Chapter 227 The Second Han-Vietnam Battle [5]
The morning light was like countless sharp swords, piercing the morning fog, revealing the army hidden behind the fog. The flags waving in the whistling north wind exposed their identities. A big word Yue unfolded unyielding in the cold wind.
Looking at the Han army camp where the camp gate was closed, Shi Yong was a little dissatisfied. He had been waiting here for half an hour, and the time was only a lot, but the Han army inside seemed to know nothing. Of course, Shi Yong knew that the Han army could not know nothing. Just looking at the longbow soldiers sent to the wooden wall, Shi Yong knew that Yang Zilu had definitely known what he had arrived. It was just that he pretended not to know for some reason.
"General, what do you mean by Yang Zilu? He knew that my Yue Army had arrived, but he did not go to fight. Yang Zilu didn't even break Gumi City, but Zhuji City. Is he the more he beats this? "General Youyang drove to Shuyong and asked with some confusion. Youyang doesn't like to wait aimlessly. Although more than half an hour has passed, he already felt that it seemed that a year has passed. This is no longer called waiting, but torture.
"Yang Zilu is playing Cao Gui's trick." Shu Yong heard this and comforted Yu Yang. But if he was a keen person, he would find that although Shu Yong said in disdain, there was no sign of disdain on his face. Instead, he was quite serious. That was because Shu Yong, who was a general, was already irritable now. Not to mention the soldiers below, which made Shu Yong even more uneasy. He already understood Yang Zilu's thoughts.
When Ouyang heard this, he was stunned and said, "Yang Zilu is learning from Cao Gui's one-stop spirit, and the second is declined and the third is exhausted. But isn't he afraid of damaging the morale of the Han army?"
Shiyong shook his head and said, "You don't understand that although there will be any attack, the Han army is not an ordinary army. Since the founding of the Han State, under the command of Yang Zilu, the Han army has been invincible and defeated in every battle. This also led to a different pride in the hearts of the Han soldiers. If Yang Zilu did not let them fight, they would be anxious and angry, but would not feel discouraged. When they go out again, they will turn their previous patient anxiety and anger into strength. It is like a hungry tiger locked in a cage. He will not lose his kingly power because of being imprisoned in a cage, but will become more dangerous and fierce because of hunger."
"Ah..." Ouyang was stunned, not knowing what to say.
After a long time, Ouyang said: "Isn't this let Yang Zilu consume our morale in vain, and we can only look at it with our eyes? This is really too frustrating. If so, we might as well call the gold and withdraw our troops now, so we'd better let Yang Zilu humiliate us here."
Speaking of this, Ouyang couldn't help but blush, making him look particularly angry.
"Of course he can't do this, but now I can only try this method." When Tongyong heard this, he also flashed anger in his eyes. After thinking for a while, he said in a deep voice. As soon as he finished speaking, he ordered the driver around him: "Driving the soldiers outside the Han military camp, but paying attention to the distance. Don't get within 150 steps, that's within the range of the Han Dynasty's archers."
"No" driver responded, immediately waved his long whip, shouted: "Gao" the soldiers pulled up two rolling smoke and dust, ran out, and soon arrived at the Han army camp one hundred and fifty steps away. The two Han army sharpshooters stationed on the wooden wall were so angry that they gritted their teeth, but they had no choice but to make the tongue go right. At this distance, the Han army's archers could only sigh.
Shi Yong took a deep breath and said to the Han army camp Pan Dahan: "Yang Zilu, I Shi Yong is here, do you dare to lead the troops to fight with Shi Yong."
Although the distance was far, the sound of the indifferent tongue still penetrated the air barrier and came. Soon, a soldier stationed on the city wall conveyed the words of the intern to Yang Zilu.
At that time, Yang Zilu was washing up. After listening to the soldiers' reports, she spit out the mouthwash from her mouth, took the towel handed over by the soldier, and wiped the water marks on her mouth. Yang Zilu said disapprovingly: "I'm just a defeated general under his command. How dare you be brave? I'm really not afraid of laughing at others."
The soldier implemented Yang Zilu's well. He first found three loud voices and asked them to practice three times before they could get on the wooden wall. The three loud voices immediately picked up the loudspeaker and shouted in unison: "Listen to the opposite side, my head said, "I'm just a defeated general, but I dare to be brave? I'm really not afraid of laughing at others' big teeth."
The voice was heard far away, and even the civilians located behind the Vietnamese army could clearly hear the shouts of the Han soldiers.
