Chapter 123: The Empty City (I)
Yuan Shao's face sank like water, without the slightest emotion, and said word by word: "Yes, I am the leader of the princes, how can I reward and punish unclear, meritorious rewards, and excessive punishments?" Joan of Arc, you have a felony and should be beheaded according to the law, but killing a meritorious person will damage my honor. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info So, I can only dispose of it as a countervail, and expel you ......"
Joan of Arc's face was like ashes, her expression was full of grievances, and she instantly changed from a strong person in the creation space to the most helpless woman, as if she was helpless when she fell into the clutches of a playboy and endured his ravages and humiliation.
"In order to help you complete the hegemony, I sacrificed everything, gave up my dignity, compromised with the enemy, and forced my friends to do things against my will, but you, give me such a ruthless reward......"
Yuan Shao waved his hand, as if driving away a defeated dog, and snorted coldly: "Don't say more, don't get out of here!" ”
Joan of Arc was about to say more, but there was a secret rumor from Lady Venus next to her, who urgently advised: "There is no old lady here, there is a place for old women." It's just a plot character NPC, a stupid thing like a clay sculpture and wood sculpture, why are you so obsessed with him, go! ”
With that, Lady Venus dragged Joan of Arc away, followed by more than a dozen senior Chosen Ones of the Western District who had fought together in Bishui Pass, all of whom left without looking back. Yuan Shao couldn't help but feel a little lost when he saw that they really left, only Yuan Shu saw that the plan succeeded, his face was full of joy and pride.
However, before he could make a suggestion to Cao Cao, Cao Cao chased straight out of the camp, took three steps and made two steps, quickly caught up with Lady Venus and Joan of Arc and others, and said with his hands clenched and said, "Generals, take a slow step for the time being." ”
Madame Venus's eyes were as sharp as a sword, and she looked back murderously and said, "Why, Cao Yuanjun, do you still want to kill them all?" ”
Cao Cao hurriedly shook his head and said: "Madam misunderstood, I just think that now the princes and the prince are in a state of incompatibility with Yang Ye's northern Xinjiang and Bingzhou armies, and the soldiers are in danger of fighting, and there is bloodshed everywhere. If you don't give up, Cao wants to keep you, temporarily stay in our military camp, and wait for the war to subside before leaving. ”
Lady Venus sneered, "Oh, you want to take us in? Aren't you afraid that the alliance leader will be unhappy? ”
Cao Cao said righteously: "Cao Cao acted only on righteousness, but he was never afraid of the obscenity of others, and the Lord of the Yuan League was also a hero in the world, not a narrow-minded person. ”
Mrs. Venus nodded slightly and said, "This is not bragging, when you were a Lang official in Luoyang, you hung a pale yellow five-colored stick, and even killed Jian Shuo's uncle......"
Cao Cao said with a smile: "Why bother talking about the little things in the past, I don't know if the two ladies can deign, I know that Mr. Yu and the two of them have long been friends." ”
Lady Venus turned to Joan of Arc and said, "What do you think?" Anyway, there is no other place to go for the time being, and the task of the God saint still has to be done. Although the teacher did not speak in person, the spokesperson he chose had already explained the teacher's new attitude. ”
Joan of Arc shook her head weakly and said, "I'm in a mess right now, it's up to you." ”
While the two were talking, there was a sudden uproar in the camp, but it was the new army that had been drawn up, and the people who led the soldiers were Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu's brothers.
Venus then asked Cao Cao curiously, Cao Cao immediately sent a scout horse to investigate, and he got the news in a moment, it turned out to be a secret agent of the Yuan family lurking in Bishui Pass, and sent important information, Liu Huiniang's state army, for some reason, was moving in a big way.
The first person to get the news was Yuan Shu, the sister-in-law of the Yuan family. Yuan Shu received the information, grabbed the credit, did not consult with anyone, and quickly dispatched troops to Bishui Pass; Yuan Shao received the news a little later than Yuan Shu, but in order to save the face lost from the defeat of Joan of Arc, he also decided to personally send troops to pursue the Bingzhou army, and followed Yuan Shu to send troops.
