Chapter 997 is all staying up all night waiting
At night, Xiangyang City fell silent.
The gates creaked open, and the blackened soldiers marched out of the city neatly and quickly. During the whole process, not a single soldier made a sound, only the sound of a quick and swift running.
Although the movement is large, after all, it is already night, and the impact is not great.
However, the Hero Building got the news.
Heroes Building, Backyard.
Wu Huangchao's attendant who came to deliver the message asked, "When the army went out of the city, did you find Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang?" ”
The attendant thought for a while and said, "After Liu Bei, Zhuge Liang and Yi went to see Liu Biao, they went to Cai's mansion with Cai Mao. When it was almost dark, the four of them went to the barracks together. The lowly position believes that the people who lead the troops must be these four people. Even if it is not clear who is leading the troops at night, there are definitely them. ”
Wu Huang groaned: "It's so late and marching in a hurry, is it because you have found something?" ”
The attendant interjected and said, "Landlord, could it be that the situation of Lumen Mountain was leaked and discovered, right?" ”
"What did you say?"
When Wu Huang heard this, he was very surprised, and instinctively asked again.
The attendant immediately repeated it, and then said: "Liu Biao's army was sent out, but Xiangyang was not in danger, which is a very strange thing. If something goes wrong, it is a demon, and he always feels that Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang have a plan, otherwise they would not have deliberately chosen to march at night. ”
Wu Huang thought about the soldiers surrounding Lumen Mountain, his body couldn't help but shudder, and said: "I'd rather believe this matter, and let the people of Lumen Mountain evacuate temporarily." After a pause, Wu Huang muttered to himself again: "No, you can't stay in one place all the time in the future, you must often let the senior brother change places, otherwise it will be too dangerous." ”
He said that he would do it, and immediately wrote a letter and asked the carrier pigeon to send it to Lumen Mountain.
After the thing was done, Wu Huang still couldn't calm down.
Now it's dark, the gates are closed, and the army can go out of the city, but they, the common people, can't go out of the city. Therefore, Wu Huang could only wait for the news, and wait for the city gate to open tomorrow before he could listen to the situation.
……
On the way, Cai Mao smiled and said, "Kong Ming, this encirclement and suppression of Wang Can is all thanks to your news." ”
Zhuge Liang said: "General Cai, whether it is for the king of Chu or for the lord of my family, I hope to kill Wang Can and change the current situation. Having said that, this time it was General Cai who personally led the troops, and the great merit should have been obtained by General Cai, what does it have to do with me? ”
Zhuge Liang had a look of wisdom beads in his hand, as if confirming that Wang Can would definitely die.
After hearing this, Cai Mao couldn't help but glance at Liu Bei.
At this time, he felt that Liu Bei was very cute, because of Liu Bei, he had the opportunity to kill Wang Can.
This opportunity was brought by Liu Bei.
In the process of hurrying, a strange idea suddenly rose in Cai Mao's mind. He is now leading the army to Lumen Mountain with great momentum, but in the end he finds that Wang Can is not in Lumen Mountain, so what should he do? For a while, Cai Mao suffered some gains and losses. He was looking forward to killing Wang Can in his heart, but he was a little scared.
Cai Mao said worriedly: "Kong Ming, what should I do if Wang Can is not in Lumen Mountain?" ”
Zhuge Liang shook his head and said, "General Cai, Wang Can must be in Lumen Mountain." ”
"What if not?"
"It can't be there, it must be there!"
Cai Mao and Zhuge Liang argued about this, and in the end, even Liu Bei was infected and joined the war group. Liu Bei's hatred for Wang Can is unforgettable, and he firmly believes that Wang Can is in Lumen Mountain.
There is no other reason, this is his hope.
At the end of the argument, Zhuge Liang threw out a killer weapon and said confidently: "General Cai, you put a hundred hearts." In the afternoon, when I was resting in your mansion, I had already sent a sentry close to Lumen Mountain to monitor Wang Can's movements. Until now, no one has come out of Lumen Mountain, Wang Can must still be hiding in the mountain, there will be no mistake. ”
This is the reason why Zhuge Liang insisted.
But Zhuge Liang didn't know that when he left Longzhong for Xiangyang, Wang Can also thought of ambushing him and Liu Bei on the way back to Longzhong, so when Zhuge Liang hadn't sent a sentry yet, Wang Can had already quietly left Lumen Mountain with a large group of soldiers and set up an ambush on the way between Longzhong and Xiangyang.
Zhuge Liang missed the time, and the sentinel sent naturally thought that Wang Can had not descended the mountain.
