Chapter 265: Ambush on All Sides (2)
Everyone followed the prestige, and the person who spoke was Zhu Youwen.
Fake Li looked at Zhu Youwen, who spoke in a deep voice, his eyes flashed, and he didn't interrupt.
He knew that Zhu Youwen was an old man, although he had been locked up for a long time, he was mentally ......
But Zhu Youwen still has a lot of old experience to learn from.
The so-called Shu and Chu reinforcements came too strangely, and before that, they didn't get any news related to them, which was simply weird.
Even if the opponent's soldiers and horses are all cavalry, and they go out day and night, wrapped in armor, they should not be unable to receive the news, after all, the soldiers and horses in Chu and Shu want to Yangzhou, and there are many checkpoints and roads along the way.
Unless the two countries send reinforcements through the land of other princes.
But sometimes things are bad because there is no choice.
Everyone knows that this reinforcement is suspicious, very suspicious, but now the Liang army is coming to the city, like a black cloud pressing the city, and the city wants to be destroyed, Chuzhou has fallen, and the entire Wu government and the opposition are in a panic.
The retribution of their killing in Xu Wen's mansion is now coming, and in order to make up for the mistake of killing Xu Wen, they have to make an even bigger mistake and kill Xu Wen's remnants.
The butcher's knife can hold the world for a while, but it can't hold it for a lifetime, when the Liang soldiers came to the city, the last knife that was waved in Xu Wen's mansion that day finally fell on them.
At this time, Wu Guotai needed a reinforcement. Not because this reinforcement has the ability to change the tide of the battle, just to revive morale.
The sergeant looked at the ghost king Zhu Youwen, turned around and clasped his fists and saluted.
"You're talking about cavalry?" Zhu Youwen looked at the sergeant and said in a cold voice.
"The ghost king, the villain is anxious to report and didn't see it clearly, but I saw that most of his army were cavalry." The sergeant didn't fully understand the situation of the military formation, but saw a large number of cavalry, and he didn't dare to say more, so he had to report it truthfully.
"Do you see what kind of horses are in his army?" Zhu Youwen looked at the sergeant and asked calmly.
When Zhong Xiaokui heard this, he was a little puzzled at first, but soon, Zhong Xiaokui, who had been following Zhu Youzhen in the army all the year round, reacted to the meaning of his own ghost king.
If you want to distinguish whether the soldiers and horses that suddenly appeared outside the city are the ambush soldiers of Daliang or the reinforcements of Shu and Chu, it is very simple, aren't most of them cavalry?
Just look at the horses in its army, most of the horses in Shu are bantam horses, and the flags and armor can be camouflaged, but how can so many horses be camouflaged?
'The ghost king is wise. Zhong Xiaokui thought secretly in her heart.
"Back to the ghost king, according to the villain's observation, most of the horses in his army are bantam horses." The sergeant replied respectfully to Zhu Youwen.
"Oh?" Zhu Youwen looked at the sergeant in front of him, nodded, and signaled that he could continue to complete the order.
'Interesting. Zhu Youwen thought silently in his heart.
Zhu Youwen's heart greatly increased the possibility that the cavalry outside the city was Shu and Chu reinforcements, although he still did not completely let down the vigilance in his heart.
After all, is it possible that there are still people in this world who can conjure a large number of Shudi horses out of thin air?
"That'...... Ladies and gentlemen, shall we open the gates of the city and welcome reinforcements into the city? Yang Longyan looked at the people in the hall a little eagerly, and said anxiously.
Fake Li opened his mouth speechlessly and looked at Yang Longyan on the throne.
Letting your guard down so easily?
No wonder Xu Wen bullied you Yang Longyan so much, if he pretended to be Xu Wen, he probably couldn't help but make trouble, for no other reason, a fool like Yang Longyan became the king, isn't this God feeding the thief all the time?
But it's okay, it's because Yang Longyan is this kind of easy-to-control waste that he can tolerate him if he fake Li.
"Zhong Kui." Zhu Youwen's figure did not move, and he said indifferently.
"Ghost King." Zhong Xiaokui took a few steps forward, hugged his fist at Zhu Youwen, and said respectfully.
"You take someone out of town to find out." Zhu Youwen opened his mouth and ordered to Zhong Xiaokui.
"Yes, Ghost King." Zhong Xiaokui was stunned for a moment when she heard this, then said respectfully, and then turned to leave.
……
Zhong Xiaokui took the lead and rushed out of the gate of Yangzhou City, greeted by a wide field, full of greenery and picturesque.
Sunlight shone through the sparse clouds, illuminating the green hills that stood in the fields. In the distance, the river is gurgling, like a clear spring, holding up the whole scenery. A few egrets soar freely, fluttering slowly, and occasionally, a breeze blows by, bringing a hint of floral fragrance.
It's just that Zhong Xiaokui didn't have the heart to appreciate the beautiful scenery outside Yangzhou City at this moment, and she only had the unknown cavalry outside the city in her heart.
Behind Zhong Xiaokui, there were also more than a dozen Xuanming Sect members wearing black armor and ghost faces, also riding war horses, holding scimitars, following Zhong Xiaokui's pace.
According to the guidance of the sergeant who came to report the news before, Zhong Xiaokui quickly found the so-called Shu and Chu cavalry outside the city.
Looking at this cavalry from a distance, it was indeed fighting the banners of Shu and Chu, which made Zhong Xiaokui's heart relax a little.
"Someone." Zhong Xiaokui stood on his horse and opened his mouth to order.
"Your Excellency." Behind him, several Xuanming Sect members hurriedly stepped forward and responded.
"Come forward and call the battle." Zhong Xiaokui ordered.
Of course, this kind of thing is for his subordinates to do.
"Yes." When a Xuanming Sect member heard this, he immediately pulled the reins and rushed towards the distant military array.
……
Somewhere in a dense forest.
Under a tree, enjoy the greenery of the branches, and the sunlight penetrates the leaves, sprinkling on the ground, turning into mottled poems.
Da He Feng was dressed in a coarse cloth robe, holding a mountain barbarian cane, kneeling on one knee, hiding his body in the shade of a tree, and the mountain barbarian staff exuded a strange light under the action of Dahe Feng's internal force.
"Fish, hooked." Da He Feng said indifferently, at this moment, he was full of confidence, as if everything in the world was under control.
On his side, Li Cunli was dressed in a white robe, leaning against a tree, his hands in his sleeves, his eyes closed, and he did not give any response to Da He Feng's words.
"Your Excellency." After a while, Bar Fei crossed to Li Cunli's side, knelt on one knee, and said, "The person who came was dressed in red, like Zhong Kui, who had been missing for a long time from the Xuanming Sect.
There are also a few Xuanming sect members. ”
"Do you want to do it, Sixth Brother?" Li Cunren was beside Li Cunli, raised his hand, looked at his palm, and asked Li Cunli.
"How many times have you said it, when you work, you call it a position." Li Cunli looked at Li Cunren and said with some dissatisfaction.
"I'm sorry, General." When Li Cunren heard this, his eyes froze, but in the end, he endured it, hugged his fist at Li Cunli, and spoke.
"Don't be in a hurry, put a long line to catch a big fish." Li Cunli opened his mouth and ordered without any fluctuation in his tone, and immediately, he turned to Da He Feng and said to him: "Remember everything I gave you before?" ”
