Chapter 0126: Swap Back to the First Brigade
Relying on the advantage of numbers, the Argentine and Turkish coalition forces surrounded Putao City with 20,000 infantry.
They also had 5,000 cavalry, ambushed on the "only way" in Dunhuang to support Putao City.
Because the road is the closest, if you don't take this road, you have to take a long detour or cross the desert.
They believed that it was impossible for the heavy cavalry of the Liang army to break through the desert, because the hooves of the horses were not suitable for walking in the desert, and once they encountered a storm, they did not need to be beaten by others, and the Liang army was wiped out by the desert.
As a result, Chen Mu passed through the desert.
In Chen Mu's words, if you don't take some risks, how can you win by surprise.
In fact, Chen Mu's words were also helpless, because Shi Jinchong was already a little uncontrollable.
This tiger general is worried that his second brother will die in Putao City. So he scratched his heart and liver, roared and screamed. If you have to kill someone, you have to save his second brother.
The next day, before the sky was completely light, Putao City was on fire on all sides, shrouded in black smoke.
At this time, the Aziman and the barbarian coalition army attacked for two hours last night, and felt that they could not take it, so they simply surrounded the city.
At this time, they were cooking on a fire, and wisps of cooking smoke were billowing up.
Suddenly, a cavalry kicked up a cloud of sand and dust from the desert, and the rumbling sound of horses' hooves broke directly behind the enemy troops.
The three generals, Shi Jinchong, desperate, went straight to the Aziman Wang Qi, and after a chaotic knife, the Wang Qi collapsed violently.
As soon as the king's banner fell, the enemy army was in chaos, and the troops besieging the city on all sides quickly approached in the direction of the king, and at this moment, the second brigade, which had been trapped all night, came out of the city.
The two groups of cavalry broke into the enemy infantry with fierce spirits, and the Hu infantry wore animal skin armor, how to compete with the iron cavalry of the Liang army, it was like killing sheep.
The two forces of the Liang army went on a rampage, and soon after, Shi Jinchong grabbed one person with one arm and threw it in front of Chen Mu.
"This is King Azman!"
At this time, the king of Azman was really miserable.
was half dead by Shi Jinchong's arm, and then fell to the ground, didn't come up in one breath, and almost suffocated to death.
Relax for a moment and want to get up from the ground.
Zhen Badao kicked over, and Wang sat on the ground again.
Zhen Badao was furious: "Tie him up, hang him on a high pole to show the public, and let all his troops surrender." ”
Chen Mu hurriedly stopped: "No, they are sectarian countries, and their king is also their archbishop, so their respect for the king is beyond our imagination, the more we abuse their king, the stronger their determination to fight." I'd better leave him to me. ”
Chen Mu helped King Azman up and saw that it was an old man who was over the age of six, and Chen Mu said to King Azman: "Follow me into the chariot and call your people to lay down their arms, and I promise not to kill them." ”
King Aziman straightened his back: "If you were coercing me, I would never agree." We are not a bad breed. ”
Chen Mu smiled: "No coercion, this is a request." ”
The king cared very much about face, fell into ashes, stretched out his hand and dusted it, before boarding the chariot of the Liang army, accompanied by Chen Mu, the carriage rushed to the crowd of chaotic battles.
Seeing that the commander of the Liang army was riding in the same car as King Azman, the troops on both sides began to collect their troops and retreat.
King Azman told them to lay down their weapons, and soon after, the soldiers dropped their weapons and moved closer to the west.
At this time, the allied army of the barbarian king also withdrew his troops.
Later, the Liang army was in the east, and the Hu soldiers were in the west, leaving an open space in the middle.
Chen Mu said to King Aziman: "How do you think this matter should be dealt with?" ”
Wang, disgraced, said, "I don't know. ”
Chen Muyi said with a smile: "We have a sentence in the original, which is called 'no fight, no deal', and another sentence called 'turning hostility into jade silk', and there is also a sentence called 'stubborn and self-inflicted'." I don't want you to kneel before me before your subjects, because that would undermine the king's dignity. I love the dignity of you, and I admire the Archbishop and the God you believe in. Although you made a mistake this time, it was not a fatal mistake. I think there is still the possibility of peace between our two countries. I wonder if the king is willing to reconcile with the beam? ”
King Azman thought for a moment, "Then you let me go back." ”
Chen Mu smiled and asked, "It's that simple?" ”
"Or else?"
