Lingnan Gang

Su Beiqin and a group of people stood guard in the barracks at the rear, waiting for news from the two sides. The shouts and killings were loud two miles ahead, but the barracks was very quiet, except for the soldiers who were delivering letters, there was no movement.

After waiting for what seemed like a long time, and what seemed like a short while, a soldier with his face covered in muddy water knelt down in front of Su Beiqin and said, "General Gao sent me to report that the port in the city has been secured!"

Su Beiqin's face that looked like ice due to being too pale finally smiled at the news, "Thank you for sending a message, go down and rest."

The messenger took a breath, listened to the order and left. Su Beiqin waited patiently for a while, then called Qin Han, and said: "Go and inform the general, it's almost time, let him go back to the camp when he has had enough fun."

Qin Han patted his head in a daze, and without asking any further questions, he found a horse, turned over and left.

After a while, I heard the sound of war drums beating ahead, and the soaring shouts of killing gradually weakened. Wu Weiyang led the army to stroll back in a leisurely manner, and even confiscated all the siege equipment, leaving them all under the city wall, like a child's play generally.

With his hands in his sleeves, Su Beiqin watched the young general get off his horse with a rare smile and said, "Taiping has succeeded, and it's faster than I expected."

Wu Weiyang wiped his face, revealing his fair cheeks, but his forehead was still dirty, which looked quite funny, "This is a good thing, so that my son won't waste too much money."

Su Beiqin looked around, and there were soldiers returning to the camp all around him. Even though Wu Weiyang had already said that this battle was just a feint, many soldiers were still wounded on the battlefield. It didn't take long, and no one died.

Wu Weiyang hadn't confronted an enemy like this for a long time, his bluff made his blood boil, he grabbed Su Beiqin's shoulders, and led him into the camp, saying as he walked, "Let Qin Han recruit Ji...no , Call Jiang Tianhe to come back! Mr. Zhuang is also invited!"

Su Beiqin was held by his shoulders, with half of his weight on him, and he staggered a little when he walked, but his expression was not impatient, and he was still smiling. come over?"

Wu Weiyang looked at the sky and said: "There is still a lot of time in the middle of the night, just to be on the safe side, let him guard Qu Lin."

Su Beiqin nodded, "That's right, it's hard to guarantee that Zhou Guangcheng will think of this again when he turns around."

Wu Weiyang laughed loudly, "I think, he must be suspicious, why we retreat like this!"

After entering the tent, Wu Weiyang let go of Su Beiqin, squinting at the piece of black ash rubbed on Su Beiqin's side face by himself, he was even more happy, and without reminding him, he sat cross-legged behind the table, and took out a piece of cloth from below. A piece of crumpled paper came and spread it flat. The paper showed the layout of the city of Guangzhou. I don’t know how many times it has been seen and painted. It’s almost invisible. Wu Weiyang stared at the drawing, his fingertips twisted The black line was drawn for a while, and a murderous smile slowly appeared on his face, even the dimple seemed to have a layer of bloody smell floating on it.

Su Beiqin cleared his throat, and said in a low voice: "Everything is ready, there is still a real battle to be fought tonight, do you want to rest for a while?"

Wu Weiyang was about to refuse, he was just excited, but when he looked up and saw the cold expression of Su Bei Qin Qingqing, the blood in his body slowly cooled down, and the expression on his face also restrained a lot, after thinking for a while, Suddenly smiled and said: "If you rest with me..."

Su Beiqin didn't waste any time on his proposal, and just arranged for himself: "After a while, Mr. Zhuang and the others will come, and the whole plan will need to be deduced again, and a piece of equipment will need to be checked afterward. Not much, you'd better take a nap while you're free."

After speaking, he got up and went out, Yue Mo went to see if Zhuang Chu and the others had arrived.

Wu Weiyang smacked his lips in dissatisfaction, and fell down on his back. There was only a thin layer of blankets in the tent, which was uncomfortable, but he didn't care, just closed his eyes and put his whole body into a tense state. The muscles slowly relaxed.

When Zhuang Chu and others entered the tent, what they saw was such a scene. Zhuang Chu sat down lazily holding his black teapot that never left his body, and said with a smile: "Such a small battle will make the general tired." Is it like this?"

Wu Weiyang didn't open his eyes, but said lazily: "I just follow the instruction of the military master, but Mr. Zhuang, did you not scare your old man last night?"

Zhuang Chu chuckled twice, "Last night I slept until dawn, I don't know what can scare people."

Seeing the old and the young choking endlessly, Su Beiqin, who had already sat down on the left, had no choice but to say: "Taiping has already controlled the port, but he only brought two hundred people with him, and the port was closed before the war started." , it won’t be long to hide the strangeness there, so tonight we must act according to the plan, and we can only succeed and not fail!”

