Xu He, who was in the city, handed over the letter, and saw Yang Bo showing his face, and there was no movement for the things he wanted for a long time.

Tan Lun frowned and said, "What's going on with this court?" Let's lead the soldiers to the king, risk death to rush to the city, there is no one to comfort him, why don't you even have a person to deal with? ”

Xu He was also a little confused: "Could it be that Yang Bo is too happy to see us?" Busy giving the first assistant the good news? ”

Then he shook his head and said, "No, this good news and errand thing will not be done by the dignified ministers, right?" ”

He called Wu Decao and whispered a few words.

Wu Decao heard this and shouted towards the head of the city: "Jingwei commands Tongzhi, and the horse Xu He leads the troops to King Qin, is Elder Yang Ge still there?" ”

shouted a few times in a row, and then he showed his head from the city tower and said, "Lord Xu, Yang Ge has something to do and left in a hurry, you wait for a while!" ”

Xu He was simply stunned when he heard this.

Yang Bo just left?

He led the soldiers to the king, such a big thing, he actually left himself directly and really left?

Is there something more important in the city than leading the army to serve the king?

Don't......

When he turned his head, Tan Lun happened to look at him and whispered, "Could it be that the emperor is doing a great job?" ”

Xu He's heart suddenly "chuckled", if Emperor Zhizheng died at this time, it would undoubtedly be a heavy blow to Great Wei.

……………………

At this moment, in the yamen, the commander of the Qiantun Acropolis in Xianghe Yingzhou, I was sitting in the lobby and was discussing the matter of hitting the grass valley in the direction of Baodi.

At this moment, Pegasus arrived outside, and his subordinates announced: "Lord Wanhu, according to General Hu Erchi, who stayed in Luocheng, he sent someone to report that a detachment of men and horses had made a detour from the south today and had arrived under the city wall of Dongcheng in Beijing!" ”

"Suddenly, General Chi asked the villain to ask Wanhu, what should I do next?"

Zhao Quan, the leader of the White Lotus Sect under the hall, was shocked when he heard this, and said: "Lord Wanhu, now that Ma Lanyu is lost, there is no way for us to retreat. Now that the enemy's reinforcements have arrived, if we don't retreat, I'm afraid we will be attacked from both sides! Please quickly gather the soldiers and horses and slowly go out of the customs in the direction of Xuanfu! ”

Because the raids were confined to the north and east of Peking, and because the troops were not as abundant as in previous years, the goods and wintering rice and grain of the Tumut households in Alta were not enough to support the winter losses of the 30,000 households of the right wing.

To tell the truth, I didn't want to leave so soon, his original plan was to grab three more days, and then gather troops and horses to Tongzhou, and after the almost empty city of Tongzhou was taken down, the Caoku in Tongzhou was emptied, and finally escorted the looted things and people, and slowly withdrew from the Guanwai.

But what Zhao Quan said is also that the soldiers and horses of King Qin, who are from Wei, have already come, although he bluffs and claims that there are 100,000 people, but in fact he only has less than 20,000 men and horses along the way.

If these people were surrounded by a steady stream of soldiers and horses of King Wei Guoqin, even lice could bite the elephant to death.

At this moment, someone suddenly put forward a different suggestion: "Zhao Bansheng's words are wrong!" ”

I Da and Zhao Quan turned their heads to look at the person who spoke in unison, and saw that it was the former Ma Lanyu guerrilla Meng Hong, of course, now he has changed his name to Meng En, and has become a loyal dog of the Tatars.

At this time, he did not provide the Tatars with the reality of the Wei army near Shuntianfu, and now Meng En has faintly surpassed Zhao Quan in the heart of Alta, and firmly occupies the position of the first traitor among the Han people in the Tatar department.

Zhao Quan saw that it was Meng En again, and he was immediately furious: "Meng En, what do you mean by this?" Don't you know that Ma Lanyu has been lost? Do you want to let Wanhu be blocked by the Wei army in the pass, unable to advance and retreat? ”

When I heard this, I looked at Meng En's gaze and suddenly became suspicious.

