The commander of the Yuanshan Iron Cavalry stabbed Arur to death, and Mu Zhi watched quietly from the side.

It wasn't until the Commander of the Wonshan Iron Cavalry covered Arul's body with a cowhide blanket that Mu Zhi approached him, "You are staring here, and the people outside are handed over to me." ”

The commander of the Yuanshan Iron Cavalry hesitated for a moment and asked, "Is the drug enough?" ”

Mu Zhi laughed in a low voice: "There are too many drugs, but there is not enough wine, but don't worry, I have a way to make them all hit." ”

The Commander of the Yuanshan Iron Cavalry nodded and said no more.

A bright smile appeared on Mu Zhi's face, and he strode out of the tent.

Not far from the tent, there were several Qingtang soldiers standing guard.

Mu Zhi waved his hand slightly, and several Qingtang soldiers trotted in front of him.

"I've seen ...... general"

"No need to be polite."

After they gave their salutes, Mu Zhi said with a smile, and before a few Qingtang soldiers continued to speak, Mu Zhi ordered: "Go, order to go down." Tonight, slaughter cattle and sheep and have a full meal, and tomorrow will break through Xining City in one fell swoop. ”

When several Qingtang soldiers heard this, they hesitated.

Seeing this, Mu Zhi added, "This is also what General Arur meant. ”

Several Qingtang soldiers glanced at each other and saluted in unison.

"Subordinates understand ......"

Immediately, several Qingtang soldiers went down to convey the orders of Alur and Mu Zhi.

After the order reached the army, the Qingtang soldiers in the army instantly became lively.

They lit bonfires, slaughtered cattle and sheep, and hummed cheerful songs.

Wait until they cut the cattle and sheep and grill them.

Mu Zhi ordered drinks to be brought to them.

Due to the limited number of drinks, Müchs can only be supplied in limited quantities.

Two taels of Song spirits per person, and one pound of Qingtang's mare's milk wine.

After the wine was delivered to the army, the officers and men in the army were completely lively.

It was noisy until the second half of the night, and after the Qingtang soldiers returned to their tents, Mu Zhi personally led people to wander around each tent, and generously rewarded those Qingtang soldiers with his wine.

After Mu Zhi left, the Qingtang soldiers who had drunk felt sleepy one by one, and after finding a place to lie down at random, they could fall asleep in the blink of an eye.

Some people who didn't want to drink it, Mu Zhi also half-pushed and half-pushed people to pour it in.

Mu Zhi swayed in a circle among the Qingtang soldiers, and almost all the Qingtang soldiers fell asleep.

After they were asleep, 10,000 soldiers and horses of the Yuanshan tribe quietly appeared in their tents, tying them together with water-soaked cowhide ropes.

Mu Zhi is also a ruthless person, he not only let the soldiers of the Yuanshan tribe tie up the warriors of other tribes, but he also asked the soldiers of the Yuanshan tribe to tie up the warriors of his own tribe.

Mu Zhi was afraid of leaking the news in advance, so he didn't reveal the news to his clansmen, but just told a few of his henchmen the news and asked them to cooperate with him.

In order to avoid traitors among his people, he himself wanted to tie up his own people.

Mu Zhi took the soldiers of the Yuanshan Department to tie up the people, and the commander of the Yuanshan Iron Cavalry appeared beside Mu Zhi.

The commander of the Yuanshan Iron Cavalry looked at the silent military tent and said to Mu Zhi: "You go and do your business, and leave this place to me." I'll also leave the matter of contacting Zhu Neng. ”

Mu Zhi nodded and reminded, "Don't forget to report my share of credit to Your Majesty." ”

The commander of the Yuanshan Iron Cavalry nodded lightly, "Naturally, I won't forget, I believe that the official family will not hesitate to reward you." If you are willing, you may be able to go to Bianjing City to be a marquis. ”

When Mu Zhi heard this, the smile on his face was very bright, "Your Majesty promised to make me a marquis, and also promised to return my pasture and clansmen. ”

The commander of the Yuanshan Iron Cavalry pursed his lips disdainfully, "That's all you need?" ”

The smile on Mu Zhi's face froze, and he asked, "What do you mean by this?" ”

The commander of the Yuanshan Iron Cavalry said nonchalantly: "You have betrayed the Horn Guy, and the Horn Guy will definitely not tolerate you." So in the future, in Qingtang, you and Jiaoguo Luo can only live one. ”

Mu Zhi's face sank, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Your Majesty said that he would kill Jiao Guluo." ”

The commander of the Yuanshan Iron Cavalry glanced at Mu Zhi, and said with some hatred: "Since the official family said that they would destroy the Jiaoguoluo, they will definitely destroy the Jiaoguoluo." What I just said means is, since you have already betrayed Kakuro, why don't you betray it completely?

