Volume 15 The Winner is King Chapter 1217 Scourge Enters the City

In the military tent, the topographic map of Jincheng was opened and put on the table, Hu Wei and other generals gathered around the table, and several middle-level officials were sweating to add marks to the map. k update

There are already a lot of places on the map with a table of defensive garrison deployments, which seems even more chaotic now.

The generals around the table frowned more and more, and the smiles on their faces became less and less. The dots added at the back are all materials for the surprise interrogation of those heavy armored cavalry. Because of their special identity and large number of people, they can definitely get the most authentic information by repeatedly comparing the confessions of hundreds of people.

"The defense of Jincheng is even more severe than we imagined, fortunately we encountered these 20,000 heavy armored cavalry first, otherwise we would attack rashly, even if it is a surprise attack, we will inevitably suffer heavy losses. Lin Zhengfeng said with a scared face.

Before Hu Wei set off, he had already collected a large amount of information about Jincheng. It can be said that although I have never been to this reason, I know every street well. But now comparing the previous information, he was still shocked.

When he learned that these 20,000 heavy armor belonged to Jincheng before, Hu Wei was quite happy. In his opinion, Jincheng is the capital of Chihe and the hinterland of a country, and it is already great to have 20,000 heavy cavalry on weekdays, and now that these 20,000 heavy cavalry have been detained by him, there will be no cavalry in Jincheng.

But now it seems that Hu Wei has a serious deviation in both intelligence and judgment. Jincheng is not that there are no cavalry except for these 20,000 heavy cavalry, on the contrary, there are not only them, but they are also very large.

It is not to blame that Hu Wei's intelligence is inaccurate, but that the plan cannot catch up with the changes. More than twenty days before Hu Wei arrived in Jincheng, the Chihe Empire broke out in the largest peasant uprising in history, and the source of this uprising was in Shuilingpo, which was less than fifty miles away from Jincheng.

A riot of this magnitude in such a close proximity to the capital is a national priority in any country. Zhao Erte almost went crazy the whole time, and issued twelve gold medals in a row in one day, recruiting the soldiers of the king of Qin from all walks of life to Jincheng.

Since the peasants had no command and fought with all their courage, the army was afraid before it reached them, and in less than three days it collapsed.

But the impact of the uprising went far beyond that. Zhao Ert was very angry about this incident. He ordered that all those who might be involved should be killed. Except for a small part of these soldiers who returned to their original places, most of them stayed near Jincheng. At present, there are 150,000 cavalry and 300,000 infantry in the vicinity of Jincheng alone. That is to say, Jincheng has already reached 450,000 troops without counting the Praetorian Guard, and sure enough, if you count the 100,000 forbidden army, the total strength is a terrifying 550,000, even if Zhao Bao's 20,000 people are detained by Hu Wei, it will be 530,000 people. The soldiers of a country are now all gathered here. Lin Zhengfeng's words have already left room for them, if they really rush forward, they are 150,000 people, I am afraid that there will be no return.

"Your sister's. ”

Hu Wei scolded fiercely. Then what kind of peasant uprising will not come sooner or later, it must come at this time. No wonder there was no letter at all before, according to this time, the time of the peasant uprising was exactly the time when they entered the mountains. There wasn't even a bird in the mountain trail, how could they possibly get the slightest bit of news.

"Young Marshal, I'm afraid we're going to change our plans. Ouyang Narcissus said.

By the time the 20,000 heavy cavalry were captured, almost all the generals in the army had already seen the victory, and Hu Wei had already made a plan to use the 20,000 cavalry equipment to cover and raid Jincheng, and tentatively scheduled to carry it out overnight at midnight tonight.

But then they got the news that shocked them. The 530,000 troops, even in the event of a surprise attack, still have a strong counterattack strength. Raids have become no longer meaningful, and naturally they are no longer possible. ...,

Despite his displeasure, Hu Wei had to suspend his plan. But the next question is also in front of them.

Zhao Bao is Zhao Erte's son, and the fact that he secretly ran out of the palace with his troops must have been discovered by Zhao Erte. These soldiers can be outside for one day, two days, absolutely not three days or four days, and now there is not much time left for Hu Wei.

Hu Wei has two options. One is where to go back and forth. It doesn't matter if all the 20,000 heavy cavalry are killed, no matter what, anyway, after dealing with them, they will immediately turn back the same way. I got 20,000 sets of equipment on this trip, and it was not for nothing.

