Chapter 667: The Thief Army Will Come Tonight
Since Sun Yuan saw Leng Ying in Nanjing that day, he felt very bad for him, a green-headed turtle, in his heart. Later, when I was chatting, I heard Yu Xiang talk about this guy's cowardice at sea, and he had completely classified this person as waste.
Seeing Jing Ran's plea, he sneered and said: "Joke, my Ningxiang Army has always had clear rewards and punishments, and the general is also fair and strict, Leng Ying committed a crime, and he should be beheaded according to military law, what does it have to do with you, and killing your head can't kill your neck." Don't hurry up and get out of here, Hugh is going to make noise here. ”
But Jing Ran still refused to get up, so he kept kowtowing, and tears poured out like a spring.
Seeing that he was really difficult, Sun Yuan snorted coldly and waved his hand.
The two guards stepped forward and lifted Jing Ran up from the ground, and were about to take him away.
"Let go of me, Brother Leng Ying, you can't kill you
! Suddenly, Jing Ran let out a loud shout, shook off the two guards, and put his hand into his arms.
The two guards thought that Jing Ran was going to take out their weapons, and shouted at the same time: "Bold, what are you doing?" ”
At this time, another horse came galloping and shouted: "Jing Ran, bastard, you are still doing the opposite?" ”
The person who came was none other than Tang Wenxing, the commander of the cavalry army.
Seeing that it was him, the two guards were relieved.
Tang Wenxing jumped off the horse, raised his right leg and kicked Jing Ran, scolding: "You are not small in your courage on a dog day, you dare to intercede for Leng Ying, a bear goods, you don't say anything about pleading, and you dare to be rude in front of the general." I really thought that if you killed four thieves today and made a great achievement, you would be terrible. Don't you look at what kind of place this is, do you have a part in talking? I don't reward you for your bastard behavior, the merits and demerits are offset, don't get out of here! ”
Although his words were ugly, there was a kind of appreciation for his proud subordinates in his tone, and everyone could clearly hear the meaning of protecting his shortcomings.
"Killed four thieves?" Sun Yuan raised his eyebrows and couldn't help but ask. He had long heard Yu Xiang say that this Jing Ran was a good hand, and it was because of this that Yu Xiang recommended him to come over to be his personal guard.
It's a pity, because he is a newcomer, he was sent to the army by Liang Mancang a few days ago on the grounds that a newcomer of unknown origin can be the general's personal guard, and the old man who finally knows the bottom is reliable.
Tang asked: "That's right, just before, Jing Ran's scout team encountered five thief army sentinels, and Jing Ran killed four of them alone, which is really amazing." The other four brothers complained in front of the last general just now, saying that this Jing Ran's martial arts were too high, and with him, the other brothers would not get any credit, so let the last general find another unit to place Jing Ran. ”
"And there's this statement." Sun Yuan was also happy, the soldiers in the army dared to fight and were belligerent, and they had reached the point of madness, and sometimes, they really couldn't do anything about them.
Hearing Tang Wenxing say this, the anger in Sun Yuan's heart improved, and he waved his hand at Jing Ran: "That's it, I will forgive you for the rude crime just now, go down!" Leng Ying is hateful, his sins are unforgivable, and you don't have to intercede for him. ”
In fact, Jing Ran put his hand into his arms just now not to dig out martial arts, but to take out the brocade clothes and guard waist card and driving post in his arms, to show his and Leng Ying's identities, and to save Brother Leng's life. However, he also knew that if he really took out his waist card, he and Leng Ying might die faster.
After all, anyone who is Sun Yuan will not be very happy after knowing that there are Jinyi Wei secret agents by his side
。 In his capacity, pinching himself to death is like pinching an ant to death.
However, if he didn't do anything, wouldn't Brother Leng be dead, and he would have to gamble.
Fortunately, General Tang suddenly arrived just now, and Jing Ran's hand on the waist card was released.
Tang Wenxing is now the general of Yangzhou Town, the commander of the cavalry army, and Sun Yuan's most trusted confidant. originally thought that Sun Yuan would spare the Lengying brothers when he saw his face, but he didn't want to, the military discipline of the Ningxiang Army was so strict, but there was no possibility of extrajudicial mercy.
There was a confusion in his heart, and he didn't know what to do.
Sun Yuan's voice came from his ears again: "Tang Wenxing, Governor Ma also said to a certain person, saying that Liu Chao would come over to steal the camp tonight." Have your scouts been scattered, and how big is the vigilance circle? ”
"The general can rest assured, the scouts have already been scattered, and the alert circle is twenty miles large. If the thieves came to steal the camp, they were intercepted by our soldiers before they reached the ground. After a tiring few days of travel, the general had a good night's sleep. Tang Wenxing replied confidently: "The last general will never let a thief come over." ”
As he spoke, the scorching air seemed to have frozen, and a slight breeze blew.
Sun Yuan's heart was clear: "It's very comfortable." ”
"General Sun, the wind tonight is definitely not light, maybe there will be a strong wind, my brother Leng is young and ignorant, so spare him?" It was Jing Ran who spoke, and he knelt down again.
Yu Xiang saw that this Jing Ran was still obsessed, and he was completely annoyed, and was about to order someone to tie him up, but Sun Yuan's brows furrowed and motioned for Jing Ran to continue.
