One hundred and two, four sides of the song
This night, Diao didn't sleep peacefully, Tuoba Heiyun didn't sleep, he couldn't sleep at all, he was known for his cunning and elegance in the Tuoba family, he was now like a madman, his black hair was turning white at a visible speed, and if it weren't for his strong self-control, he would have collapsed in an instant.
He sent 50,000 men to open up the supply line, not only did it not open it, but it was also broken and scattered in one day, and the outstanding Wei Ming Shouquan was already unable to accept the result, and he didn't even run back to defend what was going on, so he left many remnants of the defeated army and committed suicide, and those collapsed armies, some of them were taken prisoner, and some were still running around in the area controlled by the Eastern Xia, and were rounded up by the Eastern Xia soldiers and civilians in various garrisons at night.
This unacceptable result seems to be a nightmare, and it is only the beginning of the nightmare, coupled with the many facts and signs before, it sharply gathered a terrible speculation for him: Did Dongxia lay a terrible trap for me, I didn't see through it, but because of the superstition of Da Chen's strength, he led an army of 300,000 to get in?
Otherwise?
Why did Dongxia have an absolute advantage in the field war, but opened the way to Gaonu?
Is it true that because they are short of troops, the main force is exhausted by the repeated battles, and the follow-up forces are not up in time?
Why did the troops of Eastern Xia come up and not rush to attack, dragging Chen Guo to attack Gaonu?
Why did the Eastern Xia confrontation camp not loosen after cutting off the supply line, and it was not obvious that they were adding troops to the supply line?
Before the battle of Gaonu, not only did he expand the black clouds, but the entire Chen court believed according to the information obtained: since the beginning of the contact, the king of Dongxia Dia Bird has already exposed his talent in military affairs, after getting the Dongxia, he has a country as a support, he will definitely not be willing to be lonely, and the 50,000 troops trained must not be easy to deal with, not to be underestimated, and during the war, the number of his army can be expanded to about 100,000......
However, no matter what, these 100,000 troops or even a little more, only the original 50,000 can ensure that they are well-trained and well-equipped, plus he sent troops out of an agreement with Jingkang in the Central Plains, he may not be willing to send out his nest, Chen Guo has prepared 300,000 for it, which is enough to annihilate him.
Maybe he will be devastated by this.
He Dia Niao went to Baolan, maybe he saw through this, and there was no next move, it was because he was smart, and he didn't dare to move.
How did it come to this?
Tuoba Heiyun gave up the pride brought by Chen Guo and lit the lights on several important Tuoba generals with trembling fingers...... Listening to them, in fact, they didn't hear much at all.
One after another, Yeli Youxin was lost, and the name guarded all these old Tuoba people, how many such generals are there in the entire Tuoba clan? At present, the 50,000 army is said to be defeated, I don't know how many people died, how many people were captured, and the influence on the military heart is huge, and many generals in the army are not old Tuoba people, he will be with the old Tuoba people, and fight with the Eastern Xia together, waiting for the rescue of the old Khan? Perhaps, after dawn, the news of the disappearance of 50,000 people has been broadcast to the various camps, and when the time comes, what will be the reaction of those generals who are not old Tuobas?
He interrupted the words of a general and asked hoarsely: "Among the generals, there are 10,000 households, and above 10,000 commanders, how many of our old Tuoba people?" ”
The one who really masters the number is a Yongren.
This Yongren named Shi Guangyou was rescued by him on the battlefield, and over the years, he has been planning for him, and out of the wooing and among them, he married the woman of the clan for Shi Guangyou, and gradually integrated it into the Tuoba clan. Shi Guangyou sat on his right side and whispered, "There are still forty-eight commanders and generals with more than 10,000 households in the army, and there are only twelve old Tuoba people...... Including His Royal Highness Tuoba Alscorn and the unreassuring Lee Hyori. ”
Although Tuoba Alsm had a guard, he did not have a large army of soldiers and horses.
Lee Hyo-ri?
He is the nephew of the Tuoba clan, but his generals do not have the Tuoba clan, they are all his own clansmen, and a few years ago, his uncle who raised him was executed by the Khan's court because he was involved in a factional dispute...... It is said that Lee Hyori hid his cousin, and when he couldn't hide it, he secretly sent it to Yongting.
If it weren't for the soldiers in his hands, the Khan Court would not have turned a blind eye.
Several important generals here are among the remaining ten.
There are very few people out there except them.
