"How come the time has come? Duke, there is no problem if we delay it for one more day."
The reason why the reinforcements were able to be deceived for two days was because at the beginning of the establishment of the Kaifeng regime, they severely attacked the Red Coat Army and killed Yang An'er. At this moment, except for Wanyanbi's department, which was directly under military pressure, the other departments were not nervous enough, let alone aware of the matter of life and death.
It was also because Guo Ning and others controlled the city too quickly, so there was no big disturbance inside and outside the city. When the reinforcements arrived, there were no traces of fighting at all, so they never expected that the city had changed hands.
Another reason is naturally that Guo Ning and others released no less than five or six versions of the rumor in two days.
Those rumors were generally based on stories told by Guo Ning based on his own dream memories. In addition, some soldiers adapted the contents based on the popular hospital texts in Yidu. There was also Xu Jin himself who took the records of the Recording Department to handle the case. Made up jokes.
Guo Ning also made preparations for the use of force. He always asked Ni Yi and a hundred cavalry to lie in ambush near the south gate of the city, ready to make surprise attacks and disrupt the enemy at any time. As a result, for two whole days, six teams of reinforcements arrived before and after them. Most of their attention was attracted by this story. It can be seen that snooping into the privacy of important people is human nature and cannot be curbed.
Xu Jin felt the deepest feelings about this, so he had the strongest confidence in continuing to contain and deceive the enemy.
But Guo Ning shook his head.
He clicked on the eucalyptus table: "It can't be delayed for a day, it will be an hour at most."
Only then did Xu Yan notice that Guo Ning was holding a charcoal pen and drawing two thick lines on the map.
Two thick lines caught his eye, and Xu Jin immediately reacted: "Both Wanyan Wuli and Nahe Herun are here? It's faster than expected?"
At this time, Peng Yibin was coming in from outside the hall. Hearing Xu Jin's words, he suddenly became nervous.
He took three steps at a time and ran to the table to take a look. Then he heard Guo Ning say:
"The spies came to report that there were five thousand troops marching in a hurry to the west. There were still more than ten miles away from Guide Mansion. That was the headquarters of Dang Kou Duwei Wanyan Wuli. To the southeast, there were more than three thousand infantry. After passing the Suiyang Canal, under the banner of Zhenwu Captain Naheherun. Once these two captains arrived, they joined the six teams of more than 5,000 people stationed outside the city in advance, making a total of more than 13,000 people... …Kaifeng’s food and supplies are scarce, and these more than 10,000 people probably account for more than half of the dispatchable troops around Kaifeng.”
Having said this, Guo Ning laughed a few times: "If we deal with them, Kaifeng Mansion will be as empty as Guide Mansion before."
The two lieutenants arrived early!
Once these two people arrive, the garrison under the city will have a backbone, and they will definitely take positive actions. And the only people we use to control Guide Mansion and show off on the outside are only soldiers in their early 200s!
What else are you thinking about Kaifeng Mansion at this time? Isn't the most empty thing in front of me the Guide Mansion that was captured with only two hundred people?
Peng Yibin was about to jump off his feet, but Guo Ning actually had enough time to continue planning:
"However, it will not be easy for us to deal with them alone. The two captains are both veteran generals and have a way of running the army. They are not like ordinary small soldiers. Once they arrive, we only need to let the military judge inside and outside. After walking around in a circle, the troops who arrived earlier will no longer be able to relax."
Guo Ning walked outside the hall and looked at his friends who were preparing horses and weapons in the yard: "After the two Chinese armies arrive, the scouting horses that should be sent out will be sent out immediately, and the real news from the front line may be obtained at any time. In addition, these two If the captain wants to enter the city, we can't stop him. Once he is blocked by force, there will be flaws."
The sweat on Peng Yibin's forehead flowed over his eyebrows and seeped into his eye sockets causing pain. The palms of his hands were also sweaty, so he had to retract his palms into the sleeves of his robe and wipe them again and again: "As a second general, I naturally want to enter the city... I have to stop them!"
Guo Ning smiled and asked: "How to block it?"
"I'd like to trouble Mr. Xu to come forward and invite the two captains to enter the city for the banquet with only their trusted followers. According to their identities, there are about a hundred soldiers accompanying them...or two hundred. I will lead my troops to set up an ambush in the city. Kill these two people with just one breath, then take their heads and go out of the city to intimidate the enemy in order to drive them away!"
"You want Lao Xu to deceive Wanyan Wuli and Nahe Herun in person? Are you responsible for setting up an ambush and raid? What about me?"
Guo Ning pointed at himself: "How can you do this without me? When it comes to fighting on the battlefield, are you my opponent?"
Peng Yibin stared at Guo Ning for a long time.
Guo Ning smiled and asked, "Why, you look down on my skills?"
Peng Yibin let out a long sigh and stamped his feet: "My lord, you are an extraordinary person and can accomplish extraordinary things. Therefore, you have been able to achieve success in all the dangerous military expeditions. But your identity is different after all. Now there are hundreds of thousands of officials." Soldier, the future of millions of people depends on you, why do you need to step forward for such a dangerous plan?"
Not long ago, he was half-jokingly planning to throw a huge boulder down the mountain and kill Guo Ning in the mountains. But in the past few days, as he marched with Guo Ning, he felt that this young man did not have the airs of a big shot, and was as simple as an ordinary soldier, no different from Peng Yibin's comrades who lived and died in the mountains.
