: First ritual and then sergeant

Just as Yang Yuanqing led 10,000 cavalry across the Yellow River and rushed towards Wagang Village, Wagang Village had already received a message from a spy. The latest chapter of the Holy Temple

Wagang Village suddenly became nervous. Just before receiving the news, Wagang Village was still immersed in the joy of victory.

More than half a month ago, Zhang Ping, the general of Huben Lang stationed in Liyangcang, led 5,000 infantry and cavalry to suppress the bandits, but was defeated by the Wagang army using the complex terrain. The Sui army returned defeated. The Wagang army seized a large amount of armor, weapons, war horses, and countless tent grains. At the same time, five hundred Sui soldiers who were willing to surrender to the Wagang army, which greatly increased the strength of Wagang Village.

Just as the Wagang Village was about to do a big battle with a hundred times confidence, a piece of news that worried them came, and Yang Yuanqing led 10,000 cavalry again to encircle and suppress Wagang Village.

Yang Yuanqing's reputation has spread all over the world. He led a large army to make Wagang Village face the most severe test since the uprising, and life and death are on the front line.

In the tent of the matter, seven or eight Wagang Village leaders were nervously discussing countermeasures. Zhai Rang stood in front of the map with his hands behind his back and stared at the map for a long time. After leading the hungry people to attack Beicheng in the capital a few years ago, he was released by Yang Yuanqing. Later, he was introduced to work as a clerk in the Dongjun County Office. Unexpectedly, he was reported half a year ago that he had led the hungry people to cause trouble in the capital. He was thrown into a death row and waited for the death to be executed. One of his friends happened to be a prison guard, so he risked his life to let him go.

Zhai Rang was desperate, so he led his brother Zhai Hong, nephew Mohou and friend Wang Ruxin to rise up in Wagang and gathered hundreds of people to rebel. Soon, his old friends Bing Yuanzhen, Jia Xiong, and Shan Xiongxin, a Shangdang native who killed and fled to Dongjun, and Xu Shiji, a son of a wealthy family in Dongjun, also came to surrender, which quickly strengthened the momentum of Wagang Village.

But at this time Zhai Rang never thought that a decision of his half month ago caused a huge disaster. If he knew that there would be the consequences of today, he would not have attacked Yuwen Il no matter what.

Zhai Rang was very regretful, but regret was useless. At this time, he could only take one step at a time.

Zhai Rang turned around and said to everyone in a deep voice: "Yang Yuanqing, I have dealt with him back then. I am very skilled and I am definitely not a brave man. I don't want to exaggerate, but I still want to tell everyone that his arrival has caused Wagang Village to face life and death. What should we do? Let's talk about it. The latest chapter of the Holy Temple."

Zhai Rang called himself a general, and under his command, the left commander commander was Xu Shiji, the right commander was Shan Xiongxin, and Bing Yuanzhen was Sima, in charge of logistics and administration, Jia Xiong was the military advisor, and the other generals were all the school commanders.

Everyone looked at the military advisor Jia Xiong. Jia Xiong was about forty years old and was a wealthy man in Weicheng. Because of his arrival, Wagang Village obtained extremely precious money and grain, and made Wagang Village embark on the road of rapid development. Therefore, Zhai Rang's brother Zhai Hong took the initiative to give him the position of the second leader.

Jia Xiong was good at divination, but his strategy was not good. Seeing that everyone was looking at him, he couldn't help but smile bitterly: "I have already divined a divination in the morning, which is a sign of great danger. Yang Yuanqing's arrival will be extremely unfavorable to Wagang Village."

He didn't know what to do, so Zhai Rang looked at Xu Shiji. Xu Shiji was a civil and military genius. Zhai Rang valued him very much, so he opposed the opinions and made him the third leader and commanded a thousand soldiers in the village.

Xu Shiji understood what Zhai Rang meant, and asked himself to express his opinions. He stood up and said to everyone: "Everyone, please listen to me."

