Chapter 5 Strike and Recuperate
After Wei Ming told Emperor Ding of the Jin Yuan Dynasty about the meeting with Lei Ming, Wang Ding sat on the chair behind the long bookcase in the study and sat for a long time without responding. Wei Ming waited impatiently and was about to leave, Wang Ding suddenly sighed and said: "Thousands of calculations, I didn't calculate that there would be a thunderclap, it seems that the battle with Haotian can't go on." ”
"Oh, how do you say that?" Wei Ming looked surprised, not knowing why Wang Ding suddenly came to this conclusion.
Wang Ding stood up from behind the desk, paced two steps, and said: "First, although the Thundering Army is small, it is very fine, and it consumes a lot of troops to fight them, but it does not get much, only a little bit of Baihe; ”
Wei Ming listened, lowered his head and pondered, from Yangming in the southwest of the Jin Yuan Dynasty to Wuji, all the way is more than a thousand kilometers full of rolling hills, there are no big towns, to increase troops and send food again, it is indeed a huge loss, not to mention that the hard bone of Lei Ming may not be able to gnaw down. Thinking of this, he raised his head and said, "Well, it's really chicken ribs!"
Wang Ding saw that Wei Ming nodded and understood after so long, and was slightly happy in his heart, it seemed that Wei Ming was indeed far inferior to him in this regard, raised his head slightly, and continued to analyze: "Second, Hao Angel can't summon the Thundering Army, and he doesn't want to spend more military strength on the Thundering Army, so he put them in Baihe, and Jin Yuan pounced on Chu Wei. ”
"Therefore, if Jin Yuan didn't fight the Thundering Army, Haotian lost the three cities in vain. Wei Ming clapped his hands, looking suddenly realized.
Wang Ding smiled and nodded, and said: "Third, if Jin Yuan and Haotian continue to die, the two countries will inevitably weaken, and the sick tiger that has not been affected by the war, the Thundering Army, will slowly rise!
"Oh~!" Wei Ming learned a lot again.
"Fourth, we and Haotian are equal in strength on other fronts, and there are mutual damages, and we won't gain any benefits if we continue to fight. Wang Ding analyzed it very confidently, and finally came to a conclusion, "Therefore, if Jin Yuan does not fight the Thundering Army, the war with Haotian will stop soon." If the Haotian Army is not entangled with Jin Yuan, it will turn its attention to the Thundering Army, and when Haotian consumes a lot of troops, it will be an opportunity for Jin Yuan to occupy an area......"
Wei Ming nodded, as if he had completely figured it out, but he suddenly frowned again and asked, "Then Wang Ding, Jin Yuan and Haotian have been at peace for decades, what are you waging the war with Haotian for?"
"Occupy an area, open up territory, that is a grand event that will carry a thousand merits!" Wang Ding was full of nonsense.
Wei Ming squinted at Wang Ding, and said in disbelief: "Is it?
Wang Ding was furious when he saw it, and hurriedly denied it: "Why don't you look like it!"
When Wei Ming heard this, he smiled weirdly, leaned in front of Wang Ding, and said mockingly: "Hehe, it's exposed." Is it because ......" He deliberately lengthened the tone and waited for Wang Ding to continue.
"Ahh After speaking, Wang Ding turned around and hurriedly pushed the door away, leaving the suspicious Wei Ming.
In Haotian's palace, in the study under the dim light, Chu Wei was also analyzing the battle situation, and his audience was only Cai Yan. He was wearing a dragon robe, tied his long hair behind his back, and slowly paced square steps with his hands behind his back, muttering to himself: "Jin Yuan is too weak, and the army of 50,000 was defeated by more than 10,000 thunderers!"
After taking a few more steps back and forth, he continued: "Wang Ding's kid will definitely not throw troops into the thunder again, after all, the supply line in the southwest is too long, and he can't hold it even if it is defeated. ......”
