Chapter 1344: Infernal Affairs stalemate is waiting for help!

Guancheng County was besieged on three sides. Cui Quan's army was defeated in

both wars, losing more than 6,000 soldiers. Cui Quan left 150,000 soldiers to

guard the three gates, and the rest of the army was stationed in the city to

maintain order.

Cui Quan came to the Cishi Mansion and talked about the situation outside the

city with Cui Junchuo and others.

Several people were shocked when they heard this. Cui Junchuo’s face was pale

as paper, "How is it possible? According to you, there are hundreds of

thousands of troops outside the city, and among them are the soldiers and

horses brought by Wang Yu from Suizhou. Doesn’t this mean that the imperial

court has known that we are going to raise troops? But how did the news spread

when the city gate was blocked for more than a month?”

Zheng Shuwu looked depressed and murmured: "It's over! It's over! I knew

today, I shouldn't have listened to your slander Cui Junchuo! Now that

Guancheng County is besieged by the army, what should I do?"

Cui Junchuo glanced at Zheng Shuwu lightly, but didn't say much, because at

this time, he didn't have the mind to argue.

Cui Wenji is old and prudent. He is the oldest of the three, but because he is

well maintained, he is also the one with the best bones. He stroked his beard,

and after a moment of thought, he said:

"It's not time to survive. There are only a hundred thousand troops outside

the city. We have three hundred thousand troops! What's more, the Cui Clan of

Boring and the Zheng Clan of Xingyang have not done their best. We can still

mobilize 50,000 from outside the city. Dark guards and thousands of family

dead men! Besides, the worship of our three families has not been done yet.

With their martial arts, one can count on one hundred! At that time, we will

fight inside and out, and we can definitely make a way out!

But at that time, Li Shimin would definitely not let us go. But a few of us

can go to Turkic, or go to the South Seas islands to live in seclusion, when

the time is right, we can return to the Central Plains! "

After listening, Cui Junchuo and Zheng Shuwu are all bright, and Zheng Shuwu

hurriedly said: "In the opinion of Brother Cui, how should we respond now?"

Cui Wenji muttered: "You and I, first use the flying pigeons to spread the

book, mobilize the secret guards outside, and let them arrive in Zhengzhou as

soon as possible, and then we will wait for opportunities! During this time,

we just need to be careful. The army outside the city is just fine! Outside

our army can't fight, but we can defend as far as the city. With the city wall

to rely on, the hundreds of thousands of army outside cannot attack the city

at all!"

"Yes, yes, yes, let's defend the city first, and when the reinforcements

arrive, we will attack inside and outside to create a ** path! Didn't you

recruit a group of recruits before? Let them defend the city gate, even if the

imperial army is attacking the city, It is not our people who are killed or

injured. With the strength of our families, where can we not dominate?"

Zheng Shuwu nodded after listening.

Cui Junchuo also felt reasonable. He turned to look at Pan Zhenyue, and said:

"Zhenyue, send a new army to guard the city, and the veterans will supervise

the city. The city is under martial law. It is strictly forbidden to gather

people to make troubles. The people’s emotions and encourage them to help us

defend the city! Increase patrols to prevent people from inciting the people

to join the court!"

"Yes! Grandpa! The students will make arrangements~!"

Pan Zhenyue arched his hands and left with Cui Quan!

………………………………

"Hey! Join the army, we didn't go to Luoyang today. This Wei Zuocheng is

really amazing! You said, how did he know that the Xuanjia army and the

comfort enabled them to lead the army to come today~? Join the army, you said

Wei Zuocheng, his old man Does it count if you can pinch it?"

Guancheng County, Dongcheng.

Liu Rengui's team was standing on the top of the city wall to defend the city.

Seeing that there were no outsiders around, Old Feng said in a low voice with

excitement.

Liu Rengui said indifferently: "It must be that girl Li Yu used the telegraph

machine to send messages to Chang'an that day. The Xuanjia Army was

unparalleled in combat strength, and the speed was amazing. From Chang'an to

Zhengzhou, it was less than twice in the case of full march. We can arrive in

the next day. Wei Zuocheng should have calculated the time in private! As for

the pacifier, he must mobilize one hundred thousand soldiers and horses within

two days. It must not be a difficult task!"

"Oh! I thought Wei Zuocheng was an old ** who could pinch and count!"

Feng Wu scratched his head, muttered, and then said: "Hey, join the army, I

just heard that Cui Quan's army met Suizhou Governor Wang Yu outside the West

City Gate, and our army of Governor Governor, and the two sides fought a **

battle. , Cui Quan left six thousand corpses and fled back to the city!"

"Wang Yu? Suizhou is more than four hundred miles away from Zhengzhou. How can

he appear in Zhengzhou now?"

Liu Rengui suddenly became puzzled. After a moment of contemplation, he said:

"Now that Guancheng County is besieged on three sides, the Cui family will

either go out of the city to fight and break a ** road, or stay in the city,

waiting for the reinforcements of the Boring Cui family and Xingyang Zheng

family! But in my opinion, they are more likely to choose the latter. , So

before their reinforcements arrive, we must find ways to get in touch with the

army outside the city, otherwise it is really possible that the Cui family

will escape this time! I will find a way to go back tonight, discuss with Wei

Zuocheng, you help me to cover up hidden!"

