Wang Bi and these people sneaked into the vicinity of Zhangjiachuan without alerting Governor Peng.
Because Bing Bu had various methods of dealing with those who opposed him, including those who were attacked by bandits, fell from their horses, attacked by wild beasts, etc., so Hyun and the others did not know which method Bing Bu would use to deal with them.
She had no choice but to be secretly escorted by Wang Bi every time she traveled. Of course, the number of escorts could not be too many, so as not to alert others, so some of them still stayed around Zhangjiachuan.
After Yan Xiaomao and Hou Mo and Chen Chong left Huan and the others, they went to contact Wang Bi. Because the enemy was hiding and could jump out at any time, they went to Wang Bi with every possible precaution.
Wang Bi sent a team to secretly escort Xun, and he followed with another hundred people from a distance. Every time he went out, Ding Wangcai, Lai Houhou, Yan Xiaomao and Hou Mo Chen Chong were randomly combined in pairs and then left the team.
Find him, determine his location, and contact him in case there is anything good to do.
Although Wang Bi would follow them at a fixed position every time, Hyun would always ask someone to confirm and contact Wang Bi. Habitual things are not a good thing on the battlefield. Taking advantage of the opponent's habits will lead to victory.
There are not a few cases of war.
Wang Bi rode his horse and strolled leisurely, looking at the mountains with thousands of ravines in the northwest. He put up a pergola and looked in the direction of Xuan, then continued strolling forward leisurely, waiting for two of the four people to come.
Not long after, he heard the sound of rapid hoofbeats coming from a distance, and two horses were vaguely visible. Judging from the sound and the dust raised, the two horses were running faster. Wang Bi had a bad feeling and called to the team.
Ready to fight.
When the two came to find Wang Bi, they saw some people who seemed to be bandits resting in a mountain col. The two hid their horses and quietly approached these people. They looked unfamiliar and it was difficult to judge.
Two people walked to a place far away from the crowd to talk. Yan Xiaomao and Chong quietly leaned over.
One of them asked:
"Where have Master Zhuo and the others gone?"
Another replied respectfully:
"Not far after leaving the inn, they stopped on the roadside and rested for a long time before continuing."
"Where are the people?"
"The common people have left first, and now Mr. Zhuo only has his own people around him."
The person who spoke first snorted:
"I want to distance myself from the common people so that we can fight easily. Master Zhuo is quite defensive."
The person who spoke behind said nothing, but he was thinking:
You have already provoked Mr. Bing, so you should be more careful.
The person who spoke first thought for a while and said:
"Since they value the common people's lives so much, let's start with the common people and lure them in! Make it more lively so that others will think it is the work of bandits."
Yan Xiaomao and Chong, who were eavesdropping on the side, winked at each other, then quietly retreated, mounted their horses and did not dare to run for fear that the sound of running would attract their attention. They walked for a long time before galloping in the direction of Wang Bi.
After Wang Bi heard what the two men said, he immediately led the team forward.
The fake bandits wanted to stop the people and let them fall into the trap, but unfortunately they didn't do so. Instead, they stopped moving forward. The leader had to send someone back to find them, and then they pretended to shout a few times.
When Wang Bi and others could see it, the fake bandits had already surrounded Hyun and the others in the mountain col. More than 20 people who secretly escorted Hyun and the others were lurking behind these people. Because it was not yet possible to determine whether they were bandits or not, so,
Neither they nor the more than twenty people moved.
Wang Bi was about to arrange a counter-siege, but Yan Xiaomao didn't want to see Xuan and the others being surrounded, so he anxiously took out the firecrackers to report the news, but it was too late for Wang Bi to stop him.
The noise on this side certainly attracted the attention of the other party, but because both parties were at the limit of vision, they could only see roughly, and Wang Bi asked the team to move forward in a single file. Therefore, although the fake bandit leader glanced at it, he could only see it briefly.
Seeing three people, he didn't pay much attention, but it was obvious that Hyun had already started taking action.
Yan Xiaomao was even more panicked. Not only were they far away, but their formation had not dispersed yet. He was grabbing his hair in a panic:
"What to do? What to do? What to do?!"
Wang Bi ignored him and quickly deployed his team. Chong glared at him and ignored him.
Before the team even got close, there was already fighting on the other side. Fortunately, there were more than twenty people who helped Huan and the others attract some of the firepower. Otherwise, just the four of them, even if they were using crossbows, they would still have to shoot into a sieve.
The leader looked at the twenty-odd people, smiled coldly, and didn't take them seriously at all. There were only twenty-odd people, what could they do? Some people blocked the twenty-odd people, but the leader still concentrated on dealing with Hyun.
As he was beating, he suddenly felt something was wrong. At this time, his deputy ran over in a panic:
"My lord, my lord, what's wrong, a hundred people came from nowhere and surrounded us!"
The leader was shocked:
"Surrounded?!"
Although this mountain col is not long, just over ten meters to less than twenty meters, but to surround them, it will take a while to go up and down. He asked in disbelief:
"Are you sure it's a siege?"
The deputy nodded firmly:
"It's definitely a siege! It doesn't look like soldiers sent from Qinzhou."
The leader snorted and glared at him:
"If troops were mobilized from Qinzhou, could Mr. Bing not hear the news?"
