Chapter Seventy-Seven: It Really Hits the Scheme

The next day, Ling Yan found Jiang Qi and said, "Jiang Qi, I want to know if you are sincere in surrendering. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info”

Jiang Qi hurriedly knelt on the ground and said, "Jiang Qi will never dare to deceive General Yan!" ”

"Good!" Ling Yan was very happy, "Since General Jiang is sincerely surrendering to me, then I want to give you a task, first, to let you make meritorious contributions, and second, to test your sincerity. How? ”

Jiang Qi hurriedly said: "General, please instruct, as long as the last general can do it, no matter what it is, the last general will not give up and will never shirk." ”

"Good! Then I'll tell the general the truth," Ling Yan said, "You said that Yan Liang would be the first to arrive in Jianhe City, right?" ”

"Yes, according to the general's estimation, it should be Yan Liang who arrived here first." Jiang Qi thought for a while.

"Hmm...... Even so, I'm going to have to fight him," Ling Yan smiled, "so I need your help here." ”

"Although the general commands, the last general will never give up." Jiang Qi made a promise.

"Okay." Ling Yan said with a smile, "That's easy, I want to ask the general to deceive Yan Liang, let him be fooled, think that the city is empty, and then lead the troops to come, then I will lead the troops to kill, that is, I can defeat him." ”

"The general is a good plan!" Jiang Qi hurriedly said, "Yan Liang is a brave and unscrupulous person, and he will definitely know the plan of the general." ”

Ling Yan smiled: "But how to say it to him, it's up to the general to think about it himself." If you think of a way, let me know. ”

"The last general obeys!" Jiang Qi said, "Then the general will retreat first." ”

"yes, okay."

Not to mention anything else, Jiang Qi's efficiency was fast enough, and less than an hour later, he came to Ling Yan again.

"Oh? The general figured out how to say something to General Yan Liang? Ling Yan was cultivating, and when he saw Jiang Qi coming, he hurriedly collected his internal qi and asked with a smile.

"Ah, the general's internal qi is so strong?" Jiang Qi saw Ling Yan's internal qi and exclaimed, "That Yan Liang's internal qi is just pediatrics!" ”

"You're pretty good at sycophants!" Ling Yan thought in his heart, but asked on his lips: "General Jiang, Yan Liang's internal qi is indeed inferior to mine?" ”

"Of course," Jiang Qi said, "how dare I deceive General Yan!" ”

"But I heard from people who have fought with him that Yan Liang's internal qi is quite powerful! Didn't you say before that his internal qi was very strong? How can that be inferior to me? ”

Jiang Qi's face looked very embarrassed: "Huh...... I feel that General Shangyan's internal qi is not weaker than Yan Liang's, but it seems to be ...... It's also a little different, I remember that General Yan Liang's internal qi seems to be in the shape of a dragon, while the general's internal qi is wrapped around the weapon......"

Judging from Jiang Qi's words, he didn't lie, because He Rong had also said before that Yan Liang's internal qi was like a long dragon.

"Well, I know, General Jiang should talk about how to deceive Yan Liang." Ling Yan said.

"General Yan, the last general thought that the general would first open the gate of Jianhe City, and when Yan Liang's army arrived, I told him that you heard that the soldiers and horses of the three roads were coming, so he abandoned the city and fled, he must believe what I said, and after he led the troops into the city, the general surrounded him from all sides inside and outside, and he could be captured in a battle!" Jiang Qi explained in detail.

"General Jiang is really brave and strategic!" Ling Yan said with a smile, "This plan is very good, I guess that Yan Liang can't see through the general's strategy." ”

"Thank you, General, for the compliment!"

"Okay, let's do as the general says."

After Jiang Qi left, Ling Yan practiced his internal qi for a while, the white light became brighter and brighter, Ling Yan remembered what Jiang Qi had just said, and disagreed: Even if his internal qi has been enhanced, how can he compare to Yan Liang? If Yan Liang really didn't even have this bit of internal qi, then He Rong would not be so impressed.

Although Jiang Qi's words just now sounded useful, Ling Yan became more and more disgusted with Jiang Qi's character, and he looked down on this kind of person in his heart. He looked at the brighter and brighter white light on the moon slashing knife, and was thinking in his heart how to kill two birds with one stone, not only to capture Yan Liang, but also to let Jiang Qi receive the punishment he deserved, so as to avenge the knife he suffered......

Another day passed, but there was nothing to do, Ling Yan was cultivating his internal qi, and suddenly heard a report from the scouts: "Yan Liang has led the troops to Jianhe City." ”

Ling Yan hurriedly made preparations, let the generals ambush in their respective positions, opened the city gates, and sent Jiang Qi to wait outside.

I waited for a long time, but I didn't see Yan Liang's army. After a while, the scouts came again to report that Yan Liang's troops had stopped moving forward and set up camp in the woods.

Ling Yan understood that Yan Liang wanted to have a good rest during the day, and then take advantage of the night to attack.

Ling Yan called all the people who were in ambush back, and then secretly ordered them to lead the troops to ambush again at one watch in the evening.

In the afternoon, Ling Yan spent all his time in cultivation.

Soon, Kuai Liang suddenly came to Ling Yan and said, "General Yan, I have ordered someone to transport the grain and grass in the city to the rear, and move forward slowly, no matter whether our army wins or not, I will not let them come back." ”

"Okay, just keep what you need for today, and the rest will be transported to Dajie City sooner." Ling Yan said.

"Yes." Kuai Liang responded, "General Yan, I still have something to tell you. ”

"General, please."

