Chapter 193 The Beginning of the War
"Come here, prepare your horses! I want to leave the city myself."

There are few pedestrians on the streets at night, and they evade early when they hear the sound of horseshoes in the distance.

Song Lide galloped on his horse and soon arrived at the south gate of Liangzhou City.

Compared with the strict defense at the north gate, although the south gate also had investigations, they had to be more relaxed after all. Coupled with Song Lide's status as the governor of the state, he left the city without much trouble.

Going west two miles further, there was a lonely farmhouse. Song Lide was stationed in front of the door, and he went up and knocked on the door lightly.

"Who? It's already rested!"

An impatient male voice came from inside the house.

Song Lide did not answer and continued to knock on the door.

With a "squeak", half of his wrinkled face appeared, meeting Song Lide's eyes.

The man quickly stretched out his head again, scanned left and right, opened the door just now, and said with a flattering smile: "Master Song, hurry up, please come inside."

Inside the house, the sound of "cuckoo" was faintly heard, and as a little light gradually rose, it revealed the simple and dilapidated furnishings.

"I want to deliver a letter to Wu Guo's military tent, the sooner the better." Song Lide said calmly.

"Fei Nu has already prepared it, Master Song just needs to leave it to the villain."

"No, this time I will send it myself."

The man was stunned for a moment, then bowed slightly: "The little man will take it out now."

The door to the back room was opened, and the sound of cooing became clearer.

"This is the fastest short-distance one, and it will be delivered in less than two minutes."

While talking, he took out a carrier pigeon.

Song Lide took out the letter and put it into the bamboo tube on his feet.

"You protect me for a while, and then go to Liangjie Ridge."

The man was puzzled and said: "Master Song, you have obviously released Fei Nu to pass the letter, why do you still have to go there in person?"

"What do you know?"

Song Lide glared at him.

"One letter is for speed and the other is for stability. It must be delivered to General Zhao quickly and securely. Once this is done, we will have the capital to settle down and live in the future!"

"All according to Master Song's arrangement!"

In the deserted field outside the house, the homing pigeons flew higher and higher under Song Lide's gaze.

The houses and fields become smaller and smaller, and the outline of Liangzhou City gradually emerges: the ruins in the south of the city are still faintly scattered with smoke and dust; in the east of the city and in the city, the sounds of drinking and singing can be heard from time to time, which is completely different from the north of the city, where ten houses and nine houses are scattered. It was empty, leaving only some people who were inconvenient to take refuge.

The street was originally lifeless, but at this time, I saw a carriage driving towards the west of the city, and finally stopped in front of the gate of Hongwuhui.

"Master Zhang Jiang, someone is visiting."

Qian Sancai glared at him, but Meng Chao quickly changed his words.

In the hall, everyone in Guishuitang was discussing matters, and the atmosphere was a little depressed.

Zhang Yong saw it with a smile: "Okay, President Xu, come with me to have a look?"

"No need, I'll come in by myself."

I didn't see him, but I heard Feng Chengxin's hearty laughter.

Everyone hurriedly stood up to greet him.

The gatekeepers were all Feng Chengyi's subordinates, so naturally they didn't dare to stop the commander-in-chief.

Seeing the disciples following Feng Chengyi on the left and right, Qian Sancai smiled and said: "It turns out that after a long time of hard work, this Hongwu Association has the surname Feng."

"President Qian doesn't have to be like this."

Feng Chengyi walked into the lobby with wind blowing under his feet.

"The incident happened suddenly and I received important news, so I came here in a hurry."

Le Xinyan explained: "General Feng, that's what he is like. Just ignore him and tell him what the news is."

Feng Chengzhi found a chair and sat down casually.

"This is the first thing. Song Lide went out of the city overnight. I guess it was your doing?"

Seeing that Zhang Yong and Qian Sancai nodded, Feng Chengyi went on to say: "The second thing is the news from the capital that General Fan Wenyuan and Fan Wenyuan led [-] elite soldiers to help, and they will arrive in Liangzhou in five days."

Zhang Yong was surprised: "10,000? Is [-] enough? Doesn't Wu have [-]+ people?"

"How much do you really believe what others say?"

Feng Chengyi was a little worried: "Based on the danger, 5 is enough. The key is whether there are [-] people and how heavy the luggage is. Also, whether we can keep it for five days."

"The Wu army should all arrive in ten days, but they should also have received news of reinforcements. It is impossible to sit back and watch General Fan arrive in Liangzhou before sending troops. It is more likely to take action in advance."

Meng Liang asked, "You mean a tunnel attack?"

Feng Chengzhi raised his hand: "We have already prepared for the tunnel attack, so there is nothing to worry about. The focus is on the aftermath of the attack."

Then he asked Zhang and Yong: "You have had contact with Song Lide, do you know when the enemy will attack?"

Zhang Yonglue recalled: "According to Song Lide's letter, the tunnel will not be completed until two days later."

"Two days. That is to say, if we resist this attack, we have to defend the city for another three days."

Feng Chengyi frowned, and Zhang Yong couldn't help being curious: "How many troops do we have in Liangzhou City?"

"...less than [-], you have to count the auxiliary soldiers and the newly recruited recruits."

There was silence in the hall.

Zhang Yong smiled: "It's always a good thing to have reinforcements. After five days, all hardships will come to an end."

"So, the next deployment is all about delay."

"What's Feng Zongbing's plan?"

