Chapter 409: Stealing Pictures
The red sun is rising, the smoke is curling, and the barracks were injured yesterday, which can be said to be the most cowardly in history, and the constant victory has made the soldiers have a sense of pride in their hearts, and suddenly so, the morale is unconsciously low. (_Bubble & Book & Bar)
Fortunately, this defeat was Zhang Heng leading the troops, after Yue Shao'an arrived, the soldiers consciously or unconsciously put the responsibility on Zhang Heng, subconsciously, they thought that if the emperor led the troops, there would never be such a fiasco.
However, despite this, the death of so many brothers still made the atmosphere a little depressing, and when it was time for dinner, there was less laughter in the barracks, and there was only silence.
Occasionally, someone said a few words, which seemed unusually conspicuous, so they simply did not speak. Yue Shaoan saw everything in his eyes, and felt a lot of emotion in his heart, not knowing whether this was a good thing or a bad thing.
Although so, however, now he has no good way, going up to make a speech in front of the soldiers of the whole battalion, it may have some effect, but this is a palliative rather than a cure, and the first priority now is to negotiate with Yang Fan, and then decide whether to attack the mountain or absorb it.
Of course, what Yue Shaoan hopes for is co-optation, but it is not clear what the other party wants, at the moment, Yang Fan is not stupid, he should understand his situation, in this case, even if he makes any requests, it should be within the range of what he can bear.
Because, Yang Fan's current situation is not optimistic, but, at the same time, Yue Shaoan also knows that there are also chips in Yang Fan's hands, that is Jin Bing, he knows that he has little time, so it gives him confidence at the negotiation table.
Looking up at the almost mid-sky sun, Yue Shao'an walked forward slowly, several soldiers were eating, seeing Yue Shao'an coming over and hurriedly got up to salute, Yue Shao'an raised his hand and pressed it, signaling them to sit down, and then walked towards the tent.
Looking at the wisp of black silk hanging in front of the tent, Yue Shaoan couldn't help but speed up his pace. As soon as he entered the tent door, Yue Shao'an let the guards around him retreat, and he slowly came to the center of the big tent, and the moonlit night appeared behind him, kneeling on one knee.
Yue Shaoan turned around and hurriedly helped her up: "How is it?" ”
"Look!" As he spoke, Yue Ye took out a map from his arms and handed it to Yue Shaoan.
Yue Shaoan glanced at her, stretched out his hand to take it, spread it out and looked at it, he couldn't help but gasp, hurriedly came to the table, spread out the map and looked at it carefully.
On the map, the whole green mountain is drawn without leakage, even the width of the road under the mountain, the top of the road is close to the cliff, and the strange rocks are all clear.
At the same time, the defense arrangements everywhere, the mountains, rocks and rivers are all clear, and even a few houses on the top of the mountain are clearly marked.
"Tut-tut......" After watching it for a long time, Yue Shaoan continued to be amazed.
Moonlit Night stood behind him, without speaking, standing still.
After a long time, Yue Shaoan raised her head and looked at the moonlit night in surprise, her eyes were fixed on the moonlit night's face, so that a woman like her couldn't help but blush and lowered her head.
"Moonlit Night, is this what you painted?" As soon as he asked this sentence, Yue Shaoan slapped his head, how could this be drawn on a moonlit night, not to mention whether she had the ability to draw this kind of geographical map, even if she was an expert in this area, it was impossible to draw such a detailed map in such a short period of time.
Sure enough, the moonlit night replied softly: "Returning to the emperor, this picture was not painted by the moonlit night, it was stolen by a subordinate on the mountain." ”
"Moonlit night, you are lucky, this time you will be credited!" As he spoke, Yue Shaoan nodded, his eyes moved to the map again, and he looked at it carefully, and suddenly, his brows furrowed, and bursts of cold sweat oozed from his forehead......
Seeing this on a moonlit night, she didn't know why, in a hurry, she hurriedly flashed to Yue Shao'an's side, and asked with concern: "Emperor, what's wrong?" What's wrong with you? ”
Yue Shaoan didn't answer the question of the moonlit night, but his eyes were still fixed on the map, he only had the idea of deploying on the mountain before, but he didn't think about how to attack the mountain, now he took a closer look, and then he was afraid.
First of all, the road around the mountain is a triangle, if the road under the mountain is blocked, then if you want to pass here, you must detour to the mountain, and then turn back, however, this is not the point, because the road under the mountain is wide, it is not so easy to block, especially now that the army is stationed here, if Yang Fan sends someone down to block the road, it is undoubtedly looking for death, and he does not have that need, so he does not force himself to attack the mountain......
Yang Fan categorically would not be so confused, what really gave Yue Shaoan a headache was that after passing the fortifications halfway up the mountainside, that section of the road, although nearly a thousand cavalry were lost on the mountainside, but, according to Yue Shaoan's point of view, there is no real resistance here, the previous defeat here, firstly, because he did not understand the enemy's situation, and secondly, Zhang Heng was good at confrontation in front of the battle, and was not good at this kind of mountain offensive and defensive warfare, of course, improper use of people is the most fatal mistake.
