Chapter 1455: Temu really wants to turn the tables?
"Master Qi, there is news from the south of the city that the Khitan camp has ceased its activities. It seems that the war has subsided." A Lingxiao Pavilion disciple came forward and replied.
Murong Fu was stunned for a moment when he heard this, "So fast?"
"According to intelligence reports, Yelu Chongyuan's side was demoralized and unable to resist. It only took an hour for the army to collapse. Yelu Chongyuan had no choice but to order a truce and negotiate with Zhao...Yelu Hongji."
"Oh?" Murong Fu couldn't help being startled when he heard this, "Yelu Hongji agreed?"
The Lingxiao Pavilion disciple shook his head, "The inside story has not yet been discovered, but Yelu Hongji is currently receiving the remnants of Yelu Zhongyuan's army. It is expected that the two parties have reached some agreement."
Murong Fu pondered for a while and then sent a message, "Go and send a message to Zhao Hong, asking him to use the excuse of leaving the Yuan vassal state to send troops to intercept the Mongol army."
"yes!"
After the Lingxiao Pavilion disciples left, Murong Fu quickly issued a series of orders. Basically, except for the defenders at the north gate, all the armies from the other three gates were sent out to pursue the Mongolian army, including the martial arts people in the city. The morale of Xiangyang City was greatly boosted.
The Mongolian army was retreating steadily, making the situation worse.
"After this battle, I'm afraid Dayuan's vitality has been severely damaged." Murong Fu sighed quietly.
"Listening to your tone, it seems that you are still a little regretful?" Wu Wei asked strangely.
"Yes," Murong Fu nodded and said in a melancholy tone, "It's so cold when you're high up, and you can't find any opponents when you look around the world, it's a bit boring."
Wu Wei rolled her eyes at him, "From what you say, it seems that the Murong family is already invincible."
Murong Fu laughed, "Isn't it?"
Wu Wei sneered, "Please wake up, there is still the Qing Dynasty in the north, the Jinting in the Central Plains, and the Song Dynasty in the south is also a big problem. In addition, although Mongolia was defeated, it only hurt its vitality. The foundation is still there, and it is invincible in the world.
It’s too early to say anything.”
Murong Fu shook his head, "In the two countries of Jin and Qing, Jin Ting has long been a strong external force and is not a worry. Although the Qing Dynasty has the power to fight, it has insufficient foundation and unstable people's hearts. Maybe it is difficult to protect itself now, and the Yuan Dynasty,
If Temujin dies after this battle, it will definitely fall apart. If Temujin does not die, he may be able to survive for a few more years."
"As for the Song Dynasty, all the Xiangyang defenders are in my hands. The Ezhou army was massacred by the Yuan Dynasty, leaving only the imperial army to guard Lin'an. Unfortunately, the military power is also in the hands of my Murong family. You say that the Song Dynasty is a problem, how can I not see it?
come out?"
Wu Wei pursed her lips and said, "Then what is your righteousness? Don't forget, you are now the King of Yan, who is professed by the imperial court, and you represent the Emperor of the Song Dynasty. Even if you defeat the Yuan Dynasty, in the hearts of the people in the world, you are still the Song Dynasty.
After defeating Dayuan, no matter how strong your troops are, you cannot replace him, otherwise the name will be unjust and the people will be unconvinced."
Murong Fu's face froze slightly after hearing this, and then he glared at her with a dark face, "If you didn't tell me, I would have forgotten that you gave me the title of King of Yan without permission, and I haven't settled the accounts with you yet."
Wu Wei snorted, "Good intentions are worthless. If you don't have a name, why would the soldiers and civilians of Xiangyang work for you? If you don't have a name, your Murong family has suddenly risen to prominence and secretly raised an army. People would have captured the eighteen generations of your ancestors long ago."
After you find out, do you think that everyone in the world is stupid and can’t find out your family’s origins? Once someone reveals your family’s origins, how will you explain it?”
Murong Fu's face was drooled with a few rapid-fire words.
He wiped his face and said, "We are polite people. If you criticize someone, just criticize them. Please don't spit, okay?"
"Huh! I'm too lazy to pay attention to you!" Wu Wei's face turned red and she turned away angrily.
Murong Fu smiled coquettishly and gently held her shoulders, "Okay, okay, it's my fault. You are all right. I know I was wrong."
Wu Wei shook her shoulders but did not shake them away. She simply kept a cold face and said nothing.
"You are ignoring me, aren't you?" Murong Fu suddenly had a serious expression on his face, "If you continue to ignore me, I will kiss you!"
Wu Wei was stunned for a moment. Before she could speak, her mouth was blocked.
"Hey... uh uh..."
After kissing her deeply until she was breathless, Murong Fu let go of her and gently stretched out his hand to wipe away the saliva from the corner of her mouth.
Wu Wei took a long time to regain her composure, and spat with a red face, "You're a disciple!"
Then he turned around and ran down the tower.
Murong Fu suddenly remembered something, "Hey, I have something else to ask you."
Wu Wei didn't look back, "Go away, I don't want to talk to you now."
Murong Fu looked confused, "It's just a kiss, why are you so angry?"
"Haha..." Suddenly a sneer came, "Mr. Murong also said before that it was forbidden to talk about love in public, but yet he disrespected good families in public. He really only allowed the state officials to set fires and not the common people to light lamps."
Murong Fu turned around and saw Guo Jing and Huang Rong coming hand in hand. Guo Jing gently pulled Huang Rong's sleeve to signal her not to speak so directly, but Huang Rong seemed unaware and finished her sentence.
