Chapter 49: The East and the West (4K)
When Liu Fan said this to Fazheng, it means that he had already thought about it in his heart that he would leave the battle in the battle of the victory to him.
Fa Zheng was stunned at first, but then he did not shirk responsibility. He immediately took over Liu Fan's military order.
"Only, please order the General of the Central Army to order!"
At this time, Xu Huang and Meng Da, who had just arrived from the front, also happened to see this scene. They looked at each other and quickly squeezed to Fa Zheng, complimenting with a smile.
Looking at Baozhongcheng in the distance, Fa smiled on the front. Listening to the words Xu Huang and the others were sought after, he coughed gently, "What you said is very reasonable. Since you are a young talent with a graceful look, you can't fight against that guard."
After pondering for a moment, "This requires a resourceful general to go against the guard for me, and I will open the city gate!"
"Xiaozhi, I can do this!" I hurriedly squeezed into Fa Zheng's face, and Meng Da patted his chest, "Why do you need to take Gongming and Xiaozhi to take action? I can handle it alone!"
Nodded in agreement, "I don't know what Zi Jing is capable of. There should be no problem with dealing with a city gate guard!"
After hearing what he said, Xu Huang, who was full of fighting spirit and still wanted to fight with Meng Da, suddenly stopped. He thought that this was after all, Fa Zheng was the first time he was in charge of seizing the city, and he should have some ambitions.
Not to mention winning the Baozhong in a blink of an eye, at least he should not want to be defeated. Meng Da was young after all, and had little experience in leading troops. If Xu Huang had made a solemn promise, for the sake of safety, Fa Zheng might let him lead troops to fight.
But after hearing Fazheng's voice at this time, Xu Huang also lost his heart. After all, they were confidants from fellow villagers, and it was understandable that they were caressing each other.
Seeing that Xu Huang stopped fighting, Meng Da also felt proud in his eyebrows. Finally, Fa Xiaozhi gained power, and he also became rich and prosperous. "Xiaozhi, don't worry, leave Bao Zhongcheng to me, I will definitely take it down!"
With his head held high, Meng Da promised with high spirits. Fa Zheng looked at him, nodded slightly, and was not excited. He didn't know whether he believed his words or had no intention of pointing at him to seize the city. He only heard him respond quietly: "Since the guardian of Baozhong City chose to close the city gate, he must not want us to enter Hanzhong."
In this regard, if you cannot lure it down the city, our army may suffer heavy casualties. After all, you have also seen that Baozhong City is steep and solid. If our army attacks for a strong attack, the losses will be extremely heavy. For the sake of the lives of the soldiers, you should plan for a good life!"
He nodded slowly, Meng Dashen agreed, "Xiaozhi's words are a good word. The attack on the city is a mentality. If I just attack hard, even if I win, I will suffer a lot. I have to think of some ways to provoke the general!"
As he said that, Meng Da lowered his head and thought, while walking towards his troops. After all, the soldiers still need to take their lives to attack the city. He told him about this matter and discussed it with the soldiers again!
Although Xu Huang was a little disappointed, it was not much better. After all, the relationship between Fa Zheng and Meng Da was there. At this moment, Fa Zheng, who also looked at Meng Da's departure with a smile, turned around and looked at Xu Huang quietly.
There was still a smile on his face, and Fa Zheng smiled harmlessly. "Dongming thought, is this Baozhongcheng easy to capture?"
His face turned stern. Although Xu Huang knew that Fa Zheng had handed over the task of siege to Meng Da, he still responded honestly to Fa Zheng, "If you only talk about strong attacks, this Baozhong City is a strong city. If you want to capture it, it will be difficult! Shu Huang said nonsense. Zi Jing was not experienced after all. Huang might be more suitable for siege than him!"
"Oh?" Looking at Xu Huang with a smile, Fa Zheng's tone rose slightly. At that moment, Xu Huang was also a little uncomfortable, but he still asked for a fight and said, "Xu Huang would like to ask Mr. to fight and attack Baozhongcheng!"
"Okay! Then let you attack the city!"
The solemn expression suddenly suffocated. Xu Huang stared at Fa Zheng in a daze. He thought he had heard it wrong and wanted to confirm it with Fa Zheng again. Fa Zheng seemed to know what he meant, but he smiled and nodded at him.
His face was overjoyed. At this moment, Xu Huang felt that happiness had come too suddenly. He immediately straightened his back and bowed to Fa Zheng, "Huang will live up to his expectations and will definitely win Baozhongcheng!"