Feng Wu nodded and said: "Join the army, don't worry, it's very cold this

night, and no one will come to inspect it. Don't worry, you can go!"

…………………………

Outside the city.

The Xuanjia army and the local state army have set up tents and started to

bury the pot to cook food. Obviously they are planning to camp outside the

city!

South of the city, the Chinese army's big account.

"General Duan, now this Guancheng County is besieged by us on three sides, and

the rebels can hardly fly. I don't know when General Duan plans to attack the

city~?"

Ren Can, the soothing envoy of Henan Road, also came to the Xuanjia Army's

Central Military Account. At this time, he looked at Duan Zhixuan and asked.

Don't think he is a comfort ambassador, but in the face of Duan Zhixuan, he

dare not make any negligence. Duan Zhixuan is among the changes in the Xuanwu

Sect. This is the real Conglong hero!

Duan Zhixuan picked up the tea cup, took a sip, then pondered for a moment,

and said: "We only have 150,000 troops. Although we are not afraid of the Cui

family's coalition forces in the open area, if we want to attack the city with

this person, it is nothing but wishful thinking. Besides, the Xuanjia Army is

only suitable for field battles and is not good at attacking cities.

Therefore, let's besiege and not attack. In two days, General Li's army will

arrive. Then we will discuss the siege!"

"Well! So the best!"

Ren Can and Wang Yu both nodded.

……………………………

It is night without moon.

There are many torches on the upper floors of Guancheng County. Although no

one will attack the city at night under normal circumstances, there are still

many soldiers guarding the upper floors.

Using the excuse of going to the toilet, Liu Rengui sneaked away, avoiding

many patrolling soldiers all the way, and finally came to the house in

Wuningfang in the south of the city.

"Is Liu Canjun back?"

At this time, Wei Zheng and others were not asleep yet, and Wei Zheng asked in

a low voice after hearing a movement from the well.

"It's me! It's me!"

Liu Rengui responded and hurried over. At this moment, a faint candlelight lit

up in the tunnel. Liu Rengui excitedly said to everyone: "Good news! Good

news! In a few days, you should not have to hide." In this tunnel!"

Li Yu's eyes lit up when he heard this, and said, "Brother Liu, is there any

reinforcements here?"

Girls love to be clean. Since moving into this tunnel, the little girl has not

taken a shower for several days, and she feels uncomfortably tight! Besides,

this tunnel is not very ventilated, and with so many people living in it, it

will naturally not smell good. She has really had enough here!

Liu Rengui glanced at Xiao Yu'er with admiration, and said: "Ms. Li Yu is

right, it is indeed the reinforcements from the court! Including the three

thousand Xuanjia army, the 130,000 army mobilized by the Henan Province

comfort envoy, and the Sui Dynasty The 20,000 soldiers and horses brought by

the state governor Wang Yu and more than 150,000 troops have surrounded

Guancheng County! When the army outside the city breaks through the city, you

will be saved, Wei Zuocheng!"

"Ah! Great! Great! The title finally sent an army! We can finally see the sun

again!"

Xiao Yu'er heard the words and cheered.

Wei Zheng shook his head and said, "It's too early to say this. It is

absolutely impossible to conquer the city by relying on the army outside the

city. All this will have to wait until the following army arrives in

Guancheng!"

"The follow-up army? Why did Wei Zuocheng decide that there will be an army

later?"

Liu Rengui said in doubt.

They returned after sending information to the imperial court at Songyue

Temple. As for how the imperial court arranged it, they didn't know!

Wei Zheng smiled slightly and said: "Duan Zhixuan’s Xuan Jia army is highly

mobile and fast in attack. It is very suitable as the forefront of the raid!

Since your Majesty has sent the Xuan Jia army to lead the battle, it is

naturally impossible to lose the following, wait. The appearance of Wang Yu

shows that His Majesty has long been wary of the Cui family. In this battle,

the lineup sent by the court should not be underestimated. The Cui family

cannot win!"

"Well! What Wei Zuocheng said is quite true!"

Liu Rengui nodded thoughtfully.

Xiao Yuer said at this moment: "Wei Zuocheng, since we have reinforcements

behind us, do you think the Cui family will also have reinforcements outside

the city?"

When Wei Zheng heard the words, his eyes sank, and a moment later he looked at

Liu Ren's track: "This question has to be asked Liu Canjun!"

Liu Rengui quickly handed over his hands: "At the end, the general thinks that

the Cui family will definitely have reinforcements~www.mtlnovel.com~ why did

you say this?"

"Returning to Wei Zuocheng, as far as the general knows, the current 300,000

soldiers and horses in the city, except for the young men recruited in the

past few months, are the state capital soldiers and horses and the secret

guards raised by the Cui family. Neither the Xingyang Zheng family nor the

Xingyang Zheng had a single soldier, so the general guessed that they must

have power to mobilize outside the city! And today they chose to guard the

city instead of going out to fight, which just confirmed the end. Will's

guess!"

Liu Rengui clasped his fists and replied.

The atmosphere in the tunnel became solemn again. Wei Zheng stroked his beard

and said in a deep voice: "Now it depends on who of the two reinforcements

arrives in Guancheng first! If the Cui family reinforcements arrive first,

they will definitely go out of the city to patrol. Under the external attack,

the situation is not good!"
