To the north of Bafang City, cross the Julan River, turn over the Yuncang Mountains, and then go north for hundreds of miles, and then arrive at Liangzhou. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Of the three border states, Liangzhou occupies the widest area, ranking in the middle, and Qingzhou and Youzhou protect it. Qingzhou is obstructed by Fenghuan Mountain, and Youzhou is defended by the Heishui River, among the three states, Duliang Prefecture needs to face the Beimu Iron Cavalry, so its military strength is the largest in the three states.

A hundred miles outside the city of Liangzhou, is the Iron Gate Pass, where the Liang army camped to resist the invasion of foreign enemies.

In the tent of the commander of the barracks, there were three people discussing the matter.

One person in blue clothes is dressed in blue, standing next to the main seat, facing the map hanging on the shelf, his face is calm, and his instrument is lofty. Although it is not as weak as the crown, it is calm and cold, without any childishness, which makes people feel at ease. This person is the new Zhenguo Gong - Wei Qingjue.

There are two people sitting opposite them, one is called Jing Danchen, the younger and more flowers, the scarf and Confucian robe, elegant and generous, the face is kind, full of learning and wisdom;

Wei Qingjie said: "What do the two gentlemen think of the current situation?" His head was not deviated, his body was not turned, and his eyes were still on the map.

Jing Danchen and Zhou Hengyu glanced at each other, and Jing Danchen said first: "The old man thinks that the Yelu clan's previous two attacks were just a temptation, and the next one is the point." A few days ago, the old man heard that Yelu's army had increased by 20,000, and ordered Yelumang to be the main general and Gu Jiming to be the military advisor. ”

Wei Qingjue said lightly: "My father is newly mourned, I have not been in charge of Zhenguo for a long time, and I have not yet been able to fully control Liangzhou, Beimu wants to take this opportunity to ask for some cheapness, which is also reasonable." What's more, this year is the Yelu clan sending troops to seize food, and it not only needs food and grass, but also needs a big victory to inspire people. ”

Zhou Hengyu said with a smile: "In recent years, the Yelu clan has not only failed to obtain benefits in Liangzhou, but also heard that it is in the territory of Beimu, and it is also subject to the Tuoba clan everywhere. If there is no more great victory, the hearts of the Yelu clan will be scattered. ”

"The arrogance of the Tuoba clan is even more forward. Wei Qingjue frowned, he knew a little bit about the strategies of his predecessors, it is not surprising that the Tuoba clan can compete with the Yelu clan, but if the Yelu clan is forced to back down everywhere like this, it is a bit too much, and I am afraid there is another reason in it. However, now is not a good time to pursue it, so I can only praise it for a moment or two, and wait until he solves the matter of taking food.

Then, Wei Qingjue asked, "In that case, what advice do the two gentlemen have?"

Jing Danchen said: "Although the Yelu clan is powerful, the old man thinks that it is not enough to be afraid. There are two reasons, first, there is still the Tuoba clan in the territory of Beimu, so it will not dare to compare life and death with our Liang army; second, the Tuoba clan has been entrenched in the border city of Beimu for many years, and the Yelu clan has sent troops, which can be said to have come from afar, and it is inevitable that people are tired and lacking horses, coupled with the lack of food and grass, and the lack of successors, it is bound to not be able to fight for a long time, so the more people and horses it has, the more beneficial it is to our side. ”

"Therefore, the prince only needs to stick to the grain and grass, and does not allow the Yelu clan to take advantage of the opportunity, and orders the army to focus on defense, not to fight easily, and the Yelu clan to spend time, so it will not take long for his troops to retreat. ”

Wei Qingjue nodded after hearing this, but did not speak, this plan is stable, but it is not the most agreeable.

Zhou Hengyu secretly observed for a long time, and when he saw that he was silent, he immediately stroked his beard and laughed loudly: "What Mr. Jing said is serious, but I think it is too conservative. ”

"Oh?" Jing Danchen didn't like it when he heard this, smiled kindly, and asked modestly, "If Yue Zhi has other high opinions, why not talk about it?"

Zhou Hengyu said with a smile: "Mr. Jing said that the Yelu clan urgently needs a big victory to convince the people, and I think the same is true for the national prince." And now is a great opportunity. ”

Wei Qingjue was also silent, only turned his head sideways, and glanced at Zhou Hengyu with his residual vision.

