The news that Xu Daofu led thousands of boat divisions to leave did not escape the eyes of the elite scouts of the Qiaoqi Army. From the moment Xu Daofu left Sun En's temporary camp, he raised his arms and summoned the troops of Lu Xun's old left army camp to attack The scenes of the gathering at Zedahu had already been carefully reported by Pang Bai's Jinyiwei, who was instigating the rebellion, to the surrounding Knight Riders who were responsible for surveillance. In less than half an hour, the two pieces of military information fell into Xu Zongwen's hands.
"Lord, it seems that the Sun thief is going to kill the fish and defeat the net. We have to guard against it!" Zhuge Kan was very worried after seeing the military situation. According to Xu Daofu's idea, it is really possible for him to cross the lake and go to Yangxian. He succeeded!
Xu Zongwen chuckled and broke the serious atmosphere. He looked at the generals and explained in detail: "Before sending troops to Wucheng, I have ordered Tian Luo to guard Pogangdu. Here you can see the movements of the river. Not only can you report to the imperial court, but you can also Block the enemy and directly expose the enemy's target of attacking Jiankang!"
"But my lord, compared with Xu Daofu, Tian Luo's troops must be insufficient, in case the whole army is annihilated!" Liu Yu did not care about his superiority at this time, and directly intervened. His current identity is Zheng Peking University The Sima of the General's Office is a subordinate of General Zhengbei and is not an official of the imperial court.
Xu Zongwen asked Zhang San to take out the sheepskin map. He summoned the generals to come forward, then pointed to the southeast corner of Yangxian and the edge of the lake and continued: "This place is called Zhangputing, guarding the ferry of the lake. Before our army departs, Xu Wen's troops are ordered to be there. The ambush here was originally to prevent the enemy from cutting off our retreat, but now that Xu Daofu is about to collide with us, whether we live or die, it is none of our business!"
"Hahaha..." Before Xu Zongwen finished speaking, there was a roar of laughter in the prefect's mansion.
When Zhuge Kan heard that Xu Zongwen had made arrangements, he felt relieved. It seemed that Xu Daofu had fallen into the trap this time.
Speaking of which, Xu Daofu and Xu Zongwen are really similar. When Xu Zongwen first proposed the strategy of bypassing Yanzhou and raiding Luoyang in Linzi, no one thought it was feasible?
But now that Xu Daofu actually thought of a sneak attack on Jiankang, Zhuge Kan had to look at it differently!
No wonder this person was mentioned many times in the Lord's letter. Xu Daofu was really a gambler!
"Okay, take a good rest tonight. We will send out troops to encircle and suppress Sun En tomorrow. The people of Sanwu Land have suffered enough harm. It is time for this Tianshi Dao rebellion to end. Send an order to closely monitor Sun En's movements. We must not Let the cooked duck fly!" Xu Zongwen slapped the wooden table and the sound shook the roof tiles. Everyone looked stern and nodded in agreement!
After the generals withdrew one after another, Xu Zongwen picked up a copy of the document on the wooden case and read it carefully: "Gu Yuezhi, the prefect of Wu County, died in battle, what a man he was!"
Xu Zongwen dipped his pen in thick ink and wrote in his memorial to the court: Mr. Yuan, the prefect of Wu County, has extraordinary talents, is not afraid of major events, is loyal and courageous, and fights for justice even to the death.
If you live up to your orders and fight to the death of your country, you can be called a national warrior!
Xu Zongwen has said what needs to be said. As for what official position or posthumous title should be awarded, that is a matter for the court and has nothing to do with him.
In addition to publishing Yuan Yuezhi's obituary, Xu Zongwen also had several large piles of military debris to deal with. He had no choice but to let Xi Jian, the commander-in-chief, do it himself. Guo Shang was ordered to count the casualties of the soldiers and the savings in the arsenal and granary. , don’t care at all!
"Report! Ma Yi from Haixi Company wants to see you." Xu Zongwen finished processing a military report and handed it to Zhang San. Just as he was about to send it out, a personal guard came in to report.
Haixi Company, Sima Yi?
"I remember that second brother Zhuge mentioned that the late emperor was sent out of the city by Liu Jinu to avoid trouble?" Xu Zongwen tilted his head and asked Zhang San.
Zhang San shook his head and replied truthfully: "My subordinates don't know either, maybe Liu Sima was negligent!"
Xu Zongwen sighed. He felt that this matter was not simple. He ordered people to bring Sima Yi in, and asked Zhang San who was about to go out to find Liu Yu for questioning.
"Take the person to the back hall and don't let anyone bump into him." Xu Zongwen called Zhang San the moment he was about to step out.
"promise!"
Kuaiji County, Qiantang County.
Since King Sima Daozi of Kuaiji was executed for his rebellion, Kuaiji was transformed into a county. At that time, Wang Ningzhi, the internal historian of Kuaiji, had been captured and killed by Sun En for a long time. The Wang family in Kuaiji was almost wiped out. However, Wang Ningzhi’s wife Xie Daoyun was extremely special. She was escorted by Fan Chongmin to Qiantang for resettlement because she scolded Sun En at the gate of Shanyin City.
