Red Mansion Soldiers

Chapter 117 You are in disaster!

The cavalry carrying the Vermilion Bird banner rushed into the central army and surrounded Gao Xianye who was standing under the high platform. Seeing this, Yang Zhi felt the shame of being defeated by an unknown person rushing to his heart. Gao Xianye rushed over.

"Hmph, ugly man, I can be afraid of you!" Gao Xianye rushed towards him when he saw his defeated general riding a horse, sneered, and also charged towards Yang Zhi with his spear in hand.

"Hit a hammer!" Seeing that the two men were about to splatter blood on the spot, Jia Hun quickly raised his bow, and hit the two spear points with two arrows.

Gao Xianye's Qi army-style long spear was directly shot off the tip of the spear, while Yang Zhi was hit by the force of the bow so that the steel spear dropped from his hand and fell to the ground.

Realizing what he was doing, Yang Zhi immediately came to his senses, jumped off the horse and knelt on the ground.

"The Last General. The Last General"

"Needless to say, go back first."

After all, he was his confidant, and Jia Hun would not criticize him harshly.

After all, it is not certain whether Gao Xianye will surrender or not, and it is not necessary to recruit him. There is no need to wrong one of our own for someone who is currently an outsider.

Yang Zhi saw that he could not take revenge, so he gave Gao Xianye a reluctant look, and led his horse to the rear with his soldiers.

Only Gao Xianye stood there holding a stick in a daze.

"Brother Gao must have guessed what I want to say, right?" Jia Hun said to Gao Xianye who was standing still.

".I won't fall all the way!" Gao Xianye replied looking at the broken part of the spear in his hand.

"Qiu Qi? Isn't it anyway? Dare I ask Brother Gao, what is his background?"

Qi?I seem to have encountered the remnants of the previous dynasty
"My great-grandfather once followed Hua General Wei Minggong and wiped out the [-] troops of your North Road in Baibi City." Gao Xianye thought for a while, and it's better to tell them all.

".Wei Ming, that's the way it is. No wonder. But what year is the old calendar in Qianliang? It's been [-] years since Daqi was founded!"

"Hmph, don't say any more, my Gao family is not well-off. I underestimated you. Just because of your archery skills, ordinary people can't practice it. I admit it. Kill me!" Gao Xianye smiled wryly. , sat cross-legged on the ground.

"Not official? What kind of reasoning is this? You have to know that our dynasty does not treat the heirs of the martyrs of the previous dynasty in the slightest. You saw that Yang Zhi just now. Wasn't his family from the Liang dynasty?" Is the general after the Yang family?

Not to mention the general Hua Wei Ming who your ancestors followed, his grandson is now the governor of Guangdong and Guangxi in Daqi.

Even the descendants of Lord Liang are also one of the two kings and three Kes of my Daqi, and they are all living well in Guanzhong!Look, these former big men all surrendered to Daqi and lived an extremely nourishing life. Why do you, a descendant of Wei Ming's confidant lieutenant general, foolishly hang out with a group of rats in the gutter for more than 100 years?How many people in your family have been able to observe the festival for Daliang for a hundred years?Now it is not you who are sorry to the Great Liang Dynasty, it is the Great Liang Dynasty who is sorry to you!

With your ability, staying in the White Lotus Sect is a waste of talent. You can't even get a team of cavalry. A person like you should lead thousands of cavalry in the desert, across the grasslands, and on the battlefield with the barbarians, not in the south of the Yangtze River. A third-rate rebel working hard!

Enough said, think about what I say. "

This is my first time trying to persuade him to surrender, so I don't know how to speak well, but the descendants of Lord Liang and the descendants of Wei Ming do have something to do with each other. This is the fact. It all depends on when he will surrender.

after all
He looked like he was very brave, killing the Suzaku Cavalry and the Firearms Battalion to reach the central position. However, according to Jia Hui's observation, Gao Xianye actually killed less than ten people, all of whom were facing him.
That is to say, he showed his martial arts, showed his worth, and didn't do everything well, leaving himself a way out.

Jia Hun would not believe that he had no intention of surrendering.

Gao Xianye was silently taken away by Jia Hui's soldiers and put into prison.

"Is there any loss of my cavalry?"

"Return to the general, there are no corpses of cavalry on the battlefield, at most they are injured." The soldiers replied.

"Well, at least I haven't lost my reputation. Send someone to Huai'an to see how Lin Chong's recruiting progress is, and see how long it takes to become an army!"

"Yes!"

. . . . . .

