Chapter 45 Trying to Break the Three Cities
"General Hui, Mr. Ye, the water of the Jing River has been fully civilized. Liu Yi knelt down on one knee and said with both hands clenched into fists.
Ye Xiang nodded and said, "Very good, it's a success." ”
Liu Yi continued: "General, on the way back, I caught a spirit army scout, and I heard from him that the general of Rong Ze was changed yesterday, and now the lord of Rong Ze will be Gu Feng, the eldest son of Gu Lu, and the deputy will be Gu Huo, the second son of Gu Lu, with about 10,000 spirit troops. Not only Rongze, Fan Yang and Tianyang also increased their troops a lot, the main commander of Tianyang is the third son of Gulu Guzhan, as well as the two brothers of Phantom and Ghost, and the main general of Fan Yang is the great swordsman of the Yilan clan, Beimu and Lan Gua Nalan Erdu"
Li Xiao and Ye Xiang both frowned after hearing this, and Li Xiao said to Liu Yi: "Remember your great work, go down and rest." ”
After Liu Yi left, Ye Xiang said: "These people are not simple, Gu Lu's three sons are all among the best generals in the Three Spirits Army, and the shadow and ghost are also masters who have been famous for a long time, especially Beimu, who can be included in the holy position, and the three monsters of the Lan family are not simple. ”
Li Xiao shook his head and said, "No, the people who know about this matter all have old friends with me, and there are still two monsters left in the Lan family." ”
Ye Xiang looked at Li Xiao and asked, "If it's not a leak, it's a goo to take precautions, this person is unfathomable, but why are there two monsters left in the Lan family?"
Li Xiao said: "The Lan clan's three monsters are buried outside the city of Shujun, and I have also fought with him, although this person is powerful, he is still defeated in my hands, but I don't know how the three sons of Gulu and Beimu are." ”
Ye Xiang said: "The general has fought with Gulu, his three sons have been selected by the masters since they were children, and they are as good as Gulu, and Beimu has been in seclusion for many years, and it is normal for the general not to know that he is also alive, Beimu is the second swordsman of the Yilan clan, and he is the only one who has fought with the Sword Saint for more than fifty rounds." ”
After hearing this, Li Xiao asked in surprise, "Are you talking about the Four High Saint Sword Saints?"
Ye Xiang nodded and said, "Presumably, the generals have heard of the Five Immortals, the Four Saints, and the Six Great Masters."
Li Xiao nodded and said: "Haven't these people already lived in seclusion in the mountains and don't ask about the world, a few days ago, when I met Huaxian Luolan in Luohuajian, she has been in seclusion for more than a hundred years. ”
Ye Xiang said: "It's true that he has lived in seclusion, I don't know why Beimu came out of the mountain, he is one of the six masters." ”
Li Xiao looked at Ye Xiang, thinking to himself how this person knew about the things of the world when he lived in the countryside, so he asked out of curiosity: "I don't know why Mr. Ye knows so much about the things of the world."
Ye Xiang smiled faintly and said: "I only returned to the countryside last year, and I have been traveling with my teacher before, and my teacher saw that I was dull and could not teach magic cultivation, so he passed on some of my scriptures, which I have not yet been able to fully learn." ”
Li Xiao asked again: "I don't know who Mr. and teacher are?"
Ye Xiang smiled again and said: "The teacher is not allowed to speak, and you must not disobey the teacher's orders, but the general will definitely see you in the future." ”
Li Xiao nodded and said, "Then do we still want to attack the three cities of Rongze, Fanyang, and Tianyang?"
Ye Xiang thought for a while and said: "There is no need to be in a hurry in this matter, after dark, I will divinate a hexagram to see what the destiny is, and the general will wait for my news." After speaking, he lit a cigarette gun, smoked and left, leaving Li Xiao.
After listening to Ye Xiang's words, Li Xiao was a little apprehensive in his heart, and he didn't know what to do, at this time, Ruixin came to Li Xiao with a big jar and said: "Ruixin saw that Gongzi's brows were tightened, and he knew that Gongzi had something on his mind, and seeing that Gongzi liked to drink alcohol on weekdays, Ruixin made some wine for Gongzi to drink with peach blossoms." ”
Li Xiao looked at Rui Xin's heart and felt warm, and said in his heart: "If Ying'er also treats me like Rui Xin" Thinking about it, he opened the wine jar, picked up the jar and drank it in a big gulp.
