Two days of hard work passed in the blink of an eye, Yan Zhuang watched the grain in the camp pile up as high as a hill in a very short period of time, and his heart was full of emotion, but due to the rush of time, most of the grain was packed in burlap bags, and then scattered and piled up on the open ground, at most two layers of bamboo mats were spread on the top of the sack pile, which was counted as rain protection.

However, Yan Zhuang has been secretly praying that God will not make extraneous branches, and that the wind and waves will be calm before the delivery, and the last drop of rain will not fall. Otherwise, those already ill-intentioned Shenwu troops don't know what else to do.

As soon as he thought of this, Yan Zhuang sighed unconsciously. General Hu on the side keenly discovered the hidden worries in Yan Zhuang's mood.

"Xianggong, will there be any change in the things that have been decided?"

Yan Zhuang looked up at the sky that had just turned white, and couldn't help but let out a long sigh, it was finally a good weather with a gentle sun, and God would not embarrass himself in the delivery.

Then he turned to look at the general.

"The world is like this, until the last moment, there is always the possibility of change. At the end of the day, it's like a piece of meat, if you haven't eaten it for a moment, then the meat can enter anyone's stomach, whether it's a dog's stomach!"

General Hu was a little difficult to understand the hidden worries in Yan Zhuang's words, but when he thought about it carefully, he felt that it made sense.

"The last general understands that he will be careful and cautious to ensure that these grains are delivered safely!"

Yan Zhuang smiled and nodded.

"The general is really smart, the old man only said a few words, and then he understood!"

In fact, this is just a solemn perfunctory statement, and I don't want to confide too much with this general.

Soon, someone rushed to report the news.

"The Tang battalion has sent people to check the military rations, please allow the prime minister, do you want to let them into the camp?"

Hearing this, Yan Zhuang actually let go of the relief in his heart.

"Needless to say, let them in!"

is waiting for this moment, if the Shenwu Army changes again, he can't afford to toss. Just yesterday, An Qingxu actually sent more than a dozen edicts in a row......

But his relaxation did not last more than a quarter of an hour, and someone rushed to report it.

"It's a big deal, the grain team that just left the city was robbed and robbed, robbed ......"

"What?"

Yan Zhuang was suddenly frightened, and thought that there was a problem with the Tanma, or something wrong with his ears.

"Probe, report!"

However, he received an even more shocking reply.

"Yu Xianggong, don't probe anymore, it's all seen by the villain Qin Yan, the escorted soldiers have all been killed, if the villain didn't run, if he ran fast, he would have become a ghost under the arrow!"

"No way, no way! There's no reason for them to do that......"

All of a sudden, Yan Zhuang lost an inch, and he rarely lost his posture in front of everyone.

General Hu was also taken aback, and immediately asked:

"Xianggong, the last general will send someone to rescue!"

At first, Yan Zhuang just nodded randomly, but the next moment he immediately came to his senses again, and beckoned:

"Slow, slow!"

General Hu turned his head in surprise.

"Do you still have orders?"

"No, don't go into battle easily! Qin Jin is cunning by nature, he must not act rashly, maybe he is waiting, waiting!"

General Hu is obviously much more confident than Yan Zhuang, and said:

"Xianggong! At this moment, even if you know that the Tang people have ambush soldiers, you have to send someone to go, if you ignore it, won't we cut off contact with Luoyang?"

There was nothing wrong with his idea, and it was even the most plausible idea. However, Yan Zhuang had carefully studied all the major battles that Qin Jin had personally participated in, and almost all of them used treacherous tactics to achieve the final victory, in other words, although the Shenwu army was prestigious, it had never really defeated the Yan army head-on, and they had relied on their cunning and God's protection to reach the city of Luoyang.

At this time, of course, Yan Zhuang would not be stupid enough to bet on which side God would favor, for now, the safest way is to plan and then act, only when he sees Qin Jin's plan clearly, can he have the confidence to defeat it in one fell swoop.

Instead of recklessly sending people to relieve the siege, it is better to brake quietly, which is the best choice.

General Hu still insisted, but Yan Zhuang's face changed, and he shouted:

"What's the matter? Do you plan to disobey orders? Think the old man's sword is not sharp enough, and it can't kill you?"

The sudden turn of face made General Hu freeze suddenly. This old man, who had always been smiling since they met, suddenly changed his face, and he had to carefully weigh the difference between disobedience and obedience. In the end, General Hu still chose to obey because of his admiration for Yan Zhuang.

……

Qin Yan was trembling and trembling when he was originally prepared, thinking that there would be a big battle after dawn, a vicious battle, but he didn't expect that his opponents were just some people who transported grain and third-rate soldiers of the grain protection team, and they were all solved in just three or two strokes. All the grain was transported back to the barracks, and their characters were just beginning.

