Chapter 72 Big Fish

 It was night, Fu Wei was leading a patrol along the Qionghai Sea, and suddenly he found a few small boats faintly visible on the Qionghai Sea, quietly going down the lake from the south of Qiongdu City, and he didn't know where they were going.

He was confused and immediately sent people to keep an eye on these ships. However, when the ships discovered his people, not only were they not afraid, but they rowed quickly in their direction.

Fu Wei ordered his men to be on guard with their swords and wait and see what would happen.

I saw small boats docking one after another, and hundreds of people stepped off the boats, all carrying large and small packages, but without weapons, as if they were moving.

The leader is a middle-aged barbarian who walks with a limp. He calls himself Lang Cen, the leader of the Mosuo tribe. He is an old friend of Langlu of the Yanniu tribe. He has come to surrender to the Han army and has important intelligence reports.

Fu Wei did not dare to make any arbitrary decisions, so he immediately sent someone to inform Zhou Mo and others of the news. He then personally escorted these people to the Chinese army's tent.

Zhou Mo was playing chess with his uncle Gelanglu when he heard Fu Wei's men report that Lang Cen, the leader of the Mosuo tribe, had come to surrender.

Lang Lu said: "This Lang Cen is an old acquaintance of mine, but he is cunning and absolutely untrustworthy. I think this must be a trick of the Qiongdu chiefs."

"I suggest you don't waste any more time with him and kill him directly."

Zhou Mo said, "Don't be impatient. Listen to what he says first, and then follow my eyes and act."

As soon as Lang Cen came in, he knelt down at the feet of Lang Lu and cried loudly: "Brother Lang Lu, I regret it! I regret that I deceived you and followed Hu Peng instead of following you Yan Niu!"

"That Fox Peng is really not a thing. He likes to eat fresh big fish and ordered me to fish for him in Qionghai. But these days, Qionghai is surrounded by Han troops. I only dare to fish along the north shore, but the water on the shore

They are all small fish, there are no big fish. I didn’t catch this big fish, so I got beaten when I went back.”

"Look, he beat me." As he said that, Lang Cen took off his pants, revealing the bloody wounds on his butt and thigh.

Zhou Mo looked at it and frowned. In order to eat the fish, he was really ruthless, and it was a bit eye-catching.

"He beat me like this and asked me to catch a big fish for him overnight. If I couldn't catch a big fish, I wouldn't be allowed to come back. I couldn't bear it anymore, so I took my tribe and ran away overnight."

"Brother Langlu, for the sake of the fact that we have known each other since childhood, please forgive me for my past mistakes, take pity on me and take me in."

Lang Cen burst into tears and cried really miserably. If he was acting, he would definitely be at the level of an actor.

There was a hint of boredom in Lang Lu's eyes, and he said calmly: "This is our General Zhou. If you have anything to say, just tell General Zhou."

Lang Cen knelt down in front of Zhou Mo again and cried: "General Zhou, please."

Zhou Mo asked: "You said you have important information? What is it?"

Seeing that Zhou Mo had taken the bait, Lang Cen felt that something was going on, so he added fuel to the fire and told everything he knew about the chiefs' strength, equipment, food and forage, defenses, unknown mountain roads outside the city, and even the conflicts between the chiefs.

Zhou Mo.

This time, most of what he said is true.

He came to work as an undercover agent to find out information, but first he leaked all the information about his family, which is also a talent.

Of course, his real idea is to please both sides and not offend anyone.

After all, who knows whether Qiongdu City can still be defended. If it really can't be defended, wouldn't it be great for him, an undercover agent, to turn over and rebel directly?

Zhou Mo didn't know if what he said was true, but they were all trivial matters that were insignificant to the overall situation, and he was too lazy to think about them.

He is brewing a plan in his mind.

For this plan, what Lang Cen said must be true.

So he said to Lang Lu sincerely: "Brother, I think what Lang Cen said is true."

Lang Lu said: "I think so too."

Zhou Mo said: "Lang Cen, take your people and return them to Lang Lu's tent. You have been injured in the past few days, and no other tasks will be assigned to you. Your information is very valuable, don't go too far, listen at any time

Just adjust it."

