Just when Cheng Yaojin was about to send troops, he saw a group of fast horses rushing into the camp.
The soldiers who were originally preparing to block the camp at the entrance of the camp saw the man on horseback carrying a pennant. They immediately opened the gate of the camp, pushed aside the obstructions, and let him in.
That flag is not an ordinary thing. It represents the command of the commander-in-chief. Seeing the flag is like seeing the commander-in-chief. Everything must be unimpeded and cannot be blocked.
This is a military rule. How dare they violate it? If they stop it, they will be severely punished afterwards.
The messenger came to Cheng Yaojin's tent unimpeded and dismounted. He knelt down on one knee outside the tent and shouted loudly: "Pass the commander-in-chief's order!"
Cheng Yaojin, who was sitting in the Chinese army's tent, was still discussing the attack with his men. When he heard the words outside the tent, he stood up and walked out.
When the messenger saw Cheng Yaojin coming out, he immediately shouted again: "General Cheng, the commander-in-chief has ordered us to prepare the army to eat. The commander-in-chief has arrived!"
"The commander-in-chief is here?" Cheng Yaojin said in surprise with his eyes wide open.
According to his calculations, even if Luo Zhang arrived, it would only take him half a night. This was still the result of rushing all the way. But now, the messenger actually told him that Luo Zhang was coming. How could this not surprise him?
Could it be that Luo Zhang flew here with his army on wings?
This is a bit outrageous!
"How could the commander arrive so quickly?" Cheng Yaojin asked the question in his mind.
"The army stayed up all night and traveled all night, and now they are here!" the messenger said concisely.
"Never sleep? Traveling all night?" Cheng Yaojin couldn't help but take a breath, not to mention him, everyone behind him was stunned on the spot.
There was only one word in their minds, crazy. Luo Zhang was crazy to save Chengdu County.
It's just that they don't understand why Luo Zhang did this. According to the news, Chengdu County can hold on for three days no matter what. There is no need for the army to do this.
They couldn't understand it, but Cheng Yaojin understood it, patted his forehead and said: "No, Chengdu County is probably in danger!"
"Come here, has there been any new news from Chengdu County since yesterday?" Cheng Yaojin glanced around and asked.
"Excuse me, sir, there is no news!"
As soon as these words came out, Cheng Yaojin's face suddenly darkened. As a man who had experienced countless battles, how could he not see the key point?
If they weren't surrounded so tightly and in such a hurry, how could the news not be spread? At least the carrier pigeons can carry the message, but there are not even carrier pigeons. This shows that Changsun Wuji is already on guard, fearing that the carrier pigeons will be shot down if they fly out of Chengdu County.
In addition, he did not break through the obstruction yesterday, which clearly shows that Changsun Wuji gave a death order and must stop the reinforcements at all costs. If this is not the critical moment of the siege, what is it?
It's just that he didn't think of it for a moment, but he suddenly woke up after hearing Luo Zhang's urgent march without sleep all day and night.
Cursing secretly that he was confused, he immediately asked the ordering soldiers to go down to rest, and he also ordered the cook to bury the pot and make rice to welcome the arrival of the army.
However, he did not stop, but followed the original plan, summoned an army, and launched an attack on the army blocking the place.
After all, he had 10,000 soldiers to attack in a detour.
Although I don’t know what the situation is, the fact that so much time has passed and there is still no news and no return, which means that it is probably successful.
He must go to meet them and attack the enemies who are blocking him from the front and back. If the sneak attack is successful, I am afraid that Luo Zhang will be able to pass smoothly after arriving, and he will not be embarrassed in front of Luo Zhang.
Luo Zhang was indeed about to arrive, but before he arrived, Cheng Yaojin had already rushed out of the camp.
On an ancient winding mountain road, a group of people were walking carefully around the ancient road like centipedes.
The ancient road has a history of hundreds of years, and few people pass by it. Even locals, few people know about it.
Only some herbalists who collect herbs all year round know this path through word of mouth.
However, they didn't come much. After all, the plank road here was in disrepair. It was better to take the road blocked by Changsun Wuji than to take the road blocked by Changsun Wuji. There was no danger there, it just took a little more time, but it was safer.