After you eradicate the traitors in your clan, join forces with me, and we will go around Qingtang City together, or go around Xiliang City, and establish one more meritorious service. ”

Mu Zhi's face was cloudy and he said, "I didn't promise Your Majesty to do more things. ”

The commander of the Yuanshan Iron Cavalry glanced at Mu Zhi, and said angrily: "You don't want to be the second leader of Yuanshan?" ”

Mu Zhi was stunned for a moment, and looked at the Yuanshan Iron Cavalry Commander in amazement, his brain was a little short for a while, and he didn't understand the meaning of the Yuanshan Iron Cavalry Commander.

The commander of the Yuanshan Iron Cavalry looked at Mu Zhidao like an idiot: "The Great Song Dynasty can make our leader jump from a horse thief to the lord of a country, and it can also make you from the lord of a part to the lord of a country."

As long as you are loyal enough to the official family and do enough for the official family, the official family can give you everything. ”

Mu Zhi looked at the Yuanshan Iron Cavalry Commander with a look of astonishment.

The commander of the Yuanshan Iron Cavalry said lightly: "As soon as Jiaoguo Luo died, Qingtang, headed by Jiaoguo Luo, fell into a situation where the dragons were leaderless, if we took the opportunity to take Dong Yu, control Dong Yu, control Qingtang, with the support of the Great Song Dynasty, we could replace the name of the king of Jiaoluo Qingtang." ”

Mu Zhi said in a trembling voice: "What do you want from the Yuanshan Department?" ”

Mu Zhi had to admit that he was tempted.

He dared to vote for the Great Song Dynasty and rebelled, which shows that he is a person with some careful thoughts and small ambitions of his own.

Now that he has the opportunity to replace Kagoro, how could he give up.

The reason why he didn't agree was because the people of the Yuanshan Department told him about it, and he had to find out what the people of the Yuanshan Department had for raising this matter.

The commander of the Yuanshan Iron Cavalry heard Mu Zhi's words and hesitated.

Because he just wanted to coax Mu Zhi to go with him to Qingtang or Hexi to drag Jiaoguoluo back, and he didn't really want to help Mu Zhi replace Jiaoguoluo, so he never thought about sharing any benefits from Qingtang.

Mu Zhi asked, and he naturally couldn't answer at all.

Mu Zhi saw that the commander of the Yuanshan Iron Cavalry did not speak for a long time, and his heart began to think crankily.

The commander of the Yuanshan Iron Cavalry weighed the pros and cons, and suddenly spoke, "I want one-third of Qingtang in the Yuanshan Division. The leader of my family doesn't want to be a general, he hopes to become a Yuanshan king recognized by the Great Song Dynasty. ”

When Mu Zhi heard this, the chaotic thoughts that had just floated in his heart disappeared cleanly.

It's good that Motoyamabe helps him have a plan.

What I am most afraid of is that Motoyamabe has no plans.

One-third of the green pond only.

Affordable.

Anyway, he has gone from being the head of a tribe to a king of Qingtang who controls two-thirds of Qingtang's territory, which is already a big profit.

There's no need to be so greedy.

Mu Zhi solemnly stared at the Yuanshan Iron Cavalry Commander and said, "If your Yuanshan Department can help me win the position of Qingtang Zampu, I can promise to give you one-third of Qingtang's territory." ”

The commander of the Yuanshan Iron Cavalry said solemnly: "Then it's decided." But I can't help you much, you have to rely on the Great Song Dynasty more. ”

Mu Zhi nodded and said, "This is natural, after the war in the Western Regions is over, I will send a letter to His Majesty the Emperor of the Great Song Dynasty to show him my loyalty." ”

After discussing the matter, Mu Zhi left this place eagerly, went to the warriors of his own tribe, woke them up, and saw who was willing to join him in the great cause.

The commander of the Wonsan Iron Cavalry stood in place, staring at the silent tents for a few moments, and then returned to the tents and began to write letters.

