Section 108 Coercion and inducement
On the surface, the Huzhou Tooth Army and the personal guards are not something that the Mei family soldiers can resist, but the Mei family skillfully used the magic array arranged around the house to offset the offensive launched by the Huzhou Army. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
The Huzhou army repeatedly broke through, but it was repeatedly ambushed by traps and spells, and suffered heavy losses, so heartbroken that Zhang Ting and Guo Yue were angry, but they were helpless.
The two men in Taoist costumes suppressed them on the martial arts, if it weren't for the response of other sergeants around, I am afraid that both of them would be more than lucky.
However, the sacrifice of the Ya army and the sergeant of the pro-guard team did not change the situation, and Mei's security in the mansion was much stricter than Tian's.
In Zhang Ting's view, this actually shows Mei's conservatism and lack of progress from another aspect, but at this time it has brought great trouble to his offense.
However, Zhang Ting also knew that this was just Mei's trapped beast fighting, and now even if he couldn't capture Mei's mansion, as long as he could trap the other party and make him unable to escape, it would be the basic goal to achieve.
This is also what was taken into account when designing the offensive plan in the first place, as long as there is a breakthrough at one end, then the whole situation can be reversed.
Also at the West Gate, a fierce battle was raging.
The First Army led by Yang Kan broke through the Shouchun Ximen camp in one fell swoop by means of a surprise attack.
After paying a heavy price, the Shouzhou Third Army barely stood on its feet and did not collapse immediately, relying on the middle camp to start a fierce battle with the Huzhou army that had occupied the front camp.
Jiang Feng and Tian Chunrong walked almost as fast as a flight to the Beicheng Water Gate, and ran wildly along Shunhe Street.
In the eastern section of Shunhe Street, Deng Guinian and others have been escorted by the sergeant to make final preparations for launching the fire spell, once the water army enters the section, then the wooden houses along the line will be ignited by the fire spell, so as to block the road for the Shouzhou water army to go south.
In the western section, the dense sound of horses' hooves has been unfolded along the line of Shunhe Street, Qin Zaidao has taken on his armor and helmets, leading the cavalry to stand by, just waiting for the Shouzhou Navy in the water gate of Beicheng to launch an attack once they leave the camp.
When Tian Chunrong saw this scene, he couldn't help but sigh gloomily, his heart was like ashes, there was still some reluctance before and a trace of luck had already been abandoned, once the Shouzhou Navy abandoned the ship to go ashore to reinforce the West Gate and the South Gate, then the entire western section would be completely burned, these magicians were obviously waiting for the Shouzhou Navy to enter this area before setting fire, and it may even be waiting for your front to enter before starting the fire prevention and cutting it off.
When he saw the Huzhou cavalry on standby, Tian Chunrong was finally convinced, and the Huzhou side had always made preparations to this extent, and it was obviously not a day or two of effort.
The entire Shouchun City is well known to the Huzhou side inside and out, which means that the Huzhou side has long been fighting Shouzhou's idea, which is not at all a temporary conclusion that the Zheng family can make a temporary conclusion by hooking up on a whim.
The group came to the gate of the water camp in the water gate of Beicheng, and saw that the water camp was also brightly lit, the remaining fires inside and outside the fence had not been extinguished, and some soldiers were fighting to extinguish the fire, and the camp was full of shadows, obviously the water army had been urgently mobilized.
Before Tian Chunrong went to call the door, the gate of the Shuiying camp had been opened, and the first few horsemen had already rushed out, followed by the Shouzhou Navy Army that lined up, although it was a little flustered, but it could still maintain the formation.
With a long sigh, Tian Chunrong took a step forward, "Chuntong, stop!"
"Ah, big brother?!Are you really here?, what's going on?" The first military general was surprised, and looked at the patriarch suspiciously, "Big brother, who are they?"
"Chuntong, order the troops to return to the camp first. Tian Chunrong was also a little gloomy, shook his head, and raised his voice: "Order them to go back to the camp first!"
The general was a little confused, "Big brother, what happened? We were attacked by enemy rockets just now, and we haven't had time to extinguish it yet, but the killing sound at the south gate and the west gate is shaking the sky, and we have to go to reinforcements!"
"This, you order the army to return to the camp first, and then I'll explain to you!" Tian Chunrong also knew that it was not appropriate to explain to his fourth brother at this time, but he couldn't help but answer.
"No, big brother, who are these people behind you? They have kidnapped you? Come here, the archers are ready!" The military general also saw some clues, and the abnormal behavior of the eldest brother was obviously related to the group of people hidden in the shadows, and shouted angrily.
"Chuntong! No, you don't understand!" Tian Chunrong knew that his words could not relieve the other party's suspicions, and glanced at Jiang Feng behind him.
Jiang Feng didn't expect this scene, so he groaned a little and stood up: "You are Tian Chuntong, the commander of the Third Army of Shouzhou?"
"So-and-so, who are you?" Tian Chuntong waved his hand to stop the crossbowmen who were waiting to shoot behind his back, and his eyes looked directly at this man with a lofty spirit.
Although there was nothing abnormal in the clothing, the other party walked out and stood at such a station, and the abyss and mountains immediately made people feel the momentum rushing to their faces.
"A certain is the new defense envoy of Guanghun Shou and the assassin of Huzhou Jiang Feng of the imperial court, and he came today to take over the defense of Shouzhou, so that the two Umeda families immediately laid down their weapons and waited for orders!"
