Chapter 35: That Night
Back to the ministry, command the embassy's mansion
The woman in the red gauze has been captured, and there was no more fighting during this period, because she chose to surrender directly in the face of multiple interceptions.
Wang Li looked at the red-gauze woman who was tied up and asked, "Say, how many people have you come this time?" When to get your hands on? ”
The red-gauze woman snorted arrogantly: "Didn't you say you guessed it?" Of course, it's already started! ”
In fact, the red gauze woman was not afraid to tell Wang Li, because the commander's mansion was more than half an hour away from the Qin army camp, and this was still when there was a guide during the day.
It was already night, and Wang Li immediately hurried back, afraid that it would be too late.
Zhao Cheng was obviously worried here, frowned and asked, "General, what should we do?" Zang Shuo's side? ”
Wang Li looked at Zhao Cheng's appearance, and felt a little guilty in his heart, because the matter was urgent, and his plan was actually only notified to a dozen people led by Zang Shuo.
Wang Li then explained to everyone: "Actually, our army scouts have already discovered that they are mixed in with the prisoners of the Liukou and the herdsmen of the Hui tribe.
However, I did not grasp their purpose for a while, so I chose to wait and see until the Commander Ma invited me to the banquet, and I guess it was a perfect opportunity.
I don't know what the rogue thinks, but I can give him the opportunity to do what I want, and that's why I'm here.
If she hadn't lied, I'd have fallen into my trap by now. ”
Mali also asked: "What about Li Guo and others?" Just let them go? ”
Wang Li didn't answer immediately, but stared at the red gauze girl and smiled slightly: "Of course not, so the three people who were left by them are all fake, otherwise why should I give them a hood?" ”
When the red gauze girl heard this, her face changed greatly, and her frustration was visible to the naked eye. At this time, Wang Li also stepped forward, ripped off her veil and said:
"If I'm not mistaken, you are Li Yan's wife, the female bandit Wang Hongniang who doesn't let her eyebrows go, right? Your Majesty has praised you so much!
Today, I can see that it is really heroic, but this resourcefulness is far inferior to Li Gongzi, otherwise he would not have been able to save his husband and catch himself! ”
The red lady's pretty face was angry, and her two big eyes glared at Wang Li and said: "If you want to kill, you have to listen to the respect, don't want to use me as a bargaining chip!" ”
After listening to this, Wang Li thought to himself: Feelings are to be killed or chopped is the special language of their organization, why is it that anyone who is arrested is this sentence?
"What qualifications do the prisoners have to make, but the general doesn't like to beat mandarin ducks with sticks, you should go to the capital with your husband to ask the king for guilt, and listen to Your Majesty's fate." Wang Li said angrily.
Don't look at the red lady who looked like she was going to be generous and righteous just now, but when she heard Wang Li say that she could see her husband, she felt that it was worth it even if she died together.
So although she still stared at everyone, looking like she was about to burst out and kill at any time, the line of defense in her heart had collapsed, after all, for the red lady, her husband Li Yan was everything to her.
Wang Li saw her like this and knew that he couldn't ask anything, so he waved his hand and motioned for his subordinates to take her down, and at the same time turned to Mali and hugged his fist:
"Commander Ma, I have offended a lot of things today, blame me for borrowing a precious place to set up a bureau but not notifying you, I'm embarrassed if it's urgent."
Originally, Mali didn't mean to blame Wang Li, and Wang Li was so polite, Mali could only salute in the same way:
"How dare you, if it weren't for the general's plan today, we are afraid that we will not even be able to find out the spies, and I am afraid that it will only cause a catastrophe.
It's just that if the rogues really attack the camp as they intended, can they really hold it if they are not in the barracks? ”
Mali's words were very worried, and it seemed that he, like Zhao Cheng, was not very optimistic about this battle, because there were always a few timid people who could reveal some rogue news.
Therefore, Mali and Zhao Cheng generally believed that there were at least 5,000 Liukou, more than 10,000, while the Qin army had less than 1,000 people.
Although there are also 2,000 people in the Hui Division, they are far from being an army in terms of combat effectiveness or assembly speed, and they cannot help at all in this situation.
