Qin Shizhi's Confucian junior master

Chapter 482: Wallpaper

In the rebel camp at this time, Mo Di and Mo Li naturally noticed the movement behind them. They stood in the distance and looked at the rising smoke and the Qin army's flag, and both of them fell silent.

"Have spies been sent to investigate?" Mo Li asked.

"We went. Except for a few people, all the others were killed by the Qin Army's spies. Our spies saw it clearly. They said that the Qin Army's flags were planted all over the hills, and large tracts of trees were cut down. Yes." Mo Di said.

"The Qin Army has come from afar. It is getting late now. The Qin Army will not launch an attack rashly. We send people to prepare to resist the night attack. The Qin Army is also cautious. They occupy the hills and are condescending. We want to catch them off guard. It's too late." Mo Li said, looking at the dying sun.

"Well, I will send people to strengthen patrols." Mo Di said.

At this time, Ziyou was giving instructions to the captain of Changguo County.

"We can only deceive the rebels temporarily. If we don't launch an attack tomorrow, they will see through us." Ziyou said.

"But we only have 800 people, how can we fight with 50,000?" Changguo County Lieutenant said.

The Changguo County Lieutenant looked at the exhausted horses that were already running on the road. Many branches were tied to the tails of these horses. The running of the horses stirred up countless dust, and he deceived the rebels. Ziyou's plan reminded the Changguo prefect that when the king of Lu and Jinggong of Qi met to sign an alliance, Li Mi, the official of Qi, gathered troops to do music work in the name of entertainment after the ceremony between the princes of the two countries. Take the opportunity to capture the Marquis of Lu and kill the scattered Lu soldiers. Confucius had already prepared for it, and asked people to use the same method not far from the alliance meeting to pretend that there were enough soldiers in the Lu army, so that Qi Jinggong did not dare to act rashly.

"Calculate the time, Rao An's Qin army should have arrived. Send someone to check the news. If you find the Qin army, tell them to come here quickly. If not, we can only use other methods Yes." Ziyou said.

"Okay." Changguo County Lieutenant said.

Ziyou looked helplessly at the rebel camp in the distance. He could still charge 800 people, but there was nothing he could do about 50,000 people. If these 800 soldiers were all elite soldiers like the Qin army, he could lead a charge and directly overwhelm the opponent and make them flee. However, these 800 men were just pretending. If they really charged, they might be scared to the point of losing their legs. Soft. As for the night attack, Ziyou immediately gave up the idea. It would be strange if the other party knew they were coming and hadn't stepped up patrols yet.

"If you send people to spread the news among the rebels, they will say that we are the Qin army and disrupt their morale," Ziyou said.

"No!" The Wei family of Changguo County obeyed Ziyou's orders unconditionally.

After nightfall, the sent spies had not returned yet, so the Changguo county lieutenant shook his head at Ziyou.

"It seems that the army has not arrived yet. I can only go there by myself." Ziyou said, looking at the rebel camp in the distance.

"Sir, are you going to break into the camp alone again?" Changguo County Lieutenant asked in surprise.

"No, I'm just going to inquire about the enemy and see what's going on with them. I'll see if there's anything I can do." Ziyou said.

"Sir, be careful." Changguo County Lieutenant said.

"promise!"

Then Ziyou, dressed in blood clothes, headed towards the rebel camp. Smelling the smell of blood emanating from his clothes, Ziyou felt that he was now more like a blood-clothed marquis than Bai Yifei. When they arrived at the outskirts of the rebel camp, Ziyou discovered the spies hiding in the dark.

After quietly getting rid of the surrounding scouts, Ziyou continued to sneak in. Although Ziyou is not a master of Qinggong, he can still sneak in without anyone noticing.

Taking advantage of the lax guard, Ziyou used his Qinggong skills to sneak into the camp instantly. The rebels who were watching at night only felt a red shadow flash in front of their eyes, but could not see anything clearly.

"Did you see anything red just now?" the soldier said, rubbing his eyes.

"Did you see it wrong? It's completely dark under the black lights, how can there be anything red?" Another soldier said impatiently.

"Impossible, I definitely saw it right. Something red really floated past just now." The soldier said.

"You kid, don't lie to me! There is nothing red in the middle of the night." The soldier swallowed and said, "Unless it is"

The two looked at each other without saying a word.

"Are you sure you saw it correctly?" the soldier asked.

"No, I'm sure. Why don't you go over and have a look?"

"Me? I'm not going, I still have to be on duty." The soldier in question shook his head repeatedly.