"I don't think there's a basic trust between us."
"So how can there be trust?"
"Do you have a daughter? The daughter who is not out of the cabinet. ”
"What do you mean? Do you want to marry my daughter? ”
"Well..., I don't think my status is high enough. I think that Kong Xiaoxian, the general of Anxi, is qualified to marry your country. However, your princess may not be the wife of the main house, because at this time my eldest brother is preparing to marry Princess Sangla. ”
Hearing this, King Azman was very angry, saying that his daughter was a goddess in the hearts of the people in the country of Azman, how could she be a little wife to others.
Chen Mu said, what's wrong with the little wife? Today's Queen Mother was also the emperor's little wife, will she be delayed as the queen?
King Aziman asked Chen Mu, what kind of role are you in the Tang Clan, and how can you call the shots for General Anxi?
Chen Mudao: "I am a border general, the master can't do this, do you still have the face to negotiate with you?" ”
King Aziman's eyes rolled and said, "No, no, I don't believe your words. ”
Chen Mula's face sank: "This doesn't work, that doesn't work, do you still have sincerity?" You brought troops to kill my thousands of soldiers, and asked you to marry a daughter, are you at a loss? ”
"We're dying more!"
"You brought it on yourself! If you don't, I'll order all your people to be killed right now. If you agree, I will not only release you, but also open a trade route for you. Weigh the two sides and make a decision as soon as you can! ”
In the end, Shang Tao impressed King Azman, and he agreed to marry his youngest daughter to Kong Xiaoxian as his little wife.
However, before the princess got married, Chen Mu detained Prince Aziman, who came with the army, and then released King Aziman to go home with his "bare-handed soldiers".
King Aziman hung his head and returned to the Iron Gate Pass with the remnants of the defeated army.
In this battle, Chen Mu captured a large number of weapons and 5,000 horses.
Chen Mu quickly informed Kong Xiaoxian, and the letter said that the eldest brother must agree to this marriage.
Soon after, Kong Xiaoxian replied with an official letter and a letter.
In the official document, Chen Mu was asked to hand over the horses. The reply said that the 5,000 horses would be exchanged for the original Wang Caotian cavalry troops.
As a result, the allegiance of the 3,000 troops left behind and herded the horses back.
Before leaving, Dian allegiance and Chen Mu asked for 1,200 people. Chen Mu said, I just finished the war here, and there is a shortage of 1,000 people, I will give you 200 to help you herd horses, and you don't have to think about the rest.
The allegiance was not in line, and he left in a sullen manner.
Wang Caotian was very happy when he resumed the cavalry brigade, shouting everywhere that Chen Mu had a lot of methods, and he was in a happy mood when he mixed with him.
Chen Mu opened the envelope and saw Kong Xiaoxian's angry words:
"My dear second brother, can you stop for a while? I'm contacting King Sangla to marry Princess Sangla, and you've got me a little wife here? Is this appropriate? Even if I agree to this, I must wait until I marry Princess Sangla before considering it, otherwise I will inevitably anger King Sangla, you must know that the strength of King Sangla is second only to the Sogdian Department, and you can't offend casually. ”
Chen Mu rubbed his chin and replied: "As a general of Anxi, the eldest brother has outstanding military achievements and a great reputation, and the kings of the Western Regions worship you very much. They all especially want to marry their daughter to their eldest brother. If the eldest brother is gracious, this is a blessing for both parties. The second brother didn't dare to make decisions for the eldest brother in other matters, but when it came to marrying a little wife, the second brother was the one to call the shots for the elder brother. Let's take Princess Achu over first, as for when the marriage will be completed, it depends on the mood of the eldest brother. ”
Putting down the pen, Chen Mu shouted: "Shi Jinchong, send someone to the Iron Gate Pass to deliver the letter, and ask them to send the princess to Jiuquan quickly." The day the princess arrives in Jiuquan is the time to release the prince. In addition, he told the Aziman people that General Ben had decided to open a trade route for them. Send troops along the way to protect their merchants. ”
