Treacherous ministers have deep routines

Zhao Lan had nowhere to go, and turned into a bandit. The prefects felt that attacking Zhao Lan now would be tantamount to forcing him to death. For Zhao Lan, it was a desperate fight, and she had to use all her strength.

But Lin Rang said it was a big melon!

Everyone stared at Lin Rang with disdainful expressions, thinking that he had no knowledge and only knew how to talk big.

Although Lin Rang has been on the battlefield, he has never led a soldier, and has always been the type of strategist, and the prefects are all military officers, so he feels that this kind of Lin Rang can only talk big words and play tricks, and has no real skills at all.

Lin Rang knew what they were thinking. On the one hand, they doubted their own strength, and on the other hand, they were too sour, so they deliberately found fault with themselves.

Lin Rang said lightly: "With such a big melon in front of you, since the big fellows are so accommodating, then the humble minister should be respectful rather than obedient."

When Wei Man heard it, Lin Rang wanted to lead troops to the battlefield, how could this be possible?Lin Rang doesn't know martial arts at all. How dangerous is it if he leads troops into the battlefield?

Wei Man obviously disagreed, his face was very ugly, he was not angry with Lin Rang, but angry with those prefects who wanted to fish in troubled waters.

Wei Mangang was about to speak, but Lin Rang already knew that he wanted to reject him, so he cupped his hands and said, "Wei Gong, Zhao Lan has fallen into a bandit, such a god-given opportunity has been given to this humble minister, if this humble minister does not seize the opportunity, I am afraid there will be no such thing in the future." If you have the opportunity to show yourself, I would like to ask Duke Wei to give his approval, and this humble minister is willing to plead for orders to personally lead the troops to wipe out the bandits!"

Wei Man heard that he had said everything to this point, and he seemed to be full of confidence, not at all flustered and reluctant, so he became ruthless, thinking that it would be a big deal for him to follow along.

So Wei Man said: "Okay, Gu agrees, the governor of Luzhou must beat Zhao Lan to the crap of Gu."

Lin Rang raised his lips and smiled. Although he was not tall, but with a grim face, he seemed to be sure of winning, and his whole body revealed a look of ease.

Everyone saw that Wei Man agreed to Lin Rang's plea, each of them had different faces, some were disdainful, some were watching the excitement, and some were worried.

Yang Yue heard that Lin Rang was going to go to the battlefield in person. Although he trusted Lin Rang's strength, Zhao Lan was not to be underestimated. He was a little bit angry, but he was brave and good at fighting, and his strength was not weak. Besides, he just won Chen Zhonglu's With [-] soldiers and horses, as well as food and supplies, he is now the king of the mountain, Ben Dawang. Lin Rang went to the mountain to suppress the bandits at this time.

Yang Yue was very worried, so he stood up immediately, cupped his hands and said, "Wei Gong, Yang Yue is willing to ask for orders to go with the governor to destroy Zhao Lan."

Wei Man looked at Yang Yue in surprise, unexpectedly, it was Yang Yue who stood up to help at the critical moment.

But Wei Man was not very willing. After all, Yang Yue was his rival in love. How could he send his rival to Lin Rang? Isn't this just making him suffer?

Besides, Wei Man still wanted to go with Lin Rang himself, so there was no need for Lin Rang to accompany him.

But Lin Rang said: "Duke Wei, if we can get the help of the prefect of Wu Han, we will definitely get twice the result with half the effort."

Wei Man didn't expect Lin Rang to agree, without objecting at all, he seemed quite happy.

Lin Rang comforted Yang Yue a few days ago, and the two almost hugged each other. Now that Lin Rang wanted to take Yang Yue to the battlefield again, Wei Man was so jealous, as if he was drifting in the bitter wine of the vast ocean, and almost spit out sour water Come on.

Wei Man's face turned ugly, but Lin Rang had his own reasons, saying: "A few days ago Zhao Lan led troops to besiege Wu Han. As the prefect of Wu Han, Yang Gong failed to go to the battlefield in person. Now is the opportunity to take revenge. Please Duke Wei give Duke Yang this chance."

When Wei Man heard this, he felt even more jealous, and Lin Rang was still speaking kindly to Yang Yue.

Wei Man was very angry, but in front of so many people, it was not easy to get angry, and what Lin Rang said was reasonable, and Wei Man was not easy to refuse, so he finally agreed.

