Chapter 68: The Trap
"Bah, we have been instructed by a great sage and good teacher, and we have already put life and death aside, how can we be tempted by you and take refuge in the government?"
Wulu angrily refused Wang Shuang's surrender, and commanded Qu to rush forward to meet Zhang Yan's army.
"Rush me!"
Wang Shuang rode his horse forward, pounced on the five deer, the two horses intersected, the battle had five or six rendezvous, the five deer could not be covered, and the knife was defeated. Seeing that the main general was defeated, Wulu's troops were even more frightened, fled in embarrassment, and collapsed.
Wang Shuang's command commanded a burst of shock, killing seven or eight hundred people, and did not continue the pursuit. Because the task assigned to him by Yuan Mai was to line up in the middle section of the valley leading to the Fu Caliber, and to pick up the troops that followed behind. chased and killed the Black Mountain rout, but fell second, so Wang Shuang did not chase after him, and let Wulu and others escape.
The valley in the middle was silent at the moment, revealing a hint of weirdness.
After robbing the grain and grass, Zheng Gu beckoned his subordinates down the hillside, preparing to meet the large forces of Wang Dang and Sun Qing to the south to avoid the counterattack of the officers and soldiers. But he was surprised to find that the officers and soldiers who had been killed in the past did not come back, and they seemed to be indifferent to the robbery of grain and grass, which made Su Gu feel that something was not right!
"I have already robbed the grain once, according to the reason, the officers and soldiers should not put the grain and grass at the end, but in the middle, right? Grain and grass are very important to officers and soldiers, and Koji Yi will not be so mentally retarded to make the same mistake twice, right? ”
"Shhh...... Odd! ”
In the beginning, the situation of the war was ever-changing, and there was no room for too much thought. Calming down at this moment, the more he thought about it, the more outrageous he felt, and he had a bad feeling in his heart, and hurriedly ordered: "Open all the grain trucks and see if there is grain and grass inside?" ”
In the dark night, there was a "crackling" sound, and the Montenegrin army checked the grain and grass carts one after another, and they could see clearly under the light of the torches, where there was grain and grass, and the carriages were all loaded with stones of different sizes!
"Grandma is a bear, what kind of medicine did the officers and soldiers buy in the gourd?" Confused, he ordered the whole army to stand by on the spot. Wait until you have figured out the motives of the officers and men before making a decision.
"Drive!"
"Drive!"
"Get out of the way, get out of the way...... We are Zhang Pingnan's messenger, let Wei Qushuai come to see us! ”
With the sound of horses' hooves from far and near, more than 20 horsemen wearing the banner of Zhang Yan and wearing Montenegrin military uniforms flew in.
"It's not good, why did the news reach Zhang Pingnan's ears so quickly?" If Zhang Yan knew that he had let the main force of officers and soldiers go over and not move, he would definitely not spare himself.
"Well, where am I, what have the messengers brought in? What does Zhang Pingnan command? ”
He didn't dare to snub Zhang Yan's envoy, so he greeted him with a smile and asked respectfully. In the darkness of the night, this group of centaurs couldn't see clearly, but they felt a little familiar. There are more than 100,000 Montenegrin troops, which one can know them all?
The person who was on the horse first was a sturdy man, the horsewhip in his hand was fixed, and he shouted: "Zhang Ping, let me ask you, why did you let the main force of officers and soldiers go over and let them attack Wulu in front and back?" As a result, the Wulu Department was almost wiped out, what do you want? Want to betray Montenegro? ”
"Don't dare, don't dare, Zhang Ping can't order the flag to point wherever I want, I will kill wherever I can! How dare you betray Zhang Pingnan's orders. It's just that the officers and soldiers are elite and can't be stopped. Su Gu explained with a smile.
"It is difficult for Zhang Ping to give orders, and the Wulu Department has almost lost all of them in this battle, all because you let the officers and soldiers cross the valley. In a few days, give half of your part to Wulu to make up for his loss! The whip in the messenger's hand shook the sky, and said in an unquestioning tone.
After listening to the great urgency, he gave half of it to Wulu, then he would become a small tribe, and his status would plummet. In a hurry, he was a little unscrupulous: "The envoy listened to my defense, although I did not block the main force of the officers and soldiers, but I robbed them of their grain and grass......
"Smack!" With a bang, the whip in the messenger's hand shook the sky again, and he interrupted Zhenggu's words without saying anything: "In this case, quickly send the grain and grass through the caliber and send it to Zhang Pingnan's camp, and he will distribute it together!" ”
"But......" Zheng Gu was even more anxious, and he didn't know how to explain for a while, he had robbed a hundred and ten fucking carts of stones, where to get him grain and grass? But as soon as these words came out of my mouth, I don't know how to explain them?
