Chapter 697: Can’t you understand? That’s right if you can’t understand it! What exactly does the Qin army want?
Both Ge Ping and Li Qiong understood Ying Chengyu’s first and third orders perfectly.
Fight if you can, and run if you can't.
Easy to understand!
But Ge Ping and Li Qiong were completely unable to understand Ying Chengyu’s second order.
And was shocked!
After a few breaths, Li Qiong just subconsciously murmured: "Chang'an Lord, you rebelled?!"
Ge Ping subconsciously refuted: "Impossible!"
"Whoever betrays the Great Qin, even Chang'an Lord cannot betray the Great Qin!"
In Ge Ping's heart, Ying Chengyu is the only light that belongs to the right path in this filthy world!
Although Ying Chengyu does things informally, everything he does is for the sake of righteousness!
How could such a person lead an army to commit treason?
Li Qiong came back to his senses and hurriedly said: "I doubt Lord Chang'an's loyalty to the Qin Dynasty."
"It's just that Lord Chang'an's order is too... unusual."
“I can’t understand what Lord Changan intends to do with this policy at all!”
Ge Ping nodded and said: "It's just that Li County Magistrate can't understand!"
Li Qiong asked with some expectation: "Could it be that the county magistrate..."
Ge Ping answered confidently. : "I can't understand it either!"
Li Qiong: ヽ(ー`)
Then why are you so confident!
Ge Ping continued: "What kind of person is Lord Chang'an? What kind of person is Lord Wu'an?"
"If the confrontation between these heroes can be understood by people like you and me, then it's okay!"
"There is no need for us to understand the meaning of Lord Chang'an's policy."
"Execution is enough!"
After being silent for a few breaths, Li Qiong slowly spoke Nodding: "What the county magistrate said is true."
"Now that the war has begun, Lord Chang'an is the commander-in-chief of this battle, and Lord Chang'an's order is a military order."
"Now that the military order has been issued, Lord Chang'an does not need us to understand it, we only need us to execute it."
"In this case, I will fight for my life with the county magistrate!"
How do you understand it, so what if you don't understand it?
This is not a negotiation or asking for help, but an order, and it is the most irrefutable military order!
Regardless of whether the officials in Licheng understand Ying Chengxuan's idea, all they can do is execute it!
Li Qiong's voice turned decisive: "I will personally lead my troops and servants to guard the gate tower of the east city."
"When the enemy troops enter the city, I will fight to the death with the county magistrate. !”
“Let the county captain Xuntuo lead the troops to assist in the city. Even if nothing can be done, we still have a chance!”
Li Qiong made his decision.
He would take the risk and stay in the East Gate Tower with Ge Ping to gain a little more life for Ge Ping.
But if the strategy fails and the enemy troops enter the city, Li Qiong will try his best to break through and save his life.
After all, Ying Chengyu did not let them defend the city.
And Li Qiong is really unwilling to risk his precious life for such an outrageous order!
However, the response to Li Qiong was silence.
Li Qiong lowered his voice and said: "I know that the county magistrate has a close personal relationship with Lord Chang'an."
"However, Lord Chang'an's plan is too strange!"
"In case of failure... "
Ge Ping interrupted Li Qiong rudely: "I have never doubted Mr. Chang'an."
"It's just." Ge Ping's face was a little embarrassed: "Jun Chang'an is too much. I trust this general a little bit.”
"How can I play the harp and build a building?"
"How can I be so skilled!"
Li Qiong looked at Ge Ping in shock: "Magistrate Ge doesn't know how to play the harp and build a building?!"
Ge Ping said irritably: "I was just a bandit leader a few years ago!"
"Which bandit leader have you seen who can play the piano and build buildings!"
"On the contrary, Li County Cheng, you are from a wealthy family in Licheng, can you play the harp and build buildings?"
Li Qiong spread his hands: "Not every bandit can't play the harp and build buildings."
