As soon as Li Yan's words came out, everyone felt that there was a gust of wind in the back of their heads, and they all fell silent, and no one dared to say another word. Li Yan probably felt that he had gone too far, so he slowed down his tone and encouraged him, but he couldn't ease the atmosphere, even if Meng Da was on the side, it would be useless.

What was supposed to be a morale-boosting and close-knit display now has a somewhat ominous flavor.

After returning to the camp, Yinbo came to Li Yan's camp, and before he could speak, Li Yan sighed: "Yuanfeng, it seems that Wei Ba's influence is far greater than ours, I think Meng Dadu is a little biased towards that kid, this battle ...... It's hard to fight. ”

Seeing Li Yan say this, Yin Fan didn't say it anymore, but said patiently: "Wei Ba is a young man, it is inevitable that he is a little arrogant, and now the general has to rely on him again, and it is reasonable for him to put on some shelves." The general is high and powerful, and he wants to compete with the prime minister, and he should be a corporal of etiquette and virtuousness, and he will be subservient. As long as you can win this battle, defeat the prime minister, assist the holy monarch, and build an immortal career, a hundred years later, you will be worthy of the first emperor, worthy of the history, Wei Ba and the like, at best, they are just incorruptible. ”

Li Yan smiled: "He is Lian Po, but am I Zhao Kuo?" ”

Yin Fan hurriedly bowed: "General, that's not what Fan meant. ”

Li Yan waved his hand: "I know." Yuanfeng, although you and I have known each other for a short time, we are familiar at first sight. You also know that if Wei Ba doesn't come, I can capture Xiangyang, but it is inevitable that there will be big damage. For the sake of the country, it is better for him to come to Xiangyang as soon as possible. Can you take a trip to Linyuan? ”

Yin Fan was stunned for a moment, and then responded: "Dare not obey your fate." ”

Li Yan smiled bitterly. got up and walked to Yinfan's side and patted Yinfan's shoulder: "Yuanfeng, hard work." ”

"The general has the grace of knowing me, and I should serve the general as a dog and horse."

"Very good. My son Li Feng is not here, I treat Yuanfeng like a son, and Yuanfeng should treat me like a father. Li Yan stared at Yinfan's eyes and said word by word: "I hope you don't disappoint me." ”

Looking at Li Yan's eyes, Yin Fan suddenly felt a palpitation, as if he was being targeted by a fierce tiger. He hurriedly bowed down and said, "General, Fan will do his best to repay the general." ”

Li Yan let go of the hidden treasure. There was a tired look on his face: "I'm a little tired. From tomorrow. I will arrange for Feng Jin and others to attack Hanshui, cut off the pontoon bridge, and if possible, conquer Fancheng first. Then surround the lonely city of Xiangyang. It is estimated that it will take about a month to complete. This time. You're just going to Linyuan. Help me take a good look at Wei Ba's strength, and see if he will go all out or deal with it in vain. ”

Yin Bo answered. Turn around and go out. Li Yan watched him leave, and when his back disappeared outside the tent door, the corners of Li Yan's mouth twitched, reached into his arms, and slowly took out a letter, stared at it for a long time, but did not open it, he brought the letter forward and lit it. The bamboo paper was roasted and rolled up by the fire, illuminating Li Yan's gloomy eyes and illuminating the two knife-like wrinkles on the wings of his nose.

When Yinbo returned to his tent, he felt a cold sweat break out of his body. He sat in front of the desk and sat quietly for a long time. Li Yan's words just now made his heart tremble, and he didn't know whether Li Yan was telling the truth just now, or testing his words. As a spy, he must always be vigilant and deal with any unexpected situation.

Li Yan asked him to go to Linyuan to urge Wei Ba to come to Xiangyang as soon as possible, this matter was not in his Jihua. He thought about it, pondered Li Yan's thoughts, and felt that there seemed to be no doubt about it. Wei Ba is famous for his mechanical skills, and if he wants to attack a city, having a talent like him can indeed increase his chances of victory. However, it was precisely because of Wei Ba's mechanical skills that Sima Yi didn't want Wei Ba to come to Xiangyang too early, so Li Yan asked him to go to Linyuan to urge Wei Ba, but gave him a chance.

Yinbo thought for a long time, wrote a small note, carefully rolled it up, stuffed it into the edge of the cuffs, and carefully smoothed the folds until there was no flaw in it.

The next day, Yinbo rushed to Linyuan with more than a dozen guards. These guards were all arranged by Li Yan to protect him, in fact, it can be said that they are spying on him. Yinbo's every move was within their sight. However, Hide still took the opportunity of Degong to press the note in the edge of his sleeve under a stone. Half a moment after he left, the grass pierced out a Wei army and took this information.

When Yinbo arrived in Jiangling, Sima Shi received this information. After pondering for a while, he came to see Sima Yi with information.

"Father."

Sima Yi, who was leaning on the desk and staring at a map, turned his face sideways, glanced at him, waved his hand, and motioned for him to sit down. Sima Shi sat down and sent Yinbo's situation over. Sima Yi didn't answer, and glanced at Sima Shi's hand. The words on the note were very vague, and it looked like a few lines of poetry that were moaning without illness, but in fact they were all hidden words, and only a few people concerned could understand them.

