Chapter 145 Outwitting the Twin Cities
Yun Yuhong shook the falling snowflakes on her body, and said to General Wu: "Gather the Ghost King Army, find some people to change into the clothes of these Jade Snow Army, and we will take Laocheng in one go tonight." ”
The ghost king is the soul of this army, as long as the ghost king comes, everyone has a bottom in their hearts, plus the excitement of just finishing a victory, even if they have been running around for a day, they are physically very tired, but they are still full of energy. This army is well-trained, and under the order of the ghost king, it has been prepared in less than half an hour. General Wu can see it, this is what the real ghost king army looks like, and only the ghost king can really make this army show its fierceness and courage.
The stingy ghost pulled General Wu to lead the team to Laocheng, and before dawn, this army came to Laocheng. This hour is the most sleepy time of the day, the soldiers guarding the city saw an army wearing jade snow military uniforms coming when they were half asleep, and the people who watched the city gate did not pay much attention, and they all knew that 30,000 horses were going to sneak attack from here. So no one stopped them, and they were let go directly to the city gate. A yawning soldier staggered to open the city gate, but was slapped aside by the hurried general who defended the city.
The general said angrily: "Are you all sleepy, and you dare to open the city gate without asking clearly, what if it is Mo Yunbing who is put in." Don't forget that the ghost king is cunning, think about how Qin Cheng was lost, right? ”
The soldier came to his senses and hurriedly stood aside.
The general walked up to the tower and looked down. Outside, the black pressed people on one side, all of them were wearing Yuxue military uniforms, and their clothes were stained with blood, but they looked like they had just fought a battle. So his heart relaxed, and he asked loudly: "Who is leading the team, come forward to answer." ”
The stingy ghost couldn't wait for the door to open, and he felt a little uneasy, so he could only step forward when he heard the question: "The general is seriously injured and can't answer, which battalion are you, the brothers are tired, let us go in and rest." ”
The general said curiously: "Which of your lords will be, report your name." "The main general is injured and can't speak, seeing that there are a lot of people in this team, there should not be many casualties, how can the main general be injured, it's a bit wrong.
The stingy ghost complained bitterly in his heart, he didn't even talk to General Yuxue, how could he know what his surname was, but if the gate of this city was not opened, he could only attack hard, but the loss of hard attack was definitely not small.
General Wu interjected: "We have won the battle and come back, why do you judge us as enemies, Lao Tzu will not say what can you do, and still let us in?" ”
The general's heart shouted that it was not good, how could his subordinates not know him, these people were not the Yuxue Army, then it could only be the Ghost King Army. It seems that the people who went out are already more auspicious, and now that the Ghost King's army is approaching the city, the situation is very unfavorable for him. Quietly gestured to a soldier on the side, signaling him to hurry up and call someone, he was stalling here.
It's just that the little soldier didn't understand what he meant, but said loudly: "Yes." The general gave the order to open the city gates. ”
The general was in a hurry, and rushed forward to hit the creep and shouted, "Stop..."
The soldier held the general's body and said, "The general slips carefully." ”
The people on the side breathed a sigh of relief and got up to open the city gate.
The heavy city gate was opened by more than a dozen soldiers, and the stingy ghost rushed in with his men and horses, and slashed to death the Yuxue soldiers at the city gate with a few knives, and the other ghost king soldiers immediately swarmed in.
Yuxue Jun only then reflected that something was wrong, but it was too late, some were killed by the soldiers of the Ghost King Army as soon as they screamed, and for a while, the two armies fought again, but many people in the Yuxue Army got up in a hurry to fight in their sleep, and their combat power can be imagined, and the result of the battle naturally does not need to be said.
The stingy ghost went up to the city tower, and when he saw that the little soldier who was supporting the general was about to kill him, the little soldier raised his head and shouted at the stingy ghost: "Stupid, it's me!" ”
The stingy ghost was stunned for a moment, and after a closer look, he was shocked: "Why are you, Brother Wu." "That's right, this little soldier is Wu Xun, but isn't Wu Xun guarding the capital, when did he come here?
Wu Xun smiled: "This is the master's arrangement, let the master talk to you, this general will give it to you, I will take someone to the barracks to clean up the rest of the people, and then talk about it after the business is done." ”
The sun finally rose in the east, and the sun was dazzlingly bright on the snow on the houses and roadsides in the city. And the people of Laocheng suddenly found one thing when they got up in the morning, that is, there were many black-clothed ghost king troops here, and the city changed hands overnight. Fortunately, the Ghost King Army did not disturb the people, as long as they didn't cause trouble, then Qiu didn't commit any crimes, so there was not much panic.