Yang Yue said in surprise: "Really?! That's great."

He said, turned to look at Lin Rang, and said, "Inspector, we can go to the battlefield together!"

Wei Man: "..." You know, Yang Yue definitely doesn't just want revenge, he definitely wants to bring private goods!

The matter of Lin Rang's expedition was settled like this, the council was quickly dispersed, and everyone left separately.

Lin Rang walked out of the tent of the shogunate, just in time to see Yang Yue, who was standing at the door, as if waiting for Lin Rang.

Seeing him, Yang Yue said with a smile, "Inspector, I'm waiting for you on a special trip, let's discuss the issue of sending troops together, how about?"

Lin Rang just wanted to agree. After all, they will send troops together in the future, so it is a good thing to discuss it.

Unexpectedly, before opening his mouth, someone suddenly came over from behind and put his arms around Lin Rang's shoulders. The two brothers looked good and said, "I'm really sorry, Gu and the governor have more important things to discuss. .”

It's Wei Man!

Yang Yue came first, and Wei Man came later. Yang Yue thought to himself, Wei Man really didn't understand the principle of first come first, so he jumped in line.

But he was not easy to open his mouth. After all, a general of hussars and a prefect of one side, the difference in official positions is too far...

Yang Yue laughed dryly and said, "Since... if this is the case, then you guys discuss it first, and I will resign first."

He said, turned around and left quickly, only Lin Rang and Wei Man were left.

Lin Rang looked at Wei Man and said, "Duke Wei, what's the matter? Discuss it with the humble minister?"

Wei Man narrowed his eyes, stared at Lin Rang very dangerously, and said, "It's a...very deep question."

Yang Yue was unwilling, but he had no choice but to leave resentfully. After walking a few steps, he saw Yu Ziyuan.

After Yu Ziyuan left the tent of the shogunate, he actually came to the school ground to practice martial arts, and he was dancing with a spear like a tiger.

Yang Yue walked over and said with a smile, "Why do you practice martial arts here?"

"Huh-!" With a sound, the long/gun was thrown over, almost hitting Yang Yue's face, Yang Yue dodged backwards, "Boom!" With a sound, one of them didn't pay attention, and was swept by Yu Ziyuan. Then fell over.

Yu Ziyuan succeeded in the sneak attack and reacted quickly. He put his arms around Yang Yue's shoulders, and both of them fell to the ground, but Yang Yue didn't hurt from the fall, and Yu Ziyuan forced him to make a back pad for him.

Yang Yue didn't expect to be attacked by Yu Ziyuan, and said angrily, "Yu Ziyuan! How dare your grandson attack me?!"

As he spoke, he was about to get up, but Yang Yue didn't know that Yu Ziyuan was grabbing his arm.

So the two looked at each other "awkwardly".

Yu Ziyuan made a backrest and fell to the ground. Because Yang Yue couldn't get up, he was lying on top of Yu Ziyuan. Yang Yue didn't realize it just now, but now he took a closer look, this situation is really...

It's really inexplicable to make people blush and heartbeat.

Yang Yue quickly shook his head to drive out his strange thinking.

Yu Ziyuan said nonchalantly, "Congratulations, Mr. Yang, your wish has been fulfilled."

Yang Yue said strangely: "What did you get what you want?"

Yu Ziyuan smiled faintly, and said, "Go to the battlefield with the person Duke Yang likes."

Yang Yue listened, always felt that Yu Ziyuan's tone was very strange, a bit yin and yang, but he was not sure, he didn't know if it was true.

Then I heard Yu Ziyuan continue to say: "But Mr. Yang, don't forget that Mr. Wei and the governor have such a close relationship. If Mr. Yang really gets involved, he has to think about whether he can beat General Hushi. I'm afraid I'm going to lose my great future, Mr. Yang... can he afford to lose?"

"you!"

Yang Yue was so angry, no wonder it sounded weird, Yu Ziyuan was originally yin and yang, and the more he said it, the worse it sounded.

Yang Yue shook off Yu Ziyuan and said, "I like whoever I like, and I like to join in whoever I like. It's up to you?!"

Yang Yue was so angry that he stood up and left. Yu Ziyuan lay on the ground of the school ground and didn't get up. He sighed suddenly, rubbed his cheeks, and said in a low voice, "What the hell am I talking about..."

