The Legend of Honghuang Erlang

In the main tent, Yang Jian was lying on the bed, while Xiao Lan sat aside and read some military messages.

Yang Jian said: "Counsellor Xiao, what do you think of this prime minister's strategy of cutting down merchants?"

"The strategy of dividing the army into three groups is not bad. I am not familiar with the leader of the army, so I will not comment on it. The semaphore made by the prime minister is not bad, but monks all have the method of transmitting voices. Why did the prime minister make such an unnecessary move?"

"Naturally, it is to leave some benefits for ordinary people."

Yang Jian yawned, "I'll let everyone gather tonight and introduce you to them."

"Why introduce me?" Xiao Lan turned to look at Yang Jian over there, lying on the back of the grand master's chair, and asked a little puzzledly, "I just want to solve the mystery of why I gave you the jade hairpin back then. Do you really think that I will follow you to fight and kill?"

Yang Jian was suddenly furious.

"As you please, I will gather with the generals tonight, will you come?"

"This place is a military camp, and a hundred miles away is the Qinglong Pass of the enemy army. The prime minister is really good-natured, so you are not afraid that the other party will take advantage of your carelessness to poison and cast spells to harm this battalion of elite soldiers?"

What Xiao Lan said was reasonable, Yang Jian realized that he was no match for this young master anyway, so he turned over and quietly thought about the previous battle with Xiao Lan.

How could he be abused so badly.

Although he is not good at arranging troops, he has defeated the merchant army many times...

Although Yang Jian pretended not to care, but this confrontation with Xiao Lan made Yang Jian have deep doubts about his military ability.

'Perhaps, I am not good at being a wise general at all, and I am only suitable for charging. '

After thinking about it again, when I defeated Wen Zhong, if Xiao Lan was here, maybe it wouldn't take a lot of trouble, and Wen Zhong could be completely defeated in the first day's military competition...

Forget it, I am not as good as others, so there is nothing to be sad about.

Yang Jian sighed softly, Xiao Lan blinked at the side, and suddenly snickered twice, obviously seeing through Yang Jian's previous pretending to be calm.

"Can the prime minister know how to play chess? If there is nothing wrong with the army, how many games can we discuss?"

As soon as Xiao Lan opened her mouth, Yang Jian suddenly became interested, turned over and sat up, his fighting spirit remained undiminished.

At that moment, Xiao Lan casually took out a jade chessboard and placed it on Yang Jian's writing desk; Yang Jian took a random chair and sat opposite Xiao Lan, each holding black and white.

As soon as Xiao Lan dropped the chess piece, there seemed to be a wave of Dao rhyme pervading, which shocked Yang Jian's spirit.

Know how to play chess?

"The prime minister laughed."

"Young Master Xiao really impresses me," Yang Jian said with a smile, and started to make a move, but after more than ten hands, he was led by the nose inexplicably.

Xiao Lan was neither arrogant nor impetuous, calm and composed, and Bai Zi who was killed by Hei Zi threw away his helmet and armor.

After losing three games in a row, it took only two hours, and Yang Jian was a little speechless.

"Prime Minister, don't be so depressed," Young Master Xiao said with a light smile, "I studied chess when I was five years old, and there was no one in my family who could beat me when I was ten. The Prime Minister is a Taoist talent, so naturally he is all focused on the great way. How could this small way take too much energy?"

"I'm not happy to be comforted by you at all," Yang Jian shook his head, and threw away the chess pieces in his hands, "I have a few seniors who are willing to do the same, and I will introduce you to you some other day to win some spirit treasures and immortal medicines."

Xiao Lan's eyes lit up immediately, "Yes, yes, I think this is feasible."

"You really want to go," Yang Jian was speechless for a while. The uncle he was talking about was naturally a member of the Twelve Golden Immortals, and he was an extraordinary person.

No matter how he thinks about it, Yang Jian doesn't think that Xiao Lan can beat those group of well-rounded people whose age is measured by yuan in chess.