When the Han soldiers on the city wall heard this, they immediately laughed. The tension that the Vietnamese army had suppressed was immediately swept away. Only then did they remember that the Shuyong on the opposite side was defeated by their own troops. The veteran immediately promoted how to defeat the Yue army that invaded the Han Dynasty, and also promoted the scene of Shuyong being captured.
Of course, there are many falsehoods in these. For example, when the tongue-in-law saw the Han army coming, he immediately knelt down and shouted: "Grandpa, please spare me, I surrender." This is fake. Although as an enemy, Yang Zilu still admires the tongue-in-law's character.
However, the Han army recruits didn't know that, and they were proud of it in Gumi City and Zhuji City before, and now they were approaching the capital of Yue Kingdom. Everyone felt a little disdainful of the Vietnamese soldiers, and they also said less fear and nervousness in their hearts.
Although he could not hear the advice of the veterans, the three loud soldiers had just fallen, and the huge laughter could still be heard clearly. Shuyong couldn't help but blush. Although he was nominally defeated Yang Zilu once, although this was not a good thing, it did not mean that he would continue to lose in the future. But in fact, Shuyong was defeated once in the Han army, and in Gumi City, he was also cheated by Yang Zilu once. In short, he had been defeated twice under Yang Zilu.
But after thinking about it, the current situation could not be delayed. So I thought, and I simply gave up. I didn't want this shamelessness, and I would have to fight Yang Zilu even if I did.
Tongyong drove out again and shouted: "Yang Zilu, since I was defeated by you, why don't you dare to fight me? Could it be that I am afraid that I am Meng Mingshihu?"
Meng Mingshi was a general under the command of Qin Mu Duke of Qin in the Spring and Autumn Period. His father was famous and Baili Xi, a minister of Qin. He sent troops to Jin twice in a row, but was defeated by Jin. However, Qin Mu Duke still used him. In the end, Meng Mingshi defeated Jin in the third battle, which shocked the nearby small Western Rong countries. More than 20 small countries and tribes came to surrender to Qin, allowing Qin to expand its territory thousands of miles without a single soldier and became a powerful country in the west.
Meng Mingshi also became a famous general in the world. She Yong's words were a hint that it also stimulated Yang Zilu. Meng Mingshi also lost twice, but in the end he defeated Jin for the third time. He She Yong also lost twice in a row. Similarly, Goujian did not dismiss Songyong, but continued to trust him. She Yong's situation was so similar to Meng Mingshi. Then, Yang Zilu, dare you fight me?
Although Yang Zilu didn't know who Meng Mingshi was, it didn't prevent someone from telling Yang Zilu that Can Zhu, who was also a "famous family", naturally knew who Meng Mingshi was and what Meng Mingshi was allusions. As soon as he told Yang Zilu, Yang Zilu understood and smiled in her heart: It seems that she is really anxious, and she doesn't even want to be shameless, so she has given up.
Yang Zilu's men are not as patient as Yang Zilu, especially the Black Bear, stood up and shouted loudly: "Who is he Shuyong? He is just a defeated general. He dares to say such words. Lord, if you ask the general to send troops, the general will immediately lead people to destroy him. Let Shuyong know that if his defeat is to have the awareness of defeat."
"Master, let the last general send troops. The last general needs his troops." Han Jiading was afraid that he would be snatched by the black bear and he would spend all his money.
Hearing this, Black Bear was furious and was not willing to be outdone. As soon as Han Jiading finished speaking, Black Bear roared: "Master, the last general is OK, I just want the troops from the headquarters to fight."
"Stop quarrel, isn't it just a mediocre person? Why are you anxious? Just shut up and eat at the food." Yang Zilu waved her hand disapprovingly, picked up the chopsticks placed on the low table, and slowly tasted a piece of pork chop.
The soldier who came to report the message hesitated for a moment and asked, "Master, how should he respond to the slander?"
"No need to respond." Yang Zilu said swallowing the pork chop in her mouth, but as soon as she finished speaking, Yang Zilu felt that this would make people feel scared of mediocrity, so Yang Zilu shouted to the soldier who had just turned around: "Wait."
The warriors such as Black Bear and Han Jiading immediately raised their ears and stopped moving the chopsticks in their hands. They thought Yang Zilu was ready to go to the battle.
"I don't know what the Lord has to give?" The soldiers did not have as much care as they were. When they heard Yang Zilu's call, the soldiers turned around in a hurry, bowed to Yang Zilu, and asked respectfully.
