Chapter 167: Do You Dare to Drive the Expedition?
Perform...... Don't act like it?
Do you still need to play such a thing as defeating the battle? Could it be that you still want to rely on the more than 20,000 people in your hands to calculate Sun Wuyi again?
In the face of absolute force, all tricks are in vain!
Pei Zhi also wanted to dissuade, "Your Highness, this time is different from the past, the last time we succeeded in a sneak attack, it was a fluke, this time Sun came prepared, and he will never give us a chance to breathe!" β
"According to the humble position, it is better to send someone to Lincheng as soon as possible to confess the mistake to the prince, and it will not be ......"
Before he finished speaking, he saw Wen Chen raise his hand and interrupted, "Master Pei, do you know the approximate number of silver-armored guards under the command of my father?" β
"Three...... Thirty or forty thousand, ......"
"Then will these thirty or forty thousand silver armor generally leave their father and the king, and go to the battle to kill the enemy?"
Pei Zhi shook his head, "Basically, the silver armor army can be mobilized by the prince's side, and Han Chuang is the fool, but the silver armor army belongs to the prince's own army, even if a small amount is sent out to do business, a large army must be left to protect the prince......"
Wen Chen bowed slightly, as he guessed, the last time Han Chuang took the silver armor army to Qingcheng to pick him up, he also brought about 5,000 people, first, to strengthen the momentum, and secondly, the silver armor army has excellent combat power, and it can also give Emperor Jingren a certain deterrent.
And the last time Emperor Jingren passed by Qingcheng to confer a medal on the cheap Lao Tzu, on the night of his routine factory dulun, he also learned from the old eunuch that the emperor's entourage of the imperial forest army was also 30,000, even if some of them were not brought over, it would not be much more than this number.
"Why is Your Highness asking this?"
Pei Zhi didn't understand why Wen Chen suddenly diverted the topic and talked about the Silver Armor Army.
Wen Chen laughed, "This king is wondering, if Sun Wuji can mobilize the Red Feather Army of Southern Qi to come over, will there be a big man hidden in his army......"
Big shot?
can be called a big man in front of Sun Wuyi, in Southern Qi, I am afraid that there is only the new emperor Hongqing Emperor!
Pei Zhi's body trembled, and his brain seemed to explode!
Just now, he was only concerned about calculating the opponent's strength, but he didn't notice the problem of the number of Red Feather Army.
As far as he knew, as the emperor's pro-army, the number of the Southern Qi Chiling Army would never exceed the number of the prince's silver-armored personal guards, and if Sun Wuyi brought more than 20,000 Chiling troops over, then the Hongqing Emperor of Yanjing City would ......
"Your Highness means that the new lord of Southern Qi is also in the Sun Wuyi array this time?!"
Wen Chen smiled, "It's just a possibility." β
"It is not excluded that Sun Wuyi is quite trusted by the lord of Southern Qi and has given the Red Feather Talisman, but if His Majesty the Emperor really dares to drive the expedition in person this time, then we will make a lot of money this time!"
Hello royal driving pro-Zheng, I will let you have no return!
The two beside them looked stunned, and they naturally knew what it meant.
If Wen Chen really won the battle this time, and His Majesty the Emperor happened to be captured in the battle, the balance between the two sides that had been deadlocked for nearly two hundred years would be completely broken!
But is this really possible?
Since Sun Wuji is confident that Emperor Hongqing will drive the expedition in person, he must have full confidence to take Lucheng, with only 20,000 people, why should he capture the emperor of other people?
The two stood staring at each other, smiling bitterly and shaking their heads secretly.
"Don't be stunned, let's get down to business."
Wen Chen casually urged, and walked out of the General's Mansion with his hands behind his back.
In the past month, the people in the city have basically been escorted to Hekou City, and the Huang Xiao is still a good acquaintance, and after learning that Wen Chen took Lucheng overnight, he also came to visit him in person to show his loyalty.
Now the people wearing cloth clothes on the streets of Lucheng are all ordinary people who were ordered by Wen Chen before and pretended to be by his cronies.
At this time, Yu Miaoling was taking the carriage and distributing the collected herbs to them, and in less than half an hour, smoke rose in the courtyards of every house, and the air was filled with bursts of medicinal fragrance.