For such a long time, in addition to cultivating the Tao, he only played chess and looked at the scenery. How could he not be strong in chess.

Looking at the sky, Yang Jian said: "Get ready, I'll call a few juniors here, don't let them see that you are a woman."

"Don't worry, I have a treasure to protect me," Xiao Lan shook a necklace on her neck, and then rubbed it lightly on her own neck a few times, her neck became thicker in front of Yang Jian, and there was also a small Adam's apple.

Xiao Lan coughed twice, and her voice turned into a fresh male voice, which made people not feel uncomfortable, and would not think that this was a woman.

"Prime Minister, how are you?"

"Not bad, not bad," Yang Jian nodded in praise, and Xiao Lan smiled proudly.

Calling several juniors to come, Yang Jian looked at Xiao Lan and suddenly asked, "Apart from me and Ao Ji, you don't have any friends?"

Xiao Lan's face darkened immediately, "Will you chat... I have been locked up at home by my grandmother since I was sensible, surrounded by waiters, so there is no chance to make friends. Otherwise, with my charm, hmph!"

Well, poke the heart out.

Yang Jian said with a smile: "I don't know the charm of the young master, but the charm of that Miss Xiao is very powerful."

Xiao Lan avoided Yang Jian's sight, "Prime Minister Meng Lang is gone."

"What Lang Meng, you're just telling the truth."

"Who is Meng Lang?" Laughter came from outside the tent, and Nezha flew into the tent on a hot wheel, landed in front of the two of them, and looked at Xiao Lan.

Nezha had naturally seen Xiao Lan before when he entered the barracks, and he was not too surprised when he knew that this was a friend of the elder brother.

Yang Jian smiled and said nothing, waited for Huang Tianhua and Wei Hu to enter the tent before introducing the three of them:

"This is Mr. Xiao Lan, Mr. Xiao. I will serve as a staff officer under my command in the future. If you have any questions about leading the army to fight, you can ask her for advice."

Xiao Lan stood up, bowed her hands to Nezha and the three of them, and said with a smile, "I would like to ask some masters who explained the teachings to take care of me in the future."

"It's easy to say, easy to say," Huang Tianhua looked at Xiao Lan a few times, feeling a little puzzled.

"General Xiao is too polite." Wei Hu also looked at Xiao Lan for a moment, quite puzzled.

Yang Jian ordered someone to put on a banquet, and the five of them took their seats one by one; Xiao Lan was still a little cautious, Yang Jian and Nezha chatted with each other with a few words, and they began to exchange glasses and chat.

They are not just chatting, they often talk about practice and military affairs.

"General Xiao is here for the first time, I'm laughing at you," Huang Tianhua held up the wine bottle, "I offer a toast to General Xiao."

Xiao Lan also greeted her with 'proudness'.

On the side, Nezha leaned close to Yang Jian's ear and whispered, "Senior brother, she disguises herself as a woman, and what is she doing with her Adam's apple."

Yang Jian suddenly wondered, "How did you find out?"

"My Yin-Yang Sword can distinguish Yin and Yang by itself. Just now, when I got closer to her, I felt the Yang Sword tremble slightly." Nezha blinked, what's the matter? "Brother, why does she want to use a trick to get out?"

Yang Jian smiled and said, "Probably because he seems to be more attentive."

Nezha nodded knowingly, and went to have a drink with Wei Hu.

Just finished speaking here, Huang Tianhua whispered to Yang Jian again, "Senior brother, is this also the military supervisor sent by King Wu? Tsk, His Majesty Wu Wang is really considerate, and sent women one after another to serve senior brother in the army."

Yang Jian was speechless for a while, and sent back a voice: "How did you find out?"

"There's no masculinity about her. Although it doesn't look weird, I've never seen a man who trimmed his eyebrows so carefully..."

"Okay, drink your wine, she is not sent by King Wu, but a fellow Taoist who came to help me hunt merchants."

