Chapter 503: Anyone Can Die for It
Yan Liang went to meet the enemy, Guo Jia did not engage in the battle, quickly pulled out the village and retreated, Yan Liang did not dare to pursue too fiercely, for fear that the battle line would be too long, at this time the division of troops is a taboo, although Yuan Shao has a lot of soldiers around him, but there are not many elites, morale is low, only by capturing Chengping, can he take a breath.
After a few days of manufacturing, there were already several crashes and wells used in the siege, and Yuan Shao made up his mind that even if he fought for consumption, he would pull out the nail of Chengping.
Pang Tong in the city watched the Yuan army rush to make all kinds of siege equipment, but he didn't seem worried, the longer the Yuan army prepared, the more beneficial it was to the lord's actions.
Even if Chengping is lost, it is not the end, and he can still retreat to Nanpi.
……
Chun Yuqiong, Yan Liang, Wen Chou, and Gao Ran sat in the tent, and after the herald summoned them in, they only said that Lord Xun would arrive soon, and they retreated without even boiling tea.
The four of them looked at each other, opened their mouths, and did not speak, but pressed their hands on the hilt of their swords and waited quietly.
"Tomoruo-sama."
Seeing Xun Chen walking into the tent, his steps were steady, and there was no expression on his face, and the four generals breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts.
But when Xun Chen said the first sentence, the four generals jumped in shock.
"Nanpi has fallen, and the life and death of everyone's families are uncertain!"
Looking at Xun Chen with a calm face, Chun Yuqiong calmed down, lowered his head and thought about something, but Yan Liang couldn't calm down, and when he saw Xun Chen's gesture, he had to lower his voice and say.
"Youruo, is this news true?"
"This is the news that my confidants of the Xun family risked life and death from Nanpi City, and the Zhongshan Army took advantage of the opportunity of the third prince's birthday celebration to control all the leaders in the city through the banquet."
After Ah Qian told Xun Chen the news, he did not stop, and went to Chang'an with some supplies on a single horse.
When Xun Chen heard that Xun You was in prison, his relatives and friends who wrote Chang'an wrote a few letters and handed them to Ah Yu, asking her to use the energy to rescue Xun You as soon as possible.
Now the situation of the lord is not good, although Xun Chen is worried about his nephew, he can't leave here.
Yuan Shao recovered from a serious illness and was in good spirits, but Xun Chen did not dare to tell the lord the news because of his weak body, so he invited the four generals to come and discuss.
The fewer people who know about this, the better, and once it spreads throughout the army, the morale of the army will be unstable.
Embattled, walking through the wheat city, as powerful as the overlord of Western Chu and Guan Erye, he can't stop his soldiers from fleeing, if the Yuan army is scattered, the big thing will be over!
"Youruo, is it possible that this He Hanxing will be able to act without a shadow? Why did you go to Nanpi again? ”
"He Feng is strong in martial arts, it is normal to go to Nanpi alone, Nanpi must have a traitor who helped He Feng, otherwise even if he has the power to reach the sky, it is impossible to control the entire Nanpi City."
Chun Yuqiong stroked his beard and was silent, and when he saw Xun Chen looking at him, he showed a wry smile.
"What's your plan?"
Xun Chen is not humble, time is pressing, now is not the time to be slow and polite.
"First, our army must immediately recapture Nanpi City."
"Second, the news of the fall of Nanpi should be tightly sealed, except for the five of us, and the sixth person should not be told."
"Third ......"
Before the words fell, he saw someone outside the tent coming to report, Xun Chen took a pillar of incense out of the tent and hurriedly walked back.
"Five thousand men and horses came out of Nanpi and came to Chengping with grain and grass."
The third general was a little puzzled when he heard it, but he saw Chun Yuqiong laughing.
"Youruo, there is no endless road in the sky, these five thousand men and horses have told us that there are not many enemy troops in Nanpi City."
Xun Chen's eyes flashed after hearing this, but he heard Chun Yuqiong continue: "According to Qiong's conjecture, He Feng'er did this for nothing more than two purposes, one is to transfer these five thousand men and horses away from Nanpi, which is conducive to him to stabilize the situation in the city. The second is to imagine Zhang Liang in the early Han Dynasty, come to an embattled city, and use the news of Nanpi City to shake the hearts of our army, so that they will attack together in three ways, let's ......"
Wen Chou jumped up when he heard this, "He Feng has such a poisonous heart, we didn't mess with him, but he is so ruthless and unjust, when I meet him, I will be stabbed to death." ”
Wen Chou's arms that were smashed by He Feng were basically healed, but he couldn't use all his strength yet.
Yan Liang also gritted his teeth, "Youruo, you must not let go of He Feng, Qing's father will not die, and it will be difficult." ”
"What's the general's plan?"
Xun Chen knew that among the four generals, only Chun Yuqiong had a strategy, and the other three were all generals with troops, not the commanders in front of the battle.
Chun Yuqiong walked around the tent quickly, dazzling everyone, and no one cared about these details at this time, and the whole tent was full of messy footsteps.
"Tomoruo." Chun Yuqiong finally stopped, "Nanpi City is now ungarrisoned, let's ride lightly, march quickly from the right path, target Nanpi, and attack him by surprise." ”
Xun Chen nodded approvingly, "How should the five thousand soldiers and horses be prepared for this way?" ”
Chun Yuqiong's eyes flashed with a little killing intent, "These soldiers and horses don't know how much they have been infiltrated by the Zhongshan army, if they spread the news, our army will be chaotic, so according to Qiong's meaning, it is better to ......"
Seeing that his right hand waved down fiercely and made a chopping gesture, Gao Ran's voice trembled, "These are all our soldiers and horses!" ”
"In extraordinary times, do extraordinary things."
Xun Chen expressed his support for Chun Yuqiong, spread out the map, pointed to a place and said: "In addition, it is a depression, high on all sides and low in the middle, General Yan and Wen can take their headquarters and say that they are out of the camp to find the enemy behind to fight, go here to ambush first, and when they come, they must kill this branch of men and horses." ”
Sighing, Xun Chen's voice was a little softer, "You don't have to kill too hard, in the end, it's our troops, just let them escape back to Nanpi and add some burden to He Feng, don't let them come to the camp to deliver information." ”
When the four generals heard this, they all nodded, convinced by Xun Chen's arrangement.
"General Gao Ran will take my arrows and patrol the camp from now on, and when he encounters all the people outside the camp, whether men or women, old or young, they will all be arrested, and those who do not obey the order will be killed on the spot, and all connections between the outside world and the camp must be cut off, so that the soldiers here will not get any information, so that they can only act according to our orders, just like cattle and sheep."
Looking at Chun Yuqiong, Xun Chen moved a lot slower and took out an arrow.
"There are still nearly 1,000 halberd warriors, so Chen will hand them all over to the general, and allocate another 1,000 horsemen for you, secretly march eastward, and find a way to recapture Nanpi City."
Seeing that all the generals nodded, Xun Chen slowly turned his back, but his voice was extremely firm, "If He Feng uses the hostages of the Yuan Mansion to threaten, no matter who it is, you must not be soft-hearted, the general must remember that Nanpi City is our place of survival, and anyone can die for it!" ”
Although there are not many words, but the four generals who are accustomed to seeing the sea of corpses and blood, looking at the back of the mastermind, a chill rose in his heart, only to see his back slowly turn red, and then become a sea of blood, there are countless screams and countless struggles in the sea of blood.
