144 Shuzhou (1)
After listening to the advice of General Kutulu and Tuoba Ling, Tuoba Yan also agreed to this tactic. He looked at the large map hanging and asked the generals: "What do you think is the best choice for our feint attack this time?" ”
This question was asked to a large group of big people at once. They have always been where the Khan pointed, where they hit. When will this group of generals think about the question of where they should fight? So they looked at each other and were silent, not knowing how to answer.
But Tuoba Ling, as a military advisor, had to speak at this time, "I think this location can't be too far away from Yangcheng, so it will take too much time when we turn our heads." But it can't be too close, so that Nan Chu will see that our drunkards don't mean to drink. ”
"If you want to meet the criteria that the second prince said, there are not many states and counties to choose from." General Kutulu pointed to several places, "Here, here, and here, these places, maybe you can think about them." ”
Tuoba Yan looked at the few places that General Kutulu had ordered, and did not say good, nor did he say bad. The second prince, Tuoba Ling, touched his chin and pondered for a moment and said, "Although the distance between these points is appropriate, these places are close to high mountains, and they are easy to defend and difficult to attack. ”
Tuoba Yan knows that these places have the title of one husband and ten thousand people. There are poems: Shu Road is difficult, it is difficult to go to the blue sky. The terrain here is really difficult.
But since it's a feint, you don't have to care too much. Thinking of this, Tuoba Yan said with a final word: "It's here, Shuzhou." No matter how difficult and dangerous it is here, we are just attacking the east and west, and the purpose is not to attack Shuzhou, but - Yangcheng! ”
When everyone saw the look of determination on Tuoba Yan's face, they naturally supported the Khan. Tuoba Ling and Kutulu glanced at each other, and both agreed with Tuoba Yan's decision.
Seeing that the generals present had no objections, Tuoba Yan ordered: "General Zuo, Alemu, order you to take 50,000 troops, march along the Lan River, and outflank Shuzhou on the right side. ”
"Yes, the last general will definitely live up to his mission." Alem stepped forward and commanded.
"Right General Abtai." Tuoba Yan continued, "I order you to take 50,000 cavalry, make a detour from Zhangzhou, and surround Shuzhou from the left side. ”
"The last general commands." Abtai replied.
Tuoba Yan looked around and said to the other generals: "The rest of the people, follow me and General Kutulu, march from the front to Shuzhou. ”
"The last general commands." Everyone said in unison.
"Tomorrow's third watch, the whole army will set off!" Tuoba Yan finally said.
The news of Xiang Qiang's army attacking Shuzhou soon spread to the Southern Chu court. Up and down the court, there was really chaos. Before the mission sent to sue for peace arrived in Yongzhou, Xiang Qiang had already turned to Shuzhou.
Mrs. Xu and the others had no choice but to draw out the Xiang army from the nearby state capital and go to Shuzhou to support.
However, this transfer of troops and horses happened to fall into the trap of Tuobayan. The current Nanchu is really without soldiers.
Qingyun's side, under Qin Luo's control, slowly relaxed his vigilance against Danyang City. Maybe those old clansmen of the Tuoba clan, seeing that the soldiers had not found Feng Rubing for so long, they no longer kept an eye on Danyang City and acquiesced to Qin Luo's actions.
However, at this time, Blacksmith Sun received news that Xiang Qiang's army was preparing to besiege Shuzhou. So he sneaked into Qin Luo's camp overnight and told Qin Luo the news.
"Shuzhou?" Qin Luo was very surprised after hearing this, the target chosen by Tuoba Yan was actually Shuzhou?
"Yes, now Shuzhou is in an emergency, and the court is in chaos. Qin Luo, you can't wait any longer, Shuzhou is a rich granary, if it is destroyed by Xiang Qiang, there will be a famine in Dachu next year. Blacksmith Sun said.
"I understand. However, ......" Qin Luo thought about it, and still said bluntly, "Shu Dao is difficult, and it is difficult to go to the blue sky." There is a natural danger in Shuzhou, and Xiang Qiang will definitely not be able to break through it for a while. ”
"I'm not afraid of 10,000, I'm afraid of what if. Qin Luo, we can't bet on national fortune. Blacksmith Sun said earnestly, "Now the security of Danyang City has been reduced a lot, and the soldiers are no longer searching from house to house. At this time, isn't it the best time to let General Feng go? ”
"Definitely. Those old ministers of the Tuoba clan clearly agreed to my lifting of martial law, but secretly, they will definitely strengthen their defense. They are waiting for us to lift martial law and take it in one fell swoop. Qin Luo explained.
Indeed, this is how Tuoba Ling was arranged. After he had been stalking several times in vain, he wrote to Tuoba Sheng, asking him to temporarily agree to lift martial law in Danyang City, but secretly sent additional manpower to mingle among the herdsmen and continue to search.
"That'...... What to do in Shuzhou? "Blacksmith Sun is in a hurry.
Qin Luo thought for a moment and said to the blacksmith Sun: "I plan to meet General Feng in person and discuss countermeasures with him. ”
Qin Luo wanted to see Feng Rubing, saying that it was not difficult, and it was not easy to say. If he wanted to see him, Qin Luo could go directly down to the secret passage and meet Feng Rubing from the secret passage. But the difficulty is that Qin Luo found that there were always people following him these days, so he contacted the people in Nanchu, and Liu Changfeng did it for him. Or, it was Blacksmith Sun who sneaked in late at night.
