"The letter from General Xiang, the military leader."

The messenger trotted to Zhou Dunyi and respectfully handed a letter to Zhou Dunyi.

After taking it, Zhou Dunyi opened the letter, took out a piece of letter paper, looked through it carefully for a while, then nodded gently, then waved his hand, and waited until the messenger withdrew from the camp, then threw the letter paper on the chopping board, and said to the officers around him with a chuckling.

"This is really a treasure sword. I just arrived at Tianzhu Mountain and sent me a big gift. Please take a look."

Listening to Zhou Dunyi's words, these officers naturally couldn't understand anything. They went up to pick up the letter paper and took it together. After a few glances, they said with some emotion.

"I am worthy of being the leader of the famous Xiang family. General Xiang Mo fought this battle beautifully."

"Yes, if General Xiang Mo's ability to respond to the situation is on us, I'm afraid he's already on the way to gather the defeated troops and withdraw his country."

Zhou Dunyi smiled but said nothing. Xiang Mo's letter said that he was ambushed when he led his two armies to Tianzhu Mountain. It seemed that Dong Xun's ambush seemed to have been prepared. Even on the way to Xiang Mo's way to Tianzhu Mountain, several ambushed troops were set up to wait for Xiang Mo's army to attack him from front to back.

Fortunately, Xiang Mo noticed something wrong in advance and came to a counter-encirclement. Xiang Mo himself even went to fight to kill the enemy. Fortunately, one of the two armies mobilized by Xiang Mo was soldiers drawn by Zhou Dunyi from the main battle corps of Jinling, Nanli. He had a very strong combat power, so he blocked the charge of Dongxun's army. Then, under the leadership of Xiang Mo, the beheading of this battle reached 3,000 levels, seized more than a thousand leather armor, and lost hundreds of people. It was a beautiful victory.

But the victory is a deeper reason why Zhou Dunyi smiles but doesn't say anything.

The location of Tianzhu Mountain is sandwiched between the two countries of Nanli and Dongxun. Normally, the Dongxun army is not good at running far away to such a place to leave the army to guard. Because of the terrain of Tianzhu Mountain, it is good to use Nanli to defend the troops, but Dongxun's words can only be said to be exhausted.

What's more, Xiang Mo led his troops to garrison Tianzhu Mountain, and his whereabouts could not be detected by Dongxun so easily, not to mention that the ambush set up by Dongxun there was already prepared.

The biggest possibility is that there are spies in the army.

Otherwise, the military generals who had never seen any world would never be able to send troops to garrison Tianzhu Mountain.

Of course, it is possible that there are really fools in the Dongxun army, but Xiang Mo also said in his letter that the number of troops that ambushed them is as large as more than the fourth army.

What is the concept of the Fourth Army?

The full organization of the first army is 6,000, and the fourth army is 24,000. Only Shen Baoxu has the right to mobilize such a number of generals.

Will Shen Baoxu make such a fool's mistake? It's impossible. Although we have never met, Zhou Dunyi has already placed Shen Baoxu on the column of young talent. Will such a person make such a mistake? It's simply the first time.

So, there must be a spy Xiang Dongxun who revealed his orders to Shen Baoxu that day.

The most likely one was all the senior officers who participated in the military convention that day. As for the soldiers below, they could not hear the sound of Zhou Dunyi's orders at all, and they only knew the mission and destination of the trip just before leaving.

Seeing an officer not speaking and his expression was a little wrong, Zhou Dunyi suddenly became curious and asked to him.

"What do you think about this?"

The officer was the captain who had been having a long night talk with General Huang a few days ago. When he first saw this letter, his face was stunned. He could never have thought that he would pass on the news to Dongxun in advance, but in the end, Dongxun lost the small battle. Suddenly, he was beginning to fall into self-doubt, suspecting that the gap between Dongxun and Nanli's army was really so big, Zhou Dunyi's sudden question interrupted his thoughts.

He pretended to be calm and calmly analyzed.

"It is true that General Xiang Mo won this battle, but I think what we need to talk about should not just talk about the loss or loss of this battle, but what we should pay attention to is why Dong Xun planted an ambush in Tianzhu Mountain in advance. I think we need to discuss the reasons for this."

Slap

Zhou Dunyi applauded, looked at the captain with a little appreciation, and asked.

"Yes, what's your name?"

"A subordinate Jiang Gan is now serving as the captain of the army."

Jiang Gan replied in a humble and arrogant manner.

Zhou Dunyi nodded slightly, then looked around the officers again, tapped the chopping board with his fingers, and said to the officers in a stronger tone.

"Okay, you guys seem to have been staying in Gentlemen for a long time. Let's talk about your opinions now."

Seeing that Zhou Dunyi stopped looking at him, Jiang Gan breathed a long sigh of relief while the person was not paying attention. Fortunately, he reacted quickly and pointed out this message in advance with a sudden inspiration. It could be considered as a temporary picking him out of the crowd that Zhou Dunyi would be suspicious next. Fortunately, it was okay.

