You Wenzhi whispered: "The commander should keep this person... This Cui Dunli is a descendant of the Boling Cui family. He has a long history of family education and is especially good at the art of war. Even if he is just standing outside the camp gate, he will
, if he discovers any clues, it may ruin the commander-in-chief's affairs."
At this time, if we send out fast horses, we can still catch up in time and capture Cui Dunli.
Chai Zhewei was entangled in his heart, hesitating again and again, and finally gave up, shaking his head and saying: "But once we capture this person, it will definitely make the East Palace wary, and even what we have planned will be exposed instantly, and the gain will not be worth the loss. Besides, he is only standing outside the camp gate.
You may not be able to notice anything wrong in a while. If he doesn't notice anything, but I detain him in the army, wouldn't he be asking for trouble? This is not feasible. "
You Wenzhi couldn't say anything anymore and could only sigh secretly.
I thought to myself that this commander is really scheming and has no courage. The time has come, why do we need so many scruples? We only need to detain Cui Dunli, and it won't take long. Even if the East Palace knows the situation, so what?
?
Is it possible that the prince dared to send troops to wipe out the Zuo Tun Guards when they stood still? Even if he dared, how could he have enough troops to come and wipe out the more than 50,000 Zuo Tun Guards?
But once Cui Dunli discovered something wrong with Zuo Tunwei and went back to report it, so that the Xuanwu Sect would be more alert, then the chance of success here would be greatly reduced. Even if it finally succeeds, it will have to pay a huge price...
Chai Zhewei also seemed to feel that his decision was not appropriate, so he hesitated for a moment before leaving the camp gate. After thinking again and again, he still ordered: "Don't alert the enemy! If the order is passed, all soldiers and horses should be ready immediately. As long as the commander gives the order, they will act immediately."
."
"Here!"
A group of generals and commanders behind him responded with a roar.
Chai Zhewei put aside his worries and when he turned around, he glanced at the Youtun Guards who were silent in the wind and snow not far away, and secretly gritted his teeth: Mother! Let you be arrogant for a while, and when I raise my troops, you will be the first to rush in.
Guard on the right side, you bastards will be cut into thousands of pieces!
*****
In the wind and snow, Cui Dunli left the Zuotunwei camp and walked quickly without looking back. He did not look back until he was one mile away, and then he said to the officer beside him: "Don't stop at your feet. Look back to see if anyone is following you."
The subordinate officer didn't understand what he meant, but he didn't ask. He just walked forward and glanced back a few times: "The wind and snow are very heavy. There is no one following you near, but I don't know who is far away."
In such a heavy snowstorm, the footprints on the ground will be lost in a short time. If you want to follow, you have to get close. If you can't even catch the shadow of the other party, it will be easy to lose. So if someone is following, you must be close.
I turned around several times in a row and didn't find anything, so it's probably because no one was following me.
Cui Dunli took a deep breath, looked back and saw that there was indeed no one in the wind and snow, so he said: "Speed up the speed and get to the right guard as soon as possible."
It was freezing cold, but just now the middle coat under his official robe was soaked with cold sweat...
The atmosphere in Zuotunwei is really weird.
Although his soldiers were no different, if Chai Zhewei had any treacherous thoughts, how could he make it clear to his soldiers? Therefore, the soldiers knew nothing and only obeyed orders, but they were ignorant of the ultimate purpose of the orders.
But the movement at the armory was anything but normal. You could hear the soldiers chanting some strange slogans, which were terms used when assembling the ladder... The duties of the left and right guards were to guard the Xuanwu Gate, and they only had to guard the entrance under the city.
Just cooperate with the Beiya Imperial Guards on the city. Where is the need for the ladders used to attack the city?
If the prediction is correct, Chai Zhewei may have defected to the Guanlong Clan, and even made an appointment to start a rebellion, and then captured the Xuanwu Clan...
The moment Yu Chai Zhewei looked at each other, he even thought that he would definitely die.
Obviously Chai Zhewei had suspected that he had heard the slogan of assembling ladders at the armory, and inferred from this that Zuo Tunwei had evil intentions.
, and relying on the Xuanwu Gate and occupying all the geographical advantages, it is extremely difficult to capture it.
There is a big difference between suddenly raising troops to attack the city when everyone is unprepared, and being on guard inside Xuanwu Gate and having to attack forcefully. Therefore, if Cui Dunli is left in the Zuotunwei camp, he will not be able to
Go back and report the news, and the Imperial Guards in charge of Beiya will strengthen their vigilance. The chances of success are very high.
Fortunately, Chai Zhewei was a man of great ambition and talent but lacked courage. He did not dare to arrest or kill Cui Dunli before the incident. To put it nicely, he was afraid of alerting the enemy. After all, it was not certain whether Cui Dunli had discovered Zuo Tunwei's evil intentions. To put it crudely, he was the leader.
