In the study, Yan Yan was sitting upright with a serious look on his face.
He was holding a scroll of letters in his right hand, staring at the letters in his hand and reading them carefully.
Just as he was looking at it, there were rapid footsteps outside the study, and then there was a knock on the door. A small colonel stood respectfully outside the study and said loudly: "General, the scouts sent yesterday returned to Baocheng and brought them with them.
Sent back important news."
Yan Yan woke up immediately after hearing this.
He was relieved when he heard what the principal said. Wang Can finally made some noise.
The two armies were in a stalemate, and it was he who suffered the loss.
As long as there is movement in Wang Can's army, it means that the situation in Hanzhong has changed. Yan Yan quickly put down the bamboo slips in his hands, stood up and strode to the door, opened the door, and nodded towards the primary school. He looked at the people stationed outside the study.
The soldier ordered: "beat the drums to gather the generals and summon all the generals to the county hall for discussion."
"promise!"
The soldiers got the order and left immediately.
Yan Yan then looked at the principal standing next to him and said in a deep voice: "Go to the hall and talk as you go."
As he spoke, Yan Yan walked directly to the county hall.
Behind him was the primary school boy who delivered the news, following suit. The primary school boy looked respectful, lowered his head slightly, and looked at Yan Yan with admiration in his eyes.
The colonel said loudly: "Reporting to the general, the scouts who quietly sent out to the city last night all discovered that something happened in Wang Can's camp. They suddenly became a little hasty and panicked, as if something big had happened. In the middle of the night, Wang Can's army moved and retreated.
Wuli, when the scouts were tracing the news, they also captured a lone soldier."
Yan Yan looked surprised and said, "You actually caught a prisoner?"
The colonel sighed and said, "Although we have captured a prisoner, this prisoner is so confused that he doesn't know anything."
Yan Yan disagreed and said: "According to the news from the scouts, something big happened in Wang Can's camp. Well, you run faster and bring the captured soldiers to the hall. I will interrogate myself and see.
Can we get important news?"
"promise!"
After the soldier responded, he quickly speeded up and brought the prisoner to the hall.
Yan Yan walked into the hall and sat down with a thoughtful look in her eyes.
Back five miles?
Could it be that something really happened in Hanzhong?
Yan Yan was quite uneasy because he couldn't be sure whether this was Wang Can's deception. Moreover, Yan Yan also wanted to know whether major events had really happened in other places in Hanzhong. However, he was trapped in Baocheng.
Wang Can's army was defeated, but Baocheng was surrounded by the Hanzhong Army, and he could not get in touch with the Yizhou Army in other directions.
Fighting alone, it is difficult to know the real situation.
Or, this was a trap set by Wang Can to lure him into fighting.
While Yan Yan was thinking, the primary school commander had already walked in with the captured Hanzhong soldiers.
Looking up, he saw the captive soldiers cowering and very frightened. Yan Yan's heart moved. He reached out and grabbed the large ring knife hanging from his waist, and placed it on the desk with a bang.
The sound was loud and echoed in the hall.
Seeing Yan Yan's dominance, the Hanzhong soldiers shrank their necks suddenly, with a look of fear on their faces.
When the principal saw this, he smiled jokingly.
Yan Yan didn't look at the Hanzhong soldiers at all. He stared at the large ring knife on the desk, pulled out the large ring knife with a clatter, and rubbed the blade. The bright light shone on the silver-white blade, giving off a cold light.
Yan Yan reached out and flicked the big ring knife, and the big ring knife suddenly made a crisp buzzing sound that kept echoing.
"call out!"
Yan Yan held the handle of the knife with his right hand, stood up suddenly, raised the large ring knife and slashed forward.
The sword slashed down from the air, making explosive sounds wherever it passed.
Yan Yan held a big sword in his hand and said to himself: "This general's big ring sword has killed countless people and drank countless blood. He has killed Yellow Turban thieves, barbarians, Yizhou rebels, and even Deng Fang's head was stabbed
Cut it off, I don’t know what it will be like if your head is cut off with a knife."
After finishing speaking, Yan Yan's large ring sword was forced towards the Hanzhong soldiers.
