Drunk King and Minister

There are still six days to go to Hushu. In order to obtain the priority fighter, the three armies have accelerated their pace.Han Zigao was later in Hou Andu and rode with him on horseback.

Han Zigao looked at Hou Andu from the corner of his eye, thinking about one thing.

According to Hou Andu, when he was young and poor, he married a wife, but unfortunately, his wife's life was unlucky. After giving birth to a daughter, his body has been weak and he died ten years ago.Since his wife died, Hou An has never married a wife.

From this point of view, there is only a ten-year-old girl in the female family members of Hou'an Dufu.Han Zigao couldn't help considering Su Ziyi and Hou An together.Since Hou Andu has not married for ten years, he is also a person with deep affection and righteousness, and he is nearly 20 years older than Su Ziyi, mature and reliable. More importantly, Hou An is a thousand households sealed by Chen Baxian, and he is stationed The Great Wall has meritorious service, although he is a bit reckless and narrow-minded, but he is not bad in courage and general ability. As long as nothing happens in his future career, he should not have a big problem.

For a general like Hou Andu who has been fighting abroad for many years, he cannot live without a mistress in his mansion, not to mention that in a few years, his young daughter should also discuss marriage, and even more needs a sequel.As for Su Ziyi's unrestrained nature, I'm afraid others will not be able to suppress her, so what to do if she gets into trouble.And Hou Andu's temperament is just able to suppress Su Ziyi.

Han Zigao had other considerations. Although he didn't get along much with Hou An, this person did have some flaws that cannot be ignored, but one thing Han Zigao was sure of - Hou An was a bloody man, and he would never treat him badly. wife.So even if Su Ziyi got into some trouble, Hou An would never punish her severely.Another very important point is that a person like Hou Andu will never be a drunk and gentle man, and spoiling his concubine and killing his wife will never happen to him.

If you take the red line of these two people...

Han Zigao secretly made up his mind, this time he went out together to consider Hou Andu's personality, so he must find a good husband for Suziyi.

The army hurried for four and a half days, completing the journey that should have taken six days.

When Hou An was almost outside Hushu City, there was no sign of ordering the army to stop.

"General Hou is going to enter the city?" Han Zigao's heart jumped, and a bold idea popped up in his mind.

"Why don't you go to the city?" Hou An cast a strange glance at Han Zigao.

Han Zigao cupped his hands and said, "Zigao has the courage to ask the general to station ten miles outside Hushu City."

Hou An was stunned for a moment: "How do you say that?"

"Please enter the urn." Han Zigao looked into the distance, with a meaningful smile on the corner of his mouth.

Hou An understood what Han Zigao meant, but he didn't quite agree.

"We only have 5000 soldiers and horses, so we can't handle that much. It's better not to be greedy." Han Zigao's intention was to wait for Liu Damo and others to enter the villa, and then take them down in one fell swoop.Hou An didn't think it was a wise move.The Northern Qi reinforcements would never be less than [-] people, not to mention ships and horses. With the [-] men and horses in his and Han Zi's hands, it is impossible to take them all down.

Of course Han Zigao knew that Hou An was worried.

He smiled slightly: "General, please listen to Zi Gao's words. The reason why Liu Damo and others knelt down to Northern Qi was because they were worried that they would lose their chance to stand up under the hands of Lord Shang Shu. They would not be loyal to Northern Qi. Similarly, Northern Qi They will never trust them wholeheartedly. If we confront them head-on, they will never fight hard for the north, and it is definitely not impossible to win in one fell swoop."

Hou An listened and thought about it.

"That's true, but the rabbit bites people when it's in a hurry. If we insist on besieging, how can you ensure that they won't fight together?!"

Han Zigao lightly pulled the reins: "Who said we must strangle them..."

"You mean..." Hou An thought for a moment and understood what Han Zigao meant.

Han Zigao nodded lightly, affirming Hou An's unspoken thoughts.

"It's also possible, but why do you want to be stationed ten miles outside the city?" Hou An frowned, thinking of this.

Han Zigao steered his horse and took two steps, approached Hou Andu, and whispered a few words in his ear.

Hou Andu's brows gradually relaxed, he laughed twice, and patted Han Zigao's shoulder twice with his big palm: "Good boy! No wonder the general thinks highly of you!"

The general that Hou Andu was referring to was undoubtedly Chen Qian.

Han Zigao's face froze for a moment, but soon returned to normal, and Hou An didn't notice it at all.

ten days later.

Zhai Zichong, governor of Anzhou, Liu Shirong, governor of Chuzhou, and Liu Damo, governor of Huaizhou, led the army to Hushu.

