After listening to Bing Yuanzhen finish talking about the situation of the envoy Sui Jun meeting Chen Yingliang, a large group of thieves and thieves in Wagangzhai couldn't help but change color on their faces, and they all gasped, especially Zhai Rang, who created this Wagangzhai with his own hands, and said in a lost voice: "Dig up the Yellow River embankment and divert the river water to flood us?" Does this really work? ”

The general Wagang generals who are generally not highly educated can't answer Zhai Rang's question, and Bing Yuan really refuses to be in public, but Wang Bodang, who took the initiative to bring the team to help, stood up behind Li Mi and said very calmly: "King Zhai, please rest assured, although this tactic is completely feasible, Chen Yingliang will never dare to use it, we don't have to worry about it." ”

"Why?" Zhai Rang hurriedly asked.

"Below the tile is the Tongji Canal, which is the lifeblood of Caoyun." Li Mi smiled and said: "Digging the Yellow River embankment to artificially change the river course can certainly trap us without spending a single soldier, but after the Yellow River floods, not only will the people downstream become fish and turtles, but the Tongji Canal will definitely be silted up and cut off, and the tyrant Yang Guang can not care about the life or death of the people, but if Chen Yingliang dares to cut off Yang Guang's lifeline, Yang Guang will definitely pick his skin." ”

"So the king can rest assured that Chen Yingliang will not dare to do this." Li Mi added with a smile: "But there is no need to thank him, this traitor's refusal to do this is not a discovery of conscience, but that he does not have the guts." ”

After listening to Li Mi's explanation, Zhai Rang and Shan Xiongxin and other Wagang generals breathed a sigh of relief, and then Zhai Rang finally discovered Li Mi's cunzài, and recalled: "You seem to be called Li Mi, right?" It seems to be some duke of the imperial court? What's the matter? I'm sorry, I can't remember it for a while. ”

"It's okay, the king can remember the student's name, and the student is already very happy." Li Mi smiled very gracefully: "Under Li Mi, the master of calligraphy, he was once named the Duke of Pushan, but after the students followed Yang Xuangan to get into trouble, this title has been deprived by the tyrant Yang Guang." ”

"King Zhai, Mr. Li Mi is still my teacher." Wang Bodang also interjected: "This time, it was determined in advance that the real purpose of the dog officer Chen Yingliang was the person in Wagangzhai, and it was also my teacher's clever plan to destroy the bridge and road to delay the speed of Chen Gouguan's march and cover your main force to retreat to Wagangzhai in advance." ”

Zhai Rang glanced at Li Mi again, and finally there was no casualness and indifference in his eyes from the previous few times, and he looked much more solemn, and then Zhai Rang arched his hand and said: "Mr. Lord, Brother Bodang, I don't thank you for your kindness, I remember this favor, and when we join forces to kill the officers and soldiers, Zhai Rang will definitely be grateful." ”

Wang Bodang and Li Mi were both polite and modest, and then Li Mi hurriedly said: "King Zhai, your words about joining forces to kill the retired officers and soldiers are too right, and now we have a plan, as long as we join hands and work together, we will definitely kill Chen Yingliang's attacking army!" And we have to send troops to fight him as much as possible, and we must not fight any idea of holding the cottage and confronting him for a long time....... ”

"Mr. Li, we have our own ideas on how to retreat from the enemy, and we don't need Mr. to worry about it." Zhai Rang interrupted Li Mi impatiently, and said very unceremoniously: "It's not early, Brother Wang and Mr. Li, you go back to rest first, and talk about it tomorrow." ”

Li Mi shut up, knowing that Zhai Rang still didn't trust and value him, but he had no choice but to join forces with Wang Bodang to say goodbye and leave the meeting hall of the Wagang Army. On the way back to his residence, Wang Bodang asked curiously why Li Mi had built a deep ditch and sent troops to fight a decisive battle, and Li Mi replied: "The grain and grass supply of the Wagang army all depends on looting and looting the grain supply, and the grain and grass savings in the village must not be very much, which must be expected by Chen Yingliang's traitor, with the character of this traitor, he must also choose a deep ditch and high base to confront the Wagang army, and when the Wagang army runs out of grain and grass, the Wagang village will naturally be self-defeating, and the Wagang army will also be flustered because of the lack of grain and grass. Chen Yingliang would be much easier to defeat Wagang again. Therefore, this battle cannot be delayed, and can only be resolved quickly. ”

"But can the Wagang Army beat Chen Yingliang?" Wang Bodang said worriedly.

