A victory boosted the morale of the Terran soldiers, and after the celebration, Li Xiao arranged a team of men and horses to go to the Headless Valley to pick up the old man, while he and Guo Rengui went to invite Ye Xiang.

The two stopped the horse, and Li Xiao entered the courtyard, clasped his fists and shouted, "Mr. Ye, Li Xiao came to thank you." ”

Ye Xiang walked out, saw Li Xiao and said with a smile: "General Li, can you win?"

When Li Xiao heard Ye Xiang ask, he knelt down on his knees and said: "Thank you Mr. for your advice, you have won a big victory, Li Xiao is not talented, but Mr. Li Xiao is talented, Mr. Li Xiao Wang went out of the mountain, and Li Xiao fought back the spirit army." ”

Ye Xiang hurriedly helped Li Xiao up and said: "The general doesn't have to make this big gift, Ye Xiang has already packed his bags, and he knows that the general will send someone to invite me, but I didn't expect the general to come by himself." ”

Li Xiao was overjoyed and glanced at Guo Rengui, who hurriedly took out the prepared gold and silver and handed it to Ye Xiang.

Guo Rengui said: "Under Guo Rengui, the successor of the Jingchuang people, he has long admired Mr. Daming, a little courtesy, not a respect." ”

Ye Xiang was also not polite, stretched out his hand to take it, handed it to Tong'er, and said politely: "Each other, Mr. Guo is a famous family, Ye Xiang is a mountain village man, and he cannot be compared with Mr. Guo." ”

Li Xiao looked at the two of them and said, "Since Mr. has already packed his bags, we might as well talk while walking." ”

Ye Xiang smiled slightly and said, "Obey the general's arrangement." ”

Ye Xiang said to the boy: "Tong'er, when I am not there, you have to study hard, don't forget to take care of the tobacco, and I will come back next year." After speaking, he left with Li and Guo.

The three of them rushed all the way back to Shu County, Li Xiao raised the account to discuss the matter, everyone came to the conference hall, Li Xiao showed the roster of generals and the military deployment map to Ye Xiang, Ye Xiang took it and looked at it.

Li Xiao said to everyone: "Mr. Ye was invited by me to be a military advisor, and in the battle last night, Mr. Ye instructed me, and Mr. Ye will command the deployment of troops in the future." ”

Ye Xiang didn't listen to Li Xiao either, just looked at the roster by himself, and Runfeng looked at Ye Xiang's actions, a little unhappy.

Then he said, "I don't know how many soldiers and horses Mr. Ye has brought?"

Ye Xiang still ignored Runfeng.

Runfeng was even more unhappy and said, "I wonder if Mr. Ye understands the art of war, how many soldiers and horses can he bring?"

Li Xiao said to Runfeng: "Runfeng, don't be unreasonable, it's not too late for Mr. Ye to finish reading." ”

Ye Xiang looked at Li Xiao for a while and said: "The general is composed of victories, cars, troops, teams, regiments, villages, battalions, and armies, which is very good, and can be well arranged in the future." ”

Everyone looked at Ye Xiang and saw that he didn't say anything, they were inevitably a little disappointed, Li Xiao looked at Ye Xiang and said, "Mr. Ye"

The words were interrupted by Ye Xiang, and Ye Xiang said: "The general should call a few trustworthy scouts to come over."

Everyone was puzzled, Li Xiao did so, and called a few scouts led by Liu Yi in, Ye Xiang said to Liu Yi: "Go and take Chen Shui quickly." Rongze, Tianyang, Fanyang, Chen Shui, and Loulan inquired about the situation clearly. Liu Yi and the others retreated.

Ye Xiang said again: "When the spirit army entered the customs, there were more than 400,000 soldiers and horses, Chen Yu Dazhai fought a battle, and lost a lot, and the day before yesterday, the enemy army was defeated, and our army should take advantage of the victory to pursue."

After hearing this, Runfeng said: "Mr. Ye said so, but how should he take advantage of the victory to pursue?"

Ye Xiang smiled slightly and said, "Let's make a decision when the scouts come back," After speaking, he lit a cigarette gun and smoked it.

