Chapter 115: Qi County
Although the generals heard Li Muqi's confident words, they were still a little uneasy in their hearts after all, and they still wanted to know why Li Muqi had such confidence. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 infoOnly when they know the result will they put down the big stone hanging in their hearts. They will be like this, just because every normal person will be like this, not because they are timid, but because they are used to seeing the passage of life and know the preciousness of life.
If a person will gamble with his life, it does not mean that he is very brave, it only proves that he does not know the value and meaning of life, and only exposes how ignorant and ridiculous he is.
Li Muqi knew that the generals would definitely come to his big tent, and at this time he sat on the side of the fire, and the dazzling fire flickered, reflecting on Li Muqi's face; The beating flames flashed incessantly on his earnest face; Holding a small scoop in his left hand, he scooped out the boiling water from the stove and put it in the cup on the table next to him. The boiling water violently beat the quiet sleeping leaves in the cup, and was so violently devastated, the curly tea leaves were finally awakened by it, constantly cruising and floating in the boiling water, and finally, the slow boiling water was quietly circling...
The curling water vapor continued to rise, accompanied by the repeated fragrance of tea, and it was not long before Li Muqi's big tent was filled. It was originally a restless heart, but at this time, it was eroded by the fragrance of tea, which slowly defeated the uneasiness, and even made them temporarily forget the uneasiness in their hearts - forget in the slightest fragrance of tea.
Maybe they are not because of the fragrance of tea, but Li Muqi at this moment. Li Muqi's every move at this time seemed to be telling them one thing, giving them a lesson, and telling them the way of the general.
"It's soothing tea." With a sound of surprise, an older general said slowly. Slowly moved to the side of the cup of tea, looked at the leaves fluttering in the water, and said with a happy expression on his face, "Sure enough, it's a soothing tea." ”
When everyone heard this, the uneasiness in their hearts slowly rose, and they wondered why Li Muqi was preparing tea to calm the nerves? Could it be... It was an unimaginable result, and it was also a result that made them panic...
This tranquilizing tea was not prepared for them, but prepared by Han Shishao for Li Muqi. It's just that Li Muqi has always had insomnia recently, and he always wakes up with the joy in his heart and the pain in his head. This tea was originally prepared by him for himself, but he thought that the generals would definitely come here to ask, so he prepared it for them.
Patience, as if it does not belong to young people at all, young people do not seem to have it, they will always be stimulated by anxiety in their hearts, and they will impulsively speak the words in their hearts. However, they are by no means judgmental and are not blinded by impulses. Only one kind of person can do this—the brainless one, who is driven by impulses and forgets to judge.
Just when the generals were sitting at the table and looking at the tea in their hands, a young general couldn't help the anxiety in his heart after all, and it was difficult to control those words in his belly. And his words were as fierce as the tea beating on the table: "General, if you wait for the tea to cool down, I'm afraid that the enemy army has already attacked..."
Li Muqi looked at the young general, and saw the uneasiness and anxiety flickering between his eyebrows; I saw that the eyes of the generals at this time seemed to be looking at the teacup in their hands, but in fact, they had been looking at Li Muqi, and their ears were waiting for Li Muqi to speak. Seeing such a scene, Li Muqi couldn't help but smile and said, "The generals also have words in their hearts, but they don't want to speak first, just wait for the impatient people to speak the words in their hearts for you." Looking at the generals who changed color slightly, Li Muqi said again, "Since this is the case, Ben Shuai will tell the truth and make the generals feel at ease." Turning his gaze, he looked at the young general and said, "Do you know how many men and horses General Qiu has brought?" ”
When the young general heard Li Muqi ask this, he was suddenly stunned, and after thinking about it carefully, he didn't know it, so he had no choice but to shake his head lightly, full of panic, and looked at Li Muqi with uneasy eyes.
Li Muqi received his uneasy gaze and smiled slightly, "It's not the general's fault that the general doesn't know." Seeing him take back the bunch, staring at the teacup in his hand, he said slowly, "There are some things that the fewer people who know, the better." If there are too many people who know, it is inevitable that the enemy will not know. Picking up the tea at hand, he drank it slowly, and continued, "General Qiu brought 10,000 horses, but there were only a few hundreds of people in the big tent at this time. ”
"Anyone else?"
