Chapter 623 Why do you want to bully my little sister?
After leaving the military camp, the three of them rode horses for a while. The slightly inclined uphill road was not too difficult for their riding skills, but next, the narrow and rugged road The mountain road and the dense pine and cypress branches sticking out on both sides were no longer suitable for riding on horseback. The three of them could only lead the horse for a while and ride for a while.
By the time we got close to the mountain wall, it was almost midnight.
Although he knew that the mountain wall to the north should still be some distance away from the valley where Yu Wencheng was, for the sake of safety, Yu Wenye still asked them to stop when they were still some distance away from the mountain wall. The cloth he carried wrapped the horses' hooves and bit them, and then tied all three horses to the tree.
Then, the three people followed the moonlight through the dense pine and cypress forest on the top of the mountain, and finally walked to the mountain wall silently.
At this time, the night was as dark as ink, and everything was silent.
The side of the ten thousand-foot cliff at the foot is as flat as a knife. It seems that there is really an immortal god holding a huge ax to split the Cangbai Mountain in half. Standing on the cliff, there is an open field in front of you. The scenery, although it was dark at this time, the dark clouds on the zenith finally dispersed, revealing the clear stars and moon, and the scattered light also illuminated the outlines of some huge mountains and rivers far and near.
Among them, a particularly deep shadow, like a shadow cast by thick ink, is the valley ahead.
"That's right, there..."
Yu Wenye frowned slightly, took another careful look, and immediately became vigilant.
He grabbed Shen Wuzheng and Nie Chong with both hands and immediately leaned down on the ground, staring straight ahead. Shen Wuzheng looked at him in surprise: "What's wrong?"
Yu Wenye said: "There is fire ahead."
"Oh?"
Shen Wuzheng was startled, and looked up again. Sure enough, in the dark night, he saw a slightly flickering, almost invisible light at the entrance of the valley. Point, when you look carefully, you can see that there are indeed several points of fire.
It seems that there are several bonfires.
And around the bonfire, there were some faintly shaking black spots, which seemed to be people surrounding the fire.
He said in a deep voice: "That's——"
Yu Wenye said: "That should be the men and horses sent by Wang Shaoji to chase Yanjie."
He As he spoke, he narrowed his eyes slightly. Although the night was dark, under the dim light, His cold eyes emitted a light as sharp and refined as an eagle. He looked ahead for a while and then said: "Yanjie is trapped in the canyon, and they have been guarding outside."
" Have you been standing outside? "
Shen Wuzheng was stunned for a moment, and then he came to some understanding: "Is it because the entrance to the valley is very narrow?"
"Yes." Yu Wenye nodded and said: "The entrance is narrow, making it an easy-to-defend but difficult-to-attack terrain."
As he spoke, he frowned again and looked along the valley to the other side, but he did not see the exit in his sight. He let out a deep breath, and he didn't know whether he was angry or helpless, and said: "It's a pity that it is a place that can be entered but not exited. Although others can't enter, they are also blocked inside."
" ..."
"If there is no help, even if these people can't attack and just block them outside, they will be trapped to death."
Shen Wuzheng looked ahead and nodded silently.
At this time, Nie Chong, who was lying on the right side of Yu Wenye, asked softly: "Your Highness, since we have found the position, should we take action now to catch them by surprise?"
“…”< br>
Yu Wenye pondered for a while and shook his head: "No."
After hearing this, Shen Wuzheng and Nie Chong were stunned for a moment. They looked at each other and then looked at him at the same time. : "Why?"
Yu Wenye said: "It's too dark now. Although we can catch them by surprise if we attack, it will be difficult for us to catch them all once they scatter."
Shen Wuzheng opened his eyes slightly: "You, want to take these people Catch them all?”
Yu Wenye nodded: "Yes."
"Why?"
"Because, once they are allowed to escape, they will definitely return to Taiyuan to report to us on the front line Trends.”
"..."
"If there is really going to be a 'surprise' battle, I hope it will be in Taiyuan, not here."
"..."
After hearing his words, Nie Chong couldn't help but gasped, but was speechless. On the other hand, Shen Wuzheng's eyes flickered slightly, After pondering for a while, he said: "Of course what you said is reasonable, but the other party's troops -"
As he said that, he squinted his eyes slightly and looked ahead for a long time. Although the night was dark, he could not It was clear how many people were in front of the valley, but to be able to pursue Yuwen Cheng all the way to this point, there must be a lot of people, at least around a few thousand. Even if the advance army led by them has 20,000 troops and can defeat the opponent, it is almost impossible to capture them all.
So he said: "It is difficult to catch everyone."
Yu Wenye did not deny it, but said solemnly: "So, we cannot do it at night, but must do it during the day."
"..."
"In this way, if one runs away, one can be caught."
"..."
"We can't just attack from one side, we have to attack from two sides to achieve such a result."
"Two sides to attack?"
Shen Wuzheng looked at him: "You want to divide the troops? "
Yu Wenye shook his head: "The two roads I mentioned are ours and Yanjie's."