Although Feng Rubing's martial arts are superb, it is best for him not to show up in Qingyun during extraordinary times. Qin Luo wanted to go to the abandoned horse farm in the suburbs alone, but he was afraid of leaking his whereabouts, so he was watched and discovered the entrance to the secret passage.
So after thinking about it, Qin Luo had to continue to be cheeky and ask Ye Leyi for help.
After listening to the cause and effect, Ye Leyi held his chin, looked at Qin Luo, and said with a smile: "So, you want me to help you get rid of those who are tracking you." ”
"yes." Qin Luo nodded, "Second Miss is superb in martial arts, these few people, it must be easy to solve." ”
"Actually, I'm also annoyed by these people. The other day, they were not only following you, but also me. Ye Leyi complained, "I guess these people must have been sent by the second prince, and he wants to find out Feng Rubing's whereabouts through you." ”
Qin Luo admitted: "The second prince is indeed very smart, and he can see the key at a glance. Now, I have to meet General Feng. What the second prince wants, isn't that what he wants? ”
"Actually, we don't have to have them in direct conflict. If you want to throw these tails, it's not difficult, it's ......" Ye Leyi looked Qin Luo up and down, and said with disdain, "Your equestrian skills are too bad to get rid of them." ”
"Second Miss is a superb horseman, she will definitely be able to throw off those who are following her." Qin Luo looked indifferent, but said words of compliment.
Ye Leyi really ate this, and she was overjoyed, and she smiled proudly: "Of course, every time they follow me, they are not far away from me?" ”
Qin Luo arched his hand: "The second lady is really a heroine among women." ”
"Qin Luo, for the sake of us being allies, I can help you once. You get on my horse and I'll take you away. Yeleyi said cheerfully.
"...... like this" Qin Luo was a little embarrassed, he turned his head to look at his horse, a little hesitant.
"Leave your horse here, the old horse knows the way, and it will go home by itself." Ye Leyi thought that Qin Luo was reluctant to give up the horse.
Qin Luo also knew that instead of having a head-on conflict with them, if Ye Leyi's face was recognized by them, it would cause more trouble. But killing people and killing people, Qin Luo still has lingering palpitations when he does it now. Although they are Xiang Qiang people, they are just ordered by people, and they have not done anything to hurt nature and reason. Qin Luo couldn't kill them directly.
So the approach proposed by Yereyi was the best. Qin Luo thought about it for a while, so he had to say, "There is Miss Lao." ”
"Get on the horse." Ye Leyi took the lead on the horse, but stretched out his left hand and invited Qin Luo.
Qin Luo thought to himself, it's not that he didn't ride a horse with her, she didn't care, so forget it. So Qin Luo grabbed Ye Leyi's hand, turned over on the horse, and sat behind Ye Leyi.
"Hold on to me." Yereyi said a word, then whipped him fiercely, and beat the horse away.
Qin Luo didn't want to catch Ye Leyi, but he found that if he didn't catch it, he would fall. This time the horseback riding was not as good as last time, and that time Ye Leyi and Qin Luo were talking slowly on the horse and riding a horse. Now it's different, the speed is as fast as an arrow, and it rushes towards the grassland with a "whoosh", Qin Luo panicked and hurriedly grabbed her waist.
Ye Leyi took Qin Luo and began to run aimlessly on the grassland. Occasionally, he asked Qin Luo loudly: "Look at the back, is there anyone?" ”
Qin Luo turned around and saw a few small black shadows faintly behind him. Presumably, those who were watching found that Qin Luo had fled suddenly, and they couldn't hide themselves all of a sudden, so they caught up directly.
"There are still a few that haven't been shaken off." Qin Luo replied.
Of course, Yereyi would not let them succeed, and she grasped the reins in one hand and whipped her horse with the other, speeding forward. The horses carried the two of them on a gallop. Qin Luo crouched behind her, and could only hear the wind of the grassland whistling in her ears, and it immediately bumped and undulated, and she could only hold Ye Leyi's waist tightly to prevent falling.
The shadow that followed behind grew smaller and smaller, and gradually disappeared. After Yereyi turned around to make sure it was safe, he reined in the reins of the horse and stopped the horse.
Then, she found that Qin Luo behind her was still holding herself tightly, as if she hadn't realized it yet, and had thrown off her tail.
"Hey." Yeleyi smiled, "Open your eyes, I've already dumped them." ”
Qin Luo opened his eyes at this time, and realized that his posture with Ye Leyi was very ambiguous. He immediately let go of his hand, embarrassed and didn't know what to do.
Qin Luo hurriedly dismounted, only to feel that he was about to vomit after being tossed on the horse. He had never ridden such a fast horse in his life. He breathed a sigh of relief and looked around, "Where is this?" ”
"It should be east of Danyang City." "Let's let the horses rest for a while, and I'll take you to the horse farm at the Secret Passage," said Yereyi. ”
The two of them found a stream and sat down, and Ye Leyi teased: "Qin Luo, just leaning on my back, it's very comfortable." ”
"......" Ye Leyi didn't mention it, but when he mentioned it, Qin Luo's face turned a little red again.
Ye Leyi felt even more interesting when he saw this, "You really don't look like an uncle who is almost thirty, but like an innocent young man." ”
"Uncle?" Qin Luo was stunned by Ye Leyi's description.
Ye Leyi said as a matter of course: "Yes, in our grassland, men get married at fifteen or sixteen, and at the age of thirty, dolls can ride horses and shoot hunting. If you don't call it uncle, what's it called? ”
