Traveling through Chenghan Xiandi, fortunately I have a simulator

Chapter 158
After a night of raiding, Sui Gu and others arrived at Gaobai Mountain. Although the mountain road is rugged, it is also the fastest way to Shangjun City.

No one would have thought that there was an ambush here, at least Suigu couldn't have imagined it.

Just after Sui Gu and others entered the mountain road and walked not far, the big rocks behind rolled down from the mountain roads on both sides. As the stones piled up higher and higher, the mountain road was completely cut off.

At this moment, Sui Gu and the others were still rushing forward, but just as they were about to go out, Xu Rong led a group of people ahead to block the mountain road. Sui Gu saw at a glance that there were many people on the other side, but he couldn't judge the number.

"Withdraw, everyone follow me back." Sui Gu shouted loudly to his subordinates, and then began to change formations.

"Yes, General." The soldiers below shouted in unison, then turned their horses and began to head back.

Suigu and others don't know yet, the situation in the rear is not better than here, they may still have a way to survive in the charge now, after all, the 500-man cavalry team is the strongest combat force under Suigu's subordinates, at least it is better to save Suigu's life There is that possibility.

Xu Rong was not in a hurry to chase Suigu's army. In Xu Rong's plan, he divided his 7000 soldiers into two parts. One part was led by partial generals. A total of 7000 people guarded the city. He asked for only one to guard the city. That's fine, this goal is not too difficult. Gaonu City is not a big city, and [-] people are enough.

The other part of the soldiers was led by Xu Rong himself, a total of 3000 soldiers, of which 1000 were cavalry and the other 2000 were infantry. If there is another road, you need to detour a whole mountain. In Suigu's anxious state, there is a high probability that he will not choose a detour.

Of the 3000 men led by Xu Rong, [-] infantry were actually on the mountain, and only [-] cavalry were blocking Suigu and others down the mountain. But the loss will also be higher, which he does not want to see.

So the thousand cavalry led by Xu Rong was just a deterrent, the real purpose was to force Sui Gu and others back, only there was the place where Sui Gu and others died.

Sure enough, not long after Sui Gu and the others had retreated, they found that the retreat road was completely blocked by stones. At this moment, it would take a long time for them to clear these stones blocking the road.

Just when Sui Gu and others couldn't catch them, the arrows, rolling stones and logs on the mountain kept hitting his army. These people couldn't dodge in time, and most of them died under the rolling stones and arrows.

At this moment, Sui Gu didn't hesitate anymore, but grabbed the bridle and beat the horse vigorously with the whip, trying to get out of here as soon as possible. Fortunately, the quality of Sui Gu's horse was not bad, and he quickly escaped from the blocking of logs and rolling stones , only others were not so lucky.

Suigu's confidant, Yang Wen, died under the arrow. Less than 500 of the 100 cavalry escaped. Suigu saw that the remaining 100 people were less than [-] people. Now he has no idea what to do. .

"General, surrender." A personal guard drove forward and said.

"Yes, General, now we have nowhere to go. There are cavalry blocking the way in front, there are ambushes on the mountain, and there are big stones blocking the way behind. Even if I want to send the general out, I'm afraid I can't do it now." Another guard stepped forward and said.

"Okay, then surrender." Sui Gu said helplessly.

Sui Gu was actually unwilling to surrender. After all, even if the leaders of the Yellow Turbans chose to surrender, they would most likely die.

Xu Rong in the front waited for a long time for Sui Gu and the others to finally arrive. In his opinion, the ambushes on the mountain were enough to kill Sui Gu and the others. Even if they could escape, that would not be enough.

"We surrender." Sui Gu and others threw the weapons aside in front of Xu Rong, and then dismounted, expressing their ambush.

"Tie up all these people and take them back," Xu Rong ordered.

Next, Xu Rong ordered the ambush soldiers on the mountain to come down and clean up all the stones and logs along the road. After all, this road is very important, and they also need to take this road when they go to Shangjun City.

Outside Gaonu City, Suigu's army woke up early in the morning, only to find that the coach Suigu and some important generals in the army had run away first.

As the news spread in the army, the entire barracks became turbulent instantly. Although the generals at the bottom were trying their best to maintain order, they were also outcasts and soon joined the chaotic ranks.

