Chapter 391 Suffering is a blessing, and suffering is sweet

Gao Ran is afraid of death, but he is not afraid of death either. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info military generals are fighting on the battlefield, and it is inevitable that they will die on the battlefield. If you are killed if your skills are not as good as others on the battlefield, Gao Ran is naturally not afraid. But now because he was involved in the affairs of Ying Mengxianchen, if he died unclear, Gao Ran was afraid, he didn't want to die, and a desire to survive filled Gao Ran's heart.

"Don't kill me, I say I say!" Xue Rengui's feet stepped on Gao Ran's heart, Gao Ran felt a burst of difficulty breathing, and immediately begged for mercy.

"Tell me everything you know, and if you dare to lie, I will never spare you!" Xue Rengui said coldly.

"At that time, Zhang Shigui came to Ju Yi, and I was also taken over, I was already awake at that time, and in order to survive, I deliberately pretended to be unconscious, so I heard what they said!"

Xue Rengui's eyes sharpened and said, "What did the two of them say?"

"It turned out that Zhang Shigui was sent by Lejin to spy on Ju Yi, and they ...... at that time" Gao Ran told Xue Rengui all the conversations between Zhang Shigui and Ju Yi at that time.

"So I'm a virtuous minister of Ying Meng, not a minister of Ying Meng? Is he trying to use me to make meritorious service for him? At the beginning, I only told him the identity of Xue Rengui, and I didn't expect to be exploited by him and spend a year in vain, this thief is really hateful! Xue Rengui said angrily.

A villain hurt himself, but he was still grateful to him, one year is enough time for him to do too many things, and in his own family, there is a lady who is suffering from the cold kiln. Thinking of this, Xue Rengui's iron fists clenched, and his bones made a gurgling sound.

"Xue Rengui and they framed you, what else do you have to go back to Youzhou, Youzhou can't make the best use of people, it's all a group of villains, why don't you go back to Jizhou with me!" Gao Ran was unwilling and continued to tempt Xue Rengui.

"Can't you make the best use of it? Are they all villains? Have you forgotten that Ju Yi ran over from Jizhou? If it weren't for him, would I be in this situation? Xue Rengui said coldly.

Gao Ran's face was stunned, and he actually forgot that Ju Yi was the scum who ran past Jizhou. But Gao Ran continued: "What if you are framed by Ju Yi? Zhang Shigui colluded with Ju Yi. What if you go back to Zhuoxian, there are thousands of them, and you are with me again, if they say that you colluded with me, you will not be able to argue, and you will not escape death! ”

Xue Rengui's eyes changed for a while, and finally his expression was certain: "I believe that Zhang Shigui will help me, I want to go back to Zhuo County, even if I die, I have no regrets."

"If you want to go back to Zhuo County, let me go, I won't die with you!" Gao Ran suddenly shouted.

"With you, I still have a glimmer of life, and I am really speechless without you!" Xue Rengui snorted coldly, squatted down, and hit Gao Ran on the back of the neck with a palm knife, which inevitably caused Gao Ran to change, but Xue Rengui directly knocked Gao Ran unconscious.

As it was dark today and it was already dark, Xue Rengui sat down and took out the dry food on his body and ate it. After filling his stomach, Xue Rengui thought about it: "Zhang Shigui should really help me, whether it is Ying Mengxian or Ying Meng, I must go back to Zhuo County, if Liu Yu treats me unfairly, I will fight my way out of the siege and go to Luoyang in person!"

"The heavens will descend on the people, and they must first suffer their minds, strain their muscles and bones, starve their bodies and skins, empty their bodies, and do what they do! So be tempted to endure and gain what you can't! I, Xue Rengui, have experienced this ordeal, and I must be cautious in the future and learn to recognize people! Xue Rengui read the ancient sayings of Mencius and secretly admonished himself.

"Big brother!"

"Big brother, where are you?"

At this moment, the sound of horses' hooves sounded from the south, and faintly, Xue Rengui heard a shout, Xue Rengui raised his eyebrows and immediately shouted: "Zhou Qing, I'm here!"

Zhou Qing and the others rode over, and Zhou Qing hurriedly asked: "Big brother, what is going on, Ju Yi said that eldest brother, you colluded with Gao Ran to assassinate you, and our brother didn't believe it, so he chased after him."