Meng En hurriedly arched his hand and said: "Wan Hu, the heart of heaven can be learned, since I, Meng En, have come up with an idea that is not for the sake of Wan Hu and our Tatar Department?" Zhao Bansheng is completely jealous and has repeatedly made new contributions. ”

"You!" Zhao Quan was said to be the center, and he was immediately furious.

"Enough!"

At this moment, I glared at Zhao Quan.

Turning his head and smiling at Meng En, "General Meng, you say!" Ben Wanhu has always trusted you! ”

Meng En was overjoyed, knelt on the ground and said: "Wanhu, as I guess below, the reinforcements coming must be the Wei army of Tianjin Sanwei!" The combat strength of these people is definitely better than a few guards and horses around the capital, but in the eyes of us Tatars, they are just jokes about riding pigs with swords and guns! ”

Meng Hong is mixed with officialdom in the end, and one sentence suddenly made me happy: "General Meng, you go on!" ”

"Yes, Wanhu!" Meng En glanced at Zhao Quan, and his face showed a slight smugness, but he quickly reined in and continued, "The combat power of Tianjin Sanwei is weaker than the border army in my opinion, and it is comparable to the combat power of the three major battalions of Wei Ting. ”

"Although they came to help, they could only rely on the city wall to threaten General Kuerchi!"

"If Wanhu can restrain General Ku Erchi, avoid contact with the soldiers and horses of Tianjin Sanwei, and still take watching Beijing City as the first priority, then the soldiers and horses of Tianjin Sanwei will not dare to pull out to fight with our Tatar warriors!"

I nodded with satisfaction, and his tone became more gentle: "General Meng, you go on!" ”

But at this time, Zhao Quan interjected: "Wanhu, don't listen to his nonsense, Tianjin Sanwei is unbearable, if Wei Ting is forced to fight with us, it will cause us some trouble after all." ”

Meng En smiled coldly and did not speak.

I replied and immediately urged: "General Meng seems to have other opinions? ”

Meng En arched his hand and said: "Wanhu, you think, if Tianjin Sanwei can be mobilized, how can it be so many days to rush to Beijing?" ”

I nodded thoughtfully: "So you think Tianjin Sanwei is actually just coming to Beijing to pretend!" ”

Meng En nodded: "Wanhu, what I really need to pay attention to is that in the words passed by General Ku Chi just now, those strangely dressed cavalry, these people should be the Wei army that attacked Ma Lanyu before!" ”

I replied in surprise when I heard this: "Is that the soldiers and horses under Xu He's hands?" ”

Meng En said: "Exactly, these people are elusive and did not stay under the city wall with the men and horses of Tianjin Sanwei, so I think Xu He wants to hide in the shadows and attack us while we are unprepared!" ”

"Shhh I was shocked when I heard this, and said, "Then what should I do?" ”

Meng En thought about it and suddenly had an idea: "Lord Wanhu, what do you say Wei Ting is most worried about now?" ”

"Nonsense, of course it's our Tatar warriors who have broken through their capital divisions, and they are talking tricky!" Zhao Quan said disdainfully.

Meng En sneered: "Zhao Bansheng, if I were an idiot like you, I would choose to shut up and not speak!" ”

Zhao Quan was furious: "What did you say? You're just a dog that has just been tamed, how dare you talk to me like that? ”

"Shut up, Zhao Bansheng, you go out for me, I don't need you to serve here!"

When Zhao Quan heard this, he was immediately indignant, glared at Meng En, and then reluctantly turned around and walked out of the lobby.

After I saw him leave, I smiled and said to Meng En: "You say! ”

Meng En arched his hand and said: "Wanhu, the capital, we have too few people, after the raid, Wei Ting has defense, we can't attack it." ”

I nodded.

"So, the most nervous thing for Wei Ting now is Tongzhou!"

"Because Tongzhou has a new harvest of autumn grain this year, we didn't want to waste time on the siege before, and we were ready to take Tongzhou down before leaving, and empty it together!"

"But now we're going to change our strategy!"

"You mean...... Encirclement for reinforcements? Attack it and save it? Forcing Wei Ting to let Xu He come to save Tongzhou? ”

Meng En was taken aback and said, "I didn't expect Wanhu to know the Han art of war?" ”

I smiled to myself!