Apart from these two soldiers, Ziyou was walking back and forth in the camp. Many soldiers saw a red shadow flashing in front of them, and all of them became nervous. Soon Ziyou hid outside a tent, looking helplessly at his bloody clothes. He wanted to change his clothes, but he didn't have any.

"You said these damn rebels, why did they let us attack the city? Aren't they just worried that we are too powerful and want to consume our strength? I took 20,000 people to join them and made an agreement to wait until the city of Zibo is captured , they gave me a high salary and a marquis, but now they obviously don't want to fulfill the agreement, and they are worried that I will rebel, so they sent all my soldiers to attack the city today." An angry voice came from the camp.

Ziyou approached the voice and began to listen carefully. Inside the camp, two men in armor were drinking.

"Brother Ning, please be patient. Since we have boarded this pirate ship, we don't have to say anything. When we opened the city gate to surrender in Lixia City, we should have thought of today." Another person said.

"What do you know? I fell into the trap at that time. The army was mobilized by them. The city must not be able to be defended, so I surrendered. They promised to give me these things, but now they want to cross the river and demolish the bridge. "The man called Brother Ning slammed the bowl in his hand on the table in dissatisfaction.

"What else can we do now that we have reached Zibo City? Are we rebelling now? If we had a chance before, Mo Di Mo Li has 30,000 people in his hands now. We lost many brothers in the attack today. , there are already less than 20,000 people." Another person said.

"Damn it, I heard that the Qin army has arrived, right behind us. The people below said that the Qin army has at least ten thousand people to support it. Are we enough people to fight the Qin army? I think we still have It's better to think of a way out as soon as possible. I followed them to rebel in order to get promoted and make a fortune. It's a real loss to want my life now!" Brother Ning folded his arms and said depressedly.

"It's a pity that we can't get in touch with the people in the city or the Qin army, otherwise we still have a chance." Another person said.

One of them was the county captain of Lixia named Ning Huan, and the other was the county magistrate named Gaoling. When the rebels attacked Lixia City, they saw that they were outmatched and surrendered decisively. After joining the rebels, Mo Di Mo Li promised a large sum of money in order for the two of them to join them in attacking Zibo. Both of them are weaklings who fall when the wind comes. They will join whoever is more advantageous.

Ziyou listened to the conversation between the two outside and had an idea in his mind. After seeing no one around, Ziyou went directly into the camp.

Ning Huan and Gao Ling, who were drinking and lamenting, were about to get angry when they saw someone breaking into the camp, but then they saw Zi You dressed in blood, and they were frightened to death.

Ning also took out the sword from his waist, pointed it at Ziyou and said

"Are you a human or a ghost!?" Ziyou dodged and snatched the sword from Ning Huan's hand, and put it on Ning Huan's neck. Ning Huan, who was in a daze, suddenly felt a chill in his neck and knelt down directly. Gao Ling, who was beside him, also knelt down after seeing this.

"Master Ghosts and Gods, we didn't mean to offend. I don't know how we alarmed you, please forgive me!!" Gao Ling said with a hint of crying in his voice.

"I'm not a ghost." Ziyou said.

Hearing Ziyou's words, the two of them were stunned for a moment, and then heard Ziyou's next words before they could even breathe a sigh of relief.

"I am a reinforcement from the Qin State, sent to inquire about the enemy's situation."

"Ah!!" Ning Huan and Gao Ling were shocked. Obviously, Qin's army scared them more than ghosts and gods.

"Who are you two!?" Ziyou asked, looking at the two of them.

Ning Huan and Gao Ling looked at each other. The meaning in their eyes was the same. As two people who were just outsiders, they immediately understood that this was a good opportunity to hug each other.

"Sir, please sit down first. Let me pour you a glass of wine and let's talk slowly. We were all forced to join the rebels." Gao Ling smiled flatteringly and wanted to get up, but Ziyou gave you a cold look and continued. Kneeling on the ground.

"Sir, I am Ning Huan, the county captain under Lixia, and he is the county magistrate, Gaoling. The two of us do not want to join the rebels to attack Zibo. We are really forced to have no choice." Ning Huan said.

"Yes, yes, sir." Gao Ling also agreed.

The two began to make up lies, claiming that they could not bear to see the rebels massacre the common people, so they had no choice but to surrender to the rebels. But in fact, they had always wanted to abandon the dark side and surrender to the bright side, but they could not contact Zibo. Inside the city, it was impossible to contact the Qin army.

"So you want to abandon the darkness and turn to the light?" Ziyou said, looking at the two of them.

