Chapter Seventy-Eight: Oral Agreement

On the earth mountain and water village, a raging fire was ignited, and the last nirvana was used to break the red dust!

One way to the right soldiers, two road soldiers, this is the strength that Gao Chan took out and the trick he said. Two surprise troops, attacking from the upper and lower reaches respectively. A thousand soldiers, divided into ten, relied on fishing boats to send a little bit every day in a place where the current was a little slower, and after the first batch was sent over, they either killed patrol scouts, or hid in the mountains and forests, so they were not discovered by Broken Red Dust.

Sneak attack all the way, Duan Hongchen and a few hundred cavalry went over and won a big victory. However, when the surprise soldiers of the second sneak attack came, Duan Hongchen chose to retreat without hesitation.

And on top of the water wall, many flammable materials were placed in the military camp where they were originally stationed, and all the gates were closed to slow down the enemy's speed. After dozens of cavalry were broken, the barracks were set on fire with fire crossbow arrows.

The fire is soaring!

Broken Hongchen rode 2,000 people on foot and retreated to the nameless hill.

Gao Chan occupied the ancient ferry, and there were still 14,000 remaining troops, leaving 2,000 people to guard the ferry and 2,000 to protect the grain road. The remaining 10,000 people chased after Broken Hongchen, and at night, successfully surrounded the nameless hill.

Two thousand against ten thousand, the situation once again took a sharp turn for the worse. Before going up the mountain, Broken Hongchen estimated the situation. If you return to Longquan Mansion directly, then all the efforts you have made before have been in vain. Moreover, regardless of success or failure, the land east of Longquan Mansion will never have the day when the Bohai people will return.

Even with teeth, the Goguryeo people must be nailed here. Duan Hongchen sent a team of cavalry back to Longquan to report the news, where there were still 2,000 Xu Qing's soldiers and tens of thousands of Bohai subjects! They can easily form tens of thousands of militias!

Duan Hongchen didn't know that Xu Qing had already left Longquan to go to the Dahe clan, and he didn't know that almost all the Haoyou clans in Longquan Mansion and Bohai had quietly written to the Goguryeo military camp to protect themselves.

Betraying the country for glory.

When Xu Qing left, he left a sentence: "If the red dust is defeated, kill the heroes in the city first, and then call on the old people of Bohai to join the remaining 2,000 state soldiers brought over, and maybe they can get back one percent." ”

But now, if Broken Hongchen wants to be defeated and undefeated, what should I do when I am half-defeated?

Chu Jiang Qitai was embarrassed. In the end, under consultation with the Dark River General's Mansion, it was decided to control the Haoyou clan first, and then confiscate the private soldiers of the Haoyou family, plus the requisitioned militia, and 1,000 state soldiers, and gather 3,000 troops to go out for defense.

The head of the Haoyou family was controlled, and those private soldiers did not dare to disobey, the militia could be filled, and the state soldiers were considered the mainstay. Such 3,000 people are still quite combative. At least, it is comparable to two thousand Goguryeo people. If it is flanked from both sides with Broken Hongchen, it is still possible to change the situation. Not to mention victory, at least it can save the monarch, right?

On the nameless hill, because everyone evacuated in a hurry, they didn't bring grain and grass, but fortunately, there was a spring on the mountain. On the first day, you can still hunt and eat wild vegetables, and on the second day, there are only insects left on the mountain. Six hundred horses, without forage, will starve to death if they are not killed. Dozens of horses a day, you can also hold on for a while. Maintaining the current morale is more important than the horses.

As long as the reinforcements come in time, you don't even have to kill too many horses. Duan Hongchen was waiting for reinforcements, and he only begged the Goguryeo people not to attack too soon. In fact, the Goguryeo people also wanted to consume the morale of the red dust and attack the mountain again. However, while waiting, the Goguryeo people began to fight among themselves again.

——————————

Xu Qing said lightly: "I'm here to unite you!" ”

Monk Yelu Bai couldn't touch his head, and said in confusion: "United? ”

"That's right, join forces with you to exterminate the Xi people and divide the land of the Xi people equally."

"Hiss......" Yelubai circled around Xu Qing, looked at him carefully, and said in his heart, could it be that I recognized the wrong person?

After repeatedly verifying Xu Qing's integrity, he asked, "What is the relationship between the Bohai Kingdom and the benefactor?" ”

"Well, let's put it this way, King Bohai is my brother, his daughter is my sister, and I will be my fourth wife in the future."

"What is this relationship......

"Let me tell you this, the relationship of the family."

"This is embarrassing......" said Yelubai, "I didn't expect such a relationship between the benefactor and the Bohai Kingdom, alas, ......"

"What? Do you want to swallow the Bohai Sea together after destroying the Xi people? ”

Yelubai is now "drunk" and completely gone: "To be honest, not only I think so, but the people in the tribe all think so, what, what? ”

Xu Qing scolded in his heart, this is a roundabout question: Is there anything that can impress me in your kid?

Xu Qingdao: "I guess, in the battle between the Dahe clan and the Xi clan, it was your Danbu who charged ahead, right?" ”

"Yes, so what?"

"How? Do you think, although the Xi clan is slightly weaker than your Dahe clan, what will happen to your Danbu after the war between your Danbu and the Xi clan? ”

Yelubai fell into deep thought: "My Danbu will definitely lose its strength......"

"However, when the strength of your Danbu is greatly reduced, do you think the Dahe clan can still be as united as it is now? What are the consequences of disunity? ”

"This ...... They ......"

"They will try their best to avoid the battle to preserve their strength, and wait until the battle to divide the victory!"

