Chapter 444: A Letter to the Tang Emperor
When night fell, inside and outside Yongtai City, there was jubilation.
Xie Wan was about to leave the north, and in addition to the three provinces, the plan to recruit the people of Qin as soldiers had to wait for the imperial court to approve, so the Wei army had a rare rest.
Farewell Xie Wan tonight, all the troops added dinner, and most of the sergeants were given a small glass of liquor, and several of the generals even got most of the jars, gathered around the banquet outside Xie Wan's tent, shouting and clinking glasses.
"General Xie, I respect you, as a female general to guard the northern land, the Northern Tule clan almost compares you to a military god like a prince, and we are only General Xie Wan alone."
Wang Si held the big bowl and said, the bowl swayed, and the wine kept splashing out.
Next to him, Zhao Wu looked unhappy: "I said fourth, can you be careful, even if you are not good at drinking, there is good wine here for the brothers, as long as you put it down, my old Zhao will be the first to drink it clean." ”
Cao Hua urged: "Hurry up and drink it, the spicy liquor of the dead, what is there to drink, it is better to keep it for the wounded to clean the wounds, it is really a waste." ”
Su Yun next to him took a small sip, and said with joy in his tone:
"Everyone has love, and the taste is still okay, although it is mixed with a little more water."
Xie Wan drank all the contents of the bowl with a smile, put down the bowl, and said indifferently.
"The princess is right, some people love their family and country, some people love good fields and beautiful houses, and some people love beautiful women like jade, this is barely possible."
Qian Buzhou next to him raised the bowl over: "General Xie, this farewell, I don't know when we can see each other again, I will drink this cup full, and the general is at will." ”
Qian Buzhou lifted the bowl and drank it all.
Xie Wan smiled, filled her bowl again, and drank it all.
There were bursts of cheers around, and the leg of lamb and pork roasted on the bonfire began to drip oil, and the smell of fragrant meat spread, and the smell of barbecued meat was everywhere.
Su Yun took a leg of mutton handed over by Xie Wan, tore off a piece of meat carefully, and ate it slowly.
Xie Wan was the same, tearing off the flesh of the locks and speaking slowly.
"Princess, after I go, this war in the south, I have to worry about the princess, remind the prince more, the barbarians are powerful, we still focus on recuperation, and a temporary battle is inevitable, but if it continues to fight for a long time, it will not be beneficial to my Han country."
"I also hope that the prince will put the people of the Han Kingdom first, and when it is time to let go, he must let go."
Su Yun chewed a piece of mutton and said helplessly: "It's useless for you to tell me about this, my brother can be called the god of the army, naturally it is not something that ordinary people can control, besides, this battle is not what we want to fight." ”
Xie Wan sighed and bowed her head slightly: "I hope that the prince can be like the name of this god of war, and he will always win and be undefeated." ”
"By the way, what about the prince?"
Xie Wan looked around, but didn't see Su Lu's figure, so she couldn't help but ask strangely.
Such a lively scene, why don't you see the prince.
In the tent of the Chinese army, Su Lu is writing a book.
Lu Zhan came in and said: "Commander, the banquet outside General Xie's tent has been going on for an hour, if you don't go, I'm afraid it will be dispersed." ”
"Scattered, dispersed."
Su Lu said without raising her head, Xie Wan was mild-mannered, and she couldn't get used to Cao Hua slaughtering the captives all the way, and it was difficult to persuade her to change her strategy, so her departure was inevitable.
"What is the movement of the Tang army, the barbarians have entered the Tang land, I heard that the fight is good, the Tang army has lost its armor, and the casualties are not counted. This is also a good thing, we can't always be allowed to fight with the barbarians, let us suffer losses. ”
Lu Zhan said cautiously beside him: "This time the Tang Kingdom seems to be a bit miserable, most of the Sanchong Jiedu Mansion was captured by the barbarians, and most of the Shangshan Jiedu Mansion was lost, and what is even more outrageous is the Dongting Jiedu Mansion, and the battle with the barbarians turned out to be a one-touch collapse, and most of the cities in the Eastern Court have been lost." Now the three combined armies seem to have besieged the barbarians to the left of Shangshan.
Su Lu nodded, folded the letter in his hand, put it in a bag, and commanded.
"Find a few people who are familiar with the terrain, send this letter to Gao Ran, and exchange Shangshan Jiedu Mansion for our army to send troops to defeat the barbarians in the Tang Kingdom and recover the lost border lands of the Tang Kingdom."
Lu Zhan couldn't believe it: "How is this possible, Lord Wang, unless Gao Ran loses his mind and goes crazy, he will agree to use Shangshan in exchange for our Han army to exterminate the barbarians." ”
Wang Fang, the guard next to him, said with a smile: "This is not necessarily, the Tang army lacks famous generals who can determine the situation, and the battle with the barbarians is also repeated defeats. ”
"Our lord, out of the town of Liaoxi, just a month's effort, beat the barbarians to cry dad and call mother. According to Gao Ran's temperament, if he knew the strength of the prince, he might really bow down to the prince. ”
Lu Zhan looked incredulous.
When Su Lu had finished his orders, he put on his robe and walked out of the tent.
Xie Wan is an old robe who has been with her partner for so many years, if she doesn't send it, it will be difficult for this person to bring it in the future. “
Su Lu walked out of the tent of the Chinese army, and when he arrived outside the tent of Xie Wan's camp, he saw the generals who were drinking together.
"The Governor Guards Your Step"
Wang Fang behind him reminded him, and an arrow stepped up, blocking Su Lu.
Only then did Su Lu notice that one had already been lying on the ground, obviously drinking too much.
Su Lu instructed a few guards to drag the drunkard on the ground away, walked to the wine table, chose a stool to sit down, and raised the wine bowl.
[00ks] "General Xie, I salute you a bowl, go to the Northland, be careful in everything, protect your own safety, no matter what happens, you must protect your own safety first." ”
Xie Wan drank the wine in the bowl in one gulp, and looked at Su Lu's back, her cheeks full of doubts.
The four royal courts of Tule surrendered one after another, and Rouran was far west of the Western Royal Court, even if they wanted to attack the Han Kingdom, they had to pass through the land of the Western Royal Court first.
It seems that he still thinks too much, and not every word the prince says has a deep meaning.
A few days later, the Tang Kingdom.
Wangjia Town, the Tang Army Shangshan Jiedu Mansion Station.
Gao Ran looked at the letterhead placed on the table and asked the Ouchi guard next to him.
"This is the military booklet that Su Lu personally wrote to me?"
The Ouchi guard next to him bowed down, "Yes, Your Majesty, this is from the front line, and for this letter, several Xuanjia soldiers have died. ”
Gao Ran raised his eyebrows, picked up the letterhead, and read it again, his brows furrowed even tighter.
"Exchange his troops for a place in Shangshan!"
"Foolish dreams!"
Gao Ran was angry, Su Lu, this kid is really a thief, in order to go out to the army once, he even asked me to have a festival in the Tang Kingdom, and I really have no one in the Tang Dynasty.
"Pass my military order, the front army is open, before the moonlight falls tonight, we must arrive in Dragon City, break the barbarian army tomorrow, let Su Lu and the Han people also take a look."
"My Tang Army is not invincible to the barbarians."
After thinking about it, Gao Ran said viciously again: "Spread my will, the three-way army does not care about casualties, as long as it can exterminate the barbarians."