Feng Chengzhi looked around and said seriously: "First of all, the enemy troops in the tunnel have to be let in."

"what?!"

Everyone exclaimed.

In their original plan, after Wu Guo replied, they would set up traps in the tunnel, so that it would be easy to keep the tunnel, but now they want to let people in.
"There is no way around this. If people are intercepted and killed in the tunnel, the enemy will soon find out that something is wrong and turn to attack the front."

Feng Chengyi looked at everyone with piercing eyes.

"However, if they are brought into the city and intercepted and killed in batches, firstly, more enemies can be eliminated; secondly, the street fighting in the city will give full play to our advantages; thirdly, the opponent will not react too quickly and can win more enemies. time."

Seeing that Meng Liang and others were still thinking, Feng Chengyi said anxiously: "The enemy's force is huge, and we have to fight for every inch to have a chance of survival. Besides, if we prepare in advance, it is not too difficult to ambush on the road we must pass."

Meng Liang looked at the other party, and said in a deep voice: "Let's decide this first, but the situation on the battlefield is changing rapidly, and I must first consider the safety of my brothers."

"Don't worry, the ambush is mainly done by my subordinates, and everyone from Guishuitang can help from the side."

Feng Chengyi frowned slightly: "Then, let's talk about how to prepare for these two days."

Just at the discussion booth of the Hongwu Meeting, on the other side, Song Lide rushed to the barracks, led by the soldiers to the front of the tent.

"Song Zhizhou, General Zhao is in the army tent, you just go in."

Song Lide's Adam's apple rolled, and he opened the tent tremblingly, but was startled by the loud voice.

"Mr. Song, please come in."

Song Lide moved to sit down, his cautious look caused all the soldiers to burst into laughter.

"quiet!"

General Zhao scolded, and then said: "I have received your letter. It just so happens that General Chen has a new order regarding the tunnel in the west of the city."

Song Lide bowed and asked, "I don't know what orders General Chen has?"

"We want to complete the tunnel within a day."

"Within a day?!"

Song Lide was a little surprised: "General Zhao, it's not that the subordinates are neglecting, even if they send more people."

General Zhao waved his hands again and again.

"Hey, Mr. Song is worrying too much. I won't be able to force others to do what they want. Lao Yang, explain to him."

"Yes!"

One person clasped his fists and stood up: "After the Ministry of Industry's guidance, we have found the correct location. General Chen ordered that the construction of the two boundary ridges be started at the same time, so that the tunnel can be completed in one day."

General Zhao said lightly: "This matter is just to inform you so that you can make arrangements early, not to embarrass you."

Song Lide bowed and shouted: "Wu Guo's grace is mighty, and the general is so considerate, it is really a blessing for us."

"From now on, we will both be members of the Wu Kingdom. Mr. Song's words are out of the question. If you have no objections, then it's settled like this."

Seeing Song Lide's happy face, General Zhao turned to the rest of the soldiers with satisfaction: "Lao Yang, I will leave this matter to you. Qiguo has sent [-] reinforcements, and we must take Liangzhou before the reinforcements arrive."

"Yes!"

"General Sun Lang, can the Pioneer Battalion go to battle?"

"Awaiting the general's order!"

"Okay, Cao Changshi, make a copy of tomorrow's deployment and hand it over to Zhizhou Song."

"Yes!"

The orders were issued one by one, and the murderous atmosphere gradually spread.

"Everyone, listen to me."

General Zhao knocked on the table and said loudly: "The danger of Qiguo is only in Liangzhou. Once Liangzhou is broken, we will let our army commanders drive straight in. I hope you will seize the good opportunity, and you will be promoted to the ranks!"

"Follow the general's orders!"

The sound shook the army tent, and even Song Lide blushed.

The prelude has already begun, and in the place where the two worlds are separated, the soldiers and soldiers of various families began to prepare for the battle with full confidence.

Song Lide rode his horse and galloped, holding the things on his chest tightly with one hand, his ecstasy was beyond words.

The heart is as broad as the plains, and the temples are free to fly. General Zhao's words, "We are also from the Wu Kingdom", made the trembling Song Lide feel certain.

The outline of Liangzhou City loomed in the distance, and it was much more pleasing to the eye now.

"You have to inform Mr. Jiang about this."

It seemed that the times were changing in the dark, and even the guards at the south gate were very knowledgeable about current affairs, so they didn't ask more questions.

Song Lide suppressed the excitement in his heart, made a big circle, and rode towards the west of the city.

The cool breeze in Liangzhou on a summer night calms down my complicated thoughts.

Walking slowly to Hongwuhui, the light in the lobby was bright, and someone was seen approaching from a distance.

"Master Song Song, why are you here?"

Song Lide smiled slightly: "Things have changed, I came here to inform Mr. Jiang so that he can make arrangements early."

"Things have changed?! Please wait a moment, Mr. Song, and I will pass it on."

After speaking, he ran to the lobby without looking back, and then there was no movement.

Song Lide touched the things on his chest, watched curiously for a while, and saw Jiang Tao strode out.

"Song Zhizhou, what a change, to bother you to make another trip?"

Song Lide glanced around: "Let's go in and talk."

"That's natural, why don't we discuss it in detail in the study?"

Song Lide glanced at the light in the lobby, and then walked to the study beside him.

　It’s only a chapter and a half, and writing the transition is a headache for me, but at least I can practice my writing. I hope you don’t get dizzy.
