With Shen Xi's explanation, Ah Wulu left the silent civil fort. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

She was blindfolded, rode in a carriage with her maidservant, and under the escort of the Ming officers and soldiers, crossed the trench with seven turns and eight bends, and came to the bottom of a gentle hill on the outskirts of the trench area five miles from the civil fort.

Waiting for the Ming officers and soldiers to withdraw, A Wulu jumped out of the carriage and untied his blindfold while the maid waited, and a feeling of escaping came spontaneously.

Looking back at the civil fort on the top of the mountain, there are dense trenches in front of you, and the dilapidated civil fort still stands majestically. Looking at the trenches and trenches, there are asymmetrical simple bridges connecting them, and it is presumably from these bridges that horse-drawn carriages pass. In the event of a war, all the bridges would be demolished by the Ming army, and the trenches would become a flood of beasts that would devour the lives of the Tatars.

When Awulu was alone during this time, he was also reflecting on himself.

I still underestimated Shen Xi before, this champion of the Ming Dynasty, it took more than a month to build the most stable city in the Ming Dynasty. The strength of the defense of the civil fort is comparable to that of the Ming Jingshi, and she used to think it was very easy to take, and she only discovered the magic of this kind of trench after repeatedly hitting the wall, but it was too late to regret it.

With a sense of responsibility, Awulu returned to the Tatar camp west of the city of Tumubao by car, and went straight to the tent of the Chinese army in Yismayin.

After yesterday's battle, the Tatars lost their troops, and the camp was full of wounded soldiers, showing a bleak scene, and the situation was not much better than in the Tumu fort.

The Tatar soldiers were unusually depressed, they were good at fighting on horseback, but now they let them dismount as infantry, and climbed to the hill held by the Ming army to launch a fierce attack, in front of them were one after another trenches that were difficult to cross, and the arrows and shells flew overhead, and the feeling of life and death made them feel like they were in hell.

This is the reason why Yismain chose to fight at night, if it was a daytime battle, and the soldiers saw their comrades constantly falling down beside them, or being blown to pieces, the spirit and spirit would probably be destroyed earlier.

But even then, faced with a city that was almost impossible to conquer, the Tatars were in a dilemma.

Do you continue to attack, or do you surround but not fight as a turtle grandson?

When Yisma heard that Awulu had returned from an envoy, he personally met him at the Chinese army's tent.

Ah Wulu was anxious to enter the tent, and the first thing he said was: "National teacher, the concubine has something to talk to you about!" ”

Awulu was speaking the words of the Han Chinese, which the Tatar generals present could not understand, and Yi Si Ma Yin narrowed his eyes, he had expected the intention of Shen Xixia's war letter before.

It can be said that the return of Awulu was completely expected by Ismayin.

"If the envoy has anything to say, wait until the account is raised...... The battle report just got, Liu Daxia, the secretary of the Ming Dynasty's military department, has personally led the army to withdraw from Ningxia Town, and now the soldiers and horses have crossed the Yellow River and are about to arrive in Datong Town! ”

In front of Yismayin was a military map with a line drawn on it, which was the route of Liu Daxia's withdrawal from the northwest.

Liu Daxia is worthy of being a famous minister of the Ming Dynasty, and is an important historical figure who carries the handover of the Hongzhi and Zhengde dynasties, although he has many deficiencies in the ability to lead the troops in battle, but the courage to act is not to be said, and the speed of withdrawal is much faster than the Tatars imagined.

Liu Daxia's withdrawal route was to take the post road in the Great Wall, from the Yulin Acropolis to Fugu and Hequ, and then from the Yatou Pass and Laoyingbao to Datong Town, and then converge the soldiers and horses of Taiyuan and Datong Towns to attack Xuanfu to achieve the goal of encircling Wei and saving Zhao, and then return to Beijing.

At this time, the Dayan Khan Department arranged soldiers and horses in the rear, mainly concentrated in the line from Ulzhou to Guangchang, Zhangjiakou of Xuanfu to the Acropolis of Baoan, Tumubao and then to Juyongguan, only scattered tribal armed forces guarded the city, in addition to more than 40,000 soldiers and horses of the tribe led by Yisimayin, but with the heavy losses in the siege last night, now Yisimain only has more than 35,000 soldiers.

The focus of the discussion on the Tatars' promotion was how to resist Liu Daxia's claim to be 200,000 soldiers, but in fact it was about 50,000 or 60,000 soldiers and horses.

