The Dongzhou army finally escaped to Dongsheng City. The city lord of Dongsheng City received Wei Changyong.

The city lord of Dongsheng City is surnamed Fu, and his name is Fu Pingsheng. He had the city gates open to welcome the defeated Dongzhou army into the city.

Looking at Wei Changyong, who was tired and wearing soldier armor, Fu Pingsheng asked, "Why is General Wei so embarrassed?"

Wei Changyong: "The imperial court did not follow tactics at all, and directly surrounded Donglai City with 500,000 people, and General Zhang Biao and General Li Wuyan were killed in battle. I was also fortunate that General Li Wuyan helped me break off the queen, so I was able to escape. ”

Fu Pingsheng: "The war in the east is so fierce?"

Wei Changyong: "Alas, it's hard to say, I want to go back and repay the prince." Tomorrow, if the imperial court attacks Dongsheng City, it will directly take the army to the next city, and the imperial court will be too difficult to deal with. ”

Fu Pingsheng: "General Wei, I'm just a civilian official, how can I lead soldiers."

Wei Changyong: "I will leave all the lieutenants behind, and you can command them." They know how to lead troops. ”

Fu Pingsheng: "That's good, that's good."

Wei Changyong: "Fu City Lord, tomorrow you don't have to fight with the imperial court no matter what, tomorrow as long as the imperial court has the intention of attacking the city, you will leave Dongsheng City."

Fu Pingsheng: "Is it really urgent?"

Wei Changyong: "Fu City Lord, listen to me." It was because of our carelessness today that we ended up like this. ”

Fu Pingsheng thought for a while: "Okay, I promise you."

Dongshengcheng was not important in the first place, it was Xu Ru who threw the bait to the imperial court, and Fu Pingsheng left early, and it didn't matter much.

Wei Changyong: "That's good." Fu City Lord, can you prepare some food for us? We've been running for a day. The rice did not enter, and the soldiers were hungry. ”

Fu Pingsheng: "I'm afraid we won't be able to cook a meal for 100,000 people."

Wei Changyong: "We have the Huotou Army, you only need to prepare materials."

Fu Pingsheng: "That's no problem, I'll arrange it."

The Dongzhou army, which had been on the run for a day, finally had dinner, and they didn't know what they would encounter tomorrow. All they knew was that when they faced the army of the imperial court again, they would die.

The Dongzhou army had already begun to fear the army of the imperial court, and this battle made them see the cruelty of the war.

The next day, before dawn, Wei Changyong left Dongsheng City, and he wanted to report all the simple things of yesterday to the king of Dongzhou County. After all, what happened yesterday was so unbelievable.

On the other side, from the east to the city.

Wei Changfeng came to Zhang Cheng's tent early. wanted to enter the camp directly, but was afraid that Zhang Cheng would still be angry. So it stopped where it was.

Zhang Cheng: "Come in."

Wei Changfeng walked over, and at this time, Zhang Cheng had recovered to his previous calm appearance.

Wei Changfeng: "Dao Chief, are you okay?"

Zhang Cheng: "It's okay."

Wei Changfeng: "That's good, that's good."

Zhang Cheng: "Don't stand here stupidly, continue to command the army to attack."

Wei Changfeng: "Dao Chief, don't you take a day off?"

Zhang Cheng: "No need to rest, the whole army didn't work hard yesterday, and the emperor."

The emperor doesn't have a lot of time left, and he must attack. ”

Wei Changfeng remembered Gu Yongshan: "Dao Chief, I understand."

Zhang Cheng: "Inform the whole army, continue the attack, and take Dongsheng City today."

Wei Changfeng: "Okay."

Zhang Cheng also wanted to end the war earlier, and then start a comprehensive reform and transform a feudal dynasty, and the difficulty was not half a star.

Next, Wei Changfeng continued to command the imperial army's army and began to march to Dongsheng City.

Time passed little by little, and the east rose into the city.

Fu Pingsheng had just received the news of the reconnaissance that the imperial army's army had been dispatched, and it was against Dongsheng City.

Fu Pingsheng: "Don't these people in the court rest?" Yesterday's high casualties didn't make the court feel tired? ”

Wei Changyong's lieutenant: "Fu City Lord, let's prepare to withdraw." Otherwise, Wei Changfeng will be ready to surround us again. ”

Fu Pingsheng: "Is the army of the imperial court really terrifying?"

Adjutant General: "I don't want to admit it, but I have to admit it." They are so god-like that we can't beat them. ”

Fu Pingsheng: "Can you tell me what happened yesterday?"

The adjutant general told what happened yesterday.

Fu Pingsheng: "How is it possible? How could the walls suddenly disappear, how could they not die? ”

Adjutant General: "We don't know, but that's the way it is."

Fu Pingsheng has lived for almost 100 years, and I have never heard of such a thing, it is simply contrary to common sense.

Adjutant General: "Who says it isn't, but the facts are in front of us, so we can't believe it."

Fu Pingsheng: "In this case, let's save our strength first, fortunately, last night, I had already packed up and saluted." Retreat, retreat to Falling Star City. ”

Adjutant General: "Okay, I'll go and command the army to retreat immediately."

Wei Changfeng was leading the army to Dongsheng City, and then the Dongzhou County King of Dongsheng City was already preparing to leave.

At this time, Zhang Cheng was riding on a horse, and Xunmu suddenly spoke: "Lord, the Dongzhou army in Dongsheng City is already preparing to leave?"

