Chapter 29 Outsmarting Puyang (1)

(Please order first)

Liu Yixuan took paper and pen and planned to write a letter to let the Song army outside the city retreat obediently. Wanyan and the generals guarding the city did not know what Liu Yixuan had, so he dared to boast about it and use a letter to stop the enemy country from fighting.

Everyone gathered up. Seeing Liu Yixuan pondering for a moment, she picked up her pen and wrote on the paper. After a moment, Liu Yixuan blew the ink traces with her mouth, then handed the letter to Wanyan brothers and sisters, and smiled and said, "Two, how do you think I'm writing this intimidation letter? If Song Jun saw my letter, he would definitely withdraw his troops obediently!"

The Wanyan brothers and sisters were half-believing and half-doubted about Liu Yixuan, so they hurriedly took the letter and took a look. It turned out that Liu Yixuan wrote a poem on the paper. Wanyan Hong took the letter and read it softly:

"The wealthy master is virtuous and superior to heaven, and Ye Sihuang's grace has not been asleep for a long time.

There were thousands of soldiers stationed in the East City, and the food and grass were accumulated in front of the gate.

Fire leveraged the wind to burn Han territory, and raised troops to destroy the Central Plains.

The city walls are as solid as iron, and the destruction is only in the middle of chatting and laughing!”

After reading the letter, the brother and sister looked at each other, wondering what Liu Yixuan meant. Wanyan Xueer asked, "Hey, little scholar, what are you talking about in this letter? Why do you say that the Song army will withdraw after reading it?"

Liu Yixuan smiled and said, "Master Princess, you can't even understand this. It seems that we have to learn the culture of our Central Plains! In my letter, the emperor of the Jin Kingdom is so kind that the emperor is strong, the soldiers and horses are strong, and the food and grass are abundant. We are about to raise an army to attack the Central Plains. Defeating them is just a matter of talking and laughing!"

After hearing this, Wanyan Xueer understood the meaning of the letter. It turned out that Liu Yixuan was bragging about himself in the letter, hoping to use this to scare the Song army away. "This is really ridiculous. If you brag about it in the letter, those Song army will be scared by you? Do you think they are all three-year-old children?"

Liu Yixuan smiled and said, "Can you scare them away? This is my business. The little prince has made a bet for me just now, so I am naturally sure to withdraw my troops." He said to Wanyan Hong again, "Young prince, please order the city gate to open. I will leave the city and hand the letter to the Song army generals under the city."

Although Wanyan Hong was suspicious of Liu Yixuan's statement, there was no better way at this time. If Liu Yixuan was allowed to entangle with the Song army outside the city, it would be delayed for a while. He had sent a letter of help from Cizhou and Handan. As long as it could be delayed for a day or two, he could leave the city and break the enemy as soon as the reinforcements arrived. Today, he happened to use this little scholar to pretend to negotiate with the Song people, but in fact he was delaying secretly, waiting for the arrival of reinforcements.

"Okay, I will believe you once! Lead him a horse, and then send three hundred crossbowmen to follow him and let him send a letter to Song Jun!" said Wanyan Hong.

"Okay, I'll thank the general!" Liu Yixuan was unhappy when he saw Wanyan Hong agreeing to his request and implementing his plan to break the enemy in his heart. The Song army outside the door was all his friends, so there would be no danger when he went out to deliver the letter. As long as he didn't act too badly, these Jin people probably wouldn't see any flaws.

Just as Liu Yixuan turned around and left, Wanyan Xueer heard him say to his brother: "Brother, let me go out of the city with Liu Dalang!"

Wanyan Hong was puzzled and asked, "Why do you want to leave the city?"

Wanyan Xueer said, "This Liu Dalang is a scholar, and he is powerless. My younger sister can also protect him. Besides..." Wanyan Xueer deliberately lowered her tone and murmured in his brother's ear: "Besides, he is still a Song Dynasty man. If he takes the opportunity to leave the city and betray us in front of the Song army, wouldn't that be unfavorable to us? If a younger sister follows him, if he turns against the enemy at the time of the battle, the younger sister will shoot him to death with an arrow!"

Wanyan Hong felt that his sister was right, so he agreed to Xueer's request and said, "Then send another 500 crossbowmen to follow me for my brother. Sister, please be more careful and must not fight with General Song!"