"Under normal circumstances, the Wagang Army is indeed not sure to defeat Chen Yingliang's thief." Li Mi replied with a smile: "Don't look at the Wagang Army, which has been an army for many years, wandering through the counties to nourish the war, and has experienced a lot of elite teams, and in terms of strength, it has a fight with Chen Yingliang's thief." But when it comes to the battlefield, the Wagang Army is definitely not the opponent of Chen Yingliang's thief, because Zhai Rang, Xu Shiyun and Bing Yuanzhen are not as cunning as Chen Yingliang's thief combined. ”

"Then you still persuaded Zhai Rang to send troops to fight Chen Yingliang?" Uncle Wang was shocked.

"Because I'm here." Li Mi smiled and said proudly: "So far, there is only one person on the battlefield who can deceive Chen Yingliang's thief, and that person is me, as long as Zhai Rang obeys my words and adopts my tactics and strategies to fight, plus the strength of the Wagang army is enough, it is easy to break Chen Yingliang's thief." ”

Wang Bodang, who admired Li Mi from the bottom of his heart, nodded again and again, believing in Li Mi's self-confidence and ability, and then said: "The teacher's strategy and strategy are unmatched, and the students know this very well, but Zhai made him obviously disbelieve you, and he didn't even let you participate in the military intelligence meeting, how could he make Zhai Rang obey you?" ”

"It's okay." Li Mi said calmly: "I can wait, and I will also try my best to let Zhai Rang know that I am capable and give me a heavy responsibility." ”

At the same time, the high-level of the Wagang Army also quickly decided on a strategy to defend against the enemy, and discussed a strategy that would definitely make Chen Yingliang smile and crooked his mouth - stick to the cottage, try to lure Chen Yingliang to attack, and use the dangerous location to resist Chen Fuliang, who is now notorious. At the same time, Zhai Rang, Xu Shichang and others also took into account the problem of cottage grain and grass, and the countermeasure was to use the complex terrain around Wagangzhai to wait for an opportunity to harass Chen Yingliang's grain road, so that Chen Yingliang could not supply grain and grass, and naturally retreated after Chen Yingliang's grain and grass were exhausted.

In addition, Zhai Rang, Shan Xiongxin and others also decided to conduct a big investigation in the cottage to investigate and find the official and military traitors who stole the appearance of the people in Wagang, and prepared to find out and cut them down with a knife to prevent accidents.

After deciding on the strategy of resisting the enemy, of course, the generals of the Wagang Army went back to their residences to rest, Shan Xiongxin and Xu Shiyun and Bing Yuanzhen came together, and it was also at this time that Bing Yuanzhen suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly smiled at Xu Shixian: "Brother Xu, there is something I almost forgot, when I saw Chen Yingliang and Chen Dog Officer today, that dog official also asked me to thank you, saying that it was the grace of Tongjiqu back then, and he has not forgotten it until now." ”

It's good that Bing Yuan really didn't mention it, and when he mentioned this incident that made Xu Shiyun regret it for the rest of his life, Xu Shiyun immediately turned red with anger, clenched his fists and roared, "That shameless dog thief, I will kill him one day sooner or later!" Chop off his treacherous dog's head to make a night pot, and be ashamed of my shame! ”

Shan Xiongxin and Bing Yuanzhen laughed loudly, and laughed very gloatingly, but at this time, a beautiful girl in a yellow shirt suddenly came to the side, but it was Shan Xiongxin's fourteen-year-old baby sister Shan Yingying, and asked curiously: "Brother, Mr. Bing, what are you laughing at?" Also, Brother Xu, who were you scolding just now? ”

Xu Shixin, who was angry, was too lazy to pay attention to Shan Yingying, and Shan Xiongxin was embarrassed to expose Xu Shiyun's ugliness in person, but Shan Yingying was entangled, pulling Shan Xiongxin's sleeve and just asking, Shan Xiongxin, who couldn't entangle this naughty sister, was helpless, so he had to answer: "Scold Chen Yingliang that dog thief, you have also heard about your brother Xu and Chen Yingliang, the dog official who came to attack our Wagangzhai this time happened to be Chen Yingliang's traitor, and the traitor also asked Mr. Bing to thank you Brother Xu with words, of course your brother Xu will be angry and scolding." ”