"Just talking about fishing makes me a little greedy. You happen to have a few boats and have nothing to do, so you can go back to Qionghai and continue fishing. I am kind-hearted, no matter whether you catch big or small fish

, I am very happy and will never hit you, don’t worry.”

Lang Cen looked happy and kowtowed repeatedly: "Thank you General for taking me in. Thank you General for your kindness. Lang Cen will definitely catch the biggest fish in Qionghai and present it to the General."

Lang Cen's joy was not fake. He was more overjoyed in his heart than he showed. He was afraid of being detained in the camp and unable to contact Qiongdu City. Fortunately, the young General Zhou was a glutton and wanted to eat fish.

, the terrain around Qionghai is wide, so he naturally has many more opportunities to communicate with the city.

……

Early on the next morning, the Han army continued to attack the city.

It's just that the siege troops were replaced by Huang Yuan's troops.

Huang Yuanjing was defeated the day before yesterday and suffered a lot of losses. Before his sluggish morale could be restored, he was sent to chew hard bones again. The soldiers were naturally a little reluctant.

Therefore, they fought very passively and spent a whole day in disgrace under the city. The soldiers only wanted to save their lives and were unwilling to fight to the death. They had no spirit of being aggressive and daring to fight. Naturally, there were no further results.

After returning to camp that night, Zhou Mo was furious and stopped Huang Yuan outside the camp. In front of all the officers and soldiers, he slapped Huang Yuan until he fell to the ground:

"Coward! Shame on you! With your style of fighting, if you don't know, you would fucking think it's a woman doing embroidery!"

Huang Yuan was dissatisfied and said: "We lost a lot of soldiers the day before yesterday, and we still need time to repair them. The general forced me to go out to fight today. It's good to be able to fight like this!"

Zhou Mo scolded: "Sophistry! Can you blame me for the loss the day before yesterday?"

Huang Yuan said loudly: "The loss the day before yesterday was the day before yesterday, and I am talking about today. You should not have ordered our troops to fight today. Attacking the city is already difficult and the losses will be huge. You are reluctant to use the soldiers you recruited from your hometown. You are so stupid

My uncle is reluctant to use his soldiers, so he knows that if he uses me, all my men will soon die!"

When the soldiers onlookers heard Huang Yuan's words, they were too frightened to speak loudly. This was the first time they had seen someone dare to speak to the commander like this. And after thinking about it carefully, he was pretty damn right.

Zhou Mo said angrily: "Who are you talking to? I ask you, you are me, then who am I?"

"You are His Majesty's brother, the number one wealthy family in Langzhong, and the son-in-law of the Yanniu tribe. You are in your twenties, and you have commanded an army of ten thousand people without even fighting a single battle. I, Huang Yuan, admire you very much."

This sentence was strange and sarcastic. All the soldiers knew that the situation would become serious once these words were spoken, and there was silence for a while.

Zhou Mo was so angry that he kicked Huang Yuan to the ground and said to his left and right: "Take my talisman, I will kill this person!"

Fu Wei, Zhang Yi, Chen Dao, and Lang Lu appeared in time, grabbed Zhou Mo tightly, and admonished: "General, please calm down. Although Huang Yuan made mistakes, his crimes will not lead to death!"

"You humiliated me too much. I swear to kill you today!"

Chen Dao said to Huang Yuan: "Prefect Huang, please take the people away quickly and go to Suqi County to station temporarily. We will wait until the general calms down in a few days before making further arguments."

Zhou Mo said angrily: "Huang Yuan, you dare to leave and try!"

Huang Yuan's face was expressionless, and he cupped his hands and said: "General, I'm leaving."

After saying that, he went to the camp and ordered more than a thousand soldiers and horses from his direct lineage, and rushed to Suqi County in the north without looking back.

The rest of the troops were not taken away, probably because they didn't want to get things done, leaving room for maneuver.

While Zhou Mo was yelling angrily, he was forcefully dragged back to the Chinese army camp by Zhang Ni and others.

In front of the camp, the soldiers watching began to whisper again.

Everyone thought of the last time Huang Yuan attacked the city and was ambushed. It was rumored that he received a slap in the face as soon as he came back. They all felt that the conflict between the two had already existed, and it was not surprising that it had intensified to this point today.
