Outside the tent, Han You was like an ant on a hot pot, feeling a sense of unreasonable palpitations in his heart.
He did not go to any city wall to supervise the battle. This was not his job. He needed to sit in charge of the big tent, so he just sat in charge.
If a layman who does not understand battle formations becomes a general who leads the army, then the only thing he has to do is not to let the layman guide the expert. As long as he can do this, he is considered a qualified temporary general.
The more Han You waited, the more anxious he became.
It was so quiet that as the sun rose, the east wall two miles away made almost no sound.
"Master, something is wrong."
Wang Hai stared at the east wall without blinking. Lu Baichuan and Jiang Zhui had already led people over. They gathered and rushed to the bottom of the city wall with big shields, but they did not hear the "familiar" "battle formation sound." .
When Han You couldn't help but want to leave the tent on horseback, Jiang Chai ran back.
Before anyone arrived, the curse came first.
"Xiaoqi Xiaoqi, damn you are being fooled..."
Before Jiang Zhui ran into the camp, Feng Bai came back on horseback and shouted: "General, this is an empty city, and all of Yizhou is empty."
Han You's expression changed slightly: "Where can I find a flight attendant? Which airline...is it an empty city?!"
It turns out that more and more friends and soldiers came back, and letters came from all three directions: east, west and north.
In the empty city, there were people on the wall. The tied people were gagged and tied behind the city wall. They were all officials from Yizhou and Xia County, as well as their wives, children, and children. They could not move. The rescued people were almost crying. If they were to "attack the city" a few hours later, they would starve to death.
"Zhou Xiao... ran away a long time ago?"
Han You was confused in the wind, and his mind went blank.
Jiang Zhui nodded repeatedly: "Yes, Zhou Xiao is here for you to play with."
"It's for us to play with, for everyone to play with!"
Han You was furious and no longer had the scruples he had before: "Drive all the people back, drive them back to Yizhou. Whoever dares to ink, whoever dares to waste time or show off our military rations, it will be very difficult for him to be convicted of causing trouble." In five days, let Pei Qi investigate for me and find out what’s going on!”
Han You had no reason not to be angry, so he attacked the city and spent a long time alone.
"No reason."
Han You was puzzled: "When Xiang Lun first arrived, didn't he say that he saw a lot of defenders on the city wall? Some of the scouts who passed by were almost shot dead. Those defenders can't just disappear out of thin air."
Duan Qianfeng, who had been accompanying Han You all the time, seemed to have thought of something, and told Jiang Zhui: "Go and ask the people. After the rebel gangsters arrived in Laizhou in the first week, they can do a lot of work."
"What's the meaning?"
"The way to transport soldiers."
"I see." Jiang Zhui slapped his forehead and hurried out of the tent.
News from Yizhou City kept coming back, and Han You could no longer sit still and left the tent on horseback.
The city gates on the east and west sides have been opened. Not to mention the defenders, there are no scarecrows. They are just a group of local civil servants and their children who have been tied up after eight lifetimes of bad luck.
They were riding fast and whipping their whips all the way, and when Han You arrived, he was cursing profusely.
Fu Yuxiang has already taken people to explore the city, and no ghosts have been seen.
"Master."
Fu Yuxiang and Duan Qianfeng, who had been struggling for several hours, came up with the idea: "When the soldiers of Qiongzhou Zhechong Prefecture besieged the city, they saw the defenders on the city wall with their own eyes. They couldn't put on their wings and fly away. They should have fled. We dug a troop transport channel in advance.”
"How long does it take to dig out the encirclement?"
Fu Yuxiang shook his head. He had already sent people to search for the troop transport route before he found it.
Han You was full of evil fire and asked people to bring all the unlucky ones on the city wall over.
Now only the underground troop transportation channel can explain everything. It is definitely impossible to grow wings.
In fact, what Han You couldn't accept was that he was tricked with more than 20,000 people, not that he couldn't accept the way of transporting troops and ran away under his feet.
