Chapter 176: Rush

After Jia Xu sat down gloomily, he got up and said, "Lord, what Wen He said makes sense." If you don't send troops at this time, I'm afraid you will miss the opportunity. Besides, the defeat of last year was not the fault of Wen He alone. ”

As soon as he saw that there were still people helping Jia Xu speak, Lin Nan became even more angry, and shouted angrily: "You only know one thing, but you don't know the other." Our army has not yet finished resting, how can we fight again? Don't mention the matter of sending troops! Those who mention it again will not be spared! ”

Seeing that Lin Nan was so angry, everyone was silent.

Seeing that no one spoke, Lin Nan said, "If it's okay, just break up the meeting." ”

As soon as everyone got up, they saw a brocade guard enter the interior to report: Qi Yu lord, master mother asks to see!

As soon as he heard that Cai Yan was coming, Lin Nan wondered: What is she doing here?

So, Lin Nan said: "Let Mrs. wait a while, and the meeting will be dismissed immediately." ”

As soon as the brocade guard turned around to leave, Lin Nan heard Cai Yan say: "No need, I came today to give an explanation to the ministers of Bingzhou." ”

Lin Nan looked up and saw that Cai Yan had already entered the hall and was walking towards him.

"Yan'er, what are you doing here?" When Cai Yan arrived, Lin Nan asked curtly.

Cai Yan bowed to Lin Nanshen and said, "Husband, the concubine came today just to give you an explanation. ”

"Confess what?" Lin Nan asked.

Cai Yan did not answer Lin Nan directly, but turned to the ministers of Bingzhou and said: "Ladies and gentlemen, since Lord Lin and Cai's wedding, Lord Lin has indulged in gentleness, ignoring government affairs, and tired the hearts of all adults. Chua was very uneasy. Therefore, Chua is here today. It's to apologize to the adults. After speaking, Cai Yan gave another deep salute to the ministers of Bingzhou.

And he saw the mistress giving a salute to herself. Everyone hurriedly returned the salute, and at the same time they were busy saying that they didn't dare. However, I did give Cai Yan a thumbs up in my heart.

After everyone got up, Cai Yan said again: "Cai's wife is the mother of the annexation of the state, and she is not effective in persuading her husband, which causes her husband's bad conduct and delays the politics of the annexation of the state. Therefore, Chua asked for a tattoo on his face to atone for his sins. Wake up husband. After speaking, Cai Yan took out a knife from his arms and stabbed him in the face.

As soon as they saw such a change, everyone panicked for a while, and they didn't know how to be good]β˜†dǐng]β˜†diǎn]β˜†small]β˜† said, .2β–‘3.oβ–½s_(); , and as soon as Lin Nan heard that he was going to tattoo words on his face, he knew that things were not good.

Fortunately, Lin Nan's martial arts skills are outstanding, so although the two are still some distance apart, he stretched out his hand like lightning. actually grabbed Cai Yan's blade.

Immediately, a stream of red blood seeped out of Lin Nan's palm.

Although Lin Nan's speed of action was very fast, but. Cai Yan's face was still scratched with a shallow thin blood mark.

snatched the knife from Cai Yan's hand, and didn't care about the pain in his hand, Lin Nan pointed at Cai Yan angrily and said, "What are you doing here?" ”

When I saw Lin Nan's right hand, blood gushed like a spring. Cai Yan also panicked, and he didn't know what to do. Just holding Lin Nan's hand with both hands, there were tears rolling in his eyes.

Then. Xun Yu was the first to react, got up and said: "Today's regular meeting of the state, this is the end, please go back to the back hall to bandage the wound quickly." ”

After Xun Yu finished speaking, everyone hurriedly agreed.

So, Cai Yan hurriedly helped Lin Nan back to the back hall, and everyone dispersed one after another.

Returning to the back hall, finding out the wound medicine, and bandaging Lin Nan's wound, tears finally welled up in the corners of Cai Yan's eyes.

Seeing Cai Yan's pitiful appearance, Lin Nan's heart suddenly warmed, and he hugged Cai Yan in his arms and wiped the tears on his face for him.

At this time, the shallow thin knife mark on Cai Yan's face has also been properly treated, and it is estimated that there will be no scars.

Although Lin Nan's actions were very rude, Cai Yan did not resist and struggle, but obediently snuggled into Lin Nan's arms.

"Yan'er, why are you so stupid?" Lin Nan couldn't help but blame.

"I'm willing to do anything for you." In this way, Cai Yan actually blurted out.