Seeing Wanyan Xueer following, Liu Yixuan was naturally unwilling to thank him, so he quickly pushed and said, "Young Master, don't need to follow him, you will be careful, you really don't need to!"

"Where did you come from so much nonsense? Come out with me! If you can't retreat from this group of Song troops, you will settle the score with you when you come back!" As he said that, he pulled Liu Yixuan down the city tower.

Wanyan Xueer was dressed neatly, and asked someone to bring her jade lion and white horse. She also prepared horses for Liu Yixuan, and ordered eight hundred crossbowmen. She brought two hundred infantry under her, so she let someone put down the suspension bridge and rushed out of the city gate.

Hu Yanqing outside the door cursed for a long time, and was already dry-mouthed. When he saw the city gate open, a group of people emerged, he immediately became excited. "Grandma, someone finally dared to come out!"

Hu Yanqing, Yuan Mengqi and Wang Zichun stood at the horse and watched from a distance, but saw a female general coming out of the city. The female general was born with: willow eyebrows, almond eyes, jade skin; wearing a red battle robe, purple tassels and golden crown; a set of lock armor on the upper body, a pair of brocade suede boots under her feet, two steel knives in her hands shining coldly, and a white horse roaring under her crotch. It's true: The beautiful Eye is also a hero, and how can a woman be willing to give in to her beards!

When the Song army soldiers saw the troops rushing out of the city gate, they immediately set up their formation and planned to compete with the female general. Wanyan Xueer led the team to the Song army a hundred steps away, lined up the crossbowmen in a row, and also arranged the formation to face each other. Just as Wanyan Xueer set up the formation, Liu Yixuan rode the horse and rushed to the front. It turned out that Wanyan Xueer's mount was good at running, and the Jin soldiers rushed out fiercely, so he did not catch up with him.

Liu Yixuan walked from the formation to the front of the formation, but Wang Zichun recognized it at a glance. He hurriedly said to Teacher Yuan and Hu Yanqing beside him: "Look, isn't that Mr. Liu?"

Teacher Yuan looked closely and found that it was Liu Yixuan, and said, "That's right, it's him, how could he be with the female general of the Jin Kingdom?"

Hu Yanqing also recognized Liu Yixuan. Seeing that he was talking to the female general of the Jin Kingdom immediately, he said, "It's bad. This young master of the Liu family must have defected to these Jin people. Today he is coming to fight against us!"

Wang Zichun said: "How is it possible? Brother Liu has always been loyal to the Song Dynasty. How could he surrender to the Jin people? In my opinion, he sneaked into the Jin people and pretended to work hard for the Jin people."

Hu Yanqing said: "It's hard to say. Knowing people and faces but not the heart. It's only been a few days since he entered Puyang City? If he hadn't defected to the Jin Man, how could the Jin Man let him come out to fight!"

Wang Zichun said: "You!... Brother Liu and I have been playing together since childhood. He is definitely not that kind of person!"

When Teacher Yuan saw the two of them quarreling, he quickly advised: "Okay, okay, don't quarrel. You two don't know what the purpose of the visitor is. When I ask him, I will ask him!" Then he came out to the formation and asked: "Who will be here?"

Wanyan Xueer wanted to answer, but she asked Liu Yixuan to hold her back and said to her: "Princess Princess, let me talk back and forth!" Then she took the initiative to say to Teacher Yuan: "I am the little clerk under the tent of the little prince of Zhuozhou, Jin Dynasty. I have a letter in my hand, and I want to present it to your marshal. I have no other intentions. Please send someone to pick it up!"

Hu Yanqing and the other two looked at each other after hearing Liu Yixuan's words, not knowing what he meant. Hu Yanqing asked Wang Zichun: "What did he say just now? There is a letter to be handed over to Zong Shuai. What does he mean? Prince Wang, do you have any code words before?"

Wang Zichun said: "Code words? There are no code words? That day we stole the enemy ship, and Brother Liu made it easier for me to part with him on the shore. He said that he would go to Puyang City to inquire about military information first. I guess he had found out some news and wrote it in the letter. Just let someone go and get it!"

Hu Yanqing said: "It's not that simple. The Jin people are not fools. Will they let him write military information in letters? I guess this is a trick for the Jin people!"

Prince Chun said: "What do you think you should do?"

