Chapter 0236: Yingbu Wasn't Fooled?
"Crown Prince Han, is that really what you said?"
Half an hour later, twenty miles south of Yongcheng, the Huainan rebel camp.
Roughly scanning the donation book in his hand, Yingbu raised his head without a suspicious face, and cast his deep gaze on the young man in front of him.
But when the young man heard this, his face only buzzed with a touch of annoyance!
His eyes widened without fear, and he stared at Yingbu for a long time, and then the young man snorted coldly and turned his head away proudly.
"Huainan King Shenyan!"
"Since the death of Duke Lu in Wujiang, the world has long been one, and now the saint has inherited the throne of the emperor and established the Han Sheji, thinking that he is the king of the world!"
"Your Majesty is already the Son of Heaven, Your Highness, you should be the prince, and you will be the queen of Sheji and Zongmiao!"
With these words in an extremely serious tone, the young man quietly narrowed the corners of his eyes, and looked at Yingbu's gaze, which was even more faintly threatening.
"On the system, the crown prince is more than the princes; And this, also because the prince is weak, and most of the princes are clan elders, and the prince is more young than the clan princes. ”
"The king of Huainan is not a clan relative, and the throne is already under the crown prince, and the prince of the present day has been entrusted by His Majesty with the responsibility of supervising the country, and has the right to 'act cheaply' on His Majesty's fake Son of Heaven's Day."
"The prince of the prison country on the holiday, the king of Huainan, it is better to be respectful······"
"Bastard !!"
As soon as the young man's voice fell, before Yingbu could speak, there was a roar one after another in the huge military tent!
When Yingbu turned his head sideways with a strange smile, he saw that the Huainan generals in the tent all raised their eyebrows and looked at the young man with tears in their eyes, and they couldn't wait to tear the young man apart on the spot!
Only a moment later, I saw Yingbu chuckling and gently raising his hand, and the hot atmosphere in the tent quietly dissipated in an instant.
When the generals in the tent gritted their teeth and retreated to their sides with resentment, Yingbu leaned forward with a strange smile, propped his elbows on his thighs, and pointed lightly at the fearless young man inside the tent.
"Who are you?"
Hearing Yingbu's words, the young man still looked arrogant with a straight back and no squint, and he glanced at the Huainan general in the tent with his eyes, and then snorted coldly.
"The eldest husband will not change his name, and he will not change his surname!"
"——Certain, is the captain of the first department of the Southern Army, and is also the current prince's personal guard supervising the army, and the Chu people Quan Xu is also!"
As soon as he heard that the young man reported to his home, the Huainan general, who had just quieted down in the tent, suddenly became a little commotion.
It's just that, compared to the unanimous angry eyes just now, everyone in the tent at this moment has different faces.
"Southern Army?!"
"The prince is here, unexpectedly!"
"There is an entourage of the Southern Army, and there are ?!! left and right"
Thinking like this, I saw several slightly older Huainan generals frowning slightly, looking at each other with solemn expressions, and then turning their gazes towards Quan Xu, who was standing alone in the center of the tent.
"This son claims to be a Chu man, and he is a captain of the first section of the Southern Army, and he seems to be only more than 20 years old······"
"Hmm!"
"When it is the time, after the elite soldiers of the Southern Army who died in battle!"
Different from the caution of these old men, hearing Quan Xu's coming, the rest of the young generals who were in the prime of life, and even young generals who were under thirty years old, invariably had a touch of excitement on their faces.
"King!"
I saw a middle-aged general standing up with excitement, just bowing over to Yingbu, and before he could say anything, he was blocked by Yingbu's gently raised hand.
Just as the middle-aged general lowered his head with a gloomy face, considering whether to continue talking, Yingbu's cold tone sounded in the tent again.
"Captain of the Southern Army, after the Father of Abundance, ······"
"Huh·······"
Yin smiled compassionately, and saw Yingbu hey standing up with a smile, his right index finger subconsciously rubbing against his lower lip, Looking at Quan Xu's gaze, it was full of playfulness.
"Thou shalt not be afraid of my ······"
"Aren't you afraid that the widow will kill you?"
But when he saw that Quan Xu heard this, the firmness on his face did not diminish at all, but he raised his head and responded a little higher.
"After a certain father, the pillar of the society, has been appreciated by His Majesty today, and blessed by the heroic souls of my ancestors, why be afraid?"
"Although the two armies are fighting, they have long been cut to make them say, but when they came, they knew that the matter of using the sword to relieve their personal anger was indeed something that the king of Huainan might do!"
Said with a look of disdain, Quan Xu did not forget to stretch out his finger, and pointed to the donation book in Yingbu's hand without shying away from the courtesy.
