wife and king

Chapter 73: Ghost Mountain

Returning to the mansion with a smile on his face, he asked where Ji Linchuan was, and Yan Cangling happily ran over, but before the sweetheart arrived, he killed Xu Songming on the way and blocked his way.

Upon receiving Yan Cangling's gloomy gaze, Xu Songming trembled three times, and hastily bowed to the end to avoid the terrifying gaze: "My lord, I just received the news that the Xiping Army led by Wu Xiao has recovered the surrounding counties of Nanxiang, and is now heading to Fangcheng is here, and it will arrive in Fangcheng in about ten days."

"Well," Yan Cangling knew about this for a long time, so he lost energy when he heard the outdated news, and raised his eyes listlessly, hoping that Xu Songming could tell some news that would make him abandon his sweetheart and listen to his report.

Xu Songming lowered his head, paused for a while, and then questioned: "The spies inquired that on the day the army set off, there was a heavy rain in Nanxiang, which had been drought for many years. The army thought it was God's help, and their morale was boosted, so... I want to ask the prince for advice, what should I do next?"

Yan Cangling's brows were instantly twisted into a knot, he pondered for a moment, and ordered: "Go and call Yao Liang, Fang Xin, Le Qi and the Dianjun from each government to the study to discuss."

"Yes, I'm leaving." Xu Songming bowed and retreated, while Yan Cangling stepped forward to find Ji Linchuan.

Ji Linchuan was leaning on a chair in the room, propping his chin with one hand, and was fascinated by the book in his hand. When he heard the sound of the door opening, he only moved his ears slightly, and was immersed in the book again.

Yan Cangling was puzzled. In the past when Linchuan saw him this time, even if he was addicted to the book, he would put down the book in his hand, and said to himself with a smile: "You are here."But today, for some reason, he ignored himself uncharacteristically, maybe he was still angry with himself.

"Jing Han." Yan Cangling called out tentatively, but only got Ji Linchuan's provocative glance, and was taken away by the book in an instant.

"Jing Han," shouted over and over again, Yan Cangling stepped forward in dissatisfaction, hugged Ji Linchuan and kissed him dearly, "Why are you ignoring me, I have something to ask you...." The last tone of the voice was instantly lowered, Sinking into his stomach, Yan Cangling glanced at the book in Ji Linchuan's hand just in time, and was stunned for a moment, it was actually a military book!

He vaguely remembered that Ji Linchuan didn't like to read military books. When Ji Linchuan came to the study, he flipped through the military books and put them back without reading them, but now he read them with such interest?Strange and strange.

"Jing Han, what's wrong with you, you know how to read the book of war." Yan Cangling took the book of war from Ji Linchuan's hand, tilted his head to look up, down, left, and right, his eyes were so fierce that he wanted to stare at the words inside, "It's strange, The word has not changed, why are you so fascinated by it.”

"Give it back to me," Ji Linchuan said with a hint of annoyance in his tone, tiptoeing back his book, frowning slightly, "Why don't you go and win over Eunuch Li, why come to grab my book of war. Don't bother me, I'll return it to you." It's up to you."

"Jing Han," Yan Cangling said in surprise, "Why did you suddenly come here to read military books?"

"I..." Ji Linchuan was at a loss for words, a blush crept up his cheeks silently, he secretly raised a glance from his bangs to look at Yan Cangling's doubtful face, and then looked away, "You...you will be here soon... I have to fight against the Xiping Army, so I thought about looking at military books to help you, although I don’t know much, but it’s always good to have more strength.”

Joy quietly flowed from the neck to the face, silently filling the tip of the heart, Yan Cangling quietly stared at Ji Linchuan, his heart seemed to be plucked by something, and it made him go crazy.He hugged Ji Linchuan happily, and gently pressed a kiss on his lips. The joy came from his heart, overjoyed, and finally, his whole body was moved.

The short kiss ended in a hurry after Yan Cangling remembered his purpose of coming, he let go of the blushing Ji Linchuan, clasped his fingers, firmly grasped the man's hand, and led him out: "Speaking of this, Jing Han, how many people do you have to meet with me?"

"Mmm...mm." Ji Linchuan was caught off guard, his feet moved, and he almost threw himself on Yan Cangling's back, crushing his nose. "Why are you so flustered," he said with a slight annoyance on his face.

"I don't know whether it's good or bad." Yan Cangling stopped, took the person to his side, and told Ji Linchuan what Xu Songming said just now, and continued, "So I replaced Wu Qikang's head with him. The tiger talisman is to plot against Wu Xiao and force him to conspire against him, so that I can use the excuse of suppressing chaos for the emperor to fight against the Xiping army, secretly bribe the people in the Xiping army, and mix our forces into it. In the end, I tried to gather the Xiping army. But if the emperor made a move to let me go to the south, my plan would have to change. Not only did I defeat the Xiping army, but I also had to use tunnels to send our forces to the south Prime Minister, otherwise I can’t take away a single soldier, which will be extremely detrimental to attacking the capital in the future. But now, the Xiping Army is in full swing, and our side has not fought for a long time, so we are unfamiliar, so I am worried..."

When the word "worried" fell, Yan Cangling had brought Ji Linchuan into the study room, and immediately received many bright eyes.

Ji Linchuan was taken aback, he smiled calmly for a moment, and nodded to many people who had never met in the study.

