The devil is coming

Chapter 208
"A Cheng, do you think it would be very successful if Shatuo Queshi were to assassinate the general of the opposing army at night?"
The blind man and Liang Cheng had just finished their work and were sitting behind the battlements under the sunset.
Liang Cheng shook his head and said, "It's very difficult."
"Tell me."
If it was Shatuo Queshi during his lifetime, he could deliberately control the release of his aura. If our soldiers and horses in the city help to cooperate, create chaos or attack the east, Shatuo Queshi would be responsible for the sudden advance. It is indeed possible. Behead the enemy general.
But although the current Shatuo Queshi is very powerful, as a zombie, it is still too young. Once it wakes up, it will be difficult to hide the evil spirit of the zombie from others, which is equivalent to giving the opponent a warning in advance.
Let’s not talk about the skill of the opponent’s general, but he is naturally surrounded by personal guards. As long as he can be blocked a little bit, it will be difficult for Shatuo Queshi to move around when the army is surrounded.
Therefore, the Shatuo Que Stone should either be used or used so that he can lead his master to break out of the encirclement at the most critical moment. This problem is not a big one. "
The blind man nodded silently. He was actually just asking, because using the Shatuo Que Stone would cause a huge chain reaction. The Shatuo Que Stone was a trump card that could not be revealed unless it was absolutely necessary.
Liang Cheng comforted him again:
"Don't worry too much. Although the walls of this Wubao are not very tall and towering, the engineering equipment is not that easy to build. They are coming in force, and they are not prepared for siege warfare. There should be an extremely shortage of craftsmen in the army. Even if craftsmen had to be dispatched from the Gyeonggi region, it would be almost impossible to completely build the required siege equipment in less than ten days and a half.
After such a long time, if the reinforcements from Yan State have not arrived, it will be meaningless whether we continue to defend here.
Instead, I suggested that the Emperor of Jin should be handed over by then, and we could take these soldiers and horses to break away from the control of Yan State. "
The meaning is very simple. If the Yan army has not appeared for so long, it means that the Yan court has acquiesced in the deal of sacrificing this army to let the Jin Emperor die like this.
The Yan State already has this attitude. What’s the point of staying in the Yan State sequence anymore?
"Yes, but to be honest, we are still a little too weak. We have to live a life based on the attitudes of the people above us. Not to mention that the Lord doesn't like it, we individuals are also helpless and aggrieved. "
"If the belongings are lost, it's okay if the people are there. Of course, it's best if the people are there and the belongings are also there. After working so hard from north to south and then to the east, we have toiled so far, and we can't go back further and further."
At this moment, the sound of a whistle and arrow came.
Everyone on the wall of Wubao immediately took action, subconsciously thinking that the Jin army actually wanted to start another siege before nightfall.
Liang Cheng stood up and looked outside Wubao.
Over at the Jin Army's stronghold, the gate was still closed, and no Jin troops were seen leaving the stronghold.
But the problem is that Xue San can't be untargeted.
He must have detected something, so he shot the whistle arrow directly.
"What's wrong? What's wrong? Is the Jin army going to attack the city again?"
Zheng Fan also hurriedly returned to the city wall.
"My lord, there is no movement at the Jin army's camp."
It's not night yet, and at dusk, the situation in Wubao can be seen clearly, so it is impossible for the Jin army to make a sneak attack.
"What's going on?" Zheng Fan asked, "Is it possible that reinforcements have arrived?"
Liang Cheng replied: "My Lord, there are not many defenders on the side of Xinsu City, and there are more than enough defenders. But the probability of telling the city to help us relieve the siege is not very high, because the status of Xinsu City is higher than that of Wubao here. Much, much heavier.
Reinforcements from other places arrived. From the time the news was delivered to the arrival of the reinforcements, even if the cavalry ran at full speed, it would take at least three days. "
The only Yan army in Xinsu City that is close to here is unlikely to send troops at the risk of losing Xinsu City, and reinforcements from other places cannot arrive so quickly.
The fire of hope that Zheng Fan had just raised was extinguished in an instant. He could only sigh and said:
"Then what's going on?"
"Lord, there seems to be someone over there."
A Ming pointed to the southwest.
Today, the main stronghold of the Jin army is in the east direction of Wubao, but there are also Jin troops stationed in other directions of Wubao. It can be said that the entire Wubao has been surrounded.
However, in the southwest, on the outskirts of the Jin army's stronghold, three figures appeared. Because they were a bit far away, they could not be seen clearly, but they could probably be seen riding horses.
Simultaneously,
With the appearance of these three people,
The Jin army's military base in that direction was quickly mobilized, and it was clearly visible that groups of Jin troops were gathering there.
"Is it a big shot from the Jin army? Situ Lei, the new emperor of Dacheng Kingdom?" Zheng Fan guessed.
Liang Cheng said: "My lord, it's probably not the case. I observed the Jin army on the opposite side. Although they attacked us twice and failed to achieve results, they are not a bunch of rabble. To a certain extent, they can be regarded as a well-ordered army." army.
And this is not the star chasing of later generations, these are Qiu Bahan who are bound by military discipline. Even if the emperor of Dacheng Kingdom comes here, it is impossible for the defenders to take the initiative to come out of the stronghold to greet them. "
After all, it is a serious army. Even if Situ Lei has just ascended the throne, he has just founded the country. However, although the Situ family has not been named emperor, it has been emperor for many years. Naturally, this kind of mountain king will not return to the village. The brothers collectively responded to the lively scene.