He stopped, looked up at the vermilion roofs where the beams and shadows were intertwined, and sighed, "It seems that Jin Yuan will propose a truce soon! That kid just wants me to turn my attention to thunder." ”
"Hehe, I don't, I don't! Look at who is uncomfortable raising this tiger!" Chu Wei Zhizhu smiled evilly as he shook the ground.
Cai Yan, who was standing on the side, broke out in a cold sweat when he heard this, he had already understood the power of the Thundering Army, if he really fattened them up, I was afraid that he would not be able to control it. Although he is worried, he is not a decision-maker, and can only passively accept the cruel fate.
In White River City, Lei Ming also summoned a group of generals to discuss in the hall under the lights. Lei Ming sat on the main seat in the center, glanced at the generals sitting on both sides, and said: "Jin Yuan's army has been defeated, and the master has retreated, I don't know what you think about the situation in the future?" After speaking, he looked inquiringly at Mr. Wen on the left.
Mr. Wen straightened his waist, stroked his gray beard with his left hand, looked at Lei Ming and Yang Tian with a kind face, and said gently: "In Wen's opinion, Jin Yuan will not send a large army to invade again. ”
Luo Luotian and Qin Hao, who were sitting on the right, were shocked when they heard this, and they both looked at Mr. Wen intently. Mr. Wen nodded in agreement when he saw Huang Chu, and then said: "It is difficult for us to fight, it is difficult for Baihe to defend, and the supply line is long, these three reasons make Jin Yuan give up the chicken ribs in his mouth!"
Huang Chu nodded even after hearing this, a smile appeared on his face, it seems that what he saw is slightly the same, and it is expected that there will be peace here for a while.
Luo Yangtian and Qin Hao showed a sudden expression, and Yang Tian, who was the first on the right, pouted, showing a look of disdain, for him, fighting a battle of tens of thousands of people was a piece of cake, and Jin Yuan actually lost once and didn't fight.
Everyone's expressions were all in Lei Ming's eyes, he smiled, and said, "Well, Mr. Wen is talented, and his analysis is very reasonable. I wonder what Mr. Huang thinks?"
Huang Chu heard that Lei Ming was about to ask himself, so he arched his hand and said, "Huang agrees with Mr. Wen's analysis, Jin Yuan will not call." And Huang also felt that Haotian would ignore us. ”
"Oh, why?" said Lei Ming, looking very interested.
Huang Chu straightened his chest and said very confidently: "Emperor Haotian knew that we would not return to our hearts, but he still let us go to the front line, just to let Jin Yuan have one more opponent, so Haotian will let us slowly develop some strength to deal with the Jin Yuan army guarding the black chicken." ”
Qin Hao figured out the reasoning, and said happily: "Then we can develop in Baihe with peace of mind!" Huang Chu smiled and nodded.
Yang Tian snorted and said, "That's so boring!"
Lei Ming glanced at Yang Tian sideways and said, "Don't think that you are really invincible in the world, if you have more masters, we will be done." ”
"Then I'll train some masters to come out and deal with them, and see who is stronger!" Yang Tian was a little choked, he was becoming more and more like a child.
Lei Ming smiled and nodded when he heard this, he just wanted Yang Tian to be like this. He met everyone's attention and said, "According to Mr. Wen and Mr. Huang's analysis just now, we should calm down for a while and not have to fight, but I am afraid that this situation will not last, because one day they are unhappy, they can send a large army and gather experts to crush us flat!"
Everyone listened with a sinking heart.
Lei Ming stared at the vain hope and said, "If our soldiers have the martial arts of Lin Chong and Liao Yun, Jin Yuan and Haotian will not dare to attack it even if they are autumn! Besides, we can still ......."
When everyone listened, Lei Ming suddenly stopped, and said with an embarrassed smile: "Alas, it's far away." Let's take a good look at Jin Yuan and Haotian's reactions first. ”
As a result, everyone also dispersed, practicing martial arts, and planning and analyzing them......
Time is like flowing water, a month has passed in a blink of an eye, although the residents of Baihe, Baishan and Hexi are worried, but Lei Ming and others are well restrained, but there are no soldiers to disturb the people.
