Chapter 144: Spicy
As the reinforcements of Chengde arrived, Wang Feng was no longer in a hurry to launch an attack. With a sufficient number of troops, Shenzhou was able to gain a foothold by relying on high walls and deep buildings. Wang Feng did not want to do a loss-making business.
It was not until the third day that Shi Yi from Hejian Prefecture finally led his troops to Shenzhou.
The two armies met at the city of Shenzhou, but neither Shi Yi nor Wang Feng were happy.
Wang Feng stared at the head of Li Che, who was made lifelike in the wooden box on the table. His eyes beads seemed to be about to pop out of his eye sockets, and his hands on the table were trembling slightly. After a while, he murmured: "What should I do now? Li Che is Li Anguo's only son, and there is no room for a turnaround now, so he must be dead."
Shi Yi sighed indescribably: "That's true. He and Chengde are still alive. Li Anguo is over fifty years old this year, and he knows the destiny of heaven at fifty years old. I'm afraid he will never give birth to a son again. Do you think he can't be anxious? It's better than God's destiny after all."
"Is Henghai killing Li Che?" Wang Feng suddenly said sternly.
"I don't know." Shi Yi shook his head and said, "This possibility of course exists."
"It must be Zhu Shou." Wang Feng stood up and circled in the room like a trapped beast: "Zhu Shou knew very well that if we easily took Cheng De, it would be his turn next, so he would kill Li Che and push us and Cheng De to the point of a death battle. Now as he wished, Li Anguo was going to fight with us, and he was just taking advantage of it. Isn't Zhu Bin already advancing to Yizhou? General Shi, think about it, we were blocked by Li Anguo in Shenzhou, Yizhou was empty, and it won't take long for Zhenzhou to arrive."
He paused for a moment and looked at Shi Yi and said, "At that time, we will have a hard time, sweat and blood, and we will not get anything. Zhu Shou can take Yizhou without any effort, or even Zhenzhou."
Shi Yi was silent for a moment: "It's useless to say these things now. No matter what Henghai planned, he is now our helper. As long as the general defeats Gao Pian from Hedong, he is not afraid of Zhu Shou sticking it out, then what he takes will be the general's. If he dares to have any other ideas at that time, he will just beat him up again."
"General Shi, if Zhu Shou takes over Yizhou and Zhenzhou, his strength will soar. Chengde is rich and has a large population. Will Zhu Shou, who has Chengde, still bow to the general?"
Shi Yi stood up suddenly and sneered: "Since you know that, then we should work together to take over Shenzhou at any cost and defeat Cheng German army. Since Li Che has been killed, then everything will be fine if you kill Li Anguo again. Wang Dashui, you can sit in the city of Shenzhou for a few days and watch Li Anguo rectify the army in the city, which is a big mistake."
Wang Feng spread his hands: "It's not that I haven't fought, but I don't have enough strength."
Shi Yi smiled: "Even if the reinforcements from Shenzhou City are coming to Yizhou, the strength in your hands is probably not as good as that of Marshal Wang. You are not weak, you are half-hearted, just look forward to it! You want to eat fruits and preserve your strength."
After Shi Yi's words revealed the little thoughts in his heart, Wang Feng couldn't help but become angry and slapped the table: "Shi Yi, I'm afraid it's not your turn to teach me a lesson, right?"
Shi Yi laughed: "Of course, Mr. Wang has a noble status. Shi is indeed not qualified to teach you a lesson. It can only be regarded as an admonition. Marshal Wang, think about it carefully. If we don't take down Shenzhou as soon as possible and kill Li Anguo, what are the benefits of him when he comes back? Li Anmin from Zhaozhou is afraid that he is already gathering soldiers and will kill your Zhenwu next."
Wang Feng's face changed drastically. All his main forces were sent to Shenzhou. If Li Anmin did not come to rescue Shenzhou but rushed to Zhenwu directly, he would steal the chicken without losing the rice.
Seeing that Wang Feng had changed color, Shi Yi continued: "If we can't take Shenzhou, I'm so great to retreat to Yingzhou to defend. At that time, Li Anguo's counterattack would be counted. I'm afraid that the first one would never come to me, but would ask you to settle the score! At that time, the general was fighting with Gao Pian from Hedong, and I'm afraid he wouldn't care about you. Can you resist Chengde's offensive?"
Wang Feng's face changed again and again.
Shi Yi took advantage of the situation to make a fool of himself.
"Mr. Wang, you have no way out now. Apart from moving forward bravely and helping us Marshal achieve success, there is no other way. What is the loss of troops? Even if you lose all your troops, as long as the Marshal achieves his achievements, are you still afraid that there will be no territory and no people?"
Wang Feng lowered his head and said nothing.
"Mr. Wang, you are very clear about our Marshal's ambition, and you are also the first person to support our Marshal. There are dozens of military governors of all sizes in the world, even if they are a horse bone in Qianjin City, your Marshal Wang's future situation will never be limited to a place like Zhenwu, right?"
