Chapter Ninety-Eight: The Billet City is Broken

Just as I was about to have dinner, someone suddenly came to report that the city was on fire. Where do I believe it, I hurriedly walked out, and saw Kong Ming, Liao Li and others also looking into the city, and when they saw me coming, they were overjoyed and said: "Your Majesty! Something happened in the city, and the city was broken tonight! ”

"Did our people set the fire?" In Xiabil City, in addition to the detailed work arranged a long time ago, there were also soldiers who fled into the city with the defeat of Eastern Wu, as well as the men and horses brought by Sima Zhao when he returned to Sima Yi's men. I'm worried if it's our people who set the fire because of the revelation.

Liao Li shook his head and said, "No." Our people cannot act easily without orders. ”

"How likely is it to be a trap?"

Kong Ming shook his head: "This possibility is very small. How could His Majesty, seeing that victory was in his hands, become overly careful? This is not like my majesty who dared to guard the quail alone and fight against Sima alone. ”

I smiled to myself, and realized that I was too careful, and nodded: "Everything is decided by the prime minister, if you should attack, just attack!" ”

Kong Ming shook his head: "If it is the last battle, it is better for His Majesty to order it personally." ”

I looked at Kong Ming and nodded to him: "Thank you Prime Minister for reminding me." Lord Liao, immediately sent a signal to all the departments in the city to take advantage of the chaos to set fire, disturb the enemy camp, and strive to capture the city gate. Deng Ai, you immediately order all the elite soldiers of Bai'er and attack the north gate of the lower billet. Send a message to Jiang Wei Pound, quickly return to the army, and take the next billet! ”

The crowd shouted in unison.

Jiang Wei and Pang De, who were rushing to Huai'an, successfully broke through the unobstructed Wu army's position and rushed into the camp in Huai'an.

The Huai'an camp was built by Sima Yi in order to use Hongze Lake, Baima Lake and other places as the main battlefield to fight against Ji Han, and use the naval superiority of Eastern Wu to defeat Ji Han. However, because Sima Shi was killed, Sima Yi was furious and avenged himself. Unable to care about the life and death of Dongwu anymore, he led the main force of Dongwu to the north to pursue Lu Xun, and this plan was completely destroyed. After the soldiers who were proficient in water warfare killed each other in Qingzhou, they were surrounded and attacked by Zhang Fei and Ji Han's main force, and suffered heavy casualties.

However, because Ji Han thought more about it at the beginning of the army, he was afraid that the Battle of Qingzhou would not be able to complete the purpose of eliminating the main force of Eastern Wu, so Zhang Fei went south at the same time. Jiang Wei and Pang De's main force galloped down to attack Huai'an. Their combat mission was to lead Huai'an, attack the navy, and burn as many Soochow warships as possible. The second was to occupy the southbound passage to prevent the Soochow army from embarking on ships.

As a result, because they moved south too quickly and too suddenly, Huai'an's position with less than 1,000 people could not stop Jiang Wei and Pang De, two fierce tigers. Before the fight, most of the defenders of Soochow surrendered. Jiang Wei only felt that he was like raising a hundred catties of big swords, but he slashed an ant. Sensitively, he immediately examined the prisoners of war and asked where the main forces of Soochow were.

Although the information investigated by the Zhiwen Institute is very comprehensive and detailed, after all, it cannot be compared with the enemy forces who have contact with the field to understand the real situation. from their mouths. Jiang Wei even learned that due to the recent rumors (naturally the masterpiece of Ji Han's Zhiwen Institute), there were more than rebellions in the northern boundary of the Eastern Wu River, both the rebels who originally belonged to Cao Wei and the subordinates who were loyal to Sun Deng. There are also political speculators who saw that Ji Han was approaching and turned to the wind, and there were also ethnic minorities who were used to being bullied and oppressed by Eastern Wu when they heard that Sun Quan was dead and decided to do a big job. Just recently, a group of thieves in Si County, west of Hongze Lake, swarmed, and Huai'an sent a group to Pingding. In addition, the main force followed Sima Yi to the north, so at present, Huai'an is seriously understaffed.

