Before the sun rose, Ye Jinnan walked out of the barracks with a zhechong battalion picked out from his own army. Some people may think that the number of 1,200 soldiers is not spectacular, so why is it so powerful? But as long as you have seen the marching people, you should know that the queue of 1,200 people can already be pulled out quite long.
According to the agreement, the two teams gathered outside the Houwu Gate in the middle of the south city of Yongzhou, and then took two routes to go straight to the green bamboo forest. The two sides could attack each other on the way. The feathered arrows used by the soldiers had their arrowheads removed and wrapped in cloth, at least they could no longer kill people. The weapons on both sides were changed to wooden knives, and those who were hit by arrows and knives withdrew spontaneously.
When Ye Jinnan brought his troops to the south gate, it was half an hour earlier than the agreed time. He ordered the soldiers to line up and wait for the general Luo Yao and his opponent today to solve the problem.
Going to the place first and then waiting for the general Luo Yao, this is a matter of course in Ye Jinnan's view. But when Luo Yao brought dozens of generals from the left front to the south gate, Fang Xie hadn't come yet, not only Ye Jinnan but also other generals were somewhat dissatisfied with this rude behavior.
Even if Fang Jie has the status of an imperial envoy, shouldn't he arrive earlier than Luo Yao? It was too arrogant to ask the general to wait for him outside the door.
If they are not popular, please send someone to urge Luo Yao. Luo Yao didn't care at all, he asked someone to move a chair and sit outside the city, he seemed to be in a good mood. This made his generals even more confused. The general is the most disciplined. In the past, if someone was late, he would have been angry. But today is obviously a little abnormal, not only is he not angry, but there is always a smile on the corner of his mouth!
Half an hour later than the agreed time, Fang Jie came out of the city slowly with the troops from Shanzi Camp. Looking at his leisurely and contented expression, it doesn't look like he is leading a troop contest, but he looks like he is leading twelve hundred soldiers on a tour.
"I can't bear it anymore!"
Duan Bianxiong, who ranked fifth among the Ten Heroes of Luomen, couldn't help but spit: "A small cavalry general from the fifth rank, but he has such a face as soon as he is favored. I get angry when I see it. General Which of the soldiers under his rule would dare to be late? After he led the Shanziying, he killed Lei Hu and the others. Although I was angry under the military law, I couldn't say anything. But today he himself was late, so maybe he will cut off his own head first. gone?"
Duan Bianbao, the younger brother of Duan Bianxiong, ranks fourth among the Ten Outstanding Luo Men. He rolled his eyes at Duan Bianxiong and said in a low voice, "You can't shut up? Not many people think you're an idiot!"
Duan Bianxiong couldn't beat this younger brother since he was a child, so he opened his mouth and held back the words he was about to scold: "You are not an idiot, didn't you just scold me too!"
Duan Bianbao glared at him and said, "Just now I scolded you because I didn't understand what was going on, but now I scold you for being an idiot because I figured it out and you haven't figured it out yet."
"Do you understand what?"
Duan Bianxiong asked.
Duan Bianbao looked at the two people standing beside the general, and said in a low voice, "Look at Zhan Yao and Wen Xiaodao, they have been smiling with their lips pursed. I just followed their gaze, and they both That Zhechong camp who has been watching Ye Jinnan!"
Duan Bianxiong looked at Ye Jinnan subconsciously, and after a while, he suddenly realized!
"That kid was late on purpose!"
Duan Bianbao smiled: "You idiot just understand... Ye Jinnan's men have been here for nearly an hour, and at this hour the soldiers are all standing upright, how tired are they? The ones with their chests upright are afraid that they will be caught in the crowd. He was scolded for his unbearable performance in front of the general. After standing like this for so long, he would be tired. Fang Xie was late on purpose. He just wanted Ye Jinnan to wait with his troops. First, it can consume Ye Jinnan's soldiers Second, this will inevitably affect Ye Jinnan's mentality."
