Chapter 427: playing tricks
"Old General, that's right, capturing Yancheng will not only damage the morale of the enemy, but also kill the Ye family's people. Why not do it with one stone?" Luo Ding laughed. There are actually several reasons why Luo Ding strongly advocated that General Harrow should attack Yancheng: "One is that Ye Shengtian is too good, he is jealous, he always thinks he is the best; the other is that Yu Jian is in his ear There was a lot of wind blowing, saying how Ye Shengtian was so powerful, how he didn't take your second prince seriously, and over time he developed a grudge against Ye Shengtian; the third is how he was able to help Harrow to kill Ye Shengtian, it must be a great achievement One, many ministers in the court will be more optimistic about themselves, which can be said to be beneficial to the future competition for the throne.
It was for these three reasons that Luo Ding advocated attacking Yancheng.
The Yanri Empire has already begun to make a battle plan, and the specific plan will not be formulated until the spies discover it. Ye Shengtian was not idle either. Regarding the situation and deployment of the enemy army, Ye Shengtian knew very well, and there was no need to send spies, but Ye Shengtian still pretended and sent out a few.
Ye Sheng ordered Yinyue to investigate Harrow's specific information, and soon Harrow's information was in his hands. After looking around, there is no other surprise, that is, he often wins battles, but if he encounters himself, then he is doomed to fail in this war.
Ji Xiaoli was also on the expedition with Ye Shengtian, and the others stayed in Lahasya Province.
Ye Shengtian and Ji Xiaoli casually discussed for a few times, and then said to him: "Tell all the soldiers to eat and drink, and have a good night's sleep, there are only a thousand people left on the city wall, the city gate is open, and anyone can be let in, that is There is no need to stop you from going out of the city, as usual, the city gate is closed at the hour, and the city gate is opened at the moment."
"In this case, if the enemy forces, we don't move, and opening the city gate will help the spies pass the news." Ji Xiaoli thought for a while and said.
There are only 1,000 people guarding the city. If Yanri's army attacked at this time, then Yancheng would be in crisis, and Ji Xiaoli would not be very worried. Very literary In addition, when the city gate is opened, there must be many spies sneaking in, so that all the bottom lines of Yancheng will be touched by the enemy, which is very unfavorable to him.
"Don't worry, just follow what I do, and I guarantee that nothing will happen to Yancheng." Ye Shengtian said with a smile.
"Yes" Ji Xiaoli replied.
"Okay, you go back to rest first." Ye Shengtian said.
"Well, that son should rest early too." Ji Xiaoli stepped back after finishing speaking.
"Okay, come out." Ye Shengtian said after Ji Xiaoli walked out.
As soon as Ye Shengtian's words fell, a figure gradually appeared. It turned out that it was none other than Hei Yu. Hei Yu secretly followed Ye Shengtian. He had been in the barracks before, and just entered Ye Shengtian's handsome tent in stealth.
"Young master's cultivation is getting more and more powerful, and my ignorance is simply not in the eyes of the young master." Hei Yu said. Hei Yu knew that he couldn't hide Ye Shengtian, so he showed his figure directly.
"By the way, you didn't stay in the lord's mansion, why did you come here? And a few of them followed, right?" Ye Shengtian asked. Ye Shengtian was really afraid that the disobedient girls would follow him, but now he was going on an expedition, not to talk about Fengyue, otherwise he would have brought them here long ago.
In the past period of time, Ye Shengtian also ate a Mu Xiaoyue. Seeing that there were more and more women in him, Ye Shengtian felt that he could not handle it. In addition to ploughing the soil every night, if you don't satisfy those wives, you will lose face as a man.
"I came here because I missed you. I don't know about them, they should be in the lord's mansion." Hei Yu said while shaking Ye Shengtian's arm. No one would have thought that the always ruthless Hei Yu would have such a tender side. Now these few are being treated by Ye Shengtian. If they don't see Ye Shengtian for a day, they feel uncomfortable.
"Fortunately, they didn't come." Ye Shengtian patted his chest and said. If they all come, he can't handle it.
"What?" Hei Yu didn't hear what Ye Shengtian said to himself just now. Hence asked.
"No, let's do what we need to do, hehe." Ye Shengtian smiled, hugged Hei Yu, and entered the room in a flash.
Ye Shengtian had never tasted meat, so of course she wouldn't be polite when a beautiful woman came to her door. The two quickly entered the state, and a high song was sung like this. Ye Shengtian and Hei Yu ate here secretly, while in the military camp on the other side, there was a small group of soldiers dazed in the tent.
