Outside Zhenbeiguan, Wanyan's handsome tent

Wanyanbi leaned casually on the back of his chair. There were more than a dozen military officers, tall or short, fat or thin, sitting in the military tent. Most of them had a blank look in their eyes. For some reason, they always felt that today in the military tent

There's something not quite right about the atmosphere.

The generals in the tent are mainly divided into three factions, Wanyan Bi's faction, Yan Ren's faction, and Zhou Weiran's faction.

Among them, the Yan people are actually the weakest, with only two captains of ten thousand leading the troops. The main siege force outside Zhenbeiguan is mainly the soldiers and horses of Wanyan Bi and Yan Zhang. The role of the Yan people is to supervise the battle.

In fact, this is also one of the main reasons for the deep resentment among the army sergeants. You, the Yan people, want to dominate the world, and you have to hide behind them and be afraid of death, and let them be the scapegoats.

The first person sitting on the left is Wanyan Bi's absolute confidant: He Mu Dawu. Opposite He Mu Dawu are two burly generals, both of whom belong to Zhou Weiran.

One person is named Cheng Ao. He is from the Central Plains, or Fuzhou to be precise. He is a close associate who fled the battlefield from Fuzhou City with Zhou Weiran. At that time, Cheng Ao was just a guard around Zhou Weiran. In the blink of an eye, he is now

He has become Zhou Weiran's confidant.

After following Zhou Weiran on the run for so many years, Cheng Ao's loyalty is absolute, not to mention his personal ability. Over the years, he has grown into Zhou Weiran's right-hand man.

The other person’s name is Mu Bianqi

, a native of Beijin, although he is a compatriot with Wanyanbi, he and people like He Mu Awu belong to two completely different camps, because he belongs to the so-called Dongting upstarts.

The new aristocrats of Dongting can only get ahead if they rely on Zhou Weiran, otherwise they will be suppressed. This was deliberately done by the Yan people to divide the wealthy nobles of Dongting, which is why the current situation of division within Dongting was created.

The generals in the tent looked at me and I looked at you. No one knew what the main content of today’s discussion was. In the end, Cheng Ao took the lead and said:

"Marshal Wanyan, I wonder why the siege is suspended today?

The autumn air is crisp, the sun is shining brightly, and the view is excellent. It’s a good time for the army to attack the city~

Our siege engines and catapults are all ready, and we only need to wait for the marshal's order to attack Zhenbeiguan!"

Cheng Ao had deep doubts in his heart. Just two days after Zhou Weiran left the front line, Wanyan Bi ordered to stop the siege. It was really puzzling.

Wanyan Bi did not speak, but He Mu, who was sitting opposite Cheng Ao, said:

"General Cheng, as a general, it is your bounden duty to obey military orders. You shouldn't ask about other things~"

Although He Mu's tone was light, it contained a hint of warning.

Cheng Ao frowned, but still cupped his hands and said:

"The last general dare not question Marshal Wanyan's military order, but the battle at Zhenbeiguan is imminent. Every day of delay will give the Liang army another day to breathe.

The opportunity cannot be delayed.

Before he left, the prince had told the general to urge the army to attack the city bravely, but now he suddenly stopped attacking, right..."

Cheng Ao didn't finish his last sentence, he believed Wanyan Bi could understand it.

Wanyan Bi finally spoke and raised his eyebrows:

"Why, General Cheng is bringing out the king to suppress me? I joined the battlefield when I was a teenager. When did I ever be suppressed by others?"

There was a strange smile on Wanyan Bi's lips, as if he was mocking Cheng Ao's words.

"I don't dare! I don't dare!"

Although Cheng Ao was bowing his head and saluting, his ever-increasing tone of voice was telling Wanyan Bi that I am using Zhou Weiran to suppress you.

In fact, people like Xiang Chengao and Mu Bianzhe are not from the same group as Wanyanbi. Although they are both surrendered generals, Zhou Weiran surrendered early and also made great contributions to Mu Yunduankang. Naturally, he felt that in front of the Yan people

Superior to others.

He Mu Dawu frowned slightly, glanced at Cheng Ao from the corner of his eye, and unconsciously rubbed the handle of the knife several times with his palm, not knowing what he was thinking in his mind.

The other generals in the military tent frowned slightly. Why did they feel that the atmosphere of the chat was getting more and more wrong? On the contrary, the Yan generals were leisurely and leisurely, as if the matter had nothing to do with them.

Mu Bianqiu, who was sitting side by side with Cheng Ao, also said:

"Marshal Wanyan, we have no intention of challenging your authority.

But this morning, all the patrolmen

The scouts were not allowed to leave the camp, and the siege army was also stopped. The general saw that many military camps were distributing dry food, horse supplies, and arranging ordnance, seeming to be preparing for war.

Dare I ask Marshal Wanyan, is there any action in the army that we don’t know about?"

This is the focus of Cheng Ao and Mu Bianzhe. Ever since they got up early this morning, they felt that something was not right in the camp. However, Zhou Weiran did not say anything before leaving because he had other military affairs. The two did not dare to neglect.

You can come to Wanyanbi and ask for clarification.

The Yan generals couldn't sit still after hearing this. They looked at Wanyan Bi with big eyes. The scouts were not allowed to go out? They didn't even know the news.

"Haha, you two are quite careful in your observations~"

Wanyanbi smiled slightly, nodded and said, "Yes, the army is about to leave."

"Departure?"

Cheng Ao and Mu Bianzhe looked at each other and said, "We have never received an order to withdraw. Your Majesty never said we would withdraw our troops before leaving."

"Now you've received it."

Wanyan Bi curled his lips: "Generals, listen to the order, the entire army is assembled and ready to march!"

"promise!"

Only a few generals rose up in response, all of them were Wanyanbi's confidants. The other generals all looked at a loss.

Cheng Ao had already noticed that something was wrong and asked coldly:

"Marshal Wanyan, is there any clear order from the king to set out the army? Where are they going?"

Wanyan Bi said casually: "Go to Yanxing Pass."

"Yanxing Pass?" Cheng Ao frowned and said, "Why go to Yanxing Pass? There is no war there."

Cheng Ao winked at Mu Bianzhi, and the two of them were very wary. No matter how you looked at it, Wanyan Bi's expression was mocking them both.

Wanyanbi slowly raised his head and chuckled:

"What to do? Of course I'm blocking your way to escape north~"

"Forehead?"

Cheng Ao and Mu Bianqiao's minds were at a loss. They had no idea what Wanyan Bi meant. What did they mean by blocking their escape route to the north?

"Bang bang bang!"

"Pffffffffffff~"

"Ahhhh~"

"Chi chi chi~"

"Ahhhh~"

The moment Wanyanbi finished speaking, He Mudawu picked up the water glass he was sitting on and smashed it to the ground, causing the water glass to explode.

Then dozens of soldiers holding swords suddenly emerged from behind the screens on both sides of the military tent, waving the scimitars in their hands without hesitation.

"Pffffffffffff~"

"Ahhhh~"

"Chi chi chi~"

"Ahhhh~"
