Chapter 261 Did the other side attack the city today?(1/2)
"Mr. Fengyang is interested." Jiang Cheng was happy for Baozhu that Mr. Fengyang could think of her like this.
He was not stupid and quickly figured out the key.
"Mr. Fengyang comes here this time to persuade the He family to send troops to deal with the Huang family in Huangzhou?"
Ye Yunzhou didn't intend to hide it from him: "Of course, although Chaoyuan County is developing well now, it's a pity that it has only been developed for a year, so it can't make too many enemies."
He came here to help Baozhu gain time for development.
In order to capture Nanzhou Prefecture, he would unite with the He family to annex Huangzhou and Qingzhou, and secretly develop their power.
Even if you can't dominate the world in the end, you can still live in a small corner.
"Young master, you are a person with great ability to govern the world, but you lack the strategy to conquer the world. I happen to be good at this, so you can leave these to me."
Thinking about it this way, he and the young master just made up for each other's shortcomings.
Suddenly, I felt a surge of pride. He and the young lady were a match made in heaven.
No, no, how could he and the young master be a match made in heaven? At most, they just share the same bad taste.
"She is lucky to have Mr. Fengyang in Baozhu." Jiang Cheng said with emotion.
A great talent like Mr. Fengyang would never just treat him to a drink and a meal: "Sir, what do you have to tell me?"
"Zhongzhou seems to be powerful, but it is actually a loose sand. Not to mention other things, the He family is not as peaceful as it seems. Sooner or later, it will be annexed. The head of the He family is ambitious but incompetent, and there is no useful person around him. This is
Sooner or later."
Ye Yunzhou took a sip of the wine. The spicy taste entered his stomach and made him feel warm all over.
"There are many young masters in the He family, but most of them have developed the bad habits of the noble family. They are arrogant and have low ambitions. Except for you, the seventh young master He, who is still a bit talented, the others... tsk tsk, I don't mean to say it, I really don't have the eyes to see it.
"
Ye Yunzhou is determined to join the world and already knows these aristocratic families well.
"I'm afraid you have seen things more clearly than I have in these years in Zhongzhou."
Jiang Cheng smiled bitterly. He originally only wanted to be an ordinary student who wanted to gain fame, but he never expected to be involved in a dispute over the world.
"The He family is indeed as Mr. He said. Unfortunately...Brother He and I have a life-saving grace. I...can't betray him."
Ye Yunzhou shook his head: "Don't worry. I won't embarrass you. You only need to control the power of the He family for Young Master He Qi. Then I will have a plan to make the He family willingly surrender to the female Young Master."
Jiang Cheng breathed a sigh of relief and was determined, as long as he was not allowed to murder He Shoutang.
Now that they had a plan in mind, the two of them stopped talking about world affairs. Under Ye Yunzhou's guidance intentionally or unintentionally, Jiang Cheng slowly told some interesting stories about Baozhu, Mingzhu and the others.
Among them are the silly parts of Baozhu, and how as a five-year-old child, he drives away a group of wolves, tigers and leopards to protect his loved ones.
After three rounds of drinking, Jiang Cheng was so drunk that he lost consciousness.
Ye Yunzhou stood up unsteadily and burped: "Where did Xiao Zhuozi die? Why don't you come over quickly and help me to rest?"
Xiao Zhuozi, who had just laid down, had to get up and cursed in his heart: "What a resentful master. Damn it, I won't be able to sleep well tonight."
…
The two people in the temple were drunk and unconscious.
However, the arrival of Ye Yunzhou in Zhongzhou disrupted the situation.
It has been confirmed that Yi Guangzhen is leading an army of 50,000 people, heading towards Zhongzhou, and will arrive in Zhongzhou in three days.
The Qingzhou Lin family seemed to feel that they had King Kang as their backer, so they started jumping up and down and constantly provoking the Zhongzhou He family.
On the one hand, troops were sent to reinforce Nanzhou, and on the other hand, troops were sent to attack Zhongzhou.
The head of the He family couldn't sit still, and apart from him, the other aristocratic families in Zhongzhou couldn't sit still either.
"What should we do? I didn't expect that the damn Lin family has actually secretly defected to the imperial court, and in turn wants to attack us."
"Father, don't worry. Isn't Mr. Fengyang still here? Why not ask Mr. Fengyang to come over?"
He Shoutang stood up and reminded.
"Yes, yes, hurry up, go and ask for Mr. Fengyang."
Everyone in the palace was waiting anxiously.
