Chapter 35: The Offensive and Defensive Battle of Xiliang City (2)
Xiliang City spent two days of great peace, and that night, it was less than twelve hours before the agreed day of siege. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
In a mansion near the north city gate, there are more than a dozen people sitting in the inner hall.
"Lord Taishou still hasn't replied, it seems that Lord Taishou is not ready to beach this troubled water. An old man's voice sounded slowly.
"I'm afraid, I'm afraid that Ma Ben secretly tells Dong Zhuo, but it's over!"
"Brother will definitely not be like this, you can rest assured. "The person who swore to promise was one of the leaders of the rebel alliance, Ma Teng.
Although Demateng assured this, everyone present was still worried, this is a battle for wealth, how can it be so flawed.
"Don't be impatient, don't be impatient, there is no Lord Taishou, naturally there is another strong reinforcement. A middle-aged man smiled slightly, but it was one of the leaders of the rebel army, Han Sui.
As soon as Han Sui's words fell, a person silently approached the candlelight, and under the illumination of the candlelight, the figure took off his robe and revealed his face, which was a lieutenant under Dong Zhuo's headquarters. Cheng Yi.
Seeing that Dong Zhuojun's lieutenants were all involved, the morale of all the heroes in Xiliang suddenly improved a lot. If it weren't for the fact that it was becoming more and more difficult to survive under Dong Zhuo's oppression, no one would want to provoke Dong Zhuo, who had been in Xiliang for thirty years.
Cheng Yi, who was expressionless, said coldly: "At that time, as soon as there is a rebellion in the city defense army, I will lead the troops to suppress it, and then take advantage of the situation to seize the city gate together!"
"If you say so, then this action will be successful. "The person with the inspiring voice is the captain of the defense army of Naxi Liang City. Previously, the border guard corruption case also appeared in Haoqiang gathering to discuss how to deal with Ma Heng.
A thin black shadow sitting at the head of the captain also spoke: "The secret passage of the mansion occupied by Dong Zhuo's thieves has not yet been discovered, and your army can send people to enter from outside the city, if you can successfully drag Dong Zhuo that night." Big things can be expected. ”
Han Sui nodded, and said confidently: "Don't worry, since you can hold him back, you can naturally drag him twice." ”
With the conspiracy of everyone in the city, twenty miles outside the city, the rebel army was stationed.
"It's strange today, why haven't I seen the master of the Han League and the master of the Ma League for a day. ”
"The leader of the alliance has a lot of opportunities, what do you care about so much, come, continue to drink, this Xiliang may be the world of our Xiliang army." Hahahaha. ”
"Hahahaha, come, keep drinking. ”
While the wine was hot, one of the generals secretly handed a note to the guard beside him.
In just a moment, the rebel army camp secretly ran out with three cavalry and rode towards Xiliangcheng.
Yu Yu, the three horses stumbled one after another, and the man on the horse suddenly leaped away from the horse that was sitting down.
The cold light flashed, and the three of them fell to the ground one after another, seeing that they were not alive.
In the dark night, more than a dozen black-clothed figures were faintly revealed, and they were the black-clothed guards under Ma Heng.
The Night Guard neatly lifted the three corpses onto the horses, and then the rest of the men were in charge of disposing of the horses.
The leader pulled out a small piece of paper that had been dug out of the chest of one of the corpses and opened it to look at it.
The rebel army is different, the two alliance leaders and dozens of elites in the army who should be rotated today are nowhere to be seen.
With a slight smile, the paper ball was put away, and the black-clothed guards quickly cleaned up the scene and evacuated quickly.
Ma Heng once said to the black-clothed guards who were trained: Sometimes, you don't need to know who the traitor is, as long as you stay on the road of information transmission, and don't let go of a person or a bird.
But for a moment, there was no trace of a fight at the scene. No one can know that three people died here, and only many reptile corpses were left at the scene that were smoked to death by poisonous smoke, and this place is less than ten miles away from Xiliang City.
Twelve hours from now, not a single reptile will want to enter Xiliang City!
At the same time, the conspiracy in Xiliang City was also nearing its end.
