    Chapter 466: Yu Wenchun¡¯s Sorrow in Building the Sui Dynasty

    "What do you mean, sir?" Liang Shiyan asked hesitantly.  ¨^·ÉÖÐ%ÎÄ?^Íø

    Wei Xiaokuan said slowly: "I wonder if Mr. Liang has ever heard of such a story about hunters hunting. When a physically strong hunter finds his prey, he is not in a hurry to catch it. Instead, he stays behind and pursues it without letting go.  When the prey is given a breather, until the prey is physically and mentally exhausted and panics, the hunter will attack violently and kill with one strike."

    Having said this, Wei Xiaokuan remained silent. Liang Shiyan raised his eyebrows and said, "What do you mean, sir, that we are the prey now, and Gao Xing is the hunter?"

    "Apart from that, I really can't think of any other reason why I'm happy to do this." Wei Xiaokuan shook his head and sighed. It seemed that the cold wind was too strong, and his voice sounded a little distorted and ethereal.

    Liang Shiyan was silent for a moment and then asked: "If it is true as you said, how will your Excellency respond?"

    "Try to keep the formation intact and speed up the retreat. Since Gao Xing wants to be a hunter, then we will satisfy him and become a suitable prey." After saying that, Wei Xiaokuan raised his whip and slapped the horse hard on the buttocks, causing the horse to feel pain.  , rushed forward with a long hiss.

    Although Wei Xiaokuan's words were a bit confusing, Liang Shiyan understood his intention.  Now, only by playing the role of prey can they attract Hua Xing to pursue them with confidence. Only in this way can they attract the enemy's attention as much as possible and allow Yu Wenyong to retreat safely.

    "Extinguish half of the torches and speed up the advance!" After understanding Wei Xiaokuan's intention, Liang Shiyan no longer hesitated. He solemnly ordered the messengers around him and then rode after Wei Xiaokuan with his whip raised.

    ¡­¡­

    Ten miles west of Pingyang City, Gao Xing stood quietly on a hillside with a relatively wide view, looking far into the west.  There, there were dots of firelight faintly coming from there. Judging from their number, they were probably no less than 40,000.

    "Wei Xiaokuan, which way do you plan to let Yu Wenyong escape?" Gao Gao stood with his hands behind his hands, letting the cold wind rustle the cloak behind him, but his body remained as tall as a pine, unmoving.

    To despise your opponent is to be negligent of your own life, to be kind to your enemy is to be cruel to yourself.  This is the experience that Gaoxing has accumulated over more than ten years of life and death. Therefore, even if Yu Wenyong's 60,000 troops were annihilated in one battle, Gao Xing was not dazzled by victory.

    Gao Yanzong¡¯s lesson has only passed not long ago, so how can we get carried away when we are happy?  From beginning to end, he paid enough attention to Wei Xiaokuan, a veteran with great military achievements.

    If he was just guessing when he was happy at the beginning, now he is almost certain that something happened to Emperor Zhou Yuwen Yong. He may have become seriously ill, or he may have died.  However, Gao Gao believes that the former is more credible. If it is the latter, Wei Xiaokuan only needs to order the army to break out with all his strength. There is no need to flee in separate ways to confuse the enemy like now.

    If Yuwen Yong was still intact, the Zhou army would not be as passive as it is now, and would be at a disadvantage by the Qi army.

    "General, the Zhou army has discovered General Xiao's whereabouts, and now it has accelerated its pace! They seem to be in a panic, the torches are constantly extinguished, and the formation looks a bit scattered."

    Just as he was happily thinking about Wei Xiaokuan's true intention and Yu Wenyong's possible escape direction, the sound of Shasha's footsteps suddenly came from behind, but it was Yang Lihua in military uniform.  Now that she is on the battlefield, Yang Lihua no longer addresses Gao Xing as affectionately as usual, and the look on her face is also very serious and respectful.

    "Oh?" Gao Xing raised his eyebrows and said to himself while thinking: "If Zhou Jun is afraid, it is not impossible for them to speed up and escape. However, Wei Xiaokuan is a veteran general who has experienced hundreds of battles, and he will never run away timidly.  I¡¯m afraid there¡¯s some fraud involved!¡±

    "If one person holds two torches, 20,000 people will look like 40,000 people. If 40,000 people only hold 20,000 torches, it will look like there are only 20,000 people. The imaginary is real, and the real is imaginary." Happy Shake  Shaking his head, he then said: "Let Xiao Mohe slow down, be more vigilant, and send more scouts to investigate the surrounding situation!"

    "yes!"

    After Yang Lihua left, Gao Gao turned his attention to Pingyang City again.  Although Xing Xing's eyesight was amazing, under the dark night sky, he could only roughly make out the outline of Pingyang City.  As Zhou Jun left, Pingyang City looked increasingly desolate and empty, like a quietly dormant beast.

    Half an hour has passed. According to time calculation, Qin Qiong should have arrived at Pingyang City.  It's just that Pingyang City is still quiet now. Are my worries really unnecessary?

    ??Muttered to herself happily, staring in the direction of Pingyang City without blinking.

    Gao Gao had no clear news that there was an ambush in Pingyang City, but he still did not believe that Wei Xiaokuan retreated so calmly, and the Zhou army would never be willing to do so.  Regarding Qin Qiong's arrangements, he also?The arrangements were made out of caution for Wei Xiaokuan, and we were taking precautions to prevent problems before they happened, and we were careful not to make any big mistakes.

    At this moment, Pingyang City suddenly burst into flames, shouting loudly and shaking the sky. This huge movement not only attracted Gao Xing's attention, but the 20,000 soldiers resting in the valley on the leeward side also looked sideways and quickly became alert.

