Chapter 308: Water Attack
The breeze suddenly rose, and the green smoke of the river dissipated, and a brown hundred-legged giant insect floated from the water and slowly crossed to the shore.
"The missionary master told him that there was no need to intercept and kill Zhang Songling, and let him return to the camp of the dynasty army. "The gray-robed old man standing on top of the giant insect is none other than Tianxing Gong.
"Why?" the man asked, retracting his sword.
"Now there are wars in Xiliang and Sichuan and Shu, the Three Demon Kings have divided their troops from Sanmenxia to attack Zhongyang Pass, and the 120,000 troops on the left side led by Taishu Hong are difficult to move in Zhongyang Pass, Zhang Songling is here to ask King Ning to send troops to relieve the danger of the imperial city. ”
"Turning the tiger away from the mountain?"
"Exactly!" Tianxing Gong stroked his long hair lightly and nodded slightly.
......
On the other hand, Mu Yuncheng brought Zhang Songling back to Jiuxinshan, and King Ning and others had already personally paid to greet him.
Seeing King Ning greet him in person, Zhang Songling immediately took off his robe and knelt down, and shouted: "King Ning, please send troops to save Your Majesty!"
Seeing this, Yi Xiao slowly helped Zhang Songling up, stopped talking, and then ordered the guards on both sides to take Zhang Songling to the camp tent to rest first, and then discuss the matter with him later.
Seeing this, Mu Yuncheng felt that King Ning's behavior was very abnormal, logically speaking, the situation in Zhongzhou was so critical, he should make a decision as soon as possible, and he should not delay it, obviously, he had some concerns in his heart.
Mu Yuncheng was thinking about it, but Yi Xiao's gaze was falling on him.
"You come with me first. Yi Xiao said, turned around and walked towards the big tent, Mu Yuncheng didn't know what he meant, but he also followed closely, as soon as the two entered the big tent, Yi Xiao ordered the others to retreat, leaving Mu Yuncheng alone in the tent.
Mu Yuncheng knew that he had something to say to listen to himself, so he stood quietly in place, just waiting for Yi Xiao to speak.
"You rescued Master Zhang alone this time, I should reward you heavily. But as you know, you're bringing back a big problem for me this time. Yi Xiao did not smile, and there was obviously a bit of majesty in his words.
Seeing that Mu Yuncheng was silent, he continued to speak: "Zhang Songling was sent by Emperor Gong to ask me for help, and I am the king of Ning and the younger brother of His Majesty. King Qin was originally within my responsibility, and now you don't know the situation in Jiuli, there is a sea of stars in front of you, and there is a grass spirit in the back, whether you save it or not, my heart is like a knife, and I don't want to live. ”
Mu Yuncheng knew that Yi Xiao's refusal to send troops must be unspeakable, so he said: "I understand your feelings, King Ning, but if you don't send troops to rescue Zhongzhou, if Emperor Gong suffers trouble, you will inevitably fall into the notoriety of supporting troops and respecting yourself." And if Emperor Gong is lucky enough to escape, he will also blame you for this. ”
Yi Xiao was silent for a moment, his clear eyes were slightly gloomy, and then he shook his head and said: "Previously, I had sent Uncle Hongqi Jiuli elite 120,000 to Zhongzhou to support, but he couldn't move an inch in Zhongyang Pass. Now there are only 80,000 new troops in Jiuxinshan. And I also planned to lead the army into Zhongzhou before, but now the situation in Jiuli is also critical, if I divide my troops to rescue, the Xinghai Sect and the grass spirit of Kurong Mountain will definitely be caught between the end, and my Jiuli Dynasty army will fall into a situation of no return, if Jiuli is lost, my front army will become a tree without roots, water without a source, and there will be no way to advance or retreat, and I am also a sinner through the ages!"
"If you can defeat the Xinghai Sect in a short time, you can lead a team of light horses out of Jiuxin Mountain, and Pegasus will go straight to Sanmenxia through Cangzhou. Mu Yuncheng said.
