Although Yang Yuanqing led his army to the outside of Jiangdu, he had no intention of attacking the city, and the Sui army lost too many troops in the Sui Turbulent War, and he did not want to pay a heavy price.

More importantly, whether it is the Sui army or the Wei army, a soldier is a young and strong laborer, who can contribute to the economic recovery of the Great Sui, which is especially important after the war when the population is scarce.

On the army to fight, Yang Yuanqing has given up the idea of bloody battles and fierce battles, and is more to use stratagem to win the victory, he has now taken advantage of the general trend, and the army that surrenders without a fight is the most ideal result.

The Sui army outside the city was just putting pressure on the city and increasing the psychological burden on the soldiers on the city, and after an hour of arranging the troops, the Sui army began to set up a large camp by the canal, and the tents stood up one after another, arranged neatly, and the white tents were particularly dazzling in the sunlight.

In the tent, Yang Yuanqing opened a Jiangdu city defense map, which was given to him by a Sui army spy in Jiangyang County, and the Jiangdu city defense map detailed the Wei army's deployment and loopholes, after all, the Wei army only had more than 10,000 people, and it was a bit of a stretch to defend the Jiangdu city with a circumference of nearly 60 miles, and it was inevitable that there would be loopholes.

This is a bit like the situation during the sneak attack on Chang'an City, there are at least three loopholes marked on the map, one is that the water gate is almost undefended, one is in disrepair on the west side, and the city gate can be easily broken open with heavy siege weapons, and the other is that there are too few defenders, and the method of attacking the west with sound can be used to attack the city head at the least cost.

Next to him, Xie Yingdeng became a little excited, "Your Highness, attack from the Water Gate!" The humble post will definitely be able to capture the Jiangdu City. ”

Yang Yuanqing shook his head with a smile and said: "Don't worry, there should be changes in the city, I hope Jiangdu City can open the door and surrender by itself, instead of using siege methods, if you don't surrender tomorrow." It's never too late to storm the city. ”

"Humble duty understood."

Yang Yuanqing walked to the big tent with his hands behind his back and looked at Jiangdu City, he believed that all the forces in Jiangdu City were brewing changes, it was better to give them a little more time to brew, and he would harvest better wine......

Night gradually fell, the Sui army never attacked the city, and the 10,000 defenders on the city were worried for a day, and became tired as night fell. Quite a few soldiers hid in the corners and slept.

The junior officers gathered together and whispered. Discussing the current situation and discussing their respective futures, in fact, everyone understands that when Jiangyang Cang is lost, Li Mi is basically gone.

In the barracks, Bing Yuan really ordered three tables of wine banquets. A pre-war banquet was given to more than 20 middle and senior generals above the rank of partial general, which was the tradition of the Wagang Army, before the war. If the three armies want to eat and drink, it will be the last meal of severed wine, of course. If you can return triumphantly, you should also have a dinner to celebrate.

It's just that now it's no longer the Wagang Army, and this tradition of guillotine has been banned by Li Mi, and Bing Yuanzhen can only take advantage of Li Mi's absence to invite the generals to drink it.

"Generals!"

Bing Yuanzhen raised the wine bowl high. To everyone: "This is the old tradition of our Wagang Army, maybe everyone finally got together to drink, for the sake of our fate of fighting together for many years, everyone drank this bowl of wine." ”

"Drink!"

The sorrow in the hearts of the generals was ignited by the three words 'Wagang Army', and they drank the wine with a bowl of wine, Zhang Tongren frowned slightly, and ordered the generals: "The Sui army may attack the city tonight, everyone can stop in moderation, and don't drink too much." ”

All the generals have a sullen face, and when they drink, they hate someone to ruin the fun, but Zhang Tongren is the main general, although everyone is dissatisfied, but they don't dare not listen, there are a few officers who are about to pour wine from the wine jar, so they have to put the wine jar down again, and everyone changes it to a small cup, and drinks the stuffy wine one by one.

Bing Yuanzhen approached Zhang Tongren and lowered his voice: "I also invited Huang Yanlou's Oiran Jade Lady, since it is inconvenient, do you want to send her back?" ”

Bing Yuan is very scheming, he knows Zhang Tongren's weaknesses well, he knows that Zhang Tongren's biggest problem is that he is good, and he can use beauty tricks to deal with him.

