038 The Art of Manipulating

Zhou Lie's beard was cocked, his eyes were as big as copper bells, and he said angrily: "Unexpectedly, the old man actually raised a wolf in his own house, unfortunately, unfortunately!"

"Dad, Yitang is loyal and kind, unlike other Youta clans, he has been working hard in the house these days, and he has not complained more than half of it, please don't be prejudiced. Ayatsuki knelt on the ground and spoke for Jiang Yitang word by word.

"He didn't complain, but he had a wrong thought!" Zhou Lie glared at Jiang Yitang fiercely, then turned his head to look at his daughter kneeling on the ground, and said, "Yue'er, should you ...... too?"

Zhou Lie only has a pearl in the palm of Ayayue, and he is a shrewd old man, he knows everything about the wind and grass in his house, it is impossible not to know that Jiang Yitang has a love for Ayayue, not to mention that Ayayue is beautiful and smart, and it is also worthy of being admired by others, but I am afraid that even Zhou Lie himself did not expect that his baby daughter, who has been pampered since childhood, would be moved by this inferior person who chops firewood in the backyard, with Zhou Lie's class concept, he naturally can't accept it.

"City Lord, don't worry," Qin Yuefeng saw that Zhou Lie was emotional, so he persuaded: "This Jiang Yitang is just a guy now, but judging from the current battle situation, he is also a key trump card for our side. ”

"The virtuous nephew's heart is getting more and more generous, and the etiquette of the ancestors can be left behind, so the 20,000 soldiers and horses under the old man will not listen to the dispatch of people who do not conform to the etiquette system. Zhou Lie said angrily.

Zhou Lie's words were not authentic, Rui Qing beside him snorted softly, and Sima Yang, who was standing in front of him, also turned his head to the side with a cold face, everyone knew Qin Yuefeng's military regulations of 'making military merits regardless of background', this room was basically Qin Yuefeng's cronies, and several of them were 'inferior people' in Zhou Lie's mouth, Zhou Lie said this, which was equivalent to completely denying the military regulations that Qin Yuefeng was proud of.

The atmosphere cooled down in an instant, Qin Yuefeng was also a little angry, from the moment he entered the door, Qin Yuefeng had been giving Zhou Lie enough face, but Zhou Lie relied on the old and sold the old, and repeatedly kicked his nose in the face, finally, Qin Yuefeng said with a cold face: "This general has the emperor's will to manage all the troops on the border, and the policies implemented are also approved by the emperor, and the city lord of Zhou blames this general for violating the etiquette system, so he is also blaming the emperor for violating the etiquette system?"

Originally, if the etiquette system was followed and the superiors and subordinates were strictly followed, Zhou Lie was going to salute when he saw Qin Yuefeng, Zhou Lie didn't know what to do, so he had to force Qin Yuefeng to peel off the skin of that layer of 'human affection', and it was Zhou Lie who was ugly.

Sure enough, Zhou Lie restrained his expression, perhaps feeling embarrassed, and didn't speak for a while.

At this moment, Jiang Yitang made a big salute again, and said: "General Qin, the city lord of Zhou, although the grass people are of the Youta clan, but they have a deep blood feud with the Youta clan, and they have made a poisonous oath to break off with the Youta clan, these days, thanks to the care of the city lord of Zhou, and fortunately appreciated by General Qin, the grass people are willing to do their best to repay the city lord of Zhou and General Qin. ”

"Dad, Yitang really wants to make a contribution, can you give him a chance?"

"Yue'er, do you really like this kid?" Zhou Lie's attitude softened.

"Yes, Dad, my daughter and Yitang are in love with each other, please Dad give us a chance, daughter please!" Ayayue said emotionally, her voice choked.

Jiang Yitang reasoned, Ayakyue interceded, Qin Yuefeng said majestic, these three sides attacked, Zhou Lie was finally defeated, and he had to give in, and said: "In this case, the old man has nothing to say." There is just one point, Yue'er will never marry someone who has no merit or employment, if you make meritorious contributions, if you can't, don't blame the old man for not being humane. ”

"Grass people remember. ”

"My daughter understood. ”

That's it, and then it's time to get down to business.

Qin Yuefeng motioned for Sima Yang to bring up a map, which was a topographic map of Linbo City and the surrounding areas, and then called Ruiqing over.

"Ruiqing, take a look, this map is comprehensive?"

Hearing this, Rui Qing stepped forward and looked at it carefully for a while before he said: "Well, it's seventy or eighty, and some paths can't be drawn at this scale." ”

"Okay, this is the most detailed map at the moment, no matter how detailed we don't have it, presumably Tang Rick will not have it, Tang Rick's army is from the south through Moliang River to attack the city, according to his usual practice, until the last moment will not reveal the number of troops divided into two ways, Jiang Yitang, what you have to do is to find out the distribution of the number of attackers and the siege time of their two cities, if they put the big head in Linbo City, then try every means to drag them down, if Yunling City is the big head, then Sima Yang will lead 20,000 troops and horses to quickly support Xingque. ”

Qin Yuefeng assigned the task, paused for a moment, and then said: "Jiang Yitang has not lived here for a long time, so Ruiqing will be with you, he is familiar with the route, and it is more reliable than looking at the map." After that, he brewed his emotions for a while, and said in a deep voice: "At present, the victory or defeat of defending the city is all tied to the two of you, and it is up to you whether you can defend the two cities of Linbo and Yunling!"