As everyone knows, Wang Can has already gone down the mountain.
When Cai Mao heard this, his spirit suddenly rose, and he lifted Zhuge Liang so badly that he even thought of this layer, it was really clever, he was full of smiles, and said happily: "Okay, as long as Wang Can doesn't go down the mountain, we will have a chance." ”
Zhuge Liang glanced at Cai Mao, and a contemptuous smile flashed at the corner of his mouth.
Cai Mao's durability is okay to train the navy, but the march and battle can't enter Zhuge Liang's eyes.
When more than 10,000 Chu soldiers were on the way, carrier pigeons flew to Lumen Mountain. Wang Can left with all his strength, but left behind four people who were responsible for delivering information. Among them, the leader is named Du Twelve, who was personally trained by Wang Yue in the past, shrewd and capable, and is Shi A's right-hand man.
When he got the news from Wu Huang, he was extremely surprised.
At that moment, Du Twelve dealt with the things left in Lumen Mountain and immediately retreated.
The situation is so grim that there is simply no need to care about so much.
Du Twelve also felt fortunate in his heart, fortunately, Wang Can took everyone to set up an ambush. If all the people are still in Lumen Mountain, once they choose to leave, they will definitely be discovered. Now there are only four of them, and they are dressed in black, as long as they find a corner, they can quietly leave Lumen Mountain.
These four people are all proficient in swordsmanship, especially good at assassination, and are more accustomed to hiding their tracks, so they left Lumen Mountain easily and did not attract the attention of Zhuge Liang's sentinels. When Cai Mao led nearly 10,000 soldiers to Lumen Mountain, he ordered: "Kong Ming, the lord said that I was only leading the troops, and the details were arranged by you, and now I will leave it to you to arrange." ”
Zhuge Liang nodded, and directly asked the soldiers to surround Lumen Mountain.
But all he did was surround and did not attack.
At the same time, Zhuge Liang called the surrounding sentinels back to inquire about the situation. After he finished arranging, he said with a smile: "General Cai, it's night, and it's too dark for the march, so I can only surround it." Now it is just a net to lay a net to enclose Lumen Mountain, so that Wang Can cannot jump out, and wait for dawn to launch an attack. ”
Cai Mao said: "Well, okay, attack after dawn." ”
A group of people began to wait for a long time.
Late at night, Liu Bei suddenly said: "Kong Ming, although we came out at night and quickly surrounded Lumen Mountain, Wang Can has no chance to escape. However, now that we are stationed at the foot of the mountain with great fanfare and have also surrounded Lumen Mountain, it is impossible for Wang Can not to know. But you see there's no movement in the mountains, something is wrong, something is wrong. ”
I have to say that Liu Bei is an old Jianghu.
There was no movement in the mountains for a long time, and he felt a little strange.
If Wang Can found that the mountains and forests were surrounded, it would be impossible not to find a way to break through.
Zhuge Liang smiled and said: "Lord, it's not that Wang Can didn't move, but that he hid." Rest assured, when we attack after dawn, it will be useless for them to hide. ”
Liu Bei nodded, and then closed his eyes to recuperate.
There are tens of thousands of soldiers in Lumen Mountain, waiting for the dawn.
On the other side, on the official roads of Longzhong and Xiangyang, Wang Can's spirit was a little sluggish. Not only that, Dian Wei's wide eyes closed from time to time, and then suddenly opened again, looking very tired. Only Shi Ah is very energetic, this guy is sleeping in the afternoon, and he is full of energy and ready to take revenge.
Zhuge Liang sent troops at night, while Wang Can sent troops at noon, and the time difference was too far.
Zhang Hu couldn't help but yawn and said in a low voice: "Lord, the last general estimates that Zhuge Liang and Sun Qian will stay in the city for the time being and will not return, it is estimated that tomorrow or the day after tomorrow." ”
He shook his dazed head and said, "No matter, let's sleep for a while." ”
Wang Can also felt that he couldn't support it anymore and had to change his strategy.
He looked at Shi Ah and said, "Shi A, this must go on, and it must be changed. You are in good spirits now, take ten soldiers to sentry and watch for movement, while the rest of the soldiers are all asleep. After two hours, you will select ten more soldiers to sentry, and so on to rest and keep our spirits, otherwise we will not be able to sleep even if we bring enough dry food to fill our stomachs. ”
Shi Ah immediately agreed, and then adjusted in time.
In the dark night, the people at the foot of Lumen Mountain stayed up late waiting, and Shi A also stayed up late waiting.