"Yes, please give us a way out. We are willing to work with the Qin army to defeat the rebels." Ning also said.

"It's empty talk. You two write me a letter." Ziyou looked at the two of them and said.

Ziyou saw clearly what kind of people Ning Huan and Gao Ling were. If they didn't catch them, no one would be sure whether they really wanted to surrender or whether they were pretending to surrender. Ning Huan and Gao Ling were stunned for a moment when they heard that the Qin army had arrived, and the rebels would be defeated no matter what. It didn't matter if they set up a pledge now. On the contrary, it would better show their determination to abandon the dark side and surrender to the bright side.

"Okay, I'll write it right away." Gao Ling said as he wanted to get up.

"No need." Ziyou cut Ning Huan's robe and threw it on the ground. He put their hands on the sword blade and made a cut.

Gao Ling looked at his hand in pain. Under Zi You's eyes, Gao Ling quickly wrote a blood letter on his robe with his index finger, and left his name on it. Ning Huan, who was on the side, also quickly wrote his name next to Gao Ling.

Ziyou picked up the blood book on the ground and nodded after making sure that the two of them were not cheating.

"Very good. Tomorrow I will have the army call for formation in front of the formation. Then I need you two to join me in flanking the rebels."

"Okay." Ning nodded and said.

Ning was also very aware of the strength of his army. If the Qin army came to attack, Mo Di and Mo Li's elite troops would definitely be in the middle, and their soldiers would support them on the flanks.

"Do you know where the grain, grass and horses are?" Ziyou asked.

"I know, I know. The food and grass are behind our camp, which is heavily guarded. The horses are behind the right side, and there are two to three hundred horses inside." Gao Ling nodded.

"Two or three hundred? These rebels are really rich." Ziyou sighed.

Qi State, not Zhao State, and Qin State did not have their own horse farms, so war horses were scarce. In the past, they relied on sea salt to exchange war horses with Qin and Qi. But since Qin State met its own salt needs, Qi State's war horses The source is directly reduced by half. Zhao State's own needs are great, and the relationship with Qi State is also good and bad, so Qi State's war horses are particularly scarce. The rebels can actually have two to three hundred war horses, which really surprises Ziyou.

"I dare not hide it. I accidentally heard Mo Di and Mo Li say that the person behind them is the clan prince Tian Zhan." Gao Ling said in a low voice.

"Tian Zhan? Is it really him?" Ziyou was a little surprised.

When he was in Dongjun, Zhu Rong also said that Tian Zhan was their co-conspirator, but according to Luowang's intelligence, Tian Zhan was just an unpopular Qi clan member, and he had no soldiers or power. He was originally Expelled to Xue Ling City, it was even more of a life of debauchery. So Ziyou thought Tian Zhan was just a person pushed by the real person behind the scenes to confuse others.

"It's indeed him. I remembered it. Although Tian Zhan is inconspicuous in the clan, he has an uncle who is a wealthy businessman in Qi State. Businessmen have always been regarded as inferior people. A businessman's daughter has always been regarded by the clan. He didn't like it, so Tian Zhan was not welcomed by the clan after he was born. Before, he also advocated in the clan to restore Qi's military preparedness and unite other countries to resist Qin. At that time, everyone thought that Tian Zhan had been isolated for too long, He wanted to say something shocking and attract attention, which made the clan even more disgusted with him, so he went to Xueling City." Ning Huan suddenly remembered what happened to Tian Zhan.

"How do you know this?" Ziyou asked.

"Before I became Lixia County Lieutenant, I served as a garrison in Zibo, and I have heard about this matter." Ning also said.

"I see. You must remember what I told you two. I will bring people to attack the rebels at noon tomorrow. As long as I fight with the rebels, you will attack the rebel center from the flanks." Ziyou said.

"promise."

Ziyou put the blood book away and left the camp.

According to Ning Huan and Gao Ling, Ziyou found the rebels' food and fodder. At this time, the rebel soldiers were patrolling. After seeing that there were not many of them, Ziyou did not enter rashly, but headed towards the stables of the military horses. And go.

Compared to the soldiers guarding the grain and grass, there was only a group of soldiers on the stable side, about ten people, three of whom were still dozing.

Ziyou pulled out Zhanlu and quickly came to the five patrolling people. Before the other party could react, a silver light flashed and the five people's throats were cut directly by Ziyou. The other five people who had reacted had not spoken yet and could only see what was in front of them. There was a flash of red clothes, and five people fell down, clutching their throats.

After handling the five people easily, Ziyou opened all the flaps of the stable, picked up a torch and threw it directly into the stable.
