Chapter 487: Just Look at Tonight!
After leaving the Han army's barracks, Wei Yan had been frowning.
On the way back, he wanted to ask Xu Tian, but he never found a chance.
It wasn't until they returned to the General's Mansion that Wei Yan couldn't help but ask.
"Your Majesty, aren't we going to deliver medicine and release news? Why reward the three armies now?
Our Chu and Han armies combined have nearly 100,000 people, where can we get so much grain and grass? ”
Like Ma Yan, Wei Yan also thought about it for a long time and didn't understand what Xu Tian meant.
However, the only reason why they would want to go together was because it would be too expensive to do so.
"What do you think of today's visit?"
Xu Tian did not answer Wei Yan's question directly, as usual, but asked a rhetorical question.
For Xu Tian's method, Wei Yan seems to have become accustomed to it.
On the contrary, he liked this way very much, at least in his opinion, Xu Tian was true to him and did not discriminate against him.
"Hmm...."Wei Yan frowned and recalled today's experience.
Xu Tian didn't interrupt him in a hurry, but let him think about it himself.
He never thought that people like Wei Yan were reckless men who could only use brute force, on the contrary, Xu Tian thought that people like them were extremely intelligent talents.
How can a person who can command tens of thousands of people gallop across the field be stupid?
With a change in their thinking, these people will be much better than the average strategist.
"They gave me a weird feeling, very deliberate..."
After a moment, Wei Yanmo said quietly with his chin raised.
"Especially that Ma Yan, no matter what the situation was before, this person would not give us the slightest face.
Just like before, the king wanted to spank his ass in front of so many people, and he still looked like he didn't eat oil and salt.
Now what's going on? All of a sudden, it became reasonable, and no matter how cynicism was, it was not shocking! There's definitely something strange about that! ”
Xu Tian's eyes showed appreciation, and he looked at Wei Yan carefully, and the other party's performance did not disappoint him at all.
"Can't he just be beaten and become honest now?"
Xu Tian decided to try Wei Yan again, so he asked with a frown, looking incomprehensible.
Seeing Xu Tian like this, Wei Yan didn't know why, and suddenly had a very refreshing feeling in his heart.
He couldn't help but stand up, came to Xu Tian's side and spoke loudly.
"This kind of person, if he can change after being beaten, then Zhuge Liang would have cleaned him up a long time ago, and he still has to wait until today!
So, they must be acting with us, they must have some ulterior motives! ”
"I'll tell you what their purpose is!"
Xu Tian no longer circled with Wei Yan, in his opinion, Wei Yan was good enough now.
So, he took out several secret letters from his arms, including the record report of monitoring Zhuge Liang, and handed them to Wei Yan one by one.
Picking up the tea bowl in front of him, which was already a little cold, Xu Tian squinted his eyes and looked at the serious Wei Yan.
As time passed, Wei Yan's face became more and more ugly, until the end, his hands couldn't help but clench into fists.
"Humph!"
Wei Yan slammed his fist on the table in front of him and snorted angrily.
"These villains have made so many small movements behind their backs, so I'll say how this Ma Jian has changed.
It turns out that they are ready to join forces with Sun Quan, that old thief, to deal with us! ”
"Now you understand?" Xu Tian smiled slightly, it seemed that these news were insignificant to him at all.
Wei Yan was a little stunned, he didn't understand what Xu Tian meant.
"Let me put it another way, if you are Zhuge Liang and face the current situation, if you must do something to us, when is the most appropriate time?"
Xu Tian's eyes burst into light, and his expression was a little solemn.
"If it was before, the best chance would definitely be after Sun Quan retreated, because then their strength was the strongest!
But now, if I were Zhuge Liang, then the action must be ....."
Speaking of this, Wei Yan's eyes widened suddenly, and his right hand couldn't help but clench again, grabbing those secret letters into a ball.
"Tonight!!"
By now, Wei Yan seemed to understand a little bit why Xu Tian proposed to sacrifice the three armies tonight!
"So Chief, there are a few things you need to do right now...."
As he spoke, Xu Tian took out a letter again and handed it to Wei Yan.
This is a plan written by him himself, and success or failure is tonight...
...
The sky was already bright, and the morning sun had already struggled to rise from the horizon and illuminate the earth.
The fiery red sunlight reflected the entire city wall of Xiangyang City in a red color.
However, if you look closely, you will find that the reason why the city wall is like this is not only because of the sunlight, but because it is stained with blood.
The siege team sent by Sun Quan has been wiped out by the Chu army defending the city.
This is a war that cannot be won at all, and the Wu army has no backup on its side, let alone a way back.
The only thing they have to do is to send themselves to their deaths!
Such a battle, of course, is easy to divide the winner and loser.
By the time these ranks had been wiped out, Sun Quan's large army had already withdrawn far away.
All they had to do now was to join up with Gangneung's troops as soon as possible, and then go straight down the river to Chaisang.
According to the agreement, as soon as they are assembled and arrive at Chaisang, Zhuge Liang's Han army will immediately respond to them.
At that time, the Chu army will be completely wiped out, as long as Xu Tian is destroyed, then Jingzhou will be theirs sooner or later!
At this moment, Sun Quan was sitting on the wide carriage, and four war horses were galloping forward with him.
I just received a report from the scout, and it is very close to the agreed assembly place.
In two hours at most, they will join the army in Gangneung!
At this moment, a horse galloped forward in the distance and came directly to Sun Quan's carriage.
Under the control of the coachman, the carriage quickly stopped where it was.
"King Qiyu, I found General Huang in front!"
Sun Quan, who was a little dizzy from being shaken by the carriage, didn't react for a while.
"Who?"
"Huang Gai, Old General Huang!" The soldier clenched his fists again and said aloud.
"Bring him to me!"
Sun Quan shook his head, waiting for his eyes to shout at the soldier.
A moment later, the departing soldier returned, and behind him, his hair unkempt and tired, was carried by several soldiers.
"The last general.... The last will meet the king! ”
Huang Gai struggled to get up, but was helped back by Sun Quan, who hurriedly got out of the carriage.
"Old general, you're welcome, tell me quickly, how did you get like this?"
Sun Quan looked sad on his face, took Huang Gai's hand and said softly.
So, Huang Gai told Sun Quan in detail everything he saw and heard in Chaisang, including how he came here....