As soon as Shan Yingying heard the music, she immediately laughed, and at the same time was extremely curious, and asked, "Brother Xu, what kind of person did you misplace that Chen Gouguan in the first place?" How did you deceive someone as smart as you, and deceive so badly? Also, didn't you say that he was a county magistrate, why did he bring dog officers and soldiers to beat us in a blink of an eye? ”

"You can't take care of it!" Xu Shiyun scolded angrily, but Shan Yingying did not relent, and continued to pester Xu Shiyun to inquire about Chen Yingliang's situation, Xu Shiyun was so entangled that he couldn't do it, so he had to say even more angrily: "What do you ask?" That traitor is uglier than a pig, and even uglier than that Kang Mazi in the back village, I want to vomit when I mention him, don't mention it! ”

After that, Xu Shiying, who was extremely depressed, flicked his sleeves and made Shan Xiongxin complain to his sister, condemning his sister for not being so naughty and talkative, Shan Yingying hummed unconvinced, and then couldn't wait to ask: "Brother, when will you lead the troops out of the cottage to fight Chen Gouguan?" I'll go too, I've long wanted to go to the battlefield to kill those dog officers, you didn't take me when I went out before, but this opportunity is just right, you take me there. ”

"On the side, before the sword is high, you want to go to the battlefield to kill the enemy?" Shan Xiongxin angrily pushed his sister away and scolded: "Please be like a girl, okay?" Don't be crazy all the time, you think it's a joke when you go to war? If you are accidentally caught by the officers and soldiers, see how you die! ”

Shan Yingying was still not convinced, and when she wanted to argue again, Bing Yuanzhen next to her remembered a big event, and hurriedly said to Shan Xiongxin: "General Shan, you have something to worry about, when I went to the envoy's camp today, the officers and soldiers were still camping and I couldn't observe the situation, it is estimated that the camp of the officers and soldiers will have a rough appearance tomorrow, please send a few scouts who can draw maps out of the village, walk the path to the side of the camp of the officers and soldiers, and come back with a topographic map of the camp of the officers and soldiers, and see if we have the opportunity to take the path to launch a sneak attack." ”

"Okay, no problem, I'll arrange it tomorrow morning." Shan Xiongxin agreed, but he didn't notice it at all, the naughty sister next to him had big eyes flickering, and she was thinking about the ghost idea that gave him a headache every time.

………………

As Bing Yuanzhen expected, the Sui army camp that built fortifications overnight had a rough prototype on the morning of the next day, erected a fence and dug a trench to protect the camp, but Chen Yingliang, who planned to delay time here, was still not satisfied, and personally led the construction site to supervise the construction, and asked to dig at least three trenches to protect the camp, and at the same time required to build a temporary fortress on the surrounding highlands, and stationed soldiers to observe the ground condescendingly to prevent the Wagang army from taking a small road to sneak attack.

The long-term confrontation with the Wagang Army, what worries Chen Yingliang the most is the intricate roads around Wagang Village, the flood of the Yellow River when it flooded the land in this area to pieces, forming countless hills and ravines, the complexity of the road is definitely comparable to the Yimeng Mountain Area of Langya County, which gave Chen Yingliang a headache before. For the sake of prudence, Chen Yingliang had to take the time to inspect the surrounding area of the camp again, thinking about whether he could completely block the path with traps and barricades and other things, so as not to give the Wagang army a chance to sneak attack by taking the small road.

Leading a group of people around the camp for most of the circle, Chen Yingliang probably had a bottom in his heart, and found that although the terrain in this area was indeed extremely complicated, the soil was soft and there were not many stones, which was very conducive to digging traps and building earthen walls, blocking the path and not giving the enemy a chance to sneak attack. Secretly relieved, Chen Yingliang stared at the high ground northeast of the self-army camp again, and found that on that dirt hill, he could overlook the whole situation of the self-army camp, and at the same time, there was a lot of grass and trees on the mountain, which was very conducive to hiding, Chen Yingliang immediately turned to Yuan Tiangang, who was in charge of the construction of the camp, pointed to the dirt mountain and said: "Mr. Yuan, that mountain should also arrange soldiers to be stationed, and also, destroy all the grass and trees on the mountain, don't give the enemy a chance to peep into our camp." ”

