Chapter 103: First Strike
"You...... You're not the prime minister?" The general of the Chuzhou army was dumbfounded, and after a while, he suddenly realized: "No, this is all an ambush in the capital, you actually do it to your own people?"
"You wanted my concubine before, but you didn't treat me as your own." Shen Yunfan sneered.
"You...... The prince will not let you go!" The general of the Chuzhou Army gritted his teeth and said.
"Take him down and ask why only eight hundred people have come. As for the others, kill them all." Shen Yunfan instructed.
The bandits went their separate ways to clean up the battlefield.
The corpses in the valley are like purgatory on earth. Today's ambush is actually not easy to win.
After counting the number of people, one of the generals of the bandit army came over menacingly and asked, "Do you know how many brothers we have killed and injured with your bullshit plan?"
"How much?"
The general's name was Hong Feirong, and at this time he said with red eyes: "There are more than 300 people! You had to let them be bait, and they threw their weapons and fled, leaving them to be slaughtered!"
The ambush plan this time was customized by Shen Yunfan himself. Shen Yunfan and Zheng Wanyi went to act first to relax each other's vigilance. Then send people as bait to lure the enemy deeper, and finally the net is gone.
It's just that on the way to lure, the bait also killed and injured a lot.
After all, the strength of the Chuzhou Army should not be underestimated.
Hong Feirong scolded: "If I knew this was the case, it would be better for me to lead my brothers to rush and kill, at least they don't have to die in vain!"
"Rush?" Shen Yunfan sneered and shook his head, "Three hundred dead and wounded people is already the best result, if you dare to rush and kill, you will only be wiped out."
"We are twice as numerous as them, and we occupy a good position, so why should we all be annihilated? You look down on us?"
"It's not that I look down on you, it's that you look down on the Chuzhou Army." Shen Yunfan sneered, "Do you think they're as easy to deal with as the Imperial Forest Army?"
"Fart, you just didn't treat us as human beings, and you wanted us all to die here!" Hong Feirong said angrily.
The two argued, and Zheng Wanyi suddenly came from outside and said sternly, "Don't say it, go down."
"Princess ......"
"Go down!"
Hong Feirong gritted his teeth, and then left angrily. And his last vicious eyes were all seen by Shen Yunfan.
Shen Yunfan was a little more vigilant in his heart.
Zheng Wanyi said softly: "Your plan is right, I have seen the combat strength of the Chuzhou army before, and if you rush to kill, there is indeed no chance of victory. It's good to have such a result now."
"The princess understands me." Shen Yunfan breathed a sigh of relief, in order to deal with these eight hundred Chuzhou soldiers, he came over overnight last night to arrange an ambush plan.
Unexpectedly, Hong Feirong didn't appreciate it in the end, but thought that Shen Yunfan had harmed them.
What a white-eyed wolf.
At this time, Shen Yunfan remembered Hong Feirong's vicious eyes, and reminded, "Princess, Hong Feirong is not convinced by you, it is better to get rid of this kind of person as soon as possible."
「…… I have my own plans, Lord Shen doesn't have to worry about it." Zheng Wanyi lowered her head.
"You are a woman's benevolence......" Shen Yunfan scratched his head helplessly, and without waiting for him to persuade him again, the five-way ghost who had completed the interrogation came.
"This time, a total of 1,000 Chuzhou troops came to Dongxing City, 800 people came to suppress the bandits, and the remaining 200 people escorted Liu Cheng back to Chuzhou City." The five-way ghost said in a deep voice.
"What?" Shen Yunfan's face changed, "Can you still catch up?"
"They're on fast horses, and they're at least half the way now. We don't have horses, we can't catch up." The five-way ghost said in a deep voice.
"Xu Yan, that waste, it's a bad thing again." Shen Yunfan let out a long sigh, his expression extremely solemn.
In the entire Southern Wei Dynasty, there are a total of four people who know his details, namely Liu Meiniang, Feng Chime, Su Qingyi, and Liu Cheng. The first two are cronies who are absolutely loyal to him, and the third is his former fiancée.
Of the four, only Liu Cheng is the most threatening.
But now, the most threatening one has run away!
"So what do we do now?" Zheng Wanyi also realized that the situation was not
Wonderful.
"The plan has changed, we can only strike first and immediately notify the capital to send troops!" Shen Yunfan said in a deep voice, "When Liu Cheng's old fox gets a foothold, it'll be too late!"
……
On that day, outside Dongxing City, a horse-drawn carriage galloped by, and many corpses fell on it.
Those corpses were all wearing Chuzhou standard armor, and they were the Chuzhou army that came to suppress the bandits.
After the body was discovered, the news of the total annihilation of the 800 Chuzhou troops quickly spread in the city, causing panic in the whole city.
"How many bandits are there on the mountain, and they can kill so many elite Chuzhou troops?"
"Let's run, those bandits will definitely come back to kill and vent their anger!"
In such an environment, the officials of Dongxing City were even more frightened.
"Let's send a letter for help, and ask the prince to send troops again!"
"Chuzhou City is too far away, and I don't know how long it will take to send the letter! By the time they come, we'll probably be killed by the bandits!"
"It's important to save your life, let's hurry up and ask the capital for help!"
After the officials discussed, a letter asking for help was sent to the capital.
The capital is not far from Dongxing City, and after the bandits released threatening letters, most of the residents of Dongxing City who fled came to the capital. Therefore, the news that there are bandits in Dongxing City has also spread.
The imperial court took this panicked opportunity to recruit soldiers, and had already prepared 30,000 soldiers and horses!
As soon as the letter from Dongxingcheng asking for help arrived, this new army immediately started and under the leadership of several generals of the Imperial Forest Army, it went straight to the east of Chuzhou!
That night, they announced that they had exterminated all the bandits, and at the invitation of the officials of Dongxing City, they stationed themselves on the outskirts of Dongxing City to prevent the remnants of bandits from returning.
The territory of Chuzhou has a garrison of the imperial court.
When the news reached the ears of the King of Beishan, the King of Beishan was furious and cut off the heads of several generals and spies on the spot.
"A group of waste, who can't even get rid of a bandit, actually let the capital take the opportunity to garrison troops?"
In the entire palace, no one dared to reply.
The King of Beishan smashed half of the room, and then he slowly calmed down, and said fiercely: "Since the imperial court wants Chuzhou so much, then I will strike first. Spread my military order, and the whole army will march to Dongxing City!"
"The prince can't!" In the crowd, Liu Cheng stood up to stop him.
He looked embarrassed, he had just arrived in Chuzhou City, and tonight was supposed to be a banquet for him to pick up the wind and wash the dust, but who knew that the spies came with bad news, and the entire dinner scene was smashed by the King of Beishan.
Of course, Liu Cheng was not angry, and persuaded at this time: "That place is close to the capital, it is the enemy's home field, we must not rush in."
The King of Beishan frowned, was silent for a moment, and then shouted, "Okay, now that the capital is empty, let's go straight to Huanglong and fight to the capital!"
As soon as these words came out, the faces of the generals present changed.
After all, that's a big rebellion!
"That's not allowed!" Liu Cheng shook his head.
"This can't be, that's not okay, or you will be this prince!" King Beishan's eyes widened.
