Chapter 55 Nanye Pacification of Hanzhongdi (4)

Nan Ye had no intention of killing Wei Yan, and at this time, Lei Tong interceded, so he intended to pardon him. But as Guo Jia said, military orders are like mountains that cannot be wasted lightly, so Nan Ye looked at Guo Jia with some embarrassment, hoping that he would have an idea.

Guo Jia saw Nan Ye's eyes and understood his meaning, so he said: "Since General Lei intercedes, Wen Chang's death crime can be avoided, but the living crime is unforgivable." You are limited to ten days to break the village, and you will be guilty. If it can't be broken, the two sins will be one, and they will not be spared. ”

Nan Ye couldn't refute when he heard that Guo Jia had set a deadline, so he could only order Wei Yan and Lei Tong to go back as soon as possible to transfer troops and send generals, work together to destroy the enemy, and not fight on their own.

Wei Yan and Lei Tong got together after coming out of the account, Wei Yan first thanked Lei Tong for his intercession, and then said to Lei Tong: "Before, we couldn't defeat the enemy without losing the soldiers and horses, and now we need to have a clever plan to break the village in ten days." Will General Ray come to my account and counsel with us? ”

Although Lei Tong was not convicted by Nan Ye in this defeat, his face was not good-looking after all, and he also wanted to win a big battle to save face, so he immediately agreed and returned to the village with Wei Yan.

The two of them gathered together and frowned, thinking for a long time. At this time, the curtain was opened, and a person walked into the tent, it was Nan Ye.

Wei Yan and Lei Tong both stood up and saluted, and then Wei Yan asked, "Why did the national teacher come to my account?" ”

Nan Ye said with a smile: "Feng Xiao's shouting and shouting in front of the generals is to strictly enforce military law, not to have a grudge against Wen Chang, and I hope Wen Chang will not blame him." He was afraid that the two of you would have no plan, so he asked me to help. You two want soldiers or generals, you can tell me, whether it is the camp or the vine armor army, you two will be at your disposal, and you two will capture the enemy camp within ten days. ”

Wei Yan did have some resentment in his heart for Guo Jia's ruthlessness, but when he heard Nan Ye say it at this time, the resentment in his heart disappeared, and he arched his hand and said: "The military advisor attaches great importance to military law, but takes into account the overall situation, how can I have any reason to be resentful?" The national teacher's kindness is deserved, and he asks the national teacher not to help, and watch me break the village in ten days. ”

Nan Ye understood that the martial artists had their own arrogance in their hearts, and when he heard that Wei Yan didn't need to help him, he got up and said goodbye: "Since that's the case, I'll sit and wait for the good news of Wen Chang." If you can help me, you can come to me at any time, you are welcome. ”

After the second general sent Nan Ye away, Lei Tong asked Wei Yandao: "We have nothing to do, why didn't General Wen Chang let the national teacher help?" ”

Wei Yan replied: "If you ask the national teacher to send troops to help, how can you show our ability?" Unprovoked to make everyone look down on it. ”

Lei Tong frowned and said: "Having said that, if you can't break the camp within ten days, shouldn't General Wen Chang be subject to military law?" Turning to the national teacher for help, even if it is shameful, is better than giving up your life. ”

Wei Yan smiled: "General Lei is too worried! How could I, Wei Yan, give up my life because of a momentary anger? I have ten days to spare, and if I don't have a plan to break the village by the ninth day, it's not too late to ask the national teacher for help. ”

When Lei Tong heard this, he calmed down and made a plan with Wei Yan. It's just that the two of them have limited resourcefulness, and the strategies they can come up with are nothing more than ordinary strategies such as luring the enemy into battle, attacking the east and attacking the west, and they also have to guard against Zhang Lu leading the troops to come. After some discussion, it was decided that Wei Yanying would fight in front of Yang Bai, lead Yang Bai to fight, and Lei Tong would guard against Zhang Lu. If Yang Bai goes out of the camp and goes head-to-head, Wei Yan will take the camp. If Yang Bai led the troops out, Wei Yan would deceive the enemy and lure the enemy to Lei Tong, and then the two of them would attack together.

Yang Bai naturally didn't know how Wei Yan and Lei Tong made plans, and he didn't need to know. What Yang Bai has to do is nothing more than to hold the camp, no matter whether you Wei Yan shows weakness to the enemy or insults in every way, I can only close the camp and not come out. As long as you, Wei Yan, don't attack Yangping Pass, I will pretend not to see it. This means that you have your own clever plans, and I have my own rules.

