In the evening, Su Mu and the others arrived, and several people worked together to set off a thousand firecrackers, hoping to blow up all the bad luck for next year, and they were about to eat, when someone suddenly knocked on the door. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Wang Yangming wondered in his heart, thinking about this Chinese New Year, everyone in the army who was close to home naturally went home to reunite, and those who were far away from home also gathered together, who would visit at this time?
He hurriedly opened the door, but when he saw the person knocking on the door, he let out a loud sigh, it was actually Boyan who came.
Seeing that everyone was about to eat, Boyan smiled slightly and said, "I'm here to have a fun too." ”
Several people hurriedly moved a chair to him and invited him to sit down. Boyan sat down slowly, Gu Xifeng sat down on his head, respectfully poured him a glass of wine, Boyan raised his glass, his eyes swept the audience, and said: "Today is goodbye to the old and welcome the new, everyone please drink this cup, I wish everyone all a good New Year, I wish Shanglong good health, I wish the Great Xia country peace and security, and I wish my Northwest Army a victory next year!"
Everyone drank one after another, but Wang Yangming once vowed never to drink again, so he replaced it with clear tea.
After drinking and eating, Boyan suddenly said: "Today, in addition to celebrating the festival with everyone, there are actually things to explain." ”
Everyone had long suspected that Boyan must have other purposes for coming here, but he didn't say it before, so it was inconvenient for everyone to inquire in detail. Seeing that he was about to get to the point, they all stopped their chopsticks and waited for him to speak.
Boyan took a deep breath and said slowly: "I have an important battle order to issue. ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone instinctively stood up, straightened their bodies one by one, and waited for Bo Yan's order.
Seeing that although these people were young, they were all already standard soldiers, Boyan was very relieved, but he pressed his hand and motioned for everyone to sit down and obey. After everyone sat down, he continued: "I want you to raid the Absolute Capital City tonight and kill the Nine Elders!"
When everyone heard him say that he was going to kill the Ninth Elder, they were all extremely surprised. Obviously, Great Xia was already about to start a war with Guqiang, and even sent out the text, why did he suddenly turn his gun and kill Jingjue? Only Wang Yangming knew that Boyan's tough attitude towards Guqiang was just to paralyze the nerves of the Jingjue and the mysterious spy in the army, but in fact, the real target of the Northwest Army was Jingjue from beginning to end.
But Wang Yangming still can't understand, the current preparations for war have not been completed, it is too early to say that a full-scale war, and Daxia and Khorezm said that they will start troops at the same time in March of the next year, and now Boyan wants them to kill the Nine Elders, who are in charge of the essence, once the task is completed, Daxia and the essence will inevitably start a full-scale war in an instant, which is equivalent to starting a war in advance, and Khorezm knows nothing about it, and it is difficult to guarantee that it will disrupt the original plan of the two countries.
Moreover, the Nine Elders had already established supreme authority after many years of elite management, and they must have been defended by countless masters by their side, so how could they be so easy to kill.
Boyan saw that everyone had deep doubts on their faces, but he already knew about it, signaled everyone not to worry, and explained: "Sun Tzu's Art of War has clouds, and soldiers are treacherous, and the most important thing is to pay attention to surprise. The reason why I chose to act today is to catch people off guard. ”
He explained, and everyone understood what he was thinking. It turned out that all the countries in the Western Regions, except for Khorezm, all believed in ****** religion, only Ramadan, no New Year, but the Xia people wanted to celebrate the New Year lively, so the elite people never imagined that the Northwest Army would take the initiative to attack on New Year's Eve. This is one of the surprises.
Boyan has concluded that the mysterious spy within the Northwest Army is the third-in-command Xu Hai, and deliberately set up a suspicious formation, so that the entire Northwest Army, including Xu Hai, believes that the strategic focus of the Northwest Army has shifted to Guqiang. Since Wang Yangming seized Xu Hai's carrier pigeons, Boyan immediately sent a hundred archers to monitor Xu Hai's carrier pigeons day and night, and sure enough, he intercepted the news from Xu Hai again, which was to inform the Elite Great Xia that he was determined to start a war with Guqiang. At this time, Boyan sent these elites to the Jingjue assassination, which must have been unexpected by Xu Hai and the Jingjue, and this was the second surprise.
Xu Hai has a very high status in the army, and if Bo Yan explains the task in advance, it is difficult to guarantee that Xu Hai will not learn the news through other channels. Therefore, Boyan did not personally come to Wang Yangming and others to arrange tasks until this time, and even these people who participated in the task knew about it temporarily, and Xu Hai was even more unable to know. This is the third surprise.
With these three, great things will be accomplished.
Everyone admired Boyan's clever calculations and dangerous moves, but Hideyoshi, who was sitting at the bottom, asked: "Although we people are much more skilled than ordinary Hu soldiers, but if we run for a long time, we will inevitably be weak, even if we complete the task, we will immediately fall into the encirclement of the elite army, how can we retreat?"
