Chapter 1039: Crisis in the City
The three of them discussed the situation in the hut, this conversation was a night, and at dawn the next day, the three finally reached a consensus, the two Wushuang brothers went to resist the prince's counterattack, and Yang Luochen went to the east to lead the troops to resist the army of the second prince and young master.
Yang Luochen's conversation with the two of them was quite speculative, and the previous misunderstandings were forgotten, and the two of them didn't want to ask Yang Luochen's secret, and Yang Luochen naturally didn't want to inquire about the details of Wushuang, and the three of them had acquiesced to this state.
"The two seniors, the prince will be handed over to the two, according to the implementation of tonight's discussion, if there is any change, feel free to contact by letter"
Wushuang and the two of them clasped their fists and said in unison: "Marshal, rest assured, our two brothers will definitely obey the military order."
Yang Luochen waved his hand and said: "It's not on the battlefield now, just call me Chentian, the two of you will leave immediately, and I will also hurry to Maocheng to assist the Fourth Highness."
The two of them were ordered to leave, Yang Luochen finally breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, Mu Ye said in Zhihai: "Boy, don't be stunned, hurry up, the three of you have been talking all night, although Lao Tzu doesn't know how to fight, but what you said does make sense, so it seems that it is really as you said, in less than two years, it will be over here."
Yang Luochen got up and slowly replied to Mu Ye: "I hope so, as long as there is nothing wrong with the second prince's side, the unification of this wind is only a problem in the world." The two of them are really difficult generals, their knowledge is not below me, their experience is even more sophisticated, and they don't know how to make it, what are they looking for me to do, it's a big deal to make a few more."
Mu Ye scolded with a smile: "You kid thinks that alchemy, it is still in batches, alchemy still needs materials, the bodies of the two of them are not simple, and the armor on their bodies is also a treasure, I'm afraid that Taiming has also found such materials." Don't care about these things, hurry up and do something for Lao Tzu, and then hurry up to cultivate, do you want Lao Tzu to be stuck here all the time?"
Yang Luochen hurriedly left the bamboo forest and found Cai Min, this time, Yang Luochen decided to let Cai Min go with Wushuang, Cai Min did not dare to disobey, took the military order to catch up with Wushuang's footsteps, and went to the northern battlefield as soon as he heard it.
Yang Luochen also found a fast horse, galloped towards the east, and went straight to Maocheng, where the young master Haoyang is now, where the 200,000 army is stationed, Yang Luochen first has to go to understand the specific situation.
Hurry up and get the whip, day and night, Yang Luochen traveled for three days, came to the gale, Fang Licheng, here is not far from the city, and it can be reached in another day, Yang Luochen plans to rest for one night and then set off, but there is no rest at all in these three days, and the horses have changed several times.
At dusk, Yang Luochen came to Fang Licheng, and just as he was about to enter the city, Yang Luochen found the secret code of the Blood Shadow Guard at the gate of the city, and following the code, Yang Luochen led the horse to the door of a small inn.
Asking the shopkeeper to take care of the horses, Yang Luochen came to the door of the No. 1 room in Dizi, knocked lightly on the door, and a female voice came from inside, "Who?"
Yang Luochen said slowly: "It's me, open the door"
The door opened, Miao Ting poked her head out, pulled Yang Luochen in, and quickly closed the door. Yang Luochen asked in surprise, "Why are you here? Is something wrong?"
Miao Ting said with a bitter face: "Young master, the eldest sister asked me to wait for you, I'm afraid it's dangerous to take the city, when I left, the 50,000 army was attacking the city, not long ago, there was news from the front, and the city was surrounded by them."
Yang Luochen frowned slightly, and asked, "How long is enough food in the city?"
"Young master, there is enough food to eat for more than ten days. Only 20,000 people were left in Maocheng, and the remaining 180,000 people were distributed in the major cities along the east side, and they also encountered large-scale projects, and the second prince Shaoshi Yu directly sent 400,000 troops to come this time, and Xiongtian personally took command, and the previous information was just a disguise"
Yang Luochen really didn't understand, why Shao Shiyu was in a hurry to attack the city, could it be that seeing that the situation on the prince's side was not good, he was afraid that he would be destroyed by us, and he would not be able to protect himself, so he was pressed by the army. From this point of view, wouldn't it be better to go north and destroy the prince first, and then share the world twice.
