Chapter 849: A Cloud-Piercing Arrow!
The Nine Commanders of the Yuanshan Iron Cavalry, you and I are talking one sentence at a time.
Yuan Shan suddenly felt a little headache, he rubbed his eyebrows, "Forget it, don't talk about it." How many people the young master has rebelled against will be exposed after this battle, and we will all know when the time comes. ”
When the Nine Commanders of Yuanshan Iron Cavalry heard Yuanshan's words, they instantly closed their mouths.
Wonshan continued: "At the moment, we need to pay more attention to the battle in Yangguan. Just now I went to the big tent of the Chinese army to discuss matters, and An Ziluo proposed to use those Song people we caught on the way to force Di Qing and Chen Yaoshi in Yangguan to come out and fight with us. ”
"An Ziluo should be damned!"
"If you dare to force our people to fight, it is not a pity for him to die."
“……”
The nine commanders of the Yuanshan Iron Cavalry spoke one after another, and An Ziluo was indignant.
Yuan Shan glanced at them and said a little weakly, "Now is not the time to talk about this. ”
The Nine Commanders of the Yuanshan Iron Cavalry closed their mouths again, but there was a hint of anger on their faces.
Yuan Shan said in a deep voice: "Once An Ziluo sends those Song people to Yangguan to force the battle, Di Qing and Chen Yaozhi must make a choice. If they hold out and let the people shout, then we will do nothing.
If they come out, then we won't be able to do it. ”
When a Yuanshan Iron Cavalry Commander heard this, he said angrily: "What are we not doing well? directly counter the water, and accompany them to kill the Qingtang people. ”
Yuan Shan glared at him and said, "Don't forget the instructions that the young master gave us. With the arrow as the number, I saw the arrow and then turned back the water. You can't see the arrow, you can't do anything.
Even if the Qingtang people slaughtered my Song people, we couldn't move.
If they don't give the order, we can't do anything.
You even have to rush up and fight them to the death. ”
The faces of the Wonsan Iron Cavalry Commanders became a little ugly.
"Brothers cannibalism?!"
"Wouldn't they be so stupid that they don't let go of the arrow when it matters?"
“……”
Yuan Shan glanced at them and said in a deep voice, "For us, they are our own people. For them, whether we are our own people or not is still to be verified, and our identities cannot be made public, so they will eventually have a little doubt about us.
So whether they will release the arrows at a critical time, no one can say. ”
The commanders of the Yuanshan Iron Cavalry glanced at each other, and someone spoke: "They don't let go of the arrows, do we really want to fight them?" ”
Someone nodded and said, "They are not weak, and neither are we." The two tigers will fight each other, and it will be very tragic at that time. Either they are crippled by us, or we are crippled by them.
It is not good for anyone, it only cheapens the enemy. ”
Wonsan sighed and said, "That's why I said, if they don't give the order, it will be difficult for us to do it." ”
"Or ...... Send someone to remind ......"
“……”
"No way!"
Yuanshan decisively refused, "For Qingtang people, we are always an outsider. In the barracks, they won't care about us. But if we send someone out of the barracks, they will notice something strange and send someone to follow them.
When the time comes, we will be easily exposed. ”
"What are you afraid of, there are only our soldiers and Kruid's soldiers and horses here right now. Cruy is our own people. Then the soldiers and horses here are all their own people. The only outsiders are him, An Ziluo, and his own soldiers.
If he really found out, we just killed him with his backhand, ended this battle, and then rushed to Yumen Pass to clean up Jiaoluo. ”
A Wonsan Iron Cavalry Commander said with a big grin.
As soon as these words came out, everyone in the tent was stunned.
Since Cruyi is his own people, the soldiers and horses who attacked Yangguan this time, except for the Liao soldiers and An Ziluo's personal soldiers, the rest are their own people.
It doesn't matter if you fight or not, just clean up An Ziluo.
Hearing this, Yuanshan glanced at the commander of the Yuanshan Iron Cavalry who spoke, and said, "Things are not as simple as you think. If I'm not mistaken, Cruy took refuge in the Great Song and didn't tell his soldiers.
Therefore, no one can say whether those soldiers under him will rebel against Qingtang with him.
If he had told his soldiers earlier, and his soldiers had promised him to go out of Qingtang with him, then he would not have come to me at this time.
