Brother Wanfu

Chapter 106 Another Wing

Nan Chengjun.

Jiang Shan dreamed at night, dreaming that the West City Gate was crumbling. Even if the news was blocked and strengthened as much as possible, this hidden danger made him unable to sleep peacefully.

He secretly hoped that the officers and soldiers of the imperial court would give him half a month to strengthen the city wall, but things turned out to be counterproductive. In less than five days, the imperial soldiers and horses went south again, heading straight for the main city.

And the five tiger generals even transferred the main force to the west gate, just to attack the damaged area.

Jiang Shan watched the army under the city wall rushing towards the west gate, his feet froze.

It's no wonder that he is the five tiger generals of the Shen family army!

*
Tang Ting tent.

The young guard looked at the general still frowning.

"The general had previously discovered that the west gate of the main city of the Nancheng Army was unstable. The last time special troops entered the palace's west gate, our scouts inquired about the news, and Dao Na Jiang Shan really blocked the west gate and reinforced it in a concealed manner. General The battle was over without giving them time, and the subordinates expected that they would be able to take it at night at the longest, why is the general still frowning?"

Tang Ting encouraged the young guards to ask questions if they didn't understand, but Tang Ting didn't answer the guards' questions this time.

He asked back.

"If you were Jiang Shan, your west city gate was damaged, and you blocked the news, but would you think that the news could not be blocked, and you would still be detected by the court? What should you do in this situation?"

The guard thought for a while and realized what was wrong, "If you don't block it, you will tell the enemy the weakness."

When he said this, Tang Ting nodded, and the guard continued after seeing this.

"If I were Jiang Shan, I would have to arrange a second move. So the general is guessing, Jiang Shan still has a second move?"

When the voice fell to the ground, I heard the general "hmm".

"It's not a guess, it's a determination."

The guard couldn't help being startled, "Isn't it rumored that Jiang Shan is just a reckless man? Can you really think so much?"

Tang Ting snorted softly, "Even if he is a reckless man, after fighting so many battles, he has also developed some skills in planning. If not, why hasn't the Nancheng Army been captured by the court?"

Hearing this, the guards were a little skeptical, but at this moment, there was an urgent report from outside.

"General, there is another group of troops from the Nancheng Army hiding outside the city. At this moment, they are heading straight for the officers and soldiers attacking the west city gate. There is a tendency to attack and destroy them!"

The guard was terrified when he heard that.

Sure enough, the general was right. A reckless man like Jiang Shan may have made plans.

"The general wants to send troops to support immediately?"

Tang Ting shook his head, "It's too late now. I've already arranged another manpower."

The guard breathed a sigh of relief in this response.

"The general is actually ahead of him, so I can rest assured now."

But when he looked up, he saw that the general who counted every step was still frowning tightly.

"Why are you still so worried?"

The guards were really puzzled, but Tang Ting took a deep breath and let out a long sigh.

He suddenly laughed.

"The battlefield is ever-changing, and all I can count is the few steps in front of me. If Jiang Shan is really a reckless man, why should I not be able to take him down? But right now, it seems that he is not the generation of Yi Xiang, which is far from the rumors. Quite far, facing such a person, is it easy for us to win this battle? If we can't win, what do you think will happen?"

This time, the general resolutely stopped using his wounded and disabled troops as the main force of the charge, and for the first time took troops from several generals in a strong tone.

This also means that he has to win if he wins, and he has to win if he doesn't win.

Once he loses, all the crimes will intensify on him.

"General." The guard frowned when he understood.

This time, it was Tang Ting who persuaded him.

"It's useless for us to be anxious again. Maybe we can make a quick decision and withdraw our troops after the fight."

As Tang Ting said, he looked towards Gao Kuo Han Tian outside the tent.

He didn't say the rest of the sentence——

If you can't make a quick decision, but fall into a fierce battle, it will be completely unpredictable who will win this battle.

But even if one side finally complied, the number of casualties far exceeded expectations.

And this is not counting the fact that the Suzheng Army in the north sent troops to assist the Nancheng Army.

But will the imperial court give him a support army?

Tang Ting's heart felt uncomfortable, the more he looked at the vast sky, the more he felt like falling into a cold abyss, extremely powerless.

Whether it is the imperial court soldiers or the Nancheng army defending the city, they are all looking forward to a quick battle.

