Chapter 2050: Interception
Very cold!
The spring grassland is so cold in the morning and evening that people shiver!
Zhu Gaoxu got up and cursed the thief. Then he washed up casually and found the scouts.
"How far is Fang Xing from here?"
The scout had just returned. He was half wet and his face was ashen. He was trembling and said: "Your Highness, Xinghebo has led his troops to the place twenty miles behind. However, Xinghebo ordered the whole army to rest and did not rush on the road at night."
"What was he thinking about?"
Zhu Gaoxu glared, and Chang Jianxun, who came over with a bowl of noodles, took a step back.
The scout said: "Xinghebo said... he wants to give Pugu and Wuen a shock!"
"What's the meaning?"
Zhu Gaoxu was a little impatient. He preferred to think about problems in a straight line, so when Youfang Xing was there, he didn't care about anything except staring in the general direction.
The scout said: "Xinghebo means... that Pugu and Wuen will always be happy as long as they have hope..."
Zhu Gaoxu understood and cursed: "Those who are twisting and turning are not good people!"
After breakfast, Zhu Gaoxu sent people to take turns to provoke him.
…
"... Pugu, women are stronger than you. Touch your crotch yourself. Are those two ounces of flesh still there? If not, go to the palace to serve His Majesty..."
"Wu En, I heard that you became Pugu's forbidden concubine? You don't understand forbidden concubine? That means... you like men! Hahahaha!"
"..."
Wu En was a little annoyed, but he could only be annoyed.
"These are just ways to anger us, it's no big deal."
Pugu sneered at this and analyzed: "I judge that the so-called His Highness who leads the army should be the King of Han who only knows how to charge and kill. I heard that this man is stupid. It is a pity that he did not seize the opportunity yesterday, otherwise we can make him become a king from now on. Prisoner."
The Ming army below kept shouting and cursing. Occasionally they would catch a glimpse of the lax defenses on the city, and they would rush up, shoot arrows and then flee back in a hurry.
"Disgusting clown!"
Pugu didn't hide. When he saw the Ming troops who had sneaked the attack and fled back, he couldn't help laughing and said: "This is a desperate move to vent their anger. It's also good at making the people below more alert, lest the siege of the city gets longer. Getting more relaxed."
After watching for a while, he saw that the Ming army was just provoking the generals, so Pugu asked Wu En to watch from the top of the city while he went back to rest.
He stayed up all night last night just to be prepared for the Ming army's night attack.
Falling on the bed, Pugu whispered: "Keep an eye on Wu En. If he wants to run away, then... kill him!"
"yes."
Pugu thought about the arrangement for a while and felt that there were no mistakes or omissions, so he gradually fell asleep.
…
"Uncle, the enemy troops are still in the city!"
The Jubaoshan Guards marched mightily on the grassland, not very fast.
It was already lunch time, and a team of scouts sent the latest enemy information.
Fang Xing looked at the sky and said, "Have a rest and have lunch!"
The scout was astonished. He had walked twenty miles, fifteen miles since morning, but he had not walked the last five miles...
"I want biscuits and pickles."
Fang Xing was not in a hurry at all, and his subordinates naturally took their time.
The scout felt that Fang Xing's behavior was like deceiving others, so he hurriedly left and went back to report to Zhu Gaoxu.
"Whatever he wants."
Knowing that Fang Xing was behind him, Zhu Gaoxu didn't bother to pretend, and ordered: "Send out the rangers to check the left and right."
This is to clear the left and right wings for Fang Xingbu.
After lunch, the harassment continued. As time went on, the scoldings of those Ming soldiers became more and more unpleasant...
Just scold me. Except for a few people, no one will understand.
After suffering a loss, the Ming army never approached the city wall again.
This is the stalemate stage.
Pugu woke up from sleep and went up to the city in high spirits. When he saw that the Ming army was still doing the same thing, he smiled and said: "They are riding lightly and don't have much food and grass. They can take three days at most. If they don't retreat after three days, then wait." Starve to death halfway."
Wu En stayed at the top of the city. He said with some confusion: "Pugu, Mingren are not fools. If there is not enough food and grass, then they should take action now, even if they risk their lives, otherwise they should evacuate."