But Hu Wei is not reconciled. After half a month of hard work and the loss of more than a thousand soldiers' lives, I thought I could harvest an empire, but now I have only harvested 20,000 cavalry equipment, and the effort and harvest are too disproportionate.

Of course, Hu Wei still has another choice. That is to continue the previous plan, no matter how much he had, how he planned to fight before, and how to fight now.

Hu Wei pulled his hair in pain, this is easy to say, but it is not the same thing when it really fights. The enemy has 530,000 troops, and although Hu Wei is not afraid of them, this is not a matter of fear, but of losses. Hu Wei has 150,000 soldiers, even if he uses all kinds of tricks, fully exerts his combat effectiveness, and defeats Zhao Erte with 150,000, it will definitely be a disastrous victory. This is the capital of the Chihe Empire, once the war starts, Hu Wei cannot be replenished by the outside world whether it is the source of troops or food and grass, but Zhao Erte is different, this is his territory, even if the 530,000 troops are all over, you can get more 530,000, and the final defeat must be Hu Wei.

The good plan turned out like this, Hu Wei really smiled bitterly. Leave, he will never leave. Anyway, the next time I come back, Hu Wei's people will not increase, and there will not be such a good opportunity as now. Fighting is a must be fought, and now it seems that it should be fought.

The meeting was temporarily dismissed without results. There is no result, and it is not interesting to drive any further, it will only be a waste of time.

In the empty military tent, only Hu Wei was left. The gaze of the general is no longer always on his body, but the pressure on Hu Wei's body is not easy at all. The lives of 150,000 people are all on him.

"Brother Hu Wei, let's eat something first. "Ouyang Shuixian changed out of his military uniform and changed to a skirt, not called 'young marshal' because he wanted to temporarily relieve some pressure on Hu Wei.

"Eat, I don't have much appetite. Hu Wei shook his head, this would be dragon meat, he couldn't eat it.

Ouyang Shuixian put the things on the table, came to Hu Wei's side with a burst of fragrance, and said, "Brother Hu Wei, don't you often say that it is up to people to make things happen, and it is up to heaven to make things happen." The current situation is not what you think, and it is not your fault, why should you embarrass yourself. The world is the world of the people of the world, and the stomach is yourself. ”

"When I was about to go out, Sister Momiji, eldest sister, Sister Yufeng ......"

"Gotta stop. I can't eat it. "Hu Wei is really afraid of Ouyang Narcissus. If she doesn't eat anymore, she can carry out all the worried old women.

Rice, greens, and a few slices of jerky, Hu Wei's food was no different from that of a soldier because of his status. This is the tradition of the Immortal Bird Legion, and in wartime, no matter how big an officer is, a qiē is eaten the same as a soldier.

Many people have studied the success of the Immortal Legion, but not many people have noticed this, and even if someone finds out, they can't do it in their own army. Many things are not changed just by saying, they are not determined by the will of the commander, and there are too many factors to influence it.

Ouyang Narcissus is worthy of being born as a princess, and she can also eat elegant food. Sometimes watching her eat is also a pleasure. However, Hu Wei will obviously not be in that mood. ...,

Without any taste in mind, Hu Wu solved his own meal in a few clicks, food will be just food in his eyes, eating is an action to supplement the needs of the body, nothing else.

"Brother Hu Wu, you wait for me. Ouyang Shuixian couldn't help but feel a little anxious when he saw Hu Wei eating so quickly.

Hu Wei smiled reluctantly: "Don't worry, you eat slowly." I'll go outside. ”

The night in Hechi was particularly long, and it came earlier than in other places, and when Hu Wei was still in a meeting, it was already dark, and it would have already turned into night.

In order not to expose the target, Hu Wei ordered that no bonfires should be lit, and at this time the entire military camp was completely dark, only the faint moonlight, which lent people not a lot of light.

The soldiers of the Immortal Bird Legion are very disciplined, they should eat and rest, and even if someone is talking, they keep their voices to a minimum.

As he was walking, Hu Wei faintly heard the noisy sound, and he was unhappy, so he immediately frowned. He wanted to see which group of soldiers dared to mess with him.

Hu Wei is not the kind of violent character, but when he is in a bad mood, it is difficult to say when he meets disobedient soldiers.

