Chapter 353: Not Playing Cards According to the Routine (1)
Gu Erha didn't have gunpowder like Wu Zheng in his hands, so if he wanted to block the road with stones, he could only rely on chiseling the boulders on the cliff wall in advance, and then supporting them with wood to stabilize them, and then pull down the wood after his own people passed, so that the boulders would fall down and block the road.
This method looks stupid, but it is completely feasible to put it in this double jump gorge, because the double jump gorge is not wide, and it is difficult for two groups of horses to run in parallel, so the boulders needed do not need too many two or three pieces to complete, and a canyon can be blocked if they fall.
Songtsan Gaoji's pursuers want to move these two or three boulders away, but it is more troublesome, because they can't hold up the working surface in the first line, and they can only enter at most two people at a time, and it takes at least three to dig up the boulders?
It is faster to go around the edge of this mountain than to excavate the boulder, because it only takes half a way to reach it under the fast horse.
And half a time is enough for Gu'er Halai, in his opinion, half a time is enough to cut off the head of Mazan who is blocking his retreat to complete the contract with Ye Dongcheng, so as to obtain the fat pasture on the shore of the Kazier Sea.
Passing through the double jumping gorge on the opposite side is the red stone forest, whenever the wind blows from the middle, it will make a whining ghost cry inside, so the locals also call this place the ghost crying forest, this is not a suitable place for the army to fight, but after this stone forest there will be a wasteland of five or six miles, if Mazan and Murong Jing will really wait for themselves on the retreat, then that wasteland is undoubtedly the most ideal place.
"Quick, let's go home when we kill Mazan."
Gu Erha was urging everyone to hurry up all the way, and 10,000 horses rushed into the chaotic stone forest like a flood, and then disappeared into the stone forest like a forest
Mazan was already impatient to wait here in the wasteland, before he only had his own six thousand personal guards, he could still wait here quietly, but since his Lao Tzu gave him another five thousand iron horses, this guy can't sit still now.
Because this time he has 11,000 horsemen in his hand, which is equivalent to the number of Guerha he learned, where can Mazan, who wants to make meritorious contributions, still sit, you must know that Mazan is a person who is destined to inherit the throne of Khan, but if such a person does not have a little military merit in his hand, how can this be convincing?
Although their second uncle Zatai had braided his hair, he also had great military achievements during his lifetime, and his second uncle Murong Jing did not need it, even if his father had a record of fighting the Uighurs and the Zhou State when he was the prince.
As far as he Mazan is almost thirty years old, he still has nothing to do, and this is not that he Mazan is just a straw bag, but the people around him are too strong, and he finally waited for a surprise attack on the royal capital by Youwuwei, and was cut off by the guy in Ye Dongcheng.
So when Mazan got his Lao Tzu's 5,000 iron horsemen, the first thing he did was to rush into the north wind to dry the dead bones, and use his big head to earn qualifications for himself.
But fortunately, there is a strategist like Teng Cangkong, and he was not allowed to do such a stupid thing, the terrain in the north wind outlet is complicated, and it is not suitable for cavalry to fight, and it is the wind season so rashly to send troops to the north wind mouth, a careless one may end up with the whole army being wiped out.
Then again, if this matter is really as simple as Mazan thinks, why didn't he do it himself? Even if he is an old man, what about his third uncle Murong Jing?
None of these two old foxes do anything, you stupid roe deer to join in the fun.
Mazan was tender in front of Murong Jing and them, but fortunately, he listened to the persuasion, and Teng Cangkong advised him not to act rashly, even if he wanted to help the Great Khan annihilate the Uighurs, then he would have to wait until the wind stopped.
Although Mazan was unwilling, he still agreed, and now that he finally waited for the wind to stop, he was naturally the first to enter.
11,000 iron horsemen lined up on the wasteland, it was like a thick city wall, and the wind swept the dust and sand, and the iron horses stood still.
"I don't think it's a way for us to wait here, Mr. Teng, or let's go in and take a look!" I'm always worried about my husband. ”
As if he had hemorrhoids, Mazan couldn't sit still on horseback for a moment.
Teng Cangkong didn't answer immediately, but turned his head to look at the left side of the wasteland, where Murong Jing was stationed, but now it was quiet.
"It's right that the prince is worried about the Great Khan, but as the crown prince, he still focuses on the overall situation."
"The big picture? Isn't it the big picture to help my father Khan exterminate the group of Uighurs who don't know whether they are alive or dead? ”
Teng Cangkong pointed in Murong Jing's direction and said, "Has the prince ever thought about it, what if the Hugurs came this time because of His Royal Highness King Zuo?" ”
"My second uncle?" Mazan was stunned for a moment, and then asked rhetorically: "Aren't you all ghosts who fell from Ye Dongcheng this time?" Why are you starting to suspect my second uncle again? ”
"Has His Royal Highness the Crown Prince never doubted it in his heart?"
"But it's yours!"
"Although the existing evidence points to Ye Dongcheng everywhere, in addition to Ye Dongcheng, we are also facing His Royal Highness King Zuo, he is as wise as a demon, and sometimes even if he sees it with his own eyes, he may not be able to see it with his own eyes. Until things are completely clear, let's make more preparations, and there is nothing wrong with that.
