"It won't be long before they are rushing to move south." Ye Chang heard Liang Dong's words and snorted: "Anyway, just be prepared. It hasn't snowed yet. According to last year, it won't snow again." It will snow in the next month. If anyone is willing to move south, be prepared. " "Yes." Liang Dong disagreed in his heart, but said in his mouth. They talked while patrolling the city. Anshi City was not big, and it only took half an hour to tour the entire city. When he returned to the mansion, Nan Jiyun and others had already left, but there was a strange-looking barbarian wandering in front of his door. Seeing Ye Chang returning, the guard came forward and reported: "Ye Sima, this man claims to have a secret message and wants to see him. " "Whose secret message?" " "He refused to say anything. Mr. Cen came to ask, but he didn't say anything either. He just said he wanted to see you. " Ye Changnian glanced at the man. The man was dressed like a ridicule. He thought about it briefly. Since he became famous in Liaodong, there has been an endless stream of people asking to see him every day, but most of them are replaced by Cen Shen. There are not many people who insist on seeing him. ¡°Let him come into the house. Ye Chang said: "I will make time to see him later." " Not long after, the Xi man was brought to Ye Chang. As soon as he saw Ye Chang, he fell down and said, "Honey, my dear, meet Ye Sima." He spoke a good man's language and looked a little reserved. Ye Chang squinted and looked at it. Looking at him, after a while he said: "You said you gave me a secret message on someone's order, why don't you take out the secret message? " "The villain is here under the orders of Vice-College Fan. What Vice-College Fan wants me to deliver is an oral message. "Vice Colonel Fan?" Ye Chang's mind turned around and he immediately understood that this Vice Colonel Fan was Fan Chongwu. He looked calm and nodded: "It turns out to be him What's the proof?" " "He swore on Ayili's life. "He Jing felt a little weird in his heart. On the basis of the life of the Khitan woman, would Ye Sima, who seemed to be extremely shrewd in front of him, believe it? Ye Chang just believed it. "Fan Chongwu's aesthetics are obviously abnormal, with big breasts. Big butt is all he wants from a woman. He has been a bachelor for more than 20 years and has been in desolation for more than 20 years. Ever since he met Ayili, he has become obsessed with this Khitan girl and even bet his own life on it. He doesn¡¯t care about his future. ¡°What is his message? " "Dong Qin's tribe is in Yangjiaozigou. He Ying whispered: "That's a ravine where we Xi people live." Ye Chang recalled the map. Yangjiaozigou was named by the Xi people, and it was not a big place, so he did not find this place on the map. Fan Chongwu brought this news. Although it is not crucial, it still has its value. "If Dong Qin can also be dealt with in Jing, this time it will have an excellent effect of killing chickens and frightening monkeys." And this news made Ye Chang's initial anger disappear by more than half. He was not angry about the enemy's invasion, but angry about the betrayal of his own people. "Bring me a map, where is Yangjiaozigou?" Ye Chang asked again. After getting the map, Ye Chang looked at the location of Yangjiaozi Valley. To his surprise, Yangjiaozi Valley was not in the east of Liaohe River, but in the west of Liaohe River. In other words, Dong Qin's headquarters did not come to Liaodong, only part of his account came to Liaodong. Ye Chang didn¡¯t take it seriously at first, but gradually, his expression became colder. "Invite Mr. Cen and the prince to come," he thought for a moment and ordered. Cen and Wang Changling had already returned to their respective places of residence. They had just sent Zhang Hao away, but now they heard Ye Chang's call and hurried over. When I arrived, I found that something was wrong with the atmosphere. Almost all the generals who were still in the city had arrived. "I just got the news." After everyone had gathered, Ye Chang gestured to He Jing: "You can tell me more." He Jing then told how he met Fan Chongwu. It turned out that he was forcibly recruited by the Pinglu Army. After the Xi people rebelled, he was highly suspected in the army. This time Dong Qin sent people to listen to Hou Xiyi and Li Huaiyu, mainly Xi people and Khitan people in the army. At first, Dong Qin's idea was to let them pretend to be the rebellious Khitan tribe and raid and loot. However, Hou Xiyi and Li Huaiyu had their own ideas, especially Li Huaiyu, who looked like a young man and was full of food. They decided to occupy the big stone bridge openly. After Fan Chongwu was forced to "take refuge" with Hou Xiyi and others, he was naturally not welcome and was closely watched. He also focused on Ayili and met He Jing and others in the process. I don't know where he got the information. Ask He Jing to report the news to Ye Chang. "You just listen to Fan Chongwu like this?" Cen Shen asked, staring at the scoffing man. "Hehe promised me the position of leader of the Xi people. He also said that I could ask Ye Sima to ask the court to grant me