It was night, under the city of Changshe, it was the third watch at this time, it was dark outside the east gate, only the faint light on the city wall could be a little warm, Chen Zhi and Mi Qian escorted Xu Ji and quietly touched the east gate of Changshe, Chen Zhi was extremely opposed to Xu Ji's personal venture into the city, but he had no way to stop it, so he simply protected Xu Ji himself, although Chen Zhi knew that he could not follow Xu Ji into the city, but at least guaranteed that he would not be encountered by the Yellow Turban soldiers.

Just after the halfway point of the third watch, a hanging basket was put down on the city tower, Xu Ji motioned Chen Zhi to go back, Chen Zhi shook his head, and said in a low voice: "The lord will not return for a moment, and Uncle Zhi will wait under the city." Xu Ji smiled helplessly, and said: "It's up to you, but it's not so fast, you can't be without a person in charge in the army, since you want to stay and wait for me, Mi Qian, you go back to appease the soldiers, I don't return to you for a day, you are not allowed to move lightly, if I don't return for three days, you will move, and you can't do anything to lead your troops back to Yingchuan, Guo Fengxiao will arrange the next thing." Mi Qian promised.

Seeing Mi Qian promise Xu Ji turned his head and walked into the hanging basket, stretched out his hand and pulled the rope of the hanging basket, the hanging basket was slowly hoisted, after seeing Xu Ji safely ascend the city tower, Chen Zhi turned around and said to Mi Qian: "You go back first, what the Lord ordered, you remember, if the Lord really can't come back after three days, you don't have to wait for me, Chen Zhi's life was given by the Lord's teacher, and now he can't protect the Lord Zhou Quanzi to avenge it." ”

Mi Qian said with a solemn expression: "General, Mi Qian doesn't read much, but he also knows that death is severe, the lord must not want the general to be like this, general, the army can't be without a master for a day, Mi Qian is only sparse and shallow, and the general needs to be in charge." ”

Chen Zhi said with a smile: "Although you are not an old man who follows the Lord, but since Mr. Mi ordered you to follow the Lord, you have worked hard and done your best, and I know that you are not a retainer of the Lord after all, Mi Qian, I don't force you, just you follow the instructions of the Lord." ”

Mi Qian smiled when he heard this: "Uncle Zhi, I am one year older than you, I have been a retainer of the Mi family for six years, and I have been a retainer of the lord since I was ordered to leave the Mi family, no matter what others say, Mi Qian is no longer a retainer of the Mi family, but a retainer of the Xu family, and the lord also knows, otherwise how could the lord hand over the head of a battalion to me?" Uncle Zhi, Mi Qian is not a person who does not know things, if the Lord has a case, we should naturally risk our lives to avenge the Lord, but it is by no means a senseless death, Mr. Fengxiao will plan for us. Uncle Zhi, it doesn't matter if you can listen to it, or if you can't listen to it, Mi Qian said this. “

Chen Zhi smiled at dusk: "Mi Qian, how can I not know the master's knowledge of people?" Chen Zhi is just talking at each other, you have to be in charge of the camp, how can you distinguish the truth from the false and seize the opportunity if you are not careful? You go, if something happens, how can you lose your life in vain, of course, you must leave a useful body to hate the Lord. ”

After hearing this, Mi Qian smiled and scolded: "Uncle Zhiduan is not a good person, okay, I will go back, if you and the Lord do not return to me tomorrow morning, you will send someone to ask Mr. Fengxiao for advice, you can rest assured." ”

Chen Zhi also smiled and said: "Get out, you coarse person wants to learn from Mr. Fengxiao's chewing words and pinching tones, and it is not right." ”

Mi Qian didn't say more, and quickly took a few steps to hide in the night, while Chen Zhi found a hidden corner to hide.

And Xu Ji in the city also quickly met Zhu Jun and Huangfu Song, both of whom were generals in the prime of life, with a strong military style in words and deeds, tough and decisive.

