The enemy country came to the secret letter
General Lin no longer paid attention to General Liu, and ordered someone to take him down to take care of him, and he must not be allowed to escape, and those who neglect their duties will be beheaded immediately.
With such a harsh military order, the sergeant knew the importance of this matter in his heart, and immediately guarded it carefully, not daring to slack off.
General Lin picked up the letterhead again, and sighed: "I know that there are people in the Yi country, even if I don't know, Your Majesty will tell me, but this time there is no news at all, so who is the person this time?"
Xue Yun was closest to their position, and from what had happened between their words, she suddenly saw that the handwriting on the letterhead was somewhat familiar, and asked, "General, can you show me this letter?"
General Lin handed the letter to her, and when she took a closer look, she saw that the letter was written: "The border pass is lost, and the thieves are doing it." Don't be disturbed by it. Capture the thief first capture the king, shoot the man first shoot the horse, the general is in a high position, is the primary target of the enemy, the thief has appeared, it is like rats, flies and cockroaches, wandering around, it is impossible to prevent it in the future, the battle of Stone Forest City, Guangyuan City, Yi and the traitor have discussed to kill you forever, the general should be careful of his own people. ”
After seeing it, Zhuyun's pupils shrank suddenly, and he exclaimed: "Zhou Wenlian, this is Zhou Wenlian's handwriting!" How could it be him, how did he know! ”
After a series of exclamations, General Lin hurriedly asked, "Is it Zhou Wenlian, who used to be by the prince's side?"
Many people don't know the relationship between them, and it sounds too complicated, so they don't ask much, Mei Yuexue suddenly remembered: "It turns out that Zhou Wenlian didn't go to the capital to learn a craft, but to help Gu Wangye."
Since Gu Zhiyun came out of the capital, she has only been immersed in her own sadness, and she has long left Zhou Wenlian out of the clouds, she was also carried away by hatred and sadness, forgetting such a person, and it was not until this time that his words appeared in front of him again, and she remembered what she had overlooked.
If it weren't for Zhou Wenlian, their family wouldn't have lasted so long, he was willing to be stabbed by her in person, and risked his life to act with her, since then, Zhou Wenlian seems to have a different feeling, at first he just worshipped, then admired, and moved, this person began to become very important. If it weren't for him, she wouldn't be able to keep her heart, and she wouldn't have been able to get out of the capital smoothly one day.
But after she escaped, she forgot that he was still trapped in Prime Minister Luan's mansion, maybe because of guilt, maybe because she thought of him and remembered her father, or maybe she simply missed him as a person, in short, she suddenly shed tears: "How could he get the news of Yiren, how did he escape from Prime Minister Luan, where is he now, I'm really confused, I'm really confused, I've forgotten him!"
She didn't know what he had been through.
I don't know what happened to Zhuyun, and the accumulated sadness instantly swelled up, and he broke down and cried on the spot.
Mei Yuexue and Yue Lin had no choice but to take her aside, and Lin Hong hurriedly asked someone to move the chair over to let Xue Yun rest, and asked, "Girl, are you sure this is Zhou Wenlian's handwriting, there is no problem?"
"I'm sure it's his handwriting, there's a very special way of writing in it, he showed it off to me, he said it was his own penmanship."
Lin Hong said to General Lin: "Father, according to the child, although the trace of this Zhou Wenlian Gongzi is not traceable, the authenticity of this letter is also debatable, but one Zhou Gongzi is the person selected by Gu Wangye, there must be no mistake, and second, Zhou Gongzi does not know that any of us can recognize his handwriting, and he is not a god, how can he calculate Zhao...... This girl was able to come to us today and recognize his handwriting, and it is clear that he had no intention of deceiving us with his handwriting. Think about it, we can't know about the matter of Jiayongguan in advance, and we don't know what the situation is now! Jiayong Pass is so far away, Prime Minister Luan can grasp it so accurately, and he wants to transfer you out of the capital, the current situation in the capital is really unimaginable! We were already at a disadvantage, burning our eyebrows, and if this letter was really not credible, then he would not have to bother. So since he is willing to remind us like this, there is only one purpose for the other party, he wants to save the country. ”
When he said the back, he deliberately lowered his voice, and General Lin nodded after hearing this: "The situation this time is unprecedentedly grim." He suddenly turned his head to look at Lin Hong and said, "Usually I make up my mind, but this time you analyzed it so thoroughly, so why don't you tell me, what should we do?" What are your ideas? ”
Lin Yan said: "The child thinks that we might as well do the calculations. It's just this matter, maybe we have to ask the heroes and heroes present to help, the father faked his death on the battlefield, the child protected the father to escape, we have to let the people go further, they can be unscrupulous, the enemy was originally in the dark and I am in the shadow, so it can be the other way around, when the time comes, please also ask all the heroes and heroes to come forward and escort the people in the city to escape, the Lin family army will temporarily be led by the second brother to retreat, we try to preserve as much strength as possible, but may also have to give up some things. ”
General Lin nodded and said: "The strategy is the same as I thought, the national crisis is at the head, and we must protect the people suffering in the two cities to the greatest extent."