Hu Yanqing scratched his beard, rolled his eyes, and shouted to the Jin camp: "Since you want to deliver the letter, just send it to yourself. Yes, let that little clerk deliver it to him in person! We will not accept any of the others' gifts!"

Prince Chun was puzzled and asked, "What does the general mean?"

Hu Yanqing smiled and said, "Let's trick Mr. Liu into the front of the formation. We'll just ask clearly. Let's not think about it, right?"

When Liu Yixuan heard Hu Yanqing asks him to deliver the letter, he knows what they think. He turns around and says to Wanyan Xueer, "Princess, they ask me to send the letter in person, so I will deliver it..." As he said that, he was about to slap the horse out of the battle.

"No! You can't send a letter. When this group of Song soldiers saw that you were a traitor to the Song people, they would definitely not spare you. They were there muttering for a long time, and there must be some conspiracy!" Wanyan Xueer stopped Liu Yixuan and said.

"What conspiracy can there be? Don't think too much!" Liu Yixuan said.

Wanyan Xueer was not willing to let Liu Yixuan deliver the letter. Although she had not been with this white-faced young scholar for a long time, she also loved him more or less. At least she was unwilling to let him die in vain, and she would not let Liu Yixuan deliver the letter to the enemy in person. So she said to Liu Yixuan: "Take the letter over, I tie it to the arrow and shoot it over!"

"This...can this work? I asked me to deliver it myself..."

"Why can't it be? Isn't it just a letter? Where did so many troubles come?" As he said that, he snatched the letter from Liu Yixuan's hand, turned around and asked the crossbowman for a bow and arrow, tied the letter to the arrow with a hemp rope, and then picked the bow and took the arrow immediately. With a "swoosh", the arrow flew straight to the Song army camp.

When Hu Yanqing and the other two saw someone shooting arrows on the opposite side, they hurriedly turned sideways to dodge. Several soldiers holding shields hurriedly came up to block them. In fact, this arrow only used five points of Wanyan Xueer's strength to fly to the Song army formation and was already "the last of the strength" and landed five or six steps away from the formation.

Hu Yanqing asked someone to retrieve the arrows, untied the hemp rope, and took out the letters. However, Liu Yixuan shouted from the opposite side: "Three generals, please hand over the letter to your marshal, and tell your marshal that Puyang City is as solid as a soil, and it is simply a delusion to attack him. I advise him to stop the army as soon as possible so as not to meet each other and harm the lives of the soldiers under the tent! You all go back!"

After hearing Liu Yixuan's shouting, the three of them had to look at each other. "Your Majesty, what medicine did you buy from the gourd? Why? Will you stop fighting in Puyang City? Then won't we come here for nothing?"

Wang Zichun said: "I don't know either. Brother Liu asked us to hand over the letter to the marshal. Then send someone to send the letter to the camp. Everything will be decided by the marshal!"

Hu Yanqing had no choice but to call the commander and ask him to send the letter to the camp and hand it over to Marshal Zongze.

When Wanyan Xueer saw that Song Jun received the letter, she had no intention of retreating. She had long been hopeless for Liu Yixuan and said, "Little scholar, I said your move is not effective, you don't believe it yet! If you want to scare Song Jun away with a letter, you underestimate them too much! You also bet with my brother to see how you end this time. If my brother cuts down your head, I won't help you!"

After hearing this, Liu Yixuan was also a little worried. What if Zong Ze really couldn't see his intention, wouldn't he have done it? I was ridiculed by their brothers and sisters for a small matter. If Song Jun really wanted to attack Puyang, wouldn't he have wasted all his efforts? Thinking of this, he felt a little scared and his face suddenly became gloomy.

Wanyan Xueer saw Liu Yixuan's face changed in fear, and quickly smiled and said, "Okay, okay, look at you so scared! I was talking to you just now. If my brother really chopped off your head, I will definitely plead for you. Don't be afraid! I won't let you die so easily, don't worry!"

Just as the two were talking, they heard the golden bell ringing in the opposite Song army camp. The messenger ordered the soldiers to come to the front of the formation and replied to Hu Yanqing: "The Marshal has an order, and the Jin Dynasty will be called to withdraw the troops!"

When the Song army received the order, Hulala withdrew its troops back to the camp. When the Jin soldiers saw the Song army retreat, they cheered and were very excited. After all, why did the veteran General Zongze order the withdrawal of troops? Can the Song army successfully capture Puyang? All in the following text!