"You go and respond to Shiyong, just say that I am not in the mood today, and Shiyong will come again tomorrow." After Yang Zilu said that, she immediately stuffed a piece of pork chop into her mouth and carefully tasted the delicious food in her mouth.
"No" soldiers responded and immediately turned around quickly, leaving their backs to Han Jiading and Hei Xiong, who were extremely disappointed. However, they looked at Yang Zilu who was still fighting with pig chops, and felt helpless. They sighed in their hearts, thinking: It seems that there is no war today.
It was not just them who had this idea. After hearing what the Han army called, Shi Yong also had the same idea as Hei Xiong, Han Jiading and others. Yang Zilu refused to send troops to start a war, and Shi Yong could not let the soldiers stand in this field, right? Shi Yong could only sigh and ordered You Yang with a disheartened expression: "Ming Jin, order the army to return to the camp to rest."
As soon as he returned to the camp, he saw Wen Zhong waiting by the camp gate. Shi Yong felt ashamed and patted his chest and spoke. As a result, he went on a battle with confidence, but he gained nothing. When the soldiers arrived at the camp gate, Shi Yong asked the driver to stop the soldiers. Shi Yong bowed to Wen Zhong and said with a shame: "Doctor, I am really..."
Before Shu Yong finished speaking, Wen Zhong had already walked into the chariot, waved his hand, and interrupted Shu Yong's words: "General Shu Yong doesn't need to say much. Today's war, Wen Zhong had sent people to the battlefield to investigate before the war started, and sent a message back every quarter of an hour. Therefore, Wen Zhong knew about today's war before the general came back."
When Tongyong heard this, Tongyong couldn't help but blushed, and said with a timid voice: "Tongyong is really, really..."
Wen Zhong waved his hand and interrupted Shi Yong's words again, saying, "No need to say about General Tongue. Although he has nothing to gain today, Wen Zhong also knows that the crime is not on General Tongue, so he doesn't have to mind this way."
Hearing this, Shiyong sighed and said, "The doctor said this, Shiyong felt even more ashamed. The morale of using a heavy bonus today may have gone to challenge the Han barbarians tomorrow. I am no longer as sure as I am today. I really let down the doctor's ten thousand coins."
"Then I will reward you again. Twenty dollars per person is only 60,000 yuan. Now the remaining money is enough to reward you twice." Wen Zhong said with a firm face.
After hearing this, a touch flashed in his eyes, but he hesitated for a while and persuaded him: "Doctor, even though he said that, what if Yang Zilu doesn't go to fight tomorrow? Besides, the previous reward is not enough. If Yang Zilu wins tomorrow, the promise he had given to the soldiers before cannot be exchanged, which will seriously damage morale."
Wen Zhong hesitated for a while before saying, "I can't guarantee that Yang Zilu's battle will definitely go, but I thought of a strategy that might inspire Yang Zilu to fight."
"Oh?" Although Shuyong was surprised when he heard this, he also had a deep sense of half-believing and half-doubt. Shuyong asked himself that he had tried his best today, and he didn't even want his old face, so he was willing to do so. Although Wen Zhong was resourceful, he could think of a plan that was better than himself? If he was a little better, what's the use for Yang Zilu?
Wen Zhong saw that Shuyong was a little unbelievable and did not care. He was about to speak, but immediately found that he was sitting in a military carriage, and people came and went. It was hard to guarantee that there would be no detailed work by Yang Zilu, so Wen Zhong waved to Shuyong to Shuyong to show Shuyong to come over.
Although Shuyong was a little displeased with this, he still followed him. But Wen Zhong said a few words to Shuyong's ear. Shuyong's face, which was originally a bit half-believing and half-doubted, immediately seemed to face the buds of the warm spring breeze and immediately bloomed.
He was excited and straightened his back, swung his fists excitedly, and said, "As soon as he used this trick, I'm afraid that Yang Zilu would be furious no matter how determined Yang Zilu was, she would be furious, and she was afraid that he would not go to fight."
Wen Zhong heard this and although he was humble, he still said with a gloomy face: "General Tongue, don't hold on to the belief that you will succeed in this matter, maybe you may not succeed."
Shuyong laughed and refused to answer. He knew that this was just Wen Zhong's humble words, so how could he care? Then Shuyong thought of the question just now and asked again: "Doctor, the bounty matter..."