As soon as he heard this, Lin Nan couldn't help but feel moved again, if he has a wife like this, what more can a husband ask for.

After sighing with emotion, Lin Nan whispered to Cai Yan: "Yan'er, don't worry, your husband will never let you down." ”

And Cai Yan also smiled slightly at this time, stroked Lin Nan's cheek and said, "Yan'er knows." ”

At this time, I only heard Xiao Yahuan shouting outside the door: My lord, madam, Mr. Cai is here.

As soon as he heard that his father-in-law was coming, Lin Nan hurriedly tidied up his clothes and led Cai Yan to the hall to greet the old man.

The news didn't have long legs, but it spread very quickly. As soon as the meeting of the Assassin's Mansion was dismissed, it didn't take long for Cai Yong to know the news that Cai Yan was going to kill himself.

As soon as he heard that his daughter was going to disfigure herself, Cai Yong was startled at the time, thinking: What does this stupid girl want to do? If you disfigured your appearance, can you keep your position in the future?

So, as soon as he heard the news, Cai Yong hurried to the Assassin's Mansion.

As soon as he saw that his daughter was unharmed, Cai Yong was finally relieved.

Finding an excuse to break away from Lin Nan, Cai Yong said to his daughter: "You stupid girl, why are you so stupid!" In the future, you must not do such a thing again, understand? ”

Seeing that his father was so nervous, Cai Yan was busy and moved.

Immediately, Cai Yong said solemnly: "Ziyang, this person is too romantic, the group of little girls in the backyard can't understand it anymore, and I don't know how many there are in the future." If you really kill yourself, will you be able to keep your position in the future? Silly boy, why can't you think about what will happen to you in the future? You are no longer a child, but you are still so willful and impulsive in doing things, you really can't do anything, remember in the future, you must have a big picture of doing things, and you must plan more for the future. ”

Cai Yan tearfully agreed.

……

The next day, Lin Nan invited Xun Yu, Xun You, Jia Xu, Fu Zhu, Liu Ye, Xian Pei, Chen Gong, and Tian Feng to his study.

After the few people arrived, Lin Nan said: "As soon as the preparations have been made, the Dragoon Army, the Wolf Cavalry Army, the Bear Storm Army and the Tiger Ben Army will march to Karen County tomorrow, and I will lead the Locust Army, special forces and guard battalions to Karen County tomorrow, Wen He, Zizheng, and Ziyang will go with me." After I left, and the state affairs of the big and small. Please. ”

As soon as they heard Lin Nan say this, everyone understood: Lin Nan has been pretending these days. It turned out that they were all preparatory activities for the sneak attack on the Xianbei people.

So, after understanding the truth of the matter. Tian Feng hurriedly knelt on the ground and said: "Feng didn't know that the lord's worries were so far-reaching, and his words hit the lord several times, and caused Mrs. Cai to almost kill herself. ”

Lin Nan hurriedly picked up Tian Feng and said: "Yuan Hao is upright and loyal, this is the blessing of the state, Nan's words and deeds are absurd recently, Yuan Hao is outspoken and strong, although the ancient famous minister." That's just the case, what is Yuan Hao's crime? ”

Seeing Lin Nan's humility, Tian Feng was even more moved, and he didn't know what to say.

After helping Tian Feng up, Lin Nan smiled and said, "It's just that I was wronged yesterday." ”

Jia Xu said: "Sharing worries for the Lord is a matter within the affairs of people and ministers, so what do you complain about?" ”

After Jia Xu finished speaking, Lin Nan said with emotion: "Nan can get the help of several great talents, and he is really fortunate to have three lives." ”

Lin Nan finished speaking. A few people were busy and modest again.

Immediately, Lin Nan said again: "This time I went to Xianbei, and Nan wanted to fight a blitzkrieg, so." will emit a lot of smoke. In this battle, the focus is on secrecy and speed. So, after going south. Jinyang City will be under martial law for five days, and only allowed to enter. Not allowed to come out, five days later. One qiΔ“ is fine as usual. ”

After Lin Nan finished speaking, several people agreed.

……

The next day, after bidding farewell to Cai Yan, Lin Nan led the army to gallop towards Karen County.

Four days later, Lin Nan rushed to Karen County, and in just four days, the small Karen County suddenly had 70,000 more soldiers and horses, all of which were cavalry, including 40,000 Guards and 10,000 cavalry from the 1st, 2nd and reserve divisions.

After a day's rest in Karen, together with the 10,000 cavalry of Zhang Liao's 3rd Division, the 80,000-strong army began to advance into the depths of the steppe.

