Chen Bosong no longer knows how many heads he has cut off, and he has fought countless battles, but there has never been a time like now. His body and face are all blood of the enemy—and his own.
He led a vanguard team and stabbed in like a sharp knife when Zhao Pusheng led the army to retreat.
There are soldiers' wailing in his ears, some from the enemy, and some from his own side.
And the army led by Zhu Yuanzhang also rushed over at this time.
Zhao Pusheng was obviously in disarray. Half of their people entered the city. Now the city gate has not been closed. Zhao Pusheng's soldiers are still rushing in. They don't know how many people are behind them, they can only hear their comrades. cries.
"Close the city gate." Zhao Pusheng gritted his teeth, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead. Now that he is standing on the city wall, he also knows what choice he is facing. When the city gate is closed, the enemy will not be able to rush. Come in, but the soldiers of nearly 50,000 people are no longer the combat power he can use.
Without closing the city gate, he has no confidence to defeat them in Hanyang City, not to mention that once the enemy army enters Hanyang City, Hanyang City is not an empty city, it has people and their court.
The staff said to him, "General, you can't close the city gate! Once the city gate is closed, we will lose nearly 50,000 people. Without these 50,000 people, we will be stable for a while. What will we do after that?"
Zhao Pusheng asked him, "Then what do you think we can do? Go out of the city to fight now? They are holding the gate of the city, and the 50,000 people are blocking the gate. If we rush out now, it will be the sheep into the tiger's mouth."
The staff shut up.
Guanchengmen can at least protect Hanyang City for now, and then deploy troops from other places.
The aide closed his eyes, a little hopeless.
Originally, nearly half of Hanyang's soldiers were taken away because of Ni Wenjun's rebellion, and now they have lost another 50,000 people.
What's the next fight? He didn't have a clue.
Chen Baisong looked at the city gate that was slowly closing and pulled the reins.
They are only cavalrymen who can rush in at this time, but the city gate of Hanyang City is opened and closed on the city wall. Even if they rush in, they can't stop the city gate from closing. Can't escape death.
So the only way now is to watch the city gate close before their eyes.
In the end, it's still a chess move, and Zhao Pusheng is really willing.
Chen Baisong was standing on the hillside, and Zhu Yuanzhang was sitting on a stone not far from him. Both of them were described as embarrassed, covered in sweat and blood, flies swirling around them, and the smell was not very good. The situation is much better, he doesn't need to charge with Chen Bosong and the others, so his body is dry now, and the hat he wears is not even crooked.
"Don't worry. When Zhao Pusheng returns, he will definitely be attacked by a group, and he will lose 50,000 people before the battle. Now Han Yangneng doesn't lead many troops, and they have to take care of Ni Wenjun." "Ding Pulang and Fu Youde are not as good as Zhao Pusheng."
In the back, Lin Yuanzheng and Li Congrong were lying on the grass together, and the two were also talking about Hanyang.
"I thought that Ni Wenjun would rebel and Hanyang would be in chaos, but I didn't expect that they were all loyal to Xu Shouhui." Li Congrong didn't understand, Xu Shouhui had no real power in his hands, what was the point of following Xu Shouhui? Why not start over
Lin Yuan asked, "Do you think they don't follow Xu Shouhui and surrender to Ni Wenjun, what will Ni Wenjun do to them? Will there still be high officials? Ni Wenjun would be considered kind if he didn't kill them."
Li Congrong half understood.
Lin Yuan smiled and said, "Like if someone in my hand turned against me at this time, would you follow him or me?"
Li Congrong didn't even think about it: "I will kill him."
Lin Yuan smiled and said: "That's because the two of us met at Weimo, and our friendship is naturally different. There are naturally such people in Xu Shouhui's hands, but these people have no real power, and those with real power cannot go to Ni Wenjun. Why is Ni Wenjun in a dilemma now?"
No one in Hanyang City cooperated with Ni Wenjun inside and outside.
There is no army in other places willing to support Ni Wenjun.
If they hadn't come, Ni Wenjun should have been defeated by now.
In Lin Yuan's memory, Ni Wenjun's rise and fall were both miserable. After he failed, he went to Chen Youliang for support. As a result, Chen Youliang killed him, incorporated his army, and then replaced Ni Wenjun and became Xu Shouhui's side. The important minister also replaced Ni Wenjun in power.
That is, from then on, Chen Youliang stood on the stage of troubled times, and he will become stronger and stronger, and eventually become a behemoth.
Lin Yuan wanted to cut off Chen Youliang's path from the root. He would not wait for Ni Wenjun's army, nor would he see Ni Wenjun again.
In Gaoyou City, Jiang Gui is dining with his family. Since he became the prefect of Taizhou, his quality of life has been improving, and the power in his hands has become more and more powerful, but none of these can make him take it lightly. Jiang Gui knows his abilities. , If it wasn't for the lack of suitable people in Lin Yuan's hands at that time, he would not have been able to be this governor at all.
