Chapter 60: The Wind Rises in Zengtou City (13)
After three days in a row, Du Biao and Wei Dingguo led the men and horses of Dulonggang and the official army of Lingzhou, surrounded Zengtou City, and attacked little by little.
Three days later, Shi Wengong and Su Ding stood on the gate tower of Zengtou City, looking at the Lingzhou people who had suddenly withdrawn not far from the entrance of the city, and looked at each other with a look of inexplicable worry in their hearts.
"Good news, good news."
Zeng got the dragon head crutches, climbed to the door with an excited face, and said loudly to Shi Wengong and Su Ding: "Two teachers, news is coming from Tokyo, the imperial court has ordered the Lingzhou official army to retreat, in order to avoid accidents, reinforcements were also sent from Qingzhou, the crisis in Zengtou City has passed, and now it is time for us to fight back." ”
When Shi Wengong heard this, he nodded thoughtfully, and looked deeply at the Lingzhou officials and soldiers who were gradually moving away outside the city, and there was always a sense of indescribable ominousness in his heart, but at this time, Shi Wengong didn't plan to say more, but if the crisis in Zengtou City was really resolved, then he should take this opportunity to get out, but he couldn't regenerate the incident because of his words.
Shi Wengong arched his hand towards Zeng Nong, and said sincerely: "Taigong, since the reinforcements are coming and the crisis in Zengtou City has been resolved, please ask Taigong to keep his previous promise and let Shi and the Su Ding brothers leave." ”
"The two teachers just rest assured, Zeng Lang naturally will not break his word and get fat, but now although the Lingzhou official army has withdrawn, the military horses of Dulonggang are still there, and the reinforcements from Qingzhou do not know when they will arrive, and now Wulang is dead, Erlang and Shiro do not know whether they are alive or dead, and please stay a few more days, when this matter is completely over, the two teachers are leaving, and Zeng has decided not to stop it."
Zeng made people old and refined, listened to Shi Wengong's words, and knew that refusing to express himself at this time would only make him disgusted, so he only told the current situation of Zengtou City with a heavy and sad face, which was used to win sympathy.
The atmosphere on the gatehouse stagnated slightly, Su Ding glanced deeply at Zeng Lane and Shi Wengong, and only said what he thought in his heart, and said: "Since Taigong said so, then Su will stay for a few more days, but Su hopes that Taigong will stick to and wait for help, and don't fight with that Dulonggang again, after all, Zengtou City is a foreign land, and it is not good to make this great enemy." ”
Su Ding's words fell, but the speaker had no intention of listening to the heart, although the expression on Zeng Rong's face did not change at this time, but there was a touch of hatred for Su Ding in his heart, in Zeng Rong's view, that Dulonggang killed his most beloved young son, this feud is already a common day, when the Qingzhou reinforcements arrive, it is necessary to make that Dulonggang pay the price, Su Ding just said, but it is to make Zeng Lane have a feeling of betrayal.
Only Shi Wengong is not as straightforward as Su Ding, just after listening to Zeng Rong's words, Shi Wengong has guessed that he will not let himself go, what he did to stay for a few more days is just a delay, if it is really as Su Ding said, it is trapped in the city, unable to get out, if you want to get out of the quagmire dug by the Jurchens in Zengtou City, you must take the initiative to attack, only to have a chance.
Shi Wengong glanced at Su Ding without a trace, and said to Zeng Nong: "Teacher Su does not agree with what Teacher Su said, now that Dulonggang and Zengtou City are already in an endless situation, the flower monk Lu Zhishen killed Wulang, we need to avenge him; Moreover, although the Lingzhou official army was withdrawn, the debts of Erlang and Shiro had to be repaid. ”
"Teacher Shi's words won my heart, and it is difficult to eliminate the hatred in my heart if I don't destroy this Dulonggang to avenge Goro." Zeng pestle the crutch in the pestle's hand and said hatefully.
The corners of Shi Wengong's mouth rose slightly, and said: "In this case, the prince will go and rest first, and leave it to me and Teacher Su here, and when the Qingzhou reinforcements arrive, we will join forces inside and outside, attack on both sides, and destroy the military horses of Dulonggang." ”
Zeng Lang heard this, nodded, turned around and walked towards the gatehouse, only to walk around the corner, he looked deeply at Shi Wengong and Su Ding, and then went down the gatehouse.
After Zeng got it away, the atmosphere on the gatehouse solidified again, and a subtle feeling lingered between Shi Wengong and Su Ding, Shi Wengong looked at each other deeply, sighed in his heart, and said: "Brother, why should I agree to send troops?" ”
Su Ding only glanced up at Shi Wengong, and did not answer, just waited quietly for the following.
"The meaning of Zeng Taigong's words, presumably my brother can also hear it, he can't let us leave at all, so if we want to get out of the quagmire of Zengtou City, we must take the initiative to get out." Shi Wengong continued.
When Su Ding heard this, he nodded undeniably, although he agreed with the other party's words, but his opinion of Shi Wengong in his heart has changed, this Brother Shi has become more and more incomprehensible for this period of time, and Su Ding inexplicably gave birth to a feeling of 'different ways do not conspire with each other'.
"What's my brother's plan?" Su Ding asked.
Shi Wengong looked at his expression, and probably guessed that this brother, who was close to him in the past, was now afraid that there was a gap in his heart, so he didn't want to explain more, and said: "According to Zeng Taigong's statement, presumably the reinforcements from Qingzhou will arrive in the next two days, and Zeng Taigong will definitely ask us to send troops, and we should join forces to attack the military horses of Dulonggang at that time. ”
Su Ding nodded, and after pondering for a while, his face changed slightly, and he said, "Brother's plan is very good, but I always feel that today's incident is a little strange. ”
"But no matter whether it's weird or not, no matter who wins or loses in Zengtou City and Dulonggang at that time, it has nothing to do with us, we just need to get out at that time." Sven replied.
At this time, Shi Wengong had already calculated clearly in his heart, the withdrawal of the Lingzhou official army was too coincidental, and the reinforcements from Qingzhou were too coincidental, I am afraid that the letter sent to Tokyo by Zengtou City a few days ago had already been robbed, and now it is just a plan set by Taishan Jun to calculate the day, but Shi Wengong doesn't care whether this is true or not, he doesn't want to make meritorious contributions to Zengtou City, and he doesn't want to bury him.
"In this case, let it be as my brother says." Su Ding's face froze, and he said in a deep voice.
The red sun traveled westward, Shi Wengong and Su Ding went down the gatehouse one after another, the two of them had their own hearts, and they also had their own plans, but they did not tell what they thought and disced out in their hearts.