a title. After everyone heard this, although the atmosphere was not right, they couldn't help but laugh. This Fan Chongwu is a good talker. He is accustomed to big words. He originally promised Liang Dong the position of acting city lord, and now he has promised He Jing the post of lord of the city.?The position of leader. "Only these?" "He also said that Yesima recruited many people to allow our people to move to southern Liaoning, and the treatment they received would be far better than in the old land." He Jing added: "My Xi people are half-cultivating and half-grazing, and we are no different from the Tang people. There is not much difference, even the words can be communicatedPlease ask Yesima to take it in." The production level of the Xi people is much higher than that of the Khitan people, and their car-making technology is very high, and they are also deeply loved by Anlu Mountain. press. He Jing heard that Ye Chang treated the Goguryeo people more leniently, so he had the idea of ??moving the whole family to annex. "As long as you prove that you are sincerely using me, I will not treat you poorly. Don't worry, the recruitment in my place will never be like that of Fan Yang and Pinglu." Ye Chang reassured him and sent him away, then Then he said to the subordinates around him: "Do you think what he said is true or false?" "Where is Yangjiaozigou?" Cen Shen asked. The map was presented, and Yangjiaozigou was marked on it. Seeing that place, Cen and Ye Chang exchanged glances, and their expressions became a little strange. "What's wrong?" "It's too close to Anshi City." Cen Shen said: "If Dong Qinzhen just sent people to test and see Logically speaking, it shouldn't be so close to Anshi City." "That means this Si has bad intentions towards Anshi City?" Wang Changling understood immediately and his expression changed. If this is true, this Dong Qin is also a figure. "The enemy used what happened over the big stone bridge to lure me out of the city, and then they will seize the city of Anshi?" Cen Shen looked at Ye Chang: "If this is the case, how can it be done? Don't hurry up and send people to summon Zhang Gong and General Nan? "The troops who followed Ye Chang and others here are only more than 4,000 Jili Army and 10,000 Jian'an Army, of which 10,000 are from Jian'an Army. Ye Chang returned after not deciding to continue the northern expedition to reduce the pressure on food supplies. Now Nan Jiyun and Zhang Hao have taken away a total of 3,000 troops. In Anshi city, there are only 1,000 Jili troops, plus another 1,000 Anshi city troops. In a sense, the current Anshi City is indeed empty. "If what He Jing said is true, then Dong Qin should not have received the news at this time." Wang Changling narrowed his eyes slightly: "But, if I recall Nan Jiyun, Zhang Hao, what about the other side of Dashiqiao? " "Also, Dong Qin is just a vanguard and has limited troops. If we let him come, what can he do?" Cen Shen also said. Everyone was talking about it, and everyone was inclined to believe that what He Jing said was true, but Ye Chang felt it was a little weird. Fan Chongwu has certain abilities, otherwise Ye Chang would not have looked at him differently, but the news about him came too timely, and it looked a bit like Dashiqiao had deliberately let him go. Ye Chang had no impression of Dong Qin, but he had a certain impression of Hou Xiyi. In the Tang Dynasty in another life, this man was one of the representatives of the feudal separatists after the Anshi Rebellion. He had always been an unruly person. . How could such a person easily take advantage of someone else's fire? If he were Hou Xiyi, what would he do after realizing that he had become a bait for the enemy? Ye Chang remembered the time when he cheated Huangfu Weiming when he was in Longyou. "Nine times out of ten, this news is true." He signaled everyone to quiet down: "But it should be Hou Xiyi deliberately letting Fan Chongwu know about it. The purpose is to let us recall Nan Jiyun and Zhang Hao." "This "Why?" "They are not monolithic. If we recall Nan Jiyun and Zhang Hao, they will naturally be safe at Dashiqiao. While we are entangled with Dong Qin, we can take the opportunity to transfer the intercepted materials and people. Let's go." Ye Chang sneered: "Don't you think it's strange that they took away supplies and prisoners, so why did they let all our people go and then stop at the big stone bridge? Waiting for the response, I now understand that they are actually bait, but they may not be willing to use it to benefit others What if they turn against the enemy and use Dong Qin as bait? " Will Ye Chang leak the news about Dong Qin? Gathering forces, whether to defend Anshi City or to attack Yangjiaozigou, means that Hou Xiyi and his group can stay out of the situation and leave with the men and materials they intercepted. Anyway, with Di Lie's daughter, they can already ask for credit from An Lushan and even the court. "So, both Dong Qin and Hou Xiyi are worthy of being generals." Wang Changling was a little dazed and murmured. "It's a pity that I never put my thoughts into how to deal with the traitors, but only knew how