Chapter 327: Breaking the Game [I]
Although Zhou Yanpet could hear that Li Cunhuan was not willing to implement this plan, Zhou Yanpet was not discouraged, and continued to persuade: "Poor Dao knows what His Highness scruples, but the real meaning of Poor Dao, I'm afraid His Highness doesn't know yet, Poor Dao actually wants to secretly Chen Cang!" ”
When Li Cunhuan heard this, he was slightly stunned, but Li Cunhuan was not stupid, hesitated for a moment, and said affirmatively: "The Chen Cang that the military advisor said is Wei Bo!" ”
Zhou Yanpet nodded and said: "Poor Dao has been pondering for more than half a month, and if it continues like this, even if it wins, it will be a miserable victory." So Poor Dao is ready to take a risk. On the one hand, His Royal Highness sent Xiao generals to invite battle, and on the other hand, he sent elite iron cavalry along the Yellow River to attack Weizhou! Although Wei Boluo Hongxin was on guard, his soldiers and horses were mainly concentrated at the junction of Dezhou and Jizhou. Your Highness, if you are fast enough! After capturing Weizhou, Luo Hongxin's granary was cut off, and Luo Hongxin's soldiers were in turmoil, and at that time, even if they didn't surrender, they couldn't beat His Highness's iron cavalry! ”
Zhou Yanpet probably said a little dry, picked up the boiled water that had already been poured next to him, drank a big sip, and then continued: "And on the side of the invitation, if you win, the morale will disappear, our army's morale is getting higher and higher, and the Xuanwu army is getting more and more low. Even if His Highness took away part of the soldiers and horses, the morale also replaced this part. If defeated, our army will naturally retreat to Heyang City, I am afraid that Zhu Wen will not notice the changes on Wei Bo's side for a while, and wholeheartedly take advantage of the situation to expand the results. And our army has Heyang City to rely on, and Poor Dao thinks that Zhu Wen has not yet taken Heyang City, and His Highness has pacified Wei Bo! ”
When Li Cunhuan heard this, he shook his head and said: "It is best to be able to invite the battle to win, otherwise when the army's morale is unstable, this king will not dare to send troops to attack Weizhou at will!" Besides, Zhu Wen probably couldn't think of your plan, but Jing Xiang probably would. ”
But having said that, Li Cunhuan was still moved by Zhou Yanpet's words. Looking at Yelu Abaoji, who was on the back of a tiger, he asked, "Abaoji, are you sure to deal with Wang Yanzhang?" ”
"I don't know, I don't know how powerful it is if I don't fight." Yelu Abaoji said cautiously, Yelu Abaoji's martial arts are not low, especially in terms of riding skills and strength, needless to say, it can be said that from the moment the grassland people were born, horseback riding has been deeply rooted in their bones. When the children of the Central Plains were still playing with the mud and sand at the age of seven or eight, they had already begun to graze on horseback, and at the age of thirteen or fourteen they had already begun hunting, not to mention a ferocious steppe wolf.
In terms of strength, Yelu Abaoji is using a Mo knife, and it is estimated that Yelu Abaoji is using the Mo knife as a Daguan knife. The riding bow is a three-stone pitch-black bow. One stone is equal to one hundred and twenty catties, and one catty in the Tang Dynasty is about 600 grams, so you can imagine the strength of Yelu Abaoji! That's why Li Cunhuan asked.
Li Cunhuan listened to Yelu Abaoji's words and nodded, Li Cunhuan is still quite jealous of Wang Yanzhang, and Yelu Abaoji is so cautious. Li Cunhuan pondered for a moment, and asked Zhou Yanzhong: "Military advisor, do you want to order the eldest brother and Gao Si to follow them?" ”
Zhou Yanpet shook his head and said: "Poor Dao seems to be useless, it is needless to say that General Yelu Abaoji is brave, and General Zhu Jin is even better at using the horse lance, known as the first lance general in the Central Plains!" And although Shi Jianjiao is young, his martial arts may not be able to beat Xuanwu Wang Yanzhang, a fierce general! Besides, time is not allowed. ”
Li Cunhuan gritted his teeth and said, "Okay!" Abaoji, you go and prepare, just tell Zhu Jin and Shi Jianjiao about them, let them also be prepared, and fight tomorrow! ”
"Good!" Yelu Abaoji nodded, didn't need to say anything, turned around and withdrew from the Chinese army's tent.
The next day, although there was no snow, the sky became more and more gloomy, and people couldn't help but feel a sense of impending a storm.
Li Cunhuan didn't need to bring too many people to challenge, but just brought Yelu Abaoji and other generals and 8,000 black-clothed soldiers. Eight thousand black-clothed soldiers in black armor and black armor were particularly conspicuous when they walked in the white sky, and the howling cold wind could not dye the blowing snow flakes white.