It was already night when Lin Rang woke up, he was a little tired, and Wei Man suddenly went crazy for some reason.

Lin Rang opened his eyes, and saw Wei Man staring at him in the pitch-black tent with tiger-like eyes, his eyes glowing "噗噐", staring at him brightly, like a searchlight.

Lin Rang said hoarsely, "Why didn't Duke Wei sleep?"

Wei Man said, "I have to take a closer look at you."

Lin Rang said, "Why, Duke Wei hasn't seen enough?"

Wei Man said with a smile: "How can you see enough, you can never see enough."

Wei Man spoke so sweetly that even he was afraid!

But Lin Rang was not afraid anymore, and said in a cold voice, "Rang is the same."

Wei Man choked for breath, his eyes dimmed, but he felt sorry for Lin Rang, Lin Rang was a little tired, and he had to go on an expedition in a few days, so he needed to get a good rest.

Wei Man put his arms around Lin Rang, with a "coquettish" look, and said, "Lin Rang, take Gu to suppress the bandits, Gu Hui will be obedient and will never cause trouble."

"No."

Lin Rang refused without thinking.

Wei Man: "..." Is the way I act like a baby wrong?

Lin Rang said very coldly: "Now is the important moment to face Chen Zhonglu, Wei Gong can't leave the barracks, besides, isn't Yang Gong already helping out?"

"It's because of that kid Yang Yue!"

When Wei Man mentioned Yang Yue, he felt angry.

Lin Rang asked in confusion, "Mr. Yang?"

Wei Man wiped his face vigorously, and said, "Lin Rang, why are you so slow? That boy Yang Yue is obviously plotting against you. How can Gu feel at ease when you go out with him alone?"

When Lin Rang heard this, he said strangely: "When did Yang Gong plot against Rang?"

In Lin Rang's eyes, Yang Yue did conspire against him, but it was the first time they met, when Lin Rang was still a great eunuch, and Yang Yue made a move on Lin Rang, and Wei Man broke both of his arms.

It was much better after that, after all, Yang Yue was scared.

Especially after Lin Rang returned, Lin Rang felt that Yang Yue's thoughts on him were very simple.

Lin Rang said lightly: "Duke Yang...isn't he plotting against Duke Yu?"

"what!?"

Wei Man was taken aback, and almost bit his tongue off, saying, "Yang Yue plotted against Yu Ziyuan? Wait, didn't Yu Ziyuan plot against Yang Yue?"

Lin Rang said lightly again: "Oh, since it's two-way, it's much more convenient."

Wei Man: "..." Is this the issue we are discussing now?

Wei Man said: "Lin Rang, don't interrupt, I just want to go with you to suppress the bandits."

Lin Rang said calmly: "It's just to suppress the bandits, why should Duke Wei go out?"

Wei Man said: "I want to be with you. Although I know you are great, I still don't trust you, worry about you, miss you all the time, and want to stay by your side forever."

Lin Rang listened, and laughed, the smile was not a sneer, for a moment there was a feeling of spring breeze, and Wei Man was obsessed.

Lin Rang kissed Wei Man on the forehead and said, "A reward for Aman."

Wei Mandeng was a little fascinated, so he heard Lin Rang say: "It still doesn't work, please ask Wei Gong to sit in the army."

Wei Man: "..." One bite of candy and one stick!

Lin let this big pig's hoof!

"It's not good, it's not good!!"

"Master! It's not good, it's not good——"

"My lord, report urgently! Report urgently!"

In the imperial palace in Huaizhong, the servants rushed quickly, and rushed into the main hall without being summoned.

Chen Zhonglu was drinking and having fun, accompanied by many beauties, when he heard the voice of his followers, saying, "Bold! Why are you spoiling the fun?!"

The follower knelt on the ground with a "gudong!", kowtowed and said, "Master, master, something is wrong! Zhao Lan returned to the court with troops and horses, and was raided by Sima Bogui. Now the army has been split into two." During this period, the large army could not return, Zhao Lan led 3 troops and rushed out of Sima Bogui's encirclement, but...but..."

When Chen Zhonglu heard this, his heart skipped a beat. He thought that after Zhao Lan came back, they would be able to pinch Wu Yan's army back and forth and crush Wu Yan to death in the middle of the Huai River without any chance of loss.

But I didn't think about it...