Wang Feng gasped heavily, and after a while, he suddenly punched the table with a bang, and turned around and walked out.
"Where is Marshal Wang going?" Shi Yi asked.
"Gather troops and attack Shenzhou City." Wang Feng suddenly turned around, stared at Shi Yi with a twisted face, and gritted his teeth and said, "You are right. Since I have already boarded Zhang Zhongwu's ship, I can no longer get off. Now there is no way to go except one road to the dark."
Shi Yi laughed: "Marrior Wang, this is what it looks like to do big things. But now, we can still talk to them first."
Wang Feng looked at the head in the box on the table: "Li Che's head is here, what else can I talk about?"
"There is nothing to talk about with Li Anguo, but I can still talk about Cao Xin and Wang Wenshu!" Shi Yi smiled and said, "Li Che is indeed dead, but Wang Mingren and Li Bo are still in my hands."
Wang Feng's eyes lit up, but then they dimmed: "Wang Mingren is not Cao Xin's son, and he will not betray Li Anguo."
"It doesn't matter whether they betray it or not. It's good to let them suspect it themselves!" Shi Yi smiled and said, "As long as Wang Mingren is in our hands, they will not be relieved if Cao Xin is right, but the main force in the city is Cao Xin's people now. If there are dates or not, let's hit him first, then tell me, do you think Wang Dashuai?"
"It's good to try." Wang Feng thought for a moment, "I might as well hang Li Che's head out, so that there will be a stronger contrast and a greater stimulation to the city. Cheng De couldn't even save their young master, and it seems that the blow to morale will be quite heavy."
"The heroes' views are similar!" Shi Yi smiled: "It's not a hurry today. As soon as our army arrived, we should rest for a day, take full advantage of our spirits, and move again tomorrow. At that time, we are ready to attack the city. Once there is a commotion and uneasiness in the city, we will strike while the iron is hot, and when they are restless, they will attack the city in large numbers and take down the city of Shenzhou in one fell swoop."
"Just as General Shi said." Wang Feng nodded repeatedly.
In Shenzhou City, there was still the small restaurant, Hu Shier and Bao Hui, and the food on the table was far less abundant than when they first met. There was no wine. They just put a few plates of vegetarian food and a few steamed buns. Even the waiter in the restaurant turned into an old man with white hair, but their mood was very different.
When we first met, we were still sneaking, for fear that others would see the truth. But this time, the two of us were sitting openly, Hu Shier was wearing a helmet and armor, and wherever we sat on the big golden sword, and the horizontal sword was prickly placed on the table.
Bao Hui looked at Hu Shier with emotion and thought that the man in front of him was probably the fastest promoted guy in the Cheng German army in history. From an unknown and jealous spy detective, he turned into a song that was a soldier of the German army, controlling a thousand people in a blink of an eye.
After receiving Cao Xin back to the city, the five hundred new soldiers commanded by Hu Shier suffered very little losses. He, the temporary chief of Qu, also successfully became a regular. The five hundred soldiers originally assigned to him were also assigned to him for command. The one who announced the appointment was Du Teng, the Shenzhou non-man commander. Du Teng even invited Hu Shier to have a big drink and introduced him to many civil servants and generals in Shenzhou. The intention of attracting closeness was obvious.
Du Teng was finally Suning's confidant general. Now Suning's troops have almost been lost, and even he has been under house arrest. Du Teng is now planning to recruit more powerful generals for Suning. Young generals like Hu Buer, who have no foundation background, are the targets Du Teng strives for.
What's more, in Du Teng's opinion, Hu Shier was simple and had no scheming. As long as he showed his kindness, he should be able to win it easily. The facts were indeed not as expected. Without much effort, Hu Shier had already patted his chest and made a statement, and he would follow Du Teng in the future.
Bao Hui drank the tea in the cup in front of her in one gulp, and even put the tea foam in her mouth and chewed it hard. It turns out that only those who dare to think and do can have a chance to make a name for themselves. People like him are only worthy of being a small official who transports food and grass in this life.
"Congratulations to Captain Hu." Looking at Hu Shier, Bao Hui was filled with emotion. Du Teng didn't know the details of this person, but he knew clearly. Du Teng was so arrogant that he was still complacent now.
However, Hu Shier was promoted so quickly, thinking that even if Suning came out again in the future, with a sinister guy like Li Ze lying beside him, how good would the fate be?
This made him more determined to follow Hu Shier in the future.
"My joy is just your joy! I will protect you from now on. I can handle the matters in Shenzhou by myself. In the future, you will have to worry more when you are on the other end of Yizhou." Hu Shier said with a smile.
"My elder brother is afraid I won't be back." Bao Hui sighed, "As for my identity, I'm afraid I'm useless to you in the future."
Hu Shier rolled his eyes, "Are you planning to go to your sister-in-law's house to receive it after returning to Yizhou after the war?"
Bao Hui's face turned red and she stumbled for a few words, but she did not refute.
