Disarming Allure

In the evening, the army finally reached a flat land hundreds of miles away from Yangcheng. Huangfu ordered that the camp be stationed here. From here, Yangcheng isolated in the afterglow of the setting sun could be seen in the distance. Full of confidence, as long as Yangcheng is captured and Shuangchengguan is passed, it will be easy to invade the hinterland of Nangan.

The guard of Yangcheng is named Ji Yang. Although he is not as famous as Yu Hengqing, he can be regarded as a talent with both civil and military skills in the Nangan Army.

But after Naihe sent out the battle post, there was no response from Yangcheng. No matter how the Lan army shouted, Ji Yang turned a deaf ear to the bloody [-]th generation of his ancestors scolded by the soldiers, and shrank like a turtle in Yangcheng among.

Unlike other small border towns, Yangcheng is an important hub of war. Neither the defense construction nor the level of defense of the entire city can compare with the previous small towns. It is not easy to attack by force.

Huangfu originally wanted to wait for two more days, use a siege plan to block the food and grass, and force Ji Yang to fight, but an unexpected situation broke his plan.

In Lan Jun's main tent, Huangfu sat on the main seat with a blank face, and behind him stood Yueji and Yueyou with blank faces. It was obviously the summer of swansong, but there was a gust of cold air in the big tent. , Zhou Qian, who was kneeling on the oppressive ground, had a chill down his spine.

Putting his head on the ground Zhou Qian, he didn't even dare to look at the general's expression. There are not many things that can make Huangfu, who is usually heartless, cool down.

Although Huangfu was angry, he didn't slap the table or the bench. He took a sip of the tea calmly, looked down at Zhou Qian who wanted to shrink himself into a ball, and said: "Zhou Qian, as the general responsible for supplying food and grass, But you concealed the lack of food and did not report it, and the food was robbed during the transportation of the food, don't you think, you should give me a reasonable explanation?"

Zhou Qian was dripping with cold sweat: "General... General, the villain deserves death! The drought is really serious, and there is not enough food left..."

He felt that he was wronged and pitiful. During the war, food and grass would be replenished along the way in the captured towns, but Nangan encountered a severe drought occasionally, and there was not much food and grass. The disaster victims wanted to stabilize the hearts of the people, so these military rations were distributed to the few towns that were not seriously affected by the disaster. It was going well at first, but somehow the route of the rations was leaked. Frequently robbed by the Nangan army, Ren Huangfu did not expect that the land behind him had been captured, and Yangcheng in front was still besieged, and a Nangan army would suddenly appear from behind to intercept the grain and grass. The army is coming.

Zhou Qian stammered again: "Small... the villain wanted to find out the Nangan army, but... but the army was like a ghost, robbed the food and left quickly, and the villain sent troops on both sides of the ravine. Intercepted, but until the two teams met, there was no trace of the Nangan Army..." He swallowed, and lowered his voice, "Then...then some people gossiped, saying...that it was the former Nangan Army. The ghosts of the soldiers who were defeated by us are playing tricks, the villain is afraid of disturbing the morale of the army, so... that's why he ordered the news to be blocked..."

"Nonsense!" Huangfu stomped the cup on the table, "How can there be ghosts and gods in the world!?"

He gritted his teeth so hard, a group of idiots, they would not report any problems with the food and grass, if he hadn't found out now, he would not know until the food and grass ran out, so why would they fight! ?Just go home and eat milk!

Damn it!This was definitely set up by Ji Yang!He deliberately pretended that he didn't dare to fight the battle and stay behind closed doors, but in fact he secretly sent troops to intercept the food and grass, making himself think that he was out of food, but intercepted Lan's army's food to replenish, and then used spies to spread rumors in the army, just waiting for Lan The army's morale is slackened, food and grass are cut off, and it will be destroyed without attack!

He frowned and looked at Zhou Qian, folded his hands on his knees, and said quietly: "You know, if you keep hiding it for a while, the entire Beifeng Army might be buried in your hands!"

Here he deliberately exaggerated, Zhou Qianguo raised his head in horror as he expected, for fear of losing his life.

The old god Huangfu is here: "After this matter is over, your hundred army sticks are inevitable, but," he paused, and tapped the sheepskin map on the table with his right finger, "I will give you a general discount." The chance of sin... can keep your position in the Grain Prison..."

Zhou Qian breathed a sigh of relief, his eyes were shining brightly. Although he was punished, he could save his life and keep his position. He was immediately grateful to Huangfu: "Please give me an order!! The final general will definitely die!"

Huangfu curled his lips: "Wan Shi is not necessary, what you have to do is very simple..."

Zhou Qian pricked up his ears to listen to the general's orders, and then retreated respectfully.

Seeing that there was no one in the big tent, Yueji sighed leisurely: "General, if you say that you will ruin the lives of our army based on such a small matter, is it too belittling Lan Jun?"

Can the Lan army be brought down by food and grass alone?Then they are all fools!After all, in addition to military rations, there are many ways to find food.

Huangfu just smiled and said nothing.

Yueyou curled her lips: "Don't say that, how could you be so grateful to Dade Zhou ago? He would even die..."

Yue Ji was more straightforward, his eyes lit up immediately, and he received: "That's right! It's really the master's style to give a candy with a whip!"

Yueyou's face darkened, this idiot...why did you say it.

Huangfu's smile deepened: "By the way, Yueji, I have something to do tonight, and I want you to do it..."

Yueji: "..."

On the second day, Zhou Qian went to the previous town to transport grain and grass as usual, passing through the Phoenix Valley, and was attacked again by the Nangan Army. Although there were more guards this time, the Nangan Army came and went like the wind. After robbing the grain and grass, they fled into the valley , Zhou ago sent two armies to intercept at both ends of Gutou and Guwei, but nothing was found.

When Yueji returned to the main tent, Huangfu was holding his green sleeves around his waist, and the two of them were whispering to each other.

Yueji's face was slightly red, but he didn't avoid it. He just knelt down straight and stared at the ground: "I tell you, master! I just went to investigate the Phoenix Valley, and I found that there were several stones scattered last night. There are traces of deviation on the ground, and my subordinates pried those pieces of ground, and found that there is a secret passage underneath, which is very cleverly hidden!"

Huangfu smiled, kissed Luxiu's cheek lightly, and said leisurely: "Is that really the case..."

After writing down the military order, he turned his head and ordered Yueyou, who was standing behind him as a guard: "Send a secret order to General Zuo Hezhen, tell him to bring along a group of troops, pretend to be the main force and continue to call for battle at the gate of Yangcheng. As for Zhou Qian, Bring the people from the tenth brigade to transport the grain, and the real main force of our army is directly transferred to the Phoenix Valley to hide. As soon as the Nangan army has the momentum to grab the grain, it will immediately suppress it and directly attack the city from the secret passage! Take down Yangcheng in one fell swoop!"

Yueyou lowered his head and was about to retreat, Huangfu added leisurely: "I want you to tell Hezhen the whole plan in detail," he squinted his eyes, and said with a pun, "After all, he is a veteran of two dynasties, he should What to do...it's very clear."

As soon as Yueyou stepped out of the tent, Huangfu hugged Luxiu affectionately, pressed his head against his chest, and stroked his smooth hair, making Luxiu giggle, Huangfu's lips The corners are slightly hooked, and from time to time, he said a few ambiguous and teasing words, but there was a little calculation in his eyes.
