Chapter 23: The Seizure of Power

Xu Huang retreated very decisively, although Chen Mo ordered someone to pursue, but Xu Huang had already ordered someone to notify Yang Ping to come to help, bypassing Xu Huang's defeated army to attack Chen Mo, Chen Mo saw this and had to Mingjin to withdraw his troops, but that Yang Ping was stubborn, even if Xu Huang's side had safely started Mingjin, Yang Ping ignored it and kept chasing Chen Mo's soldiers and horses.

"Lord, the last general is going to fight!" Dian Wei saw the nest fire, obviously he had already won, who was this later person? The police are still fighting? How did Xu Huang get under the throne? At the moment, he asked Chen Mo for his life.

"Okay, you have a group of men and horses to assist our army back to the camp, but remember, you can't fight, just keep the army back to the camp." Chen Mo looked at this chasing army, his eyes lit up, and he smiled while groping his chin.

"For ......" Dian Wei saw Chen Mo's eyes glancing over, sighed, and said silently: "The last general will take the order!" ”

At that moment, he took the men and horses out of the camp and escorted the army back to the camp, but Yang Ping wanted to chase again, but was forced to retreat by the arrows shot in the camp, so he slowly withdrew his troops and retreated.

"Lord, why didn't you let me behead that thief?" Dian Wei came back, a little indignant, just look at the formation, then Yang Ping is not a good material to lead troops, although Dian Wei is not a master in this regard, but after following Chen Mo for so long, as long as there is a chance, Chen Mo will explain to the generals the intentions of the place, how to see the level of the other party through the opponent's military formation, and what level the generals who pursued later, Dian Wei knew in his heart.

Chen Mo waved his hand, signaling him to be calm for a while, and then looked at Cheng Fang and the other generals and said, "Do you know who the general who intercepted our army later?" ”

A general said uncertainly: "It seems to be Yang Ping, the younger brother of the Yang Feng clan, this person is mediocre in ability, not a strong general." ”

Most of the generals under Chen Mo's current account are former white wave thieves, and they naturally know better than Chen Mo about the generals under Yang Feng's command.

"Yang Ping?" Chen Mo nodded and said: "I've heard of this person, Brother Yang Feng, his ability can't be said to be mediocre, it's just not as good as Xu Huang, but today, although Xu Huang is the main general, this person doesn't seem to be convinced!" ”

"The lord doesn't know." Cheng Fang smiled and said: "Yang Ping is the younger brother of Yang Feng, before Yang Feng enabled Xu Huang, he had always been the most powerful general under Yang Feng, and later after recruiting Xu Huang, Yang Ping's military power was constantly weakened. ”

Dian Wei frowned when he heard this: "It doesn't make sense, since Yang Ping is a clan brother and a cronie, even if Xu Huang has the ability, he shouldn't let Xu Huang overpower him." ”

This is common sense, don't talk about using people as relatives, those in power still prefer to use cronies.

"That means that this Yang Ping has committed a taboo." Chen Mo smiled: "And Xu Huang does have the ability, but now that Yang Ping is his deputy general, it is enough to show that Yang Feng is now suspicious of Xu Huang." ”

It's rare for Dian Wei to see the key things, Chen Mo is very relieved in his heart, he didn't teach in vain, and thought about it: "To win this battle, the key is still in this Yang Ping." ”

"Lord!" Bao Geng came in from outside the tent, saluted Chen Mo, and said solemnly: "There are soldiers and horses from Pingtao County on the other side of the river, and it seems that Pingtao County has already voted for Yang Feng." ”

"It's okay, break Xu Huang first, break Xu Huang as soon as you break it, Pingtao County is not afraid of this fashion!" Chen Mo nodded, if it was before, this situation was not good for him, but now, seeing that there is an opportunity to break the enemy, as long as Xu Huang's team is broken, then Yang Feng's strategy to surround the three and one will fail.

"But the lord has a plan?" Hearing this, Dian Wei and the others brightened their eyes and said, Chen Mo's wedding is imminent, but there is no time to delay here.

"Sort of." Chen Mo nodded and said: "Yang Ping won this battle and Xu Huang was defeated, Xu Huang's prestige in the army will inevitably be frustrated, you remember, in the next few days, if we meet Xu Huang, we will see the move and compete with him, but when we meet Yang Ping, we will retreat, if you really can't avoid it, fight with this person, you will not be allowed to win!" ”

"How can anyone deliberately defeat a battle?" Dian Wei was speechless when he heard this.

"That's because you don't read much, and you read more military books on weekdays, which is called fraud." Chen Mo glared at Dian Wei and said.

Dian Wei shut up instantly when he heard this, it is impossible to read, and the painful experience of copying books last time was definitely the most tragic moment in his life.

"Does the lord want to help Yang Ping establish his prestige and overpower Xu Huang?" Cui Geng, who had just come back, said with a smile.

"Not bad." Chen Mo nodded and said: "Two times in a row, our army can win against Xu Huang, all by skill, but it is not a long-term plan, our army is not aligned, although the strength is united, if you reluctantly start a war, it is a victory and a miserable victory, if you fight normally, with the morale of our army now, I am afraid the best ending is to retreat to Jingling, but the commander of Xu Huang's army is not compatible, but let our army have the possibility of defeating Xu Huang, as long as Yang Ping overwhelms Xu Huang, it is best to squeeze Xu Huang out of the barracks, then this battle will be won!" ”

Yang Ping is much worse than Xu Huang, no matter what, Xu Huang's side has already sounded gold on the battlefield today, but Yang Ping still doesn't listen to orders, just this point, this person lacks a lot in the overall situation, not to mention that even Dian Wei can see that Yang Ping is scattered with troops, and he is not as good as Xu Huang can order and prohibit.

