52, feint plan
Niu Lingguo's capital suffered this catastrophe, Princess Yuping fled to Lihai Villa in a hurry, and saw her favorite lover, because now she is in danger, the princess has no passion to chirp with the owner of the village, the princess came to the manor and saw the owner of the village greeted out, feeling as if she had grabbed a life-saving straw in despair, and she threw herself into the arms of the owner and cried sadly, the owner hugged the princess Yuping in his arms, and suddenly found that her condition was cured.
The owner felt that it was imperative to go to the valley and inform the scholars of the changes that had taken place in the king's capital. Without further ado, after arranging the affairs of the manor, the owner hurried to the river valley with Princess Yuping, Wei Xiong and Wanqiu women.
From Lihai Manor to Xuantan River Valley, you also have to go through the cave that enters the manor from the ravine, after walking out of the cave, and then bypass those ravines, and then in the dense forest, copy the trail and cross Yunmeng Mountain, and come to the valley city under Yunmeng Mountain, Princess Yuping led everyone into the valley city, and after a short rest in the valley city, she continued to rush to the place where the scholar king was stationed in the hinterland of the river valley. As soon as Princess Yuping saw the scholar king, she immediately cried silently, the scholar king felt bad, and hurriedly asked Wanqiu about the situation, Wanqiu told the king what happened to the capital, and the scholar king suddenly felt dizzy, it was his own negligence, and he did not track Xia Yu's whereabouts after abducting Wanchun in his own country, and now he is unprepared for plotting, and the situation is already very bad. In order not to cause the scholar king to ask about the origin of the owner and Wei Xiong, Wanqiu lied to the king because he took the princess on the way to retreat, and fled into the Lihai Villa in a panic, and got the help of the owner, and now the owner of the village and the head of his family escorted the princess to the river valley to meet the king, so that the king knew the current bad situation in the capital of the kingdom.
The scholar king was extremely sad in his heart, not only was the capital of his kingdom attacked by Xia Yu, but his mother had also died, and now he couldn't take care of his tail. King Shusheng felt that it was now necessary to defeat Miao Wen, who had entered the river valley as soon as possible, and then return to China as soon as possible to recapture his capital and bury his mother as a filial piety.
Prime Minister Miao Wen set up the army of the Cuizhu Kingdom opposite the military camp of King Scholar, the old abbot of Cuibai Mountain instructed Prime Minister Miao Wen to press the troops first to observe the movements of the other party's sergeants, Prime Minister Miao Wen is in this river valley, and now he feels like sitting on pins and needles, because the Queen Mother is still in the hands of the enemy, there is no news at present, and Prime Minister Miao Wen, who has not seen the Queen Mother for many days, looks sluggish and thin. Because the guqin played by the old Taoist invited by the enemy army really frightened Prime Minister Miao, so without the permission of the old abbot, Prime Minister Miao did not dare to act rashly. The old abbot told Prime Minister Miao that this guqin was originally the treasure of his mountain temple, and he knew the power of this guqin. But for this guqin to work, it can only be done in an open area. Therefore, the old abbot concluded that the scholar king was instructed by the old Tao to lead Prime Minister Miao's army into the open area of the river valley, and then he took out his guqin and played it again.
King Scholar originally wanted to observe for a period of time to further understand whether Miao Wen had any way to deal with Miao Wen's return after the defeat. But now, based on the dire state of the capital, he couldn't afford to delay any longer. So the scholar king reported the current situation to Hongyang Lao Dao. Because he had the guqin in his hand and didn't have to work hard to defeat Miao Wen's army, Hongyang Lao Dao confidently said to the scholar king that he didn't have to worry too much, after defeating Miao Wen, he could use the same method to make Xia Yu, who attacked the capital, suffer a crushing defeat. Hongyang Lao Dao knew that the scholar king was still in a hurry to rush back to the capital, and after the victory, he would bury his mother, who had not died hard.
The old Taoist of Hongyang instructed the scholar king to take the initiative to attack Miao Wen's army first, but only allowed to lose, not win, and then pretended to be defeated and retreated, introduced Miao Wen's army into the middle of the river valley, and then asked him to play the guqin to clean up Miao Wen's generals. He deduced that after Miao Wen achieved a heavy defeat, he led his troops to the river valley because he was afraid that the army of the scholar king would take advantage of the situation to attack the capital of their kingdom from the Zizhu Valley. So Miao Wen hurriedly returned after sending the king who was exchanged for the queen mother back to the capital.
In order to start the war in the river valley as soon as possible, the scholar king arranged for the little-known Wei Xiong to lead an army to call the war first. After Wei Xiong, who was very stout, received the order, he was very excited, and felt that after he came to the river valley, because he did not have the opportunity to spend his energy on the Wanqiu woman, he had nowhere to use his strength, so he saw her pick up a big knife, step on the horse and rush out with the troops.
Wei Xiong lined up the army in front of Miao Wen's barracks and began to shout and curse, asking Miao Wen to come out and die quickly. Finding that the enemy army was coming to challenge, the old abbot told Miao Wen to send troops to meet the battle, and if the enemy was defeated and retreated, he would immediately lead the army to advance to the river valley. The old abbot knew that he had to have a battle with the old man in the open area of the river valley in order to settle the grievances between them.
