Chapter 269: Communicating with each other
After rounds of escalation.
From the tun chief to Quhou, then to the military Sima, then to the captain, and finally to Wei Qing.
Xiao Ding was in the East Gate Cave of Yuyang City, guarding loneliness and loneliness, stroking the city gate with the smell of blood, urine and, and almost collapsed.
It wasn't loneliness and loneliness that broke him, nor these disgusting tastes.
In fact, it was an occasional noise from a mile away.
Xiao Ding really didn't know if an arrow would come out of the darkness and plunge it into his throat.
Fortunately, after waiting for more than half an hour, a small gap suddenly opened in the city gate with a creak.
"Messenger, come in quickly, the general is waiting for you."
Xiao Ding hurriedly entered the city gate, and after the city gate was tightly closed, he felt that he had picked up a life.
The officer who took him to see Wei Qing was very serious, and he didn't talk to Xiao Ding on a horse.
Just like that, he went all the way to the door of Wei Qing's bedroom, and the officer suddenly pushed the door open.
"Let's go inside."
"Oooh."
Xiao Ding was a little scared even for Zhang Yuan, let alone Wei Qing.
As a result, as soon as he entered, Wei Qing looked at Xiao Ding with a smile on his face, which made him feel like a spring breeze, and the sense of urgency that had been in place for so long had dissipated.
"You look a little raw."
Wei Qing didn't think that Zhang Yuan would send an inconsequential person to do such an important thing.
"General, the villain is Xiao Ding, the son of Xiao Qing, the marquis, and now holds the position of General Su Wei in the Hussar General's Mansion."
Xiao Ding introduced his identity with a straight face.
"The brother of the Hussar General's wife?"
"The little sister Xiao Ruo is indeed married to the hussar general."
Xiao Ding thought that this was a little ashamed, and the army that relied on nepotism was really embarrassed to say.
"Oh, that's my own.
Sit down and talk. ”
Wei Qing pointed to the cushion on the side of the desk.
Xiao Ding was a little stunned, it seemed that his brother-in-law was really the same as the legend, and he was a brother of the opposite sex with the general Wei Qing.
"General Xie."
"Isn't your sister on a bad relationship with her distant brother?"
"Uh..."
Xiao Ding was a little confused, shouldn't he discuss the military aircraft first, how can he talk about his sister.
"My sister and the hussar general are not incompatible, my sister is weak and has always regarded the hussar general as a hero, and she has a yearning before she gets married."
"Is that because you don't have a good relationship with your distant brother?"
"General, the last general and the hussar general have only known each other for a few months, except for this time in the army, they have only met twice before, and one side is at the wedding."
"Then how did he send you to deliver the letter, this is a head-scratching task.
If you are captured by the Huns, the distant brother will definitely be implicated, and with his character, he will definitely not do such a risky thing. ”
Wei Qing looked at Zhang Yuan very accurately.
However, he didn't expect that Zhang Yuan had already calculated all the possible consequences of this matter.
"I don't know this general, but the hussar general told me last night.
I promised him that if I could not withstand the torture of the Huns, I would choose to bite my tongue and kill myself, and I would not bring misfortune to my family. ”
Wei Qing nodded, he was just suspicious.
After all, he hadn't seen Xiao Ding before, and if someone suddenly came, he couldn't just believe it.
And Xiao Ding didn't even bring a token, how could Wei Qing trust him so much.
"Don't talk about this, since Brother Yuan asked you to deliver the letter, bring the letter to me first."
"General, the letter has been destroyed by me, and the hussar general let me memorize it and destroy it to avoid being intercepted by the Huns."
Xiao Ding explained.
This seems to be the cautious style of the distant brother. Then tell me what the letter is about. ”
The hussar general wrote that on the first day of April he would launch an attack on the large army besieging Yuyang City.
When the time comes, please lead 200,000 troops out of the city to fight the Xiongnu army with him.
In addition, Wuhuan Dadan Yu has been rebelled by the hussar general, and the evil king also promised to oppose the water.
At that time, the four armies attacked together and drove the existing 300,000-strong army of the Xiongnu to the last section of the Great Wall in Liaoxi County.
If this plan can't be done, we should also try to drive the army in the hands of the Xiongnu Dadan Yu Yizhi to the east.
In addition, the 100,000 Hun cavalry in Hunu City was handed over to the 100,000 cavalry of the Wuhuan tribe in Hunu City and the 100,000 cavalry under the command of the Hun Evil King plus the 100,000 Han troops in Hunu City. ”
"I didn't expect Brother Yuan to do so many things during this time."
The rebellion of the Evil King was expected by Wei Qing, but he was able to reverse Wuhuan Da Dan Yu, then this is Zhang Yuan's ability.
