V4.Chapter 49 (2/2)
Shen zangfeng said to himself, ”what is the most likely one?”
”I think both are possible.” Shangguan 11 said, ”it's very easy to find out that the army is lying in wait for the chance of sneaking attack in the Wei Dynasty. At that time, when the East Hu army stopped, the royal forest army and us here in Yanzhou surrounded, and the soldiers were in trouble! It's because they may only have a small number of people lurking down, for one thing, it's easy to hide. For another, even if they are found with little loss, they're lucky or even able to escape. For another, they're less, they're easy to move, and they can even cover their faces and other features that are easy to expose their identities as soldiers. In turn, they can detect our movements!
”And they also hid a large number of supplies for the army to pass through. In these two days, because of the 100000 troops left by the Rong people who didn't attack the surrounding area of Yanzhou, our scouts couldn't rush through the surrounding area to report, and the pigeon letters sent out were shot down one after another, so that no feather could fly over the camp of the Rong people! ”
Shangguan 11 points to the map and says, ”so I suspect that there must be Rong people in these places where Zhu Bi circles two roads! Because this is the only way for Yanzhou, Donghu pigeon letter and messenger! Although the homing pigeons are domesticated, their wisdom is limited. Generally speaking, their flight route will not be changed. The Rong people are good at riding and shooting, but also domesticate hawks and falcons, and naturally catch homing pigeons. In addition, guard the key roads and kill the messenger. Oh, and here, surrounded by three, are the beacon. So cut off the means of warning ahead, the Rong people who infiltrated the heart of the great Wei Dynasty can seize the city as this time, with the potential that the thunder can't cover their ears. Otherwise, the Liu family should have heard the warning for a long time, how could Yanzhou almost fall into the hands of the soldiers? ”
…… In fact, the situation in Yanzhou was more dangerous than that in the capital.
Yanzhou is not as lucky as the capital. Before Rongren arrived at the city, they were found and sent to the city in time to report the letter. The grand master who presided over the government affairs thought it was better to be steady. He would rather find an excuse for the sudden closure of the four gates later, and then close it first. This is equivalent to saving the whole city.
On that day, when the army suddenly appeared outside the city of Yanzhou, several of the chief officers of Yanzhou were checking the official documents in the general's office, and there were only soldiers and low-ranking officers at the gate of the city. However, the time when the soldiers arrived was almost the same as the time when the cavalry in the city practiced. Therefore, the soldiers under the city gate thought that the earth shaking was due to the special efforts of cavalry training today.
They also joked and speculated with each other, whether Su Xiuming or Shen zangfeng personally urged them?
As a result, without a word of joking, we saw the flag blocking the sun in the distance. As we didn't receive any warning from Donghu, the first reaction of Chengtou and Chengmen was not to close the gate and send out a warning, but to ask each other if there was any reinforcements coming to Yanzhou to garrison recently?
Such a delay, when they saw clearly under the flag was a face with deep eyes and high nose and then hurriedly closed the door, it was too late.
By the time Su Xiuming and Shen zangfeng got the news and got on the horse without a red pen, 20000 Rong people had already entered the city, and more Rong people were still pushing in.
The two brothers and nephews fought with their relatives. Su Xiuming began to lose strength because of his age, and his arm was cut It was not easy to close the gate of the city, and then search out and kill the soldiers in the city. Several officers thought that they could not keep the soldiers in the city. They abandoned their subordinates in fear and asked to open other gates to escape. As a result, the whole city was in chaos, and even a few soldiers touched the warehouse where the baggage was stored and ignited a fire.
The loss was discovered in time, which did not cause great loss.
But in a day and night of bloody war, I dragged my tired body to appease the army and the people in the city So easy to stabilize the overall situation, the person in charge of the interrogation of Rong people left behind to make tongues reported a terrible news: this time Rong people made a big invasion, the goal is the capital!
Those who took the lead in invading the city of Yanzhou were the brave and fearless generation among the soldiers. The interrogators used all their means to pry open one's mouth. However, the interrogator broke his temper without confessing a few words. So there are so many to report.
However, most of the Rong people appeared in Yanzhou, but there was no news about the direction of Donghu. Moreover, since the defeat of seizing the city, the Rong people no longer attacked the city, but only set up camp outside the city, and set up villages. Obviously, it's to attack the surrounding area of Yanzhou instead of attacking it. But there are more rear army, mighty, to the direction of the capital!
This is enough to prove the last words of the captives.Because of the defeat of the Liu family, in order to resist the Rong people, the elite soldiers who can be drawn will be drawn out. The Shen family all supported 20000 Xiliang troops. Later, the soldiers withdrew suddenly. Donghu had to hurry up to repair the fortifications to prevent the soldiers from rolling up the soil and cleaning up the soldiers, so as to prevent the Xinzhou soldiers from happening again.
So now the troops in Yanzhou are only enough to defend the city. If you want to rush out of the city, you can't leave Yanzhou City and the baggage in the city - it will certainly pay a huge and even tragic price.
It's not enough. The key is that there are so many soldiers and more soldiers going to attack the imperial capital. What's the meaning of coming to the capital city if they rush out of Yanzhou at a heavy price?
Even if the last twenty thousand Xiliang troops in the capital city were added, they would not have much to look at in front of the more than one hundred and twenty thousand soldiers.
Especially after leaving Yanzhou, where did the baggage come from?
Previously, the royal family and other families restricted the supplies of Xiliang army in order to prevent the Shen family from making trouble!
Even if the capital of the emperor is surrounded this time, the leader of the 20000 Xiliang army will have a headache for the next food and grass If they are smart and fast and haven't been killed by the soldiers.
Now the problem is that the Rongren didn't mean to attack the city, and there is no danger in Yanzhou for the time being. But how can they help God and care for their little relatives in the capital???
