Great Wei Overlord

Chapter 752 Can I Trust You?

Chapter 757 Can I Trust You
Wang Meng found that Pei Bi did not follow his plan to persuade Ran Zhi to leave, but stepped up the defense of Yecheng, Wang Meng was a little disappointed.

War and benevolence are two contradictory concepts, so there is a saying that kindness does not control soldiers.Ran Ming is not a benevolent person, especially in foreign wars, Ran Ming can do everything without hesitation, it is not an exaggeration to call him insane.

But when it comes to the infighting among the Han people, Ran Ming is too benevolent.

But Ran Zhi didn't back down, so Ran Ming had to fight with swords. At this time, Wang Meng had to take measures to help Ran Ming clear the obstacles.

"Jing Lue, you are worrying about mediocrity!"

After Xie An learned of Wang Meng's intentions, he smiled and said, "Yecheng cannot be fought."

"Can't fight?"

Wang Meng said: "You don't know, Jiang Qian buried more than 600 stones of fire oil in the inner urn city."

Xie An said with a smile: "Your Majesty decided the tripod in troubled times, relying on the generals of Ran's family. Now these three thousand generals are in the city. If His Majesty dies, these families will naturally be loyal to Ran Zhi, but His Majesty is still alive, and Ran Zhi will also command Don't move this family soldier. Three days ago, this family soldier suddenly disappeared strangely. Except for more than [-] people stationed in the palace to protect Queen Dong, the others disappeared. Ran Zhi had already closed the city gate, so It is definitely impossible for many horses to leave the city. Since they have not left the city, where will they be and what will they do? Jinglue, can you not think of it?"

Wang Meng suddenly realized.

A bright moon hangs in the sky. This moon is not as bright as usual, but a little dark red. A big halo surrounds the moon. Anyone with a little knowledge knows that tomorrow will be another strong wind.

Jiang Gan stood on the top of the wall, shivering with cold.There is no way, if you want to save your life, you must put on a thick armor. The cold steel is like a big piece of ice on your body.

Looking at the soldiers whose lips had turned purple, Jiang Gan reluctantly ordered them to go back to rest.Only a few guards were left to observe the movement of the Wei army outside the city.

If Jiang Gan doesn't let the soldiers go back to keep warm, there will be many stiff corpses on the city wall tomorrow morning.

The cold wind was blowing more and more urgently, and the white cold wind hit the person's face, which hurt like a knife cutting.Jiang Gan looked down at the city with a blank face. The soldiers of the Wei army who supervised the manufacture of equipment were still fighting at night with lights on. During this night, countless siege equipment must have been produced in their hands.

Jiang Gan was not afraid of Ran Min's light-armed advance, nor was he afraid of the large number of Wei soldiers outside the city.Yecheng's strong city walls and complete defense facilities are Jiang Gan's reliance.But these ties are gradually being lost.

He was the general of the Wei State who conquered the South, and he also had a large number of siege slings in the army, especially the catapults improved by the master craftsman Wei Meng, which could throw 150-jin stone bullets three hundred steps away.

Even the loess wall rammed with glutinous rice juice could not withstand the indiscriminate bombardment of such huge stone bombs.

No matter how complete the defense facilities are in front of this kind of trebuchet, it is futile.If you want to defend Yecheng and wait for the sky to change, you will definitely need to sacrifice your life.With five thousand soldiers under his command, Jiang Gan didn't know if they could last a day.

In the palace, Ran Zhi didn't feel sleepy either.Empress Liu, who was worried and frightened all day, lost a lot of weight and her eye sockets were sunken, like a starving African.Due to Ran Zhi's power, Liu did not dare to speak out her inner thoughts.

In fact, she really wanted to persuade Ran Zhi to give up, but she was afraid that Ran Zhi would cut her off in a fit of anger.Liu has no doubt that Ran Zhi can do this kind of thing.

"Queen, let's see if this is Pei Bi's success, Huan Chong just handed it over. What are they thinking? They even asked to temporarily borrow troops from Gaoping and Shanyang counties. They are still trying to take advantage of it. If If they don’t go northward with light soldiers, they go straight to Yecheng, Jiang Gan won’t be able to resist for a few days, and I won’t live long either!”

