Chang Yu's energy is different from ordinary people, and he can even stay up for several nights and still be energetic. Last night, he was worried about the war situation in Wuhu and stayed up all night until dawn with no intention of sleeping again. He walked out of the Yamen with an oil umbrella and looked around on the street. It was raining heavily and there were almost no pedestrians.
He walked up to the city, followed by his personal attendant Qiao Sanxiu.
Every place in the city that could accommodate people was crowded with officers and soldiers, most of whom were sleeping soundly at this time. They had been exhausted from marching non-stop in the rain since Nanjing. In this state, they could only march, let alone fight on the battlefield.
I'm afraid I can't bear it.
Chang Yu held an umbrella and walked slowly at the top of the city. When he arrived at the North City, he saw a horseman coming slowly in the distance and felt a little confused. At this time, there were officers and soldiers outside the city scouting for the rebels, but most of them were in small groups. This type of riding alone was rare and
So leisurely.
Out of curiosity, he stopped and watched. Soon, the lone rider was discovered by the patrolling troops outside the city. More than ten riders rode over to investigate and quickly surrounded him. I don’t know what the two sides said. The man on the horse suddenly drew his sword. Chang Yu
I couldn't help but exclaim: "It's Sujing!"
The Night Demon is a pure and pure person who is feared by people in the world. She has superb swordsmanship and is cruel and ruthless, but few people know that she is actually a delicate and beautiful young nun.
"Why are you here?" Chang Yu frowned at the gate of Beicheng. When he left Nanjing, he left Su Jing and Lian Xin at the Huaiyuan Marquis Mansion, but now Su Jing came alone. Could something have happened: "Where is Lian Xin?"
"Lian Xin is doing well in the Hou Mansion. Mrs. Hou likes her very much." Su Jing looked at the little eunuch and bit her lip and said softly.
"Then why don't you just stay in the Hou Mansion? If you run around like this in chaos, don't worry about something happening." Chang Yu scolded lightly. He raised his plain eyebrows and said coldly: "The chaos in the army can't do anything to me. I want to go there tomorrow."
Go wherever you want.”
Okay, okay, okay, you are awesome. Chang Yu knew that this nun was extreme and proud and said she couldn't do it: "This is a war zone and it is not comparable to the rivers and lakes. No matter how powerful your martial arts is, the army will crush you in blood."
Su Jing jumped off the horse: "When we were in Jinan, you said you wanted me to see the world with you, but you didn't say you wanted me to hide in Nanjing and enjoy peace and quiet. Also, since I serve you personally, I have to follow you around. Look at you.
The big official has a guard next to him
Is it okay to follow? Are the others dead?" He muttered: "The monk and the beggar left without saying goodbye, but I am different. I keep my word and say that I will follow you to see the world, and I will see your world.
Don’t leave until you’re done!”
Chang Yu couldn't resist the good guy's attack with a machine gun, so he had to smile bitterly and nod: "You're right, you're right."
During breakfast, Gu Qinglian almost dropped his jaw when he discovered that there was a delicate nun beside the young eunuch. However, seeing the unsurprised expressions of Chang Yanling and others, he had to put aside his curiosity and asked instead: "The rain has stopped a little, can I supervise you?"
Lord, will the bandit army attack the city when you see it?"
"Definitely!" Chang Yu said decisively. Chang Yanling and Tang Guozuo looked at each other with serious expressions on their faces: "The city's less than a thousand troops are probably too weak. Do we need to send troops for reinforcements?"
Chang Yu smiled slightly and looked at Li Muchian: "What do you think, Taoist Master Fang?"
Li Muxian looked cheerful: "If Jin Shengheng had only a thousand troops to defend the city, I am afraid that the Governor would have sent out troops for reinforcements last night, but with nearly a hundred soldiers standing guard, there is no need to worry, and we
Waiting for the reinforcements to get too tired before going to call for reinforcements will undoubtedly lead to death.”
"Kuang Ren has less than a hundred men, so the Taoist priest said Wuyou is a bit exaggerated?" Tang Guozuo looked worried, and Li Muchian straightened his expression: "If a poor Taoist said that a hundred men can equal a thousand troops, the Marquis may not find it credible.
, but he can capture the city with a hundred men. Dare I ask, Lord Marquis, how many soldiers and horses under your command can do it?"
Tang Guozuo's face turned red, and he secretly scolded this arrogant person for not giving him face. Chang Yu saw his embarrassment and smiled slightly: "Soldiers are not only more valuable but more skilled. Not to mention how brave they are, but their long-term experience in the battlefield can judge and respond to the situation on the battlefield."
It’s very comparable to other people, and do you think there are only more than a thousand people defending the city? No, it’s the entire people of Wuhu City!”
Chang Yanling and others were stunned and suddenly understood, and they felt a little more admiration in their hearts: "Then let's just sit here and wait for the good news."
