Chapter 40 Poisonous Schemes to Secure the World

There is finally news in the direction of Jincheng.

Jiang Zheng did a very good thing, he almost razed Jincheng to the ground.

The catapult in Liu Yunjun's army is no longer an ordinary catapult, and now it uses boulders filled with black powder.

And Jiang Zheng, this kid, is really willing, strong crossbow pressure array, ten thousand arrows at once, and then he will use a catapult to smash the city without his life.

The thick city wall of Jinchengguan was smashed open by him.

Then the army entered the city, not to attack the city, but to grab food.

After plundering the Golden City, the army immediately turned south.

The attack was too fierce and too fast, and Han Sui didn't even react.

By the time he divided his troops to chase after him, he was gone.

Looking at the news sent by the secret agent, Liu Yunle didn't close his mouth for a long time, damn it, there was finally food.

Jiang Zheng took advantage of the chaos with this hand, and the fish in troubled waters was still quite beautiful, which was quite characteristic of Liu Yun.

"My lord, now I can finally rest assured." Wang Zhi said to Liu Yun with a smile.

Liu Yun smiled faintly and said, "It's only a temporary relief, compared with other separatist forces, we are still poor." Located in the northwest borderland, there is not enough property, which is also a last resort. ”

Wang Zhi took off his helmet, touched the sweat on his forehead, and said to Liu Yun: "The lord may form a caravan and go to Guanzhong, Kanto, Bashu and other places to exchange ironware, paper silk, salt, and sweaters for food. Exchange the abundance of mine for the abundance of others, and communicate with each other. ”

Liu Yun shook his head and said, "This is indeed a way, but it's too slow. Nowadays, Hanyang has the largest population in Liangzhou, and the number of soldiers has doubled, and it is difficult to solve the current problem in a short period of time by relying on caravans. Caravans, though, should really be formed. ”

"Then I'm afraid the only way to rob it!" Wang Zhi smiled and said.

Robbery, this is his old job.

"In the land of Kyushu, I think it's still very good to be a group of robbers who make the Shi clan fearful. Today, let's snatch Ma Teng first. Liu Yun smiled evilly and said.

Wang Zhi looked sideways at Liu Yun's delicate face and nodded secretly.

is worthy of his true master, and this behavior is too much in line with his heart's wishes.

It's just that Ma Teng is not an ally now? Do you want to rob him?

"General, enemy scouts have been spotted ahead."

The scout's report interrupted Wang Zhi, wanting to find out what Liu Yun was thinking.

Wang Zhi just felt that he should prepare in advance for the robbery of Ma Teng, and I am afraid that it will be a little late at this time.

"Have you discovered the movements of Han Sui's army?" Wang Zhi asked.

The scout bowed and said, "Fight under the city of Didao!" ”

"What is the handsome flag?" Wang Zhi asked in a deep voice.

The scout replied: "Write horses!" ”

"Horses?" Liu Yun sighed lightly and said, "Of the eight generals under Han Sui, only one of them is surnamed Ma, so there is no doubt that Ma is playing." ”

Wang Zhi nodded and said: "Han Sui should hate the lord to the bone, whether it is personal force or the ability to arrange troops, this horse play is the last among the eight generals. The first of these eight generals has been cut by the lord. ”

"You mean Liang Xing? It was blown up by you, not cut by me. Liu Yun corrected.

If he had the strength to cut Liang Xing, he wouldn't have to be protected by these people like cubs in the last side in the war.

Wang Zhi smiled and said: "But he was defeated in the hands of the lord after all!" ”

"So even Yuan Shao sent someone, but who knows, I'm just opportunistic. Of course, luck is also part of strength. Liu Yun pouted and said.

In this era, the carriage and horses were slow, but the flow of information from the upper echelons was not slow.

According to Hanyang, Liu Yun's name should now be known to the world.

Wang Zhi didn't dare to agree with Liu Yun's words, he didn't think it was luck.

The weapon that can break the mountains and rivers should only be possessed by the lord in this world, and this is strength.