The Blackcoats didn't move fast, and they didn't have the slightest intention of disguising their whereabouts. Therefore, the Xuanwu Army's Tabai Army soon discovered the whereabouts of the Black-clothed Army. But this also makes them a little strange, you say attack, then you have to lead at least 50,000 or 60,000 troops, not only 8,000 men. But when you say running, not to mention that the war horse is also replaced by a white horse, but at least you have to change into white clothes and white armor, and the scouts scattered, strangling the white army of the Xuanwu Army to cover up their whereabouts.
(Stepping on the White Army: The Tang and Song Dynasty scouts are mostly named after this, but it is not absolute, and Lu Long's scouts are the capture generals.) )
But no matter how weird things are, stepping on the white army doesn't use stupid self-pondering slowly. On the one hand, he quickly sent someone to ride a fast horse to inform the commander, and on the other hand, he sent someone to follow the black-clothed army.
Zhu Wen was also quite strange when he received this information, and he didn't know what kind of trick Li Cunhuan was doing. However, Zhu Wen also saw a problem, that is, the cavalry brought by Li Cunhuan in the mouth of the scout was all one man and two horses, that is, Li Cunhuan was not afraid that Zhu Wen would lead the army to outflank him. This area is all plains, and even the dense forests and grasses have already withered at this time of year. The forest was full of dry branches, and the grass had turned into snowdrifts. It is impossible to ambush Li Cunhuan. Sending troops to besiege it, I'm afraid that the people haven't arrived yet, and Li Cunhuan, who is alone and two horses, is afraid that he has already run away like an arrow from the string.
found the military advisor Jing Xiang to come and let Jing Xiang staff and staff, Jing Xiang couldn't figure it out for a while, and finally said to Zhu Wen: "Chitose, the lower officials don't quite understand Li Cunhuan's thoughts, but there are certain subordinates who can basically be sure that Li Cunhuan is here, I'm afraid it's not for the bloody battlefield." But it was also impossible to wander with an army of eight thousand cavalry. At present, the only way to brake is to use static, and at the same time, Chitose has also sent more people to the White Army to investigate whether there is any change in the Lu Long Army. ”
Zhu Hanbin, the righteous son beside Zhu Wen, couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this, and couldn't help asking: "Military advisor, since Li Cunhuan has no intention of fighting on the battlefield, why do you send more people to step on the white army?" There are so many cavalry in our army, and there are too many sends, I am afraid that the soldiers are too tired, and there will be loopholes at night. ”
Without waiting for Jing Xiang to reply, Zhu Wen had already taught Zhu Hanbin a lesson, "I told you to read more often, don't think that you can achieve great things with all your martial arts." Li Cunhuan is the most cunning and cunning. Who knows if he is a striking. ”
"Wouldn't it? Li Cunhuan has the courage to risk his life? The truth that the son of a daughter can't sit down also knows it, but Li Cunhuan doesn't know it? Is he so ruthless? Zhu Hanbin said in disbelief when he heard this.
Zhu Wen didn't bother to explain more to this Yizi who had more brain muscles than brains, pouted at Jing Xiang, and motioned for Jing Xiang to come and answer.
Jing Xiang said with a smile: "Childe, I don't know, it was said that Li Cunhuan personally led the troops here, who knows if this is not." With the banner of Li Cunhuan, it is not necessarily Li Cunhuan himself who really came. As for Li Cunhuan's people, they can find a stand-in. Lu Longjun has nearly 90,000 people in his entire army, isn't there one who is seven or eight points similar to Li Cunhuan's figure and appearance? You must know that stepping on the white army is only hidden in the snow, and you can take a look at it from a distance. After all, Lu Long's catcher is not a paper tiger. So it's hard to argue whether Li Cunhuan really came, or just a stand-in. ”
When Zhu Hanbin heard this, he snorted coldly and said, "Father, whether Li Cunhuan is true or not, since Li Cunhuan is so bold and goes deep into our military jurisdiction. As long as your father gives an order, a certain family will take the wild goose and capture him Li Cunhuan alive! Dedicated to the Father! ”
Zhu Wen was angry and funny when he heard this, if Li Cunhuan was so easy to catch, he Zhu Wen would not be as embarrassed as he is today. But he still felt Zhu Hanbin's loyalty, waved his hand and said: "This thing can't be reckless, it is estimated that Li Cunhuan has almost revealed his true intentions!" ”
As soon as Zhu Wen's words fell, he heard the sound of footsteps coming outside. When Jing Xiang heard this, he smiled dumbly and said, "Could it be that he was really said by Chitose!" ”
This really made Zhu Wen right, I saw the carved wooden door open, and a cold wind blew in, but everyone here has practiced martial arts, and they are not afraid of the cold. Everyone stared at the carved wooden door, only to see Zhu Wen's henchman Li Zhen walking in with a broken arrow and a feather arrow, and a letter was tied to a soft red rope on the shaft.