Facing the lack of food left in the army, especially last night when Suigu and others took away a lot of food, the rest of Suigu's army began to compete with each other for the food.

The soldiers under Suigu's army were originally yellow turban bandits and bandits gathered from all over the place, and their camp was different from the beginning. If Suigu hadn't forcibly suppressed these low-level soldiers, internal conflicts would have exploded long ago.

Now without the suppression of Suigu and some important generals, coupled with the problem of food, the internal conflicts were finally torn apart completely, and Suigu's army immediately divided into several camps and began to fight each other.

No outsiders participated in this fight. The guards on Gaonu City stared closely at the city wall. Anyone who tried to attack the city was shot and killed, and no one was left behind. In the distance, Huangfusong's cavalry was also quietly Looking at this fight, anyone who tried to harass the cavalry was killed, leaving no one behind.

Whether it was Huangfusong's cavalry or Xu Rong's guarding soldiers, they were all quietly enjoying the show, and no one went up to persuade them to fight or surrender.

More than 3 soldiers have already gone crazy. In just one morning, nearly 1 people died. As for the remaining 2 people, some wanted to surrender Gaonu City, but unfortunately they were all shot by arrows. Gone, and some gave up the fight directly and chose to escape.

Of course, some people hope to become the second Suigu and reorganize the team. Unfortunately, Suigu has already taken away some important generals, and the remaining generals do not have the appeal and organizational ability at all.

In just a day or so, the team of more than 3 people completely disintegrated. Except for those who died in the battle, most of the others still chose to find a shelter and continue to be the Yellow Turban Thieves. became refugees.

At this time, Xu Rong also returned to Gaonu City, and passed the news of Suigu's surrender to Huangfusong. Huangfusong left 2000 people to defend Diaoyin County, and the remaining 8000 people all arrived in Gaonu City and Xu Rong's army. confluence.

In the meeting hall of Gaonu City, Huangfusong sat in the middle, Xu Rong sat on the side, while Suigu had his hands tied and was held down by two guards to kneel on the ground.

"Tell me, why do you want to attack Chang'an all of a sudden?" Huangfusong said with a serious face.

Not only Huangfusong, Xu Rong was also very curious about this matter. Logically speaking, with the strength of the Suigu army, he chose to attack Chang'an City and the imperial court when he was out of his mind.

"I said, can I be spared?" Sui Gu raised his head and asked.

"Impossible." Huangfusong scolded loudly.

"Then I won't say anything." Sui Gu lowered his head and stopped talking.

The atmosphere at the scene was a bit awkward. At this moment, Xu Rong walked to Huangfusong's side and said a few words to Huangfusong.

"Sui Gu, let me ask you, if you can cooperate with us to take down Shangjun City, we can guarantee that you will not die." Xu Rong said slowly, Huangfusong couldn't speak, so he had to come.

"Really?" Sui Gu raised his head and said joyfully, but his eyes were still on Huangfusong.

Huangfusong also nodded at the right time. If he didn't nod, Suigu couldn't have said anything, and it would be very troublesome to capture Shangjun City next time.

"Are you answering the question just now? If you want to survive, just say it honestly." Xu Rong scolded loudly.

"General, let me tell you. Ten days ago, the Patriarch of the Wang Family in Hedong County came looking for me." Sui Gu told all about the Patriarch of the Wang Family looking for him in one breath. For people of origin, it is useless.

After hearing Sui Gu's words, Huangfusong's face darkened, he could never have imagined that this matter had something to do with the Hedong Hao family.

Although Huangfu Song was also from a noble family, he was more loyal to the imperial court, besides, the affairs of Hedong County had nothing to do with him, Zhu Jun was doing it anyway.

"This group of people actually did such a thing. I think they want to rebel." Huangfusong slapped the table hard and stood up. The loud voice made Suigu a little scared.

"General, please be safe and don't be impatient. Don't deal with this matter for the time being. After taking down Shangjun City, I will hand him over to the imperial court for another plan." Xu Rong said on the side.

Xu Rong was not that angry about this matter. Anyway, as an outsider, he was neither aristocratic nor wealthy, so he really didn't have much feeling for this kind of matter.

Huangfusong just sat down, and then stopped dealing with this matter.

