Volume 3 Iron and Blood Chapter 342 Self-inflicted cleverness

When he was young, Yue Fei ordered Zhang Yong to come over, and after 'handing' ten taels of silver, he said to Zhang Yong: "Please also ask my brother to act as soon as possible." To tell the truth, in order to please the Cao bandits, our army has already had a strange strategy, if the brothers can subdue the brothers of the cottage as an internal response, it will be able to increase the chances of victory. But if it doesn't work, it doesn't matter, but don't delay the timing, and hope that the brother will return quickly. ”

Zhang Yong listened to Yue Fei's cautious instructions, and he was even more convinced in his heart, so he nodded his head and took the order. Just as Zhang Yong was about to leave, Yue Fei suddenly stopped him and said with a smile: "When the war is over, you and my brothers will get together, and we will definitely get drunk at that time!" ”

When Zhang Yong heard this, he felt that his nose was sore, his heart was extremely guilty, his whole body trembled, his fists were clenched tightly, and when he was about to lose his grip, he gritted his teeth and replied heavily: "Certainly!" ”

So Zhang Yong, with a complicated feeling of anxiety and shame, led his group to return to Dawang Mountain at night. When Zhang Yong arrived, it was the fifth watch at night, and there would be a checkpoint every few miles in Dawang Mountain, and Zhang Yong did not escape the scouts of the bandits, and was soon discovered. However, Zhang Yong never thought of secretly escaping back to Dawang Mountain, and persuaded his brothers to act as an internal response for Yue Fei.

Such a risky thing that will kill him at any time, Zhang Yong will never do it.

However, he said that Cao Cheng was woken up early in the morning, and when he heard that Zhang Yong and his deployment had all returned to Dawang Mountain, he couldn't help but change his complexion, and after quickly washing up, he sent someone to invite Yao Gang to meet Zhang Yong in the Juyi Hall.

When Cao Cheng saw Zhang Yong, this eccentric 'fine' man was a little smarter, a little less agile, and rarely 'revealed' a dignified and serious 'color'.

Cao Cheng's eyes widened slightly, and he first secretly cast his eyes at the small leader behind Zhang Yong, and after the eyes of the two quickly 'exchanged', Cao Cheng's expression suddenly changed, and he laughed loudly: "Hahaha!" Brother Zhang is finally back, and he wants to mess with me!! ”

In the face of Cao Cheng's warm welcome, Zhang Yong was expressionless, bowed his hand respectfully, and replied: "Thanks to the blessing of the king, the little one is back." ”

Cao Cheng saw that Zhang Yong had no appreciation, and his face couldn't help but twitch slightly. Yao Gang ordered Zhang Yong's deployment to go back and rest first. Everyone received the order and retreated one after another. After a while, only Cao Cheng, Yao Gang, and Zhang Yong were left in the Juyi Hall.

Cao Chengjin sat down across the horse? Sitting on the tiger skin seat, his eyes were impressive, and he asked in a condensed voice, "I don't know if Brother Zhang has done the job?" ”

"The king forgives the sin, Yue Fei is stubborn, cunning and 'treacherous', and the villain has not been able to convince him." Halfway through Zhang's words, suddenly Cao Cheng slapped his hands and snorted coldly: "You failed to convince Yue Fei, but you were able to come back unharmed, and there were quite a few people who went!" Zhang Yong, Zhang Yong, don't you really treat me Cao Cheng as a three-year-old child!? ”

"The king is angry. The reason why the villain was able to come back was because of Yue Fei's dispatch. ”

"Huh!? What do you mean by that!? ”

"To tell the truth, the officers and soldiers are planning an earth-shattering plan to attack Dawang Mountain. Yue Fei wanted the villain to secretly persuade the brothers in the mountains, thinking that he should do it internally!! "Zhang's words were amazing, and Cao Cheng and Yao Gang all had a sudden change in their faces when they heard it.

Suddenly, Yao Gang came back to his senses and couldn't help laughing: "Hahaha!! You quirky little slippery little slippery head, things haven't been done, but you want to be alarmist here and want to get away with it? Hum!! Do you really think that the old man and the king are three-year-olds!? ”

When Cao Cheng heard this, his face was even more 'pale' and 'gloomy', and he was about to drip water, and said coldly: "Zhang Yong, Zhang Yong." I regard you as my own brother, and I trust you so much that I entrust the lives of my entire brothers in the village to you, but you do something to do the next thing, which really disappoints me! ”

After that, Cao Cheng's 'yin' owl's eyes widened, and he was 'about to drink' to order the guards outside the sect to take Zhang Yong down and put him in prison. Suddenly, Zhang bowed with his hand and said unhurriedly: "Whether it's true or not, please ask the king to bring the map, and you will know when the time comes." ”

"Huh!? Okay, I'll see what else you measure!! Someone~~!! Cao Cheng saw that Zhang Yong, who had always been greedy for life and afraid of death, was so calm, he couldn't help frowning, and he had some ominous premonitions in his heart, and he shouted loudly.