Ran Zhi said angrily: "Huan Chong has no good intentions. If I allow Gaoping and Shanyang counties to them, the land of these two counties will no longer belong to our Great Wei!"

Although Empress Liu is thin, she is thin but very knowledgeable.The places that should be thin are all thinner, but the places that should not be thin have not been reduced a bit. The beautiful body has undulating mountains and hills, which makes people daydream infinitely.

How dare Empress Liu answer Ran Zhi's words, she is actually a woman who doesn't understand anything.It's not as good as Kezuhun's, let alone Chu Suanzi.

As a queen, she can be emptied of power by a noble concubine and ordered not to leave the palace.After all, Empress Liu is also a miserable person.

Seeing Empress Liu's appearance, Ran Zhi became angry again.But there was nothing he could do.With a burst of fire in his heart, Ran Zhi pulled away and walked aimlessly into Ruoda's palace, a little bit dispirited.

Suddenly Ran Zhi saw a plump palace lady rushing in with a thermos. When she saw Ran Zhi, she was like a frightened kitten, lying on the ground shivering.

An evil fire rose from Ran Zhi's body, and he reached into the maid's clothes...

Like all siege wars, Ran Min's letter of persuasion to surrender was shot into the city by eight oxen crossbow arrows. Ran Min proudly told the soldiers and civilians of Yecheng: "I have returned, and I have surrendered the city. Let the past be forgotten. Only punish the culprits and coerce the followers." Light punishment. If you resist in the corner, you will never leave behind!"

Jiang Gan was very excited when he saw this letter. He wrote a letter to Ran Min himself, telling Ran Min that he could surrender, and that Da Ran Min must forgive his sins and ensure the safety of his own property and family members. Ran Min refused, he would rather fight to the end!

In fact, although Jiang Gan pretended to surrender, he was unwilling to fail.

With Ran Min's mind, it is not impossible to spare his life, but he must stay away from the military camp and become a rich man.Jiang Gan is not yet 40 years old. As a general, he is still a rising star.

Not reconciled, Jiang Gan pretended to be perfunctory to Ran Min, and at the same time moved more than [-] shi of fierce oil into the urn, preparing to give Ran Min a urn to catch a turtle.

Ran Min accepted Jiang Gan's letter, and laughed at Ran Ming: "Look, Jiang Gan actually wants me to guarantee his life!"

Ran Ming said: "Father, surrendering without a fight does not seem to be the tradition of the Wei army!"

"The Wei army has 10 troops, and it is inevitable to have a few scum!"

Ran Min said: "Now that Jiang Gan is still obsessed with his obsession, I don't want to play with them anymore!"

"Playing?" Ran Ming said: "The city of Ye is managed by Cao Cao and Shi Hu, and it is not weaker than Chang'an and Luoyang. It is not easy to break the city!"

Ran Min sneered and said: "Ye City is my Ye City, and no one can stop me from entering Ye City. I just want to see who gave Ran Zhi such courage. It's a pity, this Help the old fox, you are more slippery than loach. They are not fooled, even Wenxi Pei has drawn a clear line with Pei Bi."

Only then did Ran Ming realize that he had once again underestimated Ran Min.

Ran Min originally had the idea of ​​cuddling grass and shooting rabbits, to see who stood behind Ran Zhi, and he also knew that this noble family and Ran Zhi had always been able to get along.This time to pacify Ran Zhi, Ran Min also wanted to further weaken the power of the noble family.

It's just that he didn't expect that this time they drew a line in a hurry.Those gentry children who followed Ran Zhi became the outcasts of the family.

In fact, Ran Ming didn't know that Ran Min's plan was more than that.He also took advantage of Ran Zhi's civil strife to involve Jin.

However, Ran Min had calculated everything, and Jin was so timid. Not only did he not give Ran Zhi the greatest support, but he didn't even send an envoy.If Huan Wen hadn't sent his younger brother Huan Chong, Ran Zhi would have been destined to sing a one-man show this time.