He will definitely look for me on our way to Yangguan, and then conspire with me to capture An Ziluo, and then lead his troops to poke Jiaoluo's eyes.
You don't have to wait until now to contact me. ”
As soon as Yuanshan's words came out, the Yuanshan Iron Cavalry commanders closed their mouths one after another.
Because they feel that what Wonsan said may be the truth.
Seeing that they were silent, Wonshan continued: "Kruy must fight a battle, and through the war, those who are willing to join him against Qingtang will be screened. ”
The Wonshan Iron Cavalry Commanders pondered and nodded.
What Wonsan guessed should be inseparable from the truth.
Otherwise, there is no way to explain Cruid's actions.
Yuanshan continued: "Therefore, the war still has to be fought, and it has to be cooperated. ”
Speaking of this, Yuanshan stared at the commander of the Nine Yuanshan Iron Cavalry and said solemnly: "Once the war breaks out, we will act at the opportunity." If Di Qing and Chen Yaozhi don't give the order, then we have to attack.
After we attacked, we tried to avoid going toe-to-toe with them.
If you can fight, you will fight, and if you can't fight, you will retreat on the grounds of preserving your strength.
When An Ziluo wants to ask, I will go and tell him. ”
Hearing this, the Nine Great Yuanshan Iron Cavalry Commanders nodded in unison.
After Yuanshan discussed with the commander of the Nine Yuanshan Iron Cavalry, An Ziluo's side was ready, and sent someone to urge Yuanshan to lead the troops to attack.
Yuanshan instructed the commander of the nine Yuanshan Iron Cavalry to say a few words, and then came out of the tent.
The commanders of the Nine Yuanshan Iron Cavalry returned to their respective armies, gathered their soldiers and horses, and left the barracks.
Yang Kanto, the head of the city.
After the enemy soldiers retreated, Di Qing and Chen Yaozhi got together and were discussing the future battle.
saw the comeback of the Qingtang soldiers.
The two immediately entered a state of alert.
Di Qing was about to return to Yangguanxi to sit in the town, but just after walking a few steps, he heard Chen Yaozhi shouting: "Wait, don't go to the west of the city first, there is something wrong with the actions of the Qingtang people." ”
Di Qing stopped, returned to Chen Yaozhi's side, and accompanied Chen Yaozhi to watch the military formation outside the city.
They saw hundreds of people crying and being driven forward, and the Qingtang soldiers and horses followed closely behind, and kept shooting arrows at the feet of those people, forcing them to continue to advance.
Di Qing and Chen Yaozhi saw this and glanced at each other.
"It's our Song people!"
Chen Yaozhi said with an ugly face.
Di Qing said angrily: "They actually used such a means to find death." ”
Chen Yaozhi said with a gloomy face: "They should have felt the power of our firearms and were unwilling to fight us head-on, so they sent people to force us to go out and engage them in close combat under the city." ”
When Di Qing heard this, he gritted his teeth and said nothing.
If Chen Yaozhi can see it, he can naturally see it.
It's just that now that they rely on firearms, they can't crush the enemy, so there is no need to go out and fight with the enemy.
Because they stick to Yangguan, they win steadily.
If you go out of the city to fight with the enemy, you may be pinned down by the enemy, lose your troops, and even lose Yangguan.
So it's the wisest choice to keep the sun right now.
Although An Ziluo forced hundreds of Song people to come over, Di Qing could pretend not to see.
Tzu is not in charge of the army.
Sacrificing the lives of a few for the sake of the lives of the majority can be seen everywhere on the battlefield.
"Maybe you can go out of town and give it a try......"
Chen Yaozhi suddenly spoke.
Di Qing raised his eyebrows, "They must have made preparations to attack the city, and if they go out now, they will be given a chance." ”
Chen Yaozhi hesitated: "Their opportunity may not be our opportunity. Don't forget, there are some of us among them.
Now this situation happens to be an excellent situation to test them.
I'll lead people out to fight, and you take the opportunity to release the arrows.
If there are any of us among them, they can take the opportunity to turn the tide and deal with the enemy with us.
You might be able to crush your enemies in one fell swoop.
If not, we will retreat back to the city with our men and horses, and then you will have the enemy blocked by muskets and artillery at the top of the city, so as to buy me a chance to flee back into the city.
We only need to pay a small amount of troops.
