The Summoning of the Troubled Times at the End of the Sui Dynasty

Chapter 243 Waiting For The Rabbit, Waiting For The Opportunity

Taiping Army Camp

In the military tent, the Taiping generals suddenly started to quarrel.

On the one hand, the Western King Xiao Chaogui was the leader, reprimanding the Southern King Feng Yunshan for not understanding military affairs.

It is obvious that you can march directly from the small road, not only the road is similar, but there is no defenders to resist.

On the other side, it was led by the Southern King Feng Yunshan.

The Taiping generals under his command excused him one after another, saying that although he marched on the avenue, he would not be ambushed although he took a detour.

For a time, the two factions 'the public says the public is right, and the woman says the woman is right', and neither could convince the other.

The situation is deadlocked!
…………

Suddenly, Feng Yunshan slammed the table, stood up, and roared angrily: "Now our Taiping Army has been unable to attack the city for a long time."

"As a result, it is impossible to continue to march into Changsha. You don't want to think about how to break the city."

"But complaining and arguing with each other in the tent, how decent is it?"

In an instant, Feng Yunshan stopped the generals by relying on his lofty reputation.

For a moment, the tent was completely quiet, and no one spoke.

Immediately, after a long time, Feng Yunshan walked down from the desk, stood among the generals, and confessed: "This time it is indeed my king's decision-making mistake!"

"I ordered the whole army to march towards the avenue, and was finally resisted by the Jingzhou army here, unable to move forward."

"This is all my fault, so I decided to officially hand over the position of coach."

"As long as anyone in the army thinks that he can lead the whole army to break through the city, and then move the army northward to capture Changsha."

"The king is willing to obey orders, and will go through fire and water!"

Suddenly, Feng Yunshan took out the commander's seal and held it in the palm of his hand.

However, time passed slowly, but no general stepped forward to take the seal of command.

After all, that was a symbol of mobilizing tens of thousands of troops.

As long as you accept this seal, you will be fully responsible for the next battle.

All the generals present knew very well how much they weighed.

So, how can you stand up and accept printing?
…………

Seeing that there was no one to take over the seal, Feng Yunshan held up the commander's seal and said loudly: "Since there is no one to replace this king, then this king will continue to lead the army."

"From that day on, the whole army must obey the king's military orders. They are not allowed to discuss the king in private without reason, and those who violate it will be executed!"

Suddenly, Feng Yunshan's tone became sharp again.

These words immediately made the Taiping generals shudder.

Immediately afterwards, Southern King Feng Yunshan went back to the case and ordered loudly: "This king now gives the order!"

"Due to the long-term inability to attack Muxian County, this king decided to turn to a small road and march."

"Strive to break through Lingling in one fell swoop, then march into Hengshan County, and then capture Wuling."

At the same time, Feng Yunshan actually gave the order to change lanes.

…………

In the early morning of the next day, the veteran general Huang Zhong and his deputy Gao Xiang patrolled the city to guard against the Taiping army's continued attack.

However, unexpectedly, the Taiping Army has not arrived at the city for a long time.

Immediately, Gao Xiang couldn't help saying: "The Taiping Army has already retreated, right?"

Hearing this, the veteran Huang Zhong on the side looked suspicious, and murmured: "Don't be careless!"

"If this is a trick of the Taiping Army, when our army relaxes its vigilance, it will make a large-scale surprise attack!"

Even though he guessed like this, just to be on the safe side, Huang Zhong also sent several waves of scouts out of the city to investigate.

In the end, several waves of scouts returned, bringing back the same piece of information.

That is, the Taiping Army camp is now empty.

After receiving the news, Huang Zhong and Gao Xiang let down their vigilance.

I know that the Taiping Army has really led the army to withdraw this time.

But in the next moment, Huang Zhong's sharp eyes slowly opened, and he said, "Since the Taiping Army is now withdrawing."

"Then our army should also take action and send a big gift to the so-called Taiping Heavenly Kingdom!"

The words ended, and that night, an army left the city and quietly disappeared into the darkness.

However, the retreating Taiping army did not know about this scene, because they were marching towards the trail at night.

…………

Trident Ridge

It is only said that the Jingzhou army has been ambushing here for several days.

However, none of the Taiping Army showed up, which made the soldiers under their command restless.

"I said, will the Taiping Army come?"

"You ask me, I don't know, but I have been in the army for so long, and I also know the truth of 'soldiers are precious and fast'."

"Our army has been in ambush for several days, but no Taiping army has appeared. I'm afraid they won't come!"

The above-mentioned dialogue is being staged everywhere in the army.

The soldiers whispered among the soldiers, and guessed suspiciously.

In an instant, Zhang Liao rushed over and reported to Gao Qi.

After hearing this, Gao Qi calmed down and ordered: "Wen Yuan, tell all the ministries!"

"The whole army lay in ambush quietly, waiting for the opportunity."

"If there are still whisperers and those who disturb the morale of the army, they will definitely be killed!"

Suddenly, Gao Qi's whole body exuded a strong murderous aura.

For a moment, even Zhang Liao was shrouded in this murderous aura, he couldn't help but shuddered, and obeyed the order: "Promise!"

After Zhang Liao retreated, the murderous aura around Gao Qi gradually dissipated.

Therefore, he murmured: "This time, even if it is waiting until the year of the monkey, it is considered to be waiting for the rabbit."

"I will have to wait!"

"Feng Yunshan, the general has arranged a big gift for you, just waiting for you to enjoy it."

As the order was passed down, Sancha Ridge became even more silent for a while.

The whole army is quietly hidden, and the arrival of the Taiping Army is sealed!

…………

It is only said that since the Taiping Army was blocked in Fu County and changed its march.

In the past few days, the Taiping Army has been marching day and night.

It is only about thirty miles away from the watershed of the Trident Ridge.

However, the further you go, the denser the mountains on both sides of the road.

This couldn't help but make the cautious Feng Yunshan think again.

Is there an ambush on this road?
However, even though he thought so, Feng Yunshan had no choice but to lead his army forward.

After all, the avenue is now occupied and defended by the Jingzhou army in advance.

Now, before the eyes of the Taiping Army, this path is the only one that can pass unimpeded.

In the end, as the weather was getting worse, the entire Taiping Army arrived at the outskirts of the Sancha Ridge.

Between the mountains on both sides, the wide and flat Xiang River flows through.

At this time, Feng Yunshan's inner anxiety was getting higher and higher, as if something bad was about to happen.

After contemplating for a long time, Feng Yunshan finally ordered the whole army to camp on both sides of the Xiangshui River because of the late weather.

All of a sudden, the Taiping Army soldiers who were in a hurry stopped here one after another and began to set up the camp.

…………

At this time, Feng Yunshan ordered Xiao Chaogui to continue to lead the army to set up camp.

And he himself took hundreds of guards to cross the mountains and ridges, climbed to the top of the mountains on both sides, looked down at the surroundings, and observed the situation.

After all, now that Feng Yunshan is the commander-in-chief of the army, every step he takes is crucial, and it is related to the lives of all soldiers in the army.

Therefore, no sloppiness can be tolerated, so Feng Yunshan has to personally survey the terrain here.