After he wrote the letter, he was not in a hurry to send it out.

It was not until Mu Zhi finished his busy work and returned to the Chinese army's tent that he sent someone to shoot the letter into Xining City.

After Mu Zhi entered the big tent of the Chinese army, he was very happy, "The warriors of my clan, except for a dozen traitors who married the woman who was married to the horn of the law, everyone else is willing to follow me to overthrow the horn of the dragon. ”

Jiaoguo Luo Neng generously rewarded the warriors of the Amu tribe to Mu Zhi, because after he screened and selected himself, there were still some people who did not obey his control, so he generously gave it back to Mu Zhi.

Due to the questionable loyalty of the Amube warriors who were rewarded, they were not treated very well in Qingtang.

They do the hardest work and eat the worst rations.

Now that they are almost in charge of their own affairs and are their most trusted leaders, they naturally have nothing to hesitate.

After hearing Mu Zhi's words, the commander of the Yuanshan Iron Cavalry nodded with satisfaction and said, "That's good...... Without further ado, we will immediately return to Qingtang City with our soldiers and horses. ”

Mu Zhi nodded excitedly and asked, "How do you divide those cattle, sheep, horses, gold, silver and jewelry in Qingtang City?" ”

The commander of the Yuanshan Iron Cavalry pondered for a moment and said, "Five-five......"

Mu Zhi hesitated for a moment, gritted his teeth happily and said, "Okay!" ”

The commander of the Yuanshan Iron Cavalry glanced at Mu Zhi unexpectedly and said, "You are happy, and I am also happy." After conquering Qingtang City, I can do without being taken prisoner. All those who are in it are yours. ”

Mu Zhi was overjoyed and said with a smile: "Then thank you for the generosity of the commander." ”

The commander of the Yuanshan Iron Cavalry stood up and said, "It's time for us to go." ”

Mu Zhi was stunned for a moment, "The people outside don't care?" ”

The commander of the Yuanshan Iron Cavalry shook his head and said, "Leave it to Zhu Neng to deal with." ”

Mu Zhi hesitated.

The commander of the Yuanshan Iron Cavalry explained: "The strong enemy that we helped the Great Song Dynasty solve without blood was lost to the Great Song Dynasty 150,000 prisoners. Such a great achievement cannot be hidden.

When His Majesty the Emperor of the Great Song Dynasty learned of this, he would also appreciate our courage and wisdom, and know that we were loyal to him.

When the time comes to reward you and me, I will not be stingy. ”

Mu Zhi's eyes lit up, "The commander is really wise...... Wonshan just asked you to be a commander, which is really condescending. ”

The commander of the Yuanshan Iron Cavalry glanced at Mu Zhi and said nothing.

Mu Zhi's words actually revealed a bit of co-optation.

The question is, is the commander of the Wonsan Iron Cavalry so easy to woo?

Their immediate boss couldn't win them over, let alone a little Mu Zhi.

The ten commanders of the Yuanshan Iron Cavalry, all obey Yuanshan's orders, but all are loyal to Kou Ji.

They will only help Wonsan fight, but they will do anything for Kou Ji, including paying for his life.

Yuan Shan is smarter than Mu Zhi, but he is more than a star and a half, and he also has more means than Mu Zhi.

Wonsan can't let them surrender, why should Mu Zhi?

Mu Zhi saw that the commander of the Yuanshan Iron Cavalry did not answer his words, and he was not discouraged, he felt that it might be that his status was not enough, and the commander of the Yuanshan Iron Cavalry looked down on him.

If he becomes the lord of Qingtang, he will recruit the commander of the Yuanshan Iron Cavalry at that time.

The commander of the Yuanshan Iron Cavalry may turn to him.

As long as he gives enough money and high enough status, no one cannot be wooed.

Although the commander of the Yuanshan Iron Cavalry is only a general, some of the insights he said are higher than some of the advisors under the Jiao Guluo, and he is definitely a talent with both civil and military skills.

Mu Zhi felt that such a talent was worth recruiting.

"Without further ado, let's hit the road as soon as possible."

Mu Zhi said with a smile.

The commander of the Yuanshan Iron Cavalry nodded, and went out of the Chinese army's tent with Mu Zhi.

The two of them each gathered their soldiers and horses, and quietly left the outside of Xining City before dawn.

