Cao Tai also knew that he was no match for Wen Qin in terms of marching and fighting, so Cao Tai only hesitated for a moment before Wen Qin's suggestion, waved his hand, and said to Wen Qin: "Zhong Ruo
, since you have this confidence, then do what you want!"
"Here!" Cao Tai trusted him so much that Wen Qin was somewhat moved. He immediately stood up, knelt down and bowed to Cao Tai, and shouted: "Please don't worry, general! Even if the general is shattered to pieces, he will definitely repay the general.
trust!”
"Yeah!" Cao Tai nodded with satisfaction, and then gave Wen Qin some false support and said: "However, if the Western Qin army really wants to attack Chen County, we just resisted the Western Qin vanguard army.
It’s useless, sooner or later the Western Qin army will set foot in Chen County! Well! Zhong Ruo, you send your best people to Dong County as soon as possible to ask for reinforcements!”
"Here!" Wen Qin shouted again. This was what he meant, so naturally he would not object. He raised his head and glanced at Cao Tai. After making sure that he had no other orders, Wen Qin said: "General! I will retire.
!”
Cao Tai just nodded and said no more, and Wen Qin immediately turned around and left. After walking out of the prefect's mansion, Wen Qin also breathed a long sigh of relief. Now that he has received authorization from Cao Tai, what happens next?
It was much easier to handle. Immediately, Wen Qin took a step forward and was about to walk towards the military camp. At this moment, a shout suddenly came from not far away. Wen Qin turned around and saw that
It turned out to be Wang Ling, who was also the general of Chenjun.
Speaking of this Wang Ling, he was an old man in Cao Wei's army. When Cao Cao and Chen Liu raised his army, Wang Ling followed Cao Cao in the rebellion. He once saved Cao Ren's life on the battlefield and was highly regarded by the Cao family. Ever since Cao Tai was ordered to
After being stationed in Chen County, Wang Ling followed Cao Tai to Chen County. With his seniority in Cao Wei's army, even Cao Tai had to treat him with some courtesy when he saw him. However, Wang Ling did not show favor to him.
Jiao means that in the past few years, Wang Ling has been assisting Cao Tai with all his heart. Even though Cao Tai has handed over most of the power among the generals to Wen Qin, who is junior to him, Wang Ling has not been dissatisfied because of this.
Seeing Wang Ling coming, Wen Qin immediately stopped, walked up to him quickly, gave Wang Ling a fist salute, and said, "I have seen General Wang!"
Wang Ling, however, had a straight face and waved his hands impatiently. Instead of being so polite to Wen Qin, he asked in a deep voice: "General Wen! I heard that an enemy army invaded Chen County? Is it the Western Qin Army?
How many people are there? Have you ever reported it to the Major General?" Ever since he saved Cao Ren on the battlefield, Cao Ren took Wang Ling to serve as his side, so Wang Ling always regarded Cao Ren as a general, and Cao Tai was called the Major General.
.
Wen Qin quickly replied: "General Wang! It is indeed the Western Qin Army that attacked Chen County! However, the number of people who invaded Chen County was not large, only more than 10,000 people! The defenders in Chen County City were enough to withstand the enemy's offensive.
, there’s no need to worry for now!”
"Sure enough, it's these Qin dogs!" After receiving Wen Qin's answer, Wang Ling, who was already in his sixties, shouted angrily, which startled Wen Qin. Only then did Wen Qin remember that the veteran general in front of him was like that.
However, after following Cao Ren for many years, Cao Ren died at the hands of the Western Qin Army not long ago. Wang Lingna was thinking about taking revenge on the Western Qin Army day and night! Sure enough, Wang Ling immediately shouted: "Since these Qin dogs dare to come here to die
! Then how can I be polite to them! General Wen! Please gather your troops quickly, and I will ask the young general to fight! This time I must kill all these Qin dogs! Revenge for the general!" After that, Wang
Ling turned around and rushed towards the prefect's mansion.
"General Wang! General Wang, stay here!" Wang Ling's reaction almost made Wen Qin jump to his feet. He quickly grabbed Wang Ling and tried to persuade him. If they defended the city, Chen Jun's troops were enough to cope with it.
There are more than ten thousand Western Qin troops, but if they go out of the city to fight, the five thousand soldiers and horses in the city will probably not even be left alive!
After all, Wang Ling temporarily agreed with Wen Qin's statement, and finally hummed unwillingly: "General Wen! I believe what you said, and I hope you won't let me down!" After saying that, Wang Ling left angrily.
. And looking at Wang Ling's leaving figure, Wen Qin couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, wiped his forehead with his hand, and just now he broke out in sweat, and shook his head with a wry smile.
"Haha! General Wang is such a sweetheart!" A cold voice suddenly sounded on Wen Qin's back, but Wen Qin was so shocked that cold sweat broke out all over his back! He turned around suddenly and saw that
Look at Zhuge Dan’s seemingly plain smiling face! Seeing Wen Qin, he seemed to be startled by himself, but the smile on Zhuge Dan’s face became thicker and he said with a smile: "General Wen should have met General Cao
Come on! Then you should know that I did not lie to General Wen, and General Cao’s health is indeed not good!"