Xu Shiji was the youngest among the generals in the tent, but he was the most resourceful. If Jia Xiong had not been very prestigious in the local area, everyone would have regarded him as his military advisor.

Xu Shiji sorted out his thoughts and said calmly: "First of all, I think that although Yang Yuanqing's arrival puts great pressure on Wagang Village, we are far from the end of our lives. First of all, we have the hostages they want. Yuwen I and two hundred guards, I have interrogated them one by one. Among these two hundred guards, there are many children of officials who are afraid of being afraid of being a mouse. Yang Yuanqing does not dare to attack us for the time being."

"laugh!"

Jia Xiong sneered, "Young Master Xu is thinking too simple! Why do you say that Yang Yuanqing cares about those hostages? He is famously cruel and ruthless. Yu Wen Is going to investigate him again and wants to use hostages to threaten him. I think it is meaningless."

"I agree with the military advisor's statement!"

Sima Bing Yuanzhen glanced at Xu Shiji and said slowly: "Don't put too much hope on the hostages."

Xu Shiji blushed and said, "I haven't finished saying anything. Can I ask me to finish saying it and then raise objections?"

Zhai Rang nodded, "Master Xu continued to say!"

Xu Shiji then said, "I'm not saying that Yang Yuanqing must care about the hostages and will definitely not attack us. If that is the case, he doesn't have to lead troops. He brings a few ox carts and puts money and supplies to redeem people. I just said that hostages are his concern. He will not attack Wagang Village easily unless he has no choice. In this way, he will give us time...."

"etc!"

This time it was Zhai Rang who interrupted him, "What does the time Xu Duwei refers to?"

Xu Shiji sighed and said, "I'm talking about the time we have transferred."

A whisper suddenly sounded in the big tent, and Jia Xiong sneered even more, "Before fighting, let's talk about withdrawing first, what's the idea?"

Xu Shiji said loudly: "Everyone, stay with the green mountains, and don't be afraid of burning firewood. Yang Yuanqing is a cavalry. We walk in the rivers, Yang Yuanqing lives in the temple, and we are in the mountains. At worst, he can burn Wagang Village. When he leaves, we will come back."

The discussion grew louder and louder, and there were those who agreed and those who opposed it. At this time, Zhai Rang looked at Shan Xiongxin and saw that he didn't say a word, he asked, "Prince Shan, what about your opinion?"

Shan Xiongxin sighed, "I agree with Mr. Xu's plan. Thirty-six strategies are the best. However, before leaving, I suggest negotiating with Yang Yuanqing first. If the leader trusts me, I will go and talk to him."

Everyone looked at Shan Xiongxin, and their eyes were full of surprise. Zhai Rang vaguely guessed that Shan Xiongxin might know Yang Yuanqing. He pondered for a moment, and he was about to nod and agree. A soldier rushed into the tent, "Report to General, there is an envoy sent by officers and soldiers outside the village."

"Good come!"

Zhai Rang shouted loudly: "Let the gun array welcome!"

Shan Xiongxin hurriedly said, "General, don't kill me."

Zhai Rang laughed, "I won't kill the envoys, I just want the men to know that Zhai Rang is not afraid of the officers and soldiers."

． ． ． ． ． ． ． ． ． ．

Outside the village gate, Li Mi was looking at the tent with his hands behind his back and made a simple gatehouse with wood. A plaque was hung on the gatehouse, with the words "Wagangzhai" written on it. The words were well written. There was a watchtower on each side of the gatehouse, about two meters high and surrounded by earthen walls. The walls were covered with soldiers, all wearing Sui army armor and holding crossbows and arrows in their hands, and they looked decent.

There is a large tent in the distance. You can tell at a glance that it was the tent of the Sui army. There was a mast in front of the tent. A large flag with black edges and yellow bottoms fluttered on the mast, and the word "Warang" could be vaguely seen.

