Lanling Ji

Chapter 48 [Strategy]

"Ning'er, do I have to dress like this?"

"Yes, Brother Ye. You must put on your battle armor. As the saying goes, if you catch a thief, you must first capture the king. Of course, my analogy is wrong, but the other party must be targeting you. Brother Ye must be vigilant at all times." .”

Before entering the tent, she heard Shen Ning's nagging from inside, Yuwen smiled and shook her head, and walked in.

"It's finally finished, Ning'er, look at what's wrong." Ye Lanling adjusted the thick armor on his body, and when he turned around, he saw Yu Wenxian waving his fan and looking at him with a smile, "Master Yu ...sorry, that's a joke. I've never worn such a complicated armor."

"You are well dressed." Yu Wenxian walked up, looked up and down, and said with a smile, "You look even more heroic with this appearance."

"Ah!" Ye Lanling was still not used to others' compliments on his appearance, "Master Yu is flattering you."

"Eh? What is this?" Yu Wenxian saw the scarlet mask next to the bed, "This...is it you who want to wear it?"

Ye Lanling looked at Zarbal, and said with a smile, "Exactly, Master Yu, don't you think it matches me well?"

"Where is it matched?" Yu Wenxian looked back and forth, "Why do you wear such a hideous thing?"

"This...it's a long story." Ye Lanling frowned helplessly.

"Because Brother Ye has a soft and beautiful face, those soldiers are fascinated by it every time they see Brother Ye." Shen Ning said first, grabbing the mask that Ye Lanling was about to put on his face, "Brother Ye, what did you say about this time?" You must not wear a zarbal when you enter the city."

"I understand, I just want to wear more, so that I can quickly adapt to leading troops in battle." Ye Lanling tied up her long black hair, slowly put on Zarbal, tied the string at the back, and then put on the heavy helmet , and finally finished the assembly and stood in front of everyone.

"Brother Ye..." Shen Ning looked at Ye Lanling who was covered in armor and covered by Zarbal, and was speechless for a moment.

Yu Wenxian stopped smiling, closed his eyes, stared straight at Ye Lanling, who looked like a God of War, and shook his head slightly.He... is he Lan Ling?Is it the gentle, indifferent, peaceful and beautiful Ye Lanling?Shedding his soft and delicate body, and putting on the golden armor, he is like a born general.If not for those illnesses, he must be a king, a king of benevolence and righteousness.

"What's the matter?" Ye Lanling untied Zarbal, and looked at the two people who were silent, "En? Why didn't even Bai Ze speak? Could it be... Could it be that I really don't look like an emperor in a dragon robe?" ?"

"No." Yu Wenxian came back to his senses, he smiled and stretched out his hand to straighten Ye Lanling's slightly crooked helmet, "You are a general in the first place, so why not?"

"Brother Ye," Shen Ning suddenly stepped forward and grabbed Ye Lanling's arm, and said with a straight face, "You are the most domineering general I have ever seen."

"Domineering?" Ye Lanling couldn't help laughing when he heard this adjective, "It's the first time I've been called domineering, it seems that I should always wear Zarbal in the future, so that I can learn from Ning'er My 'beautiful' has become 'dominant', ha ha."

"Brother Ye, Ning'er expresses her thoughts so sincerely, but Brother Ye made a joke of it." Shen Ning muttered.

"Okay, okay. Sorry, I didn't mean to make fun of Ning'er, I won't say it in the future."

"It's okay to joke occasionally, but..." Yu Wenxian stared at Ye Lanling's pure and clear eyes, what was lacking in them was cruelty, "In the army, please stay vigilant, and if you say something, you will be killed." disaster."

Ye Lanling was taken aback for a moment, then remembered the metaphor he blurted out just now, and smiled apologetically, "Thank you Lord Yu for reminding me, after so long, I still haven't gotten used to the constraints of speech."

"Yeah, what a terrible thing it is to imprison people's thoughts, words and deeds. If there is a place where speech and deeds are free, and everyone is equal and fair, there is no palace, no war, only everyone's kind and friendly heart, then What kind of pure land should it be?"

"Hehe, Master Yu originally yearned for communism."

"Huh? What is communism?"

"This..." Ye Lanling was just thinking about how to explain this advanced term, when he came in to report.

"Report to the general, Deputy General Wan led a hundred soldiers and horses to wait outside the camp."

"Well, pass on the order and leave in a quarter of an hour." Ye Lanling looked at the retreating soldiers, turned around and said to Shen Ning, "Ning'er, get your pens, ink, paper and inkstone ready. Lord Yu, please."

"Please." Yu Wenxian thought suspiciously about the Four Treasures of the Study that Ye Lanling asked Shen Ning to prepare just now. Although he could not be called Kong Ming alive, he was also the military advisor of the sixteen soldiers from three directions.This time I would like to see how he uses the Four Treasures of Scholar as a weapon in battle to save the precarious situation where Qi Bing is empty of food.

More than a hundred soldiers arrived outside the city of Luoyang, and the sentinels standing on the city wall looked tremblingly at the soldiers and horses carrying the flag of Qi below.

"Open the city gate quickly! General Gao is here to check the situation of the soldiers." Deputy General Wan shouted at the frightened soldiers.

The soldier looked carefully at the person who notified him, and heaved a sigh of relief.Just as he was about to tell the soldiers under the wall to open the city gate, his foot slipped and he fell to the ground.

