Chapter 42: Rescuing the Rebel Army Generals of Laoyi
When Wu Guang led a thousand Ying Long troops to the outskirts of Laoyi County, he lurked in a depression outside Laoyi City.
Until the end of the hour, Wu Guang did not see the signal of an uprising in the city of Laoyi. Wu Guang couldn't help but get upset for a while, and began to worry about the safety of the rebel army in Laoyi City.
Due to the unclear situation, Wu Guang left a few soldiers to continue to observe the situation in this depression, and he led a thousand Yinglong troops to withdraw to the other end of the county seat of Laoyi.
It wasn't until the beginning of the ugly hour that the soldiers who stayed behind saw a light on the upper floor of Laoyi County flickering rapidly, and then there was no trace. These left-behind soldiers immediately reported the situation to Wu Guang.
After Wu Guang heard the news, he arranged for Ying Long's army to stand by in place, and led dozens of Ying Long's soldiers to sneak back to the depression where they had been lurking before. I saw that the upstairs of Laoyi City was quiet, and there was no signal flashing.
Seeing the silent city tower of Laoyi County, Wu Guang was flustered in his heart, and after weighing it, he decided to go to Laoyi City to find out in person.
A moment later, Wu Guang and two Ying Long soldiers sneaked under the city of Laoyi. The soldier who was hiding on the city tower to send a signal found Wu Guang and the others, only to see that the soldier shot an arrow tied to a letter in front of Wu Guang.
After Wu Guang put away the arrows, he immediately returned to the depression, found a remote place, and read the letter according to the torch:
"General Wu Guang, it seems that the incident tonight has been known by the county commander Liu Tan, but I don't know how much of our secrets Liu Tan knows. Therefore, we will first control the county government soldiers before the decision starts. Again the uprising. If we can't complete the things delivered by the general, please take care of my wife, children, and children in Qindi. ”
Looking at the letter in front of him, Wu Guang guessed that these rebel generals might have been controlled by the Laoyi County Order at this time.
At this critical moment, Wu Guang decided to put the uprising on hold for the time being, and took the rescue of the generals of the uprising in Laoyi County as the top priority. Wu Guang immediately decided to send 200 Ying Long's troops to infiltrate Laoyi to rescue the rebel generals who were controlled by Liu Tan.
Half an hour later, a hundred Ying Long soldiers quietly lurked under a weakly defended city wall, while another hundred soldiers lurked fifty paces away from the city wall to take charge of the guard.
I saw that the Ying Long soldiers under the city wall took out their climbing hooks one after another, shook them and threw them on the city tower, and a group of Ying Long soldiers quickly climbed up the city tower.
After these people stood on the city tower, the hundred Ying Long soldiers who were in charge of guarding also climbed the city tower after them.
When all the 200 Ying Long soldiers ascended the tower, they split up under the leadership of their respective commanders. A small group of South Vietnamese soldiers began to search for them.
An hour later, these Ying Long troops returned to the city tower and assembled, and by this time more than 120 people had changed into the clothes of the South Vietnamese army.
After all the 200 Ying Long troops arrived, a military captain named Fan Hu began to carefully arrange the next action.
After a short while, I saw 120 "South Vietnamese troops" escorting 80 "prisoners" of the Ying Long army towards Laoyi County.
When Fan Hu and his entourage arrived at the Laoyi County Ya, they were stopped by the county government guards.
"Who are you, and why did you come to my county office?" A Laoyi County guard asked.
"We are patrolling the battalion, and when we were patrolling just now, we found a group of thieves sneaking around. As a result, a group of Qin thieves who intended to cause chaos in my Laoyi county town were dug up, so they were escorted to the county government office and asked the county magistrate to deal with it. Fan Hu, who pretended to be a centurion of the South Vietnamese Army, reported to the generals of the Ya Garrison in Lao Yi Province.
"You guys are waiting here, and I'll go and report to the county magistrate."
