397. Stratagem

The night of Yanmen Pass is very heavy, the sky is full of shining stars, the weather is gradually warming up these days, and the breeze on the cheeks does not feel too cool.

The guards patrolling the night walked in front of them in an orderly manner, and when they saw Chu Shaoyuan saluting one after another, Chu Shaoyuan waved his hand absently and continued to walk forward.

Wei Qing followed by his side and spoke to him in a low voice, "Master, I have checked, and there is only one Cha'an Department left in the Tartars stationed outside the Guan, and the other four have been withdrawn one after another. ”

Chu Shaoyuan nodded, "What news has Bai Lang delivered recently?"

Wei Qing said: "It's just that the Nine Kings are angry, maybe there will be some conspiracy and tricks, let the master be careful, and Bai Lang said that if Helgul causes trouble for the master, the master can deal with it." ”

In other words, Helgul has been given up by Bai Lang, so he will say such a sentence.

Chu Shaoyuan thought of Helgul's brutal and willful behavior of not taking anyone in his eyes in Alechibe, although Bai Lang did not explicitly reprimand her, but it could be seen from the slightest that his relationship with the princess Hergul was not so good.

His heart was bright and dark for a while, and he turned his head to look at the city wall, the tall and majestic tower was stretched very long by the moonlight, and an idea gradually appeared in his heart.

After pondering for a moment, he said: "Hang Artur's body on the city gate when it is almost dawn, and if the Nine Kings are angry, tell him that if you want to return Artur's body, you must exchange it for 10,000 stones of grain and grass, otherwise Artur's body will always hang on the city gate." ”

Wei Qing's heart was shocked, in this way, the Nine Kings would definitely be provoked, and according to his temperament, he would definitely take the initiative to attack, and the decisions made by people under the anger were often not well thought out, so that when the two armies fought, they would have a little more certainty of victory.

He nodded hurriedly and said, "My subordinates will arrange it, in addition, Helgul's recent injuries have been a bit recurrent, do you want to ask a military doctor to ......?"

"No," Chu Shaoyuan interrupted him and said lightly, "When the time comes, listen to my orders." ”

When he said this, Wei Qing knew that Hergul would not live long, otherwise the master would not even refuse to invite her to the military doctor, because if she hired the military doctor, her final fate would be just a dead word, but it would let the military doctor know that such a person's savings would be a waste of effort and more than worth the loss.

He replied, "Yes." ”

Chu Shaoyuan asked again: "What is the movement in Yunfu City?"

Wei Qing frowned, thinking of the letter he had handed over from Yongxingdang before, he was a little hesitant, and he didn't know what to say, but he saw Chu Shaoyuan's amber eyes turn around, looked at him suspiciously, and asked, "Is there anything bad to say?

He said in a deep voice: "Because of the snow disaster in the northwest, many victims poured into Yunfu City, and now there is chaos outside the city, yesterday from Yongxing handed over the news that some families in Yunfu City have begun to give porridge, especially the Xia family, the porridge shed has opened several, and there are rumors in Yunfu City that the Xia family resells rice and grain, and even the princess of Guangning has been alarmed......"

Chu Shaoyuan was extremely surprised, he knew that his actions would affect the movement of the court, but he didn't expect the impact on the Xia family to be so deep, he couldn't help but be a little worried, and asked repeatedly: "What about the current situation?

Wei Qing shook his head, "That's all there was in the letter handed over yesterday, and there was no one on the side, but my subordinates felt that this was all temporary, and when the news of His Highness came back, it would get better." ”

Chu Shaoyuan's heart twitched, she didn't know what to be in a hurry at this time, she hated that he wasn't in Yunfu City, otherwise these things would be nothing!

After inspecting the circle, Chu Shaoyuan returned to the guard.

As soon as he closed the door, he saw Shen Shuofeng coming out of the ear room, carrying a person in his hand, that person looked very weak, his face was pale and his breath was weak, as if he would die here in the next moment.

When the man saw Chu Shaoyuan, his eyes immediately opened wider than a copper bell, and a wail came out of his mouth, like a cry before death, which sounded terrible.

Chu Shaoyuan looked at that person carefully, and the more he looked at it, the more familiar he became, and suddenly recognized this person, and said in surprise: "You are He Jingwen!"

As soon as the words fell, I saw He Jingwen shrinking back, as if he could hide his whole person in this way, so that no one would find out that it was him.

Chu Shaoyuan was strange, He Jingwen served as a thousand-captain in Yanmen Pass, and he was also quite enthusiastic, why did he suddenly become like this?

Shen Shuofeng threw He Jingwen on the ground, took out an account book from his arms and handed it to Chu Shaoyuan, "The private accounts of Yanmen Pass are here, I met him when I was looking for private accounts, he got the account book that Wei Feng hid and wanted to destroy the corpse, but fortunately I found it, how could he resist to the death, and I was worried that I would be bumped into, so I simply pressed him here." ”

Chu Shaoyuan suddenly realized.

Shen Shuofeng was arranged by him to find a private account, and it was not strange to bump into someone else looking for an account book, but he didn't expect this person to be He Jingwen!

He lit the tung oil lamp on the table, flipped through the account book, and sure enough, it was the private accounts of Yanmen Guanma City in the past few years, and he remembered them clearly and in detail.