They originally wanted to cross the river north from Hushu to reinforce the Northern Qi Dynasty and send food for the horses, but they were prepared to prevent Chen Baxian from sending people to stop them.

It's just that they didn't expect that Hu Shu would become their eternal nightmare.

On February [-], the second year of Shaotai, Liu Damo and others arrived outside Hushu City.

On February 1000th, Hushu City was opened, and Liu Damo's army stationed in Hushu for a short rest.At the same time, more than [-] ships carrying grain are going down the Yangtze River and will soon arrive at Hushu, and [-] horses are also coming from Chu, An, and Huai. arrival.

Liu Damo was stationed in Hushu, and Liu Shirong and Zhai Zichong crossed the river to meet him. They only waited for all the supplies to cross the river, and Liu Damo would meet after leading the army.

On February [-]th, three hundred ships had already crossed the Yangtze River with provisions and two hundred horses.

On the night of February [-]th, in the dark night, a huge fire suddenly broke out in the sky, and the fire spread rapidly, and the boats on the river were burned like dry grass.The sudden sergeant killed the coalition forces by surprise as if they had fallen from the sky.

That night, three hundred ships were damaged and ten thousand shi of food was lost.

Knowing that the attackers were sent by Chen Baxian, Liu Damo stepped up precautions in the early morning of the next day, accelerated the speed of crossing the river, and sent more than a thousand people to investigate the enemy's location.

But he suddenly found that he couldn't get out.

Hou An led his army to surround the four gates of Hushu, but at this time, there were only a few hundred of Liu Damo's men left in Hushu.

In fact, Liu Damo was not worried at the beginning, he couldn't get out of this Hushu, once the delivery of supplies stagnated, Liu Shirong and the two would come back to help, not to mention the fire that burned half the sky last night, the two of them must have guessed that it was the enemy The army is coming.And soon, the hundreds of cavalry behind will also arrive at Hushu, and then the three sides will attack Hou'andu, wouldn't it be a beautiful anti-kill.

So, just get through the days.

But when he stayed in Hushu City for two days but did not receive any news from the outside world, he finally panicked.

Why is it so peaceful, why is it like nothing happened?The material crossing the river has been stagnant for two days. Didn't anyone find out? !

When Liu Damo climbed onto the tower and stared at him, he saw a scene that he could never have imagined.

The boats that were stuck on the river yesterday are now heading to the other side of the river in an orderly manner!

Replacement as fake! ! !

Liu Damo's eyes went dark, and he passed out.

It turns out that Jiang's side is no longer Liu Shirong and Zhai Zichong!

This point, the people on the boats that were still coming down the river to Hushu didn't know, and neither did the cavalry and horses coming along the land! !

As for the people in Hushu City, they couldn't send any news, nor could they receive any news.

Because, the place where the horses and boats were handed over was changed ten miles away from Hushu City.

It's not that Liu Damo didn't think about rushing out, but the few hundred people under his command are simply hitting a stone with a pebble, not to mention, he took refuge in Beiqi for the sake of power and wealth in the future, could it be possible to put his life here? ! ! !

On February [-], a more serious problem hit.

Hushu City has no water.

February 23.

Outside Hushu City, Liu Shirong's head hangs high.

The head hung outside for three whole days, but Hou Andu, who was surrounded outside, didn't make any move.

On February 25, Hushu was besieged for ten days.

"You can fight, I'm so anxious to wait for you!" Hou Andu stared at the soldier who sent Han Zigao's message.

"The deputy general said, we can fight!"

Hou Andu slapped his legs and roared, and gave the three armies the order to attack the city.

On February 26, Hushu City was destroyed, but it was a pity that Liu Dharma escaped in the chaos.

In this battle, thousands of horses were captured, [-] enemy ships were burned, [-] ships were captured, and food was [-] shi.

Wu Xingcheng.

"...a thousand horses, [-] shi of food, a total of [-] troops, and..."

In the brightly lit conference hall, Chen Qian sat on the chair in the middle and listened to the good news from Hu Shu, a smile gradually appeared on the corner of her mouth.

Han Zigao, you really did not disappoint me!

Liu Cheng, who was at the bottom, couldn't help but sighed a few times: "The younger generation is awesome, who can cut off the mother river of Hushu and drain it! He can also exchange dragons for phoenixes without arrogance or impetuosity!"

Chen Qian listened, noncommittal.

In fact, what surprised Chen Qian even more was Han Zigao's persuasion of six thousand soldiers.

Even he didn't have the confidence to make them surrender.

Chen Qian faintly felt that the young man who had always been silent and seldom spoke was about to spread his wings and fly high.