Yuan Tiangang agreed and looked in the direction, but immediately exclaimed: "There are people on the mountain!" There seems to be someone on that mountain! ”

Chen Yingliang was startled and hurriedly raised his head, but he didn't see a figure, only saw the grass and trees on the mountain shaking, and he didn't know whether it was blown by the mountain wind or someone hiding, Yuan Tiangang hurriedly said: "Deputy envoy, there must be someone on the mountain, I just saw someone poking his head out of the grass just now, and then immediately retracted back." ”

Chen Yingliang did not hesitate, and immediately said to the three dogs next to him, the three dogs understood, and immediately led some soldiers to rush to the dirt mountain, several soldiers climbed up the mountain to search, and the other soldiers divided into two ways, one left and one right to the back of the mountain to outflank - Chen Yingliang's soldiers were hiding from the enemy on the battlefield for three days, and playing the game of scratching the tongue was of course too familiar to be familiar.

"Stop, don't run!" Soon the shouts of the Sui soldiers were heard on the mountain, proving that Yuan Tiangang was not wrong just now, Chen Yingliang smiled, simply dismounted and rested on the spot, while moving his legs and feet, while waiting for the accomplice lackeys to catch the captives and interrogate them on the spot - the terrain in this area of Wagangzhai is too complicated, the Sui army scouts dare not go too deep into it, and they have not caught a prisoner yet, and finally grabbed a tongue, Chen Yingliang of course has some attention.

The accomplice lackey who grabbed his tongue did not disappoint Chen Yingliang, and soon there was a noisy shout behind the mountain, and then what surprised Chen Yingliang was that the shouting was mixed with a crisp and sharp girl's voice, Chen Yingliang couldn't help but wonder in his heart, and said secretly: "Female scout? The Wagang Army is so popular with the people, even little girls can help them be scouts? ”

Sure enough, it was a girl, and after a while, the three dogs led the soldiers to bring a cloth girl who was copied with her arms back, the girl was still limping when she walked, and it seemed that her feet were injured, and the three dogs also walked up quickly to invite merit, nodded and said: "Deputy envoy, this little girl is really difficult to catch, her movements are more flexible than that of a monkey, if she hadn't accidentally broken her foot, we might have to let her run." ”

Chen Yingliang nodded in approval, and then took a closer look at the girl who was limping away, Chen Yingliang's triangular eyes suddenly lit up a little, it turned out that although this girl was dressed in cloth and was only fourteen or fifteen years old, she was born with beautiful facial features and white skin, and she was a rare beauty embryo - Chen Fuliang also estimated in his heart that if he could be more mournful and raise this little girl by his side, it would not be long before he could accommodate a beautiful concubine who was never under the rain and snow Ji.

There is potential to have potential, the girl's pungent energy also opened Chen Yingliang's eyes, in the case of her hands being copied back, the girl still struggled and shouted, and kicked the Sui soldiers with her feet several times, which made the Sui soldiers who held her hand angry, and shouted: "Stinky girl, if you dare to kick Lao Tzu again, Lao Tzu will immediately strip you of your clothes, do you believe it or not?" ”

Of course, the girl was taken aback by such a threat, and Chen Yingliang smiled and said: "Don't scare her, bring her over, little sister, don't be afraid, they are just scaring you, as long as you are obedient, I won't let them mess with you." ”

The girl was escorted to Chen Yingliang, and looked at Chen Yingliang very carefully, her eyes were full of vigilance, and Chen Yingliang asked with a smile, "What's your name?" What were you doing hiding in the mountains just now? ”

The girl didn't answer, her expression was quite stubborn, Chen Yingliang was not angry, she just felt that her little face was white and tender and very cute, as if she could get out of the water with a pinch, so she couldn't help but reach out and touch her cheeks, who knew that the girl actually opened her mouth and came to bite Chen Fuliang's claws, Chen Yingliang was startled and quickly withdrew his hand, and the girl screamed: "Don't touch me!" Stinky thief! ”

"If I'm a thief, you'll be miserable." Chen Yingliang smiled: "Tell me quickly, what's your name?" What were you doing on the dirt hill just now? I'll let you go, if you don't say it, don't think about leaving today. ”

