When Lin Haotian heard this, he raised his eyes and looked at the river, but no, three huge warships slowly came up in the upper reaches of the Wang River, and on top of the warships, there were wooden soldiers and wooden generals, lamp balls, torches, and bright pine trees, and the three warships were illuminated like a call, and when the warships reached the center of the river in front of Lin Haotian, they slowly stopped.

Lin Haotian looked closely, and saw a chair placed on the deck of the warship, and a person sat on the chair, this one had a golden helmet on his head, carrying gold armor, and a red coat on his back, looking at his face, his facial features were profound, sharp edges and corners, thick eyebrows and big eyes, and his face was ruddy.

This is not an outsider, it is Sima Changren in the "critically ill".

His appearance at this time was full of vigor and vigor, and his face was full of anger, how could he look like he was critically ill? Seeing Sima Changren clearly, Lin Haotian's head also buzzed, and at this time he finally realized that he had been fooled.

"Haha!" Sima Changren on the warship looked at the Jin army camp on the east coast and asked loudly, "Lin Haotian can be here now?"

Shouting by name, Lin Haotian is a person who is willing to be a turtle with a shrunken head, he separated his own people, strode to the riverbank, his waist was straight, his hands were behind his back, and he replied in a loud voice: "Ben Shuai is here!"

Seeing Lin Haotian come out, Sima Changren then stood up, walked to the edge of the deck, and looked at Lin Haotian with a smile.

Don't look at his relaxed appearance at this time, he can sit and stand, in fact, it is Sima Changren gritting his teeth and hanging hard, although the injury on his back is not fatal, but it is also extremely serious, and he can stand up at this time, all relying on the guards behind him to secretly support him.

Sima Changren looked at Lin Haotian for a while, and said with a smile: "General Lin, I didn't expect you to come to give a big gift to Ben Shuai again so soon, you gave no less than 30,000 people last time, I don't know how many people you sent this time?"

Hear that. The noses of everyone in the Jin army were almost crooked, and the killing was not enough, Sima Changren was so humiliating, it was unbearable, if it wasn't for the fact that the warship was far away from the shore, everyone would definitely have been killed by this time.

Lin Haotian was not angry. At least on the surface, there was no anger, and he said with a smile: "The courtesies are still exchanged! Your country gave me hundreds of thousands of people in the Jin country, and now it is nothing to send you 10,000 people." ”

"Hmph!" Sima Changren's face sank, and he sneered: "Lin Haotian, do you really think that my Damu will negotiate peace with the golden thief? Don't dream, it's just a trick used by Ben Shuai to lure the enemy! Do you think your subordinates are really monolithic and loyal to you? To tell you the truth, your every move is under the control of Ben Shuai, haha...... Lin Haotian. Next time your army wants to cross the river again, you don't have to go so far with great trouble, why don't you attack directly in the open?" After speaking, he didn't wait for Lin Haotian's reply, waved his hand to his subordinates, and shouted: "Go back to the camp!"

The three warships turned around as if no one was in front of the Jin army headed by Lin Haotian, and swaggered back to the wooden army camp.

Sima Changren's words. It seems that he is proudly showing off, but in fact he has two intentions.

One. Let Lin Haotian think that Chen Yan and Ma De were both sent by himself, the matter of peace was fake, and it was true that he was fooled, if Lin Haotian believed it was true, Chen Yan and Ma De would die, and the envoy would be killed. It is a great shame for a country, and the matter of peace that the court is keen on can only be done here. Second, divide Lin Haotian's internal division, so that there will be suspicion within the Jin Army, and once suspicion arises. If we do not trust each other, we will not cooperate on the battlefield in the future, and an army that does not cooperate will not be worried about how strong its combat effectiveness is.

This is Sima Changren's wishful thinking!

Seeing Sima Changren's warship sailing away, the Jin army soldiers all hated the root of their teeth, but they were helpless to take him

Ling Wuya had a cold face, strode up to Lin Haotian, and said in a deep voice: "If it weren't for Chen Yan and Ma De this time, our army would not have been tricked, my lord, the last general will go back to the camp and cut off the heads of the two thieves!" After speaking, he turned around and was about to leave.

Lin Haotian frowned and shouted, "zhanzhu!"

"My lord?" Ling Wuya looked at Lin Haotian in confusion, things were so obvious, why did the adults still stop themselves?