He will never forget what Lin Yuan said to him.
Without him, Lin Yuan still has countless available people in his hands.
He is not unique and irreplaceable.
But he has a friendship with Lin Yuan, so Lin Yuan gave him the opportunity. As long as he can do his job well, even if he is greedy, as long as he is not greedy enough, and the greed does not affect his practical work, Lin Yuan will not touch him. .
Jiang Gui's wife looked at her husband's expression and asked with concern, "But what happened? Why is your face so bad?"
Jiang Gui smiled, and the smile was very reluctant: "I haven't slept well these days."
During this time, he had been having nightmares. At first, he dreamed that he died in Wucheng. When the refugees broke in, they had nowhere to escape, so they could only hide at home and hope that the refugees would leave. Hoping, they were found, and the refugees killed his parents and insulted his wife in front of him.
And he was cut off by them in the end.
Later, the dream gradually changed. He dreamed of Gao You in the firelight, and he heard someone say that the enemy was attacking.
In the dream, the raging fire surrounded him, he sent someone to ask Yang Zian for help, and personally took Gaoyou's soldiers to the city gate.
He hasn't dreamed of the end yet, and he doesn't know what the end will be.
But this dream gave him a warning, Jiang Gui believed in gods, and he believed that dreams were messages from gods to people.
But he is still hesitating, does he need to write a letter to Yang Zian in advance and ask Yang Zian to bring someone to Gaoyou
Gaoyou has salt, the robbers and bandits around him are eyeing Gaoyou, and the court seems to have never given up on Gaoyou.
Jiang Gui is ready to believe in himself once.
After he had eaten, he went to the study and wrote a letter to Yang Zian who was in Changzhou at this time.
In the Changzhou military camp, Yang Zian is reading the military book. Since he became a general, the military book is no longer a luxury for him. As long as he shows what he wants, someone will give him what he wants. sent to him.
But he has no interest in anything other than military books.
He didn't have a wife or concubine, and he was with the soldiers in the barracks all day long.
The soldiers believed him. He could fight, and he would also say. The soldiers said, "I am a scholar who is useless."
The personal soldiers were making the bedding for Yang Zian, and he whispered, "I don't know how Nan Bodhisattva and the others are now."
The soldier sighed: "Where is the reason for Nan Bodhisattva to conquer himself? If Nan Bodhisattva does anything wrong, they should all die for their sins."
Yang Zian was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Don't worry, even if they all died in battle, Nan Bodhisattva will be fine."
Yang Zian lowered his eyes. I don't know when he stopped calling Lin Yuan the fourth younger brother. Unlike Li Congrong, he sometimes confused the names. He knew exactly where he was. He didn't want him one day. It will also be different.
But sometimes, Yang Zian can't help but think.
How does Lin Yuan feel? How would he feel when he found that no one around him dared to tell him the truth, no one dared to look him in the eye, and everyone was looking forward to benefiting from him
Yang Zian smiled.
He and Lin Yuan have gone farther and farther, and there has always been a trade-off between the ruler and the minister.
And Lin Yuan is not a weak person. When he was alive, he would never allow anyone to climb on his head.
Yang Zian knew what to do.
He will never make friends with Wenchen in his life, nor will he touch things that should not be touched by him.
He will follow Lin Yuan closely, what Lin Yuan has to do is what he has to do.
In this way, he can stay in this position for a long time, and when everything has to settle, he will start a family, like Li Congrong, marry a daughter of a small family, and continue the blood.
Just when Yang Zian was about to fall asleep, the messenger arrived.
He was sitting beside the bed in his underwear, and when he read the letter handed over by the soldier, he laughed dumbly.
"What are these?" Yang Zian read it again and found that Jiang Gui was not really joking, he was seriously asking himself for help.
Just because of a dream
Yang Zian laughed. He looked at what Jiang Gui wrote, and he thought the reason why the enemy army would attack Gaoyou.
"Forget it, he's timid." Yang Zian said with a smile, "If you ask someone to lead 10,000 people over, you should give him a reassurance, but he will be responsible for food, clothing, housing and transportation."
However, Jiang Guimeng's raid should be very serious. After all, Taizhou itself has 30,000 troops stationed. Originally, there were 100,000 troops. Lin Yuan took away more than half of them. Now the largest force is Changzhou, which is guarded by Yang Zian.
Therefore, the pressure on Yang Zian's shoulders is also very high, and his capable people have been assigned to different counties and big cities.
Once there is a problem with him, he will lead troops to support him. What Yang Zian didn't expect is that Jiang Gui will come to find something for him.
The reason for looking for something is just because of a dream.
Yang Zian rushed to the soldiers and said, "Let Zhang Jiulu come to see me tomorrow morning."
The personal soldier was startled: "His brother is now the commander of Wan, but the general still wants to use him? What luck did their Zhang brothers have?"
I really envy him!
