Chapter 180: Surprise (4)

On the first day of the ninth month in 311 A.D., the sub-hour was three quarters and two minutes (one hour is equal to eight quarters.) The moment was divided into three minutes, at this time about half past one in the morning) Tongguan, the alarm bell has sounded one after another throughout Tongguan.

Zhao Ling stood on the high wall of Tongguan, looking at the people and horses who were getting closer and closer not far away, the whole person tensed, and suddenly, those people and horses stopped moving forward......

Zhao Yi on the side was also sounded by the tense atmosphere in front of him, and the people and horses not far away were not only orderly, but also judging from their unhurried appearance after stopping, it seemed that they were going to be stationed not far from them......

And it was this seemingly unhurried posture that made Zhao Ling and all the Tongguan defenders frightened......

"General...... Whose family do you think this is? ”

"It's different, it's really extraordinary, it's worthy of being the descendant of King Shi'an!"

"Liu Yao, the king of Shi'an?!! He's also here? Checkmate! How did you find out? ”

"Didn't you look at their formation? A typical Hun wedge-shaped (generally consisting of several triangles) cavalry formations! ”

"Well, yes, it's an attack formation with three arrows."

"Hmph, this is King Shi'an's Liu Yao's people, others are generally double arrows, only King Shi'an likes to use three-arrow attack formations, I also heard General Zhao Ran talk about this."

"Three arrows, so powerful, how sharp this formation should be used to tear apart the enemy camp......"

"Sharpness is just one thing, and the most powerful part of this formation is Liu Yao's battlefield command ability and generals' ability to cooperate, think about it, once this army acts, especially the cavalry rushes, you can't hear any command at all, not only that, these three arrows also need to cooperate with each other, once there is a problem with the attack of one arrow, how the other two arrows cooperate, how not to fight their own people, it is difficult to reconcile, this Shi'an Wang Liu Yao is definitely not a thing in the pool......"

"So what do we do now?"

"General Zhao ordered before leaving, let me act cheaply, but we must let Tongguan be in our hands!"

"What does the general mean?"

Zhao Ling really didn't have any good ideas for a while, this Liu Cang and Liu Yao actually came, and he was already sandwiched between these two kings, and if he didn't handle it well, he would have to move his head, especially because he wanted to keep Tongguan, he had offended His Royal Highness Liu Cang, the prince......

Zhao Yi saw that Zhao Ling had been silent, and he couldn't say anything, so he had to wait silently......

Suddenly, Zhao Ling spoke: "Zhao Yi, I'll go to the military camp of Liu Yao, the king of Shi'an, you go to appease His Royal Highness the prince first, don't say too much, just say that the king of Shi'an is here, and everything else will be said when I come back."

"Yes, General, is this alarm bell going to stop ringing?"

"No need, it's not bad to scare His Royal Highness the Prince, hahaha!"

It didn't take long for Tongguan to guard the mansion and Liu Cang's residence

"Zhao Yi, what did you say? Liu Yao, the king of Shi'an, is here? ”

"Yes, His Royal Highness the Prince! General Zhao Ling has already gone to King Shi'an first! ”

"Bold Zhao Ling, he dared to go first! Then what am I as a prince?! ”

Chen Yuanda was also a little displeased, such a thing, a small Tongguan temporary Taishou dared not inform His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to go to King Shi'an first, did this Zhao Ling want to provoke the contradiction between His Royal Highness the Prince and King Shi'an? What a vicious villain! ”

After Liu Ya heard the news, she became unusually calm, except for the two restless eyes that kept rolling......

"Your Highness is angry, our general said, whether it is His Royal Highness King Shi'an, he can't confirm yet, because the sky is too dark, I can't see the other party's flag clearly, and I can only guess from the three-arrow formation listed by the other party......"

As soon as Liu Cang heard that this was the case, his anger slowly dissipated a little, and he only heard Zhao Yi continue: "The general is worried that the Jin army is deliberately doing this, so he will go to investigate first, and then report to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince when he has detailed information!" ”

"Hehe, then there is still your general!?"

"Don't dare, serve His Royal Highness the Son of Heaven, and never give up!"

When Liu Cang heard this, he couldn't help but snort coldly in his nose.

"His Royal Highness the Prince, the villain will go to the pass now and wait for General Zhao to come back, and if there is any news, His Highness will be notified as soon as possible, and the villain will retreat first......"

Liu Cang waved his hand impatiently, signaling Zhao Yi to disappear in front of him quickly.

Zhao Yi saw that Liu Cang didn't mean to leave him, so he quickly and respectfully retreated, and then hurried towards the pass.

After Chen Yuanda saw Zhao Yi leaving, he personally closed the door of Liu Can's residence, and then said to Liu Cang unhurriedly: "Your Highness, Liu Yao, the king of Shi'an, is accustomed to using the three-arrow cavalry formation, which is known to us in the Han Kingdom, I think it should be him who has arrived, what are your Royal Highness's plans?" ”

"What are you going to do? I can't even be the master of this Tongguan, how old is he Liu Yao? It's just an adopted son picked up by my grandfather, and I still have to call him uncle! Why didn't he die there when he fled to Silla and Baekje when he was young!? ”

"Your Highness, this is a bad word!"

"Humph!"

"Your Highness, according to the old minister, Liu Yao is actually late......"

When Liu Cang heard Chen Yuanda say this, his heart suddenly brightened, yes, he was indeed late!

"Your Highness, when Zhao Ling confirms whether she is really Queen Shi'an, Your Highness can ask when you meet her, whether you will march together or one after another......"

"Of course there is a difference! To march together is to have a heart of disobedience! If he agrees to let our army go first, he will only be our reinforcement, and he will benefit His Highness without harm! ”

Liu Cang was obviously stunned, the joints in this were Chen Yuanda so little, it's really like this, didn't this father ask me to attack Chang'an, just to make more military achievements? He Liu Yao just took Luoyang, if he wants Chang'an, isn't it a rebellion? Why didn't I see my father's plan? Ha ha! This Chen Yuanda really deserves to be his father's henchman!

Thinking of this, Liu Cang also regained his due bearing, and said slowly: "What Master Chen said, it is indeed a country that has become a country!" ”

As soon as Liu Ya heard Chen Yuanda's analysis, she immediately broke out in a cold sweat, she had fantasized about eating two meals before, pleasing Liu Cang here, and flattering Liu Yao, the king of Shi'an, over there......

Jin Zhun didn't expect that Chen Yuanda, who has always been serious, would say such a thing, it seems that he can achieve his position, and there is really no clean ......

Outside Tongguan, Liu Yao's army

Fu Hu saw that Liu Yao did not order an attack on Tongguan nor did he order to rest on the spot, but only let the army stand still, what is the reason, he couldn't help it for a while, and asked You Ziyuan: "My lord, we neither attack nor camp, what is the king's plan?" ”

"I don't know!"

"I don't know?! I thought you were a roundworm in the king's stomach! ”

When You Ziyuan heard Fu Hu's words, he was immediately amused, and said in his heart: This reckless man is not stupid!

At this time, there was a person who looked like a small school and hurried over and shouted: "Report! There was a person from Tongguan who said that there was an emergency military situation! ”

You Ziyuan's brows furrowed, someone from Tongguan? Could it be that Tongguan has changed hands?

"Quick, bring him to me!"
