Chapter 97 Ge Rong's Melancholy

Taking Yecheng as the center and stretching for [-] miles to the north of Zhanghe River, there are all the camps of Ge Rongjun, which looks like a mad dragon swallowing the world.And Yecheng is the dragon ball in the dragon's mouth.

However, even if the giant dragon opened its mouth and bit the "Dragon Ball" fiercely, it did not cause any damage to it.Li Shen, who was doing nothing under Yuan Hao's hands and was in a dilemma, led the defeated army back to Yecheng for a short rest, but instead struck hard!
He took advantage of Ge Rongjun's weak connections, slow transmission of military orders, and inability to attack in unison. He often organized elite raids on enemy camps late at night.Li Shen focused on attacking Ge Rongjun who was guarding the Zhanghe ferry, and a fire burned the grain and grass transported by water.

The morale of the defenders in Yecheng was greatly boosted, and they desperately resisted the siege of Ge Rong's army during the day.After one operation, Ge Rong had to order to temporarily give up control of the Zhanghe ferry.For a while, the communication between Yecheng and the outside world became clear again.

However, Li Shen and Feng Longzhi, who guarded Yecheng, were not careless. They sent envoys to Luoyang for help, hoping that Yuan Ziyou could send reinforcements to defeat Ge Rong.

In the evening of that day, Ge Rong, who had failed in the siege of the city, drank the wine again. After only a few sips, he overturned the table and called his cronies to inquire about the countermeasures.

"Luo Sheng, Luo Sheng, come here, the widow asks you something."

Ge Rong waved to the young man who had just entered the camp.Ge Rong had already "founded the country" and set the name of the country as Qi. Although his claim to be a widow is a bit ridiculous, he is also self-contained, and the army also calls him His Majesty.

This young man named "Luosheng" is Yuwen Luosheng. Although his skin is dark and he is not as handsome as Liu Yishou, he looks imposing and his eyes are bright. He can be spotted in the crowd at a glance. , is by no means an idler.

"Your Majesty, you are drunk."

Yuwen Luosheng said calmly, he was most afraid that Ge Rong would go crazy with alcohol, because this person's wine taste is very bad.

"Luo Sheng, there is a general in our army named Dugu Xin. I heard that he looks like a fish and a wild goose. He is called Dugu Lang. Call him and let me have a look."

Ge Rong breathed out the alcohol and said.

Yuwen Luosheng didn't catch his breath, and almost fainted.Is stepping on a horse, sinking a fish and falling a wild goose used in this kind of occasion?He laughed in his heart at Ge Rong's ignorance, but he said softly, "Dugu Xin is now leading troops in the Zhongshan area, not in Yecheng."

Zhongshan was the area around Baoding, Hebei Province in Liu Yishou's time. It was close to Youzhou, and it was more than 600 miles away from Yecheng, which was indeed not close.

"It's very disappointing. I still want to see who is more beautiful, Dugu Lang or my concubine."

Ge Rong waved his hands in disappointment, suddenly remembered something, and asked Yuwen Luosheng suspiciously: "Didn't Dugu Xin join the widow? Why hasn't the widow seen him?"

Not only have you never seen Dugu Xin, you have never seen many people in the army.

Yuwen Luosheng didn't know what to say about Ge Rong, so he hurriedly called himself here to ask Dugu Xin about it?As Duguxin's fellow villagers, both of them are from Wuchuan Town, Yuwen Luosheng understands what tricks Duguxin is playing.

Nominally subordinate to Ge Rong, but in fact he doesn't care about you at all!
Duguxin is playing by himself, trying to avoid conflict with Ge Rong's army.If Ge Rong has any summons, then reply: I am busy, I understand, I will be there later, there are some aristocratic families who cannot leave without paying their taxes, I will come soon and so on.

Ge Rong has too many people under his command, and he himself is not very good at managing, so he will soon forget this non-existent Dugu letter.

In short, Dugu Xin is a ruthless pigeon.Yuwen Luosheng also didn't understand why Ge Rong suddenly remembered this.

"Your Majesty is here today to inquire about Dugu Xin?"

Yuwen Luosheng was in a state of desperation for attacking Yecheng, and he was very annoyed by Ge Rong calling him around like this, which was a trivial matter.Yuwen Luosheng has great prestige in the army, and he is known as "King Luosheng". He is also a man with a temper!

"Oh, that's not true. A few days ago I sent that who... oh, Han Xian went to Fangtou to look for food, did he reply?"

Ge Rong's sanity recovered a little bit, and he still remembered the business.

"The matter of food and grass has always been taken care of by Yang Min."

Yuwen Luosheng sighed helplessly.

"Oh, yes."

Ge Rong remembered this incident, and he continued to ask: "What about Yang Min, please call Yang Min here, and you can make up your mind."

