Chapter 14: Cryptic Conversations
"Bai Dutong, what do you mean......" Zhao Zi'an asked a little suspiciously.
Although Bai Qi's voice was not loud, it was very clear: "General, there are still enemy troops outside the city, and our current military strength is similar to theirs. ”
Although his words were not exhaustive, the meaning was very clear. Zhao Zi'an immediately came to his senses, nodded, and turned to the generals: "You can go back, Captain Wei and Bai Dutong will stay." ”
After listening to the conversation between Bai Qi and Zhao Zi'an, the generals already understood what the two meant, so naturally they didn't ask more, and retired one after another, and in a blink of an eye, only Zhao Zi'an, Wei Changfeng and Bai Qi were left in the big tent.
Zhao Zi'an paced two steps and said, "Chief Wei, you haven't had time to be included in the army system, have you?" He ordered you and the soldiers you brought with you to be included in Bai Dutong's subordinates, to replenish his soldiers, and you should grow up under him. ”
Wei Changfeng heard Zhao Zi'an call himself Chief instead of Wu Chang twice in a row, thinking that General Zhao's mind was really in a trance now, and replied in a circle: "It is the honor of the last general to be the commander of the army under Bai Dutong. ”
Zhao Zi'an smiled and said, "What is the chief, what is the chief!" This commander governs the army, he has always been rewarded for meritorious service, and he must be punished for his mistakes, how can you not reward you for such great achievements? ”
Wei Changfeng's heart skipped a beat, and he hurriedly thanked him.
Zhao Zi'an waved his hand, stopped Wei Changfeng, and said, "I'll talk about these words later, do you understand what I mean by leaving you?" ”
"The last general understands," replied Wei Changfeng, "the general wants the last general to explain how to use the previous strategy to defeat the enemy army as soon as possible. The last general thought that the general was right, and he had to defeat the enemy in front of him as soon as possible, so the last general was in a hurry to clarify the problem of the last general's suggestion to attack out of the city. ”
Zhao Zi'an praised from the bottom of his heart this time.
Wei Changfeng is really not an ordinary person! Bai Qi's hint was not only to tell him that there were still enemy troops outside the city, but to tell him that if he didn't defeat the enemy army outside the city as soon as possible, once the enemy reinforcements arrived, Xingcheng would be left to defend, so there was a saying "Our current military strength is similar to theirs". And Wei Changfeng not only knew the meaning of the song when he heard the strings, but also thought of this problem a long time ago, so he refused to wait for Zhao Zi'an to slowly investigate the truth of the matter, but was eager to clarify himself, hoping to implement the previous tactical plan before the enemy's reinforcements arrived. He even guessed Zhao Zi'an's thoughts, and Zhao Zi'an also thought of this problem.
"Say." Zhao Zi'an only said one word. He believed that Wei Changfeng could understand it, and he didn't have to go into detail to "tell me how this tactic was executed".
"The last will be retired." Bai Qi interjected on the side.
Zhao Zi'an was stunned for a moment, and then understood that Bai Qi was not inexplicably about retiring, but ......
"Don't go," Zhao Zi'an replied, "I deliberately left yours." As he spoke, he looked at Wei Changfeng.
This time it was Bai Qi's turn to be stunned, and he was also stunned for a moment, and then nodded in agreement.
Wei Changfeng was listening to the answer between General Zhao and Bai Dutong on the side, and suddenly felt very interesting.
It's a very subtle conversation, including literal meaning, implicit meaning, and the meaning of moving gaze. To sum it up:
Bai Qi: General Zhao, this plan is a secret in the army, and even the generals and generals can't know about it.
Zhao Zi'an: Don't go, although this plan was proposed by Wei Changfeng, but after all, he is only a chief, and someone needs to supervise the implementation, I deliberately left you, just to let you help me take care of Wei Changfeng, in case he has any negligence, you can correct it in time, I trust you.
Bai Qi: Okay, the end will understand.
This conversation is indeed obscure enough, but the conversation between Zhao Zi'an and Wei Changfeng just now cannot be regarded as not obscure, so these three people are actually half-talking, but the three of them can understand each other.
Speaking of which, in fact, Zhao Zi'an's consideration is completely reasonable, the fate of a city cannot be handed over to a chief who has only been in the city for less than a day to decide, even if it is a chief who has made great contributions. No general would be too careful in such a matter, so Wei Changfeng was not unhappy, and said immediately: "The last general thinks that we should do this......
More than half an hour later, Wei Changfeng and Bai Qi came out of the Chinese military tent. The two men didn't speak to each other, just walked side by side. After only a few steps, Bai Qi suddenly took a step back, called a soldier, and whispered a few words. The soldier nodded in response and galloped away, and Bai Qi immediately turned back, still walking side by side with Wei Changfeng.
The two walked a few steps in silence, and Wei Changfeng suddenly said, "Thank you Bai Dutong." ”
Bai Qi looked at Wei Changfeng in surprise and replied softly, "You're welcome." ”
Of course, he was surprised, because he didn't understand how Wei Changfeng had guessed that he had ordered the soldiers to quickly go and prepare a place for Wei Changfeng to live.
Wei Changfeng looked at Bai Qi's surprised expression and laughed a little happily.
Bai Qi also smiled, the eyes of the two of them suddenly became a little warm, and both of them had a strange feeling in their hearts, as if they had met a good partner who understood each other.
However, this state of comprehension only lasted until the two of them returned to Bai Qi's station, and when Wei Changfeng saw the residence that Bai Qi had prepared for him, he was very surprised, and hurriedly said: "Bai Dutong, this can't be!" ”
