Chapter 718 Encircling Bian Xiang(1/2)
"Thank you, fellow villagers, don't worry, we will make the decision for you and let these thieves pay the price for the evil deeds they have done." Lu Junyi said to the people who escorted Xiang Zhong and Xu Yue.
"Thank you, General." The people bowed.
Lu Junyi turned his head and said to Suo Chao, "Press Xiang Zhong, Xu Yue and Zhang Xiong to the cross interface to ask for revenge for the people."
"Yes." Suo Chao responded and led his troops to take Xiang Zhong and Xu Yue away.
Afterwards, Lu Junyi asked the soldiers to shout along the street with gongs, and asked the people to go to the intersection to see Xiang Zhong, Xu Yue and Zhang Xiong were executed.
An hour later, Xiang Zhong, Xu Yue and Zhang Xiong were taken to the intersection and beheaded under the gaze of the people.
The moment their heads fell to the ground, all the people around them cheered, and then the sound of firecrackers rang everywhere in Taiyuan City.
Lu Junyi and other generals also saw the execution of Xiang Zhong, Xu Yue and Zhang Xiong. Seeing the cheering of the people, Lu Junyi and the generals around him laughed in their hearts.
"General Lu, Taiyuan City has been taken down, we can concentrate on dealing with Bian Xiang." Zhu Wu said to Lu Junyi.
"The military advisor said it well."
Lu Junyi nodded softly and said, "Let's take a break here today, incorporate the surrendered troops, and set out early tomorrow morning to deal with Bian Xiang."
"That's great." Zhu Wu nodded.
Lu Junyi turned his head and looked at Pei Xuan, saying, "I will leave the matter of General Pei's recruitment of the surrendered troops to you. You can complete them as soon as possible, and we will set out tomorrow morning."
"As for the order," Pei Xuan said, and finally left.
It was not the first time Pei Xuan had the inclusion of the surrendered army, so he did not have much effort to persuade the surrendered army to be surrendered. Lu Junyi appointed Suo Chao, Shun, Sun Li and Pei Xuan to lead the incorporated surrendered army.
The next morning, Lu Junyi left 10,000 soldiers to protect the city by Taiyuan officials, and then led a large army to the Bian Sui Army in Jinshan.
On Jinshan, since Bian Xiang fought with the army led by Hu Yanzhuo that day, the two armies have been in a stalemate, and no one has easily launched an attack.
Huyanzhuo Camp.
Hu Yanzhuo was patrolling the camp with his soldiers. Suddenly, a soldier came to report, "Report to General Hu Yan, General Lu has sent someone."
"Bring it quickly." Hu Yanzhuo said.
The soldiers went to bring the people sent by Lu Junyi, and Hu Yanzhuo asked, "How is the situation with General Lu?"
The soldiers sent by Lu Junyi to report the message said, "General Lu has taken Taiyuan County and is currently leading his troops here, preparing to attack Bian Xiang with you."
Hu Yanzhuo was overjoyed after hearing this and said, "When will he arrive?"
"At the latest tonight, General Lu said that he will launch an attack at midnight to make you ready for the attack," said the soldier who reported the message.
"You go and tell General Lu, I will prepare in advance." Hu Yanzhuo said.
"yes."
After the soldiers who reported the news saluted, they immediately got on their horses and left.
Hu Yanzhuo said to Yang Zhi, Xu Ning and other generals: "You should prepare the soldiers immediately and cooperate with General Lu to solve Bian Xiang in the evening."
"Yes." Yang Zhi, Xu Ning, Li Ying and other generals responded.
At night, at the hour of Hai.
Bian Xiang’s camp was worried in his big tent, because he and Hu Yanzhuo had been in a stalemate for many days, but they could not find a good way to repel the Song army, so they were very anxious.
At this time, the deputy general Yu Deyuan walked in from outside, and Bian Xiang asked, "How are the soldiers?"
"It's quite stable, there's no problem." Yu Deyuan said.
Bian Xiang pointed to the marching chair next to him and let Yu Deyuan sit down. Then Bian Xiang said, "The King of Jin sent us to retreat to the enemy, but we have been in a stalemate here for many days and have no progress at all. If we continue like this,
, I'm afraid King Jin will feel dissatisfied with us."
Yu Deyuan nodded in agreement and said, "What the Prime Minister said
Yes. Now the King of Jin is surrounded by some female villains, especially the Prime Minister, who was Fan Quan and Zhong Qing, who advised King of Jin to surrender to the Liao Kingdom, regarded the Prime Minister as a thorn in his eyes. This time, they persuaded King of Jin to surrender to the Liao Kingdom, but were blocked by the Prime Minister.
I must have a greater grudge against the Prime Minister. If we cannot repel the Song army as soon as possible, they will definitely make trouble in front of the King of Jin and say bad things about the Prime Minister. If the King of Jin believes their slander, it will be very unfavorable to the Prime Minister.
"
"I know what you said, but Hu Yanzhuo is taking precautions tightly at the moment, so we don't have any chance at all, what can we do?" Bian Xiang sighed and said.