"Lord, the horse scouts have discovered us, when will we attack?" Wang Zhi got down to business and asked.

Liu Yun rode up to the top of the mountain and looked at the Didao City located on the ancient riverbed from afar.

The ravines and mountains blocked the view, and Liu Yun could only barely see a little.

The dense crowd of people, looking from afar, looks like ants.

Compared with these mountains and rivers, people are small after all, and only life is great.

Stretched out his hand and grabbed a handful of the cold wind in the mountains, and after Wang Zhi followed, Liu Yun said, "Wait first!" ”

"Wait?" Wang Zhi's thick eyebrows squeezed together, and he asked strangely.

Liu Yun said: "We are here, and what we give to the horse is a threat. Their scouts had discovered us, but it should have been difficult to determine how many of our men and horses were, and Gaixun's men had reached a distance of twenty miles east of Didao. ”

Wang Zhi finally understood and said, "Is the lord planning to force the horse to make a move? ”

"If I don't force him, he will definitely do something, such as dividing troops and refusing to do it!" Liu Yun said with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth.

Wang Zhi understood what Liu Yun meant, and when he moved, his original form was revealed, and when he was quiet, he was unclear.

Four thousand cavalry were stationed here to watch, and Ma Yu only knew that Ma Teng's reinforcements had arrived, but he didn't know how many people there were.

But if these 4,000 soldiers and horses are killed, everything will be clear.

Ma Wan led an army of tens of thousands, so he naturally would not be afraid of the cavalry of 4,000 people.

Wang Zhi asked, "My lord, this should be regarded as a suspicious tactic, right?" ”

"If you understand it that way, you can say it the same way, in short, it is a bluff! Our cards are not good, so we can't play cards, bluff him first, and find a way to lure the enemy deeper. Liu Yun observed the surrounding terrain and said to Wang Zhi.

Wang Zhi's eyebrows, which seemed to be dyed with thick ink, twisted more and more tightly.

As long as he discussed this method of arranging troops with Liu Yun, Wang Zhi felt like a waste, as a general of the first army, he could probably only charge into battle, and the things that he used his brain were not his game at all.

Just like just now, Liu Yun's words, he understood two words in total: scare people.

As for the other cards that are unknown, Wang Zhi doesn't know what they are at all.

I wanted to ask Liu Yun the meaning of his words, but Wang Zhi's old face couldn't be erased, and he seemed to be asking some idiotic questions all the time.

After hesitating, Wang Zhi still gave up asking what card it was, but asked: "Lord, what if the horse is not fooled?" ”

Liu Yun exhaled a long breath, and in the cold weather, one mouth turned into a white mist.

What Wang Zhi asked was also what Liu Yun was considering at this time.

Although his brain is running at a high speed, there are few ways, and Liu Yun still can't get rid of the category of a layman after all.

did not directly answer Wang Zhi's question, because Liu Yun did not have an answer now, but said: "We intercepted the grain and grass that the horse played, do you think he knows it or not?" ”

Wang Zhi shook his head very decisively and replied: "I must not know yet, the baggage officer was killed, and the rest of the soldiers were captured." Sooner or later, horses will know, but never so soon. ”

Liu Yun's eyes drooped slightly, and he said: "Without grain and grass, this is a lonely army, and there are only two options left for Ma to play, lead the army to the north to seek supplies from Han Sui." Or fight against the water and capture Di Dao. ”

Wang Zhi sighed lightly, he somewhat understood what Liu Yun meant.

"Therefore, the lord has to wait, and wait for the horse to play and know that the grain and grass have been robbed." Wang Zhi frowned and said.

Liu Yun rubbed his frozen hands and said: "This is just one of them, the horse play rate is tens of thousands, and the number of troops is several times that of us, and we can't fight hard, so we can only play with means." Ma Teng divided his troops into three routes, and although he didn't know how many soldiers and horses there were in the city, there would definitely not be many. You and I now have only 4,000 cavalry, and Gaixun has only 8,000 men. ”

Wang Zhi habitually grabbed his beard from left to right and fell into deep thought.

