Riding and cutting the imperial pirates of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 86

Are you bluffing me?

Hearing that Xu He directly exaggerated the overall number of Linzi a lot, especially the number of cavalry has increased several times.

Wang Zheng glanced at the other party casually, thinking secretly.

What is the purpose of this move?

On the surface, they are very cooperative, showing the behavior that an ignorant person should have.

"How come there are so many soldiers and horses?" He exclaimed, then rushed over with a face full of astonishment, tightly grasping Xu He's wrist:
"General Xu, take this seriously."

Hiss, this guy has a lot of strength.

"How can I talk nonsense about such an important matter." Xu He slowly pulled out his hand while enduring the pain, and said solemnly: "It is precisely because of the urgency of the situation that I have traveled here day and night in person to inform General Tiangong."

"Grand Xu's kindness!"

Hearing this, Wang Zheng seemed to be very moved, and even the address became much more cordial.

"I was young and inexperienced, and I was shocked and at a loss when I suddenly encountered a crisis."

Wang Zheng's face changed for a while, and he seemed to be unable to think of a way. He looked at Xu Sheng, asking for help:

"Since Xu Gong is willing to come here to report the news, it can be seen that he will not stand idly by." After finishing speaking, he bowed his hands and said sincerely:
"I wonder if there is any way?"

I've been waiting for your words for a long time!
"General Tiangong," Xu He was overjoyed, coughed a few times, and said slowly: "I would like to ask a question first."

"How many young and strong fighters are there in the general's team?"

"There are about five to six thousand young and strong people." Wang Zheng thought for a while and said, "But under my preaching, everyone in the city now sincerely worships Huang Tian."

"If you can fight, these 3 people will die for me and die for the Tao!"

How dare you brag.

You have only taken Guangrao for a few days, and you can kill everyone?
Xu He didn't want to refute it bluntly, so as not to anger the other party, he just laughed a few times:

"General Tiangong, we are also our own family, so I will be blunt."

"Of course." Wang Zheng nodded: "Grand Xu, but it's okay to say, I'm all ears."

"Compared with the officers and soldiers, our Yellow Turban Army still has a gap in combat strength. Just as you said." Xu He said with a bit of a toothache: "Now there are [-] combat strength in the county. I'm afraid they may not come here to commit crimes." Ten thousand officers and soldiers are against each other."

"If I use these 3 people to defend the city, is it feasible?" Wang Zheng thought for a while and asked:
"Occupying a good location can also make up for the gap in combat power."

"Guangrao is a county seat, what geographical advantage can it rely on?" Xu He shook his head:

"There is a saying in the art of war, if the enemy is completely victorious, if I cannot fight, there are only three things: I must surrender; I must make peace; I must leave."

"If you surrender, you will lose all, if you draw, you will lose half, and if you leave, you will not be defeated. Those who are not defeated will have a turning point in victory."

Having said that, Xu He paused, looked at Wang Zheng, and said the so-called clever plan:

"In my opinion, it's better for the general to leave before the officers and soldiers arrive."

"Walking is the best policy?" Wang Zheng glanced at Xu He, sneered in his heart, and had already guessed the other party's intention.

On the face, he took advantage of the situation and showed a helpless wry smile, and said astringently:

"But Mr. Xu, where can I go?"

"According to what you said, there are thousands of cavalry in this army."

"General, you can divide the troops." Xu He reminded: "You must know that guarding the palace still knows how to cut off the tail to survive."

"Only by saving yourself first can you slowly make a comeback."

The last sentence seemed to have moved Wang Zheng, and he fell into a long test without saying a word.

At this time, Huo Shi happened to come in with tea.

At the beginning of the Tianjun uprising, there was nothing special about it. If there were such meetings, she would often do the work of a maidservant.

After seeing Tu Qiong, Xu He became unhurried.

After talking for a long time, he also felt his mouth was dry, so he walked to the square table and drank some tea. When he caught sight of Huo Shi, his eyes flashed with surprise.

This vertical child is not shallow.

While feeling emotional in his heart, he looked at Wang Zheng who seemed to be still thinking hard, showing a confident expression.

He has already analyzed the pros and cons of the situation to the other party.

Wang Zheng's hesitation at this time, in Xu He's view, was not because he was indecisive.

I'm afraid it's because young people want to save face, and they don't want to show their covetous life and fear of death in front of their subordinates.

Xu He was in no rush about this, and waited calmly.

He believes that the other party will eventually choose the path that is most beneficial to his family.

"Mr. Xu," Wang Zheng looked up at Xu He, "I've thought it through."

"The general sees clearly and is very decisive"

Xu He nodded with a smile, and was about to say a few words of flattery when Wang Zheng continued:

"I was ordered by Huang Tian to revolt only to defeat innocent people and establish a heavenly kingdom on earth. How can I retreat when I encounter a strong enemy and abandon the people?"

"Don't flee, don't surrender, don't make peace," Wang Zheng said with a dignified righteousness, every word clanging:
"Since you can't keep it, then don't keep it."

"I've made up my mind, I'll raise the army tomorrow, and go out of the city to fight with the Qi County officials!"

"Even if you die, you have to die vigorously!"

Snapped!
These words startled Xu He into a state of trance.

He couldn't hold it firmly in his hand, and the teacup fell directly to the ground.

The splashing soup wet his clothes and shoes, but Xu He didn't notice it, he just stared blankly at Wang Zheng, opened and closed his mouth a few times, unable to utter a single word.

He thought about countless possible answers, but he never expected that the other party would say these words.

Looking at the youthful expression on the young man's face, he seemed to feel that what he said was full of pride.

Xu Fang felt very stupid.

By Huang Tian's will?vigorous?

Is your kid acting like a magic stick or a fool?
Zhang Jiao was not as reckless as you back then?
At this time, the Linzi pacification army had just rushed to the vicinity of the Zihe River, and chose a high ground to set up camp.

The red clouds in the sky are brilliant and gorgeous, it is the time when the setting sun and the bright moon meet, the eve of night.

On this day, under the urging of Dong Lin and the pull of greed, the team had already traveled nearly eighty miles.

This kind of marching speed is already quite fast for a troop composed of city defense garrisons and powerful family generals.

But in the eyes of Dong Lin, who was eager to put down the chaos, he was still not satisfied.

It's just that the sky is getting dark, but night travel is definitely not something such troops can do.

In desperation, Dong Lin could only let the troops rest here.

Inside the big tent.

After staring at the map on the military case for a long time, the Qi County lieutenant fell into deep thought.

According to the current progress, it will take five days to reach the foot of Bauhinia Mountain
It is very close to Guangrao from Zijing Mountain.

It doesn't take half a day to reach the city!

In his mind, he reviewed the marching route and strategic deployment that he had made before, and Dong Lin had a general grasp in his mind.

Now he doesn't worry about anything else, but he is afraid that the thieves may flee after receiving the news
That means that in order to completely quell the chaos, it will take more time and energy, as well as the consumption of all aspects of the army.

Before arriving at Bauhinia Mountain, you must not let the wind leak!
Thinking of this, he loudly called out the guards outside the tent:

"Pass down the order. Tomorrow the sentinels will be scattered all around. Anyone who passes by the army, regardless of their status, will be captured!"

"Before reaching Bauhinia Mountain, the army marches out at full speed every day, and then the whole army rests for a day, and goes straight to Guangrao!"

"promise!"
