Chapter 198: Smoke bombs
Longxian, Ma Teng's official residence.
A small colonel hurriedly ran into the inner hall and bowed his hand to Ma Teng: "My lord." ”
Ma Teng waved his hand and asked, "What did Lu Bu say?" ”
The junior colonel replied: "Lu Bu said that this is Luo Zheng's plan to take the blame, and it is definitely not the work of the state army. ”
A general under the hall said angrily: ", Lu Bu thinks that some and so are all fools? If this was done by Luo Zheng, then what explanation should be given to Luo Zheng to give Lu Bu 2,000 stone of military rations? This was clearly Lu Bu's doing, but he didn't dare to admit it. ”
More than half of the generals nodded their heads again and again, thinking that this was done by Lu Bu.
Ma Teng looked at Pang De, who was the head of the generals, and asked, "What does Ling Ming think?" ”
Pang De groaned and said, "It's hard to say, Lu Bu is short of food, even if he sends a small group of cavalry out to plunder, it is not surprising, but it will not be so blatant." It's just that Lu Bu once raised troops to attack Jincheng, but now Luo Zheng gave Lu Bu 2,000 stone of military rations, this matter is really intriguing, and the last general really can't understand what Luo Zheng wants to do. ”
Ma Teng frowned and said, "Then Luo Zheng wants to join forces with General Ben to attack Lu Bu, what should I do?" ”
All the generals are quite deliberate, if they can destroy Lu Bu, it is not bad to capture the northern land and settle the two counties.
Pang De was also extremely moved, but he said in a deep voice: "Luo Zheng is scheming, and the lord can't do it." This guy will be stable and let the two counties of the north be the lord, but as long as the county in the south of Wuwei is rented, how can he be so kind! ”
Ma Teng nodded and said: "What Ling Ming said is extremely true, of course Luo Zhengxiao'er will not be so kind, how can he let go of the two counties of Beidi and Anding, but only need to rent one county." It's even possible that this guy just wants to drive the tiger and devour the wolf. ”
The generals were suddenly awe-struck and thought about it carefully. It's really possible.
Some generals were puzzled: "In this case, why did Luo Zheng give Lu Bu 2,000 stone of military rations?" ”
Ma Teng snorted heavily. Said: "Luo Zhengxiao'er only said that he gave Liang the heart of An Lu Bu, so that he could attack his unpreparedness. Join forces with General Ben and attack Lu Bu with lightning speed. ”
"This ......"
All the generals were about to be dizzy, and they really couldn't figure out what Luo Zheng wanted to do.
Pang De suddenly thought of it, and changed color: "Luo Zhengxiao'er has played so many tricks, it is difficult for me to find out his true intentions, could it be that he has already secretly formed an alliance with Lu Bu and wants to raise troops to attack the lord?" ”
At this time, even Ma Teng suddenly changed color, and if you think about it carefully, there is really this possibility.
Luo Zheng is scheming. How could he be so kind?
Ma Teng was originally very suspicious, how could Luo Zheng be so kind to help him destroy Lu Bu instead of taking a city, but now after hearing Pang De say this, he immediately believed it for eight or nine points, and said categorically: "Immediately order people to pay more attention to the movements of the state army." ”
"Yes."
Some generals hurriedly got up and loudly surrendered their orders.
Pang De said again: "At present, hundreds of horse bandits are looting the area of Ayang and Chengji, how to deal with it, please decide the lord." ”
A general said loudly: "It doesn't matter if it's Lu Bu or Luo Zheng's cavalry disguised horse bandits." The lord just sent troops to exterminate all these damned horse bandits, and what else was there to discuss. ”
Ma Teng said in a deep voice: "Yes, as long as you kill this group of damn horse thieves, you will know whose people it is." ”
At the same time. Linjing, Lu Bu's official residence.
Zang Ba hurriedly ran into the inner hall and arched his hand to Lu Bu: "Lord." Something is not good! ”
Lu Bu said in a deep voice: "What's the situation? ”
Zang Ba said in a condensed voice: "According to the news from Longxian County, Luo Zheng is very likely to have formed an alliance with Ma Teng. I want to be detrimental to my lord. Moreover, Ma Teng had already ordered that the 10,000 troops stationed in Xiangwu be transferred back to Longxian. ”
"What?"
