Chapter 697: Sleeping to Find the Peace of a Southern Barbarian
Chapter 697: Sleeping with the peace of a southern barbarian——
Damn Guan Suo, it’s really damn——
At this moment, Bao Sanniang walked into Chengdu city, but her face was full of sadness and she was at a loss. This was probably the mood she was in.
I originally followed my husband to come to Chengdu, but in the end we didn’t get very far? She lost her husband.
Not to mention, losing her husband makes her unable to hold her head high in front of her sisters Wang Tao and Wang Yue. What kind of temperament does her husband Guan Suo have? She understands so well!
If Bao Sanniang dares to lose him, that man will definitely go all the way to the west, accompanied by the spring breeze all the way——
It's a done deal - there's no running away!
In fact, Bao Sanniang had a strong premonition that if she couldn't find her husband, then... it would take as little as one month, as many as two or three months, and Xiao Guansuo would be born if he didn't get it back.
"Alas... alas..."
Along the way, Bao Sanniang sighed countless times, and she even secretly made up her mind to find Guan Suo, otherwise... she would be nailed to the pillar of shame forever.
Nailed on the pillar of shame in Guan’s backyard——
With this in mind, she raised the leather whip on her waist, Bao Sanniang pursed her lips, and strode forward.
Walking out of Yongxiang...after passing this cold street, in front of you is the Military Advisor General's Mansion in Chengdu.
Bao Sanniang knew that her husband's trip to the west was to come to Chengdu to fulfill his fourth brother's instructions.
Since she came to Chengdu, she had to meet the military advisor and general Zhuge Liang, so... Bao Sanniang's destination had been here since the beginning of her search for her husband.
——Meet Zhuge’s military advisor and inquire about the whereabouts of my husband.
Speaking of which, because it was wartime, Chengdu was still heavily guarded, especially the Military Advisor General's Mansion.
You can clearly see the guard standing tightly outside the door.
In addition, there are many soldiers patrolling the streets here all the time.
Because Bao Sanniang had a token from Jingzhou, she went directly to the Military Advisor General's Mansion.
It's because she is young and pretty.
A harmless girl will inevitably make people feel pity for her.
Sure enough, before Bao Sanniang could walk out of Yongxiang, she was suddenly grabbed by a pair of big hands on the shoulders.
For a woman like her, having her shoulders pressed down was nothing short of a huge frivolity. Bao Sanniang turned around and immediately reached for the leather whip around her waist.
She never thought that what appeared in front of her was... a dark-skinned girl, no, a honey-skinned woman.
This is the first time Bao Sanniang has seen a woman with such skin color.
On the side, the clear-cut dimples on the face are both resolute and yet soft.
The high nose bridge adds a bit of three-dimensionality to the woman's face, and the plump lips are like bright rose petals, both sexy and powerful.
No, her entire appearance was filled with unique wild power.
——"Yes, a foreign woman?" 』
Bao Sanniang couldn't help but moan...
And this woman is Huawan.
It is no exaggeration to say that this barbarian girl left a deep impression on Bao Sanniang, but it seemed that this was not the reason for her to hold her shoulders and stop her from stepping forward.
"What are you doing?"
"Stop!" Hua Wan said in an unquestionable tone.
A brief conversation…
Bao Sanniang was annoyed by this the most. She didn't say anything and was about to pull out her riding whip.
Huawan, on the other hand, remained silent after her conversation with Bao Sanniang, her eyes always staring at the Military Advisor General's Mansion across the street.
Even when Bao Sanniang wanted to whip out her whip, she was indifferent, as if something was tugging deeply at her heart.
It's too late to say it, but it will be soon...
at this time…
"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh——"
The sharp sound of arrows pierced the quiet night, and the rain of arrows like locusts suddenly shot towards the general's mansion. In an instant, more than a dozen guards fell to the ground after being struck by arrows.
At this time, the guards at the Military Advisor General's Mansion felt something was wrong.
"Close the door, everyone retreats into the house, and forms a formation to defend against the enemy——"
This scene happened so fast that Bao Sanniang felt overwhelmed. She would never have imagined that right in Chengdu City, right in front of the Military Advisor General's Mansion, a raid was going on right now, and this so-called The target of the raid is most likely military advisor Zhuge Kongming!
"etc? What about Wei Zhi? He's not in this mansion, is he? 』
For a moment, Bao Sanniang couldn't help but worry.
But it was Huawan next to her. It was obvious that she was well aware of the actions here.
