Chief Pang was apprehensive when he was escorted by two soldiers to the camp of the Northwest Army, he really couldn't guarantee that he would be able to go back alive, although it was indeed the morality of soldiers that the two armies fought without killing each other, but throughout the ages, there were not a few people who did not abide by this morality.

Before he got close to the camp, there were already rangers patrolling around the camp to stop him, and Master Pang didn't wait for the rangers to draw their swords, and they had already said loudly: "I'm here to make an envoy, I want to see you Governor Chu!" ”

The two rangers glanced at each other, and one of them had already raised his sword and said, "You enter the camp alone, and no one shall accompany you." He actually took out a black strap from his body and threw it over, "Blindfolded!" ”

Master Pang was immediately a little annoyed, and the ranger had already said: "Blindfolded, we will take you into the camp, otherwise leave immediately." ”

Master Pang frowned, helpless, and motioned to his entourage to cover his eyes with a black scarf, and then felt that as soon as he rode to his side, his arms tightened, and he was picked up by the rangers and put on horseback.

The rangers left two entourages and took Master Pang into the camp by themselves, Master Pang wanted to be ordered to enter the camp to investigate, but from beginning to end, his eyes were black, but he couldn't see anything, and when the rangers stopped, they were already before a big tent, and the rangers helped Master Pang to get off the horse and went straight into the tent, and then he ripped off the black towel on Director Pang's face, and when his eyes got used to it, he found himself in the big tent, except for himself, there was only a man in a light brocade shirt opposite.

"You were sent by Governor Joe?" The man smiled: "Governor Qiao asked you to come, naturally to persuade this governor to withdraw from the army, have you thought of a rhetoric?" ”

Master Pang immediately knew that the person in front of him was Chu Huan.

"Governor Chuchu." Chief Pang arched his hand, the other party expected the matter first, Master Pang was surprised, but he didn't know what to say for a while, but he heard Chu Huan say: "Let you enter the camp, just because the governor also wants you to bring a message to Governor Qiao, the tyranny of the Qin State, the so-called new monarch, and even his own brother is an unkind generation, you go back and tell Governor Qiao, my Northwest Army entered the customs, it is to eradicate the tyranny, if anyone stands in the way and helps the abuse, the swords and guns of the Northwest Army will not be merciful." ”

Chief Pang reluctantly smiled and said, "If Governor Chu says it, the lower officials will definitely bring it." ”

At this moment, I heard a voice from outside the tent: "Chu Du, the general has sent someone to deliver the battle report!" In the midst of the words, a person hurriedly came in from outside the tent, it was Xu Shao.

Xu Shao had an excited look on his face, and after entering the account, he saw Director Pang at a glance and was stunned for a moment, but Director Pang saw Chu Huan winking at Xu Shao, Xu Shao nodded slightly, and quietly retreated.

Chief Pang was in his heart, he heard Xu Shao just mention the "war report", but he came all the way and didn't see the Northwest Army launch an attack on Tongzhou City, so how could he say the war report? Could it be that the Northwest Army is using troops in other places?

He was suspicious, but Chu Huan had already gotten up, walked to Master Pang's side, and said with a smile: "Since you are here, you are a guest, this governor does not know how to entertain you, but I still want to leave you for a meal before leaving." You are here a little later, and Bentuk has the meal prepared. "Don't say much, out of the tent, Director Pang knew that what Chu Huan said about arranging meals was purely a pretext, even if he really wanted to arrange meals, he didn't need Chu Huan, the governor, to ask in person, I thought it was the person who came in just now to report the news, Chu Huan didn't want to let himself hear too much, so he came out of the account.

Thinking of this, Chief Pang couldn't help but approach the tent door, held his breath, and sure enough, he heard Chu Huan's voice outside: "What does the battle report say?" ”

"Chu Du, in the battle of Liuzihe, our army has won a big victory." Xu Shao's voice came: "As planned, the Xishan Army entered the trap we designed, broke the embankment and discharged the flood, breaking their ranks, and our army disrupted their formation with cavalry, flanking back and forth, and the entire Xishan Army was defeated. ”

"How's Brother Wei Wei doing?" Chu Huan asked in a low voice.

Xu Shao said: "Governor Chu rest assured, the Wei Commander left the battlefield safely and did not suffer any harm. ”

"That's good, that's good."

"When the general sent someone to deliver the letter, our army had already quickly passed to Liangzhou, if nothing else, Liangzhou City will soon become the first city we capture after entering the customs." Xu Shao said softly: "The soldiers and horses of Liangzhou are almost completely annihilated, without the support of Liangzhou, Tongzhou is difficult to resist, and then we can take Tongzhou in one go!" ”

At this time, Director Pang's face was already pale, and his soul was scattered.

Chu Huan's voice still came: "Order the whole army, prepare for battle, Qiao Mingtang's soldiers and horses are stationed in the area of Xiaoshangang, the terrain there is not as good as this, the cavalry is not good to fully launch a formation battle, we have to find a way to lure Qiao Mingtang out!" ”

"Chu Du, let's go all out to attack Tongzhou City, Qiao Mingtang will never stand still, we just need to set up an ambush!" Xu Shao's voice stopped abruptly when he said this, and there was a stir outside, and Master Pang couldn't hear the sound for a while, he was a little anxious, and he even stuck to the tent door, eager to get out of the tent and listen clearly.