The first time they saw Xu Ji, the two frowned, the Xu Ji in front of them was too young, even young, Zhu Jun and Huangfu Song could hardly believe that such a person who was still a child could have a plan to break the siege of the Yellow Turban Army, but since he volunteered to come alone, it was better to listen to it politely, this is their psychology.

Xu Ji saluted first: "I have seen two generals, I am Xu Ji, thank you for the two generals who led their troops to rescue Yingchuan." ”

Zhu Jun replied with a smile: "I can't say thank you, we also came by edict, and now that we are trapped in the Changshe, we can't talk about rescue." ”

Huangfu Song on the side obviously didn't like this kind of politeness: "During the day, you came with news that you have a strategy to break the enemy, in this case, don't waste time, let's talk about it." ”

Zhu Jun also said: "General Yizhen is a little impatient, don't go to your heart." Xu Ji, do you have words? ”

Xu Ji arched his hand and said: "In the next word, General Huangfu is just a model for my generation, how dare Xu Ji offend, there is indeed a strategy to break the enemy, but it is quite risky." ”

Huangfu Song was in a good mood when he was praised by the sentence "My generation is a model", and he replied with a little appreciation: "Risky? Let's talk about it, Wen Lie, the old man is not dissatisfied with you, but now that the Changshe is indeed unsustainable, no matter how risky it is, I have to try it. ”

Xu Ji walked to the edge of the map on the table, pointed to the Changshe and said: "The Changshe has always been prone to wind in May, after the autumn harvest last year, it was not cultivated, and the weeds were overgrown. ”

Zhu Jun and Huangfu Song frowned when they heard this, this plan is indeed a good plan, but it is indeed extremely risky, as long as the Yellow Turban Battalion does not mutiny, then the elite of arson will go and have no return, if Xu Ji is simply Bocai's strategy, then wouldn't the elite in the city be in the middle of Bocai's hands?

Of course, Xu Ji understood the concerns of the two, and then said again: "The arson can be left to my subordinates, and the two generals only need to send the elite to ambush on the side of the Yellow Turban Battalion, and it is not too late to attack again once the Yellow Turban Battalion mutinies, and if the Yellow Turban Battalion mutiny is not born, it can be withdrawn." ”

After Xu Ji finished speaking, Zhu Jun opened his mouth and asked: "Why is Wen Lie confident that the Yellow Turban will inevitably mutiny?" ”

Xu Ji said angrily: "My subordinate soldiers have attacked Bocai Grain Road many times, and naturally know that the Yellow Turban under Bocai is already exhausted, not to mention that most of the Yellow Turbans are people who have put down their farming tools, and people are determined, who wants to fight?" ”

Zhu Jun and Huangfu Song were also silent, yes, if the world is stable, who wants to fight?

Huangfu Song lifted his spirit and said: "If you follow this strategy, when will you do it?" ”

Xu Ji said with a smile: "Manpower is sometimes exhausted, now you only need to prepare the things that cause fire and wait for the day, when the wind rises, it is the day of action, that is, the day of the Yellow Turban's defeat." Zhu Jun also smiled: "Then act according to Wen Lie's plan, Wen Lie, what else do you need?" ”

Xu Ji arched his hand and said: "The thing that ignites the fire is not easy to find outside the city, so it will trouble the two generals to prepare, when the wind rises, I will order my subordinates to summon the two generals, and then I hope that the two generals will send three hundred elites out of the city, I will order my subordinates to lead the way, and I will make my subordinates shrink in the next few days, and wait for the wind to rise." “

Zhu Jun listened and said, "It's okay, Wen Lie, do you still want to go out of the city?" ”

Xu Ji glanced at the horizon that was gradually flooding with fish belly: "There are still three hundred soldiers waiting for me, the general loves soldiers like children, and he must be able to understand what Ji thinks in his heart." ”

