Chapter 84
"Your Majesty, this matter is not appropriate. Feng Ge got straight to the point.
Li Yunyang saw that she was coming, his face softened a little, and asked, "What's wrong?"
"King Fang Caining has a point, if the Praetorian Guards are withdrawn, in case the Northern Yan people sneak attack, the entire king will no longer be able to hold it. Feng Ge's voice was like a silver bell, but the truth he said made his heart palpitate.
The fall of the royal capital also means that the Great Xia Kingdom has been exhausted, no matter how willful Li Yunyang is, he does not dare to bet with the lives of his ancestors and ancestors.
"But, just watching them die?" Li Yunyang's tone had softened, still unwilling, "Although I also know that it is not cost-effective to gamble the lives of thousands of people in exchange for those thirty lives, how can lives be measured in this way. ”
Feng Ge sighed lightly in his heart, having such a benevolent person as the emperor, when there was nothing to do, for the people of Western Xia, it could be called a blessing for all generations, but in this extraordinary period, such an idea would only bring huge sacrifices, Taifu once taught her: "Compassion is not in charge of soldiers, righteousness is not in charge of wealth." At that time, she only knew the literal meaning, and she still didn't understand it in her heart, but now she really understands the true meaning of these eight words.
"Where are the troops of Great Xia, why did they let the Northern Yan people go straight into the royal city?" this was the point that Feng Ge couldn't understand the most.
Speaking of the number of troops, Li Yunyang bowed his head and said nothing, the number of troops in Great Xia was originally very small, so they were only stationed on the border.
The Tangut people have always believed that as long as the two countries of Yan and Heng exist, as long as they still don't like each other, they will definitely not draw their hands against them. Then there is no need to raise so many troops, waste money, waste energy, it is better to develop a few more weapons when you have time, so that Yan Guo and Heng Guo are reluctant to harm Xia Guo, let alone Xia Guo.
The people also think the same way, being a soldier is hard, tired and poor, it is better to do business, make a fortune and make money quickly, run a few times to the border, you can build three big tiled houses, marry a beautiful daughter-in-law, and live comfortably for a lifetime.
They never thought that either the Yan Kingdom or the Heng Kingdom would attack them, the status of their country was so important, whether it was Yan or Heng, if they looked at the other family and wanted to annex Xia, they would definitely send troops to protect the Great Xia Kingdom, and it was impossible to sit idly by.
Tonight, the people of Beiyan actually smashed the royal city without any warning. There is a question in everyone's heart: why did the Beiyan people come so quickly.
Jing Zhaoyin has already replied: "Every time the Northern Yan delegation comes, it will bring a large number of people and horses, and the first few times, they are also stationed outside the city, so this time, although they have seen it, they are also accustomed to it. The purpose of the Northern Yan delegation this time was to marry, so the scouts mistakenly thought that the big box they brought was a dowry, and no one went to check it. ”
"What do you think, what do you think you want to do if you put the whole royal city in danger!" It turned out that there were signs beforehand, but no one took it seriously, and even if one person reported the abnormal situation, it would never happen tonight.
"Your Majesty, the minister once reported to the Queen Mother, and the number of envoys from Beiyan was more than in previous years, and the Queen Mother only said that it was okay, and the minister did not check again. Jing Zhaoyin said, kowtowed again and again, his forehead hit the ground, and there was a bang: "Your Majesty, the minister is derelict in his duties, please give the minister a death." ”
As he spoke, blood slowly flowed down from the place where his forehead was hit.
Li Yunyang frowned and said: "At the moment of the great enemy, you don't want to think about how to atone for the crime, but want me to punish you? If you want me to kill you, you don't have to work? Tell you, it's not such a cheap thing! You can clean up the trouble you caused yourself! Hurry up and find a way for me to save those women!"
Jing Zhaoyin kowtowed again and again, and was about to retreat, Feng Ge asked, "How do you want to save them?"
"There are still some people in the City Patrol Division and the Governor's Mansion that can be deployed. ”
"How many?"
"About ...... Thirteen or fourteen people ......" Jing Zhaoyin's voice became smaller and smaller, obviously he himself knew that it was a joke that the thirteen or fourteen people wanted to break into the military camp of the Northern Yan people and bring out those captive women.
Feng Ge asked, "Those thirteen or fourteen people, all of them are martial arts masters?"