"I came here by the order of the prince of the current prince, and handed over this letter to the hands of the king of Huainan!"
"Today, a certain mission is necessary, if you want to kill, the king of Huainan does not need to say much, but he can set up five tripods and cook a certain one!"
After that, Quan Xu was full of resoluteness and said goodbye, and added with resentment: "The eldest husband can't eat five tripods, and he should cook five tripods!! ”
"Cooked by the king of Huainan, although it may make a certain shame, and can not face the ancestors in front of the ancestors, but it has to be cooked with five tripods, and a certain will die without regrets!!!!!"
Listening to Quan Xu's impassioned words, and looking at Quan Xu's firm face that did not show the slightest fear, the faces of everyone in the hall finally slowly swelled with a strange color.
On Yingbu's side, the strategist who had officially gotten rid of his status as a 'pro-soldier' and dressed as a scribe had an anxious look.
"King!"
"This son is clearly in ······"
As soon as the strategist was halfway through his words, he saw Yingbu gently pat his thigh, stood up from his seat, looked at Quan Xu with a smile, and did not forget to raise the handkerchief in his hand.
"The crown prince of Han, who wants to talk about the same widow, will be outside Yongcheng for a while."
Whispering, Yingbu turned his head sideways with a smile, glanced around the people in the tent, and said with a smile: "However, the widow really has no leisure, so Yu Yiru Mao boy chatted ······"
"The !! of Cloth"
Before Yingbu's words fell, he saw Quan Xu's eyes widen, and he was about to step forward, but he was stopped by several Huainan generals beside him, his arms were pinned behind him, and his upper body was pressed, and he lowered himself in the direction of Yingbu.
Seeing that Yingbu smiled contemptuously again, he threw the donated book in his hand to the ground, slowly stepped forward, and patted it lightly on the face of Quan Xu, who was gritting his teeth.
"Widow, don't kill you for the time being."
"Thou shalt return to the city of Yong, and tell the little one: Today, the widow will be at peace with the little one."
"When the sun comes, the widow will go to Yongcheng in armor in person, and use the head of the old thief to give the princes and the prince the gift of the prince······"
Dropping this sentence meaningfully, Yingbu turned sideways, his face suddenly grim, and he did not shy away from Quan Xu's existence, and gave an order to everyone in the tent.
"Order the left, right, front, and middle four armies, that is, send the camp fifty miles east of the camp, and attack Cao Shen's troops!"
"The rear army stayed in the camp, and 30,000 people from the other troops left the camp, and went out of the camp to five miles outside Yongcheng, waiting for !! without attacking"
"!!!!!"
·
But a moment later, the huge Huainan camp rolled up a cloud of dust.
Seeing this change, the defenders of Yongcheng just hurried to martial law.
On the corner tower of the inner city wall, watching several teams of people and horses walk out of the rebel camp from a distance, Liu Ying's face also quietly appeared a little regretful.
"Alas~"
"Sure enough······"
As far as Liu Ying saw at this moment: the Huainan soldiers and horses in the rebel camp almost poured out!
But what made Liu Ying feel helpless was that at least three-quarters of the rebel soldiers and horses that poured out of the camp were all targeting east.
Only a quarter of the remainder, that is, no more than 20,000 or 30,000 men, left the rebel camp north and headed in the direction of Yongcheng.
From this situation alone, it is not difficult for Liu Ying to guess that her plan did not succeed.
Yingbu didn't fall for Liu Ying, and didn't waste much time, so he focused his attention on Cao Shen's army on the east side of the battlefield.
And the part of the rebel army that is heading towards Yongcheng will most likely not attack Yongcheng, but will only wait in formation not far from the city, so as not to let the defenders in the city go out of the city and rush to the aid of Cao Shen's army.
In this way, the choice left to Liu Ying seems to be the option of 'watching Cao Shen's army being attacked by the main force of Yingbu in Yongcheng, but not being able to provide the slightest help'.
But obviously, Liu Ying was very dissatisfied with this option and was extremely reluctant to choose.
"In the army of the Marquis of Pingyang, most of them are Qi soldiers."
"As early as the Warring States Period, the pawns of the Qi State were mostly known to the world for their excellent armor and blades, and their anti-combat power was not high."
"More Pingyang Hou Department, at most 40,000 horses; On the other hand, the rebels under the command of the thieves are more than 100,000!! ”
The tone was full of irritability, and Liu Ying turned around and looked at Li Shang not far behind him.
"I think that the gate of Yongcheng may have reached a place where it must be opened!"
Hearing Liu Ying's words, Li Shang only responded with a touch of anxiety on his face.
But a moment later, as Liu Ying said a few more words, the anxious look on Li Shang's face slowly turned into a hesitation.
"However, although the city gate can be opened, the defenders in the city must not be exhausted!"
