Chapter 104 Succession (2)
In September, there were more and more pedestrians on the streets of Chengdu Prefecture.
The hot weather in July and August has disappeared at this time, and it is a cool feeling.
The trees and branches on both sides said, "This official is his nephew Pei Xin."
"Master Prefect! General Dingyuan of Wenyang, with 20,000 troops, rushed to Yangle County!" Pei Xin said anxiously.
"So what if General Dingyuan is here..." Pei Chengyan said slowly, but suddenly stopped: "Who did you say come?"
"General Dingyuan! General Dingyuan is coming with 20,000 troops in Chaoyang Le County!"
The repeated words immediately shocked Pei Chengyan. He didn't even know that the cup in his hand fell to the ground. He stood up suddenly and said sternly: "This matter is serious? If there is any falsehood, military law will deal with it."
"Sir, uncle, how dare you lie about this? Wenyang's army is less than thirty miles away from the city!" Pei Xin said in a crying voice.
Hearing this, Pei Chengyan looked pale and wandered around the room, but he still calmed down: "How many soldiers are there in the city?"
"Sir, there were originally three capital soldiers in the city, but the general took away the second capital, but now there is only one capital." Pei Xin said.
"Why don't you go and summon the generals quickly and discuss how to resist?" Pei Chengyan said instructed. Seeing Pei Xin still, he frowned and said, "What do you think?"
Pei Xin suddenly pounced on the ground, knelt on the ground, and said chokingly, "Now there are only one capital soldiers in the city, only one thousand five hundred people. How can these thousand five hundred people resist the 20,000 army?"
"Stop talking, you can't resist it if you have 1,500 people? There have been thousands of people who have been guarding for several months since ancient times!" Pei Chengyan was furious and scolded, "Don't let me hear these words of Wujun and Wufu again, and I can't go down!"
"Uncle, think about it, now the Grand Marshal is dead, the new Lord is weak, Uncle, I know that you have received the Grand Marshal's kindness and want to repay you, but how can these thousand soldiers resist? Besides, when Wang Hongyi's army arrives, the wealthy families and the great families have their own different intentions. Wouldn't they gather to open the door?"
"Uncle, do you dare to kill all the wealthy families in the city to recruit their private soldiers to resist for a few months?" At this point, Pei's crying voice suddenly rose, filling the room: "If this is not the case, I'm afraid that these wealthy families will take the heads of our Pei family to offer the city in less than three days!"
"Uncle, you have to think about the whole family of our Pei family!"
