, the fastest update to the latest chapter of The General is So Fierce! "Where is Zhi'er? What did the doctor say about his arrow wound?"
Zhu Hang looked haggard. He had a big quarrel with General Ge Huaicong in the hall. He also heard that Zhu Zhi was patrolling the front line at night and was shot in the neck by an enemy arrow and was in critical condition. He felt like he had been struck by a bolt from the blue again.
The footman led Lu Wenhu into the hospital, saw Xu Huai, Xu Wukun and others standing in the yard, and asked anxiously.
"Young Master is in the house..." Xu Huai invited Zhu Hang and Lu Wenhu to come into the house to talk.
Zhu Hang pushed the door open and saw Zhu Zhi standing in the room. He looked like he had been injured by an arrow and was in danger of dying.
"Why did you lure me here? What do you want to do?" Zhu Hang stared at Xu Huai sternly and asked.
"We are not trying to deceive Zhu Langjun, but we are actually afraid that Ge Huaicong and Yue Hailou will be aware of it." Xu Huai walked to the long desk and sat down, motioning Zhu Hang to sit down as well, and said, "Zhu Langjun might as well sit down and talk."
Zhu Hang stared at Xu Huai with a cold expression and sat in front of the long desk.
"Ge Huaicong, Yue Hailou, Cao Shili and Zhu Hang had a military meeting late at night, but they sent all the others away. They must have discussed abandoning the city and escaping, right? Otherwise, not even my seventh uncle and Mr. Lu would have
You are not qualified to stand in the courtyard!" Xu Huai asked straight to the point.
Since Xu Huai was the Yaksha Fox, Zhu Hang didn't want to hide anything from him, but he looked to the left and right, hoping that everyone else would move away, for fear that if this matter was leaked, the morale of the army would collapse.
"Actually, this is a moment that I have expected a long time ago. There is no need to hide anything anymore. Mr. Lu also knew it earlier and could make more preparations for Mr. Zhu Kang." Xu Huai said.
"Although Ge Huaicong and others had this idea, they abandoned 40,000 troops and fled back to Lanzhou. Who can tolerate them?" Zhu Hang's voice was hoarse, but he said firmly, "You don't need to worry about this, and I am determined to do so.
I won’t sit back and watch them abandon 40,000 soldiers and flee alone!”
"What's Yue Hailou's opinion?" Xu Huai asked.
"..." Zhu Hang hesitated for a while and said, "Yue Hailou is a coward after all, but he persuaded Ge Huaicong to leave tonight!"
"Yue Hailou is not cowardly,"
Xu Huai said,
"His attitude at this time can give us a clear message. He has concluded that Liu Shizhong and Cai Yuanyou will not send reinforcements, and the sooner he encourages Ge Huaicong to escape, the less guilty Liu Shizhong and Cai Yuanyou will be for not sending reinforcements.
. He calculated very clearly that only in this way would it be most beneficial to the Cai clan, and he did not care about the life or death of the 40,000 soldiers. Mr. Zhu Hang, think about it, if the 40,000 soldiers and horses of Tianxiong's army were able to support it until the end of Datong City.
The food was exhausted and there was no reinforcements. One of Liu Shizhong and Cai Yuanyou would have to die to apologize, and the Cai faction would also suffer a heavy setback. However, if the Tianxiong army of 40,000 soldiers and horses could not hold up five troops in Datong City,
Oh my God, it was Tianxiong's army who indulged in military discipline and provoked fierce resistance from the peasants, leading to a huge defeat. Is it difficult for the court to blame Liu Shizhong and Cai Yuanyou for not sending reinforcements in time?"
"..." Zhu Hang is not stupid. Sometimes he doesn't think deeply because he really can't bear it, or he is unwilling to follow people like Ge Huaicong and abandon 40,000 soldiers.
"Mr. Zhu Lang, don't try to convince Ge Huaicong and the others on this point. Even if they understand this, they won't have the courage to hold on. When the food is exhausted and the army collapses, they just want to escape now and then think about it."
