Chapter 505: Deliberate prevarication

"Big brother, Miss Wu asks to see!" Yanzhou City, in a wing room in the backyard of the government, Li Yuntian was at the desk to deal with official business, and Lei Ting walked in to make a statement.

"Oh?" Li Yuntian couldn't help but feel a little surprised when he heard this, and looked up at Lei Ting in surprise, he knew that Dogesa would send someone to ask him for help, but he didn't expect that the person who came would be Wu Qian, Wu Qian should be in Duohai City now.

"Let her in." Then, a smile appeared at the corner of Li Yuntian's mouth, and he bowed slightly to Lei Ting, deciding to meet Wu Qian.

In Li Yuntian's opinion, Wu Qian would not suddenly come to Yanzhou City for no reason, and she also concealed the Ming army checkpoints along the way, which shows that she came to find Dogesa this time to deliberately guard against the Ming army, which means that she is likely to have sensed something bad from the behavior of the Ming army in the occupation of the city, so she reported to Dogesa.

It's a pity that even now Dogesa knows what is happening in Champa and is helpless, because he has been dragged in the Yanzhou capital by the rebels in Jiaozhi and cannot return to China at all.

Moreover, Wu Qian didn't come at the right time, just in time for the Jiaozhi rebels to break through from the Zhancheng military defense area, and there was not enough time for Dogesa to ponder this matter.

I'm afraid that now Dogesa and Wu Qian are even more afraid that they will not send troops to the rescue, and let the Champa army be defeated by the rebels, which will make Dogesa and others be punished.

"Lord General Soldier, my father has received the news that the Jiaozhi rebels are going to escape from the defense area of our army in Champa tonight, please send troops to rescue immediately, and now the two sides should have fought!"

Not long after, the dusty Wu Qian walked in quickly under the guidance of Lei Ting, arched her hand at Li Yuntian, and said anxiously.

"What?" Li Yuntian pretended to be surprised, and asked in a deep voice, "Is the news accurate?" ”

"Absolutely." Wu Qian nodded again and again, urging urgently, "Lord Commander, without further ado, please send troops to the rescue quickly." ”

"Could it be a rebel ploy? They want to deceive our army and then break through from the defense zone of our army? ”

Hearing this, Li Yuntian got up and paced back and forth in the room a few times, looking at Wu Qian with a stern expression, although he knew very well that the rebels were going to break through from the defense area of the Champa army, but this matter was very important, and he could not make a rash decision, otherwise it would arouse suspicion, and he had to take into account all aspects of the situation as if he did not know the inside situation.

Wu Qian was stunned for a moment, she didn't expect this, the scouts of the Zhancheng State only came to report that they found a large number of rebels going to the defense area of the Zhancheng army, and they didn't know if the rebels also sent people to the defense area of the Ming army.

"Miss Wu, don't worry, this official will send scouts to investigate, and if the information is true, this official will immediately send troops to the rescue." Seeing that Wu Qian was stopped by herself, a subtle smile flashed at the corner of Li Yuntian's mouth, and he said to her seriously, "There are 60,000 elite soldiers in Zhancheng, and they will definitely be able to stop the rebels before the reinforcements arrive." ”

"Sister, you go and pass on the military order of this officer, and let our servants all be dispatched to see what the rebels are trying to do tonight." As he spoke, Li Yuntian commanded Lei Ting, who was standing beside Wu Qian, in a deep voice.

"I'll go." Lei Ting responded with understanding, turned around and walked out, ready to stabilize Wu Qian first.

"Lord Commander, the rebels are menacing this time, I'm afraid our army occupying the city won't be able to stop them, wait for those scouts to figure out the situation and then rush over, maybe the rebels have fled."

Without waiting for Lei Ting to take two steps, Wu Qian, who was in a daze there, suddenly came back to her senses, and hurriedly said to Li Yuntian anxiously, "Lord Commander, please send troops to the rescue immediately." ”

Although the distance between the Ming army and the rebel camp was eighty miles, a large part of it was a rugged mountain road, and it would take at least half a day for the Ming army to rush through, and if the scouts had finished scouting the news, the defense line of the Cham soldiers would have collapsed.

"Miss Wu, at this time, you can't be emotional, if there is a mistake, it will be a big mistake!" Li Yuntian looked at Wu Qian solemnly when he heard this, and rejected her request, he also expected that the Champa army and the rebels would be defeated and wounded, how could they send troops lightly?

"Lord Commander, the rebels have now reached the end of the road, they are bound to fight to the death, your army's defense area is close to the coast, and our defense area of the Zhancheng army is not far from Nanzhang, if the rebels stay in Jiaozhi, they will definitely be surrounded and suppressed by your army, so they will definitely choose to flee to Nanzhang to hide, only in this way can they get rid of your army."

Wu Qian saw that Li Yuntian refused to send troops, her heart was suddenly very anxious, she knew that Li Yuntian's excuse was reasonable, so she pondered for a while, quickly found a reason, and said to Li Yuntian in a coquettish voice, analyzing the situation of the rebels.

"It makes sense." Li Yuntian's eyes flashed when he heard this, and he couldn't help but glance at Wu Qian, no wonder Dogesa wanted to send Wu Qian to Sanjiang City to discuss with him about assisting the Ming army in attacking the rebels, Wu Qian was indeed very smart, and he was calm when something happened, and he thought of such a good reason so quickly.

"If Ruan Yan of the rebels also guessed this and used it, if the official sent troops, he would fall for his trick."