As a result, I didn't wait for Mr. Fengyang, but I did wait for a letter.
"Master, when we rushed to the inn, Mr. Fengyang was no longer there. Only this letter was on the table."
"What! Mr. Fengyang is gone."
The head of the He family was shocked and hurriedly took the letter and read its lines.
Only then did he feel slightly at peace: "Sir, he said, let us cooperate with Chaoyuan County. If nothing happens, Nanzhou City will be destroyed tonight."
At this time, the staff of the He family and the children of the He family were silent. Tonight is New Year's Eve.
This year’s New Year’s Eve is really...uneasy.
"Female, everything is ready. Do you really want to light a fire?"
Yang Dawei put on black night clothes. Tonight he will lead more than a hundred tiger and wolf soldiers to attack Nanzhou City at night.
This was also their first actual combat, and they were somewhat excited.
Unexpectedly, the opportunity to make a great contribution came so quickly.
"Of course I do. Today is New Year's Eve, and the first day of the Lunar New Year is only half a quarter of an hour away. Let's think of it as our New Year's gift to the soldiers and the people in Nanzhou City."
On the Nanzhou City Tower, Ma Chang was pacing back and forth: "Isn't that bastard Wang Defa here again?"
The deputy general in charge of guarding the city glanced at him strangely: "I haven't been here again today. Tonight is New Year's Eve. The other side should be busy celebrating the New Year like us."
Ma Chang put his hands on his hips and said, "Bah, I don't believe in Wang Defa's bastard. You all must guard with all your strength. I'll go to the south gate to have a look."
"It shouldn't be so. This person knows that the general won't be fooled, so he probably has given up." said the deputy general.
It's New Year's Eve tonight. We all want to have a safe year, but it's unlucky to be beaten and killed.
On the Nancheng side, Hong Guang did not dare to relax. He stood on the tower and smelled the aroma of meat coming from the opposite side, feeling very anxious.
The other side shouldn't have trouble thinking about attacking the city on New Year's Eve, right?
He asked with some suspicion: "You really haven't been here today?"
"General, you have asked your subordinates no less than ten times, the enemy really did not attack the city today."
Today each of them had a small piece of meat and a steamed bun. This was their New Year's Eve dinner.
But the opposite party was eating meat, drinking wine, and singing.
It's so annoying to compare people to each other.
"A gust of flying wind is blowing, and it is filled with the smell of wine. If the people on the other side drink wine, they probably won't attack the city. General, how about... we go out of the city to kill them by surprise?"
By the way, they grabbed all the food on the opposite side. They had been smelling the smell of meat for two days, but they were all greedy.
They are all grown-up men with huge appetites, and even a piece of meat is not enough to fit between their teeth.
They have been guarding the tower for more than half a month without even having a full meal. Now the soldiers have lost their original morale.
What are they soldiers for?
It's not just to have a full meal, but now it's better not to have a full meal, but to fight on an empty stomach.
Don't be a ghost to starve to death, they are really... so miserable.
But the person opposite was drinking, eating meat and singing, which made them feel even more unbalanced and they really envied the person opposite.
How could Hong Guang not understand their thoughts?
Not to mention they were envious, even he was envious, but so what?
The city lord is his adoptive father, so he cannot betray him just because of this petty gain.
Just when they thought Baozhu and the others would not attack the city tonight, suddenly there was an earth-shaking loud noise above Baozhu's tent.
"Boooooooh!!!" Several bursts of fire burst into the pitch-black sky.
The shocked city defenders all raised their heads and looked into the dark night sky. With this sound, colorful fireworks exploded above the Baozhu tent.
"This, what is this?"
People who had never seen fireworks raised their heads one after another, and people inside and outside the city were admiring the spectacle.
"The gods have appeared!"
The people in the city ran out of their homes, looked at the fireworks blooming in the night sky, and screamed in surprise.
"Tonight, only success is allowed and no failure is allowed. The first thing to do when entering the city is to open the city gate and let the young lady enter the city."
Taking advantage of the fireworks to attract the attention of the soldiers on the tower, Yang Dawei led a hundred tiger and wolf soldiers to ambush under the tower, ready to climb the tower at any time and attack and kill the people on the tower.
Bao Zhu had summoned all the soldiers and horses, and looked at the soldiers hiding in the woods, who were completely dark but whose eyes were bright.
"We have been planning for so many days, and we are going to the city tonight. Before that, I want to ask you, is the pig-killing rice delicious?"
"tasty!"
