Chapter 283: Buckle the City

Qin Ci is the hunting envoy of the Heavenly Patrol, the Wai Lang of the Arsenal of the Ministry of War, and the commander of the Apocalypse Guard, Xu Rui is here, so don't open the city gate quickly! ”

Cao Siyuan sat on a tall horse and shouted towards Bandung City, the capital of Huanzhou Province.

In the middle of the Chinese army, Han Qi looked coldly at Bandung City, where the gate was closed, as if facing the enemy, and said to Xu Rui beside him with a smile: "Lord Xu, it seems that the situation is not good, don't they treat us as people from the Southern Dynasty?" ”

Xu Rui glanced at him and didn't speak.

A few days ago, Xu Rui used the Trojan horse to attack the Tianhe Pass, and the Apocalypse Guard took advantage of the chaos to loot the materials, grain and grass available in the Tianhe Pass.

Tianhe Pass originally had a garrison of 20,000 troops, the border army lacked discipline, the combat effectiveness was weak, as soon as the artillery rang out, the Tianqiwei put a few more fires, Tianhe Pass was in chaos, and the officers and soldiers scattered and fled.

It's a pity that there are only a few hundred people left in the Tianqiwei, and they don't have the strength to wipe out the routs and block the news, so they can only blow up Tianhe Pass completely, and then hide in the long canyon.

Xu Rui expected that if the main force of the Southern Dynasty was still in Xichuan, he would at least send a partial division to pursue and monitor the Tianqiwei, if he was lucky, maybe Zhong Qingyuan would be angry and the whole army would pursue him, and he would have the opportunity to take care of his calculations and wait for the enemy army to go deep and blow up the canyon behind Tianhe Pass, and completely bury the Southern Dynasty army.

However, after waiting for three days, not only was the army of the Southern Dynasty nowhere to be seen, but he didn't even encounter a single scout, Xu Rui knew that the main force of the Southern Dynasty had been bitten by a snake and had been afraid of the well rope for ten years, so he must have gone north quickly through several other roads.

Xichuan Province is surrounded by mountains on three sides and faces the sea on the other, and it is precisely because of its accessibility in all directions and easy to defend and difficult to attack that it was selected as the national capital by the Han Dynasty.

Although it was said that because of the destruction of the Han Dynasty for countless years and many repairs, there was more than one road in and out of Xichuan from the north to Tianhe Pass, but those roads either went around in a big circle or were extremely difficult to walk, which would definitely greatly delay the march of the Southern Korean army.

After discovering this, Xu Rui immediately made a decision, and quickly went north with the Tianqiwei that had not yet been repaired, and entered Huanzhou, which was adjacent to Xichuan, wanting to find a big city to repair as soon as possible, and then continue to resist the attack of the Southern Dynasty after recovering its combat effectiveness.

Huanzhou is located in the northwest of Xichuan, out of the narrow valley behind the Tianhe Pass can be reached, and the Southern Dynasty army did not go through the Tianhe Pass, which is equivalent to bypassing the Huanzhou from the east and going directly north.

Therefore, Xu Rui's surprise attack on Tianhe Pass was tantamount to protecting Huanzhou in disguise, and at the same time, he also won a safe place for Tianqiwei to repair the buffer.

However, no one thought that when they came to the first city of Huanzhou, they would eat a closed door.

Under the city gate, Cao Siyuan still shouted at the top of his voice, but the officers and non-commissioned officers seemed to be deaf, looking at Cao Siyuan coldly, as if they were watching a clown performance.

Cao Siyuan's throat was about to smoke, so he finally waited for an adult in a red official uniform, and hurriedly shouted Fang Cai's words again.

But before he could speak, the lord cried out loudly over the city.

"This official is Zhou Chun, the prefect of Bandung, who are you, and you dare to make noise here?"

Cao Siyuan said: "The last general is Cao Siyuan, the leader of the Tianqiwei guard, the envoy of the Heavenly Patrol Hunting, the member of the Arsenal of the Ministry of War, and the commander of the Tianqiwei Xu Rui is here, so don't open the city gate quickly!" ”

"Shut up!"

Governor Zhou snorted and said: "The prefect has already received a report from the imperial palace that Lord Xu has been killed in Xichuan, how dare you use the name of Lord Xu to try to deceive the city gate, what is your intention?!" ”

"Keep your dog's eyes open and be quiet, Lord Xu is in the Chinese army, who dares to say that he has died in battle?!"

Cao Siyuan was furious in his heart, and said hatefully.

That Zhou Governor raised his eyelids and glanced at the Heavenly Apocalypse Guard Array, his two eyes turned slightly in his sockets, and sneered: "Bold fanatics, the imperial court newspaper said that Xichuan has fallen, and Xu Rui only has more than a thousand people, how can he escape from Ascension?"

Could it be that he had already surrendered to the Southern Dynasty and became someone's dog, so he came here to trick the official into opening the city gate, so that the Southern Dynasty army ambushed nearby could take the opportunity to attack the city? ”

"Fuck your stinking fart!"