As soon as these words came out, the two of them thought at the same time whether they were transferred from the capital. How long had Master Zhuo planned this move? How could he wait so patiently? Both of them couldn't help but shuddered. Sure enough, Master Zhuo
Not to be underestimated.
Even if you feel afraid now, it's too late. You have to escape no matter what, and you can't be caught. If you don't let go after escaping, Master Zhuo can't do anything to them.
It was a good idea, but the people under my command were not cooperative.
They are not monolithic. Although the people under his command are all obeying Bing Bu, the popularity that Bing Bu has gained through force is not what the people want. So when it comes to such a life-threatening situation, they flee in all directions. Who cares who you are.
, it’s important to save your own life first.
When the leader saw that even his deputies were missing, he became really flustered. He thought that they were all dressed in casual clothes, wearing ordinary people's clothes. He could sneak away, but unfortunately, they were over fifty.
No one slipped through the net, they were all arrested.
Hyun stopped going to get the information and took the people back. With so many people arrested, they had to go back before Bing Bu got the information and catch him off guard.
Wang Bi also sent cavalry scouts to deliver messages to the troops stationed outside Zhangjiachuan at high speed to prevent Bing Bu from making any sudden changes after receiving the news before they returned.
After reuniting with the garrison, all the arrested people were kept in the army for trial. Wang Bi took another 200 people, together with the previous 100 or so people, and followed him into Zhangjiachuan.
Not all the soldiers in the capital have never been on the battlefield, there are also those who have changed their posts and come to the capital. In addition, the soldiers in the capital are more supportive of Master Zhuo. Therefore, all of them stare with pairs of blood-red eyes, looking at these people who dare to plot against Master Zhuo.
Those who want to be beaten violently! Let them all turn into murals or carpets.
Originally, Bing Bu and the others were dissatisfied, but when they were frightened by this atmosphere, some people who did not really obey Bing Bu were like jumping beans.
lenient.
The general guarding the west gate was at odds with Bing Bu and was squeezed out by Bing Bu. In order to save his life, he stayed away from the center of the battle between Bing Bu and took the initiative to guard the gate. Out of sight and out of mind, Bing Bu could do whatever he wanted.
I put my legs on the table, drank some wine, ate side dishes, hummed Qin opera, and blew the wind leisurely.
Suddenly a soldier rushed over. Without any regard for etiquette, he pointed at the wall with one hand and opened his mouth to report:
"Master Zhuo, Master Zhuo is here with his army!"
The general guarding the city was stunned, and then he jumped up and rushed towards the city wall. Tables and chairs were knocked over, and the wine and food were scattered all over the floor.
Climbing at the crenel, almost half of his body was stretched out. The soldier who came to report was holding his belt tightly:
"Sir, you can't go any further, you will fall!"
But the general's five senses were all focused on the dusty black mass in the distance. He heard nothing, and of course he didn't notice how dangerous he was.
When I heard that Master Zhuo came here as the governor, the general thought that Bing Bu would be dealt with, and he was filled with joy at finally welcoming the dawn. However, Master Zhuo had been here for several months, but he did not act as vigorously as he did on the battlefield. Not only that, but also some
Stupid, ignorant of the importance of confronting Bing Bu.
Originally I still had hope for Mr. Zhuo, but looking at this situation, Bing Bu also packed up the goods, and the hope that was raised was extinguished again.
But what he saw today was that Mr. Zhuo came galloping with an army. Although there were not many people, the appearance and discipline of the army was completely unmatched by an army like theirs that had been in constant internal strife.
The general's heart was trembling with excitement:
Are you here? Is Master Zhuo here?!
Suddenly I heard someone order:
"Close the city gate quickly! Go and notify Mr. Bing!"
The general withdrew from his own world in a panic. Before he finished speaking, he had already picked up the words and shouted:
"Who is the commander here?! Come here! Tie him up!"
Immediately, several people rushed out and tied up his deputy. This deputy appeared to be a deputy, but was actually sent by Bing Bu to monitor him. He was afraid that he would cause trouble. He usually looked aloof and arrogant.
The soldiers who defended the city were also divided into three factions: the neutral ones, you can go as you like and don't interfere with me getting paid; the pro-Bing Bu faction, these are die-hard fans of Bing Bu and absolutely support Bing Bu; and the last faction is the disgusting faction.
Bingbu's.
But Bing Bu's methods were cruel, and even the previous governor was obedient to him. They and others had nothing to do with Bing Bu, so they could only obey superficially.
The three factions fought openly and secretly, forming a microcosm of the entire southeastern border army on this small city wall.
The ones who came up to tie up the deputy were of course the Yan Bing Bu faction. Seeing Master Zhuo coming with the army, they were all encouraged. The general expressed his position on this side, and he didn’t need to say more on the other side. The Yan Bing Bu faction had already
He blocked everyone's way and prevented them from reporting the news to Bing Bu.
Hyun and the others ran close to the city gate and saw that the city gate was still wide open. They were a little confused and wondered if it was Bing Bu who had set them up.
When I was thinking about what to do, I heard someone shouting from the city wall with a somewhat excited tone:
"Master Zhuo, after waiting for you for a long time, you are finally here!"
Everyone looked up and saw a few heads sticking out of the city wall, but they couldn't see their faces clearly.
Hyun's heart sank. "You are finally here" made her nose feel a little sour. She cupped her hands and said to the people on the wall:
"I've kept you waiting for a long time." (To be continued)