The next day, everyone raised the account to discuss the matter, Ye Xiang still smoked his cigarette gun and said to everyone: "I made a divination last night, the three cities of Rongze, Fanyang, and Tianyang will be plagued by fire and water, this is the will of heaven, but it can still be carried out." ”
Li Xiao looked at Ye Xiang very surely, and said, "I don't know how Mr. Ye will arrange it?"
Ye Xiang looked at Li Xiao and said: "The general can immediately fly to Dongning, and order He Feng's troops in Dongning to cut off the roads and bridges from Chen Shui and Loulan to Shujun and Tianyang, and ambush the soldiers and horses at the break to prevent Chen Shui and Loulan from supporting, and then cut off the waterway from Dongning to Zixuanguan to prevent Zixuanguan from increasing troops, so that he must remember that he must not lose his life." ”
Li Xiao nodded and said, "He Feng is my teacher's nephew again, and he doesn't dare to disobey my orders." ”
Ye Xiang said again: "Our soldiers and horses are not enough to deal with the three cities, and the general will borrow troops from Chen You, so that Chen You can send 50,000 troops to besiege Tianyang. ”
Li Xiao nodded and said: "Chen Yu is easy to do, I and General Nan Juan are righteous brothers, I have written, he will definitely send troops." ”
Ye Xiang said again: "General Wanfang can bring 3,000 soldiers and horses, bring more pockets, to hold sand and soil, to the fork of the Jing River, cut off the dark river, build a high dam, and when the military order arrives, demolish the high dam, pour the water of the Jing River into the dark river, and then you can march to Rongze." ”
Wan Fang didn't talk, but looked at Li Xiao, Li Xiao nodded and said, "Brother Wan, just do it"
Ye Xiang continued: "Mr. Guo, the victory or defeat of this battle depends on you, after General Wan blocks the dark river, you can take three thousand men and horses, find a way to enter the underground dark river, and make a hole in the underground of Rongze, three or five zhang, seven or eight zhang, you don't have to hit the ground, so as not to be discovered by the spirit army, after the hole is built, use your telescopic technique to block the dark river, you will take people to Rongze outside the city to squat and ambush, and when General Wan's soldiers and horses arrive, they will attack Rongze." ”
Guo Rengui smiled slightly and said: "Mr. Ye, you can rest assured, this matter is on Guo Rengui, and there will never be any mistakes." ”
Ye Xiang nodded and then said: "General Ke, you can lead five hundred men and horses to dig a mountain on the ridge north of Fanyang, smash more holes in the ridge, and put the crockpot developed by Mr. Guo into it, and after the battle of Rongze starts, you will blow up the ridge and go to fight General Runfeng." ”
Boss Ke glanced at Runfeng and nodded yes.
Ye Xiang said to Runfeng again: "General Runfeng, you take 5,000 men and horses, prepare 1,000 carts of oil, put the oil into barrels, and place it on the top of the hillside between Fanyang and Rongze, but no one can find it, and after you finish, you will go to Fanyang to meet General Li." ”
Although Runfeng didn't fully understand Ye Xiang's meaning at this time, he also understood the approximate situation, although Runfeng was young, he was steady, open-minded and studious, seeing Ye Xiang so mobilized, he still admired Ye Xiang in his heart, so he nodded and took the order.
Ye Xiang looked at Li Xiao again and said: "The general brought three thousand men and horses, each with a bow and crossbow, and more rockets, but when he saw that there was a column of water poured into Fanyang, he shot rockets into the city, and a fire would inevitably burn in the city. ”
Li Xiao nodded and said, "Li Xiao has written it down, I don't know when I will leave?"
Ye Xiang said: "Start immediately"
Everyone nodded, Li Xiao looked at Ye Xiang and said, "Sir, we are all out of the city, who will guard Shu County?"
Ye Xiang said with a smile: "The general sent troops, I will bring people to Shoushu County, and by the way, prepare a merit book and a celebration banquet."
