Chapter 479: Borrowing a knife to kill
Nangong Jinliang led the army to ambush the Xiliang army halfway, and by surprise, the other party fled in the wilderness.
Nangong Jinliang was naturally overjoyed, and led the army to pursue the victory, chasing the Xiliang army out of Sanli and chasing it to a canyon where rocks were piled up.
The terrain of the canyon is not as dangerous as that of the Central Plains of Chang'an, but the entrance is narrow and presents a bottleneck.
At the mouth of the canyon, with armor scattered all over the place, and dozens of war horses, the enemy seemed to have fled in a hurry.
As the saying goes, the poor don't chase after it, not to mention, there are obvious hidden dangers in the terrain here. If the army enters, the other party will seal the mouth of the canyon with rolling stones, and the Chang'an army will not be able to enter the rescue, and the other party can catch the turtle in the urn and annihilate Gu Mozhi and others in the canyon.
Shen Yan was at the front, and immediately pulled the reins of his horse, paused, and hesitated.
Gu Mozhi stepped forward immediately, and Shen Yan told Gu Mozhi about his concerns: "The people of Xiliang did not evacuate to the camp, but fled to this desolate place, and lost their armor, which is a bit of a suspicion of deliberate contrivance. For the sake of prudence, the last general still felt that he was poor and could not chase. ”
Gu Mozhi thought about it and agreed with Shen Yan's concerns very much, and as soon as the two of them combined, they immediately ordered the soldiers to stay put.
Nangong Jin Liang saw that the army was stagnant and ordered someone to come to inquire about the situation, so he immediately became furious, personally rushed to the front of the team with a horse, and asked Gu Mozhi with a fierce attitude why he disobeyed the military order.
Gu Mozhi and Shen Yan informed Nangong Jinliang of their analysis, not wanting the soldiers to go on an adventure.
Nangong Jin Liang commanded the army to win the battle, and it was the time to be proud, so he naturally wanted to take advantage of the victory to pursue and deal a heavy blow to the Xiliang army.
Seeing that the deserters are about to be annihilated in one fell swoop, how can they give up?
He smiled disdainfully: "I was afraid of wolves in the front, and I was afraid of tigers in the back, if my Chang'an army was as greedy for life and fear of death as you, what kind of battle would I fight, I would directly abandon my weapons and surrender." ”
Gu Mozhi is neither humble nor arrogant: "The last general is definitely not greedy for life and afraid of death, but he just doesn't want the brothers to make fearless sacrifices." ”
Nangong Jin Liang rode on a horse, raised his eyes to look at the canyon, and snorted disdainfully: "Look at the mouth of the canyon, full of armor discarded by the enemy, and more than ten war horses, it can be seen from this clue that the enemy army is fleeing in a hurry." How can there be an ambush? Don't make excuses for your timidity. ”
Gu Mozhi explained: "Xiliang's retreat, according to common sense, should be a detour back to the Xiliang camp, but they fled in this direction, contrary to the other, which was originally a suspicion.
The terrain here is the most conducive place for the enemy to set up ambushes, and the top of the mountain is lush with vegetation, which is conducive to hiding the figure, and it is not wise to pursue it rashly. ”
Nangong Jin Liang pointed the long sword in his hand directly at Gu Mozhi: "This marshal orders you to immediately lead your troops to pursue the enemy army, there must be no mistake! Otherwise, there will be no forgiveness for killing!"
Gu Mo was a little embarrassed for a while: "Please think twice, Marshal." ”
Nangong Jin Liang was annoyed and ashamed: "Fleeing from the battle, you are still alarmist, bewitching the hearts of the army, Gu Mozhi, are you disobeying the orders of the commander?"
For a while, the tension was tense, and the atmosphere suddenly became dull.
Shen Yan saw that the situation was not good, gritted his teeth, and stepped forward to arch his hand: "Marshal Qiyu, General Gu's concerns are not unreasonable. To be on the safe side, the last general was willing to lead fifty men to explore the road to ensure that there was no ambush before the army entered the canyon.