Why does he always feel that he will definitely lose this battle!

"The sudden appearance of this army of horse play, Ma Teng should be frightened. I thought that the wisdom was unparalleled, and the victory was in hand, just waiting for Han Sui to enter the urn, who knew that tens of thousands of soldiers fell from the sky to besiege the city overnight. I always feel that Han Sui's back hand is probably more than that. Liu Yun said.

Wang Zhi asked suspiciously, "Why does the lord think so?" ”

The two dismounted and walked slowly along the snow-covered ridge, Liu Yun said: "If we are not planned, Han Sui's mobilization of troops and horses is just a means to restrain Ma Teng's strategy, and it is also an overwhelming arrangement with a low number of people. We have reason to suspect that someone in Ma Teng's army has defected to Han Sui. ”

Liu Yun is analyzing Wang Zhi, and he is also analyzing himself.

Now it seems that everyone has put the cards on the bright side, but everyone still has a lot of hidden cards in their hands.

The most important of these is Han Sui.

Wang Zhi was shocked, and said in surprise: "For example, someone is in Di Dao City? ”

"It's not impossible, for us, it's just a matter of guarding against it. In the battle of Didao, Ma Teng was always the host, and we were just reinforcements. If the horses play our tricks and divide the troops according to us and Gaixun, then we will have a chance to take advantage of it. Liu Yun said slowly.

Although the topic was a little floating, Wang Zhi finally knew what the next battle would be.

"Harassment?" Wang Zhi asked with a hint of uncertainty.

Liu Yun nodded, in fact, he didn't like to use this trick.

Hovering around like mosquitoes, waiting for an opportunity to harass the enemy, is a sign of insufficient strength.

If the strength is sufficient, it will be enough to crush the past, why do you need to spend these brains to engage in this kind of Laoshzi attack.

To put it bluntly, it's still a little bit of a stream.

After all, his strength is still insufficient, and Liu Yun has to recognize his shortcomings.

Pinching a withered grass in his mouth, Liu Yun pointed his finger at the Tao River, "The Tao River, the river that flows out of the Dragon King's Palace, flows into the Yuyin River from south to north, and it is the largest tributary in this northwest place. If I were playing with a horse, I would dig the river directly and drown Ma Teng. ”

Wang Zhi looked at it seriously for a while, and felt that this method was feasible, and couldn't help but be a little worried, "Lord, what if Ma Yu really does this?" ”

"Then he's a smart man, but it's hard to do, and he won't be able to do it for a while. In order to flood the city, he had to build a dam downstream, forcing the Tao River to divert and pour into the city. Liu Yun pursed his lips and said.

There are many people who have done this trick in history.

But Liu Yun couldn't do it, he was still too merciful, and he always thought of the injuries of the people when he was fighting.

"Wait, let's see what happens next. Han Sui wanted to trap me and General Gai Xun to death under Jincheng Pass, but now that feng shui is turning, it is his turn to endure this hardship. Liu Yun said in a mocking tone.

When Liu Yun and Wang Zhi abandoned the army and stood on the ridge to look at the scenery.

The city of Didao, which is separated by several mountains from here, is in full swing.

There is nothing vain in the siege of Ma Play, he is an honest man, and he adopts a completely steady and steady tactics, nearly 50,000 soldiers, echelon attacks.

The drums of war were like a rain of rain and a strong wind, the archers were raining arrows, and the infantry set up dozens of ladders and chariots.

While attacking the soldiers in the city, they frantically tried everything to destroy the walls and gates.

This is the most conventional and common way of playing.

But under the absolute superiority of troops, Di Dao City is more like a lonely boat on the Tao River.

It's been a whole day, and the enemy army has been attacking the city without stopping for a moment, and I don't know how many waves there are.

Ma Teng personally led his own troops to defend the city, but it did not help the battle situation.

Although there is a strong city, it is a pity that it is outnumbered, to be precise, it should be trapped in a lonely city.