Yi Xiao shook his head again when he heard this, but this time it was accompanied by a slight wry smile: "It's not easy to defeat the Xinghai Sect in a short period of time. ”
"It's not difficult!" Mu Yuncheng's voice seemed to be in his chest, Yi Xiao was quite surprised by this, and then he refused to say the trick in the middle, and only invited King Ning to go out for a walk.
Yi Xiao didn't know what he meant, but he also guessed that he must have a reason, so he agreed to go out with him. The two of them changed into simple clothes, and Mu Yuncheng Imperial Sword drove him to Greenhead Peak, which is the highest peak in the New Territories Mountains, and the New Territories Mountain is the largest mountain among the nine new mountains.
The vision of this green head peak is extremely broad, overlooking it, you can vaguely see the camp of the dynasty army and the star navy, but seeing the camp of the Xinghai Sect neatly, stretching for hundreds of miles, like a giant dragon lurking in the valley, Yi Xiao looked at it, and couldn't help but admire its generals for being proficient in the art of war.
But Mu Yuncheng smiled mysteriously, pointed to the Xinghai Sect camp in the distance and said: "It has not rained heavily for a long time since the beginning of summer, we are only waiting for a heavy rain, and the entire Xinghai Sect will be wiped out." ”
"You mean damming and storing floodwater from upstream?" Yi Xiao was a little surprised when he heard this, but then shook his head and said: "Baili is not trivial, you see that his camp is laid out according to the mountain, with clear layers and many entrenched on slopes, once the flood is discharged, isn't it our army that will suffer first?"
After listening to him, Mu Yuncheng drew a circle in mid-air with his finger again, and said, "When I was in Bashu before, I saw that Lu Tianzhang, the leader of the Western Sword Alliance, planned to blow up his mansion with gunpowder, so as to eliminate the heroes and knights who rushed to Bashu in one fell swoop. Now that our army has Wu Qi and the Mu Clan to help, it is not impossible to dig a passage through the Xinghai Sect camp. Then it is only necessary to bury the gunpowder, and do not seek to blow up all its troops, even if they are half killed, they will be drowned by the flood that falls from the sky of our army. ”
"In this way, our army will be able to defeat Xinghai in a short period of time, and then march north to aid Zhongzhou. Yi Xiao's excitement was beyond words, and he swept away the depression in his heart, revealing a long-lost smile.
"This matter must not be made public, once it is known by the Xinghai Sect, all the previous achievements will be wasted. Mu Yuncheng repeatedly instructed, but he was afraid that King Ning would not be able to arrange all his cronies, and the news would be leaked.
......
At the same time, in the camp tent of the Xinghai Sect, Mo Yiyue was thinking about whether the water plan that he secretly sent someone to hint at Mu Yuncheng would be noticed by Baili Yi.
At this moment, Ye Feiyu suddenly opened the curtain and walked in.
"Why didn't you attend today's meeting?" I don't know if he was fearless or what, but in short, his words were full of questions.
Mo Yiyue slowly turned her head to look at him, a smile curled up at the corner of her mouth, and she said softly: "At this time, you shouldn't care too much about me, but should focus on yourself." On weekdays, he rarely goes out and walks around, so as not to be recognized by Mu Yuncheng and others. ”
"You don't have to worry about it. Ye Feiyu glared at him, and then asked, "By the way, Sect Leader asked me to ask you when it will rain this month, and how big the rain will be." ”
When Mo Yiyue heard this, she shook her head and prevaricated: "Mr. Baili knows astronomy and geography, don't you ask him, but ask me what's going on?"
Ye Feiyu quietly approached Mo Yiyue's ear, and her voice was extremely weak: "The sect leader doesn't seem to trust Bailiyi very much, she has been asking me about your situation, and it seems that she intends to promote you." ”
Mo Yiyue smiled when she heard this, and shook her head helplessly: "On the twenty-third of this month, it rains for four days and four nights, and the rain is two feet six, let the sect leader hurry up and prepare tools to prevent rain and moisture!" He said that he didn't care about Ye Feiyu, and walked out of the camp by himself.