With these news, Jiang Wei sensitively guessed that the battlefield would move north, and it would be difficult for the enemy to attack the Huai'an line, and perhaps, the battle against Xiabillet would be the last battle. He immediately consulted with Pound, and while flying pigeons rushed to the royal camp. While leading the army north, sure enough, the next day, he received an order from Pang De to hold Huai'an, and Jiang Wei to go north to capture the billet.

The surprise attack on the billet was extremely effective. Sun Wei soon discovered that arson was the second unwise choice in his life besides killing Sun Quan. Once a fire is ignited, it is easy to form a fire, though. There are many people guarding the palace. It is not a catastrophe for the earth, but it has caused panic in people's hearts. The fire was found throughout the city. The soldiers of the Wu army, who did not know the truth, were stunned and did not know what accident had happened.

At this time, Ji Han Zhiwen in the city launched, and they shouted that Ji Han broke the city, and attacked the city gate at the same time, seizing control of the city gate. And another team rushed directly to the palace.

However, at this time, the role of the imprisoned Kan Ze came into play. The lower billet city is the place where Kanze organized and rebuilt. At that time, Sun Quan used this place as a base for attacking the north, and demanded that it be built strongly. In order to ensure that Xiabil City would not fall easily even if it was attacked, Kan Ze still spent a lot of money to strengthen its defense when his troops, financial resources, and material resources were stretched. The slogan he put forward was that even if Ji Han brought the troops of the country to come, he would exhaust the enemy under the fortified city and ensure the arrival of reinforcements from Eastern Wu. He took the fortifications of the city wall as the core, widened the moat, built fortifications outside the city, set up an urn city at the city gate like Xiangyang, and set up a street and lane defense system in the city, forming three reliable lines of defense. The guards and horses in the city were sent by the various armies separately, and they were mobilized in turn, making it difficult to penetrate. Due to the current lack of soldiers, the outer defense line of the city was forced to abandon, but the city wall gate and the inner city defense still played a strong role. And Ji Han didn't dare to attack the city easily at first, waiting for siege weapons because of this.

However, at the moment, the internal performance of the billet is chaotic, and naturally Ji Han does not want to let go of this opportunity. Rushing to the city gate were all soldiers dressed in the costumes of Eastern Wu generals, and the first two were Li Sheng and Guan Suo. Guan Suo was no longer dressed as Guan Gong at this time, but he was dressed in yellow armor with a golden belt around his waist, which was majestic, and he was completely dressed as an emperor. The guards beside him held a piece of yellow silk in his hand, on which dragons and phoenixes were depicted, and it was the appearance of a holy decree.

Li Sheng and his entourage approached the city gate, and someone in the city shouted: "What kind of person, you can't move forward!" ”

Li Sheng saluted Guan Suo, who stopped and held his head high arrogantly. Li Sheng didn't stop, walked forward, and shouted, "Who is the leader?" Stand out! ”

One of the leaders said, "Where are you from?" ”

Li Sheng raised his hand and slapped him in the face: "Bastard!" There is a big change in the city tonight, do you know it? How dare you come and interrogate us? His Royal Highness Yongning Hou Sun Qi came here in person by special order of His Majesty, what do you say is the reason? ”

The leader was dizzy from the beating, and when he heard that there had been a great change in his city, he did not know what the change was. When I heard that it was His Majesty's cousin who had come in person, I was shocked.

Li Sheng shouted: "According to Your Majesty's order, your ministry has Ji Han to work carefully, and ordered us to come and deal with it, and anyone who resists will be killed!" ”

In a word, the Wu army at the entire city gate was stunned. Li Sheng didn't wait for them to react at all, and pointed with his hand at several leaders dressed in generals' clothes: "You." Gather your men and line up in the city! You, lead the Praetorian Guards brought by His Highness, and take over the city for the time being! You, go get the roster! And you, blind can't do it, go and move a stool for Your Highness! ”

The fire of Miyagi, the soldiers and horses outside the city. The sudden will and the marquis of the clan made these people at the city gate indeed a little confused. One obeyed the order, and the rest went into action, and the officers and soldiers at the city gate followed.

At this moment, suddenly there was a loud shout: "Stop!" Then a lieutenant-like man stepped forward.