The last sentence was resounding, Zhuang Chu also sat down on the right, Wu Weiyang turned over, squatted behind the desk, knocked on the desk and said: "As soon as it gets dark, the 2000 soldiers will divide into two groups and go to the port to assist Gao Chengping, another way to sneak into the city through the moat water system and stir up civil strife in the city of Guangzhou, then look for an opportunity to meet up with Gao Chengping, and after the meeting, we will all obey his orders, this was confirmed before we set off."

Zhuang Chu stroked a strand of beard under his chin, nodded, and added: "At the same time, the general must lead the rest of the troops to provoke under the city wall to attract the attention of the Guangzhou defenders, so that the 2000 people who sneaked in must not be disturbed."

Jiang Tianhe also said: "Of the three parties, the one with the heaviest task is probably the one that sneaked into Guangzhou from the moat."

Su Beiqin shook his head, Jiang Tianhe frowned, and was about to say something, when he heard Zhuang Chu say: "The three parties are indispensable, if something goes wrong, this battle may not be easy to fight. If it goes well, then our side Little loss."

Jiang Tianhe pursed his lips, and only heard Su Beiqin ask: "Since Ji Baichuan is guarding Qulin, will Jiang Tianhe lead the group of people who dived into the city?"

Jiang Tianhe's eyes lit up, but Wu Weiyang denied it. He put his hand on his cheek, his expression was loose, and his attitude was very firm, "Jiang Tianhe's water quality is not good, no, I prefer Qin and Han."

Zhuang Chu frowned slightly, "But that kid..."

Su Beiqin pondered for a moment, and said: "It's not impossible. Qin Han was born in the south of the Yangtze River. It's common for him to dive to touch the lotus root. I'm afraid he has never led the army. If something goes wrong, he may not be able to cope."

Wu Weiyang said coldly: "It's better than generals drowning in the moat."

Seeing that he had made up his mind, Su Beiqin said, "Then I'll call him in and ask him to remember the water system and streets in Guangzhou."

He was about to get up, but Wu Weiyang said: "You don't need to go, there is nothing wrong with Tianhe, just go out, and let Qin Han come in by the way."

Jiang Tianhe went out with a sullen face.

When he went out, Zhuang Chu was puzzled and said: "Why is this so? If you let him guard Qu Lin, you don't have to take the risk of using Qin Han."

Wu Weiyang took a deep breath, "I don't have many people to use, and I need to sharpen Jiang Tianhe's temperament. To be honest, I don't trust him to do it, whether it's guarding Qulin or entering Guangzhou. "

Zhuang Chu thought for a moment, then sighed: "It is indeed not prudent enough, you can only attack the fortress head-on, it is not suitable for these cautious jobs."

Su Beiqin has never talked much about sending troops and generals, so it was decided.Qin and Han suffered because they didn't know anything, so they were pushed to the front line and forced to memorize the map all afternoon. During the inspection, Su Beiqin almost couldn't even speak well, and asked Su Beiqin to comfort him for a while.

When Qin Han left, Su Beiqin sighed and said, "If you want to hone Jiang Tianhe's temperament, you can choose other opportunities. Why use such a big event as a whetstone?"

Wu Weiyang curled his lips, it was nothing to teach the public and private lessons, but he didn't say that, he just said: "Don't worry, I'm sure, it's not the first time that Qin Han boy has fought a war , although he has never led a soldier, but he is bold and cautious, and with more teaching, he may become a fierce general."

After all, without waiting for Su Beiqin to speak again, he sighed: "It's really troublesome to play tricks with that old guy Zhou Guangping at night."

Su Beiqin's expression returned to his indifference, and without even looking at him, he said, "Isn't it uncomfortable not to fight with real swords and guns? You just need to bluff."

Wu Weiyang squinted his eyes slightly, and said: "This is so boring, you can't even see the blood, and you have to try to cover it up..." The words were full of dissatisfaction.

Su Beiqin was startled, and finally looked up at the young general who was lazily sitting cross-legged behind the desk. Wu Weiyang looked indifferent, and was unconsciously stroking his silver spear with one hand. The murderous aura of a frontal fight slowly escaped from every movement of his, overwhelming Su Beiqin with a feeling of suffocation.

At no moment has he been more aware of what kind of person he wants to help.

After a while, he smiled slightly and said softly: "In the future, there will always be a time for you to have fun."

It was night, the sky was covered by dark clouds, and the stars and the moon were gone. In the pitch-black camp outside Guangzhou, the sound of war drums suddenly sounded. Standing up, he murmured, "Is this true?"

After four hours, the troops were far superior to the military forces, and the city of Guangzhou, whose walls were so strong that they could not be broken, collapsed from within. Zhou Guangcheng was bound in front of the city. This victory in the dark became the starting point for Wu Weiyang to set foot on the Central Plains again.