However, how could Li Yuntian be persuaded by Wu Qian so easily, and then his words changed, he looked at Wu Qian with a stern expression, and said worriedly, "Although the defense area of your Zhancheng army is close to Nanzhang, if they escape from the defense area of our Ming army and escape from the encirclement set up by their own officials in Yi'an Mansion, then they will quickly flee to Jiaozhi with the advantage of the terrain of Jiaozhi." ”

Because Yi'an City had been under martial law in order to prevent the people from fleeing, except for Li Yuntian who got Cai Fu's secret report, the outside world did not know that Ruan Yan and Chen Yuan had been killed, and Li Yuntian just used it to bluff Wu Qian.

Wu Qian thought that Li Yuntian was moved by what she said, but she never expected that Li Yuntian would give her another problem, and her face suddenly became a little ugly, but she knew that Ruan Yan was the military advisor of the Jiaozhi rebels, resourceful, and a very difficult person to deal with, maybe she would really set a trap like Li Yuntian said.

"Miss Wu, it is the duty of the official to exterminate the Jiaozhi rebels, and the official can't make a choice before clarifying the situation, I hope Miss Wu will forgive me." Seeing that Wu Qian fell into silence, Li Yuntian bowed his head to her slightly, and then gave Lei Ting a look, and Lei Ting left quickly.

Li Yuntian has already estimated the strength of the Champa army and the Jiaozhi rebels, if both sides fight with the main force, then the Champa army can resist at least until tomorrow morning, you must know that the Champa army has not been idle during the stationing in Yanzhou Mansion, and has been conducting intense training, so the combat effectiveness has been greatly improved, and it is not easy for the rebels to defeat it in one fell swoop.

What is certain is that the two sides will fight to the death at that time, and they will surely suffer heavy casualties and greatly damage their vitality.

Therefore, Li Yuntian was ready to postpone the rescue of the Champa army, waiting for it to lose both the rebels and save him a lot of trouble.

As Dogesa guessed, as the hearts of the people of Jiaozhi began to turn towards the Ming Dynasty, the rebels were gradually losing the foundation on which they relied to survive in Jiaozhi, so they could no longer pose a threat to the Ming army, and Li Yuntian's goal had now shifted from Li Li to Jiaozhi.

Even if the rebels fled from the defense area of the Champa army, Li Yuntian would not feel annoyed, because in this way, Dogesa and Lunders would fall into his hands, and it would depend on his mind how to treat them.

Moreover, with Cai Fu by Li Li's side, it was easy for Liu Yuntian to deal with him, as long as Cai Fu killed Li Li, then the rebels who fought a big battle with the Cham army would collapse and collapse without a fight.

"Lord Commander, when will those scouts hear from you?" After Lei Ting left, Wu Qian, who was anxious in her heart, asked with concern, since Li Yuntian had made up her mind, she had no choice but to wait and see.

"They want to probe the enemy's situation on the fifty-mile boundary in Yi'an Mansion, and it is estimated that news will come tomorrow morning, if no trace of the enemy is found, then this officer will order to support your army in the city." Li Yuntian thought for a while and replied that he was going to delay the time until dawn and then send troops to support, when the Ming army rushed to the end, the battle between the Champa army and the rebels should have come to an end or had ended, and the Ming army could just sit back and enjoy the benefits of the fisherman.

"Tomorrow morning?" Wu Qian was quite disappointed when she heard this, which meant that the Ming army would not be able to reach the camp of the Champa army until tomorrow afternoon at the earliest, and I am afraid that even if the Champa army could hold out until that time, I am afraid that it would suffer heavy casualties.

"Miss Wu, don't be impatient, this matter is very important, you can't be in a hurry, you go down to rest first, and the official will notify you as soon as there is news." Li Yuntian looked at Wu Qian, who was worried, and said quietly.

Wu Qian squirmed the corners of her mouth when she heard this, and wanted to say something, but she didn't know how to speak, Li Yuntian's reason made her powerless to refute, so she bowed to Li Yuntian and left with a gloomy expression, and went to rest in the wing.

Looking at Wu Qian's lonely back, Li Yuntian couldn't help but feel unbearable, but whether or not sending troops involved military affairs involved in military affairs, how could he pity Xiangxiang and cherish the jade? So he shook his head and continued to sit at the desk to review the official documents.

Before leaving, Dogsa's advice to her echoed in her ears, if Li Yuntian could not send troops to rescue in time, then the Champa army would probably encounter a catastrophe this time, not only to fight with the rebels but also to be plotted by Li Yuntian.

Suddenly, Wu Qian stopped, looked up at the sky outside the window, her willow eyebrows frowned slightly, and then she seemed to have made up her mind, bit her lip and walked quickly to the door.

In the bedroom, Li Yuntian, who had been busy all day, yawned and walked to the bedside, because he rushed to see the results of the battle between the Champa army and the rebels the next day, so he was ready to sleep and recuperate enough to deal with tomorrow's affairs.

"Lord Commander, I have something important to discuss." As soon as he lay down on the bed, Wu Qian's voice sounded outside the door.

"Miss Wu, what's the matter with you?" Li Yuntian smiled a little helplessly when he heard this, it seemed that Wu Qian did not give up and wanted to continue to persuade himself to send troops, so he got up and opened the door, pretending to be puzzled and looking at Wu Qian outside the door.

Under the cold moonlight, Wu Qian stood there with a cramped expression, her cheeks were rosy, she hesitated in the face of Li Yuntian's inquiry, and then entered the house with a brisk step, and paid attention to the door with a bang.

Li Yuntian was slightly stunned when he saw this, then reacted, and took a few steps back vigilantly, could it be that Wu Qian wanted to use force to coerce him to send troops?
