Back to the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty

Chapter 149 Nearly Assassinated
Feng Yao immediately adopted Xu Shu's suggestion and asked Bo Mengjian to bring jewelry and watches to the court to report on his duties.

Looking at the setting sun outside, Feng Yao ordered to leave the court, and let the officials and officers of the counties go to perform their duties. In the end, only the generals in the army and Xu Shu, the military adviser, were left.

Feng Yaodao: "Everything has been decided now, but the army is still in chaos, which is extremely unfavorable for our army's next battle. What good strategy do you guys have?"

As soon as the generals heard Feng Yao mentioning the matter about the army, they immediately got excited and began to discuss in low voices.

Although Feng Yao just mentioned this matter, most of the generals already guessed that there would be a major adjustment. After capturing Pingyu City yesterday, almost all of them had some ideas in their hearts, and at this time they confirmed each other After a while, the generals stopped and spoke one by one in order.

Ji Lingdao: "My lord, our army is relatively large now, and my subordinates think that the soldiers should be subdivided. In each school, the three types of arms, swords and shields, long spears, and short bows must be equipped. This will be beneficial to each school. Fight independently!"

Feng Yao nodded. It was mentioned in "Sima Law": If soldiers are not mixed, it will be disadvantageous. Long soldiers are used for defense, and short soldiers are used for defense.

Therefore, in the use of troops, every army that can fight independently must have multiple arms, otherwise it is easy for the enemy to find its weak points, and it is easy to be defeated!
Ji Ling's proposal is quite satisfactory. Although there are no major highlights, it must be considered.

"My lord, the army is now divided into multiple schools. Although each school has its own army commander to manage food and grass, the transportation between the schools is also relatively chaotic, and each school's marching and fighting, the mobility is also greatly restricted. Set up an independent grain transportation team!" Wei Yan saw that there were no words on the left and right, so he spoke first.

Feng Yao's eyes lit up. During this siege battle, Feng Yao already felt that every school has its own way of food management. This is an issue that must be taken seriously!
Feng Yaodao: "Mr. Wen's words are very reasonable. Who do you think is the most suitable for this job?"

At this time, Gong Du got up and said with a bow: "My lord, I am willing to take this position!"

Transporting grain is definitely not a good job, there are few opportunities to make meritorious service, it is easy to be targeted by the enemy, and it is most likely to make mistakes. Feng Yao did not expect that Gong Du would take the initiative to take up this position, and was moved in his heart. He scanned the crowd and saw General had no objection, so he said: "Then there is General Lao Gong!"

Afterwards, the generals put forward some reasonable suggestions one after another, and Feng Yao adopted them one by one, and formulated the military affairs for the next day. All were promoted, and each battalion was required to select a group of the most elite soldiers to expand Feng Yao's personal lineup.

When it was getting dark, my mother, Mrs. Feng, came again to send a message that things for Huishouchun were all ready, and I would say goodbye to Feng Yao early in the morning, so I hope Feng Yao will go back to Taolinju in the evening and get together for another night.

Feng Yao thought for a while, everything in tomorrow's county was basically arranged, so he led Xu Chu, Dai Ling, and Yang Wu out of the city and returned to Taolin Residence.

……

On the night of the second day of junior high school, the moon could hardly be seen. Just less than a mile away from the city, Feng Yao heard something like a cat meowing in the distance. It was strange, but the guard Xu Yu suddenly changed his expression and said in shock: "Protect the lord!" ! There are assassins!"

As soon as the words fell, two bowstrings were heard. At this time, Dai Ling had no time to think, and he raised his shield to block Feng Yao's body, and all the relatives also heard the sound and surrounded Feng Yao, and lowered Feng Yao. Yao's head.

All this happened in just a short moment. The moment before, he was marching towards Taolinju with a torch in the night, but he was ambushed at this moment! !

Feng Yao didn't have time to think about it, saving his life is the most important thing, now is not the time to pretend to be a hero, when he heard Xu Chu's first warning, he quickly lowered his body and hid himself under the guard of the crowd. When he got up, he heard the sound of "dang" when an iron arrow hit the Dailing steel shield. At the same time, a follower beside Feng Yao fell down powerlessly, and on his forehead, a The iron arrow has penetrated the entire skull and is dead.

"Beware of bows and arrows! Defend with shields!"

At this time, Dai Ling shouted and took a step back. Several entourages with shields immediately surrounded him and blocked all attack directions with their shields.

At this time Xu Chu had discovered the assassin's hiding place, roared angrily, and led several of his followers to chase into the darkness on the left, Yang Wu also ordered his followers to scatter to search for the assassin.

The assassin has been silent since the two arrows raided. Feng Yao's subordinates have searched within a hundred meters of Fang Yuan, but they did not find the assassin, but they brought back the corpses of two scouts. These two scouts Feng Yao had seen before. A few faces, just don't know the name.

Yang Wu knelt down and said: "This subordinate is guilty of capital punishment, for failing to protect the lord, please forgive me!"

Feng Yao said: "It's not your fault, I didn't expect to meet an assassin so close to the city, just be careful in the future."

Then Feng Yao, in order to prevent another assassin attack, ordered Yang Wu to lead ten entourages to go ahead to explore the way.

After waiting at the same spot for a while, Xu Chu came back dragging the corpse of an assassin in black, and said, "My lord, this thief has chewed poison and died!"

Feng Yao ordered people to light a torch, and saw that the assassin's seven orifices had black blood flowing out, his face was blue, and there was no other injury on his body, obviously he died of poisoning, so he said: "Take this assassin's body back to the camp first, and offer a reward for his arrest tomorrow." Party!"

Xu Chu obeyed and asked about Yang Wu, Feng Yao told him that he had gone to explore the way, Xu Chu felt relieved and said, "My lord, this assassin must be from Pei Kingdom!"

"How do you know?" Feng Yao asked.

"The meowing sound is a trick commonly used by rangers in the Pei Kingdom, so I know it." Xu Chu replied, and after a pause, he continued: "This must be the assassin sent by Cao Cao, and Cao Cao must have known about the envoy he sent. Killed by us!"

Feng Yao nodded, with a glint in his eyes, he said coldly: "I never thought that Cao Cao would actually use such a dirty trick!"

The attendant who died after blocking an arrow for Feng Yao was already carried by one of his attendants, and wanted to carry it back to the camp, but the other attendants were all sad and resentful, when they heard Xu Chu say After it was the assassin sent by Cao Cao, three of his relatives stood up, knelt in front of Feng Yao, and said sadly: "My lord, my brother died at the hands of the Cao thief, and we are willing to go to Cao Ying in person to assassinate Cao Cao." , to avenge this!"

Feng Yao didn't answer directly. If he didn't allow it, he would definitely disappoint his followers. If he agreed, it might not help the matter. Thinking about Cao Cao's treacherous and cunning man, he could think of using an assassin to eradicate his opponents. Be very careful, it is almost impossible to find an opportunity to assassinate!Let these three relatives go to revenge and assassinate, not only will they fail, but they will die in vain!

Each of these followers is the elite of the elite, not only highly skilled in martial arts, but also loyal, and they accompany Feng Yao every day, and have a deep relationship. Even if one sacrifices, it is enough to make Feng Yao heartbroken. If there is a possibility of success, Feng Yao will still consider agreeing to his going, but now, Feng Yao cannot agree to the request of the three of them! !
