Gao Cheng said his reasoning, looked at Yu Wentai, and looked quite innocent.

Yuwentai looks like he is about to lose his temper and because he really can't do this, he tries his best to endure it. It even makes people feel that he endures so much heartache.

"That's fine. Since my uncle said so, I can also withdraw my troops. Just ask my uncle to go back to Yecheng with me, and he will still be a high-ranking official, at least no worse than Hou Wanjing. Seeing that he had nothing to say, Gao Cheng gave him an idea. It's not so much an idea as an implicit irony.

"Brother Cheng won't save me a little face?" Yu Wentai asked with a gloomy face.

Gao Cheng didn't speak, looking at him, still with that rather innocent look.

"That's fine. That being the case, Brother Cheng blames me. Yu Wentai said lightly, although he was helpless, he still did not change his calm attitude. Seeing that Gao Cheng was still staring speechlessly, he said, "The situation is like this, it is inevitable that there will be such a battle between me and Brother Cheng." I set up a position to wait for Brother Cheng. ”

This night, Chen Yuankang has been guarding outside Yuwentai's sleeping tent. He didn't know that Gao Cheng, the general in the tent, lay on the couch and his clothes all night, and he didn't sleep well. It is the great prime minister Yu Wentai, who lies on the ground, but sleeps on his feet.

It wasn't until the sky was about to dawn that Gao Cheng fell asleep. He rarely suffers from insomnia, but for some reason, he couldn't sleep last night. When he was about to sink into a deep sleep, he suddenly felt someone sitting on the edge of the couch, slowly leaning down beside him, and the warm breath of that person was so clear in his ears. But he couldn't open his eyes anyway.

"Brother Cheng, my brother is in Weibei, waiting for Brother Cheng to come to the decisive battle." This is Yuwentai's voice.

Gao Cheng heard this sentence clearly in a dazed sleep, and seemed to feel that he nodded slightly in agreement.

The sky was bright and white, Chen Yuankang rushed into the sleeping tent, and saw Shizi and Yi lying on the couch, still asleep. Chen Yuankang strode up and knelt down in front of the couch and leaned over and called, "Shizi." Gao Cheng did not reflect. Chen Yuankang saw that he was sleeping peacefully, and he was afraid that he could not be woken up by calling softly, so he called hard, "General! General! Gao Cheng still didn't wake up from his sleep.

At this time, hearing someone coming in behind him, Chen Yuankang turned around vigilantly, and saw that it was Hou Jing, Hou and the father and son who had already walked to the couch, and also leaned over to look at the sleeping Gao Cheng. So Chen Yuankang stretched out his hand and pushed Gao Cheng, and called loudly, "General! General! At this time, Hou Jing walked up a few steps and leaned over again to take a closer look.

Gao Cheng finally turned over, originally lying on his side, facing the outside of the couch, but now lying flat. Chen Yuankang then pushed and called again and again, and Gao Cheng slowly opened his eyes, looking sleepy. When he opened his eyes, his body didn't move, he just lay there and looked around as far as his eyes could see.

"General, this is Yuwen Black Otter's sleeping tent, he invited the general to sleep with him last night." Chen Yuankang is very white and high-minded. I knew that he had just woken up, in a trance, and did not know where he was.

Hou Jing looked down at Gao Cheng on the couch without moving or speaking. He was curious, what did Yuwentai say to Gao Cheng last night?

Hou He saw Gao Cheng wake up like a beauty after sleeping, and heard Chen Yuankang say that he slept in the same bed, and couldn't help but bow his head and laugh secretly. I was already thinking about it.

Gao Cheng's body moved, and Chen Yuankang hurriedly helped him up. I accidentally looked up and saw that Shizi's hair bun was slightly messy, but I couldn't take care of such a trivial matter at this time.

"Where's the Yuwen Black Otter?" Gao Cheng asked with a frown. He found that there was not a single person from the Western Wei Dynasty in the tent, all of them were his own people.

"General, Yuwen Black Otter left the camp early in the morning, saying that he had an agreement with the prince last night, and he would go to Weibei first to set up a formation and wait for the prince." Chen Yuankang replied.

"What?! Yuwen Black Otter is gone?!! Gao Cheng shouted loudly and immediately jumped up from the couch.

"The general can immediately go out of the customs and lead the iron cavalry to chase after him with the governor. Rob and kill the Yuwen black otter on the way. Chen Yuankang said his plan.

"The general is bad!" Hou Jing immediately broke off and said.