Hundreds of miles away outside Huacheng City, Yuxuejun came to call for battle again, but this time General Gao did not fight, but instead had a posture that you would attack if you have the ability, which made Yuxuejun suspect that there was a trap and did not dare to step forward. It's just that in the evening, General Gao took the Moyun Army to call the Huacheng defenders with a meal, and the Huacheng defenders were so angry that they scolded, but they didn't want to show weakness to the Moyun Army, so they could only hurriedly eat two mouthfuls of food to fight, but the Moyun Army was very interesting, there was no sincerity at all, only a few thousand people came out, and they ran away when they saw the Yuxue Army come out, and then they stopped fighting when it was dark, but withdrew their troops.
The same was true the next day, in the morning the defenders of Huacheng called the formation of the Moyun army and did not come out, and at dinner in the evening, the Moyun army called the formation instead. This time, the defenders of Huacheng were a little angry, chasing the Moyun army, and tens of thousands of soldiers and horses ran out of almost ten miles. The generals at the head felt that something was wrong, so they hurriedly closed the formation, and returned with the soldiers, their main task now is to defend the city, waiting for reinforcements, winning the battle is secondary, and the ghost king is cunning, even General Jiang didn't get a favor, he can't be careless.
It's a pity that this general figured out later, if he wasn't greedy for this little bit of military merit, he just thought about defending the city well, never going to war and waiting for reinforcements, then he might really have nothing to do, and the Moyun army might not be able to attack the city within ten days. It's just that as long as he comes out, it's not so simple to go back.
There was a loud bang in the distance, and there was a big earthquake, and before Yu Xuejun could figure out what was going on here, he suddenly heard a huge sound of water. The general remembered something and shouted: "It's not good, run!" ”
It is a pity that human beings are insignificant in the face of the forces of nature, and the monstrous flood rushed towards these soldiers, and soon tens of thousands of people were submerged by the flood, and people were up and down in the water, and were swept by the waves towards Hwaseong. The city gate was vulnerable in the flood, and after a few waves, it stepped over, and the flood rushed into Hwaseong.
Fortunately, the terrain of Huacheng is relatively high, and this flood was intercepted by the big river that Yun Yuhong saw in the mountains outside the city, and the follow-up was weak, and it was far away from the city. It's just that although this is not a long time, it is a great opportunity for Mo Yunjun who is waiting outside.
When the Yuxue army in the city was frightened by the flood and fled in all directions, the cavalry of the Moyun army rushed in, and when the flood gradually receded, the Moyun army had already occupied the city tower, and when the Yuxue army was ready to counterattack, it was already in the encirclement of the Moyun army. There was not much loss on both sides in this battle, the Yuxue army was captured and surrendered 50,000, and the Moyun army lost less than 1,000.
The clever ghost came to the city tower with the people and horses, and General Gao shouted: "Wonderful, wonderful, why can't I think of such a plan, the ghost king is worthy of being the ghost king, that is a ghost talent that occurs once in a thousand years." ”
The clever ghost smiled proudly: "Of course, otherwise how can I be my master." ”
Wang Lekai also smiled: "The ghost king's clever plan, so that we have the least casualties, and we can take Huacheng as quickly as possible." ”
The clever ghost looked at the retreating water stream and said: "Don't be too happy, the people of this city still want you to pacify, you send some people to help the people who have been implicated, the master said that we are fighting, and the people are innocent, but there is a glimmer of hope that she will not want to use this trick." So, you have to put some effort into doing this. I'm going to tell my master that you should hurry up, maybe you're going to leave soon. ”
After the clever ghost finished speaking, he turned over and jumped off the city tower and left, but Wang Lekai and General Gao frowned and appeased the people? They will fight the war, but they have never done this work, but if they don't handle it well, it will be rumored that the Moyun Army is brutal and implicates innocent people, and the reputation of the ghost king will not be affected, but what should be done? Looking at the street below that was still dripping with water, and seeing that many panicked people had run out of the house with their packages, the two looked at each other, and the joy of winning Hwaseong began to dissipate, and they now missed the little wordy Mr. Ning very much.
The five princes rushed to Wangcheng with an army of 200,000 in a hurry, and then stopped and did not rush to leave, but pulled Cao Hou Ye to study the map, the five princes were very complacent, this time the troops can be said to be nine out of ten, the little Moyun soldiers and horses are limited, and the ghost king has less than 100,000 horses and horses to run to Yuxue, which is to send him war exploits in vain. Is the Ghost King scary? He never thought that it was a woman, or a young woman, only sixteen years old, relying on herself to be a princess, and others let and fear, so she had a little reputation. Even if the martial arts are higher, they can't be compared with thousands of troops.
What are the five princes thinking about now? Military power, yes, Yuxue does not have any prince with military power, these generals are very strict with his father, and no one dares to get too close to the princes. Therefore, it is rare for him to take charge of the military power once, so he naturally wants to take the opportunity to make some benefits, at least a few of his own talents must be inserted. Therefore, he took the opportunity to propose a very interesting battle plan to Cao Houye.