After that, he handed the two of them two military tokens, and said, "This is my Qin Yuefeng's personal token, each of which can mobilize a thousand soldiers and horses, and I will hand over two thousand elite soldiers to you for dispatch." ”

Jiang Yitang and Rui Qing knelt in front of Qin Yuefeng, raised their arms to accept the token, and raised their voices: "The subordinates will definitely live up to the general's trust!"

Jiang Yitang and Ruiqing went down to prepare, Qin Yuefeng gave an order, and the existing soldiers in the military camp were chosen by them, and they were not polite, they each selected a thousand elite soldiers, rectified them, and waited until it was dark, and then quietly went on the road.

That night, I was lying in Qin Yuefeng's arms, he gently patted me on the back and coaxed me to sleep, okay, I know that I shouldn't show affection at this time, and I don't want to sleep! When this kind of sis-mill happens, victory or defeat is just in the past few days, obviously there are a lot of things to be busy, what to do with the plague in the city, what to do with the affected people, how to use the remaining soldiers and horses, how to defend this city, how to arrange troops, obviously there are so many things to do, obviously there are so many things waiting for Qin Yuefeng to arrange, but!

In my mind, there were thousands of grass and mud horses running back and forth, but Qin Yuefeng was as unhurried as the old monk Jinding, patting me on the back in the same posture and speed, almost singing a lullaby.

I really couldn't bear it anymore, so I sat up from the bed with a swish, threw the quilt over my body, looked at Qin Yuefeng cross-legged, and woke up Qin Yuefeng, who was squinting and pretending to sleep: "Say, what is your plan?"

Old man Qin Yuefeng opened his half-squinted eyes and said in surprise: "Why don't you sleep, the bed is not soft enough?"

"Tsk, you're serious! Now the bed is not the point, you promised to tell me your plan, tell me quickly!"

Qin Yuefeng was surprised: "Aren't you here this afternoon?" ”

"It's true, but you didn't say everything," I said, "Your plan is obviously full of loopholes, okay?"

"Oh?" Qin Yuefeng raised his eyebrows, scratched my nose, and said, "What is the opinion of that lady?"

"Tsk, less poverty, there is no high opinion, there are a lot of problems!" I cleared my throat, made a fan, and said: "Look at Ang, Jiang Yitang is just a civilian in the Youta clan, even if he has some understanding of the internal information system of the Youta, to what extent can he know about it? Not to mention that it has been almost two years since he escaped from the tribe, will there be any changes within the Youta? Also, even if the system has not changed at all, then the Youta depends on the talent, and it is unknown what level Jiang Yitang's talent is at and what kind of news he can collect. And Ruiqing, he is a person from Xingque, you haven't known him for a long time, how dare you directly entrust him with a heavy responsibility?"

I said a lot in one breath, and after listening to it, Qin Yuefeng really showed a look of surprise, and said, "I didn't expect Xiuxiu to really have military talent." After that, he pinched my cheek, I was praised, my mood improved, and I couldn't help but be proud: "That's ~ I know more!"

Qin Yuefeng stretched out his long arm and dragged me down in his arms, hugged me from behind, kissed my hair, and inadvertently brushed my stomach with his palm, silent.

I waited for a while, but he still didn't say a word, I was in a hurry, and I hit him with my elbow and said, "Speak." ”

Probably Qin Yuefeng felt that he really couldn't hide, so he said, "I really want to hear it?"

Seeing me nodding frantically, Qin Yuefeng straightened his face and said: "Regarding Jiang Yitang, I have already sent someone to check on him, and it is basically in line with what he said, and now we really need such a person, so we must use him, but he is still a foreign race in the end, and I can't be completely assured, so, in order to restrain him, Ayayue is a hole card, and the other is Ruiqing." ”

"You asked Ruiqing to go with him to spy on Jiang Yitang?"

"This is one of them, and the other is that Ruiqing used to be an apprentice of darts, and he has traveled a lot of places, but he still has the ability to remember the road, compared with Jiang Yitang, Ruiqing is more familiar with the terrain, so this time, he is also indispensable. Qin Yuefeng explained.

"However, this only restricts Jiang Yitang, what about Ruiqing? Can you completely rest assured Ruiqing?" I wondered.

Qin Yuefeng paused for a moment, and then said: "Ruiqing's hometown is Yingzhou, his family is there, and it is my grandfather's house, so it is easy to control his family." ”

Hearing this, I finally understood, Qin Yuefeng is interlocking, using everyone's weaknesses to eat them to death, I know that this is a trick of power, there is no good or bad, but suddenly heard who was doing this next to the pillow, and he was a little stunned for a while, so he didn't respond.

Seeing that I was silent, Qin Yuefeng pinched my waist and said, "What, are you afraid?"