Jing Ran knelt on the ground: "General, when the villain used to walk the rivers and lakes to beg for a living, he always had to come to Xuzhou and Suzhou several times a year, and the geography and climate of the mountains and rivers here have also been heard. I don't know if it's because of this piece of hilly land, every year in early May, if there is a drought, there will inevitably be a southeast wind. As soon as the east wind blew, it was very great. Chongzhen three years Xu, Su drought, when the east wind rises, the sky is dark, blowing people can not stand, the roofs of the people's houses have also been removed hundreds of rooms. This year there was a severe drought, and now there is a sudden east wind, and the villain estimates that the wind must be very strong in the middle of the night. ”
This is not a lie, Jinyiwei is doing the work of a secret agent, Jing Ran, as the general banner of Nanjing Jinyiwei Thousand Households, will go to the Huaisi area every year to inspect it, and is very familiar with the customs here
。
Sun Yuansenran said: "Jing Ran, do you dare to take responsibility for your words?" ”
Jing Ran: "General, the villain dares to use the heads of himself and my brother Leng to vouch for what he said just now." If there is no strong wind tonight, please have the general cut off the heads of both of us for disturbing the morale of the army. He said this very skillfully, but he invisibly asked Sun Yuan not to execute Leng Ying for the time being.
Sun Yuan fell his gaze on Tang Wenxing's face again, Tang Wenxing took a step forward and said in a low voice: "General, how to march on this road, where there is water, and where to garrison troops, Jing Ran is extremely familiar, and he should have come to this area often before." but the last general believed his words. ”
Sun Yuan said to Jing Ran: "Okay, just spare Leng Ying for the time being, and for his punishment, everything will be said after the war tomorrow, go down!"
Jing Ran felt a burst of ecstasy in his heart, and shouted loudly: "Thank you for the general's grace of not killing, thank you for the general's grace of not killing." At the moment, he didn't care about kowtowing and thanking him, so he rushed out like a cigarette and went to pass Sun Yuan's order to Chen Tieshan not to be executed.
"There will be a strong wind tonight......" Sun Yuan looked at the yellow dust rolled up under Jing Ran's feet, and was surprised in his heart.
This Suzhou has been so dry, not to mention that the wind is strong in the middle of the night, even if the cavalry army is marching on the open plain in the past few days, the sand and dust rolled up by the horses' hooves have covered the sky, and the visibility is only thirty meters. When the wind really blows, I don't know what it will be.
If the enemy attacks in the middle of the night, it is dark, and the scouts sent out cannot see, let alone the vigilant circle spread out for twenty miles, even if it is thirty miles, how can they find the enemy's night attack army. Even if you find out, you may not be able to report it smoothly.
Liu Chao's troops have been besieging Suzhou for many days, and the terrain of the mountains and rivers here must be clearly felt, and marching at night is not a problem for them.
Once the wind picks up, they can take the opportunity to enter the old camp of the Ningxiang Army, and then everyone is wrapped in a mess, and the battle will be a chaotic fight.
During the Cold War, due to the limitations of means of communication, once the battle turned into a melee, the commander could not control the troops at all. As for what the war will turn out to be, the devil knows. The establishment of the troops is chaotic, and no matter how well the Ningxiang Army trains on weekdays, it is useless. The two sides quickly pulled to the level of street fighting, and then, everyone could only bet on character.
If you take 10,000 steps back, even if the Ningxiang army fights all night, it will repel the enemy. But with such a strong wind and such dry weather, as long as Liu Chao is not a fool, he will inevitably set a fire in the old camp of Sun Yuan
。 No one can save this fire.
Today's Suzhou is thousands of miles away, and there is no supplement at all. Once the Ningxiang army loses its baggage and horses, it will be defeated in this battle.
This is probably Liu Chao's purpose, if what Jing Ran said is true.
Tang Wenxing and Yu Xiang also thought of this, and their faces changed.
"Give the order to go down and let the soldiers hurry up and sleep. When the time comes, bury the pot and make rice. Sun Yuan ordered: "Before the time, all the cavalry got on their horses and went to the back of the hill to ambush." ”
He pointed to a circle of hills in the distance and said, "When the time comes, if the enemy army attacks, the cavalry army will immediately come out." It's good that Liu Chao doesn't come tonight, if he comes, this is where he will be buried. ”
"Yes." Tang Wenxing arched his hand, ran away quickly, and went to arrange himself.
Sun Yuan: "Xiaoyu." ”
"General."
"You go and inform Governor Ma that he thinks what he said is reasonable, maybe Liu Chao is really going to come to sneak attack, and ask him to strengthen his vigilance. Once the thief army arrives, our army will clean it up for him. As for the Lufeng Army, if you guard the camp, you don't have to come out to fight. At that time, the situation is too chaotic, as long as our army sees the infantry, it will be killed as a thief army one by one, and if it hurts a friendly soldier by mistake at that time, it will not be beautiful. ”
Speaking of this, the expression on Sun Yuan's face became cold: "Time is pressing, it is urgent to support Kaifeng, General Ben has no time to rub on Liu Chao, and must solve Liu Chao within one day." ”
"Yes." Xiao Yu also jumped on the war horse and rushed out.
Sun Yuan: "The rest of the people, go back to the camp with a certain person and hurry up to sleep." ”
After returning to the big tent of the Chinese army, Sun Yuan lay on the felt for a long time, only to feel that the tent was stuffy and hot, and sweat gushed out like a spring, but how could he sleep.
Strange to say, the light wind that had started before gradually stopped. The dust was falling from the sky, and when you looked inside, the roof of the tent outside was already covered with a layer of earthy yellow.
At this time, Sun Yuan was suspicious in his heart: Will there be a strong wind when the child is born, will Jing Ran be full of nonsense? Can I make such a big deployment because of his words?