Yang Jian glanced at Xiao Lan, wanting to persuade her to just go back to women's clothing, and three of the four people present already knew her identity as a woman.

"Come!" Xiao Lan held the wine bottle in both hands and stood up, "Xiao has a toast to all of you! It is really lucky for Xiao to be able to drink at the same table with several rising stars of Taoism! Hahaha!"

This pretended to be bold and unrestrained laughter, how can I hear it in my ears, but there is a slight sense of sadness...

Yang Jian was a little hesitant to speak, but his three juniors showed great face, got up and had a drink with Xiao Lan, and then sat down.

"Cough," Yang Jian decided to bring the topic to a more serious matter, "Are the two generals Li Jing and Deng Chanyu here?"

"The day will come," Wei Hu replied, "They have already started to rectify the northern and southern troops, and General Deng Jiugong is already on his way to Jiameng Pass."

"What good strategies do the juniors have for cutting merchants? Speak freely tonight, just say it as soon as possible."

Hearing that Nezha and Huang Tianhua began to discuss the military situation in a serious manner, Yang Jian finally breathed a sigh of relief for Xiao Lan.

Unexpectedly, Wei Hu suddenly sent a voice to ask: "Senior brother, is this General Xiao's tent going to be placed in the supervisor's place? The supervisor seems a little afraid of living alone. He came to look for the senior brother before, but the senior brother is not here."

Settled in Ji Qianhua's...

Yang Jian suddenly covered his eyes and laughed out loud. Xiao Lan beside him didn't understand why, and several juniors also looked puzzled.

"Go on, go on," Yang Jian waved his hand, signaling that he was fine.

At the banquet, the three vanguard generals each offered their own unique strategies, but Xiao Lan didn't say a word about the battle, but just listened quietly, and didn't say anything to Yang Jianyan about the strategy afterwards.

Obviously Xiao Lan is not very interested in these, just to remember why she gave Yang Jian the hairpin in the first place.

This hairpin has an extraordinary meaning to Xiao Lan, and it will only be given away under one circumstance...

Private life.

...

Half a month after Xiao Lan entered the Zhou camp, a good news came from the army in the south. Lei Zhenzi led the army and defeated the merchant army who went out of Jiameng Pass to crusade.

Five days later, news of victory came from Li Jing in the north, who also defeated the Shang army's crusade, and sent two troops with a total of 300,000 troops to the border of the Great Shang Northland first, causing Chaoge City to panic.

In eight or nine days, it was the day when Suhu Kaicheng of Qinglongguan surrendered. Zhou Jun had already built several food and grass supply lines, and the three-way army was ready to go.

During this process, Xiao Lan only offered two strategies to Yang Jian, and Yang Jian adopted them after careful consideration.

One is to send tens of thousands of elite soldiers with enough food and grass to attack Lintong Pass across the mountains and mountains before capturing Qinglong Pass, disrupting the arrangement of the merchant army and cutting off the military reports ahead.

The second is to drive out of Qinglong Pass the soldiers of the Shang army and the people of the Shang state who did not surrender, strip off their armor, leave their food and grass, and let them rush to the five passes like refugees to break the morale of the Shang army.

Although the second strategy is a bit ruthless, there will inevitably be an unknown number of mortals starving to death by the side of the road, but it can greatly weaken the difficulty of their next attack.

Other than that, Xiao Lan didn't offer advice anymore, and just followed Yang Jian all day long, unable to eat or sleep together.

There were still three days before entering Qinglongguan, Yang Jian was inexplicably restless, always feeling that there was something he hadn't done.

A jade talisman suddenly came across the sky, and Yang Jian suddenly realized after reading it, and returned to Zhou Capital overnight.

Within two days, outside the capital city of Zhou, at the foot of Qishan Mountain, a high platform was built, and it was painted golden, with lines and lines carved on it.

Although the hastily built Dianjiang Terrace is a bit crude, it is adequate.
