"The smoke miasma over there was released, I don't know if it can attract Zhang Ji's attention?"

The sky had already darkened, and the soldiers of the whole battalion had almost woken up, probably only Chen Nuo's Chinese army tent was still burning, and the master had not closed his eyes. Chen Nuo held a roll of bamboo slips in his hand, and read it vertically at a glance, looking quite comfortable, and laughed from time to time when he read the wonderful points.

Dian Wei on Chen Nuo's side always stood still, like an iron tower. But this iron tower, after not being able to persuade Chen Nuo to go back to the bed to rest, had no choice but to say no more, and almost several hours had passed since he stood there. Just a few hours ago, Chen Nuo asked him to send an order to the three armies to sleep in the afternoon, and at night. There will be action, and let him find Pan Zhang and give him a glorious task. The task given to Pan Zhang by Chen Nuo did not hide Dian Wei, he said it in front of Dian Wei.

"Wen Jue, do you know what I'm looking for you at this time?"

Chen Nuo's words stopped Pan Zhang, he was looking for him, where did he know what he asked him to do? However, judging from Pan Zhang's current responsibility for training cavalry, it is probably not difficult for him to guess: "The general is looking for me to use the cavalry battalion to do something?" ”

"Wen Kui is smart!"

Chen Nuo slapped his thigh, beckoned to him, and asked him to come closer. While pointing to the map of Henan placed on the case, he said to him: "As far as my detective knows, there is a group of thieves who are heading towards Gong County. General, don't worry, of course I understand the intentions of this group of thieves, and I think they came in a hurry this time just to seize the opportunity and occupy the Yanshi before me, so as to cut off the rendezvous between our army and the Yangcheng Zhou Ang Division. Most of my troops are infantry, so we can't compete with them, and there's no need for that. So, speaking of which, I don't think you understand if I don't talk about the general, what do I mean by looking for the general this time, right? ”

Pan Zhang's gaze had already been attracted by the 'Yan Division' of Chen Nuo's finger, and he hesitated for a moment: "Is the general planning to let me lead these three hundred cavalry to seize the Yan Division first?" Can ......"

"I know what you're thinking, but don't worry, Wen Jue, of course I don't want you to capture Yanshi County with such a small number of men and horses in your hands. Although the garrison of this Yanshi county is not more than 1,000 people, it is the important place for the Xiliang Army to return to the army, even if they give up Luoyang, they will never give up this place, and they will strengthen the city defense, so if you want to take advantage of it, I am afraid that it is not so simple. What's more, this cavalry is good at attacking on the plains, and if it is said to be a siege, it is not its strength......"

"What does the general mean......"

Pan Zhang suddenly thought, "Could it be ...... Could it be that General Fei wants me to attack the Yanshi in detail? ”

Chen Nuo smiled: "That's right! But if it is a simple detailed attack, I am afraid that it may not have the best effect. I mean, general, you can make the three hundred men under you not three hundred......"

"Three hundred is not three hundred?"

The general is playing a dumb riddle, right? Pan Zhang blurred for a while, what does it mean that three hundred people are not three hundred, is it a ghost?

Chen Nuo laughed and said, "Let's put it this way, although you only have these three hundred people in your hands, general, you can let others see them as thousands, two thousand, or even three or four thousand...... Well, to put it simply, as long as you blur other people's vision so that they can't see how many men you have, that's fine. Wen Jue, do you understand? ”

"Hmm!"

Pan Zhang seemed to have an understanding, and hurriedly surrendered his hand: "When the general said this, I understand!" ”

Chen Nuo smiled and asked him, "Don't you want me to teach you, Wen Jue, you can also do this, right?" ”

Pan Zhang thought for a while and said: "The weather is dry now, if you tie some branches to the horse's tail, and run like this, it will be full of smoke and dust, plus the bluff flag, they will not be able to distinguish the situation for a while, and naturally they can't know how many people and horses are coming in my hands." ”

Chen Nuo smiled: "This plan is feasible!" But remember to stop in moderation, and when help comes, you can hide in this direction and not engage in battle. All you need to do is rest and we'll take care of the rest. And when you get a rest, you can come out from this direction and act on the opportunity! ”

Chen Nuo arranged these things one by one, and Pan Zhang was also taught one by one. When Pan Zhang understood, Chen Nuo also asked him to go down and prepare. Now Pan Zhang's side has been there for several hours, and according to the speed of the cavalry, he must have already arrived at Yanshi City. Pan Zhang led his troops to Yanshi to attract Zhang Ji's department, but it was also dark, but there was no news at all, although Chen Nuo could sit still, Dian Wei was a little worried.