Lin Haotian took a deep breath and said, "You use your own brains, if Chen Yan and Ma De were really assigned by Sima Changren, would he find out the matter? When he said this, he obviously wanted to use our hands to kill Chen and Ma!"

"Huh?" Ling Wuya's body stiffened, he shook his head incomprehensibly, and said suspiciously: "Aren't Chen Yan and Ma De the ministers of the Mu Kingdom, why did Sima Changren kill them?"

"The devil knows!" Lin Haotian muttered angrily.

At this time, Chu Lianyu opened his mouth and said: "There is only one possibility, the court of Mu Kingdom really wants to negotiate peace, and Sima Changren does not want to, as long as our army kills Chen Yan and Ma De, then the matter of peace will be stopped, and Sima Changren's goal will be achieved." In addition, if my guess is correct, Chen Yan and Ma De should not know that Sima Changren's critical illness is pretended, and Sima Changren wants to take advantage of the critical illness to lead our army to attack, so he simply deceived Chen and Ma together, this person's scheming is unfathomable. ”

After listening to Chu Lianyu's twists, everyone had a sense of sudden enlightenment.

Lin Haotian asked: "Then how did Sima Changren know that our army would smuggle in from this place this time? Could it be that there was really someone in our army who went to report to him?"

Chu Lianyu sneered, shook his head and said: "Your Excellency, you must not listen to Sima Changren's words, he can set up an ambush here in advance, although I can't guess it yet, but what he said just now must be to make our soldiers suspicious of each other." Once the generals of our army develop mutual distrust and suspicion among themselves, the combat strength of our entire army will be sharply reduced, and this is naturally what Sima Changren wants to see the most. ”

Lin Haotian was not a fool, he pondered Chu Lianyu's words carefully, nodded secretly, and felt that what Chu Lianyu said was extremely reasonable.

He sighed and replied, "That's right! Sima Changren is really cunning, even I almost fell for his trick!"

Seeing that Lin Haotian's gloomy complexion had recovered a lot, Chu Lianyu knew that his words had worked, and said to Lin Haotian: "Your Excellency is wise!"

Lin Haotian smiled bitterly, sighed lightly, and said, "Pass the order, and the whole army will return to the camp!"

Lin Haotian was not enthusiastic about the peace negotiations between the two countries, and he did not want to negotiate peace, but now, he had to reconsider the matter, the battle of Wangjiang has been fought in such a field as now, his own side has no ships, morale is not morale, and there are only 70,000 or 80,000 troops left, and there is an unpredictable Sima Changren on the other side, at this time, there seems to be no other way out except for peace.

The other generals had similar thoughts to Lin Haotian, and Ding Feng, Bi Wu, and Ling Wuya were already against destroying the wood, not because they didn't want to, not because they were afraid of war, but because they felt that the time was not ripe.

With the current weak national strength of the Jin State, it can only support a short-term war, once the war turns into a protracted war, the supply of their own army is a big problem, unless they can attack the Mudu in a very short period of time, and wipe out the Mu King Liu Ji and the ministers of the Mu Dynasty, but this possibility is very small.

Back at the Jin Army camp, Lin Haotian had just entered the Chinese military tent, and Ding Feng, Bi Wu, and Ling Wuya followed.

Ding Feng and Bi Wu didn't speak, they just spoke to Ling Wuya, and Ling Wuya understood that these two were letting themselves meet adults.

He arched his hand at Lin Haotian and said, "My lord!"

"En?" Lin Haotian turned around and glanced at the three of them, Zuihou's gaze fell on Ling Wuya, and asked, "Wuya, what's the matter with you?"

"My lord, our army can no longer fight in this battle!" Ling Wuya said: "When we recovered Changyu and Shangpu two counties, our army's nearly 200,000 soldiers are now less than 100,000, especially in the last two battles of Wangjiang, our army has lost countless soldiers, and its combat strength has been sharply reduced, and more importantly, the morale of the soldiers has been exhausted by the wooden army, and if we continue to fight, our army may ......."

Ling Wuya didn't finish his words, but the meaning couldn't be clearer.

After suffering two losses in a row, Lin Hao's innate arrogance had been extinguished at this time, he walked to the table, sat down slowly, then nodded, and said, "Let's be straight, in your opinion, where should our army's purpose go?"

"Accept Mu Guo's peace!" Ding Feng, Bi Wu, and Ling Wuya said in unison. (To be continued......)
