Chapter 50: Old Sichin's Dilemma
The telegram from the king reached the hands of Schinbarge, and the old Szchen scratched his head. King De is a hereditary Mongolian king, and Siqin Bari has always respected him, so it can be said that King De's order is the order of the immortal heaven, which is a bit too much. But the order personally issued by His Royal Highness King Toku, for Sichinbari, who grew up on the steppe, was no less than the holy decree that he generally dared not disobey.
Do you want to lead the army back to the grassland now? According to Sichinbari's original intention, he must have wanted to return, and he did not dare to disobey the will of King De. But his son Rakoshin is an official under Ren Laifeng, if he leads people away, what will happen to his son? If he takes the Mongol cavalry away, what if Ren comes to anger Rakoshin? Schimbarge hesitated.
Just when the old man was in a dilemma, Rakoshin came. Rakoshin came with Bayan. The two Mongolian generals rushed into the old man's tent in full of military uniforms, and when they saw it, the old man was looking at it with a sad face holding a piece of paper.
"Father, what's wrong with you?" Seeing his father's sad face, Rakoshin was startled and hurried over to greet him.
Bayan also followed, although he was Rakoshin's deputy, but since the two of them grew up together, he was just like Rakoshin's brother, and the old man was also anxious about something. "Lord Schenbarge, has something happened to you?"
"Rakoshin, Bayan, you're here!" Seeing his son and Bayan coming in together, Old Siqin immediately smiled as if he had found a solution to the problem, "Come, sit down, children." Come on, bring milk tea to the two chiefs! ”
A servant brought milk tea, and Siqin Bari asked the two young people: "Drink, my child." Seeing that the two of them took milk tea and drank a bowl of each, he handed over the telegram draft in his hand, "Look at Rakoshin, your father is struggling with this." You two are here just in time, so help me get an idea. ”
Rakoshin took the draft of the telegram with a puzzled expression, Bayan turned his head too, and the two of them quickly read the draft of the telegram from beginning to end with four eyes. Bayan looks at Rakoshin, and Rakoshin looks at Bayan. Bayan didn't speak, Rakoshin frowned and thought for a moment, then slapped the telegram draft on the table, "Father, what are you going to do?" ”
"Me? I'm going to bring the centaurs back to the grasslands. But I'm worried about you two. Alas, you say, 'What shall I do?' ”
"Can't go back!" Rakoshin and Bayan said this in unison. After saying that, the two looked at each other again, and they both saw surprise on each other's faces, neither of them expected that the other would say the same thing as themselves.
"Father, you can't go back! King De does not send a telegram in the morning and does not send a telegram in the evening, and he has such a telegram at this time. Needless to say, the Japanese must have gone looking for him! Have you forgotten? King De is no longer the German king of the Mongols, he is now the chairman of the self-controlled government of the Mongol Union, and he has completely fallen to the side of the Japanese! ”
"Yes, sir! You led 50,000 steppe warriors to help the commander-in-chief resist the Japanese, and if you bring people back now, these 50,000 warriors will definitely return to their respective tribes, and they will be scattered! Without troops, how can you be an opponent of King Germany? If you go back now, there will be more than one luck! "Bayan is better able to see the truth of the matter than Rakoshin, and he speaks more directly.
"But how can I not obey the command of King De? King De is the county king of Mongolia, if I don't obey his orders, isn't that tantamount to betraying the county king? "Schinbarge is still struggling. He understood what Rakoshin and Bayan said, but it was really difficult for him to change his mind at once.
"Well, since you don't listen to what we say, go and ask the commander-in-chief! If the commander-in-chief agrees to let you go back to the grassland, then we have nothing to say, and if the commander-in-chief doesn't agree, you'd better think about it seriously. ”
Rakoshin also had a way, seeing that he and Bayan couldn't convince the old man together, he simply moved Ren Laifeng out. You don't listen to what we say, and you don't listen to what the commander-in-chief says?
That's a solution! The old man's eyes lit up after listening to his son's proposal. In fact, he doesn't really want to go, and if he really wants to go, he won't be embarrassed. If Ren Laifeng didn't let him go, then of course he would have an excuse to stay: it wasn't that I didn't listen to orders, it was that the commander-in-chief wouldn't let me go. No matter how big you are, can you still control the commander-in-chief of others?
Rakoshin and Bayan didn't have time to talk about their daily routines anymore, so they pulled Sichinbari and went directly to the commander-in-chief Ren Laifeng.
Ren Laifeng is reading the battle report. After the battle is over, you can't report the loss to him. In this battle, so many heroic soldiers sacrificed, were wounded, and lost countless money, property and materials.
The orderlies came to report: Rakoshin and Bayan came with Sechindari.
This grandfather and son are here together? "Come in!" Ren Laifeng put away the battle damage report and stood up to greet the three Mongolian warriors.
After the four of them saw the ceremony, they sat down, and Ren Laifeng ordered tea to be served, but Rakoshin and Bayan waved their hands and declined. The two of them had just drunk a big bowl of milk tea by themselves, and their stomachs were full. The orderlies poured a cup of tea for Ren Laifeng and Si Qinbari and withdrew. Ren Laifeng picked up the teacup and let it go, and took a sip of it himself. I just looked at the materials for a long time, and the fire in my heart rose, and I needed to drink tea to extinguish the fire.
"Old Siqin, why don't you drink tea? Is it because you can't get used to drinking? Hehe, there's no way around it, I don't have milk tea here. You should learn to taste our Han tea, this thing moistens the throat and fire, moisturizes the yin and lungs, and cultivates sentiment, it is the best drink. Give it a try. ”
Si Qinbari was persuaded to take a sip, the taste was good, and there was a faint fragrance, but he was really not in the mood to cultivate any sentiment at this time, he had something urgent to discuss with Ren Laifeng.
"Commander-in-chief, I have a big matter I want to ask you for, please help me get an idea!"
"Oh? Do you have something important to ask me for? Hehe, old Siqin is too polite. Tell me about it, and I'll see if I can give you an idea. Ren Laifeng was a little curious about the three joint visits, he looked at Rakoshin, Bayan, and then at Sechindari, and seemed to understand something.
"Commander-in-chief, that's the case, today King De has sent a telegram." Sichinbari did not hide it at all, he not only showed the original draft of King De's telegram to Ren Laifeng, but also explained the reason for his embarrassment. That's right, he just wants Ren Laifeng to give him an idea.
Ren Laifeng did not disappoint Sichinbari, and after reading the telegram, he pointed out the conspiracy of King De on the spot: he just wants to trick you into going back to the steppe! Old Ski, you'll be out of luck once you return to the prairie!