"Fang Xie knows that he is a talented leader, and he won't take advantage of the experience, formation, and confrontation between the two armies. So he finds a way from other places, even if it's just to take advantage of it." He doesn't let go of anything."
"Too... so fucking cunning, insidious! This kid is insidious!"
Duan Bianxiong cursed in a low voice.
"insidious?"
Duan Bianbao curled his lips: "You think you are just as lucky as you, and you can become a fourth-rank general by relying on brute force and not being afraid of death! He knows that he is not as good as Ye Jinnan, and there is no such thing as an invincible general." Shackled by his past achievements, he has no scruples. He can use whatever method he can, and such a person is terrifying on the battlefield."
"Why do you speak for outsiders?"
Duan Bianxiong said in surprise.
"Pooh!"
Duan Bianbao spat at him: "Look at the smile on the General's face, where did you treat Fang Jie as an outsider? We don't know about the General, but can't you see that the General loves talents? A while ago, Fang Jie chopped up the envoy sent by the rebels in the study of the general. If it were someone else, even the imperial envoy would have turned his back on him long ago. The general met the rebels in private. If this matter is reported to the imperial court, it will definitely cause an uproar! But it seems that Fang Jie did not report this matter, who knows if he and the general have an agreement long ago?"
"ah?"
Duan Bianxiong was stunned for a moment and then said in amazement: "No wonder... With the general's temper, how could it be possible to watch him kill Lei Hu and the others without asking a single word."
"It's good to know!"
Duan Bianbao lowered his voice and said: "Don't talk nonsense in front of the general in the future, just watch it, if you win this competition, the general will definitely use this solution again. When the time comes, the general will detain him and not let him go back to Chang'an, The emperor can only agree. It may take a few years for his status to be on par with you and me."
"Fuck!"
Duan Bianxiong scolded: "Why?"
"Shut up!"
Duan Bianbao glanced at Luo Yao's side, then secretly kicked Duan Bianxiong: "Look honestly!"
…
…
Luo Yao sat on the open space outside the door, and only two people were qualified to stand beside him. The general on the right, who looks to be in his thirties, has a slender figure and a rather handsome white face, is named Wen Xiaodao. He is not the oldest left midfielder, but he is definitely the fastest promoted. It took less than seven years from when he entered the left forward to being promoted to a fourth-rank general. This speed is already extremely astonishing.
The person standing on Luo Yao's right looked about forty years old. He has a strong body, a tiger-backed ape waist, a square-shaped face, thick eyebrows and big eyes, and a neatly trimmed beard on his chin. His face was a little red, and he was wearing a green shirt, which was quite the demeanor of the second master. Looking at the determination in his eyebrows, one can tell that this person's heart must be very cold and hard. He is the number one among the ten heroes of Luomen, and his name is Zhan Yao.
"Do you see something famous?"
Luo Yao asked with a smile.
Wen Xiaodao, who looked like a white-faced student, pursed his lips and smiled, looking a bit shy: "General Ye may suffer a loss this time, Mr. Xiao Fang is not like a novice. Let General Ye's troops stand here for the time being." If you run for an hour, you will definitely suffer a lot.”
His voice was clean and clear, without a hint of hoarseness. The battle armor was covered with a white robe, which made him look even more handsome.
"Fang Jie's Shanzi Camp has the wrong number of people."
Zhan Yao said in a flat tone.
"It's the poison that Zhan Yao saw."
Luo Yao smiled and said.
Wen Yidao frowned slightly, then looked at Fang Jie's team: "Sure enough..."
He felt a little uncomfortable, obviously Zhan Yao only took a look at Fang Jie, but he saw more than himself. Zhan Yao is Luo Yao's number one confidant, and no one can shake his position over the years. Although he has made rapid progress in the past seven years and ranked second among the top ten Luo Men, he still cannot replace Zhan Yao. And he himself knows that Zhan Yao's ability is so strong that he is not an opponent.
But he is sure that he will surpass Zhan Yao one day, because his heart is colder and harder.