Even if they are unwilling to lose this battle, the result is that they have fallen into an uncontrollable stalemate. The soldiers and horses on both sides seem to have fallen into a quagmire. Deeper and deeper.

News also came from the neighboring cities that the imperial court had raided other cities again, and the boss of the Jiang family was injured and could no longer go into battle.

Jiang Shan can only let the second brother go to the battlefield with injuries to support the boss.

Jiang Mu also followed, but not long after they went out, they were stopped and returned. One was more seriously injured, and the other was shot down, almost unconscious.

When Jiang Shan saw his two sons covered in blood, his chest was completely on fire. He wished he could go out of the city immediately and fight to the death with the soldiers and horses of the court.

But at this moment, Jiang Mu, who was lying on the couch bleeding, suddenly grabbed the hem of his clothes.

"father"

"What happened to my son?!"

Jiang Mu opened his mouth with difficulty.

"Father, if this continues, everyone will die."

The soldiers of the imperial court will die, and the soldiers of the Nancheng Army will also die.

He said, "Why don't you find Su Zhengjun!"

After saying this, he fell into a coma.

The second child didn't have time to scold him, and called "brother" to grab Jiang Mu's hand, but Jiang Mu's eyes were closed tightly, and it was uncertain whether he could wake up.

Instead, Jiang Shan's feet swayed.

The sound of shouting and killing outside was as continuous as autumn rain, which kept falling and could not stop.

Looking for Suzhengjun is almost tantamount to submitting to surrender.

How could it be possible for the Suzheng army to only send troops to help, but not ask for the city?

The city that the Nancheng army forcibly defended under the imperial court's offensive was handed over to the Suzheng army.

But if not, they would have died under the iron cavalry of the imperial court.

"Father, do you really want to find Su Zhengjun?" The second child couldn't help asking.

Jiang Shan closed his eyes.

"Father and son, is there any other choice?"

*
A troop of galloping cavalry came out of Nancheng Army City and headed northward. The number was small, but the court failed to stop them.

Tang Ting knew it was not good when he heard it.

"It seems that the Suzheng Army is about to attack."

He had expected that once he fell into a stalemate and fierce battle, the Nancheng Army might ask the Suzheng Army, who was also an anti-army, to help him at a critical moment, so he also applied for reinforcements from several generals early on to support him and speed up the siege .

But Suzheng's army remained silent, and neither did the court's reinforcements, as if until the last moment, they would just watch Tang Ting struggling alone in the swamp with his men and horses.

With the news this time, Tang Ting once again sent someone to send a letter to the general, asking for immediate support, without delay.

Who wants to send the guards to go back and forth, but only bring back the word "wait".

"Several chief generals said that if the Suzheng Army really deploys troops to support the Nancheng Army, they will take the opportunity to fight the Suzheng Army and repel the Suzheng Army's troops, so they cannot send troops to support."

After saying this, Tang Ting almost sneered.

If the Suzheng army was repelled by the court so easily, is it still the Suzheng army?Why do they need to improve the morale of officers and soldiers by suppressing the South into the army?
"A bunch of gangsters!" Tang Ting finally couldn't help cursing.

It is these gangsters who make the court have no soldiers to use, and have been defeated repeatedly. And these people, aren't they all promoted after the current emperor ascended the throne?

When the first emperor and the first crown prince were around, it was not like this in the court army!
At this moment, Tang Ting almost wanted to quit the business, for such an emperor, in such an army, what would he sacrifice his life for?

But what if he put down the stall, his wife and children who are eagerly looking forward to, and his relatives and friends who have helped a lot?
Does he still have the ability to take these people away from the imperial court?

He is neither Nancheng Army nor Suzheng Army, just a down-and-out general of the imperial court, who wouldn't even believe anyone who joined the enemy?

There is no other way to go, so we can only continue to fight like this?

Hit until the last soldier falls, hit him and fall too, right?
Tang Ting fell into an unprecedented bewilderment, looking at the pitch-black tent, he felt that the world was spinning and he had nowhere to stand.

"How to do how to do."

Tang Ting's feet shook, and suddenly he heard the guards running in.

"General!" the guard called out to him.

"Is there any reinforcements?" Tang Ting was still holding on to his last hope.

But the guard shook his head mercilessly.

"No, there are no reinforcements."

Tang Ting's heart sank, but he heard the guard say another sentence.