You must know that when later generations resisted the Japanese dogs, their ancestors also dug tunnels, with a total length of an extremely frightening one hundred and thirty kilometers.
From Yizhou City to the rear of the encirclement, the straight-line distance is at most six or seven kilometers. Nothing is impossible, and it doesn't take much manpower to hide the eyes and ears.
The matter was quickly investigated and the troop transportation route was found. It was in the backyard of the palace. Jiang Zhui also found out from the people. After Zhou Xiao arrived in Yizhou and established a government office, he dug "cellars" every day and went to the mansion whenever he had nothing to do. The people did not take it seriously when it came to foreign transportation.
This means that Zhou Xiao has been studying how to rebel since he arrived in the fiefdom, and he has been preparing for almost a year.
People began to enter the city one after another, and everyone was still cursing. They thought it was a big deal, but it turned out that it didn't happen at all.
Local officials were also brought, including about 200 people from the lower county, and many sons of aristocratic families, and about 500 people including relatives.
The five hundred or so people in the entire city were all tied up tightly and placed on top of the city. As they said, if Han You had been more "cautious" for a day or two, they could have Starved to death.
Zhou Xiao was so righteous that after having them tied up, he forced them to eat until they were full and hold them for as long as possible.
Han You's nose was so angry that he made sure there was no threat in the city and led his people to Prince Qin's Mansion.
As a result, everyone was stunned again when they entered the palace.
The entire palace is like a ruin after the war. Everything that should be demolished has been demolished, and nothing that should be smashed has been left. The tunnel is behind the garden wall at the back of the palace.
"Go down to the tunnel and see where it leads."
Han You didn't dare to delay, and kept urging the soldiers to get down.
After waiting for less than half an hour, the soldiers came out in disgrace. The end of the road was blocked, and there were so many twists and turns that it was impossible to remember the direction and not know where it led.
"broken."
Duan Qianfeng's expression changed slightly: "There is no war at Nanguan. Could it be that the rebel king has led his troops to seize Qiongzhou?"
"Seize Qiongzhou?!"
Han You's heart skipped a beat: "How many troops does he have to take Qiongzhou?"
"I don't know how many troops he has. I only know that Xiang Lun took away half of the imperial guards in Qiongzhou. In such a large city, there are only less than 300 imperial guards and nearly a hundred government officials. Even with the addition of auxiliary troops, it is not enough. Thousands of people.”
Han You's head was buzzing, but Xiang Lun went back. The problem was that this guy only brought a few followers, and all the troops from Qiongzhou were "besieging the city" here.
…………
Chong County is only seventy miles away from Laizhou.
One thousand and five hundred Qingqiu all moved in unison, pulling on the reins. The leader was white-faced and beardless. Different from the other Qingqiu, he was the only one wearing a unicorn robe, with a faint smile on his face, and his thin figure looked a bit awkward. There is no money, and his face is very similar to that of the current emperor.
Zhou Xiao looked at Chongxian County, which was surrounded by fertile fields, waved his hand like a fly, and said softly: "I have long seen that the Chen family is unhappy, so I will massacre them in two quarters of an hour. Go ahead."
"Got the order!"
Zhang Chang, the commander of the palace guards, drew his sword and shouted: "No one in the Chen family will be spared. Don't touch the common people. Kill them!"
"kill!"
The 1,500-meter light cavalry all drew out their long swords and rushed towards Chong County with thunderous momentum.
Zhou Xiao, who had only eight guards left by his side, stretched out: "It's so boring. When will we meet my opponent?"
One of the guards said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, since we are marching north, would you like to inform the brothers in Geying camp?"
"That's fine, but don't come looking for me. Let them go down the mountain and destroy the Sun family. There are too many aristocratic families in the South."
After Zhou Xiao yawned, he smiled slightly and said, "I can't even kill you."