Ah Wulu listened for a while, and his heart was shocked inexplicably: "Why can Shen Xi even predict Liu Daxia's withdrawal route?" What he confessed to me has been fulfilled one after another, could it be that I really want to obey his orders, collude with Yisima, and abandon the Khan people, and go out early to plot the status of the Great Khan of the steppe? ”

Losing soldiers and horses one after another, and the main force of his own tribe was still lost, at this time, Yi Si Ma Yin was unwilling to lead the troops to resist Liu Daxia's troops, because it would only hurt both sides.

At the end of the account promotion, Yisima withdrew from the generals, and only he and Awulu were left in the big tent.

"Zhao envoy returned safely, congratulations, this time the civil fort line, hard work, please go to the sleeping tent to rest first, and then the national division will pick up the wind and wash the dust for Zhao envoy!"

Yi Si Ma Yin guessed that Ah Wulu might have come as Shen Xi's lobbyist, and probably guessed what Shen Xi was going to say to him, in fact, Yi Sima Yin had a hunch that it would be too difficult to break through the civil fort, and the best result would be to wait until the city ran out of water and food, but he was afraid that Shen Xi would lead his troops to break through.

Shen Xi can play so many tricks with just one defense, and build a civil fort full of loopholes into the strongest fortress of the Ming Dynasty, he is very afraid that Shen Xi will also use some unexpected tactics in the breakthrough battle, so that he will be defeated again in this battle.

A Wulu said: "Didn't the national teacher ask the concubine what kind of information she had gotten in the Tumu Fort in the past few days?" ”

Yi Si Ma Yin smiled, he thought to himself, what you see must be what Shen Xi is willing to let you know, with Shen Xi's cunning, if you investigate useful information, how can you return safe and sound? He shook his head and said, "Envoy Zhao doesn't need to say it first, wait until you rest, and then discuss!" Come, prepare a fragrant soup for the Zhao envoy, and no one is allowed to disturb it! ”

"Wait!"

Awulu suddenly raised his hand and said.

Yi Si Ma Yin frowned and asked, "Is there anything else to do with the Zhao Envoy?" ”

Ah Wulu said coldly: "The national teacher is in such a hurry to let the concubine go to rest, are you afraid that the concubine will say something and embarrass the national teacher?" ”

Yi Si Ma Yin said: "Zhao envoy is too careful, the civil fort has not been broken for a long time, but the general of the defending army in the city, Shen Xi, is cunning and cunning, the responsibility is not in the Zhao envoy, but because I can't understand its conspiracy, so that the civil fort is now strong and difficult to attack." ”

"But the civil fort is trapped on all sides, although there is heavy snow to replenish the water source, but sooner or later the grain and grass will be exhausted, and when the military heart in the city is dispersed, the city will be attacked again, and it can be broken in one battle!"

A Wulu sneered: "The words of the national teacher are really familiar to the concubine, I remember that the national teacher once said that this castle could be broken overnight, and the sound is still in my ears, but now I have to wait until the grain and grass in the city are exhausted, is the national teacher acting too much?" ”

Yi Si Ma Yin sighed lightly, he also expected that Ah Wulu would inevitably question him when he returned, which would embarrass his face, and he did not want to argue with Ah Wulu about this issue.

"What else does the envoy have to say, let's talk about it together!" Yismain said.

A Wulu said: "Lord Shen, the general of the defenders in the city, ordered the concubine to send a letter to the national teacher to read!" ”

With that, Awulu took a letter from his bosom and presented it to Ismain.

Yi Si Ma Yin didn't want to open the letter to read it, but he also wanted to know what Shen Xi was talking about.

He returned to the back of the handsome case, opened the envelope and took out the letter paper and looked at it carefully, and found that the content of the letter was a little obscure...... In this matter, Shen Xi did have the intention of secretly discussing with the Tatars, but Shen Xi's purpose was mainly to protect his own body, and secondly, to use the vital forces of his subordinates to return to the aid of the Beijing Division.

Yi Si Ma Yin quickly finished reading the letter and said coldly: "Shen Xi...... What else did the envoy convey? ”

A Wulu said: "There are some words, the concubine body doesn't want to say it here, please invite the national teacher to the concubine's sleeping tent tonight, and the concubine body will explain it to the national teacher!" When the concubine body is gone, she will cook a pot of wine and drink with the national teacher! ”

It's just as subtle, but the intent is clear.

Ah Wulu will not trust others easily, and she is vigilant enough even against Yismain.

And the occasion when she wants to talk to Yismayin is in her own bedchamber, cooking wine to entertain Yisma, because it is fake, and it is true that she is in trouble with Yisma.

Yismayin could vaguely guess Awulu's purpose, he knew Awulu very well about Awulu's personality, and also guessed that Awulu wanted to rein in him, and even before that, Awulu had offered the condition of "self-recommendation pillow", and he actually turned to launch a battle against Tumubao, but he returned with a feather.
