Chapter 508 Conspiracy(1/2)
Yang Junhai seemed to be unable to hold his tongue straight: "Quick... look, Chengzhi's flag... Could it be that he has been captured alive by the enemy?"
Li Shao raised his eyes and looked, then turned his head and looked at Yang Jun as if he were an idiot: "If I put up a flag with the word 'Chang' on the top of the city, do you think I have captured Chang Yi alive?"<
/p>
Yang Jun was startled, and his face turned red at a speed that was visible to the naked eye. He was so embarrassed that he wished he could give himself a slap.
It’s really a demonic obstacle: if Chang Yizhi really captures Li Chengzhi, he only needs to be escorted to the city, and the tens of thousands of defenders on the city will not dare to fire a random arrow. Why hold up a flag and pretend to be in the enemy’s formation?
"What is Chang Yizhi doing?"
Yang Jun relieved his embarrassment and asked suspiciously, "You want to mess up the morale of our army with just a flag?"
“It’s really baffling!”
Li Shao responded casually, looked at it carefully for a few more times, and his eyes suddenly condensed.
"It seems that it was not Chang Yi who did it... Look, there is another small flag under the big flag. Is it called 'Zhongbing Joins the Army·Li'?"
Yang Jun's eyes were better. He squinted and saw that, as Li Shao said, there was another small flag under Li Chengzhi's flag.
Chinese soldiers joining the army?
During this rebellion, Li Chengzhi did not establish a separate central army, but divided it into two battalions, the east and west, from Luoyang, which has not been changed. Therefore, the only ones that can be called Li Chengzhi's central army are the two battalions guarding him on the left and right.
.
The general of Wei is Yuan Xi, the eldest son of Wang Yuanying of Zhongshan. Now he has been moved by Li Chengzhi to serve under Li Shao. Further down, there are only a hundred or so retainers of the Li family. I remember it seems that a pair of brothers serve as chief and deputy? Marshal, the eldest one
Generally thin, lean and short, like a monkey...
"It's Li Rui... But I remember last autumn, when there was internal strife between the tigers and Yuan Shiwei and Chengzhi were competing, it was Li Huiyuan (Li Rui's nickname) who shot the famous He Ba with his continuous arrow skills.
Yun abandoned his gun and admitted defeat."
Is it him?
Yang Jun suddenly thought about it.
"Let's see..."
Li Shao pointed forward again, "There are nearly a hundred armored cavalry under that banner, all wearing tiger and bengar armor, and the military appearance is quite grand. But except for Chengzhi and Li Rui, there is no one else wearing the banner, so I
It is expected that it should be the messenger sent by Chengzhi!"
Yang Jun immediately understood: If it was lobbying, it should at least be someone with a high position and a reputation like Diao Zheng or Li Daoyuan. But if it were a lowly person like Li Rui, naturally he could only deliver letters and messages...
…
"What does Chengzhi intend to do with this move?"
"I don't know!"
Li Shao shook his head, "But I think he must have learned that Changyi had divided his troops to attack Fufeng, Qishan and others. He couldn't bear the suffering of the people in Guanzhong, so he decided to implement a delaying strategy..."
How can a delaying strategy be so easy?
When the two armies are fighting, they will do anything they can. Not to mention sending someone to deliver a message, even if Chang Yoshizhi holds the sword on his neck, he may not agree.
"Now that you and I are trapped to death, and the news has been cut off, it is useless to be anxious. So don't pay attention, just fight..."
Although the truth is such a truth, how can you ignore it?
Yang Jun was so curious that he almost burst out of curiosity. He was thinking about changing things, but suddenly he had a wrong thought: "The person who meets Li Rui at this time must be Chang Yizhi. Why don't we shoot him?"
"You think I haven't thought about it?"
Li Shao sighed loudly, "The flag is at least sixty feet away from here, a full hundred and twenty paces. After counting the whole army, only Chengzhi and Yuan Zhi have such arm strength. The accuracy of the city crossbow is too poor, and it cannot hit even one out of ten, so
It’s better not to cause more trouble..."
What else?
Yang Jun secretly thought it was a pity and looked at the enemy camp with concentration.
More than a hundred tigers and soldiers have all dismounted and are drowned in the enemy soldiers. But the two flags still stand proudly, fluttering in the wind.
Yang Jun couldn't help but sigh secretly, thinking that Chang Yi was really kind. If it were him, even if he didn't kill the messenger, he would definitely not let the enemy commander's flag stand in front of his own formation...

……
Li Rui was secretly uneasy, but he held his head high and his chest high as he walked, feeling very calm.
It's a pity that I'm a little shorter and thinner, and my appearance is a little weird.
The personal guards who came with him were all isolated, and a dozen Confederate soldiers were brought in, carrying various gift boxes, to accompany him into Chang Yizhi's handsome account.