Wei Man even sent Sima Bogui to attack Zhao Lan. Now, the [-] soldiers were split into two, and [-] were intercepted, unable to return. Only Zhao Lan's [-] remained.

Chen Zhonglu said: "But what?! What went wrong?"

The follower kowtowed and said, "Zhao Lan...Zhao Lan took [-] soldiers and horses, and all the supplies, and did not continue to Huaizhong, but ran to Qianyue Mountain!"

"what?!"

Chen Zhonglu was taken aback and got up abruptly, but he was a little dizzy due to the alcohol. When he stood up, he fell back with a "gudong" and said in surprise, "Zhao Lan is a mediocre dog!!!"

Chen Zhonglu never expected that Zhao Lan would run away suddenly with all his belongings and manpower involved. This was not only a loss to Chen Zhonglu, but also severely slapped Chen Zhonglu in the face.

Chen Zhonglu patted the table angrily, "Bang bang bang" and said, "Come here! Send troops immediately to catch Zhao Lan!"

The follower said: "My lord, Wei Man is also making moves. They heard that Zhao Lan has fallen into a bandit. They have arranged for the governor of Luzhou to attack Zhao Lan and suppress the bandits. They will start soon."

"The governor of Luzhou?"

Chen Zhonglu thought for a while and said, "That person who looks somewhat similar to Liehou? Isn't he Wei Manyi's favorite? Will he go to war?!"

The follower said: "My lord, now the army needs to fight against Wu Yan's soldiers and horses, so we can't disperse too many elites to destroy Zhao Lan. If not... let the governor of Luzhou go and try to beat Zhao Lan, that poor one Literati, do you know of a good way to fight a war? After they both lose, and the consumption is almost the same, wouldn't it be great for us to go up and make a profit?"

Chen Zhonglu narrowed his eyes and said, "This is the only plan for now."

Wei Man sent Lin Rang to the expedition, and the expedition team was ready to go. Lin Rang led the army, and together with Yang Yue, the prefect of Wu Han, left Handong County and went to Qianyue Mountain, preparing to destroy Zhao Lan's bandits.

Wei Man waited above the city of the Eastern Han Army, watching Lin Rang ride away on a shadowless horse from a distance, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart. leave.

Wei Man just sighed in his heart, but he heard a sigh beside him, turned his head and saw that it was Yu Ziyuan.

Wei Man looked at Yu Ziyuan, and then thought of Lin Rang's remarks that day, saying that Yang Yue was plotting against Yu Ziyuan.

In fact, Wei Man thinks so too, but Wei Man thinks that Yu Ziyuan plotted against Yang Yue. When Yu Ziyuan left Yang Yue, set up his own family and became the governor of Daizhou, Wei Man felt that maybe it was Yu Ziyuan who finally couldn't stand Yang Yue's "flirty".

If you have a crush on a person, but you can't ask for them to be by his side, and you still have to watch this person "playing around", according to Yu Ziyuan's temperament, I'm afraid he will definitely leave.

But Wei Manwan didn't expect that Lin Rang would actually say that Yang Yue was the one who plotted against him. I'm afraid Yang Yue didn't even know it.

Wei Man looked at Yu Ziyuan, turned around twice, and thought that if he could help Yang Yue and Yu Ziyuan break through this barrier, it would be a good thing, not only helped Yu Ziyuan, but also helped him solve his love rival, once and for all .

"Clap!"

Wei Man patted Yu Ziyuan on the shoulder, said with a smile, "Ziyuan."

Yu Ziyuan came back to his senses, cupped his hands and said, "Duke Wei."

Wei Man looked enigmatic and said, "I know what you're thinking right now? You want...to take Duke Yang as your own, don't you?"

Yu Ziyuan was taken aback, and looked at Wei Man, but quickly calmed down.

Yu Ziyuan is actually very possessive. Although he looks upright and upright on the surface, his uprightness is not at all the same as Ying Ziyun's uprightness in his bones.

Yu Ziyuan's temperament is a bit paranoid, he really wanted to take Yang Yue as his own, but Yang Yue is a careless person, and he is also a person who "loves beauty", so Yu Ziyuan couldn't keep it for himself, so he chose to abandon it. He doesn't care about it, it's not his own "thing", he doesn't want it.

Wei Man said with a smile: "Don't worry, I will help you when Duke Yang returns triumphantly, how about that?"