This beautiful woman poured out the golden prescription worthy of being a good medicine for intercourse that Zhu You focused on recording in the operation, but the smell of medicine emitted by boiling was smelled by the horses in the city, and they all began to be restless, looking for targets everywhere, and even the familiar Ma Fu could not control it at all.
Fortunately, according to Wen Chen's instructions, Miao Lingrang asked all the people who boiled the medicine to cover their mouths and noses with a scarf in advance, which avoided the famous scene of a group of big men intersecting with sticks......
Pengcheng, above the city walls.
Sun Wuji glanced at Emperor Hongqing, who was carefully dressed as a pawn, and frowned slightly.
"Your Majesty, if you spread the word, you will be laughed at!"
The little emperor sneered, "It's better to be ridiculed than to be the target of everyone......"
This time he came to Pengcheng, but it was the first time for him to drive in person, and he could make an inconspicuous appearance, and he could avoid thieves from worrying!
"Humph!"
"Your Majesty, this is to encourage the arrogance of others and extinguish your own prestige!" The old general was dissatisfied, "Do you still think that the old man with more than 100,000 elites of Daqi can't do a stinky boy who has not dried up?!" β
"Hey......
Emperor Hongqing smiled, "Be careful to sail the ship for ten thousand years, didn't General Sun miss it last time......"
Sun Wuyi's eyes widened, "That's an accident!" β
"The accident is also a miss......"
"Your Majesty, ......?!"
The old general was so angry that his face was flushed, maybe the prisoner who had recently escaped from Lucheng brought some gossip over, which made his own emperor His Majesty unhappy, and these days, he has repeatedly contradicted himself intentionally or unintentionally, making himself very uncomfortable.
But there's nothing you can do about him......
"Newspaperβ"
Two red-armored sergeants ran up from downstairs with slightly angry expressions.
"Tell the general, according to the report of the spies in front, Pei Zhi, the defender of Lucheng, led people to harass our sentry post seventy miles north of the city, with an arrogant attitude and extremely bad behavior!"
Before Sun Wuyi could speak, the little emperor on the side helped the slightly larger iron helmet on his head and asked curiously, "How did they harass him?" β
The red-armored sergeant sighed slightly, "Back to Your Majesty, Pei Zhi and his entourage have attacked our outposts many times, pulled out the clothes of the brothers guarding the cards, tied them to trees and whipped them, and and peed in their tents......"
"Bastard!"
Sun Wuyi shouted angrily when he heard this, "How dare you humiliate my Daqi sergeant so much, is it really muddy for the old man?!" β
"Then the general is doing it, what's the use of just talking......" the little emperor muttered quietly.
The old general gritted his teeth, the reason why he watched and watched in Pengcheng these days and did not move was to send people to find out the news of the enemy army, and secondly, he was afraid of any conspiracy and tricks made by Wen Chen.
But what was waiting for was the rumors brought to the ears of the saint by the captives who escaped from Lucheng, and Pei Zhi's unscrupulous provocation!
At the same time, he also understands that the more he gets to this time, the more calm he must be!
Wen Chen's firearms are extremely powerful, far beyond the range of his own attack, and the samples he brought back last time were still being studied and imitated by the craftsmen of the imperial court, and were not equipped in the army.
But always cowering, it is inevitable that the hearts of the people below will be shaken, and when it is time to fight back, you must resolutely show your sword!
"Someone!"
"Pass the order, two hours later, order the generals of all departments to discuss matters in the general's account, early tomorrow morning, the Red Ling army in the city will assemble outside the north city gate, and the general will personally lead the army to meet this dog offal, let Wanhao and Du San each bring 10,000 horses, and sweep within five miles on the left and right, there must be no mistake!"
"No!"
Compared with the raised eyebrows of the two subordinates, the little emperor beside him looked a little anxious.
"General Sun, if I don't stay in Pengcheng, I can take care of you ......"
Sun Wuyi snorted coldly, "No need!" β
"Your Majesty, you have to remember that you are the main general who subdues Lucheng this time! If the main general is not there, what is the momentum of the 50,000 army?! β
Sometimes he is worried that when he dies of old age in the future, this cowardly majesty will not be able to support the foundation of Daqi for hundreds of years.
So this time we must take him out, grow guts, see the world, and when Dasheng's enemy army fights in the future, Daqi will not fall to the point where no one has the courage to defend the enemy!