"Thank you Lord Zhuge for reminding me!" Wen Qin was worthy of being a battlefield general. He quickly calmed down and said to Zhuge Dan in a deep voice: "If Lord Zhuge has nothing else to do, then there will be important things to do.
Resign first!"
Wen Qin clearly didn't want to talk to Zhuge Dan, but Zhuge Dan still looked smiling, not much changed. He just smiled and said: "Where is it! Since General Wen is busy, please go and do it! I don't dare to do that."
"Excuse me for interrupting the general's business! Please!" He said, and made a gesture of invitation to Wen Qin.
Wen Qin, however, didn't even show the slightest courtesy and just rushed towards the military camp with his head held high. After watching Wen Qin leave, the smile on Zhuge Dan's face turned into a cold look again, but this time he
He turned his head and looked in the direction where Wang Ling had left before. He quickly curled up the corner of his mouth and revealed a sneer, then started walking in that direction.
————————————————Dividing Line————————————————————————Three days later, according to the scout’s intelligence, before
The Western Qin army that appeared south of Chen County should have arrived outside the city of Chen County long ago, but after waiting in Chen County for so long, not even half a person could be seen! This made Wen Qin a little anxious.
, it is clear that the Western Qin Army has entered Chen County, how come they can't see the movement?
Wen Qin, who had been watching on the top of the city for a long time and still found nothing, turned his head anxiously and shouted to the soldiers behind him: "Has there been any information from the scouts?"
"Return to the general! No information has been sent yet!" The soldier who had been standing behind Wen Qin immediately replied. The scouts who were originally sent out by Wen Qin to follow the situation of the Western Qin Army in the past few days had no news at all.
It was reported that Wen Qin was completely confused about the movements of the Western Qin Army.
Hearing the soldiers' answers, Wen Qin became more and more anxious. He walked back and forth on the top of the city, and finally shouted to the soldiers: "Send my order! Send another scout team south to investigate! Be sure to find out about the Western Qin Dynasty.
The current whereabouts of the army!"
After Wen Qin gave the order, the soldiers immediately took the order and left. Just as the soldiers got off the city, another person came up quickly. It was Wang Ling, the veteran general of Chen County. As soon as Wang Ling came up
At the top of the city, he walked directly towards Wen Qin. Before he could reach Wen Qin, he shouted loudly: "General Wen! Why haven't you seen any trace of those Qin dogs yet?"
Seeing Wang Ling questioning him like this when he arrived, Wen Qin also had a wry smile on his face. Wang Ling came to see Wen Qin almost every day these days. Wen Qin was able to convince Wang Ling before because Wen Qin assured Wang Ling that Xi
The Qin army will definitely be the first to attack Chenjuncheng. Instead of taking the initiative to attack, it is better to wait here. But now there is no trace of the Western Qin army. Wang Ling, who is only thinking about a battle with the Western Qin army, naturally waits for it.
He was getting impatient. But even so, Wen Qin could not agree to let Wang Ling venture out of the city like this. Wen Qin immediately gave Wang Ling a fist salute and said: "General Wang! We haven't seen the movements of the Western Qin army yet!
But the Western Qin Army has always been full of tricks, and I think this must be a trick used by the Western Qin Army! General, please be patient and wait for a few more days!"
"Wait a minute! You know how to use this sentence to prevaricate me!" Upon hearing Wen Qin's words, Wang Ling quit this time. He waved his hands and shouted: "I don't care! You must give me an accurate answer today."
Letter! How long will it take for those Qin dogs to arrive at Chenjun City?"
"This..." If it had been a few days ago, Wen Qin would have patted his chest and guaranteed that he would be able to see traces of the Western Qin Army in a few days. But after these days of waiting, Wen Qin himself had no confidence, and even
In Wen Qin's heart, he even began to doubt his previous judgment.
When he saw Wen Qin's appearance, Wang Ling couldn't care less. He waved his hand and shouted: "Okay! I understand! Now go and order all the troops! I want to go out of the city to meet the attack in person."
Western Qin Army!"
After saying that, Wang Ling turned around to leave. Wen Qin's face changed drastically and he immediately chased after him, saying to Wang Ling: "General Wang! Don't act impulsively! Our army does not have as many troops as the Western Qin Army. If
With the city wall as a support, we may be able to withstand it! But if we have a head-on confrontation with the Western Qin Army, our army will definitely be defeated!"
If Wen Qin said this to Cao Tai, it would definitely be effective, but the person he is talking to now is Wang Ling, who has been fighting on the battlefield for half his life! Wang Ling, who has been fighting on the battlefield for many years, has a reckless character, and he believes in what he has in his hands.
With a single sword, Wang Ling sneered at Wen Qin's words and snorted: "General Wen! Others are afraid of those Qin dogs, but I, Wang Ling, are not afraid! When I followed the lord and the general to conquer the four directions, there was no time when I faced anything other than a strong force.
Enemy? If everyone is as forward-looking and hesitant as General Wen, how can we have such a huge foundation of Cao Wei? If General Wen is afraid, he can stay in the city, and I will lead the troops to fight Qin Dog! Humph!" After that, Wang Ling said
With a flick of his arm, Wen Qin's hand was thrown away and he walked straight down the city wall.