Wen Zhong's face, which was originally a little happy, became solemn immediately after hearing this. After a long time, Wen Zhong said in a deep voice: "Let's do it, let's talk about it. It's even more painful than being defeated by Yang Zilu if you can't exchange the soldiers' bounty."
Hearing the words, the tongue opened his lips, and in the end he didn't say anything. Although he knew that Wen Zhong's method of treating the head and foot pain was not very good. But then again, under the current circumstances, does Yueguo have a better choice? Only two harms can be taken lightly.
The next day, before the sky shone, Tongyong got up again, encouraging soldiers like yesterday. Of course, material rewards were indispensable. Twenty copper coins immediately shocked the morale of the Vietnamese soldiers again. Moreover, with the reward of twenty coins on the first day, the Vietnamese soldiers felt a little ashamed. As the saying goes, collecting money to eliminate disasters for others, I did nothing yesterday. Many soldiers made up their minds to fight more bravely today. Therefore, the morale of the Vietnamese army at this time was even better than yesterday, which undoubtedly made Tongyong even more excited, and I hope that Yang Zilu could come out to fight him.
But what worries Shi Yong finally happened. The gate of the Han army camp was closed. And Shi Yong delayed it for a while and only left the camp when the sky was just shining, and he made great efforts. I am afraid that the scouts of the Han army were deaf and blind, even the Vietnamese army was dispatched. But at this moment, the gate of the Han army camp was closed. At this time, even the fool knew what was going on.
Ouyang drove to Shuyong with a red face, and asked helplessly in his anger: "General, today... it is still like this today, what should we do?"
Tongyong raised his hand and waved it backwards, then turned his head to comfort Ouyang and said, "Don't worry, this is not beyond the expectations of this general. Doctor Wenzhong had already thought of a provocation method last night and told me. If he used stimulation, it would be impossible to guarantee that Yang Zilu could lead the army out of the camp to fight us, but 80% sure, this general still has it."
Although Ouyang saw that although he said 80% or more, he did not dare to let go of his heart when he saw that his face was full of confidence. He smiled and said, "80% or more, it is probably the general's humble words?"
When Tongyu heard this, he smiled but did not answer. But when others saw the face, they knew the answer, because Tongyu's face almost didn't write these big words: 'This is definitely a humble word'.
While Shi Yong was talking to Yue Guo General Ouyang, a Yue Guo man dressed as an envoy slowly walked towards the Han military camp.
Although the Yue people dressed as a messenger had already reached the effective range, the archers still did not order the shooting. The archers looked at the archers and waited for his orders. The archers hesitated for a while, gestured to the soldiers, and said, "Let the bowstrings be released, just be alone, don't act rashly. I'll report to the Lord, just report to him, just watch him, don't worry about any requests."
The soldiers responded in unison.
When Yang Zilu received the report from this team, she couldn't help but wonder what tricks Shiyong was playing? Send someone to assassinate him? Was Shiyong so stupid that he had no precautions for him after he encountered the assassination of Chaowuyu? Come and negotiate for himself? Under this situation, what else is there to negotiate?
Yang Zilu simply decided to respond to the changes in the same way and ordered the team: "If the messenger of Yue Kingdom asks to see me, you can bring him over."
The "Nuo" team responded and retreated. When he returned to the wooden wall, he found that the guy who might be the messenger of Yue was gone.
The team was pulling a soldier beside him and asked, "Where is that person just now?"
"Who?" the soldier blinked and asked in confusion.
"It's the messenger of Yue Kingdom." The team was glaring at the soldiers and added angrily.
The soldier shrank his head and pointed to the camp gate, "He left, but he left a wooden box under the camp gate. It looked quite exquisite. I wonder what was placed inside?"
The team was scolding: "Why did you let him go?"
The soldier said aggrievedly: "Boss, but what did you say just now to deal with only one person? Tell us not to act rashly. If he leaves, we can't shoot him at this time, right?"
The team was speechless when they heard this, so they turned around in a grievance and got down the wooden wall, so that they could open the gate of the camp but it was enough for a person to pass sideways. They went to get the wooden box and immediately flashed into the camp. However, it was obvious that Shiyong knew that there was no chance, or Shiyong did not expect that the whole process of the team was holding the wooden box, and the Vietnamese army was motionless, without any intention of taking the opportunity to grab the camp gate. The team was getting the wooden box and immediately rushed to the central army tent where Yang Zilu was.
"Master, the envoy of Yue left this wooden box at the camp gate and left." Walking into the central army's tent, the team was walking a few steps forward, immediately knelt down on one knee, raised the wooden box over his head, and said respectfully.