On the back part of the road, there is a pontoon bridge, but the water source of the river below the pontoon bridge is a natural lake, as long as the lake is released, the water level in the river will skyrocket, and the roads and fortifications around the pontoon bridge will be washed away, not to mention people.
After watching it for a long time, Yue Shaoan didn't think of a way to crack it, he raised his head and smiled bitterly, if he had to take down the mountain, the casualties would be very large, and after that, he would definitely not have the ability to fight with the Jin people again.
"Moonlit night, where did you get this picture?" Yue Shaoan asked suddenly.
Yueye was worried, not knowing what was going on, Yue Shaoan suddenly asked, let her pause, and subconsciously said, "It's in Yang Fan's study." ”
"Oh?" Yue Shao'an wrinkled more tightly every day: "You tell me in detail." ”
Moonlit Night nodded and told what had happened.
She followed Sun Chengguang all the way, and after going up to the top of the mountain, after Sun Guangcheng finished talking with Yang Fan, she quietly wrote down the words that Yue Shao'an wanted to bring on a piece of paper and put them on the desktop of Yang Fan's study.
After that, the moonlit night returned to the mountain with the map.
After listening to the moonlit night, Yue Shaoan suddenly smiled slightly, as if all the previous worries had been left out of his mind, he looked at the moonlit night and said softly: "You are doing a good job, go and rest!" ”
The moonlit night was a little dazed, but he still nodded in agreement and retreated.
After leaving on a moonlit night, Yue Shao'an ordered the guards to call Gao Chong in.
Gao Chong accompanied Zhang Heng to attack the mountain, but the result was a loss of soldiers, although he did not have any responsibility, but he was still a little uncomfortable, especially Zhang Heng's beaten skin and flesh, but he was intact, which made him feel a little embarrassed, therefore, he has been avoiding Yue Shao'an, not daring to see him, and now he is summoned in, but he also lowered his head, looking dejected.
Looking at Gao Chong's appearance, Yue Shaoan couldn't help but be a little dumbfounded: "What's the matter?" If you don't win the battle, won't it? ”
"Mr. Yue, I'm ......"
Yue Shao'an knew what he wanted to say, it was nothing more than something like saying that he had any responsibilities, and now, he was not interested in listening to this, Yang Fan deliberately asked Yueye to bring out this picture this time, it was nothing more than because he gave him an ultimatum that made him a little annoyed, but he didn't want the relationship between the two sides to become irreconcilable, so he used this trick to demonstrate himself.
After Yue Shao'an's judgment, he felt that Yang Fan did this just to give himself more chips and confidence at the negotiation table, and he also knew that time was pressing, and Yue Shaoan didn't have much time to wait, so he would definitely send someone to negotiate today.
Yue Shao'an obviously asked Gao Chong to come over, that is, to let him go to the bottom of the mountain and wait for people, so that the soldiers would not know what was going on, and it would be bad to hurt people by mistake, so without waiting for Gao Chong to finish speaking, Yue Shaoan hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Don't say so useless, if you do it today." ”
Gao Chong was stunned for a moment, and then rejoiced: "Mr. Yue, are you going to attack the mountain?" ”
"Attacking the mountain?" Yue Shao'an glanced at him and said, "Okay, give you twenty people, if you attack it, I'll be happy to see it." ”
Gao Chong's eyes widened: "Mr. Yue, you're not joking, are you?" ”
The manpower Yue Shao'an had already prepared before looking for Gao Chonglai, they were all standing outside the tent, they were all Yue Shao'an's guards, and after taking Gao Chongxing out of the tent, Yue Shao'an pointed to the guards and said, "You take them with you." ”
"Huh?" Gao Chong was dumbfounded, everyone is ready, so it really doesn't seem to be a joke, he looked at more than 20 guards for a moment, and suddenly turned his head to look at Yue Shao'an, his eyes showed a miserable and pitiful look, that look, as if he was facing a stone, and the other party who could also be moved to tears: "Mr. Yue, I have no grievances with you, I still want to wait for you to do your filial piety when you are old, why do you want me to die now, are you willing to be such a good student......"
Seeing that Gao Chong had regained his previous appearance with a dead face, Yue Shaoan scolded with a smile and said: "When I am old, it is estimated that you will not be much younger, so I don't think Yang Fan will send someone to see me today, in order not to have an accident, you will take someone to the bottom of the mountain to meet him now." ”
"Huh?" Gao Chonglima raised his head, and the tears that were squeezed out of him were not squeezed out, so he let him take them back: "Don't attack the mountain? ”
"Do you still want to attack the mountain?" Yue Shao'an looked at him with a smile.
"No, no, no......" Gao Chong waved his hand and said, "Is it just picking up people?" It's as simple as that? ”
"Do you like complexity?"
"I don't like it."
"Then don't you go quickly-" Yue Shao'an kicked him, and Gao Chong hurriedly led people down the mountain