Miao Ting saw that Yang Luochen was in a daze, and hurriedly asked: "Young master, the eldest sister asked me to wait for you here, just thinking that you must have passed from here, and asked you to save the eldest sister and the fourth highness, do you have any countermeasures?"
Yang Luochen thought for a while and asked, "Maocheng has been besieged for a few days?" I don't have a single soldier in my hand now, just the two of us, I can't save them."
When Miao Ting heard Yang Luochen's words, her face was full of anxiety, "Young master, I have been waiting for you for ten days, according to calculations, Maocheng has been besieged for seven days, if you don't hurry up, once there is no food in the city, I'm afraid something big will happen."
Yang Luochen also knows this, even if he doesn't delay those days in the city anymore, Yang Luochen can't reach the city before the siege, and after thinking about it, he still has to get soldiers and horses, otherwise there is no way.
"Do you have the map, show it to me."
Miao Ting hurriedly took out the map of the entire gale, and marked all the cities of the garrison in the east to Yang Luochen, and the local military deployment was also roughly marked.
Yang Luochen looked at the situation on the map, a little helpless, the 200,000 troops stationed in the east of Young Master Haoyang were almost trapped to death by the 400,000 of Young Master Yu, once any city was abandoned, the whole situation would be one-sided, no wonder Miao Xing and Young Master Haoyang were stubbornly guarding the city.
Yang Luochen is also at a loss in the face of this dead end, this situation, unless the young master Yu dies in the sky, he will definitely lose. Even if Yang Luochen had the ability to cut off the grain and grass of the young master, they would not retreat, because our food and grass were even more scarce than the other party.
After watching for a long time, Yang Luochen frowned, he really couldn't think of any way, he also thought about transferring a part of the army from the north to come, but the road was far away, and those troops were afraid that the east had already been lost, and the young master Haoyang had already been able to become a prisoner.
Miao Ting waited anxiously, Yang Luochen stared at the map carefully, and the room became unusually quiet.
"Knock Knock"
At this time, there was a knock on the door of the room, and Miao Ting came to the door of the room with an arrow and asked, "Who?"
"Miss, I'm a child, I'll bring you dinner"
Miao Ting said coldly: "Put the door, you go"
The shopkeeper could only do so, put down the meal, and left inexplicably.
Yang Luochen looked at Miao Ting's nervous expression, and asked in some surprise: "Why are you so nervous?
Miao Ting nodded, and after the shopkeeper left for a long time, Miao Ting pushed open the door, took the food, and closed it immediately.
"Young master, there are a few people with strong martial arts under Xiongtian, the eight of us have already fought with them, all of them are Heavenly Rank masters, we are invincible, and we dare not act rashly. It's just my martial arts, and my eldest sister asked me to wait for you here."
Yang Luochen didn't expect that Tianxiong would have a master under him to help, and asked, "How many people are there?"
Miao Ting was eating and was not polite, because he knew that Yang Luochen would not eat, and whispered: "No, the other party's strength is too strong, and the master will not let us take risks, so the master can live a few tricks with them, and his identity is as mysterious as Tianxiong."
Yang Luochen didn't ask any more questions, and continued to study the map to see how this dead end was broken, Miao Ting stopped talking while eating.
After watching for a long time, Yang Luochen still found nothing, and when he left the room, he asked the shopkeeper to open a room next door to live, so that he could take care of it.
The shopkeeper is also hospitable, maybe because of Yang Luochen's generous hands, he takes care of Yang Luochen meticulously, he is busy before and after, he is preparing to eat, and boiling bath water.
Yang Luochen is very strange, even if he has money, he will not be the master to serve, and the other guests don't pay the same way, but the shopkeeper revolves around him.
Yang Luochen saw that he was very diligent, so he gave him a tip of five taels, and the second child of the store knelt down gratefully, "Thank you, uncle, thank you, this time my life was saved"
Yang Luochen asked puzzledly: "I said Xiao Er, only five taels of silver can save your little life?"
