Chapter 104 Cutting meat and feeding the wolf

"Say." 2. "I can't help but go...... I'm really reluctant to go, my little liver--woo! ”

In the big tent, Xiao Yi hugged his baby daughter, kissed and kissed, with a reluctant face, he was a human being in two lives, so he had such a little bit of blood and bones, which was more precious than his life!

Several times, he wanted to bring his daughter back to Xuchang and take care of her personally, but after weighing the pros and cons, he suppressed his thoughts again, there was no way, his daughter was too expensive, he really took her away, Zhelan immediately turned into a little she-wolf, and rebelled with hundreds of thousands of Qiang, this is their young chief!

Besides, the water in Xuchang is too deep, mixed with fish and dragons, and full of dangers, the baby daughter has really passed, it may not be a good thing, forget it, let her stay in the Xiqiang grassland and grow up carefree!

The daughter can't be taken away, but others can, Xiao Yi passed down the military order, the Qiang chieftain must send a young son to Xuchang to receive orthodox Han education, and completely transform them, cultivate them into pro-Han forces, and maintain peace!

In addition, these young people are protected by the Han court and cannot be easily deposed, and from then on, Qiang teenagers who have not received Han education will have no right to inherit.

For this order, the thirty-six departments of Xiqiang were particularly obedient, and in just a few days, they sent the children here, and the number of people was far from the regulations, as few as seven or eight, and as many as a dozen, all of them were aristocratic teenagers, and there was no cheating!

This is not surprising, the Qiang people are carrying out sinicization, and they worship the Han civilization very much, and they have the opportunity to send their children to further their studies and come back to govern the tribe, so they are naturally very willing!

The aristocratic teenagers are also very willing, Xuchang is the capital of the Han Dynasty, the prosperous land of smoke and willows, the gentle and rich township, in the eyes of the Qiang people is like a paradise, who doesn't want to enjoy it!

"You also have to take care of your health, just leave trivial matters to others, and ask the Han army for help in case of danger, you will definitely be able to protect your mother and daughter from safety!"

The baby daughter handed it over, Xiao Yi was rare and gentle, caressing Zhilan's beautiful little face, but her eyes fell on her belly!

The two of them worked hard for a few months, and now there are goods in it, which is also one of Zhelan's dependences, just straighten up and walk around Xiao Yi when it's okay, make a pitiful look, and ask for a lot of benefits, then again, this woman is really a good piece of land, and the seeds will sprout!

"Hehe, Xiao Lang, don't worry, the slave family will give birth to a little man, and when he grows up, he will be as brave as you, galloping across the country, and invincible in the world!"

Zhelan also figured out that in the concept of the Han people, sons are much more valuable than daughters, they can inherit their father's title, and they can also share the family property, if they are the eldest son in the family, the advantage is even greater!

"Hehe, giving birth to a boy and a girl depends on the will of God, besides, giving birth to a son may not be a blessing!"

Xiao Yi smiled dumbly, but there was a trace of worry in his heart, if Zhelan really gave birth to a son, he would be the son of the Xiao family, but he would not be a concubine, and it would be a hidden danger in the future, it would be better to have a daughter, it would be peaceful!

After bidding farewell to his wife and daughter, Xiao Yi gave an order: "The army will set up camp and return to Xuchang in triumph!" ”

At the sound of an order, the camp immediately boiled, everywhere there were shouts of 'go home', the soldiers had been on the expedition for more than half a year, they were born and died, bleeding and sweating, and now they went back to reunite with their relatives, and they were naturally extremely happy!

Besides, when everyone went out on the expedition, there was nothing but armor and blades, and the poor jingle clanged around, followed the governor around the capital, killing people like hemp, looting countless times, that is not rich flowing oil, with this wealth, it is enough for their families to live a good life!

The whip sounded on the golden kicks, the people played a triumphant song, Xiao Yi led the army, along the way with flags and horns, and marched to the east, but their first stop was not Xiao Pass, but Shangdang in the north!

…………………………………………………………………………………………………………

Shangdang County - the gateway to the northwest of Bingzhou, the city is high and the pond is deep, easy to defend and difficult to attack, and it is also a place where soldiers must fight, Yuan Shang retreated here after the defeat, restless day and night, like a bird with a frightened bow!

A master said: 'Catch the toad and pee out ......', before Xiao Yi left, he was ready to blackmail the third prince to get some benefits for the soldiers!

In Shangdang City, I heard that the 'ghost-faced Xiao Lang' was killed, Yuan Shang was so frightened that his soul was not possessed, and his whole body trembled into a ball, this is the sequelae left by the last defeat, as long as he heard the word 'Xiao Lang', he would do it, and in desperation, his subordinates all replaced it with 'that person'!

"What do you think, why did Xiao Yi come here, why did he have to attack and fail to make a big attack?"

With courage, Yuan Shang, supported by two guards, led the generals to the top of the city to check the enemy situation outside, and to discuss how to deal with it!

"Xiao Yi only has tens of thousands of horses, after a hundred battles, he is already exhausted, and he has no strength to invade the state.

The judge is resourceful, and he believes that his judgment is correct, but he observes the other party's camp, which is fierce and prosperous, and he can't help but have a trace of suspicion, Xiao Lang is the person who likes to take risks the most!

"Xiao Lang has won many battles, and the generals under his command are in full swing, this must be a place to plot and merge states, and the third prince must deal with it carefully, and ask for reinforcements!"

