Chapter Seventy-Three: The Bait

The sky slowly darkened, a crescent moon hung in the night sky, and when I looked up, the crescent moon seemed to pass through the clouds, and the distant mountains and the Great Wall were still faintly visible at first, and finally completely melted into the darkness. Zhao Kuo returned to the room and talked to Lian Ting about wine and night, the lights were lit in the room, and the furnishings were very simple, but it was already very comfortable for Zhao Kuo, after all, he had been sleeping in the open for more than ten days, and he could finally sleep on the bed tonight.

"Brother Lian's cloak is almost a strip of cloth, why don't you change it?" Zhao Kuo found that everything on Lian Ting's body was good, but the cloak was very mismatched, and it was very old.

Lian Ting took off the cloak and said, "This cloak has a great origin, it was put on by my father himself when I was fifteen years old when I went out with my father on the expedition, unless it is really broken into strips of cloth, I will never throw it away." "Lian Ting's feelings for his father Lian Po are very sincere, and an ordinary cloak embodies the true feelings of father and son.

"Brother Lian, I went to Daliang this time, I don't know if Brother Lian has anything to teach me, don't look at me as if I have memorized the military book like a stream, but I have no experience, and I hope that Brother Lian will give me advice." Zhao Kuo said very sincerely, this is indeed his weakness, no matter what era he is, he has no experience in leading troops to fight, and looking at the situation this time, it is inevitable to fight with troops.

Lian Ting knew that Zhao Kuo had the reputation of being a horse suit, and he didn't dare to hold it up in front of Zhao Kuo, but he didn't want to be looked down upon by Zhao Kuo, after all, his father was a general with the same name as Zhao Hao, he frowned and thought about it, and said: "As far as this envoy Liang is concerned, he will definitely be attacked by bandits in the territory of Wei, and there are many bandits, and it is unlikely that Wei will send troops to rescue him, so I think it is best to divide the troops." ”

Zhao Kuo sighed and said, "How do you divide the troops?" ”

"Let's speculate first, what Wei Mu and others want is nothing more than a dowry or a woman, or both, then we must give up some of them, and use them as yang soldiers to lure Wei Mu and others' sight, and most of them will turn into yin soldiers and intersperse them, only in this way can we avoid suffering major losses." Lian Ting said.

Zhao Kuo frowned and said, "Although this plan is good, but those who turn into yang soldiers, don't they have to go and have no return, so how should I explain to the king!" Although there is no prescribed route for sending off the king this time, there is a mistake, and I can't afford this responsibility! ”

Lian Ting laughed and said, "Then you won't put yourself as a yang soldier!" If Wei Mu and the others really find you, then they will kick the iron plate, it is estimated that you can knock down all the people of Wei Mu alone, then it will create a great miracle, if you really want to do that, when the news reaches Daliang, I really want to see what the expression on Wei Ren's face is. ”

It's good that Lian Ting didn't mention it, but when he mentioned it, Zhao Kuo's eyes lit up, and he said: "If Wei Mu and the others really find me, then the relationship is good, and the killing last night is not enjoyable, but how can I let Wei Mu take the initiative to find me!" He wouldn't be that stupid! Let the brigade not chase, chase me. ”

Lian Ting coughed and said: "Then it depends on whether the chips are enough, if you take all the dowry with you, and then let the other people go down the river and walk close to the border, it will definitely be foolproof, in this way, Wei Mu can only find you to vent his anger." ”

Zhao Kuo pondered for a while, and felt that Lian Ting's suggestion was indeed feasible, with his almost invincible state, as long as Wei Mu and the others took the bait, it was guaranteed that they couldn't run away if they wanted to, and they had to kill them all, and the effect was also good, the reputation of the invincible Zhao Kuo would definitely spread, and it would be very helpful to this trip to Daliang.

Zhao Kuo and Lian Ting summed up a set of marching plans, and with this plan, Zhao Kuo smiled and said: "Brother Lian, once I meet Wei Mu and other bandits, I will definitely drive them to the territory of Zhao State, Brother Lian don't let go of this opportunity to make meritorious contributions!" ”

Lian Ting's eyes lit up and said: "Okay, I will immediately transfer troops to wait at the border, if I can suppress Wei Mu this time, I owe you a favor." "Lian Ting has tried to find opportunities to suppress Wei Mu, Zhang Bai, Broken Name and other border bandits many times, but he has never had a chance, if he can really catch those bandits this time, he really has to accept Zhao Kuo's love, as for whether Zhao Kuo can do it, he has a certain confidence, after all, he saw Zhao Kuo's courage like a god.

Zhao Kuo sent Lian Ting away, then called Tao Di over, and said: "You will divide all the dowry cars tomorrow, and then select two hundred cavalrymen who are skilled in bows and arrows, and follow me from the south road, while you will lead most of the men and horses along the border, cross Puyang, go to Guiling, and then go straight to Daliang, this road is an important town of Wei, and there will be no danger in the future." ”

Tao Di was surprised: "The second son won't go with us?" Can I do it? "Tao Di doesn't have a military position now, he is just Zhao Kuo's personal soldier, and if he wants to command these horses, his confidence is inevitably insufficient, and he has no command experience.

Zhao Kuo said with a smile: "As long as you follow my plan, there will be no danger along the way, as for you leading the team, I believe that those soldiers will not disobey my orders......." ”

There was nothing to say all night, but there was a change the next day, it turned out that Zhao Zhen learned that Zhao Kuo was going to divide the troops, so he came to see Zhao Kuo immediately, and strongly asked Zhao Kuo to take her, and the reason why Zhao Zhen was like this was persuaded by Zhao Yuan, Zhao Yuan's idea was that no matter how Zhao Kuo arranged, he couldn't get rid of the two of them, because only by following Zhao Kuo would he have a sense of security.

Zhao Kuo found that there was a little girl beside Zhao Zhen, although she was not ugly, her face was freckled, and she was surprised: "How can there be more people?" I don't think there's such a person among your maids, do I? (Signed works, please indicate if illegally reprinted)

Zhao Zhen didn't answer Zhao Kuo's question, and said: "I don't care why you divide your troops, in short, you can't leave me, you must know that the king has made a will, you must protect my safety, how can you protect me if you leave me?" ”

Zhao Kuo was speechless when asked, because what Zhao Zhen said was reasonable, King Zhao really wanted him to protect Zhao Zhen, otherwise he wouldn't have to let him come this time, but his plan couldn't include Zhao Zhen, the sword had no eyes, and the stray arrow didn't have eyes, who dared to guarantee that Zhao Zhen would be unharmed!

Zhao Zhen ignored Zhao Kuo after speaking, and went straight to the dowry convoy with Zhao Yuan, who had put on makeup, Zhao Yuan lowered his voice and said: "Don't leave Zhao Kuo no matter what, without Zhao Kuo following us, we will only be more dangerous." Zhao Yuan didn't admit death, but Zhao Kuo left a deep impression on her.

Zhao Kuo saw that Zhao Zhen was not leaving, and Tao Di over there was about to set off, so he had to agree with Zhao Zhen's choice, since Zhao Zhen took the initiative to make bait and fished Wei Mu and others to take the bait, then let her get her wish! I only hope that she won't be scared at that time, if he takes a mentally deranged Zhao Zhen to Daliang, he will not let King Wei sweep him out of the house!
