Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    On the second night, Lin Shihong quietly mobilized 20,000 troops to secretly approach the north gate of Huaining City and lurk.

    At the third watch, I suddenly heard loud shouts of killing from the north gate, and the lights above the city were dazzling.  Then the city gate opened and the suspension bridge fell to the ground with a "bang".

    Seeing that Zhou opened the door as promised, Lin Shihong prepared to enter the city in person.

    At this time, General Liao Ling stepped forward to persuade: "The emperor will wait outside the city for a moment, and let someone enter the city first to find out what's going on."

    Lin Shihong then said: "If I don't go there personally, who will go forward!" He wanted to lead the troops directly in.

    It was Wang Rong who advised: "On the battlefield, swords and guns have no eyes, and the emperor's body is worth thousands of gold. You can't take risks at will. If you just stay outside the city and control the city gate, you will be invincible. Why bother to enter the city again and take risks?"  "

    The other generals also made suggestions one after another. Lin Shihong could not resist the good intentions of everyone, so he agreed to the matter and ordered Liao Ling to be the chief general and lead 5,000 men and horses as the vanguard to enter the city.

    Liao Ling drove his troops to enter the city first.

    After entering the city gate, they saw Sui troops fighting with others. When they saw them entering the city, they immediately fled.

    At this time, Liao Ling had no doubts at all and ordered the entire army to enter the city and annihilate the defenders in the city. At the same time, he ordered people to scale the city wall and seize the city head.

    Lin Shihong outside the city was overjoyed when he saw the report sent back by Liao Ling, and hurriedly drove his troops into the city.

    &#24378&#29306&#32&#122&#111&#110&#103&#121&#105&#119&#120&#46&#99&#111&#109&#32&#35835&#29306&#12290It¡¯s just that the kings and ministers of Chu State don¡¯t know yet.  A large number of Sui troops were lurking.

    It turns out that after the Sui army defeated the Chu army that day, although they did not take the opportunity to defeat Lin Shihong, a big battle also severely damaged Lin Shihong's vitality, and the Chu army no longer had the ability to break the city.

    Everyone was happy, guessing that the Chu army would retreat, and the siege of Huaining City should be solved.

    However, Huang Weilie was not happy.

    From the perspective of tactics and results, he defended Huaining City with a partial force and defeated the Chu army, which was a great joy.  But from a strategic perspective, this may not be a happy thing.

    Because there were insufficient defenders in the city, once the Chu army retreated, the Sui army would not be able to expand its victory.

    Although Lin Shihong was defeated today, his strength still remains.  Once Lin Shihong withdrew to Yuzhang, he still had more than 100,000 troops in hand. In addition, the territory was vast, and it would be really troublesome for the Sui army to attack one county after another.

    ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? And there is a Xiao Mian next to the counties in Jiangzhou who is eyeing him eagerly.

    Not to mention that Xiao Liang may come forward to snatch the victory, but if the two families unite, the war will be even more difficult to fight.

    It is not impossible for the Sui army to dominate and the other forces to unite to fight.

    Therefore, Huang Weilie hoped to contain Lin Shihong in Huaining City and wait for the main force of his brother to arrive.  When the time comes, they will defeat Lin Shihong's main force at Huaining City, and then use the enemy's power to march south to Jiangzhou counties. They will surely be invincible.

    "But it's not easy to contain Lin Shihong. Lin Shihong was defeated so miserably, how could he not escape?"

    At this time, Li Sui'en suggested using a false surrender strategy. They had relied on false surrender to delay the Chu army's attack on the city for several days.

    But Lin Shihong definitely didn't believe them when they pretended to surrender, so Li Sui'en recommended the Zhou family in the city.

    Zhou He is indeed the younger brother of Zhou Ren, the head of the Zhou family. He is a truly rich boy, so Lin Shihong can't see any flaws in Zhou He.

    However, as Lin Shihong considered, no matter whether Zhou He's false surrender succeeds or fails, it will lead to death or life.

    The reason why Zhou He was willing to do this is because Huang Weilie agreed and arranged for his son Zhou Linchuan to be his brother Huang Weiyang's attendant.

    Zhou He was willing to trade his own life for the dignity of the Zhou family.

