Mr. Pang was very anxious. He was escorted by two soldiers to the Northwest Army camp. He really couldn't guarantee that he would be able to go back alive. Not a few.

Before approaching the camp, there were already rangers patrolling around the camp blocking them up. Before the rangers drew their swords, Mr. Pang said loudly, "I'm here as an envoy to see you Governor Chu!"

The two rangers glanced at each other, and one of them raised his knife and said, "You enter the camp alone, no one will accompany you." They actually took out a black belt from their bodies and threw it over, "Blindfold!"

Mr. Pang became a little annoyed immediately, and the ranger had already said: "Blindfold, we will take you into the camp, or leave immediately."

Master Pang frowned, helplessly, and signaled his followers to cover his eyes with a black scarf, and then he felt a horse riding beside him, his arms tightened, and he was picked up by the rangers on the horse's back.

The rangers left their two followers behind, and led Mr. Pang into the camp. Mr. Pang was ordered to enter the camp to investigate, but from the beginning to the end, his eyes were darkened, but he couldn't see anything. When the rangers stopped, It was already in front of a big tent, the rangers helped Master Pang get off his horse, and went into the tent, then pulled off the black scarf on Master Pang's face, Master Pang blinked, and when his eyes got used to it, he found himself Inside the large tent, apart from myself, there was only one man in light brocade clothes opposite.

"You were sent by Governor Qiao?" The man smiled and said, "Governor Qiao asked you to come here, of course to persuade the Governor to retreat. Have you thought about your words?"

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

"Chu...Governor Chu." Mr. Pang cupped his hands. The other party had predicted the matter first. Mr. Pang was surprised. He didn't know what to say for a while, but he heard Chu Huan say: "Let you I came to the camp just because the governor also wanted you to bring a message to Governor Qiao. The Qin State is tyrannical. Guan, is to eradicate tyranny, if anyone stands in the front and helps the tyrant, the Northwest Army will show no mercy."

Chief Pang forced a smile and said, "The governor will definitely bring the words of Governor Chu."

At this moment, I heard a voice from outside the tent: "Chu Du, the general has sent someone to send the battle report...!" Amidst the voice, a person hurried in from outside the tent, it was Xu Shao.

Xu Shao's face was full of excitement. After entering the account, he caught sight of Master Pang and was taken aback for a moment. But Master Pang saw Chu Huan winking at Xu Shao. Xu Shao nodded slightly and retreated silently.

Master Pang's heart trembled. He heard Xu Shao just mentioned the "Battle Report", but he came all the way, but he didn't see the Northwest Army attacking Tongzhou City. How could there be a battle report?Could it be that the Northwest Army is using troops in other places?

He was suspicious, but Chu Huan had already got up, walked to Master Pang, and said with a smile: "Since you are here, you are a guest. The governor doesn't know how to treat guests, but I still want to let you have a meal before leaving. You stay here for a while, and the governor will ask someone to prepare meals." Without saying much, after leaving the tent, Master Pang knew that what Chu Huan said about arranging meals was purely an excuse, and even if he really wanted to arrange meals, there was no need for Chu Huan, the governor, personally intervened. It seemed that the person came in to report the news just now. Chu Huan didn't want to hear too much, so he paid the bill.

Thinking of this, Master Pang couldn't help approaching the tent door, holding his breath, and he heard Chu Huan's voice from outside: "What did the battle report say?"

"Chu Du, our army won a big victory in the battle of Liuzihe." Xu Shao's voice came over: "Everything is as planned. Team, our army disrupted their formation with cavalry, attacking back and forth, and the entire Xishan Army was defeated."

"Brother Wei... How is Brother Wei?" Chu Huan asked in a low voice.

Xu Shao said: "Don't worry, Governor Chu, Wei Tongzhi 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 rushed to Liangzhou. If there is no accident, Liangzhou City will become the first city we capture after entering the pass." Xu Shao said softly: "Liangzhou soldiers and horses are almost The entire army was wiped out, without Liangzhou's support, Tongzhou would be hard to resist, and then we can take Tongzhou with all our might...!"

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

Chu Huan's voice still came over: "Order the whole army to prepare for battle. Qiao Mingtang's soldiers and horses are stationed around the small hills. The terrain there is not as good as here, and it is not easy for the cavalry to fully deploy in formation. Let's find a way to lure Qiao Mingtang into fighting. come out......!"

"Chu Du, let's attack Tongzhou City with all our strength. 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 burst of noise from outside. Asking for a sound, Mr. Pang couldn't hear the sound for a while, he was a little anxious, and even posted it on the tent door, wishing he could get out of the tent and listen clearly.

For a long time, there was no movement, Master Pang was anxious, and at this moment, he heard footsteps outside, Master Pang hurried aside, opened the tent door, but saw Chu Huan had come in from outside the tent, hurriedly He clasped his hands and said with a smile: "Governor Chu, the Governor is still waiting for news, I'd better stop bothering you here, it's best to go back and return to order first."

Chu Huan said with a smile: "Leaving so soon? Don't you think that we are short of food and grass, although there are not many, but a treat is not a problem...!"

