"There is no need to be polite, Manager Lin. I just heard you say that all the weapons and food that can be used in Victory Fort have been transported to the back entrance, is that right?"
Ordnance, food and grass are the most essential elements to win a war. Wang Mi needs to be confirmed again in order to decide on the next action.
Lin Deguang's slightly hazy eyes were shining brightly, and he said confidently: "Secretary Wang, don't worry, tonight will be the last batch. There is a fortress guarding the Victory Fort, and the fortress owner specially asked the villain to stay in the Beifu to help.
"
"If there is any news or token handover between the two sides, Secretary Wang can hand it over to the villain."
"Very good, that's what I meant."
The Master Liu, who has been able to hang out outside Xiangyang City for so many years under the noses of the enemy and still remain unharmed, really has a lot of tricks up his sleeve.
"Manager Lin, the war is about to begin tonight. You should work harder and rush back to Victory Fort overnight to bring the criminal Murong Chong back to the entrance. It will be of great use."
"Only take him back to the entrance, rather than tie him outside Xiangyang City?" Lin Deguang was a little confused.
"Bring him back to the exit first and keep him under guard. When he needs to appear, I will send someone to escort him to Xiangyang City." When Wang Mi spoke, a trace of murderous intent flashed in his bright eyes, although it was fleeting.
But Lin Deguang still caught it.
"I understand, villain."
It seemed that even on the Xiangyang battlefield, Murong Chong was destined to be a hostage, and Secretary Wang was not prepared to really hand him over to Murong Chui's hands.
I defeated the people of Fortress, and my great revenge was avenged!
…………
According to Cui Yanyou's intelligence, it was Nanyi Qixia Gate that Murong Chui was guarding, and Fu Rui was in charge of the main defense in the city.
Even though Murong Chui had made preparations to coordinate the Jin army, Wang Mi knew very well that this so-called coordination would require an opportunity.
Over the years, it has been very difficult for Lao Chuizhui to pretend to be well-behaved under Di Qin's nose. Now, in order to cooperate well, seize Xiangyang, and achieve a win-win situation, it is necessary for the Beifu soldiers to create a good environment for him.
Escape opportunity.
After Lin Deguang left, Wang Mi stood up and paced gently in the military tent. Alone, in this quiet night, his thoughts became more sensitive and clear.
Everything was ready, and Wang Mi had decided to start the battle tonight. However, he had yet to tell the general Xie Xuan the news.
Not even close.
In his mind, a complete puzzle seemed to be missing the crucial last piece. He had a hunch that only by obtaining this important piece of the puzzle could the outcome of the Battle of Xiangyang be settled.
What exactly is it?
Wang Mi opened the curtain and stood outside the tent to take a breath. In the blink of an eye, he was shocked by the scene in front of him.
"General Cui, why haven't you left yet?"
Cui Yanyou hunched over, still acting very reserved.
How long has this man been standing outside the tent?
Did he hear the conversation in the military tent just now?
Their gazes exchanged for several times. Wang Mi was sure that he heard it, and Cui Yanyou had no intention of hiding it.
He did hear it, but now that he was from Beifu, was Wang Mi still worried that he would report the news to Fu Rui?
"It's not that my subordinate didn't leave, he left and then came back."
When the two entered the tent, Wang Mi saw the bulges in Cui Yanyou's sleeves and became curious.
"General Cui has something to give me?" Wang Mi looked at his sleeves, Cui Yanyou nodded repeatedly, and quickly presented the treasure that he had prepared for a long time.
"Secretary Wang, Xiangyang City is tightly defended, the city structure is complex, and there are many defenders. It is very difficult to capture Beifu in one battle."
"Since the day I decided to surrender, my subordinates have been planning for the Jin army day and night. Now, I specially present the defense map of Xiangyang City, which was drawn by my subordinates myself."
"Defense map?"
"From Xiangyang City!"
"Huh?"
"Do you still have this preparation?"
"Why didn't you submit it earlier?"
