081 Defending the City (5)

The divination of Chishui is held at the foot of Mount Abu Shenglan.

The Great Khan of Yel and the sorcerers prayed on the stage, and then the sorcerers began to dance again. Qin Luo, like the people of Chishui, knelt at the foot of the snow-capped mountain and bowed his head in prayer. This time it is really to bow down to Shenglan Mountain, not to worship like Zai Qingyun, who can only bow to the north.

Ye Leyi knelt beside Qin Luo, her eyes closed, her heart was calm, and her mouth was full of words. Yereyi had great reverence for the god Chiwu and prayed with great devotion. Unlike Qin Luo, who always looks around and observes the people in Chishui.

Suddenly, the wizard on the stage did not know what to do, and a flame erupted from his mouth, and then lit the brazier. This seems to be a little different from Qingyun's sacrifice, the wizard of Chishui prefers to play a little trick to deceive people. Qin Luo saw through it but didn't debunk it, this kind of little trick, on the streets of Chu State, many people who sell art will.

Afterwards, the wizard took out the shoulder blade of the cow, looked at it for a long time, and said to the people below: "Ji, this battle will be won." All the soldiers and civilians of Chishui cheered and bowed down again to thank the gods. Qin Luo absentmindedly saluted with the people he followed, but what he thought in his heart was that he would end early and set out early.

"Qin Luo, do you believe in the Red Crow Heavenly God?" Suddenly, Yereyi asked him. Although Ye Leyi had kept her eyes closed, she was a person who practiced martial arts, and her five senses were different from ordinary people, and she had long noticed that Qin Luo was turning her head back and forth, and her mind was uncertain.

Qin Luo thought for a while and said, "I'...... Do as the Romans do. ”

"You've only been in Xiangqiang for three or four years, so soon you're following the customs?" Ye Leyi smiled, "I know, you Central Plains people don't believe in this, you believe in Confucianism, Confucius and Mencius." ”

Qin Luo explained: "In the Central Plains, not everyone believes in Confucianism. Only scholars will study the Confucian classics and worship Confucius and Mencius. In fact, a long time ago, during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, there were hundreds of schools of thought and hundreds of schools of thought. ”

"The history of the Central Plains is indeed longer than that of our Xiangqiang. Actually, I would also like to read your books on Nanchu, such as Mencius, The Analects, The University, and The Mean. ”

"Second Miss knows so much." Qin Luo was also surprised, but he didn't expect Ye Leyi to still know Confucius and Mencius, the Four Books.

Yereyi just smiled and didn't answer. In fact, she had only heard of these books, but had not read them. Because...... She doesn't know Chinese characters at all.

After the divination ceremony, General Lisse came. He had already resigned to the Great Khan, and this time he came to see the second lady again, and said to Yereyi: "Second miss, the last general will set off here." ”

Seeing this, Qin Luo also arched his hand and said, "Say goodbye below." ”

Yeleyi looked at the two of them, nodded and said, "I wish you a great defeat of the enemy army and a triumphant return." ”

In the Golden Palace, Tuoba Yan, Tuoba Ling, the Great Commander, General Kutulu, Alem and Abutai discussed the military situation until the fourth or fifth watch, and almost stayed awake all night.

The second prince, Tuoba Ling, said: "We can't just stare at the Black Panther cavalry in Heiyan, their infantry siege and defense are very good. ”

General Kutulu also said: "According to the report from the spies, the Black Panther cavalry of Mozang Dag is now not far from Danyang City. This time they were just probing, and I reckon that when the Black Panther cavalry arrived, they would launch a full-scale attack. ”

"If the cavalry and infantry attack together...... "The great master stroked his beard and sighed, "It is estimated that it will be difficult to hold Danyang." ”

"If only we could suppress the opposing infantry before the Black Panther cavalry arrives." General Kuturu said.