Cao Siyuan was furious and said: "Lao Tzu fought bloodily on the front line, and more than 1,000 soldiers simply blocked the Northern Dynasty army in Xichuan for more than 20 days.

If you let Lao Tzu enter the city, you will have to take off your dog's head to sacrifice the spirit of the fallen soldiers! ”

Cao Siyuan scolded fiercely, but Zhou Zhifu sneered, and said leisurely: "No matter how clever you are, don't want to deceive the eyes of the official, who can prove that you said that the Apocalypse Guard fought bloodily?"

Hmph, I see that you are clearly poked by the official, so you are so embarrassed and angry, for the sake of you and I who have worked together in the northern country, even if you have surrendered, it is not difficult for the official to tell your master that you want to deceive the gate of Bandung City, don't even think about it! ”

"You!"

Cao Siyuan's eyes were red, and he was about to tear open his throat and scold back, but a sharp arrow suddenly fell from the sky, impartially shooting right in front of his war horse, and the war horse stood up in shock, but fortunately he was superb in equestrian skills, so he was not thrown down.

"This official's words are all here, if you don't know what to do, don't blame this official for ignoring that little bit of incense!"

Governor Zhou coldly shouted the last sentence, then turned around and went down the city, and a row of archers immediately pulled the bowstring and aimed it at Cao Siyuan.

"Okay, you wait!"

Cao Siyuan almost blew up his lungs, knowing that there was no result if he continued to talk about it, he pulled the reins of his horse and ran towards the Apocalypse Guard.

"Only people who pretend to be asleep will never wake up, and it seems that there is no need to talk more to the prefect of that week."

Han Qi sighed with emotion, turned his head, and looked at Xu Rui with interest.

Xu Rui waved expressionlessly, and said the word "go" lightly, and the formation immediately whistled, hundreds of cavalry and nearly a hundred carts silently turned around and headed into the distance.

At the head of the city, seeing that the Apocalypse Guard had finally left, the Zhou Governor's Mansion, who was squatting under the battlements, stood up cautiously and let out a long breath.

"My lord, it doesn't look like the Apocalypse Guard has already surrendered."

The master on the side said tentatively.

Governor Zhou snorted coldly: "Then you can't open the door, although Xu Rui's official position is not high, but in the end he has the name of a Qincha, when he enters the city, won't the whole city have to listen to him?"

What's more, since he was able to deal with the Southern Dynasty army for so long with only more than a thousand people, and finally retreated, he must be a main battle faction, if he entered the city, wouldn't he want to pull the people of the whole city to fight to the death with the Southern Dynasty army?

At that time, maybe the group of jackals from the southern dynasty will be brought here, and the good days of you and me will come to an end! ”

"But if he waits for the war to end, and he returns to the capital to join you, we won't be able to argue."

The master replied weakly.

"It's okay!"

Zhou Zhifu smiled faintly and said: "The Southern Dynasty is menacing, whether he can survive until then is still a question, even if he really lives to the end, I will first go to the book to refer to him and flee first in fear of war, anyway, the army of the Southern Dynasty has left Xichuan, but he is still alive, to say that the sky, he can't get rid of a cowardly hat!" ”

Apocalypse Guardian in the army.

"Where are we going now?"

Han Qi asked Xu Rui suspiciously.

Xu Rui shook his head: "Don't go anywhere, even if you can't enter the city, you have to solve the supply first, now the army's food and grass have bottomed out, and it's too late to go to other places." ”

Han Qi nodded, and suddenly smiled: "Adults always talk halfway, it seems that they don't trust the lower officials very much." ”

Xu Rui glanced at him in surprise, and said lightly: "When I was in Xichuan, we shared weal and sorrow, even if we were grasshoppers on a rope, we naturally had trust, and when you arrived here, you were already a bird flying in the sky, and you may not be of the same heart as me, if you trust you too much, wouldn't it seem that I am too stupid?"

But don't worry, no matter what you have in mind or what calculations you have, as long as you endure and don't do it, I will open one eye and close one eye, and I will not be embarrassed by you. ”

"So that's the case, no wonder you tied me to my side after leaving Xichuan, and I didn't leave an inch, this is a good way."

Han Qi said with a smile.

Xu Rui also laughed: "Since you also think it is good, just be honest, when the battle is over, you return to the King of Liao, and I will continue to make a fortune in Xichuan, and our well water will not interfere with river water." ”

Han Qi smiled dumbly: "It seems that the adults have already drawn a line for the lower officials, but are you so sure that I must be from over there?" ”

Xu Rui shook his head: "It doesn't matter who you are, the important thing is not to stretch out your hand, you will be caught if you stretch out your hand!" ”

After speaking, Xu Rui hit the horse forward and ignored Han Qi.

Han Qi looked at Xu Rui's back with a smile and muttered, "Do you use the prince to warn me?" Interesting......"