Lu Bu was taken aback. He stood up on the ground and said in disbelief: "Is there such a thing? ”
Zang Ba said: "Longxian County has our army's meticulous work, and it will not be bad." ”
Lu Bu frowned and said: "In this case, why did Luo Zheng give General Ben 2,000 stone of military rations, and also ordered him to form an alliance with General Ben to attack Dong Zhuo, what do you want to do after so many tricks?" ”
Zhang Liao, who was in the hall, suddenly said: "This is the way of the soldier's virtual reality, and the virtual reality is the most difficult to prevent." The last general thought that Luo Zheng was as cunning as a fox and scheming, and the lord must not take him lightly, and he needs to be strictly guarded against. ”
Wei Xu rolled his eyes and said: "The last general thinks that Luo Zheng gave food to the lord and formed an alliance with the lord, it is very likely that he wants to relax the lord's heart, but secretly Ma Teng joined forces to sneak attack our army, and it is necessary to guard against it." ”
Lu Bu's eyes froze, and he was suddenly awe-struck, and said, "It's really possible." ”
Zhang Liao said excitedly: "You can order the scout to pay close attention to the movements of Jincheng and Wuwei counties. If Luo Zheng and Ma Teng join forces and want to raise troops to attack the two counties of Anding and Beidi, then Luo Zheng's army must assemble in the direction of Wuwei. ”
Lu Bu said categorically: "Good, according to Wenyuan's words, I ordered the scout to pay strict attention to the movements of Luo Zheng's army. ”
"Yes."
The scout colonel hurriedly got up and went out of the ranks, and quickly responded to the order.
To the east of Ayang, in a small valley near the beginning of the mountain.
Eight hundred horse bandits lurked in a dense forest, quietly waiting for the next wave of attacks.
Although these horse bandits were in tattered clothes and armor, like a group of people called Hanako, their expressions were very strong, and they all had a murderous aura that could not be concealed, and the hideous aura formed by killing too many people could not be concealed.
Although the armor is tattered, it can still be seen that this is the armor of the Bingzhou cavalry.
On a large rock on the edge of the dense forest, Yan Xing sat on it with his elbows propped up, waiting patiently.
About half an hour later, a fast horse galloped in the distance.
The scouts rushed to the edge of the dense forest, reined in their horses, turned off their horses and bowed to the ground: "General, our scouts found a large number of Ma Teng cavalry south of Ayang, and they are killing Ayang, about 2,000 horsemen. ”
Yan Xing's eyes turned cold for a moment, and he said in a condensed voice: "Ma Teng's cavalry is coming so fast!" ”
A junior colonel asked, "General, do you want to kill Ma Teng's 2,000 cavalry first?" ”
Yan Xing was silent, these two thousand cavalry must be killed, otherwise how to continue to plant Lu Bu.
However, they had 2,000 cavalry, and they only brought 800 cavalry, which was less than half of the strength of Ma Teng's army.
If you fight hard, you definitely don't have much chance of winning, so you can only rely on sneak attacks and ambushes.
However, how to sneak attack and ambush must be carefully considered, otherwise it will not be good if it is a grass spirit snake.
Just as he was frowning and thinking about it, another whirlwind on a fast horse rushed over.
The scout soldier rushed to the front, and said excitedly: "General, our scouts have found the lord's army ten miles away. ”
"The army of lords?"
Yan Xing was stunned, and then said in surprise: "How could the lord come here and how many soldiers and horses did he bring?" ”
The scout cavalry replied, "The lord has only brought three thousand old troops, and he has come from the rent with light equipment. At present, the lord and the 3,000 army are hiding in the Boluo Valley south of Wating, and the lord has ordered the general to lead the army to go, and there is a military situation to discuss. ”
Yan Xing didn't say a word, and immediately ordered eight hundred horsemen to assemble and go to Boluo Valley.
