On the march, Liu Yu suddenly had an inexplicable intuition that something might be going on in the direction of Shouchun, so he immediately decided to personally lead 1,000 cavalry and rushed towards Shouchun at full speed, without dismounting or unsaddled the whole way.
, finally hurriedly and slowly arrived at Shouchun
Finally, when we arrived in Shouchun, we found that the city gates were open in Shouchun and there was a constant flow of people. There was no signs of fighting anywhere.
Liu Yu was furious and rushed to the city lord's palace in person to ask why he had already issued an official document asking him to enter a state of war preparation, but now there was no response.
The city lord Li Mu is an old bureaucrat. Seeing the furious Liu Yu, he is calm and unhurried. Although Liu Yu controls the entire war zone, Li Mu should of course obey his orders, but after all, Li Mu is a local official and appoints
Originating from the imperial court, Liu Yu couldn't do anything to him
Li Mu still looked calm and said slowly: "Liu Shuai, since I received the order, I have indeed followed the commander's request to close the city gates tightly every day. However, there are hundreds of thousands of people in Shouchun City.
Surname, just the food, vegetables, chicken, duck, and fish that we need to eat and drink every day is a huge amount.
There are so many people in the city. Commander, think about it, how much does it cost just to use the toilets of these people every day? If it is not cleaned up, wouldn’t Shouchun be full of stench? There is nothing I can do about it.
You are allowed to open the city for an hour every day to transport these things in and out, otherwise, Commander, what do you think we will do?"
Liu Yu was stunned for a moment and had to admit that what Li Mu said was reasonable and reasonable. He thought that it was just a small city. Although Shouchun was a military fortress, it was indeed a big city. Now is not the time when troops are approaching the city.
Lacking a sense of crisis, if the city is suddenly closed, Li Mu, an official, will indeed be unable to suppress it.
Despite this, Liu Yu still said seriously: "Master Li, it's not that Liu deliberately made things difficult for you. Did you know that Fengyang has been lost? If Shouchun is lost again, the situation will be more serious. For the sake of caution, Master Li
, it’s better to close the city quickly”
Li Mu actually wanted to take the opportunity to show off. Seeing that Liu Yu was so humble, he felt that it was enough to show off, so he waved his hand happily and said loudly: "Chen Qi'er, how long do we have?"
Chen Qi'er was the chief guarding the city gate and had a very loud voice. He replied loudly: "Master Li! It's only a quarter of an hour! There are still the last group of people!" Li Mu shrugged and looked at Liu Yu.
That means, look, it’s not that I won’t close the door, it’s true that the matter is not over yet
Liu Yu looked down and saw a long convoy slowly walking towards the city gate. This convoy was transporting vegetables. The people escorting the convoy were all guys who looked like honest people.
Even so, Liu Yu still asked loudly: "Chen Shichang, are these people regular customers?"
Chen Qi'er said loudly: "Liu Shuai, you are right. They have been transporting vegetables to Shouchun City for several years! They are absolutely reliable."
Liu Yu was slightly relieved now. Since he had been carrying vegetables for so long, there must be no problem. Moreover, it was only a quarter of an hour, and it didn't take long. Liu Yu looked around and found that there was indeed no trace of the enemy in the distance.
The people he brought with him, for emergency reasons, all entered the city and rested on the spot. Now Liu Yu decided to go down to express condolences to them. So after chatting with Li Mu for a few words, Liu Yu Shiran went down the tower.
Walking to the gate of the city, Liu Yu clasped his hands behind his back and looked at the slowly advancing motorcade. Those people were indeed honest. They all looked at Liu Yu with timidity and a hint of fear. Moreover, their bow-legged and short clothes were all...
The most typical vegetable seller's dress
Suddenly, Liu Yu felt something was wrong! Because the posture of the last few people pushing the car was obviously wrong.
Taking a closer look, Liu Yu found that although they were also pushing carts filled with vegetables, their steps were neat and rhythmic. Although their clothes were shabby, their demeanor and deliberately low-key
His hair doesn't look like that of a vegetable vendor.
What's more important is the cart they push!
Liu Yu also worked as a coolie and pushed carts when he was a child. He at least knew that if those carts were really filled with vegetables, the postures of those people would not be like this!
"Stop!" Liu Yu held down his sword and pointed at them, "You guys, stop!"
Chen Qi'er trotted over at this time and said with a smile: "Liu Shuai, what's wrong?"
"Go, take a few people and check their cars." Liu Yu gave a clear order.
"Liu Shuai, this..." Chen Qi hesitated.
Liu Yu didn't hesitate and took out his token directly. Chen Qi'er didn't say goodbye. Anyway, a person like Liu Yu is not something that a small person like him can manage.
