Chapter 263: Cannibalistic Feast Kindness
In the Four Seas Inn, there is a lot of people.
In addition to the hundreds of people living in the original inn, there were nearly a thousand people under Zhang Shicheng's command who sneaked into Yangzhou City first. Due to the surprise and the fact that the Miao army in the city had to deal with the chaotic situation and was seriously scattered, this newly assembled army effortlessly broke through the blockade of the Miao army and routed hundreds of Miao troops outside the inn.
Now, except for the Four Seas Inn, the entire street is occupied by the Sea Sand Gang. Many of the shops and rooms were opened up, and they were put on a posture of being held at a distance from the ground. In addition, both ends of the street were blocked by temporarily removed debris. Such an obstacle is nothing at all, but in these extraordinary times, it can give people a sense of security that is extremely rare.
Zhao Yu was temporarily authorized by the helmsman of the Yuan to command the nearly 1,000 subordinates of the Haisha Gang and arrange many things in an orderly manner. Although he is not as handsome as Xu Da Chang Yuchun, it is still difficult to command this team to temporarily hold this street. In order to seek Yangzhou, Zhang Shicheng has been breaking up many military equipment and materials in the city for several years. Zhao Yukang was angry with others, and naturally all of them were activated, swords, guns, swords, halberds, soft and hard armor, and bows, crossbows and arrows, all of which were distributed, and everyone was organized into several teams, each guarding the critical pass.
If it was an ordinary season, an outsider like him would naturally not be able to command these elites selected from Zhang Shicheng's army. However, after getting the approval of the Yuan Helmsman, he killed the principals in the secret strongholds everywhere with lightning speed, and his iron-blooded posture was full of rigidity, and the Yuan Helmsman was behind his back, and the order was forbidden, and no one dared to question it at all.
In the evening, after commanding everyone to repel several Miao army attacks, taking advantage of the rare gap, the Haisha gang, who had been tired from the battle for a long time, seized the time to rest, recover their strength, and beware of the fierce night attack that might occur after nightfall.
Zhao Yu also retreated from the forefront of the front, returned to the Four Seas Inn as a temporary rear, and met the Yuan chief helmsman who was excited.
At this time, the helmsman of Yuan was full of excitement about taking Yangzhou City in one fell swoop, and he didn't realize how much trouble he had caused to King Cheng with his nonsense. He saw Zhao Yu walk into the inn, put on a posture of a corporal of Lixian, walked two steps to meet him, and asked with a smile: "Brother Bai has been fighting for a day, and he is still in good spirits, and he is really a natural general." This time, I will promote you with my wisdom and wisdom, and I will be able to take Yangzhou City in one fell swoop. ”
Zhao Yu should have said yes, took the tea handed by Zhao Min and drank it bitterly, and then muttered: "Although we have opened up some situations now, the situation is still not optimistic. According to my inference, Yang Wanzhi must have ordered the Miao army to attack here at night, hoping to quickly resolve the chaos in the city. The Miao army is tens of thousands of troops, nearly 100 times larger than ours, and although we cannot use all of them due to the situation, the number of enemies we have to face directly is still not to be underestimated. The power in our hands is still too small, and we will have to come up with another trick to withstand the initial onslaught. ”
Chief Helmsman Yuan nodded and said, "I've been thinking about this question, and now I have an idea. The brothers in front threw their heads and spilled their blood, sparing their lives for the great cause of King Cheng, but I couldn't sit in the rear and enjoy it. So I'm going to lead a group of highly skilled brothers, taking advantage of the fact that the Miao army has not yet been dispatched, go to the city gate to rush and kill for a while, if you can capture and kill Yang Wan in one fell swoop, it is naturally the best, if not, you can also deter the Miao army, so that they dare not move lightly!"
As soon as these words came out, the faces of the people of the Haisha Gang around the helmsman of Yuan couldn't help but change drastically. This movement made by this ancestor now had already made them extremely embarrassed, and they were terrified in their hearts, but they did not expect that such a terrifying idea would come up with after frowning and thinking for a long time here! Could he think that the tens of thousands of Miao troops outside the city were really paper-paste? If Yang Wanzhi's Miao army could really deal with it so simply, why did it wreak havoc on Lianghuai and defeat King Cheng's army several times!
Before they had time to think about it, everyone hurriedly spoke out to dissuade them.
Zhao Yu also waved his hand and said: "For the major affairs of the country, the soldiers must have to perform their duties, and they must not be deployed chaotically." Brother Yuan, you are the commander of our side, and your mission is to sit in the center and command the overall situation, so how can you be in danger! You are the banner that stands tall in our army, and you can only cheer up the soldiers in the rear, and we will take responsibility for the fight and retreat from the enemy. When I say this, it's not that I can't believe in Brother Yuan's skills, it's just that King Cheng attaches great importance to major matters, and he can't tolerate the slightest bias. Therefore, Brother Yuan's clever plan, unless it is absolutely necessary, we had better not use it. ”
Chief Helmsman Yuan has now obeyed Zhao Yuyan's plan, and when he heard that he also opposed his plan, he couldn't help but be a little interested, and sighed: "This is really embarrassing, seeing my brothers fighting bloodily but I have nothing to do, I am really anxious." But for the sake of King Cheng's great cause, I can only reluctantly make it difficult for the time being, and allow Yang Wanzhi to live a few more days. However, if I don't make a move, will Brother Bai still have a good plan to survive tonight's offensive?"
