Several secret guards of the Bai family did not dare to delay, so they quickly returned to the city and reported the matter to Bai Qingyan.
When Bai Qingyan heard that he put down the bamboo slips in his hand, he guessed that it was the old general Cui Shanzhong who sent the news that she was trapped in Jiangzi City to the direction of Yechengguan. At this time... either Yang Wuce heard the news and sent troops to help, or...
Yang Wuce knew that Jiangzi City had not lit the smoke. She guessed that she had other arrangements and was worried. She frequently sent spies to investigate the situation in Jiangzi City. Therefore, the old general Cui Shanzhong wanted to attack the city and force Yang Wuce to lead troops to help, intending to attack the city as if it were a good example.
.
Bai Qingyan was planning to do things about Du Sanbao. She has been sending people to Du Sanbao in the past few days, so it should be almost done.
She stood up, found the secret letter that had been written on the table and handed it to the Bai family guards: "Send someone to take this letter to find Du Sanbao, and no matter what, Du Sanbao must dig it out today!
After taking the secret letter out, he immediately went to find General Yang Wuce's spy. If he couldn't find it, he should not waste time. He went straight to Yecheng Pass and handed the secret letter to General Yang Wuce himself. Xiliang now hopes that the spy from Yecheng Pass will go back.
Report the message, so we will never stop the person who reports the message!"
"Send another Bai family guard to leave the city from the secret passage and go straight to the north. It is necessary to arrive at Bailong City before dark today, tell the guards of Bailong City, and make great preparations after receiving the letter... We must let the spies in Xiliang think
The day after tomorrow they will come to Jiangzi City to deliver food. Be sure to be careful of the ambush of the Xiliang army. I don’t care about how to fight the war, but I must win... Not only do I have to win, but I also have to let the Xiliang soldiers who ambush them to rob the grain.
Go without going back!"
"Yes!" The Bai family guards received the order and took the letter from Bai Qingyan to do business.
Bai Qingyan changed his clothes, accompanied by the secret guards of the Bai family, climbed up to the four city gates and took a closer look.
She calculated the time. Today, the time when the smoke from the western cold cooking stoves was longer than the previous few days...
Could it be... to prevent the smoke from rising twice to arouse the Great Zhou's vigilance, so we have to make rice at noon today and eat dry food at night and tomorrow morning so that the soldiers can conquer the city tomorrow?
Liu Pinggao followed Bai Qingyan closely, but he did not see any changes in the Xiliang military camp in the distance, as if it was exactly the same as usual.
Bai Qingyan turned around and calculated the time since she met with the old general Cui Shanzhong and refused to negotiate on the day of the siege. If Yang Wuce had sent troops to help... he would have come long ago!
Liu Pinggao listened to the sound of the flag, stepped forward and said to Bai Qing: "Your Majesty, don't worry too much. The last general will definitely keep Jiangzi City firmly!"
Bai Qingyan has been working hard to make arrangements these days. Before he arrives in Xiliang for dinner, His Majesty will climb up to the city wall and stare carefully. He heard from Eunuch Wei that His Majesty has stepped down to the city wall and stood in front of the map to see.
In just a few hours, Your Majesty is a pregnant person, how could he be so tired?
"I guess General Yang Wuce of Yecheng Pass should have received the news that Jiangzi City was besieged and sent spies to inquire several times, but... because he was worried about what arrangements I had here, he would be ruined if he sent troops to rescue him rashly.
After my plan and arrangement, I kept holding my troops!" Bai Qingyan turned to look at the Xiliang military camp in the distance again, "General Cui is afraid that he will attack the city tomorrow, so he forced General Yang Wuce to lead his troops to rescue him. They can set up an ambush halfway!
”
The Xiliang Army wanted to recapture Yecheng Pass and cut off the main grain route of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
Liu Pinggao looked at the Xiliang military camp in surprise: "Siege the city?"
"According to my previous guess of the fact that General Cui was slow to siege and not attacking, it was because General Cui was waiting for the food and grass delivered to Jiangzi City by Bailong City. General Cui originally... should have wanted to steal the food and grass, and the Xiliang army was in the hands of the Xiliang army after he robbed the food and grass.
When he had food, he forced the Yecheng Pass to come and help, and Xiliang took the opportunity to set up an ambush." Bai Qing's words were slow and reasonable.
Liu Pinggao nodded, and the battle in Xiliang was alive.
"A person who is so cautious in General Cui will order a siege tomorrow. Are you not afraid of disturbing Bailong City and not being able to deliver food? After all, Bailong City and Jiangzi City are not far away..." Bai Qingyan pursed his lips, and
Thinking about it carefully, "Our advantage over Mr. Cui is that... we know that the next time we deliver food in Bailong City is about the 11th or 12th of this month, and Mr. Cui relies entirely on the interval between each time we deliver food in Bailong City.
Come and guess.”
After thinking about it, Liu Pinggao said, "But the interval between delivering food was short before because Yechengguan wanted to save the people of Xiliang. Now Yechengguan has sufficient food, so the time we deliver food will definitely not be as frequent as before."
"Or it was General Cui who had intercepted the military rations..." Bai Qingyan stared at the direction of the Xiliang military camp and frowned.
"The last general thinks this is impossible! The guardian of Bailong City is a very law-abiding person. Has His Majesty sent someone to Bailong City to order food delivery? He was so full of food... If there is no food, it will be fine?
Send it to Jiangzi City?" Liu Pinggao was familiar with the guards of Bailong City. "Besides, General Qi, the guards of Bailong City, was already disgusted with the people of Xiliang! At the beginning, he wanted to give his Majesty a memorial, but he didn't want to use the food from the Great Zhou Dynasty.
I stopped him to save the Xiliang people!"
How could such a person be so anxious to send food to the Great Zhou to save the people of Xiliang? It would be great if he didn't drag him or not.
"Then..." Bai Qingyan looked up and breathed a sigh of relief, "It was General Cui who invited reinforcements. General Cui would send reinforcements to set up an ambush on the food road!"
This is the result that Bai Qingyan is most reluctant to see.
"Where are the reinforcements from Xiliang?" Liu Pinggao looked incredible.
"There are some cities that the Great Zhou and Yan Kingdom have not reached. The reinforcements are probably from here. There are not many guards in one city, two cities... three cities... four, five? It's a lot!
”
Bai Qingyan's words made Liu Pinggao's back suddenly tense up: "Your Majesty, if the food is stolen by the people of Xiliang, then we..."
Afraid of putting pressure on Liu Pinggao, Bai Qingyan turned to him and said, "But it is also possible that I was worried too much! Perhaps General Cui just wanted to pretend to attack the city and show it to General Yang Wuce. After all, Xiliang is just like this.
Some family background."
Bai Qing's words were not loud, but they were very clear: "General Cui is reluctant to let the soldiers of Xiliang really use their lives to attack the city."
"Your Majesty, no matter whether Xiliang is pretending to attack the city tomorrow or really attack the city, we must arrange it in advance... and strive to lose as much of the Xiliang troops as possible!" Liu Ping stood beside Bai Qingyan, "Even if it is
If they don’t attack the city tomorrow, we must also prepare in advance. When they really attack the city, let them drink a pot! Take a bite of their fat meat!”
