Chapter 607: Take Guangling
"Zhao Yuanda invited me to a banquet?" Sitting in the military tent, Zhen Rong was stunned.
"Exactly." Zhenrong's subordinates replied.
"Wen Ping is a thief general, quite strategic, although he retreated more than 300 miles this time, he did not show decline, if he took advantage of my drunkenness and was unprepared, he came to cover up, what can he do?" Zhen Rong reprimanded.
"Zhao envoy Jun Yan, Wen Ping retired from the army, but did not want to attack the ear, the army retreated three hundred miles, the consumption is huge, it is bound to be slightly repaired, and it will not come to attack immediately, this is the opportunity to steal leisure, so that the king said, the lord can order the soldiers to strengthen the camp, and he will send a material to help, and the lord can only enter the city to go to the banquet." The subordinate replied.
"Zhao Yu has a discussion with Ke'er, he knows about military affairs, and he doesn't go." He waved his hand.
The subordinates had no choice but to leave as promised.
"Stupid man, if it weren't for someone to save him, he would have died at the hands of Wen Ping, and he still talked about military aircraft and jokes." Zhen Rong muttered unhappily.
There is a reason why Zhen Rong is not happy, he escaped too hurriedly this time, Chen Deng, the bastard, actually lied to him, saying that Cao Cao would take Pi all the way from the other, so frightened that Zhen Rong fled in a hurry, and he lost a lot of money this escape.
Even the gold on the body of the Buddha statue, he didn't have time to scrape it off, how much did he lose, and along the way, his heart was dripping blood.
Of course, scraping the golden body of the Buddha can only be done secretly, and it is absolutely not good to do it in front of the believers, otherwise he will be overthrown and killed by the angry believers immediately, but the news he heard before, Cao Jun was very far away from him, and he still had time to loot all the property that could be taken away, but Chen Deng's false news hurt him, and he was so frightened that he had to flee in a hurry, and he walked all the way, hoping that after Cao Jun left Pengcheng, he would go west to Liu Xuan.
He didn't dare to take refuge in Changtian, there were some festivals before, because of the existence of the Luoxia Water Army, he didn't even dare to sit on the boat, so he could only take the land route.
If he wasn't afraid that Wen Ping would break Guangling and then kill him, he wouldn't have helped Zhao Yu.
Dinner? He went to the feast, what to do with those possessions? Zhen Rong sneered at Zhao Yu's overtures.
Zhao Yu is an honest man, in his concept he has received the favor of others, and he has to repay it, Zhenrong's refusal did not discourage Zhao Yu's enthusiasm, he personally brought wine and meat, went out of the city for several miles to Zhenrong's camp, and rewarded Zhenrong's men.
"Thanks to Gong Zhen's rescue this time, otherwise Yu would not have been spared." Zhao Yu and Zhenrong were warmly polite, and their words were full of gratitude.
Zhen Rong has been perfunctory, chatting with each other, and after being full of wine and food, Zhao Yu got up and said goodbye and left.
Zhen Rong nodded and said, "This person doesn't owe a lot of courtesy." ”
Then the next day, Zhao Yu came again and brought a lot of wine and meat again, this time he also brought 5,000 gold as a thank you gift for helping Zhenrong.
Zhao Yu is generous, the treasury in Guangling City is very rich, five thousand gold is only a small part, but this money is not his, it is the imperial court, and now the court is not connected, it is the state pastor, only the county guard who is not satisfied with the state pastor can take it for himself.
And Xia Pi is not so rich, Di Rong to hold a Buddha meeting, the money spent is usually in hundreds of millions, although he is in control of the three counties of Caoyun, but also can not afford such expenses, Xia Pi Treasury has already lost a lot, which is why he never forgets to pull gold from the Buddha statue.
Zhenrong's eyes were hot, and he smiled very enthusiastically, and after a banquet, Zhao Yu praised and thanked Zhenrong again.
So Hu Rongrong gradually began to look forward to what Zhao Yu would bring tomorrow.
However, on the third day, Zhao Yu did not come.
"Well, why didn't Zhao Yuanda come today? and said, "I invite him to a feast." Zhen Rong asked.
Soon his subordinates came back, and said to Zhen Rong: "Back to the lord, Zhao envoy Jun Yan, the literary appointment should not be underestimated, you must prevent him from stealing the camp, and you must not set up a banquet again. ”
"Humph! Incompetent people, talk about misleading the country, a certain camp has been consolidated, the soldiers and armor are complete, how can Wenpin dare to attack? How long will it take to hold the ground? At that time, the thief will come in person, who can stop it? Stupid. Zhen Rong said disdainfully, when he first established the camp, he was naturally afraid that Wen Ping would come to fight, and with a two-day buffer time, it had already been reinforced, how could he be afraid of Wen Ping.