The shopkeeper said with a smile: "Uncle, don't you know? The army of the second prince is about to fight, and the fourth highness is trapped in Maocheng, which is very close to Maocheng, if Maocheng is broken, we will be in danger here."
"Recently, the business in the store has been poor, and the shopkeeper wants to run away, saying that I want to make more money, and the tips are all mine, I have the uncle's five taels, plus the previous ones, enough for me to go to Dongcang, isn't this little life saved"
Yang Luochen also knew in his heart that the best way for them to face the war was to run away and stay away from the war-torn place, as for the wind, they didn't care who was the emperor, as long as they could eat enough and dress warmly.
Although Yang Luochen understood, he couldn't help but ask: "The Fourth Highness has given you so many years of stable life, and you are under siege at this time, you don't care at all, didn't you think that the Fourth Highness is gone, and your previous life will be gone?"
The shopkeeper said helplessly: "This uncle, it's not that the little one is not grateful for the kindness of the Fourth Highness, if it weren't for the wisdom of the Fourth Highness, how could the little one have such a day now." It's just a small article, and neither can Wu. If the little one has martial arts, he will definitely go to rescue the Four Highnesses."
"Not long ago, there were rumors on the rivers and lakes that someone held a dragon rescue meeting to gather the righteous people of the rivers and lakes all over the world to rescue the four highnesses, and it is said that hundreds of people with strong martial arts have been summoned to go to the city. The little ones also hope that they can rescue the Four Highnesses, so that we can have a good life"
Yang Luochen was stunned for a moment, he forgot that there were still people in the rivers and lakes, and hurriedly asked, "Do you know where this dragon rescue meeting is held?"
The shopkeeper shook his head, "Uncle, the little one doesn't know, the little one also listened to the guests in the store, if the uncle wants to go, you can inquire in the city."
Yang Luochen sent away the shopkeeper, found Miao Ting, and asked about the Dragon Saving Club, Miao Ting told Yang Luochen in detail, this is a rescue team spontaneously organized by people in the rivers and lakes, and it has already set off.
More than 500 people were gathered, and they arrived at Maocheng, but not only did they act recklessly, but the 50,000 troops they faced faced would hardly have a chance to break through even if they were strong in martial arts, and they could only harass around Maocheng.
It's a pity that the more than 500 people were scattered by the masters under Xiongtian, more than 100 people died on the edge of the city, and the Dragon Saving Society also disappeared, but there are still many people with lofty ideals who come to look for it, and now most of the Jianghu people in Fang Licheng are coming for the Dragon Saving Society.
Yang Luochen originally wanted to find them, it would be good if he could summon five thousand, but he overestimated the discipline and organizational ability of these Jianghu people, and this road had to be abandoned.
Miao Ting returned to the room, she didn't sleep all night, Yang Luochen was still checking the map late at night, thinking of various countermeasures in his head, and now the only problem is that there is no one, which Yang Luochen has a headache.
Mu Ye said in Zhihai: "Boy, in the eyes of Lao Tzu, you might as well let go of the gun and kill the past, with your current strength, there is no problem in killing a hole, if there is any master, and Lao Tzu is in you, don't be afraid, it's a big deal that you lie down for a few months, otherwise the little prince will be beheaded, and Tai Ming may find you trouble."
Yang Luochen ignored Mu Ye's words at all, and kept thinking about where to find people, where to gather a team of people, as long as there was an army of five thousand, Yang Luochen could make this dead end alive.
Early the next morning, the shopkeeper came, prepared the washing water, breakfast, Yang Luochen meditated for a few hours, and his spirit recovered a lot.
Yang Luochen really didn't have any broken silver on him, so he didn't tip the shopkeeper anymore, but just said casually: "Shopkeeper, what are you going to do in Dongcang? What if the army hits there, don't you want to run far?"
The shopkeeper also said very honestly: "Uncle, you don't know, as long as I get to Dongcang, I will be safe, Dongcang has my distant cousin here, I must be fine"