Master Pang smiled sarcastically, and said: "Don't dare, Governor Chu, I will keep your confession in my heart. The military situation is urgent. I'd better go back earlier and tell the governor what Governor Chu said."

"Even so, the Governor will not keep you." Chu Huan said with a smile: "If Governor Qiao abandons the dark and turns to the bright, and joins in the great feat to eradicate Tyranny, there will still be plenty of days for us to meet in the future." He said loudly: "Come on, see off guest!"

Master Pang was still blindfolded by the rangers and left the camp, and was sent outside the camp of the Northwest Army. Master Pang returned to the Xishan camp without stopping. It was already sunset, and Master Pang hurried to Qiao Mingtang's big tent. Qiao Mingtang saw that Master Pang had returned safely, and said with a faint smile: "This governor expected that Chu Huan would not make things difficult for you. Although he is a traitor against the country, he still understands some rules. Master Pang, when you arrived at the Northwest Army camp, did you What discovery?"

Mr. Pang has already stepped forward and said anxiously: "Qiao Du, something is wrong...!"

"Oh?" Qiao Mingtang calmed down, "What did you find?"

Master Pang looked horrified, and took two steps forward, "Qiao Du, Liangzhou's reinforcements have been routed, and there is no way to reinforce Tongzhou."

Qiao Mingtang was startled, and then sneered, "Nonsense, did you hear it from Chu Huan? He told you that Liangzhou's reinforcements have been defeated?"

"Yes... I learned from Chu Huan's battle report, not from Chu Huan." Mr. Pang immediately described his experience in detail, and then said: "The officer overheard in the tent. , and they are planning to attack Tongzhou, lure us into the army, set up an ambush, and they will catch us by surprise...!"

Qiao Mingtang pondered for a while, then his eyes flickered, and he said with a smile: "Master Pang, you have made a great contribution...!"

"Qiao Du?" Mr. Pang didn't understand for a while.

Qiao Mingtang said in a deep voice, "Come here!"

Immediately a person came in from outside the tent, Qiao Mingtang said: "Give the order, the whole army will eat immediately, within a moment, all must be eaten, and before you hour, the whole army must be assembled and be on standby at any time, three hundred cavalry, in the big tent of the governor Gather outside."

The soldiers bowed their hands and retreated, but Master Pang turned pale with shock, and said in a voiceless voice: "Qiao Du, you... are you?"

"The governor said that you have made a great contribution." Qiao Mingtang said with a smile: "Chu Huan is very cunning, but the traces are too heavy. He thought he had a plan, but he just exposed his worries."

"Qiao Du...!" Master Pang was at a loss and hadn't figured it out yet.

"You overheard their conversation and knew that Liangzhou's reinforcements were defeated, and they were planning to set up an ambush to lure the governor to send troops, right?" Qiao Mingtang sneered.

Master Pang hurriedly said, "Exactly."

"Not long after you entered Chu Huan's account, someone entered the account and sent the battle report, right?"

"yes......!"

"Master Pang, don't tell me you don't understand now." Qiao Mingtang smiled and said, "This is all Chu Huan's deception. The news you brought back is exactly the information he wants you to pass on."

Master Pang was stunned, and Qiao Mingtang said: "How could it be such a coincidence, his battle report was delivered as soon as you entered the account, if it was really a confidential military situation, how could Chu Huan let you hear it by chance, he wanted you to know Yes, even if he is far away from you, he will find a way to let you know, what he doesn't want you to know, even if he is close at hand, you will not know."

Mr. Pang thought for a while, then realized, "Qiao Du, you mean, Chu Huan deliberately let the officials hear this, and they made up everything?"

"Exactly." Qiao Mingtang said with a faint smile, "If they really want to set up an ambush and catch us off guard, it's even more impossible for us to know their plan, and it's even more impossible for us to know that Liangzhou's reinforcements were defeated. Chu Huan has worked so hard , there is only one purpose, and that is to confuse our army with this, so that we dare not act rashly...!"

"Oh?" Master Pang came back to his senses, but he felt that Qiao Mingtang's words were quite reasonable, "Qiao Du, Chu Huan set up this trick to keep us on hold, so he... Instead, he is afraid that we will launch an offensive against them?"

"Think about it for yourself. The only place near Tongzhou City that can be regarded as a critical terrain is the small hill where we are stationed now. The hills here are undulating and many roads are narrow. Even so, it is difficult to ambush soldiers and horses. And Tongzhou In other places outside the city, the terrain is open, and there is no place to hide and ambush, so how could he, Chu Huan, set up an ambush?"

Master Pang said with shame: "Qiao Du is wise, the next official almost missed a big deal."

"On the contrary, not only did you make no mistakes, but you made a contribution. Mr. Pang, before you came back, we had found out that the number of war horses in the Northwest Army Camp was scarce, which shows that they don't have many cavalry here." Qiao Mingtang touched Nodding his beard, his expression was solemn: "Chu Huan is right in saying that their main force may not be here, but to meet Wei Tianqing's Liangzhou soldiers...!"

Master Pang asked in surprise, "Qiao Du, isn't the main force of the Northwest Army under the city?"