Kuai Liang's expression was a little uneasy: "General Yan, what General He Rong said before is true, this is indeed a great danger: that Yan Liang is a famous general in Hebei, and his martial arts will not be low...... Moreover, I have heard that Yuan Shao's subordinates are known as four fierce generals, named 'tiger', 'leopard', 'bear' and 'wolf', this Yan Liang is among them, and it is the 'leopard' among them, the general has to be careful! ”

"Leopard?" Ling Yanqi said, feeling a little funny in his heart, "Why is it called a leopard?" Is he fast? ”

"I don't know this Liang," Kuai Liang said, "but the four generals are very famous in Hebei, and when they heard that they were attacking Jizhou, Yuan Shao sent two men to attack, one of whom was Yan Liang. ”

"And who's the other one?" Ling Yan asked curiously.

"The other is the 'wolf', which is Chun Yuqiong." Kuai Liang replied.

"Oh." Ling Yan nodded, "It seems that Yuan Shao really wanted to capture Jianhe City, and he actually sent two men to attack him." ”

"Yes." Kuai Liang said, "So if we can't win the battle, we must retreat immediately, in case we are besieged by the other two roads, especially Chun Yuqiong's way, then with our troops, we will definitely not be able to last long, and then not only will Jianhe City not be protected, but also face the danger of annihilation, and General Yan will also be in danger." ”

Ling Yan knew that what Kuai Liang said was by no means an exaggeration, according to what he said, since Chun Yuqiong was also ranked among Yuan Shao's so-called "Four Fierce Generals", then he should also be angry, if the two generals who knew how to be angry were sandwiched, it was basically impossible to get away with it.

Ling Yan nodded and said, "What General Kuai said is extremely true, if we can't win, we must immediately withdraw our troops and never love war." ”

"Since this is the case with the general, Kuai Liang is relieved," Kuai Liang said, "Fight with Yan Liang, no matter whether you win or lose, you will only fight, and you will leave after the battle, and you must not fall in love with the war." β€β€˜

"What the general said is exactly what I want, please rest assured."

"That being the case, Naliang retired." Kuai Liang withdrew.

At the first watch in the middle of the night, Lu Gong, You Heng and He Rong each led 1,000 infantry to ambush outside the city, Ling Yan and Li Heng led 2,000 soldiers and horses to hide in the city, and Kuai Liang lay on the city tower. The city gate was opened, and Jiang Qi stood at the door.

"General Yan, why haven't the enemy troops arrived?" Li Heng asked Ling Yandao beside him in a low voice.

"Wait, it should be there soon." Ling Yan said in a low voice.

After another half a day, there was still no movement of the enemy army, and Ling Yan also wondered in his heart: Yan Liangjun wouldn't all sleep to death, right?

Ling Yan was about to get up, when he suddenly heard the faint sound of horses' hooves in the distance.

Ling Yan was overjoyed: The enemy army is finally here! Turning his head to Li Heng, he said, "Get ready, the enemy army is coming!" ”

After a while, only the sound of horses' hooves became louder and louder, followed by the sound of footsteps, and at the same time, hundreds of torches shone from a distance, and everyone could clearly see that it was a force.

Jiang Qi, who was at the door, saw that a soldier was coming, his face changed instantly, and then he ran quickly towards the incoming army.

After a while, he saw a general leading a large number of men and horses over, Jiang Qi went over to the general's side, whispered a few words in the ear of the general, the general was overjoyed, and with a wave of the long knife in his hand, the leader quickly came towards the city.

Ling Yan in the city felt nervous, and at this time, he suddenly began to feel a little uneasy: did that Jiang Qi tell the enemy general as he did before? Or did you turn against yourself and tell all the plans? That would be a big bad thing!

Before Ling Yan could think about it, he saw a general leading a large number of troops into the city, and for a while, the city was illuminated by torches, and the cheers and shouts of soldiers were all over the place.

Ling Yan glanced at the military general in the lead, but saw that the military general was very tall, dressed in silver-white armor, holding a few long knives, with thick eyebrows and big eyes on his face, as if carved in wax, without any expression, with a grim face.

Beside him, it was Jiang Qi. But Jiang Qi said happily to the general: "General Yan, look, what I said is true, that Ling Yan heard that the general was coming, so he couldn't care about it, and led the troops to flee." The voice sounded faintly trembling.

Ling Yanxin said: "Sure enough, it's Yan Liang!" Okay, watch me catch turtles in an urn! Still, there was a sense of unease in his heart.

"Well," Yan Liang replied in a low voice, "then why didn't you go with him?" ”

Jiang Qi hurriedly said: "I am deeply favored by the lord, how can I defect to the enemy army?" I knew that General Yan would come to attack the city later, so I just waited for General Yan to arrive and defeated Ling Yan, but unfortunately he ran too fast. ”

"Hehe, okay." Although Yan Liang laughed out loud, his expression remained the same.

Seeing that the enemy army was almost in, Ling Yan immediately whispered an order to Li Heng: "Kill out!" ”

"Yes!"

As Li Heng answered, he shouted and rushed out.

Ling Yan and the surrounding soldiers also followed and killed.

For a while, shouts of killing spread throughout the city, and more than a thousand soldiers and horses rushed towards Yan Liang and his soldiers from all directions.

The enemy soldiers were frightened by this sudden sound and hurried to meet the battle.

Yan Liang was also stunned, but then regained his composure, looked at the soldiers who came out of the ambush with cold eyes, and suddenly he stared at Jiang Qi: "Jiang Qi, what's going on?" ”