"Xiaogao lost." On the northwest corner of the city wall, the chief officer of the Bailian Sect Huguang and the leader watched in disbelief that their own cavalry was wiped out. The leader disappeared after entering the enemy camp
"Master, do you think Xiao Gao has surrendered?" Behind him, a deputy chief soldier who usually didn't get along well with the general town pointed out something.

"Fart your mother, Xiao Gao is a queen of Zhongliang, and he is at odds with Qi Ting! How can he surrender!" Zong Zhen pointed at the nose of the deputy chief soldier and began to yell.

"I'm farting? I think it's something wrong with your brain! After all your hard work, you managed to gather a cavalry for him, and within a quarter of an hour after leaving the city, the cavalry was gone, and even Gao Xianye entered the enemy line." If there is no movement, isn't this a typical surrender!" The deputy chief soldier was completely worthy of the general township.

"You! Leader, the Gao family has been a powerful family in our holy religion for hundreds of years. How can you join the army? I hope the leader will tell you clearly!" There was no point in arguing with the deputy commander, so the commander turned around and knelt down to plead with the leader.

"The Gao family is the mainstay of my Holy Cult and has a deep blood feud with Qi Ting. How can it be possible to surrender? Don't say such things that are not conducive to unity in the future."

But now he is the only one left in the Gao family, so whether to surrender or not is not in his mind?
Everyone muttered in their hearts, but they still bowed to the leader and said yes.

"Master, what shall we do next? There are also officers and troops from the east!" The Shaanxi general in charge of guarding the east city spoke.

"The east side is also besieged? It seems that Jia Hun wants to besiege the city and trap us here. Yes, after all, he is Qi Ting's current number one general. We underestimated him before."

The leader suddenly felt powerless.

According to the original plan, he wanted to take advantage of the attack on Zhenjiang to lure Jia Hun or someone else out, laying a few waves of ambushes on the road to consume the strength of the Qi army and the number of fighters as much as possible, and to make them more powerful. It is certain that Zhenjiang was attacked. After all, there are so many ambushes. From the perspective of the Qi army, Zhenjiang must be in a very dangerous situation.

Then they pretended to be still fighting in the city to trick the reinforcements in. While the reinforcements were fighting fiercely with the Crusaders, their own people pretending to be Qi troops took the opportunity to make a sneak attack and tried their best to eat up the reinforcements.
If the plan is successful, it will not only consume the strength of the Qi army in the Southern Kingdom, but also obtain a large amount of armaments, especially the most scarce horses
This plan is perfect in the eyes of the top of the White Lotus Sect.

Then something went wrong in the first part.
Jia Hui didn’t take the land route at all!
Not only were the six waves of ambush on the road useless, Jia Hui even gained a foothold because they failed to capture Xijin Ferry in time. Now, the Holy Sect is actually besieged in Zhenjiang City!
The armaments that were originally planned to be obtained were also in vain, and even the only animals left in the city that could run were slaughtered by the Qi army.
Gan!
How did things develop like this?
All the higher-ups began to get irritable.

It’s such a bad feeling that things are going completely out of plan!
"How long will our food and grass be enough?" the leader suddenly asked.

"Master, it can last for three months. The main reason is that a batch of grain has just been transported away, otherwise it can last for a year!" The chief manager in charge of logistics came out and replied to the leader.

"Three months is too little." It is too difficult to stop the incoming army of tens of thousands with the strength of a city, let alone defending under siege.

"Master, the grain merchants in the city who have been killed and cleaned up also have grain in their hands, but they haven't counted it yet. It is estimated that they can last for three months. Besides, there is still a batch of grain," the Shandong general officer said suddenly.

"Huh? You mean Danyang?"

"Yes, it's not just Danyang, but also Xinzhou (today's Yangzhong, Xu Da's fiefdom in the early Ming Dynasty) and Changzhou! I think there are only more than 6000 people in Jia Hui's camp at this time, and it seems that the rest are scattered around Zhenjiang City Now. Leader, this is our opportunity! Taking advantage of the fact that there are not many people in the four directions at this time, we send troops to defeat the besieged officers and soldiers with more troops and fewer troops, and penetrate directly into the three cities. We will come back as soon as we get the food and grass! We can’t take it away. Burn it too, and never leave a grain of food for the officers and soldiers!
Master, this is the last chance!If it was dragging on, it would be too late when Jia Hun summoned the army to collect food! "After finishing speaking, the Shandong General Soldier knelt down on one knee, making a gesture of pleading for orders.
"But what about Jia Hun's cavalry? How could two legs outrun four? We don't even need to catch up, we just need to hang far behind and shoot with bows and arrows is enough for us! "Someone objected.

"Then what do you say? Doing nothing is the fastest way to die!"

"Then the whole army will go out to the north gate, and get rid of Jia Hun first, regardless of the cost!"