Ye Lanling was riding on the tall horse, Yu Wenxian and Shen Ning were on the left and right respectively.In the too quiet hills and forests outside Luoyang City, a few miles away, brave and skilled Zhou soldiers camped.

"Squeak—ah——" The heavy sound of opening the door came from the front, and the ancient Luoyang City slowly opened.

Ye Lanling frowned as he looked at the ancient city that didn't even have a moat, and entered the precarious Luoyang.

"Hey, who is that man? Why did General Wan follow him?" The city guard watched the soldiers and horses enter the gate, and asked the soldiers beside him in a low voice.

"According to the report from above, it seems...it seems to be called General Gao, and he must be a new general in the palace."

"Then... isn't General Wan Vice-General Wan?"

"Don't talk nonsense, if it's not true, you will be beheaded if you make something out of nothing."

"Ah! I shut up."

"General, this is the main road in Luoyang. I wonder where you plan to check it?" Deputy General Wan saw Ye Lanling stop his horse and stared at the empty street with a frown, he couldn't help being surprised.

"Deputy General Wan," Ye Lanling looked at the dead and chaotic Luoyang without much surprise, but the loss of the previous bustle and bustle made people feel the ruthlessness of war, "please take me to the market, and then try to gather all the people Luoyang people, let’s go to the market together, I have something important to discuss with you.”

"Follow the order." Vice-General Wan pointed to the end of the road, "Over there is the largest market in Luoyang City. I will pass down the order to gather all the people in the city here."

"Thank you, Lieutenant General Wan." Ye Lanling didn't smile, and looked at the open space not far away with a serious face, and walked forward slowly on his horse.

About an hour later, many people gathered in the market, surrounded by a circle of soldiers holding spears.The faces of the people were full of anger and resistance, and the voices of complaints were low and constant.

Ye Lanling looked at the dark crowd, and he could confirm his speculation from their expressions. He raised a hand, and then the soldiers pushed and stopped the people to force them to be quiet.

"Hi everyone, I'm the current general, Gao Changgong." Ye Lanling looked at the people in front of him with a smile, and first reported himself, which was an unprecedented move at that time.Everyone looked at this new general who had no official authority but was full of military might, and gradually became quiet.

"As we all know, the enemy soldiers are now outside the city trying to attack Luoyang. The emperor sent me to lead [-] elite soldiers to help. Adding the existing [-] soldiers and horses, the total is [-]. These [-] elite soldiers must be called Zhou Bingquan. The army is annihilated." Ye Lanling looked at the still angry people, and paused, "Yesterday, Zhou soldiers ambushed our army's food and grass, so that our food and grass can only last for one day. Therefore, I am now asking everyone Food and grass can be used to resist Zhou soldiers."

"Om—" After hearing Ye Lanling's words, the quiet people became more irritable, and some even protested loudly, "We have been looted by you, where is there any food?" "You have robbed everything that should be robbed, now Are you going to kill us all?"

"My God, what kind of world is this?"

Ye Lanling listened to people's clamor, still smiling calmly, he waved his hand, motioned for the soldiers behind him to come forward, moved the wooden table behind him to the front, and ordered them to take out pens, inks, papers and inkstones, Shen Ning and Yu Wen envied Sit at the table.Everyone watched this general who was different from the past put on an inexplicable posture, and couldn't help but calm down.

"First of all, I want to apologize to everyone. I express my deep apologies for the forcible robbing of the soldiers in the city a few days ago." Ye Lanling said with a smile, and as expected, he got a burst of sighs, "As the saying goes, 'the soldiers and the people are united. , its strength breaks gold.'”

Shen Ning glanced at Yu Wenxian who was at the side, and muttered in a low voice, "Why haven't I heard this common saying before."

"I don't know either."

"I came here today to make up for everyone's losses. Those who were seized by our soldiers before can come here to record. When our soldiers arrive four days later, we will return you three times the amount. "

"Om—" There was another low voice of discussion underneath, and everyone raised their flags to wait and see in doubt.

"Secondly, everyone will hand over to me the food they need to last four days. After registering here, you will get three times the refund." Ye Lanling looked at the people who were a little shaken but still couldn't believe it, and said in a daze , "I, Gao Changgong, guarantee the head of the item, and I will pay it back three times in four days."

"You...you can count on what you say?" Finally someone in the crowd tried to speak.

"Bold!" The soldier next to him was about to step forward and drag the person who offended the general out, but Ye Lanling stopped him sharply.

"All soldiers obey orders!" Ye Lanling said seriously, "In the future, the weapons in your hands must be directed at the enemy, not at any unarmed civilians!"

"Follow the order!"

No one in the crowd spoke anymore, and everyone looked at this unusual general.

Yu Wenxian finally understands Ye Lanling's countermeasures. He is really talented and has far-reaching strategies. He can obtain urgent needs without a single soldier, and win over the most important people's hearts.The military and the people are united, this battle seems to have been resolved.Yu Wenxian squinted her eyes, staring at the general in front of her.Although he has an overly soft face, I believe that he will be a miraculous general who is admired and praised by people.

People rushed forward in a swarm, jostling and squeezing into the small space, scrambling to be the first to hand in the grain and grass.Ye Lanling looked at the people who were finally persuaded, and signaled to the soldiers on the side to maintain order and ensure everyone's safety.He slowly stepped aside, smiled slightly, and sighed in his heart, "It turns out that everything cannot escape the torrent of history."