At the beginning of the mountain, there are many deep ravines and dense forests, and soldiers can be hidden everywhere.
Boluo Valley is not far from here, less than ten miles away.
Eight hundred cavalry marched lightly, and arrived in less than a pillar of incense. As soon as I entered the valley, I saw that the dense forests on both sides rushed out for dozens of miles to block the way, these cavalry were as strong as the eight hundred cavalry led by Yan Xing, and they were all wearing the armor of the Bingzhou army.
"A certain Nai Yan Xing is also, get out of the way!"
Yan Xing hurriedly stepped forward and shouted at the dozens of cavalrymen.
These cavalrymen knew Yan Xing, and hurriedly rode back to the two dense forests.
Yan Xing ordered 800 horsemen to hide in the dense forests on both sides of the valley mouth, and only brought more than ten personal soldiers to see Luo Zheng.
After passing through a dense forest, the front was full of cheerfulness, revealing a small clearing.
On a big stone in the middle of the clearing, I saw Luo Zheng sitting on it, pondering with his eyebrows down.
Dozens of soldiers were guarding the surroundings, and they were on guard, without the slightest slackness.
Yan Xing hurriedly rolled off his horse, stepped forward quickly, bowed to the ground, and sang: "The last general will see the lord." ”
Luo Zheng waved his hand and said, "Get up!" ”
Yan Xing straightened up, stood aside, and asked confusedly, "I don't know why the lord came in person?" ”
Luo Zheng said: "Let's not talk about this first, you'll know in a while." Yan Ming has been plundering Ayang for nearly ten days, what is the movement of Ma Teng and Lu Bu, is there any movement of the army, and has the army been assembled, have you ever sent troops to encircle and suppress it? ”
Yan Xing replied, "My lord, there is no movement of Lu Bu and Ma Teng's army to assemble for the time being. However, just now, our army scouts found a Ma Teng cavalry of about 2,000 people south of Ayang, which should have come to encircle and suppress the last general. ”
"Ma Teng sent two thousand cavalry?"
Luo Zheng suddenly perked up, this is really a food delivery.
Yan Xing replied, "Exactly." ”
Luo Zheng asked again, "What about Lu Bu, this general planted a false accusation for Lu Bu, didn't Lu Bu react at all?" ”
Yan Xingdao: "For the time being, there is no news that Lu Bu has sent troops to beg for thieves. However, the scouts of our army found that the Wu clan near the opening mountain has recently strengthened its guard, and there were still 2,000 foot soldiers stationed yesterday, I don't know if they are guarding against Ma Teng? ”
"Wushi has two thousand state troops stationed?"
Luo Zheng's expression moved, and his brain spun quickly.
Yan Xing replied, "Exactly." ”
Luo Zheng was silent, what was Lu Bu doing with two thousand foot soldiers stationed in the Wu clan?
Of course, it could not have been to come to beg for thieves to prove that this horse bandit was not a state cavalry.
Otherwise, I am afraid that it will not be a foot soldier, but a cavalry of the state.
Thinking about it, there is only one possibility.
That is, Xun Yu's plan took effect, and Lu Bu began to guard against Ma Teng.
Luo Zheng thought for a while, and then said: "Go, lead Ma Teng's 2,000 cavalry to Jitouling?" ”
Yan Xing was stunned and said, "Jitouling? ”
Luo Zheng said 'um' and said, "Yes, when General Ben passed by Jitou Mountain, he found that there was a large area of dense forest at the northwest corner of Jitou Mountain, which was just right to set up an ambush. The general ambushed 3,000 cavalry there, and Yan Ming could lead Ma Teng's 2,000 cavalry there, and destroy the 2,000 cavalry first. ”
"The last will obey."
Yan Xing took the order and strode away.
Out of the Boluo Valley, he immediately gathered 800 Qianghu cavalry dressed as horse bandits and went to Ayang.
Luo Zheng also immediately ordered to gather a large army, led 3,000 old troops out of Boluo Valley, and went straight to Jitouling to the west. (To be continued......) R1292