Once we find out that there is no one among the enemy who does not have us, we will not have to think about it anymore, and we can meet the enemy with all our might. ”
Chen Yaozhi said the tactic of taking advantage of the situation and taking the opportunity to probe it, and Di Qing's heart was also moved.
If Kou Ji hadn't deceived him and Chen Yao, and the people of the Yuanshan Department hadn't really rebelled against the Great Song Dynasty, then this move by the Qingtang people would be an excellent opportunity for them.
A chance to wipe out the enemy in one fell swoop.
Di Qing's eyes lit up slightly, "If the people of the Yuanshan Department are really our own people, we can take advantage of the situation to sweep away the Qingtang soldiers, and then lead them into the city, change the city defense, pretend that Yangguan is breached, and then the Liao soldiers come in and annihilate them in one fell swoop."
In this way, the siege of Yangguan was solved. ”
Chen Yaozhi nodded and said, "Not bad......"
After a pause, Chen Yaozhi added, "But don't have too much hope." If the people of Motoyamabe are not our own, then we may have to fight the enemy for a long time afterwards. ”
Di Qing laughed and said, "We have been prepared for a fierce battle with the enemy for a long time, so the worst outcome is no different from our preparation, so I will not suffer from gains and losses." ”
Chen Yaozhi nodded slowly, "That's good......"
"But ......"
"But what?"
Chen Yaozhi stared at Di Qing and asked.
Di Qing said solemnly: "It should be me who goes out of the city to fight, not you." ”
When Chen Yaozhi heard this, he was instantly unhappy, "What? Do you look down on me, think I'm old, not as strong as you, not as good as your martial arts, and can't move?
Can't rush to kill? ”
Chen Yao said indignantly: "I gave up the opportunity to be ranked in the political hall only one step away, and joined the army, in order to fight on the battlefield.
I have been in Yongzhou for many years, and I have not touched a single enemy.
Now that I have arrived in Hexi, I finally have the opportunity to fight with the enemy, but you don't let me go.
Believe it or not, I'm going to turn against you. ”
Di Qing looked at where Chen Yaozhi was shouting indignantly, and he didn't know what to say.
Before Chen Yaozhi joined the army, he was the prefect of Kaifeng Prefecture.
has been ranked as an important minister in the court.
And the general prefect of Kaifeng Prefecture is almost always in the position of the prime minister.
Those who have almost served as the governor of Kaifeng Prefecture, as long as they have not made any mistakes during their tenure, or have not been opposed by others, can almost all serve as governors in the future.
The arrangement of the Great Song Dynasty in the positions of the Yamen of Kaifeng Mansion is very interesting.
First of all, the prefect of Kaifeng Prefecture is generally the prince.
The prefect of Kaifeng Prefecture is generally the prime minister.
This means that once the prince succeeds to the throne, the three ministers in the center are likely to be acquaintances who have served under him.
In this way, it will be much easier to change power and hand over power.
It will also be easier for the new monarch to take the throne and gather power.
Therefore, Zhao Kuangyin is definitely well-intentioned when customizing this rule.
It's just that, so far, only Zhao Heng has used it alone in the previous official families of the Great Song Dynasty.
The prefect of Kaifeng Mansion before Zhao Heng failed to inherit the throne smoothly.
Zhao Heng died too early, Zhao Zhen was young and had not yet left the cabinet, so he had not served as the prefect of Kaifeng Prefecture.
Therefore, there have always been variables for the prince to change from the prefect of Kaifeng Mansion to the true monarch.
However, the prefect of Quankaifeng Prefecture has changed from the prime minister to the truth, and there are not many variables, and it has been implemented.
Therefore, Chen Yao's claim that he is only one step away from the position of prime minister is not an exaggeration, but a fact.
It can be seen that he is really willing to be a military minister, not a civil minister.
But even though he wanted to kill the enemy on the battlefield so much, wanted to fight the enemy in close combat so much, and made great sacrifices for this, Di Qing was still unwilling to let him take risks on the battlefield.
Chen Yaozhi is now sixty years old, with white spots on both sides and a completely white beard.
It is not an exaggeration to describe it as old age and frailty.
He rushed out to fight, and it was estimated that he would not be able to fight with people for a few rounds, and he would be physically exhausted.
When the time comes, it is easy to be beheaded.