Missing a hit, he immediately ran away!
This is a technique that everyone knows, similar to that of an assassin!
"Who knows!"
Pugu dealt with it casually, but gave his subordinates a wink, and then arranged his people everywhere to keep an eye on the movements of the Ming army at any time.
"We need to send someone out! Send someone out right now!"
Wu En suddenly shouted nervously, and the people around him looked away with disdain, cursing secretly in their hearts.
It's frustrating to have a timid leader.
Pugu nodded and said, "Okay!"
In fact, the uneasiness in his heart was stronger than that of Wu En, but he needed to maintain a calm image, otherwise the coalition's people would lose heart.
More than five hundred people quietly gathered at the top of the city.
Pugu came down and said: "After you go out, go behind the Ming army. Once you are there, don't come back. Use the horn to send a message, and then...may the gods bless you..."
This was an investigative operation with no return. Pugu nodded and the wine bag was brought up.
This is strong liquor, the only remaining trophy from Mingren's baggage.
The strong drink was like fire, stimulating the nerves.
The city gate slowly opened...
More than five hundred cavalry suddenly rushed out. The Ming army team who was yelling and cursing outside was stunned for a moment, and then retreated.
The horn sounded, and the Ming cavalry behind them began to charge.
"This is going to..."
Zhu Gaoxu was watching with a telescope. When he saw the enemy troops running from the left and right, he sneered: "If you want to go to Samarkand, go to their right. Now we are divided into two directions..."
"No need to intercept!"
"Give Fang Xing the order to begin!"
The horn horn gradually passed back...
"No interception!"
Wu En watched expressionlessly as the cavalry divided into two groups began to circle around the back of the Ming army.
As long as it is found out that the Ming army has no reinforcements, then...
"Get ready, everyone gather together!"
Pugu looked at this smooth scene with a solemn expression, and whispered to Wu En: "We have to break out!"
Wu En nodded, "Ming Ren did not intercept, that means there are reinforcements behind us. Once we are surrounded, we..."
Assemble!
Countless cavalry began to mount their horses, and then took turns to receive grain, grass and arrows.
"Take as much as you can! This place will be burned down later, and no food will be left for Akito!"
Pugu and Wu En stood on the top of the city, neither of them moved.
"us……"
"Take away the elite."
The two of them nodded at the same time, deciding to cut off their tails to survive and abandon most of their subordinates.
The two of them went down, mounted their horses and looked at Lu Xi's assembled subordinates from the side.
"Defeat Akito!"
As usual, it was Unn's job to boost morale.
He smiled and said: "Our military strength is about the same as that of Akito. The test just now shows one thing, that is, Akito is intimidating us, so go defeat them and then harvest prisoners..."
"Over in Samarkand, my brother Meergan and the future King Halle said that as long as we can get three thousand Ming people's heads, we will be heroes, and countless supplies and soldiers will arrive here in a steady stream... "
Unn is also cheering these ‘cannon fodder’.
"Open the door!"
The city gate slowly opened, and the 'cannon fodder' cheered and then rushed out.
"The Ming Dynasty will be victorious!"
This is the decisive battle!
Zhu Gaoxu pointed his long sword forward, and the Ming army shouted and rushed over.
As the distance got closer, arrows poured in the air towards the opponent.
After countless shouts, the two sides collided.
Then the screams never stopped.
In the city, Pugu and Wu En, who had already brought their elite men to the back door, rushed out happily.
"Go to Samarkand! Mingren is aggressive, and Meergan cannot sit back and watch. He can only treat us who are the most experienced with Mingren... Wu En?"
Pugu saw a trembling Wu En, with fear written on his face.
"Withdraw!"
Wu En was the first to turn around with a pale expression, and then the elites followed closely.
Pugu shouted: "Kill out! Otherwise we will have no way out!"
He screamed heartbreakingly, but except for his subordinates, no one responded.
He turned sideways and looked forward, shouting in pain: "Go back to the city!"
Without Wu En's cooperation, he had no confidence to break through the line of defense in front.
That steel defense line appears in front!
