Having said this, Liu Yu breathed a long sigh of relief. Unknowingly, the sky was already turning white. After talking all night, it was almost dawn. Liu Yu took a look around. The chirping of birds was already coming and going.
From time to time, deer rabbits jumped across the grass in between, causing gusts of wind to stir in the grass. Liu Yu said: "That's it. You go back and interrogate Sima Guofan, hoping to open some breakthroughs from him."
Wang Miaoyin said calmly: "I don't have high hopes. He can definitely insist that he is eager to perform meritorious deeds or is indignant when he sees our musicians being killed. After all, he is a member of the clan. Without clear evidence, I can't force him.
Too cruel. However, if we can use this to purge those who want to make meritorious deeds from the Sima clan and send them back to Jiankang, it would be a good result. After all, the ambitions of the Sima clan need to be controlled at any time."
Liu Yu nodded: "I can rest assured that you will handle this matter. The army will arrive the day after tomorrow. I still have to arrange the siege and intelligence matters, so you and Fatty will have to work harder."
Wang Miaoyin turned around and left: "Leave it to me. Guanggu City is easy to defend but difficult to attack. Now the Xianbei soldiers in the city have high fighting spirit. You must be careful."
Liu Yu's eyes turned to Guanggu City in the distance, and became more profound, and he murmured: "Are you really as difficult to attack as the legend says?"
One day later, in the east of the city, there was the Beifu Army Camp.
In just two days, a military camp capable of accommodating 100,000 troops had been erected outside Guanggu City. There were three camps in the east, west and south, covering more than a hundred miles. There were teams of Beifu with bright armor and a strong military appearance.
Soldiers of the army, holding halberds and wielding swords, patrolled around the stronghold, while the military flags representing the various camps of the Beifu Army fluttered in the wind, accompanied by various Wudi and Lianghuai accents, making the military camps more than a hundred miles away.
The heat wave was raging, and on the road to the east and south outside the camp, strong civilians pushing carts, carrying baggage, carrying sharpened wooden spears, and carrying hunting bows followed one after another. Obviously, they came to join the army.
The entire Qilu land has ushered in a rare opportunity in a century to avenge and destroy the Hulu. How many Han people are willing to miss it?
In the Chinese military camp, a large flag with the word "Liu" fluttered high on a flagpole more than three feet high, while more than 20 enthusiastic generals stood in classes, standing on the left and right classes, flying from time to time.
New generals came in, raised their tents, and saluted with fists clasped in arms. They smiled and said, "XX, why did you get here? I think you don't want to catch up with the siege."
At this time, the newcomer will laugh and respond: "It's not too late, Marshal, the last general XX has led his troops to the camp and is waiting for your order!"
Liu Yu, who was sitting behind the commander's desk, nodded expressionlessly and waved his hand. The new general would return to his post on his own, while Liu Muzhi, who was sitting in the corner of the tent, would write like flying paper.
Record this on the military roll in front of you.
After Shen Linzi and Shen Tianzi both clasped their fists and saluted Liu Yu, they walked to their seats. Xiang Mi, who was opposite him, laughed, stared at Shen Tianzi's still not very agile pace, and said: "I said Tianzi, his butt is still bad. Don't be in such a hurry to come to the camp, you should rest in Linqu for a few more days."
Shen Tianzi glanced angrily at Wang Zhene, who was standing in the same position opposite, and gave a loud "hum": "Wang Canjun can still ride a horse even if his butt is rotten. He came a day earlier than me, and he works so hard as a scholar. What qualifications do I have to sleep in the rear? If I didn't have to protect the civilian husband, I would have arrived two days ago."
Zhu Lingshi smiled and said: "Wang Shenjun is really powerful. He was able to ride a horse to Guanggu just after being beaten with thirty army sticks. I probably wouldn't be able to do it."
Wang Zhene's expression was as usual: "None of us want to miss this opportunity to besiege Guanggu, defeat the Hulu, and attack the enemy country. What does this little pain mean?"
Having said this, Wang Zhenye glanced at Shen Tianzi: "Furthermore, I would like to remind General Shen that as a cavalryman, I, Wang Zhenye, always wear armor and ride horses to charge forward. I am not a scholar. Now We are all standing here in armor like this, but we are all warriors."
Shen Tianzi said coldly: "I'm sorry, I made a mistake. Wang Canjun is a very powerful warrior. Next time I attack the city, I will definitely beat the drum to cheer you up. I will watch you being the first to rush to the head of Guanggu City. Win the first one!"
Liu Yu waved his hand: "Okay, today is the first day for the army to gather and the generals to report. The Guanggu fortified city is in front, and the victory has not been won yet. Whatever thoughts and ideas you had in the past, it is best to put them away. This account We are all comrades wearing armor and fighting together, and we are brothers who share life and death on the battlefield, do you understand?"
Everyone looked solemn and saluted Liu Yu: "I will obey the commander-in-chief's teachings. We will work together as one, live and die together, and we will not break the stronghold and vow not to return to the army!"
Liu Yu nodded with satisfaction and looked at Liu Jingxuan: "Ah Shou, you are the first group to come to Guanggu. Today, please report the situation in the previous period. Let all brothers listen."
Liu Jingxuan had been standing first on the left, and he was also the one with the highest status among the generals in the army. When he heard this, he stepped out of the crowd, saluted Liu Yu, and said: "Ten days ago, at the end of the Battle of Linqu At that time, under the command of the commander-in-chief, I led three thousand elite cavalry, including General Suo Miao, General Sima Guofan, and the rebel army Pilu Daoxiu to join the army, to pursue the enemy until they reached the outside of Guanggu City. I pursued and killed them all the way. We captured more than 2,000 enemy troops and arrived outside Guanggu City seven days ago."
Liu Yu softly said "Oh": "But the military newspaper said that your capture was 15,000 people. Why did you only say more than 2,000 people?"
Liu Jingxuan shook his head: "There are more than 13,400 people. They are not enemy soldiers, but Xianbei people who will not have time to enter the city in the future. Outside Guanggu City, General Sima Guofan saw me being killed before the Jin Dynasty.
More than a thousand people who were taken captive were killed by Yan thieves. Their heads were all placed on wooden stakes and stuck outside the city. So they were furious and immediately ordered that more than 10,000 Xianbei people who were captured outside the city and could not enter the city in the future be slaughtered.
, and piled the corpses into more than ten palaces, and placed them in the south of the city. The commander-in-chief has issued an order not to allow the killing of the people of Yan State. If the general fails to restrain him, I still ask the commander-in-chief to punish him!"
Liu Yu raised his eyebrows: "Is it you or Sima Guofan who ordered the killing of these Xianbei people?"
Liu Jingxuan said loudly: "At that time, the last general ordered his troops to bury the heads of the people who were killed by the owl. He did not issue an order to kill the people of Yan State. However, the people were furious at that time, especially the officers and soldiers of the Suwei Army led by General Sima. Those people were originally
They were under their care, but when General Sima saw that the soldiers were uncontrollably murderous, he ordered them all to be killed. However, General Sima was unable to stop the suppression at that time, so please punish him!"