In the past, they sought to seize power, and the Khan's court suppressed them from embezzling other tribes, and at this moment, they turned out old accounts and said: "Marshal Heiyun, you see, if these generals are replaced by our old Tuoba clan, there will not be so many things. ”
Tuoba Heiyun smiled bitterly.
If it's not your people, how can you be suppressed by outsiders?
Just like Li Xiaoli, almost all of his commanders are from his clan, and they are all fed with money and friendship, if he is forced to replace him and invade his clan, will he still submit to the Khan's court?
Khan Court doesn't know how to capture everyone in his own hands? In the hands of the old Tuobas?
These foreign generals come from dozens of nationalities, and the real weak and easy-to-give people have long been washed away, and now they all have a firm grasp of military power in their hands.
Capturing a 10,000-strong team is equivalent to one more enemy with a 10,000-strong team.
At this time, do you take this kind of selfish desire as a pity?
Tuoba Black Cloud had a headache.
According to this number, if the army is unstable, it may not be impossible to suppress the military spirit if it can control one-third of the army, after all, those ten thousand households, thousands of households, large and small generals are scattered, and as long as the old Tuoba people are closely around the Khan Court, the problem is not too big, but if the old Tuoba people still exclude dissidents at this time, it will be a big disaster.
And he said, "When is it?" I still want to catch the people. Can you be nicer to the foreigners? Suppression is suppression, don't talk like this nonsense again. ”
Several generals have repeatedly assured.
Tuoba Heiyun then asked, "What about His Highness Als?" ”
Shi Guangyou said sneeringly: "Scatter." ”
He didn't dare to thin the Tuoba clan's relatives, but praised: "The current situation is uncertain, we are all anxious to be like this, but His Royal Highness is fine, it is really a dragon and a phoenix among people, and there is a great style of celebrities." ”
Tuoba Heiyun had no choice but to follow: "Yes." At that time, Hino Rishi had faith and ambush, and his appearance was not something that ordinary people could do. He thought for a moment and said: "I Tuoba Black Cloud has fallen into his Dia Bird's plan, or if I am incompetent, I can't take hundreds of thousands of troops of our Chen Dynasty to death, and the top priority at the moment is to stabilize the morale of the army, ask for help from the Khan Court, and test his defense line in Eastern Xia, even if I can't see which weakness they have, I can know whether they want to eat our 300,000." Don't cross the Qinghua Beach lightly at night, Dongxia won, but retreated, and did not arrange a defensive line there, indicating that it was a small pocket...... Don't tell anyone to tell me that I will pull hundreds of thousands of people across Qinghuatan overnight. ”
Someone immediately asked: "Who told the marshal to let hundreds of thousands of people go to Qinghuatan?" ”
Shi Guangyou replied on his behalf: "Lee Hyori." ”
Someone immediately said hatefully, "It's him again." What does he mean? The king of Dongxia is the strongest there, doesn't he know? If you want me to see it, he is not right-minded, so he simply arrested him. ”
Shi Guangyou looked at Tuoba Black Cloud.
Tuoba Heiyun said: "Li Xiaoli is just a normal reaction, once the Khan Court comes to rescue us, he will definitely go straight to Lingwu." If hundreds of thousands of people can rush through Qinghuatan overnight, they will stand on the back of Lingwu and crush the space of Lingwu's garrison, which is conducive to the Khan's court reinforcements attacking Lingwu, which may not be undesirable. However, the risks taken are huge, and even if we break through Qinghuatan, the space for our 300,000 troops to operate will suddenly be extremely narrow. He said, "Since you are all here." Let's go up together at night, observe the enemy camp, and find a few temptations after daybreak. ”
Several Tuoba generals didn't dare to slack off, even if they wanted to be lazy, they couldn't say that they wanted to go back to the camp to sleep when their lives were hanging by a thread, so they came out with him and set off with the guards.
They did not go straight to Qinghua Beach, but went north, in order to create conditions for the siege of Gaonu in the north, the army of Chen State set up many camps to the side of the small river, and the army of Dongxia was on the other bank.
Now go straight here to observe the enemy camp, and there will be almost no danger.
When I arrived at the river, there were bonfires all over the place, making a huge noise, as if they were singing and dancing, Tuoba Heiyun had heard his subordinates say it, and he had come to see it, as if the energy of the Dongxia people had no end, as if they had never been afraid of war, and every night, they could make such a noise.
