056 Dilemma (1)
Under the leadership of Tuoba Yan, the Qingyun Iron Guard withdrew all the way in the direction of the wild valley, and finally before the arrival of Guo Erhe's army, everyone entered the valley. General Kutulu asked a pair of men and horses to guard the entrance of the wild valley, quite a posture of "one man is the pass, ten thousand people are not open". The rest went deep into the valley and rested in place.
Tuoba Yan rode his horse to the creek, and saw that the Qingyun Iron Guards were all gray and bloody, and his heart was full of frustration. He looked at his second brother again, regardless of his previous suspicions, and ran to save himself in the middle of the night. and Qin Luo, who persuaded himself many times not to solve the problem by force, but he just didn't listen, and it turned out to be a big disaster.
"Servant, Lan, Nuo!" Tuoba Yan silently read the name and closed his eyes in resentment.
Alam had just gone to the stream to get some water, and when he saw that the khan was in a bad mood, he asked, "Khan, drink some water." ”
Tuoba Yan absentmindedly took the water bladder, raised his head and took a few sips, and handed it to Qin Luo, "You can drink some too." ”
Qin Luo took the water bladder and took a few sips slowly. Only then did Tuoba Yan remember to ask Qin Luo, "By the way, are you injured?" ”
Qin Luo wiped his mouth, shook his head and said, "I'm fine." ”
"You and the second brother are really right, but the words of Servant Lanno are not credible." Tuoba Yan has the courage to admit his mistakes when he does wrong.
Qin Luo analyzed: "Fu Lanno deliberately let me go in exchange for your trust in her, Khan. In fact, she was a member of Mozang Kodun from beginning to end. ”
"I was careless." Tuoba Yan said angrily, "This time it can be regarded as a complete break with her mother, I don't know how she will deal with her son." ”
"After the army of Mozang Dasi and Gol Erha meets, they will soon come to attack the wild valley." Qin Luo looked at the top of the Wangye Valley, and then looked around, "Fortunately, the mountains here are high and the roads are dangerous, easy to defend and difficult to attack." ”
"But we can't survive here, we have to find a way to get out." Tuoba Ling washed his face and came to his younger brother's side, "Even if they besiege and don't attack, we won't be able to last long without food and grass." ”
Everyone present naturally knows that in all wars, food and grass are a big problem. The so-called soldiers and horses have not moved, and the grain and grass go first, this is the truth.
Alam said anxiously: "There are wild deer, there are so many prey, we can hunt. ”
Tuoba nodded, "That's a good idea." ”
"You can still eat grass root bark." Tuoba Ling scoffed, "I want a solution once and for all. ”
Tuoba said anxiously: "What should I do then." ”
"It's a quick fix." Tuoba Ling said.
"How do you do it quickly?" Tuoba Yan asked, "Now that we have too few troops, they will outnumber us by several times after they will be divided." Even the Qingyun Iron Guard may not be able to rush out. ”
Or...... Send someone out for help? Tuoba Ling thought of another way.
"To whom to call for help? Mother will definitely control Danyang City, and we won't be able to go back. What's more, whose army is still on this side in Qingyun? Instead of waiting for rescue, it is better to recharge your energy and rush out to do a big job. "Tuoba Yan has little confidence in asking for help.
"Or go to the Chishui Department, the White Sand Department?" Alem said.
Tuoba Yan raised his hand and knocked on the skull of Alem's head, and said helplessly: "Don't be stupid, wait for you to report the news, persuade them, and move back reinforcements, how many days will it take to come and go?" We've been stuck here for a long time. ”
Tuoba Ling sighed and said, "If you fight with them, you will only die faster." Otherwise, we'd better wait for backup. ”
"When will that be?" Tuoba Yan began to be impetuous.
However, even a smart person like Tuoba Ling was at a loss, and it was useless for Tuoba Yan to be in a hurry. He had to bet his last hope on Qin Luo. Tuoba Yan asked, "Qin Luo, what can you do?" ”
Since the showdown between Servant Lannuo and Qin Luo that day, Qin Luo actually had a countermeasure, he looked up at the sky, and after thinking for a long time, he said, "...... Capture the thief and capture the king first. ”
"What do you mean?" Tuoba asked hurriedly.
Qin Luo explained: "Most of the soldiers outside have been bewitched by Mozang Kedun, Mozang Dasi and others, if one of their sisters and brothers can be captured and forced to retreat, this dilemma can be solved." ”
After Tuoba Ling heard this, he said incredulously: "What are you kidding, we are trapped here now, not to mention the Golden Palace, we can't even enter Danyang City, how can we catch Mozang Kedun." ”
Qin Luo said again: "Mozang Dasi can also use him as a hostage to force Mozang Kedun to withdraw his troops." ”
Tuoba Ling rolled his eyes and said, "Don't be whimsical, the commander of the enemy army, can he be captured easily?" ”
Tuoba Yan suddenly said, "Wait, this method is feasible. ”
"How is that possible?" Tuoba Ling was about to retort, but Tuoba Yan suddenly grabbed his hand.
