Two hundred and eighty-six assassin night attack
Around the hour of Hai, heavy rain fell on Luoyang, lightning and thunder were rising one after another, making Fang Li's heart cool. Recommended: The new work of the master Wangyu: "The Nightmare Palace of Six Traces" http://m./0_3/
Jia Xu held the candlelight and frowned and pondered, his eyes kept wandering on the map.
Fang Li walked around the study anxiously, and his boots slammed on the floor and banged: "Wenhe, how did our army gather?"
Jia Xu woke up from his meditation, thought for a while and replied: "Everyone has transferred from Gancheng to Kundu, and there are currently less than 50,000 people in their seats."
South Korea has a total of 160,000 troops. In addition to the defenders from all over the country, the country can mobilize only 100,000 soldiers who can mobilize the Tang Dynasty. However, the victory is that the land area is relatively small, and it can be assembled in Shuduo in less than half a month.
However, the Tang Dynasty's territory was vast, especially the north and south were too long. Even if the 100,000 troops from Yanzhou, Sizhou, Shaoliang and other places did not pass through Gancheng, they would never be able to gather in Kundu for a month and a half. Moreover, the brainwashing of the Zhou army had not been completed. If the war started at this time, Fang Li would not dare to let them go to the battlefield.
"Forget it, no matter so much!" Fang Li stopped resentfully, "I will order the troops from all over the country to move directly to Kundu without passing Gancheng again. The 25,000 Tang troops in the Gancheng camp also set out immediately, allowing the 10,000 Wei troops stationed in Quwo to act at the same time!"
As he said that, he was about to summon the servant to come in and polish the ink. Jia Xu, who had been standing in front of the map and pondering, suddenly spoke: "Let's wait!"
Fang Li swallowed the call that had just arrived at his mouth and looked at Jia Xu in confusion: "Wenhe has any other suggestions?"
"The more you are, the more you should not be impatient." Jia Xu put the candlestick back on the shelf at hand. "Han Wu was just dispatching troops at this time, which does not mean that he already knew the lord's plan and began to guard against our army."
"I know." Fang Li frowned impatiently, "But once the Korean army gathers into force, our army's plan to fight quickly will be completely lost, and I must not be anxious!"
Jia Xu smiled slowly and said, "Don't worry, lord, even if Han Wu wants to mobilize troops to defend the border, he will not be able to mobilize a hundred thousand troops in a short while."
"What does it mean?" Fang Li slowly eased his expression, "My Tang Dynasty's troops are twice as powerful as his South Korea. Will Han Wu throw all the troops from all over the country against me?"
"Of course Han Wu wants it, but it's a pity that he has no soldiers to adjust!" Jia Xu stroked his beard with confidence, "Lord, I forgot that Han Fei is not an ordinary minister who was allowed to be killed by Han Wu. He is a Korean prince, with territory and private soldiers, and has prestige in the central army of the court. Han Wu wants to kill him at this time. No matter what the reason is, can he not dispatch troops and generals to guard against the domestic forces against the counterattack?"
"What's more, in addition to internal troubles, South Korea also has external troubles." Jia Xu pointed to the northwest of the map. "Please see, the northwest border of South Korea is close to Baidi, not far from Yiqu. It is disturbed almost every year, especially in autumn. The Qin State is too strong, Yiqu dares not act rashly, so I am not so polite to South Korea."
"Even so, the grassland people fight the autumn wind only in autumn. Even if they attack the border in early spring, they will not advance in large numbers." Fang Li was still puzzled, "The border army that fought against Han Wu's small trouble would be able to deal with it, and he would not be too concerned about it."
"But if the grassland people knew that South Korea was going to be in chaos, would they take the opportunity to find something for Han Wu?" Jia Xu reminded softly.
After hearing Jia Xu's words, Fang Li frowned even deeper, and a cold light flashed in his eyes: "Did you ask me to introduce Rongdi on the grassland into the Central Plains?"
"I have no intention!" Jia Xu was stunned and hurriedly lowered his head and explained, "Everyone in the Rongdi on the grassland will be killed. When the lord horse stepped on South Korea, he can drive them back to the grassland in one go!"
To change the soup or not, we should take advantage of the opportunity of Rong Di invasion of the Central Plains to make South Korea, which is also a Central Plains country, worsen.
Fang Li remained silent. In rationality, he knew that Jia Xu was right. Tempting Rong Di to attack Han and dispersing the Korean army's troops was the best choice to achieve twice the result with half the effort.
But rationally, as long as you think that the grassland barbarians would slaughter the Central Plains people regardless of age, they would be unable to make up their minds to push Korean border residents into the fire pit.
Back then, people were used to harass the Qin border because they knew that the Qin army was strong and the Yiqu people could not really enter Xianyang. But now, South Korea is not strong at all. Once they are attacked from both sides, Rongdi's horse hooves can drive in and harm the people of the Central Plains without any scruples.
Before the Tang army drove them back to the grassland, countless innocent people would have died under the barbarian sabers.
In a blink of an eye, the hour of Hai was half over, and the voice of Yu Chong's vicissitudes suddenly sounded outside the door: "Lord, my wife asks you when will you go to bed?"
Fang Li paused and woke up from his thoughts. Seeing that Jia Xu was still bowing his head respectfully, he was obviously waiting for a reply, and couldn't help but sigh: "This matter is of great importance, let me think about it."