"Guess you two, where did the missing people in Fang Jie's team go?"
Luo Yao asked.
Wen Yidao glanced at Zhan Yao, but did not answer.
After a moment of silence, Zhan Yao said, "Halfway, ambush."
"A team of 1,200 people ambushed by 150 people?"
Luo Yao asked again: "What are the chances of winning?"
Zhan Yao replied: "If I am, ten."
Luo Yao looked at Wen Xiaodao, Wen Xiaodao hesitated for a while and replied, "Nine and a half minutes."
"What about Fang Jie?"
he asked again.
Zhan Yao shook his head: "I don't know."
Wen Xiaodao thought for a while and answered, "Six points."
Luo Yao seemed to be a little interested: "Do you think there is a six-point chance of winning without Fang Xie's team of 150 people personally commanding the surprise attack? Why do you have such confidence in Fang Xie?"
"The subordinates have no confidence in him."
Wen Xiaodao replied truthfully: "But my subordinates feel that since Fang Xie dared to do this, he must be sure. And General Ye will use upright tactics to deal with it. Being a character, so he has an advantage."
"Well said."
Luo Yao smiled: "Jin Nan hasn't lost a single defeat for many years, he looks down on Fang Jie from the bottom of his heart... If he loses today, it will be a reminder to him. On the battlefield, how can there be a general who wins no matter what he fights?"
"The general thinks General Ye will lose?"
Wen Xiaodao asked.
"The number of five or five."
Luo Yao said lightly: "Ye Jinnan didn't understand Fang Jie because of his self-identity. But Fang Xie knew him and spent a long time getting to know him. He beat understanding with ignorance, and lost by three points but Jin Nan's experience can make up for these three points, and the two are barely equal. Fang Jie doesn't care about tricks, Jin Nan disdains tricks, Fang Jie wins by one point, but Jin Nan is brave and commands his soldiers like arms and fingers, not only moving back to this place After all, Fang Xie's soldiers are still not so smooth to command. But... the one hundred and fifty people are a variable, and if I'm not wrong, this variable will make Jinnan suffer a lot. "
"Where are the variables?"
Wen Xiaodao asked.
Luo Yao shook his head and said nothing, but the smile on the corner of his mouth was so relieved.
…
…
While Luo Yao was fighting outside the South City, Luo Wen was writhing in pain in the boudoir of the most popular girl in a brothel. After he swallowed the elixir, his body began to feel unwell, and he didn't dare to stay in the mansion for fear of being discovered. So he immediately left the General's Mansion, and didn't let Zhong Bo want to go out of the city with him, the reaction in his body made him unable to hold on halfway, so he had no choice but to casually sneak into a brothel by the roadside.
He has been hiding in this building for a few days, but fortunately he has this temperament, otherwise he would be suspicious. These days, he lived like a year.
After driving out the red girl who brought him the food, Luo Wen sternly said a word to kill you, and then fell to the ground. He struggled for a long time before crawling onto the bed, the pain in his lower abdomen was unbearable for him. Just when he thought he was going to die if he couldn't bear it, Shi Yuan who gave him the elixir stood beside his bed at some point.
"You...you want to kill me!"
Luo Wen roared with red eyes, and the blood vessels on his face protruded.
"I'm helping you."
Shi Yuan sat down on the chair beside him, stretched out his hand and tapped him a few times: "Now you endure the pain of writing, and what you get will surprise you. If you think you can't bear this pain, I will give you Tell a story, listen to the story, maybe you won't be so miserable."
"You lied to me! That medicine will poison me to death, right!"
Luo Wen frantically reached out his hand to grab Shi Yuan, but after being tapped by Shi Yuan a few times, he suddenly found that the pain eased a bit.
"If I want to kill you, why bother to trick you into taking medicine?"
Shi Yuan said lightly: "Listen to the story, it can relieve pain... a story from a long time ago."
"Is it related to me?"
Rowan asked.
"It had nothing to do with you at first, but now it seems that it is not only related to you, but also has a lot to do with it."