Wang Li raised his head and smiled: "If they fight with our army in the White Heaven Hall, I am still afraid of him, and while we are not attacking at night, it will be a dead end!" ”
Although Wang Li looked confident, everyone was still suspicious, and then many people began to talk to each other, at this time Wang Li raised his hand and said:
"If you don't believe it, you can gather some of the elite and march slowly with this general, and you will naturally see the difference when you arrive at the camp."
Everyone looked at Mali, and Mali hesitated slightly: "The old man believes that General Wang Li will not be untargeted, everyone hurry up to gather manpower, not quantity but quality, let the young men go home to watch the door!" ”
With Mali's orders, the Hui people also left with their fists in their fists and went back to call people, but fortunately, this banquet was also a big release of grain from the Hui Ministry, so most of the tribes were concentrated nearby.
After everyone left, Wang Li saluted Mali and said, "Commander Ma, now that the moon is dark and the wind is high, and you are old, I think it is better to sit in the mansion and let Mark go with me." ”
Although Mali is not outstanding in strategy, he still has a political level, so he understands it at once.
Wang Li felt that he had too much say in the Hui Ministry, and if he went to the battlefield, it would be difficult for Wang Li to easily command those Hui nobles.
Mali naturally knew how to advance and retreat, and then said with a smile: "Indeed, thank you General Wang for your concern, let Mark go." ”
Saying that, Mali waved his hand again, called Mark to him, and said seriously: "Mark, General Wang is a famous general, you must listen more, watch more and talk less when you go this time, and follow along and learn!" ”
Mark couldn't bear it anymore, and nodded excitedly and agreed: "Father, don't worry, my son will definitely listen to General Wang." ”
Wang Li also stepped forward and patted Mark on the shoulder cordially, and said to the soldiers and Zhao Cheng: "Hurry up and prepare to go back, and we will set off as soon as the people arrive!" ”
"Hey!" Everyone hurriedly agreed.
While everyone was preparing, Wang Li suddenly felt excited, as if he remembered something, looked around, and finally found his goal.
It turned out to be Ai Li who was standing in the corner, Wang Li walked two steps to her side, and saluted respectfully: "Girl, thank you for your help just now." ”
Although Wang Li behaved in a proper manner, he walked up to Ellie, and Ellie didn't dare to look at him, so she could only blush and lower her head, and her two fingers moved like flowers.
"Girl?" Wang Li saw that Ai Li didn't answer him, and thought that the other party didn't hear clearly, or didn't understand Zhuxia dialect? So I asked a second time.
"Ahh......h You're welcome...... No, it should be the forgiveness of the little woman, General Xie. Although Ellie had used an inaudible voice, she still spoke with a slurred voice.
Wang Li felt inexplicably funny when he saw her like this, but now that he was in military affairs, it was inconvenient to talk more, so he directly untied the jade pendant on his body and handed it to Ai Lidao:
"Girl, I still want to thank you, but I didn't bring any money with me when I left for the banquet, this jade pendant is worth a little money, you can take it now."
When Ai Li saw that he gave her the jade pendant, she was even more panicked, if she didn't accept her, she was afraid that Wang Li would be angry, and if she accepted her, she was afraid that Wang Li would think that she was greedy for money, so Ai Li was very entangled, and she didn't dare to reach out to take it.
At this time, someone came out to relieve the siege, and Mark, who had just assembled the elite private soldiers of the Ma family, happened to see this scene, he was not like Mali who couldn't recognize Elle for a long time, so he hurriedly stepped forward and said:
"Since it's a reward from General Wang Li, you can accept it, and you must keep it well!"
As soon as Ai Li heard that it was the second brother who was matchmaking him, she immediately responded: "Yes, son, thank you General Wang for the reward." ”
After speaking, Ai Li hurriedly stretched out her hand and grabbed the jade pendant in her hand, and her heart was as sweet as honey.
And Wang Li didn't expect Elle's hand to be so fast, so he didn't react, but his palm was scratched by Elle's nails, although it didn't hurt, there was a peculiar tingling feeling.
At this time, Mark interjected: "General Wang, our troops are almost assembled, why don't we go?" ”
"Take care, girl." Wang Li clasped his fists at Ellie, then turned his head and ordered: "Go!" ”
The night has only just begun.