"There are two people outside who said they hope to offer advice to the general to get rid of the current predicament."

Tang Ting was surprised, "Where did they come from?"

The guard said, "Those two people don't know their origins, but one claims to be surnamed Shen, and the other is surnamed Bai."

Tang Ting's heart skipped a beat, he knew who it was, but why did they come here at this time?

If it was before, Tang Ting might implicate himself and his relatives and friends, and he probably wouldn't see each other.

But this time, he hesitated a little and met those two people.

"Leading the army to rebel? Is this your plan to break through?"

Tang Ting glanced at Shen Xiao and shook his head in disappointment.

"Ah Xiao really thinks things too simply. I think you didn't take what I reminded you last time to heart. If that's the case, you probably don't have the quality of a general to lead an army in battle."

These words were extremely serious, but at this time, Tang Ting, who was in the quagmire, was no longer in the mood to think about words.

But Shen Xiao was not shocked by these words.

She glanced at Tang Ting and asked him a question.

"So in the current situation, Uncle Tang still has a way to protect his soldiers and horses, right?"

Tang Ting didn't expect her to ask so sharply suddenly, he was silent for a while.

"I don't have the ability to protect them anymore, but killing my own head is better than implicating my family and friends, right?"

He couldn't help asking Shen Xiao and Bai Chen.

"Do you know that rebellion is not a joke. Look at the Jiang and his sons in the Nancheng Army. Even if I can't win them, they can't last long. Not everyone has the ability of the Suzheng Army. "

But after Tang Ting finished speaking, Bai Chen suddenly asked him with a smile.

"If that's the case, how about we join the Suzheng Army?"

Tang Ting was taken aback, then shook his head again.

"Even if you join the Suzheng Army, it doesn't matter if you are in the Suzheng Army. There is no guide. Does the Suzheng Army really believe in it? Will it be reused? Don't end up displeased by both sides!"

"Tsk!" Bai Chen snorted.

Tang Ting didn't know what he was laughing at, but Shen Xiao who was beside him also smiled.

At this moment, Shen Xiao said something.

"Uncle Tang doesn't need to worry about this matter. As long as Uncle Tang is willing to lead his troops into the Suzheng Army, no matter whether it is the soldiers under his command or the elders in the family, there will be no harm. I can also guarantee that the Suzheng Army will also Uncle Tang will not be treated separately."

Tang Ting was startled and confused.

"Ah Xiao, do you know what you're talking about?"

"know."

Tang Ting saw that the little girl was not embarrassed or flamboyant, she just opened her mouth as calmly as a mountain.

"Uncle Tang once asked me, if I want to be a general, do I have the ability to protect the robes of my subordinates? Today I can tell Uncle Tang that I can do it. Although I am not as good as my father and brother, I will not let the soldiers be insecure. I will not let the blood of wounded soldiers be shed in vain, will not let those who have made military achievements be suppressed, and will not let them have any worries, I can guarantee all of these."

Tang Ting was stunned.

Looking at the little girl in front of him, Fang knew that she had spoken every word without a single joke, and that serious tone was none other than General Shen who personally taught him to grow into a Five Tiger General.

All of them have been taught by General Shen's precepts and deeds, but this little girl, General Shen's own daughter, spent the shortest time by her father's side, and she received the least advice.

Tang Ting was unable to raise General Shen's daughter and repay the kindness he had cultivated over the years, but today, Shen Xiao was asked to present him with a break.

Tang Ting couldn't say a word of retort.

He looked at Shen Xiao silently, while the little girl waited calmly for his change.

"Can you really?"

This time without Shen Xiao opening his mouth, Bai Chen answered him.

"Yes! Why can't you? There are too many roads that you can't see clearly. Instead of walking on one road with your head bowed, why not just join us and change the road?"

Bai Chen pulled Tang Ting over and told him the current situation.

Tang Ting was shocked, looked at Shen Xiao, and couldn't believe it for a long time.

*
The account of the chief general of the imperial army.

"Is it okay not to send reinforcements to Tang Ting? Will he be wiped out by Nan Cheng's army?" Someone asked.

"That's not so."

General Liu's skills against Tang Ting are still quite good.

"He is a capable person, and he is also a person who knows what he knows. He knows that he can't lose this battle. He will fight until he dies, and he will survive until he wins. Our troops should go to spy on Suzheng who came to support him. Army. We must know that the Suzheng army is supported by such troops in different places, and there is no advantage. We may take the Suzheng army when we are not prepared. If the Suzheng army is taken down, even a small number of people will definitely I will be very happy!"