As soon as Xue Rengui told the four of them about the matter, Zhou Qing and the others were indignant: "Big brother, since we have Zhang Sima to help, we are willing to accompany you back to Zhuo County to see Lord Liu Yu, Ju Yi, this villain, actually framed the eldest brother like this!"

"Okay, with a few brothers with me, I, Xue Rengui, will die without regrets in my life! Let's go! Xue Rengui turned over and got on his horse, and the group headed north. Because all the boats around Yishui were collected by Lejin, Xue Rengui and others had to make a detour of more than ten miles before they found a few fishing boats, and several people went to Zhuoxian overnight.

Early the next morning, when the first camp was stationed, the cavalry came quickly to report: "Oh no, General, Yan Liang's army is heading north towards Yishui."

"Heading towards Yishui? They want to cross the Yishui to attack Zhuoxian? Ju Yi raised his eyebrows.

"That's right, they cut down trees along the way as if they were going to cross the river, and there were cavalry patrols around to guard against us, but they went lightly, so that 10,000 soldiers and horses took care of the grain and grass!" The scout arched.

"What? They actually gave up the grain and grass and moved forward lightly? Ju Yi said in shock.

"Oops, they saw through our plan and imitated our light fighting, so our tactics won't work against them!" Zhang Shigui frowned.

Ju Yi's face was pale, this tactic was thought up by him, but now it has only been three days, and it won't work?

Ju Yi had no idea at the moment, and hurriedly asked Zhang Shigui, "How is it now?"

"They left a heavily garrisoned army and horses, but there are cavalry to guard them?" Zhang Shigui asked the scout.

"No cavalry, only 10,000 foot soldiers!" The scout replied.

"Yan Liang is bent on capturing Zhuo County, and General Le Jin will definitely return to Zhuo County when he learns that his soldiers and horses are moving forward lightly, so you will return to Zhuo County with the trapped camp!" Zhang Shigui pondered.

"What about you?"

"They have 10,000 soldiers and horses left to guard the grain and grass, and they will not just wait, if they plunder Yi Nan, what should they do? Therefore I will lead the cavalry to stay and guard against them, and if they send troops to plunder, I will take the opportunity to attack and find an opportunity to cut off their back!" Zhang Shigui said in a deep voice.

"Okay, I'll take the lead to return to Zhuo County!" Ju Yi nodded.

On the other side, on the banks of the Yishui River.

On the Yishui River, boats are all over the river, stretching for miles. Soldiers and horses were mostly stationed on ships to rest, and cavalry patrolled the riverbank.

Le Jin was resting on a boat, and suddenly several cavalry rushed over and reported to Le Jin: "General, the army of Yan Liang in the rear rushed to them and marched lightly, building wood along the way, and it is estimated that they will be able to reach Yishui in half an hour."

"What about going to camp first? How come there was no raid? Le Jin asked in a deep voice.

"They don't have enough food and grass, and the cavalry around them is strictly guarded, so they can't raid if they go to camp first! However, there are only about 40,000 soldiers and horses! ”

"Are they trying to capture Zhuoxian? In this way, the situation will be very difficult, we can't delay them moving forward lightly, and now the county soldiers of Zhuoxian County have not yet gathered, let's go back to Zhuoxian quickly! Lejin immediately ordered to return to Zhuo County.

20,000 soldiers and horses immediately crossed the Yishui, and after crossing the river, Lejin ordered the boats to be cut down and burned. With the soldiers and horses, he hurried back to Zhuoxian.

Two hours later, Yan Liang's army also built boats and felled wood, crossed Yishui, leaving 500 people to guard the boats, and 40,000 horses and horses went straight to Zhuoxian. It didn't take long for Ju Yi to find a narrow river, collect boats and cross the river.

This is the case with wars, where stratagems emerge one after another, and there is no trace of them. Ju Yi's plan to go out of the city to fight and delay Yan Liang's soldiers and horses still failed, and the battlefield still had to be launched in Zhuo County.

Xue Rengui rushed back to Zhuo County first, but it was already ten o'clock in the evening of the next day. At this time, Zhuo County was like a great enemy, and the surrounding county soldiers rushed back to Zhuo County to garrison, and Liu Yu commanded from the city tower.

