Chapter Seventy-Eight: The Poison Scheme

(There are a lot of people who reward and evaluate, I see a little blindfolded, and my cold brain is not good, so I won't name them one by one, and I am here to thank you infinitely, and I apologize for the endless melancholy of the empire, I typed your name wrong yesterday, sorry.) I had a fever last night, and I was really uncomfortable, so I'll be back to normal tomorrow for updates)

*****************

The wheel of history is always rolling, even if the people who should know are thousands of miles apart, they will meet by chance, and the people who should not be known, even if they hit their butts on the street every day, they just scold each other with big eyes and a "stupid hat", and then they go their separate ways, each going their own way, understated, not taking away a cloud.

Yuan Shang and Guo Jia, these two people who are destined to be involved in countless times, met today under pseudonyms in this small Licheng, a short meeting, a short acquaintance, a short acquaintance, they don't even know each other's names, but the rogue temperament they are born with makes them remember each other deeply.

The disasters in Licheng have brought them together, although today is only a small moment, but from then on can only involve many miscellaneous matters in the future.

************

Qingzhou, Yuan Tan's mansion.

"The eldest prince, according to the instructions of the eldest prince, the last general will widely spread the matter of the third prince's desire to return to the army through Qingzhou in the western border of Qingzhou, if the last general expected, the Montenegrin army must have received the news at this time, but whether it will move, please forgive the last general for not speculating."

Yuan Tan sat on the main seat, took a sip of tea, nodded and said: "Wang Zhao, you have done a good job in this matter, if you come to Japan to succeed in the great cause, you will definitely remember your first merit." ”

"Thank you for your kindness! In the end, he will be loyal to the eldest prince in this life, even if there are thousands of deaths, he will not hesitate to do so. ”

Yuan Tan nodded indifferently, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, although he did not speak, there was no lack of satisfaction and smugness in his eyes.

Wang Zhao hesitated for a moment, and finally spoke again: "It's just that the eldest prince, for this plan to kill people with a knife, the last general still has a little doubt after all, although there is no shortage of capable people under Zhang Yan's command, but in recent years, he has repeatedly been defeated by our army, and his strength is not as good as before, especially after the death of Gongsun Zhan, the army of Montenegro has almost disappeared in our Hebei, even if there are some remnants, it is not enough to forgive, and according to the report of our army's spies, the thieves stationed in Qingxi this time are quite scattered, and there are less than a thousand, and the last general is a little worried, just rely on them, Can you really stop the third son's return to the division? ”

Yuan Tan took a sip of tea gently, a cold smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he shook his head and said: "Wang Zhao, you are a lieutenant general in our army, but this vision is not deep enough, and you are too superficial to look at things. ”

Hearing this, Wang Zhao hurriedly lowered his head: "Please also ask the eldest prince for advice." ”

"Don't say anything else, but it's Zhang Yan, you just underestimate this person! On the surface, the Montenegrin army at this time is indeed not a climate, but this is just a superficial illusion, Zhang Yan's ability is not small, think that year, he and Boling Zhang Niujiao raised troops in Montenegro, and there are dozens of troops under his command, the momentum is huge, comparable to the state and county soldiers and horses, among which there are many people who can recruit good fighters, gathered in Taihang, invincible, far and near, few people dare to provoke, although they were broken by my father and Lu Bu, and then followed Gongsun in defeat, but the strength is still there. ”

Wang Zhao was stunned when he heard this: "How do you say this?" ”

Yuan Tan snorted: "Today's Black Mountain thieves are hidden on the surface, leaving no traces, but in fact it is just Zhang Yan's strategy to turn one into a number, just because the general trend of Hebei is determined, and the four states are under the control of the Yuan family, it is difficult to survive, so he will scatter the soldiers and horses in all directions, or lurk in the mountains, or wander in Taihang, each share is more than nearly 10,000, less than thousands, it seems not to be tight, but it is very numerous, as I expected, if these miscellaneous thieves can get Zhang Yan's order to gather, its momentum will definitely be good!" But among them, there are nearly 100,000 hardcoverers! Don't underestimate it! ”…,

Wang Zhao broke out in a cold sweat when he heard this, and said: "The lord has repeatedly raised people to kill the Black Mountain Army in Jizhou in recent years, although he has not achieved great success, but he has also eliminated a lot, why would there be such a force under Zhang Yan's command?" ”

Yuan Tan sighed and said: "Not to mention the land of the three states, the Taihang Mountains alone are thousands of miles wide, and there are no less than dozens of hidden Black Mountain thieves, how can they be wiped out so lightly?" What's more, my father has always regarded the heroes of the world as the great enemy, although he tried his best to suppress the Montenegrin Army on the surface, but in fact he did not work very hard, not to mention that Zhang Yan is a handsome person, not to be compared, and it is not an overnight thing to get rid of them. ”

"Then, according to Gongzi's opinion, if the Black Mountain Army wants to stop the third prince this time, how many soldiers and horses can be gathered in a short period of time?"

Yuan Tan thought about it carefully and said, "If you don't say anything, there must be more than 10,000!" ”

Wang Zhao's face changed instantly.