Jing Danchen pondered for a moment, and then nodded and said: "What Yue Zhi said is reasonable, but the old man was not thoughtful and forgot the situation in Liangzhou and the situation of the Guogong. According to the meaning of Yue, what should be done?"

Zhou Hengyufeng's eyes closed slightly, and said: "Trap and kill it with grain and grass." ”

"Very good!" Wei Qingjue's eyes lit up, and he finally opened his mouth to praise. He asked the emperor for permission, and it was for this reason that he went to Jiangnan to secretly collect grain and grass.

Jing Danchen said: "Where does the grain and grass come from? Although the Yelu clan is not fighting to the death, it must be well prepared. Speaking of this, Jing Danchen glanced at Wei Qingjue and said, "Guogong is very good, but he has already prepared, and the grain and grass in the army are more than the eight thousand stones on the surface?"

Wei Qingjue turned around, bowed apologetically to Jing Danchen, and said, "Yixun didn't mean to hide it, and I hope to respect the old man Haihan." ”

"Why should the prince be concerned? The fewer people who know about such important matters, the better. Jing Danchen smiled and returned the salute, not caring at all, "It's just that I don't know if the rest of the grain and grass have been properly placed?"

Wei Qing bowed his head and said, "Mr. Jing can rest assured, it has been properly settled." ”

"That's good, that's good. Jing Danchen didn't ask where the grain and grass were placed, but said with a smile, "In this way, the Yelu clan will have hooked ears!"

Unexpectedly, Zhou Hengyu shook his head and said, "No, there are still variables in this." ”

Jing Danchen pondered slightly, and asked solemnly: "What Yue Zhi is referring to, isn't it the military advisor Gu Jiming?"

"It's this person. Speaking of this person, Zhou Hengyu's face was leisurely and serious, "As a military advisor and in charge of the overall situation, there is a chance that this plan will not be successful." ”

"This man is well-versed in the art of war, and he can make good decisions, and it is indeed a trouble to have him there. Jing Danchen's eyebrows tightened, and the wrinkles on his forehead became more and more profound, "We should try to transfer it out of this place, but now that time is pressing, it is not easy to do this for a while......

Wei Qingjue listened to the words, did not see any worries, and only said to Jing Danchen: "Mr. Jing can rest assured, since Mr. Zhou has proposed this proposal, there should be a solution." You and I might as well listen to Mr. Zhou's clever plan. ”

Jing Danchen was relieved when he heard this.

Zhou Hengyu said with a smile: "If you want to solve this problem, it is not difficult, but the means are not good, and it is not as upright as respecting the old man." I wonder if Guogong wants to use it?"

Jing Danchen didn't mind, but persuaded: "On the battlefield, no matter how much conspiracy and conspiracy, as long as you can win, it is a good plan." Why should you care about that? ”

Wei Qingjue was even more direct, and said, "Sir, but you want to send someone to assassinate?"

Zhou Hengyu bowed: "Exactly." If you get rid of this person, it will not only benefit you now, but also save you a lot of trouble in the future. ”

After speaking, Zhou Hengyu looked at Wei Qingjue, his eyes flashed with a light of calculation, and said, "That person has been bothering the Guogong Mansion for so long, it's time to contribute." ”

Wei Qingjie knew that Zhou Hengyu was referring to the princess of Xishu - Chen Yaobing.

Chen Yaobing is Zheng Shuiyao, who returned to Liangzhou from Lanzhou with her before. Now she is being placed in the Zhenguo Mansion by him in the name of "guest", and she is not allowed to enter and leave at will for surveillance.

Outside Liangzhou City, he didn't care what she wanted, but when he entered Liangzhou City, he couldn't help her.

Why did she come, Wei Qingjue knew in his heart, and it was not so easy to contact Beimu.

"When this matter is agreed, I will go back to the Zhenguo Mansion and talk to him. ”

Jing Danchen frowned, and his words were worried: "This is not child's play, the prince should be cautious." ”

Princess Xishu is in Liangzhou, and she cooperates with Zhenguo Gong, once this matter is leaked, it will definitely be used by someone with a heart. If you are charged with treason against the enemy, it is not a joke.

Wei Qingjie waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, Mr. Jing, Chen Yaobing's identity is special, even if she should do this, Yixun will not act rashly." ”

Jing Danchen watched Wei Qingjue grow up, knew his temperament well, and knew that if he said so, he would not come nonsense, and he was a little relieved.