"Military Master, is that coach Dongxun's mind twitching? They also want to seize Tianzhu Mountain as a bridgehead?"

The honest and strong officer didn't think much and made this statement directly, but as soon as this sentence was released, it attracted the laughter of other officers.

"You rash man, I think you're just thrusting, and you're back to the bridgehead. The terrain of Tianzhu Mountain is a bridgehead for them. You can make jokes here."

"That's right? General Niu, you should do your job honestly. If you use your brain, just stay calm and stop talking."

Seeing these people start to mock General Niu, Zhou Dunyi's face turned cold. The officers also immediately noticed the change in their military leader's expression, and then stopped their laughter and kept their mouths in their mouths.

Zhou Dunyi snorted coldly, then looked at Jiang Gan again, saying

"you say."

Jiang Gan's expression remained unchanged. He first wrote a compilation to everyone, and then began to express his opinions.

"The subordinates believe that the most likely thing at present is that there are spies installed by Dongxun in the army. Otherwise, Dongxun would definitely not set up ambushers in Tianzhu Mountain, and Tianzhu Mountain is all over. In this battle, there is no use value for Dongxun. If the commander of Dongxun had not learned the news in advance, it would be impossible to transfer troops to seize Tianzhu Mountain."

Good seedlings, good.

Zhou Dunyi's expression eased a lot, but his eyes were still cold when he looked at the other officers, and he was obviously unhappy with the tone of the next speech.

"Okay, let me put away those bad habits and express my opinion to me. It can also be said to give me a reasonable explanation."

However, what followed was a long silence. These officers were all looking at me and I, and none of them took the initiative to say the first sentence.

Everyone is not stupid. What the army leader says now is to let everyone come out to prove their innocence, no matter what they say is true

It's fake. Zhou Dunyi wants it, but they are now showing their opinions, that's all.

But now everyone is struggling and troubled. No one wants to be the one who stands out. They just say the one who stands out. Their current intuition is that they don’t want to be the first to jump out and explain to the military leader.

But no one expected that these guys' thoughts were the same. No one wanted to jump out first, so this scene appeared and fell into a long silence.

Zhou Dunyi's palm had already clenched into a fist, and blue veins burst out, slamming the chopping board with one punch, smashing the thick chopping board into a sunken pit.

The next second, seeing that no one said anything, they all lowered their heads. Zhou Dunyi really wanted to rush forward and punch each of these guys, but Zhou Dunyi restrained the impulse.

So, Zhou Dunyi, with a gray face, walked out of the tent without saying a word.

In the camp, only these officers were left looking at each other.

But not long after looking at each other, Zhou Dunyi came back, but at the same time when he came back this time, the military judge followed behind Zhou Dunyi.

After Zhou Dunyi sat on the chair, the officers saw the military judge standing behind Zhou Dunyi and closed his eyes to rest. One by one, they wanted to explain, but Zhou Dunyi glared at them, and then, Zhou Dunyi looked at Jiang Gan and asked.

"As you can see, since the garrison of Tianzhu Mountain has been exposed, how should our army act next?"

"The army leader is only one lieutenant, so how can he decide the arrangements for the large army?"

Jiang Gan quickly replied.

This is a pit. Zhou Dunyi came to him and asked him rashly. If he continued to speak freely, he would finally pick himself out. Once he took the blame, he would be on Zhou Dunyi's list of suspicions again.

I am a lieutenant, and I have no background in my current identity, and I am not a confidant of General Nanli. Why should Zhou Dunyi, a famous general, ask you how to arrange the marching of a large army?

Zhou Dunyi frowned and then continued

"It's okay, I'll help you express your opinion."

Hearing Zhou Dunyi say this, Jiang Gan said in a deep voice

"The reason why the army leader you stationed in Tianzhu Mountain was because if Tianzhu Mountain was in the hands of our army, it could attack and retreat or defend. It was a rare strategic treasure land. However, now that the military information is leaked, the advancement and attack of Tianzhu Mountain will be lost. In this case, our army will lose a lot of help. My subordinates dared to propose that the army leader mobilize the Jingzhou naval army as backup assistance and arrange a military force in Yueyang County. The number of people does not need to be too large, one or two thousand people. In this way, our army can resume the previous second front again."

Zhou Dunyi narrowed his eyes slightly, and his eyes changed slightly when he looked at Jiang Gan, and then continued to ask.

"As you see, who can station in Yueyang?"

Jiang Gan was immediately delighted. He thought that this matter would require the help of that person, but he did not expect that he would let the opportunity come to him now. God is really helping me.

"The subordinates are brave enough to take on this position."

"Huang Gai, is that?"

After pondering for a while, Zhou Dunyi looked at the officers who didn't say anything, nodded, and said

"Okay, I'll order Huang Gai to lead his subordinates to Yueyang County at the next day to rush to the Jingzhou Navy Army. The general personally wrote a letter from Huang Gai to the Jingzhou Navy Army camp."

Jiang Gan's eyes lit up.

The plan is done!
Chapter completed!