The dragoons and wolf cavalry were the vanguards, Xu Huang and Yu Ban were the left wings, Gao Shun and Zhang Liao were the right wings, and Lin Nan and Jia Xu led the Chinese army.

Along the way, when he saw Xianbei people, whether they were young and strong soldiers, or old and weak women and children, in order not to leak the news, Lin Nan did not hesitate to solve it.

After five days of raiding and plundering, the state army finally approached the royal court of Tuoba Xianbei.

Ordering the army to rest on the spot and remain vigilant, Lin Nan decided to destroy the Tuoba Xianbei tribe in a battle at night.

Since Lin Nan's defeat last autumn, Tuoba Ying has sent additional spies to spy on the military situation of Bingzhou, so as to always understand the military situation of Bingzhou and prevent Lin Nan from retaliating. Therefore, Lin Nan's every move in Jinyang, Tuoba Ying knows.

As soon as he heard that Lin Nan was married, Tuoba Ying thought that Lin Nan would not send troops for the time being, because who would want to touch the cold sword of the newlywed Yan'er?

At the same time, I heard that Jia Xujian, the military division of Bingzhou, sent troops, but was scolded by Lin Nan, and because of Lin Nan's extravagance and ignorance of government affairs, Lin Nan's wife was actually disfigured, and Lin Nan's right hand was injured, so Tuoba Ying concluded that Lin Nan would not send troops to the grassland for a period of time.

Because of Lin Nan's smoke, Tuoba Ying's judgment was wrong, and due to Tuoba Ying's judgment error, Tuoba Xianbei's department was wiped out.

As soon as the third watch passed, Lin Nan gathered the whole army and secretly approached the royal court of the Tuoba Xianbei Department.

After walking for an hour, he saw a glimmer of dawn in the east, and Wang Ting of the Tuoba Xianbei Department was in sight, so Lin Nan ordered the trumpeters to blow the trumpet.

The loud charge woke up the sweet dreams of the Xianbei people.

When you wake up from a sweet dream, the nightmare begins.

The army of 80,000 swept a few back and forth in the royal court of the Tuoba Xianbei Department.

It's a battle without suspense, because one side comes prepared, and the other side is completely defenseless.

After dawn, it was all over.

The state army beheaded countless people and captured countless prisoners.

Under the light of the rising red sun, the ruined royal court looked even more dilapidated.

Standing on the command car, facing the rising sun, looking at the group of prisoners, Lin Nan's mood was greatly happy, he was finally ashamed and avenged, and the Xianbei people he killed with his own hands are probably no less than thousands, for these people, thinking of the five chaos in the future, Lin Nan has no mercy at all.

At this time, he suddenly saw a group of soldiers walking towards him with three captives, one old captive and two young captives.

When he came to the front, the sergeant of the Bingzhou Army led by him saluted and said, "Report! Enlightening the Lord: These three men claim to be the leaders of the Xianbei people, and they ask to see the lord. ”

Lin Nan looked down at the three of them, and said, "I am Lin Nan." What do you have to say? ”

I saw the Xianbei man who was about fifty years old clasped his fists and said: "In the lower Tuoba Eagle, he is the leader of the Tuoba Xianbei Tribe. ”

After speaking. He pointed to the two young captives beside him and said, "This is the dog Tuoba Yong and Tuoba Lie. ”

"It turned out to be Shan Yu." Lin Nan said lightly.

"I have no regrets about the defeat in this battle. If you want to kill or chop, you will listen to it, but if you want us to belong, we have one condition. Tuoba Ying said stiffly.

Lin Nan smiled slightly and said: "I didn't want you to belong to you, and there is a shortage of slaves in the state, so it's a pity to kill you, but I wiped out your Tuoba Xianbei Department overnight." The other small tribes are not rushing to submit, they are much easier to manage than you. ”

After Lin Nan finished speaking, Tuoba Ying shook his head and said: "My lord's words are wrong, Xianbei people are all good at archery and horse riding and archery, and all of them are heroes on the grassland, if you want us to surrender without a fight, it is impossible." ”

Lin Nandao: "The Huns are also good at archery and horse riding, and they are all heroes on the grassland, and they have not been conquered by me." I still say the same thing: Either you belong or you exterminate, you only have these two choices. ”

Seeing that Tuoba Ying bowed his head and was silent, Lin Nan said, "Take it down." Good students take care of it, and I will use their heads to pay tribute to Yu Zhongxiang and Huangfu Zixian in a while. ”

At this time, a person behind Lin Nan said, "Wait." ”

Lin Nan looked back. Seeing that the one who spoke was depressed.

