Volume 2 Fierce Battle of the Yellow Turban Chapter 386 Conspiracy City

(Cat flutter Chinese) () Ling Yan thought about it, if it wasn't for Colonel Zuo's reminder, he really didn't notice this, and thought about it again: "Then we will attack the city with all our might, break the Dingtao City, and then return to the army to attack the city of Jiyin, how about it?" ”

The expression on Colonel Zuo's face was as if Ling Yan had said something stupid, and the meaning of ridicule was even worse: "General Yan, how can you guarantee that we will be able to break the city if we attack?" ”

In fact, Ling Yan naturally didn't have full confidence that he would be able to break the city with one blow, he was also a layman for combat strategies, he knew that he must have said something a layman just now, so that Zuo Colonel showed such an expression, but he didn't like others to always treat him as a layman, so he said: "Then we will do our best, it is precisely because of the danger of breaking off that the soldiers can move forward bravely." When Ling Yan said this, he thought of the plot of "putting death and then rejuvenating" in the story of the Three Kingdoms.

Colonel Zuo's expression tended to be serious: "General Yan, when marching and fighting, you must think twice before you act, and ensure that nothing goes wrong before you can enter the army, and it is not the work of the Ming general to put your own side in such a crisis!" ”

Ling Yan was speechless, so he had to nod: "Hmm...... General Zuo is reasonable...... So what do we do? Do you attack Dingtao City and Jiyīn City in two ways? ”

Seeing that Ling Yan no longer insisted, Colonel Zuo's expression became a little more relaxed, and he shook his head and said, "No, if that's the case, I'm afraid that both roads will be broken." ”

"Why?" Ling Yan asked.

Colonel Zuo said: "General, please see, these three cities are horns of each other, Jiyīn City and Dingtao City are also connected to each other, if we divide our troops to fight, I am afraid that the troops are insufficient, then if one road is broken, the other road is dangerous, if so, I am afraid that the whole army will be destroyed." ”

Ling Yan nodded, admitting in his heart that what Colonel Zuo said was very reasonable, so he asked modestly: "Then from General Zuo's point of view, what should we do?" ”

Colonel Zuo smiled and said, "In my opinion, we can make a detour to attack Jiyiīn City, and when we break through Jiyiīn City, then we can take advantage of the victorious army and drive straight into Dingtao to attack Dingtao, if so, I believe that we will be able to take these two cities!" ”

Ling Yan admired Colonel Zuo's point of view very much, but he still had a doubt, so he asked: "What General Zuo said is very true, but if we attack Jiyiyi City, we must send troops from Taocheng to attack Grasshopper City, what should we do?" ”

Colonel Zuo said with a smile: "Dingtao City is not strong enough, we will never dare to rush to send troops, even if Dingtao sends troops, we can also return to the army to help, Ji yīn City is not far from Grasshopper City, if you return to the army in time, it will definitely be in time, in order to report the discomfort of Grasshopper City." ”

Ling Yan looked at the map and nodded again: "Hmm...... General Zuo was right. ”

Colonel Zuo was very happy: "Since General Yan also has this intention, then we must not delay, and immediately march into the army to attack the siege of Jiyīn City!" ”

Ling Yan hesitated a little, and after thinking about it, he said, "General Zuo, my plan is to be here for a few days first, and then send troops to attack the city."

Colonel Zuo frowned: "Why is that?" We have just broken through the city of Grasshoppers, and if we take advantage of this military heart to inject and send troops immediately, we will definitely be able to win a big victory! General, the opportunity for battle is fleeting, and you must not be indecisive! ”

Ling Yan nodded: "What General Zuo said is true, but I want to wait for General Kuai and the others to come here, and then discuss together how to attack." Anyway, we've won 20% in a row, so we can take a little rest. ”

Colonel Zuo was a little angry: "General Yan, when the army's morale is at its peak, he doesn't use it, but he wants to snub the army's morale, what's the reason?" Previously, I rested in Juye City, and the general stayed for me to restore my internal qi, which is a necessary thing, but after a few delays, it is not appropriate to stop now! ”

Ling Yan hurriedly said: "General Zuo, don't be angry, I just want to send troops after thinking about it thoroughly, didn't General Zuo also say that you should think about things carefully first, I think the terrain here is so complicated, I am afraid it will be ...... to send troops hastily."