Yu Ziyuan looked at Wei Man suspiciously, Wei Man looked like a "good old man", and said, "You also know that Gu's heart has always been so warm, don't worry, everything is on Gu's body."

Lin Rang and Yang Yue sent troops to Qianyue Mountain, but the distance was not far away. They soon arrived at Qianyue Mountain and camped at the foot of the mountain.

After setting up the shogunate camp, Lin Rang was promoted to the top seat, which was previously occupied by Wei Man, but now it fell on Lin Rang's shoulders.

Lin Rang sat down, and the generals took their seats one after another, calling him "Master".

Lin Rang looked at the generals in the shogunate calmly, and said, "You all know that the purpose of our trip to Qianyue Mountain today is to wipe out the bandit Zhao Lan. If you have any ideas, just say it."

Yang Yue was the first to speak, and said: "Inspector, Zhao Lan's [-] mercenaries are not too many, and they are definitely not too many. The key is that they have plenty of food and wages, and they are on a high mountain. How can we force them to go down the mountain? "

Zhao Lan's food and salary were abundant, because he robbed Chen Zhonglu's supplies, and Zhao Lan took away the supplies of 3 soldiers and horses. They only had [-] people. If they behaved better and did not fight, the food and salary would be even more abundant. It's an exaggerated idea, these [-] supplies are enough for Zhao Lan to eat for a lifetime!

Such sufficient supplies were too difficult for Lin Rang.

The current situation is that Zhao Lan has a lot of supplies, and the army they came to fight, although they have the support of Wei Man in the rear, but the supplies are far less than Zhao Lan's. If the encirclement of the mountain is exhausted, it may not have this strength, and it will take too long. .

Besides, Huaizhong is still fighting, and the bandit suppression must not be delayed for too long, lest it become a drag on the main battlefield.

Lin Rang narrowed his eyes and said, "Order all the soldiers to surround Qianyue Mountain and not release a single bird. Let's not fight Zhao Lan, but use...fire."

"Fire attack?!"

Yang Yue was taken aback. There were 3 people on the mountain and plenty of supplies. Fire attack was indeed a good strategy, but if it really burned, the 3 people and supplies would be wiped out, which would not be good for Lin Rang's reputation.

Besides...

If so many people really died, Wei Man, the coach, will definitely be labeled as a big hat. By then, there will definitely be many people who impeach Wei Man, and they will be thrown into trouble.

Yang Yue was surprised, but Lin Rang looked calm and said, "Go find more torches, don't put real fires, use torches to light up the mountain, so that the people on the mountain look like they are attacking by fire, and at the same time use wet The smoke of firewood gas fumes the bandits on the mountain."

Only then did Yang Yue understand that the fire attack that Lin Rang mentioned was actually using wet firewood to scare the bandits, not the real fire attack.

Yang Yue cupped his hands and said, "Yes, I'll do it now."

Qianyue Mountain was surrounded, but there was no movement on the mountain, and there was still smoke curling up at dusk.

Obviously, Zhao Lan was confident, and she was sure that they had plenty of food and grass, but because Lin Rang couldn't afford it, she didn't plan to confront Lin Rang head-on, and wanted Lin Rang's army to retreat.

Standing at the foot of the mountain, Lin Rang stood with his hands behind his back, squinting his eyes and said, "Don't rush to light the fire, light it after nightfall, order 1 people, and be responsible for waving the flag and shouting."

"Yes!"

into the night.

In midwinter, struggling with the last trace of cold, in early spring, it was warm and cold, and the air in the mountains and forests was filled with an indescribable silence and desolation.

Just when everything is silent...

"kill--!!!"

The soaring roar spread from the bottom of the mountain, Zhao Lan woke up from the dream, immediately turned over, and shouted: "What's the matter?!"

"My lord! My lord!"

His subordinates rushed in from the outside, yelling loudly, "Yes...it's the foot of the mountain. There are a lot of flames at the foot of the mountain. It seems that the mountain has been set on fire! Listening to the shouts, there are at least [-] to [-] people who came to attack!"

"What are you afraid of?!"

Zhao Lan said with an angry face: "We have 3 brothers, why are we afraid of 2 of them?! Copy guys, fight them to the end!! Quick, find water to put out the fire!"

"Yes Yes!"