Boyan had expected this festival, comforted him not to worry, and said: "After you leave, I will go directly to the Eagle Yang Army, and arrange for the five thousand Eagle Yang Army to be ready to go, and one day after you set off, the Eagle Yang Army will march quickly to Jingjue, and when encountering the Jingju defense army, they will avoid fighting and rush to the capital within three hours." As long as you hold out for three hours, the Eagle Army will be able to take you back. ”
Hideyoshi frowned: "The elite can use at least 20,000 troops to besiege the city within three hours, and the 5,000 eagle army training has not been completed, so it may not be the opponent of the elite people." ”
Boyan was questioned by Hideyoshi twice, but he did not look unashamed at all, but instead glanced at him appreciatively, and said: "Three hours after the departure of the Eagle Yang Army, the 100,000 soldiers of our Northwest Army pressed on the whole army, and immediately launched a full-scale attack on Jingjue. ”
Hideyoshi nodded, and didn't speak again, but in his heart he really admired Boyan's boldness and generosity.
Everyone saw that Hideyoshi, who was known to be wise, no longer questioned, and they all stopped talking, and they all went back to pack their things and prepare to leave, but Boyan told everyone not to leak the news, and not to let anyone else know their battle plan.
After everyone left, only Wang Yangming and Bi Luo were left in the house, but Bo Yan didn't leave, Wang Yangming asked him what else to order, Bo Yan said: "Bi Luo's martial arts are not high, this time it is not appropriate to get into danger, I want to leave her in the rear." ”
Bi Luo was unwilling, but Bo Yan was very prestigious, and she didn't dare to refute.
Wang Yangming was surprised: "Commander, you want to go out in person?"
Boyan nodded: "That's nature." If this battle is successful, it will be possible to defeat the elite with the power of thunder, and for such an important battle, I will naturally lead the troops in person. ”
Wang Yangming had no objection to his arrangement, but hesitated: "If the war starts in advance, the entire Western Regions will be affected by the whole body, and Khorezm will not be able to send troops for another three months, and our Northwest Army will be equivalent to fighting alone in these three months......"
Boyan waved his hand, signaling him not to worry: "But three months is enough for me to take the neighboring countries, and at the same time, the other countries will be nervous and strengthen their precautions against our Xia country, but they will ignore the threat of Khorezm in the west." This is precisely the creation of fighters for our Khorezm friends. ”
Wang Yangming remembered the martial arts of the commander-in-chief of Khorezm, this person is well versed in the art of war, and his ability is comparable to Boyan's, and he should be able to understand Boyan's deep meaning.
But at a moment, everyone came to report, and Boyan reviewed the past one by one, Chen Baxian, Lu Fengxian, Wang Panpan, Xiuji, Shen Qingdai, Su Mu, Gu Xifeng, Xiong Zhen, and even Wang Yangming, a total of nine people.
Boyan encouraged: "The nine of you will become the vanguard of history. The ancients had clouds, nine is the extreme, symbolizing the supreme, you nine people are bound to be able to sweep the essence and make contributions in one fell swoop!"
The crowd shouted in response, and went out and got on their horses.
Boyan stood in the snow, and saw that everyone was leaving, so he left. Biluo stood in place and stared for a long time, watching Wang Yangming's figure gradually disappear, and prayed silently and sincerely in his heart: "Brother Yangming, you must come back safe and sound......"
However, she knew in her heart that this trip was extremely dangerous, how could she be relieved in a few words?
I came out of the city, but I saw heavy snowfall. Around the end of the year, it was the most snowy, but such a heavy snow was really not seen for many years. As the saying goes, the snow is a good year, so the summer people love the winter snow very much. Wang Yangming and the others galloped on horses, covered their bodies with white robes to block the wind and snow, and galloped all the way, leaving only shallow horseshoe prints on the ground.
It took an hour for everyone to enter the Jingjue border, and the Jingjue people knew that the Xia people were busy with the New Year at this time, and even the border patrol was reduced from three patrols a day to one patrol a day, which provided a lot of convenience for Wang Yangming and others. Their martial arts are high, and their riding skills have long been proficient, and they have actually penetrated into the hinterland of the elite without realizing it.
The area of the Exquisite Kingdom is not large, only about one-fiftieth of the entire area of Great Xia, and it took everyone two hours to reach the wilderness of the Exquisite Capital, and they did not dare to ride forward again, but instead jumped off the horse and bowed down in the wilderness.
The grass is declining, low but an inch, it can't cover everyone's figure, but fortunately, it snows heavily in the sky, and the snow on the ground is white, and everyone wears the white robe backwards, revealing only white, covering the red clouds, which is inconspicuous in this white snow.
Wang Yangming turned around and gestured to everyone, and the other eight people stepped forward to listen to his command, Wang Yangming said in a low voice: "Although the elite people relaxed their vigilance, the city gate guards are bound to be ready for battle. We'll have to turn over quietly. ”
Since you want to climb over the wall, you naturally have to count on light work. Among the crowd, Su Mu's light skills were the best, but he also frowned and said: "I think that although this city wall is far less high than the city wall of Juyongguan, it is also thirty zhang, and now it is winter, and the walls are frozen, and we don't leave our hands when we slip, and we are afraid that we will not be able to climb up with our light skills." ”
Everyone nodded in agreement, and Chen Baxian, Lu Fengxian, and Gu Xifeng, who were not doing well, nodded loudly and complained repeatedly.
Wang Yangming said with a smile: "Don't worry, everything is on me." ”
