Chapter 196: Chaos arises
It is true that it can't be hidden, pregnant people are generally squeamish, and medicine and doctors can't do without their bodies, no, although the Wei army pulled out the camp, some people said that the boss did not move, but as soon as Ye Yuqing inquired about the medicine jar and the doctor left together, he immediately sent someone to continue to investigate.
The spy replied: "Among the ten camps heading to the direction of Wangu Gorge, there is indeed a trace of Emperor Wei Xiao. ”
Smiling slightly, Ye Yuqing said, "Then let's follow, walk slowly, don't be in a hurry." ”
"Yes!"
The Song army, which had suffered setbacks one after another, was already a little weak, and was driven out of Wangu Gorge by General Yin with people. In the past six months, the Song State has not won a single battle, and the army's spirit has collapsed, but it is barely supported. Yin Yanzhong had already calculated that as long as the Song army could be repelled twenty miles in one fell swoop, the Song State would definitely withdraw its troops to the north of Wangu Gorge. Being an enemy of the Three Kingdoms at the same time, this pressure is still greater after all.
However, just as he was preparing to attack at night, a spy suddenly came to report in a hurry: "General, the rear has found a large number of troops of Wu State, and there has been friction with reinforcements. ”
Wu Guo had friction with them? Yin Yanzhong frowned: "How is the battle going?" ”
"Wu attacked for an hour before retreating, and our reinforcements suffered heavy casualties."
With a tightness in his heart, Yin Yanzhong felt a chill behind his back: "Have you found out the reason for the battle?" ”
"Wu sent someone over there, saying that he didn't see clearly when it was dark and was injured by mistake."
Will the accidental injury take an hour? Yin Yanzhong didn't believe it, and neither did the Song generals who received the news. What does it mean for your own people to fight at this juncture?
After thinking about it for a while, the Song army, which was under great pressure, sent people to go to the military camp of Wu State at night, muttered for a while, and went back to the military camp of Song State with the news.
So the next day, when Yin Yanzhong sent troops according to the plan, the support from the rear of Wu was delayed, and the morale of the Song army was inexplicably high, and the battle was bloody, with countless casualties.
"How dare he do that!" Listening to the casualties of the front-line generals, Feng Yue's eyes were red, and she stood up and roared: "What about Lao Tzu's knife?" I'm going to cut down these bastards! ”
It's clearly an ally, but at this juncture of the last battle, it wants to reap the benefits!
He Chou, who didn't believe their words before, was also dumbfounded next to him, his eyes were complicated, and he twisted the handkerchief in his hand and didn't speak.
"Calm down." Yin Gezhi said lightly: "I expected it early in the morning. ”
expected it, but when he really heard that so many people had died, Feng Yue still felt angry: "Playing with human lives on the battlefield, he is not worthy of being in charge of the army at all!" ”
There are also people from Wu in front of them, who don't know that the prince of their country is waiting behind them to collect their bodies. The reinforcements were between Yushan Pass and Wangu Gorge, but they didn't rush over in time to support! Isn't someone else's life a life? The innocent soldiers who are bent on fighting for the country of Wu deserve to be sacrificed?!
"Everyone has their own plans." Yin Ge stopped getting up, tied the cloak around her, and said lightly: "He is afraid that if the Three Kingdoms win this battle, the Wu State will not have the strength to deal with the Wei State." It is reasonable to think like this. ”
It's just that this time, Ye Yuqing still won't win him.
Reinforcements from ten battalions of Wei arrived, uniting the remnants of Qi and Wu to fight the enemy. This battle lasted for three days, and in the end the Song State was still defeated, retreated for twenty miles, and closed the city gate to collect troops.