Although he didn't get close to the Hanzhong soldiers, he still felt a hint of coldness coming from the large ring sword.
The Hanzhong soldier first saw Yan Yan swinging his sword and was threatened by Yan Yan. He was already trembling with fear and lost his mind. He waved his hands and said quickly: "General, if you have any questions, I will definitely tell you.
I must say it. I just ask you not to kill the villain and spare his life."
When Yan Yan saw this, he felt funny in his heart. This soldier was too timid.
He waved his sword twice and said a few words without even showing off his own momentum, thus scaring the other party.
However, this is good, it saves a lot of effort.
He nodded with satisfaction, sheathed the large-ringed sword in his hand, put the large-ringed sword on the desk, and asked, "Why did Wang Can withdraw his troops in the middle of the night?"
The soldier was stunned for a moment, shook his head and said: "We are not withdrawing our troops, we are just retreating five miles."
After finishing speaking, the soldier looked at Yan Yan innocently, expecting Yan Yan to release him immediately.
Yan Yan asked again: "Since we didn't withdraw our troops, why did we retreat five miles?"
The soldier answered truthfully: "I don't know!"
Yan Yan stared at the soldier with eyes like knives, and shouted: "You really don't know?" While speaking, Yan Yan suddenly put his right hand on the handle of the Dahuan Dao, and with a clang, he pulled out the Dahuan Dao an inch.
This scene fell in the eyes of the soldier, and he was immediately frightened out of his mind. He hurriedly stretched out his hand and waved it to signal Yan Yan not to use the knife. At the same time, he persuaded Yan Yan loudly: "Don't be anxious, don't be anxious, I want to think about it now, I want to think about it now
." When Yan Yan saw the soldier's fear, the corner of his mouth turned up with a smile, he took back the hand that was pressing on the handle of the knife, and continued to put it on his knees.
The soldier scratched his head and ears, but couldn't think of anything for a long time.
Seeing this, Yan Yan snorted coldly.
The sound was not very loud, but it was like the sound of thunder in the soldier's ears. His eyes kept blinking, and there was an eager look on his face. After a while, he said loudly: "I remembered, I remembered.
"
Yan Yan smiled and said, "Tell me, what's the reason?"
The soldier smiled flatteringly and said: "Last night, it seemed that many scouts kept rushing back to the camp. After they came back, they immediately met with the prefect. Soon after, an order was sent to the camp and the army retreated five miles."
After hearing what the soldier said, Yan Yan's eyes widened and she wanted to kill the soldier immediately.
This is bullshit reason!
As if he didn't say anything, Yan Yan felt irritated, waved his hand impatiently, and ordered: "Take him down and imprison him."
The colonel got the order and took the soldiers away.
Huang Zhong looked at the leaving Hanzhong soldiers, frowning slightly, with a thoughtful look in his eyes. Wang Can had already made some movement, and he couldn't passively stay in Baocheng. He had to test Wang Can and learn the specific situation. Thinking of it
Here, Yan Yan looked outside the hall, waiting for the arrival of the lieutenant general.
The primary school escorted the Hanzhong soldiers away, and Du Xu had already rushed to the entrance of the hall.
Du Xu glanced at the soldiers in Hanzhong uniforms, paused thoughtfully for a moment, and then continued walking to the hall. After a while, Yan Zhi also arrived at the hall, he saluted Yan Yan respectfully, and then walked into the hall
He sat down in the middle. A quarter of an hour later, all the generals and commanders in Bao City gathered in the hall.
Yan Yan glanced at all the generals and said calmly: "The scouts sent word that Wang Can's army retreated five miles."
In an instant, the silent hall was like a large stone thrown into a calm lake, causing countless splashes.
When all the generals heard this, they all looked happy and discussed the matter among themselves.
Yan Zhi, who was sitting in front, was even more excited. He stood up quickly, cupped his hands and said: "General, Wang Can's army retreated five miles, which is enough to prove that the other Yizhou troops have defeated the Hanzhong army and won. Now Wang Can
Can's retreat of five miles must be to deceive others and deliberately disturb the general's sight. The next step is to withdraw the troops. General, Wang Can's defeat is a sign of defeat, and a great opportunity is in front of him. I will ask for a fight!"
