Bai Wang retreated a few meters away, and the man behind him blocked him, sneered and shook his head: "I have heard for a long time that Eunuch Chang is good at martial arts and is brave and aggressive. But today we are not here to fight, and you may not fight. Win!"
However, these words angered Wuzhong. He jumped forward and was about to take action. Chang Yu grabbed him and said to Bai Wang: "My governor, if you have no time to talk nonsense here, you must either retreat to De'an's lair or Go and defend Anqing, while you are wasting your time here with me, you know that Anqing is in danger!"
"Are you bluffing me now?" Bai Wang laughed: "With your few people, it would be a dream to break through Anqing City. No matter how strong your cavalry is, it will be useless here. Let's get to the bottom of the city first!"
"Really?" Chang Yu smiled slightly: "Have you noticed a problem? It is obviously difficult for cavalry to exert its advantage here, but almost all of the governor's troops are cavalry?"
Bai Wang was startled: "Why do you do this even though you know you can't do anything?"
"Because I am showing off." Chang Yu laughed loudly: "Do you know where I came from with so many cavalry and so many war horses?" After a pause, he said: "Of course you can guess it, yes, they are all intruders." Funded by thieves and Tatars! Hundreds of thousands of thieves and more than 100,000 Tatars were beaten by the governor, and each of them fled back to their hometown with their heads in their arms. Bai Wang, do you think you are better than the thieves, or worse? Are the Tatars strong?”
The expression on Bai Wang's face changed after hearing this, and he sighed for a while and said: "You are arrogant after defeating King Chuang and the Tatars. Zuo Liangyu besieged me for several years, which also made me confident. Since I won't surrender, you won't If you retreat, you still have to show your true identity to your subordinates, so let’s talk about it after the fight!”
"Bai Wang, if you continue to fight, you will definitely be defeated!" Chang Yu shouted loudly after hearing this: "If you surrender to the governor now, you will have a bright future, but if you wait until the battle is defeated and then surrender, that will be another matter!"
"I have a bright future in Dashun, why do I have to join you in exchange for a bright future?" Bai Wang said with a mocking look on his face: "We are not the same people at all. In your eyes, I am a thief, but in the eyes of the common people, I am a thief." You are the most cold-blooded and cruel executioners. The chaos in the world and the suffering of the people are all caused by you. I just ask for my life for the people, and I will not hesitate to die in battle..."
Listening to Bai Wang's indignant talk, Chang Yu suddenly felt bored and stopped him. He said with a sarcastic face: "Put away your hypocritical face. Since ancient times, people in rebellion have said that they will bring peace and stability to the people. But once Once you have the power of the soldiers or the throne, your wolfish nature is exposed and you become the executioner who bullies the people. You are not yet in the throne. To be fair, you have done many disgusting things that bully men, dominate women, and take human lives. You don’t know how many of them you have done. ?”
"You..." Bai Wang is not only good at fighting, but also a sharp-tongued master. However, he didn't expect that the little eunuch was even more slippery than him. He revealed his disguise with just one sentence, which made him extremely embarrassed. Fortunately, there were no one around him. Otherwise, I really can’t get off the stage!
"If you don't agree, you won't agree. I've said it all. If you don't listen to me, you will regret it in the future! Let's see you on the battlefield!" Bai Wang snorted coldly and said that he was about to leave with his hands in hand. Wuzhong University He shouted: "Wait a minute!" He turned to look at Chang Yu: "Sir, won't you capture them?"
"Capture us?" Bai Wang was startled and laughed loudly, but the man next to him stared at Mr. Wu with a solemn face and said: "You are a first-rate expert, but you may not be able to defeat me!"
As soon as these words came out, Bai Wang's expression changed and he narrowed his eyes to look at Chang Yu.
Chang Yu was quite confused at this time. Bai Wang asked him to meet and knew that he was brave and famous. How could he not be on guard? Apart from the fact that the man accompanying him was definitely a great master, he definitely had other defense back-ups. If he and Wuzhong teamed up, they couldn't. If Baiwang is captured in a short period of time, the two armies will immediately fall into a stalemate!
"Good riddance!" Chang Yu clasped his fists and handed over his hand. Bai Wang let out a laugh, got on his horse and drove away with his whip. Wuzhong stomped his feet: "Why don't you capture him?"
"It makes no sense." Chang Yu shook his head slightly, turned around and got on the horse and asked Wuzhong: "How sure are you that you can beat the man next to him?"
"I don't need any confidence, just do it...what's the use of saying this now?" Wuzhong looked dissatisfied and jumped on his horse, looking back south: "If there is a chance, I will compete with him!"
