Chapter 322 Fake Attack
The genius was bright, and all the soldiers and officers gathered around Murong Shaozong held their breaths.

It was the middle of winter, but many people were so nervous that their palms were full of sweat. Everyone knew what kind of big event they would do next.

Of course, after eating rice grains from the Western Wei Dynasty for three years, some people justified themselves in their hearts: Yu Wentai expelled them from the barracks before the battle, and clearly did not treat them as his own soldiers, so how can they be blamed for rebellion.

The morning bell above Zicheng City rang, and everyone turned their eyes to Murong Shaozong. This was the signal they had agreed upon.

Murong Shaozong said in a deep voice:
"Lead your own troops, go to the arsenal in Zicheng, and follow me to seize the weapons!"

As soon as the order was issued, all the officers agreed one after another, and filed out.

The surrendered soldiers gathered in the city and followed Murong Shaozong straight to the arsenal. Hearing the news, the guard of Chang'an City who led the defenders came to resist, and angrily rebuked the surrendered soldiers:
"In the past three years, the Prime Minister has never wronged you, why did he do such an unjust thing today!"

Many soldiers showed shame, after all, Yuwentai had not treated them harshly, the Six Towns Township Party, after eating rice grains for three years in the Western Wei Dynasty.

The person who excused himself before threatened to say:
"Yu Wentai expelled us before the battle, so he regarded us as outsiders. If so, what's wrong with us returning to the Eastern Army!"

The guard wanted to reason a few more words, but there was a sound of piercing through the air, and the off-string arrow pierced his throat.

Murong Shaozong put down his strong bow and shouted loudly to the defenders:

"Yu Wentai was defeated and died on the front line. Gao's 20 troops are marching towards Chang'an. If you don't surrender at this time, when will you wait!"

These big soldiers don't know what the battle situation on the front line looks like. Being so frightened by Murong Shaozong, they really thought that the Western Wei army was defeated on the front line and fled away one after another. Xiazicheng.

After leaving thousands of people to guard, Murong Shaozong quickly led the army to Chang'an, but it was still a step too late. Taiwei Wangmeng, Pushe Zhou Huida and others had already heard the news and closed the city to defend themselves.

Murong Shaozong gave up capturing Chang'an in the absence of siege equipment. He followed Gao Cheng's instructions and immediately wreak havoc around Chang'an.

Previously, Dou Tai led the army to publicize that there was no crime with Minqiu, but at this time it has become empty talk.

Of course, Gao Cheng would make amends afterwards: what did the Western Wei rebels have to do with him in the Eastern Wei? He had to be reasonable in everything, and he couldn't use the rules of the Eastern Wei to restrain the rebels in the Western Wei.

This group of soldiers who have been trapped in Guanzhong for three years may not be as effective as in the past, but they are still good at wreaking havoc.

Wang Meng, Zhou Huida and others who stayed in Chang'an stood on the city wall, watching the fires outside the city, crying and shouting endlessly, but they were cold-hearted and refused to go out of the city to rescue them.

No one knows how many rebels are outside the city now, rushing out of the city to fight. Once they lose, Chang'an will be captured by them. No one can bear the responsibility.

As for the news that the rebels spread the news that Yu Wentai was defeated and died on the front line, they could only scare the ignorant big-headed soldiers, but they could not deceive them. And others know nothing.

"Did the Taiwei ever order the messenger to keep it secret and only tell the prime minister?"

Zhou Huida asked Taiwei Wangmeng, he was also worried that the news of the chaos in the rear would spread to the frontline army and shake the morale of the army.

Wang Meng is also a man who knows the soldiers, he comforted him:
"Pu She, please rest assured, Meng has already explained."

If the army of the Eastern Wei Dynasty had never entered the customs, perhaps the two of them would immediately lead the emperor and Yuwentai's family members out of Tunlong Mountain or Weibei to avoid the rebels. Can quell rebellion.

But the situation is different now. The army of the Eastern Wei Dynasty entered the pass and was in a stalemate with Yu Wentai in the Weishui River. If they fled, news of the fall of Chang'an would spread to the army, and chaos would inevitably arise.