After a while, the map was taken from the left and right, Cao Chengcheng opened it on the case, and summoned Zhang Yong and Yao Gang to come over. After Zhang Yong arrived, his eyes were impressive, and he looked at the map attentively. Cao Cheng and Yao Gang looked at each other secretly, and both of them seemed to suddenly notice something strange, but they couldn't say what it was.

Soon, Zhang Yong made a move, only to see him stretch out a finger and point it at a certain location on the map, which made Cao Cheng's eyes widen in shock.

"If the villain's guess is correct, there should be a trail behind Dawang Mountain here, which can lead to the cottage. I don't know if the villain guessed yes or no? ”

"Zhang Yong!! How did you know there was a trail here!? Could it be !? When Cao Cheng heard this, his face changed drastically, he grabbed Zhang Yong's arm, and asked with a fierce look. Yao Gang, who was on the side, was also full of surprise, it can be seen that this trail is extremely secret, if it is not carefully investigated, it is impossible to find out, and there are not many people in the cottage who know this trail and secret passage.

"Back to the king, that day Yue Fei took me to discuss with a veteran general named Cheng Bing, a general in his army. When the two of us arrived, we found that inside the tent, a group of officers and soldiers were discussing the war, and they were all gathered around a map, and they had carved chess pieces out of wooden blocks to simulate them. I was very curious when I saw that the map was very 'fine'. Later, when I asked, I learned that Yue Fei had taken precautions, and had taught his subordinates to deploy maps disguised as woodcutters and hunters in the area of Dawang Mountain half a year ago. And Cheng Bing seemed to trust Yue Fei very much, so he taught me to check the map, and it was at that time that I saw this trail, and I was very surprised, so I asked. Who knew that Cheng Bing and Yue Fei both had a big change in their faces. And! "Zhang said it in a sloppy way, without the slightest panic or contrived 'color'. Cao Cheng was shocked when he heard this, grabbed Zhang Yong's arm and couldn't help but exert a little harder, and asked hurriedly: "And what!? Come on!! ”

"This time, my brothers and I worked desperately, fighting wits and courage with the officers and soldiers, and obtaining information about the survival of the cottage for the king. The little one has nothing else to ask for, only one condition, and I hope that the king will agree to the villain. ”

"You !!"

At this time, Zhang Yong pretended to be mysterious, so angry that Cao Cheng couldn't help but be angry, thinking that this slippery head who was greedy for money wanted to ask for benefits. Suddenly, Yao Gang next to him took a step, and while casting his eyes, he shouted loudly: "King!" Please focus on the big picture!! ”

Cao Cheng was obedient, took a deep breath of evil, his anger was restricted, and he shouted: "Come on, bring me a hundred taels of gold!" ”

"Slow! The king misunderstood. As soon as Cao Cheng's words fell, Zhang Yong stopped him again. Cao Cheng's face became colder, his eyes flashed with a bit of fierce light, and he said coldly: "What!?" Aren't you too little!? ”

"Definitely. The villain is not asking for money. The villain is looking forward to the fact that if his army wins and the officers and soldiers are broken, the king can leave Yue Fei's life, and the villain will return his favor. Zhang Yong's face froze, and he rarely became so serious. Cao Cheng saw it, but he believed it a little more, secretly thinking that this money-greedy slippery head actually ignored money, this matter must be a big problem, and he must ask carefully.

Cao Cheng thought about it and quickly replied: "Okay! If he is willing to join me, I will treat him as a soldier. If he does not want to, I will let him go. ”

Zhang Yong was obedient and thanked Cao Cheng first. Yao Gang, who was on the side, was impatient to wait, and urged repeatedly. Zhang Yongcai's face was shocked, and he said in a deep voice: "But it was said that on the map at that time, there was the distribution of troops from all sides. It was at the time that the villain realized that there were thousands of soldiers and horses standing still behind the trail. The little people will find it strange that this trail obviously does not exist, why did the officers and soldiers have to work hard to get here in a big circle, but they did not take action, so they became more and more curious and asked Cheng Bing and Yue Fei. Although Cheng Bing was calm on the surface, I still caught the panic in his eyes, and he hurriedly 'touched' and 'messed' the chess pieces, just to 'blind' and 'mix' the past. ”

"Zhang Yong!! Do you mean that the officers and soldiers who are already small in strength dare to divide their troops into two routes and send one road of soldiers and horses to stand by behind our Dawang Mountain, and want to attack our village on two roads!? Yao Gang spoke sharply, his old face was still a little hideous, and he asked hurriedly.

