After confirming You Shicheng's willingness to surrender, all the generals smiled happily.

The next day, Wu Jun left a small number of people to be stationed in Fengyang, and the rest went directly to Bengbu.

The straight-line distance between the two places is extremely close, but there is no avenue in the straight-line distance, so the only option is to take a detour. After a long time, Wu Jun arrived in Bengbu.

Borja, who got the news, hurried to the top of the city, and then observed the enemy through the binoculars.

Telescopes have now become the standard equipment of many generals, and they are too effective to observe the enemy's situation and are irreplaceable.

"The direction of their main force seems to be Ximen. Are they going to attack in an all-round way?"

Borja wondered, Wu Jun came from the south, but after arriving, only one army was left in front of him, and the other large troops continued to detour, and it seemed that they were preparing to enter the city wall from the west. attack.

Borja's first reaction was that Wu Jun was going to attack from several walls at the same time, but he soon discovered another anomaly. He found that Wu Jun did not carry siege equipment.

Not to mention building cars, rushing cars, and even siege ladders don't seem to exist.

How to attack the city, is it possible that Wu Jun can still grow wings and fly up?

This is obviously impossible. If something goes wrong, there must be a demon. Borja couldn't help but think for a while.

Then, his face changed drastically.

"Not good, You Shicheng may be against it."

Borja lost his voice.

"Order troops immediately, and follow me to the west city wall to take over the defense. Anyone who resists, kill them."

Borja responded quickly and ordered immediately.

His generals didn't know how Borja came to the conclusion that You Shicheng would be opposed, but Borja gave an order, and they all hurriedly implemented it.

Borja took a thousand people and ran directly from the city wall to the west, arriving at You Shicheng's defense area one step ahead of Wu Jun.

Hearing that Borja brought people over, You Shicheng was suddenly shocked.

Is it exposed?

As the so-called guilty conscience of being a thief, this is the first thing You Shicheng thought of.

What to do now?

You Shicheng has a headache. If he rebels immediately, he needs to hold on until the Wu army arrives, and he will suffer heavy losses.

If it is not opposed now, in case Borja is the first to attack, it will be even worse, and it may be completely wiped out. The risk was too great for him to take such a risk.

"Someone, follow me to stop Borja."

You Shicheng made up his mind and took his soldiers to block Borja, and he must not let Borja's people enter his defense zone.

The two met at the top of the city, and You Shicheng took the lead to ask: "Borja, what are you doing here?"

"I saw Wu Jun rushing towards this side, and specially brought troops to support you."

Borja said.

When he saw You Shicheng leading someone to block him, he immediately understood everything in his heart.

However, he did not show it, but wanted to deceive You Shicheng first. As long as You Shicheng lets them go, they can suddenly burst into flames and kill You Shicheng's people.

However, You Shicheng's cautiousness did not let him do so.

You Shicheng said: "Thank you very much for your kindness. Our army has thousands of people here, which is enough to stop the Wu army's attack. The general should guard his city wall, so as not to be exploited by the Wu army."

He knew that he couldn't fool Borja, and he was just procrastinating.

The longer the delay, the better for him. When the Wu army arrives, the Qing army will be outnumbered and will be defeated.

"Presumptuous, what status do you have, dare to speak to me like this. Release it immediately, I want to supervise the battle."

Borja said angrily, according to the rank, his official position should be ranked higher in the world. What's more, he is still a Manchu, and in the Qing regime, he is naturally one rank higher than the Han.

On weekdays, Han generals at the same level met him, and they had to be polite.

In the past, both You Shicheng and Li Fei were under his jurisdiction and command by default.

However, most of the Green Battalion and the Eight Banners soldiers of the Qing army were not under each other's command.

Although You Shicheng was one level lower than Borja, and he was usually dispatched by Borja, the soldiers under his command only obeyed his orders, and Borja could not command.

This backward military system was also a factor that prevented them from defeating the Wu army.

Whenever there is a critical moment to cooperate, the generals between them still need to discuss, not like Wu Jun, the Shangguan directly gives an order, and the people below must execute it.

The efficiency between the two is not the same.

"Why do you supervise us, brothers, if we are supervised by them, is there any way to survive?"

You Shicheng provoked the emotions of the soldiers, and the soldiers under him immediately became angry.

Soldiers, the most annoying is that others come to supervise their own battles, forcing themselves to die.

"I think you want to rebel, kill me, and kill anyone who dares to stop."

Borja shouted.

"Brother, draw your knife and turn him against him."

As You Shicheng's voice fell, the two sides were already fighting together, and there was no confusion.

The army on You Shicheng's side was inferior to the Eight Banners soldiers in terms of personnel quality and weaponry. Therefore, after the fight, his side has to be at a disadvantage.

"Go and open the city gate and guard the city gate, Wu Jun will be here soon."

You Shicheng ordered to go down, and then he continued to stay in command to block the Qing army.

At this point, the two sides have completely torn their faces.

Borja knew that the city would definitely be unstoppable, but he did not intend to let You Shicheng go, and sent someone to transfer his own troops and Li Fei's troops to counter the rebellion together.

His own troops rushed over quickly. As for Li Fei's troops, they had not been seen for a long time.

The fact that the armies are not under each other is not good. At the critical moment, Borja cannot command those armies at all.

After Li Fei learned of You Shicheng's betrayal, he was also shocked.

After some thought, he quickly guessed the reason.

It must be that You Shicheng and Wu Jun have hooked up, otherwise, how could You Shicheng take such a big risk to suddenly rebel. With You Shicheng's strength alone, he is no match for Borja.

You Shicheng rebelled, and Bengbu would definitely not be able to hold it.

At this point, Li Fei is also thinking about his future.

If you listen to Borja now and attack You Shicheng, even if You Shicheng is destroyed, after the Wu army captures Bengbu, it will not be a dead end.

It seems that there is only one way out at this time.

Li Fei sneered in his heart, and then quietly ordered his subordinates to bring reliable people to attack those Eight Banners soldiers, and then put Wu Jun into the city.

He, too, has to turn to Wu Jun.

At this time, giving the Eight Banners a knife in the back can be regarded as a little credit anyway. After surrendering, you can get some preferential treatment more or less. Maybe, he can keep his current power and become a brigade commander.
