Chapter 89: Go to Pengcheng
Pei's army gathered outside the city. Li Ba and Cao Shen were already riding in front of the army, waiting for the order to send troops. In front of the gate of Pei County, Yang's mother and Lu Pheasant looked at Yang Lin with tears in their eyes, "My son, you must pay attention to protect yourself."
, don’t get hurt." Mother Yang said reluctantly wiping her tears.
"Please rest assured, mother, the child should take care of himself. In a few days, the child will be back." Yang Lin said solemnly, and then he looked at Lu Pheasant, who also had tears streaming down his face, and then held him in his arms.
, whispered again: "Take care of yourself and your mother at home, I will be back soon."
"Lv Pheasant is worried about your husband now that he's gone. I hope you don't forget Lu Pheasant when you are away." Lu Pheasant whispered in Yang Lin's ear, her voice choked with loneliness.
"Well! Eju is also taking care of himself at home." Yang Lin kissed Lu Pheasant on the forehead and wiped away the latter's tears, which made Lu Pheasant look a little blushing. After all, he did such an intimate gesture in front of the entire army.
, as a woman, even if she is usually lively and lively, it is impossible not to feel shy.
Finally, Yang Lin came to Yu Ji, who had been trying to keep calm. Looking at the latter's beautiful face and gently moving lips, Yang Lin hesitated for a moment, but still opened his arms to Yu Ji's surprise and bewilderment.
He held her in his arms with his eyes, the beauty was in his arms, and a soft fragrance immediately floated into his nose.
Yu Ji wanted to struggle, but when faced with so many eyes, she gave up resistance shyly, and just let Yang Lin hold her in his arms, "Take care of yourself, don't let hatred blind you, at least,
In Pei County, I am still there, Lu Pheasant is there, and your adoptive mother is also there."
"Yeah." Yu Ji responded softly in a mosquito-like voice.
Then Yang Lin released Yu Ji. He looked at the shy face again, patted her shoulder, and nodded silently. Then he turned around, and then said goodbye to Mother Yang.
, he rode his horse to the front of the troops outside the city. At this time, Li Ba, Cao Shen, Xia Houying and other generals were already waiting outside with an army of 6,000. Seeing Yang Lin, Cao Shen shouted: "Welcome my lord!" and then bowed.
Waist salute.
Immediately afterwards, six thousand soldiers fled to the ground with their weapons raised. They raised their arms and shouted, "Welcome our lord!"
Listening to the overwhelming momentum coming towards him, Yang Lin was very satisfied. These soldiers may not be as numerous as General Xiang, but after these days of training, they are brave, capable, fearless and other qualities that soldiers should have. Yang Lin was very satisfied.
Lin believed that his Pei army was definitely an elite division. The soldiers were trained intensively with sufficient food. How could it be any worse?
Yang Lin was on the horse, holding the horse's belly with his legs. His whole body immediately became much darker, and his originally resolute face made him look majestic. He pressed his hand gently, and then six
The shouts of thousands of people immediately fell silent. Yang Lin swept over the generals and said solemnly: "I came to Pengcheng to understand the difficulties of our Pei County. As good men of our Pei County, you should be brave.
Kill the enemy and strive for glory for the elders in your hometown."
"Qiang——"
Yang Lin drew his sword and then said in a deep voice that could not be doubted: "Send troops to Pengcheng!"
"Ho--, ho--"
After hearing the order, the soldiers raised their arms and shouted again. Under this unstoppable morale, the entire army began to advance towards Pengcheng, because Li Ba and Cao Shen were the first soldiers. After receiving the order, the two men had already rushed to the end of the team.
In front, he led three thousand troops and galloped ahead.
The action of the army immediately attracted the people to see them off. After all, most of the Pei army were from Peixian County, so this expedition filled the entire county with sadness. Since ancient times, there have been many battles, and the people also know this. , after this, perhaps the sons and husbands among them will never come back.
Yang Lin also turned around and waved goodbye to Yang Lin and Lu Zhi again. However, at this time, he heard a commotion in the crowd. Following the sound, he saw that Yu Ji appeared on the Peixian city tower.
Yang Lin frowned slightly when he saw this. Just when he didn't know what Yu Ji was going to do, he saw the latter dancing with her arms and sleeves, twisting her whole body flexibly, and dancing on the tower. Yang Lin rode his horse and looked, Yu Ji's dance was graceful and colorful, but it was different from what she usually did in the county government. It made people look like she was full of an indescribable love or hate, and her whole person looked extremely melancholy.
Yang Lin saw this in his eyes, and felt a faint pain in his heart. Now he finally understood that it turned out that Yu Ji already had his figure in her heart. Is this also a change of fate? Yang Lin tightened his fists, maybe so, he secretly thought Said. Then, with the beauty dancing to see her off, Yang Lin sped off and sped off, but said in his heart: Wait for me to come back.
Lu Zhi looked at Yu Ji's expression and Yang Lin's eyes. She suddenly felt panicked and suspicious. However, thinking that Yang Lin kissed her forehead before leaving, she felt slightly relieved. However, now she looked at Yu Ji again. , there is always some inexplicable look in her eyes.