"Humph!! Even so, with less than 10,000 officers and soldiers, can they break through our impregnable Dawang Mountain? But I don't believe it!! Cao Cheng snorted coldly, but it seemed to be emboldening himself. The corners of Zhang Yong's mouth curled slightly, and he immediately poured a basin of cold water on him, and said: "Although what the king said is reasonable, the officers and soldiers occupy an absolute disadvantage in terms of strength and geographical advantages, and it is difficult to attack Dawang Mountain, but it does not mean that this matter is absolutely impossible!" Since ancient times, many great wars that have shook the past and the present have been won by surprise soldiers. If the officers and soldiers can take us by surprise and launch a surprise attack, and wait for us to be caught off guard, and then there is Yue Fei, the pride of the sky, it will be a good thing, why is it difficult to win!? ”

Cao Cheng was obedient, and couldn't help but stumble a step in fright, his expression actually looked a little apprehensive and embarrassed, and he looked at Yao Gang anxiously. Yao Gang was also so shocked that his old eyes were full of panic, and he was busy shocking his look, and said in a condensed voice: "Zhang Yong is not unreasonable!" However, for the time being, we must first stabilize our position, carefully observe the current situation, and then take corresponding countermeasures, and absolutely must not 'make chaos' on our own, otherwise the officers and men will take advantage of it. ”

Yao Gang did have some skills, and he stabilized Cao Cheng with a few words. Cao Chengshen retracted, closed his eyes and cleared his thoughts, and after a while, he opened his eyes and said to Zhang Yong: "Until now, I will no longer hide it from you, Brother Zhang." There is indeed this trail behind Dawang Mountain, but this trail is extremely hidden, except for more than a dozen people in the village and dozens of hunting houses living nearby, no one can know.

There is also this trail is extremely narrow, generally only two people and two riders, and the area leading to the cottage is a dangerous slope and bad road, it is very difficult to walk, and it is difficult to establish a stronghold there, if you want to fill in there, it is painstaking, and if it is a march, it is like the difficulty of Shu Road, so I did not regard this trail as a thing, and it was not depicted on the map. But I heard you say this just now, if the officers and soldiers really secretly take this way, and suddenly send surprise troops, they will indeed be able to hit us by surprise, and then the officers and soldiers of the mountain 'chicken' will send troops again, and we will suffer from the enemy on our backs, and if the cottage is broken, it is not impossible! Speaking of this, Cao Cheng took a breath, grabbed Zhang Yong's shoulders tightly with both hands and said, "Brother Zhang, it's good that you reported the officers and soldiers in time, otherwise I almost fell for the tricks of the officers and soldiers, and I can't regret it!" ”

After Yao Gang's face changed again and again, he finally looked lonely and amazed, let out a long sigh, and sighed: "This time Dawang Mountain has encountered a strong enemy. The officers and soldiers not only secretly set up strange soldiers, so that we and others are in danger of being attacked by the enemy, but also secretly taught Brother Zhang to come back to the cottage and persuade the soldiers to defect, thinking that if they attack together, Dawang Mountain will be broken by the officers and soldiers!! If all of this is planned by Yue Fei, this person is too terrifying!! Even if Zhuge Kongming is reborn, it's just that!! What's even more frightening is that this person also has peerless bravery. God! It's really a man of God!! ”

Yao Gang praised repeatedly, Cao Cheng's eyes narrowed secretly, and he showed a little jealousy, and said coldly: "Hmph!" No matter how powerful this Yue Fei is, he has made a huge mistake, that is, he is too gullible to trust others. On the battlefield, for the general layout, one idea and one decision are related to thousands of 'life' lives, and even affect the trend of the situation in the world! He is so naΓ―ve, how can he be up to the task!? This time, he has been planning so far, and in the end it is not difficult to become a big tool~!? This is said to be a misstep into a thousand years of hatred!! ”

Cao Cheng was sarcastic in a cold voice, but what he said was like an arrow that 'shot' at Zhang Yong's body. Zhang Yong trembled all over, gritted his teeth, and wanted to help Yue Fei speak, but he couldn't say it. Because, he was afraid that he would anger Cao Cheng, and his 'life' would be difficult to protect. In the end, Zhang Yong, who was timid and greedy for money, still ignored his conscience and did not dare to resist, and even dared not fight for the brother who believed in him!

Cao Cheng saw that Zhang Yong looked depressed and had no 'essence', he snorted coldly in his heart, and after asking him some questions, he taught Zhang to use it. And Cao Cheng and Yao Gang discussed strategies. Until the night, the plan was decided, and the two summoned the small leader who secretly sent to monitor Zhang Yong, and after questioning, they didn't feel anything suspicious. Cao Cheng was overjoyed, so he taught him to go down and receive the reward.

"Hahaha!! Fortunately, God blessed me this time, and I couldn't let those lackeys succeed!! Cao Cheng sneered. When Yao Gang heard this, his face sank, and he said cautiously: "The victory or defeat has not been decided for a day, and the king must not relax." That Yue Fei was too powerful, if he found out the clues, he would lose a good opportunity to wipe out these officers and soldiers. In my opinion, that Zhang Yong seems to have a good relationship with Yue Fei, and I am afraid that if he misses the horse's feet, he will startle the snake. Why don't you send Hong Bing down the mountain to contact Yue Fei, what do you think, king? ”