Just like now, if the crown prince goes to the aid of Khan, and His Royal Highness the Zuo King takes the opportunity to cover up and kill from behind, has His Royal Highness the crown prince ever thought about the consequences? ”
Mazan was stunned for a moment, and then said: "How many people is he, what can he do?" ”
Teng Cangkong said: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, don't forget that this is a hunting ground, what are the rules of the hunting ground?" Those with more people may not necessarily win, and those with fewer people may not lose. The crown prince can also think about it, why did the Khan send you an additional 5,000 iron cavalry after learning that you were rushing to the north wind? Who is the Great Khan guarding against? ”
"So what are we going to do here?"
"What's the harm of waiting?"
"It's always very unwilling!"
Teng Cangkong said: "If the prince is unwilling, we might as well retreat." ”
"Retreat?" Mazan looked at Teng Cangkong and said, "Mr. Teng, you're not kidding!" If you don't let me in, forget it, you still tell me to go back? ”
Teng Cangkong said with a smile: "Your subordinates don't dare to joke with the prince, has His Royal Highness the prince ever thought about what is the purpose of Ye Dongcheng bringing the Uighurs?" ”
"Mr. Teng, didn't you just go with me as a Uighur, and the Uighurs were my second uncle? Why has it become Ye Dongcheng again? ”
"Doesn't Your Highness understand it now? Whoever brought the Uighurs here is now just a conjecture about us, and even if we have evidence in our hands, who knows if it was deliberately given to us by His Royal Highness King Zuo? ”
"So what does this have to do with us going back now?"
Teng Cangkong said: "If the Uighurs were brought by Ye Dongcheng, then who is the person Ye Dongcheng wants to kill the most?" ”
Mazan thought for a while and smiled: "The person he wants to kill the most should be my second uncle!" As far as our whole Tugu Hun is concerned, my second uncle is most similar to him, with a Zhou Rao face, and he is the best candidate to replace him. ”
Teng Cangkong nodded, and then asked, "If the Uighurs were recruited by His Royal Highness King Zuo, then who is the person he wants to kill the most?" ”
Mazan said angrily: "Is this still useful? Except for my father, Khan, who is the crown prince, there will be no third person. ”
Teng Cangkong smiled: "In that case, then let's take a step back and see who the first person the Uighurs are looking for after coming out of the north wind, don't we know who got this person?" ”
"Mr. Teng, are you one of those Uighurs who have the ability to break out of my father Khan's army of 20,000?"
"The terrain in the north wind mouth is complicated, and he will definitely not be able to beat the Great Khan, but if he wants to escape, the Great Khan may not be able to keep them if he is disrespectful."
Mazan was silent for a moment, and couldn't help but nod and said, "That makes sense." ”
"If the crown prince agrees to the proposal, he might as well go and change the flag with His Royal Highness King Zuo."
"Change the flag? Why? ”
"This group of Uighurs can come to Black Bear Ridge thousands of miles away, and they come so quietly, this can be their internal person, Ye Dongcheng doesn't seem to have this ability."
Ma Zan couldn't help but laugh when he heard it: "Mr. Teng wants them to kill each other?" But I'm afraid that my second uncle and Ben won't agree! ”
"If he doesn't agree, then it will be clear that he is a thief with a weak heart, and we can just use the army to capture him in one fell swoop, and the crime is to communicate with foreign enemies, even if he is the prince, it is also a capital crime. However, with Zaixia's understanding of His Royal Highness King Zuo, he will never show his feet in this kind of thing. ”
Mazan smiled and said, "In that case, then it doesn't hurt for us to try." ”
After finishing Mazan, he couldn't wait to take his army of 10,000 to kill Murong Jing, and now he was already looking forward to seeing how wonderful his second uncle's face was after seeing him.
In Murong Jing's tent, he was sitting in the big tent drinking tea, planning to sit here and watch his eldest brother's family fight to the death with the Uighurs in front of his eyes.
But soon his good mood was disturbed by the yellow line that rose from the horizon.
"Wu Kui, what's going on?"
He naturally saw the dust and smoke raised by Mazan's 10,000-strong iron horsemen, why did the prince kill him, what did he want to do? And I didn't get any news beforehand!
Just when Wu Kui didn't know how to answer Murong Jing, Murong Jing suddenly smiled again: "It seems that Teng Cangkong is not a bad person, he really has two brushes." Wu Kui prepared our royal flag, and my nephew came to us to change the royal flag this time. ”
"Change the king's flag? What does this mean, Your Highness? ”
Murong Jing sighed, "My nephew still suspects that the Uighurs were recruited by this king!" But he forgot about this traitor to the enemy, and the Red Lotus Sect in Ye Dongcheng had already been familiar with it. But that's fine, since he wants to change it, let's change it for him, anyway, what Ye Dongcheng wants to kill the most is this king, he came to exchange the king flag with us just to prevent us from disasters, and it can also prove how bright and upright this king is, why don't we do it? ”
"Your Highness is wise!"
"Go ahead! We don't have a lot of people right now, so it wouldn't be good if I had to keep my nephew waiting. 166 Reading Network