So Di Qing was reluctant to let him take risks.
Di Qing stared at the indignant Chen Yao and said, "Your martial arts have reached the realm of transformation, I am not qualified to doubt it."
On the contrary, I, my martial arts are not exquisite, and I need to go to the battlefield to hone it, and then you can see what flaws there are that need to be repaired. ”
Chen Yaozhi glared at Di Qing, "Don't tell me these nice things." When it comes to sycophancy, you can't compare to me with ten. I have to go to this battle. ”
Di Qing glanced at Chen Yaozhi, sighed and said, "Then you will stay even more." ”
Chen Yaozhi blew his beard and glared at Di Qing to argue, but he heard Di Qing say faintly, "Don't forget, in this Yang Pass, you are the second, and I am the master, so you have to listen to me." ”
Chen Yaozhi was speechless for a moment.
Above the officialdom, there is no martial arts, and the weight of the primary and secondary is very heavy.
A chief officer, when doing things, the deputy officer who is pressed can't raise his head.
That's how the so-called officials crush people to death.
Such rules are even more important on the battlefield.
On the battlefield, the commander-in-chief's orders are military orders, and there is no room for quibbles or discussions.
Military orders are like mountains, and if they are spoken, they can only be carried out to the end.
There is no room for negotiation.
Therefore, Di Qing used his identity as the chief official to suppress Chen Yaozhi, and Chen Yaozhi couldn't do anything except blow his beard and stare at him.
"The old man thinks that you just don't fight, on the battlefield, if you dare to blow your beard and stare at the chief officer, you should be beheaded and sacrificed."
Li Di didn't know when he went to the city, and stood behind the two of them in a quiet way.
Di Qing saw Li Di and bowed slightly.
Chen Yaozhi was not polite at all, and glared at Li Di, "You old thing came here to do something, is this the place where you can come?"
If a cold arrow flies over and kills you all at once, then you will die too miserably, and it is estimated that you will stink before your son collects your body. ”
Li Di rolled his eyes and said angrily: "The dog can't spit out ivory from his mouth." ”
Chen Yaozhi said unceremoniously: "That's better than you, a bed bug that is scared everywhere." ”
Li Di glared at Chen Yaozhi, too lazy to argue with Chen Yaozhi again.
Because there is no advantage.
Identity, background, family background, knowledge, force, and bickering, Li Di can't compare to Chen Yaozhi.
The Chen family has three masters, three masters, and three princes.
The Li family has one door and one male.
The gap is obvious.
Li Di is eight years old, and he is rich and has five cars.
More importantly, it was under the persuasion and persecution of his mother that Chen Yaozhi learned his favorite art of war and martial arts, and devoted himself to studying knowledge.
In other words, learning is not his favorite.
In the field that people don't like, they can be on par with Li Di.
Li Di is more knowledgeable than others, so he naturally has no advantage.
than the mouth, the mouth of the mouth is in a hurry, it is to do it.
Li Di's little martial arts, bullying and bullying Ding Wei is okay.
Do it with Chen Yao, Chen Yaozhi can beat him a group.
Therefore, Li Di knew that he was not dominant, so he decisively stopped bickering.
After Li Di walked to his side, Di Qing asked the same doubts as Chen Yaozhi, "Gong Li, you are not in the city with you, what are you doing here?" It's dangerous here! ”
Li Di's face turned slightly cold, and he said, "The old man heard that someone was taking the people of my Hexi as hostages, so he came up to take a look." ”
As he spoke, Li Di's gaze had already fallen on the outside of the city.
Seeing the Qingtang people driving those people like animals, Li Di's face became even colder.
"Fighting, that is the duty of the soldiers, it has nothing to do with implicating the people, it should be killed."
Di Qing spoke: "We already have a plan. It should save those people. ”
Li Di was silent for a long time, gritted his teeth slightly, and said: "If you can save it, you can save it, and if you can't save it, forget it." There were more people in the city. ”
Di Qing nodded and said, "I'll try ......."
Chen Yao shouted: "You are not finished, the enemy is almost at the head of the city, if you continue to talk, the enemy will go up to the city wall." ”
Di Qing immediately stopped talking to Li Di, turned back to Chen Yao and said, "You are guarding here and issuing orders." I'll take 10,000 people out to meet them. ”
Chen Yaozhi pursed his lips, and he was not qualified to fight with Di Qing to leave the city again.