Before Li Muqi could speak, Han Zhongbang had already answered, "I'm afraid that General Qiu has already led them to Qixian at this time." ”
"That's right," Li Muqi looked at Han Zhongbang and said appreciatively, "General Qiu should have arrived in Qixian at this time, and he will definitely conquer Qixian in one fell swoop before noon tomorrow." ”
"It's just..." Han Zhongbang looked at Li Muqi with some puzzlement in his eyes and said, "It's just that if you want to reach Qi County without being known by Ji Ruolan, it's too difficult." ”
There is only one big road between Qixian and Qingzhou, and if you want to cross the trail, it is almost impossible: so many soldiers and horses, if you want to step on that trail, how can you not be discovered?
Ji Ruolan knew that there was a camp and would definitely set up an ambush on the trail to prevent our army from taking Qi County by taking advantage of the trail, and he guessed that our army would not go from the avenue. The avenue will be relaxed. Li Muqi smiled and said, "What's more, Ji Ruolan saw flags planted all over the north mountain of Qingzhou, and the firelight flickered, so he must have thought that our army was looking at Qingzhou, spying on Qingzhou, preparing to attack Qingzhou, and was also thinking about whether the soldiers on the mountain were suspicious; In addition, knowing the light of the fire in the gourd valley at this time, I will definitely be suspicious of my movements, and I am also thinking about whether I should send troops here. Just as he was thinking left and right. General Qiu had already crossed the avenue and taken Qi County directly. He knew that Qixian was lost, and he wanted to send troops to save him, but he was afraid of the soldiers on the mountain; And he will also see the dust drifting on the dense forest in the south of Qingzhou, and he will be even more worried. Just when he was thinking and worried, Qixian could never be saved again, so he had to stick to Qingzhou. ”
"But since Wang Ximin is already in Qingzhou at this time, how can Ji Ruolan not know the number of people and horses in that place?"
"That's because Ji Ruolan doesn't dare to believe Wang Ximin's words."
"Why?"
"Wang Ximin and Ji Ruolan are old friends, and they are both Sima Changming's protégés, Ji Ruolan knows Wang Ximin, and she will definitely want to keep him in Qingzhou, and she has helped him. But Wang Ximin will definitely shirk and refuse to agree. Li Muqi smiled and said, "When Ji Ruolan sees Wang Ximin like this, she must be suspicious in her heart, how can she believe Wang Ximin's words?" ”
"Since Ji Ruolan won't believe Wang Ximin's words, he was only afraid that he would be killed in the city at that time to show military prestige."
"No, he can't either." Looking at the somewhat puzzled looks on the faces of the generals, Li Muqi said, "It's just because of his purpose this time, the motive in his heart, and the notice he posted in Qingzhou City." Just as these words fell, Li Muqi took out an object from his arms and handed it to the generals. The people will see this thing, read it carefully, and they will know why.
Sure enough, as Li Muqi said, at ten o'clock at dawn, a fast horse galloped to the army led by Li Muqi. The man on the horse jumped off his horse, came to Li Muqi's tent, unwrapped the package on his back, handed it to the guard by the door, whispered a few words in their ears, and followed one of the guards to the tent. When he saw Li Muqi, he took the letter in his arms.
Li Muqi took the letter handed by the young general, opened it for a look, and said, "Why do you want to kill the person who guards the general?" ”
"General Hui, just because this person is a great evil person," the man said carefully, "When he came to the city, just because the county official was delayed and treated him slowly, he was scolded; and because the county magistrate advised him not to drink, he was enraged and became furious, and beheaded the county magistrate in front of the case; asked his sergeants to insult the county officials; And when our army attacked Qixian, that man actually tied the people in the city to the head of the city, and drove the people away, wanting to break out. If it weren't for the fact that his war horse stumbled, fell off his horse, and was captured by the people in the city, it would have been almost impossible to capture Qixian. General Qiu entered the city, and when he heard about the county official in the mouths of the people, he saw that this person was so cruel, so he beheaded this person, which has appeased the hearts of the people. ”
"It's disgusting." Li Muqi said hatefully.
The man said, "As far as the soldiers who have surrendered, this person is the brother of Ji Ruolan's concubine, and he will do so because of Ji Ruolan's favor for that concubine." ”
Just when Li Muqi was thinking about how to send this person to Ji Ruolan, Ji Ruolan had already learned that Qi County had been lost, and it was known that the concubine's brother was dead.
Just when Ji Ruolan's heart was shocked and full of anger, she suddenly saw a city defender running in a hurry, and when she heard his words, she was shocked and fell on her chair. Before he could recover from the shock, he suddenly saw another sergeant holding a wooden box in his hand. And on top of that wooden box, there was also a letter attached.
Ji Ruolan slowly opened the letter, read it carefully, couldn't help but be furious, and threw out the wooden box vigorously. The contents of the box rolled down from the box, causing the maids on both sides to startle their faces and let out a frightened scream...
