There are ruins, raging fires burning in many places, and corpses lying on the ground everywhere. Is this Yangyi?
Looking at the tragic situation in front of him, Xiao Wei Mou hoped that he was hallucinating, but the facts were here and he had to believe it.
"Report to the general!" A soldier knelt down in front of him and said: "According to the only survivor here, they were attacked by a group of cavalry of unknown origin this morning. The number was more than a thousand. Those people acted
Quickly, the number of defenders here was small and something unexpected happened, and they were all killed in just a quarter of an hour!"
"A cavalry team of more than a thousand people?" Xiao Wei Mou shouted: "Can you find out their identities?"
The man raised a bloody arrow with two words clearly engraved on it - Camel Dragon. It turns out he is Ji Jie's person! He is also Ji Jie's person. How come he always appears in unexpected places?
Give you a heavy blow.
Xiao Wei Mou's nearly 20,000 troops walked hungry for more than ten miles. They wanted to have a full meal in Yangyi before making any plans. Unexpectedly, Yangyi was destroyed. The nearest city was thirty miles away.
Do you want to continue to walk hungry for another thirty miles?
After settling the issue of food and fodder for the Wei army last night, Ji Jie immediately returned to Tuolong Pass and ordered Zhao Ling to lead his troops to file out from Houguan, detour to Yangyi, and launch an attack in the early morning.
Zhao Ling fulfilled his mission and successfully completed it. The moment Wei Mou ordered the retreat, he had already led his men back through another route.
"Your Majesty, why don't you let me harass the Wei army along the way?" Zhao Ling said, "They have no food supplies and are no different from a group of sheep waiting to be slaughtered. I promise to fight them beautifully!"
"Don't chase after the poor enemy!" Ji Jie waved his hand and said: "After all, the Wei army has 20,000 people, and they have just had a hungry meal. Although the military morale has been affected to some extent, it is not deep enough, so we don't have to worry!"
The news of Wei Mou's defeat soon spread to Daliang City, and the whole country was in an uproar. At the beginning of the launch of the army, everyone held the belief of victory, thinking how could a small Tuolong Pass stop 20,000 Wei soldiers.
The impact was huge, not to mention that the general Xiao Wei Mou personally took command.
From the dispatch of troops to the defeat, it only took a few days. Although the number of casualties was less than one-tenth of the total force, 20,000 people were beaten by 3,000 people and returned in despair. They still fled all the way back hungry.
, somewhat unjustifiable.
Xiao Wei Mou led his men into the city. Many soldiers collapsed directly on the street, unable to pull themselves up. Countless weapons and equipment were lost along the way. Fortunately, they were lost on the land of their own country.
Just send some people to pick it up.
You are a coward. Wei Mou has been in the army for half his life, and he has never fought such a coward battle. Now he is full of evil and has no place to vent his anger. A group of subordinates are ruthless, and no one takes the initiative to touch this bad luck.
"Call Wu Yizhi in!" Xiao Wei Mou shouted.
Wu Yizhi ran in full of piss, knelt on the ground tremblingly and said, "Brother-in-law, you called me?"
At this moment, he really wanted to slap this unsatisfactory brother-in-law to death. If you hadn't lost Tuolong Pass, I wouldn't have led my troops here, let alone make such a big joke. So far,
The matter of the five thousand dans of military rations is still a mystery!
How do you want me to explain these things to the king, and how do you want me to explain them to everyone in the Wei Kingdom?
"Go back to Tuolong Pass!" Xiao Wei Mou said.
"Ah?" Wu Yizhi opened his mouth: "Brother-in-law, you can't let me die. I am the only one in our Wu family!"
"Stop talking nonsense to me!" Xiao Wei Mou pulled out his sword and put it on Wu Yizhi's neck, saying: "If you don't go, I will make your Wu family the last one now! Go back quietly and find your family."
The men who were imprisoned found an opportunity to kill Ji Jie and atone for their sins, you know, otherwise you will die!"
Wu Yizhi's legs slumped and he sat on the ground. Isn't this a joke? If there was such a chance, I wouldn't have been locked up in the dungeon for so long.
There was an order from outside, and the envoy from the King of Wei arrived.
When the King of Wei heard the news of the defeat, he was furious and scolded Wei Mou mercilessly in front of all the ministers. Wei Wuji, Lord Xinling, added insult to injury and almost deposed him from the title of general.
After calming down and thinking about it, the King of Wei was unwilling to accept such a failure, and immediately ordered an envoy to come to urge Wei Mou to regroup, capture Tuolong Pass in a short time, and wash away his previous shame.
Two thousand dan of army rations have already set off, and another three thousand dan will be on the road soon. The matter of rations has been settled.
Wei Wuji united a group of confidants and began to exert pressure on public opinion to persuade King Wei to withdraw. Although no substantial results were achieved at the beginning, it was still effective. At least King Wei An's desire for victory had been reduced to a minimum. As long as
Xiao Wei Mou has experienced another defeat, and this matter is finally over.
In the main tent of Tuolong Pass, Ji Jie and Sima Xueran sat down face to face.
"Junior sister, why did the teacher send you here to help me?" Ji Jie never had time to ask this question, and now he finally had the chance.
Sima Xueran is an unsmiling girl, with a cold expression at all times. At least since she appeared until now, Ji Jie has never seen her smile, except for a few sneers of course.
How can a sneer count as a smile?
"As for the teacher's intention, I don't know!" Sima Xueran shook his head and said: "I was concentrating on studying the art of war. The teacher personally found me and asked me to bring a sun-shooting bow to help my senior brother!"
"That means you are allowed to follow me and be used by me?" Ji Jie asked with a smile.
Sima Xueran was stunned for a moment and did not answer.
Ji Jie couldn't understand what the old man Guiguzi meant by sending such a beautiful female disciple. Was it just to give him a bow? No, it must not be that simple.
Wait, her name is Sima Xueran, her surname is Sima!
"Junior sister, do you have any connection with the Sima family of Zhongshan Kingdom?" Ji Jie suddenly found the key to the problem.
Sima Xueran once again looked at Ji Jie with admiration, nodded and said, "Xueran is the direct descendant of the Sima family in Zhongshan, and later became a disciple of Teacher Guigu!"
That's right, the Sima family of Zhongshan Kingdom, the famous intelligence masters in the Seven Kingdoms, has countless spies in the Seven Kingdoms, and can get all the information you want. Of course, the premise is that you can afford this high-level intelligence.
Price!
Later, the Zhongshan Kingdom was destroyed by the Zhao Kingdom, and the Sima family lost its backer, but the Centipede Insect did not die, and the huge intelligence network was not cut off, but moved from the ground to the underground.
Gui Guzi asked Sima Xueran to join Ji Jie, which undoubtedly gave him a huge intelligence network. Living in troubled times is full of opportunities, but these opportunities are often fleeting. If you want to be invincible
Not only do we need quick thinking and insightful judgment, but we also need all kinds of accurate information as the basis, otherwise everything will be empty talk.
Ji Jie's eyes changed when she looked at Sima Xueran, which made her feel a little uncomfortable, very uncomfortable.