Colonel Zuo was even more angry, Huo Di stood up and waved his hand vigorously: "General Yan!" Think no more! I've already thought about a lot of strategies to advance the army, can't the general still believe me in the left plan? ”

Ling Yan hurriedly stood up: "General Zuo sit down first, don't be angry, I'm just talking...... It's definitely not that I don't believe in you, General Zuo, I'm a layman in combat, and I need the general's assistance to teach me, it's just ...... Juye Castle still has a part of the troops, if this division of troops in World War II, I'm afraid I'm a little unsure, and since I sent my troops, General Kuai has always been discussing with them before the war, this time General Zuo's suggestion is definitely the best proposal, I completely agree, but I still want to discuss some details with General Kuai. ”

Zuo Xiao's face sank, and he sat down again: "Hmph! What a good counsel with those who are useless! ”

Ling Yan also sat down and said with a smile: "General Zuo, whether it is about martial arts, internal qi, or strategy, you are definitely the number one in our army, and I completely trust the general, but it is a customary procedure to discuss the promotion before sending troops, so I will be more at ease." ”

Colonel Zuo's face became darker and darker, but it was probably Ling Yan who put a high hat on him, so although he looked very angry, he didn't say anything after all.

Ling Yan saw that Colonel Zuo's mood had stabilized, so he smiled again: "General Zuo, actually, I don't send troops for the time being, and I have another plan. ”

"What's going on?" Colonel Zuo asked coldly.

Ling Yan smiled: "I plan to collect Sun Xia here. ”

Colonel Zuo frowned: "Surrendered Sun Xia? ”

Ling Yan nodded: "Yes, I see that Sun Xia's martial arts are extraordinary, and his internal qi is also very strong, so I really want him to serve us...... This matter still depends on General Zuo. ”

Colonel Zuo was silent for a long time, and then said in a deep voice: "What is the use of this Sun Xia!" The martial arts are strong, and I haven't been knocked off the horse yet! ”

Ling Yan said with a smile: "Yes, General Sun is indeed inferior to General Zuo, but I think that the general is loyal, and his martial arts are not bad compared to others, at least he is a general!" ”

Colonel Zuo looked at Ling Yan with a somewhat strange expression, and then said, "The general wants to stay in Grasshopper City, but just for this matter?" ”

Ling Yan scratched his head: "The main thing should be this matter, and I also want to wait for all the generals to get together before entering the army." ”

Colonel Zuo's expression was very strange: "General, if this is the case, aren't you afraid that the Yellow Turban Army will take precautions and transfer troops to aid Dingtao City, and it will be even more difficult to attack the city at that time?" ”

Ling Yan thought for a moment: "I think, it shouldn't be, if they find out, even if we attack Jiyīn City now, and then attack Tao City, I'm afraid they will be prepared." ”

Colonel Zuo frowned tightly and waved his hand: "Okay!" Since the general has decided so, then I can't force anything more! It's just that if the fighter plane is delayed at that time, it will not be my dereliction of duty! ”

Ling Yan nodded hurriedly: "General Zuo is dedicated to me, please ask me to receive this!" Regardless of the outcome of the battle, I will never blame the general! Besides, I don't plan to delay here for a long time, but after the soldiers of Juye Castle gather here, I will immediately send troops. ”

"Okay...... Then according to the general's order. Zuo Xiao's voice became smaller and smaller, and his expression became more and more ugly.

Ling Yan was very happy, and said: "Then the matter of accepting and surrendering General Sun still depends on General Zuo, please take the trouble of the general and find a way to make Sun Xia submit to me." ”

Colonel Zuo was solemn, and only after a while did he say: "Obey the order, I will do this matter, but I dare not guarantee whether Sun Xia will return to the general." ”

Ling Yan said happily: "As long as the general comes out, he will definitely succeed!" Even if Sun Xianing dies or not, it doesn't matter, I'll think of another way. After speaking, Ling Yan observed Colonel Zuo's face, and he flattered Colonel Zuo first, just to block Colonel Zuo's "back road".

Colonel Zuo replied in a deep voice: "Okay, I know......"

After coming out of Colonel Zuo's office, Ling Yan immediately sent people to Juye City to tell Kuai Liang and the others the news of the victory of Grasshopper City, and let them lead the army to come.

Soon, Guo Yan took Lu Gong and others into the city, and the rear army led by Wen Ping also came to the city an hour later.

Ling Yan was very happy when he saw that he had occupied the Grasshopper City almost without bloodshed this time, since he came to the Three Kingdoms, he had never won so happily once, breaking two cities in a row! This made Ling Yan very excited - when he used to play the Three Kingdoms game on the computer, he could often win a few percent in a row, but compared to that kind of pleasure, the real city breaking experience like this is a hundred times cooler!