At the moment when Song Guo Mingjin came, Ye Yuqing arrived with Wu Guo's reinforcements, looked at Yin Yanzhong with a smile and said, "The general has worked hard. ”
The blood on his face was not wiped off, Yin Yanzhong looked at him deeply, and said, "General Guan once said that those who shed blood on the battlefield are worthy of respect. ”
He didn't say the second half of the sentence, but everyone could hear it - the person who didn't shed blood on the battlefield and finally came to collect merit is not worthy of respect.
Prince Ye, who was not worthy of respect, chuckled lightly and said nonchalantly: "The Song Kingdom has withdrawn from the army, everyone has worked hard, let's go back and write the war report first." Hongu also took people to camp first. When I was free in the evening, I also invited the lord of Wei to come out for a drink. ”
"Your Highness stays." In front of the Marshal of Qi State, Yin Yanzhong stepped forward to stop him, and said with a sharp gaze: "There is something Your Highness has not yet explained-why did you take the initiative to attack our Wei State reinforcements before, and why did you communicate with Song State in an illicit letter?!" ”
After a pause, Ye Yuqing raised his eyes to look at him: "Why did the general say this?" As far as this palace knows, the last melee was because I didn't see clearly after dark, and mistook the Wei army for the enemy. But where to start when it comes to the secret correspondence between the palace and the Song Kingdom? ”
If you want to talk about letters, Yin Yanzhong's waist straightened up, and he reached out and took out a few letters and put them in the hands of Marshal Qi Guohuo.
Huo Nan is a famous general of Qi and a powerful person, and he usually corresponds with Ye Yuqing in letters. So as soon as he opened the letter and saw the seal on it, he sank his face and frowned at Ye Yuqing.
Ye Yuqing stretched out his hand to grab the letter: "Impossible, this must be a forgery." ”
"How to fake?" Huo Nan withdrew his hand: "His Royal Highness's seal is still recognizable below." ”
Ye Yuqing pursed her lips: "But this palace has not written such a letter." ”
Even if it is written, it is absolutely impossible to fall into the hands of Wei.
However, such a statement pales in front of the white letters, black letters, and red seals. Huo Nan smiled silently, and Yin Yanzhong said angrily: "Wu is strong, and we rely on military strength to speak, so we naturally can't fight for anything." But Your Highness, this time against the Song Dynasty, it was Wu who took the initiative to ask the two countries to unite, and my Wei and Qi have contributed a lot. When it comes to crossing the river and demolishing the bridge, His Royal Highness should do less. ”
Ye Yuqing was silent, watching the two people in front of him leave, pinching the reins with deep eyes.
Want him not to tear down the bridge? How is that possible, people are ready. He didn't attack Wei, he just had to kill Yin Ge, so he could sit back and relax. At present, Yin Gezhi is in the military camp, and the camp of the Three Kingdoms is not far away, taking advantage of the chaos to succeed, and it is a mistake to be injured, with the current strength of Wei, he will definitely not take the initiative to attack Wu, so he can only swallow this dumb loss.
Such a good thing, if he doesn't seize the opportunity, then he won't be called Ye Yuqing.
When he went back to the barracks, he first wrote a letter to appease Huo Nan, Ye Yuqing raised his pen and sent an invitation to Yin Gezhi.
Not long after the invitation was sent, someone took back Yin Gezhi's handwritten letter: "The bones of the soldiers who died in the war are not cold, and the wine will not be drunk, I hope Your Highness will do it yourself." ”
His anger could be seen between the lines, Ye Yuqing smiled, pointed to the letter paper with his fingertips, and sighed: "In the past, this palace also sent him invitations like this five times, but he was all turned away. Now I didn't expect to encounter such a situation again. No matter what, this battle is going to be fought. ”
There was silence in the military camp of the Wei State, and after the soldiers had cooked and eaten, they disappeared, as if they had gone to bed early and recuperated. The general's tent also asked the doctor to send a bowl of fetal medicine in, and it seemed that the emperor of Wei was all about the queen.
So, as soon as the time came, Wu's feather arrows lit a fire with an oilcloth and shot into the Wei military camp like rain.