to plot against my own people." Cen Shen said angrily. "What should we do?" someone asked. They seemed to be in a dilemma. If they went to attack Dong Qin, Hou Xiyi would be free. If they went to attack Hou Xiyi, they would be attacked by Dong Qin. "Hou Xiyi underestimates our Jili Army, but we can't underestimate ourselves. With a thousand men and horses here, can't we defend Anshi City?" Ye Chang sneered: "I have made up my mind, with just these one thousand men Stick to it, but you need to be dispatched"Xiang Nan and Zhang announced the matter and ordered them to fight quickly without leaking any enemy." He made this decision. Although Cen Shen was still a little worried, he said nothing more. Immediately afterwards, he was assigned to defend the city. Regarding the task, the first person Ye Chang ordered was Liang Dong: "Liang Dong, the Anshi city soldiers in your hands will continue your work, and you will recruit more people. I will order the treasury to allocate food and reward money to you. " When Liang Dong heard that he didn't want them to go into battle, he was immediately happy and said "yes", but then he thought to himself: "Ye Sima treats the people of Anshi City like us. He really loves the people like his own children. He has not plundered anything in the city until now. If it were those people from the Pinglu Army, I'm afraid we would suffer. In this case, we have to do our part for Ye Sima." Then he said: "Sima wants to defend Anshi City for the sake of the people of this city. We should have sacrificed cattle and sheep to labor the army, so how dare we ask Sima to pay the reward? ? Although Anshi City is poor, it has plenty of labor, and it has always called on the surrounding areas to recruit brave men for Sima to defend the city." "I am very happy that you have this intention, but it is not needed for the time being. Ye Chang smiled and said, "Just do what I tell you." " Liang Dong took the order and left. Ye Chang looked at Shanzhi again: "Brother Shanzhi, didn't you say that there was no chance to make meritorious deeds? Now the chance has come. " Shanzhi chuckled: "That's natural." "I asked the third brother to lead 800 people out of the city at night. When dawn, spread the flag widely, build up a great momentum, and return to the city. "Ye Chang said again. "Isn't it a war? " "This is even more powerful than fighting. Don't you, Third Brother, hear that Sun Tzu's Art of War says that those who are good at fighting have no great achievements? "Ye Chang joked. "At first, everyone was a little nervous, but when they heard Ye Chang was so relaxed, they immediately relaxed. Wang Changling clapped his hands at this time and praised: "Good plan." I think Dong Qin also has plans in Anshi City. Eyes and ears, Shanzhi leads his troops quietly out of the city late at night, and then enters the city with great fanfare during the day. If these eyes and ears are blinded, he will mistakenly think that Ye Chang has transferred Zhang Hao, Nan Jiyun, etc. back. There are enough troops in the city, so he will not dare to attack easily. As long as the battle situation at Dashiqiao is clear after two or three days, if Dong Qin wants to attack again, he will have to fight head-on. If he has the strength, he will not let Hou Xiyi go to Dashiqiao. One man rode out of the city on horseback and stopped for a moment when leaving the city gate. If the city guard asked about it, he would only say that he was going to recall Nan and Zhang. "Ye Chang said again. "That's right. Hou Xiyi must have eyes and ears in our city, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to catch Fan Chongwu so accurately. He was blocking Fan Chongwu." Cen Shen also gave a high-five. Ye Chang smiled and shook his head slightly. Cen Shen and Wang Changling said, Although the two liked to talk about side affairs, they both lacked practical experience. They were not as good as Zhang Hao, a strategist who liked to talk about history books. Instead, he was able to make suggestions. This was why he had just sent Zhang Hao south instead of Ling Cen and Wang Suijun. Reason. "If everyone has no objections, they will act accordingly. "After the distribution was completed, Ye Chang finally said. "Everyone had no objections and acted according to their own plans. Not long after, Cen Shen appeared in front of the door and said to a cavalryman: "This matter is of great importance. You must do it as soon as possible." The message will be delivered within the time limit, without delaying for a moment." The cavalry responded loudly, and then rode through the street and headed straight for the south gate. When he arrived at the south gate, a group of idle men were basking in the sun at the gate. He saw the gate army Wanting to stop him, he shouted sharply: "I have been ordered to recall Ambassador Nan and Zhang Tuiguan, do you dare to delay the military situation? "The gate army immediately gave way, and the cavalry walked away, disappearing into the distance in a blink of an eye. Outside the city gate, leaning against the wall, an idle man stood up as if nothing had happened, scratched his head, and walked away into the distance.
