Chapter 43: Exposure (1)
As soon as the torch in Jiangbei lit up, it was seen by Zhong Yitong. Looking behind him, he saw that torches were also lit in the Sun Ridge that he had searched. He said to himself, "What's going on? We were exposed, and this was a harm to General Zhuang. ”
"yes, what can I do?" Erwa was worried about the tunnel, and turned around to look around, looked in the direction of Sun Ridge for a while, and said, "Look at the place where the torch appeared is Sun Ridge, and we missed the dark whistle." You see, on the north and south banks of the river, the torches are dotted with stars, and they are about to reach Wushan. ”
All the team members revolved around Zhong and asked in unison, "What should I do?" What to do? ”
Zhong Yitong regretted it and said, "Oh, I hurt General Zhuang miserably." He turned around and ran back frantically, trying to deliver this unfavorable information to General Zhuang as quickly as possible.
Erwa grabbed Zhong Yitong and said: "Zhong Baichang, you can't, there is the secret post of the Qin army behind you, you go, there is no other possibility, you will definitely die." ”
Zhong Yitong got rid of Erwa's arm and ran back along the road he came from.
Erwa turned her head to look at Jiangbei and found that the burning torch had been extinguished in an instant, and darkness had returned. He hurriedly caught up with Zhong Yitong and said, "Zhong Baichang, look, there are no torches over there." ”
Zhong Yitong said dejectedly: "This is because the Qin army has already sent back the information that the Chu army is going to Wushan, what are you doing with the torches?" You don't care about me, you greet the brothers, and when I see General Zhuang, I'll come back immediately. ”
Zhuang Ji, who was standing at the bow of the boat, suddenly saw the torches on the north bank of the river, and pointed to the torches in shock and shouted: "What's the matter, what's the matter?" There was no signal from the enemy on Zhong Yitong's side, why did Xiao Bu go wrong with the route? But before he had finished speaking, his eyes turned to the south shore and he was even more astonished when he saw the burning torches.
Liu Huaibei hurriedly turned around the bow of the ship a few times, and persuaded Zhuang Ji: "General Zhuang, depending on the situation, we have been discovered by the enemy, if we move forward, I am afraid that we will be burned and it will be difficult to protect ourselves, so it is better to make plans early and retreat for stability." ”
"Back off? Where are you going now? "Zhuang Ji, who has been through a hundred battles and is always quiet, and Zhuang Ji, who has a clear mind when deploying troops, is in chaos at this time. Looking at the panic of the thousands of soldiers in the entire fleet, the speed of the ship slowly slowed down, waiting for him to make a final decision.
The river wind blew in a loud gust, and the huge waves "snapped" against the bow of the boat, as if loudly telling the danger of the journey ahead, and forcefully stopped it from moving forward and returned to the safety of the rear.
Zhuang Ji stood in the wind, and he stared with resolute eyes at the place where torches had been lit on the left and right banks. The torches burned from raging to waning, until one by one they were extinguished and the shores returned to darkness.
After Liu Huaibei inspected the movement of the ships with his eyes, he walked to Zhuang Ji and said, "General Zhuang, the speed of the ships behind has slowed down significantly, and it seems that they are waiting for your order to retreat, General. You see......"
Zhuang Ji suddenly roared: "Who said that you retreated? When Zhong Yitong found out about the enemy, he must come back to report the news. Order, according to the original plan, full speed ahead. ”
"This ...... General, it can't be like this," Liu Huaibei said cautiously, "If we continue to move forward, aren't we falling into the Qin army's strategy?" ”
Zhuang Ji pointed ahead and said, "Liu Huaibei, listen well, pay attention to the stream ahead, and if you find a stream, report it to me immediately." Did you hear that? ”
Liu Huaibei didn't understand what Zhuang Ji was going to do, so he had to answer seriously in an emergency: "Yes." After he turned around, he stepped back and said, "General Zhuang, you still have to consider the wishes of all the soldiers." ”
Zhuang Ji said angrily: "What soldiers are you considering?" Xiao Bu, they are already in the hinterland of the Qin army, they are ten times more dangerous than us, have you considered it? Besides, we still have a way out, and although the situation is still unknown, I still have a glimmer of hope for a pound of water's efforts. ”
Saying this, with the information provided to him by Zhuang Ji, he rushed back to the base of the Qin army in Qianzhong day and night, and unexpectedly met General Sima Cuo, the supreme commander of the Western Front of the Qin army.
