169 Three strategies

She listened quietly, the battlefield has always been a man's world, she is like a listener, a hurried passer-by, sometimes contemplative, sometimes smiling, sometimes nodding slightly, sometimes getting up and walking to the window, feeling the coldness of the night breeze.

The tragedy of the battle of Flying Wolf Ridge, the blood flowed like a river, the corpses were like a mountain, the border army swore to protect the desperate fight of the commander and several generals, that night turned into a hell on earth, the Xiqi people crossed the Flying Wolf Pass, passed through the Cold Moon Pass, Humen Pass, and directly took the six cities in the northwest of the country, and for a time they actually killed five hundred miles, how many wives were scattered, now thinking about it, Jiang Shulin seems to be able to hear their cries and screams.

After listening to this, Su Yan couldn't calm down for a long time, but only talked about two small battles and one of the biggest battles, and she seemed to see fresh lives one by one, either swords or guns, falling on the blood-spattered battlefield.

She was always listening, and she was silently thinking, Tuoba Zhao was originally a strange soldier, and he was good at arranging formations, and he was even more powerful. "Sixth brother will tell me about Tuoba Zhao again."

Jiang Shulin was a little tired, a warrior found a black tile bowl, filled it with boiling hot water, he took a sip, and said: "Tuoba Zhao, the second prince of Xiqi Kingdom, was born to King Xiqi and a beautiful female slave girl in the palace, and his biological mother was humble and was not valued in Xiqi. Three years ago, the prince and prince of the Western Kingdom fell from his horse during an autumn hunt and died instantly.

As we all know, Queen Xiao of Xiqi Kingdom has only one son under her knees, and Uncle Xiao Guo, in order to consolidate the status of the Xiao family in the country, suggested that Queen Xiao accept Tuoba Zhao as her adopted son, and Uncle Xiao Guo married his beloved daughter Xiao Mingyue as a concubine.

It is rumored that Tuoba Zhao was particularly filial and respectful to Queen Xiao, and once threatened to fulfill his unfulfilled wish for the prince's deceased brother, that is, to no longer let the people of Xiqi suffer from cold and starvation, and to take half of the Northern Qi Dynasty......"

Su Yan doesn't believe it, a prince who has been snubbed and suppressed everywhere since he was a child. Suddenly, one day because the queen liked it, he once jumped to the most respected person among the princes, "The so-called wish for the dead brother is just an excuse for his greed." He just wants to use his military merits to prove that he is no worse than other brothers, and he wants to use his own merits to secure the position of the prince of a country. ”

Jiang Shulin said: "In the past, Yan Shizi also said something similar. ”

So-yeon asked, "When is the next battle set?" ”

Jiang Shulin thought about it again and again, "After the battle ten days ago, the casualties on both sides were extremely heavy, and they needed to rest and recuperate. I don't know what the little sister has to do? ”

"I have three things in mind. Which one does the sixth brother want to hear? ”

"Let's hear it!"

Su Yan exhaled, "Make a decision, give me three million taels of silver." No matter how many 5,000 carefully selected soldiers are delaying the March fighter plane for me, I have my own way to let all the Xiqi soldiers be captured alive, or let him be a million heroes, or he will not survive for a lifetime. Don't you see the blade! ”

When the other people heard this, Jiang Shulin's expression was awe-inspiring: "What kind of method is this, five thousand elite soldiers can beat hundreds of thousands of Xiqi troops!" ”

"Three million taels of silver, one million taels for making poison, another million taels for the things necessary for the array, and another million taels for military pay and other purposes. But this method is extremely vicious. You can set up a demon subduing array, and when the time comes, you can introduce them into the array, as long as you enter the array. They don't want to figure it out, whether they starve to death or die of poisoning is up to our army. ”

Hundreds of thousands of people will die in battle. It's appalling.

Jiang Shulin said: "What about the middle strategy? ”

"The Northern Qi soldiers fought hard with the Xiqi people, and they fought and rested. He lost 10,000 and I lost 8,000......"

Jiang Shulin shook his head: "If this is the case, Marshal Yang and other generals will not raise their little sister to the border city. What's the best policy? ”

"I haven't thought about the specifics yet, but this method needs to be managed by both sides, and the battles on the battlefield will be fought as they are, and the affairs of the West and the country will be carried out. In the long run, Tuoba Zhao must not become the prince of Xiqi, otherwise I will be in danger in Northern Qi, one will not do it, and the other will not stop, cut off Tuoba Zhao's back road, and then decide on the battlefield. ”

She narrowed her eyes and sat down in front of the campfire, "Sometimes there are many ways to end wars, military generals can fight, and civil ministers can govern the country." If Tuoba Zhao's backyard catches fire, can he still stay on the battlefield with peace of mind? ”

Jiang Shulin's aura was a glimmer, and then he dimmed, shook his head and said: "It doesn't work, the emperor ordered our people to do it in Xiqi Dadu earlier, but they all failed." Tuoba Zhao's relationship with Queen Xiao and Uncle Xiao was solid, and the courtiers who intended to separate him from Queen Xiao's mother and son were all killed by King Xiqi, saying that he had ill intentions and would not dare to do such things in the future. ”

Su Yan's meaning: Divide the mother-son relationship between Queen Xiao and Tuoba Zhao, but this trick has never succeeded in Xiqi Kingdom, and she has lost several courtiers buried in Xiqi in vain.

