() News of the fall of Huguan quickly spread to Zhaode. In fact, from dawn on, before the south gate of Zhaode City was opened, there was a group of remnant soldiers who had escaped from Huguan in the south at the door, clamoring to open the door.
Sun Qi, the general of Zhaode, was frightened when he heard the report. He ordered his people to carefully open the south gate to take in the defeated soldiers. On the one hand, he was brought up to inquire about the situation, and on the other hand, he sent a spy to Huguan to inquire.
The soldiers who retreated were all frightened, and they all said: "General Shan fell into the enemy's trick. Last night he agreed to rob the Song army camp at Baodu Mountain. Unexpectedly, the three camp masters in Baodu Mountain turned over to the enemy. General Shan did not."
information."
Sun Qi asked about the situation in the city again, only to learn that the Song army had ambushed a surprise army at Huguan, and they worked together to kill Yun Zongwu, and then pulled up the Qianjin gate. The whole Xiongguan line fell into the Song army, which was regrettable.
By noon, the spies came back and reported: "The guards of Huguan were wiped out from Shan Shiqi down. The three village masters of Baodu Mountain, led by Tang Bin, defected to the Song army and were each awarded military positions. Now Lu Hui and others are leading
Hang it on the pot to show the public!"
Sun Qi listened silently, pondered for a while, and called the other guards to come and discuss matters.
Huguan is the gateway to Zhaode Mansion. If Huguan falls, Zhaode's gate will be wide open. The Song army can march straight in and attack the city. Niu Geng and Cai Ze.
The ten people discussed for a long time, but no good strategy was found to deal with the enemy. In the end, Sun Qi made the decision and sealed all the doors and households tightly. No matter how loud the Song army was, they were not allowed to go out to fight. They prepared more rolling logs and rocks, and 20,000 soldiers and horses in the city were guarded in the southeast and northwest.
Four gates, ordered Pegasus to quickly ask for help from King Tian Hu of Jin, and be ready to stand still and wait for help.
Unexpectedly, the messenger arrived just after the order was given. Jin Ding and Huang Yue recognized the person who came as Lei Zhen, but he was on duty in front of the Wei Shengzhou Palace. They had drank together before. After asking, they found out that the national master Qiao Daoqing and the palace commander Sun An were both together.
He marched out and led an army of 80,000 people to rush to Zhaode Mansion, which was already two hundred miles away.
Several generals accompanying the army were awarded the title of military commander, and Lei Zhen was among them, which made everyone envious. Sun Qi was filled with joy after hearing this. Sun An and Qiao Daoqing could be said to be the right-hand men of King Tian Hu of the Jin Dynasty. They were sent together this time, obviously to attack Zhaode Mansion.
Pay more attention to it.
After hearing the news about Huguan, Lei Zhen couldn't help but sigh that Ximen Qing had so many tricks, but it was a pity that Shan Shiqi, a general, died in Huguan.
"No matter what magic that Ximen Qing knows, the name of the National Master Huan Mojun is not in vain." Lei Zhen comforted him: "The palace commander is afraid that you will go out of the city to confront the enemy, so he specially sent me to take the lead. Although I lost the pot,
Pass, but as long as we defeat Ximen Qing, Huguan will still be ours after all."
As soon as Lei Zhen said this, everyone in the room nodded repeatedly. Qiao Daoqing's illusion skills were superb. There were many rumors among the troops that even Jin Wang Tian Hu had visited Tongyi Mountain several times and followed the etiquette of "visiting the thatched cottage three times" before inviting this person to work.
National Preceptor: Even if Ximen Qing has some skills, how can he defeat the Phantom Lord?
"Don't worry, Commander Lei. We originally planned to defend the city and never go to war." Sun Qi nodded and said, "Since the national preceptor and the palace commander are not far away, we must be more alert and not let the Song army advance even one step."
.
.
"Tang is willing to be the vanguard to attack Zhaode City!"
Tang Bin swore firmly and said to Guan Sheng and Ximen Qing: "Tang is most familiar with the situation in Zhaode Mansion. Huguan has been recovered, the gate of Zhaode City is open, and there are only 20,000 soldiers in the city. It is time to attack quickly."
"No rush." Ximen Qing looked at the sand table and shook his head at Tang Bin's suggestion: "Zhao De wants to fight, but not in this way."
"Why, Lord Supervisor of the Army cannot trust Tang?" Seeing Ximen Qing's evasive words, Tang Bin suddenly became excited: "Tang is willing to issue a military order and lead the original Baodu Mountain team to attack Zhaode!"
"My virtuous brother, don't be impulsive!" Dadao Guan Sheng waved his hand and said: "Taking Hu Pass, my virtuous brother, since you have made great achievements, you can't be greedy for merit and rush forward. Zhao De is the key point and needs to be carefully mapped out."
When Tang Bin saw that his sworn brother was doing the same thing, he immediately lost his temper. Wen Zhongrong and Cui Ye also offered words of comfort, and Tang Bin finally calmed down.
"What would I do if I were Tian Hu?" Ximen Qing stared at the sand table, playing with the thunder stone in his hand, and suddenly asked without raising his head: "Although the third brother has sent out spies, you might as well guess who Tian Hu is.
What do you think?"