Wei Yan originally planned to put down the bait to fish for fish, but he didn't expect it to become playing the piano to the cow and acting for the blind man, and he was depressed as you can imagine. After nine days in a row, no matter how Wei Yan fought and abused, Yang Bai just didn't come out. Seeing that the ten-day deadline had arrived, Lei Tong discussed with Wei Yan and simply went to Nan Ye to borrow troops.

Although Nanye's soldiers and horses are strong, it will always take some time to attack the camp. So Wei Yan and Yang Bai got up early in the morning and agreed to go to Nan Ye together. On this day, the fog was foggy, and we couldn't see each other. Lei Tong walked all the way to Wei Yan's tent before he saw Wei Yan. But Wei Yan didn't seem to see him, just looked at the fog in the sky.

Lei Tong approached and said, "General Wenchang, don't delay, let's go and find a national division to borrow troops." ”

Wei Yan laughed when he saw Lei Tong coming: "I don't need to borrow soldiers this time, I only borrow armor, I have a plan to break the enemy!" "Let's take Lei Tong to see Nan Ye.

However, it was said that Yang Bai was in the village and listened to Wei Yan calling for battle outside every day, and when he saw the fog on this day, he was afraid that Wei Yan would come to steal the camp, so he ordered the soldiers to be on guard. Just when Yang Bai was on guard, he heard a burst of shouts and killings from the direction of Yangping Pass. Yang Bai heard the sound and went out of the camp to look, only to see a thick fog, ten steps away can not see, can only hear the sound, but can not see people.

Yang Bai was shocked, and secretly thought: Could it be that Wei Yan didn't come to steal the camp today but went to steal the pass? But he didn't succeed in stealing the camp last time, how could he succeed in stealing the pass? Could it be that this is Wei Yan's plan to lure the enemy again?

Seeing Yang Bai's hesitation, the general Chang Qi said: "Wei Yan went to tackle the problem, why didn't the general send troops to rescue him?" ”

Yang Bai glanced at Chang Qi when he heard this. This Changqi was originally a general of Yang Ren, who stayed in Guanzhong because of the occasional cold, and did not go out with Yang Ren, and later learned that Yang Ren was captured and did not know whether he was alive or dead, so he asked for war to come to the camp to avenge Yang Ren. Yang Bai appreciated Changqi's loyalty very much, so he explained: "It's not that I don't go to the rescue, but because Wei Yan and Lei Tong can't enter the customs at all." I'm worried that this is another ploy by them to divert the tiger from the mountain, and as soon as my troops and horses come out, they will attack my camp. ”

Chang Qi also had some strategy, and said to Yang Bai: "Shijun's mana is all over the sky, and if he encounters Wei Yan and Lei Tong, the two generals, he will naturally not lose the pass." But I'm afraid that Nan Ye will take advantage of the fog and the whole army to attack the problem together, if this is the case, the general will lose if he doesn't help the pass! ”

Yang Bai heard what Changqi said, and suddenly broke out in a cold sweat. At the beginning, Zhang Lu ordered him to go out of the customs and become a corner, and it was Nan Ye who defended him. But later, Wei Yan and Lei Tong called for the camp to steal the camp, and Yang Bai focused on the second general, ignoring the existence of Nanye's army. At this time, when he heard Chang Qi mention it, he found that although Wei Yan and Lei Tong were not capable of capturing Yangping Pass, as long as Nan Ye's entire army was exhausted and he did not go to the rescue, Yangping Pass would probably be lost. When the time comes, Zhang Lu will blame it.

Thinking of this, Yang Bai immediately ordered: "Quick! Hurry up and assemble the troops, I'll wait to go to the rescue. ”

As soon as Yang Bai's words fell, he heard the sound of shouting and killing in the fog even louder, and he could faintly hear it: "Shijun blesses, invulnerable!" Shouts. This made Yang Bai even more anxious, and immediately led the troops out of the camp, leaving only Changqi and a small number of men and horses to guard the village.