People are emotional animals, and since they have feelings, they have to vent. A person who has been suppressed for a long time, once it breaks out, it will be very terrible. Of course, Hu Wei is not that kind of person, he just wants to know where the sound comes from now.

Following where the sound came from, Hu Wei found the source of the sound. It was not sent by the soldiers of the Immortal Bird Legion, but by the Anrong army who were camped in the same camp as the Undead Bird Legion.

Compared with Hu Wei's troops, Lin Zhengfeng's troops were obviously much worse, although during the fifteen days of marching together, they showed signs of being assimilated by the Immortal Bird Legion, but after all, they had not been together for a long time, and the impact was there, but it had not yet reached the time of complete change.

At this time, several Anrong soldiers were playing a kind of chess called mountain chess. This is a unique chess type of Anrong, and only Anrong people like to play, generally speaking, most of the people who see this kind of chess are Anrong people.

Hu Wei has also spent a lot of time in Anrong, and he was a classmate of Lin Zhengfeng a long time ago, so he can play such chess.

It's not his own soldiers, and Hu Wei doesn't intend to scold them. Although the two armies are now in cooperative relations, their respective soldiers are in charge of each other, and even if Hu Wei is the nominal commander-in-chief, it is not good to have too many bad hands. Besides, the soldiers have now played a new game of chess, and there is no more noise.

Mountain chess is a simple type of chess, there are not many kinds of chess, just black and white, some similar to Go, but the way to play Go is different. Go is to play words on the chessboard, and mountain chess is to pull out the opponent's discs as much as possible, and the one with more discs wins.

If both Go and Shanwei evolved from war, then Go is a game, and Mountain Go is a hard work. Every step of mountain chess, while killing the enemy, it is also consuming a lot. Killing 1,000 enemies and losing 800 self-losses, Shanqi is a war of attrition.

Hu Wei stopped unconsciously, and also watched the game of chess on the side. Several soldiers were focused on the chessboard, and they felt that there were more people on the side, and they didn't care very much. They are not sentinels, they have no guard duty.

"I'm coming. You're going to ......," the soldier sitting in front of Hu Wei kept muttering while playing chess. Not only do you scare your opponent on the chessboard, but you don't stop hitting your opponent verbally.

His opponent was bored and said, "I said that if you play chess, you can play chess, don't keep muttering about it." It's coming, it's coming, I'm still afraid that you won't make it. ”

The soldier ignored it, still muttering as he went.

Hu Wei watched from the side, and he didn't pay much attention to the envoy, and slowly he noticed the movements of the muttering soldier. His chess pieces are obviously less than the opponent's, but he is always aggressive, and his broken mouth is constantly intimidating the opponent, which makes the opponent mess up for a while, and finally loses that game. ...,

"Brother Hu Wei, where did you go, people are looking for you everywhere. Ouyang Shuixian finally found Hu Wei, pouting and complaining.

"Watching people play chess over there. Are you done eating?" said with a smile.

"It's long gone. Do you want to play chess, do you want Rou'er to accompany you in the next game?" Ouyang Shuixian was afraid of worrying about good things and thinking about the battle, and wanted to make it easier for him.

Hu Wei smiled: "Playing chess is good, but not now." Rou'er, you go and help me find the generals from all walks of life, I have something to say. ”

Ouyang Shuixian was stunned for a moment, and said in surprise: "Brother Hu Wei, have you thought of a way to break the enemy?"

"Sort of. Hu Wei recalled the game of chess he had just seen and nodded.

As soon as the generals of the various armies returned from the meeting, they didn't have a good rest after eating, so they asked Hu Wei to call back the military tent. They didn't know what was going on, and they didn't even dare to delay a step when they received the order, so they ran in a hurry.

Hu Wei had already arrived at the military tent before the generals, and he was drinking tea. Ouyang Shuixian also changed back into his military uniform and sat beside Hu Wei and waited.

"Young marshal, do you already have a plan to break the enemy? Lin Zhengfeng also hurried to arrive. Because he was too tired from traveling for days, he had already gone to bed early after eating, and he would get up from bed.

"Sit down first. Hu Wei smiled faintly.

Lin Zhengfeng looked at Hu Wei's confident look, and his heart suddenly felt a lot more relieved. Although he went to bed early, where could he sleep? In a dangerous situation, you really have to sleep with one eye open.

Seeing that all the people had arrived, Hu Wei then spoke: "I have decided to march to Jincheng early tomorrow morning. ”

"Ahh

The tent suddenly became noisy, and everyone was buzzing and talking with the people around them.