"Lonely: Open the city gate widely, slowly go out of the city with a captain, and pretend to be in the city to respond to the battle."
"Upon learning of this, the thieves will turn back with their main forces and come from the east; At that time, this department was ordered to go around the city and enter Yongcheng from the west gate. ”
"And so it did not go many times, and the sun was faint; The predicament of Pingyang Hou should be solved! ”
Listening to Liu Ying's seemingly feasible plan, Li Shang's face was even more hesitant.
The meaning of Liu Ying's words, Li Shang naturally understood it.
- You, Yingbu, didn't you send the main force to attack Cao Shen?
- Then I will open the gates of the city, pretend to go out of the city, and attack the small army you left behind!
Upon discovering this situation, the main force of Yingbu would inevitably abandon Cao Shen and turn around, trying to engage the Han army in Yongcheng while protecting the remaining troops and the large battalion.
At that point, the troops that had left the city returned to the city, and everything returned to its original state.
And at this moment, Cao Shen's army is thirty miles east of the rebel camp!
When the main force of the rebels went out for twenty miles, as soon as the gate of Yongcheng was opened, the main force of the rebels turned around and came back, and this was another twenty miles.
After a forty-mile round trip, even if the sun does not set, it will not be far from dusk.
At that time, looking at the autumn sun that was about to go down the mountain, even if Yingbu still wanted to attack Cao Shen's department, he could only give up for the time being.
When the main force of Yingbu comes out of the camp again at dawn tomorrow, they will be surprised to find that after one night's effort, Cao Shen's troops have already set up a military camp thirty miles east of the rebel camp.
At that time, there was Cao Shen's army in the east, which had a firm foothold, and Liu Ying's troops in the north, who relied on Yongcheng to defend him, and Yingbu had to be careful to guard his soft flanks no matter which direction he wanted to attack.
In other words: when Cao Shen's department takes root on the edge of the battlefield, the strategic advantage that Yingbu occupies at this moment will be wiped out in an instant!
But this also means that Yingbu will inevitably do everything to prevent Cao Shen's troops from setting up a military camp······
"Pretending to be out of the city······"
With a hesitant mutter, Li Shang looked at Liu Ying with worried eyes.
From Liu Ying's resolute gaze and the heavy nodding of his head, it is not difficult for Li Shang to see that Liu Ying is probably clear about the risks that may result from 'pretending to go out of the city'.
- Filming a troop pretending to go out of the city and making a posture of attacking the rebel camp is not a difficult task for Li Shang!
And this move will inevitably make the main force of the rebels turn around and temporarily give up attacking Cao Shen's department.
But the crux of the matter is that it is easy to release the troops out of the city, but it is not so simple to get the troops back into the city with all their tails.
Optimistically, in order to return to the city of this pretending to attack, at least an elite unit must be 'cut off'.
And in such a battle to defend the city, an elite team is the main force returning to the city to 'break off', which can basically be directly understood as sending to death.
Even this 'throwing a piece of meat' is still an optimistic result!
The most pessimistic result was tantamount to the entire school captain's department that went out of the city, which was bitten by the main force of the rebels who turned back, and chased after them.
If that's the case, there will only be two choices left in front of Liu Ying.
One of them: close the city gates, completely abandon the school captain that was released from the city, and leave it to fend for itself!
But doing so would deal a huge blow to the morale of the Yongcheng defenders and to the prestige of Liu Ying himself.
- Your Highness can leave an entire school captain outside the city to fend for herself without blinking an eye today, will you also give up on us and leave us to fend for ourselves in the future?
As long as such a thought appeared in the minds of the soldiers of the Yongcheng defenders, the military spirit of the Yongcheng defenders would collapse in an instant.
In addition, the soldiers and horses stationed in Yongcheng today are basically all from good families in Guanzhong, which makes Liu Ying's move inevitably lose his life in Guanzhong.
In addition, the last option left is to open the city gates, risk being attacked by the rebels, and take this school captain back to the city······
"Your Highness······"
"Right Xiangguo doesn't need to persuade again!"
"Determined to be willing!"
"If the thief comes and stops him, and the lonely relatives go out of the city, they will never let the sharp soldiers of our Han family, and one of them will die in vain due to the incompetence of the lonely!!"
Seeing that Liu Ying was so resolute, Li Shang thought about it again and again, and finally nodded slowly.
Strictly speaking, Liu Ying's plan is indeed not very good.
But in addition, Li Shang couldn't think of a second way that could be safer than Liu Ying's plan······
"Alas······"
"That's all there is to it."
"Choose a strong lieutenant and lead it out of the city by the general of the chariot cavalry; When the enemy appears, he will return to the city immediately······"
"Hmmm······"
"It's feasible."