After hearing these news, only two words came out of Lady Venus's mouth: "Idiot! ”
Joan of Arc was shocked, exclaiming, "Oh, no", and made a gesture to go out, but was flicked by Lady Venus, and several large holes were hit, and suddenly she couldn't move, and fell into Venus's arms.
"Venus, what are you going to do? Quickly unlock the acupoint for me, the military situation is urgent, the situation is dangerous, this is clearly Liu Huiniang's plan, I want to remind the alliance leader ......"
"Alliance leader, alliance leader...... What is the lord of the alliance, Yuan Shao is unkind to us, we are unjust to him, and let him be taught by Liu Huiniang. By the way, Cao Yuanjun, where is the rest camp you arranged, our general Joan of Arc is in good health......"
Cao Cao said with a smile: "It's not far away, Cao Mou is leading the way in front." ”
For the time being, they will not be listed, but Yuan Shao will send troops, with Feng Ji, Xun Chen, Guo Tu, and the Xin family brothers as strategists, and Jiao Touch, Zhang Nan, Lu Weihuang, Guo Yuan, and Zhao Zhao as generals. Among the generals under his command, he is the most powerful in recruiting skills.
This person is good at military training, and his art of war is comparable to Tian Yu. When Joan of Arc was under the command of Yuan Shao, he paid the most attention to him, and gave the eighth heroic backer of the Sui and Tang Dynasties, Yang Lin, the power of the battle spirit, proficient in a pair of water and fire prisoner dragon sticks, and then bravely crowned the three armies.
Yuan Shao relied on the help of the good ministers, and the army under his command was strong and majestic, and the marching speed was extremely fast, although the troops were later than Yuan Shu, but when they arrived at Bishui Pass, they were earlier than Yuan Shu's army.
It was unusually quiet in front of the Bishui Pass, the city gate was open, and on the city wall, there was no half of the guarding soldiers, and it was clearly an empty city. Yuan Shao originally came to fight for merit, but when he saw such a bright and bright situation in front of him, he secretly hesitated, for fear that there would be fraud.
Feng Ji, Xun Chen, and Guo Tu are all wise and resourceful, acting steadily, and immediately sent a horse to investigate the city, and it didn't take long for the horse to lead the Yuan family spies in the city to come out and report the situation to them: it turned out that just a few hours ago, Liu Huiniang led the army of Bingzhou to retreat in advance, and it is said that they rushed to the Tiger Prison Pass.
Therefore, in front of Yuan Shao, there are two choices: one is more risky, leading the army to pursue and join the state army, which may achieve a major victory, but may eat the enemy's return horse pistol and suffer a crushing defeat; the other is relatively safe, taking advantage of the situation to capture the Bishui Pass; Picking the fruits of real victory, of course, Bishui Pass at this time is an empty shell after being squeezed dry by Liu Huiniang, and its strategic value is not high.
The generals immediately stepped forward and asked for battle: "Alliance leader, you make a decision, we will go after and kill the Bingzhou army, we will definitely win the victory and take the head of Liu Huiniang, a slut." ”
Feng Ji and other strategists also admonished: "It is useless to capture Bishui Pass, and the annihilation of the military of Bingzhou can affect the situation. Ben Chu Gong, this risk, we should take it. ”
Yuan Shao's face sank like water, completely unmoved, and only looked to the side and asked an irrelevant question: "Where is the army on the highway going?"
Lu Weihuang bowed and said: "General Hou's troops, at most, can reach Bishui in three hours. ”
Yuan Shao pondered for a moment and said: "I have heard for a long time that the Bingzhou army is brave and good at fighting, Liu Huiniang is resourceful, and it is difficult to defeat it in just three hours. Since I am the lord of the alliance of princes, I personally send troops, and I promise to win invincible, how can I take risks easily? Pass my general order that the army enter the city and seize the Bishui Pass. ”
Xun Chen in the strategist group acted meticulously, and questioned his words: "Ming Gong, there is no trace of the enemy army, the city gate is wide open, do we also have to guard against ambushes, if the whole army rushes forward, we are afraid of falling into its treacherous schemes." ”
Yuan Shao laughed and said: "If you are too worried, Joan of Arc once told me about the art of war in the outer heavens, and there is exactly a plan called 'Suspicious Soldiers in the Empty City'. The so-called unpredictability of reality and reality disguises the weakness of strength in order to create the enemy's illusion and make wrong judgments on the use of troops. The strategy Liu Huiniang uses today must be a suspicious soldier in the empty city. She wanted to make our army prostrate in front of the city and not dare to enter, but choose to pursue its main force, and then intercept it in the middle of the road. Although her plan is ruthless, I already know everything, how can I go with her wishes? ”
Xun Chen, Feng Ji and others wanted to persuade again, but Yuan Shao raised the ancestral peerless divine soldier "Sizhao Sword" above his head and waved it, and shouted loudly: "All the soldiers, follow me into the city!" ”
The dragon stick that held the water and fire prisoner followed Yuan Shao's footsteps, followed by Jiao Touch, Zhang Nan, Lu Weihuang, Guo Yuan and others, all of whom were tiger generals, galloping and fierce, majestic, high-spirited, and murderous through the sky.