"It's a pity that we can only stay in the city now, and we can't get out." Alam said angrily, "If we want to destroy the opposing infantry, we can only wait for them to attack the city." ”

Tuoba Yan pondered for a moment and asked everyone here, "How about letting the Qingyun Iron Guard go out of the city and sneak attack the enemy military camp in the middle of the night?" ”

"Qingyun Iron Guard is not suitable for sneak attacks." Tuoba Ling retorted, "Have you forgotten the lesson from the last time you attacked the Mozangdasi military camp? ”

"That's because of a leak from Ranno." Tuoba Yan said unwillingly, "If the other party hadn't been alert, we would have been able to successfully sneak attack." ”

"Now in wartime, the Black Rock army will definitely be vigilant." Tuoba Ling still insisted on his opinion and objected, "I don't agree with the sneak attack. ”

"We can't just sit back and wait for them to surround us." Tuoba was anxious and said irritably, "What should I do now?" Sticking to it, burning grain and grass, and cutting off its back road? If you have any other thoughts, say them. ”

The Great Master was the first to stand up and said, "It is not feasible to burn grain and grass. Parjia Xitang is just west of Danyang, and even if the enemy's grain and grass are burned, they can still transport grain from Xitang. ”

"I think it's better to stick to it." The second prince, Tuoba Ling, said, "We have plenty of grain and grass in the city, and besides, I think it's time for Qin Luo to come back." ”

"Do you expect reinforcements from Qin Luo?" General Kutulu wondered, "Now that there is no news from Chishui, I feel that there is little hope. ”

Alam was also skeptical: "Even if the Chishui Ministry is willing to support, can their army beat the Black Panther Cavalry?" ”

"We're on our own." Tuoba Yan said, "Now that we are trapped in the city, even if Qin Luo wants to convey news to us, we will not be able to receive it. I decided to defend Danyang City. ”

The rest of the crowd said in unison: "Command." ”

Qin Luo and the people of the mission, following General Lisse's Shuangchi Army, finally embarked on the journey. Not long ago, they had just received bad news that the Zhanlu Prairie had been lost and the Khan was trapped in Danyang City.

"General Lisse, the battle ahead is urgent, can we hurry?" Qin Luo saw that General Lise had been marching slowly, and he didn't panic at all, so he was a little angry.

General Lisse said unhurriedly: "My soldiers are already very tired from the long journey. If we march in a hurry, even if we can reach Danyang quickly, but the enemy army is waiting for work, and it is useless for our army to go. ”

Qin Luo said solemnly: "If we arrive and Danyang City is broken, it will be useless. ”

General Lise mocked: "That can only say that Qingyun Tiewei is not worthy of the name, and even Danyang can't be defended." ”

Qin Luo knew that General Lise did not dare to do anything to delay the military situation, and he suddenly understood that King Yele Khan must have given an explanation to General Lisse to make him so blatantly delay.

Things were indeed as Qin Luo expected, and the Great Khan of Yele had a separate conversation with General Lise before setting out on the expedition. King Yele Khan ordered him that if he could join forces with Qingyun to defeat the Black Rock Division, it would naturally be the best. If the Twin Red Army had not arrived before the city was broken, the Black Rock Army would have just experienced a major battle and would have been exhausted. When the time comes, you can take the opportunity to sweep away the remnants of the Black Rock Army and reap the benefits of the fishermen.

Each tribe will naturally choose what is beneficial to them, and the Chishui Department is no exception. Qin Luo saw that General Lise was deliberately delaying, so he no longer spoke in vain, he had to find a way to solve this problem by himself.

Qin Luo returned to the ranks of the mission, Ze Anji saw him coming, rode up to meet him, and asked, "What did General Lise say, he was so slow, what year and month could he reach Danyang City?" ”

Qin Luo analyzed: "He did it on purpose, he just wanted to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, and when Qingyun and Heiyan were both defeated, Chishui would be able to reap the benefits of the fisherman." ”

"It's really hateful, Chishui actually does one thing in front of him and another thing behind his back." Ze Anji was almost.

Although Qin Luo didn't have any good ideas yet, he still reassured Ze Anji and said, "Don't worry, I will come up with a way to force them to speed up the march." ”