Ran Min laughed and said: "Ming'er, you don't know that Jiang Gan is still ruthless. He actually thought of bringing me into the Wengcheng, and then poured six hundred stones of fire oil into the Wengcheng, and burned you and my father and son to death. Hehe, since Shihu moved his capital to Yecheng in the first year of Xiankang, I have lived in Yecheng. I have lived in Yecheng for more than 30 years. I am very familiar with every plant and tree here. How dare he, Jiang Gan, live in Yecheng? I'm playing tricks in front of me, I really don't know what to say about him!"

Ran Ming saw that Ran Minzhi was very satisfied, so he smiled and complimented him twice!

Pei Bi's mood was very chaotic, he was not optimistic about Jiang Gan.

Both Ran Min and Ran Ming are world-renowned titans, and there is no reason for them to lose to Jiang Gan. Even Jiang Gan's plan of fire in the Urn City, which Jiang Gan thought was a perfect solution, was actually a joke in Pei Bi's view.

The small urn city with a radius of three miles can only accommodate three thousand people at best.

Ran Min is the emperor, even though he returned to Yecheng this time, it was impossible for Ran Min to perform with the highest standard.However, being an emperor's guard of honor is indispensable. When the Wei State was established, there were four types of guards of honor for the emperor, including Dajia, Fajia, Xiaojia, and Huanghuizhang.Even if Ran Min adopts the worst Huang Huizhang, this guard of honor is not only large in number, but also in order.

The personnel in the guard of honor must be arranged in strict accordance with the etiquette regulations. There are clear regulations on who is in front and who is behind, who is on the left and who is on the right. To act according to the regulations, even the breed, coat color and attire of the horses they ride have regulations.

In addition to the emperor's chariot, the whole guard of honor also includes civil and military officials, followers of various colors, imperial guards, bands, etc. Animals include elephants, cows, and horses.There are 61 chariots, 870 horses, 36 cattle, [-] elephants, and [-] musical instruments.

These things represent the majesty of the emperor and are indispensable.

Jiang Gan didn't know, but Pei Bi knew that Ran Min's ceremonial guards alone could fill the urn city. I'm afraid that before Ran Min entered the city gate, the cavalry guards who opened the way in front would open the inner urn city. The city gate is closed.

There is an ambush in the Wengcheng, these people are not blind, it is impossible to see.It's a good strategy to lay an ambush in the Neiyang City, but Pei Bi understands the truth that the tiger won't die, but will be wounded by the tiger.

If Ran Min went crazy, there would be few survivors in Ye City.

Originally, Pei Bi had already given up, at worst, he would die with Ran Zhi.

But an unexpected person appeared in Pei Bi's mansion, and only one of Pei Bi's old servants remained in this mansion.Entering Pei Bi's mansion, Yang Yun still heard Wang Meng's confession before leaving: "Bold, bold, be careful not to let Pei Bi see the flaws, whether the battle in Yecheng can be avoided or not depends on you. If you are lucky, Pei Bi trusts you, and Yecheng falls without a fight, and you will be the first to do it."

What is the first achievement among Wei Jun, you know.The appointment of the Marquis is just around the corner.But if you are spotted, you can pull out your knife and chop Pei Bi.I guarantee you prosperity and wealth. "

Yang Yun rushed to Wang Meng and said: "Lun is not afraid of death, I just ask Mr. to treat Yun's wife, children and mother well and give them a way to survive."

"Yang Yun, why is it you? Did you come to see Bi's jokes?" Pei Bi said angrily, "If it was to see Bi's jokes, congratulations on your success. Now you have seen that Pei Bi has nothing, are you satisfied? ?”

"Sir, what are you talking about?" Yang Yun said: "Yang Yun came from a humble background, and he has always been disliked by the King of Qin. Although he and the King of Qin have the name of a mentor, they have no real master and apprentice. If it weren't for this, how could luck be so messed up. Liu Ke is Liu Ke, Yang Yun is Yang Yun, Mister must not be confused!"

Pei Bi was silent for a while and said, "Yang Yun, can I trust you?"