"General, the hussar general also wrote in the letter, so that you can't easily trust the evil king and Wuhuan Dadanyu.
He makes you savor the allusions of false Taoism and cold lips and teeth. ”
"False Dao? Cold lips and teeth? ”
"Yes!"
"Anything else?"
"He asked you to tell me a secret that only you know between you, and said it was two words."
Wei Qing believed that Zhang Yuan must have sent a messenger.
As for whether it was intercepted by the Huns, and then replaced by another person, Wei Qing didn't know.
But Wei Qing felt that the possibility was very low, if the person in front of him was from the Huns, then what else would he say to prevent the evil king and Wuhuan Da Danyu.
"Two words?"
"Yes, two words."
Wei Qing thought for a long time, picked up the brush and dipped it in a little ink, and wrote a few lines on the white paper.
He who speaks is not guilty, but he who hears is enough to abstain. ’
"Just give this to my brother when you go back."
Xiao Ding couldn't understand what Wei Qing meant.
"General, the hussar general said only two words."
"Those two words are in these two sentences, when you go back and tell Brother Yuan, he will understand what they mean."
Xiao Ding is not illiterate, he can still see that this sentence comes from the "Book of Songs".
His ancestors are typical characters who read to the extreme.
Although Xiao Qing let him join the army, it was only because obtaining military merits was the best way to help him rise.
But he really couldn't understand that there were those two words hidden in this sentence.
"I'll ask someone to clean up a room for you to rest, and I'll come back to you when I think about what I want to tell my brother."
"Whoa."
Wei Qing needed some time to digest all the information he knew tonight.
And with ten days to go until April, he still has time to think about it calmly.
The news of Xiao Ding's arrival in Yuyang City was known to no more than fifty people, and these people had specially instructed them not to disclose the news.
Wei Qing believed that there were no Hun spies in the city, but he had to be cautious.
Early the next morning, Gongsun He knew the news of Xiao Ding's entry into the city, which Wei Qing specially told him.
Anyone in the city can hide it, but Gongsun He can't hide it.
It's good that Gongsun He is also the Taishou of Yuyang City, plus the general of the Han Dynasty.
Gongsun He did not go to Xiao Ding, but to Wei Qing.
"General, the hussar general actually asked his eldest brother to deliver the letter?"
"Hahaha."
Wei Qing laughed. Everybody reads
Sure enough, the people around looked at Zhang Yuan from the same angle.
Zhang Yuan has always let his closest people do things that can expose them to the sun.
Then he calls on people who have nothing to do with him to do something sinister.
It seems that Dongfang Shuo went to Chen Ajiao to complain a long time ago.
I've taken myself out, and I won't expose myself even if it happens.
"Is this true?"
"I can still send someone to lie to you, the person is in the Taishou Mansion.
It should be true, but there doesn't seem to be anyone on the far brother's side who can be trusted. ”
Gongsun He thought thoughtfully, and finally sighed.
"It seems that this is the case, Your Majesty has transferred all the people that the hussar general can trust."
"Well, otherwise he wouldn't have let Xiao Ding come to Yuyang City to take this risk."
"Let's go in and tell us what we should do."
"Okay."
To mobilize the army of Fox Slave City, Zhang Yuan said that it doesn't count, it must be written by Wei Qing and then stamped with the general's seal.
In addition, Chu Da risked the danger before, and the letter sent by two Han people was also given to Zhang Yuan's hands.
These two letters have to be given to the real thing, and it is definitely unrealistic to let Xiao Ding memorize them.
There is a lot of risk in this, but Wei Qing can only gamble.
After discussing with Gongsun He for a while, Wei Qing made up his mind.
Just do what Zhang Yuan said.
What can be the worst-case scenario? Isn't it just that the 450,000 army is fighting against the more than 800,000 cavalry on the opposite side?
"Even if the worst result happens, we won't enter the city when we have our backs to Yuyang City!"
Wei Qing gritted his teeth and said.
If the Huns wanted to trap the Han army and lure the Han army into the encirclement, they could only pit the fox slave city and Zhang Yuan's 150,000 cavalry.
Because Wei Qing must have been the last to let the army out of the city.
The 200,000 Han troops in Yuyang City were themselves in the encirclement of the Huns, and they didn't need to break through at all, and if the situation was wrong, they could immediately open the city gate and return to the city.
Wei Qing made this decision only because he couldn't sell Zhang Yuan and the 100,000 army in Fox Slave City.
Wei Qing can't do the thing of selling teammates.
Moreover, an army of 450,000 against more than 800,000 cavalry really can't be a draw or a victory.
It doesn't matter if it's a pyrrhic victory.