There is no way to reduce the guilt," Xu Huai continued, "No matter how angry you are, Mr. Zhu Lang, or how threatening you are, the lives of 40,000 soldiers are no longer in their consideration.
It's within consideration! Mr. Zhu Kang, no matter how you insist on your opinion, in the end it will only prompt them to hide you and run away. If we weren't here, they might not dare to kill you, Mr. Zhu Kang. A dead man will always have to bear more responsibility.
There is so much guilt, after all, I can’t open my mouth to defend myself!”
"..." Zhu Hang looked up at Xu Huai and said bitterly, "You tricked me into coming here in the middle of the night. You probably didn't just tell me this, right?"
"I asked Mr. Zhu Hang yesterday how we should deal with things that are not harmonious?" Xu Huai said, "Mr. Zhu Hang didn't respond to my words yesterday. Now I just want to ask again.
."
"Ge Huaicong, Yue Hailou and others definitely want to escape, and Cao Shili doesn't want to die here. What can I do? I'm afraid you are asking the wrong person this question." Zhu Hang said.
"Ge Huaicong, Yue Hailou, Cao Shili and others fled across the city, and the army would collapse immediately. Previously, Tianxiong's army burned, killed, looted and looted without mercy, which must have aroused the desire of the Tibetan people to kill. The 40,000 soldiers finally
The fact that hundreds of people escaped and ascended to heaven may be due to God's blessing. In the end, they will inevitably die under the butcher's knife of the peasants. It is hard to escape." Xu Huai asked, "But has Mr. Zhu Kang ever thought about it, or there is a way to call more people?"
People survive..."
"What can be done?" Zhu Hang asked.
"Does Mr. Zhu Kang dare to save the lives of thousands of generals and bear some infamy?" Xu Huai asked.
"No, don't think about coercing me into surrendering to the enemy," Zhu Hang stood up in fear like a cat whose tail was stepped on, sternly staring at the knife on Xu Huai's waist, and said sternly, "I, Zhu Hang, only have to die.
, I will never be manipulated by you!"
"Mr. Zhu Hang, you are serious!" Xu Huai said, "Wang Zhenxian Gong always believed that the Khitan was in its twilight years and was not a threat to Vietnam. The people who really needed to be vigilant were the Red Husbands. In this regard, the Khitan was also like Xiao Lin.
Generals like Shi have long realized that the Khitan and Dai Viet are inseparable. What we have to do is not to surrender to the enemy - the Khitan is in danger at this time. Isn't it funny to speculate on the Khitan at this time? Please don't underestimate Xu Langjun.
Something happened."
"...Say." Zhu Hang frowned and stared at Xu Huai.
"What we have to do is to make Xiao Linshi believe that when we return to Lanzhou, we will definitely find a way to promote a truce between Dai Viet and Khitan and work together to deal with the Red Husbands," Xu Huai said.
I advocated that I was demoted to Chushan because of this. The Khitan people are aware of all this situation. After all, I am a person who speaks lightly and cannot win people's trust. But if Mr. Zhu Hang comes forward, I should be more sure. Of course, no matter what,
How much impact this matter will have on Lord Zhu Han's reputation depends on whether Lord Zhu Han is willing to make this sacrifice for many innocent soldiers! Or, whether Lord Zhu Han can bear to see 40,000
The soldiers were abandoned by Ge Huaicong's incompetence? Of course, Mr. Zhu Hang, you must think clearly. Once Ge Huaicong decides to flee across the city, even if he is kidnapped, he will definitely kidnap you and take the blame!"
"What do I, Zhu Hang, mean?" Zhu Hang smiled miserably and said, "How could Xiao Linshi open his eyes just because of my words? If that were the case, how would he treat his subordinates and the Khitan court?
Explain? It’s impossible for him to throw away the great achievements he has so easily because of Zhu’s words, right?”
Xu Huai said: "Of course it won't be limited to this."
"What's your plan?" Zhu Hang asked.
"I have to ask Mr. Zhu Hang first if he has this determination!" Xu Huai said.