The amount of medicine drunk by the warriors of the Amu tribe was not heavy, and after being woken up by Mu Zhi's cruel toe stepping, they were still dazed, so after getting on the back of the horse one by one, they fell into a deep sleep again.

They just fell asleep on their horses, but when they fell asleep, they didn't fall off their horses.

This seems to be a skill that all the warriors of the steppe have mastered.

The commander of the Yuanshan Iron Cavalry and Mu Zhi took the people away, leaving Zhu Neng's battalion of sleeping men.

Zhu Neng was awakened by someone on the fourth watch, and he held the letter in his hand that came in from outside the city, and read it for a full two quarters of an hour.

There was only one sentence on the letter, and at the end of the letter was written a very unique character Kou.

It was written in a small plum blossom seal, so from a distance, it looked like a plum blossom, and more importantly, it was missing a little on it.

Zhu Neng, who often corresponded with Kou Ji, knew that it was the mark of Kou Mansion.

In order to distinguish it from other Kou surnames, in order to prevent people from pretending to be merchants in the name of Koufu, the head of Koufu specially used the word Kou with a plum blossom seal missing a stroke to mark Koufu.

The fire paint seal that Koji used to seal the envelope is this mark.

So Zhu Neng is very familiar with this mark.

"Zhu Neng...... Out of the city to wash the floor?! ”

Zhu Neng whispered the only sentence on the letter, and muttered, "Washing the floor? Is there a ground outside the city that I want to wash? Outside the city are enemy troops, enemy troops that need to be annihilated. ”

After Zhu Neng muttered a bit, he instructed the personal officials around him, "You send scouts out of the city to see what is happening outside the city." ”

The personal servant agreed, rode his horse to the city wall of Xining City, and sent a few scouts out of the city with hanging baskets to explore the barracks where the Qingtang soldiers lived.

It didn't take long for one and several scouts to return, looking strange.

The pro-servant officer didn't ask anything, and took them directly to Zhu Neng.

Zhu Neng saw the official and the scout appear in his room, so he sat on the seat casually and asked, "What's wrong outside the city?" ”

Several of the scouts looked at each other with strange expressions.

One of the scouts stumbled, "General...... It's hard to say......"

Zhu Neng subconsciously raised his eyebrows and asked, "What's not to say?" ”

The other scout grimaced and said, "General, the villain has been fighting with you for decades, and I haven't seen such a strange scene. ”

Seeing this, Zhu Neng frowned and said, "Say what you see, don't tell Lao Tzu about those useless things." ”

The scouts looked at each other again.

The scout who spoke first smiled bitterly: "Of the more than 200,000 Qingtang soldiers outside the city, 150,000 were turned over by people and tied up with cowhide ropes. The remaining 60,000 or 70,000 Qingtang soldiers were gone. ”

Zhu Neng opened his mouth slightly, stunned.

Not to mention his cronies and scouts, even if he had fought for so many years, he had never seen such a situation in the enemy barracks before the war began.

"General?!"

Just when Zhu Neng was stunned, the official called softly.

Zhu Neng immediately came back to his senses and looked at the official officer.

The officer asked, "General, what should we do now?" ”

Zhu Neng said with mixed feelings: "Since people let us go out to wash the floor, then let's go out to wash the floor." Take the soldiers and horses of the city and go out of the city. ”

The personal servant officer agreed, and went down to order troops.

Zhu Neng sat alone in the room and sighed again and again.

"What are you sending me here for? What are you doing? Look at your ghost tricks?! ”

"I thought that if you transferred me over, I could have a good fight, but before I could make a move, the enemy was gone, and I still didn't use such a strange method."

"No wonder you are not afraid of the Qingtang King's horns...... I'm afraid that half of Qingtang Wangjiaoluo's subordinates are your people, right? How else would you be able to do this? ”

"Jiao Luo Na, when I ran into you, it can be regarded as eight lifetimes of blood mold."

“……”

"Jiaoguoluo, if you are smart enough, run quickly, don't go to Yumen Pass to find excitement. When the time comes, if you don't get hacked to death by that black-hearted person, you will be angry to death. ”

"There is a big gang of people under him, all of whom are the people of that black-hearted guy, how can you fight him?!"

“……”

Zhu Neng sighed for a long time, and the personal servant had already ordered all the soldiers and horses.