"You're talking nonsense! Jia Hun is behind Xijin Ferry, won't he run away when the situation is bad? Killing 6000 people and his confidant cavalry completely angered Jia Hun, do you think you didn't die fast enough?"

"Okay, you actually think that our Holy Church has failed!"

"What a port!"

The two people who scolded each other got angry and were about to fight on the city wall. The commanders and deputy commanders who were watching the excitement hurried up to fight, and the generals and guerrillas outside did not dare to go up.

"Presumptuous!" The leader yelled at the two of them, and the two glared at each other, then knelt down to admit their mistake.

"The Shandong General Soldier's suggestion is very good. It won't work to attack Jia Hui at any cost. There is a ferry behind him, but it's impossible to do nothing. In this way, someone can go to Jia Hui's camp and try to persuade him to surrender. You and others Gather at the east city gate and wait for my order."

. . . . . .

"Old Yang, hurry up and take someone around to the east of the city!"

Jia Hun, who was drinking tea, suddenly noticed on the small map that the rebels in the city were gathering towards the east of the city, obviously intending to break out there and go somewhere.

There is a high probability to grab some supplies. The nearest cities are Danyang and Changzhou. Oh yes, there is also a place called Xinzhou that has just been established as a county.

"The last general obeys the order!" Yang Zhizheng wanted to make meritorious service to wash away the humiliation of the defeat just now, so he hurriedly got off the high platform and was about to run to his army.

"Wait a while, take them on board to Xinzhou District, wait for an hour, if there is no one, then go south to Changzhou, if someone comes, call first and then go to Changzhou."

"Yes!"

"You go and send people to go around the south of the city to the east of the city, and inform the defenders over there to prepare for a counter-breakout." After Yang Zhi left, Jia Hun said to the soldiers behind him.

The soldiers agreed and got off the platform to deliver the order.

Even though Jia Hun's personal soldiers acted like servants, in fact, they all had a fifth-rank honor, which was earned by them following Jia Hun twice in the war of destroying the country. Bing was even a fourth-rank Xinwu general, and even ordinary city guards would come over and call him Shangguan respectfully.

Picking up the teacup, he took a sip of the tribute-grade Pu-erh white tea brought from Yunnan, and heaved a sigh of relief.

Make a fuss, make a fuss, if you don't make a fuss, how can I quickly find your flaws and crush you?
If we really want to wage a siege, it will take at least four or five months. It is common to fight for a year if the food in the city is sufficient.His first child will be born in a few months, and he doesn't want to miss the moment of his child's birth.

"General, the Bailian bandit has sent someone over!"

"Well, I saw it, let him come over."

From a distance, I saw a man standing on a carriage, walking towards this side with a stick like a scepter dangling.

Due to the rule that the two armies do not kill the envoy in battle, the commander of the former army's firearms battalion did not order to shoot him.

After a rough search, the envoy who was very annoyed by being turned around suppressed his anger and came to the foot of the Chinese military platform.

The messenger snorted coldly, straightened his clothes, held up his scepter and looked down upon Jia Hun who was looking down from the high platform.

"Disrespectful! Hurry up and salute the general!" Seeing the envoy's defiant look, the soldiers were very angry.

"Salute? Oh, I'm holding the scepter bestowed by the leader of my sect. The one who should salute is your general!" The envoy was still arrogant.

"Insanity!"

"presumptuous!"

"court death!"

The surrounding soldiers and officers began to angrily curse the envoy in order to come forward.

The messenger still acted arrogantly.

Heh, the next step is to stop this group of people.
The messenger looked up at Jia Hun who was drinking tea leisurely.

There is no intention of stopping them at all!
Jia Hui, who was on the high platform, watched as if he were watching a monkey show as the messenger was surrounded and scolded him constantly. From the initial arrogance and calmness, he gradually became embarrassed.
"Okay, it's almost done, that thief, why did your leader ask you to come here?"

Seeing the envoy was so frightened that he was about to pee his pants, so he waved his hand to quiet down the guard officers below.

The embarrassed envoy quickly held up his hat and started to adjust his official uniform, but accidentally threw the staff to the ground. The envoy didn't care that his clothes were torn and his inner clothes were exposed, so he quickly threw himself on the ground and picked up the staff.

This embarrassed look aroused loud laughter from the surrounding officers.

Jia Hui also laughed out loud.

In an instant, the emissary's eyes lost their brilliance, but when he thought that he was still shouldering the mission given to him by the leader, he took a few deep breaths and calmed down.

He looked up at Jia Hun on the high platform again, as if the Great General Sima was a paper tiger.

"Jia Hui, do you know that you are in danger without even realizing it?"
