"You don't have to comfort me!" Sha Zha Xiangru raised his head, clenched his teeth, and his eyes were on fire: "After the city is broken, I must tie those Tang dogs to the trees and roast them under the fire, so that they can burn themselves Eat the meat piece by piece."
"It's too early to say this now!" Hei Te Changzhi waved his hand: "After last night's battle, the morale of your troops must have declined, and they won't be able to go into battle unless they rest for a few days. So, you retreat. , how about letting my people come up?"
"Okay!" Although Sha Zha Xiangru was reluctant, he knew that what Hei Te Chang Zhi said was right. He breathed out: "Chang Zhi, you have to be careful. The Tang Dog in the village outside the east gate is very cunning!"
"I will be careful!"
"By the way, how is the situation in Zhouliucheng?"
"It's not too clear! But judging from the known situation, it's not very good!"
"How to say?"
"This is not yet a matter between Master Daochen and Fu Xin. Master Daochen has already led his troops to retreat to Rencun City, established his own shogunate, recruited sergeants under the banner of General You, and established his own army."
"The trouble has actually reached this point? Then His Highness Feng doesn't care about it?" Sha Zha Xiangru was surprised.
"What the hell, I think His Highness Feng is happy to see the results!" Hei Te Changzhi sneered: "Originally, Duke Fu Xin of Zhouliu City covered the sky with one hand, but now there is Master Daochen outside and His Highness Feng inside. . If it were me, I would be so angry that I would die!" It turns out that when the Tang army destroyed Baekje, Onimuro Fuxin recruited the remaining troops and retreated to Zhouliu City. He was the first to start the uprising, and he was a distant relative of the royal family. Regardless of his strength, Still has the highest reputation among everyone. After Fuyu Fengzhang returned to China, he made some moves. It can be said that Onimuro Fuxin lost his sister and lost his army. He originally wanted to use Fuyu Fengzhang's identity to command the heroes, but in the end, although he got the official position of General Zuo, he did not get any benefits. , but instead allowed Daochen to climb to a position where he was on par with himself, so naturally he was extremely unhappy.
"Yes!" Sha Zha Xiangru sighed: "If everyone worked together, the Tang army would have been captured long ago with just the tens of thousands of Tang troops in the city. How could it be like this? By the way, Chang Zhi, what do you think? If the fight continues like this, who will win in the end and who will lose!"
"Who knows, I'm not a Bodhisattva!" Hei Te Changzhi said with a bitter smile: "But if we continue like this, it will definitely be ugly, and we will probably end up fighting with each other!"
Silence fell in the tent, and both of them realized that it was dangerous to continue this topic. After a while, Sha Zha Xiangru stood up: "That's it, I'll leave the east gate to you!"
In Sixian City, there is the Duhu Mansion.
"The Protector is waiting for you upstairs!"
"yes!"
Wang Wenzuo climbed up the spiral staircase, and the carefully polished varnished oak floor under his feet was like a mirror, reflecting his own appearance—a round-neck short robe, a black gauze bun, a neatly trimmed short beard, and a saber hanging on the belt at his waist. Give him the illusion that this is not a battlefield in a foreign country, but a noble residence somewhere in Chang'an, Luoyang, or Yangzhou.
"I am humble enough to pay my respects to the general!"
"Sanlang is here, sit down and talk!"
Like Wang Wenzuo, Liu Renyuan was dressed at this time not so much as a general summoning his subordinates, but as a kind elder receiving a familiar junior. He pointed to a brocade pier next to the table and signaled to others. Sit down and ask, "What are the movements of the bandits outside the city?"
"Judging from the flags, there should be a new group of troops. The original bandits have been replaced!"
"Well! It's not surprising. It's a pity that there are only ten thousand people in the city, and such a good opportunity was wasted!" Liu Renyuan sighed, poured a glass of wine for Wang Wenzuo, and poured another glass for himself: "Sanlang, what do you think right now? How is the situation?"
"My subordinates have humble official positions, so how dare they speak nonsense!"
"Haha!" Liu Renyuan laughed: "There are only you and me now, so there is nothing to be afraid of, just speak out!"
"More than enough self-preservation, not enough progress!"
"You are a young man after all!" Liu Renyuan said with a smile: "Compared to an old man like me, his spirit is much higher!" At this point, Liu Renyuan walked to the window and pushed it open, letting in the cold wind mixed with snowflakes. After walking in, Wang Wenzuo shivered immediately after seeing his bones.
"What a heavy snow!" Liu Renyuan turned around and turned his back to the whistling window: "Baekje is indeed a bitter cold place. It's only October now and it's already snowing all over the sky. If we were in Chang'an, It’s really a refreshing autumn day, it’s time for the Wuling boys to climb high and have fun!”
"What the general is saying is, as the saying goes, it snows in August, and thousands of pear trees bloom. How can Baekje, a bitter and cold place, compare with the beautiful Chang'an!"
"What a wonderful Hu Tian. It snows in August, and thousands of pear trees bloom!" Liu Renyuan's eyes lit up, and he praised with his hands: "I didn't expect that Sanlang could write poems. He is indeed a son of an aristocratic family. Good, good!"
Wang Wenzuo just finished it smoothly, then he remembered that the author of his poem might not have been born yet, so he hurriedly thanked him and asked: "General, isn't the snow a good thing for us? But why did you seem to be a little worried just now? concern?"
"Haha!" Liu Renyuan laughed twice, closed the window again, and returned to the table: "We are defenders of the city. We have a city wall to rely on. Snow is naturally a good thing for us. But don't forget that Goguryeo is in Baekje. It's snowing heavily for us in the north, and it will only get colder in the north. It seems that my Tang Dynasty's conquest of Goguryeo will be even more difficult!"
"Returned without success?" Wang Wenzuo asked, "General, have you got the news?"
Liu Renyuan shook his head: "This time our army crossed the sea to destroy Baekje. In fact, it was just an outpost for the Tang Dynasty to attack Goguryeo. Before sending troops to conquer Baekje, the emperor sent troops to conquer Baekje with Su Dingfang, Qibi Heli, Liu Boying, and Cheng Mingzhen. The four of them were the marching generals of various provinces, and issued an edict to Hebei at that time (Hebei in the Tang Dynasty refers to the North China region, including today's Hebei Province, Shandong Province, Beijing, Tianjin, and parts of Shanxi, Henan, Inner Mongolia, and Liaoning. It was the most economically developed country at that time. , the most densely populated area), Jianghuai tax revenue does not need to be transported to Guanzhong, but directly transported to Youzhou for army deployment, which shows that Datang is bound to win this time!"
The four people Liu Renyuan mentioned, Su Dingfang, Qibi Heli, Liu Boying, and Cheng Mingzhen, except for Zuo Xiaowei general Liu Boying, who was less famous, the other three were all famous generals at the time, especially Qibi Heli, who was famous for his talent. As the Khan of the Qibi tribe, after returning to the Tang Dynasty, he successively attacked Gaochang, Tuyuhun, Qiuci, Western Turks, Tiele, and Goguryeo, and destroyed countless countries. Even Su Dingfang, who had just accomplished the task of destroying the country, was slightly inferior to them. Wang Wenzuo also heard about it during these days in the army, and he couldn't help but ask: "The military power of our Tang Dynasty is so powerful, can it be withstood by a heavy snow?"
