Chapter 141: The eve of the decisive battle is full of variables
The light moon is veiled, graceful, the moonlight is like water, calm and soft, but under the softness is the cold wind, rolling in the bloody air, and the calm is full of slaughter,
In the rebel camp, patrols will walk around from time to time, but they are silent and the military discipline is very strict.
In the handsome tent, Gao Xianzhi wrapped strips of cloth around his shoulders, leaned on the soft chair, closed his eyes and breathed evenly,
"General, I have prepared everything, just wait for Feng Changqing to appear." Ah Man was sitting in a wooden wheelchair, and was pushed into the tent by a man in a green shirt, slightly excited, "I'm afraid they haven't imagined that he and Guo Ziyi are fighting inside and outside, and that is when Guo Ziyi died." ”
Gao Xianzhi opened his eyes expressionlessly, and waved his hand to signal the green-shirted man behind Ah Man to step back: "It was my mistake that affected you, Ah Man, how is the injury on your leg." ”
Ah Man's heart was full of warmth when he heard this, and he chuckled: "The general is too outward, what is the point of worrying about a small injury, if he can achieve the general's immortal fame, what does it matter if Ah Man dies." ”
"A man......" Gao Xianzhi looked embarrassed, hesitated for a moment and said, "In Shandong, the last battle is coming, you and I can't be careless, and let go of the rest, for the sake of the Lord's grand wish, you and I have already put our surnames out of the way, and everything will be discussed until the Lord ascends to the great treasure, and I don't know if we can find the place where Qingqing's bones are buried in the future......"
The smile on Ah Man's face froze, and then he smiled again: "What the general said is very true, Ah Man will never forget the Lord's ambition, as for Sister Qingqing, she may not be poisoned." ”
"Huh." Gao Xianzhi smiled noncommittally and changed the conversation, "Don't be careless, what you need to guard against now is not only Marshal Guo and Feng Changqing, but also Xue Song's right army ......."
Gao Xianzhi thought of Yang Ping'an again, the guy who was extremely cunning, tricked him to catch him, and finally deceived him to leave safely.
Shadow Guard, why did Shadow Guard openly help Xue Song, when did the Xue family collude with Shadow Guard,
Damn it,
"What is the general thinking?"
"You have more than enough manpower to infiltrate the barracks on the right and find out someone for me."
Ah Man thought about it sideways, and replied: "I can send three people out, I don't know who the general wants to investigate." ”
"That man's name is Yang ......"
When Gao Xianzhi was about to say Yang Ping'an's name, a report suddenly came from outside the tent: "Two adults, the Lord has sent an envoy to see you." ”
"Please." Gao Xianzhi hurriedly got up and pushed Ah Man to go outside the tent to greet him, but he took two steps, but the curtain was raised, and a girl in a green shirt stepped in: "Under the command of the lord, the third-grade bronze guard Wujie will see the two adults." ”
This girl is only twenty-eight years old, medium but introverted and shy, if Yang Ping'an is here, he will definitely be able to recognize this Wu Ting, it is Xue Ting who was ambushed by Xue Yufeng's side, and killed him with a fatal arrow outside Caozhou City.
"You may be seated." After checking Wu Ting's identity, Gao Xianzhi and A Man glanced at each other, and said suspiciously, "The Lord has come to Shandong." ”
"Back to the words of the two adults, the Lord has been following Xue Song's right army from Henan into Shandong, and now he is in the shadows."
"The Lord is in secret, it is not because the two of us have disappointed the Lord in recent times." Gao Xianzhi said nervously,
"Lord Gao misunderstood, the Lord once said that if the war is handed over to Lord Gao, there will be no worries, and the Lord came to Shandong, not because of the two adults."
"Oh." Ah Man was surprised in his heart, "Then the Lord has come here, what is the matter, who is it?" ”
"This ......" Wu Ting hesitated for a moment, bowed down and clenched her fists, "Please forgive me, this matter is very important, I can't give the order of the Lord, and I don't dare to talk about it." ”
Gao Xianzhi suddenly said, "You...... I've not seen you before. ”
Wu Ting said with a smile: "The general is good to remember his surname, and when the general intercepted Xue Yufeng in the wilderness, he was also present. ”
"Oh, it's you." Gao Xianzhi suddenly realized, looked at Aman, and saw the surprise in each other's eyes,
Obviously, whether it was Gao Xianzhi, who was in charge of commanding the troops, or Ah Man, who was in charge of all the intelligence work and assassination matters, they didn't know that in Tiance Guard, there was another Sanpin Bronze Guard ambushed by Xue Yufeng's side.
"But the Lord wants to convince the Xue family personally."
Wu Ting shook her head and said: "The Xue family, it's not as good as before, how can it be worth the Lord to come in person, there is really an important matter, and the Lord needs to be there in person, it's not that the Lord is dissatisfied with the two adults, the Lord doesn't see the two adults, but also because that matter is too important." ”
Gao Xianzhi and Ah Man both knew the severity, so they didn't ask questions, just waiting for Wu Ting to convey the master's order, but this order made the two of them dumbfounded and couldn't believe it.
"The Lord has an order, and he orders the two adults to return to Jiangnan as soon as possible."
"Return to Jiangnan, what should Marshal Guo do?" Gao Xianzhi is leading the troops in Shandong this time, in addition to delaying time, the only task is to get rid of Guo Ziyi, and clear the biggest obstacle for the future Northern Expedition of the army.