The two were at a stalemate at this time, Nangong Jin Liang also felt that he had no face, so Shen Yan recommended himself, which undoubtedly gave him a step.
Immediately, he reluctantly nodded and agreed: "That's fine, you will lead the people to find out the truth." If there is no ambush, Gu Zongbing, this sin of delaying the fighter, this commander thinks you should know. ”
Gu Mozhi naturally didn't want Shen Yan to take the risk, but it was better than these many brothers going to die together. He took the initiative to ask: "The last general is willing to go with Vice General Shen." ”
Nangong Jin Liang sneered: "Do you want to use this to escape?" Gu Mozhi, you can wait here to be slapped in the face with peace of mind." ”
At that moment, Shen Yan immediately counted fifty soldiers, abandoned his war horse, and went to investigate.
Nangong Jin Liang and Gu Mozhi waited in place, and after a while, Shen Yan climbed halfway up the canyon and made a passable gain towards the army.
There is no ambush here.
Nangong Jin Liang smiled proudly and waved his hand to signal the soldiers to enter the canyon to pursue, but unfortunately the Xiliang army had already fled and disappeared.
The army had to withdraw the same way.
The corners of Nangong Jinliang's lips pursed a smug look, he rode on the horse, and looked at Gu Mozhi condescendingly: "Are you guilty?"
Gu Mozhi hoped that there would be no ambush in the canyon and that Shen Yan and the others would be safe and sound, but he also paradoxically hoped that his guess could be confirmed.
Now, there is no ambush, it can be seen that he is too worried, and in front of Nangong Jinliang, he has nothing to say.
can only silently kneel on one knee: "The last general will be convicted." ”
Nangong Jinliang sneered: "It's good to know the crime, there is no need for the commander to say more, come on, take off the battle armor of General Gu, collect the weapons, escort them back to Wolong Pass, and deal with them by military law to set an example." ”
Behind him, his own soldiers swarmed up.
The Gu family warriors, Jiang Biao and others wanted to stop them, but unfortunately the division was unknown and was stopped by Shen Yan.
Nangong Jin Liang wished that he could take advantage of the topic to play and wipe out all Gu Mozhi's people.
If the people are willful, they will fall into his hands.
The army withdrew to Wolong Pass, Shen Yan did not dare to delay, and immediately went to the General Military Mansion to report to Hua Qianshu and the head of the Gu family.
When the head of the Gu family heard this, he was furious: "I have long known that Nangong Jinliang, a villain, has long been thinking about wanting to put Mo Zhi to death, how can this be true!"
Hua Qianshu was also stunned when he heard this, originally thought that Nangong Jinliang must be going to borrow a knife to kill people, and it was difficult for Gu Mozhi to borrow the hands of Xiliang people, but he didn't expect that he would just be given such a good opportunity. can not only justifiably embarrass Gu Mozhi, but also ruin Gu Mozhi's image and status in the hearts of the people of Wolongguan.
I am afraid that this matter is another discordant plan of Ginger. He prepared an ambush in advance and invited you into the urn. If Gu Mozhi led the army to break in, he would act according to the plan and encircle and annihilate the Chang'an Vanguard Army. And Gu Mozhi didn't fall for the plan, so he immediately decided to withdraw his troops immediately, leaving an empty city plan, so that Gu Mozhi had nothing to say in front of Nangong Jinliang.
The relationship between the two, Jin Geer should have known for a long time, this is a clever way to kill people with a knife, and use Nangong Jin Liang to get rid of Gu Mozhi.
Ginger is really insidious and cunning.
Hua Qianshu guessed in his heart, which coincided with Shen Yan.
The point is what to do now?
If the villain of Nangong Jinliang wanted to kill Gu Mozhi with this, it was not impossible.
And this excuse is above board, and no one can refute it. If they dare to say the word "no", Nangong Jinliang can also be punished accordingly.
