Qin Yang did not immediately give an answer to Sun Quan's proposal of "the governor-general of the three armies". But what he did not expect was that not long after Zhang Zhao left, Cao Cao's envoys also arrived one after another.
It turned out that at the line between Jiuli Mountain and Mangdang Mountain, Cao Cao's army took the lead in fighting against Lu Bu's army left to defend Xuzhou. Although Cao Cao's army finally won, Cao Cao discovered something extremely strange during the battle.
This time Cao Cao sent an envoy to Qin Yang for two things. First, to discuss the marching strategy with Qin Yang. Second, to make the same suggestion as Sun Quan, recommending Zhuge Liang to serve as the governor-general of the three armies.
"Mr. Liu, according to you, the reason why Mr. Cao stood still at Jiuli Mountain was because of the suspected reinforcements he saw? I have never heard that Lu Bu was hiding in Xuzhou.
Millions of troops, could it be that the scouts in your army got it wrong?"
Qin Yang stared at Liu Ye with a half-smile, obviously deeply suspicious of what Liu Ye just said.
Facing Qin Yang's doubts and the laughter of the Yellow Turban generals in the camp, Liu Ye complained in his heart. He deeply regretted that he had taken the initiative to send an envoy to Qin Yang. Now, Cao Cao only wants to send an envoy to the Yellow Turbans.
, then Liu Ye became the best choice. But who knew that every time he saw Qin Yang Liu Ye would be a little more wary of this young His Highness the Yellow Turban Prince Ming. Liu Ye even secretly summed it up with a sentence
"I would rather see the King of Hell than Qin Yang..."
But now when Qin Yang asked, Liu Ye did not dare not to answer, so he had to laugh dryly and said: "Return to your highness, how dare I, Liu Ye, talk about such a big matter? After receiving the report from the scout, my lord also acted like your highness, until the lord
After personally seeing the endless military formation, I ordered the army to stop advancing and immediately sent a minister to inform His Highness..."
"A million troops..." Qin Yang couldn't help but ponder when he saw that Liu Ye's expression didn't seem to be hypocritical. In fact, he had already learned about this from Cao Cao's letter. But Qin Yang simply didn't believe that Lu Bu would have a million troops to come to his aid.
Xuzhou believed from the beginning that Cao Cao was using an excuse to delay his march to preserve his strength. However, this excuse was a bit too sensational.
But now that he saw the certainty of Liu Ye's words, he couldn't help but feel a little shaken in his original determination. After all, although Lu Bu captured Shouchun with killings all the way, Yuan Shu's centipede insects were still alive, so there should be some surrendered troops under his command. In this way
First of all, it should be possible for Lu Bu's army plus these surrendered troops to raise five to six million yuan...
However, if Lu Bu concentrated all his troops and returned to Xuzhou, why would he risk Chen Gong's life to capture Shouchun? This matter puzzled Qin Yang.
Everyone in the golden tent saw Qin Yang deep in thought. They couldn't help but suddenly became quiet. It was not because they, like Qin Yang, began to believe what Liu Ye said, but if Qin Yang believed what Liu Ye said, I'm afraid what would happen next
The strategic deployment will be greatly changed. Then the original plan of waiting to attack Shouchun after joining forces with Cao Cao's army will be directly changed.
"Military advisor, what do you think about this?" After a moment, Qin Yang's eyes suddenly fell on Guo Jia, who was also silent. The reason why he asked Guo Jia was because he found that there was an extremely solemn look on Guo Jia's face.
color.
When Qin Yang asked, Guo Jia pondered for a moment and said seriously: "Your Highness, if what Mr. Liu Ye said is true, it is not impossible...but there are some things that I need to confirm again..."
"Military advisor, did you not sleep well last night or did you drink too much? How could Lu Bu have an army of millions? This is obviously Cao Cao's excuse for not wanting to send troops..." Hearing Guo Jia say this, Zhang Yan, who was sitting aside, finally endured
He couldn't help but speak. He didn't believe that a million-strong army came back to support Xuzhou, but Qin Yang didn't speak and he didn't dare to say anything. Now that Guo Jia said this, he finally couldn't bear it anymore and glared at Liu Ye.
Cold snort.
When Liu Ye saw Zhang Yan calling Cao Cao by his name in front of him, he couldn't help but feel anxious and was about to retort. Unexpectedly, Qin Yang opened his mouth first and shouted coldly: "Shut up! Mr. Cao belongs to our Yellow Turban Army."
Allies, please don't be rude. Let the military advisor finish his words."
Seeing Qin Yang's solemn expression, Zhang Yan immediately shut up and said nothing. Qin Yang turned to look at Guo Jia and said, "Military advisor, what exactly do you want to confirm?"
Guo Jia pondered and said: "Reporting to your highness, I have been studying the Dunjia Heavenly Book for many years, and I know that some of the methods in the Heavenly Book are unpredictable, even beyond the imagination of mortals like us. If I can see the army rushing to help, I will definitely do it.
You can see something in it..."
"Commander Guo's words are wrong." It was Huang Zhong who spoke this time. Huang Zhong didn't believe what Liu Ye said. When he saw what Guo Jia said, he couldn't help questioning: "I guess there are many capable people under Master Cao's command.
Sir, as far as I know, Lord Sima Yi is also a practitioner of the Dunjia Heavenly Book. Couldn’t Lord Sima see the strangeness in this?"
Huang Zhong's words were meant to refute Guo Jia, but in fact they were insinuating that Cao Cao's excuse was too lame. Thinking about it, even if this situation might happen, but Guo Jia could see it, how could he also practice it?
Couldn't Sima Yi, the Dunjia Heavenly Book, see it? Most of the generals in the tent were sensible people. After hearing Huang Zhong's words, they couldn't help but sneer in low voices and glance at Liu Ye, who had a gloomy expression.