The current situation of being attacked on all sides made Ma Teng unable to pass on even a trace of news, and several scouts sent out were all destroyed, and the enemy army almost took the opportunity to attack the city.

"Lord, it's better to surrender by fraud, it's not a good idea to go on like this, and the city will be broken sooner or later." Zhou Zhen, the general under his command, couldn't help but admonish.

Ma Teng threw down the broken shield held high in his left hand and shouted, "Swear not to surrender!" ”

"Lord!" Zhou Zhen called anxiously and said, "It's just a deception, coaxing the horse into the city, and setting up an ambush to kill him." At that time, these tens of thousands of people, the dragons have no leader, and they will be scattered. ”

Ma Teng's eagle-like sharp gaze was raised, and he said, "Don't fall!" ”

Zhou Zhenchang sighed and said, "Lord, Liu Yun and Gai Xun's reinforcements have not arrived for a long time, isn't it obvious?" ”

Ma Teng suddenly grabbed Zhou Zhen and shouted, "Zhou Zhen, what do you want to say?" ”

Zhou Zhen said with an anxious face: "Lord, Liu Yun, this thief must have two hearts!" Maybe he has already colluded with Han Sui! Otherwise, why did the two generals Ma Chao and Ma Dai just pull out the camp and go north, and this horse play appeared under Di Dao City like a divine soldier descending from heaven, how could there be such a coincidence in the world? ”

Ma Teng's gaze gradually became a little more gloomy, and his fist, which was as strong as an old tree root, slowly let go of Zhou Zhen.

"What do you mean...... Gongsun Lu, this old thief lied to me? ”

Zhou Zhen calmed down and said, "Lord, isn't this clear? Di Dao was trapped, Gai Xun was close at hand, with Hanyang's scouts who were constantly moving day and night, how could he not know? But now that we have been trapped for a whole day, and Gaixun's reinforcements have not arrived for a long time, how can we still be called allies? ”

The thoughts in Ma Teng's heart slowly wavered, and he always attributed all this to Han Sui's calculations, without giving any deep thought.

Now listening to Zhou Zhen's words, he suddenly had a feeling of sudden realization.

"If I think twice!" With a sharp fist slamming into the pillar, Ma Teng then strode down the tower.

The hedgehog-like pillar, which had been pierced by feathered arrows, suddenly cracked after the horse was freed and fell to the ground with a bang.

"Lord......" Zhou Zhen couldn't help but shout again.

Seeing Ma Teng's back disappear, the anxious look on Zhou Zhen's face faded, and the corners of his mouth hooked up with a sneer.

beckoned to call the soldiers, and Zhou Zhen commanded: "...... tonight"

……

Jiazi No. 1 appeared in front of Liu Yun like a ghost, these swordsmen who had been wandering the world before joining Izumo Mountain were mostly acting strangely.

"Why didn't I see you this morning?" Liu Yun nested in a freshly dug cave, like a wild man.

Wang Zhi, a group of guys who don't look like people, wore sweaters and shouted that they were too hot, but Liu Yun really couldn't bear it.

Therefore, he had to have people dig a small cave and light a fire to keep him out of the cold.

The pretty face of the first word No. 1 covered under the cloak, like a machine, said in a muffled voice: "I found someone!" ”

"Who?" Liu Yun raised his head and asked.

Jiazi No. 1 said: "There is a swordsman in the wilderness thirty miles south of Baishi City, and his swordsmanship has been perfected, and I want to invite him to go up the mountain." ”

"Did it work?" Liu Yun asked.

The corners of the mouth of the first word moved slightly, and said, "I haven't seen anyone." ”

Liu Yun stretched out his hands to bake the fire, and after a moment of silence, he said, "That's a pity." ”

"Hmm!" A number one answered, and his answer always seemed so simple and capable.

Liu Yun glanced up at Jiazi No. 1 and asked, "Among the ten thousand armies, are you sure to take the head of the general?" ”

"Not sure! But I can give it a try. A No. 1 said without hesitation.