Huangfu Song smiled: "Although Wen Lie is a literati, do you know soldiers? ”

Xu Ji saluted and said: "I don't dare to say that I know the soldiers, but since I am willing to follow Xu Ji to take risks, that is, my comrades and siblings who have their lives delivered, Xu Ji is not talented, how can he let his siblings be left alone?" ”

Zhu Jun also replied: "Okay, I'll send you back." ”

After sending Xu Ji away, Zhu Jun looked at Huangfu Song and said, "Yizhen also thinks this plan is feasible?" Is it too risky? ”

Huangfu Song said excitedly: "Gongwei, Wen Lie's plan is exactly what I once thought, but I don't know the geography and solar terms of the Changshe, and now Wen Lie is God bless my big man, and hundreds of people under Wen Lie's command are the head snakes who are familiar with the Changshe, and Bocai will definitely be defeated." ”

Zhu Jun frowned and said, "How can you be sure that this person is not a fine worker?" I always felt that something was wrong. ”

Huangfu Song said with a smile: "Although it is a bit unfair to Wen Lie to say this, but the ignition and mutiny are carried out by Wen Lie's subordinates, even if the defeat and us are nothing more than the loss of three hundred soldiers, the day the city is broken, there will only be more casualties, there is not much food and herbs in the city, it is time to give it a go." ”

Zhu Jun sighed: "This statement is not unreasonable, so let's believe it once, I just hope that God will bless my big man." ”

At this time in Luoyang, Emperor Ling in the palace sat alone in the empty hall, looking at the sky of Luoyang, Emperor Ling sighed: "It is Liu Hong who is incompetent, and he has corrupted my Han Dynasty for 400 years to this point. After that, he looked at the jade seal on the shore with an indescribable loneliness.

At this moment, Xu Ji had been put outside the city by the hanging basket, and Chen Zhi immediately caught up with Xu Ji: "Lord, what do the two generals say?" ”

Xu Ji came out of the hanging basket and said with a smile: "Great achievements, now it only takes time to facilitate me, and the yellow scarf can be broken soon." ”

Chen Zhi was stunned and said, "The two generals believe this? I thought that the Lord would have to go through a lot of words, but I didn't think that it would be done in just an hour, but how did the Lord do it? ”

Xu Ji said with a smile as he walked: "The two generals are already the most reluctant to give it a go, the grain and grass in the city have run out, this is the key to why I can succeed so easily, as long as I make the most correct decision at the most critical time, I can often get twice the result with half the effort." What's more, this operation is ahead of us, and even if they don't trust me, they won't have anything to lose, which is why I dared to go alone to convince the two generals. To be honest, I may not be at ease if they go. ”

Xu Ji glanced back at the Changshe under the dim morning light, turned his head and continued to say to Chen Zhi: "How much credit I can get in this battle depends on how many results you and your subordinates have achieved, Uncle Zhi." ”

Chen Zhi replied in a high-spirited manner: "The Lord doesn't have to worry, if you rush to the camp head-on, you don't dare to say that you will win with 300 people, but if you attack the camp and set it on fire, it will not be enough for Shu Zhi." ”

Xu Ji laughed again: "Uncle Zhi's arrogance is admirable, but it's not just three hundred, I asked the two generals for three hundred, so, Uncle Zhi, you have six hundred strong men in your hands." ”

Chen Zhi's face was happy, that general didn't like how many soldiers he had? The so-called Han Xin's soldiers, the more the merrier.

And it is obvious that Xu Ji is obviously not ready to return the three hundred soldiers he got from Zhu Jun and Huangfu Song to them, Chen Zhi obviously reciprocated with the same idea, and the master and servant laughed at each other, obviously knowing each other's thoughts. I will charge forward for you, I must make up for it, Xu Ji's thoughts are very simple but extremely shameless.

However, Bocai, who was far away in the camp, became more and more uneasy, and he never found the source of his uneasiness, and soon, he would understand.
