Chapter Eighty-Three: Happy Hour (Part II)
The next day, the messenger was sent, and He Ran said to Xiao Xiao with some frustration: "I asked, the snow leopard only lives on the high mountains of more than seven or eight hundred zhang, and it can't be hunted with a large army at all, this thing is very fine, the sense of smell and vision are extremely sensitive, even experienced hunters want to find its traces have to rely on luck, there is a snow-capped mountain a hundred miles away, but we don't have so much spare time." ”
Xiao Xiao was disappointed,
"It's not the right time, in late autumn, when the leopards have just given birth and when they don't have enough food, they will come down to hunt for food, and that's the best time to catch snow leopards."
"Forget it, it's almost a year to go." Xiao Xiao lost hope,
He Ran looked at her and asked, "Do you think you can be sure that you can clean up Xin Yan within a year?" ”
Xiao Xiao smiled faintly and said, "I hope to clean him up this winter,"
"Oh." He Ran heard her words, "You want to use the way of others to govern others, and after winning the victory, you will wave your troops to attack Xinyan's lair." ”
Xiao Xiaoxiu raised his eyebrows, "What do you think?" ”
He Ran muttered: "I'm only worried about the weather, if I really catch up with the kind of heavy snow they say......"
"I've understood, it's not that big snow every year, since Xin Yan dares to gamble on this risk, why don't we dare."
He Ran thought for a while, and then made a decision: "If the soldiers travel thousands of miles in case it ......, okay, I'll go back and ask King Fan, if he is willing to take this risk, then let's gamble once." ”
Xiao Xiao smiled slightly sarcastically: "I've always been more daring than me." ”
He Ran still frowned, and said, "I was bold when I was forced to be helpless, and now we are not at a disadvantage, so we don't have to gamble so much." ”
"You don't approve of that."
"I can't say that, in fact, I've been thinking about this strategy in my heart, if we can use the opportunity of Tu'anlun's deception to annihilate Xin Yan's elite in one fell swoop, then his lair will have almost no defensive power, as long as we act quickly, we can subdue all the departments under his rule with lightning speed, this is the least costly tactic." He Ran paused here when he said this, "It depends on the situation, the most important thing now is how to annihilate the elite of Xinyan, and if you attack Xinyan's lair, you have to rely on all the elites of the Fanwang, so that the matter of guarding Geqiong City will depend on our men and horses, it depends on whether the people can trust us, and whether they dare to put their lives in our hands, this is not a trivial matter." ”
Xiao Xiao asserted: "Although I don't have much contact with Fanwang, I can see that he is a sincere man, and I think he can trust us." ”
"What you said is right, but what I'm saying is that Fanren is not Fanwang, it's hard to say whether those officials are suspicious or not, don't forget, we just killed tens of thousands of them not long ago."
Xiao Xiao listened to it and admired his thoughtfulness, and said with appreciation: "The magical military advisor is the magical military advisor, unlike us who are generals, who only think about this little thing on the battlefield, I really didn't expect this concern of yours." ”
Hearing Xiao Xiao's sincere praise, He Ran showed an exaggerated look of pride,
Xiao Xiao was a little unwilling to say: "This is a rare opportunity to clean up Xin Yan, if you give up, I don't know what this battle will be like in the future, alas, maybe there will be no result in three or five years." ”
"Don't be discouraged first, I'll go to find out the tone of King Fan later, if he has a strong mind, then this plan will not be feasible if he has not tasted it."
"Okay, you can go quickly." Xiao Xiao was very anxious,
He Ran said with a smile: "Don't be in a hurry for such a big matter, it's still early, wait until we finish checking the terrain and are sure that it's not too late to mention it to him, my righteous brother is too straight-hearted, I'm afraid he will leak the news." ”
Xiao Xiao also felt that he was too uncontrollable, and he seemed to be too embarrassed in front of him, and asked with a little embarrassment, "Are you worried about Yi'an Sect." ”
He Ran nodded with a smile, and said in a calm tone: "King Fan trusts him very much, and we have to be cautious before clearing his suspicions." ”
Xiao Xiao appreciated his meticulousness more and more, seeing that he was calm and calm at the moment, his heart couldn't help but beat wildly, and he couldn't help but stretch out his jade finger and flick it on his forehead, this time it was extremely brittle,
He Ran was dumbfounded, and he was stunned for a moment before he pounced on him with his teeth and claws, and said viciously: "Okay, you, dare to play my braincase, it's strange if I spare you." ”
Xiao Xiao didn't know why he couldn't control him, this action was too intimate, and now there was nothing to say, he couldn't help but pout his mouth with a feverish face and jumped away, He Ran has always been unforgiving, and chased hard, Xiao Xiao dodged a few times and the embarrassed mentality gradually dissipated, and the coquettish smile flew in the house like a butterfly wearing flowers,
He Ran chased for a long time and didn't even touch the corners of other people's clothes, panting and puffing to stop and look at her resentfully, Xiao Xiao covered his mouth and smiled, this happy and joyful look really rarely appeared on her face,
"You wait, I can't spare you." He Ran was ruthless, walked to the side of a few cases and picked up the teacup, it seemed that he was thirsty for running, when he bent over, he peeked and saw Xiao Xiao quietly coming from behind, thinking that he wanted to play him again, He Ran suddenly let go of the teacup when he brought it to his mouth, and let go of the tea and spill his body, he turned around and hugged it violently, this time it was much to Xiao Xiao's surprise, and he exclaimed with a slender foot and shot out of his body backwards, but he could avoid it at this intolerable moment,
He Ran looked at her and was annoyed, Xiao Xiao looked at the piece of tea in front of him, and said angrily and funny: "It's really mad, you can do anything." ”