Dian Wei muttered beside him, and Chen Nuo also heard it.

Chen Nuo put down the bamboo slip and looked at Dian Wei with a smile: "Dian Jun can rest assured, Yan Shi is in trouble, how can Zhang Ji sit back and watch the reason?" But Dianjun, I told you to go down and rest, why are you still standing here still? If you don't rest, I'm afraid you won't have time. Don't forget, you still have a night to go tonight. ”

Dian Wei said: "The lord rests and Wei rests." ”

Chen Nuo shook his head and said with a smile: "Whatever you want!" ”

Chen Nuo didn't sleep, of course, it wasn't that he didn't want to sleep, he really couldn't sleep, he had more questions to think about, and more tasks for him to arrange. He was only confused for half an hour in the afternoon, but at the moment he was in good spirits, and he picked up the bamboo slips and read them very energetically.

"The ......"

Dian Wei touched his head and said, "Lord, Wei has a question that I don't understand, and I hope that the lord will teach me." ”

Chen Nuo picked up the bamboo slip and threw it down again, glanced at him, and was happy in his heart. Of course, he understood what Dian Wei was confused about, but he was afraid that Pan Zhang and the others also had the same questions, but they hadn't had time to think about it carefully. Thinking that Dian Wei had been standing beside him for a few hours, he must have thought of this question, but he didn't know whether to ask it or not, and his heart was itchy, I'm afraid he had been holding it for a long time.

Chen Nuo rubbed his cold hands, put them on his knees, straightened his body, and said, "I see that you are quite tired from standing, so it is better to sit down and talk about it." Dian Wei was about to refuse, but Chen Nuo said that if he didn't sit down, he wouldn't ask, so he had to simply sit down on the seat next to him.

"That's right, I'm sitting, you're standing, do you think my neck isn't sore when we talk like this?"

Chen Nuo joked a few words, and then said: "This time, the thief Zhang Ji rode all the way, thinking that since I have made up my mind to 'wait for work', I just need to make arrangements here, and I don't need to send Pan Zhang's suspicious soldiers, which seems to be a redundant move." Dianjun, what do you think at the moment? ”

When Dian Wei heard this, he didn't hide it, and scratched his head: "Wei doesn't know what to say, but Wei thinks about it carefully, and he also feels that there seems to be something wrong with this matter." As the general said, since Zhang Jidu came desperately, he also fell into the general's strategy of 'waiting for work with ease', which ...... The rest of the arrangements seem to be redundant. However, since it is the lord and you have this arrangement, you must have your own plans if you want to come to the lord, Wei Shi should not say anything, and I hope that the lord will forgive the sin! ”

Dian Wei stood up and was about to make amends to Chen Nuo. Chen Nuo hurriedly pulled his sleeve and said with a smile: "Dian Jun can have this idea, and if you say it, it also shows that Dian Jun is willing to work hard." Haha, I'm very relieved, I'm very relieved! ”

His 'very comfort' is indeed 'very comfort'. If it was in the past, Dian Wei had never been so calm to think about a problem, often with arms and no brains. Today, he can think of what he thinks, and the question is sharp, can Chen Nuo not be happy? Chen Nuo pressed Dian Wei on the seat and nodded: "Dian Jun, you asked well!" Let's put it this way, although this Zhang Ji is here, I think he is not active enough and walks too slowly. ”

Dian Wei was a little puzzled, and asked him: "But according to the detective cavalry, this Zhang Ji thousands of men and horses rushed from Chenliu to Xingyang in one day and one night, and then from Chenggao to Gongxian, and the speed is not slow, why does the lord say this?" ”

Chen Nuo smiled: "Of course it's not slow at this speed, but I'm afraid that he will run to the edge of Yishui, and seeing that Gongxian is relieved at the moment, he doesn't want to run anymore, so it will be troublesome." If they rush to Gongxian County, judging by the distance, they are not far from the destination of this trip, so they still need to worry about us running away? If so, what do you do next? Do you continue to march to Yanshi and approach Luoyang, or do you rest in Gongxian County first, and then continue the next action when you have recovered your strength? ”

