The night breeze was cool, and the banks of the river were like a silent pantomime, and the soldiers were doing their own thing. But with the arrival of the pursuing Chinese army, the brief silence also came to an end. On the north bank of the river, the fires were lit, and the cavalry lined up in black pressure, but they did not launch an attack at the first time.

Seeing the arrival of the main force of the chasing soldiers, Han Jian also knew that it was the most critical period. He lifted his sword and found that he had nothing to do. I could have learned to play a song from Kong Ming on the city tower, but unfortunately there was no piano, and even if there was a piano, the opposite side of the black light couldn't see what he was doing.

At this time, the best thing in front of Han Jian is to chase the soldiers and retreat, whether it is because Sun Shaoqian is fascinated by this empty city plan, or Sun Shaoqian has a basic heart of loyalty to the monarch and the country, as long as the chasing soldiers can retreat, then in the next few days, they will be stable, and they can travel at least hundreds of miles without chasing soldiers in these few days. But there are some things that Han Jian also knows that he can't take for granted, if the pursuers on the other side of the river refuse to be fooled, then there is only a bloody battle. Although the military strength of the two sides is 600 to 3,000, they are not without a chance of winning, and Han Jian has seen his side decline before as a Jedi rebirth.

Time passed minute by minute, and in the end, it became such a pantomime of confrontation across the river. The pursuers did not retreat, but they did not attack.

As the protagonist of "Empty City Plan" with Han Jian, Yang Li'er was a little anxious, she didn't want to wait like this, she could only ask Han Jian again: "What is this?" Did the plan succeed or not? ”

"If it didn't work, wouldn't the pursuers have already crossed the river?" Han Jian said calmly.

Yang Li'er said: "But the chasing soldiers have not retreated!" ”

Han Jian sighed: "It took a day for the chasing soldiers to catch up here, if it was Miss Yang." Will you be bluffed by the image in front of you, and then rashly withdraw from the army? ”

Yang Li'er was slightly relieved and said, "Definitely not, the whole army will definitely not accept it." ”

"Hmm." Han Jian said, "Give the order to go down, camp on the spot, and just treat the chasing soldiers as if there is no zài." As for the soldiers, they can take off their armor and rest first. ”

"Removing the armor?" This time, Yang Li'er couldn't understand, although the empty city plan may be slightly effective, but he can't let his soldiers "unload" because of this. At this time, the pursuers should be killed across the river. The soldiers were caught off guard and were not waiting to be slaughtered?

But Han Jian obviously didn't think so. In Han Jian's opinion, since the strategy is effective, then fill in another handful of firewood and completely confuse the pursuers on the other side of the river. He expected. Sun Shaoqian should also know very well how many soldiers there are in the East Wangfu and the South Wangfu. Six hundred soldiers. Before the war started, Sun Shaoqian must have unheard of it. I saw that the opposite side was camped and rested, and the soldiers were unarmoured. The more seasoned the generals, the more they know that there is deception, and only those who are fledgling will think that this is the best time to attack.

Han Jian saw that the camp of the soldiers behind him was almost set up, and said, "Miss Yang, I don't think there is any need for the two of us in front now. Just go back and rest first, I'm a little tired after two days of hard work. ”

As he spoke, Han Jian yawned.

"You're going to rest?" Yang Li'er asked.

"If you don't rest, how can you have time to continue your journey tomorrow?" Han Jian said, "Along the way, we must seize any opportunity to replenish our body, and only in this way can we ask the pursuers to go back to see our parents and relatives." ”

Yang Li'er didn't expect Han Jian to mention her relatives at this moment, thinking of her parents, Yang Li'er was suddenly a little ashamed, she disobeyed her father's order and sent Dongwang and his party north without permission. This time, even if she is the second Miss Nanwang, she will not be beheaded for violating military orders, and she will be punished for this. In the future, her own power to act cheaply will inevitably be tightened. That will not be far from the day she will get married. Although Huang Lie in her eyes has no ability, looking at the entire land of Yuzhou in Nanwangfu, Huang Lie is her best candidate for husband. Yang Li'er couldn't help but think sadly, if she went back to marry Huang Lie, it would be better to die in battle!

At this time, Han Jian had already returned to the camp through the snow, and the soldiers had already set up the camp, and after burying the pot to make food, many people had already eaten a full meal, and they didn't know whether to go in to rest or be ready to fight at any time. The people from the East and South Prince's Mansions came over to ask for instructions and inquire about the next step.

"All go into tents to avoid the wind, it's too cold outside." Han Jian said in a calm tone, "Even if you can't sleep, let's rest for a while." I'm going to be on my way tomorrow. ”

Zhang Xing was ordered to go down to make arrangements, but the generals of the Southern Wangfu did not arrange it immediately, but instead asked Yang Li'er with an inquiring gaze.

"Do as the king of the east says." Yang Li'er said coldly.

At this time, the generals of the Nanwang Mansion went down to give orders.

Seeing that Yang Li'er cooperated with him so much, Han Jian couldn't help but laugh and said, "Miss Yang is not afraid that the plan will not work?" ”

"It's not like that." Yang Li'er sighed, "With the current state of the soldiers below, it is difficult to cope with this battle, so I just rest first." Mind you, if the pursuers send out a small army to go around the woods and probe our rear and find that we have no reinforcements, then the plan will be uncovered immediately. ”

"Miss Yang, don't worry, I have already arranged this." Han Jian smiled slightly.