Yan Yan looked at Yan Zhi with a hint of disappointment in her eyes.
Yan Zhi was stubborn, and before he knew the specific situation, he thought Wang Can had lost.
With such thoughts, why fight?
Yan Yan sighed and asked: "Xi Yuan (characterized by Yan Zhi), if Wang Can's retreat of five miles is a tactic to lure the enemy, specifically to lure our army into battle, what should you do?"
After Yan Zhi heard this, he was immediately stunned and opened his mouth, not knowing how to answer.
Immediately, Yan Zhi said loudly: "General, you killed Deng Fang easily. From this, we can infer that the strength of the Hanzhong army is very weak, and Wang Can is not worthy of his name. Even if the two armies fight, the general can defeat Wang Can and obtain the victory."
Victory." After a pause, he said loudly and sternly: "The general is willing to issue a military order. If he cannot, he will be punished!"
"Asshole!"
Yan Yan shouted loudly: "I don't know the art of war, I only know how to fight bravely and never retreat."
There is no joke in the army. It is very dangerous to issue a military order. Once it is issued, it is written in black and white and cannot be denied. Once the task cannot be completed, what awaits is military punishment. Yan Yan is strict in running the army and will never attack Yan Zhi just because he is a brother of the same race.
Therefore, Yan Yan directly shouted back Yan Zhi and refused to let him issue a military order.
Seeing that he had killed Deng Fang, this guy was so proud that he thought Wang Can's soldiers were all cowards. He clamored all day long to go to the battlefield and kill Wang Can, but he didn't understand Wang Can's strength at all.
As soon as Yan Yan showed his power, Yan Zhi was immediately frightened.
He curled his lips, helplessly returned to the generals' queue, and stopped talking.
Du Xu watched Yan Zhi being scolded, and felt funny in his heart. Yan Zhi was famous for his impatience and hot temper in the military. However, Yan Zhi was also a well-known man on the battlefield, daring to fight and fight without caring about his own safety.
Because of this, Yan Zhi can have a place in the army, because the battlefield has always been a place where the strong gallop.
He stood up, walked to the center of the hall, and asked: "General, have you found out the reason why Wang Can retreated?"
Yan Yan shook his head and said: "We don't know yet!"
Du Xu thought for a moment and said: "General, since we don't know the reason for Wang Can's retreat yet, why not test Wang Can and see his specific situation before making a decision."
Yan Yan nodded with satisfaction, he also planned this.
Soldiers, important matters of the country, must be treated with caution. You need to be cautious when sending troops, but you must not be timid when leading troops in battle. Wang Can made a move, and Yan Yan had to figure out Wang Can's purpose. After a moment of silence, Yan Yan ordered:
"Du Xu, call the next battalion of soldiers under your command and assemble immediately!"
"promise!"
Du Xu cupped his fists and shouted, then turned and left the hall.
Yan Yan then looked at the other generals and ordered: "Duxu and I will lead a battalion of soldiers out of the city to test Wang Can's situation. You stay in the city and guard the city. Unless I open the door for someone under the city tower, all doors will be closed."
City gate."
"promise!"
All the generals answered in unison.
Yan Zhi saw that Du Xu had gone to gather the soldiers, but he had no role to play, so he couldn't help it, so he stood up and said with his hands in his hands: "General, Du Xiaowei has gone to gather the soldiers, and the last general also asked for a fight, and followed the general to kill the enemy.
"
Yan Yan scolded: "You have an impulsive personality. If you go to the battlefield and disobey orders, wouldn't it spoil my big job? You can't go."
Yan Zhi shook his head repeatedly and assured: "Don't worry, general. I will never be impulsive in my humble position and will definitely obey orders."
Yan Yan was silent for a moment, then saw Yan Zhi's expectant expression, and finally nodded in agreement and said: "Okay, you come with me, but there is no need to summon your soldiers. I will make it clear to you, if you are reckless and impulsive, you will
There’s no need to go to the battlefield anymore.”
Although Yan Zhi could not order all the soldiers under his command, he still said happily: "Thank you, general!"
He had long wanted to kill Wang Can, and finally had the chance.