For a long time, there was no movement, and Director Pang was anxious, so at this time, he heard footsteps outside, and Master Pang hurriedly flashed to the side, and the tent door was opened, but he saw that Chu Huan had already come in from outside the tent, and hurriedly smiled and said: "Governor Chu, Lord Governor is still waiting for news, and he still won't bother here, go back to his life first." ”

Chu Huan smiled: "You're leaving so soon? Don't you think that we are short of food and grass, although it is not much, but it is not a problem to entertain a meal! ”

Chief Pang smiled and said, "Don't dare, Chu Du, what you explained, remember it in your heart, the military situation is urgent, so you should go back earlier and tell the governor what Chu Du said." ”

"Even so, the Doge will not keep you." Chu Huan said with a smile: "If Governor Qiao abandons the darkness and turns to the light, and joins together to participate in the grand event and eradicate the tyrannical Qin, there will be days for us to get together in the future." He said loudly: "Someone, send off!" ”

Director Pang was still blindfolded by the rangers out of the camp and sent to the camp of the Northwest Army, Director Pang did not stop, and quickly returned to the camp in Xishan, at this time it was already sunset, Director Pang hurried to Qiao Mingtang's tent, Qiao Mingtang saw that Director Pang returned safely, and said with a faint smile: "This governor expects that Chu Huan will not be difficult for you, although this person is a thief against the country, but some rules are still understood." Chief Pang, when you arrived at the Northwest Army camp, what did you find? ”

Director Pang had already stepped forward and said anxiously: "Qiao Du, it's not good!" ”

"Oh?" Qiao Mingtang was calm, "What did you find?" ”

Chief Pang looked shocked, and took two steps forward, "Qiao Du, the reinforcements from Liangzhou have been defeated, and there is no way to reinforce Tongzhou." ”

Qiao Mingtang was stunned for a moment, and then sneered: "Nonsense, did you hear it from Chu Huan's mouth?" He told you that the Liangzhou reinforcements had been defeated? ”

"I learned from Chu Huan's battle report, not Chu Huan's confession." Director Pang recounted the situation in detail at the moment, and then said: "The lower officials overheard it in the tent, and they are also preparing to attack Tongzhou, lure us into the army, set up an ambush, and take us by surprise!" ”

Qiao Mingtang first groaned for a while, then his eyes flashed, and he said with a smile: "Master Pang, you have made a great contribution!" ”

"Jordan?" Master Pang didn't understand it for a while.

Qiao Mingtang said in a deep voice: "Someone! ”

A person immediately came in outside the tent, Qiao Mingtang said: "The order goes down, the whole army eats immediately, within a moment, all the food must be eaten, before the unitary time, the whole army must complete the assembly, ready at any time, three hundred horsemen, just outside the governor's tent." ”

The soldier retreated, but Master Pang was shocked and said, "Qiao Du, who are you?" ”

"Ben Governor has said that you have done a great job." Qiao Mingtang said with a smile: "Chu Huan is cunning, but it's a pity that the traces are too heavy, he thinks he has a plan, but he just leaks his worries. ”

"Qiaodu!" Master Pang was at a loss and had not yet understood.

"You overheard their conversation, and you know that the reinforcements in Liangzhou have been defeated, and they are still preparing to set up an ambush to lure the governor to send troops, yes or no?" Qiao Mingtang sneered.

Master Pang hurriedly said: "Exactly." ”

"Not long after you entered Chu Huan's big tent, someone entered the account and sent a battle report, yes or no?"

"Yes!"

"Master Pang, don't you understand it now?" Qiao Mingtang said with a smile: "This is all Chu Huan's trickery, the news you brought back is exactly the information he wants you to pass on." ”

Director Pang was stunned, Qiao Mingtang said: "How can it be such a coincidence, you just entered the account, and his battle report will be delivered, if it is really a confidential military information, how can Chu Huan let you hear it by chance, what he wants you to know is that it is 108,000 miles away from you, and he will find a way to let you know, what he doesn't want you to know, even if it is close, you will not know." ”

Master Pang thought for a moment and reacted, "Qiao Du, you mean that Chu Huan deliberately let the lower officials hear this, and all the qiē was made up by them?" ”

"Exactly." Qiao Mingtang smiled faintly and said: "If they really want to set up an ambush and catch us off guard, it is impossible for us to know their plan, and it is even more impossible for us to know that the reinforcements in Liangzhou have been defeated, Chu Huan has taken great pains to have only one purpose, that is, to try to disturb the hearts of our army, so that we dare not act rashly!" ”

"Oh?" Master Pang came back to his senses, but he felt that what Qiao Mingtang said was quite reasonable, "Qiao Du, Chu Huan set up this carving insect trick just to make us stand still, so he is afraid that we will launch an offensive against them?" ”

"Think about it yourself, near Tongzhou City, the only thing that can be regarded as a critical terrain is the small hill where we are now stationing troops, the hills here are undulating, and many roads are narrow, even so, it is difficult to ambush soldiers and horses, and in other places outside Tongzhou City, the terrain is open, and there is no place to hide the ambush, how can he Chu Huan set up an ambush?"

Director Pang said embarrassedly: "Governor Qiao is wise, and the lower official almost missed a big thing. ”

"On the contrary, instead of making a mistake, you have made a contribution, Master Pang, before you come back, we have already found out that the number of war horses in the northwest military camp is scarce, so it can be seen that they do not have many cavalry here." Qiao Mingtang touched his beautiful beard under his chin, and his expression was solemn: "Chu Huan has a sentence that is true, their main soldiers and horses may not really be here, but to meet the Liangzhou soldiers and horses under Wei Tianqing!" ”

Chief Pang exclaimed: "Qiao Du, is the main force of the Northwest Army not under the city?" ”R1058