Gao Cheng was thinking about it, and was suddenly startled by Hou Jing's drink, and said with a little dissatisfaction, "What does Situ mean?" ”

"Who is the Yuwen Black Otter? How can the great general compare himself with him? Hou Jing was obviously very angry, and glanced at Chen Yuankang inexplicably as he spoke, "Yuwen Black Otter is the **** who splits the society, and the general is the pillar of peace and stability, do you have to act perversely to win a battle?" So even if the battle is won, what is the use of it? The general should compete with the Yuwen Black Otter in front of the battle, capture it alive, and bring it back to Yedu. Otherwise, how can the world know whether the Yuwen black otter is really dead or fake, and it is inevitable that there will be people who will learn the behavior of the Yuwen black otter. ”

Gao Cheng seemed to be listening to Hou Jing's words, but he didn't seem to listen. He thought in his heart that if he chased after him in a hurry, he would definitely be able to catch up with Yuwentai, but what Hou Jing said also made sense, with the authority of a general, he was unwilling to do such a thing. He still wanted to get out of the customs first, and then he would go straight to Weibei with Gao Aocao in full gear. At the same time, he could order someone to send a message to Murong Shaozong of Pujin Pass, asking him to cross the river into the hinterland of Guanzhong and take Chang'an directly. In this way, the two roads can go hand in hand, and the merit of the world can be achieved. This is what he thinks in his heart, the strategy to deal with Yuwen Black Otter openly.

"General......" Chen Yuankang still wanted to persuade, but he saw that the general stopped him with gestures.

"Out of the customs." Gao Cheng walked out of the tent.

Luoshui east through the north of Shafu, its Fu east and west eighty miles, north and south thirty miles, the common name of "Shayuan". The area within a radius of hundreds of miles is lush with vegetation, countless jujube trees, egrets fly by from time to time, and the sun is always very quiet when the sun sets. Because it is sparsely populated, there is a sense of primitive obscurantism.

This is not entirely based on feeling, Yu Wentai has seen the stone axe that the general has picked up. He had also imagined in his heart whether there really were ancient humans who lived and multiplied here. Today's bright moon has shone on the ancients. One day, he will also become an ancient man in the eyes of future generations, I don't know what future generations will say about him?

The newborn morning sun seemed to have the laziness of not waking up, and finally climbed to the place where the water and the sky met, and then stopped and refused to go further. In the early hours of summer, it is very cool and even slightly cold by the Weishui River. Yu Wentai watched intently at the rising sun through the reeds.

He didn't set up a formation as promised, but he was indeed waiting for the general Gao Cheng.

This place is called Weiqu, and it is on the edge of Weishui. According to Li Bi's strategy, he made detailed arrangements, and the soldiers and soldiers of the Western Wei Army were deeply hidden in the grass. The Western Wei army had few soldiers and lacked food, and now they were forced to fight against the water, and they had long held the heart of death. Because they all know that even if they don't fight to the death against the East Thief, they may not be able to survive this autumn of food shortage. If this battle is won, it may be a way to live as a gift from God.

Li Bi, Zhao Gui, Yu Jin and others also separated from each other and set up an ambush with their own people. Everything was ready, just waiting for the arrival of the Eastern Wei army, and the governors and generals led their men and horses to attack it, and caught the Eastern Wei army from afar by surprise in one fell swoop.

Wait, starting at dawn. And waiting is the most tormenting. I don't know when the Eastern Wei army will come. I don't even know if the Eastern Wei army will come. Even Yu Wentai was not very sure in his heart, whether his speech state was seen through by Gao Cheng that day. Is Gao Cheng a person who would take such an agreement to heart? But the only thing he can do now is wait. Wait, wait, wait until Gao Cheng comes.

Of course, the people who were waiting didn't know that in fact, Gao Cheng, the general of the Eastern Wei Dynasty, was already on his way to Shayuan. At this time, Gao Cheng had already ordered someone to send a message to Murong Shaorong of Pujin Pass, ordering him to cross the river and go west. He was to act according to the strategy he had already planned in his mind.

Seeing that the sky was about to be dusk, the Metropolitan Governor Gao Aocao walked on the horse and looked at this large area of sand and meadow, not knowing what he was thinking, only to see him frowning slightly.

Chen Yuankang slowly followed, and his heart was not very stable.

"Fu Gong." After he followed, he walked side by side with Gao Aocao and called out.

"Changyou, when did the general order to set up camp?" Gao Aocao asked.

"Fu Gong, the sky is about to be dusk, the forest here is deep and the grass is dense, I'm afraid it is not suitable to do it again. It's just that the general has not ordered the camp to be camped, can the prince of the government join me in advising the general? It's better to set up camp first, and then order the scouts to find out the news, and then make a decision when they come back. ”

"Yes, that Yuwen Black Otter is not a loyal and virtuous person, why should he keep the agreement with him?" Gao Aocao knew in his heart that if Gao Cheng made a mistake, he would also be responsible.

Seeing Gao Aocao and Chen Yuankang whispering in front of them, Hou Jing, Hou and father and son in the back were also whispering.

"My lord, what if the general is defeated?" Hou He asked.