Chang Yizhi had already taken off his iron helmet and sat down at the table, looking at Li Rui with interest.
Chang Yizhi was shocked when he learned that Li Chengzhi had sent an envoy to visit him and had prepared a heavy gift.
When the two parties were fighting to the death, Li Chengzhi's move really confused him.
Ask yourself, at this time, he should be considered to be at a disadvantage for Changyi, and his failure has been exposed. Therefore, whether it is lobbying or planning, it should be replaced by him?
It wasn't just him, everyone who learned that Li Chengzhi had sent envoys was so curious that they died.
Pei Sui took the opportunity to make a suggestion: After half a day of strong attack, not only was there no success achieved, but more than 10,000 casualties were caused. If this was the case, morale would be greatly reduced and the morale of the army would be weakened. It would be better to stop fighting for the time being...
At a time when Chang Yi is in a dilemma, he is worried that he can’t find an excuse, so this is exactly what he wanted to say.
He simply ordered a temporary truce and summoned all his confidants and idle generals.
Therefore, at this time, there were many generals standing in the tent, and the cold light was threatening. Those fierce eyes seemed to be piercing Li Rui's face like arrows.
There were many people with disdain in their eyes, as if they were mocking Li Chengzhi for sending such a poor person since there was no one in his tent.
But Li Rui was calm and calm...
"Chinese soldiers joining the army?"
Chang Yizhi's voice was steady and powerful, "Must he be a confidant of Duke Li?"
"Exactly!"
Li Rui bowed in a neither humble nor overbearing tone, and replied loudly: "Since I can remember, I have been the companion of my husband. After joining the army, I became the commander of the bodyguard of the husband, and he has always been at his side."
Reading companion?
I forgot that the ancestor of the Li family in Jingzhou was Li Xun, an honest official of the Eastern Han Dynasty, who passed down his family through "Mao Shi"...
After pondering for a while, Chang Yizhi said bluntly: "People in the Ming Dynasty do not do secret things. Why did Li Chengzhi so rouse the crowd and send you here with great fanfare? Is it possible? He knew that he was weak and expected to be defeated.
So you want to stop fighting in order to survive?"
Defeat your eldest mother?
A burst of anger emerged from Li Rui's heart, which heated up his head and almost blurted out his greetings to Changyi's family.
Nowadays, it is clear who is strong and who is weak, and Chang Yoshizhi knows it very well. But he still secretly mocks Lang Jun for begging for mercy from him, and clearly wants to anger himself...
No wonder Lang Jun said that if the fourth uncle came, he would definitely not be able to get everything right?
Even I can barely bear this bad breath, let alone my fourth uncle who is getting more and more angry every day?
Li Rui took a breath, suppressed the anger in his chest, and replied in a cold voice: "The Marquis of Ruochang County will only criticize and insinuate like a woman, so it doesn't matter if the husband's letter is not submitted, please let me go when I return."
Yes...
As for who is strong and who is weak at this time, and who wins and who loses in the end, everyone can see it. Why should the county magistrate turn black into white and confuse right and wrong? If you are unwilling, just fight..."
"Presumptuous!"
Immediately, several generals shouted angrily, as if they were about to step forward to arrest Li Rui.
Chang Yi Zhihun waved his hand nonchalantly: "If Li Chengzhi were to face him, I would definitely tell him the truth. But you are just a little pawn. I am too lazy to give you a hard time. But if you still dare to speak nonsense, don't blame me.
I cut off your sacrificial flag... Even if you say you have a letter, why don't you submit it?"
Li Rui had already made up his mind to become a benevolent person if he failed, so how could he be frightened by his few words?
He calmly dug into his pocket, took out a leather envelope, and handed it over.
The confidant took it and was about to present it to Chang Yi, but he waved his hand and said: "Read it!"
Hearing the word "read", Li Rui's face showed a strange look.
When Lang Jun explained to him, he was worried about how to let more southern generals know what was written in the letter, but he didn't expect Chang Yi to be so vegetarian?
Li Rui pretended to be embarrassed, and pretended to say: "County magistrate, I am afraid that it is inappropriate to make this secret public in front of so many people... Why don't you send me back?"
The capital of Changyi was laughed out of anger.
He thought what kind of clever strategy Li Chengzhi would use? But after hearing this, he suddenly understood: It turned out to be a counterattack?
When I used this trick to harm others, Li Chengzhi was probably still in his mother's womb. If he used it on himself at this time, wouldn't it be a joke?
Li Chengzhi, who makes Yuan Li, Fu Luo and others fear him like a tiger and change his expression when talking about it, is that just that...
Chang Yizhi was sarcastic in his heart, and swung his hand down like a knife and an axe: "A man can tell others everything he wants, read it!"
"No!"
