Chapter 9: The Strategist

Liu Xiong was silent after listening to Zhang Jiu's story, and it took him a long time before he came back to his senses, and his eyes revealed a hint of murderous intent: "How is Li Liu now?"

Zhang Jiu clenched his fists, a fierce color appeared on his face, and he said hatefully, "That dog thief is now the prime minister of Qi State, ranking among the lieutenants of Qi State's Xiaowu Guard, in charge of more than a thousand people, living a happy life, something raised by a dog." ”

After hearing this, Liu Xiong slapped his palm on the stone table, and said coldly and angrily: "This liao should be killed, betraying my brothers and sisters, my northern Xinjiang soldier, if he meets him on the battlefield in the future, he will give priority to killing this liao." ”

Liu Xiong has fought for most of his life, and the person he hates the most is the person who betrayed his comrades, in the eyes of this old man, these people should be cut with a thousand knives.

Ye Yan was also angry when he listened to it, but the most important thing at the moment should be to figure out the purpose of the action of the 20,000 soldiers, and reminded him at the moment.

"Uncle Jiu, general, it's not the time to talk about this now, the top priority is to figure out what the motive of the 20,000 Qi soldiers is as soon as possible."

Zhang Jiu reacted, the resentment on his rough face faded, and he turned to a solemn expression, "Ye Xiaozi is right, that group of Qi soldiers is too strange. ”

Liu Xiong immediately suppressed the anger in his heart and began to inquire about what happened.

So Zhang Jiu told everything about the experience.

After Zhang Jiu finished speaking, Liu Xiong looked at Ye Yan in surprise, a look of curiosity flashed on his wrinkled old face, and then he looked at this young man carefully.

"This kid's face is actually seven points similar to Ye Xiaogui? Could it be that he is the younger brother of that kid who was lost since he was a child?"

Although he thought so in his heart, the old man did not open his mouth to ask Ye Yan, but praised Ye Yan's intelligence.

"The little brother is called Ye Yan, right, his intelligence is good."

Ye Yan was not shocked when he heard Liu Xiong's praise and humiliation: "Let the general see and laugh, it's just some clever and elegant halls." ”

Liu Xiong laughed, "I can think of sliding across the ice with a wooden plank wrapped in oil, I guess he is also a delicate person, how can he be considered clever, Ye Xiaozi might as well tell me what you have discovered?"

Ye Yan knew what Liu Xiong said, and he also knew that the other party had the idea of testing himself, so he immediately did not reserve his thoughts.

"First of all, this group of soldiers should not come to attack Yuzhou City before and after, if these people really want to attack Yuzhou, they will not easily give up chasing us, if I am the general of the other party, since it has been exposed, it is better to quickly attack and attack the city with a bang, instead of disappearing now."

Liu Xiong and the three of them frowned, thinking about Ye Yan's words.

Just as everyone was thinking, there was a sudden sound of horses' hooves outside the courtyard, and Shen Qing stopped adding carbon and ran quickly to the door.

The galloping herald turned over and dismounted, whispered a few words in Shen Qing's ear, and then left quickly.

The old man asked in a deep voice, "What's the matter?"

Ye Yan and the others also looked at Shen Qing, and they all thought in their hearts, "Could it be that the gang is attacking?"

"Report to the general, just now the herald came to report that there is a caravan of suspicious people claiming to be Qin, and they want to enter the city to rest and replenish their daily necessities."

Liu Xiong pondered and asked, "Have you ever verified your identity?"

Shen Qing quickly replied, "I've checked it, and there is indeed a Qin State's introduction disk." ”

When Liu Xiong heard Shen Qing's answer, he faintly guessed, so he said to Ye Yan: "What the little brother said is right, this group of Qi soldiers is not for the two of Yuzhou. ”

"This group of people was supposed to be preparing to break into pieces and sneak into the northern Xinjiang secretly, but when they met Uncle Nine entering the mountain, they were startled by chance.

The soldiers wanted to get rid of us quickly, but what they didn't expect was that we had escaped, so the group had to venture into the city to find out where we were going. ”

Ye Yan paused for a moment and then continued: "Breaking it into pieces, there are only a few possibilities to infiltrate the enemy country, find people, find things, steal, assassinate, and lurk. ”

After listening to what Ye Yan said, Liu Xiong's eyes showed approval, and he was a talent who saw the problem thoroughly.

Zhang Jiu and the two glanced at each other, and the two of them didn't expect Ye Yan to be able to quickly analyze the motives of Qi Bing.

Just like Zhang Jiu, maybe they are good at killing people, and this kind of brain-using thing is not suitable for them.

"Little brother is right, assassination, lurking, stealing can not use so many soldiers, the only thing that needs to be used is to find people and things, these two things are full of uncertainty, so it takes a lot of manpower to find."

Now that there is a guess, Liu Xiong's captain Shen Qing ordered: "Go and inform the patrol soldiers to let them enter the city, and then let the brothers in the city pretend to be ordinary people to monitor the every move of this group of people." ”

Shen Qing clenched his fists and left, and then Liu Xiong asked Ye Yan seriously: "Little brother, do you have the idea of joining the army?"

Love the house and Wu, Liu Xiong has a heart of cultivation for this young man who looks like Ye Yi, Ye Yi's death is inevitably regretful for this old man, he is his own protΓ©gΓ© but now he is in a different place, the only thing he can do as an old man with a broken candle is to help him take good care of this young man who may be Ye Yi's brother.

Ye Yanwenyan thought in his heart that he had seen and heard in the past two days, maybe Northern Xinjiang was a good choice.

The Qin State was domineering and xenophobic, the Yan State was inactive, the Qi State was chaotic, the Southern Barbarians were cruel, and other small countries were even more difficult to protect themselves.

Although the wind and rain in northern Xinjiang are now zero, the military and the people are united, and perhaps as long as they survive this catastrophe, they may not be able to move to another height.

"Uncle Jiu has the grace to save his life, the kid should be a native of Northern Xinjiang, and now he is willing to do his best for Northern Xinjiang when the country is in trouble, and he will die."

The old man laughed when he heard this, said yes repeatedly, and then turned to Zhang Jiu and Shikong and said, "Now that you two have returned, it's time for the Death Word Camp to reappear." ”

Hearing this, Zhang Jiu and Shikong stood up and hugged their fists and said, "Subordinates listen to orders." ”

The old man waved his hand and motioned for them to sit down, and continued: "Zhang Jiu, the two of you will select more than 1,000 people to rebuild the Dead Word Battalion, Zhang Jiu will lead the captaincy, and Shikong will be the deputy general. ”

After Liu Xiong finished speaking, he glanced at Ye Yan and said, "Ye Yan is a strategist of the Death Word Battalion, and the two of you are subject to his arrangement." ”

When the two heard this, they looked at each other, knowing that the old man in front of them wanted to cultivate Ye Yan, and they were happy for him in their hearts, of course, there were no complaints.

"The last general commands!"

Ye Yan also stood up and saluted, as the name suggests, the strategists are strategists, these people have a special status in the army, they don't need to charge into battle, they just need to sit in the rear and strategize.

Strategists can decide the outcome of a war with a single word, and these people are often the targets of nations.

Although Ye Yan is only a strategist in the first battalion now, he is also satisfied, just like Shikong treats him, a scholar can often live longer, and a strategist is also a scholar, isn't he?