She just squinted her eyes and waited quietly. As the arrows became denser and "fire arrows" were added, the scene became even more chaotic.
"It's on fire, put out the fire quickly, put out the fire quickly——"
"Where is the military advisor? Where are the military advisor and his wife -"
"There's an ambush outside, and they're still inside! How dare they go out?"
"Asking for help, asking for help quickly——"
In the chaos, various voices came out one after another...
Bao Sanniang could no longer contain the worry in her heart. She had already pulled out her riding whip and was about to save people...
Unexpectedly, she was still firmly held by Huawan's hand.
"Are you going to die?"
The Chinese with a slight Nanman accent could not calm the throbbing in Bao Sanniang's heart at this moment.
Suddenly, she noticed something. She quickly withdrew her hand, pointed her riding crop at Huawan and said, "You and these assassins are in the same group, right?"
"I don't know these assassins..." Hua Wan didn't explain, just said it casually.
"Then how do you know?"
Before Bao Sanniang could speak, the barbarian Mang Yachang had already rushed over and said in barbarian language: "Young Master, everything has been arranged. There are eyes at the city gates and the Shu army camp outside the city. As long as the news reaches them, they will know how many people are left in Chengdu——"
Bao Sanniang did not understand Mang Yachang's barbarian language, so she raised her voice, "What did he say?"
Perhaps it was pity between peers;
Perhaps she had a special feeling for this beautiful girl;
Or perhaps it was some strong premonition, so strong that Hua Man felt that she and the girl in front of her... would form some kind of bond!
Hua Man did not know why she would take the initiative to explain so much to Bao Sanniang.
"You stay here obediently, nothing will happen here, this mansion...they can't attack it, everything will be calm."
As Hua Man said, this was originally a test.
It was a test of the Five Pecks of Rice Sect lurking in Chengdu against the garrison in Chengdu.
Now, the attack on the military advisor and general's mansion is just to mobilize all the city defense troops. Considering Zhuge Liang's current status, hearing about the assassination and attack, all the soldiers in Chengdu will rush here to rescue.
In this way, as long as eyes are set up at each city gate and outside the Shu army camp outside the city...
, it is easy to see the number of Shu troops deployed in the entire Chengdu.
This is the strategy decided by Hua Man, Mang Ya Chang and the ghost woman Zhang Yulan after discussion.
Ghost woman Zhang Yulan has a way to mobilize troops and prepare a large number of fire arrows, so she will send people to feint to attack Zhuge Liang's mansion.
Hua Man and Mang Ya Chang did not bring enough barbarian troops, so they sent people to follow and sent all the barbarians under their command to act as eyes.
Bao Sanniang naturally did not understand these, and directly raised the whip to attack Hua Man.
But firstly, she overestimated her own strength;
Secondly, he underestimated the strength of the guard "Mang Ya Chang" beside Hua Man.
As the most outstanding general under Meng Huo, if the original trajectory of history is followed, he will use a cleaver and ride a yellow horse, and can fight with Wang Ping and even defeat Wang Ping in the end.
This kind of strength is certainly not as good as a first-class general, but it is too easy to deal with Bao Sanniang.
Sure enough...
With the sound of "crackling".
Bao Sanniang felt great pressure immediately after just waving the whip.
The so-called "one force defeats ten skills" is really performed on the opponent...
"Woo-ah--"
Accompanied by a throat lock, Bao Sanniang was almost strangled to death by "Mang Ya Chang". Fortunately, Hua Man showed mercy and shouted to Mang Ya Chang in barbarian language, "We are here only to investigate, don't kill people, let her go--"
Hearing this,
Mang Yachang exerted force on his hand and chopped Bao Sanniang's back of the head with his palm. Immediately, Bao Sanniang collapsed to the ground like a wilted eggplant and fell unconscious.
Hua Man looked at the fallen Bao Sanniang, paused for a moment, and then emphasized again: "What is the deployment of the Shu army? You and I don't know, and we can't judge whether it is an enemy or a friend. At this time, don't make trouble."
As Hua Man said, it was the ghost woman who did it, and it was their people...
No matter what the final result is, as long as no lives are lost in the hands of the barbarians, then these things have nothing to do with them!
Don't the Han people pay attention to the so-called-protecting themselves?
"Young master, look--"
At this time, Mang Yachang pointed to the place where the battle was fought.
It turned out that a horse rushed out of the military advisor and general's mansion. The knight on the horse was in armor and tried to break through for help, but he had been seen by the archers who were ambushed outside. They shot arrows together and shot the man and the horse into a hedgehog, falling a hundred steps away.