Guo Ning was coming to Guide Mansion, and Peng Yibin made a big promise of leading the horse and whip, so he naturally had to follow. But he had been holding back his words for a long time, and now he finally couldn't help it: "This raid on Guide Mansion may seem dangerous, but in fact the two hundred elite cavalry are brave and sharp, and can deal with it calmly even if they encounter ten times the enemy. What's more, the ability to spy on opportunities and the courage to take risks are exactly the strengths of the Duke. But..."
"Not really..."
Peng Yibin cut off Guo Ning's words: "But now that the main reinforcements have arrived early, the two sides are greatly outnumbered, and we must use dangerous tactics to win... Why are you joining in the fun? We subordinates can take risks, why should you take this risk? What? Everything has to be done by the Lord personally risking the enemy, what else do we need to do? Unless we are all dead! We are all trash!"
"I……"
"My lord, please listen to me and lead dozens of cavalry out of the city quickly. Before the enemy's main force arrives, move to a safe place. If our ambush succeeds, the enemy army is likely to fall into chaos. When the time comes, my lord, you will observe the situation and make a decision." It’s appropriate to move or stop, advance or retreat!”
While Peng Yibin was gasping for breath, Guo Ning said with a smile: "I guess that the reinforcements arrived early and may have become suspicious of the situation in Guide Mansion. If I leave the city now, I will be targeted by the Jin Army's sentries. .”
"Well, that's safer than staying in the city!"
At the same time that Peng Yibin was furious, he was in the Suiyang Old City military camp a few miles south of Guide Mansion.
A deputy general pointed fingers and explained in detail the big scandal that happened in Guide Mansion.
He was very eloquent and cautious. After speaking for a while, he stopped, turned around and asked Pu Hude: "Isn't that right?"
Pu Hude sometimes nodded, sometimes coughed in embarrassment.
It turns out that Xu Jin had many versions spread abroad, and the soldiers inquired about it privately, and then passed it on orally, making the story contain more elements created by the soldiers themselves.
The story is indeed richer and more lively, but on the other hand, it has truly broken away from the original ups and downs and started to develop in three directions. So much so that when the deputy general was narrating, several listeners occasionally swallowed their saliva and made gurgling sounds.
After the deputy general finished speaking in one breath, he felt his mouth was dry and wanted to ask for a glass of water. He also saw that the first three generals looked strange, so he knelt down and did not dare to move.
"hey-hey……"
The sneering man was about thirty years old, with broad shoulders and a round waist, and a beard all over his face. His sitting posture was like a mountain, and he was extremely powerful. This person is none other than Haozhou guard general Naheherun, the Zhenwu captain of the Kaifeng imperial court.
Hearing Nahe Herun sneer again and again, Wanyan Wuli, who was sitting next to him, turned pale and suddenly shouted: "Get out!"
Wanyan Wuli was thick and short, like a thick iron stake. When he opened his mouth, he was like a huge thunder that echoed in the military tent. More than a dozen generals were horrified by his drink. They all knelt down and kowtowed before exiting the tent.
Wanyan Wuli turned to Nahe Herun: "Your people believed it too! These thieves not only deceived our army!"
And Nahe Herun continued to sneer: "After our troops arrived at Guide Mansion, they were very happy to hear your news! Your generals dared to add fuel to the fire in front of us, and they simply took it as amusement! This is not stupid, what the hell? yes?"
Wanyan suddenly stood up and glared at Nahe Herun.
There is no fear in Naheherun.
"Come here!" Wanyan shouted loudly.
Soldiers were transferred out of the account.
"Behead that storyteller Xing Xiangtong! Bring his head back!"
The soldiers responded, and in a moment they cut off the head of the man who had just made a vivid statement, put it on a tray and put it in the tent.
The deceased was able to perform marching control, which was considered a big military job. Now he was suddenly beheaded. His eyes were still wide open when he died. He had no idea why he died, and the blood from the broken part of his neck was still flowing from the stream. Extravasation, overflowing the tray.
The third person sitting upright in the tent looked at the head and sighed.
"You two, it's okay! It's okay! If you want to say stupid, naturally I, the defeated general under Ding Haijun, is the stupidest. I just ask you two to restrain your subordinates and don't let those ridiculous words continue to spread. I am completely Yan Bi appreciated it."
The third person was Wanyan Bi who had escaped from the Dangshan battlefield.
At this time, he was a little thinner, and his eyes were bloodshot. It was obvious that he had been running back for two days, which was very hard: "I have set up many checkpoints on the east road of Guide Mansion. Akari Most of the checkpoints were washed away, leaving only two secret posts. According to their reports, the group of people who stole the city are not large in number, but they are extremely elite and must be good players in the navy!"
Nahehe nodded: "Such elite light soldiers must be followed by heavy troops."
Wanyan Wuli said in a deep voice: "Ding Haijun has occupied the city for two days, and his successors will arrive at any time. We must take back the city immediately. Otherwise, Guide Mansion will change hands and the gates of Kaifeng will be opened; all of us will be the ones who will perish. !”
"Does that need to be said? Send an order to all the ministries to quickly prepare ladders and set out to attack the city within an hour!"