On this day, the wind and the sun are beautiful, the white clouds wander leisurely in the sky, and the birds sing happily in the jungle, which is a peaceful scene. Outside the city of Baihe, there is a large area of yellow rice, with no end in sight, and on the official road sandwiched by the rice, there is a black horse shooting from the north. It turned out that Cai Yan was ordered by Chu Wei to summon him.
The thunder that had already received the spies' report made Meng Fan wait outside Baihe City. Meng Fan stood quietly in the sun, looking down at his figure on the ground from long to short, just as his anger was growing, there was a sound of horses' hooves in the distance: "Come on, get it~!"
Meng Fan took a deep breath, eased his emotions, squeezed out a smile, looked at Cai Yan who rushed to him, and said with joy: "Hey~! Cai Dawei, we meet again!"
Cai Yan heard the thorny shout in Meng Fan's words, his body trembled, and he almost flipped off his horse. He restrained the black horse ten meters in front of Meng Fan, rolled down, bowed down and walked a few steps: "Cai Yan has seen General Meng! General Meng is well?"
Meng Fan was relieved to hear this, and said arrogantly: "Well, it's been good lately. I don't know what happened to the big guard Cai here?"
At this time, the black horse snorted "hum~hum", and a soldier stepped forward to lead it and walked towards the city. Cai Yan glanced back and said, "I have something to say about General Lei Ming." ”
"Okay, please!" Meng Fan flicked his sleeves and took the lead in walking towards the city. Cai Yan secretly felt sorry for himself, and at the same time, he was also glad that Meng Fan would not have close contact with him, so he shrank his head and followed Meng Fan towards Baihe City.
Lei Ming sat and waited in the city lord's living room, along with Mr. Wen and Luo Yangtian. Lei Ming saw Cai Yan enter the living room behind Meng Fan, and hurriedly got up and arched his hand: "Welcome Cai Da Guard!" Lei Ming is entangled in important matters, and he can't go outside the city to greet him, please forgive me for not being careful!"
Mr. Wen and Luo Yangtian heard Lei Ming's words, and smiled slightly, this Lei Ming is getting more and more sleek, if it is Yang Tian, he will definitely have a bad face.
Cai Yan hurriedly bowed down and shouted: "Don't dare, don't dare! It's a great luck to see General Lei!" He had already heard that Lei Ming was a super master, and Liu Jin's left arm was broken in his hand, how could he dare to show a trace of arrogance.
After a few words of malnutrition, the crowd sat down. Lei Ming picked up the cup, took a sip of it, and asked, "I don't know what happened to the guards of Dao Cai?"
Cai Yan was a little nervous, and he didn't dare to wipe the sweat on his forehead, so he ran down his face. When he heard Lei Ming's question, he arched his hand and said, "Emperor Haotian has told General Meng that the Jin Yuan war has not been profitable, and he has stopped fighting with Haotian. ”
Lei Ming, Mr. Wen and Luo Yangtian looked at each other and smiled, and said, "Well, it's a good thing to rest and recuperate, and the people don't have to suffer so much." ”
Cai Yan was relieved when he heard this, and hurriedly wiped the sweat on his face with his sleeve, and said: "General Lei is really sympathetic to the people! It is the blessing of the three cities of Baihe and Hexi!"
"Is there anything else?" Lei Ming smiled and looked at Cai Yan.
"No, no!" Cai Yan waved his hand again and again, and he felt a little nervous when he was stared at by Lei Ming.
"Then General Meng, Cai Da's guards will be entertained by you. Lei Ming still has important things to deal with, so I won't accompany him!
Cai Yan's heart was relieved, as if he had been amnestied, he got up and confessed his guilt, and walked out of the door, and Meng Fan hurriedly caught up.
"Hehe, I didn't expect General Lei to put so much pressure on Cai Yan. Luo Yangtian smiled happily.
"Lei Ming is a martial artist, and there are many people who have been killed and abolished, can he not be afraid?" Mr. Wen also stroked his beard and smiled.
"Am I that terrible?" Lei Ming thought to himself.
