The Jagged Emperor of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 1089
In the end, Hu Sheng broke down two horses, rode the third horse back to Araki Town, and reported the information to the scout captain.However, none of his dozen comrades came back alive in the end.

Later, when Ma Dai found out about this incident, he was very moved. He not only sent people to search for the bodies of most of them, but also doubled the pension.

Hu Sheng was later promoted to be a scout corporal, the youngest corporal in the army.

These are all later stories.

After the captain of the scout got the information sent back by the escort, he couldn't help but turn pale with shock, and ordered someone to appease Hu Sheng, while he himself rushed to the camp to meet Meng Xi, and reported the latest information to him.

In Meng Xi's heart, he was also quite surprised that the troops from Hexi Xianbei would actually design an ambush in Lifeng Valley, or that they actually hid a group of troops secretly.

Meng Xi's mind has always been very delicate, and he began to speculate on the intentions of the Xianbei army.

They can obviously participate in the blocking battle when the bald tugao crossed the river against the Han army.But the problem is that they didn't show up at all at the time, and even when the bald soil high troops were defeated, they didn't come forward to rescue them at all, and sat and watched the bald soil high troops almost perished.

While thinking, Meng Xi strode towards Ma Dai's big tent.

On the way, Meng Xi met Gai Meng who was going to meet Ma Dai.Seeing Meng Xi bowing his head and walking quickly, Gai Meng didn't stop to greet him, knowing that he didn't see him.

Gai Meng stopped Meng Xi and asked, "General Meng, what are you thinking so deeply that I didn't even see it."

Seeing that it was Gai Meng who stopped him, Meng Xi smiled apologetically, bowed to Gai Meng and said, "General Gai, the scout team just sent the latest information to the last general, so I am going to report to General Ma Dai .”

Meng Xi's words immediately aroused Gai Meng's strong interest, and he quickly grabbed Meng Xi's arm and asked, "What's the latest information, hurry up and reveal it first."

Intelligence is the only basis for military commanders to judge the direction of the war. Of course, Meng Xi can understand the urgency of Gai Meng. He is the highest military commander who is responsible for all aspects of work.

Meng Xi smiled, then looked at Gai Meng's hand holding his arm, and said, "General Gai, don't be so excited, this latest information was obtained with the lives of ten scouts. If you are interested If so, you might as well go to see General Ma Dai with the last general, and then you will know. You know, this kind of information cannot be leaked casually, but must be reported to the highest military commander first. .”

Gai Meng chuckled and said in a low voice: "Although the situation is indeed true, but we two can talk while walking, as long as you know and I know, who will know?"

Meng Xi walked away, but the look on his face told Gai Meng that he would not leak the information to him in advance now.

It is not a matter of a day or two for Gai Meng to get along with Meng Xi. He knows that he is very easy-going and humble in dealing with people, so even if he is rejected, he is still very confident in his heart. Meng Xi's mouth told him to tell him the latest information.

In fact, Gai Meng has another thought in his mind, that is, even if Meng Xi is unwilling to tell him in advance, he actually has nothing to lose.I was going to see General Ma Dai, and then we will listen to Meng Xi's report together.

So, along the way, Gai Meng kept persuading and even took tentative methods. In the end, Meng Xi really couldn't stand Gai Meng's emotional offensive, which made him feel too psychologically burdened, so he sent the scout team to investigate. When he came back, he told Gai Meng everything about the hidden army of Xianbei in Lifeng Valley.

Then, Meng Xi warned Gai Meng at the end, saying: "General Gai, although this news is not afraid of being leaked out, after all, it should be information that will soon become invalid."

Gai Meng was surprised by Meng Xi's information at first, and almost couldn't help exclaiming, but now hearing Meng Xi's words, he couldn't help asking: "What kind of information will soon expire? a statement."

Meng Xi explained: "Since the whereabouts of the scouts under the last general's command have been discovered by the Xianbei people, of course the Xianbei people know that their hiding place has been discovered by our army. Then will they continue to maintain the original plan foolishly?" , will launch a surprise attack on our army within these two days, I guess they must have launched a night attack on our army in Araki Town."

Gai Meng frowned and asked, "Night Attack, do you have any basis for your judgment?"

Meng Xi nodded and said, "Of course. General Gai, what is the reason why our army is now stationed in Araki Town to rest?"

Gai Meng said: "Of course it can't be because of the continuous fighting. In fact, among all the troops, only my cavalry has just fought a battle. Everyone has rested for a month on the east bank of the Yellow River. Now we are in Araki Town. It is necessary to build a not-so-solid battle line, and at the same time wait for the shortage of food and grass in Araki Town to be delivered, and use this Araki Town as a strategic place to stock up on food and grass."

Seeing that Gai Meng's intentions for the army were very clear, Meng Xi said, "Exactly. For a long time, there have been news from the general's side that the bald-haired Shoutian from Hexi Xianbei has been coveting our army's logistics. I want to use all kinds of supplies to survive this cold winter."

Gai Meng couldn't help laughing and said, "This bald-haired Shoutian really made a good idea!"

"Therefore, the reason why they fought with us is not complicated. They don't want to wipe out all the horses in our army in one fell swoop, but as long as they defeat our army and force our army back to Yongliang territory, they captured Sufficient supplies are enough. And if our army is defeated, because it is still using troops in the distant Linyi, it is obviously impossible for His Majesty to withstand the opposition to continue to use troops against Hexi Xianbei. At that time, Hexi Xianbei will become a part of this war. biggest winner."

Gai Meng nodded and said, "Hearing your analysis, it really makes sense. The Xianbei people got the battle victory they wanted in their hearts, and at the same time got the supplies they wanted. All the requirements were met. It is indeed the biggest winner.”

At this time, Gai Meng suddenly thought of something, and said to Meng Xi: "General Meng, I suddenly realized that there is something important to do. You should go see General Ma Dai by yourself."

Saying that, Gai turned around and left, no, it should be said that it is more appropriate to turn around and run.

Watching Gai Meng leave suddenly, Meng Xi looked very astonished, not knowing what the hell Gai Meng was doing now, and wanted to call Gai Meng to stop him, but Gai Meng had already run away.

Meng Xi had no choice but to go see Ma Dai by herself.

On the way Gai ran back, he happened to meet Igenda who had been fighting with him recently.

It was really rare for Yijianda to see Gai Meng in a hurry, after all, these Han generals have always been relatively stable.

Yijianda couldn't help shouting: "Hey, Lao Gai, why are you in such a hurry, you want to reincarnate!"

When Yijianda yelled at him like this, Gai Meng immediately stopped in his tracks, and scolded: "You bastard, don't you know the difference between superior and inferior? My official title is several levels higher than yours anyway!"

Yijian Da curled his lips and asked, "What's the matter, you're so surprised."

Gai Meng thought for a while and said, "I'll tell you when you come here."

Igenda really walked over.

Gai Meng told Yijianda the latest information he heard from Meng Xi.

Yijianda was about to run to Ma Dai's tent immediately, but Gai Meng grabbed him and asked Yijianda, "Why are you going?"

Yijian Da said anxiously: "Of course I'm going to ask General Ma Dai for orders."

Gai scolded fiercely: "Please order your head! You go to prepare your troops immediately, and go to Lifeng Valley with me. If you don't take such credit, who will you give it to!"

Yijianda was taken aback when he heard that, but saw Gai Meng running away again, and couldn't help shouting loudly to Gai Meng's back: "General Gai, you are not allowed to get ahead of me this time, let's go together !"

Yijianda actually didn't call Gai Meng Lao Gai anymore.

Gai Meng waved his hands behind while running.
