The world worships me as the White Snake Immortal

Chapter 22 Yanzhou Prefecture Yin
In the midst of the raging war, the heavy city gate of Yanzhou City slowly opened, and a group of cavalry of about 500 people flew out from the city gate, using the cover of the arrow rain on the city top to rush to the vicinity of the siege ram.

The infantry guarding the battering ram were vulnerable to their onslaught.

After gaining the advantage, the cavalrymen quickly took off the kerosene they carried on their waists and threw it on the battering ram. A large fire ignited the huge instrument.

The entire body of the battering ram is made of solid wood. Only the hammer head is covered with a thick layer of iron, so it is extremely flammable.

After the cavalry succeeded, they did not hesitate to fight and withdrew into the city before the opponent's cavalry could attack.

Without the battering ram, this siege battle would be meaningless, and trying to capture a city with only the remaining three ladders would be a joke.

However, Tu Man raised the corner of his mouth when he looked at these retreating cavalry.

Just as Su He thought, he could tell at a glance that these soldiers were not the troops under King Liang.

Knowing this, he could have an idea of ​​what was going on in Yanzhou City.

So Tu Man simply ordered to stop attacking the city and sent a message to King Wu.

King Liang's army was defeated by the defenders of Yanzhou City, and even the bed crossbows were lost, which meant that they had no possibility of attacking in a short time.

And he can surround Yanzhou City and wait for the support of King Wu.

They are bound to win Yanzhou City.

The soldiers at the top of Yanzhou City cheered immediately when they saw Tu Man retreating so easily, thinking that they had defeated Tu Man.

But both Su He and Huang Wen knew that was far from the case.

This time Tuman only sacrificed some unimportant infantry and a battering ram, but they clearly found out their trump card.

Next time he attacks the city it won't be as easy as this time!

But everyone in the city was in high spirits, and the two of them were too embarrassed to attack them, so they had to silently walk down from the top of the city and return to the mansion!
Back in the mansion, Su He and Huang Wen sat together and looked at the map hanging in the room, silent for a long time.

They didn't realize it until the servant came excitedly to remind the two of them to go out for dinner at dinner time.

Su He gently said to the servant: "Send the food here, we still have something to talk about!"

"Yes!"

After the servant hurriedly left, Su He looked at Huang Wen and said, "What do you say!"

"Two ways, one, I go back, go into the mountains, try my luck in the vast mountains to see if Lord Snake Immortal will help us, but the date is uncertain, and we can't force Lord Snake Immortal to take action, two, join forces with King Liang! "

At this time, King Wu's army was outside the city, but King Liang's army was driven back by Zhou Bai.

Now is the time to negotiate terms with King Liang, unless King Liang plans to give away this piece of fat in Yanzhou.

Su He also understood this, but King Liang was by no means an ordinary person. It was hard to say whether the terms negotiated with him meant they would be happy or seek skin from the tiger.

After hesitating for a long time, Su He took a deep breath and said: "The Snake Immortal is trustworthy. King Liang is just a jackal. You met the Snake Immortal several times when you were young. Go into the mountain to look for him. It’s most suitable, but I have to trouble you to make another trip!”

"If a trip can solve Yanzhou's urgent needs, the student is willing to do it!"

After saying that, Huang Wen stood up and left.

When he was going out, he happened to bump into a servant who came to deliver food, so Huang Wen took two steamed buns to eat on the way.

Looking at Huang Wen's leaving figure, Su He said with a hint of sadness in his eyes: "What a good disciple. I, Su He, got this person again before I died. I will die with no regrets!"

……

In the vast mountains, Zhou Bai was lying on the top of a towering mountain, breathing clouds and mist, guiding the water vapor from heaven and earth into his body.This is a pleasure he recently discovered. Swallowing the water vapor can help him wash away impurities in his body, so that he will not secrete the smelly mucus from time to time.

As for things outside the mountain, he naturally knows something.

But he had no intention of taking action.

With his current strength, it would be great if he could hold on to several villages like Nanshan Village that worshiped him devoutly.

Moreover, he is better at walking in the shade of trees in the mountains. Going out to the mountains and walking on the plains will make him feel insecure.

He was generous enough not to stop Huang Wen from sending the food and supplies to Yanzhou Mansion, and he would not bother to do more.

Zhou Bai turned a deaf ear to the fact that Huang Wen went up the mountain to look for him without even having time to rest after returning to the village after a long journey.

As long as he didn't want to show up, Huang Wen wouldn't be able to find him no matter how hard he found him on the mountain.

All he could do was remind the wild animals in the mountains not to harass Huang Wen.

It was pity that Huang Wen, a scholar who had been studying for more than ten years, had to sleep in the mountains, travel through mountains and rivers, and his body was scarred after a few days.

This is the mosquito in the mountains in late autumn, otherwise he would be even worse.

Late that night, Huang Wen fell exhausted under a big locust tree. When he woke up, he happened to see the rising sun and couldn't help but burst into tears!

"Master Snake Immortal, please save the people of Yanzhou Prefecture. They will be dead if King Wu breaks the city!"

However, Huang Wen's crying did not attract Zhou Bai's attention. Instead, someone in the distant mountains shouted his name loudly.

"Huang Xiucai, are you?"

The other party's voice kept echoing in the mountains, faintly reaching Huang Wen's ears.

Huang Wen recognized the voice of a servant in Su He's house and immediately shouted, "It's me..."

Soon, several people who had traveled a lot found Huang Wen, and they couldn't help but be moved when they saw Huang Wen's miserable appearance.

However, they came because they had something more important to bring to Huang Wen.

A servant took off the package from his body and handed it to Huang Wen. He wiped the tears from his eyes and said, "Master Su asked me to give these things to you, and then please go back and sit in the seat of Yanzhou Prefect!"

"What? What are you talking about? My lord is still in Yanzhou, so what kind of role do I serve as the governor of Yanzhou!"

Huang Wen didn't react for a moment and immediately retorted.

But soon he thought of something, and with a hint of panic on his face, he tremblingly unwrapped the package handed over by the servant.

As the package opened, he was completely stunned by several things inside.

What was inside the package turned out to be the official seal and military talisman of Yanzhou Prefecture, as well as a letter written by Su He.

The letter stated that Su He went to King Liang's territory alone to negotiate peace with him. If he did not come back, the servants in the mansion would give these things to him.

Now that the court is in turmoil, the official approval document will definitely be lost, but as long as there are official seals and military symbols in Huangwen, the entire city's troops can be mobilized.

As for Su He, he had one last plan, which was to exchange his head and Yanzhou Prefecture for the chance of a decisive battle between King Liang's army and King Wu.

He told Huang Wen in the letter that after he returned, he would send all the elites in Yanzhou City to the mountains and forests outside the city. He had turned Yanzhou City into a shabby scene. When the time came, King Liang would only think it was Wu when he entered the city and saw this scene. Caused by the king's army.

When both sides lost the battle, the hidden troops in Yanzhou City reappeared and quickly occupied Yanzhou Mansion, locking the two kings' troops outside the city. Yanzhou might still have a glimmer of hope!