These words made the tents warm up. Everyone had suffered so many defeats. After Tang Ting contributed to the front line this time, things finally turned around. If they kill another wave of Su Zhengjun at this time, the previous defeats will be wiped out. Not to mention, the following rewards will arrive soon.

Everyone couldn't help discussing how to intercept the reinforcements sent by the Suzheng Army and how to severely injure the Suzheng Army.

After discussing for a long time, General Liu's mouth was dry, but it's a pity that everyone couldn't come up with a unified good idea.

However, the Suzheng army would not come so soon, so General Liu signaled to everyone to discuss it tomorrow.

He returned to his tent, but saw a sneaky visitor.

"Yo, why are you here? Don't guard Heshan Guard, run around?" General Liu glanced at Li Zhuang.

Li Zhuang hurriedly said he didn't dare, and took out a snuff bottle from his sleeve and gave it to him, "A new job from the West, general?"

General Liu took a deep breath, feeling refreshed.

Li Zhuang didn't hide it, saying that he came here in the name of delivering food and grass, since he came, of course he wanted to visit General Liu, and by the way, he asked how his deputy commander, Tang Ting, was doing.

"I heard you won a battle?"

General Liu said yes, "As expected of the Five Tigers."

Li Zhuang's face twitched when he heard this, and he couldn't help guessing in his heart, wouldn't Tang Ting really get tired and promoted because of this?

As soon as he thought about it, he heard General Liu say.

"Those who are capable should contribute more to the front line, so that we can promote him for a while. This time he fought well with the Nancheng Army, and the general Suzheng Army came here. To tell you the truth, our chief generals, Let's compete with Su Zhengjun. You came just in time, do you think there is any good plan?"

General Liu discussed with Li Zhuang.

But Li Zhuang couldn't even defend the Heshan Guard well, so he didn't know how to deal with the Suzheng army. As long as General Liu said it, he would agree with it, and as long as it was General Liu's strategy, he would applaud it all.

General Liu felt at ease after being flattered by him.

Li Zhuang did not forget to say a word.

"The battle with Nan Cheng's army was lost, the general just pushed it on Tang Ting, and responded to the battle with Suzheng's army, that's all thanks to you!"

General Liu didn't know about his thoughts, and more importantly, without his reminding, he just made noise like this.

The two looked at each other and laughed.

But there were hurried footsteps outside, and there was an urgent report from the army.

"Su Zhengjun! Su Zhengjun has appeared!"

The voice came from afar, and as they rushed into the tent, the happy faces of Liu Shi and Li Zhuang instantly froze on their faces.

"How is it possible? How could Su Zhengjun come so soon?"

Both of them stepped out of the tent quickly.

The soldier carrying the letter was running outside the tent, when Liu pulled him over.

"Su Zhengjun is really here? Where are you now? Make it clear!"

The soldier gasped.

"General, the Suzheng Army has really arrived, but it's not the Suzheng Army from the north. Yes, it's General Tang who rebelled, surrendered to the Suzheng Army, and turned around to kill us!"

"say what?!"

"Say it again?!"

The soldier repeated it aloud.

"The Tang family rebelled, and all the soldiers under their command rebelled!"

General Liu was dumbfounded, Li Zhuang said anxiously.

"I've known for a long time that he is not a loyal minister, so he really rebelled! General Liu must not let him go, and should arrest all his family and friends first!"

But after saying this, another urgent report came.

"It's not good, the soldiers of Tang's rebellion are all going to Heshan Guard, and Heshan Guard may not be able to defend it!"

Before he finished speaking, Li Zhuang took a breath and staggered back three steps.

He can't catch Tang Ting's family and friends, and his own wives, concubines, children and servants are all still staying in Heshanwei.
*
Nan Chengjun.

The court soldiers and horses under the main city were completely wiped out in one breath, and the speed of withdrawal was unimaginable.

But soon Jiang Shan knew the reason for withdrawing troops.

"The court soldiers and horses led by the Five Tiger Generals rebelled and surrendered to the Suzheng Army? How many nearby guards are there after attacking Heshan Guard?"

He couldn't believe it, "Could it be a conspiracy by the five tigers?"