"King Qi?"
When Nie Chong heard this, he said with some surprise: "However, His Highness King Qi is now besieged in the valley. Even if we want them to join us in taking action, there is no way to notify the people inside."
Yu Wenye shook his head and said: "There is no need to notify him, he himself knows that it is time to take action."
Nie Chong was even more puzzled: "Why?" Shen Wuzheng frowned and thought for a while, and said: "Isn't that right? Is it because of the rations? Their rations have been running out until now?"
Yu Wenye nodded: "Yes, they fled Taiyuan in a hurry. There are not many. Those people are still guarding the entrance of the valley and have not broken in, which proves that the people inside are not too hungry to move. However, they have exhausted their rations in just these two days."
Shen Wuzheng said: "But it may not be tomorrow."
Yu Wenye stared ahead. Although the fire was so far away from them and was almost the size of a pinpoint in his sight, it was clearly reflected in his eyes. , showing a sharpness and transparency. He said in a deep voice: "But tomorrow, these people will take action."
Shen Wuzheng was startled and looked ahead again: "You said, these people who besieged them are going to take action?"< br>
“Yes.”
“Why?”
Yu Wenye smiled faintly and turned to look at him: "If you were besieging Yanjie, what methods would you use to force him to submit?"
Shen Wuzheng frowned slightly, looked forward again, and said Thinking about it, he suddenly understood and said: "Fire attack!"
Nie Chong on the side suddenly opened his eyes wide.
Yu Wenye nodded and smiled: "Not bad."
"..."
"This valley is narrow, the road is not long, and there is only one exit. The best way is to attack with fire. Using smoke can also smoke people out."
"..."
"Two days ago, the reason why they I didn’t do this because——”
“It’s because of the rain,”
Shen Wuzheng took a deep breath and said, “When it rains, you can’t attack with fire, and the smoke is also Not achieving the best results.”
Yu Wenye nodded: "That's right."
Shen Wuzheng didn't say anything else, he just turned his head and took a deep look at Yu Wenye.
Until this moment, he remembered that three days ago in the meeting hall of Tongguan County Government, Yu Wenye had said to the map that Yu Wencheng might only be able to last for two days. Everyone heard this sentence at the time, but everyone thought it was meaningless. Now it seems that they are stupid.
Yu Wenye’s calculation was indeed accurate.
Not only did Yu Wencheng’s rations be calculated accurately, but the terrain and weather were also taken into consideration.
This man's military talent is no longer a natural talent, but a genius at all!
Looking around the world, I'm afraid I won't be able to find anyone who can predict an opponent. And with this kind of ability, in such troubled times, even if you don't have the support of your ancestors, you will definitely be able to make a career.
Create a brighter future.
So, Shang Ruyi was right to choose him.
Just——
As if sensing the change in Shen Wuzheng's eyes, Yu Wenye turned his head and glanced at him, saying in a deep voice: "What's wrong?"
"..."
Shen Wuzheng was silent for a while, then looked up again He looked forward and said: "However, we'd better observe it carefully to avoid any mistakes when we send out troops tomorrow."
Yu Wenye also looked at him for a while, and then turned his head: "This is natural."
Hearing what they said, Nie Chong seemed to understand something, and he said no more , just facing forward quietly, and after only a moment, he said: "Your Highness, there is no wind here, I can't hear what they are saying clearly."
"..."
"I want to take a walk below, I should be able to hear clearly what they are saying."
Yu Wenye glanced to the side. Although they stood as sharp as a knife under their feet There are hillsides on both sides of the cliff. Although it is too steep to walk, for people like them who came here specifically to explore the enemy's situation, as long as it is not an insurmountable cliff, they can walk.
So he nodded and said: "Go ahead."
"Yes."
Nie Chong accepted the order and immediately stood up, still crouching down, and walked down the hillside. Yu Wenye thought for a while and warned again: "Be careful and don't expose your whereabouts."
Nie Chong immediately said : "I understand."
After saying that, his figure disappeared into the dark cypress forest in the night.
Only two people were left on the mountain wall.
There was a gust of wind, and the pine and cypress branches behind them kept swaying, rubbing against each other, making a rustling sound, like waves coming from a distance, but this sound surrounded the two silent people. The surroundings made the world even quieter.
At this moment, a cold voice said: "His Royal Highness King Qin, why do you treat the princess like this?"
"..."
Yu Wenye frowned and turned to look Shen Wuzheng.
The other party also looked at him.
The two eyes met each other, both shining with sharp light. Although Yu Wenye knew that there was a reason why Shen Wuzheng would follow him to explore the enemy's situation, and the other party's unusual silence and gaze along the way also made him He felt that he would definitely say something to him, but he did not expect that the other person would say this when he opened his mouth.
Without waiting for his response, Shen Wuzheng spoke again. This time, his voice was deeper and more serious: "Or, I should ask this -"
"..."
"Yuwen Ye, why do you want to bully my little sister?”