With a click, the last piece of the puzzle that Wang Mi was looking for was closed!
With this picture, Xiangyang is already in the Jin army's pocket!
"quick!"
"Let's go back to Xiangyang!"
As soon as Wang Mi made those bold words, he was already on the horse in the next moment.
Horse hooves galloping, Wang Mi led Cui Yanyou and others in a hurry to the foot of Xiangyang City, the Beifu military tent...
…………
"General Fu!"
"Oh no!"
"The Jin army is taking action!"
action?
What action?
I didn’t see anything at all!
Surrounded by soldiers, General Fu Rui boarded the Fengming Gate of the west gate of Xiangyang City. He leaned on the railing and looked into the distance. The screams of the Qin army at the other end seemed to have drifted into his ears on the wind.
Crazy disobedient!
Scared you to death!
"What's going on?"
"What a fuss."
Fu Rui is not in a hurry. Xiangyang City needs people and food. Even if these Southern Barbarians try their best, they can't shake it.
The soldiers of the Qin army still don't know what Fu Rui is thinking. If it weren't for an emergency, no one would want to spoil his fun.
The soldier wiped his sweat and reluctantly stepped forward.
"General, the food and fodder for the Jin army have been sent back to the entrance a long time ago!"
"They didn't deliver food from the preset food channels at all!"
"How is that possible!" Fu Rui grabbed Xiao Bing by the collar. This time Fu Rui really couldn't calm down!
The soldier was just a member of the reconnaissance team. He finally broke through the tight siege of the Jin army, explored the situation near the return entrance, and risked his life to return to the city to report the situation.
Now he was grabbed by Fu Rui, who was so frightened that he almost wet his pants.
"It's a secret passage. This time, my subordinates touched the area near the return entrance along the way and discovered that grain, grass and weapons were piled up everywhere along the river bank."
"My subordinates made inquiries in various places, and found out that the Jin army has been obtaining grain and grass supplies through the return areas. The reason why they had made great efforts to capture the return areas was precisely because they had to receive food assistance.
.”
"In the Huikou area, there is a secret tunnel that leads directly to Victory Fort. Through this secret tunnel, the people from Victory Fort secretly delivered the grain, grass, and weapons stored in the fort to the Beifu soldiers in a steady stream."
"They are active underground day and night, and our army cannot detect their whereabouts on the ground at all!"
The scout's words completely shattered Fu Rui's dream.
"In other words, the ambush at Xiaozha is completely useless!"
"The Jin army did not follow the fixed grain road at all, but went underground!"
"Has all the food been delivered to them?"
The soldier didn't dare to raise his head to face Fu Rui's questioning eyes. Fu Rui's eyes contained dissatisfaction and disbelief after his illusions were shattered.
"Indeed, my subordinates have repeatedly investigated, and this should be the case."
"General, please make a decision as soon as possible."
Is it too early to make a decision?
Food, grass, and weapons have all been put into storage, so no matter how prepared you are, it’s just an afterthought!
The hostile eyes slanted over, and the soldier immediately became excited.
"General, spare your life!"
"My subordinates are guilty!"
Everyone knew what kind of temper Fu Rui had. When the soldier saw Fu Rui's sudden change in expression, he quickly folded his legs and knelt down.
It doesn’t matter whether you are guilty or not, and it doesn’t matter what crime you committed, just plead guilty.
"How come such an important situation was not discovered until today?"
"Are you all blind?"
Fu Rui was furious. He waved his hand and the soldiers around him understood his intention. Several people stepped forward and stood up the soldiers.
"General, how should we deal with it?"
"You still have to ask?"
"Behead it!"
If I had known this, why would I do it in the first place?
The soldier's legs were trembling, and his intestines were bruised and turned green!
If he had known that this would be the outcome, why would he have bothered to come back? It would have been better for him to surrender directly to the Jin army when he turned back.
Maybe you can even get some credit.
All the strength in his body was taken away, and the soldier let the guards drag him all the way to the bottom of the city tower.