Zhang Tongren's heart was 'pounding! 'The ground jumped, the jade lady is beautiful, and she is very famous in Jiangdu City, but she is Li Mi's personal favorite, the last time Li Mi set up a banquet to entertain the generals, and ordered the jade lady to dance a song for everyone, Zhang Tongren was fascinated, although he had the heart to touch, but he did not dare to anger Li Mi.

Now that Li Mi is not here, Bing Yuanzhen brought the Jade Lady again, how could he not be moved, he swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and asked in a low voice while everyone was not paying attention: "Where is she now?" ”

"It's hidden in the clerical room, but she can't stay long, and if the general is not interested, I'll send her away."

Zhang Tongren drank a bowl of wine, the wine rose, and Sè's heart was moved, so he squinted and smiled: "Then I'll go and take a look, and then send her away in half an hour." ”

He got up and walked out of the room, and walked quickly to the clerk's room not far away, there was a small soldier standing at the door of the clerk's room, with thin eyebrows and apricot eyes, Zhang Tongren recognized it at a glance, this is a young woman dressed as a maid, it is estimated that it is the maid of the jade lady, he smiled, reached out and pinched the maid's face, pushed the door and entered the house.

There was a faint fragrance in the room, this is the fragrance of women's fat powder, Zhang Tongren took a deep breath, the aroma was intoxicating, and his heart beat faster, yù was on fire, and he walked into the back room quickly.

The light in the inner room was dim, and a little moonlight shed in through the crack in the window, making the room hazy, and I saw a woman in a long skirt sitting on the couch, wearing a hat, and her face was covered by a faint light veil, so that she could not see clearly.

Zhang Tongren didn't have any doubts at this time, he was so angry in his heart that he swallowed a mouthful of saliva, threw off his robe, and smiled in a low voice, "Let the beauty wait for a long time!" ”

Zhang Tongren opened his arms and pounced, and at this moment, a tall black shadow suddenly appeared behind him, covering his mouth, and a snow-bright dagger appeared in his hand......

At the moment when Zhang Tongren was covered in his mouth, the jade lady sitting on the couch also got up suddenly, pounced on him, and a sharp spur was fiercely inserted into Zhang Tongren's heart.

Zhang Tongren fell to the ground, his throat was cut, he couldn't scream, he twisted in pain, and he lost his breath in a moment.

The 'Jade Lady' took off her hat, but it was not a woman, but Wang Shunyuan dressed up. He and the man in black worked together, lifted the lid of the couch, stuffed the body into the couch, and wiped the blood stains clean, then called back to the maid at the door, and the three jumped out of the back window and quickly left the barracks.

In the banquet room, the officers were still drinking and eating. Zhang Tongren went for a long time. But there was no trace, and at this time, Bing Yuanzhen walked back and smiled at everyone: "General Zhang is loyal to his duty and went to inspect the city defense, so that everyone can go back to their respective garrisons after drinking." Let's ignore him, let's drink it happily! ”

Zhang Tongren is gone, and the generals are like wild horses without a halter. He began to drink happily, in large bowls, and in large gulps of meat. Noisy and noisy, lively and unusual.

There was a large amount of wine, and Bing Yuanzhen ordered people to send dozens of jars of wine to the soldiers on duty in the barracks, and also sent a lot of roast chickens and ducks to drink, and the entire barracks was immersed in a frenzy of eating and drinking.

Half an hour later. Fan Wenchao led more than 700 of his subordinates to rush into the barracks, the barracks were full of drunken soldiers, the smell of alcohol was smoky, drunk in various postures behind the corner of the house, Bing Yuanzhen sent a little bit of wine naturally put something in it, even if he only drank a bowl of wine to keep out the cold, he would be drunk like mud.