Xue Rengui rushed back suddenly, and Liu Yu summoned a few people and asked, "Xue Li, you are not fighting in the Juyi Army, why did you return to Zhuo County, didn't you escape from the battle?"

"My lord, the villain is not called Xue Li, but Xue Rengui!" Xue Rengui is colorful.

"Xue Rengui?" Liu Yu's face turned cold and said coldly: "Your Majesty's Ying Mengxian said that many generals and colonels in the army know about it, and I don't know when it will be leaked out for you to know, why, you also want to take this opportunity to ascend to the sky in one step?"

At this time, there are many people who pretend to be Xue Rengui, but they are all recognized by Liu Yu, because his talent is too rubbish and he is not worthy of the school examination at all. Liu Yu already had a bad impression of Xue Rengui, and as soon as Xue Rengui said this, Liu Yu became even more disgusted.

"You are obviously Xue Li, how dare you pretend to be Ying Mengxianchen?" Liu Yu said angrily.

"At the beginning, the villain came to deliver the letter, and he didn't want the relationship between the letter and the big secret, and the villain was worried that the adults would kill me and bring disaster to his wife and children, so he called himself Xue Li. But at the beginning, the messenger did not say who he was sending the letter to, and unfortunately he was killed, and the villain mistakenly opened the secret and it was also a helpless move. Isn't it loyalty that the villain is willing to risk his head and still insists on delivering the letter to the envoy? And I beg you not to neglect my own integrity because of the virtue that I lost when I opened the letter! After thinking about it for a long time, Xue Rengui finally figured out why Liu Yu couldn't get used to him, and he was also angry with Liu Yu, bowing down, neither humble nor arrogant.

Liu Yu raised his eyebrows, at the beginning, he really thought that Xue Rengui was a villain with deficient virtue and opportunism because of Xue Rengui's act of opening the letter. Therefore, in Liu Wei's second letter, it was Xue Rengui who sent the letter, and he automatically ruled out the possibility of the person in front of him.

Although Liu Yu is old-fashioned, he is not arrogant, after listening to Xue Rengui's words, he also fell into thinking, if he is really virtuous, how can he take such a big risk to send a letter? After all, it is possible to get great benefits, and it is possible to be killed and killed.

"Many people know about the search for Xue Rengui in the army, why did you come to this official today? Or is it the crux of the war? Liu Yu wondered.

"Your Excellency!" Xue Rengui arched his hand, and told Liu Yu how Ju Yi deceived him, as well as how to capture Gao Ran, wound Yan Liang with arrows, and how Ju Yi wanted to kill him yesterday, and how Zhang Shigui helped him.

"This Ju Yi, the official kindly took him in, I don't think he dared to hide the matter of Ying Mengxianchen from the official, and he still wants to be unfavorable to you!" Liu Yu said angrily.

"Xue was deceived by Ju Yi at the beginning, and every day he only wanted to be able to make meritorious contributions and resist the charge of rebelling against the ministers, Xue was loyal to the Han and His Majesty, and asked the adults to learn clearly!" Xue Rengui bowed to Liu Yu and said.

Seeing Xue Rengui's sincerity, Liu Yu hurriedly helped Xue Rengui up, and arched his hand: "At the beginning, the official didn't like you because you mistakenly dismantled the secret conformity, and this matter is the official's fault!"

Liu Yu paused and said: "But now that the war is urgent, and you are coming with Gao Ran, this official can't trust you completely!" In this way, you will stay in the mansion first, don't walk around, and when Ju Yi returns, how about the official let you confront him face to face? ”

Xue Rengui nodded after hearing this, and arched his hand: "My lord listens to me alone right now, and it's normal to believe me, even if you put me in prison, I'm convinced." However, the war in Yi Nan is urgent, and there are many loopholes in Ju Yi's strategy at the beginning, if Yan Liang's soldiers and horses also abandon Xuzhong, they will definitely not be able to delay them, I am afraid that within two days, Yan Liang's army will definitely be able to come to the city! It's understandable that adults can't believe me, but Xue has a plan, and adults must listen, otherwise Yan Liang's army will rush to Zhuo County, and the people everywhere will suffer!