"Guogong ......" This time, Zhou Hengyu frowned.

"What Mr. Zhou is going to say, I know. When the words came out, he was interrupted by Wei Qingjue, "I'm not the one who can't wait to make a decision." I'm waiting for a message. ”

Zhou Hengyu was so smart, as soon as his mind turned, he had already guessed where the news that Wei Qingjue was waiting for came from.

"How long does the prince want to wait, and if he doesn't, what should he do?"

"Seven days, at most seven days, and if the seven days do not come, the plan will be abandoned. Wei Qingjue closed his cold eyes lightly, and opened them again, and the cold in his eyes was even worse, "But Gu Jiming is still going to die, Chen Yaobing...... I can't get out of Liangzhou alive!"

"Okay!" Zhou Hengyu shouted, his eyebrows relaxed, and he returned to his previous leisure. He intends to be in Beimu, Xishu is just a gift, Wei Qingjue is willing to kill Gu Jiming, what about Xishu, how about the princess of Xishu, what does it have to do with him?

Wei Qingjue said: "Then in the past seven days, I will use the strategy of respecting the old gentleman first, drag it first, and grind their morale." After that, Wei Qingjue asked again: "How to arrange the troops, can the two gentlemen have a case?"

"Yelu Mang is brave and brave, impatient and reckless, and he is so happy, no matter who Gu Jiming dies at, he will inevitably suspect me in Liangzhou first. At this time, if you tempt them with grain and grass, you will inevitably be deceived. In order to avenge Gu Jiming, in order to save face, Yelu Mang was even more exempted from the punishment of Yelu in the Hui Dynasty, and he will personally lead most of the troops to seize food. Zhou Hengyu said.

"Yelu clan has a total of 70,000 people this time, and if Yelu Mang personally goes out to fight, he will lead 30,000 troops at the least, and 50,000 troops at the most. Jing Danchen said, "Our side should focus on defense. ”

Wei Qing thought for a while, and then said: "Among our army, General Xiahou is the best at defense, so he led 10,000 soldiers to guard the granary. ”

"Very good!" Zhou Hengyu clapped his hands and praised, "General Xiahou is calm and experienced in trouble, and he is the most suitable for the big job." ”

Wei Qingzhu turned around and looked at the map, his eyes fell on the granary near Fenghuan Mountain, and said: "Tell General Xiahou that you don't have to deal with it, and fight and retreat, so Yelu Mang will definitely be secretly happy, thinking that our army can't resist, and in order to seek military merits, he will inevitably pursue, and then General Xiahou will be introduced into Fenghuan Mountain." ”

Zhou Hengyu said with a smile: "In the rear, General Lian can lead 10,000 heavy cavalry to intercept it to prevent reinforcements." ”

Jing Danchen said: "As for the main army, the troops can be divided into two routes, one way from behind Yelu Mang's formation, and all the way from his belly to rush into battle, so that Ye Lu Mang and the army are scattered, forcing them to go deep into Fenghui Mountain. ”

"Stay in Fenghuan Mountain......" Wei Qingjue stared at the Fenghuan Mountain drawn on the map, and said, "If Chen Yaobing can make a move, we only need to block the exit of Fenghuan Mountain, if she can't make a move, our army will enter the mountain to join the Qingzhou army and work together to kill Yelu Mang." ”

Then the three of them discussed many details, and when everything was worked out, they suddenly heard a long howl coming from outside the tent.

Wei Qing heard this, saluted Jing Danchen and Zhou Hengyu, and walked out of the tent.

Walking outside the tent, Wei Qingjue looked up and saw a handsome and vigorous Haidongqing hovering in the blue sky above his head.

With a slight hook at the corner of Wei Qingjue's mouth, he raised his right arm, and the Hai Dongqing in the air swooped down quickly and landed firmly on Wei Qingjue's arm.

Wei Qingjue reached out and stroked its feathers, took off the letterhead from it, his right arm trembled slightly, and Hai Dongqing flapped his wings away.

After reading the contents of the letterhead, Wei Qingjue summoned an envoy, handed him an arrow, and said: "I have urgent matters to return to the Zhenguo Mansion, and the military affairs in the army will be temporarily replaced by General Xiahou." ”

"Yes!"

Outside the iron gate, some people wanted to ride their horses back to the city.

In the city of Liangzhou, someone is entering the city with a sword.

In the Guogong Mansion, some people gritted their teeth and waited with resentment.