"General Huang only knows one thing but not the other..." The next person to speak was Guo Jia. He directly ignored the profound meaning of Huang Zhong's words and said solemnly: "Although Mr. Sima also practices the Dunjia Heavenly Book, but
Because the scrolls he practices are different, they are slightly different from those below. As far as I know, Mr. Sima is practicing the human scroll. Although he does not know the mystery of the human scroll, Guo Jia is sure that it is the same as the human scroll.
The ghost scrolls below will definitely be completely different."
"Ghost Juan..." When Qin Yang heard Guo Jia mention this word, he couldn't help but suddenly remembered something, and asked hurriedly: "Strategic Advisor, do you think that the million-strong army mobilized by Lu Bu is..."
At this moment, many Yellow Turban generals in the tent also suddenly thought that after Guo Jia practiced the Dunjia Heavenly Book and Ghost Scroll, he could summon "corpse soldiers" to assist in the battle. In Xiangcheng, Qin Yang relied on Guo Jia's "corpse soldiers"
"Only can he successfully force General He Jin to cut off the dragon flag, thus turning the tide in a critical moment and winning the Battle of Xiangcheng.
Could it be that Guo Jia thought that all the millions of troops that Cao Cao said rushed to Xuzhou's aid were "corpse soldiers"?! No matter how you put it, this is too unbelievable! Thinking of this, the generals couldn't help but focus their attention.
Guo Jia is looking forward to further explanation from Guo Jia.
Under the gaze of everyone, Guo Jia slowly shook his head and said: "Reporting to Your Highness, as far as I know, this technique of summoning corpse soldiers can only be performed by ghost scroll practitioners, and no matter how powerful it is,
It is impossible for a spell master to summon millions of corpse soldiers to fight in an instant..."
"What do you mean?" Qin Yang said frustrated.
"Don't worry, Your Highness. I remember that there was a lost spell mentioned in the Book of Heaven. This spell is very sinister. It uses the souls of the innocent people who have just died as sacrifices. After the sacrifice, these innocent souls will become puppets.
In this way, these puppets can obey the orders of their masters and become warriors like corpse soldiers fighting on the battlefield." Guo Jia's face was extremely solemn.
After hearing this, Qin Yang was shocked and lost his voice: "Are you saying that these millions of reinforcements are all puppets?!"
Guo Jia nodded and said: "To be precise, it should be called Yin soldiers. However, the conditions for the appearance of these Yin soldiers are extremely harsh. Not only do these creatures have to be sacrificed immediately after dying almost at the same time, but they must also be sacrificed by a heavenly book holder.
Someone’s soul was used as a sacrifice. According to the Book of Heaven, a similar thing happened in ancient times. At that time, a natural disaster came to the earth, and the entire city with a radius of thousands of miles was instantly reduced to ruins, and nearly a million people
He died almost instantly. Among the people who lost their lives was a holder of the Book of Heaven. Therefore, many of the people who came to the rescue at that time had seen the spectacle of Yin soldiers passing by, but by chance, they met the conditions for sacrifice.
, but there was no one who presided over the sacrifice, so these passing Yin soldiers were all guided by heaven and fell into reincarnation again, so that no more terrifying situation happened. This incident has been slightly recorded in some ancient books, but
They are all regarded as legends by the world. I didn’t expect that this matter would appear today. It’s really unbelievable..."
"The Yin soldiers are passing by..." Qin Yang couldn't help but feel the hairs on his body standing on end when he heard what Guo Jia said. Qin Yang happened to have heard some of the things Guo Jia said in ancient times when he came here.
Rumors. And it was only a few decades away from Qin Yang's era. The two are so amazingly similar, the same natural disaster, the same Yin soldiers passing by...
Qin Yang did not dare to think about it anymore. He calmed himself down and said, "Military advisor, are you sure that the reinforcements that appeared in Xuzhou are Yin soldiers?!"
Guo Jia nodded, "Wei Chen has just said that. Although he did not see those reinforcements, Wei Chen is 70% sure that these reinforcements are Yin soldiers. However, I really can't figure it out, even if Lu Bu is
A strong God of War with kingly energy probably doesn’t have the strength to control so many Yin soldiers... So now I dare not make any judgments, maybe there is something else fishy in this..."
Qin Yang smiled bitterly when he heard this and murmured: "Now Lu Bu is more than just a god of war? If we talk about strength, I'm afraid there is no one more powerful than Lu Bu in the world..."
Qin Yang didn't speak loudly to himself, and all the generals in the tent were immersed in what Guo Jia said, so most of them didn't hear Qin Yang's words.
Suddenly, Liu Ye broke the silence in the tent with a sudden exclamation, "Your Highness, please forgive me for being rude. I will go back to Jiuli Mountain to report this matter to my lord! I won't hide it from Your Highness.
Just before coming down here, my lord has already begun to plan a strategy to defeat the enemy. If the lord does not know the true strength of the enemy's army and advances rashly, I am afraid that our army will be in danger! Please retreat!"
Liu Ye's words immediately woke up all the generals in the camp. If Guo Jia's words are true, the number of people slaughtered in the entire Shouchun City is definitely more than a million! That means that now in Shouchun City, Lu Bu not only has nearly three
A hundred thousand troops, and nearly a million Yin soldiers! When I thought of this, there was a commotion in the entire tent.
Qin Yang looked at Liu Ye's hurried away figure and couldn't help but take a deep breath. He didn't expect that things would develop to this point, but now is not the time to be afraid!
"Generals, listen to the order! The whole army is on alert and ready for war! Also contact Sun Quan's Jiangdong Army and tell him the current situation. From today on, our Yellow Turban Army has entered a state of special war preparation. No one can act rashly without my order!"