At night, Ling Yan was in bed, pondering what Colonel Zuo had said before, and felt that what Colonel Zuo said was very reasonable, and from Colonel Zuo's tone, he could feel that it was not particularly difficult to break through this Jiyīn City and Dingtao City. And he didn't immediately agree to Colonel Zuo's suggestion to march into the army, in fact, he also believed in Colonel Zuo's performance - even if he delayed here for a few years, maybe Colonel Zuo would eventually be able to lead the army to break through Jiyīn City.

At the thought of getting Sun Xia again, Ling Yan was even more excited, and his heart was excited: "If Sun Xia surrenders again, then the strength can be strengthened again!" Ha ha...... This attack is worth it to harvest more than a dozen of his Yellow Turban Army generals! ”

Thinking of gaining such a general as Colonel Zuo, Ling Yan felt very lucky, he had concerns about Colonel Zuo before, but today's conversation made him completely relieved of Colonel Zuo - in fact, as early as when Colonel Zuo sacrificed his internal qi to heal Yu Gengen's injuries, Ling Yan had basically believed him.

With this excitement, Ling Yan quickly fell asleep.

The next morning, Ling Yan was woken up by someone.

Ling Yan was dreaming of "reunification", but he faintly heard a shout coming from somewhere: "General Yan! General Yan! ”

Ling Yan opened his eyes in a daze: "Huh? "He was not very awake at this time, he was half-asleep, and if he was awake, he would suddenly think that his room, ordinary outsiders could not come in casually.

This time, the voice was clearer, and Ling Yan could also hear that it was Lu Gong's voice: "General Yan!" Something is wrong! ”

When Ling Yan heard the word "not good", he suddenly came to his senses, sat up with a swish, and looked at Lu Gong in front of him: "What's wrong?" What's wrong? ”

Lu Gong looked flustered: "General Yan! Sun Xia ran away! ”

Ling Yan was shocked: "What! He thought he had misheard.

But after Lu Gong repeated it again, Ling Yan realized that he had heard correctly: "General Yan, Sun Xia has escaped!" ”

Ling Yan was stunned, at this time, he thought that he only cared about discussing the matter of entering the army with Colonel Zuo yesterday, and he hadn't had time to ask Colonel Zuo where he had detained Sun Xia.

"When did Sun Xia run?" While regretting that he had not properly imprisoned Sun Xia, Ling Yan hurriedly asked Lu Gong.

Lu Gong replied: "In the morning, when a soldier saw that Sun Xia was about to leave the city, the soldiers defending the city opened the city gate for him, and Sun Xia fled on horseback alone!" ”

Ling Yan was shocked and angry, and hurriedly got dressed and asked Gong Lu to accompany him to find Colonel Zuo.

When he came to Colonel Zuo's residence, Ling Yan saw Colonel Zuo frowning in the room, walking back and forth quickly, so he hurriedly walked over and said, "General Zuo!" Sun Xia fled? ”

Seeing Ling Yan coming in, Colonel Zuo clenched his fists and said with a serious expression: "General Yan, I just learned about this!" ”

Ling Yan said anxiously: "This ...... How is this possible! General Zuo, where did you lock him up yesterday? ”

Colonel Zuo frowned and said, "Yesterday, I had my subordinates put him in prison in the city, and there is no problem with this. ”

Ling Yan also felt that Zuo Xiao should be very cautious in handling things, so he frowned and said, "That...... How did he still escape? ”

Colonel Zuo was silent for a while before he said, "Someone should have deliberately let him go." ”

Ling Yan thought about it, suddenly turned around, and said angrily to Gong Lu: "General Lu, bring Guo Yan here!" ”

"Yes!" Lu Gong retreated, and after a while, he came in with Guo Yan.

When Guo Yan first came in, his face was very happy, but as soon as he saw Ling Yan and Zuo Xiao looking at him with straight faces, his expression suddenly became flustered.

"General Yan...... General Zuo ......" Guo Yan hurriedly clenched his fists and saluted nervously.

Ling Yan originally wanted Zuo Xiao to ask questions, because Guo Yan had a sense of awe for Zuo Xiao after all, and Zuo Xiao asked him, even if he had a ghost in his heart, he might not dare to hide it.

But Ling Yan saw that Colonel Zuo was just staring at Guo Yan coldly and didn't speak, so he had to ask Guo Yan first: "Guo Yan, Sun Xia escaped this morning, do you know?" ”

Guo Yan looked at Ling Yan tremblingly: "General Hui Yan...... The end will know. ”

Ling Yan frowned: "Guo Yan, as a general guarding the city, you let the prisoner go so easily, this is a serious crime......"

