In the imperial tent, everyone was in good spirits, and their eyes looked at the confident young man in unison. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

The potter's expression was also moved, and his eyes looked for prestige, but he saw that the person who came out of the class was Deng Ai, who had not been in the job for a long time.

His eyes lit up, and a hint of surprise welled up in his heart.

You must know that Deng Aike was the first general in the late period of the Three Kingdoms, using soldiers like a god, full of wisdom, and the strange plan of smuggling through the battle of Yinping is even more famous.

Deng Ai stood up at this time and said that he had a clever plan to break through the Qujiang Pass, and how could he not excite the potter.

"If Shizai has any good plans, let's talk about it and hear about it." The potter couldn't wait to urge.

Deng Ai walked out and stood in front of the huge map hanging on the side of the tent, gesturing, stammering for a while, and speaking fluently for a while, explaining his plan.

In the big tent, these Great Wei civil and military elites, listening to Deng Ai's strategy, their faces gradually became happy and excited, and their eyes even showed a look of impress.

Deng Ai is young after all.

Although the pottery merchant attaches great importance to this newly descended young man, the Wei army, these civil and military generals, and the heroes of the world, have not seen Deng Ai's true strength, and they don't know how many catties and taels he has, and he is a little contemptuous.

Today, Deng Aiyang sprinkled some ideas, although he was a little stuttering like Liu Ji, but the wonder of the strategy was enough to shock the audience, so that everyone was impressed.

Even Liu Ji couldn't stop nodding when he heard this, and said to himself: "This plan is feasible, this plan is feasible." ”

The potter stood in front of the map, stared at the terrain of the mountains and rivers for a long time, looked back at Deng Ai, and asked solemnly: "Deng Shizai, are you sure enough?" ”

Deng Ai Zhengse said: "Your Majesty, the minister has lived in Jiaozhou for a long time, and he is very familiar with the terrain in that area, and it is absolutely feasible for the minister to dare to guarantee with his life." ”

The potter nodded slightly, and looked at Liu Ji, seeking his opinion.

Liu Ji nodded at him, obviously agreeing with Deng Ai's plan.

Liu Banxian agreed, and the potter had even more doubts, so he immediately flicked his hand and said happily: "Okay, since you have the guts, I will give you 10,000 elite soldiers and tell you to achieve this immortal feat." ”

Deng Ai's spirit was greatly shaken, he never thought that the potter would trust him so much, thinking that he had not been surrendered for a long time, the potter not only used his offering, but also dared to put the life and death of 10,000 soldiers in his hands.

For a while, Deng Ai's heart was surging, and he couldn't help but ignite a kind of blood for the death of a confidant.

Without any excuse, he bowed deeply to the potter, and said angrily: "Your Majesty trusts the minister so much, even if the minister fights for his life, he will never let His Majesty down." ”

"Okay, with your words, I can rest assured." The potter nodded with satisfaction, but remembered something, so he shouted: "Where is the time!" ”

In the big tent, no one responded.

At this time, he realized that he was born as a thief and had a humble identity, and it was just that the Son of Heaven could accept him, and it was impossible to reuse it for him.

Therefore, although Shi Qian also participated in the military discussion in the tent, he shrank in the corner with great interest, did not say a word, and kept a low profile to the civil and military personnel, except for Chang Yuchun, he did not realize that there was an extra colleague around him.

Even, even Shi Qian himself didn't expect that the potter would mention his name at such an important moment.

Therefore, Shi Qian didn't react for a while, and was still shrinking there, and the ministers were also looking around, with a blank face, not knowing who this person the Son of Heaven called.

"Your Majesty, are you misremembering, among our big guys, there is no one named Shi Qian." Wei Chigong, who was standing, couldn't help but remind.

The potter ignored him and drank again.

"Shi Qian, Your Majesty is calling your name, what are you still doing stupidly!" Chang Yuchun came back to his senses first, and stretched out his hand to pull a few people away.

Shi Qian suddenly woke up and hurriedly wanted to go out of work.

It's just that he shrank behind the crowd, and there was a bunch of people in front of him, and no one meant his existence, and no one planned to make a way for him.

Shi Qian was also embarrassed to disturb others, so he simply performed light body kung fu, and his body scurried around in the cracks of people like a ghost, and squeezed out of the pile of people in a few clicks.

"The minister moved here." When he came to the time in front of the palace, he hurriedly bowed deeply.

At this time, everyone found out that the Son of Heaven did not call the wrong person's name, and there was really such a person named Shi Qian in the account, but they had never heard of it or seen it.

For a while, everyone's curious and surprised eyes, like spotlights, all shone on Shi Qian's body.

Shi Qian is also accustomed to walking in the dark, and it is the first time he has been noticed by so many people, and it is still on this occasion of the Son of Heaven's military discussion, which naturally makes him feel extremely uncomfortable.

"Shi Qian, haven't you always wanted to kill the Taiping Army and avenge your dead relatives, I will give you this opportunity now." The potter's tone was filled with deep encouragement.

As soon as Shi Qian heard the words "revenge and hatred", all the discomfort immediately dissipated, and his emotions immediately became agitated, and he hurriedly said: "The minister is waiting for this day, if Your Majesty has any orders, just explain, as long as you can kill the Taiping army, even the Shangdao Mountain minister will not blink an eye." ”

"Okay, it's good to have this determination!" The potter nodded with satisfaction, pointed at Deng Ai and said: "Deng Ai's plan is the time to give full play to your special talents, and I order you to be Deng Ai's deputy general and assist him in achieving great achievements." ”

"The minister obeys the order, thank Your Majesty for giving the minister this opportunity, the minister will definitely live up to Your Majesty's trust." Shi Qian excitedly thanked him again and again.