Jia Xu took a breath and replied after a while: "No."
The king and his minister were speechless, and the candlelight in the study was clearly extinguished, and the atmosphere became a little awkward.
After a while, Jia Xu seemed to have figured out something, his eyes eased, and he took the initiative to bow, "There is another thing to report back to the lord. In addition to dispatching domestic soldiers and generals, Han Wu also sent envoys to Qin and Zhao for reinforcements."
"Qin State?" Fang Li pondered, "Ba State and Yiqu have not been settled yet. Ying Renhao will not get involved in this muddy water. However, Zhao Yong's recent attitude is a bit strange."
Jia Xu nodded: "Lord, I am willing to go to Zhao State. No matter what happens, I will definitely not let Zhao choose to turn against him at this time."
"No, you have to stay in Luoyang to take charge of the inner guards for me." Fang Li refused without thinking, "The situation has changed rapidly recently, and Luoyang cannot do without you, so let Cheng Zhongde run this trip for me."
Jia Xu bowed his head and took the order.
Halfway through midnight, the heavy rain gradually became lighter and the thunder gradually became smaller and smaller until it disappeared.
It was late at night and the martial law was lifted. Even though Luoyang had already lifted the martial law, there was no trace of people on the street. Everyone was in a dream. Only the soldiers who were patrolling the night and the updater were still standing at their posts.
In the east city of Luoyang, the inn where envoys from various countries lived had already been immersed in the darkness. Han Fei was the same. He was very tired when dealing with the banquets. He was almost in trouble when he was close to the Tang Dynasty. He fell asleep as soon as he returned to the inn. At this time, he was sleeping.
A team of Tang soldiers in yellow robe and black armor lined up by the inn gate. The leader looked around the inn vigilantly, and then followed the soldiers and continued to move forward.
Not long after the soldiers left, three figures suddenly emerged from the stable outside the inn. They gathered together and whispered for a while, then flexibly climbed over the courtyard wall and entered the inn and headed straight to a guest room on the third floor.
The three figures had just disappeared, and the Tang soldiers who had already walked by suddenly walked back. The head of the soldiers waved their hand, and the twenty soldiers instantly dispersed, hiding in the shadows around the inn.
On the third floor, with the dim moonlight, three men in black could be seen sneaking up on a closed door. After squatting down to confirm that there was no movement inside, they tacitly pulled out a dagger from their waists and broke into the door with a "bang".
There was no need to communicate, the two of them were guarding the doors and windows respectively. The rest of them rushed to the edge of the bed in the inner room. Seeing a ball of bedding on the couch, they couldn't help but smile coldly and stabbed it with a knife.
The mattress made a harsh "squeak" sound. The man in black was stunned and found that his hand was not right. He hurriedly lifted the mattress, but found that there were only a few pillows placed side by side inside, not even half a figure.
Realizing that the man in black who was trapped wanted to remind his companions to evacuate, but it was too late. A chaotic footsteps came from outside, followed by two dull crys, and then quieted down again.
The man in black ran to the window in two steps. When he looked down, he found that the lights were already brightly lit below. A hundred fully armed Tang soldiers surrounded the inn, and more than a dozen Yuanshu crossbowmen were placing their bows and arrows at the windows upstairs.
The footsteps outside were getting closer and closer. The man in black who realized that he could not escape was about to raise his knife and commit suicide. Just when the blade was less than a millimeter from his neck, a roar sounded from behind. The man in black felt a sharp pain in the back of his head, and then his eyes turned dark and he was unconscious.
He picked up the fainted man in black with one hand and was still with the other two accomplices. Hua Xiong, who was sure that he was safe, pushed open the door and clasped his fists at Sun Ce and Han Fei who were already waiting outside the door: "General Han, Captain Sun, and the assassin have been taken down by the last general!"
"Take it down for a strict interrogation, don't let them commit suicide easily." Sun Ce waved his hand and looked at Han Fei who was surprised next to him, "General Han, the soldiers here still need to clean up. Let's go to the room below to rest for a while?"
Han Fei nodded with a blank expression, followed Sun Ce into a room that had been prepared on the second floor under the escort of the soldiers, closed the door, and could not believe everything he saw until he sat down.
Han Fei was very familiar with the martial arts of those assassins. They were all dead soldiers raised in the Korean palace, and they could not be transferred unless they were ordered by Han Gong.
The noise outside the inn gradually became louder, and many envoys from other countries were awakened by the sudden commotion and sent people to question what had happened.
Sun Ce waved his hand and asked the soldiers to guard the door, and then poured a cup of hot tea for Han Fei himself, chuckling: "The general didn't expect that? Mr. Han could do such a ruthless move."
Han Fei picked up the teacup and took a sip, and suddenly smiled bitterly, "Since I first came to Luoyang, I wanted to say that Captain Sun would rather say that Han Fei is here."
Sun Ce was stunned. He didn't expect that Han Fei's first sentence would be this, and he didn't know what to reply for a while.
"The reason why the lord killed the emperor is also due to Duke Tang, right?" Han Fei's expression quickly returned to calmness. "I believe that Duke Tang's ability to highly respect his subordinates has already spread to South Korea. Is this right?"
After a while of silence, Sun Ce suddenly laughed: "Sir, you'd better have a sharp eye, if Mr. Han, that's the same, what's the case with him?" Find this site to search for "cm" or enter the website:
