The city gate opened with a creak, and the black soldiers left the city neatly and quickly. During the whole process, not a single soldier made a sound, only the sound of running quickly and deftly.
Although the movement was loud, it was already night after all, so the impact was not significant.
However, the Hero Building got the news.
Hero Building, backyard.
Wu Huang asked the attendant who came to deliver the message: "When the army left the city, did you find Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang?"
The attendant thought for a while and said: "After Liu Bei, Zhuge Liang and Yi Ji went to visit Liu Biao, they went to Cai Mansion with Cai Mao. When it was getting dark, the four of them went to the military camp together. I thought that the person leading the army must be
These four people. Even if it was dark at night and it was hard to see who was leading the troops, they must be there."
Wu Huang pondered: "You are marching in a hurry so late. Could it be that you have discovered something?"
The attendant interrupted and said: "Master, could it be that the situation in Lumen Mountain was leaked and discovered?"
"What did you say?"
When Wu Huang heard this, he was surprised and asked another question instinctively.
The attendant immediately repeated it, and then said: "Liu Biao's army was sent out, but Xiangyang was not in danger. This is a very strange thing. If something goes wrong, it will be a monster. I always feel that Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang have some conspiracy, otherwise they will
I would not deliberately choose to march at night."
Wu Huang thought about the army surrounding Lumen Mountain, and couldn't help but tremble, and said: "It is better to believe that this matter is true, and let the people in Lumen Mountain temporarily evacuate." After a pause, Wu Huang murmured again.
He muttered to himself: "No, you can't stay in one place forever. You have to ask senior brother to change places frequently, otherwise it will be too dangerous."
He did what he said and immediately wrote a letter and asked the carrier pigeon to send it to Lumen Mountain.
After finishing the work, Wu Huang still couldn't calm down.
It was dark now and the city gates were closed. The army could leave the city, but ordinary people like them could not. Therefore, Wu Huang could only wait for news and wait for the city gates to open tomorrow before he could inquire about the situation.
…
On the way, Cai Maoxiao said with a smile: "Kong Ming, this encirclement and suppression of Wang Can depends entirely on your information."
Zhuge Liang said: "General Cai, both for the King of Chu and for my lord, hopes to kill Wang Can to change the current situation. Having said that, this time General Cai personally led the army, so the great merit should be obtained by General Cai
That’s right, what does it have to do with me?”
Zhuge Liang looked as if he was sure that Wang Can would die.
After hearing this, Cai Mao couldn't help but glance at Liu Bei.
At this time, he felt that Liu Bei was quite cute. Because of Liu Bei, he had the opportunity to kill Wang Can.
This opportunity was brought by Liu Bei.
While on the road, a strange idea suddenly came to Cai Hao's mind. He was leading the army to Lumen Mountain with great force, but in the end he found that Wang Can was not in Lumen Mountain. What should he do? For a moment, Cai Hao was a little confused.
Worrying about gains and losses. He was looking forward to killing Wang Can, but he was a little scared.
Cai Mao said worriedly: "Kong Ming, what should we do if Wang Can is not in Lumen Mountain?"
Zhuge Liang shook his head and said: "General Cai, Wang Can must be in Lumen Mountain."
"What if I'm not here?"
"It's impossible not to be there, it must be there!"
Cai Mao and Zhuge Liang argued endlessly about this, and finally even Liu Bei was infected and joined the battle group. Liu Bei's hatred for Wang Can was unforgettable, and he firmly believed that Wang Can was in Lumen Mountain.
There is no other reason, this is his hope.
At the end of the argument, Zhuge Liang threw out his trump card and said confidently: "General Cai, please be at ease. When I was resting at your house in the afternoon, I had sent sentries near Lumen Mountain to monitor Wang Can.
There is movement. So far, no one has come out of Lumen Mountain. Wang Can must still be hiding in the mountain. There can be no mistake."
This is the reason why Zhuge Liang insists.
But Zhuge Liang didn't know that when he left Longzhong for Xiangyang, Wang Can also wanted to ambush him and Liu Bei on their way back to Longzhong, so before Zhuge Liang sent out sentries, Wang Can had quietly led a large group of soldiers.
After leaving Lumen Mountain, they set up an ambush halfway between Longzhong and Xiangyang.
Zhuge Liang missed the time, so the sentinels naturally thought that Wang Can did not go down the mountain.
Little did they know, Wang Can had already gone down the mountain.