Liu Yun withdrew his hand and stared directly at the flocking flames.

Ma Yu was not fooled, even if he had found that there were two soldiers and horses approaching, he did not make any moves, and still had enough strength to attack Di Dao City.

It was as if there was nothing else in his eyes except the lonely city of Didao.

Therefore, Liu Yun's abacus fell through.

And in the face of enemies several times his own, the lonely city of Di Dao should not last long.

What's more, Liu Yun has another suspicion.

Therefore, he had to consider other ways to rescue his ally, the Liangzhou bandit Ma Teng.

The assassin of the second house is a method that can be tried.

But Liu Yun was afraid that the little manpower that he had finally pulled up would be lost like this.

These people are really treasures, and if one dies, there will be one less, and it is extremely difficult to cultivate.

Moreover, no matter how powerful an assassin is, it is absolutely impossible to defeat the army.

A word No. 1 suddenly said: "Lord, how about using poison?" ”

"Poison? Isn't it amazing? Liu Yun asked suddenly.

Jiazi No. 1 suddenly looked up and thought about it a little naively, and said: "It can cause illusions in life and a great change in heart." ”

"Hallucinations? A big change in heart, manic? Liu Yun's eyes couldn't help but appear one after another little stars.

A No. 1 pondered for a moment, "Hmm...... Probably, almost. ”

"Damn, you're a goddamn blessing to me!"

Liu Yun stood up excitedly, rubbed his hands excitedly, and rushed out of the cave.

"Wang Zhi, get over to Lao Tzu." Liu Yun yelled.

On the ridge, Wang Zhi, who was observing the battle of Di Dao, heard this, took three steps and made two steps, and rushed down.

"Lord!"

Liu Yun shouted: "Take people to play in the horse play array, and bring these people from the second palace with you." ”

"Huh?" Wang Zhi didn't quite understand the meaning of Liu Yun's words, and asked in surprise.

"Rush to the circle!" As Liu Yun spoke, he remembered something again, so he asked Jiazi No. 1, "In this way, will our own people also be poisoned?" ”

"Yes!" The answer to the word A is yes.

"What's the solution?" Liu Yun asked.

It's so fucking tiring to talk to this guy, but for the sake of Fu Jiang's face, Liu Yun endured it.

"Just cover your mouth and nose!" A word No. 1 said.

Looking at Wang Zhi, Liu Yun said, "Did you hear that?" Go and poison the horses, and all the soldiers cover their mouths and noses with damp cloths. By the way, the mouth and nose of the war horse were also covered with a damp cloth. ”

Wang Zhi asked with some uncertainty: "Lord, is this ...... Is it feasible? ”

"I don't know if I didn't do it, if it doesn't work, let Jiazi No. 1 go to Longsang City to release the horses." Liu Yun said with a wave of his hand.

How can he know if it will work now, if he doesn't have any ideas, he will be a dead horse and a live horse doctor.

If this still doesn't work, then there is no way but to attack.

Even if the troops are transferred from Hanyang again, Ma Teng, an ally, still has to be saved, and he is more valuable.

"Whoa!"

Wang Zhi received the order and went down to prepare with the first word.

Liu Yun turned around and returned to the cave that could barely shrink him, and continued to be in a daze.

Thinking over and over again, racking my brains, there should always be some way to this damn war.

He is really envious of Zhuge Liang's brain now, how did he calculate it?

In the midst of strategizing, the decisive victory is thousands of miles away.

Now in the situation, Liu Yun can finally realize how good this sentence is.

Fucking unscientific!

Ordinary people's brains still can't understand the minds of those geniuses after all.

I haven't paid attention to the battle in front of me, but Liu Yun already has a plan for the future.

When these wars are established, it is necessary to march into Bashu, grab the first grain, and occupy two territories.

Intercept Zhuge Liang and Liu Bei's back road first, and see what they do when the time comes.

Such three kingdoms should be a lot more interesting.