"Also...... No, they ...... "Jing Zhaoyin couldn't speak, the young and middle-aged people had already been sent to defend the city, and those who stayed behind were all old and weak soldiers, several of whom had white beards, and they thought that they would go home in two months to recuperate in the autumn, but who would have thought that they would encounter the invasion of Beiyan, which was the first time they had lived for such a long time.
After listening to Jing Zhaoyin's words, Li Yunyang finally had a clear understanding of the current situation in the city, that is:
One no one
Second, there are no weapons
The third did not sit in the general
Feng Ge thought to himself, what do you want, it's better to wash and sleep, and wait to hand over the table to the Beiyan people to show his sincerity.
I want to think so, but she can't do this, the Western Xia Emperor Li Yunyang has now made it clear that he no longer wants to be a puppet emperor manipulated by the Empress Dowager Fu, and he needs to establish his prestige and do two serious things to let all the Western Xia people know that he is a serious emperor.
I remember that the great Taifu said that it is easy to put icing on the cake, but it is difficult to send charcoal in the snow. When Li Yunyang needed help the most, she helped him, and when Hengguo needed him in the future, he would be able to speak.
Feng Ge remembers her identity as the Prince of Daheng all the time, even if it is already a time of chaos, she still thinks that her "Experience Log" tomorrow has no material and can't be written, so she must do something promising.
The tricks he had learned flashed in his mind, and he went through all the preset conditions, and felt that there should be no problem, so Feng Ge spoke: "If Your Majesty can be trusted, I am willing to take this lead for Xia Guo." ”
Li Yunyang looked at her suspiciously: "You?"
Feng Ge in front of her, Hibiscus is like a willow like an eyebrow, small thin arms and small legs, there is nothing like a martial arts skill in her body, the only man around her who can fight is still lying in the side hall, extremely injured, and not awake.
Feng Ge saw his suspicions and smiled slightly: "As a leader, you only need to strategize, why do you need to do it yourself? If even the leader has to go down in person, then everyone is really fighting with their lives." ”
***
There is an idiom called "talking on paper", which means that without actual experience, you think that you are not good at it and can fly to the sky.
Feng Ge at this time is the best demonstration of talking on paper.
As soon as he said a big word in the palace, Li Yunyang was very moved, and asked her to randomly select people from the Praetorian Guards to form a team to rescue the more than 30 women.
Feng Ge picked ten people, and before leaving, Li Yunyang mobilized them well before the war, and they were inspired by Li Yunyang's enthusiasm boiling, and they hated to stain the battlefield with blood, and the horse leather shrouded body.
Everyone is hidden behind the sand dunes, in front of them is the camp of the Beiyan people, the torches illuminate the whole camp tent brightly, those Beiyan people are tall and majestic, around the bonfire, I saw them eating meat, drinking wine, those wine and meat, are just looted from the royal capital.
They talked loudly, sang and danced when they were interested, perhaps thinking that the Tangut people had been frightened by them, or perhaps they had figured out how many Tangut troops there were.
There were no soldiers patrolling in the whole camp at all, everyone was eating, drinking, laughing and playing, and it was as lively as a festival.
The cow has blown into the sky, and the ten men behind her are waiting for her order, whether the order is right or wrong, they will resolutely carry it out, and there will be no doubts.
What if it's wrong?
They are willing to die to save people, but it doesn't mean that they can die meaninglessly, Feng Ge regretted infinitely in her heart, what kind of hero she was just now, what could she do, if the women didn't save it, and put the man's life into it, she would have a troubled conscience in this life.
The plan for the raid has been thought out, and judging from the defense level of the Northern Yan people, it is not difficult to really implement it, but there is a very serious problem: where are the thirty or so women being held.
They must be located first to avoid accidental injury.
Feng Ge carefully observed, trying to find out the tents where the women were being held, but each tent looked exactly the same, and it was too difficult to distinguish them.
When he was embarrassed, suddenly someone behind him whispered, "Hey, a dog?"
Feng Ge felt that the hem of her trousers was being pulled by something, and when she looked down, a pair of dark eyes were looking at her, and her tail was wagging happily, it was the tiger who had gone out to wave for a long time.
If you use Huzi to find out the whereabouts of those women, it shouldn't attract attention......
"If only there were those women's belongings. Feng Ge muttered to herself.