I saw that Fu Zhu stepped forward and said, "Lord, we might as well listen to Tuoba Danyu's conditions first. ”

Lin Nan thought for a moment. Then he turned to Tuoba Ying and said, "The military advisor wants to know the conditions for your belonging, so tell me and listen to it." ”

Tuoba Ying clenched his fists again and said, "I want to fight fairly with adults." ”

I heard Tuoba Eagle say this. Lin Nan couldn't help but laugh and said, "It's up to you? Fight me too? ”

Tuoba Ying's face turned red, and he hurriedly said: "No, with the ability of adults, a thousand Tuoba Eagles are not opponents, what I said about fighting with adults, we will produce some people, you will produce some people, and the two sides will decide the outcome in a battle." ”

"How about winning? What if you lose? ”

"The adult wins, the whole Tuoba Xianbei tribe is attached, and the transformation of the adult is accepted, and the adult is defeated, and he will not be allowed to step into the grassland for half a step in his lifetime."

Lin Nan smiled: "In this way, I don't want to let you all go." ”

Tuoba Ying said: "No need, the adults only need to release those young people who are not injured, and our family can be the hostages of the adults first." ”

As soon as he heard Tuoba Ying say this, Lin Nan muttered a little in his heart, let's fight, I'm afraid that the state army will have some unnecessary casualties, don't fight, Tuoba Ying said such righteous and stern words, and if Tuoba Xianbei can be attached to the whole clan, then his strength will rise a lot.

Unable to pay attention, Lin Nan looked back at Jia Xu and the others to ask.

Frustratedly, he said: "Fight! ”

Liu Ye also said: "Fight!" ”

But Jia Xu said with a smile: "Not only do we have to fight, but we also have to withdraw from the royal court and let go of all the prisoners." ”

When everyone heard Jia Xu say this, they all looked at Jia Xu in surprise, and thought: What do you Jia Wenhe mean by this, let go of all the captives, then didn't we work all night in vain last night?

Lin Nan thought about it carefully, and suddenly realized.

So, Lin Nan turned to Tuoba Ying and said, "I promise to fight you fairly, and I will also release all the captives and withdraw from your royal court." However, I can only give you one day to prepare, and tomorrow you must fight, and at the same time, you cannot ask for assistance from other Xianbei tribes. ”

Tuoba Ying said: "Okay! Adults are really cheerful people. ”

Immediately, Lin Nan issued an order: "Release all the prisoners, return all the property, withdraw from the royal court, surround the royal court, the guards and reserve division in the north, the first division in the east, the second division in the west, and the third division in the south." ”

When the generals heard this order, they were all puzzled, but because of Lin Nan's military order, they had to follow it, but, in this way, the battle of the state army last night was a wasted effort.

The state army re-surrounded the royal court of Tuoba Xianbei, and all the generals had finished camping, so they all came to Lin Nan's tent for a meeting.

As soon as he entered the big tent of the Chinese army, Tai Shici said to Lin Nan Shili: "Big brother, why did you let go of those prisoners, even gave up the spoils of war, and withdrew from the royal court, then didn't we fight in vain last night?" ”

After Tai Shi Ci finished speaking, Zhao Yun and Huang Zhong and the others who arrived first also turned their heads to look at Lin Nan, it is true that they are also the same as Tai Shi Ci. Doubts about Lin Nan's military orders.

Lin Nan said with a smile: "Fourth brother Shao'an is not impatient, later." Brother will give you a satisfactory answer. ”

Helpless, Tai Shici had no choice but to sit down depressedly. But in my heart, I was silently calculating.

A moment later, all the generals arrived.

Seeing that the generals were seated, Lin Nan said: "Everyone, Tuoba Ying proposed to fight a fair battle with us, and if we win, he will sincerely return, I don't know if you have the courage to fight a fair battle with the Xianbei people?" ”

After Lin Nan finished speaking, Zhang Fei got up and said, "Why don't you dare?" I, Lao Zhang, will definitely be able to convince them in a battle. ”

Zhang Fei finished speaking. All the generals echoed and demanded a fair battle with the Xianbei people to play the military prestige of the state army.

