Chapter 616: Ning Xin's Strategies, Don't Believe the Prime Minister
Chapter 616: I would rather believe the clever tricks than the prime minister’s words
"Report! There is a man outside the city who claims to be General Zhang Wenyuan, saying that the Prime Minister sent him to help Hefei...General, Governor...this..." "Who?"
The messenger hurriedly came to the palace, but said something that made both Wenpin and Jiang Ji a little confused.
Seeing the two adults looking at each other, the messenger cleared his throat and repeated it loudly.
After finally listening to it twice and confirming that the name the other party mentioned was Zhang Wenyuan, the doubts in their hearts suddenly turned into excitement.
"Quickly...quickly! What are you doing here? Prepare your horses to pick up people!!"
——
Sure enough, when they saw that the man coming from the city was indeed the rare warrior who helped Cao Cao defeat Wuhuan, Wenpin and Jiang Ji, who had been worried at first, finally relaxed completely.
The city gate slowly opened, and a group of soldiers and horses rushed out of the city like flying, and soon stopped in front of Zhang Liao.
"General Wenyuan! I'm sorry that I didn't know that you came from afar and didn't greet you from afar. Don't blame me..."
When the prefect Jiang Ji handed over his hand, his whole body was shaking.
As a subordinated general, Wenpin felt as if he had met a savior after meeting Zhang Wenyuan - he was a subordinated general after all. If he were to command this battle, he would only feel that his hands were tied. Fortunately, Zhang Liao was here.
.
Zhang Liao took off his helmet and dismounted without any nonsense. He bowed his hands to the two of them politely. First, he expressed his gratitude to the two for being able to share Cao Cao's worries and solve his difficulties at this difficult moment:
"Where did the two generals come from? They were able to face Sun Quan's 100,000-strong army without panic. Their courage alone is enough to make me admire them to the extreme. As for the extra courtesy... I just paid tribute to Mr. Yi.
Please come here to help the two generals - governor, general, your army is still under your command...and I..."
Zhang Liao nodded towards the two of them, and quickly followed the previous plan and told them about his plans...
——
Zhang Liao did not sit down in the palace in the city. After all, in order for the two generals to trust him unconditionally, he also needed to cheer up the two people in front of him, so he said:
"I have here a tip bag that Mr. Yi gave me... You two should understand what Mr. Yi's tip bag represents - next I will layout the city's defense according to the plan in the tip bag, and what will happen next
How to deal with the arrival of the Soochow army? I hope the two generals can do their best to cooperate with me. As long as we follow the tips in the bag - we can even have a 100% chance of winning this battle!"
Zhang Liao's words are not empty talk. As a general who followed Cao Cao in the north and south, he can even be said to be a commander. He naturally has his own unique insights into various military layouts. But after seeing what Yi Xiaotian said in his kit, he
Even he couldn't find any reason to refute, and he could even predict what kind of torture and pain the enemy would face if he dealt with the enemy according to the instructions in the bag...
However, when Wenpin looked at Zhang Liao's confident look, he felt nervous from the bottom of his heart... Yi Xiaotian was well-known, so he naturally admired this man who easily managed the Sun-Liu Alliance Army.
Mr. Yi, but similarly, if he believes that he can reverse an entire war with just one tip, Wenpin, who is a practical man, cannot easily accept such a dream-like idea, but on the other hand,
Jiang Ji on the other side was obviously more excited than Wenpin:
"Sure...is it really Master Yi's clever plan?"
"How can this be false?"
Zhang Liao smiled and took out a light yellow tip bag from his arms. However, in order to maintain rigor, Zhang Liao did not intend to show the contents of the tip bag to others.
But even so, Jiang Ji was quite satisfied.
"Prefect Jiang, have you heard about Mr. Yi... Oh no, or about Master Yi? Although I have exchanged letters with Mr. Yi before, but... he is not just good at leading troops in war.
?"
Wenpin looked confused and shocked. After working with Jiang Ji for a while, he still had considerable trust in Jiang Ji. At least when it came to leading troops in war, Jiang Ji was the same calm type as him.
It can be seen that such an unshakable Governor Jiang fell into such a state of surprise after hearing the name "Zhu Yi", which made Wenpin a little curious.
"Haha... Could it be that General Wen only heard about Mr. Yi's magical plan in Xiangyang City, but didn't hear about how the Prime Minister relied on Mr. Yi's tips to avert danger and tide over the difficulties over the past many years?
"
"ah?"
Wenpin exclaimed. After Jiang Ji said these few words, Wenpin realized that he might have really underestimated Mr. Yi before.
After thinking about it carefully, after knowing exactly when Sun Quan's 100,000-strong army was launched, and recalling the letter he received from Xiangyang a few days ago, Wenpin suddenly reacted...
It's not that he arrived late, but that Yi Xiaotian had already predicted that Soochow Wu would plot Hefei, and even made a prediction before the opponent sent troops.
Knew it…
"General Wen just needs to know that from now on you will follow the Prime Minister, no matter what happens..."
Zhang Liao cleared his throat and seemed a little afraid to say the following:
"As long as Mr. Yi's tips are in front of us, even if the Prime Minister suddenly changes his mind and wants us to do something... it is better to believe in Mr. Yi's tips..."
"You will have many opportunities to see this kind of tips in the future, and I believe you will trust this little tip as much as I do."
He smiled and patted Wenpin's stiff shoulder.
Wenpin's eyes widened, seeing that the fierce general in front of him, who was regarded as Cao Cao's right-hand man, actually said such treacherous words. Jiang Ji beside him was not surprised at all, but nodded thoughtfully. When Wenpin
Pin finally understood the position of Mr. Yi's tips in Cao Cao's army.
How can Zhang Liao be treasonous? Everything he said has been tested by facts... After all, the painful lessons of Chibi's defeat are right in front of him. No matter how much he trusts Cao Cao, he has to admit that Yi Xiaotian is more far-sighted and more reliable than Cao Cao.
Compose a little bit...
But - having said this, Zhang Liao didn't intend to delay anything.
He had always had a question, which was probably the only difference between the situation and what Yi Xiaotian said in his bag, so he planned to ask the two people in front of him to see if they knew:
"By the way... Speaking of which, I still have a question... According to the normal marching speed, Soochow's soldiers and horses should have climbed over the mountain tomb in the southeast of the city and came to this side of the mountain, facing us across the water.
I looked around, but why are there still no traces of the Soochow people yet... Could it be that something went wrong in their army, or..."
Zhang Liao didn't quite believe that the other party would catch them off guard with a surprise plan at this time, because Sun Quan's military strength had actually reached the point where it was difficult for them to resist him. It was really a bit difficult to find another plan at this time.