Hou Jing noticed that there was no one behind him, so he whispered, "If the general is defeated, we will be to conquer the Yuwen Black Otter." ”

This may sound prosaic, but it actually has a lot of meaning. If Gao Cheng is really defeated, Hou Jing leads his troops to attack Yuwentai, that is, to reap the benefits. Even if Yuwentai defeats Gao Cheng at this time, I am afraid that he will not be able to fight Hou Jing again.

At this time, the mount of the great general Gao Cheng stopped. He sat on his horse and looked around, carefully looking at the terrain. He was already keenly aware of the danger and murderous aura, and then he made a decision based on it in his heart.

Chen Yuankang and Gao Aocao were not far from each other, and they also followed at this time. Neither of them spoke, and like the general Gao Cheng, they carefully considered the terrain in front of them. Chen Yuankang was okay, Gao Aocao immediately felt a different atmosphere, and couldn't help blurting out, "General, I'm afraid there is fraud." ”

Chen Yuankang immediately became alert.

Gao Aocao's words broke through the fog in Gao Cheng's heart that had not yet been cleared. He also felt different, but he didn't feel it as clearly as Gao Aocao. While thinking about what Yuwentai said that night, he could still say calmly, "Metropolitan Governor, Yuwen Black Otter and I will make an appointment to fight a decisive battle in Weibei, it should be here." ”

Three people look here together. On one side is the endless sandy meadow, on the other side is the dense jujube forest, and further on the reeds and barren grass are mixed with mud, and then you will reach the Wei River. Such a terrain, not to mention a famous general like Gao Aocao, even Gao Cheng himself can see that it is full of dangers. The terrain chosen by Yuwen Tai is favorable to him, but it is very unfavorable to him. If he really set up an ambush as an ambush, even if Yuwentai has few soldiers, he may not really be his opponent. There are too many examples of doing more with less.

"General, why don't you retreat to camp in the sandy meadow?" Chen Yuankang glanced at the relatively wide sandy grass and made a suggestion.

Gao Cheng didn't speak. He thought to himself, what if Yuwentai had really set up an ambush in the reeds and jujube forests? According to his judgment, Yuwentai could not exceed 10,000 people, but he brought tens of thousands of iron horses. What's more, if the limited forces in Yuwentai's hands are divided and ambushed, the strength will be so weak that it is almost worth mentioning. The purpose of the ambush was to take advantage of the enemy's unpreparedness and attack his vital points. He could now think of Yuwentai's ambush, what tricks could he conjure up again? If he didn't get close to Weiqu and Zaolin, and let Yuwentai hide there, how long could he hide?

At this time, Hou Jing and Hou He, father and son, also followed. Seeing that the three people in front of him were standing side by side, talking from time to time, Hou Jing drove his horse to Gao Cheng's side. Gao Cheng saw that Hou Jing was coming, and glanced at him without speaking. Hou Jing immediately saw the hesitation on Gao Cheng's face.

"Why didn't the general move forward?" When Gao Cheng was about to give the order to set up camp, Hou Jing asked.

"It's getting dark, you can camp first, and then make a decision tomorrow." Gao Cheng replied to him, and subconsciously glanced at the sandy meadow that Chen Yuankang suggested camping.

"The general is wrong, how can he camp at this time?" Hou Jing was heartbroken.

"Why not? What does Situ mean? Gao Cheng didn't understand why he reacted so violently.

Gao Aocao has a look of "let's listen to how you explain". Chen Yuankang was full of vigilance.

"Doesn't the general smell one blow of anger, then decline, and exhaustion? Since the sergeants knew that the general was here to meet Yuwen Black Otter for a decisive battle, and knew that Xikou had already set up a position to wait for me to come, how could he retreat from the battle? If you camp today, when will you fight again? How to boost morale when the time comes? It is better to choose the day than to hit the day, and it is better to choose the time to collide, presumably the thief did not think that the general would come from afar to fight, so fast. Yuwen Black Otter must also think that the general will follow the common sense that he will camp first and fight again. Was the general really caught by Yuwen Black Otter? Or is there someone who has no insight in the first place, but dares to give the general an idea? ”

Hou Jing's words made Gao Aocao's mind move. He also felt that what Hou Jing said had some truth. Even if he really knew that Yuwentai had the intention to deceive, he just chose a place to ambush, and because of the small number of troops, he could only choose a quick battle and fight a surprise battle with an unstable foothold. He can also be regarded as an experienced battle-hardened and a pillar of the country, so Prime Minister Gao Huan values him so much. Because of this, the prince Gao Cheng is also quite patient with his brother Gao Zhongmi, and he can also be said to be promoted to his younger brother Gao Jishi. If he can take advantage of Xikou's inferiority, destroy the Yuwen Black Otter in one fell swoop, and pacify Chang'an, he will not be able to do anything about himself, even his brother's future is limitless.