When Wang Bo stood behind Li Mi, he held a bow and arrow in his hand and looked nervous. Li Mi looked back at him and smiled and said, "You don't have to be nervous, they should be nervous."

Yang Yuanqing's army had already set up camp outside Wagang. He was not in a hurry to advance. He wanted to know the life and death of Yuwen I and others, so Li Mi volunteered to go to Wagang Village to investigate the truth and reality.

At this time, a gong and drum sounded, and five hundred soldiers lined up in front of the village gate. They were all brightly armoured and brightly held spears in their hands, and they were neatly arranged. A captain called the order, and five hundred spears were set up at the same time, forming a long gun channel.

The captain shouted at the door: "The leader of the village has an order, and the officers and soldiers are envoys to enter the village!"

Li Mi looked at the pirates coldly and ignored them. Wang Bodang was furious. He fired a bow and shot an arrow like a meteor, and shot towards the flagpole hundreds of steps away. One arrow shot a rope and the flag fell from the flagpole, and the camp was suddenly in an uproar.

The soldiers in the village were annoyed and raised their crossbows to aim at the two of them. At this time, someone shouted, "Don't be rude!"

Xu Shiji ran out and waved to the five hundred spearmen, "Removing them all!"

The spearmen all took back their spears, and Xu Shiji walked out of the village and bowed: "The wild soldiers, you don't know etiquette, please forgive me!"

Li Mi saw that this young man was very talkative and well-known, and he knew his manners at first glance that he was from a wealthy family. This surprised Li Mi a little. He really didn't know how this man was a bandit.

Li Mi also bowed and returned the ceremony and said, "After the order of General Yang, come to see your village leader."

"My general is waiting in the lobby. Please follow me!"

Xu Shiji said, and couldn't help but look at Wang Bodang again. Just now, one arrow was a hundred steps through Yang. Not to mention himself, even Brother Dan was not as good as Brother Dan. I heard that Yang Yuanqing's archery skills were unparalleled in the world. Now even one of his subordinates sent by him is so good. It is indeed worthy of his reputation.

Xu Shiji sighed in his heart, and took Li Mi to the Dazhai and came to the main account. Zhai Rang was already waiting here. He wanted to use his spearmen to lift his military power, but unexpectedly, an archer came to the other party, which made them lose face. He wanted to get angry but did not dare, so he had to put down his airs and greet him completely.

"Zhai Rang, a native of the mountains and wild grass, welcome the military envoy to visit the village!"

Li Mi also said lightly: "Let Li Mi be the staff member in front of General Yang's tent."

At this time, Li Mi studied behind closed doors for many years, so most people didn't know him. Zhai Rang also regarded him as an ordinary scholar and hurriedly said, "Mr. Li, please come in!"

Li Mi walked into the big tent and sat down in the guest seat. Zhai Rang sat opposite him, and Zhai Rang's subordinates were all around him.

Li Mi took out a letter and handed it to Zhai Rang, and smiled and said, "General Yang said that he had met Zhuangshi Zhai in the capital, and there were his old people in the tent. He could not bear to fight with each other, so he would be polite first and then fight."

Zhai Rang quickly glanced at Shan Xiongxin. Seeing Shan Xiongxin lowered his head in shame, he was able to confirm that the old friend the messenger mentioned was undoubtedly Shan Xiongxin.

Zhai Rang took out the letter and read it briefly. In the letter, Yang Yuanqing's tone was very polite, hoping that they could recognize the situation and not hit the stone with eggs.

Zhai Rang sighed and said, "At that time, General Yang spared my life in the capital. I, Zhai Rang, remembered it in my heart. I had no intention of fighting with him. Please give me a way out for us."

Li Mi nodded, "General Yang asked me to tell Zhai Zhuangshi that there is a way out for Wagang Village, but the premise is that people must be released first. If they are released, he will talk to you. Otherwise, in an hour, his cavalry will level Wagang Village!"