The cigarette gun was lit, and the big tent was filled with the aroma of tobacco, and everyone looked at Ye Xiang's behavior even more strangely, all looking at Li Xiao, Li Xiao walked to Ye Xiang's side, and was just about to speak, but was interrupted by the cigarette gun handed over by Ye Xiang.

Ye Xiang said: "General, you can come to take two sips, this is a high-grade tobacco leaf, it has the effect of repelling poison, it is the seed that the teacher asked for from the medical fairy, planted by the contemptible people, carefully cared for, after smoking, refreshed." ”

Li Xiao waved his hand and said, "Mr. enjoys it himself, I don't know what the intent of the scouts sent by Mr. is?"

Ye Xiang took a puff of his cigarette and said, "I'll ask someone to find out if the ice of the Jing River is all civilized." ”

As soon as everyone heard about the Jing River, they searched on the map, and it turned out that the Jing River was a canal leading from Chen Youguan to Zixuanguan, but it had been abandoned, and everyone was puzzled.

Runfeng said: "Mr. Ye, I don't know what the meaning of exploring the Jing River is? The Jing River is more than 100 miles away from the nearest city of the Seven Prefectures in the Northeast, is Rongze, could it be that Mr. Ye wants to divert the water of the Jing River?"

Ye Xiang looked at Runfeng and smiled, "Why not?"

Runfeng said: "If you dig a hundred miles of rivers, you need to use many people and horses, so that the Three Spirit Army will not know, then wouldn't we?"

Ye Xiang interrupted Runfeng's words with a wave of his hand, took a puff of his cigarette, extinguished the cigarette gun again, walked to the table, pointed to the map and said, "What if there is a fork river leading here?"

Everyone was shocked at first glance, but they were skeptical, and Wan Fang said at this time: "I have been wandering in this northeast for many years, and I never knew that there was a river here."

Ye Xiang looked up at Li Xiao, as if he had something to say, Li Xiao nodded and said: "Mr. Ye, it doesn't hurt to have something to say, these people are Li Xiao's old friends, and they are credible." ”

Ye Xiang looked up at everyone and said, "Generals are not strange, General Li defeated Chen Shui, this matter is very tight, and I have to guard against it."

Then he said: "There is indeed an underground dark river here, I have been here before, and this river happens to pass under Rongze" After speaking, he pointed to the ridge north of Fanyang and said: "And the dark river is diverted on this ridge and leads to Zixuan." ”

Everyone was puzzled, and Li Xiao asked, "What does the gentleman mean to dig up this river and flood Rongze and Fanyang?"

Ye Xiang shook his head and said: "Flood and melt, burn Fanyang, and take Tianyang"

As soon as Ye Xiang's voice fell, everyone first looked at the map, then at Li Xiao, and finally at Ye Xiang, Runfeng said: "Mr. Ye, the general will not understand, if you dig the water of the dark river, why bother to explore whether the Jing River is civilized. ”

Ye Xiang glanced at Guo Rengui and said, "I think Mr. Guo has already understood the mystery here, right, Mr. Guo." ”

Guo Rengui smiled slightly and said: "I think Mr. Ye wants to cut off the two ends of the dark river, and the impact of water will flood and melt, right?" ”

Ye Xiang smiled and said: "Yes, but I still have to ask Mr. Guo for help, Mr. Guo is good at using the technique of telescoping, and the blocking of Rongze is none other than Mr. Guo." ”

Everyone was even more dazed after hearing this, and Runfeng wanted to ask again, but Guo Rengui interrupted and said: "General Xiaofeng, the time is not yet ripe, and you will naturally know when it is mature." ”

After hearing this, Li Xiao said: "The spirit army has suffered the loss of the Jingchuang kite, and then to Tianyang Linyou, the Lingjun will definitely prepare, not to mention that now there is only one Jingchuang kite in the hands of Brother Rengui, isn't it too good to burn Tianyang." ”

Ye Xiang said: "You don't need to use the Jingchuang kite to drench oil, the water can make a fire, the fire can burn the city, you just need to prepare a lot of oil." ”

After Guo Rengui heard Ye Xiang finish speaking, he laughed and said, "Mr. Ye is clever, this method is very good." ”

Ye Xiang lit his cigarette gun, Guo Rengui stroked his goatee, and everyone was confused.