Prime Minister Miao Wen decided to send Guan Xiong to meet the battle, this Guan Xiong general because of the defeat of the river valley, Gucheng has been in the hands of the enemy, he has been stationed in Gucheng for a long time, and has a deep affection for Gucheng. General Guan led his troops out of the barracks, and before he could stabilize his position, the invincible Wei Xiong rushed over with his broadsword, this guy may have forgotten the explanation of the scholar king, or maybe he wanted to show his ability in front of everyone. With all his strength, he raised his big knife and slashed at General Guan Xiong. General Guan hurriedly picked up the handle of the knife in his hand to resist, but was cut off by Wei Xiong, who was full of strength, Wei Xiong circled the horse, picked up the big knife again, and prepared to stop General Guan and cut off the horse, General Guan, who had been on the battlefield for a long time, found that the momentum was not good, and hurriedly turned the horse's head, returned to the barracks, and was defeated.
King Scholar did not order the army to take the opportunity to chase and kill, because his goal was not to win, so he had to withdraw his troops. Wei Xiong did not go to war according to the orders of the scholar king, and the scholar king did not reproach Wei Xiong, feeling secretly happy, and inadvertently, his kingdom army had another fierce general.
According to the old abbot's speculation, the scholar king sent troops to challenge this time to achieve the effect of defeat and retreat, but he didn't know that Guan Xiong sent troops to fight but was defeated by Wei Xiong, who had never shown his face. This made Prime Minister Miao Wen a bit of a monk, confused. The old abbot warned Prime Minister Miao that he must calm down, he must not mess up the phalanx, the enemy will come again, and the next time he comes, the local army will be defeated and retreat no matter what, the old abbot observed that when Wei Xiong was in the decisive battle with General Guan, this guy was in a hurry to show himself, and he was a brave and unscrupulous guy.
The anxious scholar king did not discuss with the master again, and in the early morning of the next day, he asked the young woman of the shop who followed him to the river valley to go out with Du Yang to challenge, and the scholar's intention was obvious, he wanted to send the young woman of the shop to stimulate Prime Minister Miao Wen. The young woman of the shop is a little timid, although she also has a certain amount of martial arts, but to be able to go to the battlefield of soldiers and horses, there are still certain shortcomings, this Du Yang is also a weak person, when he was a child, he also studied martial arts, but because Du Yang did not have a certain understanding in this regard, so he also learned to give up halfway. Although the two were a little timid, the king wanted them to go and send troops to fail, not that they had to win, so they didn't feel any pressure. It's a big deal that after luring Miao Wen's generals out, he will be defeated immediately if he doesn't make a move.
When the red sun in the east had just shown a smiling face, the scholar king ordered Du Yang and the young woman of the shop to send troops to challenge, because this time it was necessary to fail, and the scholar king learned the lesson of Wei Xiong last time in order to fail and did not fail, and instructed any soldiers not to help in this battle, but to prepare for defeat and retreat. Du Yang and the young woman of the shopkeeper each rode a war horse, held weapons, and walked out of the barracks with a team of soldiers. Because after all, they were afraid, Du Yang and the young woman of the shopkeeper did not dare to enter the place closer to the Miao Wen military camp. They halted their armies and went to war where they felt they were absolutely safe. The enemy's army came to challenge so early, to the surprise of Prime Minister Miao Wen, who was worried that something bad would happen, and hurriedly came out to watch, and found that it was the woman who had opened an inn in the capital and brought a man to call for war, Prime Minister Miao felt that this time the army was none other than General Lei Hong who was already in the barracks, because General Lei Hong was teased by this woman and had been deeply affected, because of this woman, General Lei has now been ordered by the king to destroy his male function, General Lei Hong will be extremely angry when he sees this woman, Maybe in order to relieve the hatred in his heart, he will fight to kill, and as a result, this woman's life will be killed.
When Prime Minister Miao Cheng was thinking about what to do, General Lei Hong, who walked out of the barracks, had found that the young woman of the shop was calling for war on the opposite side, and General Lei Hong was already angry at this time, and his eyes were red, and he did not wait for Prime Minister Miao to arrange the order, so he immediately took his own weapon, rode his war horse, and rushed towards the young woman of the shop, the young woman of the shop did not expect that the old friend was also in the river valley, and knew that she had caused him a lot of damage, and the young woman of the shop also knew that General Lei Hong was powerful, and she was suddenly trembling with fright.
Seeing that General Lei, who was blood-red and red-eyed, was about to rush close to her, the young woman of the shop knew that she could not have any illusions about Du Yang's ability to protect herself at this time, she hurriedly turned the horse's head and fled in a hurry, General Lei Hong chased closely, seeing this formation, Du Yang was already sitting on the back of the horse and was stunned. Because the scholar king had ordered in advance, no one was allowed to go to answer it, so everyone could only watch Lei Hong chase the young woman of the shop and run deep into the river valley.