When the generals heard this, they received orders one after another and returned to their camps.

……

On the other side, Xu Huang's camp, looking at Yang Ping who had returned triumphantly, Xu Huang's face sank like water: "Yang Ping, why didn't Mingjin retreat?" ”

"Why do you want to retreat?" Yang Ping looked at Xu Huang with some disdain and said: "I thought you had some ability, and you didn't want to lose in a row, if it wasn't for my timely rescue today, you would have been broken by Chen Mo, then Chen Mo's command is just a group of rabble who have just surrendered, and they will be defeated with one blow, but you have been defeated by such a rabble twice, it seems that the ability of General Gongming is nothing more than that." ”

"Take it!" Xu Huang's face was even more gloomy, not because of Yang Ping's words, but what Yang Ping revealed, this is to seize power, two battles, no one knows Chen Mo's ability better than Xu Huang, Yang Ping can come back safely now, not because Yang Ping has much ability, but Chen Mo has seen his weakness and deliberately let Yang Ping come back, so Yang Ping must take it now!

"Who dare!?" Yang Ping took out a tiger talisman from his arms and looked at everyone coldly: "Do you recognize this?" ”

Xu Huang got up suddenly, looked at the tiger talisman in Yang Ping's hand, his face became even more ugly, this is Yang Feng's self-made tiger talisman, as soon as the tiger talisman comes out, it is second only to Yang Feng in Yang Feng's army, and generally even the leading generals will not give it easily, Xu Huang does not have it in his hand, but now it appears in Yang Ping's hands, and it is not difficult to guess that Yang Feng has been guarding himself from the beginning!

Looking at Xu Huang's face, Yang Ping sneered: "The lord is really worried about it, and he still wants to take me?" ”

After speaking, he looked at the generals and said: "Xu Huang has no way to command the army, and he has been defeated again and again, from this moment on, on the order of the lord, I am the vanguard commander, Xu Huang assists him, do you have any objections?" ”

The generals looked at each other when they heard this, and after hesitating for a moment, someone got up and bowed to Yang Ping and said, "The last general will see the general!" ”

If it was before the battle, with Xu Huang's military might, even if Yang Ping had a tiger talisman in his hand, he might not be able to seize power, but now, Xu Huang was defeated by Chen Mo in a row, and Yang Ping made a contribution in the first battle, and the trust of the generals in Xu Huang naturally decreased.

"Brother Gongming, this is the order of the lord!" Yang Ping looked at Xu Huang and said with a smile of pride in his smile: "Could it be that Brother Gongming wants to disobey his orders?" ”

Xu Huang took a deep breath and sighed: "The last general will take the order!" ”

"Immediately give that Chen Mo a war letter, and I will compete with him tomorrow!" Yang Ping smiled proudly: "Let Brother Gongming know how to fight this battle!" ”

Xu Huang only felt that a stone was blocked in his chest, and he saluted silently: "The last general feels unwell, go back to the camp to rest first." ”

"Don't forget to go with me tomorrow!" Yang Ping looked at Xu Huang's appearance, was in a happy mood, and laughed.

Xu Huang paused, nodded silently, and said, "Don't worry, the general will go." ”

……

Before the sky was completely dark, Chen Mo received Yang Ping's battle letter, although he thought that Yang Ping would take the opportunity to seize power, and even prepared to lose a few games to lure Yang Ping to seize power, but he didn't expect it to be so soon.

"Lord, will there be fraud?" The generals were summoned again, looking at the battle letter sent by Yang Ping, Cui Geng was puzzled, he was worried that this was Xu Huang's plan, and on the surface, he planned to let Yang Ye lead the troops, but in fact, it was to lure Chen Mo to send troops.

"Probably not." Chen Mo shook his head and said: "Unless he has long thought that he will lose today and let Yang Ping cheat and not obey orders, otherwise Xu Huang has this intention, then Yang Ping may not cooperate." ”

"Then this war book ......" Cui Geng stepped forward and handed the war book back to Chen Mo.

"Naturally, if you fight, how can you win the war, leave 2,000 soldiers to guard the camp, and the rest of the soldiers will go with me." Chen Mo smiled and nodded, it is basically certain that Yang Ping has seized power, Chen Mo also deliberately looked at the change in luck, in this case, there is a risk of being overturned, and it is worth a try, of course, the back hand still has to be done.

"Send someone and send him a reply letter saying that he will fight after the morning eclipse." Chen Mo said with a smile: "The generals go back and give orders to the battalions, and I will wait for noon to fight." ”

"This ......" Cui Geng was stunned for a moment, looked at Chen Mo and said: "Lord, if this is a letter of war, if it is a violation of the promise......

If Chen Mo should not, then how to fight is Chen Mo's business, if he answers the war letter but breaks his promise, this will damage Chen Mo's reputation.

"I only said that after the morning meal, noon is also after the morning meal, when will the promise be broken?" Chen Mo asked rhetorically.

When Cui Geng followed Chen Mo for a long time, he understood Chen Mo's reply in seconds, smiled and nodded: "The last general understands, so I will send someone to return the book!" ”

The generals in the tent looked at each other, can this battle still be fought like this?

Dian Wei couldn't help but say: "Lord, you are too ......"

It doesn't seem to be in line with his position to say that he is insidious and cunning, but why is it a little itchy to look at Chen Mo's smiling face?

"Is it wrong to fight a war to fight the enemy as much as possible while protecting yourself?" Chen Mo asked rhetorically.

"That's right~" Dian Wei sighed: "The last general is just a little distressed about that Yang Ping." ”

"Then help him write a memorial text." Chen Mo got up and smiled.

"Somehow, I suddenly felt that this person should be damned!" Dian Wei said solemnly.

"Hahaha~"

The solemn atmosphere in the tent suddenly became joyful.
