When Mr. Zhong Yue heard that Zhang Yu's third strategy was to cut off Qin's grain road, he couldn't help but smile and said: "As you said, this is the best strategy. It's either unwilling or unable!"

Zhang Ye was a little dissatisfied and said: "Three to five people are going to rob them, so what can't they do?"

Mr. Zhongyue said: "Sir, I would like to say: If Qin lives in the land of Qin and Wei lives in the land of Wei, each of them will support each other with their own strength, just as you said. However, Qin's current occupation of Qifeng will be the heart of Wei, and it will be catastrophic for all.

They also robbed the people of Wei. Qin’s losses were limited, but Wei’s losses were endless.”

Zhang Yue was a little slumped, and said sadly: "I wish I could enter Qifeng early, find out its gaps, and succeed in the first battle!"

Mr. Zhongyue said: "If you say this, it will be a blessing to your family and country!"

Although the conversation between the two ended with a bright ending, the two of them felt very heavy. Whether they could find a fighting opportunity and whether they could seize it all depended on luck and were beyond human control.

An idea that had been pondering in Zhang Noi's mind could not be suppressed at this time. Zhang Noi looked around and said: "I have a plan. I hope you will fight it for me!"

Seeing Zhang Noi's cautious look, Zhong Yue couldn't help but straighten his expression and said: "Sir, please speak."

Zhang Ye said: "What I'm thinking is that if you enter Qifeng, you can take advantage of him, go back and forth between the camps, and arrange your troops in formation. I'm afraid it will be relaxed. If you get a strong force lying nearby, if you catch a glimpse of it, you will be able to attack it."

Isn’t it my control?”

Mr. Zhongyue said: "My opinion is correct, sir, but which soldier can be worthy of this task? If it is too few, it will not be useful, and if it is too many, it will be missed and useless."

Zhang He said: "Yesterday, it would have been difficult for you. Today, I have a plan: Three hundred gentlemen have just come out of Daliang. No one knows about them. They are all dressed in beggar's clothes - they are all warriors. If they are scattered around the countryside, they will be able to hide it from others.

, if something happens day or night, if we gather together in one day, we can serve as a thousand troops and accomplish something."

Mr. Zhongyue pondered for a moment, then said with a wry smile: "This matter involves gentlemen, which is beyond my control. But please leave it to your Majesty."

Zhang Ye said: "Although I came up with this plan, it was just a whim and I couldn't make a thorough plan. I hope you will come up with it!"

Mr. Zhongyue said: "There are hundreds of beggars in the four villages. Although it can be hidden from the eyes and ears of the people of Qin, what about the villages? But if there is one or two disputes, the matter will be defeated!"

Zhang He said: "Previously, Uncle Tang and all the soldiers came to Qifeng under the name of servants. Now three hundred people also ask for servants, is that okay?"

Mr. Zhongyue said: "The more than ten servants may be concealed, but there are three hundred people who can do all their work and still have a surplus. How can we not reveal it?"

Zhang Ye said: "If it is true, the opportunity is quick. Masters, you will find the gap in a day or two, take advantage of it and attack it, and you will not be defeated. Even if it is leaked, there will be no harm."

Mr. Zhongyue hesitated and said: "If you are true to your words, you may have success. However, the way of communication and the opportunities for gathering and dispersing are difficult."

Zhang Xian asked: "If it's the Zeng family or the Tang family, maybe there is a strategy?"

Mr. Zhongyue said: "The Zeng family is a lone wolf. Although it bites people, it cannot be grouped. The Tang family is a wild wolf. It gathers together in a roar and disperses in a hurry. It is difficult to use the rabble."

Zhang He said: "Sir, what you said is true. If you don't treat each other with respect from the king, the three hundred warriors will just be a mob and disperse!"

Mr. Zhongyue said: "This is why I don't worry about you. When it comes to the imperial family, there is no one in the world better than the emperor. If you get the emperor's will, you will be able to make the three hundred guests forget life and death."

Zhang Noi said: "It's exactly what Mr. said!"

Mr. Zhongyue said: "If we only have one or two days, the matter will definitely happen. Then it will be done when it comes. There is no need to arrive first and disperse in the countryside. We can gather them later."

Zhang He said: "It is true as Mr. Wang said. However, I am worried that if three hundred people are gathered at a sudden death, the people of Qin will be shocked! It is better to go to the four fields in three or five, and then gather together at a sudden death. That will be better."

Mr. Zhongyue said: "This is also true. It has advantages and disadvantages. However, I have concerns. Among the three hundred people, there are not one or two people who are steadfast in their affairs, not one or two people who cherish their lives, and not one or two people who are unruly.

Are you someone who is docile but disobeys orders? I am not familiar with these gentlemen, but I take them for granted!"

Zhang He said: "This is also my worry. Although I know that all the gentlemen are brave and brave, they are really ignorant of their innermost feelings. It is difficult to be sincere."

The two were surprised for a while and did not continue the discussion. They knew clearly that without the help of Lord Xinling, everything would be in vain; and to convince Lord Xinling, the reason was actually very weak, and it was even equivalent to gambling with the lives of three hundred people.

——And this becomes increasingly difficult for Lord Xinling to nod.

Occasionally, someone came to the city and asked Mr. Zhongyue for some daily instructions, and Mr. Zhongyue gave the instructions as usual. The sky was getting darker, and the bonfires in the distance became brighter and brighter, gradually forming a long dragon, stretching into the boundless darkness. The two of them let it go.

Some of the cool evening breeze blew against my face and chest, exuding some depression; they occasionally exchanged one or two words with each other, but they were all insignificant, mainly just waiting quietly for Lord Xinling and his entourage to return, and

Enjoy the waiting process.