The Taoist leader of Ziyun Temple said: "Don't worry about protecting the people, general, we have united the largest force in the Chao'an City, the Hidden Dragon Village, to gather the heroes of the world to come here, and now I have gathered a lot of people on Ziyun Mountain, we have roughly estimated that there are two thousand people in the major gangs combined!"
General Lin nodded and said: "It is easy for Prime Minister Luan's hand to reach into the temple, but it is not easy to reach into the rivers and lakes, but you heroes still have to be careful."
Ziyun Mountain said, "The general can rest assured, they are all trustworthy friends."
"That's good, then let's divide labor and cooperate, we will immediately go to Guangyuan City, fight with the Yi people, find an opportunity to cheat the death and lose the battle, and lead the Yi people to occupy Guangyuan City, we will open the city gate in advance, let the people flee out of the city, and then it will all depend on everyone." General Lin saluted deeply to everyone, and the Taoist chief hurriedly said: "The general doesn't have to be like this, I and other people who practice martial arts, there is a lot of blood in our chests, in order to support justice, otherwise what is the meaning of this skill?"
After the two sides agreed, the group of heroes took a short rest and continued to detour back to Ziyun Mountain.
It has been two full days since General Lin led his troops to camp outside Guangyuan City and began to officially fight against the Yi people.
In ancient times, there were rules for the two countries to fight, unlike unreasonable hooligans fighting on the street, who came up and did it, without any rules. There are rules and regulations for two countries to fight, where they want to fight, according to the rules, they must first make a war post, the two sides agree on the battlefield, and when they arrive at the agreed place, the two sides will begin to call the battle with their respective armies, and then each side will send a soldier to fight in front of them, and the sword will be beaten down, and there will be losses and wins, and the losing party can send people to play again, and so on.
Of course, this is just a template, and when the actual action starts, it is basically these processes, but there will always be special situations, so there are military books like "The Art of War" to give advice.
So if you say that the rules are dead, people are alive, then what do you do if you encounter a whole country full of stinky hooligans, just don't follow the rules?
Rank, the two countries are at war, nothing more than for the interests of the two countries, family hatred, gold and silver, or land. Fighting a war is a big deal, and even in that era when information transmission is not developed, where there is a war, the general situation of the war will spread quickly. Once used, you may be able to gain some small benefits, but it is easy to lose the reputation of this country.
No matter in any era, the soul of a country will always be the people, and no matter how powerful an army an emperor has, it is better to have the people who support him everywhere. Therefore, the more you are in a high position, the more you must maintain your own image and maintain your own image, so as to win the hearts of the people in the world, so the country is strong and prosperous, and whether the emperor is virtuous or not. And once the two countries are at war, if they don't grasp the proportions well, it will affect the image of the emperor, so it doesn't matter if they participate in the war and bring about war, the important thing is that they must not be the unreasonable side.
If something is unreasonable, it will be despised or distrusted by other countries, and it will also lose the support of the people, and then destroy the whole country. This is the truth summed up by the thousands of years of Wenyin in the Central Plains.
But the Yi people are different. The living environment of the northern country is harsh, the population of the Yi people has always been small, compared to the southern country, the food is scarce, the climate is cold, and they have to rack their brains to fight wits and courage with the wolves on the grassland, their world tells them that they are physically strong enough to survive, they are different from the Central Plains, so the same method of smelting the country cannot be used in another country.
Many examples in history tell us that it is not enough to just defeat the country, but to defend it.
The Yi people have their own pride and advantages, but in terms of how to smelt the country, the Yi people are not as comprehensive as the Mu people.
Just like this time the Yiren attacked the city without informing, it seems to be a little achievement, but in fact, this thing is not authentic.
As we said earlier, Mu has been interfering in the government of Yi State, and even major events such as the change of emperors have to intervene, everyone may think that the emperor of Mu State is not a good person, but Mu State has said since the reign of Emperor Taizu that the national style of Yi State is far away from Mu State, and Mu State must not have the heart of annexation, and can only live in peace with it, in recent years, from the perspective of the people of the two countries, it has actually brought benefits to Yi State, just a little tribute, but it is not worth mentioning compared with the benefits brought by trade between the two countries, But the third prince didn't think so in his eyes.
The third prince felt that it was really unreasonable for the iron man of Yiguo to bow down to the soft and weak Mu people, he just wanted to fight for himself, the core purpose of his war was so simple, and the reason why he was able to lead the troops was because other people couldn't think about it so much, the reason why this is the case is not that the people of Yiguo are stupid, but in their values, a man who grew up on horseback must stand up to the sky and be respected.
So he wants to fight for the Yiren.
But in fact, the third prince is not so simple, his strategy is more ruthless than that of Prime Minister Luan.