Also at this time,
The gate of the Jin army's main camp due east was opened.
A cavalry group carrying the flag of the general rushed out from the gate of the village.
"Is the Jin Army coach already alarmed?" Zheng Fan was a little stunned.
Liang Cheng was a little incomprehensible at this moment.
But one thing, everyone can be sure that the atmosphere of the Jin army on the opposite side is not that warm and high-pitched, but rather tense, as if facing a formidable enemy.
On the other side, Fan Li, who had just unloaded a bag of sand and gravel, looked in that direction blankly.
reach out,
I scratched my hair,
Road:
"Hey dear mother, is the Supreme Treasure really here?"
Xue San's figure appeared under the city wall. He came back directly after shooting the sentry arrow. Perhaps because the Jin army was alerted by other things, they did not send sentry riders to target him. Xue San was able to run back freely. .
Before the people on the wall put down the rope, Xue San climbed up the wall like a gecko with a dagger. After climbing over the wall, he landed in front of Zheng Fan and others.
"Lord, reinforcements are coming!"
Xue San congratulated with a look of joy on his face.
"Reinforcements?" Zheng Fan was also shocked. Liang Cheng had explained to himself before that reinforcements could not arrive so quickly, but since Xue San could say so confidently, there must be reinforcements.
After all, Liang Cheng was just analyzing, Xue San saw it with his own eyes.
"Yes, reinforcements are coming. Lord, guess who my subordinates saw coming?"
The blind man said: "If you keep trying, I'll castrate you."
Xue San immediately replied:
"My lord, the Marquis of Jingnan is here!"
"Jingnan Marquis?" Zheng Fan's eyes widened and he asked quickly: "Are you sure you read it correctly?"
"How can I see this wrong? Even if I can't see the human face clearly, can I see that brave animal wrong? Can I see that gilded armor wrong?"
Zheng Fan suddenly breathed a sigh of relief,
Yes,
The night Tian Wujing committed suicide and killed everyone, Zheng Fan was by his side.
But in this moment,
When he learned that Tian Wujing appeared nearby,
Zheng Fan was very convinced,
Save yourself.
.........
"Report!"
A long report came from outside the military tent.
The Master Sword Master stood up knowingly, left the handsome chair, and stood aside.
"Come in!"
Yu Huacheng shouted.
"Report, Commander, there is enemy activity in the southwest!"
"Southwest?"
Yu Huacheng's eyes narrowed and he immediately asked:
"Is it from Yan?"
"They are from Yan." The messenger was hesitant to speak.
Yu Huacheng immediately asked:
"Who led the troops?"
Li Bao's northern army is in Quhe City. It is located in the northwest, south, or southwest direction. It should be Litian City. And guarding Litian City and the real controller of the new land is Yan. The Marquis of Jingnan.
"Commander, the flags displayed by the opponent are the black dragon flag of the Yan Kingdom on one side, the flag of the Jingnan Army on the other, and... and..."
"Bastard, is this the time to hesitate?" Yu Huacheng cursed directly.
"Commander, the person coming seems to be Marquis Jingnan of the Yan people!"
"Tian Wujing!"
Yu Huacheng's heart suddenly stopped.
Laymen watch the excitement, but experts watch the door.
The outside world's report that the Yan army's 20 cavalry wiped out the Helian family's 60 army in one fell swoop is basically attributed to the Yan people's Zhenbei army, which is indeed unparalleled in cavalry.
But a general of Yu Huacheng's level naturally knew that the Yanren Zhenbei Army's cavalry was indeed powerful, but the reason why that battle was able to achieve such exaggerated results was the person who coordinated the entire battle from the Yan State. , and he is the Marquis of Jingnan of the Yan people.
It's a pity that the Jingnan Marquis has a very bad reputation among the people because of his suicide attempt.
However, a hundred years ago, the first generation of Zhenbei Hou broke from 50 to [-]. Today, the contemporary Jingnan Hou took advantage of the passage to enter Jin and cut off half of the Jin Kingdom in one fell swoop.
It is no exaggeration to say that the title of No. 1 general in the world now naturally falls on Jingnan Marquis.
Yu Huacheng was very confident. He believed that he was capable and talented, but it was just because of Emperor Jin's own reasons that he had been unable to put it to use.
But no matter how confident he was, he was not confident enough to dare to have a duel with the Jingnan Army led by Jingnan Marquis himself.
the most important is,
Behind him, the main force of the Situ family is on the side of the Tianduan Mountains!
The Master Sword Master saw his brother looking distracted, and sighed helplessly;
He knew that this was human nature, just like when an ordinary genius swordsman suddenly had to face a duel with himself one day.
The Lord Sword Master came over, reached out and patted his brother on the shoulder, injecting a surge of momentum into his body:
"Steady your mind!"
Yu Huacheng's body stiffened slightly, but then he recovered.
Looking at this messenger soldier,
asked:
"Jingnan Army, how many troops are here?"
The messenger pursed his lips.
Murderous intent appeared in Yu Huacheng's eyes. The performance of this messenger soldier today can be said to be quite bad.
at last,
The messenger soldier knelt on the ground with his head,
report:
"Coming back to the commander-in-chief, if you include Marquis Jingnan himself, Yan Jun, Yan Jun...
Three people are here! "