If Ye Shengtian stayed here, he would definitely scream, because his wife is here.
As soon as Ye Shengtian left, Ye Xiang suggested to follow him secretly. Ye Xiang's proposal was quickly proposed by several other women, so the women turned into soldiers and followed the army.
"I don't know what the young master is doing now?" Ye Xiang asked the girls with a look of boredom, holding her cheeks in both hands.
"I guess the young master must be studying the art of deploying troops, preparing to defeat all the enemy forces at once." Ye Linger replied without thinking.
"Come on, just like Ye Shengtian, I have already seen it, he must be fooling around with some beautiful woman now." Long Yuxuan said.
Long Yuxuan had also graduated from the Mowu Academy. After graduation, she had been hanging out with Nangong Aoxue, saying that she would protect Nangong Aoxue and not let Ye Shengtian defile her. But how did she know that Ye Shengtian had already succeeded in stealing food, and there was no need for Ye Shengtian to find him, and she would naturally find Ye Shengtian.
All the girls know Long Yuxuan's thoughts, but Ye Shengtian is not in a hurry and they have nothing to do.
"It goes without saying that it must be Sister Heiyu. She is one step ahead of us. Now that Liangguo didn't do that, I'll take off my head." It was Mu Xiaoyue who spoke.
. . . . . .
The girls then chatted for a while, and then went about their business.
In other words, Harrow got the news from the spies that the gate of Yancheng was wide open, and the army was not stationed in the city, but outside the city. It seemed that he did not know the danger was coming, or that a person who did not understand the art of war would make such an arrangement. Originally this was a strange thing, and it was done by the Ye family, so it was even more strange. Besides, even if Ye Shengtian didn't understand the art of war, there should be other generals in the army who were good at fighting.
After thinking about it for a long time, Harrow couldn't figure out what Ye Shengtian's move meant, so he invited several lieutenants to discuss it, and after everyone sat down, he said, "In the morning, I got news that the gate of Yancheng is open, The army is stationed outside the city, and the city is singing and dancing peacefully, it seems that they don't know the danger is coming, what do you think is going on?"
"General, what else do you need to consider? Let me lead my subordinates to kill them directly, and I have to kill these people who don't know the so-called Zilong Empire."
"No, this situation has not been found out, and it is not appropriate to raise troops."
"I'm afraid that there is a fraud in there. How could the Ye family not know the art of war. I'm afraid that he is tempting our army to go deep alone, and then wipe it out in one fell swoop."
"Hehe, what does he know, Ye Shengtian, a little brat. When we led the troops to fight, he was still in his mother's belly. I think he still doesn't know how to be drunk and die. General, I suggest raising troops."
"I suggest to investigate again, and then talk about it after investigating the specific situation."
"I heard that Ye Shengtian is unparalleled in wisdom. He will not be stupid enough to let us succeed in a sneak attack. I am thinking that he should be planning to lead us in, and then close the city gate to annihilate a small part of us. You must know that he only has 100,000 in his hands. Soldiers, if they fight with us recklessly, they will definitely not be our opponents."
"That's exactly what the general said."
. . . . . .
After discussing this for another afternoon, Harrow decided to investigate again. He thought that Ye Shengtian was playing tricks on him, but he was not stupid and would not be fooled. If he knew that Ye Shengtian was not armed at all, he wouldn't be mad at him.
Ye Shengtian and Harrow spent more than half a month like this. For half a month, Ye Shengtian neither entertained, nor went to defense just messing around with the girls all day. It turned out that Ye Shengtian also found out that all the girls were in the barracks a few days ago, and since they came, they didn't drive them away.
Ye Shengtian found out that they were in the military camp, so Yu Qingyi sent someone to tell Ye Shengtian, so Ye Shengtian found the girls.
On this day, Harrow summoned his subordinates again and said, "I have already received news that Ye Shengtian has been having fun with his wives and concubines all day long. Now everyone in Yancheng knows about it. I don't know what your views are?"
"It's hard to say, it may be, or it may be deliberately spread by Ye Shengtian. It stands to reason that wives and concubines should not go out with the army. Now this is a violation of the law. It is difficult to understand whether their emperor will have any opinion?"
"Hey, you don't know. The power of the Ye family has already reached, and even the emperor will give him three points. Now that he is bringing his wife and concubines, the emperor knows and won't do anything to him."
"Hey, it's just a young man with strong blood and energy. He is addicted to alcohol and horses all day. General, now is a good time to send troops."
"We have all waited for more than half a month, why can't we wait another half a month. I suggest that the general should observe it for a few more days, and don't fall for Ye Shengtian's tricks."
