Chapter Twenty-Six: The Troubled Times: The Fire Burns Gushan
Early in the morning, Zhong Roulan stood outside the tent in a strong suit and stretched her waist, took a deep breath of the fresh air in the valley, and instantly felt that it was still a little sweet, and the pear came out of the tent with a black face and put on a cloak for Zhong Roulan, and said angrily: "Sanniang, the dew in the valley is heavy and cold." ”
Seeing the stinky face of the pear, Zhong Roulan said scoundrelly: "Smile!" Are you still so unhappy about such a beautiful scenery in this valley? ”
"O my young lady! You are too willful, you told the second lady that you want to go back to Dongyang, how did you turn around and come to the front of the army, didn't you see that the young master saw you in the barracks the day before yesterday and almost didn't fall. "Crisp pear completely ignored Zhong Roulan's rogue behavior.
"Why go back to Dongyang, it's not fun there, my father calculates all day long, Brother Fan also has a bunch of things hidden in his heart, it's boring, how fun it is here, you can enjoy the scenery while watching them fight, how good! If you want to go back, I haven't played enough! Zhong Roulan came out with a posture of a dead pig who was not afraid of boiling water.
"Okay, let's even if we can listen to Shaohou and go to General Ye's army, Shaohou has spoken, if you don't go today, he will let people press you out of the valley." Seeing that Zhong Roulan couldn't move, Su Li had to move Meng Yan out.
"Cut! I'm afraid of him? Sister Haoyue packed up a letter for him, you see Zhongju tried every possible way to get me back, but it turned out that he Mengyan sent Zhongju away with a sentence of 'stay in front of the army and he will keep me safe'. Zhong Roulan said fearlessly.
"Shaohou is also used to you, I woke up in the morning and went to the room to get food, and saw many people coming in and out of his big tent, I'm afraid that the fight will be a few days." Crisp pear said helplessly, knowing that the persuasion had failed again.
"Stupid you, let me tell you, little pear, Meng Yan is making a mistake, I'm afraid that the other side will be planted with a head!" Zhong Roulan said as she swaggered towards the Chinese army's big tent.
Regardless of whether the big tent was discussing Zhong Roulan or not, Zhong Roulan broke in directly, and the people in the tent were all shocked, and Meng Yan, who was about to be angry, saw that Zhong Roulan was immediately deflated, and everyone withdrew with a wave of her hand.
"Okay, you have to leave today, you don't have to discuss, and can you not be so rampant in my army, I've put up with you for a long time." Meng Yan said angrily.
"Okay, second brother, you can deceive others with that little trick, can you still deceive me? When you withdraw, I will go with you. Zhong Roulan casually fiddled with the objects in the big tent.
"What do you know? Who have you talked to? Meng Yan suddenly became nervous, although he didn't plan to hide it from Zhong Roulan, but it was a matter of military secrets, and caution was inevitable.
"Don't be nervous, I didn't say anything, do you know how I found out?" Zhong Roulan looked mysterious.
"Don't buy it, come on, it's a big deal." Meng Yan was really in no mood to mess around with her, she was already ready to fly, and she was very nervous.
"Second brother, most of your soldiers and horses are on the mountain, right? It is estimated that there will not be 5,000 people here from the day you are stationed. Zhong Roulan directly exposed his old bottom.
"I ask myself, how do you see that this arrangement is seamless?" Meng Yan was really full of questions at this time.
"Go and see for yourself how little the grass and trees on the mountain move, and the weather this month, will the wind on the mountain be light? If it weren't for too much attention from the scout on the other side, you and Big Brother would have found out a long time ago. Zhong Roulan said disdainfully.
Meng Yan suddenly became enlightened, in the past few days, he secretly walked around the mountain and always felt that something was wrong, but he saw that Zhong Roulan found the problem when he said this, and regardless of Zhong Roulan's contempt, he hurriedly called Meng Xin in, "Uncle Xin, you immediately inform the mountain not to deliberately create calm, let the grass and trees move naturally, if it is difficult for people and horses to hide, they can move with the wind." ”
After Meng Xin received the order to go out, Zhong Roulan put her arms around Meng Yan's neck and said with a smile: "How is it?" Are you still driving me away? ”
Meng Yan smiled slightly, patted her hand and said, "Don't dare, don't dare, the girl is from my dog-headed military master, who dares to let you go!" As she spoke, a rubbing came out of Zhong Roulan's staggered arms in an instant, and a knife in her right hand knocked her out directly.
Zhong Roulan responded before she fainted, giving Meng Yan a vicious look, and said in her heart: "Meng Yan, you cross the river and tear down the bridge, you are good-looking!" ”
Meng Yan caught Zhong Roulan's fallen body and said, "Girl, I can't let you stay here like this, I only have 3,000 people here, and I may not be able to get out myself!" ”
"Come in!" Meng Yan shouted, and the pear hurriedly came in and saw that Zhong Roulan who had fainted was not nervous, but gave Meng Yan a thumbs up, and after taking Zhong Roulan, he said, "There is still a way for Master Hou!" ”
Seeing that the time had passed noon, and there was a noisy sound of eating in the camp, Meng Yan thought that Zhong Roulan had almost left the valley, and Meng Xin and Meng Huan should be safe with five hundred soldiers and horses escorting, and hurriedly took a few mouthfuls of food and walked back to the table to read the information sent by the General Administration Department and Ye Bohuai.