Tuoba Ling looked at his younger brother suspiciously, only to see his younger brother turn his head, turn his back to everyone, wink at him, and say two words silently with his lips: "Secret Dao!" ”
Secret Passages! Tuoba Ling suddenly realized that he could enter the Golden Palace through the secret passage without knowing it. However, where the entrance and exit of the secret passage were, only Tuoba Yan himself knew.
"General Kutulu, come over here." Tuoba Yan shouted loudly.
Kutulu was arranging his defenses, and when he heard the call of the Khan, he hurriedly ran over and asked, "Khan, what's wrong?" ”
"Has the army of Mozang Dasi and Guo Erhe met, and has it reached the mouth of the wild valley?"
Kutulu didn't know why the Khan suddenly asked about this, so he said truthfully: "I have already met the division, but I haven't reached the valley mouth yet." They weren't in a hurry, and were marching slowly this way. ”
"Good." Tuoba Yan turned to the second brother, "I'll go out of the valley and sneak into the Golden Palace." ”
Before Tuoba Ling could speak, Kutulu took the lead and stopped: "Khan, it's dangerous! ”
"It's as dangerous to die here." Tuoba Yan immediately said, "I have made up my mind, and I don't need to persuade again." ”
"Okay, brother, take care." Tuoba Ling knew what Tuoba Yan wanted to do, and there was no better way now, Tuoba Ling could only support his younger brother unconditionally.
"Qin Luo, you and I go." Tuoba Yan said, "Second brother and General Kutulu, you stick here, wait for me for three days, and great things can be done." ”
Alam said suddenly: "Khan, take me, and my subordinates will swear to protect Khan and Mr. Qin to the death." ”
Not only did Alem ask for his life, but even Abutai ran over and said, "I'm going too." ”
"Let Alem and Abutai go with you, they both have good martial arts." Tuoba Ling said, "And you still have Qin Luo with you, it's not safe." ”
Qin Luo was slightly embarrassed when he heard this, it is true that he does not know martial arts, and he needs to be protected by guards at all times.
But Tuoba Yan must take Qin Luo with him, and when he is on the road, he needs Qin Luo's advice, how to sneak into the Golden Palace, how to successfully capture Mozang Kedun, it is still a big problem.
Tuoba Yan and the other four people took advantage of the night, quickly whipped their horses, and fled the wild valley as fast as arrows. At this time, Mozang Dasi's army was almost in the wild valley, and their spies saw someone in front of them, and hurriedly ran over to say, "General Mozang, four people have come out of the wild valley and are heading northeast." ”
"They must have been sent out to send a message for help, so that I can catch up with them." Mozangdashi ordered, "Don't kill them, take them alive, I will interrogate them myself." ”
The soldiers took the order, and Golhe rode slowly over and said to Mozang Dasi, "I wonder who they want to call for help?" Red water or white sand? ”
"Maybe it's Tuoba Sheng's great master?" Mozang Dasi guessed.
"Danyang City has been controlled by my people, and it is impossible to open the city gate without my warrant." Guo Erhe said, "This time Tuoba Yan is in a catastrophe, as long as we hold the wild valley and besiege it without attacking, they will be unable to fly." ”
"If it hadn't been for Tuoba Yan attacking my camp first, we wouldn't have wanted to meet him so soon." Mozang Dasi said indignantly, "By the way, there was a slave with him just now, and I can see very clearly that it is the slave who had a quarrel with me last time. ”
"Slaves? What does it look like? Guo Erhe asked.
"That person is no more than seven feet tall, Si Swenwen, he looks quite handsome, and he seems to be from Chu." Mozang Dashi recalled.
"As far as I know, there is only one Chu slave by the Khan's side, and that person is Qin Luo." Guo Erhe had been paying attention to Tuoba Yan, and he knew who this person was as soon as he heard it.
"But my sister told me that my slave who had offended me had been put to death." Mozangdasi touched his chin and wondered, "Then how is he still alive?" ”
"How could the Khan let Qin Luo die?" Guo Erhe smiled and said, "This Qin Luo is not simple, three years ago, at the banquet, he proposed to the old khan to release the women and children of the Chu people in person, do you remember this?" ”
"Oh, I have the impression that it's him." "No wonder I always feel familiar when I look at that slave, as if I have seen it somewhere." ”
