At the end of autumn last year, it was the climax of the Battle of Yunliang. The battle was already extremely fierce at such a point, and the nearly 100,000 troops of the Western Liang were under the Chengguan of Chen Bingqing, and for the protection of the city gate, Yun Lan decided to fight to the death, and almost all the main forces of the Western Frontier Army were pushed to the front line to confront the Western Liang Army.

At this time, the rear of Qingguan was extremely empty, and the total number of soldiers guarding and capturing in the Chifeng Battalion was less than two thousand.

"The situation ahead is so grim, are we Chifeng battalion men only worthy of watching the prisoners in the rear, and not worthy of going forward to kill the enemy?!"

In the tent of the Chifeng camp, a general's face was anxious, and his voice was full of anger.

"Shut up!" Lin Shao, who was originally upset about this matter, frowned even deeper when he heard this, and he was also unconvinced in his heart, no matter how he said it, he was also a veteran of the battlefield, and when the big war came, how could he be reduced to the point that he was not even qualified to go to the battlefield?

If it goes on like this, won't all the military exploits be handed over to others, and after a big war, you won't have the slightest benefit?

Even if he was not angry in his heart, he didn't dare to disobey Yun Lan's arrangement, so he could only complain to his subordinates.

"General, someone please see!"

A soldier hurriedly ran into the tent and said to Lin Shao.

"Who is it?"

Two days later, the Western Liang army camped.

"Report! Yu Shizi, we have caught a spy of the Cloud Kingdom! ”

Inside the tent, Lan Xun was studying tactics with the generals, when he suddenly heard a commotion outside, and after a while, he saw a soldier coming to report.

"Spies?" Lan Xun looked curious, put down the things in his hand, and said to the soldiers, "Bring him in." ”

"Let go, let go of me! You guys..."

Soon, a thin young man was twisted in by several soldiers, and he was still swearing.

"Get on your knees! Daring fanatics, do you know what this place is?! ”

It's good that the soldier didn't say this, but as soon as he opened his mouth, he saw the young man's face showing contempt, "Isn't it the camp of the Western Liang Army?" Who to scare! ”

"You!"

Ignoring the soldiers, although the young man was forced to kneel on his knees, he still raised his head and looked arrogant, "I often heard that General Lan was strict in governing the army, but I didn't expect to treat the envoy like this, it seems that the rumors are not credible!" ”

"Oh?" Hearing this young man say that he was an envoy, Lan Xun's face became more interested, "Then tell me, which country are you an envoy?" ”

"It is the envoy of the Great Cloud King's army below, who came on the order of the lord and general to talk to the general."

"Well, I'll believe you're a Great Cloud Envoy." Lan Xun smiled, and then waved his hand to the soldier holding him down, "Then may I ask your envoy, what do you want to talk about with the general this time?" ”

The young man got up from the ground, patted the dust on his body, and said with a smile: "Actually, it's nothing, in the first battle of Yunliang, there were countless dead and wounded soldiers on both sides, but my big Yunnan is bloody, and I haven't heard of anyone captured by your army so far." However, your army is different..."

The young man said, wantonly looking at the not very good-looking faces of the generals in the camp tent, and his heart was even more proud, "Those who did not have time to flee after the defeat of your army were all temporarily retained by our Wang army, not to mention, there are more than a thousand people." ”

"I came here today to ask the general, I don't know what you think about the life and death of these people?"

"What do you mean!"

Before Lan Xun could speak, the lieutenant general beside him suddenly became angry and said loudly.

Waving his hand to stop the deputy general, Lan Xun smiled slightly, "It seems that your envoy is not very well-informed, otherwise how would you not know that there are people in your army who are greedy for life and afraid of death." Although the number of prisoners captured by our army is not large, there are still more than 100 people in total, so I wonder what your commander-in-chief thinks of their life and death? ”

I didn't expect this Lan Xun to be so cunning, and he kicked the problem back again in a few words.

When the young man heard this, not only was he not embarrassed, but laughed and said, "It seems that the son of the world is on the front line, and the news is really closed." Didn't the prince's men tell you that the captured men of our army were gone? ”

The Western Liang Army, like the Yun Army, fought with all their might, so they also put the prisoners in the rear, and because the number of prisoners was small, there was little ability to resist, and the location was on the boundary of the Western Liang Territory, so it should be foolproof.

But the young man's words made Yun Lan frown, he really didn't get any news about the prisoner being rescued.

"Oh, I almost forgot," said the young man, with a sudden look of realization, a hint of amusement between the corners of his mouth, "the place where your army is captive is still a day's distance away, perhaps your messenger has not yet arrived." ”

Coincidentally, as soon as the young man's voice fell, he saw a soldier with a confused and panicked look running in, "Shizi! Oh no, yesterday we were suddenly attacked by a large number of unknown enemies, and the captives of the Yun army, all... All rescued! ”

The scout recounted the situation in fits and starts, and suddenly found that there was no surprise on the faces of the people in the tent.

"The world... The Son..."

"I see, you go down first." There was no joy or anger in Lan Xun's voice.

"Look, you're talking. I have not deceived you. ”

"What do you want?"

At this time, the faces of the generals in the tent were not very good-looking, and one of them spoke out angrily.

"Hey, what do you mean by me, I'm just a little messenger, and I don't have any power."

The young man waved his hand, his face full of indifference, "Don't be so nervous, my general is the most benevolent and unwilling to kill in vain, and he ordered me to come today just to discuss with the prince about returning a prisoner." ”

The young man looked at Lan Xun with a smile, and continued: "It's just that the general has admired the prestige of the prince for a long time, and he hopes that the prince can go in person and pick up the brothers." ”

"Wishful thinking!" Before Lan Xun could speak, his lieutenant immediately shouted, "I want to deceive our son, and then let you slaughter it, what a good calculation!" ”

"Don't say it so ugly," the young man was not annoyed when he saw that his purpose was broken by a word, and said in a soft voice: "And even if we really plan to do wrong, but you think, the life of the son of the world is life, isn't your life your life?" ”

"I think it's worth exchanging a life for a thousand lives."

Although everyone knows that this is his discord plan, most people can't help but feel a little uncomfortable after hearing it.

"Your Excellency, don't forget, this is my camp in the west, and you are alone here to make a big fuss, aren't you afraid that you won't be able to get out?"

"Hey, as the saying goes, when two armies are at war, don't kill them. I am such an insignificant little person, how can the son of the world kill me? ”

"But then again, even if the prince kills me, then I still have thousands of brothers from the Yun Army with me, and I won't be lonely on the road to Huangquan."

Hearing this person's implied threatening words, all the generals were so angry that their teeth itched, but they still threw a mouse bogey, and they didn't dare to do anything to him.