Zhang Cheng: "Ready to leave, so soon?" It seems that we were scared yesterday. If you leave, if you leave, there will be no casualties, that's exactly what I want to see. ”

Xun Mu: "Lord, do you need to notify Wei Changfeng?"

Zhang Cheng: "There's no need, he'll find out when he arrives in Dongsheng City, so why should I tell him in a hurry." But look at it this way. I'm supposed to stay overnight in Dongsheng City tonight. ”

Xunmu: "Guan Lord, do you mean that the speed of Wei Changfeng's attack is too slow?"

Zhang Cheng: "There is a little bit, but due to the limitations of the times, this speed is not slow."

An hour later, the Dongzhou army in Dongsheng City had already gone to the empty building. The residents of Dongsheng City took to the streets one after another, very puzzled by the departure of the Dongzhou army.

Some people who were more courageous even quietly entered the City Lord's Mansion, just to see if there was anyone else in the City Lord's Mansion.

However, in the entire City Lord's Mansion, there was not a single person. Fu Pingsheng took away all the people in the City Lord's Mansion.

After Wei Changfeng led the army to Dongsheng City, the gate of Dongsheng City was wide open, and there was not a single soldier guarding it.

Wei Changfeng: "Could it be a fraud, Zhan Tong, you lead 50,000 people to go first and have a look."

Zhan Tong: "The last general will obey orders."

There were less than 100,000 people in the entire Dongsheng City, and Zhan Tong led 50,000 people into it, which was not so easy to be destroyed. And with Zhan Tong's strength, he can also break through and report the situation.

At this time, the morale of the imperial army is at its peak, and there is no need to stop because of the possible empty city plan.

Zhan Tong led an army of 50,000 to rush directly into Dongsheng City. Wei Changfeng held them tightly, as soon as they gave the signal, all the remaining troops would launch an offensive like a flood.

Wei Changfeng: "Su Daqing, Chen Qiang, you lead 200,000 people to outflank and surround the entire Dongsheng City."

At this time, Zhang Cheng spoke: "There is no need, all the Dongzhou troops in Dongsheng City have been withdrawn, and this is just an empty city."

Wei Changfeng: "National teacher, really?"

Zhang Cheng: "Of course, Zhan Tong is about to come out, you can just ask him."

Sure enough, not long after Zhang Cheng finished saying this, Zhan Tong ran over on his lion.

Zhan Tong: "Qi Yu National Teacher, General Wei." Dongsheng City was already an empty city, and there were no Dongzhou troops in it except for a few residents of Dongsheng City. ”

Wei Changfeng: "You mean that Dongzhou's army has fled?"

Zhan Tong: "Yes."

Wei Changfeng: "Flee without a fight, these people are not worthy of being soldiers."

Zhang Cheng: "Isn't this a good thing for us?" Everything went according to plan, and we reduced casualties. ”

Wei Changfeng: "Thinking about it this way, it is indeed so. National teacher, your strategy is really clever. ”

Zhang Cheng: "Let's not talk about this for now, let's go to the city." Then put up a notice of peace of mind. ”

Wei Changfeng: "Dongsheng City is a bit small, I'm afraid it can't fit 500,000 people." Then a small number of people went into the city to post notices for the people. Tonight, they set up camp outside Dongsheng City. ”

Wei Changfeng: "I understand."

Next, Wei Changfeng sent Zhan Tong to Dongsheng City to post a notice of Anmin, and then left 5,000 people to guard Dongsheng City.

Next, the rest of the army was encamped outside Dongsheng City.

In the middle of the camp, Wei Changfeng looked at the map: "National Teacher, where do you estimate that Dongzhou's army will retreat?"

Zhang Cheng pointed to a city on the map and said, "Here."

Wei Changfeng: "Tung Chung City, I also think it's here."

Zhang Cheng: "Tung Chung City is the last city before Lintian Pass, and the Dongzhou army should be here to fight us head-on."

Wei Changfeng: "In terms of the combat effectiveness of the Dongzhou army, they are by no means our opponents. After breaking Tung Chung City, it is Lintian Pass. The Dongzhou army, it is estimated that it will be in Lintian Pass, do the final defense, as long as we conquer Lintian Pass, then Dongzhou will no longer have any natural danger to bear, and pacify Dongzhou is just around the corner. ”

Zhang Cheng: "Although the combat effectiveness of the Dongzhou army is indeed not high, but you still don't have to be careless, I estimate that Lintianguan is not so good."

Broken. ”

Wei Changfeng: "National teacher, don't worry, I won't be careless."

Lintian Pass, the towering Lintian Pass, the king of Dongzhou and his henchmen have gathered here.

After 3 days of escape, Wei Changyong finally arrived at Lintian Pass.

Lintianguan, the City Lord's Mansion, and the King of Dongzhou County looked at Wei Changyong, who was embarrassed: "How did you make it like this?" What about Zhang Biao and Li Wuyan? ”

Wei Changyong: "Lord Wang, Zhang Cheng and Li Wuyan died in the battle of Donglai City. I got away with it. ”

The king of Dongzhou County frowned: "What's the matter, isn't Xu Ru all arranged?"

Wei Changyong: "Lord Wang, that Wei Changfeng, he doesn't play cards according to common sense at all." We got in touch with him and suffered a big loss. Then Wei Changyong recounted the battle of Donglai City in detail.

After hearing this, the king of Dongzhou County was furious: "Wei Changyong, do you think this king is a fool?" How dare you make up such a lie to deceive this king. ”
