Chapter 358: Surprise
Yacheng.
Like Dingxian, it is a city located deep in the mountains. In the hands of Liaodong Jiangmen, its city can only be regarded as unsatisfactory.
After the Mengyuan people became the masters, they immediately repaired the city, and the current city is strong and tall. It is not easy to break through this county head-on.
Originally, the city was guarded by three Han commanders, but now only a Han commander named Li Chun remains.
City.
Li Chun's house, inside the hall. Li Chun stood up, his face changed greatly, and said, "What did you say?" Wu Nian actually defeated Wanhu Jinhuan Mountain in the Valley of the Fighting Tiger. Straight to the city? ”
Li Chun, who is thirty-two years old at Chinese New Year's Eve, is not from a general's background, but a folk master. In the rivers and lakes, it is quite prestigious. He also thought he was bold, but after hearing the news, he still gasped and was deeply shocked.
This is the general of Mengyuan Wanhu, a peerless general.
Theoretically speaking, a commander of 10,000 soldiers and horses in Mengyuan Wanhu can fight 100,000 soldiers of Liaodong generals.
Only in the field, of course.
was defeated by Wu Nian?
Wu Nian, the general of the Auxiliary Han Dynasty in Beishan Fort, was really a formidable opponent. And now this terrible opponent is actually going to attack Yacheng?
Wu Nian had no food, and his eyes glowed green.
This is a hungry wolf, and its combat power has skyrocketed.
With only one commander of a thousand troops, can you hold the city?
When Li Chun thought of this, he couldn't help but be afraid.
It's really a strong enemy.
Fear for your life.
In front of Li Chun, there was a Mengyuan soldier who was bent over. It is Jin Ruiyun's personal soldier. He first glanced at Li Chun contemptuously, and thought to himself, the commander of the Han people really has no courage.
Let them defend the city, and it will be so-so.
Saying contempt, it's something that should be conveyed. Meng Yuan's soldiers still had to convey it, he nodded and said, "Yes." But don't worry. Our family of 10,000 has already gathered seven or eight hundred cavalry to support. Most of them are our Mengyuan soldiers. Unless Wu Nian had 10,000 soldiers, it would never be possible to capture Licheng. ”
When it came to the Mengyuan soldiers, he held his head high and was full of pride.
Although he has been defeated by Wu Nian many times, this time even Jin Huan Mountain was defeated. But the pride of the Mengyuan people fighting the nation will not collapse easily.
"That's great. So. The city is as strong as a rock. Li Chun was overjoyed and nodded heavily.
This defending the city is still different from the field battle.
He had more than 1,000 soldiers and horses, plus seven or eight hundred cavalry, and there were nearly 2,000 men. Among them, there are still hundreds of Mengyuan soldiers, can they still hold a city?
I don't believe it when he is killed.
"Someone. Immediately give the order. Carry the materials to the city to defend the city. In addition, I will inform the prefectural ordinance and prepare to gather the strong. ”
"Cheer me up. What we have to face is Wu Nian of Beishan Fort. ”
"Liaodong Tigers."
Li Chun took a deep breath and then ordered loudly.
"Yes." Li Chun's personal soldiers, who were guarding the door, answered loudly and immediately went down to give the order. Immediately, the entire city of Yacheng was alarmed.
The soldiers defending the city began to carry the materials for defending the city, and four squads quickly took over the city gate, and closed the gate violently, regardless of the consternation of the people.
The people inside and outside the city were not allowed to enter or go out.
Not long after, Li Chun put on his armor and left the mansion. Turned over his horse, led dozens of soldiers, and galloped towards the eastern city wall.
After turning over and dismounting, he held the hilt of the sword at his waist and walked up the city wall. He shouted to the soldiers defending the city, "Brothers. Wu Nian is known as the Liaodong Tiger, and it is true. But I, Li Chun, is not worthy of him. If he dares to come to my city, I will let him break his teeth. ”
"Also. There are also seven or eight hundred Mengyuan soldiers, who will immediately rush over to support us. Together, we will defend the city. When General Pu returns, everyone will be rewarded. ”
"Brothers, the time to get promoted and make a fortune is just around the corner. Take the courage, pull out the steel knife, and go for it yourself. ”
The Han soldiers in the city have been training for nearly a year. There was a bit of momentum, and after hearing Li Chun's words, he suddenly perked up, and said loudly.
"Yes."
"Good. Okay, very. Li Chun laughed, and then pressed the hilt of the knife with his hand to inspect the city wall. After finishing the matter, he turned around and explained to the soldiers beside him: "If you want to make people desperate, you have to make people full." Immediately slaughtered all the live pigs we had stockpiled. Reward the soldiers and boost morale. ”
"Yes." The soldiers answered, immediately turned the horse's head, and rode the horse down.
"Wu Nian. Come on. I, Li Chun, will meet you in Licheng. Li Chun was full of confidence, crossed his hands on his hips, and sneered.
Immediately, he turned on his horse and returned to the mansion with his own soldiers.
............
Evening.
Under the guidance of his guide, Wu Nian stayed in an unnamed valley and ordered the Huotou army to bury the pot and make rice. For there were no tents, and they sat on the ground.
Wu Nian took advantage of this time to take a shower and change into a set of clean clothes. Wash the armor and put it on.
Only then did he lead a team of personal soldiers, pressing the steel knife in his left hand, to patrol the valley.
There were the cries of women and children, and the wails of wounded soldiers, but more often than not, there were strong soldiers with resolute faces and steel.
Seeing Wu Nian inspecting the valley, both the soldiers and civilians stood up one after another and bowed to Wu Nian. Wu Nian bowed his head slightly, in response.
After inspecting the valley, Wu Nian came to the steaming iron pot and sat down, Wang Gui and Zhang Sheng, who had been waiting for a long time.
Inside the iron pot is a hodgepodge of dried meat, flatbread, and wild vegetables, and a little salt is put in it. It smells good.
Zhang Sheng picked up the bowl, picked up the spoon, and served a bowl to Wu Nian first.
Wu Nian nodded, stretched out his hand to take it, but did not eat and drink immediately, but put it down and waited for it to cool down for a while.
"Count the time. The Licheng side should have been fooled. After eating this meal and resting for a while, we set off immediately. Let the soldiers go to bed immediately after eating. ”
"Also. I thought about it for a moment. Can be divided into two teams. Civilians and wounded soldiers can rest more and wait until the second half of the night before acting. ”
"Especially the wounded soldiers. A little more rest may save their lives. ”
Wu Nian said seriously.
It's a bit dangerous to leave people here. But Wu Nian felt that the Mengyuan Wanhu who were beaten by him should be very cautious.
It shouldn't be a big deal.
"Yes."
Wang Gui and Zhang Sheng naturally had no opinion, and nodded in unison. Immediately, the two also scooped a hodgepodge and ate and drank with Wu Nian.
When I had filled my stomach, it was getting dark. I rested for about half an hour. Wu Nian led Wang Gui and Zhang Sheng, together with the uninjured elite soldiers and militiamen, carried the ladder, and marched along the wide road for about three miles, then turned and inserted into the Yunshan Trail, abandoned Yacheng, and went straight to Chongxian.
You think I want to fight here, but I actually want to fight here.
This is called unexpected.