Fight all these family backgrounds on both sides, in fact, it is also the big man who has the advantage.
As long as the Xiongnu are eliminated, and then the Wuhuan tribe, the evil king, will not pose a threat, and the foreign enemy of the Han Dynasty seems to be only one Qianghu.
And the army of the Han Dynasty can actually make up more than 100,000, and these more than 100,000 are all elites firmly in Liu Che's hands.
The real elite troops of Dahan have never been dispatched.
It is the princes and kings who want to rebel against it.
Of the 500,000 troops in Wei Qing and Zhang Yuan's hands, 50,000 were themselves the defenders of Yuyang County.
The other 450,000, 300,000 of them were Wang soldiers and Hou soldiers from all over the Han Dynasty.
The remaining 150,000 cavalry are the regular army of the Han Dynasty.
Otherwise, how could Liu Che take out all his family wealth and fight with the Huns, and then wait for the princes and kings to come and reap the benefits of the fishermen.
It's impossible to think about.
In particular, on the way to Yuyang County, Zhang Yuan also pulled away the two princes who wanted to rebel the most, King Hengshan and King Huainan, with 90% of the troops under him.
The remaining ten percent were the necessary city defenses for each city and the guards of the two of them.
The princes and kings had no strength to rebel, so Liu Che could let the generals fight on the frontier.
"This battle will definitely be successful!"
Gongsun He also clenched his fists and shouted, he was giving himself confidence, and he was also giving Wei Qing confidence.
Wei Qing first wrote a letter to the defenders of Fox Slave City.
Then he copied the secret letter sent by Chu Da before and sandwiched it in an envelope for the defenders of Fox Slave City.
Finally, he found Xiao Ding and explained that he would let Zhang Yuan read it before sending the letter to the defenders of Fox Slave City.
The next night, Xiao Ding sneaked out of the city with a letter in his arms.
At that place the day before, I saw the scout sent by the Evil King before he appeared.
The scouts quietly brought Xiao Ding back to the camp.
After dawn, Zhao Xin took Xiao Ding out with him.
Fortunately, there were no accidents, in fact, it was also caused by Yi Zhixian's laxity.
He didn't expect that the Evil King and Wuhuan Da Danyu would betray him.
I didn't expect these two people to count all the things of the military ministers on his head.
In fact, he is still too stupid, always thinking that the enemy of his enemy will be his friend.
At noon, when the sun hangs high overhead.
Xiao Ding saw the city wall of the Governor's Mansion in Yaoyang, and when he saw the defenders standing on the city wall, he always felt like he was in a different world.
His mood these days is too complicated.
The first thing Zhang Yuan said when he saw Xiao Ding was to ask him what Wei Qing said was those two words.
"Hussar general, the general didn't say two words, he wrote me two sentences."
"Two sentences?"
Xiao Ding is also very helpless, these big brothers don't follow the routine.
"Two sentences in the Book of Songs.
He who speaks is not guilty, and he who hears is enough to abstain. ”
The one who speaks is not guilty? Whoever smells it is enough to quit?
Zhang Yuan pondered it carefully, and only then did he understand what kind of anagram Wei Qing was playing.
What is Chu Da going to do?
Isn't it just talking and listening?
In fact, Zhang Yuan didn't expect to come here at first.
He followed his own train of thought, and the one in Chu Da was the two in this sentence.
In fact, Wei Qing thought the same way.
"I understand, you got the letter to mobilize the army of Fox Slave City."
Xiao Ding nodded, took out the letter from his arms and handed it to Zhang Yuan.
After Zhang Yuan opened it, he found that there were two of them.
The letter transcribed by Wei Qing was first opened by Zhang Yuan.
It seems that Brother Chu has already been in contact with Brother Qing.
‘90,hx,20,xn,50,wh,20.
LJHR,LSYTX。
XNYSQJZJH。 ’
Zhang Yuan translated for a long time, but only translated the first two messages.
They are the Hun Hun Evil King and the Wuhuan Da Dan Yu's troops.
Then Li was a good man, and Li Shuo had already surrendered.
Zhang Yuan knew that Li Fu was still alive, but he didn't know how to run to the Huns and then be arrested.
Li Shuo's surrender to the Xiongnu was guessed by Zhang Yuan, this person's bones are not so hard.
As for the last sentence, Zhang Yuan wasted half a day to guess the general meaning, as if the Xiongnu wanted to defeat the Han army.
It seems that Chu Da's contact with Wei Qing has been the beginning, and this information is not very helpful to Zhang Yuan.
Zhang Yuan now wants Chu Da to know what kind of mark he should make after the Huns really escape, and then let the Han army be able to find traces of the Hun army's escape.
Or it can guide him to the direction where Yi Zhi is oblique.