Zhen Rong has been waiting for the news that Cao Jun has left Pengcheng, so that he can run west, how dare he stay and face Changtian, who can stop it, there is only a dead end to stay here.
Zhen Rong felt more and more that staying here was not a way, maybe Changtian would come over at some point, and he wouldn't be able to run away when the time came.
"The army of thieves doesn't know when to leave! Bring the wine! Zhen Rong said indignantly.
Soon the unhappy Zhenrong got drunk, and then Wen Ping came.
"Kill!" Wen Ping rushed into the camp gate first, which had been opened by the stolen camp soldiers.
The drunken Zhenrong was awakened, and after seeing the chaos in the camp, he panicked, rolled up some items, and fled directly.
Seeing Zhao Yu who was on fire, he was secretly annoyed that Zhenrong didn't listen to his advice, and was hired by Wen, if there was a precaution, even if he couldn't beat the brave and warlike Wenpin, he would not be a big loss.
"Alas! The matter has come to this, follow me out of the city and try my best to save Zhenrong! Zhao Yu drew his sword and shouted.
Zhen Rong only cared about fleeing for his life at this time, and he couldn't take care of his belongings, so he was surrounded by guards and fled to Guangling City.
After meeting Zhao Yu, Di Rong was relieved, but then Wen Ping, who came to cover up, made him have no master, and in the end, it was the Guangling soldiers and Zhen Rong's soldiers, and the two sides worked together to fight and retreat, so that Zhao Yu and Zhen Rong escaped under Wen Ping's gun.
"If it weren't for the lord's words first, leaving Zhao Yu's life, today would be the death of the two." Wen Ping said coldly.
"General, how is it now?"
"This time the enemy army was defeated, the morale was completely lost, the soldiers had no fighting spirit, and tomorrow the siege was missing one, and persuasion to surrender could be achieved." Wen Pingdao.
Wen Ping expected that Zhao Yu had no way out, it was difficult to defend Guangling, even if he held it, when Changtian came, he still couldn't escape death, if he let Zhen Rong and Zhao Yu continue to help each other like this, it would be really difficult for him to win, and when the time came, he didn't take Guangling, but let Zhao Yu achieve a reputation, and with the capital to bargain in front of Changtian, wouldn't he Wen Zhongye become a laughing stock, how could Wen Ping be willing.
Now it's different, the horns have been removed, Guangling has become a lonely city again, there are no reinforcements outside, there is no will to fight inside, he must take Guangling according to the military order, so if Zhao Yu is stubborn and stubborn, then the casualty figure of the soldiers after this is a sharp blade on Zhao Yu's neck.
Defending a city that will inevitably fall, so that Changtian will pay a greater price, so after Zhao Yu faces Changtian, it is difficult to say whether he is dead or alive, Wen Ping believes that Zhao Yu will not ignore this issue.
Zhao Yu is indeed thinking about this problem, at this moment, he does not blame Zhen Rong's stupidity, he only blames himself for being a little greedy and unlucky, but at this time, it is still too late to surrender to Wenpin, the situation has not reached the point where it can not be controlled, Zhao Yu decided to surrender tomorrow.
The reason why it is tomorrow and not now is because he doesn't know what Zhen Rong means, if Zhen Rong is unwilling to surrender, then he must send Ji Rong out of Guangling before dawn, this is what he must do, after all, Zhen Rong helped him after all.
Zhao Yu went out of the city guard mansion and prepared to visit Zhenrong overnight to ask for his opinion.
Because of the previous defeat in Guangling City, the people were panicked, because they were afraid that Wenpin would attack the city overnight, and most of the soldiers climbed to the top of the city, looking nervously at the dark outside of the city.
The city was extremely deserted, Zhao Yu didn't bring a few guards, and walked directly towards Zhenrong's temporary residence, he pushed the door straight in, ready to meet Zhenrong, however, he was never able to come out of this door.
"Humph! Fool, if it weren't for you, I wouldn't have ended up in this field! Zhen Rong looked at Zhao Yu on the ground with a hideous face, and drew the sword pierced in Zhao Yu's chest while scolding.
Wen Ping's attack on the camp made him almost bankrupt, and Zhenrong was extremely angry.
"Go, light fire to the city everywhere, and the others will follow me to the treasury!" Di Rong gave an order and began to loot the treasury of Guangling City.
Then Zhen Rong was there, and before seeing Wen Ping, who came after the fire in the city, he escaped from Guangling City and fled quickly to the west, and he was ready to take refuge in Pengcheng Prime Minister Xue Li first.
Although Wen Ping was furious, but the firefighting was a big matter, and after receiving the surrender of the Guangling generals, they started to extinguish the fire together, and they had no time to chase Zhenrong, so they could only let him flee to Pengcheng.