Zhao Yu muttered: "Let's take advantage of the fact that the Miao army has not yet gathered enough strength to gather as many helpers as possible." Although these hundreds of fellow Jianghu people in the inn are unwarranted, the current situation is that it is bound to be difficult to live alone without us, so it is necessary to rely on Brother Yuan to mobilize and organize these fellow Jianghu Daoists as a help. In addition, there are many high-ranking and wealthy people in the city, and there are many powerful servants in the palace, if we can co-opt them, we will definitely increase our strength several times. These things should be done sooner rather than later, and if you seize some opportunities as soon as possible, you will be able to hold more chances to win!"
While listening, Chief Helmsman Yuan nodded his head and said, "More people are easier to do, this is the real truth." Brother Bai reminded me, not to mention whether these manpower are suitable or not, as long as the momentum is built, it is enough to give Miao Jun a headache. Let's stay up until King Cheng's army arrives, why worry about not succeeding! Without further ado, let's go our separate ways, and I'll go and persuade those fellow Jianghu people, and bother Brother Bai to go to those big families to borrow some manpower. ”
Zhao Yu bowed his hand to the helmsman of Yuan, beckoned to Zhao Min, and took several Haisha gangsters to the backyard of the inn.
At this time, many people from the rivers and lakes had gathered in the front hall of the inn, and there were more than 100 Haisha gangs defending the backyard, and arrows thrown by the Miao army from outside still came in from time to time.
Tong Baitao and Zhao Yu had already had a tacit understanding, and when they saw him acting, they had already waited behind a house.
Zhao Yu waved his hand and retreated from several Haisha gangsters behind him, pulled Tong Baitao to a secret place, and said in a low voice: "Master Tong, my subordinates have begun to open up a sneaking path, and you will gather the people in the middle of nowhere without a trace, and someone will come to answer later, and you will be able to transfer you out of this dangerous place in time." After leaving here, find a secluded place to hide, and find an opportunity, and they will send you out of the city safe and sound. ”
Regarding his family name, Tong Baitao carefully wrote down the joint code given by Zhao Yu, and then said without worrying: "The matter here is so violent, Miao Jun has a fierce surname, I am afraid that it will not be easy to get through." There are many friends in this inn ......"
"It's hard to survive without a miracle. Zhao Yu didn't hide it, and said directly.
He saw Tong Baitao's face change drastically, a wry smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he said in a deep voice: "Now Master Tong must be thinking that I am acting so viciously, pushing many irrelevant people to death with one hand, and I am a heinous and heinous big devil." ”
Tong Baitao was silent, but his body opened slightly sideways, as if he wanted to distance himself from Zhao Yu, and his thoughts in his heart had been fully revealed.
Zhao Yu didn't wait for him to answer, and continued: "Not only is it extremely difficult for these people in the inn to have a good result, but after tonight, I am afraid that the innocent people of Hecheng will be killed and injured. Well, I won't say anything more to you. You have to remember what I just said. At this point, I don't need to explain anything. Let's say goodbye here, see you in the rivers and lakes later, right and wrong, and then carefully distinguish between right and wrong. ”
With that, he and Zhao Min hurried in the other direction.
Tong Baitao stood in place, watching Zhao Yu drift away, his face changing. For this demon who is much younger than himself, he can't see through it anymore. If he is said to be merciful, this person single-handedly promoted the Yangzhou military disaster, but I am afraid that tens of thousands of people will die in vain because of him. If this person is said to be vicious, he is true to his word, and he takes great pains to prepare a way for himself to live. With so many contradictions and conflicts, it is really elusive.
Zhao Min followed behind Zhao Yu, and when he was far away, he suddenly began to whisper: "Are you planning to use the power of this Tong master to intervene in Shandong? If he is no longer useful, will you go to such great lengths to rescue him?"
When Zhao Yu heard this question, his pace slowed down, and he was silent for a long time before he said: "Inappropriate questions, why do you ask these questions." ”
Zhao Min didn't let go of this question, and continued: "I think you are terrible, Zhao Yu, how did you become like this? The city is full of human lives! Such a heavy price, is it worth it to exchange Yang Wanzhi's surname for a life? How can you be so ruthless, how can you be so bold to make such an exchange?"
Zhao Yu paused, turned his head to look at Zhao Min, and said in a deep voice: "So, Minmin, you can only play some small tricks." I'm in Yangzhou, and what I see is the whole world! It's not Yang Wanzhi who I'm killing, it's the hundred-year-old national glory of your Mengyuan Imperial Court! It's the nightmare spell that has plagued my Shenzhou for thousands of years!"
"Fighting for the world is an extremely vicious gamble, and if you can get on the field, which one is not an arrogant and villain who does not recognize his six relatives? This is not destined to be a luxurious feast of pleasure and harmony, and the only thing that can be eaten is the flesh and blood of all the people on the seat! People eat people, and when they eat at the end, they will be a ninety-five supreme! When we go on the road, we are alone, and it doesn't matter if our appetite is good or bad. Up to now, I still have hundreds of thousands of lives on my shoulders and hundreds of thousands of lives in northern Anhui, and there is no room for picky eating! No matter how good my skin is, no matter how good my clothes are, I am a man-eating demon. ”
Zhao Yu closed his eyes and took a deep breath, and said in an imperceptible tone: "There is still a trace of kindness, you can help me keep it well." (To be continued.) )