The girl raised her head again, gritted her teeth and refused to speak, Chen Yingliang was embarrassed to torture such a little girl, so he had to carefully observe her clothing and temperament, so as to judge her identity, and then Chen Yingliang soon found that there were some ink stains on the corners of her clothes, and noticed some irregular protrusions on her small breasts, so he suddenly stretched out his hand, quickly probed into her clothes, touched it and pulled it out, and sure enough, he pulled out a white cloth with ink, and at the same time frightened the girl to the point that her face turned white, and screamed: "Adulterous thief!" What are you doing? What are you doing?! ”

Chen Yingliang didn't bother to pay attention to her, unfolded it, and was surprised to find that the canvas was painted with the approximate wheel of his own camp, and he also drew the road in the camp of the self-army very carefully, and marked the number of military tents of the self-army with ink dots. Seeing this scene, Yuan Tiangang next to him couldn't help but be surprised and said, "Is it really a little spy?" The Wagang thief is mad and uses such a young girl as a scout? ”

"Little girl, I can't let you go now if I want to." Chen Yingliang showed the white cloth to the girl quite helplessly, and said with a wry smile: "Originally, I still wanted you to leave, you secretly drew our camp map, you are already a de facto Wagang thief scout, I can only take you back to the camp for interrogation, if you are smart and cooperative, I will still release you, if you don't honestly explain your identity and origin, I will have to torture you." ”

After saying that, Chen Yingliang waved his hand and shouted: "Tie her up and escort her back, but don't hurt her." ”

The shrill girl's screams soon echoed in the mountains and forests, but unfortunately the girl couldn't stop Chen Yingliang's accomplice lackeys no matter how much she struggled and resisted, and she was soon tied up like a small rice dumpling, and the girl was ashamed and afraid, and shouted: "Lewd thief!" Let go of me, let go of me! I'm just an ordinary folk girl passing by, why are you arresting me? Why arrest me? ”

"Ordinary folk girls?" Chen Yingliang smiled and said: "Not to mention the evidence of your crime of stealing the painting of our army's camp, although you are wearing simple cloth clothes, the small deerskin shoes on your feet are something that an ordinary folk girl can afford?" Also, I tried it myself just now, your underwear is still silk, can an ordinary woman afford a silk underwear? ”

"Whore! You whore! Shameless! Dirty! The girl's face flushed with shame.

"Don't make a mistake, I didn't mean to scare you, you chose the wrong location for the map." Chen Yingliang shrugged his shoulders helplessly, and said: "If I guess correctly, you should be the relative of the Wagang thief, and you must be the relative of a high-status Wagang thief, otherwise you can't afford to wear such clothes." Say, What is your name? ”

"What's your name?" The girl asked viciously.

"I ......." Chen Yingliang changed his words and said, "My name is Mulan, and my name is Ziying." ”

Yuan Tiangang, Sangouzi and others all looked at Chen Yingliang in surprise, not understanding why Chen Yingliang wanted to use the banner of Hua Mulan to do obscene things that hurt heaven and reason, Chen Yingliang smiled and remained silent, and said secretly in his heart: "There are too many talents in Wagang Village, we can't leave them with too bad an impression, this little girl must be very promising, it is better to temporarily assume Mulan's name, and in the future, Mulan's identity will be exposed, and there is no need to worry about damaging the reputation of this little girl." ”

"Run!" The girl suddenly screamed, "Go back and tell my brother that I was caught by Mulan, tell him to come and save me!" Remember, it's Mulan! Mulan! Mulan's word Ziying! He's a whore, and I'm dangerous! ”

The girl's screams echoed in the mountains and forests, and Chen Yingliang was dumbfounded, knowing that this girl must have a companion who had slipped through the net, he suddenly became scared in his heart, "Mulan knows about this, will she cut me into twenty pieces?!" ”

What made Chen Yingliang even more dumbfounded was still behind, and it happened that at this moment, a herald suddenly rushed to Chen Yingliang's face, and the chief said loudly: "Deputy envoy, Ambassador Zhang Xutuo Zhang sent an envoy to contact our army, saying that his army can arrive outside Wagangzhai today to meet our army, please prepare for our army!" Wei Facao asks you to go back immediately and discuss the joint venture plan! ”

"Huh?!" Chen Yingliang was dumbfounded, and before he could think about why Zhang Xutuo's team suddenly appeared, he blurted out: "You really came to cut me?!" ”