"They want to ask for help, but it seems they can't get out."
Mang Yachang sighed.
Hua Man pursed her lips, "This is what I discussed with the ghost woman. We can't let them go out. It is rumored that Zhuge Kongming is as smart as a demon. Most likely he can see through our calculations. If someone really takes the news out, it will be convenient for him to deploy!"
Hearing this, Mang Yachang nodded heavily.
Indeed, this surprise attack was originally a feint. Even if the guards in Chengdu were empty, it would be impossible to attack Zhuge Liang's mansion. What's more, the troops from the periphery will come to help.
What Hua Man has to do is to cut off the connection between the military advisor and the general's mansion and let the Shu army from the periphery gather together.
So...Is Chengdu empty? It can be seen at a glance——
…
…
"What?"
Outside a wine shop in the suburbs of Chengdu, Guan Suo and Yang Yi were originally guarding the periphery. When they learned that the military advisor and general's mansion was attacked, they both showed extremely surprised expressions.
It was as if he was questioning the authenticity of the news.
Subconsciously, Yang Yi took a step to run towards the city to support Zhuge Liang.
Or Guan Suo seemed to have suddenly figured out something, and then he grabbed Yang Yi's arm at the first time. He was so strong that he pulled Yang Yi over directly.
"What are you doing?"
"Aren't you curious about how they left this wine shop?"
Guan Suo could still analyze calmly, but Yang Yi was already impatient. He roared loudly, "Compared to how they left, I am more worried about the safety of Military Advisor Kong Ming--"
"Military Advisor Kong Ming will be fine!" Guan Suo said this firmly.
At this time, the guards who entered the wine shop in advance had already searched and left the wine shop. Seeing Guan Suo and Yang Yi, they hurriedly reported, "There is a secret passage in the wine shop--"
"Sure enough..." Guan Suo muttered in a low voice.
Yang Yi seemed to be unable to hear anything. He shouted loudly: "Now that you know they have a secret channel, so what? Can you save Military Advisor Kong Ming?"
It was obvious that Yang Yi was really anxious.
Guan Suo explained: "The raid, fire arrows, and no forced attack are enough to prove that the number of enemies is not large... Moreover, no matter how empty the city of Chengdu is, there are still 3,000 people. If the military advisor general's mansion is attacked, what else can we do?" Soon, the defenders at the city gates, the patrols in the city, and the troops from the military camps in the suburbs will rush to help... many of you..."
Speaking of this, Yang Yi seemed to calm down a little, but Guan Suo's brows condensed, "What I'm most worried about is that this is the barbarian woman's test... From the troops supporting the Military Advisor General's Mansion, Chengdu can be tested The reality..."
"ah--"
Yang Yi was shocked when she heard this.
Logically speaking, in terms of numerical values alone, his intelligence is above Guan Suo, but it is one thing to have high intelligence, and it is another thing to be chaotic if you care.
After going through a complicated brain circuit, Yang Yi finally came back to his senses.
"What should we do?"
"What can I do?" Guan Suo pursed his lips, then narrowed his eyes slightly, sighed "Alas", and then this time he took the initiative and took steps to run towards the city gate?
"Why are you so anxious this time?" Yang Yi shouted while chasing.
As Guan Suo ran, he replied in deep thought: "You still have the nerve to ask me? It's all you who delayed my original plan. My fourth brother asked me to come here because I wanted to sleep with that barbarian girl..."
Well…
Following these words, Yang Yi, who was chasing Guan Suo, was stunned and paused.
There were two words lingering in his mind.
persuade? Pajamas? Which "service" is it...ah, which one is "sleeping"?
…
…
Looking at the situation at the Military Advisor General's Mansion, it is already quite difficult at the moment.
But for Zhuge Liang, everything seems to be like a mirror.
It is precisely because of this that he and Huang Yueying were not in the front hall, and they did not intervene in the conflict outside the door. Even Zhuge Liang was still calmly reviewing documents in Shu in the study room in the back hall.
In contrast to Zhuge Liang's calmness and calmness, Huang Yueying is a woman after all. She will inevitably feel nervous and worried when she encounters this kind of enemy coming to her door.
But what she is worried about is not here, but...
"You should be calm. If the guards cannot break through, they will not be able to pass your orders outside. If the orders cannot be passed out, soldiers from the whole city will come here to rescue. When the city gates are empty and the barracks are empty, what will happen to Chengdu?" How many garrisons there are... You can see them all at a glance. My husband, your deployment for many days has been ruined in one fell swoop."