There are about ten people standing in the study at the moment, filling the study to the brim.Among them, Xu Songming, Yao Liang, and Le Qiji Linchuan have all met each other. The rest of them who have never met are all tall and straight people who stand like pine trees. Their identities - soldiers.

"Jing Han, let me introduce you." Yan Cangling led Ji Linchuan towards the people standing still. The first person in front of him was Chang Desheng who turned into a gangster when he dealt with Li Jie last time. Ji Linchuan pursed his lips and smiled at him, and Chang Desheng also Laughing loudly, a big palm patted Ji Linchuan's shoulder: "Hahaha, hello princess, hello princess! Long time no see."

"Mmmmmm, long time no see." Ji Linchuan's bones were almost smashed into pieces by his palm, and Yan Cangling threw away Chang Desheng's hand in shock, and gave him a hard look.

Chang Desheng giggled a few times, patted his head, patted his chest and said loudly: "I'm sorry, sorry, I forgot that the concubine's skin is too tender and can't help being beaten. It's okay, I will beat myself three times, and I apologize!" He punched himself in the chest with three fists, and the sound was so loud that Ji Linchuan almost jumped up, and everyone present with sullen faces melted their smiles, pointing at what Chang Desheng did and laughing back and forth.

Abandoning Chang Desheng, Yan Cangling went to the side, and recommended to Ji Linchuan one by one the left and right generals of various prefectures, and at the end he also recommended one person to consult with Fang Xin who joined the military.

Consulting and participating in the military is an official position in the government that consults and participates in the military.After hearing the explanation, Ji Linchuan paused for a moment, raised his eyebrows slightly, and asked, "Why didn't you call my father?"

Yan Cangling's body froze, and he twitched the corners of his mouth. He wanted to refuse, fearing that his father would not be able to accept them talking about such treasonous things for a while, but seeing Ji Linchuan's firm eyes, he still sent someone to summon him.

At this moment, the study room was crowded with many soldiers, and one could tell that this matter was unusual.

"Just now Jing Handao and I understood the current situation," Yan Cangling walked to the case, took a map of the southwest from Xu Songming, spread it out on the table, pointed with one hand sharply, and landed on the southwestern map. On the prime minister, "Now Wu Xiao is setting off from Nanxiang with more than [-] soldiers and horses, and is coming to our Fangcheng. From the map, this is a mountainous land with uneven terrain and many mountain roads. When coming to Fangcheng, those who can gather soldiers and horses , there is only this mountain range connected to Luoxia Mountain, Luoxia Mountain. If the army is forced here, Fangcheng will be in danger. Therefore, we need to stop the army before that and find a suitable place. Break through the core bones of the army in one fell swoop."

Ji Linchuan walked to Yan Cangling's side, and looked down at the map together. He had only learned the art of war for a short time, and he didn't know much about the map. After a while, he really couldn't see why. He opened his lips to ask a question, but he couldn't bear to disturb him. Yan Cangling then hid his doubts deep in his belly, and asked again when it was appropriate.

However, he didn't ask, but someone saw the doubt in his eyebrows, Le Qi asked: "Princess, what do you want to ask?"

Ji Linchuan was taken aback for a moment, and Tong Leqi smiled heartily. Facing everyone's eyes, he asked calmly, "Aside from the uneven terrain, there are also some strange terrains."

"The strange terrain?" Yan Cangling was puzzled, "Jing Han, what are you referring to?"

"I have a guess," Ji Linchuan clasped the palm of his right hand lightly with the five fingertips of his left hand, his mind far away, "Thinking about it, the southwest is mostly mountainous, so the Xiping Army and your government army must be good at fighting in mountainous areas." In this way, apart from relying on Fangcheng to continuously supply what we need, our chances of winning are not great. Therefore, we need to find a place that you are not good at, and he is not good at, and fight with a surprise attack. But this It's just my guess, not sure."

As soon as these words came out, there was silence in the room. Many people propped their heads and hands, their eyes fixed on the map, hoping to find a suitable place that could be both offensive and defensive.

At this time, Yao Liang spoke, breaking the silence: "When we came to Fangcheng, we accidentally entered a strange mountain, where white mist would grow at night, we almost lost our way at that time, if not for someone Tomorrow I will hang my head to guide the direction, I am afraid that they will all be buried there. If I remember correctly, that place should be here..." When Yao Liang talked about the military affairs, he restrained his irritability, and his voice sounded thin His finger touched an inconspicuous spot on the map.

This place is only shown as a small dot on the map, so low-key that it is almost impossible to see where it is.

Such a small point would be overlooked by people like Yan Cangling who are accustomed to looking at maps after years of fighting, let alone other people.

Ji Linchuan groaned, buried his head almost into the map, and only then could he see where the dot was: "Where is this place, and what is it called?"

"Hey, ghosts know what it's called. When we went out, we called it Ghost Mountain, because it was deep in the mountain, and there was white mist covering our eyes from time to time. If I hadn't lost my way for a while, I really wouldn't have gone in."

"That is to say," Yan Cangling continued, "this place is not easy to be found, and it is easy to get lost?"

"That's right, if it wasn't for a momentary mistake, I'm afraid no one would know about this place." Yao Liang said confidently.

Yan Cangling frowned: "If that's the case, how can we lead the enemy army here and surprise them?"

As soon as the sound fell, everyone was silent for a while, and they all frowned and looked at Yao Liang - after all, no one knew what the terrain there was like.