Looking at Xu Huang's excited look, Fa Zheng waved his hand and said softly: "You are not siegeing the city. I have a major event that you need to do. This battle is the first command of the Lord's bus. How can I really rely on my closeness to appoint generals? Your responsibility is a hundred times more important than Zijing!"
His face was solemn, and Xu Huang looked at Fa Zheng solemnly, "Huang was willing to go through fire and water and swear to win Baozhong to the death!"
He reached out and patted Xu Huang's shoulder with encouragement. Fa Zhengcai slowly revealed his plan and the only words, Xu Huang's eyes flashed and the colors were filled with bright colors.
Not to mention how Fa Zheng explained to Xu Huang, but Meng Da had already begun to discuss with his men and women, and the matter of Baozhong City was coming.
When he learned that Meng Da was the vanguard of this battle, his generals were extremely excited. After all, joining the army was to win a meritorious service and to win a wife and son. If he could not fight for a long time, then there would be no meaning to join the military camp.
When Meng Da told them about these things, everyone under his command was naturally extremely excited. One of the soldiers, Xi Yi, directly suggested that Meng Da be scolded and humiliated Zhang Lu, and that the generals in the city could not bear the humiliation and would inevitably open the city to fight.
Meng Da also admired his suggestion, so after a while, Meng Da directly led the eight hundred soldiers to line up at the city wall of Baozhong, and shouted loudly at the guards on the city tower.
Hearing the scolding at the city, the guards of Baozhong City were originally unwilling to pay attention to it, but as a large clan in Hanzhong, Yang Bai had his own arrogance. Although he did not want to get along with Liu Fan, he still had to bite the bullet and walk up to the city tower to confront the city.
"Listen to the city, Yizhou is now the governor of Liuzhou. You and others are all the people of Liuzhou. Our lord, the Left Central Army, is a royal relative, and is highly valued by today's son. This time, I returned to Yizhou to summon troops and attack the rebels of Guanzhong and Xiliang. But when I refused to open the city gate, would I want to be an enemy of the court? Are you also like Li Jue and Guo Si?"
With the shouts, the guards on the city tower all became embarrassed. They themselves felt that they were from a remote Yizhou, and they had less confidence than those from Guanzhong. If Hanzhong was not the place where Emperor Gao Xing was the place where Emperor Gao had risen back then, they really felt that Hanzhong was almost the same as the wild land.
However, the Hanzhong people who have always maintained a strong sense of belonging to the Han Dynasty were pointed at the nose today, calling themselves rebels who were rebels who rebel against the emperor.
The soldiers' eyes were all focused on Yang Bai, the main general on the city tower. The Yang family, as a large clan in Hanzhong, was also the main general of Baozhong. This time, the main envoy of the city gate was ordered to close, and everyone hoped to get the answer from him.
His face changed and the cold sweat on Yang Bai's back had already flowed down. It was true that his Yang family was a big family in Hanzhong, but compared to Liu Fan, it could only be said to be insignificant. If you want to go against Liu, it would be like shaking a big tree.
The reason why he dared to close the gate of Baozhong and refused to enter Hanzhong was not because of his intention, but because he obeyed the above orders. After all, Hanzhong is not in the hands of Liu, even Liu Yan's governor of Yizhou was nominally in control of Hanzhong.
But in other words, Liu Yan was able to stay in Yizhou for so many years and not follow the imperial order because Hanzhong was nominally occupied by the rice thief! In a certain situation, Liu Yan used the excuse of not following the imperial orders of the court and was gradually evolving into facts. The rice thief in Hanzhong may really be disrespectful to the imperial orders, and even began to disrespect the governors of Yizhou!
"If you are envoys of the court, you should hold integrity and war. You have no moral orders and no edicts. How can you believe you? The Hanzhong County shelters the fleeing people and will not allow the army holding weapons to enter the pass. If you want to enter the pass, you need the imperial edicts!"
"Bastard! You and others dared to ask the imperial envoy and the left-level general to ask for an imperial edict. What kind of identity do you think you are? If you want to see the imperial edict and let Zhang Gongqi come, only he is qualified to receive the imperial edict!"
Upon hearing Yang Bai's words, Meng Da, who was shouting at the city gate below, was angry on the spot. As a subordinate of Liu Fan, he had a sense of mutual advancement and retreat that he was the master of humiliating his ministers and died. Yang Bai's mere guard Guan Wei dared to question their legitimacy. This is not a real or not, but a question of face!