"You guys, come here! Come all over!" Chen Qi'er greeted people harshly. Soon, a bunch of government officials came over. According to normal circumstances, they will open the cars of those people. If there is no problem,
It's just a waste of time. If any contraband is found, they will probably confiscate the contraband and extort some money from them.
But Liu Yuzai, there is no need to think about making some extra money. People will not value that little money, so they will not protect themselves. And bullying the people in front of the chief is not a good thing.
At this moment, the person walking at the back suddenly muttered something strange, and the people in front suddenly pushed the car at the same time, and instantly took out the knife from under the car!
At this moment, Liu Yu's expression also changed drastically, because he had lived in the border area between Qin and Jin for many years, and he could tell that that sentence meant "hands on" in the Di people's indigenous language!
Without thinking, Liu Yu jumped up and chopped the strong man who was charging at Chen Qi with a knife into two halves. However, because he rushed too hard, Liu Yu himself was almost hit.
But at this moment, all of these people are strong and steady, and they look like well-trained warriors. How do they look like hawkers?
Chen Qi'er was just stunned for a moment, then immediately raised his knife and joined the fight. For a while, the two sides were fighting together.
But soon, when the people moved the vegetables on the cart, Liu Yu discovered that the carts were not filled with vegetables at all, but flammable materials such as straw and collodion!
"Close the city gate!" Liu Yu shouted with almost all his strength.
Almost at the same time, the men lit the straw, and soon the fire began to spread from one car to another.
Li Mu at the top of the city had not suffered any loss from Liu Yu just now, and now he was feeling proud. Suddenly he saw the fire at the top of the city soaring into the sky. His heart skipped a beat, something big had happened!
Things like Liu Yu's are not even a sign, but if something goes wrong with Shouchun, he will be in big trouble! Because Liu Yu's official document does make it clear, he has always closed the city gate and did it without permission.
Adaptation, if Shouchun is lost, and the general ledger is calculated, I will not be able to afford it.
Causing the fall of a major military town is a capital crime!
Although Li Mu was a slippery bureaucrat, he was still decisive at the critical moment. He did not wait for the soldiers to turn the winch, but instantly snatched the bow and arrow from the soldiers around him, then quickly nocked the bow and arrow, and let go instantly!
Four arrows were fired in succession, just in time to break the two ropes, and the heavy stone fell. Although the city gate resisted for a while, it was finally closed.
Almost everyone, including Liu Yu, was applauding! They didn’t expect that Li Mu actually had this skill.
And those Da Qin warriors who were fighting with swords were stunned almost at the same time.
The closing of the city gate marked the failure of their plan. They are now locked up in the city and can no longer escape.
At this time, the 1,000 elite soldiers brought by Liu Yu began to fight...
When Fu Ruiqin led the army to the foot of Shouchun City, the fire in the city had not been extinguished, and there was still a strong smell of blood. It was obvious that there were traces of a battle. However, the city gate was now closed. It was obvious that
, the plan to seize the city failed
It turns out that Fu Rui's plan was almost a flawless surprise attack plan. Shouchun City is high and deep. If it is attacked by force, it will be very difficult to defeat it.
However, as early as when Huan Wen recaptured Shouchun, the Great Qin Empire began to deploy in Shouchun. Later, during the Southern Expedition of Great Qin, it was only by relying on the fine work buried in Shouchun City that they captured Shouchun. Later, although Xie Xuan regained it during the Northern Expedition
Shouchun, but there was no time to carry out a large-scale cleansing of the underground forces in Shouchun City.
Those vendors who carry vegetables are actually elites created by Wei Bin.
Li Mu is a soft-spoken person and finds it troublesome. He will definitely agree to set aside an hour every day to open the city gate and transport things. Here is the secret.
Every time before, there was no problem with this convoy. Chen Qi and others, who had checked carefully at the beginning, relaxed their guard. But this time, all the convoys were filled with flammable materials. According to the plan, they would
The city gate is set on fire, and these people are all warriors. They will rely on the cover of the fire and the terrain to control the city gate. At the same time, Fu Rui will personally come with the elite to seize the city.
No matter how big the city is, if the city gate is opened and the cavalry rushes in and the opponent has no time to organize a street battle, the fall is almost certain. I have to say that Fu Rui's plan is perfect.
However, due to Liu Yu's suddenness and the fact that Li Mu was actually an expert archer, his perfect plan failed.
You can even hear sporadic fighting sounds in the city outside the city. You don't have to think about it. It's the Jin army who is besieging his people and killing his robe!
Almost without thinking, Fu Rui made a crazy decision! Attack the city immediately!
The city was already in shock and there was no mobilization at all. They relied on luck and Liu Yu's decisiveness to avoid losing the city. Now Fu Rui suddenly arrived with a large group of troops and immediately attacked the city, which really caught them off guard.