He Ran suddenly laughed, Xiao Xiao also smiled, and said, "Go and change your clothes." ”
"Well, I'll go shopping when I go back and change." He Ran took two more teacups and poured them into the water, picked up one and took a sip of it, and said with some annoyance: "I can only bring more people here, and I can't be as comfortable as the two of us visiting Xuanding City." ”
Xiao Xiao walked over vigilantly and picked up the tea he had poured for himself, and took a sip gently,
He Ran put down the teacup and walked out of the house, Xiao Xiao just breathed a sigh of relief, he didn't want He Ran to go out and turn back, patted his head and said: "You played me stupidly, I almost forgot about the big thing, I received Shi Lang's fast horse transmission last night, and the soldiers and horses of Shunguo seemed to have moved." ”
"What a change." A smile appeared at the corner of Xiao Xiao's mouth,
He Ran glanced at her angrily, spread out the geographical map and frowned: "Speaking of serious things, don't make any more trouble, the lower reaches of the Rolling Dragon River are frozen, and the soldiers and horses of Shunguo are showing signs of moving downstream." ”
"No worries." Xiao Xiao said lightly,
He Ran raised his head and looked at her quietly: "There is another news, carefully probing and finding out that Zhao Guo sent a secret envoy to Shunguo in the previous paragraph. ”
"You're not kidding, are you?" The smile on the corner of Xiao Xiao's mouth was gone,
He Ran didn't answer, looked down at the geographical map, and said: "Shi Lang has increased his troops to Hechuan Taniguchi, but he feels that it is not the best policy to defend to the death, Mingzhong City is too close to Gukou and Zhao Guodu, and there is no danger to defend nearby, he thinks that moving the capital to Pingcheng is a complete plan, so there is room for maneuver." ”
"Is it too late, you flew the pigeon and passed the book back." Xiao Xiao frowned,
He Ran nodded and said, "There is no good way to move the capital, the matter is urgent, and the news came in the middle of the night, so I didn't disturb you." ”
Xiao Xiao nodded and said, "You don't need to tell me about this kind of thing, you just decide." ”
He Ran stood up, pointed to the geographical map and said: "You are more familiar with the geography over there than me, if you have any suggestions for using soldiers, you can write a letter to Shi Lang, you think about it first, and then we will discuss it later." ”
"Will Shun Guo really join forces with Zhao Guo?" Xiao Xiao was puzzled,
He Ran said with a melancholy face: "I don't believe it either, but I have to guard against it, if this is the case, the place where the Shun army can enter can only be Hechuan Gukou, and then go straight to Mingzhong City, and wait for us to transfer troops to meet it, then it is time for the Zhao army to move, so I told Shi Lang in the letter that you can consider quietly moving the capital at the right time, only let Pingjiang and some important ministers secretly withdraw to Pingcheng, use Mingzhong City as bait, and deploy troops outside the city to seek an opportunity to annihilate the Zhao army first, and at the same time order Su Ming to lead the army to secretly recapture Hechuan Gukou to cut off the retreat of the Shun army. ”
Xiao Xiao's brain was a little big, "Do you want to rush back, I can handle it here." ”
He Ran shook his head slowly, and said, "I'm worried that these news are all fake, maybe it's Jing Yu's trick, the purpose is to transfer us back, so that they can deal with King Fan." ”
"But what if the news is true."
He Ran leaned over to look at the geographical map again, and gestured with his hand: "I did think of an idea, if it is just to defend Geqiong City, Xiangguo and Qilan's men and horses are enough to do it, these people should be okay if they can't defend the city in the field, your subordinates have about 5,000 people, and there are 10,000 horses on the Dongfang Ao side, I want to take 5,000 people to sneak back to Xiangguo secretly, and garrison the Rolling Dragon River, where there is a section of the river that is relatively narrow, and the war is really fighting, I will take the 10,000 people stationed along the coast to force the crossing, enter the Shunwang City, and let the invading Shun army be busy." ”
"You are not allowed to cross the river." Xiao Xiao said in a commanding tone,
He Ran smiled bitterly: "Since Bai Gongbo sent troops, he must have made careful arrangements in advance, and he probably thought of this trick as well, how can I rest assured if I don't go in person, I don't want to lie to you, this kind of thing can't fool you, you should be considerate of me." ”
Xiao Xiao looked at the geographical map distraughtly, and He Ran pointed to a place and said: "Here, a section about ten miles long, the river is less than fifty zhang, but the water flow is very fast, and there are cliffs on both sides, and the loss of the attack will definitely not be small." ”
"I can only let the sailor desperately block the Shunguo sailor, how long do you think they can hold out." Xiao Xiao asked worriedly,
"It's estimated that it will be all over in one day." He Ran's tone was already distressed,
Xiao Xiao pointed to the geographical map and said: "Build more catapults on the shore, if you can't throw flints, oh...... No, the wind is not in our favor, well......, do you think this will work......" Before she finished speaking, she was shocked to find that she had been embraced, and she was still caught in the trick after a long time, he actually made up such a complicated nonsense in order to succeed in the sneak attack, Xiao Xiao's teeth itched,
"I think that's all it takes." He Ran smiled proudly, and hugged her tightly with all his strength,
Xiao Xiao's two arms were clamped, and it was not difficult for her to get out of it if she was hugged so tightly, such as jumping up and throwing him underneath, or hitting him in the ribs with her knees, or lying down and flying up and kicking him in the head and knocking him out ......, but this is a ruthless move, it is difficult to get rid of it without hurting him, she only hesitated for a moment, Sakura was kissed on the lips, and avoided it shyly, she closed her eyes and ......,