It was Jiang Qi who spoke, after the Battle of Kushuichuan, he won the trust of Yuan Shang, his official position soared, and he was responsible for commanding the party garrison, and his opinion was full of weight!

"General Jiang Qi is reasonable, I hope that the third prince will ask for reinforcements!"

"The ghost-faced Xiao Lang is menacing, he must have bad intentions, it's better to be careful!"

"If the party is lost, and the state is not guaranteed, be careful and make no big mistake, and send more troops and horses to come, so that nothing goes wrong!"

……………………………………

In the face of two different opinions, after thinking about it, the generals privately thought that the judgment was reasonable, but when they said it, they all supported Jiang Qi, there was no way, they were really scared by Xiao Yi, and they would rather believe it than believe it!

"Immediately send a messenger, eight hundred miles of fast horses, to Yecheng to ask for reinforcements, just say that Xiao Lang has invaded Shangdang County, there are 200,000 soldiers and horses, and the military situation is urgent!"

After a little thought, Yuan Shang also stood on Jiang Qi's side, the generals were afraid of Xiao Yi, and he was even more afraid, so he didn't hesitate to tell a small lie and exaggerate the strength of the other party!

The messenger was sent out, everyone's hearts were still hanging, staring closely at the enemy camp outside the city, Xiao Yi really wanted to attack and merge with tens of thousands of horses, the people's hearts were not enough to swallow the elephant, he was not afraid of dying?

"Click! …… Click! Click! ”

Everyone was speculating, only to see the dust rise in the distance, and a team of Xuanjia cavalry rushed over like a whirlwind, and the first one was a divine horse's ink smoke horse, and the one sitting on it was the governor of Zhengxi-Xiao Yi!

"Ghost-faced Xiao Lang! …… Ghost-faced Xiao Lang! ”

Seeing Xiao Yi galloping vertically and horizontally, showing off his might, General Yuan Jun made a big uproar, and a few timid people immediately clamped their legs and had the urge to urinate, including Yuan Shang, "God...... The God of Killing is really here! ”

"The matter of Xiliang has ended, and most of the governors do not return to the dynasty to restore their lives, but instead invade the city of Bingzhou, what is the so-called reason?" At the critical moment, it was Jiang Qi's courage, standing at the head of the city, shouting and reprimanding, full of momentum!

"Hehe, lack of military resources, it is difficult to appreciate merit, in desperation, the governor of Pontus had to beg for shame, and hope that the third prince will remember the friendship in the past and borrow some money and food, so that the army will withdraw immediately, and not hurt the grass and trees in the state!"

As he spoke, Xiao Yi bent his bow and arrow, aiming at the city tower, and a wolf's tooth arrow flew out, with a list tied to the shaft of the arrow, which was the material he requested, gold and silver, jewelry, ordnance, grain and grass, cloth, war horses, cattle and sheep...... There is a lot of variety and a huge quantity!

It turned out that he was not asking for his life, but asking for money, after listening to Xiao Yi's narration, Yuan Jun took a breath of relief, but after reading the list, they all grinned, this guy's appetite is too big, like a vicious wolf on the grassland!

"Hebei is rich, and the property is not a problem, within two days, please send it to the camp of the governor of the city, the two families are reconciled, and they will not invade each other, if not, on the day of breaking the city, the chickens and dogs will not be left, and they will be killed!"

After some intimidation, Xiao Yi waved the treasure carving bow in his hand, turned the horse's head, and returned to the camp!

"Ordnance, grain and grass, the lifeblood of the army, how can it be used to fund the enemy, this matter must not be used!"

The first to speak out against it, the fourth and third princes of the Yuan family, with strong power, are now blocked by others and asking for money, is it also shameful?

"If you can't bear it, you will make a big plan, send out some money, in exchange for the peace of the city, why not, Gou Jian also offered beautiful women and husbands back then, so that they can indulge in pleasure, and finally restore the country successfully, we should follow suit!"

On the contrary, Jiang Qi advocated spending money to buy peace, and gave the example of Gou Jian-lying on the salary and tasting courage, which is also a good excuse!

"Since ancient times, the victor is king, and peace is not exchanged for money......"

"Money can be channeled, let alone people, besides, let's retreat as advance and paralyze the enemy army......"

…………………………………………

On the tower of the city, there was a fierce quarrel within the Yuan army, the trial was one side, and the rest of the people would be one side, saliva was flying, and the arguments were endless......

"Don't be too anxious to persecute you, let this son think carefully!" Listening to the quarrel of his subordinates, Yuan Shang looked sad and asked for money? Or do you want to die?

………………………………………………………………………………

"Forget it, if you are ruined and avoid disasters, you should treat it as cutting meat and feeding it to the wolves!" After hesitating all night, Yuan Shang still decided to hand over the money and change it to a safe and sound one!

Under an order, the soldiers of the Yuan army opened the treasury, poured all the money in the city, and looted a lot of property of the people, and were busy all day, finally gathered enough supplies, and sent people to send them outside the city before sunset......

Xiao Yi is also very trustworthy, after receiving the supplies, he immediately retreated, walked cleanly, went straight to Guanzhong, and returned to Xuchang!

"Xiao Lang is far away, and the state is safe and sound!"

The enemy withdrew, and Yuan Shang finally breathed a sigh of relief, but he didn't understand a truth, cutting meat and feeding wolves, flesh and blood are endless, and the wolf's heart is not dead!