Listening to his wife Huang Yueying's words, Zhuge Liang seemed very indifferent.
It was as if he was confident from beginning to end.
Huang Yueying asked again and again, and Zhuge Liang said, "Yun Qi mentioned something in his letter. Now that he thinks about it, it might be the best way to break the situation?"
"What?" Huang Yueying asked urgently.
Zhuge Liang said unhurriedly, "Yun Qi never wanted Chengdu to hide the fact that it was empty. The reason why he sent Wei Zhi here was for one purpose, which was to let Wei Zhi convince the barbarian king's daughter! "
"Persuasion?" Huang Yueying was stunned, "Isn't this a little too taken for granted..."
"If this letter was sent by someone else, I would think the same thing as Madam, but..." Zhuge Liang pondered for a moment, and then continued, "But since it was sent by Yun Qi, I think... he has feelings for his younger brother. Anyone who has absolute confidence has confidence, so we should also have confidence—"
"Persuasion...persuasion..." Huang Yueying's lips were whispering.
Zhuge Liang closed his eyes slightly and murmured in his heart: "Actually, Yunqi's letter mentioned sleeping clothes. It was to allow Wei Zhi to sleep in a stable rear area, a place of stability for the southern barbarians!" Sleeping clothes...are they suitable for sleeping in? 』
Zhuge Liang thought of this.
The sound of "Zheng, Zheng" crossbows continued.
However, there was already the sound of horse hooves and footsteps in the distance. It was obvious that the first wave of reinforcements was about to arrive.
Zhuge Liang looked as calm as ever, but Zhang Yi, the general guarding the gate, finally breathed a sigh of relief.
In fact, the defense of the General's Mansion is complex. In addition to soldiers, there are also various types of Qimen Dunjia and Five Elements Bagua. It is almost impossible to break in without thousands of people.
But now, these are not important. For the defenders here, the safety of Zhuge's military advisor... is always the first priority.
Over here, this raid came and went quickly...
By the time all the reinforcements arrived, the assassin had already fled, leaving no trace of anyone except for the arrows and crossbows scattered all over the place.
Over there, Hua Wan and Mong Ya Zhang, who was carrying Bao Sanniang on his back, immediately evacuated to a secluded courtyard and then placed the unconscious Bao Sanniang on the ground.
Busy Yazhang still complained: "We just withdrew, why are we going behind her back?"
Huawan replied: "She has seen you and me, and cannot be handed over to the Shu army at this time."
The two of them were chatting up to this point.
"哐哐——"
"哐哐——"
"哐哐——"
"哐——"
Three long and one short knocks sounded, and Mung Ya Chang immediately became alert, but Hua Wan said, "This is the secret signal for knocking, and the person coming is one of our own."
It was after hearing this that Mong Ya Chang released his hand from the saber on his waist, and his whole mind relaxed a lot.
Huawan is going to open the door...
Sure enough, it was Zhang Yulan, the ghost woman, who entered the door. In addition to her, Zhang Qiying and Zhang Zhu also followed.
Obviously, when she saw Hua Man, Zhang Yulan's eyes flickered a little, but only for a moment, and Zhang Yulan regained her usual look, "Your people have already gathered all the information to me. As expected, there are only 3,000 defenders in Chengdu City, and the defense of the entire Shuzhong is very empty!"
After taking the bamboo slips handed over by Zhang Yulan and recognizing the words written on them, Hua Man nodded and hurriedly ordered Mang Yachang, "Quick, send a message to father by flying eagle, let him know that the defense of Shuzhong is empty, and it is a great opportunity to go north to seize Shuzhong!"
"Yes..."
Hearing this, Mang Yachang turned around and went to get the eagle cage.
Who would have thought that at this moment, Zhang Zhuo, who came with Zhang Yulan, suddenly opened his mouth, "This warrior, since you want to send a message by flying eagle, you might as well send this as well..."
As he spoke, Zhang Zhuo caught up with Mang Yachang
Mang Yachang thought it was a token that could prove the emptiness of Shuzhong, so he didn't have the slightest defense, turned his head and reached out to take it.
Who would have thought that at this moment, a cold dagger would directly pierce his body.
It was in the chest...
With a "whoosh", blood suddenly gushed out, so that the big and strong Mang Yachang stumbled back repeatedly, looking at Zhang Zhuo with a look of confusion.
And Zhang Zhuo ignored Mang Yachang at all, and the second dagger on his waist was already pulled out, and the cold blade stabbed directly towards Hua Man——
