Chapter 223: The Qin people are coming

Zhang Yu listened very carefully to Si Mang's introduction, and then asked: "This scout prophet also has the law of the enemy army. Or if the enemy avoids our scouts, or the scouts are captured by the enemy, or the voice of the scouts is not transmitted, and the enemy knows in front of the camp, what can I do? ”

Si Mang said: "Where there is a camp, there is a sentry, and this is a warning." Hearing the alarm, its disposal is in accordance with the law. And camped, not isolated, there are reflections on the front and back, left and right. When a battalion is attacked by the enemy, the other battalion will know and help it. And the enemy force is small and cannot be divided, and it must also be the same. It's the law of the Imperial Palace. ”

Zhang Yu said: "If Si attacks the enemy, what will he want?" ”

Si Mang was shocked: "Why did Mr. say this? ”

Zhang Yu said: "It's not true, but I ask each other." ”

Si Mang said: "Whoever attacks the enemy's camp, I will escape the enemy's labor, come from afar, the soldiers are tired, the camp fence is not standing, the patrol is not far away, and the mountain-shaped road is in my hands, it can be covered and attacked." If the enemy has been encamped for a long time, the fortress is strong, the military orders have been carried out, and the soldiers have been safe, it will be difficult to carry out and it will be in vain. ”

Zhang Yu was a little depressed and said, "Yes, it's difficult!" But there is nothing to do? ”

Si Mang said: "Sir, it's not easy to be in Kou Township, but what about the military camp?" If it weren't for the adventure, there would be nothing to do. ”

Zhang Yu said: "There are patrols in this battalion, half of them are on alert? ”

Si Mang said: "Don't dare to slack off." The main camp has 500 people, divided into two places; The minister is in this camp today, and tomorrow in the other camp, and the place where the minister is is on guard. The soldiers are all ready, the weapons are not left in their hands, and the crossbows are all wound. The alarm is imminent. The other battalion was disarmed and lay down, and the arms were relaxed. On the four sides of the daily patrol post, each to the neighboring camp, to see that it is no different. Although he climbed high and watched, the feelings of the four camps were all seen, and he still did not dare to abolish the patrol. ”

Zhang Yu said: "Accept advice, dare to lead!" "Gossip, even if you resign. Si Mang was sent out of the barracks.

After Zhang Yu left the camp, he found that the guests on the city tower had left, asked the guards of the city, and told him, "There is a gentleman who has returned to the city, so he will return to the house." ”

Zhang Yu was shocked, and hurriedly returned to the Huayang Governor's Mansion, and when he entered the door, he saw that all the gentlemen were there, and the few people gathered in the middle were the doormen who sent out the enemy's traces last night. Running around all night, dusty faces, but indignant, the surrounding doormen are also unhappy. Zhang Yu caught up a few steps, and Shi Li said: "I don't mean that Mr. Zhu has returned!" ”

All the gentlemen returned the salute, and one said, "If the gentleman does not return, we want to go to the camp to invite each other." It's really hateful! ”

Zhang Yu didn't touch his head, and said to the gentlemen who were tracking: "May Mr. endure the fatigue again and explain it to me." Then he motioned for them to sit down. The water urn has been placed, and Zhang Yu only takes a lamp and scoops a glass of water to salute.

When the gentlemen finished drinking one by one, one of them said, "It's weird! Those who attacked the camp at night, we all thought that they were Qin people. But we tiptoed away, and he retreated to Zheng Guo. ”

Zhang Yu was also taken aback, and said, "You wait to see it in person?" ”

The gentleman said: "We sneaked on its tracks, looked at it straight south, and our hearts were very strange, and we went straight for thirty miles, and saw it go to the city of Zheng Guo without a trace. When the sky is clear, and the people have no one to come out. Fear of suspicion on the city, but lie in the grass and thorns, waiting for the pedestrians on the road, but go out and return. - It's too late to return. ”

Zhang Yu said: "How many of them? ”

The gentleman said, "The night is dark, and though there is moonlight, it is not very bright. There are more than 100 people. ”

Zhang Yu was a little unwilling to say: "Guohan people? ”

A gentleman said: "Even if you are not Korean, you are still conspiring!" ”

Zhang Yu said: "The Korean people attacked me, it is extraordinary, and I must report it to the king before I have to make a decision." Only now all the gentlemen are with the king to the army, and I am afraid that they will return at night. This matter is not to be known to others for the time being. "Everyone should do it. Zhang Yu inquired in detail about the details of the tracking, but found nothing, so he had to let these gentlemen go back to the room to rest first. These guests did not live in the mansion and left each other. Zhang Yu sent away the reconnoitring doorman, and several things did not go well, and he paced in the court worriedly. Seeing this, the other doormen also stopped talking, and the courtyard was quiet for a while.

In the silence, the creaking of cars and the occasional cow bark could be faintly heard in the distance. Zhang Yu said: "Uncle Tang led the convoy to arrive, and we will welcome him." "This time, everyone didn't seem to be in a good mood, and they weren't very enthusiastic, Zhang Yu only took five guests out of the house, and then came to Nancheng.

Erlu intercepted the convoy outside the west city and did not let him enter the city, but went around from outside the city to outside the south gate. Although the police were met at night, after the police situation was lifted, according to the intention of Xinling Jun, the city gate was still open normally.

There was no help from others, only the coachman who accompanied the team carried a basket of corn to the cart according to the guidance of the Lu brothers, loaded a cart, and pulled a cart away. Fortunately, Uncle Tang brought more coachmen, there were five people in a car, and basically each person could be loaded with a ride after one trip, so it was quite smooth. When Zhang Yu arrived at the city gate, the truck had already begun to be loaded. Zhang Yu met Uncle Tang, and watched the loading of the car on the side, gossiping at the same time. casually asked, Zeng Ji still had no news. Zhang Yu had mixed feelings in his heart. Lu Bojie refused to enter the city, and only ran outside the city gate to run back and forth, and only gave a hasty salute when he saw Zhang Luo.