After the matter was decided, Di Qing did not hesitate, immediately got off the city wall, ordered 10,000 soldiers and horses, and rushed out of Yangguan.
Outside the Yangguan.
An Ziluo saw the opening of the Yangguan Gate, and Di Qing rushed out with 10,000 soldiers and horses, with a bright smile on his face.
"Hahaha...... It's a big deal......"
After laughing, An Ziluo turned his head sideways and smiled at Yuan Shan, who was walking side by side beside him, and said, "I didn't expect Di Qing to be so stupid, he would rush out of the city gate to meet us for the sake of these hundreds of people." ”
Yuan Shan looked solemn, glared at An Ziluo unceremoniously, and said in a stiff tone: "His move is very stupid in terms of military affairs.
But as an official of the Great Song Dynasty, he was able to come out to save the people who fell into our hands regardless of his own life and death, and his behavior is worthy of admiration.
We should not be sarcastic about him.
Think about it, if one day, we end up in the same fate as those Song people who were captured by us, who will save us? ”
The smile on An Ziluo's face disappeared in an instant, not only did he lose his smile, but he even had some disgust for Yuan Shan, and he said nonchalantly: "Ci is not in charge of the army, this is the simplest truth." For the sake of hundreds of people, he disregarded the safety of the people in Yangguan, which was stupid. ”
Yuanshan had a cold face and did not reason with An Ziluo.
After seeing Di Qing leading 10,000 horses across the rope bridge, An Ziluo decisively said to Yuanshan beside him: "Leader of Yuanshan, you should take your people to attack."
As long as you entangle them and make them unable to retreat back into the pass, I will have a chance to lead other soldiers and horses into Yangguan. ”
Yuanshan glanced at An Ziluo, and immediately ordered the commander of the Nine Yuanshan Iron Cavalry under his hand, "Prepare to attack!" ”
The commander of the Yuanshan Iron Cavalry led the 10,000 Yuan Mountain Iron Cavalry, all of whom put on heavy armor and turned into heavy armor horses.
10,000 heavily armored riders, standing neatly there, giving people a sense of slaughter.
An Ziluo stared at Yuanshan Tieqi several times.
Known as the strongest heavy armor rider in the Western Regions, it is indeed very strong.
Compared with the heavy armor horse established by Qingtang's secret, it is only strong and not weak.
Yuan Shan didn't care about Jiao Guluo's gaze, he stared at Di Qing who was rushing towards them, as well as the 10,000 Great Song cavalry, and slowly raised his hand.
The Nine Yuanshan Iron Cavalry Commanders put their hands on the hilt of their swords, glanced at each other, and sighed in unison.
So far, the other party has not yet issued an arrow.
Once they rushed out and formed a momentum of charging, even if the other party was the starting arrow, it would be difficult for them to turn back for a while, and when the time came, they would inevitably collide with Di Qing and Di Qing's soldiers and horses.
Wonsan frowned, and his hand fell down with difficulty.
The Motoyama Iron Rider had slowly crouched on his horse, ready to charge.
Suddenly.
"Bang!"
There was an explosion.
An arrow that looked like a monkey soared into the sky.
The thick smoke and dust that erupted from behind the arrow instantly appeared in everyone's field of vision.
Yuanshan's pupils shrank and he roared, "Beautiful! ”
He was shouting frantically in his heart, the person with the arrow was too smart, and the timing was too accurate.
An Ziluo was startled by Wonsan's sudden shout.
Seeing the smoke and dust rising from the head of Yangguan City, Yuan Shan shouted beautifully.
An Ziluo's heart was almost shocked out at once.
In an instant, he realized that there was something wrong with Wonsan.
He immediately looked sideways at Wonsan.
As soon as he turned his head sideways, a snowy sword light appeared in front of him.
An Ziluo hurriedly dodged and almost fell off his horse.
While slashing An Ziluo, Yuanshan shouted to the Yuanshan Iron Rider behind him, "What are you waiting for, kill this group of Qingtang dogs for Lao Tzu!" ”
Yuanshan Tieqi didn't say a word, picked up the knife and slashed at the Qingtang soldiers beside him.
An Ziluo dodged Yuanshan's slashing while staring at Yuanshan and roared, "Yuanshan! How dare you betray my king! ”