For a moment, the cottage was in chaos, all the soldiers were dispatched, some went to find water to put out the fire, some picked up their weapons, put on their jackets in a hurry, stepped on their horses, and prepared to go to battle.

Zhao Lan hastily put on the jacket and led the elite troops. They had already left the gate of the village in a mighty way, and drove to the halfway up the mountain. At this moment, the spies sent out turned back.

"Report--!!!"

The spies rushed over and knelt on the ground.

Zhao Lan said: "You can see, how many troops are sent down the mountain!? How is the fire?"

The spy said: "Report to my lord, at the foot of the mountain... no troops have been dispatched at the foot of the mountain."

"No troops?!"

Zhao Lan was dumbfounded: "What do you mean you didn't send troops? What about the fire? How is the fire?"

The spies added: "This...there was no fire at the foot of the mountain."

"No fire?!"

Two times in a row, Zhao Lan was completely lost.

The spy said: "My lord, the fire at the bottom of the mountain is not arson, but torches, and the shouts are not the enemy's sneak attack, but the enemy's... practicing their voices, and they didn't move at all."

When Zhao Lan heard this, she drew her sword angrily to cut down the tree trunk next to her. His arm strength was boundless, "Crack!!" With a loud noise, the tree trunk was split in two.

"A mediocre dog playing tricks on me?!"

Lin Rang did not actually send out troops, but asked 1 people to shout in unison after nightfall, and then asked a group of people to hold torches and shake them constantly, creating the appearance of setting fire to the mountain.

Zhao Lan knew they had been tricked, but now that they were surrounded, it was difficult to break out. The resources were so abundant, and the terrain was easy to defend and difficult to attack, so it was best to adopt conservative measures.

Zhao Lan's personality is quite slippery, and she will never work hard if she can be greedy for petty gains. Therefore, after suffering this "big humiliation", she decided to return to the mountain and not make an offensive.

Yang Yue went to visit in person, and soon came back on horseback. He smiled and said, "The governor expected it to be true. Zhao Lan and the others have been busy all night, and now they have gone back. They did not go down the mountain to confront us head-on."

Lin Rang smiled slightly, and said lightly: "Brothers have worked hard tonight, pass the order, the whole army rests, rest during the day, and continue to light the fire and shout at night."

When Yang Yue heard this, he picked up his lips and laughed, and said, "Inspector, are you trying to be stubborn with Zhao Lan to the end?"

Lin Rang said in a very calm tone: "If you are stubborn, you will naturally accompany me to the end."

After a busy night, Zhao Lan led the troops back to the village. The next day, she slept soundly during the day, and at night, she heard the voice of "Kill!"

Shocking shouts rose straight into the sky, startling all the animals in the mountains and forests. This time it wasn't just the voices of 1 horses, the shouts were overwhelming.

That's right, this time Lin Rang specially asked Yang Yue to order [-] troops, half more than yesterday, shouting in unison, waving flags and shouting non-stop, and lighting torches at the same time.

"It's not good, it's not good!"

His subordinates ran into the village again, galloping all the way, shouting: "My lord!! My lord! It seems that the mountain is about to set fire to march!"

Although Zhao Lan was tricked yesterday, she still had lingering fears, fearing that Lin Rang would really be in the Imperial Army, so she immediately waved her hand and said, "Count out the men and horses, and follow me to fight!"

"Yes--"

Zhao Lan flew down the mountain with her subordinates, and when she reached the middle of the mountain, the sound of waving the flag and shouting stopped, and the fires below the mountain also disappeared sporadically. Lin Rang's trick made them busy.

Zhao Lan was furious, but she didn't dare to go down the mountain to find Lin Rang, so she had to swallow her anger and go back to the village again.

On the third, fourth, and fifth days, they yelled for seven days. Every night, Lin Rang organized the brothers to practice chant.

Yang Yue stood beside Lin Rang on horseback, watching Zhao Lan lead the soldiers to rush down five days ago, halfway through the charge and go back, on the sixth day, Zhao Lan no longer led the soldiers to charge down, but let people come forward On the seventh day, neither Zhao Lan nor the spies showed up.

Yang Yue then said to Lin Rang: "Inspector, we have been shouting for so many days, when will we really attack? Is it possible...to keep shouting like this? We can't burn them to death even if we light a torch and a cigarette."