"Your Majesty, Yang Min sneaked away a few days ago and disappeared."

Yuwen Luosheng simply didn't know what to say.

"Yang Min ran away? I want to recruit him as my son-in-law, why did he run away?"

Ge Rong looked puzzled, as if he didn't know about it at all.

It is precisely because you want to recruit him as your son-in-law that he has to run away.In order to prevent you from recruiting a son-in-law, he pierced a big hole with his tongue, which is ruthless enough.

"Your Majesty... let's talk about Fangtou."

Yuwen Luosheng felt tired.

"Hmm, what's the news over there?"

"There is no news, it seems that the situation is a bit weird."

Yuwen Luosheng frowned and said, generally speaking, those teams that go out to mop up will either do their own work, but they will send someone back to make some excuses.

For example, where there are too many young ladies, I am a groom every night and my legs are weak, and I can't walk, or there is too much food in a place, and I can't walk because my stomach is full, and so on.

Ge Rong is generally not too harsh.

Or, he just reluctantly came back with the loot, and then Ge Rong "rewarded" him again.

Few of them neither come back nor make excuses.Even the "ruthless pigeon" Dugu Xin would send someone over to say hello, but this time Han Xian didn't respond, it's really a bit strange.

"We will thoroughly investigate this matter at the end." Yuwen Luosheng said in a deep voice.

"Well, then I will leave this matter to you."

Ge Rong nodded slightly, his swollen eye bags and old body all showed that this hero who was born as a former general Huaishuo was in very poor physical condition and had long since lost his former bravery.

"By the way, what do you think about the attack on Yecheng?"

Ge Rong finally asked a key question. In Yuwen Luosheng's view, what he said before was all nonsense.

"The last general believes that after Li Shen led the defeated army to retreat into Yecheng, he greatly enriched the military strength of Yecheng. The forbidden army he led, which was itself the Wei State, now had a rest, and they attacked our army at night like ghosts and ghosts.

There is no way to capture Yecheng for the time being. "

Yuwen Luosheng said with some frustration.

Ge Rong is not a very hot-tempered person, and he is very tolerant to his subordinates, let alone his cronies.He didn't blame Yuwen Luosheng, but continued to ask: "What do you think we should do?"

"The reason why Yecheng is united and strong is because they know that Luoyang will definitely send troops to rescue.

As long as we defeat the reinforcements from the imperial court and display the heads and weapons of those people outside Ye City, then Feng Longzhi, Li Shen and others who are in charge of Ye City will naturally surrender without a fight. "

Yuwen Luosheng cupped his hands and said.

"Well, it makes sense, you step back."

Ge Rong waved his hand, noncommittal, indicating that Yuwen Luosheng could go.As for what the other party said, he neither accepted nor said no, and seemed to be hesitating.

……

Back in his camp, Yuwen Luosheng, who had been tormented by Ge Rong, was also depressed, and when he saw his younger brother Yuwentai, he didn't say a word.

"Third Brother, what did Marshal Ge say?"

Yu Wentai is not as eye-catching as his elder brother Yuwen Luosheng, who gives people a loyal and honest impression, but his dark skin is almost carved out of his family.

"Ge Rong is stupid, not like a master."

Yuwen Luosheng lowered his voice and only said these eight words.

In fact, Yu Wentai always wanted to say that Ge Rong seemed to be not very smart, and he was worried that the prestigious Yu Wen Luosheng would be unhappy, so he never expressed his opinion.Hearing what Yuwen Luosheng said today, Yuwentai also muttered to himself: "Indeed, he doesn't seem very smart. Which emperor would let his troops plunder wantonly?"

"Then third brother, what shall we do?"

Yu Wentai asked.

Yuwen Luosheng felt dizzy.

"It's really not a good way to lose troops in Yecheng. It just so happens that there is something wrong with Fangtou. I will tell Ge Rong in the near future to lead my troops to attack Fangtou, and then we can go back as late as possible.

Let's take action when Wei's troops and Ge Rong come to a conclusion. "

Obviously, Yuwen Luosheng, like Yang Min who didn't want to be Ge Rong's son-in-law, stuck his own tongue, and ran away in the end, didn't like Ge Rong at all.

Dugu Xin, who had been making soy sauce all the time, also had the same idea.

From the fact that he and Yu Wentai called Ge Rong by his first name in private, he knew from the bottom of his heart that he looked down on this reckless "rebel leader".

"Third brother, do you think there will be some hard stubble on Fangtou? Han Xian is not an idle person. Although he is not a descendant of Ge Rong, he is very brave in combat. If something happens to him, will we go and ask for help? Not good enough?"

Yu Wentai asked a little unconfidently, very worried about his brother's decision.

"It's okay, it's just Wei Guo's official army. You haven't seen it before, and the officers and soldiers under Yuan Hao's command are simply vulnerable."