When Dian Wei heard this, he was stunned for a long time, as if he had grasped the key, but he couldn't express it in words for a while, but he suddenly shouted brightly: "I see! ”

Chen Nuo saw that he was still confused, so he simply explained clearly: "Let's put it this way, I asked General Pan Zhang to suddenly appear in Yanshi, the purpose is naturally to attract Zhang Ji's attention. And as long as he hears that such a cavalry of thousands of people suddenly appeared outside the Yanshi City, do you think he is not in a hurry and speeds up the march? Even if he was in Gongxian County when the news arrived, he would not sit idly by, and would continue to send troops. In this way, they have no rest, and the commander is in a mess, so do you need to be afraid of the superiority of their cavalry? This disturbance and labor is exactly the so-called 'therefore, the enemy can work hard' in the art of war, you can remember it! ”

Dian Wei patted his head and said, "The lord originally arranged it like this!" Wei remembered! It's just that Zhang Ji suddenly sent troops this time, and the lord you also know that it was the Pingxian county commander who made trouble, and the lord you had a contest with the Pingxian county commander before, so I think he will know the lord and your people and horses. I think my lord, you suddenly arranged such a team of thousands of cavalry to appear under Yanshi City this time, even if Zhang Ji didn't doubt it, wouldn't he be suspicious of the Pingxian County Order? If he told Zhang Ji, I am afraid that Zhang Ji may not be willing to be fooled. ”

"That's a good question!"

Chen Nuo patted the wooden case and said with a smile: "Naturally, I won't have so many people in my hands, but Hanoi has them." ”

"Hanoi?"

Dian Wei seemed to have an understanding, and suddenly stood up: "Yes, yes! Hanoi General Zhang Yang Zhang and General Yuan are friendly, and General You have helped him fight the White Wave Thief, although Zhang Ji may not know these deeds for a while, but as long as the relationship between General Zhang and General Yuan is sorted out, coupled with General Zhang's borrowing of General Yu this time, it is not difficult for them to mistakenly think that this group of people and horses are borrowed by General Zhang, and they will inevitably be in chaos, and there is no reason not to pay attention to it. ”

"It's really a son who can be taught!"

Chen Nuo also jumped up, and he was amazed, he couldn't imagine that Dian Wei analyzed it so well. It seems that his good intentions have not been in vain. As soon as he was happy, he wanted to drink, and shouted: "It's still early before the army leaves, since you are not sleepy, would you like to have a drink with me?" ”

"Goo-dong!"

After standing for a few hours, the water and wine drunk in the morning had already faded, and at this time, listening to Chen Nuo mention drinking, Dian Wei was playing drums on an empty stomach, salivating. However, he thought about it for a while, and said in embarrassment: "The food in this army is expensive, and the general has also issued a ban on alcohol several times, even the general, you have rarely drunk a sip in the past few months, and I think it is rare to break the case during the day today, Wei is fortunate to be clean, and he is already very satisfied." As for this wine......"

"Don't be verbose, go get ready for wine!"

Chen Nuo waved his hand again and again, telling him to go down and prepare. Of course, he didn't have to drink this wine, but because Dian Wei was able to use his 'brain' to think about things, and he was very happy. And he took pity on Dian Wei for standing on an empty stomach for a few hours, and he didn't sleep well, couldn't he fill the empty stomach before the army set off to relieve the cravings?

"Yes, Wei will arrange it!"

When Dian Wei heard Chen Nuo say this, he couldn't say any more, and he was afraid that Chen Nuo was hungry and hungry, so he stopped being verbose, quickly got up, and walked out of the tent. Only as soon as he opened the tent door, a detective outside the tent stepped forward and saw Dian Wei, saying that there was news from Yanshi's side.

Chen Nuo asked someone to come in and asked him about the Yanshi. The person hurriedly said: "General Pan, in accordance with the general's orders, led his men and horses to attack Yanshi all the way, and went straight to the city of Yanshi, besieging but not attacking. When the thieves in the city saw General Pan's men and horses coming, they all stood at the head of the city, and there were no less than a thousand people with halberds. It's just that they don't know how many people are coming from outside the city, so they haven't dared to open the city easily to fight. In this way, General Pan's troops were consumed under the Yanshi City until dark. After that, General Pan heard that a group of thieves had come from Gongxian County, and General Pan did not engage in the battle, and according to the general's orders, he quietly withdrew from the Yan Division. ”

"Good!"