Lin Rang was completely calm, his eyes were light, but his pupils were like stars in the sky, revealing a cold clarity.

Lin Rang said lightly: "Mr. Yang, have you heard the story of the wolf coming?"

"Wolf is coming?"

Naturally, Yang Yue has never heard of it. After all, The Wolf Is Coming is Aesop's fable, which was written by ancient Greek slaves.

Lin Rang said lightly: "Once upon a time there was a sheep herding boy. He didn't go up to the mountains to herd sheep. He felt bored and had nothing to do, so he yelled 'Wolf is coming, help' to the nearby farmers. When the farmers heard the call for help, they panicked. The sheep-herding boy ran up the mountain to rescue the child. But the shepherd boy laughed when he saw the farmers, saying that they were cheated... The next day, the sheep-herding boy did the same thing and yelled wolf again, teasing the farmers , the sheep-herding boy lied again and again. Every time the farmers ran up the mountain, they didn't see the wolf. Until one day, the wolf really came, and the child shouted, "Wolf is here, help me." The farmer at the foot of the mountain Although they heard it, they didn’t pay attention to it, they all felt that the child was lying, and in the end the child’s sheep were all killed by the wolf.”

When Yang Yue heard it, he clapped his hands with a "snap!" and said, "I see, you are a shepherd at this time, and Zhao Lan is a farmer?"

Lin Rang smiled lightly and said, "Mr. Yang is wrong."

Yang Yue scratched the back of his head, feeling that he was right, Lin Rang kept shouting "Wolf is coming", and Zhao Lan was the farmer who became more and more numb.

Lin Rang laughed. In the dark night, against his pale and cold complexion, he said softly, "I'm not the sheep herding boy, but...a wolf who is going to eat sheep."

Lin Rang stopped talking, reined in his horse, and was about to go back to the camp. He said calmly, "There are not enough wolves coming. Let the wolves pass by for more than half a month."

Yang Yue smiled and said, "Yes!"

On the eighth day, it caught fire again.

On the ninth day, it caught fire again.

On the tenth day, it caught fire again.

Zhao Lan was already numb. She didn't believe that Lin Rang would set fire to the mountain. Hearing the sound of waving flags and shouting, seeing the flames, and smelling the burnt smoke, Zhao Lan didn't feel anything. It was time to eat and sleep. sleep.

"kill--!!!"

"kill--"

This day Zhao Lan had already rested and was still in a dream, when she vaguely heard the sound of killing, she didn't even bother to get up, turned over and continued to sleep.

After a while, the killing sound became louder and louder. Zhao Lan felt a little strange, but she couldn't hold back her drowsiness. She thought it was a dream, and fell into a drowsy dream.

"Bang!!" With a loud noise, the door of the house was rushed open, and his subordinates crashed in from the outside.

"It's not good! It's not good! My lord!"

"My lord! Wake up!"

"Kill it! Kill it! The enemy is coming!"

Zhao Lan was soundly asleep when she was woken up by her subordinate, she opened her eyes, "Slap!" It was a slap, and hit the subordinate's face with a backhand, giving a loud slap on the ear.

"What are you arguing about!? Didn't you see that Lao Tzu is resting?"

The subordinate covered his swollen cheek, ignoring the pain, and said, "My lord! It's really coming up, the enemy! It's the enemy! The governor of Luzhou brought people to kill him!"

"What?" Zhao Lan sat up before she woke up, and said, "It's here again? Don't worry about it. It's just a poor scholar playing house. It's like this every day. You are also a person who has seen big storms. How can you be so flustered?"

Seeing Zhao Lan's disbelief, his subordinates stomped their feet anxiously and said, "My lord! It's absolutely true! It's absolutely true! It's not a joke, they're here to kill you!! It's the enemy army, the governor of Luzhou and Yang Yue, the prefect of Wuhan, who killed... Come up, come up!"

Zhao Lan didn't believe it, and at the very moment when she was talking, she heard a loud "Boom!", as if something had collapsed, coming from outside the door of their house.

Followed by the voice of "Hold the gate of the village! Hurry up and guard the gate of the village".

Zhao Lan was startled when she heard the loud noise, and said, "What's going on?!"

As he said, he scrambled and got off the couch, and ran out quickly, his clothes were not neatly dressed, let alone his clothes.