"Oh" Yang Zilu couldn't help but feel curious. What does this move mean? Yang Zilu was waving to the team and said, "Get the wooden box up."
The "Nuo" team responded respectfully, immediately walked up lightly, and placed the wooden box on Yang Zilu's low table.
Yang Zilu did not rush to open the wooden box, but took a closer look at the wooden box. The wooden box was made of relatively expensive sandalwood, but this price was not too expensive and could only be regarded as used by ordinary nobles. However, the carving was good, with exquisite patterns everywhere, and the four sacred beasts, such as the Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermillion Bird, and Black Tortoise, were carved on the four holy beasts. The price of the wooden box was only 300 yuan at most, and it was impossible to add more.
The more Yang Zilu read, the less he could not understand it. What did Songyong put in the wooden box worth at most 300 yuan? Yang Zilu had just pressed her hands on the seam between the box and the lid of the box. The bank of bamboo on one side suddenly shouted: "No."
Yang Zilu was stunned for a moment, turned her head and asked Canzhu, "Canzhu, what's wrong?"
Canzhu said with a serious expression: "I just remembered the techniques of the mechanisms, and some of them are quite wonderful, such as opening the box and shooting out a few poisonous arrows immediately. I am afraid that the tongue will make some conspiracy here, so please let me open it on my behalf."
When Yang Zilu heard this, her face changed slightly and she hurriedly moved her hand away from the wooden box. That's not all, Yang Zilu stood up and said at least fifteen steps away from the wooden box before speaking. "Canzhu, this is probably not good. If there is a mechanism in the box, you may be damaged. I will transfer a prisoner to open it."
When Canzhu heard this, he raised his head confidently and said, "Don't worry, Lord. Although Canzhu dare not say that he is the number one swordsman in the world, it is still a matter that cannot be easier than climbing the sky if he wants to hurt me by mere mechanisms. Why bother to find a prisoner to open the box? It took less than an hour to talk about it. Is it so troublesome?"
Yang Zilu hesitated for a while, nodded and said, "Okay, but Canzhu, you must be careful."
"Don't worry, Lord, the mechanism that can hurt me, Canzhu has not been made yet," Canzhu said confidently, and after that, he let the nearby guards stay away from him.
Although Can Zhu is confident that he can not hurt in front of the mechanism, it does not mean that he is confident that he can not hurt others. Can Zhu slowly pulled out the long sword from his waist, the long sword made of steel, and as soon as he was out of the scabbard, it immediately made a crisp "sonorous" sound.
The nearby guards immediately looked at the long sword in Canzhu's hand with scorching eyes. This is the top hundred swords that can be ranked among the top hundred in the world. There are so many swords in the world, at least 40 to 50 million. There are not ten thousand swords that can be called swords, and there are nine thousand nine hundred and nine hundred nine hundred and nine hundred and nine hundred and nine hundred and nine hundred and nine hundred and nine hundred and nine hundred and nine hundred and very powerful swords.
Canzhu swayed the sword flat and then stabbed forward. The small section of the sword tip of the long sword was penetrated into the wooden box. This sword technique alone made people amazed. The seams of the wooden box were just so large, smaller than the hair, but Canzhu not only entered the seams with just one sword. Moreover, judging from the extent of the sword tip, the long sword had not damaged the wooden box anyway.
"Okay" the guards in the tent couldn't help but applaud.
Although Yang Zilu did not applaud with the guards and the others, her face still showed a look of exclamation.
Canzhu was very satisfied with this, and a proud smile immediately appeared on his face. Canzhu lifted the sword up with his hand and slowly opened the wooden box. However, the hidden arrows and poisonous needles that made people nervous appeared. Nothing appeared.
What made the others even more strange was Canzhu's face. Canzhu's face was so weird at first, and he didn't know what he saw. Then a trace of anger flashed in Canzhu's eyes. Canzhu pulled back his sword, and with a "bang", the wooden box closed again.
Yang Zilu asked curiously: "Cancegzhu, what is inside?"
When Canzhu heard this, he opened his mouth and finally said with a strange expression: "This..., hey, you should watch it yourself."
When Yang Zilu heard this, she couldn't help but feel curious. She immediately came to Canzhu and opened the wooden box. Yang Zilu and Canzhu's expressions changed almost exactly the same. At first, her face was indescribable, and then endless anger appeared on her face.
What exactly did the tongue in this wooden box put in?