Fan Wenchao sneered, turned around and ordered: "Close the camp gate!" ”

More than a dozen soldiers closed the gate of the barracks, Fan Wenchao drew his war knife and ordered viciously: "Kill me!" Not a single one to stay! ”……

The south gate of Jiangdu City was guarded by 500 Wei troops, the general was called Chen Xun, who was called to the barracks more than an hour ago to drink the severed head wine, and never returned, and the soldiers stood for most of the day, all of them were exhausted, and they were looking for corners to rest, or sleep, or guessing the development of the war, and they were full of pessimism about their fate.

This is, Fan Wenchao led more than 700 men to come with a team, Fan Wenchao took the lead, beside him was Bing Yuanzhen, he held Zhang Tongren's arrow in his hand, Bing Yuanzhen urged him to step forward, and asked sharply: "Where is Chen Xun?" ”

The soldiers who were hiding in the city caves and corners of the wall to rest got up one after another, and a captain ran down from the city to answer: "Back to Bing Shangshu, General Chen was called to the barracks to drink, and he hasn't come back yet?" ”

"Nonsense! I'm just coming from the barracks, and the drinking has long since dispersed, where have the others gone? ”

Bing Yuan is really a veteran of the Wagang Army, he has always been extremely powerful, his attitude became stern, which made the captain a little scared, he estimated that Chen Xun took the opportunity to go home secretly, but he didn't dare to say, and hurriedly whispered: "Where did he go, the villain doesn't know, otherwise, let's go look for him." ”

"No, I'll send someone to find him."

Bing Yuanzhen raised the arrow and shouted: "General Zhang has an order, Chen Xun's department has changed to guard the water gate, and the south gate is guarded by General Fan. ”

The military order was like a mountain, and the captain did not dare to disobey, he took the order arrow, turned back and shouted to the soldiers: "Assemble all and follow me to the water gate." ”

Five hundred soldiers gathered one after another, followed the captain to the water gate located in the west of the city, Bing Yuanzhen and Fan Wenchao glanced at each other, both of them smiled proudly, many seemingly complicated things as long as the key points are solved, it will become extremely simple.

However, there was not much time left for them, and Bing Yuanzhen immediately said to Wang Shunyuan: "Please General Wang go and report to His Highness, the south has been taken, please enter the city immediately!" ”

Wang Shunyuan was overjoyed and arched his hand, "Thank you two for your strong support, I will definitely report it truthfully." ”

He urged his horse to run towards the city gate, which was now open and the drawbridge lowered, and Wang Shunyuan's war horse rushed out of the city gate and ran towards the dreary night......

In front of the camp, Yang Yuanqing was in full armor, surrounded by more than a dozen generals, watching Jiangdu City from a distance, there has been no news from the spies in Jiangdu City so far, which means that they are in action, Yang Yuanqing is very clear about Bing Yuanzhen's status in the Wagang Army, if he goes all out, it will not be a big problem, if nothing else, there will be results tonight.

As soon as I thought of this, there was the sound of horses' hooves in the distance, and a knight was running towards this side, and a patrol had already greeted him, "Who is it?" ”

"I am Wang Shunyuan, the captain of the Jiangdu Intelligence Hall of the Internal Guard Army, and I have urgent information to report to His Highness."

Yang Yuanqing heard it clearly and nodded, "Bring him up!" ”

After a while, Wang Shunyuan was brought up, he turned over and dismounted, knelt down on one knee and reported: "Your Highness, the South City Gate has been taken over by Bing Yuanzhen and Fan Wenchao, Zhang Tongren and all the generals above the partial general have been killed, please Your Highness enter the Jiangdu City quickly." ”

Yang Yuanqing was overjoyed, and turned around and ordered Xie Yingdeng, "Take a thousand brothers to investigate!" ”

"Obey!"

Xie Yingdeng led a thousand soldiers to follow Wang Shunyuan to the city, and at this time, 30,000 Sui soldiers gathered one after another, ready to fight.

Not long after, Xie Yingdeng sent someone back to report, "Your Highness, the situation is true, the south city gate has been controlled by our army. ”

Sure enough, it didn't take any effort to get it, Yang Yuanqing breathed a long sigh of relief, and immediately issued an order, "The whole army enters Jiangdu City, the enemy army will try to capture as much as possible, and the people must not be disturbed, and those who violate the order will be beheaded!" ”…… (To be continued.)
