Chapter 453: Yunyang is in an emergency
Du Yingxi's military order has been issued, ordering Cao Fengnian to release the detained student members immediately.
Although Cao Fengnian was extremely reluctant, he could not openly disobey the governor's orders and had to release him.
But this made him even more hatred for Wu Wendao, and the relationship between the General Army and the Prefectural Office was like fire.
Li Qian and other students were not satisfied after being released, so they came to the prefect's office and knelt down and asked the prefect to make the decision for them and sent troops to attack the Tartars.
Wu Wendao almost fainted.
If he could mobilize his troops, would he have to write a letter to the governor?
It is impossible to order Cao Fengnian to attack now. Being able to defend Yunyang Prefecture is the greatest victory.
He had no choice but to come forward to appease the students in the palace and tell them that the time was not right. Once the time came, the Tatars would definitely pay their blood debts.
But for some reason, as soon as the bold words were spoken, news came that the army led by Wu Sangui came to Yunxian County, the commander of Yunyang Prefecture.
When Wu Wendao heard this news, he was shocked.
What's going on? Didn't the Tartars keep looting around Yunyang Prefecture? How could they have the idea of attacking the city?
His mood immediately became nervous. The worst thing was that the enemy was facing the enemy. He had to rely on the general Cao Fengnian. Cao Fengnian had just had such a big awkward relationship with him. Is he willing to do his best sincerely?
This is really embarrassing.
At the same time, Cao Fengnian in the General's Mansion was very happy.
Wu Wendao, Wu Wendao also happens when you fall into my hands.
The Tatar army is about to attack the city. Who else can you rely on if you don’t rely on me?
I want to see when you are so proud of yourself, the old dog.
Of course, even Cao Fengnian has never thought of committing to the Tartars now.
A warrior has the pride of a warrior. If everyone is like Wu Sangui, the dog thief, he will throw away all the pride of a warrior.
However, Cao Fengnian decided to give Wu Wendao a good example to let him know the consequences of bullying the generals.
......
......
Wu Wendao personally sent someone to invite him three times, but Cao Fengnian refused to go because of illness.
Wu Wendao's face turned green.
It's really disgusting that this Death Qiu Ba knew that he was being controlled and acted like this.
However, no matter how disgusting Wu Wendao is to Cao Fengnian, he still has to be low.
Aren’t you holding an air? I’ll go and invite the boss in person!
Wu Wendao changed into a crimson official robe and rushed towards the general's palace surrounded by people.
The soldiers guarding the General's Office were shocked when they saw this scene and hurried to report.
Wu Wendao had no choice but to stand at the gate and wait.
After a cup of tea, the soldier returned, but he brought a reply that made Wu Wendao vomit blood.
"The General is ill and it is not convenient to see guests. Please come back."
OK, OK!
What an iron-strong general of Yunyang Prefecture.
You are deliberately despising me, right?
"Hmph, let's go!"
Wu Wendao's old face had no place to let go. He was unwilling to be humiliated and threw his sleeves away.
......
......
After returning to the prefect's office, Wu Wendao was worried, and he suddenly felt like he was bound by himself.
The Ming Dynasty's definition of responsibility for civil officials and military generals in defending their territory was different.
For civil officials, defending their territory is their responsibility and nothing to discuss.
If the city is lost and the city is destroyed, the first person to be held accountable will definitely be the civil servant.
If the Yunyang City was broken, even if Wu Wendao escaped by chance, he would definitely be captured by the Jinyiwei Tiqi sent by the emperor and returned to Nanjing, and he would never be able to escape the decapitation of the sword. If he was a general, as long as he fought hard to defend the enemy, he could still make meritorious contributions even if he was defeated, at least his life would be worry-free.
This dead Qiu Ba wouldn't deliberately let the Tartars attack Yunyang City because of this rift with him, and let him die?
When Wu Wendao thought of this, he felt his scalp numb.
Forget it, just think about these useless things now and then, just self-disturbance.
He can't really bow his head to a Qiu Ba, right?
......
......
After some rest, Wu Sangui has returned to his attitude when he came.
In his opinion, as long as he took Yunyang and made some noise, the Qing court would be able to explain it.
At first, he did not intend to attack the city, but only planned to rob the villages along the way.
But after seeing Ming Jun's hunching posture, he changed his mind.
If he did not attack the city in such an attitude, wouldn’t he have lost his reputation as the most powerful general of the Qing Dynasty?
So Wu Sangui led his troops to attack Yunyang with one wave of his hand.
He had been in Yunyang Prefecture for a while, so he quickly made some siege equipment.
There are all kinds of collisions, ladders and even simple catapults.
Of course, what Wu Sangui wants most is the red cannon.
This thing is a magic weapon for siege. Just aim at the top of the city and bang it hard. It won’t take long to get the battlements on the top of the city, and the city tower will be flattened, and it may even be directly blasted open the city gate.
But now the Qing army's red-clothed cannons were concentrated in Kong Youde and Geng Zhongming's Tianyou army. Even Wu Sangui didn't have that much face to ask for it.
So he could only use some methods to attack the city.
This method is a little stupid, but as long as you persist, you can still attack the city.
Wu Sangui is very confident in himself.
......
......
Looking at the dark Qing army outside the city, Wu Wendao felt his eyes turned black and his calves were a little weak.
Oh my god, Wu Sangui has transferred all the main players.
The only thing that made him feel a little relieved was that Cao Fengnian did not mean to kill himself.
The general of Yunyang was still responsible when the enemy was in the face of the great enemy. He climbed to the top of the city with illness and personally commanded the defense.
It’s just that Cao Fengnian had no communication with Wu Wendao throughout the whole process.
After Li Qian and other students in the mansion learned that Wu Sangui was going to attack Yunyang City, they petitioned Wu Wendao and asked to climb to the top of the city to help the battle, but Wu Wendao refused without hesitation.
At this moment, he was just a bunch of scholars who were powerless to climb up to the city wall to watch the battle.
When the fight comes, these scholars will not only not be able to help kill the enemy, but may also become a burden.
Although Li Qian and others were very upset about this, they had no choice.
The sound of golden drums outside the city gradually rang out, and the battle was about to break out.
Finally, the Qing army under Wu Sangui rushed towards the city wall like a tide with the low sound of the conch.
When did Wu Wendao see such a situation? He was so scared that his legs became weak.
He swallowed and spitted, and the Adam's apple moved up and down for a while before he cleared his throat and said, "I will go to the city tower to watch the battle first."
The Qing army's offense was very layered. First, they used a catapult to suppress the firepower of the city. At the same time, the rushing car and the ladder approached the city wall.
Whether it is a rushing car or a ladder, the surface of the clouds is covered with a thick layer of cowhide, so ordinary arrows cannot be damaged at all.
Cao Fengnian was not in a hurry on the top of the city and watched all this quietly.