While the two were looking into the distance on the city wall, another messenger boarded the city wall to inform the news of Xianyang's fall.

But at this time they didn't care about Xianyang, Zhou Huida and Wang Meng made a plan, and immediately ordered to recruit young men from Chang'an City to assist in defending the city.

However, Murong Shaozong saw that the surprise attack was not successful, so he had no idea of ​​attacking Chang'an City for a long time.

He led a group of rebels and coerced people all the way to the east to attack the place. He wanted to force the people to flee eastward. It would be better to go to the Yuwentai army and cry about their atrocities, and bring the news of the turmoil in Guanzhong to the front. This is the purpose of Gao Cheng's instigation of the rebellion.

Yu Wentai learned the news on the second day, and the letter entrusted Wang Meng's order, and kept his mouth shut all the way. He didn't tell the news of the surrender and rebellion until he met Yu Wentai. Yu Wentai immediately raised his account and called the generals to discuss.

Hearing that the soldiers occupied Zicheng to cause chaos, all the generals were in an uproar, and they all said that Yu Wentai would return to the army to rescue, rely on Chang'an to strengthen the city, and deal with the Eastern Wei Dynasty.

But was flatly rejected by Yu Wentai, he said:
"No, for the current plan, we should fight Gao's quickly."

Zhao Gui was puzzled and said:
"The eastern bandit sticks to his camp and can't get out, so how can we fight against him?"

Yu Wentai pulled out his sword, pointed at the map, gritted his teeth and said:
"If you attack, you will be saved."

Everyone looked towards where the sword pointed, but it was Pu Ban.

Yu Wentai seems to be thinking about changing his home. Puban is related to the retreat of the Eastern Wei army. If he occupies Puban, he can go east through the pontoon bridge. Just being a bandit who burns, kills and loots can turn most of the Kanto region into scorched earth.

Not to mention the 20 Bingzhou Hu west expedition, and Hedong fell into an unprecedented emptiness. Once the river was crossed, the pontoon bridge was burned, and Hedong was captured, and because the [-] troops from Hebei went south to help defend Henan, they could also take advantage of the situation to take Hebei.

As for the family members stranded in Chang'an, they can't take care of them at this time, and it's not that no one has been a prisoner of the Gao family.

What's more, Yu Wentai's move is not really to go east, but to force the Eastern Wei to fight him. If the Gao family and his son really only have Kansai in their eyes, Yu Wentai really doesn't mind switching with the other party.

Exchange a dilapidated land of Guanlong for the rich Hedong and Hebei, this deal can be done.

As for the issue of food, as the necessary place for logistics transfer in the Eastern Wei Dynasty, Puban soldiers did not lack food, not to mention that after crossing the river, countless city treasuries were waiting for them to get it.

The decision to go to Puban was quickly passed among the generals of the Western Wei Dynasty. With the chaos in the rear and the front line in a dilemma, this was indeed the only way to force the Eastern Wei Dynasty to fight it.

All the generals resigned one after another and returned to the army to prepare for the eastward march. Yu Wentai called Xiao Ji again, and he did not hide the truth from the other party, telling the truth about his plan to attack the enemy and save him.

Now that there is chaos in Chang'an and the way back is blocked, Xiao Ji also knows that only by defeating the Eastern Wei Dynasty with Yu Wentai on the frontal battlefield will he have a chance of survival, so he agreed to follow him on the spot to attack Puban and fight Gao's decisive battle.

 I haven't had a good rest in the past few days. I go to work during the day, code at night, and code all night, so I overslept today. Of course, these are also excuses.First write down a 200 red envelope, NO.12 issued, and then this month is still the goal of 21 words, if not achieved, then 12 will be issued on the 1000th, as promised before, although updates are often given, but red envelopes have never been given.

  There is still before twelve o'clock in the evening. I will resign next week and devote myself to writing. Of course, the most important thing is that the part-time job is too much for my health.