"Is it very powerful?" Chang Yu asked, he could see some clues in Wuzhong's solemn eyes.
Wu Zhong hummed: "The killing intent can be freely controlled, majestic and steady as Mount Tai. This is a rare master." Chang Yu was startled: "Why didn't I feel it?"
"That's because the adults' attention is all on the thief leader. This is also the great thing about that master. His murderous intention and murderous spirit can be treated according to people. The subordinates and he confronted each other as soon as they met. We were both present during the whole process. There is no time for tit-for-tat confrontation with others..."
"My day, the more you talk about it, the more mysterious it becomes." Chang Yu curled his lips and said, "You're almost catching up with those who are cultivating immortals."
It was time to return to the city after all this tossing, and Chang Yu was lying on the bed but couldn't sleep. This time, the thunder was loud and the rain was small, so there was such a big fight. The two of them only exchanged a few harsh words before and after the meeting. After the battle, the dark cloud lingered in his heart for a long time. It stands to reason that Chang Yu has met enemy generals in front of the battle several times since he supervised the army. He has even seen big bosses like Li Zicheng and Dorgon, but he has never No one expected Bai Wang to put so much pressure on him.
The reason is because of what Bai Wang said. Did he drift away?
He fought well in the north because the emperor and the court tried their best to cooperate with him. If he wanted money, he would give money, if he wanted food, he would give food, and if he wanted people, he would give him money! As long as you can win the battle and protect the security of Gyeonggi, I will support you no matter how hard you try!
This is harmony.
In addition, there is also the geographical convenience. He is familiar with the terrain in the Gyeonggi area and it is located in the plains. The two armies opened up their posture and started fighting. The battle was based on morale and bravery, and tactics followed.
It can be said that in the several battles in the north, Chang Yu fought with the rhythm.
However, here, the sky is high and the emperor is far away. The local bureaucracy is too serious. Thousands of miles of mountains and rivers, if you want to shock local snakes or settle anything, you have to rely on your own methods.
Although Chang Yu's methods are high, compared with the control of the army and the deployment of personnel in the north, the military food and logistics support are still far behind. In addition, there are mountains, water, and complex terrain here, which is the home of the bandit army. They They won't fight you head-on, they will take advantage of the terrain to make you suffer.
Although Chang Yu had won a series of victories and captured two cities, if you think about it carefully, he almost took advantage of the enemy's unpreparedness. Moreover, if Wang Tizhong and Wang Zamao hadn't surrendered, he might still be fighting against the rebels in Wuhu at this time.
So there was no serious fight with the bandit army at all, it was all about taking advantage.
To put it bluntly, it is the thieves who set the pace now, and Chang Yu is still struggling passively.
You must take the initiative! Unable to sleep, Chang Yu got up and walked to the window. He saw Song Luoshu and Qiao Sanxiu on duty in the yard chatting in a low voice, so he pushed the door open and looked up at the sky: "Is it going to rain?"
"But Taoist Master Fang said there has been no rain in recent days," Song Luoshu and Qiao Sanxiu quickly stood up and replied.
"Besides, you really think of him as a god." Chang Yu curled his lips and murmured: "Just wait for the damn rain, he won't come..." At this moment, the soldiers outside the courtyard knocked on the door and said they were in love. The report is coming.
At this time, the sky was getting brighter. Chang Yu stood in the yard and listened to the story about the war on the West Road. The more he listened, the deeper his frown deepened.
Together, Gao Jie and the three of them were able to beat Li Zicheng so hard that he ran away with his tail between his legs. However, at this time, the bandits took advantage of the terrain to block him outside Anqing City. They fought for several times and suffered heavy losses before they broke through the first blockage!
This may be the advantage of playing at home. No wonder Bai Wang is so confident! Chang Yu was slightly worried. The rebel army was so brave that the progress of the west road was slow. In front of him, Bai Wang was personally blocking the road. It would not be easy for him to defeat them.
The intelligence also came that Li Yan's main force had arrived at the Yangtze River and had sent the Guards and the Shenji Battalion as the vanguard to set off for Anqing. This made Chang Yu feel relieved. On the west road, Li Yan was stationed and Huang Degong, Gao Jie and other powerful generals were assisting. Being able to act alone allowed him to prepare fully for the battle against Bai Wang.
Originally, he wanted to wait for Gao Jie and others to advance to the walls of Anqing City. Bai Wang must have been upset at that time, but it was the best time for him to attack. However, the west road was temporarily blocked and progress was slow. Chang Yu decided not to wait there anymore. Although there was still time for the main attack. Scheduled for the day after tomorrow, but warm up first.