Murong Fu didn't know the meaning of shame at all, so he smiled lightly and said, "What Gang Leader Huang said is wrong. I don't hold any official position, so I can't be considered a state official."
"Now that you think about it, you don't have any official position?" Huang Rong was still waiting to say more, but Guo Jing suddenly stood in front of her and said, "Mr. Murong, the situation in Beimen has changed. According to Guo..."
Before he finished speaking, Murong Fu waved his hand and interrupted, "Guo Daxia, didn't you lead the martial arts people out of the city to suppress the enemy?"
Guo Jing's face was slightly stagnant, and he immediately explained, "Guo heard on the way that Master Murong had transferred half of the army guarding the north gate. Guo was worried that the troops were too small and could easily make mistakes. Although victory is in sight, he still cannot take it lightly, otherwise If you work hard for the mountain, you will only fall short of the success."
Murong Fu couldn't help but rolled his eyes, "Okay, okay, I understand. I'll go over to the north gate and have a look in a while. You can go do your thing quickly."
"That's...ok." It was easy for Guo Jing to see his perfunctory attitude, but he couldn't say anything. He sighed secretly and turned to leave.
Huang Rong was about to follow when Murong Fu suddenly stopped her, "Gang Leader Huang, I have something to discuss with you, please stay here for a moment."
Huang Rong reluctantly stayed. When Guo Jing walked away, she glanced at him and said, "What are you doing? I'm warning you, don't mess around."
She also thought that Murong Fu deliberately left her behind to do something.
Unexpectedly, he said with a half-smile, "Where did you think you were? I'm worried about your health."
Huang Rong reacted instantly, her face turned red, and she muttered, "Who wants you to worry?"
"Okay, let the men do the killing on the battlefield. You can go back home. It will be very cold tonight, but don't catch a cold."
"Go, I have internal body protection, how can I catch a cold?"
"What about my son?"
Huang Rong was startled and glanced around. Fortunately, no one was there. She glared at Murong Fu and said, "You are not allowed to talk nonsense anymore."
"I'll send someone to see you off."
After sending two Lingxiao Pavilion disciples to send Huang Rong back to the Guo Mansion half-forcedly, Murong Fu went to the North Gate alone. Despite his perfunctory attitude toward Guo Jing, he actually still had some sense of proportion in his heart. The more it was at the last moment,
The more we cannot take it lightly, it must be noted that villains always fail at the last moment.
"Strange, why did I become a villain? This kind of thinking is unacceptable. I am an upright person..."
Murong Fu came to the north gate. There were more than 20,000 troops stationed here. Originally, there were only 15,000. After discovering that something was wrong today, he sent another 30,000. However, the east gate army had been defeated before. He wanted to maximize the results of the victory.
So I transferred half of them.
"Sir, you are here!" When the city guard general saw Murong Fu, he immediately stepped forward to greet him.
Murong Fu waved his hand slightly, "How is the situation?"
The general replied, "The number of troops outside the north gate has doubled, and they have prepared boats and are preparing to forcibly cross the river. But just a quarter of an hour ago, they seemed to have received some order, and it seemed... they seemed to be preparing to retreat."
"Retreat?" Murong Fu was stunned. Would Temujin give up so easily?
As he spoke, the general led him up to the city tower, "Look, my lord, the ship has been launched, but it has not been boarded yet. Instead, it has retreated to the camp. The spies have just reported back, and they are gathering at the horse camp."
The horse camp was where the Mongolian army stored their war horses, numbering nearly 200,000. There were 50,000 cavalry stationed outside the city just to guard the horse camp.
"That's it!" Murong Fu took a look and instantly understood. Regardless of whether Temujin accepted the fact that the army was defeated, these 200,000 horses could not be lost. Therefore, seeing that the situation was not good, he would definitely order to kill them first.
The war horses may move away, or they may take a detour to the east gate to meet the army. Once the army outside the east gate gets on the war horses, the situation may be reversed.
The more he thought about it, the more likely he felt that this was a possibility. Murong Fu's face suddenly became serious. Not to mention that he had already been thinking about these war horses. If Temujin were to make a comeback like this, where would he put his face?
After thinking for a long time, he suddenly asked, "Did you just say that their military strength doubled?"
"Yes!" the general replied, "The general has sent people to the east gate to report to your Excellency that there is a new cavalry force in the north camp, numbering around 50,000."
"Strange, where did Temujin come up with so many troops?" Murong Fu was puzzled. No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't figure out where this reinforcement came from, but what is certain is that the army outside the north gate,
The number suddenly increased to 100,000.
After pondering for a moment, he said, "Don't act rashly yet. I'll go explore the situation."
"What!" The general's expression changed, "This is too dangerous, sir!"
"Don't worry, all the Mongolian masters are staying outside the east gate. No master in this camp can stop me. I'll come as soon as I go."
As he spoke, he jumped off the city wall, put his hands behind his back, and walked against the wind. After a while, he crossed the river and disappeared into the Mongolian camp.
The general on the tower sighed with great envy, "When will I be able to control the wind like this, and float like a fairy..."
Murong Fu broke into the camp alone and walked across it without making a sound. Soon he came to the horse camp. He heard a shout from far away, "Quick, move fast, each person rides one horse and leads two horses. Who can
If something goes wrong, I won't be able to spare him, so hurry up!"
One by one, the war horses were brought out from the horse camp, their bells were taken off, and their hooves were wrapped with cloth. Then each cavalryman was divided into two horses.
When Murong Fu saw this scene, he immediately knew that he had guessed correctly. As expected, these people were planning to detour to the east gate to meet Temujin.