"Since this is the case, we will act according to the plan, and then the old man will be waiting for the army to enter the city in this Xiliang City. ”
Seeing that the row of powerful representatives in Xiliang City on the opposite side got up and prepared to leave, Han Sui waved his hand unhurriedly, signaling everyone to be calm and not impatient, "You don't have to worry, just rest here today, so as not to be tired, and leave the rest of the matter to your subordinates." ”
It seems that Han Sui is not at ease with everyone, and is ready to take the Haoqiang hostages until tomorrow, no, it is now past the early morning, and when the incident comes tonight, I can't see the looks of everyone behind the dark shadow, but they all nodded honestly, and then left the house, and each asked the only person they brought in the courtyard to accompany them. After a few words of instruction, many people also took out tokens and gave them to their relatives, so that he could order his subordinates.
Seeing that the relatives were nodding and preparing to leave, Han Sui, who came out with him, said with a pleasant face, "Don't mistake your own lord, Dong Zhuo can protect you for a while, but he can't protect you for a lifetime!"
The relatives looked stunned, and after each saluted, they came out.
Ma Teng, who was still in the house, got up, picked up several jars of aged wine from behind him, personally put a large bowl in front of each seat, poured in the good wine, and after a long night, it seemed that he was ready to get drunk with the heroes.
As the Haoqiang entered the house one by one, only Cheng Yi and the captain of the city defense army did not come in, but prepared to leave, these two could not help but show up, the two left side by side, and when they parted from the door, Cheng Yi smiled gloomily at the captain of the city defense army, "Your Excellency should do it yourself, don't destroy your future." ”
After getting into their respective carriages, the lieutenants took off their black robes, revealing sweat on their faces, and hurriedly wiped them again.
The sun rose soon the next day, and the city of Xiliang was quite peaceful. There were also more pedestrians on the road, although there were rebels dozens of miles outside the city, but there was nothing to do for two months, and the ordinary people of Xiliang City had to start working for a living. Except that you can't go out of the city, it's no different from the past.
On the north city gate, Li Ru frowned and looked at the rebel camp in the distance. It's too quiet, it's too quiet, I always feel that something is wrong.
Noon soon came, and the weather was also gloomy today, with a light rain in the morning.
Li Ru, who was constantly patrolling everywhere, gritted his teeth and got into the carriage and headed towards Dong Zhuo's mansion.
There was no need to report, Li Ru entered all the way inside, and with the footsteps of Li Ru stepping into the inner hall, Dong Zhuo hurriedly asked the beautiful concubine beside him to serve him and dress.
About Li Ru walked into the study, Dong Zhuo also happened to come to the study neatly dressed.
"Why is Wen You so anxious. Dong Zhuo burst into a hearty laugh.
Li Ru hurriedly saluted, "Lord, the rebel army must be deceitful!"
Sitting down on the Taishi chair, Dong Zhuo paused. Then he smiled slightly, with a light and breezy expression.
"The nails that his subordinates are ambushing in Haoqiang have not replied for a day, and it stands to reason that they should be replied every day. And, no, some people have the wrong eyes, they seem to be respectful, and their eyes are murderous. ”
Dong Zhuo laughed, "Wen You, this Xiliang City seems to be respectful, but in fact, there are still fewer people who imply murder? If there is any change, there will naturally be someone in the rebel army to report the news." Wen You is a little fussed. ”
Li Ru hurriedly shook his head, and before he could speak, Dong Zhuo waved his hand, "Since Wen You has doubts and thinks that those heroes are suspicious, then let's arrest which suspicious heroes." "Dong Zhuo's actions have always been so domineering, but he can often hit the opponent's vital point.
Li Ru smiled, but he was too cautious, this Xiliang City is the world of our Xiliang Army, and then asked quietly: "City Defense Army?"
Dong Zhuo groaned slightly, "Send five thousand soldiers and horses from the headquarters to be stationed together, and change the guard together." Then, send 5,000 soldiers and horses to surround the Taishou Mansion, and the Taishou Mansion will not be allowed to enter and exit for the time being, and then go to make amends to the Taishou. ”
Li Ru nodded again and again, and then whispered a few words in Dong Zhuo's ear, why not just lead you into the urn!
After the secret talk, Li Ru saluted and left. Dong Zhuo didn't go back to continue to live with his concubine, but went to the martial arts arena to prepare for this daily practice.