Both sides of the rat have no courage. They covet the merits of Conglong, but they are unwilling to take risks and pay too high a price...
If only someone else was in charge of Zuotunwei, Cui Dunli would not be able to leave today.
In the wind and snow, Cui Dunli almost jogged all the way, and finally arrived at the Youtun Guards Camp. In front of the gate, more than a dozen soldiers had already strung their bows and unsheathed their swords, staring eagerly at the figures walking out of the wind and snow.
"Stop anyone who comes!"
"The military camp is a powerful place, and any trespassers will be killed without mercy!"
Under the light of the camp gate, the sharp triangular arrow clusters and the sharp horizontal knives exuded a cool light. Cui Dunli and others were not even dozens of steps away from the camp gate when they were shouted down by the soldiers. Then more than ten soldiers came to the camp gate.
Then he jumped out vigorously, rushed to Cui Dunli and others, took out his sword from its sheath, and shouted loudly: "Who is coming?"
Cui Dunli revealed his identity and explained his purpose, but the soldiers did not relax at all. He received another prince's edict and said in a cold voice: "You wait here, step forward, and kill without mercy!"
Two people rushed back to the camp to report the news to Gao Kan. The others stood in the wind and snow, forming a semicircle around Cui Dunli and others. They all watched eagerly. As long as Cui Dunli and others made the slightest move, they would definitely be killed.
He swooped forward, swords and axes coming out.
The subordinate officer beside him swallowed his saliva, and his face turned a little pale whether from cold or fright. He whispered: "Cui Shilang, are the right guards going too far? We are here to deliver the order, and we are not thieves.
Why do we need to be so prepared?"
Cui Dunli snorted and said nothing.
Soldiers should have a sharp spirit and not compromise or surrender, whether they are facing powerful enemies or powerful people. Especially in important military camps, this sharpness must be vividly displayed. Only in this way,
Only then can we cultivate the temperament of an army that is forge ahead and kill with iron blood.
Compared with the messy Zuo Tunwei, the Right Tunwei has the character of a strong army!
The military camp is an important place and one cannot trespass without permission. If anyone approaches without obeying orders, no matter what their identity is, they will be killed without mercy! The Youtunwei military camp in front of you has quite a bit of the temperament of Xiliu Camp...
Not long after, Gao Kan, the general of the Youtun Guard, led a group of soldiers under his command and walked out quickly despite the heavy snow. They came to Cui Dunli and saluted with clasped fists: "General Gao Kan, please see Cui Shilang!"
Cui Dunli nodded slightly, then took out the edict, and Gao Kan knelt down on one knee to receive it.
After receiving the edict and reading it carefully, Gao Kan put it in his arms and said: "The weather is very cold and there is heavy snow in the sky. Cui Shilang might as well go into the camp and sit for a while, drink a cup of hot tea and then return to the palace to resume his duties."
Cui Dunli shook his head and said: "The situation is urgent, how dare we delay? However, I still have to give instructions separately..."
At this point, he paused, Gao Kan understood, and quickly stepped back, ordering the soldiers around him to retreat ten steps away, and then said: "I wonder what Mr. Cui's orders are?"
The Ministry of War is Fang Jun's base, Cui Dunli is Fang Jun's right-hand man, and Youtunwei is Fang Jun's subordinate. Therefore, although they don't meet much, they can completely trust each other.
Therefore, Cui Dunli did not beat around the bush and said straightforwardly: "I just went to Zuotunwei to convey the order and saw him gathering soldiers and assembling ladders. It seems that he has done something illegal."
Unexpectedly, Gao Kan didn't seem to be too surprised. He just frowned and whispered: "Cui Shilang can confirm?"
Cui Dunli said: "Nine times out of ten."
Gao Kan nodded heavily and said: "Don't worry, Minister Cui. When our commander left the capital, he told the general to guard the Xuanwu Gate with his own strength. Not only could he not count on anyone, but he also had to beware of Zuo Tun.
Guard... Therefore, since the Guanlong clan gathered the rebels this evening, the general has ordered the army to be ready to fight at any time! As long as the Zuotun Guards make any changes, they will attack with all their strength and defeat them in one fell swoop!
"
It turns out that Fang Jun was prepared for a rainy day and had already anticipated it!
Cui Dunli, who admired and respected Fang Jun, nodded, but then raised his eyebrows and asked: "The right guard only has half of the army left with less than 20,000 people, while the left guard has more than 50,000 people. The soldiers and horses are strong and ready.
It's enough. Once launched, it will be a thunderous force! Under such circumstances, the general is still confident to defeat it and secure Xuanwu Gate?"