"Pedaling, pedaling", the sound of neat horseshoe kicking was endless, and Yuan Jiajun was led by scouts and secret agents, without any hindrance, without encountering any ambush, and safely entered the Bishui Pass.
Yuan Shao saw that the situation was going well, and laughed wildly: "As I expected, Liu Huiniang is an empty city plan, and it is appropriate for our army to take the lead." ”
However, Feng Ji, Xun Chen, Guo Tu and other strategists did not have Yuan Shao's optimism, and they were all worried and noticed that the situation was abnormal.
Because after entering the customs, they found that except for the loyal servants and secret agents hidden by the Yuan family, there were very few people in Bishui Pass, and it almost became an empty city; So he asked about the secret agent, but said that Liu Huiniang had moved most of the people with the army.
"Most of the people migrated with the army, leaving only those loyal to the Yuan family. Could it be that Liu Huiniang actually knows everything about the situation of the Yuan family's secret agents? Feng Ji was suddenly frightened, and thought of an extremely dangerous possibility, "Oh no, we've been tricked!" ”
The words have not yet fallen, but I heard a loud sound of the sky and the earth cracking, the quadrangular city wall of Bishui Pass, was suddenly detonated by fire and thunder, and collapsed at the same time, rumbling and rubble fell, crushing countless soldiers of the Yuan family, Yuan Shao and others were shocked, but they had to wait for the whole army to flee for their lives, and a thick fog was set off in the sky in an instant, and Bai Wanwan stretched out his hand and could not see his five fingers, enveloping the entire Bishui Pass in it.
Liu Huiniang's delicate voice also came from the sky: "Master Yuan, welcome to the tiger, sisters of the slave family, I have been waiting here for a long time." ”
In the dense fog, Yuan Jun was difficult to take care of, and under the unknown situation, they actually killed each other, but Feng Ji was also a professional military advisor, who knew the skills of a special military teacher, and took out the seven-star sword and pointed it into the air, and launched the "Clearing the Clouds and Driving the Fog", attracting the golden sword and creating precious light in the dense fog.
But when Feng Ji successfully dispelled the fog and saw the situation in Bishui Guanzhong clearly, not only was there no joy, but the sadness on his face was even stronger. It turned out that there were bells ringing in the air, and one after another paper lamps were suspended in the air, and on the paper lamp barrier, a clear astrological map was drawn.
"One, two, three, four...... Twenty-eight...... It's not good, this is the 28th Star Killing Array on Sunday! ”
Just as Ji was full of fear and let out a sharp and piercing cry of sorrow, the twenty-eight star lamps bloomed at the same time, and countless fireballs immediately fell, quickly submerging them and turning them into ashes.
"Yuantu ......" Xun Chen was the closest to Feng Ji, and just saw this thrilling scene, he was suddenly frightened and inexplicable, and his feet were paralyzed.
At the same time, the earth shook violently, and in the ruins of the crumbling city walls of all sides of Bishui Pass, many towering giant trees rose from the ground, standing tall and majestic, and quickly besieged all the soldiers of the Yuan family's army.
In the depths of the green branches and leaves, a pair of black hole eyes flashed one after another, and the essence shot sharply, turning into invisible arrows, Xun Chen bore the brunt of it, and his whole body was pierced, and he was wounded by thousands of holes in an instant, and he died on the ground.