"How have you been these days, madam?" Fan Chongmin, who was guarding Qiantang, had a habit of taking a walk in the backyard after dinner. He would also take a look at the small courtyard where Xie Daoyun was imprisoned, and ask the guard about Xie Daoyun's situation. To prevent her from thinking about committing suicide and following her late husband and family.
When the guard saw Fan Chongmin coming, he was already not surprised. He bowed first and then replied: "General, Madam has already thought about it. She has neither made a fuss nor thrown anything in the past few days. She seems to be quite peaceful."
"Yeah, that's good." Although the guard's answer reassured him a lot, Fan Chongmin's face didn't look much better, but his green color turned into gray. The situation was not good at this time!
Outside the city, tens of thousands of people and Jin troops were besieging the city. It was unknown how many people had evil intentions inside the city. The battle situation in Wu County was unknown. Fan Chongmin was extremely worried!
"General, someone wants to see you." Fan Chongmin sighed and walked out of the backyard with his hands behind his back. Before he had taken a few steps, a porter in front of him hurried forward.
When Fan Chongmin heard that someone wanted to see him, he wanted to get out of the way. Who could have eaten enough in the middle of the night?
"Wait a minute, who did you just say wanted to see me?" Fan Chongmin called to the concierge. The name Ding Tai seemed familiar!
yes! Isn’t the Qian Tang Ling of the imperial court called Ding Tai?
"General, this is Ding Tai. A man named Ding Tai has asked to see you. He said he has something good to offer to you, General."
"Let this Ding Tai come in!" Fan Chongmin felt that this matter was a bit strange. Ding Tai had always been on the list of people wanted by the army. He couldn't even run away, but now he took the initiative to send him to his door? Isn’t this the birthday girl hanging himself? Are you tired of living?
Qiantang County Government, signed in the room.
"Dingtai has met General Fan!"
"Are you Qian Tangling Dingtai?"
"If it's true, I'll be the person in charge of the Qian Tang Ding family, Qian Tang Ling appointed by the imperial court."
Fan Chongmin looked at the scholar-looking man in front of him with some doubts, but he had not made up his mind to deal with it immediately, because he still didn't know what the purpose of Ding Tai's trip was.
Ding Tai was not as restrained as the guests. He found a futon and sat down directly. He looked left and right, sizing up the familiar signing room. He seemed to be his owner, and he didn't pay attention to Fan Chongmin in front of him at all.
The more calm Ding Tai became, the more uneasy Fan Chongmin became. He couldn't help but ask first: "I don't know why Ding Fujun suddenly visited the place? Don't you know that our army has already mapped out your plans and wanted you in all directions?" ? You didn’t run for your life, but instead took the initiative to surrender. Do you really think that the sword of my holy religion is harmful?"
"Hahahaha——" Ding Tai's reply to Fan Chongmin was nothing else, but a burst of laughter, a wild laugh, a wild and uninhibited laugh!
Hearing the noise, the rebels outside the door were about to come in to arrest someone. Fan Chongmin shouted: "What are you doing? I am just a helpless scholar. Do I, the general, still need your help? Without my help, any No one is allowed in!"
The soldiers were yelled at and were at a loss what to do. Their minds were buzzing and they had no idea where they had offended the general. However, they did not dare to disobey because they were different from the general. They could only accept the anger and had to respectfully close the door.
"Mr. Ding Fu, are you too rude?" Fan Chongmin, no matter how good-tempered he was, couldn't bear it anymore.
Seeing that Fan Chongmin was trying his best to suppress his anger, Ding Tai stopped pretending. He took out a piece of folded cloth from his wide sleeves and unfolded it under Fan Chongmin's gaze.
Soon, a dark and blood-stained flag was displayed in front of Fan Chongmin. Ding Tai took a step back and stood up straight: "General Fan, this is the flag of Sun Yi, the general of Sun thief's tent. General Fan. Being besieged in the city, I didn't know how fast the situation in Sanwu was changing. A few days ago, General Zhengbei personally led 20,000 elite troops to kill Sun Yi in Kunshan. Now the two armies are facing each other in Wu County. I believe who will win and who will lose. I believe the general knows better than me! "
"I came here today for no other reason than to give the general a great fortune. That's why I risked my life to persuade the general to return to the right path and stay away from the traitors!" Ding Tai said and sat down again. go back.
Ding Tai's voice was already loud, and the news coming out of his mouth was more shocking than the last. It was like a big stone was suddenly thrown into Fan Chongmin's already turbulent heart, making Fan Chongmin's heart struggle even more!
General Sun Yi was defeated! The Heavenly Master is in a bad situation!
"This, this, this must be your nonsense, your attempt to deceive people, you are deceiving this general!"
Ding Tai said calmly: "Sun Yi's general flag was sent to Qiantang City by the Jinyiwei under the command of General Zhengbei. Whether the general believes it or not, there must be news about the decisive battle in Wu County before long. By then, general Just wait to be besieged by General Zhengbei’s soldiers!”
Fan Chongmin's final stubbornness was undoubtedly broken by Ding Tai.
Legend has it that the reason why Xu Xiao, the general of the Northern Conquest, was sure to win every battle was because he had a team dedicated to detecting the enemy's situation and countering the enemy's forces. That team had a resounding name - Jinyiwei!
