The Reborn Lao Tzu Is the Emperor

Chapter 266
Throughout the afternoon, the Yuan army did not attack the city again, so they camped outside the city to rest.

At night, a carrier pigeon suddenly jumped up in the night sky in the Tianwei army garrison in Wuzhou city, and then quickly disappeared into the night sky.

In the deep night, no one could see the carrier pigeon.Even if I saw it, I'm afraid I wouldn't take it seriously.

Carrier pigeons are very common in this era, not only in the military, but even civilians often use carrier pigeons to communicate.Homing pigeons have an excellent sense of direction and can distinguish directions by feeling magnetism and dimensions, and can often fly back to their nests without fail thousands of miles away.

This flying carrier pigeon was sent secretly to the Tianwei army when Ye Su'er's army was still stationed at Linhe Mansion in Hezhou in the north of Wuzhou.At that time, she hadn't spoken to Yang Fan yet, and these pigeons were being raised by the captain who was first bribed by her.The commander's surname is Yuan, and his name is Yuanwuqi.

Yuanwuqi is also a rebel army, and originally raised the banner on Jinghu North Road.As for how he was bought by Ye Su'er, there is no way to know.

And after he persuaded Yang Fan, he also handed over all these pigeons to Yang Fan, and handed them over to the pigeon house in the Tianwei Army to raise them.Most of the generals in the Tianwei Army were Yang Fan's people, and no one knew that these pigeons were kept together with the pigeons used to communicate with the cities in the Southern Song Dynasty.

These pigeons were used by Yang Fan to reply to Ye Su'er.

And Ye Su'er, apart from the occasional message sent by someone, has never used carrier pigeons to send messages.

Carrier pigeons are still not as convenient as mobile phones.

It can identify the direction, but it can only fly back to its old nest.In other words, if you want to send a letter from place A to place B, the carrier pigeon must be brought out from place A.The Tianwei army followed Wen Tianxiang around, and it was obviously impossible for Ye Suer to get the pigeons in every city and establish a contact point with Yang Fan in every city.Therefore, it is much more convenient for people to send letters.

The carrier pigeon that Yang Fan delivered the letter would only fly back to Linhe Mansion.As for Linhe Mansion, there is obviously still some distance between it and Wuzhou City.

That night, the homing pigeon quickly flew to a certain house in Linhe Mansion.Then, a fast horse in the house quickly left the city.

This private house is naturally the contact point for the Yuan army to stay in Linhe Mansion.

If someone goes in, they will definitely find that there are a lot of carrier pigeons in this house.

After the fast horse left the city, it went directly south to Wuzhou.

On the official road, the sound of horseshoes hurried.Even this night, it couldn't stop the eagerness of the knight on horseback.

He didn't dare to read the contents of the letter sent from the Tianwei Army this time, but it must be related to Wuzhou City, so he must report it to Marshal Ye Su'er as soon as possible.

After twenty miles in this way, there was a resting horse pavilion, so he stopped to take a rest.

After passing two resting horse pavilions in succession, there will be a post station.

The knight on the horse stops at the post station, and then when the horse rushes out of the post station, it is already a different horse and knight.

The ancient military emergency report, which traveled [-] times a day and [-] times at night, ran out with the support of these horse resting pavilions and post stations.If it is a single horse, it is impossible to travel six hundred at night.Not to mention whether the knight on the horse can withstand that kind of bump, anyway, the horse can't stand it.

Sunrise, sunset, and nightfall.

Finally, a fast horse came to the Deyuan army and quickly approached the army.

During this period of time, although the Yuan army attacked the city, it was only a small test.

This made Zhang Jue a little puzzled.

Could it be that the Yuan army intends to map it slowly?
But in the current battle situation, they should be more urgent than the Song army. How can they delay?
He felt a little uneasy, and discussed this matter with Wen Tianxiang.However, neither of them could figure out what was going on.

No one would easily suspect that someone in his army had rebelled, especially those soldiers who came to King Qin.Since they came to King Qin, their position should be firm.

Outside the city, a quick horse arrived outside Ye Su'er's barracks, but was stopped by soldiers.

He got off his horse with a dusty face, and said, "There is an urgent military report, take me to see the marshal immediately."

He is already the No.13 wave knight who has changed on the road.

The soldiers guarding the gate of the camp did not dare to neglect, and hurriedly led him on horseback to the formation of the Chinese army.

Since it is an urgent military report, it naturally has special treatment.

Not long after, they arrived outside the tent of Deyesuer.

At this time, Ye Su'er had already gone to bed, but there were hundreds of soldiers guarding him outside the tent.

Even the soldiers guarding the camp gate were stopped.