Yuan Tan was stunned, and continued: "Wang Zhao, you quickly go and order the counties of Qingzhou, if the black mountain thieves gather people to use troops, let them guard the city, no need to stop them, let them go as they please, even if they walk under the noses of the county guards, as long as they don't come to invade my Qingzhou city, you don't have to pay attention to him, this is a military order, if you violate this son's order, you will be dealt with according to military law, and there will be no forgiveness!" ”

Wang Zhao woke up when he heard this, and knew that Yuan Tan was paving the way for the Black Mountain Army to block Yuan Shang, and said busily: "Eldest prince, isn't it a little too obvious to act like this, the lord's side?"

"It doesn't matter! You just have to act according to the order, and if you have any responsibility, this son deserves it alone! ”

"No!"

Yuan Tan raised his head and looked at the empty side hall in the distance, a ruthless smile unconsciously rose on the corner of his mouth, and said slowly: "The black mountain thief and Yuan Shang, the two intersect and merge, just like a tiger fighting a group of wolves, whether they are wolves eating tigers or tigers eating wolves, hum, whoever eats it counts!" ”

Wang Zhao: ""

************

On the edge of the water, in Yuan Shang's tent.

"I'm fucking cheated!"

After returning from Licheng, Yuan Shang held his head, and the sound of humiliation and choking filled the camp.

Deng Chang looked at Yuan Shang proudly, his old face full of folds without the slightest sympathy.

"Let's just say that you do too much of the things you don't want to do on weekdays, how about it? Retribution, isn't it? Deng Chang grinned, with a gloating face.

Yuan Shang glanced at him dissatisfiedly: "You are also my lord, the so-called king worries about the ministers, the lord humiliates the ministers to death, I was slammed, you don't commit suicide and apologize to the world is already very inauthentic, why do you still tease me?" I've been aggrieved, what good is it for you, believe it or not, I cut off your head and sacrifice the flag. ”

Deng Chang's face tightened, and he hurriedly said: "You have been pitted and you want me to apologize to the world?" It's a nest! Old man, I recruited you to provoke you, in fact, I just want to give you a reminder, don't forget to lead the old man if there are fun things in the future, the so-called old horse knows the way, with me by your side, you can take a lot less wrongful road. ”

Yuan Shang sighed when he heard this, and said, "You say that I am now packing up my troops and horses and leading my troops to slaughter Licheng, is it considered an impulse that is not calm?" ”

On the left side of the tent, Gao Ran was startled when he heard this, wiped his sweat and said, "Childe, how much have you been wronged, are you so angry that you want to slaughter the city?" ”

Yuan Shang's face was a little dazed: "Actually, everything is just because of a chicken"

Deng Chang couldn't help but grow his mouth when he heard this: "You were pitted by a chicken?" ”

"It's me who gets a chicken trapped"

Everyone couldn't help but be surprised, you looked at me, I looked at you, and then couldn't help but sigh secretly, the wealthy family who grew up with a golden soup spoon just can't afford it, all of them are so pampered, a chicken's grievances can't stand it, and the future of Hebei Sizhou is really bleak and gloomy. …,

Zhang Jaw smiled helplessly, and changed the topic: "Childe, during the time you went to Licheng for an unannounced visit, the last general has already completed the matter of crossing the water, just wait for tonight, the army can travel at night, and then I will arrive at the boundary of Qingzhou, and I will no longer have to be as frightened day and night as now." ”

Yuan Shang nodded when he heard this, and said, "Is there any news on my eldest brother's side?" ”

Hearing this, Zhang Jaw said: "The messenger of Qingzhou has arrived during the day, and the eldest prince of Yan is very happy when he hears that the prince wants to go to Qingzhou, and he has already dispatched soldiers and horses to be stationed outside Linzi City, just waiting for the prince to enter, he will come to greet him immediately!" ”

Yuan Shang nodded when he heard this, pondered carefully for a while, and said: "General Zhang, after crossing the river into Qingzhou tonight, you will divide all the soldiers and horses into three teams, one for the false banner of my name and continue to pull out to Linzi, and the other two are real, hidden around the virtual soldiers, beware of others coming to sneak attack, but anyone who dares to harass our army, all of them will be killed before returning to Yecheng, we must fight with 120,000 points of spirit, and there is no moment of relaxation, you all remember to remember!" ”

Everyone couldn't help but be shocked when they heard this.

Deng Chang looked at Yuan Shang in surprise, and the hand that touched his chin almost didn't pull off half of his beard.

"Third son, isn't your reaction a little too slow. In the Central Plains, when you were in the enemy's backyard, you were not so vigilant, but now that you have returned to the territory of your old Yuan family, you are so vigilant, you shouldn't be a chicken and a demon barrier, right? What is good about you, just lose the chicken, not the wife, not the shame! ”

Yuan Shang snorted, a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and said: "The open gun is easy to dodge and the dark arrow is difficult to defend, the knife and gun in the front can be blocked, but the dagger in the dark is unguardable, the enemy in the open place is not terrible, I am afraid of the enemy you don't care about or don't know the way, there are some things I don't want to say to you, but be careful, it's still good after all." ”