Guo Yan was so frightened that he suddenly sat on the ground: "This ...... This...... General Yan, I'm ......"

"Humph!" Colonel Zuo suddenly reprimanded angrily, "What are you! Let go of the repeat offender, this is a capital offense! What else do you have to say! ”

"I ...... There is no ......" Guo Yan's voice changed, and his face changed because of panic.

Zuo Xiao's voice was fierce: "Say! Are you complicit in that Sun Xia! Did you deliberately let him go! ”

The sweat on Guo Yan's face suddenly appeared, and he waved his hands in a hurry, and his voice was completely out of shape: "General Zuo!" The last general is not complicit in him! ”

Ling Yan was originally angry, but seeing Guo Yan frightened like this, he relented, tried to appease Guo Yan, and gave him a step down: "Guo Yan, is Sun Xia threatening you, and you don't dare to disobey his orders?" That's why I had to open the city gate for him? ”

Guo Yan hurriedly shook his hands and said hurriedly: "No! No! Not really! ”

Colonel Zuo said sharply: "That's how! Say it! Otherwise, you will be beheaded immediately! ”

Guo Yan's expression seemed to be frightened, and he made a few "gurgling" sounds from his throat, and then he seemed to be relieved, panting and crying: "I said! I say! In the morning soldiers came to me...... The report, saying that General Sun was at the right gate, ordered the soldiers defending the city to open the gate and let him out of the city...... He also said that this was General Yan's intention, and asked him to go to Jiyin City to recruit enemy generals and make meritorious contributions...... Naturally, the last general didn't dare to stop him, and he didn't expect him to be the one who escaped......"

Ling Yan thought about it and felt that it was also, what Guo Yan said was not completely unreasonable, now the first thing to find out is how Sun Xia escaped from prison, as for how he escaped from the city, it is simply easy, for example, just like Guo Yan said, Sun Xia pretended to send him to recruit Ji Yin City and wanted to go out of the city, not to mention that Sun Xia was Guo Yan's superior, he could directly order Guo Yan, Guo Yan would never dare to disobey, just saying that he wanted to go out of the city under the pretext of "sending him to surrender to other cities", with Guo Yan's resourcefulness, he should definitely not doubt it, and even more dare not disobey.

However, Colonel Zuo didn't seem to understand Guo Yan, and said angrily: "Hmph! You know that he is a captured general, but how can you believe his words so easily! Besides, you are the general who defends the city, but you leave your post without permission, and let the felons go without permission, what use will you be kept! Such a dereliction of duty is a capital offense! ”

Guo Yan was so frightened that he froze, his mouth trembled but he couldn't make a sound, and his eyes were wide open due to excessive fear.

Ling Yan said a good word for Guo Yan: "General Zuo, don't hold him accountable for this matter, although he has some responsibility, but we can't blame him entirely, let's find out who released him from prison." ”

Colonel Zuo thought for a moment, and then nodded reluctantly: "Okay...... Then Guo Yan will be escorted to the prison first, and after finding out what happened, he will be beheaded for public display! ”

Ling Yan hurriedly said: "Let's go and find out the reason first, and then decide how to deal with Guo Yan, if the matter is not his responsibility, then forget it." ”

Guo Yan hurriedly said gratefully: "Thank you, General Yan!" Thank you, General Zuo! ”

Colonel Zuo frowned and looked at Ling Yan: "General Yan, Guo Yan neglected his duties and let Sun Xia go, no matter what, it is a capital crime!" If it is light, how to convince the people! ”

Ling Yan knew that Colonel Zuo was dissatisfied with Guo Yan, but he didn't expect Colonel Zuo to hate Guo Yan to the extent that he wanted to put him to death. Ling Yan also knew that Guo Yan's negligence was big or small, and what Colonel Zuo said was not completely unreasonable.

Ling Yan glanced at the poor Guo Yan in embarrassment, and then said to Colonel Zuo: "General Zuo...... We'll talk about this later, and now it's important to find out the person who released him first. ”

Colonel Zuo looked at Guo Yan coldly: "Okay." ”

So, Ling Yan and Zuo Colonel went to the prison to investigate, only to learn that the prison guards had killed two people, Ling Yan and Zuo Colonel discussed, speculating that Sun Xia broke out of the prison after killing the guards, stole a horse, and then escaped from the city by trick.