Yelubai didn't speak, he knew that the Dahe clan could stop the downward trend, it was because of Danbu's strong wrist, Xu Qing continued: "Moreover, even if they don't play carefully, your Dahe clan swallowed the Xi clan, and the Turks can watch you become bigger?" ”

"When the time comes, Bohai will not be able to withstand the attack of your Dahe clan, so he will take refuge in Goguryeo and attack you in the south, and the Turks will fight you in the west, will there be any hope for the Dahe clan to win?"

Yelubai sighed: "Alas, the Dahe clan after the war must be weak, and it is completely impossible to resist two strong troops......"

"What if, after the war, the Oga clan is not weak?"

"How is that possible?"

"If someone sneaks up on you from behind, it's possible."

Yelubai lowered his head and tried his best to calculate the gains and losses in his heart, and after considering the threats from other tribes and the Turks, he swallowed his saliva: "If the conditions of the Bohai people are reasonable, it would be good to have an assistant who can sneak attack behind the scenes." ”

"Two conditions, one of them, after the war, the Xi people will be divided into ......"

"Impossible! The Xi people were defeated by us, and the Bohai people are just helping, so why should they share it with you? ”

"You heard clearly, it's a share, not an equal share, don't say that you don't want to divide it equally, even if you divide it equally, Bohai can't eat such a big sheep!"

"Shared? How much? ”

"Three thousand men, five thousand horses, and two and eight points for cattle and sheep. Moreover, you can tell more about outsiders, and all of them will be sent to your Danbu. ”

Jerebael was noncommittal: "What about the second condition? ”

"Lend me 3,000 cavalry to reject Goguryeo!"

"Oh, I said, how did Bohai come up with such a plan!" Yelu Bai snorted: "The Bohai Kingdom itself is difficult to protect, what do you want to support our clan?" ”

"You should have heard that Bohai defeated thousands of cavalry of the Xi tribe in one fell swoop with thousands of infantry, right?"

Yelu Bai was awe-inspiring, didn't he just hear the news and decided to send troops to the Xi clan?

An hour later, Xu Qing and Yelubai returned to the sweat tent with ruddy faces. At this time, everyone has eaten and drunk enough, and some of them who have good digestion have begun to feel empty in their stomachs again. Seeing Yelubai come back, he knew that the "discussed matter" had already had a result, so he stretched out his head and looked at it one by one.

Indeed, after an hour of verbal bickering, the two men came to the following agreement:

The Dahe clan lent 3,000 troops to Xu Qing in exchange for Xu Qing's 3,000 crossbowmen (Xu Qing's blind breaking) to flank the Dahe clan at a certain time.

Three thousand cavalry could set out, walk on the border of the steppe and desert, reach the Bohai Sea in three days, and participate in the battle in five days.

After the war, the Xi people's territory was divided equally between one-fourth of the Bohai Sea, one-third of the captured slaves, and equally among the cattle, sheep and horses (in fact, the Bohai Sea was one-quarter). In this way, the Dahe clan will not dominate the Xi people, let alone East Asia, and the vigilance of the Turks will be greatly reduced. As for whether the Dahe clan will turn around and deal with Bohai after the Xi clan has digested it, it is not something that Xu Qing can consider. This agreement is nothing written, it all depends on the mutual trust between Xu Qing and Yelubai. If you want to obey it, you will naturally abide by it, and if you don't want to obey it, it is useless to engrave the agreement in stone.

Someone asked, since the Dahe cavalry can make a detour to the Bohai Sea, why don't they directly divide their troops into two places, and one goes around to the back and directly attacks them?

First, the strength of the Dahe clan is not much stronger than that of the Xi clan, and it is too dangerous to divide the troops, but it can allow the Xi clan to break through. If only 3,000 people are divided, it will not cause the strength to weaken. Second, the three thousand cavalry were separated, but the combat effectiveness of the cavalry, even if it was a sneak attack, it would not cause much damage to the Xi people, which was really chicken. And the strong crossbowmen in Xu Qing's hands are different, they are the sharp weapons of the Great Breaking Cavalry!

When he finished doing this, it was the day before the defeat of Breaking Hongchen, and the two armies were facing each other.

When leaving, all the leaders came to see Xu Qing off and gave him some exquisite fur clothes. But the weather is too hot, I sweat when I wear a dress, why do I send so many fur coats? Xu Qing glanced back with resentment, those grassland men were suddenly a little embarrassed, and on the grassland, there were only these valuables that could be sent.

Seeing this, Xu Qing was relieved, those two solid-colored fox furs were still good. This is genuine, not a chemical textile, walking on the road with a fox fur to appreciate, I can't put it down.

"Whew!"

As soon as Xu Qing returned to the place where his group was stationed, two "tigers", one large and one small, pounced, Huang Shimei and Xu Qi held one of Xu Qing's hands, opened their mouths and started biting. Frightened, Xu Qing took two fox furs as a block, but heard:

"Huh? This dress is so beautiful! ”

"It's okay that Xu Qing has a little conscience, but this dress is so big, how can I wear it!"

In the blink of an eye, the two fox furs had already arrived in the hands of Huang Shimei and Xu Qi, and they couldn't stop making a gesture with the fox furs, and the one who hated the big clothes was naturally Xu Qi.

Xu Qi found out that something was wrong, handed over the fox fur to Huang Shimei, pounced again, and was caught by Xu Qing: "You listen, you really belong to a dog!" ”

Xu Qi gritted his teeth: "Hmph! What about my gifts? ”

Xu Qing blinked, Xu Qi suddenly let go of Xu Qing happily, and saw him touch it mysteriously into his arms: "Little dog, this tooth of the Steppe Wolf King will send you to ward off evil spirits!" ”
