Chapter 100: The fog is cloudy
"Wait and see, we can set up an ambush here to let the enemy enter our ambush circle and fight an ambush battle, now what we need to do is wait and see what happens, and wait for the move."
After General Yu heard Gongzi Qi's words, he was overjoyed and said, "Gongzi is so strategic." ”
Gongzi Qi turned to look at General Yu and said with great concern: "It doesn't matter if the general's injuries are there. ”
"Small injuries, it doesn't matter."
"It doesn't matter, it's important to recuperate," Gongzi looked around and said, "Someone is coming, send the general into the room to recuperate." A fire completely destroyed half of the town, but there were still a few houses that were not burned down, and the soldiers on the left and right stepped forward to help General Yu into the room, rebuilt and repaired the town, and ordered Su Wu to be stationed here, and he and the two stunned men returned to the three cities to repair the city walls in case of war. Su Wu stationed his army here, waiting for the national teacher Yin Sheng to lead his army to enter the ambush circle he had set up and fight an ambush battle.
The national teacher Yin Sheng led 100,000 soldiers of the Ba State to attack the Chu State's Yan, which was relatively close to the capital of the Chu State, Ying, if the Yan was captured, the soldiers of the Ba State would go down the Yangtze River and approach the capital of the Chu State. At this time, they set up camp outside the city to discuss how to attack the city, and looked at the generals on the left and right: "Everyone, I don't know what the generals' plans are for attacking the city?" ”
"National teacher, we set out from the Qianjiang River, all the way down the Yangtze River, break through Enshi, and reach the city. Now that the morale of our army is high, and there are as many as 100,000 troops, we should take Yancheng in one go, and attack Yancheng, the other capital of Chu State, and Yingdu will be within reach," a military general stepped out and raised his head very arrogantly and looked at the national teacher Yin Shengdao in front of the desk.
"The arrogant army will be defeated, the war book has a cloud, the army is scheming, the second is the war, the second is the army, the next siege, the law of the siege, the last resort, do not have ten percent of the plan not to attack the city, the rash siege will pay more than ten times the strength, ten times the price. Now our army is already alone, deep into the hinterland of the enemy army needs a quick battle, if the enemy army cuts off our army's food route, then it will be trapped here," Luo Bin sat on the side and disdained the national teacher Yin Sheng in front of the desk, hearing this military general say this, he thought that this military general did not know anything about the current situation in our country, so he made a vain decision that it was nothing more than to put our army to death, such frivolous words Luo Bin felt a little inappropriate about this. If you attack the city as this general said, you will be defeated! At this time, Luo Bin was thinking in his heart that the current country of Pakistan was already a foreign powerhouse and could not withstand a defeat. If we fail here because of a rash siege, our country will be destroyed, so I have to say this.
National Teacher Yin Sheng moved his gaze to Luo Bin's body and said with a somewhat far-fetched smile: "What is General Luo's strategy for this?" ”
"It's just a literati below, let's ask those generals about martial arts and national teachers," Luo Bin thought of those sacrificed heroes, as well as Gongzi Qi's death in prison, he hated this national teacher, and avoided it.
The national teacher Yin Sheng had already had murderous intentions towards this Luo Bin and was looking for an opportunity to get rid of Luo Bin, so he was a little annoyed, stood up and glared at Luo Bin angrily and said: "Bold Luo Bin, if you don't respect the poor way, you are disrespectful to the king, the king gives the poor way the right to act cheaply, and it is reasonable for the poor road to kill you here, do you know?" ”
"Traitor, you killed Zhongliang to control the government, do you think there are fewer people to kill, and what is it to kill one more." Luo Bin stepped forward and pointed angrily at Yin Shengdao in front of the desk.