"Yes, yes, yes......" Seven or eight voices responded at the same time, and they handed the things in their hands to Feng Ge. No wonder they were so excited just before they set off, and they thought that Li Yunyang's pre-war mobilization order was so fierce and touching, and it turned out that it was because all the people who were arrested were their relatives.
"The belt that my daughter-in-law gave me this morning should have her smell on it. ”
"This is the rice ball that my sister made for me. ”
"This is the copper plate my sister gave me. ”
"This is my sister-in-law's comb......"
Feng Ge frowned: "Why is your sister-in-law's comb here with you?"
"It's time like this, don't worry about these details. ”
Huzi sniffed them one by one, except for swallowing the rice balls in one bite, he didn't react at all, and looked at Feng Ge blankly, not knowing what she wanted to let herself do.
These things have been left for too long, and there is no breath of those women for a long time, Feng Ge frowned, stood up, and inadvertently fell out of an iron box from his sleeve pocket, which was when she lived in King Ning's mansion before, Princess Ning borrowed the rouge she used when she was dressing, she liked the delicacy of this box, and praised it, and Princess Ning gave it to herself.
Feng Ge's heart moved, opened the iron box, sniffed it for Huzi, and pointed in the direction of the barracks, Huzi seemed to have found the target this time, and ran over all the way, Feng Ge's eyes chased it closely, watching it enter the barracks, turn left and right, and then disappear.
Then, she heard a frantic barking, a black shadow ran towards the Gobi Desert like lightning, and dozens of drunken Beiyan people shouted: "Roast dog meat, dog meat hot pot, dog meat soup ......" and followed the tiger wildly.
Originally, I just wanted it to use its talent to find out the tent where those women were imprisoned, but I didn't expect it to unexpectedly use a trick to "divert the tiger from the mountain", and it did a beautiful job, I believe that as a black dog, it should be able to get rid of those Beiyan people who were so drunk that they couldn't even walk in a straight line in the dark night.
Feng Ge took ten Western Xia men and quietly approached the camp tent of the Northern Yan people from behind, there was an obvious missing piece of the tent curtain, and there were traces of dogs in front of the door, it seemed that this was the place where those women were held.
At this time, the Beiyan people were busy eating, drinking, and having fun, and there was not a single Beiyan person here, not even a guard. Their relatives were in front of them, and the ten men couldn't hold back for a long time, and wanted to rush in and rescue them.
Unexpectedly, at this time, someone actually lifted the curtain and went in, and a woman's exclamation came from the tent.
They are also women, how could Feng Ge see them being wantonly abused by the Beiyan people, and even more so the men behind her.
"Give the order!"
"Give the order!"
Feng Ge hurriedly glanced at the Beiyan people in the distance, very good, there was only one person who came over, and ten people couldn't clean him up!
She raised her hand, and just as she was about to give the order, an accident happened.
The person who went in just now came out quickly, and he met two Beiyan soldiers who also wanted to go in at the door, and the man grabbed the necks of the two Beiyan soldiers from left to right, and sang and danced to hook them to the edge of the fire again.
What kind of play is this?Feng Ge spun around in his mind a few times, but he didn't understand what the situation was?
And how did the figure of that person look so familiar? Unfortunately, it was so far away that I couldn't see who it was.
***
In the entire Oriental Continent, the people of Beiyan who love to drink the most are the people of Beiyan, who drink when they are happy, when they are unhappy, when they are happy, when they are sad, when they are sad, they can drink from men and women.
However, the best at making wine is not the Northern Yan people, but the Tangut people, the unique climatic conditions make the land of the Tangut more suitable for the growth of various fruits and grains, when the crops are harvested, they will come up with various ways to preserve, and maximize the use.
Winemaking is a good choice.
The Tangut people did not love drinking as much as the Northern Yan people, but their wine-making skills recognized the second in the entire Eastern Continent, and no one dared to recognize the first.
But the Tangut people themselves did not drink it, because these liquids were like silver flowing in a hurry for them.
The fruit wine was sold to Dahengguo, the glow-in-the-dark cup of grape wine, and the young man of Hengguo played his eyebrows.
The liquor was sold to the Northern Yan Kingdom, and the drunken wine cup was noisy, and the Northern Yan Iron Horse was flying all over the sky.
The pursuit of the Tangut people was not only to become a supplier of fine wine, but also to create a kind of accelerant that could turn the flame into a blue like a clear lake, which was the essence of wine, called "alcohol", a technique that had been kept secret and was the highest level secret among the Tangut blacksmiths.