Afterwards, Huangfusong let the two guards leave the conference hall for the time being, and the three of them were going to discuss the matter of attacking Shangjun City.

According to Sui Gu's disclosure, there are still about [-] soldiers in Shangjun City. If they attack forcefully, the imperial army may also take it, but it is more likely to attract rescue troops from other cities. accept.

Therefore, a strong attack is definitely not advisable, and only by outsmarting can reduce losses.

After discussing the relevant battle plan, the two guards returned to the conference hall again and took Sui Gu down. In order to prevent Sui Gu from escaping, the ropes in his hands will not be untied for the time being, and the guards around him are also Huangfusong. personal guard.

"General, is Sui Gu trustworthy?" Xu Rong asked

"It's unbelievable, but he is afraid of death, and this is enough for him to work for us." Huangfusong said confidently.

The next day, Huangfusong sent a secret letter back to the imperial court, in which he wrote down all the things Sui Gu said, but Sui Gu can't take it back for the time being, so I hope His Majesty will not deal with Hedong County for the time being. Supporting wealthy family.

After sending the secret letter, Huangfusong left more than a thousand people in the city to guard the city, and then he and Xu Rong led the remaining [-] people on the way to Shangjun City.

On the way from Gaonu City to Shangjun City, there are actually some small towns, but these small towns have no soldiers at all, and they are not important. Of course, Huangfu Song didn't bother with these small towns, his goal was only the big city of Shangjun City.

However, the march of 6000 people was indeed much slower. Like when Suigu fled before, it took only one night to reach Gaobai Mountain, but now it took two days to reach Gaobai Mountain.

Passing here again, Sui Gu's mood changed, but he didn't express it.

After another five days, Huangfusong's army finally arrived at a place about fifty miles away from Shangjun, and stationed there.

The guard of Shangjun City was also a subordinate of Suigu before, but since he heard that Suigu was defeated, his inner ambitions have swelled a little, and he wished that Suigu would die in the chaos of war.

However, most of the soldiers in the city were from Suigu, so the guards didn't dare to make decisions on their own, they could only continue to wait here for Suigu's return.

Just when the guard thought that Sui Gu was dead, Sui Gu appeared at the city of Shangjun with 500 cavalry.

"I am your general, Sui Gu, quickly open the door for me." Sui Gu shouted loudly towards the city wall.

"General, is it really you?" A guard on the city wall shouted.

"Nonsense, I can't see clearly, right? Hurry up and let the captain of the city gate come out. My troops and I are going to enter the city." Sui Gu continued to shout loudly.

After hearing this, the city wall guards had no choice but to go down and invite the captain of the city gate to come up to make decisions. He had no right to open and close the city gate.

Soon, the city gate captain came to the city wall, and he also recognized Sui Gu, but he didn't know any of the 500 guards around Sui Gu.

The so-called 500 guards are actually Xu Rong's subordinates, and they have only one task. As long as Suigu talks nonsense, these people will kill Suigu on the spot. After all, this is Suigu's territory, and problems are prone to occur.

Sui Gu is actually in a dilemma, the captain of the city gate is his man, he can order the captain of the city gate to shoot and kill the people here, but he himself cannot escape death, after all, the people here belong to Xu Rong underlings.

"Don't be in a daze, hurry up and open the door for me." Sui Gu thought for a long time, but he still didn't dare to bet, after all, his life was more important.

Although the captain of the city gate felt suspicious, Sui Gu had already said so himself, so he could only ask his subordinates to open the city gate.

After cheating to open the city gate, Xu Rong's subordinates directly entered the city, and then Huangfusong, Xu Rong and others in the distance also saw the situation, and directly directed the soldiers to charge forward.

After all 500 people entered the city, Xu Rong's subordinates began to directly kill the defenders at the city gate. As for the city gate, they sent people to guard it firmly, and of course Suigu was also controlled by others.

It was only at this moment that the captain of the city gate realized that he had been deceived. Unfortunately, he could only command the guards at the gate, but these guards were no match for Xu Rong's subordinates at all.

After a while, the captain of the city gate died in the hands of Xu Rong's subordinates. As for the guards on the city wall, most of them had already chosen to escape. With these escaped guards, the news must have spread to the guards of Shangjun City soon. , It's a pity that the guard knows that there is no room for redemption at this time.