"That's my mouth?" Yang Li'er heard Han Jian say it so lightly, she naturally thought that Han Jian looked down on her, and she was a little angry and wanted to avoid it.

When she walked away, she turned around and found that Han Jian had also entered the tent herself, and Yang Li'er suddenly felt a little lost in her heart. Originally, she thought that if she was so angry and walked away, Han Jian would chase after her and comfort her, even if she was not comforted, she would explain. But Han Jian didn't plan to do so.

Yang Li'er couldn't help but shake her head helplessly, and suddenly realized that she had nowhere to go.

As the night deepened, the confrontation on both sides of the river continued. The pursuers have not moved on the riverbank, and Sun Shaoqian, the supreme commander in the chasing camp, is also arranging the next military plan.

Just like Han Jian's original intention of using the empty city plan, when the pursuers reached the riverbank and saw such a scene on the opposite side, the pursuers camp was indeed taken aback.

They had never heard of such a defensive position with the door wide open, so the vanguard general hurriedly notified Sun Shaoqian and several major generals of the Chinese army in the rear, and Sun Shaoqian's order at that time was to wait for the arrival of the Chinese army before making the next move.

When the Chinese army arrived at the riverbank, Sun Shaoqian personally saw the defense line on the other side of the river, which could not be called armed, and he was also thinking about what tricks were being played on the other side. At this time, the generals below began to make some noise, thinking that it should be the best reality to kill the past at this time.

"Can't you see that the enemy is cheating?" Sun Shaoqian sternly questioned the generals below.

Sun Shaoqian was the general of the Eastern Wuwei Guard, although the official position was prominent, but in order to prevent the army from becoming self-reliant, the Wei Dynasty was not responsible for the training of troops in peacetime. Until there is a military mission, an army will be assigned to the general of the guard and ordered to lead the army into battle. These generals are not Sun Shaoqian's descendants, and they are only temporarily matched to carry out this pursuit mission.

When Sun Shaoqian proposed that "the enemy has deceit", the following is not very sure. Although the king of the east was not long in the morning, they also heard that the young king of the east was an old and cunning figure, and many courtiers were planted in the hands of the king of the east in this way. Now that they've been chasing for a day, they see that they've caught up with the target, so they don't chase because they don't know what the hell is going on on the other side?

"General Sun, listen to what you mean, you won't carry out the military orders, so how will we explain to the military when we go back?"

The soldiers below still don't know who the chaser is, the empress was robbed, it is still a top secret at the moment, Yang Yu doesn't want people to know that he is rebelling, and what he did is not what the empress asked him to do, but his own plot to usurp the government.

Although Sun Shaoqian didn't get any definite clues, he vaguely sensed that something was wrong. It stands to reason that the East Wangfu and the South Wangfu are the backbone of the Wei Dynasty, and now among the people opposite, there are both Xiaodong Wang himself and the county lord of the South Wangfu, how could they suddenly drag their families out of Luoyang, as if they knew that someone would chase them, and fled with their lives? Originally, the East Wangfu and the South Wangfu were still there, and the military was strong, even if the people from the East Wangfu and the South Wangfu wanted to leave Luoyang, the imperial court should not send troops to chase them, and it was an order to kill, wouldn't the imperial court be afraid of the joint rebellion of the East Wangfu and the South Wangfu?

"Send someone across the river, check if there is an ambush behind the enemy, and then make a decision!" Sun Shaoqian ordered.

The rest of the generals were relieved, indeed, send a sentinel to investigate, and it would be clear what the hell was going on on the other side. Anyway, I've already caught up, and I'm not afraid of flying on the other side. If it is found that the opposite side is indeed bluffing, then take advantage of the situation to kill the past and carry out the military order, if they know that there is an ambush on the other side, they will not send sheep into the tiger's mouth like this.

And so time dragged on. The pursuers sent a large number of sentinels to cross the river to investigate, wanting to copy through the woods and check the square shì behind the trees. But more than an hour has passed, and there are few returnees, and at this time, the generals below have some heart palpitations.

In an hour, the fast horse can detect ten miles back and forth. The woods in front of him are obviously not so large, and the sentinel has basically not returned, which means that there is an ambush around the woods on the opposite side. Looking at the entire camp in the East Wangfu and the South Wangfu on the other side of the river, it is not an empty camp, even if it can allocate manpower, it is not easy to transfer two or three hundred people at most. Within a radius of ten miles, two or three hundred people can ambush so many scouts?

There is only one explanation, that is, the East Wangfu and the South Wangfu did have reinforcements.

When the following news gradually summarized, including some scouts who escaped death, there were indeed unknown people who ambushed and killed them, these people acted decisively and came and went without a trace, they described it as a few people, and there were descriptions of hundreds of people, with different calibers.

However, there was another letter brought back by a scout, saying that someone had asked them to bring it to General Sun.

"Bring it!" Sun Shaoqian stretched out his hand and said.

The scout will be believed, Sun Shaoqian opened the letter, and his brows were deeply locked. The literal content of the letter does not make much sense, just a few words of hush and warmth, but these few sentences are different. These words were clearly said by the empress when she sent someone to visit him a few months after learning that he had been ill, and the words on the letter in front of her were clearly the empress's royal pen letters.