The ministers on the left and right, except for Chang Yuchun, looked dazed and curious, and they couldn't guess what was so outstanding about this newcomer that the Son of Heaven could hand over such a heavy burden to him.

"It's time not to be ado, you two should prepare early, let's leave tonight." The potter had a confident expression on his face and waved his hand at them.

Deng Ai and Shi Qian both bowed goodbye and retreated.

The two of them left to retire, Ma Chao stood up and questioned: "Your Majesty, although Deng Ai's plan is wonderful, but in the end the risk is also quite large, this Deng Ai is so young, the minister is only afraid that he will not be able to take on this important responsibility, and he has not been new for a long time, he is not trustworthy, he has not been tested, and the time has changed, and the thief's eyebrows and rat eyes seem to be nothing extraordinary, Your Majesty will hand over such a heavy burden to these two people, the minister is honest, it is really a little uneasy." ”

At this time, Xiang Yu had already claimed that he had comprehended and needed to concentrate on cultivating martial arts in order to launch an impact on the realm of the mid-stage martial saint, so during the Battle of Linxiang, the pottery merchant had allowed him to withdraw from the ranks of the Southern Expedition and concentrate on cultivation.

In this big tent, Ma Chao, who has the strength of a half-step martial saint, commands the Xiliang Shield Cavalry Legion, coupled with the identity of his relatives, makes him the military general with the highest status in this tent.

Therefore, Ma Chao's questioning is naturally quite weighty, and many generals also nodded slightly, expressing their agreement.

The potter smiled faintly and said meaningfully: "My ability to recognize people, when you miss it, don't worry, you just sit and wait for Deng Ai and Shi Qian to create a miracle." ”

……

Ten days later, Nanhai County (most of present-day Guangdong), Sihui City.

At the head of the city, the battle flag of the Great Wei has been erected high above the city tower.

From the city gate to the streets of the city, this already dilapidated small city was poisoned by the flames of war, and nearly a thousand Taiping soldiers with low combat effectiveness were killed cleanly, and the city was full of corpses.

Deng Ai stood on the city gate, watching his more than 10,000 tired soldiers happily enter the city, but the young man's face did not have much joy of victory, and his face was still solemn.

"The order went down and told the soldiers to scavenge all the things that could be eaten in the city, rest for two hours, and set out immediately before dark." Deng Ai ordered in a solemn tone.

Shi Qian next to him looked moved, and said with a smile: "I said General Deng, we walked in the mountains for more than ten days in a row, and it was easy to cross the Wuling, and it was not easy to take such a small city, so I also let the brothers rest for a day, take a breath, eat a hot meal, and recuperate enough to set off again, are you too anxious." ”

Deng Ai's eyes glanced to the southeast, and said in a solemn tone: "We captured this city, which is equivalent to exposing our whereabouts, I believe that the news will soon spread to Panyu City, you don't know, that Panyu defender is quite capable, I am afraid that he has already prepared, and when the time comes, we will not attack the city, and we will miss the big thing." ”

Crossing the five ridges and attacking Panyu City, this is the clever plan offered by Deng Ai.

Qujiang Pass is the northern gateway of Nanhai County, and Panyu (now Guangzhou), the seat of governance, is the core of Nanhai County, and the money and grain wealth of a county must be transported to Qujiang Pass by Panyu City through Qinshui to the north.

Isn't your Qujiang Pass impregnable, but no matter how strong you are and how crazy the Taiping army is, your tens of thousands of mouths will have to be fed by the grain and grass transported from the rear.

Deng Ai's plan was to lead a group of elite soldiers and light troops, take the rugged mountain road to bypass Qujiang Pass, go deep behind the enemy, and capture Panyu City by surprise.

If Panyu is a moment, the supply of grain and grass to Qujiang Pass will be cut off, no matter how strong the city is, no matter how fanatical the Taiping army is, and no matter how capable Yang Xiuqing is, he will be defeated without a fight.

Deng Ai has lived in Nanhai County for a long time, and has traveled back and forth between Guiyang and Nanhai County many times over the years, in order to avoid the customs clearance inspection of the Wei army, most of the time he has to take mountain roads and trails, and he is very familiar with the terrain between the five mountains.

The familiarity with the terrain is exactly what Deng Ai relied on to dare to offer this plan to smuggle across the five mountains.

It's just that one of the keys to Deng Ai's plan is that after crossing the five mountains, if you want to attack Panyu City, you must pass through this small city of Sihui, and only by breaking through this city can you go straight to Panyu.

And once the city is attacked, Deng Ai and his surprise army will inevitably be exposed, causing the Taiping army to be aware of it.

And that Nanhai is too guarded by Ma Liang, and he is a very capable person, Deng Ai is worried that he will be on guard and strengthen the military affairs of Panyu City, and his plan will be in danger of being shattered at that time.

You must know that his army of soldiers and horses did not bring much grain and grass, if he could not quickly break through Panyu City, the grain and grass would be cut off, and he would starve to death in the hinterland of Nanhai County if he did not wait for the Taiping army to come to besiege and kill.

Therefore, Deng Ai didn't dare to have the slightest respite, broke through Sihui City, and went straight to Panyu City without waiting for a break.

Shi Qian is just a curious question, Deng Ai, as the main general, of course he does not dare to question the decisions he makes, and he can only implement them according to orders.

So, this 10,000 hungry and tired surprise attack army just gobbled up a few mouthfuls of food, dozed off a few times, and then set off again under the urging of Deng Ai.

"Ma Liang, I hope you'd better be defenseless......" Deng Ai secretly breathed a deep sigh, whipped his horse, and galloped out of the city gate, followed by the army behind him.

Target, Panyu!