Zhu Neng led 30,000 soldiers and horses in Xining City out of Xining City.

After he left Xining City, he did not enter the Qingtang soldiers' barracks first, but sent someone to check the situation in the barracks again, and after confirming that it was correct, he took the soldiers and horses into the Qingtang barracks.

After entering the Qingtang barracks and dismantling all the tents, they saw an unforgettable scene.

The Qingtang soldiers are tied up like zongzi.

Most of them were still asleep, and a small number of Qingtang soldiers had woken up.

Some people were crying in low voices, some were muttering to themselves, and some people were sitting there in a daze, without the slightest sparkle in their eyes.

Obviously, those who sit in a daze are in despair.

Zhu Neng looked at those Qingtang soldiers who were already desperate, and his heart was a little tingling.

Being betrayed by others, betrayed by one's own people, and quietly betrayed by one's own people is a huge blow to anyone.

The despair exuded by those Qingtang soldiers would not be good for anyone who saw it.

Zhu Neng took a deep breath and said, "Surrender their soldiers......"

Halfway through the words, Zhu Neng swallowed back.

He wanted to order his soldiers to disarm, but those Qingtang soldiers had no weapons in their hands at all.

They have been bound to death, and they cannot even move, let alone be bound.

Zhu Neng re-ordered: "Wake them up, take them back, the cooking cakes and mutton soup are full." ”

When Zhu Neng's soldiers heard this, they entered the barracks one after another and woke up the sleeping Qingtang soldiers.

As more and more Qingtang soldiers were awakened, roars, insults, desperate cries, and howls of pain sounded among the Qingtang soldiers.

There is a strong tongue biting suicide.

In addition to the fierce grief and indignation, he crashed into the Great Song Dynasty soldiers.

There were also some fierce ones, with their mouths open, who pounced on the Great Song Dynasty soldiers, making a gesture to bite the Great Song Dynasty soldiers to death.

But those who are strong, after discovering their situation, almost exhaust all kinds of ways to strive for death.

They pounced on the Great Song soldiers, and the Great Song soldiers naturally counterattacked.

They were eventually killed by the swords of the Great Song soldiers.

In the end, more than 10,000 people committed suicide in various ways.

The captives that Zhu Neng brought back to Xining City were only a little more than 130,000.

In this era, under despair, there are countless people who just want to die.

When the Song Dynasty died, the officials, people, and soldiers who were martyred filled the sea, and there was no end in sight.

When Wen Tianxiang was escorted to Yashan and persuaded many ministers of the Song Dynasty to surrender, he witnessed countless officials, people, and soldiers dying for the country, so he wrote the poem "Crossing Zero Ding Yang" to clarify his ambition.

Everyone knows that 'since ancient times, who has not died?' Keep Dan in mind. ’

But few people know how many people's lives are carried by that sweaty heart, and how much it weighs.

After Zhu Neng brought the captives back to Xining City, he did not treat them harshly as he always treated them, but was very kind to them.

But even so, the place where the captives lived was lifeless.

They are still there, but their hearts are dead.

And some are dying, but the ambition is not half worn out.

He is the Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu.

After the Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu led 300,000 soldiers and horses to Youzhou City, he launched an attack on Youzhou City without any hesitation.

For more than 20 days, there was no rest.

During the day, they sent troops to attack the city, and at night as well.

There is no fixed number of soldiers and horses to besiege the city, and there is no fixed number of times to besiege the city.

His purpose is very simple, that is, to make the people in Youzhou City panic, and the people in Youzhou City are in a tense state at all times.

After more than 20 days of non-stop siege, his goal was achieved.

The people in Youzhou City are indeed panicked, and the Great Song Dynasty soldiers in Youzhou City are indeed in a state of mental tension all the time.

But Cao Wei, who he wanted to plan the most, was not affected in the slightest.

After Cao Wei led the army to Youzhou City in Yelu Longxu, he only sat on the head of Youzhou City for one day, and happily handed over the defense of Youzhou City to Gao Zu Gong, who commanded the soldiers and horses to defend the city.

In addition to ensuring a long night's sleep every day, Cao Wei spent the rest of his time either reading the official documents of Feihukou and Dading Mansion, or accompanying Zhao Zhen to play chess, and by the way, visiting some places of interest in Youzhou City.

Not only was the spiritual head not weakened by the frequent toss of Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu, but it also rose a lot.