But now let them return to Jiangnan,
"The lord has an order, Guo Ziyi is irrelevant, and let it go first, and ask the two adults to make proper arrangements, don't show flaws when you retreat, and if possible, you can severely damage Guo Ziyi and Feng Changqing's soldiers and horses, don't use troops against Xue Song's soldiers and horses, especially the military camp under his daughter Xue Yufeng."
In the camp of the Right Route Army, Xue Song also received visitors in the tent.
"Feng cripple, how could you come to Lao Tzu's camp, your soldiers and horses."
"Xue Pifu, you don't guard Caozhou City well, what are you doing here, do you know that you have caused chaos for me and the marshal."
The visitor of the Right Route Army was Feng Changqing, the commander of the Left Route Army, and after nightfall, he brought a few personal soldiers to meet Xue Song in disguise.
The two are old acquaintances, serving under Guo Ziyi all the year round, although they often quarrel and ridicule each other, but they have a deep friendship, he came to see Xue Song, one of the purposes is to get in touch with him, so as not to let Xue Song recklessly destroy the policy he agreed with Guo Ziyi,
"Add to the chaos." Xue Song was furious, "Lao Tzu's father-in-law is trapped, Lao Tzu, who is a son, how can he stand by and watch, but it's you, why haven't you heard from you for so long." ”
"I, who told you that the marshal was trapped, it was a plan negotiated between the marshal and me, in order to be able to annihilate the main force of the rebels in a battle, so I took the initiative to enter the Luoying Valley, which seems to be a plan, but in fact it is to facilitate me to recover Jinxiang and Yunzhou, and then fight with the marshal inside and outside, defeat the main force of the rebels in one fell swoop, and quell the rebellion in Shandong."
Xue Song was stunned for a moment, and said to himself: "This word, why does it sound so familiar, it seems that someone told me." ”
This guy's subordinates really received a capable person, this is Feng Changqing's second purpose when he came to see Xue Song: "Who told you." ”
"Hmm...... Ah, Lao Tzu remembered, it was Yufeng, Lao Tzu's daughter. ”
"Jade Phoenix." Feng Changqing looked at each other in disbelief, he was good friends with Xue Song, regarded Xue Yulong's brothers and sisters as sons and nephews, and knew them better, "Impossible." ”
"How is it impossible, that is, when Lao Tzu was about to start from Caozhou, Yufeng made a special trip to tell Lao Tzu, is it necessary for Lao Tzu to lie to you as a cripple, what kind of expression do you have."
Feng Changqing still couldn't believe it: "Okay, don't talk about it, I'm here to tell you, you don't want to make trouble, you think that with your bravery, you can be Gao Xianzhi's opponent, then Gao Xianzhi's ability, I am ashamed, you hit a stone with an egg." ”
"You're the egg." After scolding, Xue Song suddenly grinned and was happy, "Haha, you think you are not as good as that Gao Xianzhi, but Lao Tzu defeated him today, so you admit that you are not as good as Lao Tzu." ”
"Bah." Feng Changqing took a sip, "Let me ask you, who guarded the barracks when you led the troops into battle today, and actually defeated the rebels with less." ”
"This ......" Xue Song's face became ugly, and he said after a while, "It's a personal soldier named Yang Ping'an, that kid took advantage of Yufeng's absence in the camp to snatch control of the camp without authorization." ”
"Just a pro-soldier." Feng Changqing looked at him suspiciously, and then asked: "Who shot and injured Gao Xianzhi, as far as I know, with his skills, few people can hurt him with cold arrows, don't tell me that you are an old horseman." ”
This time, Xue Song's face became even more ugly: "It's still that guy." ”
"You mean Yang Ping'an, you have such ability, you are only a personal soldier in your battalion, and you are a personal soldier by your side."
Xue Song shook his head and said nothing,
Feng Changqing thought for a moment and exclaimed: "Could it be that it is a personal soldier under the command of Yufeng." ”
"How do you know?"
"Hey, you blinded Xue Pifu." Feng Changqing scolded angrily, "If I am not wrong, what Yufeng said to you must also come from the mouth of this person, he has already seen the policy agreed between the marshal and me, such a talent in both civil and military affairs, you actually only let him be a personal soldier, you called him, since you don't like him, then let me take it away, I am lacking such talents." ”
Xue Song was not annoyed this time, but took the monocular from the side of the case: "You can recognize this thing." ”
"This, this is not what is written, where did you get it from?" Feng Changqing was about to take it, and his face changed, "It is rumored that this thing is from Tiance, and it disappeared for more than a hundred years with the concealment of Tiance. ”
"This thing is what Yang Ping'an offered." Then, Xue Song told all the matters involving Yang Ping'an one by one, including the entanglement between Yang Ping'an and Xue Yufeng, and did not hide it, and finally he asked, "What do you think of this person." ”
Feng Changqing pondered for a long time, and said slowly: "According to what you said, this person is indeed suspicious, it is not for you and me to decide, and when the rebels are annihilated in the Ming Dynasty, you send someone to take him down and hand him over to the marshal. If he is not, then congratulations to you for being an old horseman, who has become a good son-in-law. ”
The two agreed on everything, Feng Changqing left quietly, Xue Song summoned Xue Yufeng to give instructions, and Xue Yulong to give instructions, and prepared for the decisive battle.
Returning from Xue Song, Xue Yufeng found Yang Ping'an and said: "My father just told me that he was going to fight a decisive battle with the rebels in order to prevent Gao Xianzhi from fleeing from Caozhou to the south, and let me lead the military camp to intercept it, but there is an official road and four small roads from here to Caozhou, a total of five roads, so which one will Gao Xianzhi choose." ”
"Official way."