When Jing Xiang saw it, a flash of understanding flashed in his eyes, and he smiled.
"It was sent by Li Cunhuan's kid!" Zhu Wen said disdainfully, but his eyes were fixed on the letter. Apparently he had a rough estimate of who sent it.
Li Zhen also knew that Zhu Wen was dead, so he said this, and he didn't care, and handed it over with a smile. said: "It was Li Cunhuan who sent someone to shoot at the White Army, and the White Army sent it over again." I guess the purpose of this time was also mentioned above. ”
"Let's see what Li Cunhuan sells!" Zhu Wen took the letter handed over by Li Zhen, but he didn't open it to look at it, because Zhu Wen didn't know many words, so as not to be ashamed. Hand the envelope to Jing Xiang, who was in the presence of the old god on the side.
Although Li Zhen, who was standing on the side, smiled, a trace of jealousy that could not be concealed flashed in the depths of his eyes, although he was also a minister, but Jingxiang's status was much higher than Li Zhen. What made Li Zhen most angry was that he asked himself that his strategy was not much worse than Jing Xiang, and even surpassed Jing Xiang in some aspects, but he was not as trusted and reused by Zhu Wen as Jing Xiang. How can this be called how Li Zhen is not jealous and hostile to Jing Xiang.
What made Li Zhen even more jealous was that although Zhu Wen didn't say anything about Li Zhen, compared with Jing Xiang, it was a big gap. The right to enter and exit the study alone is already reflected in the level of trust.
Jing Xiang took the letter and lowered his head as if he was watching intently, but if someone saw Jing Xiang's eyes at this moment, they must have seen Jing Xiang, who had always been calm, and a touch of helplessness flashed in his eyes. For Li Zhen's jealousy, how can Jing Xiang, who is wise and close to demons, not know, but he can't untie this dead knot because Li Zhen is not jealous, so he can only let himself be trampled under Li Zhen's feet, how can Jing Xiang, who is proud in his heart, let this situation happen!
There are not many words on the letter, and Li Cunhuan uses vernacular and punctuation, so it is very easy to interpret. Jing Xiang glanced at it, and he already roughly knew Li Cunhuan's intention. folded the letter and said with a smile: "Chitose, Li Cunhuan wants to play heads-up." ”
"Humph! Li Cunhuan, this guy, I didn't expect to dare to play heads-up! I don't know that I am a fierce general! Zhu Wen was slightly stunned when he heard this, and immediately said disdainfully, but he didn't know why Zhu Wen's eyes flashed with a hint of jealousy. Coughing, Zhu Wen asked Li Zhen with some embarrassment: "Strategist, is there a way to deal with that beast!" ”
Of course, 'that beast' did not refer to the real beast, but Zhu Wen's contemptuous name for Li Cunxiao. However, Zhu Wen dared to despise him, and he really faced Li Cunxiao, and Zhu Wen was afraid that he would meet a tiger alone. So don't look at the arrogance that Zhu Wen said, in fact, he is still quite afraid of the fierce generals under Li Cunhuan, especially Li Cunxiao.
When Jing Xiang heard this, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up slightly, revealing a smile. However, he quickly reined in and comforted Zhu Wen: "This is not necessary, the lower officials think that Li Cunxiao is definitely not possible to come, we only received a secret report from Yanhai yesterday, Li Cunxiao fought with General Pang Shigu in Jeju." Where is it possible for Li Cunxiao to come so quickly. Besides, now Yanhai's side is just relying on Li Cunxiao's courage to improve morale, and Liu Cheng is dragging Yang Xingmi's hind legs behind, which has formed a stalemate. Li Cunhuan would not be stupid enough to risk the collapse of the Yanhai defense line for the sake of a heads-up. ”
Zhu Wen nodded, and knew that he was too jealous of Li Cunxiao. As soon as I heard that I was going alone, I couldn't help but think about Li Cunxiao. This made Zhu Wen a little annoyed, showed a hideous smile, and said, "Hmph! Since Li Cunhuan wants to play this, if the lone king doesn't fight, won't he lose morale! Han Bin, you personally go and summon the generals in the army to go out of the camp with the Lone King to face the battle! ”
"The child obeys!" When Zhu Hanbin heard this, he responded excitedly and left the Chinese army's tent quickly.