Jiang Feng's voice was clear, neither high nor low, but it could make everyone present hear it clearly.
"Guanghun Shou Defense Guard?!Huzhou Assassin History?" The military general subconsciously reined in the horse, clamped the horse's belly, and asked in disbelief: "Huzhou Army?, are you Jiang Feng?!"
"Bold!"
"I'm Jiang Feng!" Hearing the other party call Jiang Feng for his life, the guards behind him were all furious, Jiang Feng waved his hand to stop the outbreak of the guards, and said calmly: "I came here with Lord Tian today, I just don't want to happen something that everyone doesn't want to see, I hope that Commander Tian will conform to the overall situation and obey my orders!"
The military general didn't know what to do for a while, he had never heard of any Guanghushou defense and capture, but this person in front of him was definitely the new assassin Shi Jiang Feng in Huzhou, this momentum is not something anyone can pretend, but such an order, can he obey it?
Tian Chunrong saw that the fourth brother's momentum had been suppressed by Jiang Feng, and shook his head: "Chuntong, obey Lord Jiang's orders, and let the soldiers respond to the call." ”
"Big brother, did they kidnap our Tian family?" the military general hesitated for a moment, and suddenly asked a little fiercely.
"Enough, Chuntong, I am still the patriarch of the Tian clan, I will let you lead the troops back to the camp immediately, Lord Jiang, can you go back to the camp with the fourth brother?" Tian Chunrong suddenly roared, and then turned around and asked.
"Of course you can, I hope that Lord Tian can have a good talk with Commander Tian, and I believe we can reach a consensus. Jiang Feng glanced at Tian Chunrong deeply and nodded in agreement.
He believed that if he could sit in the position of the patriarch of the Tian clan, Tian Chunrong's wisdom was still enough, and if the other party really wanted to go his own way without knowing the current affairs, he would not mind destroying the Tian clan.
......
After listening to Tian Chunrong's introduction, Tian Chuntong looked up to the sky and sighed.
It has come to this point, and it is irreversible.
The Huzhou army got Zheng's internal response, entered the city with lightning speed, and immediately launched an attack on the various armies, and it was so carefully arranged that it blocked the reinforcements of the naval army and surrounded the two families of Umeda, which was clearly to make you difficult to care about and decide.
Tian Chuntong can sit on the command of the navy, of course, he is not a person who can't see the situation clearly, now that he has decided to surrender, what he has to consider is how to fight for the greatest interests of the Tian family.
Zheng's move today, obviously will strive for the greatest interests for it, the three surnamed Shouzhou, Zheng has taken the lead, if the Tian family does not keep up, if the Mei family suddenly surrenders, I am afraid that Shouzhou will not have a foothold for the Tian family.
"Big brother, will the Mei clan descend?" Tian Chuntong paced back and forth in the tent, "Will Jiang Feng keep his promise?"
"If the Mei clan doesn't fall, I think Jiang Feng may keep his promise, but if the Mei clan falls, it's hard to say. Tian Chunrong thought for a while and said slowly.
Tian Chuntong was stunned for a moment, and immediately understood.
If the Mei clan is not destroyed by surrender, then Jiang Feng, as an outsider, will definitely not tolerate the Zheng family's dominance in Shouzhou, and will definitely support the Tian clan to compete with the Zheng clan, so as to ensure that its dominance in Shouzhou will not be affected.
And if the Mei clan surrenders and wants the influence of the Mei clan, it is difficult to say whether Jiang Feng will change his mind and use the Mei clan to contain the Zheng clan.
Especially from Jiang Feng's previous actions, it can be seen that his emphasis on the water army means that Jiang Feng may deliberately use the water army to control the Huaishui line, and the Mei family's water transportation power along the Huaishui line is stronger than the Tian family, which is exactly what Jiang Feng values the most.
"So what are we going to do?"
"We have no choice now, we can only hope that Jiang Feng will keep his promise, but even if the Mei family is also reduced, it depends on the intention of this Jiang Feng in the future, if he only stops in Shouzhou, then needless to say, if he has greater ambitions, then it may be our opportunity. ”
Tian Chunrong found that his thinking at this time was extremely clear and calm, and many problems that he had not thought clearly before were suddenly solved.
Jiang Feng's painstaking siege of the two mansions of Umeda is obviously an intention to force the surrender of the Umeda family, which of course has the intention of surrendering the army without a fight, but Tian Chunrong feels that Jiang Feng's greater intention is to take down the Shouzhou naval army.
This can be seen from his attitude towards the Shouzhou infantry army and the navy, but in fact, at this time, it should be the infantry army and not the navy that decide the victory, but he has to personally work with himself to subdue the navy.
"Greater ambition?" Tian Chuntong looked at his brother's face and slowly recalled: "Big brother, are you saying that he wants to control and use the Shouzhou Navy to make a difference? Is he too hungry, so he eats Shouzhou, and is trying to go elsewhere? Haozhou, or Yingzhou?"
"It's just my guess, he values the water army more than he imagined. Thinking of what Tian Chunlai saw and heard during his trip to Jiangdu, Tian Chunrong shook his head, "Maybe it doesn't stop at Haozhou and Yingzhou, maybe there's more." (To be continued.) )