"You, you, bold Luo Bin," at this time, the national teacher Yin Sheng was furious and shouted to the surroundings: "Come on, come on, drag this Luo Bin out and behead it." The generals on the left and right stood still, not listening to their orders, and some generals collectively stepped forward and knelt down and said: "National teacher, now is the time for the country to employ people, General Luo can't kill it, the hegemony of Pakistan still needs General Luo, General Luo Wen Tao is strategic, and his strategy can be better than thousands of troops." National teacher, let's let General Luo make meritorious service with his crimes. ”
The national teacher Yin Sheng saw that all the generals were interceding for Luo Bin, and the soldiers around him did not listen to his orders, if he killed Luo Bin, it would be a mutiny, and the consequences would be unimaginable. Therefore, the national teacher Yin Sheng said: "If you hadn't made meritorious contributions to the imperial court, how could you have lived until now, and you will not be held accountable for this poor way, and you will ask General Luo to do it yourself." Luo Bin turned around and stood behind these generals, looking at the national teacher Yin Sheng in front of the desk, and made a look of refusing to give in, one of the generals looked at Luo Bin and persuaded bitterly: "The country can be reunified, and the people can be rich and stable, this is the last wish of the prince before his death." We were originally all bandits in Cangping, and we were favored by our sons, and we were reincarnated to serve the country, and we should spill our blood on the battlefield, so we feel glorious to die. If we make senseless sacrifices because of infighting, how will we face Childe under Jiuquan? Luo Bin looked up at the sky, knelt down and said: "National teacher, there will be many offenses in the end, please forgive me." ”
"Since you know that you are at fault, you will not be held accountable, General Luo, please get up." At this time, there was no smile on the face of the national teacher Yin Sheng, and he said very seriously: "Generals, there will be fog tomorrow when the poor road watches the stars at night, if you have any way to lure the main general who guards the city out of the city, and the poor road will have a way to kill him." ”
The surrounding generals all looked at Luo Bin, and it seemed that they didn't have any better plans in their hearts. National Teacher Yin Sheng still moved his gaze to Luo Bin's body and said with a smile: "I don't know what General Luo's plan is for this?" ”
"First send troops to challenge outside the city gate, if the lord of the city will not hold out to meet the battle, find a few soldiers with a louder voice to scold in front of the city gate, and then the last general will write a letter and send some gifts, and the lord of the city will definitely go out of the city to face the battle."
"Okay, let's act according to this plan," all the generals withdrew from the camp tent and left, a partial general stood in place and had not yet walked out, the national teacher Yin Sheng moved his eyes to this partial general, and the partial general stepped forward and said: "I think this Luo Bin is not good for us, it's better to... ”
"No, keep him first, this person is still useful to Poor Dao," National Teacher Yin Sheng looked out of the tent with his eyes, and turned his head sharply to face this person: "You continue to monitor Luo Bin in secret, and inform Poor Dao of his every move." ”
The partial general stepped forward and stood in front of the national teacher Yin Sheng and saluted: "Yes, the last general will obey the order." ”
"Okay, you go down."
Luo Bin sat on the grass outside the tent, looking at the night sky, the morning star in the sky, feeling helpless, got up and sighed and walked into his tent. On the desk directly above the camp tent, there is Gongzi Qi's spiritual seat, it turns out that these generals in Cangping thought that Gongzi Qi was killed, what is the reason for this? I don't know. Luo Bin knelt down and looked at Gongzi Qi's spiritual throne and said: "Childe, the current court is blocked by traitors, the government is stupid, and many virtuous ministers in the court have died tragically under the torture of the faint king. Childe, you have a spirit in the sky, remind the last general what to do? Luo Bin got up and took down the book from behind the desk, this is the book "Miscellaneous" that Gongzi Qi did not finish, Luo Bin opened this book to watch the "Miscellaneous Tales: A Brief Introduction to the Nine Yin and Yang Strategies", and then looked at Gongzi Qi's spiritual position and said: "Childe, the last general understands, if you can't bear it, you will make a big plan, if you are false, you will advance, and if you actually retreat, you will wait for the move, and watch the sky when the time comes." ”
The fog rose in the morning, and it was hazy, and it was impossible to see any movement in the distance, let alone the situation of the enemy army. At this time, a soldier walked out of the hazy fog and stood under the city gate to challenge, no matter how he challenged and scolded the main general who defended the city was not out of the city to face the battle, and the deep closed city gate was closed. But time waits for no one, and if the sun comes out, the fog will disperse. Luo Bin rode out slowly on a war horse and said, "The main general who is defending the city is still closed. The general next to him only nodded helplessly, Luo Bin stretched out his finger and pointed to the city gate, and said, "See, the flag of Chu State above the city tower, shoot it down." The general next to him looked in the direction pointed by Luo Bin's finger and said confidently: "No problem." ”
The general rode a war horse and stepped forward to stand under the city gate, looking at the high city gate, drawing a bow and arrows, and the arrows flew out of the string, only to hear a "whoosh" sound, and the feather arrows flew past the ears of a soldier defending the city, so that he hurriedly covered his ears in a panic and looked at the flag of Chu erected next to him, and fell flutteringly. The generals under the city tower then fell the flag of Chu and trampled on the horse's hooves, and the soldiers behind him rushed forward to step on the flag of Chu and shouted continuously. The soldiers defending the city looked at the soldiers of Pakistan under the tower, and one soldier ran into the general's palace to report the incident, while the rest of the soldiers continued to guard the city.
A soldier hurriedly ran into the general's mansion, knelt down and looked at the city guard general in front of the desk and said, "General, the enemy army shot down the banner of Chu State, trampled on it and shouted and scolded at will. ”
"How can this be reasonable, a small country of Pakistan dares to spread wilderness under the city tower of my Chu country, who is willing to go out of the city with this general to face the battle."