"Sixth brother, there are no absolutes in the world. If you can't grasp his weaknesses, you can attack his strengths, such as what he likes and cares about the most...... And so on, I don't believe that the West Devil Congress is a seamless egg, and if it is, it is also a false appearance for outsiders. ”

Su Yan didn't know much about Tuoba Zhao, and let out a long sigh of relief, "I can't give more good advice now, I need time to learn more details, know myself and my opponent, so that I can survive a hundred battles." ”

After Jiang Shulin was silent for a long time, he said, "With three million taels of silver and five thousand elite soldiers, you can defeat Tuoba Zhao?" ”

"This matter is too damaging to yin morality, so don't let it go." Su Yan disrupted Jiang Shulin's words, "If it is not used properly, it will attract a greater counterattack, or affect innocent soldiers." ”

Jiang Shulin looked at the night, the rain seemed to be lighter again, took off the cloak on his body, and gently draped it on Su Yan: "Little sister, it's time for us to leave for the camp." ”

Su Yan almost muttered to herself, she came with confidence, but now listening to Jiang Shulin's description of Xiqi's deployment of troops, she no longer dares to underestimate the enemy, a Tuoba Zhao is already successful, and adding a lame military division is even more like a tiger.

When I arrived at the camp in Xubian, it was already four and three quarters.

Rain, lingering underground.

The night is silent.

Columns of six patrolmen weaved through the camp, their lonely figures reflected in the light of lanterns.

Less than two miles away from the camp, there was a ruined city, the city walls had been destroyed, the camp was set up in an open area, there was no one to rely on, the only big river flowed through the direction of Cold Moon City, and the river flowed through the side of Cold Moon City, and also from the side of the camp.

There were lookouts at the four corners of the camp, and there was one in front of the gate, and there were several wooden arrows in the doorway, and the thick wooden trunks of the bowl were covered with wooden arrows, and the guards heard the sound of horses' hooves and shouted: "Who is coming?" ”

Jiang Shulin clarified his identity, and the guards checked it correctly, making people put down the plank. When I set up camp here, I thought of using the river as a moat to add another barrier.

After entering the camp, Jiang Shulin instructed the others: "Everyone go down and rest, and I will send the county lord of Anxi to the small tent." ”

Su Yeon's small tent was placed behind the tent, adjacent to the tent of the king and his son on the left shoulder, and the small tent had been inhabited before that.

She is Jiang Zhanyan, Jiang Shukun's beloved daughter, the thirteen-year-old Miss Zhanyan, although she is not very old, she has practiced martial arts since she was a child, and she has been on the battlefield several times.

Jiang Shulin sent Su Yan outside the door of the small tent, and was about to speak, when he saw Liu Feifei running out happily: "Senior sister, you are finally here." ”

The tent reflected the delicate figure of Zhanyan, and Su Yan recalled the appearance of Zhanyan that she had never seen in her previous life and this life.

She only remembered that in her previous life, the Jiang family was copied, Jiang Shupeng, Jiang Chuanhei, and Jiang Chuanye's young daughters were not enslaved in the palace, and Jiang Zhanyan was the only woman who had reached the age of fifteen.

Jiang Zhanyan became an official prostitute, and soon it was reported that Jiang Zhanyan had killed the children of the official eunuchs and his whereabouts were unknown, and he was designated as a prisoner by the imperial court and embarked on the road of escape.

Su Yan said: "Sixth brother, you go and rest, and we will discuss something tomorrow." ”

Jiang Zhanyan lifted the curtain and looked at Su Yan with a smile: "Zhanyan has seen my aunt!" ”

"Well, they've grown so big, time flies so fast."

Zhan Yan smiled sweetly, and secretly said in his heart: Is it good that I am two years younger than her, it seems that I am much older than her when I say this, alas, who made her aunt.

The three of them entered the small tent, Su Yan examined the tent, a wooden couch made of stones and wooden boards, with four smoothed branches to support a blue background and white cloth Luo tent, a simple table case was placed on one side, there was a large wooden box on one side, and there were stones stacked below, which could also be used as a table case, a wooden frame oil lamp, burning a bean lamp, dim, and the light was dim. Because it is a small tent of the daughter's house, there is a clay pot on one side, which is inserted with peach blossoms picked from the mountains and fields, as well as unknown mountain flowers, which add a lot of color to the small tent.

On the other end, a very small place was encircled with a tent, and Liu Feifei said with a smile: "Senior sister, I'll go and bring hot water to bathe you, there is a stack of pastries on the table, you eat some first." ”

Su Yan provoked Luo Tent, but it was bigger than she thought: "Zhanyan, you have always lived in such a place?" ”

Zhan Yan took a look: "I used to live with the girl on this small couch, and today I got the news that my aunt and Aunt Liu were coming, so my mother took someone to build a few wooden planks to double the size of this bed, and said that I will live with you in the future." ”

She paused, "When I was a child, my father and mother and I lived in Huyang City, and we have always been very happy, but when Xiqi sent troops to invade the country, they met with Marshal Yang, and our family also lived in the camp. The two brothers were going to go to war, and even my father and mother were not available, so they put a small tent for me and the girl, and I took care of myself by myself, which was really boring, so I played with the girl. ”

At a young age, he has been crawling on the battlefield belonging to men, even if he is not on the battlefield, such a man-like rush is already admirable.

"Aren't you afraid?"

Zhan Yan sat down beside Su Yan and said, "When I first started fighting, of course I was afraid, I saw too many dead people, and I was not afraid if I saw too much. Last fall, my mother would take me with her when she went to war, auntie, don't underestimate it, I have killed twenty-seven enemy thieves on the battlefield. My brothers also praised me, saying that I would be a heroine like my mother......"