Yuwen Luosheng said nonchalantly.

Yu Wentai looked at his elder brother, there was a sentence that hurt his brother's kindness, he didn't know whether he should say it or not.After some hesitation in my heart, I finally decided not to speak.

……

What Ge Rong didn't know was that a "monster" came to Fangtou City, and within a few days, he used tricks to overthrow Han Xian, and his own casualties were so low that they could be ignored!

That day, Han Xian led a large army, like a fish biting a hook, and robbed the food convoy in Fangtou City.As a result, because the delivery was delicious "cooked food" and dry food, the soldiers who were extremely hungry all competed with each other for big steamed cakes, and the formation was chaotic for a while.

At this time, as long as there is a surprise soldier, whether it is infantry or cavalry, attacking Han Xian's army, it can be easily defeated.

Han Xian saw this, so he ran away!Did not do the slightest stop and fluke.

It's a pity that Liu Yishou doesn't just want to be defeated, he wants to catch them all!
After Peng Le led a hundred elite cavalrymen to break up the formation of Han Xian's infantry, those panicked soldiers were defeated and fled, and they ran into and stomped on the soldiers standing on the pontoon bridge!

At this moment, the fleet lying in ambush on the west side of the pontoon, upstream of Qingshui, went down the current and shot and killed the fleeing enemy troops on the pontoon bridge with their crossbows from afar.This exacerbated the opponent's collapse.

In the end, the pontoon bridge was overwhelmed and broke, and many people fell into the water.Han Xianjun on the north bank of the pontoon fled in embarrassment, while the people on the south bank dropped their weapons and knelt down to surrender.

The battle ended miraculously.

In summary, it is to lure the opponent to make mistakes first, and lose the ability to form a formation to protect themselves.Secondly, the cavalry defeated the opponents, drove them to the river, trampled on each other in order to cross the river, and finally used the bed crossbow on the boat to force the opponents to be anxious, so that they had no time to calm down.

In the end, the morale collapsed and the fighting spirit was lost.

In the big lottery room of the main tower of Fangtou City, Liu Yishou held a tree branch, pointed to the huge map hanging on the wall and said, "It seems very simple, but in fact, we have made a lot of invisible efforts before.

Here, here, and here, and this line. "

"The routes for transporting food and grass are very precise. Every mile, we have set up observation posts and beacons at appropriate places.

As long as a beacon is lit in one place, other places will follow suit and send a signal.

We are not running after the wolf smoke, but attack from a fixed location.As soon as the people from Han Xian came out, they were under our surveillance and control. "

10 minutes on stage, ten years of work off stage, a lot of success or failure lies in the details.If Peng Le didn't attack in time, Han Xian's people would have more strength to fight after eating steamed cakes.

If the fleet did not attack in time, Han Xianjun, who had regained his breath, would form an formation on the edge of the clear water, alternately cover the crossing, and finally retreat calmly.

The ambush of Han Xianjun this time was actually a routine from the beginning.Who is in charge of the observation post, and who is lighting the beacon, all of which are supported by local people who are familiar with the terrain.

In other words, Han Xianjun only has Han Xian's eyes, while Liu Yishou's eyes are staring at them everywhere!And why do the local people spare no effort to help Liu Yishou and them fight?

Because wherever Ge Rong's army went, locusts crossed the border, burning, killing and looting.If the local people don't help Liu Yi guard them, is there still a way to survive?
These are the wars behind the wars, the stories behind the stories.

"The autumn harvest is over. I suggest that you can recruit more people here to strengthen the defense of Fangtou City. Cut down all the surrounding trees and chop them into firewood for the winter. Don't leave these supplies to Ge Rong's men. Come deal with us."

After this battle, Liu Yishou's prestige increased greatly, and everyone in Fangtou City breathed a sigh of relief.At least, Liu Yishou doesn't care whether he can fight or not, at least the whole leadership team can still fight.

In this way, everyone does not have to worry about falling asleep at night and being pushed in by thieves.

Just as Liu Yishou was reviewing the case for Uncle Cui Jiong, Li Shiyue and others, Yu Jin came with Zheng Shuzu, and behind them was a stout, disheveled young general in leather armor.

With his hands tied behind his back, he looked like a prisoner.

"Liu Dudu, I am lucky enough to persuade Zheng's men to arrest people on the bank of the Yellow River. It is a coincidence that this Marshal Han was caught and handed over to the Dudu for identification."

Zheng Shuzu said somewhat proudly.

"You are Han Xian?"

Liu Yishou circled around Han Xian, waved his hand at Jin and said, "Go ahead and chop them up, they are all murderers, it's useless to keep them."

"No, Dudu!"

Han Xian didn't even think about it, he just knelt down!