Jiang Shan thought that this must be a conspiracy. The reinforcements from the Suzheng Army had not arrived yet, so why did they instigate rebellion against the generals of the imperial court?
But the withdrawal of troops really made him breathe a sigh of relief. If this continues, the gate of the west city will be broken, and the main city will really be unable to defend.

But he immediately ordered everyone not to relax their vigilance and beware of fraud.

But they didn't wait for the court soldiers to retreat, but instead waited for Zhang Shouyuan and Zhang Daochang who arrived with the reinforcements.

Jiang Shan had a deep relationship with him. The previous three parties watched each other to win Xuzhou, which was the result of Zhang Shouyuan's best efforts to match.

Now that Zhang Shouyuan is here, Jiang Shan invited him into his account, and he first told about the news that the imperial soldiers had returned to the Suzheng Army.

"...I don't know what kind of deceit there is in this, what does Daoist Zhang think?"

But Daoist Zhang stroked his beard and laughed.

"Chief Jiang is overthinking. There is nothing wrong with it. They have indeed surrendered to the Suzheng Army, and they are already members of the Suzheng Army."

Jiang Shan's head was pounding, he couldn't believe it at all, and couldn't help wondering, could this be another kind of deceit, a plot by the Suzheng Army to annex the Nancheng Army?
However, Zhang Daochang said, "After they surrendered, they will only guard Heshanwei and other places, and will not come to attack the city again. There is no need for me to wait for the reinforcements to stay. Instead, I brought some food, grass and arms. It is inconvenient to take them back, so I gave them to Jiang." The leader is gone. Pindao has other important things to do, so I'm leaving."

Zhang Shouyuan really didn't stay, and he didn't explain to Jiang Shan any more. Amid Jiang Shan's doubts, he returned home with reinforcements.

The soldiers of the imperial court retreated and rebelled, and the reinforcements of the Suzheng Army came and left, leaving things behind.

Jiang Shan's army always believed that this must be a fraud, but they waited for half a month at the gate of the city, but they did not see any soldiers and horses who came back to attack. The prefectures and counties under the guards first arrested the former Heshan Guard Commander Li Zhuang's wife and children and tied them to the tower. Li Zhuang couldn't help sneaking into the city to save people, but Tang Ting chopped him off his horse with a knife. Hanging on the city tower, he was named the crime of an incompetent and lenient villain, and everyone was alerted.

If Jiang Shan still refused to believe it before, but Tang Ting killed his boss, the matter has been settled.

Su Zhengjun and Tang Ting rebelled and returned troops, and then sent troops to occupy the territory south of Xuzhou, north and west of Heshanwei, and the imperial army was salvaged like duckweed.

However, after more than a month, the territory of the Suzheng Army expanded again, extending to the border gate of the Nancheng Army.

However, the Suzheng army had no intention of attacking the Nancheng army at all, so they deployed their troops to move northward, and there was a momentum to move northward together.

Everyone in Nancheng's army was in a daze because of this, and Jiang Laoer couldn't believe it the most.

"The Suzheng Army really doesn't want our territory?"

Old Daoist, "Maybe I really don't want it. After all, their current territory is more than three times that of ours."

The youngest Jiang Mu, who just woke up from a coma for half a month, heard the conversation of the two brothers, but did not join in, but turned around and called his father.

"What does dad think?"

The second child didn't know what he meant by the question, "What else can Dad think? No one comes to beat us for a while, so let's stop for a few days?"

However, after the second child finished speaking, Jiang Shan, who was standing with his hands behind his back, turned around and looked at his youngest son.

"My youngest is indeed different from your elder brother and second brother."

He said this suddenly, and the boss and the second couldn't understand what he said.

But Jiang Mu looked over, "Dad, have you figured it out?"

"What are you thinking about?" the second child couldn't help asking.

Jiang Shan closed his eyes and opened his mouth after a while.

"I've thought about it. With Su Zhengjun's ability, what should we use to compete with them? Instead of waiting for Su Zhengjun to deal with us after they are successful, how about giving them a helping hand now, and we can also be in front of the orphan of the former prince. A meritorious service from the dragon."

He looked far to the north.

"Tomorrow, you all follow me to the north, and dedicate several cities to the Jiang family for the princess."

To add another wing to Suzheng's army, turn the sky over and overwhelm the land as soon as possible.

　The war has finally come to an end, today the author is a hard-working code word bee.