Looking at it, Chu Shaoyuan couldn't help but sneer, he didn't expect that the horse market in Yanmen Pass would flow out so many war horses outside the pass, no wonder more than 100,000 horses against less than 100,000 Tartars would collapse into an army, feeling that his own horses were used by the family, but his own army was using his body to resist the steel division, so it was strange that he could have a chance of winning!

When he thought of the war horses he had seen in Alecchi, and then looked at the scattered battle he had fought before, his anger did not come to a place!

The courage of the Wei family is really getting bigger and bigger year by year, no wonder my father has made up his mind to rectify the horse market, if he continues to let it go like this, in a few years, I am afraid that Dayan's country will have someone else's surname!

Chu Shaoyuan closed the account book, stood up and looked condescendingly at He Jingwen who was paralyzed on the ground, and scolded angrily: "What a big guts! How much have you been involved in these things? What kind of role are you playing in it? My Dayan's country has been hollowed out by you moths!"

He scolded and was about to stretch out his foot and kick He Jingwen.

“…… Three...... Third Highness..."He Jingwen lay on the ground as if he had finally taken a breath, and said to Chu Shaoyuan: "I... I'm just confused... I didn't ......"

Chu Shaoyuan smiled contemptuously, "It's useless for you to say this to me, when you get to your father, think about what to say." ”

He raised his voice and shouted Wei Qing, Wei Qing was outside the door, and when he heard him shouting, he came in immediately, and saw Chu Shaoyuan pointing to He Jingwen on the ground, his expression was full of disgust: "Lock him up in a dungeon, be careful not to let him die, and escort him back to Yunfu with Wei Jie and Wei Feng!"

He Jingwen's face instantly fell silent.

……

After dawn, a male corpse appeared on the city gate, his hair was braided into countless small braids hanging down the back of his head, revealing a very deep face, the black suit on his body seemed to have been torn by a whip, and the exposed skin and flesh were also whip marks, and the bruised marks were left on the body, like a brand, showing what kind of beatings the man had suffered before his death.

Under the city tower, some Tartar soldiers had already found the male corpse hanging on the city tower, and after careful identification, they were all shocked, and rushed to tell their masters.

Hearing this, Urutbar was furious, and strode out of the camp, and looked at it from a distance, and his son himself certainly recognized it, and just by looking at the human figure that was bound and hung from the tower, he knew that it must be Artur.

He was full of remorse in his heart, and he had a private relationship with An Beihou for many years, he never expected that one day he would be planted in the hands of An Beihou, and even his only son was killed, and the son he worked so hard to raise was also his only and most beloved son...... He clenched his fists fiercely and looked at his soldiers.

"Yan Gou deceives people too much! The revenge of killing the son is not shared with the sky, the order goes down, the ladder is set up, the bow and crossbow machine are prepared, and today it is bound to take the Yanmen Pass!"

Ulut Bar didn't even listen to the conditions, so he directly chose to attack, which surprised the guards of Yanmen Pass.

The king of Guangning has never experienced such a war, he came just to be ordered, in order to let the two princes not kill each other will go to Yanmen Pass, now standing on the city tower and looking at the ladder from afar, he can't help but worry, looking at it like this, the Tartars are all brave and good at fighting, if the Tartars are desperate, maybe the Yanmen Pass is really critical.

Chu Shaoyuan said softly on the side: "Uncle Fifteen, don't worry, he can't attack it, he only has tens of thousands of people in his hands, and he has lost a lot, which can't be compared with us at all, besides, I have other ways to defeat him." ”

Saying that the soldiers who were guarding the Yanmen Pass shouted in the conference hall, he deployed the strategy he thought of last night layer by layer, and even Xiao Wei couldn't help but sigh, Chu Shaoyuan really had a bit of talent for fighting.

And Urutbar just put up the ladder here, and before it was pushed to the city wall, it was caught off guard by the rain of arrows falling from the sky, and finally the ladder was finally erected, and the Tartar soldiers went up one by one, but they didn't expect to be poured boiling oil on the city wall just halfway through, and in an instant, the smell of the skin and flesh being scalded and rotten spread, and some of them who couldn't bear it immediately fell down from the ladder.

After attacking so hard for several hours, until it was dark, and Urutbar had lost nearly a quarter of his men and horses, he saw the rest of the soldiers sitting on the ground for a long time, but did not dare to touch the ladder again, and his heart was churning with anger.

He knew that Yanmen Pass was easy to defend and difficult to attack, if he used human heads to fill it, it was not impossible to fill it, but he didn't have so many soldiers and horses in his hands, and he felt that his move to attack the city was a little hasty for a while, and he was remorse and anger in his heart, and recalled the soldiers, and he sat alone in the tent and thought.

At this time, a subordinate suddenly came in in a panic from outside the tent, "King Khan, our grain and grass have been burned!"

He stood up in shock, and looked at his subordinates with wide eyes, "What do you say, how can grain and grass be burned?" he asked as he walked out, and was about to step out of the tent when he suddenly hit the back of his head, and he immediately collapsed in the tent.

The subordinate sneered, pulled the rope from the tent and tied him firmly, and stuffed him into the quilt, as if he was asleep.