Ye Su'er's personal guard general asked in a deep voice, "Why are you in such a hurry?"

The knight delivering the letter hastily got off his horse, ran up to him, and handed over the letter, "There is an urgent report from Linhe Mansion, please pass it on to the Marshal."

The commander of the personal guards took the letter wrapped in a small bamboo tube, and he didn't dare to neglect, and hurriedly turned back and ran to the tent.Kneeling outside the camp, "Marshal, there is an urgent message from Linhe Mansion."

Ye Su'er, who was sleeping soundly in the tent, was awakened by his shout, but sat up suddenly, then rubbed her eyes, and said to the maid serving by the bed, "Hurry up and bring in the letter."

The maid hurriedly ran outside.

Ye Su'er put on a big cloak and got out of bed, and sat down at the table.

The maid brought the letter in and put it on the table respectfully.

Ye Su'er took out the letter from the small bamboo tube, first looked at the ink pad on it, there was no trace of being opened, and then opened the letter to look.

"After reading the letter, attack the city at night. I will create chaos in Wuzhou City."

Signed: The scenery of mountains and rivers is the same.

This is the code for Ye Suer and Yang Fan to communicate.

And this poem is taken from Jinling Station.It just so happened that this poem was written by Wen Tianxiang.

This can also be said to be ulterior motives.

If someone intercepted this letter, they might also suspect Wen Tianxiang, right?

The scenery of mountains and rivers is no different, and the people of the city are half of them.

Wen Tianxiang probably never imagined that the poems he wrote would be used by the enemy as a code for communication.

After Ye Su'er saw the signature, she knew that it must be Yang Fan's handwritten letter, and a slightly excited look appeared on her slightly tired face.

For the past two days, she and Boyan were just pretending to attack the city, just waiting for this moment.Wait for Yang Fan to give her a clear answer.

Siege at night...

A smile formed on the corner of Ye Su'er's mouth.Although she was tanned in the army, her facial features are extremely clear, and she is still pretty at this age.

She used to be the queen of Meng Ge, and she was full of nobility and coercion, which gave her a very special temperament.

Lying back on the bed again, Ye Su'er's head was still filled with the contents of the text message, and she was so excited that she couldn't sleep.

Before the sky was completely bright, she got up, and then took her personal guards to the Boyan Army barracks on the east side of Wuzhou City.

After Boyan saw her, he immediately asked excitedly, "Is there any news from Wuzhou City?"

He was undoubtedly waiting for this moment too.He also knew that Ye Su'er would never have left the camp easily if it hadn't been for this major event.

Sure enough, Ye Su'er nodded, walked to Boyan's big tent, and handed the letter to Boyan when passing by Boyan.

Boyan took the letter and read it as he walked. After a few steps, he couldn't help laughing.

Sitting down in the tent, he asked with a smile, "When is the deputy commander planning to attack the city?"

Ye Su'er said, "What does the Marshal think?"

Then both of them smiled and said almost at the same time: "Of course, the sooner the better."

Boyan slapped the desk heavily with his palm, "Okay, then let's attack the city at Haishi tonight."

"it is good."

Ye quickly nodded.

Neither of them were indecisive.When attacking the city at Haishi, if Yang Fan cooperates well, he might be able to take Wuzhou by tomorrow morning.

After discussing the matter, Ye Su'er, who looked majestic in armor, left Boyan's camp in a hurry and returned to his own camp.

During the day, the Yuan army cooked meals as usual, and did not show the slightest abnormality.

But as soon as it got dark, the soldiers in the camp were all gathered by the generals.Then they went out of the camp in groups.

It's time to attack the city again.

The soldiers of the Yuan army who were more thoughtful and clever found that something was wrong, and saw that the coach was going to be serious this time.

In the past two days, which time have so many soldiers and horses been dispatched to attack the city?
This time, only a few thousand defenders were left in the barracks.

On the watchtower at the head of Wuzhou city, the sentinels with binoculars staring at the Yuan army's camp all the time quickly noticed the movement of the Yuan army.Immediately, a horn sounded abruptly.

Most of the soldiers in the city had already rested, and when they heard the sound of the high-pitched horn, they all jumped up in shock.

Orders and prohibitions, after Zhao Dongting came to power, he attached great importance to military discipline in the army.Even the later military horses did not dare to neglect.

The tents of Wen Tianxiang and Zhang Jue were close to each other, and within tens of seconds of the sound of the horn, both of them ran out of the tent in a hurry.

Both of them were wearing armor, which was extremely neat.Apparently, they didn't even take off their armor when they slept.

The fact that they didn't get rid of their helmets at night fully showed how cautious the two of them were regarding this battle.
