Chapter 564: One to one tie
After the sun rises from the east.
The three thousand cavalry led by Zuo Yun's lieutenants have already reached behind the city wall and controlled the huge city gate.
Two thousand cavalry led by Zuo Yun were blocking the city outside. Gu Chan was caught in an unfavorable situation of being attacked from both front and rear, which directly showed that she had completely lost this second offensive and defensive battle.
“Damn it! You pretended to be a pig to eat the tiger for me, I’m really pissed off.”
Looking at Zuo Yun with a smirk on his face below, Gu Chan stood on the top of the city and cursed angrily.
In the past, she used this trick to deal with others, but now, it is being used by others to deal with her. How can she not be angry if you make her?
But she was angry, and she still admired Zuo Yun in her heart.
From midnight last night to now, Zuo Yun has been acting, making everyone happy and attracting everyone's attention. This directly proves that the eldest son of the Zuo family is by no means what he seems on the surface. He looks so careless, but in fact he is very smart and good at taking advantage of others' mentality of underestimating the enemy.
Zuo Yun looked up at Gu Chan and said, "Lord, do I win this second offensive and defensive battle?"
"Even if you win, let's draw one to one. You can take your people back! Tell your father that if he can still beat me in the last game tomorrow, then I will hand over the Lord's Dragon Seal myself and Leave the Jiangnan area to him," Gu Chan said calmly, standing with her hands behind her hands.
"Okay! Lord, I'll take my leave." Zuo Yun said with clasped fists and a salute.
After saying that, he laughed loudly, rode on his war horse, and led the general away in a swaggering manner.
From beginning to end, he never showed any hostility towards Gu Chan, and at this time, Gu Chan and others got to know him again.
After Zuo Yun and others left, Gu Chan came down from the top of the city.
Xu Ziguang stepped forward in embarrassment and said, "I'm sorry, Lord, I have failed to live up to your expectations of me."
"It's okay, it's normal that you can't beat such an opponent, and not only did he last night He tricked you and deceived everyone in Jiangnan City. Even I couldn't see through his trick in time, so I won't blame you." Gu Chan said nonchalantly.
"Lord, I really can't figure it out. These are more than 3,000 soldiers and horses! How did they avoid such tightly guarded officials in the city and enter the city quietly." Xu Ziguang said in confusion.
Last night Zuo Yun led more than 2,000 cavalry to attract their attention outside the city. Naturally, those lieutenants led more than 3,000 cavalry to avoid the tight defense in the city and sneak in quietly. In the city.
But the question is, how did so many people do this? What's more, the officers patrolling the city last night did not find any trace of the cavalry sneaking into the city.
This is really puzzling.
Gu Chan sighed and said, "The clothes of those lieutenants and the more than 3,000 soldiers are all wet. Isn't it obvious? They came here at night along the waterway. Jiangnan University On the other side of the camp, our people's defense was relatively weak, and we didn't expect that they would dare to attack Nan Xing wildly. The general snuck in under his nose, which is why this situation happened."
"So that's it! Then they are really amazing. It was so cold last night, and they were able to get out of the Jiangnan River. I was convinced when I came here at night," Xu Ziguang said with relief.
"This is because the people leading the troops are different, and the results are also different. If Zuo Yun had been the leader in the first offensive and defensive battle yesterday, their side would not have been defeated so miserably." Gu An overview of Changan.
It is said that women are not suitable for fighting. As a woman, she understands this very well. The most important thing is that during the battle in Zhongyuan City, she mistakenly appointed Xue Lihua as the commander, which caused huge disasters. casualties.
So to this day, whenever she goes to the battlefield, she will not let any of her women lead the troops. Zuo Wangfeng obviously had not suffered a loss in this matter, otherwise he would not have let Shuiyue lead the troops in the first offensive and defensive battle yesterday.
Xu Ziguang also nodded silently and said solemnly, "Your Lordship is right. General Zuo, the son of General Zuo, looks like a fool on the surface, but in fact he is very capable. It seems that in tomorrow's last offensive and defensive battle, if the father and son join forces, If so, I'm afraid it will be a tough nut for us."
"Okay, don't think about it so much. Then you can take everyone to clean up, and then continue to guard the city. We will deal with it tomorrow. Zuo Wangfeng, you don’t need to take action, I will take action myself,” Gu Chan waved.
Xu Ziguang hurriedly agreed, and quickly followed her instructions, leading the soldiers to collect the arrows outside the city.
Gu Chan took Yuan Jie back to the Lord's Mansion and began to secretly prepare for the final offensive and defensive battle with Zuo Wangfeng tomorrow.
At noon.
Zuo Yun finally led five thousand cavalry and returned safely to the Dujiang Town camp.
Not long after he entered the camp, Shui Yue limped up to him with a pale face and said, "Thank you for helping me last night. I owe you a favor. In the future, you If there is anything you need my help with, as long as I can do it , Just say it.”
“Young man, you are in great shape! You suffered dozens of blows last night and you can walk today. Come here and take a look. Is your butt still bleeding?" Zuo Yun teased with a smirk.
Shuiyue immediately blushed, glared at him and cursed, "You are frivolous and shameless. I shouldn't have come to you."
"Oh! You woman, you can fall out of love faster than flipping through a book." Ah! I care about you, okay?" Zuo Yun said angrily.
Shui Yue rolled her eyes at him, turned around angrily and limped away.
"Hahaha..."
Zuo Yun looked at her weak back and laughed happily.
Shuiyue had a stiff face. Although she looked angry on the surface, she felt warm in her heart. As for why she felt this way, at this moment, she herself couldn't explain the reason.
After half a stick of incense.
Zuo Yun led several lieutenants to the big tent.
Seeing that they had returned safely and victoriously, Zuo Wangfeng happily ordered his soldiers to roast a whole sheep and bring it in, and also brought in a jar of fragrant rice wine as a reward.
Zuo Yun squatted by the fire, cutting the roasted mutton with a knife and putting it into his mouth, and said to his father without looking back, "Dad, why don't you go to the Lord's Mansion tonight? Let’s have a good chat with Gu Chan! I don’t think you need to fight him in the final offensive and defensive battle tomorrow.”
"What do you mean by this?" Zuo Wangfeng didn't explain.
"My point is very simple. I'm afraid you really won't be able to beat him tomorrow." Zuo Yunyun said lightly.
As soon as he said these words, the air in the tent instantly solidified, and several lieutenants sat there, all too frightened to say a word.
Zuo Wangfeng sat in the first place, his face gloomy to the extreme.