"I will not surrender to the enemy. If you want to survive, you can just use my body to surrender to the enemy. I will not resent you - this battle
The defeat is not your fault," Zhu Hang stood up, stood in front of the window with his hands behind his hands, looked at the snow falling more and more in the yard, and said, "But I am not a rigid person. I really want to be able to make thousands of people
I am being criticized for living, but this is not a big grievance!"
"Mr. Zhu Hang, please follow me to the courtyard!" Xu Huai stood up and asked Zhu Hang to walk to the courtyard with him.
Zhu Hang walked into the courtyard and saw heavy snow falling all around. He didn't understand what Xu Huai wanted to do.
"Look there!" Xu Huai motioned to the left and right to light the torches and then climbed up the courtyard wall. However, there was a sloping ramp next to the north wall, appearing behind the courtyard.
"When did you build this road to the city?" Zhu Hang asked dumbfounded.
"In Kelan City, Prime Minister Wang Zhen went to see Ge Boyi to advise him to restrain military discipline. He also pointed out that the intensification of conflicts between Han and Tibet and forcing the Cao brothers to kill Tibet to prove their intentions would only be exploited by the enemy, but unfortunately no one could listen.
Just a few words - we concluded at that time that this battle would be defeated, and there could be no luck," Xu Huai said, "Wang Fanlang asked me to escort Zhu Hanlang to the north, and I can't let Wang Zhen down.
My husband, Mr. Wang Fanlang, trusted me, so I had no choice but to bite the bullet and wade into this muddy water. Of course, we made some preparations at that time to escort Mr. Zhu Hanlang back south if something went wrong. We prepared a lot of tools in advance, and after entering the city, we
We secretly demolished the house and collected materials, but it didn't take much effort to build this climbing road - if we had more time, it wouldn't be a problem for us to dig a tunnel, but the most critical issue now is how to make good use of this climbing road.
Save more people..."
"How to use it?" Zhu Hang had no idea that Xu Huai had secretly escaped from the city when he entered the city. How could he guess Xu Huai's plan in a short time?
"Ge Huaicong must leave, but if Ge Huaicong temporarily hides the news and leaves from here, at least the army will not collapse immediately!" Xu Huai said, "In addition to this climbing road, we have also prepared dozens of aerial ladders and rope ladders in the city.
At the same time, more than 30 houses on the left and right were demolished to temporarily allow thousands of people to come in - that is to say, as long as careful arrangements are made, Ge Huaicong can at least calmly lead thousands of elites out of the city from here! This is better than Ge Huaicong leaving the city in full view of the public.
, it’s better to cause the entire army to collapse immediately!”
"It is indeed better than just a hundred people escaping!" Zhu Hang had to admit.
"Yes," Xu Huai said, "However, Zhu Langjun had to change his attitude in front of Ge Huaicong. Not only could he no longer oppose their escape fiercely, but he also had to persuade them to escape from here. He also had to admit that this road to the city was Zhu's
Zhu Langjun ordered us to create it in secret - if this matter spreads, Zhu Langjun will definitely be criticized when he returns to the court in the future!"
"The situation is like this. I have been criticized for it, but I can bear it!" Zhu Hang said, "The key is that you are not limited to it!"
"If Ge Huaicong and the others only lead a hundred or even ten people to escape, Xiao Linshi will not pay attention to him at all, and will only focus on eating up the 40,000 abandoned soldiers in the city," Xu Huai said, "We tried every means to make Ge Huaicong
The purpose of leading thousands of reorganized elites to flee westward is to use them to attract the enemy's attention! Xiao Linshi doesn't have many troops that can really be used to outflank and pursue in the snow at this time. Once they are all attracted by Ge Huaicong, we can use
The only hundred men and horses in hand protect the flanks and cover more soldiers to escape from the city to Wuzhou Mountain in the north! As long as we escape into Wuzhou Mountain, even if Xiao Linshi cannot understand that we have no intention of being an enemy of the Khitan, we should be able to do so in the end.
Half of the troops escaped back to Lanzhou alive..."[]