When Cai Mao heard this, his spirit suddenly perked up, and Zhuge Liang was so impressed that he even thought of this. He was really clever. With a smile on his face, he said happily: "Okay, as long as Wang Can doesn't go down the mountain, we have a chance.
"
Zhuge Liang glanced at Cai Mao, with a contemptuous smile flashing across his lips.
Cai Mao's ability was good enough to train the navy, but he could not catch Zhuge Liang's eyes when marching and fighting.
When more than ten thousand soldiers of the Chu army were on their way, the carrier pigeon flew to Lumen Mountain. Wang Can left with all his strength, but left four people responsible for delivering the information. Among them, the leader was named Du Twelve, who was the former Wang Yue
People who have been personally trained are smart and capable and are Shi'a's right-hand man.
When he received the news from Wu Huang, he was extremely surprised.
At the moment, Du Twelve dealt with the things left in Lumen Mountain and retreated immediately.
The situation is so serious that there is no time to worry about it.
Du Twelve also felt lucky in his heart. Fortunately, Wang Can took everyone to set up an ambush. If everyone had stayed in Lumen Mountain, they would have been discovered once they chose to leave. Now there are only four of them, and they are wearing black
You can leave Lumen Mountain quietly by just finding a corner.
These four people were all proficient in swordsmanship, especially good at assassination, and were more accustomed to hiding their tracks, so they left Lumen Mountain easily without attracting the attention of Zhuge Liang's sentry. When Cai Mao led nearly 10,000 soldiers to Lumen Mountain,
He ordered: "Kong Ming, my lord said that I am only leading the troops, and it is up to you to arrange the details. Now I leave it to you to make arrangements."
Zhuge Liang nodded and asked his soldiers to surround Lumen Mountain.
But what he did was only surround and did not launch an attack.
At the same time, Zhuge Liang called back the surrounding sentries and inquired about the situation. After he completed the arrangement, he said with a smile: "General Cai, it is night now. It is too dark to march, so we can only surround. Now we just set up a dragnet to capture the deer."
Surround the gate mountain so that Wang Can cannot jump out, and wait for daybreak to attack."
Cai Mao said: "Well, okay, we will attack after dawn."
The group of people began to wait for a long time.
Late at night, Liu Bei suddenly said: "Kong Ming, although we came out at night and quickly surrounded Lumen Mountain, Wang Can had no chance to escape. However, now we are stationed at the foot of the mountain with great fanfare and have also surrounded Lumen Mountain.
, Wang Can cannot possibly not know. But you see there is no movement at all in the mountains, something is wrong, something is wrong."
I have to say that Liu Bei is a veteran.
There was no movement in the mountains for a long time, and he felt a little strange.
If Wang Can found that the mountain forest was surrounded, he would not be able to find a way to break out.
Zhuge Liang smiled and said: "My lord, it's not that Wang Can hasn't moved, it's that he is hiding. Don't worry, we will attack after daybreak. It will be useless for them to hide."
Liu Bei nodded, then closed his eyes to rest.
Tens of thousands of soldiers were stationed in Lumen Mountain, waiting hard for dawn.
On the other side, on the official roads in Longzhong and Xiangyang, Wang Can's spirit was a little sluggish. Not only that, Dian Wei's wide eyes would close from time to time, and then suddenly open again, looking very tired. Only Shi A He was very energetic. He slept in the afternoon and had enough energy to prepare for revenge.
Zhuge Liang sent out troops at night, but Wang Can sent out troops at noon. The time difference was too far.
Zhang Hu couldn't help but yawned and said in a low voice: "My lord, I estimate that Zhuge Liang and Sun Qian will temporarily stay in the city and will not return, probably tomorrow or the day after tomorrow."
He shook his dizzy head and said, "No matter, let's get some sleep first."
Wang Can also felt that he could no longer support it and had to change his strategy.
He looked at Shi A and said: "Shi A, if this continues, it must be changed. You are in good spirits now. Lead ten soldiers to stand guard and pay attention to the movement. The rest of the soldiers will all sleep. After two hours, you can choose again. The other ten soldiers stand guard and take turns to rest in this way to ensure that we are refreshed, otherwise we will not be able to do without sleep even if we bring enough dry food to fill our stomachs."
Shi A agreed immediately and then adjusted in time.
In the dark night, people at the foot of Lumen Mountain stayed up late waiting, and Shi A also stayed up late waiting.