    The Zhou family is actually not from Tong'an North. Zhou He's grandfather is Zhou Di, the general of Nanchen Zhennan.  Later Zhou Di rebelled against Chen and was killed by Luo Ya, the prefect of Linchuan. The Zhou family was completely defeated and had to flee to Huaining in the north of the Yangtze River for refuge.

    Zhou He was determined to revitalize the Zhou family, but there was no chance. Therefore, the Zhou family was just a wealthy family, and they had no status no matter how much money they had.  Now that the opportunity has come, he would not hesitate to die.

    It must be said that the loyalty of the children of the aristocratic family to the family is really unparalleled by ordinary people.  Therefore, Lin Shihong was not unjust when he fell into the trap set by the Sui army.

    Originally, Huang Weilie had no intention of luring the Chu army into the city. He just hoped to delay the Chu army for a while in the name of dedicating the city.

    "It's a pity that in the end, Lin Shihong couldn't bear it anymore, and Huang Weilie had no choice but to resort to dangerous measures.  Otherwise, the big fish Lin Shihong will be decoupled.

    At this time, Huang Weilie led his team to lurk at the top of the city. He saw many Chu troops entering the city, and then they continued to come, and they also came towards the top of the city

    This time 75z*w*z*.com Zhang Si.  Huang Weilie knew that if he waited any longer, he would be discovered, so he ordered people to put up a flag and then dropped a huge piece of iron from the city gate.  This giant iron was built by Huang Weilie in advance. It weighed three to four thousand kilograms and almost completely collected all the iron tools in the city.

    This giant iron is shaped like a city gate, with a sharp bottom and a wide top.  Dozens of people carried it to the city wall, and used two heavy logs to weigh it down, causing it to fall heavily to the city gate, while the bottom was even deeper into the soil.

    At this time, dozens of jars of strong fire oil and a large amount of burnt wood were thrown down from the city gate, and a fire was lit in front of the city gate.

    Fire and giant iron blocked the city gates, isolating the troops inside and outside the city.

    At this time, Lin Shihong outside the city was shocked.

    Huang Weilie stood on the top of the city and shouted loudly: "Lin Shihong, my son, I am fully aware of the tricks of you and the Zhou family. Today, I will destroy you and others, and let you know what the power of heaven is."

    They also shouted from the top of the city: "Lin Shihong's clever plan is unparalleled. Stealing a chicken will end up losing a lot of rice!"

    Lin Shihong pointed at Huang Weilie, speechless, and almost choked to death.

    At this time, Zhou He on the side said loudly: "Listen to the defenders in the city. Lin Shihong's army is short of food and it is difficult to survive. The puppet Chu army is distracted. Once they retreat, they will attack from behind and they will be able to defeat the enemy."

    Lin Shihong and Wang Rong were dumbfounded. How dare you do this this week?

    Huang Weilie at the top of the city was also a little surprised. This was not included in the original plan.  Originally, Zhou He could still deal with Lin Shihong. After all, Huang Weilie helped Zhou He cover up and did not expose the Zhou family, so Zhou He might not die. But after Zhou He shouted these two sentences, the outcome was doomed.

    Lin Shihong didn¡¯t expect Zhou He to have such courage, so he quickly ordered people to capture him.

    Several people stepped forward to drag Zhou He and then hacked him to death.

    But although Zhou He died, he died contentedly and without worries.

    Zhou He certainly understood that he could have survived. After all, Huang Weilie also said that the Zhou family betrayed the Sui Dynasty, but he discovered it.

    But Zhou He also understood that the living Zhou He and the dead Zhou He were completely different things.  The former is a small merit, while the latter is a great righteousness.  Only when he dies in front of Huang Weilie can Huang Weilie remember his contribution to the greatest extent, and can the Zhou family be truly revived in the Great Sui Dynasty.

    Of course Zhou He did it.

    The Sui troops present looked at Zhou He with full respect. Everyone shared Zhou He's sentiments.

    Lin Shihong became angry and ordered the three armies to attack Huaining City, and must break the city to vent his hatred.

    Zhida z.com Zhixiao.  What happened today is truly a great shame and humiliation.

    But there was a raging fire outside the city, and there were iron gates blocking the way. Even if the Chu army outside the city had wings, they might not be able to enter the city.  Therefore, Lin Shihong could only vent his anger, and then listened to the cries of killing in the city and was helpless
