Chapter 179: Consideration of Position
"Report!"
"Your Majesty! Big things are not good! About ten miles outside the East City Gate of Luozhou! There is an army moving! ”
It was late at night (4 o'clock), and there was still nearly an hour before dawn, when Yuwen Shihong was sleeping in Zhengxiang, he was suddenly woken up by a hurried message outside.
When I opened my eyes, I could see through the tent curtain that the fire was shining outside the tent.
"What? What is the change of the army? Yuwen Shihong suddenly sat up and hurriedly put on his coat.
At this time, Yang Jian almost ran over:
"Your Majesty! Big things are not good! This Dugu Yongye is simply fooling my Da Zhou for a fool! ”
"What has he been doing in the past few days...... It's all about holding back our army! ”
"Even Your Majesty has been deceived! He deliberately surrendered with false intentions! Let Your Majesty transfer most of the troops! ”
"Now the defenders of Luoyang City are coming! At least 50,000 people! More than 100,000! ”
While he was talking in a hurry, Dugu Yongye was also tied up and thrown in by the subordinates who followed.
When Yang Jian's words fell, Lonely Yongye said with a serene face:
"Before tonight, this official considered himself loyal to Daqi, and after tonight, he was willing to surrender to Dazhou."
"But the matter has come to this point, I'm afraid there is no longer this opportunity, if you want to kill or chop, listen to the respect, this official has done his best to tell Luoyang's plan in its entirety."
"Heh," Yuwen Shihong sneered:
"You also know that my sincerity has been exhausted by you, and if you say these words again, can I still believe you?"
Dugu Yongye fell silent, and he had nothing to say.
"Hehe, really."
Yuwen Shihong sneered a few times with a few self-deprecating snorts, and when he saw the generals around him looking at Dugu Yongye, his eyes were breathing fire, and Yuwen Shihong immediately opened his mouth with relief:
"Although the garrison only has 20,000 left, it has not yet reached a point where there is no solution."
"Lord Dugu, do you remember the previous appointment between you and me?"
"I agreed to import assets to Luozhou, and I am thinking about the people in the city, I guess what you are considering is also seeing is believing, you have to see with your own eyes that my Da Zhou is really thinking about the people, so you are willing to return to sincerity."
"But there is no time now, and then I will ask you to confirm with your own eyes what my Da Zhou's sincerity is, whether it is really for the people, or to deceive and steal Luozhou City."
"Previously, you and I had an appointment, I will send materials into the city to help the people, and you will help me take Luoyang in the Great Zhou."
"I wanted to fulfill the contract when you were convinced, but now it's too late."
"If You ......"
"The official is willing to fulfill the contract!"
Without waiting for Yuwen Shihong to finish speaking, Dugu Yongye said solemnly:
"It doesn't take much longer, this official can already be sure that His Majesty Zhou Guo is sincere for the people, and the earlier covenant is also to fulfill the contract after being convinced with his own eyes."
"Now you don't have to wait, this official is willing to fulfill the contract immediately!"
"Really?" Yuwen Shihong was still a little surprised, but still remained quiet:
"My Great Zhou garrison has only 20,000 firecracker troops, and the mountains and fields are not suitable for the firecracker army to fight in a military formation, and Luoyang has come to attack a lot, and you are better at commanding operations with a military formation."
"I am under your repeated consumption and trust, so naturally I can't trust you, do you want to lead your troops to win the war, or ......?"
"Led the troops to take the opportunity to merge with the Luoyang Road army, and then turned the spearhead and backstabbed my Da Zhou."
This is quite unkind, and Yuwen Shihong doesn't have to be polite to him, he thinks that he has finally rebelled against a virtuous person, and he should be treated preferentially for his own use.
As soon as this statement came out, it may be cold This sincerity to Da Zhou is finally warmed up.