“Just like not every commoner’s son can play the guqin and build the building.”
“Li has studied the law since he was a child in order to become an official. Where did he find the time to learn the playing of playing the harp and playing the building?”
>
After a pause, Li Qiong added: "Xun Tuo was awarded a title for military merit and became a county captain."
"If you want to beat drums and sing songs, I think Xunxian Lieutenant can know a thing or two about it."
"But playing the harp and building buildings?"
"I think Xunxian County Lieutenant is not that capable."
For a while, Ge Ping and Li Qiong looked at each other again.
Although they didn't understand why Ying Chengyu asked Ge Ping to play the piano and build the building.
But without understanding, they dared not change Ying Chengyu's orders at will.
Not to mention that it is illegal to adjust military orders without authorization.
What if playing the piano and building the building involves other plans of Ying Chengyu, or even a signal to some people, if Ge Ping and others change it without authorization, wouldn't it ruin Ying Chengyu's plan, and even worse themselves? life? !
Ge Ping and Li Qiong never expected this.
They have all decided to put their lives on Ying Chengyu's unreliable plan.
As a result, the whole plan came to a deadlock because of this small request of playing the piano and playing the piano!
Suddenly, Ge Ying's voice reached the ears of the two of them: "I can!"
Ge Ping frowned and said, "I am discussing with the county magistrate how to retreat from the enemy."
"The baby must not be fooling around!"
Ge Ying said firmly: "The baby is not fooling around!"
"After Aweng returned to Qin, he spent a lot of money to find several masters for his son."
"These masters liked to get together to play the piano and sing songs in their free time, and my son also learned from them. "One or two."
"Although I am not yet a master of construction, I am already a beginner at Fuqin."
Ge Ping waved his hand and said firmly: "You are not here. "
"Go and pack your bags and go back with your mother!"
Li Qiong did not dissuade him after hearing this. Because Li Qiong's wife was also packing her bags and preparing to flee.
Maybe the two families can go together.
Ge Ying raised his hands solemnly: "Since Lord Chang'an explicitly ordered Aweng to play the zither and build buildings instead of playing drums and trumpets, or just having fun, it shows that this move is particularly important for Lord Chang'an's plan."< br>
“Aweng firmly believes in Chang’an Lord’s policy, and so does my son!”
"My son has the ability to help Aweng complete the plan of Lord Chang'an. If my son followed his father's orders and fled, Aweng failed to play the zither and build the building, which led to the fall of Licheng and the defeat of Aweng."
"My son, in the end He will never be happy in his life!"
Ge Ping didn't know how to persuade him.
If the situation described by Ge Ying really happened, couldn't it be said that Ge Ping was killed by Ge Ying?
Even if people in the world don’t blame Ge Ying because they don’t know about this, how can Ge Ying himself get out of the shadow in his heart!
Ge Ping said with difficulty: "Chang'an Jun said that Naiweng played the piano and built the building, not you!"
Ge Ying smiled and said: "The father has something to do, and the son should do his job."
"If the father is inconvenient to play the piano and build the building, the son will do it from his own time!"
"All I have to do is listen to my son's music."
Ge Ping completely ran out of words to refute.
Looking deeply at Ge Ying, Ge Ping sighed softly: "Go and see your mother off."
"Perhaps this is the last time we see each other in this life."
Ge Ying was overjoyed. , hurriedly handed over: "Thank you, Aweng!"
——
The next afternoon.
The last batch of scouts returned to Zhao Jun's camp.
However, no one brought back the news that Sima Shang was both looking forward to and resisting.
“No!” Sima Shang paced back and forth with his hands behind his back, his brows furrowed so hard he could kill a fly: “How could there be no!”
“It would be fine if the main force of the Qin army had not come here. Why aren’t there even reinforcements sent by General Qin Duanhe?”
“This is unreasonable!”
"This is so unreasonable!"
A strong sense of disobedience lingered in Sima Shang's heart.