As soon as he saw Sima Cuo, he knelt down ecstatically and said, "The most respectable General Sima, God really helps me." ”
When Sima heard this, he hurriedly picked up a pound of water and said, "You lurked at the border and went all the way to the henchmen of the Chu army, which is very remarkable." After General Ben heard about it, he knew that you would definitely contribute to the Qin army's destruction of Chu, and you would make a great difference. Today, as expected, you brought back such important information. Come, sit down, and say slowly, we have time to conquer the Chu army. ”
Where do you dare to sit on a pound of water? He respectfully stood in front of Sima Cuo and reported: "General Sima, as soon as I got the specific deployment of the Chu army's operation, I took the risk of escaping and personally sent the information back to the general headquarters. He solemnly presented the bamboo slip and said, "This is the battle plan of Zhuang Ji, the supreme general of the Chu army's western expedition, please take a look at it." ”
Sima glanced at the battle map on the bamboo slip, and said suspiciously: "Strange, the Chu army is accustomed to water warfare, and there is water all around Wushan today, why does he use so many land soldiers to deal with Wushan?" ”
Yijin Shui was afraid that Sima would doubt the accuracy of the information and bring trouble to himself, so he tried his best to argue: "General Sima, when I was in the Chu army, I heard them say that going up in the direction of Bawu, the waters of the river are too narrow, which is not conducive to water warfare. In the past, the Chu army fought water battles in Wuyue, all of which were incomparably wide rivers and lakes, and they had never fought on such a narrow surface as the upper reaches of the river, so they were not sure of victory, so they abandoned them. ”
"Oh, that's right, this Zhuang Ji is flexible in his use of soldiers, I've heard of it." Sima Cuo finally understood, and said with joy on his face, "They think that the water surface is narrow and difficult to fight, is it that the cliffs and cliffs of Wushan are easy to fight?" is really a pig-headed general, playing soldiers on land is the strength of our Qin army, and he Zhuang Ji just chose to confront the strength of our army. Unbelievable, inconceivable. It seems that he only cares about one and doesn't care about the other. Haha......" He handed over the information to the military advisor and said, "Go, since the Chu army likes to play on land, we will strengthen the land forces and have a good time with them." Hey, by the way, did the two Chu soldiers who were captured confess? ”
The military advisor Deng Jiehou replied: "According to my observation, the one named Ding Huaiyue is timid and afraid, and the other is called ...... Oh, yes, it's hard to call Lin Zida's mouth. General Sima, looking at it from below, you still have to give them something spicy, otherwise, it will be difficult to get useful information. ”
Sima Cuo waved his hand and said, "Well, it's up to you to do this." I just want results, effective intelligence. ”
Deng Jiehou "snapped" with both feet and said, "Yes, general." After he walked out of the door quickly, he turned around and reached the prison cell, and said to the prison, "Take Ding Huaiyue and Lin Zida to the interrogation room, and I will interrogate them myself." ”
Ding Huaiyue wore a disheveled hair, his face was black and gray, and he sat listlessly in the interrogation position.
The other was a big forest, and a pair of bright eyes were shining on his dusty face, and he glared at Deng Jiehou on the stage and said, "What kind of ghost do you want to do?" Tell you, my Great Chu army is about to surround you, you are the tail of a rabbit, you can't grow. ”
Deng Jiehou slapped the table angrily and shouted, "What's it called?" It's really a big forest, and there are all kinds of birds. Tell you that the forest is not big, no matter how hard you are today, unreasonable, don't blame Lao Tzu for being polite, tomorrow morning the whole city will see your bird corpse at the city gate. Believe it or not? ”
Lin Zi raised his head and replied, "What about the letter? What if you don't believe it? Since Lao Tzu came to Wushan, he didn't think about going back? If you want to kill, you will be scraped, but if you want to get any information from Lao Tzu's mouth, do your sweet dreams! ”
Ding Huaiyue looked at Lin Zida so tough, trembled with fright, and reminded: "Zida, speak quietly to the big officials." Interrogation in the house, there is something to say. ”
"That's right, your colleague is the one who understands." Deng Jiehou changed his face and said, "There are not many people now, locked in one room, you honestly say, God knows, the three of us know, what are you afraid of." Okay, now Lin Zida answers, what is the purpose of your visit this time? 166 Reading Network