Changqi stayed in the village, but he missed Yang Bai in his heart, and looked outside the camp from time to time. But except for the heavy fog, there was nothing else to be seen, and the sound of people shouting and neighing horses was heard in the distance. However, what is a little strange is that as soon as Yang Bai led the troops out of the camp, the shouting and killing in the fog suddenly weakened a lot, and then gradually stopped. Chang Qi only saw that as soon as Yang Bai's rescue arrived, Nan Ye retreated.

After another moment, Chang Qi heard the sound of horses' hooves outside the camp, and watched from a distance that it was all his own soldiers' clothes and armor banners, but Yang Bai returned to the army, so he ordered the soldiers to open the camp door.

Lei Tong couldn't help but smile in his heart when he saw Yang Bai's camp door wide open, and led the soldiers to rush in. Chang Qi saw that the situation was wrong and was about to resist, but he was stabbed under the horse by Lei Tong, allowing Lei Tong to seize the camp.

However, it was said that Yang Bai led the troops out and marched to the pass, but as he walked, he heard the sound of shouting and killing weakening, and finally there was no sound at all. After walking a little further, I saw shadows and horses walking in the thick fog. Yang Bai was afraid that it was Nanye's soldiers and horses, so he ordered the soldiers to line up, but when the soldiers and horses in front approached, Yang Bai recognized that it was Zhang Luqi.

Yang Bai was surprised when he saw Zhang Lu, and hurriedly stepped forward to salute: "Why is the lord here?" Could it be that Nanye's soldiers and horses have retreated, and the lord can't go out to chase and kill? ”

Zhang Lu saw Yang Bai was also strange, today he heard the sound of killing under the pass, and thought that Wei Yan took advantage of the fog to rob the camp, so he sent troops to respond. Hearing what Yang Bai said at this time, Zhang Lu was stunned and said: "Didn't the Jiaozhou army attack your camp?" Why do you want me to hunt you down? ”

Yang Bai was shocked when he heard this: "It's not good! We are all Zhongnan Ye's treacherous schemes! ”

Zhang Lu reacted even if Yang Bai didn't say it, and hurriedly returned to Yangping Pass with Yang Bai's troops, but Yang Bai's camp was not taken care of.

Before the two leaders reached the gate, they saw a group of men and horses crashing out in front of them. As soon as Yang Bai was about to step forward to fight, he heard the man in the fog shouting: "Is the lord ahead?" ”

As soon as Zhang Lu heard the voice, he knew that it was Yan Pu, and hurriedly led the troops forward. I saw that Yan Pu and Yang Song had their hair in a messy bun, their faces were full of dust, and they were in a panic, and they had long lost their usual demeanor. Zhang Lu was shocked and said, "Why did you get here?" ”

Yang Song saw Zhang Lu as if he had seen a relative, and cried: "Soon after the lord sent out the army, the shouting and killing in the fog stopped. Then a group of men and horses came, all wearing our army's armor and playing the banner of our army, saying that the lord had defeated the enemy, and the rear team changed to the front team to return to the pass. I waited for the pass to be put in, only to know that it was the enemy general Wei Yan who deceived the pass. As a result, the city was captured by Wei Yan. I waited until the fog was dark to lead the remnants of the army to escape. ”

Zhang Lu also panicked at this time, and hurriedly asked: "Yangping Pass has been lost, what should I do?" ”

Yang Bai said: "Why don't you take advantage of Wei Yan's foothold in the pass to go back to the pass?" ”

Yan Pu also said: "I don't see many soldiers and horses in Wei Yan, this plan is feasible." ”

Zhang Lu heard what his subordinates said, so he led his troops and returned to the front of the pass, at which time Wei Yan had already occupied Yangping Pass. It turned out that Wei Yan's plan was to borrow the clothes and armor of Zhang's guards that had been captured before from Nan Ye and dress them up with Lei Tong. After the two of them led the troops in disguise, they chose to pretend to fight between Yangping Pass and Yang Bai's camp, and sent their troops to investigate in front of the pass and the village. If Zhang Lu is out of the customs, the two will steal the pass from the path, if they find Yang Bai out of the camp, the two will steal the camp from the path, if Zhang Lu and Yang Bai go out together, the two will divide their troops to steal the pass and steal the camp.

Wei Yan saw that Zhang Lu and Yang Bai were leading the troops together above the Guancheng, and he knew that Lei Tong had also succeeded, and couldn't help laughing and said: "This pass has been obtained by me, why don't you come down early?" ”