After a while, I saw a group of Laoyi officials come to the door of the palace.
"Lord Zhao, I said that there will be thieves from the Qin State who will make a rebellion tonight, you still don't believe it, won't there be thieves from the Qin State who have been arrested?" Liu Tan, the commander of Laoyi County, looked at the "thieves of the Qin State" who were "caught" in front of him, and said proudly to the Laoyi County officials standing beside him.
"Liu County's order is like a god, and his humble duties are considered to be served." I saw a lean middle-aged official flattering Liu Tan with a flattering face.
"Which of you is the leader, tell this officer about tonight." Liu Tan asked arrogantly looking at the group of soldiers of the Ying Long Army pretending to be the South Vietnamese Army.
"Your Excellency, when I was patrolling the city tonight, I saw a few sneaky people. He led his brothers to follow quietly, only to see those Xiaoxiao get into a private house, and he led the crowd to surround the private house, and as a result, he found these Qin thieves. Just because of the importance of this matter, the lowly did not dare to deal with it without authorization, so he escorted these thieves to the county government and asked the adults to deal with them. Fan Hu reported to Liu Tanyu with a flattering face.
"Yes, he knows the rules. When this official plays the king of Nanyue tomorrow, he will definitely reward you heavily. ”
"Lord Xie cultivated, but when he was tracking down the news of these thieves, he accidentally discovered a big secret, I don't know if I should say it?"
"Come on," Liu Tan said with a curious expression.
"Your Excellency, this matter is related to the safety of my South Vietnam, and I would like to ask you to move to the humble position. I dare to tell you only one person. ”
Liu Tan glanced at the colleagues around him with a smug face, and walked to Fan Hu excitedly.
When he saw Liu Tan walking towards him, Fan Hu quietly bumped his entourage with his knee.
When Liu Tan walked up to Fan Hu, he saw a bright steel knife on his neck.
At the same time, 200 Ying Longjun drew their swords and rushed towards a group of Laoyi County officials and government defenders.
After a while, I saw Sergeant Ying Long escorting dozens of Laoyi Mansion guards and a group of officials to Fan Hu. Whether it was the high-spirited officials of Laoyi before, or the arrogant defenders of Laoyi Mansion, they all drooped their heads at this moment.
"Tell me, where are you holding the rebel generals who are preparing to revolt?" Fan Hu stared at Liu Tan under his knife and asked.
"Traitor, kill me, don't you want to find out the whereabouts of those rebellious ministers and thieves from me," Liu Tan said firmly.
"Puff ......"
The sound of a sharp blade piercing into the human body clearly reached everyone's ears.
I saw that the lean Zhao official fell in a pool of blood in response, and Fan Hu immediately squatted on the ground, raised his war knife and wiped it on the clothes of Zhao master.
When Fan Hu stood up again after wiping his sword, he smelled a fishy smell coming from Liu Tan, and saw a water stain extending from Liu Tan's thigh to the soles of his feet.
"Those thieves, oh no, the heroes were placed in the Laoyi County Prison by me, and I will take the general to release them."
At this time, Fan Hu didn't need to say anything more, Liu Tan had already begun to explain obediently. After the explanation, he took the initiative to lead Fan Hu and his entourage to the Laoyi County Prison and released a group of rebel generals of the South Vietnamese Army.
When the generals of the South Vietnamese Army uprising walked out of the Laoyi County prison, they looked at Fan Hu and others who had been in contact with them before, and realized that Fan Hu and his party had held a group of officials in Laoyi County hostage. So he joined Fan Hu's team without hesitation, and together with Fan Hu, he escorted the officials of Laoyi County and the guards of the government to the gate of Laoyi County, opened the city gate and let Wu Guang's 800 Yinglong army enter Laoyi County.
When the 5,000 South Vietnamese troops stationed outside the city of Laoyi arrived at the city of Laoyi, Wu Guang had completely controlled the county seat of Laoyi.