Yu Deyuan thought for a while and said, "Prime Minister, since we cannot repel the Song army from the front, why don't we find a way from other places?"
"Looking out a solution from other places!"
Bian Xiang looked at him and asked, "Tell me clearly."
Yu Deyuan said: "There are many villages around Jinshan. We choose a village to ambush in advance, and then release the news and say that we want to slaughter the village. After the Song army received the news, they will definitely come to rescue each other. At that time, we will
You can take the opportunity to destroy them."
"But what if Song Jun doesn't come?"
Bian Xiang said, "Hu Yanzhuo is a famous general. He will not be fooled easily."
Yu Deyuan said, "If they don't come, then we will really kill all the people in that village, and then we will choose the next village as an ambush. The Song army saw that we killed all the people in the previous village.
Then you know that what we are telling is not a lie, so the second time we will definitely send troops to rescue them, and we can encircle and suppress the troops they came to rescue."
"No."
Bian Xiang said very firmly: "I, Bian Xiang, are not those Green Forest robbers who kill innocent people indiscriminately. They will never treat innocent people as unjust deceased to deal with the Song army."
Yu Deyuan said, "Prime Minister, you don't care about that much now. If you don't repel the Song army as soon as possible, if King Jin really listens to Fan Quan, Zhong Qing and others, then you will be in danger.
, maybe even my life cannot be saved.
Therefore, the most urgent task now is how to repel the Song army. As for those people, they will die if they die, and they will not suffer any loss to us anyway."
Bian Xiang turned his head and glared at Yu Deyuan, which scared Yu Deyuan, and said, "Prime Minister..."
"I would rather be beheaded by the King of Jin than pave the way for my future with the lives of innocent people."
Bian Xiang said firmly: "I hope this is the last time I heard you say this. If you say this again in the future, don't blame me for turning against you."
Yu Deyuan originally intended to please Bian Xiang, but unexpectedly he made a bored thing and felt very uncomfortable. However, Bian Xiang's official position was higher than that of him, so he didn't dare to lose his temper at him, so he had to stand up and respond in a low voice.
yes.
"You go down first, I'll think about it carefully." Bian Xiang had no intention of discussing with him anymore, and waved his hand and asked him to go down first.
Yu Deyuan came out of Bian Xiang's tent, turned his head and looked at it, and said in his heart: "I'm all my heart and thought about it for your own good. I'm really ungrateful. If the King of Jin blames him, I see what you do.
."
Just when Bian Xiang asked Yu Deyuan to come out of the tent, Lu Junyi had already led his troops to a place only ten miles away from their camp.
"Xiao Yi, take some people to explore the way, and kill if there is a secret whistle." Lu Junyi asked the army to stop and said to Yan Qing.
Yan Qing took one hundred brothers from his subordinates to get off the horse and took advantage of the night to get into the woods. Because walking on the big road is easy to be discovered, it is safer to walk on the woods.
"Let all brothers rest on the spot and restore their physical strength." Lu Junyi said to Suo Chao.
"yes."
Suo Chao immediately conveyed Lu Junyi's orders, and all the soldiers began to rest on the spot.
After about half an hour, Yan Qing returned with his brothers and said to Lu Junyi: "Report to General, the villain and others have already solved all the open, secret, and patrol teams arranged by the anti-army."
"They didn't find it?" Lu Junyi asked.
"No." Yan Qing said.
Lu Junyi
Later, he said to the generals beside him: "General Suo, General Wu, you bring 20,000 troops from the left, General Wei, General Zhang, you bring 20,000 troops from the right, and rushed to Bian Xiang's camp together at midnight.
."
"Abide by the orders of humble duties."
Suo Chao, Wu Shun, Yu Shin, and Zhang Jian Yingdao, and then left with 20,000 soldiers.
After they left for about a quarter of an hour, Lu Junyi and Zhu Wu also led the army to Bian Xiang's camp.
At the same time, Hu Yanzhuo, who was directly in front of Bian Xiang's camp, also led an army of 30,000 to approach Bian Xiang's camp.
Bian Xiang thought hard in the tent for a long time but did not think of a good idea. He felt particularly bored and said to the soldiers around him, "Go and get me some wine, I want to drink."
The soldier went to bring him a jar of wine. Bian Xiang sat down. The soldier poured him a bowl. He picked it up and drank it all in one breath. The soldier saw that he was drinking too urgently and was worried that he would not be able to bear it.
, said, "Prime Minister, drink slowly and be careful of your health."
Bian Xiang waved his hand gently and said, "It's okay, you can fall down."
The soldier knew that he was upset, so he didn't persuade him anymore. He poured him another bowl, and Bian Xiang drank it all in one breath.
In this way, Bian Xiang quickly drank a jar of wine one by one. Although he was not drunk, his face began to turn red.
"Go and get me another jar." Bian Xiang said.
"Prime Minister, you have drunk a jar and can't drink it anymore. If you drink it again, you will get drunk." The soldier said.
Bian Xiang said, "Don't worry, I have a good alcohol tolerance, I just drink it for two or three jars, too..."
ah!