After the car was loaded, the convoy set off, and Erlu also followed. The cars weren't very good, each with only twenty baskets, and they were already creaking and creaking. Zhang Yu was reluctant to go back to the house, and said, "I'll go upstairs and have a look." Gentlemen, let's take a break. But if there is business, please go upstairs to talk about it. These doormen were originally just following out of affection, but when they saw Zhang Yu say this, they all resigned.

This time, Zhang Yu did not stop on the city tower, but walked or stood along the city wall, from time to time to build a pergola and look into the distance. Before his plan to attack the enemy was carried out, he was counterattacked by the other party, which made him very unhappy. What's even more terrifying is that the people who attacked this time are probably not the Qin people on the surface, but the Koreans at both ends of the first rat.

In addition to providing food, do Koreans still have to contribute? What kind of promise did the Qin people make, and then the king of Han was so determined? If the Koreans completely sided with the Qin, then this war would be ...... A faint despair rose in his chest, and he even wanted to simply fight, and the victory or defeat was up to him, but the remaining reason suppressed this desperate thought: the situation is still salvageable, if Dr. Sujia enters Han, he can say what King Han said.

Do you want to tell Dr. Suja about the Korean sneak attack in advance? He thought about it, but he couldn't make up his mind. In the end, in line with the principle that if it can't be determined, it will not be determined, and it was decided to wait for Xinlingjun to come back. He looked into the distance from time to time, as if he hoped to find a way to defeat the enemy from there, but the smoke and dust rising in the distance could not see the Qin camp at all, except for showing the location of his own camp. Beneath the horizon, I don't know what kind of scene is hidden - are they as anxious as themselves, or is everything in place? Who is the one who rules all this? He found that until now, he had not known who the other party's chief general was: according to Guo Zhongjin, there might have been a marquis, but there was also a mysterious person who had never heard of it before. Zhang Yu's mood became more and more anxious.

If you trace the root cause, the first loss of his confidence began with a conversation with Si Mang. Si Mang showed him very clearly that a qualified officer could easily defuse a sneak attack. "It's not easy to be in Kou Township, but what about the military camp?" Si Mang's words greatly hit his confidence, and he had no reason to think that the strong Qin army would make a mistake on such a matter of common sense.

How can you find the enemy's weak spot and hit it with one blow? He kept asking himself, but there was no answer. Opening a military market in the heart of the enemy was an obvious flaw, but he couldn't catch it anyway. Where are the flaws? How do you get started? He recalled again and again the process of following the elders of the Wei family into Kaifeng: each convoy was supervised by a team of Qin soldiers, completely unable to move. He couldn't think of what he could do in such a situation to surprise the enemy.

Before he knew it, he had turned from the south gate to the east gate. The direction of the east gate is the proximity of the enemy and us, so the military camps are dense. Each barracks was dusty and stretched far away, barely in sight.

Zhang Yu looked out from the east gate tower for a while, trying to identify who each barracks was. The military camp of Dr. Jin is relatively easy to recognize, and a big curtain stands tall above the flying dust. The flags of the other barracks were relatively small, mostly covered in dust, and only a few could show their heads, which should be the camp where the general and the bias were located, but it was impossible to tell who was who.

As he watched it, a cloud of smoke and dust passed through a large array of flying dust and came straight down the city. When I looked closely, it was a military soldier. Approaching, you can hear the shouts of the soldiers: "Military report~"

Zhang Yu hurriedly went down to the city, and ordered the military generals who guarded the city to bring him directly, and there was no need to go to the Huayang Governor's Mansion.

Soon, the military envoy ran to the front of the city and was taken to Zhang Yu by the military guards. The military officer said: "I was ordered by the doctor to see the general face to face." ”

Zhang Yu said: "When the general goes out of the city, he can report to me and convey it." ”

The military envoy said: "Dare to ask for the name of Mr.!" ”

Zhang Yu said: "Cheap name Zhang Xu." ”

The martial artist hurriedly said: "If it is Mr. Zhang Yu, then it can be said." After looking at the surroundings and seeing no one, he whispered: "The doctor has found out that the Qin army is moving the camp, and it is bound to attack." Zhang Yu was shocked in his heart, could it be that a big war had started like this? I don't seem to have warmed up yet, and everything is still in chaos! He tried his best to hide his feelings, and said in as calm a tone as possible: "I will turn to the general." Thou hast passed on my word, but this matter is dispatched by the doctor, and we all obey it! The envoy saluted, turned and left the city, and continued to run.

Zhang Yu tried his best to suppress the uneasiness in the center and hurried towards the Huayang Governor's Mansion. Entering the mansion, he stopped the first doorman he saw and said, "It is appropriate for the military to report, the Qin people have the tendency to offend me, and the doctor has deployed troops to meet the enemy." May Mr. go to the right camp in person and sue Mr. Jun or Mr. Zhongyue. The stakes are so high that you must not speak to others. The doorman was stopped first, unprepared, and when he heard this, he was stunned for a moment before he came back to his senses and said, "Oh! "Just go out. Zhang Yu realized that the situation was wrong, and said to the man: "What do you know?" ”

The gentleman said: "The Qin people are coming, and Dr. Jin will transfer troops to meet the enemy." ”

Zhang Yu nodded and said: "The king is working in the army, and there are many people on the left and right, if it is inconvenient to speak, but it can be said to Mr. Zhongyue." The doorman replied "yes" and went out.