The main force led by Ying Chengxuan has not yet arrived, and Li Mu's guess failed. Although Sima Shang couldn't believe it, he thought it was reasonable.
However, Yang Duanhe has not sent Qin troops to reinforce Licheng to this day, which makes Sima Shang completely incomprehensible.
Conjectures and hypotheses emerged in Sima Shang's mind one by one, but they were all rejected by Sima Shang on his own.
"Hoo~~~"
Exhaling a breath, Sima Shang stopped, looked at Licheng, and said softly: "But no matter what, Licheng only has five thousand county soldiers and two to three thousand temporary soldiers." Recruiting young and strong soldiers.”
The strategy of the larger battlefield is what Li Mu should think about.
As a captain, what he needs to do is to take advantage of the fact that Licheng has not yet been controlled by the main force of the Qin army, and bring this strategic location into the hands of the Zhao army!
Getting on his horse, Sima Shang decisively shouted: "Order!"
"The three armies are united and the whole army is advancing!"
"Go first, prepare to attack the city!"
The eighty thousand Zhao troops all cheered in excitement:
"Wei!"
The flag is waved and the soldiers move forward.
Under the leadership of Sima Shang, 80,000 Zhao troops quickly approached Licheng.
However, the closer to Licheng, the more uneasy Sima Shang felt.
“Our army is so close to Licheng. You can see our army’s flag standing on the city wall of Licheng. Why is the gate of Licheng not closed for so long?!”
"Why is there an old man who is sweeping outside this city! Why don't they run away when they see our soldiers!"
"And who is that man on the wall?!"
Strange!
So weird!
This Licheng City reveals too much weirdness from the inside out.
As Li Mu's lieutenant in the original history and one of Zhao's top generals today, Sima Shang is by no means a reckless and ill-advised general.
Precisely because Sima Shang is not a reckless and unwise general, it is inevitable that he will think more and more and become more nervous.
And when Sima Shang saw a young man sitting sideways on the East City Gate, burning incense and playing the piano, and a middle-aged man sitting on the East City Gate, shaking his head and listening to music, the tension in Sima Shang's heart finally reached its peak!
The scouts looked at each other and whispered: "Captain, the person sitting on the throne is Ge Ping, the magistrate of Licheng County."
"This person was originally Fuli Gui The leader of the mountain bandits led the Zhao'an army to defect to Qin in the Battle of Echeng."
"In the battle between Qin and Chu last year, this man served as the guerrilla vanguard of the Qin army and recruited a large number of bandits in Chu. The knight was used by Qin. "After the war, this man was promoted to the county magistrate of Licheng for his merit."
Sima Shang frowned and asked, "Who is that person playing the harp next to this person?"
"From what I saw, it seems that he looks similar to Ge Ping?"
Scout The hundred generals thought for a moment before replying: "That man is the eldest son of the county magistrate Ge Ping."
"Ge Ying."
Sima Shang's heart suddenly condensed: "There is no defense. , the city gate is wide open, leading the eldest son to play the piano on the city gate tower? ”
Sima Shang couldn't understand!
Sima Shang’s pupils were shaken!
Thinking from his perspective, Sima Shang believed that he would never be able to do such a thing.
The Ge Ping in front of me was not only a county magistrate, but also a guerrilla pioneer who played a huge role in the battle between Qin and Chu!
How could such a person put himself in such danger for no reason!
How could he possibly put his eldest son into danger with him!
Sima Shang asked in a solemn voice with a splitting headache: "Are you sure there is no main force of the Qin army in Licheng?"
This time, even the scouts' eyes were a little confused: "Humble, I really didn't see it!"
"It was not dozens of people, nor thousands of people, but hundreds of thousands of people!"
"It's just Licheng, why? It’s possible to hide so many people!”
Sima Shang looked at Ge Ping with confusion.
"But if the main force of the Qin army is not around, how dare this person do this!!!"
