed people when they saw them, and the blood flowed through the streets.
Treachery, Xu Yuanlang has done a lot, so Li Chongjiu is the same. The other party is a more uncompromising figure than him, and who is not in this position.
"Steward."
Xu Yuanlang came back to his senses and looked at Jiang Shanhe and said, "Thanks to Zhishilang's reminder, otherwise I, Xu, would have become a ghost under the knife." ”
Jiang Shanhe stepped forward and said, "Manager Xu, since Li Chongjiu is unkind and unjust, we might as well cooperate with the outside and the outside." ”
"This." Xu Yuanlang's eyelids jumped and he didn't speak.
Jiang Shanhe took a step forward and said: "Chief Xu, this is our only chance, the Zhao army outside the city is powerful, and there are eight cannons, barberry crossbows and other sharp weapons to break the city, although the city wall of Yanzhou is strong, but it can withstand a few days." Combining inside and outside is the only way out, and in this way, Zhishilang can also act without looking at Li Chongjiu's face. ”
Xu Yuanlang listened and asked, "What about Meng Haigong?" How did he plan to do it? ”
Jiang Shanhe sighed and said: "Meng Gong is determined to follow Li Chongjiu, and a county king will buy him, Zhi Shilang doesn't dare to talk to him, for fear that it will be a bad thing." ”
Xu Yuanlang listened to it and said with a little relief: "It seems that at this time, only Zhishilang and I, Xu, are unwilling to be dogs." But it's not that I'm suspicious, I really can't trust Zhishilang. ”
Jiang Shanhe heard it and said angrily: "Manager Xu, Zhi Shilang kindly ordered me to report the news, but you can't believe it, this is too much to live up to Zhi Shilang's kindness." How are you a person who does great things? ”