"General, for the sake of the general, the general should not be angry and raise the army, and if he is angry, he will be defeated, and it is related to the life and death of the country," at this time, a partial general stepped forward and said.
Soon, a soldier sent a gift box, the city keeper will order the soldier to open it, the gift box contains women's clothes, and the trampled flag of the Chu State, and there is a letter on the banner of the Chu State, the city guard general opened it to see, it was full of some insults. The lord of the city guard rose up in anger and tore this letter to pieces, pulled out the long sword on the wall behind him, and walked out: "Can you bear it, you have to persuade again, who will persuade whom?" The lord of the city will climb the tower and go to battle, open the city gate and rush out, these soldiers of Pakistan rushed away, fled in all directions, and the lord of the city guard laughed very proudly: "So vulnerable." "Continuing to lead the army in pursuit, the fleeing enemy army disappeared into the fog, and the defender of the city will lead the army to continue the pursuit in the fog, and it is impossible to see what lies ahead, and the army can only wander in the fog, scurrying like headless flies. In the distance, a behemoth crawled towards here, and could only vaguely see that it was four legs, with a lot of fluff on its feet, and its whole body was dark, and it opened its mouth to swallow a soldier alive, without spitting out the bones. The city lord on the war horse will be stunned when he looks at this behemoth, and rushes out of the indiscriminate slashing. Hearing the screams next to him, he saw a behemoth crawling next to him, and when he walked in, he saw it vaguely that this thing was an arthropod, with a pair of large claws on both sides of the mouth, four pairs of feet on the chest, a thick front abdomen, a slender back abdomen, and a poisonous hook at the end. From there, the big claw directly clamped a panicked soldier in front of him in half, and with a scream, blood splattered everywhere. The sound of the horse screamed and the lord of the city fell off the horse, and the lord who fell off the horse stood up and hurriedly retreated, the hand holding the long sword was constantly trembling, and the forehead was cold sweat, waving the long sword in his hand, and many soldiers around were killed by mistake and fell in a pool of blood. At this time, the lord of the city wanted to go crazy, and generally among these panicked soldiers, he slashed indiscriminately, blood splashed on his armor, and on his face, looking up at the sky like a dark cloud pressed down, it was oblong, divided into two parts, the head, thorax and abdomen, with tentacles, and the feet were four pairs down, and there were many fluff on his feet, and the tip of the anus protruded, and when he stepped on it, he saw blood splashing, and there was a river of blood under his feet. It seems that they are surrounded by these behemoths, and the panicked soldiers are unable to find their way, and countless people are trampled to death by random collisions. Directly above a soldier, a blood basin came down with a large mouth, biting off half of the soldier, and the lower half of his body slowly fell from the mouth and fell to the ground. At that time, the lord of the city was stunned by this astonishing scene in front of him, and the long sword in his hand fell from the spot, looking up at the sky, and the thin and long poisonous hook in the back of his abdomen bent down and pierced into his head, and blood flowed down between his eyebrows or ears. The tail pierced into the head of the defender and threw it out. Standing on top of the tower, the general looked into the distance, the fog was too big to see what was happening in front of him, only heard bursts of screams, the head of the city defender did not know what was thrown out, and fell under the tower. Standing on top of the tower, the general took a few steps back in panic, slumped on the ground, and stared blankly ahead. When the fog cleared, corpses were strewn beneath the towers.
In the middle of the night, the general sat at his desk and wrote to the court asking for reinforcements, and when he had finished writing the letter, he handed it to a soldier who galloped out on a fast horse. At this time, only a burst of screams was heard in the city, the general opened the door and looked, and was about to turn around to find that there was a headless general in black armor standing behind him, raising the iron halberd of the three Gebu characters to hook off the head, and the general was captured.
The soldiers of Yancheng rode out on fast horses and rushed to Ying, the capital of Chu State, and passed the urgent news of Yancheng to Ling Yin Zilan's hands. In the early morning of the morning, Yin Zilan hurriedly stood on top of the court and transmitted the urgent report of the city to the hands of King Xiang of Chuqing. King Chu Qingxiang was shocked after reading the emergency report, stood up and sat down again, his eyes were in a daze, and said: "The city is in danger, the city defender will die in battle, and who else will lead the troops to reinforce the city." ”
"Your Majesty, the general Qu Xiang is resourceful and can be his main general. When Qu Xiang was young, he followed his father to fight on the battlefield, and he had made great contributions to the Chu State, and this person was competent," Shangguan Doctor Jin Shang looked at the king of Chu Qingxiang above the main hall.