Hu Wei's words frightened many generals. Although I have always been prepared to fight, but this is not too urgent, I will fight tomorrow, so how to fight.

Hu Wei took a breath and said, "I already have a plan, everyone only needs to ask for what I say ......"

Hu Wei told his plan. With the deepening of Hu Wei's plan, the faces of the generals became more and more ugly. Many of the generals' clothes were already soaked with sweat, and they didn't know whether they were nervous or scared.

"Young marshal, isn't this too dangerous? Lin Zhengfeng didn't express his opinion until he listened to all of Hu Wei's plans.

Hu Wei agreed: "The whole plan is quite dangerous, but this is our only way, I believe that everyone here will not be willing to come here so hard, just pat your ass and leave." War is a gamble, and as long as we cooperate with each other tacitly, our chances of victory are still very high. ”

Hu Wei has too many bold words, and Hu Wei is very pragmatic to say what he thinks in his heart. All of you here are experienced generals, and even if you don't say it, they can analyze the situation on their own. Sitting in the same boat at home is more beneficial to admit than to conceal.

The tent was quiet, and the generals on the side of the Immortal Bird Legion had already agreed to Hu Wei's plan in their hearts. Hu Wei is the supreme commander of the Immortal Bird Legion, he has already decided to do this, and the people below only need to carry it out further.

More eyes in the field turned to Lin Zhengfeng's hand, he was the emperor of Anrong. The settlement army participated in the plan, and he had to nod.

Lin Zhengfeng was really embarrassed, he knew that he had to make a decision, and this decision was related to the fate of Anrong Yiguo. It's not that he's timid, but that Hu Wei's plan has many uncertain factors.

As Hu Wei said, they don't seem to have any more options. has already arrived here, and retreated, not to mention that Hu Wei is unwilling, and Lin Zhengfeng is not reconciled.

Lin Zhengfeng looked at the generals on his side with his eyes, and from their eyes, he saw panic, enthusiasm, and expectation...... The owner of each pair of eyes, the feeling revealed is quite complicated. Some people want to fight, some people are afraid to fight, some people don't care if you fight or not, there are not many people, but there are many ideas. ...,

Looking at the generals of the Immortal Bird Legion, they sat at the table, and the look in their eyes was almost identical, that was the commander who followed them. There is really no comparison between people and people.

A soldier bears a nest of bears. Lin Zhengfeng also knew that the generals under his command were not as good as Hu Wei, and it was not all their fault, and he also had a great responsibility in this regard. If he can be as bold as Hu Wei, and always bring them the honor of victory and the confidence of victory like Hu Wei, they will also be good.

Lin Zhengfeng took a sharp breath and said, "Okay, just do it." ”

Zhao Erte felt inexplicably irritable, and after only sleeping for more than an hour, he couldn't sleep at all.

Is it because Zhao Bao led the troops out, and there has been no news until now?

Zhao Erte felt that it should be because of this incident, but it didn't seem to be all. What is the reason for this?

Zhao Erte vaguely felt that something would happen, but he couldn't think of what would happen. Peasant uprising? Zhao Erte did not feel that those peasants were any threat, but now there were more than 500,000 infantry troops in Jincheng, and the small peasants were nothing.

Zhao Erte thought again, and when he came back to his senses, it was already dawn.

"陛xià. The chamberlain hurried over, with a happy look on his face, as if something good had happened.

"What's the matter. Zhao Erte asked. He didn't like it to happen early in the morning, because that meant he would be annoyed for the rest of the day.

When he was not the emperor, Zhao Erte dreamed of the emperor, so he could sit on the emperor's seat, and he killed his father without sacrificing.

But after becoming the emperor, Zhao Erte found that being an emperor was not so happy. We have to deal with so many large and small state affairs every day, and if we don't handle this well, there will be problems here or there.

And those peasants too, didn't it just rain a few times and open a few openings in the river, and it wasn't caused by him, those peasants actually engaged in some kind of uprising and wanted to turn him back.

Now it's okay, they're all slaughtered, and see what else you have to make a noise about.

Zhao Erte rubbed his dry eyes, and he suddenly realized that slaughtering the rebels was also a kind of fun. That kind of bloody scene can ignite his enthusiasm that has cooled down for a long time.