The third brother mentioned by Ximen Qing was naturally Shi Qian, who had already become the intelligence chief when he was in Gaizhou. After taking Hu Pass, Ximen Qing asked Shi Qian to disperse these spies.
Only by knowing yourself and the enemy can you be victorious in every battle.
How can one defeat Tian Hu when he is blind?
"Zhaode is an arm of Tian Hu. Naturally, we need to send troops to help." Dadao Guan Sheng narrowed his red eyes and pondered for a while before replying: "And we need heavy troops. It seems that Tang Xiandi's suggestion is right. Take Zhaode quickly."
A method."
"Inappropriate." Chi Sunli, the sick lieutenant next to him, shook his head and said: "Huguan is a dangerous pass. Our army has already captured it, so naturally we have to stay there for a while. After finishing the reorganization, we can attack Zhaode, or even let the enemy attack!
As long as this pot is in place, even a hundred thousand soldiers and horses may not be able to defeat it!"
"General Sun is right." Leopard-head Lin Chong thought for a while and said, "But this will be a negative factor for the morale of our army. According to me, it is better to look for opportunities near Zhaode, just like the last encirclement.
Calling for reinforcements is the right way."
Lu Zhishen chuckled and said: "The Sa family cannot do anything about being beaten by others. Even if we decide to rely on Huguan to fight the enemy, the Sa family is willing to lead five thousand people to lurk in the mountains north of Huguan so that they can flank the enemy at the right time."
"Okay!" Ximen Qing slapped the table: "Since most of the brothers are gearing up to fight, there is no need to stay in Huguan. Ten thousand people will be left there to guard Huguan, and the other troops will go to camp ten miles south of Zhaode.
Let’s make another plan. What does the marshal think?”
Dadaoguan Sheng was also convinced, so he arranged for four generals, Deng Fei, Ou Peng, Wen Zhongrong, and Cui Ye, to lead 10,000 soldiers to guard Huguan, while the other 80,000 or so soldiers marched to camp ten miles south of Zhaode City.
.
. In addition, other main stores, including brothel Goulan and Jingyang Chun, have all disappeared.
Pan Jinlian was the first to realize that something was strange. Although the shipment volume was still at a normal level, except for Chuixuelou himself, there was no one on the market who could buy it anymore. Jingyang disappeared from people's eyes.
Chuixuelou's business suddenly increased by 30% compared to before. Whether it was the main store or a branch, there were always people queuing up. There were also many customers who sat down and asked Jingyang Chun to pack up and leave without ordering anything.
"Liu Niang, something is wrong." Mrs. Jia also saw that something was wrong. All these will be sold out by night. Isn't there someone behind your back?"
"Sister, don't be anxious. The slave family has long seen that something is wrong." Pan Jinlian pulled Jia to the accounting room of Chuixue Building: "Don't make it public for now, secretly send a thief to follow those guests who only want Jingyang Chun. Take a look.
What the hell is it?"
Jia thought for a while and said: "Why don't you let the second master find someone to do this kind of thing? The Imperial City Division is the best at this kind of thing. Our gangster serving tea and water is fine, but for a job like this, naturally,
It’s better to find professionals.”
Pan Jinlian nodded slightly, and waited for dinner with Wu Song in the evening.
Wu Song has always been bold and careful. Hearing Pan Jinlian's words, he immediately felt that something was wrong. Judging from the current situation, Chuixuelou's profit has not fluctuated much, because the sales of Jingyang Chun have always been in accordance with the regulations set by Ximen Qing.
Regardless of whether it is retail or wholesale to regular stores, there is always a quota.
On the surface, Chuixue Tower is run by Pan Jinlian, but behind it is the support of the Imperial City Division. Although it is not considered to be the property of the Imperial City Division, if something goes wrong, the Imperial City Division will not ignore it.
"Should we temporarily adjust the quota and see what the other party does?" Pan Jinlian asked.
"Not yet." Wu Song replied: "We should follow the rules set by the elder brother, how many goods should be shipped every day; no matter who is behind this, as time goes by, the flaws will inevitably be revealed. If we suddenly increase the shipment volume,
Maybe you just played into the opponent's hands."
"Starting from tomorrow, I will arrange for the black-clothed police officer of the Imperial City Department to be responsible for tracking your type of person." Wu Song continued: "I hope to get some information. Do you want to inform big brother?"
Pan Jinlian shook her head decisively and said: "No. The high official is already busy with affairs when he conquers Tian Hu at the front. We can't even handle this matter well at the rear, but it only distracts him."
Wu Song looked at Pan Jinlian's serious eyes and sighed secretly, as if he had returned to that snowy night and saw the sister-in-law who was said to have "an arm that can move a horse".
"Since Liu Niang has made up her mind, Wu Song will not inform her elder brother." Wu Song smiled slightly: "If there is any news, Wu Song will ask the police officer in black to send a message to Liu Niang." Twenty-five thousand yuan has been spent.
." In the mysterious courtyard of Baihua Building, Sang Sanniang frowned and thought: "Master, do you really want to continue?"
It won’t turn into clean water, no matter how much money we spend, we won’t suffer a loss, right?”
"But according to the master's plan." The name Sang Sanniang disappears?" Cai You chuckled: "Baihua Building is my property, Mr. Cai. What I want to do with it is my business. Sanniang, are you?
."
"yes."
Sang Sanniang lowered her head and responded, but suddenly felt a chill in her heart.