Now that Zhang Ji's department has been attracted to Yanshi, it is time for him to appear next. Chen Nuo waved his hand and asked the detective to ride down to fill his stomach and rest well, while he returned to the side of the handsome case again and unfolded the map of Henan to read. His finger pointed to his belly, lightly pressed the name of the place called 'Yanshi', and then retracted, fixed on the 'corpse country'.

The corpse country is the best battlefield he has planned for a long time.

"Lord, it's already arranged!"

Dian Wei returned to the tent and surrendered his hand to Chen Nuo. At this time, Chen Nuo seemed to have forgotten what he had just said, beckoned to Dian Wei, and said, "I think everyone is almost rested, Dian Jun, pass the order, let everyone immediately get ready, and the army will gather in half an hour!" ”

"Ahh

Dian Wei looked at the corn grains in his hand and was a little speechless. He was also very hungry just now, so he grabbed a handful of cold rice particles and chewed them on the way. It's okay not to move your mouth, but once you do, you're hungry. He asked Chen Nuo blankly: "But my lord, half an hour doesn't seem to be enough!" ”

"What's not enough?"

Chen Nuo frowned and stared at him. Asked him to pass on the order, and he also rambled me, whether half an hour is enough is my business, and I need you to bargain? Suddenly seeing the sticky rice grains in Dian Wei's hand, he suddenly understood, patted his head, and said, "I forgot about this matter!" But now that you've prepared it, don't waste it. Well, when the food is hot, you can eat it on the road, I don't blame you. But this wine, let's drink it in private, it's not good to fiddle in front of the whole army, have you ever understood? ”

Dian Wei was really hungry, so he answered, and asked if he wanted to prepare one for him. Chen Nuo was not very hungry at the moment, not to mention that he was riding a horse on the march, so he could walk while eating while walking, so he refused. Na Dian Wei didn't want to say anything, and remembered Chen Nuo's order just now, and immediately jumped out of the tent to convey the order to Zhu Ling and the others.

Half an hour later, the three armies had also finished their equipment, pulled up their tents, and assembled in front of the open field, waiting for further orders.

These people had been asleep for nearly four hours since they had slept in the afternoon, and half of them had actually woken up before Chen Nuo gave the order. Chen Nuo looked at it back and forth, although there was a gap between the military discipline of these people and Zhao Xue in fashion, but fortunately, he personally supervised them, these guys were still face-saving, there was no sloppiness, and there was no chaos.

"Ahh

This yawn was really loud, Chen Nuo frowned slightly, and then he saw that it was Zou Liang, the 'staff' who was forcibly invited to the army by him from Pingyin County. Although Chen Nuo didn't expect this Zou Liang to do anything for him, he couldn't arbitrarily ruin the atmosphere on such a solemn occasion where the three armies gathered, right? Chen Nuo didn't say anything, but this guy yawned one after another, and tears were squeezed out of his eyes. Chen Nuo hurriedly stepped forward and whispered in his ear: "Sir, didn't you sleep well?" ”

Zou Liang also heard the meaning of Chen Nuo's words, and couldn't help laughing embarrassedly, and said: "This, this day and night reversal of the matter is really unsuitable for a while, don't ...... the general Ah, don't blame ......" Seeing him like this, Chen Nuo could only comfort him: "This march and war is like this, and Mr. Xiang will slowly get used to it." By the way, I have already sent someone to pick up my husband's family, and it will probably be a few days before there is news. ”

Hearing the family members, Zou Liang's whole person immediately became energetic, and hurriedly expressed his gratitude to Chen Nuo. He voted for Chen Nuo, and what he was most worried about was the family members who were detained on Dong Zhuo's side, and now that he heard that Chen Nuo had been arranging rescue, he naturally thanked Chen Nuo from the bottom of his heart, endured his sleep, and did not dare to have the slightest slackness.

Chen Nuo said two words to him, and then he ordered: "Okay, the three armies will listen to my orders and go straight to the corpse country with me!" ”