"That's not possible." Chang Yu waved his hands and said, "We have to help them shout a few times if we don't do anything." Then he glanced at Tang Guozuo and said, "I'll bother Marquis Lingbi to go there."
Tang Guozuo frowned: "Please, Eunuch Chang, please explain more clearly."
"Sent troops to Wuhu in three directions to build momentum. Of course, it is just a formality to make the rebels feel like a large army of officers and soldiers are suppressing the situation. Creating pressure can also distract their energy," Li Muchian said for Chang Yu.
"But the troops and horses are all exhausted, I'm afraid..." Tang Guozuo was a little worried, Chang Yu lightly knocked on the table: "It's just to build momentum, it's not necessary to approach the city, even if it's only ten miles out of the city, it's enough to be spotted by the bandit army."
When he heard that it was just pretentious, Tang Guozuo suddenly looked relaxed: "Okay, Eunuch Chang will just wait for the good news in the city."
Wait? Chang Yu laughed loudly: "Our family has never waited for news from behind. The warlord, the warlord, is going to the front line to supervise the battle!"
"Are you going to Wuhu?" Everyone was shocked, and Chang Yanling was very worried: "Why take risks when the arrangements have been made properly!"
"If not, how can we promote the prestige of our Dongchang factory?" Chang Yu chuckled, cupped his hands and turned around. Chang Yanling and others were shocked. The little eunuch's ability to intimidate both the government and the public was not earned for nothing. It is because of his courage.
How many people can compare.
Just as everyone in and outside Wuhu was preparing for war, Chang Yu's carriage came out of Dangtu City. The driver was the mute Chang Bian, followed by the Black Wolf Camp led by Lao Jiu, Wuzhong, Chen Wangting, Qiao Sanxiu,
And the sober escort car slowly headed south in the light rain.
Although the rain was light, the road was muddy, and the carriage was swaying in the mud. Chang Yu opened the curtain and looked at the rain outside, his eyes falling on Night Demon: "Su Jing, you haven't slept all night, do you want to come up and have a rest?"
"No need!" Su Jing touched the bamboo hat on her head, her face was cold and expressionless, and the corner of Mr. Wu's mouth next to her raised a half-smile but not a smile: "Sir..."
"roll!"
Chang Yu knew that this guy had absolutely nothing good to say, so he interrupted directly. Everyone laughed, and Wu Zhong shrugged as if he didn't care.
Lao Jiu rode the horse from the front of the team to the carriage and said, "Master Governor, if you find a bandit army probing the horse, will you kill it?"
Chang Yu thought for a moment and shook his head: "No, send someone to inform Lu Daqi quickly and send some rebel spies over, otherwise Tang Guozuo's shouting back would be in vain."
After talking and laughing for thirty miles, Chang Yu and his party arrived at the hill where Lu Daqi was. After all, Lu Daqi was a veteran who had led troops and fought in battles. He built this hill in just half a day according to local conditions.
The city was built as a military fortress. A simple lookout post was set up on the top of the mountain to keep the surrounding area clearly visible for several miles. Also, light and dark posts were set up at various places at the foot of the mountain to prevent the thieves from infiltrating.
There were forests on the hills, and the soldiers cut down trees and grass to build rain shelters, which could accommodate a thousand people. They dug holes under the rocks to light fires and boil water. Now they had a clean place to sleep and hot water to keep them warm.
The service was quite good. Chang Yu walked around and praised him. He had achieved his goal of training these soldiers in their field survival and combat abilities.
"Eat well, drink well, sleep well, and recharge your batteries. If you don't attack, don't retreat." Chang Yu climbed up to the lookout post on the hill and raised his telescope to look at it for a while. Through the rain curtain, he could see that there were many cavalrymen interspersed within a radius of several miles.
There was also a fight, in which the two armies were hunting each other with their horses. Lu Daqi had previously asked Chang Yu to open the openings in the wings to allow the bandits' horses to infiltrate north, but they were absolutely not allowed to enter within a five-mile radius of the hill.
"It's not raining heavily. It's almost noon. The rebel army in the south should start attacking the city." Chang Yu frowned and said softly, looking towards the south. Lu Daqi replied from below: "The rebel army has set up a tight defense line in the south.
Our army's scouts can't get through and can't find any news about Wuhu."
Chang Yu said "Oh", pondered for a while and then asked: "How far away are the bandits in the south and how many are their strength?"
"More than ten miles away, it was reported that there were three to four thousand people stationed there early in the morning. There is no movement in the village over there." Xu Hongji said first. Chang Yu nodded and looked at Li Muchian, only to see her stroking her beard and thinking for a moment: "It should be
The thieves are using it to block reinforcements. The reason why they are motionless may be because their troops are exhausted, but if we send troops to advance, they will risk their lives."
The faces of Xu Hongji and others changed, while Chang Yu smiled slightly: "Then shall we send troops?"
"Send it to his head." Li Muxian exclaimed, "But it doesn't matter if he shouts a few times. Since he is here to restrain us, why can't he be restrained by us?"