According to the strategy agreed between Qin Jin and Yang Xingben, Qin Yan's men and horses were in charge of guarding, and Tian Chengsi was to lead his men to dig a trench at least two steps wide between Luoyang City and the rebel camp to block the connection between them.

Of course, a small trench was not enough to block the rebels' contact with the city, but as long as a large number of men and horses were placed around the trench, it was enough to magnify the effect of the trench a hundredfold.

However, before the trench is completed, it is the hardest time to survive. On the one hand, it is necessary to warn people in the city to rush out. On the other hand, it is also necessary to prevent the rebels in the barracks from counterattacking.

Based on Qin and Yang's analysis, the defenders in the city are likely to choose to watch from the wall, while the rebels trapped outside the city are likely to strike a hard blow. After all, if the connection with Luoyang City is completely cut off, they are waiting for their zombie Tang soldiers to besiege them with all their might.

Although half of the rebels in the barracks were the elite of the Luoluo River, Qin Yan could clearly see that they were not fully prepared for war when they came out, neither did they have the necessary large ordnance to defend the camp, and even the preparation of the arrows in the tun was very imperfect.

Let's ask the people who are making this kind of preparation, even if they are the first elite under An Lushan, so what?

Qin Yan thinks to himself, this is what Doctor Qin often said, with perfect preparation against an unprepared enemy, victory will definitely belong to the prepared side.

Persisting with such a high degree of vigilance for a morning, to Qin Yan's great surprise, neither in Luoyang City nor in the rebel barracks, no soldiers and horses were sent to stop the Shenwu Army's action of digging trenches.

Only the rebel barracks sent hundreds of Hu soldiers to make a tentative harassment near noon, and quickly withdrew to the barracks.

At this time, the entire army of the Shenwu Army had already made arrangements for major moves.

The Hedong Shenwu army led by Xue Huan moved from the north of the city to the south, blocking the east of the rebel camp, and at the same time it was in a horn situation with Qin Yan's troops.

The Hui cavalry of Moyan Siluo has been roaming around, but whenever they find that the rebels are moving, they will raid in large numbers and expel them if they are large. Qin Jin led the main force of the Chinese army, stationed in place, and sat in the rear.

Qin Jin did not surround the rebels from all sides, but actually blocked their east and west sides. With the excavation of a trench in the middle, although the scale is not large, but it has an extraordinary effect, it can form a situation of encircling three and missing one.

In order to dig this trench in the shortest possible time, the Shenwu army used tens of thousands of people at one time. And this kind of big move is a great risk, although Qin Yan and Xue Huan have deployed a large number of troops on the east and west sides, but the battlefield changes rapidly, once the rebels are determined to break through the defense line, it can still be easily done. Once the defensive line is breached, the civilians are faced with the rebel front.

This is very different from Qin Jin's previous style, and he used to make decisions easily without more than eighty percent of his certainty. And this time there were all kinds of risks and unpredictable factors in the plan, and he still sent a large number of people.

On the surface, Qin Jin was in the Chinese army, and he seemed to be extremely calm, handling military affairs as usual, and he didn't even go out of the camp to inspect it. But only he knew that the apprehension in his heart was unprecedented.

Just as Yang Xingben reprimanded Qin Yan before, he was prepared for the worst in everything.

Tens of thousands of people were sent to dig trenches, and the worst plan was that the people would be killed and scattered, and the casualties might reach a thousand. But it also gave Qin Yan and Xue Huan a chance, so that they could take the opportunity to cover the past from the east and west, so that the rebels would be defeated. To put it bluntly, the tens of thousands of people digging trenches are bait. Regardless of whether the fish bites the hook or not, it is always the person who holds the fishing rod in his hand, that is, the Shenwu Army.

If the rebels see his intentions, then they will not act rashly, in other words, the situation of the people is relatively safe.

I'm afraid that the person in charge of commanding the rebels is a fool, and he can't see through the intentions of the Shenwu Army.

It wasn't until the afternoon that Qin Jin was a little relieved, and at this time the rebels did not move, which means that they were a little too cautious, and the situation of the people was much safer, and half an afternoon was enough to dig a shallow trench.

I don't know when, Yang Xingben was already standing in the tent, Qin Jin raised his head, his face was slightly surprised.

saw Yang Xingben smile and said:

"The doctor is so nervous today, but I have never seen it before!"

Qin Jin also shook his head and smiled.

"Take the lives of Wan Minfu as a bet, and Qin can't be worried!"

In contrast, Yang Xingben is more open.

"These people were all good families before, and once the Son of Heaven was recruited, they would go to the battlefield, but now although they are only people's husbands, it is their fate to die for the country!"

With that, the two of them were silent at the same time, and only the sound of screams came from outside the tent.