Zhuo Bailing really didn't hold back, after all, he still took the bait, he spent so long in the valley and mountain, his patience was about to run out, he really deserved to be the first person in the Zhuo military, yesterday let Ye Bohuai march was actually a helpless move, Zhuo Bailing has been like a turtle and ignored it too uncomfortable, the soldiers who pretended to be pretending to be tired every day were tired, in order to be discouraged and Ye Bohuai after discussing with him, he could only take the lead in sending troops to beat him to try the reaction, and sure enough, it had an effect.
"Master Hou, the mountains are ready, and the buckets in the camp are all filled with water." A guard came to report.
Meng Yan nodded with satisfaction and instructed: "Tell the brothers on this side of the camp that they must not be too far away from the bucket at night, once there is a big fire they should immediately disperse and flee to the mountain, and if they encounter the enemy, they must not fall in love with the battle, and go directly!" ”
Everything is safe, just wait for Zhuo Bailing to come over, now there are definitely not many defenders in Xianghu, Ye Bohuai can deal with it, the only thing he feels sorry for is the White Tiger Army on the right, and they are estimated to have heavy casualties now.
"Commander, it can't be so big, our White Tiger Army has not been formed for a long time, the combat strength of the soldiers is very poor, the soldiers and horses of Xianghu are desperately attacking, and the last general is afraid that it will not last long! The commander should ask the battalion for help as soon as possible! Wang Zongqing's adjutant complained to him with a bloody face.
Wang Zongqing's adjutant general didn't know, but he knew, the White Tiger Army was originally to assist the Xuanwu Army on this expedition, but in order to take Xianghu as soon as possible, he had to use the White Tiger Army as a bait to attract most of the enemy soldiers.
"No! Tell the brothers to resist it! After winning this battle, our White Tiger Army is truly qualified to be one of the five armies with Qinglong and Xuanwu! Wang Zongqing rejected the request of the deputy general, first, he could not request, and second, he did intend to let the White Tiger Army polish it in this battle.
Watching the deputy general leave resentfully, Wang Zongqing felt that there was something wrong in his heart, he was originally the deputy general of Wancheng, because he offended the Dahe Quan clan and was exiled to Suomen Island by the imperial court, and then with Xiahou Ming went out of the island to serve Xiao Huli, it was Xiahou Ming's recommendation that he had the official position of the commander of the White Tiger Army, he knew that he was difficult to compare with Xiao Yu and Meng Yan in any aspect, and he could only rely on the tenacity cultivated on Suomen Island for many years to win once, but he didn't know how many people he would lose this time to achieve the name of the White Tiger Army, or the name of Wang Zongqing.
"Commander, it's getting dark, and it's probably going to be ready for a night battle." A voice pulled Wang Zongqing back to reality.
"Thirteenth Master, why did you come out?!" Wang Zongqing was really shocked to see Meng Yan walking out with Xiao Yu's cloak on his head, Meng Yan actually asked his younger brother to come over and pretend to be Xiao Yu in person in order to make himself feel at ease, and he was also convinced by Meng Yan on this point.
"It's all on this, I have to come out for a walk and let the soldiers settle down, otherwise I'm afraid I won't be able to survive the rescue of the seventh brother." Meng Ember said with a wry smile.
"Thirteenth master, Wang Zongqing can't stand you, it's only been less than a day to force you to come out to stabilize the army's heart." Wang Zongqing was telling the truth, he expected that Xiao Yu, who was pretending to be tomorrow, would show up.
"It's okay, I can't fight anyway, just walk around the army, if you can't stand me, it's useless, sooner or later." Meng Shen saw it thoroughly, he and Seventh Brother asked him to come and pretend to be Xiao Yu that day, life and death are fate, no one can blame anyone, but he didn't expect the White Tiger Army's combat strength to be so weak, or even the strength of the Xianghu soldiers to be so strong.
Different from the difficulties of the Right Route Army, Ye Bohuai of the Left Route Army seemed very relaxed, he still sat in the big tent without leaving the wine, just sipping and drinking, watching it was very unpleasant, and the guards he was familiar with said: "Join the army, we are here to go through the motions, let's serve you a bowl." ”
"Bunny, who said we were here to go through the motions, wasn't there a lot of glue in front? I'm thinking about things. Ye Bohuai retorted.
The guard pursed his lips and said in his heart: "Your old man has launched a large-scale charge since he set up camp, and after seeing the military horses of Xianghu moving out of the city, he no longer fought well, isn't it going through the motions?" ”
"Boy, let me tell you, it's not that I don't want to take Xianghu City when I join the army, I'm waiting, I'm waiting for the fire in Gushan, when everyone is rested, isn't it good to take Xianghu City in one go? If you can die less, you can die less. Ye Bohuai squinted.
The sun set and night fell, and there was a sudden earthquake outside Gu Mountain, Zhuo Bailing looked at the brightly lit tent in Gu Dao and felt that he had made the right bet this time, and kept urging the war horse under his crotch to rush over and kill Meng Yan.
At this time, Meng Yan heard the rumbling sound outside the valley road, and a hanging heart finally fell, and finally came, so he hurriedly called someone: "Go and release the arrows and pour the oil!" ”