    ¡°All cavalry are coming with me!¡±

    When Pingyang City suddenly caught fire, Gao Gao's heart sank, and his body suddenly rose up like a big bird, sliding down the hillside. Before he finished speaking, Gao Gao's body fell on the back of the sweaty BMW with just a few flashes.  superior.

    "Drive!"

    Before he could sit firmly, he was so happy that he galloped towards Pingyang.  At this time, about five thousand cavalrymen in the valley also reacted. Everyone got on their horses as fast as possible and rushed towards Pingyang.

    ¡­¡­

    In the northwest of Northern Qi Dynasty, in Xifenzhou, in the governor's mansion.

    "Your Majesty, four days have passed, but there is still no news from the Holy One. Could it be that the rumors are true?"

    The speaker is Xin Shao, Duke of Liangcheng. He is middle-aged. Although his appearance is ordinary, his figure is very strong. His thick arms show that he has extraordinary physical strength.

    Sitting at the head of the meeting hall of the governor's office was a middle-aged man in his forties, wearing a gorgeous tight-fitting Hu suit. His body was slightly stout, his eye sockets were slightly deeper than ordinary people, and he looked a little more murderous.  Under the dim light, his face looked gloomy, and the gloomy aura emanating from his body made the air a little depressing.

    This person is the current head of Xifen Prefecture, Chen Wangyu Wenchun.  A few days ago, Yu Yi and Yuwen captured Xifenzhou with great force, and then led their troops southward. The military and political affairs of Xifenzhou were handed over to Chen Wang Yuwenchun.

    Although Chen Wang Yuwen is far less pure than Qi Wang Yuwenxian and Zhao Wang Yuwenxian, they have a high status and are much less talented than the two, but they are cautious and stick to one side. Especially since he is a Xianbei tribesman, Kong Wu  Powerful, quite heroic, and able to convince the armies.

    ¡°Didn¡¯t the spies and messengers sent out come back?¡± Yu Wenchun frowned and asked with a worried look on his face.

    Xin Shao, Duke of Liangcheng, shook his head and said: "We have sent out five groups of spies from the day before yesterday, but none of them have returned yet. I'm afraid they have been poisoned by the enemy."

    Hearing this, Yu Wenchun¡¯s face couldn¡¯t help but look a little uglier. Gululu took a big sip of tea, and he gasped and asked, ¡°How is the situation in the city?¡±

    Xin Shao shook his head and said: "Since yesterday, rumors have been spreading in the city, saying that I, the Great Zhou Dynasty, was defeated by Gao Changgong, King of the Sui Dynasty of Qi State, and suffered heavy losses. Now he has led the remaining army to withdraw to Xunzhou. The general sent people to arrest many people who spread rumors.  However, the power of rumors still cannot be stopped. Today, the people's sentiment in the city is fluctuating, and the soldiers are also a little scared. If things continue like this, things will be very bad. "

    Yu Wenchun gently rubbed his forehead, his face wrinkled like a bitter melon.  The so-called rumors may not be without reason. Although the rumors are not credible, the information contained in them makes Yu Wenchun feel very heavy.  I dare not say anything else, but in the battle of Jinyang, the Zhou army was definitely defeated, and the losses were not small, otherwise Xifenzhou would not have lost contact with Yuwen Yong for so long.

    "General Xin, please order the officers in the city to be alert. I always feel that something big is going to happen in the next few days, so it's better to be careful!" Yu Wenchun thought for a while and then said solemnly.

    Xin Shao agreed and was about to say something when he suddenly heard rapid footsteps outside the house. Then he saw a soldier burst into the door in panic, crawled to Yu Wenchun's feet, and said incoherently: "No, that's not good."  Well, your Majesty, something bad has happened! The enemy has attacked the city, there are many enemies!"

    "What did you say?" Yu Wenchun stood up suddenly, his expression changed drastically.  At this moment, there was a muffled "dong" sound, the ground trembled slightly, and Yu Wenchun swayed and fell suddenly on his seat.

    "Your Majesty, an enemy who came from nowhere suddenly appeared outside the city and began to attack the city without saying a word, catching the brothers by surprise!" The soldier became much calmer at this time and spoke much more fluently and clearly.

    ¡°Bang bang!¡±

    As the dull crosstalk continued to sound, and faint shouts of murder came from outside the house, Yu Wenchun knew what happened without asking any more.  Without bothering to question the soldier, Yu Wenchun greeted Xin Shao, grabbed the sword on the table and rushed out of the house.

    ¡°Whoosh!¡±

    "Your Majesty, be careful!"

    As soon as Yu Wenchun climbed up the city wall, there was a sharp sound of breaking through the air in his ears. He retracted his head reflexively, just in time to avoid a sharp arrow that was shot at his forehead.

    Looking at the arrow that drew a deep mark on the masonry of the city wall, Yu Wenchun couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat on his back.  It's easy to dodge an open gun, but hard to guard against a hidden arrow. If it weren't for the intuition he had developed over the years on the battlefield, he might have been killed just now.

      Then the fire at the top of the city, Yu Wenchun looked from a distance, and saw that there were 20,000 to 30,000 soldiers in red clothes inside and outside. Who else came if it wasn't the Qi army.  Looking at Qi Shuai's flag, he saw a big "Fu" character.

    Is it Fu Fu?

    Yu Wenchun guessed as follows.  As early as the Eastern Expedition, Yu Wenyong had investigated the more famous generals in the Qi army, and Fu Fu was among them.  But for some reason, he betrayed Lord Qi and disappeared into the sea, without any news.  Now when Yuwen Chunfu saw the general named Fu, he unconsciously thought of Fu Fu.

    Rain of locust stones and arrows.

    The catapults of the Qi army below the city kept roaring, and rocks the size of heads hit the city wall with huge force, hitting the bodies of Zhou's soldiers, causing a shrill scream.