"Leave, go back to Zhang Ping's life!"
But the messenger did not want to talk to him again, turned the horse's head, and went down with a whip, and the horse neighed, and galloped first, followed by more than twenty horsemen, and raised a cloud of smoke and dust, and gradually disappeared into the night.
"Haha, Brother Jiang Cheng, you can do it, this messenger is dressed as a real person, I am ready to fight, as long as I can see through our identity. I'll use a secret weapon to sneak up on him, and I'll strike first! ”
After this group of more than 20 Black Mountain thieves stayed away from the Zhenggu tribe, they gradually slowed down their horses, and the two leaders led by them walked side by side, discussing the scene just now.
It was Xue Qin, a ranger who was promoted to the head of the tun by Hao Zhao, who spoke. The other leader of the messenger who had just talked to Zheng Gu was also promoted by Hao Zhao, and Jiang Cheng, a good horse archer!
"Hehe, I've been a Black Mountain thief for a few days, of course I want to dress up!" Jiang Cheng grinned and smiled. Then he explained: "I was not willing, I was caught by them on the cottage, and if I didn't obey, I would be beheaded, so I had to disguise myself as a thief and find an opportunity to escape." ”
"What you said is seamless, Zheng Gu must regard us as Zhang Yan's messengers, it is estimated that this will be facing the stone! Haha......" Xue Qin couldn't help but laugh as he imagined his embarrassment.
Jiang Cheng couldn't help but smile: "Haha...... It's all a good ploy to buy a son.,This conversation was all told to me by him in advance.,It's really similar to what Su Gu said! ”
At this moment, as they said, sitting on the ground and not knowing what to do, he was so worried that he almost wanted to cry out loud!
Letting the main force of officers and soldiers go over and not resisting has violated Zhang Yan's military order. And this directly led to the almost annihilation of the Wulu Division, Zhang Yan asked himself to allocate half of the people to make up for Wulu, which was already considered a light haircut, but Zheng Gu still couldn't accept it, and he really didn't dare to imagine that his troops only had two or three thousand people, and at that time, Qu Shuai, who was under him, would definitely surpass him.
What's even worse is that just now he told the envoy that he had robbed the grain and grass, and the envoy didn't care about the indiscriminate and didn't allow himself to tell the difference, so he turned his horse away......
After they reported back to Zhang Yan, Zhang Yan and the commanders of the various departments would definitely ask for food and grass from them, and at that time, they would not be able to explain it even if they were covered with mouths. Who believes that the robbery was a hundred and ten carts of stones? If you don't get it right, you will end up being treated as a traitor who sells his brothers and swallows grain and grass, and is spurned by various tribes!
Thinking of this, sweat broke out on his forehead, and he gathered a few cronies and leaders to discuss what to do next?
"Qu Shuai, Wulu was destroyed, Zhang Pingnan has already been furious, let's tell him that there is no food and grass, he fell into the trap of the officers and soldiers, and robbed more than 100 carts of stones, Zhang Yan will definitely not believe it, I am afraid that the Montenegrin Army will not be able to tolerate us!" A soldier analyzed with a worried stomach.
"What can I do?" He stroked the stubble on his cheeks, gritting his teeth, the officers and soldiers were too fucking dark!
"Otherwise, let's go to the party and defect to Zhang Yang Taishou, I heard that he is recruiting soldiers and horses, we have another 6,000 people, Zhang Taishou will definitely reuse us!" Another military candidate suggested.
He nodded and sighed: "It seems that this can only be the case, there is no place for me to stand in Montenegro!" I just don't know if Zhang Yang Taishou is willing to take me in? ”
At this moment, the scout came to report: "Qu Shuai, I have caught a few officers and soldiers, they say that they are the envoys sent by the son of the Jizhou Mu Yuan Shao family to see you, I don't know what to do?" ”
"The son of the Yuan family? What does he want to see me for? He was a little puzzled, his eyes flashed with excitement, and he waved his hand and said, "Bring someone up, present the letter and read it!" ”
The scout received the order, and it didn't take much effort to bring two messengers over, not so much to be caught, but to say that they took the initiative to find the Black Mountain thief. One of them was eloquent and gave a salute to Wei Gu: "I have seen Wei Qu Shuai, I came to see you on the order of General Yuan, and there is a letter to submit, presumably Qu Shuai will have his own decision after reading it!" ”
