Chapter 334: Assault (I)
In a few days, although the dynasty army won successive battles, the situation in Zhongzhou was not as optimistic as imagined.
The only Dynasty Army stationed in Zhongzhou today is the Cycad Horse and Zhao Guangfu in Sanmenxia, and Yin Xiu, who is fortified in the area of Yeniuling. Because the Bison Ridge is a natural barrier sandwiched between Zhongyang Pass and Sanmenxia, it must be heavily guarded, although Yin Xiu led not many soldiers and horses, but with his generation of famous generals to guard here is enough.
As for Tai Shuhong, now he has the army and is self-respecting, as if he wants to cut off the king, so he can't use it as a reinforcement, let alone an ally. At the beginning, after Su Tiema and Yin Xiu joined forces to defeat the Three Demon Kings, they handed over Zhongyang Pass to Tai Shuhong, who rushed here from Jiuli to support, and personally led the troops into Sanmenxia to command the front-line battle. And after Uncle Hong won Zhongyang Pass, he didn't obey his orders, which made Su Tiema regret it, knowing that he would not hand over Zhongyang Pass to him anyway. Now he is still under the banner of the dynasty army, in case he is rebelled by King Peng that day, all the soldiers and horses in Sanmenxia will really reach the point where there is no way out.
In addition, Mo Yiyue is still in a coma, although she is out of danger, she is also seriously injured, and it is still unknown whether she can wake up in a short time.
In front of Mu Tangtang, Mu Yuncheng did not tell him about seriously injuring Mo Yiyue, and Yin Fengyou did not say a word about it, so everyone thought that Mo Yiyue was seriously injured in the process of fighting.
"Why are you okay at all, and Brother Yiyue is so seriously injured!" Mu Tangtang questioned Mu Yuncheng in front of everyone, showing more concern for Mo Yiyue's injury process.
And Mu Yuncheng only said that Mo Yiyue was seriously injured because he was plotted by someone, and what he was worried about was that he was afraid that after telling the truth, everyone would misunderstand him, and he would really go crazy, and even the people around him would be hurt.
He began to try to lie, which he believed was well-intentioned to prevent people from distracting themselves from it.
And now there is a very tricky thing, that is, Sanmenxia is about to run out of food.
Originally, the grain and grass in Sanmenxia were supplied by the imperial city, and after the Xiliang army captured the imperial city, the grain and grass left by the Sanmenxia Cycad Horse alone was enough to last for a month. But now Zhao Guangfu's troops are also stationed in Sanmenxia, and there is not much grain and grass left in his department, and the Su Tiema department, which is already scarce in grain and grass, has to distribute grain to Zhao Guangfu's sergeants, which is undoubtedly worse for the original garrison in Sanmenxia.
Su Tiema truthfully reported the matter to Huaiyu, and Huaiyu's order was to recapture the imperial city at all costs.
This made it very difficult for everyone, how to recapture the imperial city in the shortest possible time in the middle of the attack between the Xiliang army and the Chiyou tribe.
Today's Sanmenxia is not a group of talents, but it is also a gathering of talents. Although Su Tiema and Zhao Guangfu are experienced generals, they are also rare young talents in the dynasty.
In the case that Mo Yiyue was seriously injured, now everyone is naturally at the mercy of Su Tiema.
In the military conference hall of the city tower, in the face of the current critical situation, everyone was silent, only Su Tiema stood in front of the map, and analyzed for everyone: "Now it seems that the army of the Three Demon Kings is blocked by our army outside Sanmenxia, and as soon as the army of King Ning arrives, it can form a front and rear encirclement." But in fact, the current situation of our army is not optimistic. In our rear is the Xiliang army that is eyeing the Hundred Miles Divine Whale, and in front is the thunder army of the great enemy Zhongpeng Wangye, the three demon kings. Once there is a change, our army can only break through from the top and bottom, or go north to Donghuangling, or go south to join Yin Xiu, in short, once lost, the situation in Zhongzhou will be complicated. ”
Although he did not mention Tai Shuhong stationed in Zhongyang Pass, the implication has already been made clear, Tai Shuhong saw that the imperial city was lost, and he had lost confidence in the dynasty army. Once he tears his face with the dynasty army, Sanmenxia will fall into a situation from which he will never recover.
"It seems imperative to lead troops westward to open the gap. But once our army led troops to attack the Imperial City, the Three Demon Kings would know through the eyes of the Imperial City. He will immediately give the order to attack Sanmenxia, and at that time, our army will attack and defend at the front, and it will definitely not last. "Zhao Guangfu showed great concern about leading his troops to attack the imperial city.
Everyone fell silent again.
Seeing Mu Yuncheng suddenly stand up, he said: "Launch a sudden attack on the Imperial City, and strive to resolve the battle within one day, so that even if Prince Peng learns the information that we are attacking the Imperial City, it will be too late to stop the attack on Sanmenxia." ”
"What! Raid the Imperial City, settle the battle in a day? Are you sure you're not kidding. Xin Su, who joined the army, immediately raised an objection. Although the imperial city was lost, it was captured by the Xiliang army on the premise that Emperor Gong abandoned the city. Even the Xiliang army did not dare to attack in the face of the strong city defense of the imperial city, and relied on surprise attacks to solve the battle in one day, isn't this joking with the future of the dynasty?
"I don't need a single soldier of the Dynasty Army, just me and a few brothers from Tianxiaomen formed a team and went to the imperial city overnight to kill the Hundred Miles Divine Whale. Mu Yuncheng glanced left and right, only to see You Shifang, Yin Fengyou and the others all had affirmative eyes, expressing support for his suggestion.
In this way, Xin Su also sat back and did not say a word of objection.
It's just that Su Tiema was a little worried about Mu Yuncheng's proposal, "The imperial city at this time is undoubtedly the Longtan Tiger's Den, and the body of Hou Wanjin in the clouds, only led a few people to go, I'm afraid it's inappropriate." ”
"It's okay, I'll explain this to Emperor Gong later. Mu Yuncheng turned around and walked out of the hall, and was about to go downstairs, when he saw Mu Qilin rushing out from the side, blocking Mu Yuncheng's way.
"Brother Mu, are you going to the Imperial City? I'm going too, please take me with you!" He had just overheard everyone's speeches beside him, so he asked Mu Yuncheng to take him with him on this mission.
"No! this operation is not child's play, I can't take you to risk it together!" Mu Yuncheng naturally refused categorically, and no matter what Mu Qilin thought, he walked downstairs quickly and walked towards Huaiyu's tent.
......
Coming out of Huaiyu's tent, Ren Tianhao was the first to greet him and asked, "How is it, what did Emperor Gong say." ”
Mu Yuncheng shook his head and said, "Emperor Gong refuses to let you and me take risks, he intends to stick to Sanmenxia and wait for King Ning's reinforcements to arrive." ”
"Then we ......" Ren Tianhao sighed, greatly regretting this.
Seeing Mu Yuncheng's eyebrows not spread, he looked around and said carefully: "As the saying goes, there will be no disapproval of the king's life outside." To lead the troops into battle, we have to be improvised, even if Emperor Gong does not agree, we still have to follow the plan. Go back and prepare for tonight. ”
After he said that, out of worry, he instructed again: "This plan must be kept secret and never leaked to others." ”
Several of them expressed their understanding, and then returned to their respective camps to prepare for tonight's operation.