Li Ba and Cao Shen led the troops to rush to Pengcheng. Because the two cities were very close to each other, it took them less than half a day to arrive ten miles outside Pengcheng and stopped the three thousand troops. Cao Shen faced them. Li Ba, who was standing next to him, said: "My lord has told us not to conflict with Xiang Yu. I think our army will rest here for the time being. It won't be too late for the scouts to go to Pengcheng to investigate before we continue to move forward."
Hearing this, Li Ba nodded in a thunderous voice and said: "This is a very good arrangement. This matter is of great importance. My lord lets me and I be the vanguard, which is a great trust in us. We must not act recklessly and cause harm." I understand the master's plan." This originally rugged man obviously understood the importance of this action, so he said this in compliance with the order.
Then the entire army rested ten miles outside Pengcheng, and Cao Shen sent five scouts to inquire about Xiang Yu's movements in different directions. This time, he did not dare to slack off at all, in order to prevent the army of three thousand people from being For a sneak attack, he specially set up hidden sentries around the army as a precaution.
Outside Pengcheng, Xiang Yu's army has already set up a formation outside the city. Judging from the current situation, Xiang Yu's actions are much earlier than Yang Lin predicted. Originally, Yang Lin estimated that the latter should arrive outside Pengcheng at dusk. The current situation is only It can explain one thing, that is, Xiang Yu is eager to capture the city in front of him, so he speeds up and arrives in advance.
"General, the scouts are here to report that an unidentified army of about 3,000 people was found ten miles behind our army." At this time, Xiang Yu suddenly received a report from Long Qie.
After hearing this, Xiang Yu did not frown. He did not take the 3,000-man army seriously. The 10,000 Xiang family troops he led were all elites who had experienced many battles with him. With this army at his side, , let alone three thousand people, he would not be afraid even of twenty thousand people. But the only thing that worries him is that now he is preparing to attack Pengcheng. Even if three thousand people are not afraid or even disdainful, but if If he really attacked them from behind, it would still cause considerable trouble for his siege plan. This was the reason why he frowned.
"Long Qie, do you know which force it is from? Are they reinforcements sent by the Sishui County captain?" Xiang Yu asked in a deep voice.
Long Qie shook his head, with a rather disdainful look, and said, "As long as the general gives me a thousand soldiers, I can destroy these three thousand people in a moment."
At this time, Ji Buce on one side immediately stepped forward, raised his hands and said: "General, don't send troops to destroy the opponent without knowing the opponent's identity. What should we do if it is the army of the other five countries? General Xiang Liang is preparing at this time.
To form an alliance with the other five countries, the general must not lose too much."
When Xiang Yu heard Ji Bu's words, he hesitated in his heart. If it was true to his temper, he would have sent Long Qie to conquer. However, as Ji Bu said, he must not be destroyed just because of three thousand people.
For his uncle's alliance plan, the most important thing now is to figure out where the other party is coming from. If it's reinforcements from the county lieutenant, he doesn't have to worry about these things.
"Ji Bu, I order you to lead a thousand troops to explore the enemy's whereabouts. If it is the Qin army, it must be wiped out. If it is the army of the other five countries, you must fight against them and delay them. Don't let them come to harass our army and attack the city.
." Xiang Yu frowned, had an idea in his mind, and immediately gave instructions to the latter.
"No! Ji Bu accepts the order!"
"Remember, you only need to fight against the opponent. You must not fight the two armies." Xiang Yu warned again. In this way, with Ji Bu's delay in the rear, he would not have any worries in capturing Pengcheng, and in front of him
Although the city is magnificent, with strong walls and high towers, Xiang Yu is quite confident about his Xiang family army.
In the Pei army camp ten miles away, Cao Shen was surprised when he received the report from the scouts. He never expected that Xiang Yu would arrive at Pengcheng ahead of time. However, after knowing this, he did not dare to underestimate him even more.
At the same time, he also knew that Xiang Jiajun's bravery could actually improve his walking distance by several hours.
"Sure enough, Xiang Yu is worthy of being famous all over the world. He can lead such troops and live up to his reputation for bravery." Cao Shen said with emotion, "Has Xiang Yu already started to attack the city?" At this time, he asked hurriedly. After all, they
He came here to help Xiang Yu attack the city. He did not dare to forget the purpose of this trip in the slightest.
"General, the Xiang family's army has set up its formation and seems to be preparing to attack the city." The scout continued to report.
"Yes!" Cao Shen nodded, then waved his hand and said, "You should retreat first."
"Li Ba, what do you think?" Cao Shen asked Li Ba next to him, "Should we go over now to support or wait until Xiang Yu and Peng Cheng start fighting?"
Li Ba said carelessly: "In my opinion, we can just go over and explain our purpose, so as not to wait until Xiang Yu and Pengcheng fight and think we are the Qin army and lead troops to fight back against us. If that is the case, this misunderstanding will be huge.
"
When Cao Shen heard this, he couldn't help but glance at Li Ba. This rough man usually seemed careless, but at critical moments he could tell the key to the problem in one sentence.