The chamberlain suddenly felt a chill inexplicably, and hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, there is already news from the prince, and the prince has just sent someone to send a message back, saying that he is already on the way back, and he will be able to return to the palace tomorrow at most." ”

"Hmm. ”

Under the sun, 20,000 soldiers in heavy armor marched along the official road. It was supposed to be a very majestic team, but it was sparsely walked, giving people a very unenergetic look.

"This kind of armor is good, but it's too heavy and inconvenient. Hu complained a few words unhappily. He put on this full set of armor, all made of fine copper, the sun shines brightly, very beautiful, but all add up to more than fifty pounds, if he is not on a horse, he can't walk ten miles in this body, Hu Wei has to climb on the ground.

"Brother Hu Wei is very majestic. Ouyang Shuixian said with a smile. Because there were no female soldiers in the Chihe army, Ouyang Shuixian could only change into men's armor, which was a bit too big for her.

"Young Marshal, we are about to arrive in Jincheng. There was a hint of excitement and a hint of nervousness in the soldier's voice. This time, they're playing with fire. 20,000 soldiers robbed the imperial city, and the pressure was great.

"Well, the game is about to begin, let the brethren be lazy, be vigilant, and listen to me. ”

Laziness is for others to see, and vigilance is what really needs to be done.

The 20,000 Immortal Bird Legion soldiers, who were replaced with the equipment of the heavy cavalry, are now temporarily turned into Chihe soldiers. Hu Wei wants to use this cavalry to give Zhao Erte a sudden blow, if he takes the imperial city in one fell swoop, it is naturally the most reasonable, if he can't succeed, then stir Zhao Erte a chicken and dog restless, so that the team behind can seize the opportunity. ...,

Hu Wei's time is calculated very accurately, and when the sun has just set in Jincheng, the city gate is about to close.

Seeing that the south gate of the former Jincheng was getting bigger and bigger in his sight, Ouyang Narcissus suddenly felt a little nervous. She had been by Hu Wei's side for some years, but she had never tried this method of putting 20,000 troops among more than 500,000 enemies. If there's anything wrong, they'll ......

"Woo Woo ......"

A burst of barking pulled back Ouyang Shuixian's thoughts, and a huge Chihe dog by the city gate really barked at them, grinning and wanting to pounce on this side, and several city gate soldiers pulled it desperately, so as not to let it pounce.

"Did the dog sense something? Ouyang Narcissus couldn't help but worry. She had raised small animals before, and knew that animals were more spiritual than humans, and could sense danger earlier than humans.

"It's noisy. ”

Ouyang Shuixian was worried, so he listened to Hu Wei on the side spit out a sentence, and then drew his bow is an arrow. The arrow went through the eye of the pond dog, and the world slowed to silence.

Hu Wei is not reckless in doing this, but according to intelligence analysis, Zhao Bao does not like dogs, and Hu Wei's arrow can invisibly tell others who he is.

Who dared to shoot the watchdog with arrows at the city gate, except for the prince Zhao Bao.

The door officials all startled Hu Wei, for fear that he would practice arrows by himself, so they all stood upright. I secretly thought in my heart that after the 20,000 heavy armored cavalry entered the city, nothing would happen.

Zhao Bao's 20,000 cavalry belonged to the establishment of the Praetorian Guard, and their camp was not outside the city but inside the city. But the palace is not guarded by them. No matter how much Zhao Erte spoiled Zhao Bao, he didn't dare to put his net worth and life in the hands of those boys.

With the training of the Immortal Bird Legion, there would be no problem riding a horse into the city, but Hu Wei didn't think so. Although he didn't know what the situation was like when these sons and soldiers were in Jincheng in the past, he knew that these sons would definitely not do anything good.

They came into the city to create chaos, so this would be a good rehearsal in advance, wouldn't it?

Such thoughts rose in Hu Wei's mind, and this Jincheng could be regarded as a bad luck. The cavalry is walking well, and suddenly there will be problems. Either they hit the vegetable stalls, or they made a mess of other people's shops, and there was even a local government garrison that let the soldiers bump into it.

What kind of soldier is this, it's a scourge. The law and order have been messed up, and no one has dared to come out and say a word. It wasn't until Hu Wei led the 20,000 people back to the camp that the streets quieted down.

What outsiders didn't see was that as soon as the 20,000 people returned to the camp, it was immediately different. One by one, they are murderous, where is there still the lazy look just now.