Guan Suo, who had just sat down, didn't even raise his eyelids: "Who are you?" ”

"Captain Yue Cai. Tai Shi Xiang! Guan Suo was shocked, there don't seem to be many people with the surname Taishi in Dongwu! Could it be the son of Tai Shi Cidi? But Guan Suo scolded: "Why, you dare to stop Benhou from acting according to his orders?" ”

Tai Shixiang said: "Don't dare." Xia Guan just wants to see that holy decree! ”

Guan Suo was furious: "You don't believe that Ben Hou can't succeed? ”

Tai Shixiang said: "It's not that I don't believe it, it's just a routine!" ”

If it were someone else, Guan Suo would have been cut down with a knife long ago, but since he was the son of Tai Shici, then whether he could take it by force alone was still between the two. It's strange, I originally got the news that the Beicheng guard was a son of the Bu family. It's called Bu Xian, this person is timid and afraid, and when he is frightened, he will definitely let it go, who knows that Dongwu has temporarily changed his guard, but Tai Shixiang is not so easy to deal with.

The two looked at each other like cockfights. Guan Suo's heart was empty, but Tai Shixiang was also afraid that he would be reckless, if it was true. It really caused this "Hou Ye" to be angry. It's not easy to get along in the future. At this moment, a person who looked like a little eunuch came on horseback, holding a holy decree in his hand: "Your Majesty has a decree." The Marquis of Yongning quickly took over the city gate and searched for spies. Yue Qi Captain Taishi enjoys returning to the palace to escort! ”

Guan Suo and Tai Shixiang were stunned at the same time, and Guan Suo knelt down and said, "The minister accepts the order." He took the holy decree with both hands, handed it to the guards behind him, and raised his hand to give Tai Shixiang a slap: "Look at the holy decree?" Your Majesty is to blame, you go and talk back to Your Majesty and tell him how you stopped me! ”

Tai Shixiang was beaten, but he was helpless. I had to gather people and horses and follow the little eunuch to Miyagi. After walking less than a hundred steps, he suddenly woke up and asked, "May I ask my father-in-law, which palace are you in on an errand?" ”

The eunuch smiled and said, "What, it's just that you suspect Master Hou, even you dare to doubt me?" ”

Tai Shixiang only felt that the eunuch was laughing weirdly, and his heart became more and more suspicious, and a voice only shouted in his heart: "Isn't it a serial plan?" Could it be that not only is the marquis fake, but the eunuch in the land of the decree is also fake? ”

The eunuch laughed, took a breath, and shook the four fields: "All the armies listen to the order!" At the behest of His Majesty, capture the thief Tai Shixiang, and if he captures him, whether he lives or dies, he will be rewarded with a thousand gold, and he will be sealed as a marquis! ”

As soon as these words came out, Taishi enjoyed a great chaos in the army, some were at a loss, some were angry, and some were already red-eyed after listening to what the marquis said.

Tai Shixiang was furious: "Which of Your Majesty's orders are you serving?" ”

The eunuch lowered his voice and said with a smile in a voice that only Tai Shixiang could hear: "Naturally, it is the will of His Majesty Ji Han!" In the next knowledge of Li Wei, thank you for the completion of the school. ”

Tai Shi Xiang swung his gun in anger, Li Wei raised his hand, the cold light flashed, and a strong crossbow shot straight at Tai Shi Xiang.

Zhuge God Crossbow!

Tai Shixiang was shocked, the generals were most afraid of crossbow arrows, not to mention that they were only a few steps away from each other, and they encountered this kind of beaded crossbow arrows. In a hurry, I felt that my shoulder was numb, and I had been hit by an arrow. At the same time, slashing and slashing, countless figures rushed out of the surrounding houses, rushing towards Tai Shixiang.

Tai Shi Xiang didn't care about killing Li Wei, and hurriedly retreated, wanting to retreat into his own army, but there was chaos behind him, and there were really soldiers who wanted to take advantage of the chaos to attack him.

Tai Shixiang waved his gun with one hand, and punished several people in a row, and then saw that Li Wei had already disappeared. Tai Shi Xiang shouted back: "This eunuch is a fake land, let's go to the city gate quickly!" ”

But it was too late, and the north gate suddenly shouted to kill the sky, and Ji Han's army had poured in like a tide.