Zhang Le's hands subconsciously grasped the battlements tightly, and his mind couldn't help but think about the scene of a surprise attack on the Qin people with 300 strong men, even the specific formation and attack on what targets: tents, granaries, straw piles

, or just harassing... three hundred warriors wielding short sticks, breaking into the enemy camp and returning safely, this alone is enough to become famous all over the world. But... I don't have these three hundred warriors, these three hundred warriors

They are the retainers hired by Lord Xinling. Although they say that they should repay the Lord's kindness by eating, they have no life-or-death friendship. Their loyalty in times of crisis is very questionable. "...If they are drawn from military soldiers?...In fact, loyalty and

There is no guarantee of bravery." After thinking about it several times, there seemed to be no satisfactory answer. Zhang Yu wanted to stop and enjoy the early winter evening breeze for a while, but he just couldn't let go of his thoughts. He let himself go

Thinking about it, he looked at the imaginary pictures in the void: running, waving short sticks, fighting, shouting, whining, falling to the ground... Suddenly there was the sound of horse hooves and the rumble of wheels. Zhang Yue was startled, as if he had received some inspiration.

, just as he was about to continue thinking, Mr. Zhongyue instructed: "Your Majesty has returned."

Zhang He looked in the direction of Mr. Zhongyue's finger, and among the dots of sparks, there seemed to be a spark moving slowly: the torch that could move among thousands of troops was naturally none other than Lord Xinling.

Zhang He listened carefully and found that there was no sound of horses or chariots nearby. Lord Xinling's team was still dozens of miles away. It looked like a slow-moving spark. It was impossible for any sound to be transmitted...

So where did the sound of carriages and horses that he heard just now come from? Is it really an inspiration given by God? Zhang Yue's heart was excited, and he felt that he was worthy of his persistent thinking, and then he felt that God had sent a revelation.

Horses and cattle are the focus of the attack. They are not very harmful, but they are very harassing, enough to disturb the Qin people all night long. Moreover, most of the stables are old and weak. If you attack them with the best, you will definitely get them all.

Victory, maybe even zero casualties.

With the plan in his mind settled, Zhang Ye found that his mood had calmed down and he was no longer involuntarily unrestrained. Instead, he could focus on the present moment and quietly enjoy the evening breeze of the winter night.

Seeing Mr. Zhang Ye and Mr. Zhong Yue greeting him at the city gate, Mr. Xinling was startled. He jumped out of the car and hurried over and asked, "What's the urgent report?"

The two of them said: "There is no one else, but welcome!" Lord Xinling was relieved. He only ordered a few retainers to accompany him, and the rest dispersed on their own. About ten people went to Huayang Wei Mansion together.

After returning from Jin Bi, Lord Xinling seemed to be in high spirits. As he walked, he said to Zhang Ye and others: "The doctor said it, but the Qin people sent out their whistles and they collapsed at the slightest touch."

Zhang Zou asked: "Can we survive as prisoners?"

Lord Xinling said: "The Qin people scattered in all directions and were unable to pursue them. There were no casualties or prisoners. I also had no casualties."

After entering the mansion, everyone sat down on the table without changing their clothes. Lord Xinling couldn't wait to draw a map and explained to everyone: "Our sentinel met the Qin people one or two miles apart. We controlled the crossbows and came

Wait, the Qin people also formed a formation. After a while, my reinforcements arrived, and the Qin people fled."

Mr. Zhongyue said: "How far away from the camp are we encountering?"

Lord Xinling said: "It's about ten miles away. At that time, my army is small and the people of Qin are large. However, I remained firm and finally got reinforcements and retreated the enemy." What Lord Xinling didn't say was that he personally received the former soldiers.

When the ten soldiers on the sentinel heard their account of the incident, they found that each of them had become more courageous. This made Lord Xinling very satisfied and ordered a reward of ten coins each.

In Doctor Jin Bi's tent, the two of them drafted a document to report their victory to the court. Although they did not fight each other, they could be regarded as meeting the Qin people. Lord Xinling was even more excited along the way.

Mr. Zhongyue was not immersed in the scene, and retained the calmness brought by the sense of alienation, but it was not easy to say cold water. He simply named the diners present and let them express their opinions, vent their excitement, and discuss enthusiastically.

It lasted until midnight. Zhong Yue and Zhang Ye sorted out useful information from the perspective of bystanders.

After the enthusiasm dissipated, everyone's slightly heated faces gradually returned to normal. Zhang Noi brought a jar and scooped out a cup of sake for everyone. After drinking the cold water, the fire in everyone's chest also subsided. Zhong Yue sat at the banquet

He then bowed and said: "Our army won the first battle, it is because of your superior virtue!" All the disciples also praised in unison: "It is because of your superior virtue!"

Lord Xinling said: "How dare I take your words seriously? The virtue of the King of Wei is the shadow of the ancestral temple."

Then he turned to Zhang Zhen and asked, "What's going on with Brother Zeng?"

Zhang He said: "Ms. Zeng thanks you for your kindness and is willing to help our army achieve great success."

Lord Xinling said: "Sir, when will we set off?"

Zhang He said: "This minister is about to report. Zeng said that the Qin people obtained more than ten thousand stones of grain in three days after opening the seal. The grains from the four villages came in a steady stream, which is incalculable."

Hearing Zhang Ye's words, everyone clearly felt that the temperature in the room had dropped. Lord Xinling asked in surprise: "What are you talking about? How come all the Wei people in the four villages have returned to Qin? Is it because Wei Wei has lost some virtue?"

Zhang He said: "It's not about Wei's virtue, it's really about chasing sharp ears. The people of Qin buy grain with double the profit, and the people in the four villages are greedy for the huge profits and compete for money. The people of Qin have ordered the Qin Dynasty to maintain peace and order.