After rushing out of the house, I saw the fire in the cottage, all the sheds in the cottage were on fire, and the torches were shining in all directions, lighting up the cottage like daylight.

"kill--!!"

"Keep the gate!"

"The gate of the village is lost! The gate of the village is lost!"

"Quickly inform the lord!"

"What should I do?! I'm killing you!"

The cottage was in chaos, because it had been a full half a month, so the soldiers in the village didn't take it seriously at all, they just went about their daily routines, without any precautions, everyone was like Zhao Lan, and they were still immersed in it just now. In his sleep, he was not wearing a jacket, let alone any weapons.

As a vanguard, Yang Yue led the soldiers and charged in first. With a spear in his hand, he directly picked up a soldier and flew in. He laughed and rushed in, saying: "The cottage has been surrounded by us, don't hurry up!" Capture without a fight?!"

As soon as Zhao Lan saw Yang Yue, she cursed, "Damn it, it's just in time!"

Yang Yue is tall, but not strong. Because of his flamboyant appearance, he doesn't have the majesty of Wei Man, nor the majesty of Yu Ziyuan. Compared with Zhao Lan, who is like a mountain, he is far from enough.

Zhao Lan wasn't afraid of Yang Yue, she thought he was an embroidered pillow, so she grabbed a horse, got on the horse's back, and shouted, "I'm going to fight you hard!!!"

As he spoke, he rode his horse and galloped towards Yang Yue. Then he took out his weapon from his waist. He wanted to take out his weapon, but he looked down...

Zhao Lan was still wearing a middle coat, and the clothes draped over her shoulders had already fallen to the ground due to her running wildly. There was no jacket on her body, and there was only a scabbard around her waist. The sword should still be in the room at this time.

Zhao Lan's mind went "hum--", without weapons, it's like infantry versus cavalry, how is this a class?

Zhao Lan was just as imposing as a rainbow, but instantly became depressed. She hurriedly rode her horse and turned around to run away, not letting Yang Yue know how powerful he was.

Yang Yue saw how he could let Zhao Lan go, and laughed and said, "Don't run away!"

Yang Yue chased after her horse, Zhao Lan rushed forward, the brothers in the village were already chaotic, but when they saw the scene where the lord was being chased by the enemy generals, they became even more chaotic, the army's morale was unstable, and they were abnormally lax .

Yang Yue stabbed with a "chuck!" Zhao Lan saw the shadow on the ground, so scared that she immediately fell on the horse's back, raised the whip vigorously, and urged the horse to run wildly.

Seeing so many enemy troops around, Zhao Lan seemed to feel that she was invincible, and when she rolled her eyes, she wanted to abandon the crowd and run away.

Zhao Lan rushed out of the village, Yang Yue sneered and said, "Run!! Keep running! If you run again, you will regret it!"

Zhao Lan said in her heart, I will regret it if I don't run away!

Hearing Yang Yue's voice, he swung his whip vigorously, and just as he was about to rush out of the gate, he suddenly saw a white shadow appearing not far in front of him like a ghost.

Lin Rang!

Isn't this exactly Lin Rang?

Different from Yang Yue's military uniform, Lin Rang was wearing a fairy-like white dress, like a banished fairy's white clothes, which was very eye-catching in the dark, reflecting the boiling fire, and in Zhao Lan's eyes, immediately aroused great anger.

"what!!!"

Zhao Lan roared, and rode her horse towards Lin Rang. Seeing that Lin Rang was on his own, she seemed to want to capture him, or use him as a hostage to threaten the enemy.

Zhao Lan went crazy, like a crazy beast, rushed towards Lin Rang, her eyes were cracked, red and bloodshot, and shouted: "I will be with you today..."

perish together!

Before he finished speaking, "Gudong!!", Zhao Lan's shout suddenly changed to "Ah~!?", turned a corner, and fell headfirst from the horse's back .

It turned out that Lin Rang's sudden appearance in front of Zhao Lan was actually to attract the flames of war, not so stupid that he threw himself into the trap.

Zhao Lan was overwhelmed by anger, so she didn't think much about it at all, she just wanted to capture Lin Rang as a hostage, and vent her anger.

In addition, it was too dark, so Zhao Lan didn't notice that there was a tripping rope on the ground!

Zhao Lan flew out in an instant, "Bang!!", and fell headfirst to the ground, knocked down with a nosebleed, and her head