"Shi Jun is in charge of the Nanzheng at this time, and I'm afraid there is no time to verify his identity from the Zun Envoy. If the Zun Envoy wants to enter the pass, please wait!"
Listening to the response from the city, Meng Da was angry again. These people clearly didn't want to turn on and release the switch, and they even said something about the edict. Meng Da just thought about it and knew that if he really showed them the edict, they would say that they didn't know whether the edict was true or false and dared not open the city gate!
If he refused like this, he had no head at all. At this moment, Xi Yi, beside Meng Da, also came over and whispered: "Captain Meng, I looked at the city gate lieutenant and didn't want to open the city for me. Instead of doing this with him, it would be better for us to directly scold him, so that he could not stand the humiliation and went out of the city to fight us!"
"What are you good ways?" Meng Da raised his eyebrows and looked at him with a look forward to it.
At that moment, Xi Yi bowed to Meng Da and sarcastically said to the Hanzhong army on the city: "What's the matter? Who in Yizhou doesn't know how Zhang Gongqi got the Hanzhong? Didn't he use beauty to deceive the Lord Liuzhou? He told me that Zhang Gongqi was not going to preach, but was teaching Hanzhong people how to deceive the monarch?"
"Hahahaha!" After Xi Yi said something, the Yizhou soldiers behind him all raised their heads and laughed. In fact, the relationship between Zhang Lu and Liu Yan can only be said to be a secret secret. At ordinary times, Zhang Lu did not turn against Liu Yan, and no one talked about it. But if Zhang Lu really turned against Liu family, who would still care about these things and directly pick out something ugly and scolded.
After all, they are following Liu Fan, the future master of Yizhou. If Zhang Lu really wants to seize Hanzhong, he has to ask, Lord Liu, is he happy?
After a bowing remark, all the Hanzhong soldiers in the city, including Yang Bai, looked dark. Although they usually felt that Zhang Lu had a certain degree of despise from the provincial governor Liu Yan with his mother, it was another matter to actually mock him.
After all, the Five Dogs of Rice Sect that Zhang Lu spread in Hanzhong is quite popular. At least under his governance method, the people can still eat and satisfy their hunger when they are hungry. Therefore, everyone can't say that Zhang Lu is admired, but they still have some respect. At this moment, this group of people from Guanzhong are humiliating in front of the city, which is really unbearable.
So, the soldiers in Hanzhong started to curse at the city regardless of their concern. The two sides were very unpleasant to scold them. However, the senior gossips that these soldiers knew were rare, and the curses eventually turned into humiliating words such as "reducing turtle" and "descendant" that had little technical content.
Both sides were focused on the city gates and cursing each other.
What Yang Bo did not notice was that in the mountains and forests on both sides of Baozhong, in this calm and windless Baozhong, the shadow of the tree occasionally swayed twice, but it was too weak to move, and he didn't notice it at all.
At the same time, behind Meng Da's army, Liu Fan quietly came to Fa Zheng. Looking at the scolding of Zheng Huanshi, he did not ask Xu Huang where he went, but stared at the Sima of the army who was making suggestions beside Meng Da, narrowed his eyes and said quietly: "The words under Zijing's command, who just scolded Zhang Gongqi is a bit interesting. Isn't Xiaozhi what Xiaozhi thinks?"
Youyou stared at Ke Yi's back, a smile appeared on the corner of Fa Zheng's mouth and responded faintly: "Don't worry, lord, he can't cause any storm at the moment. Since lord wants to return to Yizhou, these small characters that should jump out will jump out sooner or later. What we want is to catch the person behind."
Still looking at the verbal war ahead with a smile on his face, Liu Fan did not respond to Fa Zheng's answer. After a while, he said slowly: "Xiaozhi's plan is to 'speak east and attack west'?"
Fa Zheng smiled and nodded.
Liu Fan also nodded, "This plan is really clever to use here. I think the general who guards the city is also a mediocre person. I want to send Gongming to him and he will definitely be able to take him down. But is this a bit unfair to Zijing?"
He smiled and became like Fa Zheng Yuya. As soon as Liu Fan said, Fa Zheng also looked at Meng Da who was scolding in front of him, smiled helplessly, and comforted himself: Just treat the repayment of your teammates in the first place.
At this time, just as Meng Da was excitedly cursing the soldiers in Hanzhong under the city.
Suddenly, a shocking shout broke out at the city gate of Baozhong. Then, under Meng Da's stunned gaze, he saw a very familiar figure.