Then Zhu Wen sent people to dispatch troops, but because Li Cunhuan's soldiers and horses this time were only 8,000 people, Zhu Wen didn't want to be left behind. also brought 8,000 people, and brought more, which obviously means that he is afraid of Li Cunhuan, but if it is less, Zhu Wen also has some heart palpitations Li Cunhuan really transferred Li Cunxiao to raid him. After all, Li Cunhuan has never played cards according to common sense. Besides, if Zhu Wen is captured, I am afraid that there will be nothing to lose a few cities on the Yanhai and Pinglu sides. After all, as soon as Zhu Wen died, Xuanwu would fall into civil strife, Pang Shigu on the Yanhai side would definitely withdraw his troops, and how much territory could Yang Xingmi occupy alone. And Li Cunhuan can accept Zhu Wen's territory calmly, and it is not too late to settle accounts with Yang Xingmi afterwards.
Let's say that when Zhu Wen led the troops out of the camp, Li Cunhuan had just arrived, and both sides couldn't help but be slightly stunned, it seems that the two sides really have a 'heart'.
Seeing this situation, Li Cunhuan also looked for Zhu Wen to be polite, and nodded to Yelu Abaoji. Yelu Abaoji immediately rode out on horseback. Yelu Abaoji, who was full of savage atmosphere, looked particularly brave. shouted: "Lu Long Yelu Abaoji is here, who dares me to fight!" ”
When Zhu Hanbin saw this, he couldn't help but be a little surprised that Li Cunhuan went straight to the point, but immediately showed an excited face and said: "Father, please let the child fight!" ”
When Zhu Wen heard this, he couldn't help but hesitate, his original intention was to let Wang Yanzhang go to war and kill Li Cunhuan first for a while. But Zhu Hanbin asked for battle, and Zhu Wen was not easy to refute, after all, it was not impossible for him to let Wang Yanzhang fight, but didn't this mean that Zhu Hanbin was greatly inferior to Wang Yanzhang? This has dealt a serious blow to Zhu Hanbin's positive surname, and the following group of generals may also be a little dissatisfied with Zhu Wen's emphasis on Wang Yanzhang so much.
Jing Xiang is worthy of being Zhu Wen's confidant, and when he saw Zhu Wen's face, he knew that Zhu Wen was in trouble. As soon as his eyes rolled, he had already made up his mind and stood up to solve problems for Zhu Wen.
I saw Jing Xiang persuade Zhu Hanbin and said: "Son, the lower officials know that the most heroic people under Li Cunhuan this time are Shi Jianjiao and Zhu Jin's old horseman. The current challenge is just a clown jumping beam, where to use the son to go out in person! Besides, Li Cunhuan sent this person, how can he have some skills, not to mention that the son was injured for a while, but he also had to spend a lot of strength, so that Zhu Jin invited the battle by name, and the son was killed, and it was inevitable that he would ......"
For Hedong Shi Jianjiao, Zhu Hanbin also knows a few of his deeds, and knows that he is a fierce general who can compete with Wang Yanzhang. Needless to say, Zhu Hanbin is the commander of Luoyan Capital. It was originally set up for Zhu Jin's geese. There are a lot of fights with Zhu Jin, so he naturally knows how powerful Zhu Jin is, and he also knows that he and Zhu Jin are only half a catty, if he is really not in his heyday to deal with Zhu Jin in his heyday, he will really lose more and win less.
When Zhu Hanbin heard this, he nodded with a suddenly realized expression and said, "Yes!" If you kill this general, you can certainly show the prestige of a certain family, but I'm afraid it will be a little difficult to deal with Zhu Jin for a while! You can't let that old puppet take advantage of a certain family. ”
However, Zhu Hanbin was not completely stupid, and felt that Jing Xiang had the intention of pushing and prevaricating, so he opened his mouth and continued: "But Shi Jianjiao's guy has to let Wang Yanzhang deal with it, otherwise a certain family can't stop two people!" ”
When Jing Xiang heard this, he was slightly stunned and smiled. He didn't expect that he would be countered by Zhu Hanbin.
When Zhu Wen heard this, he also smiled, obviously thinking about the same as Jing Xiang, nodded to Zhu Hanbin and said, "Hanbin can't think of a little bit of a plan!" But that's a good thing to say, huh! Let Wang Yantong make a move! Yanzhang often said that his younger brother had already obtained seven or eight points of his true biography, and he believed that dealing with a small general was just a matter of being caught! It's really not good, it's not too late for you to go out again! ”
When Zhu Hanbin heard this, he smiled proudly. Obviously, I was very happy to be able to salute Xiang once.
And on the battlefield over there, Wang Yantong, who had already received Zhu Wen's order, also rode out on horseback, Wang Yantong was not as powerful as his brother, but had a little white face, and his appearance was quite delicate.
However, Yelu Abaoji didn't need to despise it, because Wang Yantong was still holding an iron gun, and that guy was no lighter than the Mo knife in Yelu Abaoji's hand.