"Your Majesty Zhou, even if you send an army of 100,000 troops in the direction of Luoyang, my Luozhou Road Army is not without a chance of winning," Dugu Yongye seemed to automatically ignore the fierceness in Yuwen Shihong's words, and continued as if he were talking about things:
"Qi has been corrupted for a long time, and there is a chance that the warlike generals will die unjustly, and the good general Hu Lu, who was responsible for defending Luoyang earlier, was either wrongfully killed, or his whereabouts are unknown, presumably the new Luoyang general, the ability is completely incomparable with Hu Lu's."
"My Luozhou Road Army only needs to arrange troops and arrange for 30,000 to win 100,000, no problem!"
"Okay," Yuwen Shihong said leisurely, and his voice was relaxed:
"Since Lord Dugu said it so easily, then presumably even if my 20,000 firearms army is not under your command, you still have a way to defeat the 100,000 army."
"Tonight, it's up to you to perform."
With that, Yuwen Shihong got up and wanted to lead his troops out of the camp.
Yang Jian was directly anxious!
It is Luozhou, which belongs to the Qi country! And Dugu Yongye is also loyal to the Qi country!
Now he says that he has a sincere heart for Da Zhou, and the credibility here is extremely low!
Let Dugu Yongye go to fight the Luoyang Road Army?
What is the difference between this and returning Luozhou to Qi?
If this is the case, then the belonging of Luoyang is all in the thought of Dugu Yongye!
If Dugu Yongye defects again, then the 20,000 Fire Gun Army will have to retreat in order to protect themselves!
Immediately after that, I am afraid that the state will also ......
In this way, so many of the materials that have just arrived are equivalent to giving them to the Qi country for nothing!
"Your Majesty! You can't bet! ”
"In case you lose the bet! Heavy losses! ”
Yang Jian hurriedly chased after Yuwen Shihong, who seemed to ignore him, and continued to move forward without being affected in the slightest:
"How can I say that I'm gambling, I'm just believing in Dugu Yongye."
“!!!” Yang Jian was about to smoke above his head:
"Believing in him is not a gamble! In case he turns against him repeatedly! The consequences are not just that Los Angeles can't take it! Maybe even the state ......."
"Alright," Yuwen Shihong interrupted with a smile:
"If Yang Aiqing has to think that I am gambling, then I am too lazy to say anything."
"I not only believe that Dugu Yongye is sincere, but also believe that he is capable of coping."
As soon as he spoke, Yuwen Shihong's steps had already come to the pioneer camp.
Previously, Yang Shuang only unarmed and had a few meals with the prisoners of war, and successfully surrendered thousands of Luozhou prisoners of war.
Now these prisoners of war have been temporarily incorporated by Yang Shuang as supernumerary soldiers of the pioneer battalion, and after the grain, grass and salted meat were distributed to them first, they did not hear Yang Shuang report any changes to them.
"Yang Yingjun! Your Majesty summons! ”
Yang Shuang, who was in the tent, was sleeping in a daze, and suddenly heard the summons, and rolled up with a wheel, and hurriedly put on his clothes and came outside.
Knowing the complicated situation, Yang Shuang's face turned blue.
"Yang Shuang listened to the order and led his troops to prepare to retreat to Hezhou."
"What?" Yang Shuang was shocked:
"Instead of fighting, retreat?"
"Well, not only the vanguard battalion is retreating, but the 20,000 firecracker army is also evacuating as a whole."
Hearing the sound, Yang Jian's whole heart was like ashes.
What is the situation of the battle now, it really depends on Dugu Yongye's thoughts.
……
In the city of Luozhou, the street in the middle of the night is brightly lit.
Dugu Yongye stood on the city tower, his solemn face was about to drip ink.
Zhou's 20,000 troops were retreating westward toward Hezhou, and he could see by the direction of the movement of torches that stretched for miles.
For him, confluence with Luoyang is the easiest option.
But......
Looking at the piles of materials on the official road of Fang Street......
After the confluence, these things will no longer belong to the people of Luozhou, but to Luoyang.
There will be no more of these materials in the future.