"Li Yan has a big heart, but he has little courage, and his tactics are very conservative." Sima Yi took a sip of the water cup and said unhurriedly: "This is not quite like his temper. ”

Sima Shi smiled: "At this time, at that time, his strength is not good now, and he is facing the real main force of my Great Wei, not those rabble, and it is also appropriate to be cautious." ”

"Hmm." Sima Yi smiled: "Ziyuan, you don't know, this kind of talent is terrifying." Because he will change, when he sees the weak, he will be a tiger, and when he sees the strong, he temporarily puts away his claws and pretends to be a harmless fawn, but when you show a flaw, he will use his beautiful antlers to kill you at once. ”

Sima Shi glanced at Sima Yi with a smile: "Could it be that he is even more difficult to deal with than Kong Ming?" ”

"Weishenme can't?" Sima Yi stared at Sima Shi and said slowly.

Sima Shi didn't smile, he frowned slightly, and said softly: "Father thinks that Zhang He didn't break through Guanzhong because Zhang He was incompetent?" ”

"I never said that Zhang He was incompetent." Sima Yi shook his head: "Of course I didn't say that Zhuge Liang was incompetent, but compared with Li Yan, Zhuge Liang still has traces to follow, and you can know in advance what he is going to do." But with a person like Li Yan, it's hard for you to predict his next move. He raised his chin and pointed to the information in Sima Shi's hand: "We originally had the hidden chess piece of Yinfan. But now that Yinbo has gone to Linyuan, we have no eyeliner by Li Yan's side. Who can guarantee that his tactics will not change? ”

"But this kind of tactics is decent, and it is indeed a relatively safe tactic." Sima Shihu asked suspiciously: "Father, do you think Li Yan deliberately broke away from Yinbo?" ”

"I don't know, but I can doubt it." Sima Yi twisted his beard and said unhurriedly: "Don't believe it, don't believe it all, whether this is the case, it depends on whether Li Yan really uses troops like this at that time." But......" he muttered for a moment, "actually. It doesn't matter if it changes or doesn't change. We can't guess what he was thinking. The biggest variable is also the young man, I am very worried about the safety of Yinbo. ”

Sima Shi's heart sank.

"Don't forget, Wei Ba is a person who has been an intermediary. Peng Heng went to see him again. He probably already knew that the hidden Tibetan was a room. Do you think he will kill Yinbo? To prevent future troubles? ”

Sima Shi was taken aback: "Father, then should we inform Yinbo?" ”

"No, you don't." Sima Yi smiled coldly: "Since Yinbo is in the middle, he is ready to die." We might as well take advantage of the hidden life and death. Let's see if there is really a discord between Wei Ba and Li Yan, or is it a trick. ”

Sima Shi frowned and was silent.

"Remember, don't get involved. Don't mess up our plans because of the life and death of a hidden person. Sima Yi said faintly: "Maybe Yinbo is dead, which is more beneficial to us." ”

……

When Yinfan arrived in Linyuan, Wei Ba was training his troops, and more than 10,000 people recruited after the autumn were practicing the formation. At the sound of an order, the soldiers held wooden halberds and blunt knives, and the arrows galloped, shouting and killing to the sky.

Wei Ba stood on the platform, looking at the soldiers who were training, his face was very ugly. He glanced at Yinbo who walked under the command platform and beckoned: "You are the envoy of the hussar general, descending to Yinbo?" ”

Yin Fan was stunned for a moment, then bowed down and replied, "It's exactly below." ”

Wei Ba frowned: "You come up." ”

Yin Fan was puzzled, but he still lifted the hem of his clothes and walked up, standing behind Wei Ba. Wei Ba pointed to the soldiers who were fighting: "Do you think these people can use it?" ”

Yin Fan glanced at it, but did not answer. He didn't know what Wei Ba meant, and looking at Wei Ba's face, it didn't look like he was going to ask him. Since it's not an inquiry, it's naturally difficult. Thinking of Wei Ba's reluctance to leave for Xiangyang, Yinbo understood a little.

"Fan is a scholar, but he doesn't know soldiers." Yin Fan said cautiously: "But the general has won a hundred battles, and the soldiers he has trained must be elite soldiers." ”

"According to what you say, I deliberately shirked the blame, and I had soldiers in hand, but I refused to go to support the hussar general?" Wei Ba dragged out his voice, and said in a strange manner: "The hussar general asked you to come, do you want to hold me accountable?" ”

Yin Fan smiled bitterly to himself, and said in his heart that this person was really arrogant, no matter how he answered, he couldn't avoid being found an excuse to make a biao. He said quietly: "The general misunderstood, the hussar general sent me, just to see how prepared the general is and when he can set off, and he has no intention of holding the general accountable." ”

Wei Ba sneered twice, turned around, continued to watch the exercises, and left Yinbo there for a long time. Hidden is like sitting on pins and needles, but it is not easy to move. He tried his best to keep his composure and stood silently behind Wei Ba. I don't know how much has passed, just when Yinfan felt that his feet were numb and his legs were weak, Wei Ba suddenly said: "Yinfan, do you know that I used to be in Chang'an?" ”

Yinfan, who was struggling hard, couldn't help but snort, thought for a moment, and replied respectfully: "I have heard of the general's exploits. ”

"Then when you come to Chengdu, do you want to follow my example?"

Yin Fan lowered his face and looked serious: "The general should not push others with himself." Yinbo was born in a poor family, and there was no way to enter, and it was said that there was a saint in Shu, Shao Ji, the Han Yande, and the hussar general Lixian Corporal, which was not far away, and came to serve. If the general sees it this way, doesn't he reject the people of the world from thousands of miles away? ”

"Clever words, fresh and benevolent." Wei Ba sneered, and his voice was fierce. "You don't know who you really are? Someone, push him down for me, and behead the sacrificial flag. ”