So, Lin Nan said: "I know that you are all enemies of ten thousand people, so naturally you will not be afraid of the Xianbei soldiers, so I agreed to Tuoba Eagle's request, and also released all the prisoners. ”

Then. Lin Nan said: "We are fighting tomorrow and aiming to conquer, so we must win." And we will win, so I ordered that all the seized property be forfeited. Because after tomorrow's war, these possessions will still be ours. ”

"Originally. Tuoba Ying only asked for the release of the young and strong captives, and the old, weak, women and children could be our hostages first. But Jia Junshi set up yì to let go of all the prisoners, I think so, Wenhe, here, you can give everyone an explanation. After Lin Nan finished speaking, he looked at Jia Xu with a smile.

Jia Xu got up and said: "If we detain the family members of the Xianbei people, they will inevitably fight to the death for their families, so that the resistance to our victory will be great, and if we release their families, they will have worries, and they will not fight to the death, so that the resistance to our victory will be much smaller." ”

After Jia Xu finished speaking, all the generals said yes one after another. And Tai Shi Ci also stood up and saluted and said: "The military advisor is far-sighted and benevolent. ”

Seeing that the generals had no objections, Lin Nan said: "Everyone go back and prepare, and wait for tomorrow's battle." ”

There was nothing to do overnight, and early the next morning, Tuoba Ying sent someone to inform Lin Nan: Tuoba Xianbei sent 50,000 cavalry.

As a result, Lin Nan ordered the Guards to go into battle, and the other divisions were on standby.

After the sergeants of each battalion had eaten their fill, they went out of the camp and lined up.

The Dragoon and Wolf Cavalry were in the front, the Flying Locust Army was responsible for receiving the rear of the palace, the Bear Storm Army and the Tiger Ben Army were in the center, and the special forces and guard battalions were in the rear.

Cavalry, crossbowmen, infantry, special forces, horizontally unfolded, intertwined, layered, very spectacular.

After the formation was completed, Lin Nan ordered all the troops to shout to strengthen the army's might.

As soon as the herald on Lin Nan's side sounded, the response numbers of various departments also sounded one after another.

After the trumpet sounded, the wolf cavalry and dragoons slowly moved forward, and the soldiers struck their breastplates with bows and spears on their horses, and they rattled with their horses.

The soldiers rhythmically tapped the breastplate and shouted rhythmically: "Dragoon wolf ride, invincible in the world!" Dragoon wolf ride, invincible in the world! ”

As soon as he heard the slogans of the Dragoon Army and the Wolf Cavalry, Lin Nan couldn't help but laugh dumbly, turned back to Jia Xu and the others and said, "Who made them shout like that?" That's an exaggeration, isn't it? ”

Jia Xu shrugged his shoulders and shook his head with a smile, indicating that it had nothing to do with him. But he said: "It's okay to shout like this, the military authority should be like this." ”

Turning his head, Lin Nan thought to himself, let's see how the Bear Storm Army and the Tiger Ben Army shout in a while.

The dragoons and wolf cavalry marched forward three hundred paces and stopped.

Then, the Flying Locust Army also tapped the breastplate with their big bows, shouting as they walked: "Flying locusts and flying locusts, there is no other in the world!" Flying locusts and flying locusts, unparalleled in the world! ”

Lin Nan smiled: "How can this Huang Hansheng have such a penchant for fame." ”

The army of flying locusts took two hundred steps forward and stopped.

In the end, Zhang He and Zhang Fei led the Bear Storm Army and the Tiger Ben Army to also move forward, and at the same time, they also began to tap on the breastplate and shout slogans: "Bear Storm Tiger Ben, and the soul of the state army!" Bear Tyrant Tiger Ben, and the soul of the state army! ”

As soon as he heard the soul of the Bingzhou army, Lin Nan smiled and said, "It's still the second brother who will make up slogans." ”

The Bear Storm and Tiger Warrior took a hundred steps forward and stopped.

And the guard battalion and special forces, as Lin Nan's personal soldiers, were exempted from the procedure of shouting slogans.

Hearing the shouts of the Bingzhou army and the drums shaking the sky, Tuoba Ying couldn't help but be very surprised, thinking: If you fight, you will fight, what are you doing with these false courtesies?

However, Tuoba Ying still shouted to his soldiers: "Tuoba Xianbei heroic sons! In today's battle, we must not only protect our homeland, but also safeguard the honor of our heroes! Therefore, for the sake of the homeland, for the sake of honor, we must fight to the death! ”

Tuoba Eagle shouted as he drew his scimitar and met the rays of the sun.

"Fight to the death! Fight to the death! The Xianbei soldiers also kept shouting. (To be continued.) )

ps: The Three Kingdoms will end soon, and a new plane is being considered, brothers, don't worry.