The sparkling waves of the small river shimmered, and only one river separated, it was like two worlds. The camp opposite seems to always glow with fire and singing, while his own camp seems to be always gloomy. Somehow, Tuoba Heiyun trembled a little, he wrapped his clothes, and asked himself in his heart: Is this their confidence in victory? Do the ordinary soldiers of Eastern Xia also believe that they can win?
I don't know when, the guards on the opposite side seem to have pulled people out, and a long line was arranged along the river, and soon, it seemed that people from other camps had also come out, and torches could be connected along the riverside...... Tuoba Heiyun's team was taken aback, and they all ran to Tuoba Heiyun and said, "Marshal." Let's go. Are they going to cross the river overnight? ”
Tuoba Heiyun hurriedly sent the herald back, so that the camp by the river would be on guard and come out to defend the river beach, while he himself still had to observe, and led people to a wasteland. There are reeds here, and it is easy to hide their tracks from the sight of Battle, who has excellent vision on the other side.
They had just entered the reeds when singing sounded across from them.
The torches walked in circles like swimming dragons, and the song was sent from low to high across the riverbank.
On this bank, Chen Guo's army was afraid that they would cross the river overnight, so they should also go out of camp and rush to the riverside, but they didn't expect that the other side was just singing.
One of the generals beside Tuoba Heiyun suddenly tilted his ears and said in disbelief: "Marshal." It's the singing of our old Tuoba people. ”
Tuoba Black Cloud was taken aback.
Unlike those battle songs that fought bloody battles and swore to the death, this is a lyrical warm tune......
In the blink of an eye, I don't know how many people sang along, and their voices rolled over the river.
The guards were stunned in the reeds.
Tuoba Heiyun was also stunned for a while, and he asked in a panic, "Who is singing this?" Who is this singing with them? ”
He hurriedly found Shi Guangyou, pointed at the opposite side with a horsewhip, and asked him sideways: "Sir." Do you know what they're doing? ”
Shi Guangyou swallowed.
Under his repeated questioning, Shi Guangyou asked him: "Has the marshal ever heard of the embattled allusions?" ”
Tuoba Black Cloud has heard.
He suddenly realized, and he muttered: "No wonder singing this song of male and female love, full of hunters, and beautiful mountains and rivers turns out to be a heart-attack." ”
Chen Guo's army came up in the blink of an eye.
I don't know when it started, some people also sang along, and more and more people sang along.
The army of Chen Guo who came up was the nearest one outside the riverside, and the generals also came to meet Tuoba Heiyun.
Tuoba Black Cloud rebuked them, saying, "What are you singing? Don't let the soldiers sing, the other side is attacking the heart. ”
The generals went up and shouted, but this one was not sung, but there were countless pairs of starry eyes on the other side of the river, but there were other people singing in the distance.
Tuoba Heiyun was about to make people sing a military song, but the other side of the river stopped singing, and someone said in the dialect of the Tuoba clan: "Brothers on the other side of the river." Is there any of us old Tuoba people? I am Tuoba Genyan, the Tuoba Genyan of the Zhida Jin Branch, do you have my relatives on the other side of the river? ”
Tuoba Heiyun was taken aback, especially the person who spoke, he listened to the voice, pure and fluent.
Many people flocked to the river beach, they should all be old Tuoba clansmen, probably wondering if this person is their own clan.
Tuoba Heiyun did not dare to estimate the impact of this person on the morale of the army.
He wanted to send someone to shoot the person who spoke, but he didn't know where the sound came from, not to mention that many Dongxia people followed to learn to speak, so that more people on the other side of the river could hear it, and he wanted to send people, but he didn't know who to shoot.
The people on the other side of the river shouted: "I really Tuoba Genyan, when you moved into Chenzhou, our group came to stay in the grassland of Tuoba Pass, suffered from wind and frost, and guarded the northern frontier for the Khanting." ”
Someone on the other side of the river responded loudly: "I am also a branch of Dajin, and I haven't been back for many years, is the grassland okay?" The Central Plains is rich, I now have thousands of households, and when I left, I was only a ten-strong commander. That's right. Are you my patriarch's cousin? ”
The other side of the river shouted, "Yes." ”
Tuoba Heiyun was relieved, after all, the people who followed the Khan Court were already rich.
On the other side of the river, he said, "That's right." That's me. You are rich, with hundreds of people, but we are in the Khan's court, guarding the northern frontier for the Khan's court, suffering from wind and sand, snow disasters for many years, and living a hard life, but you have forgotten us. You are rich, but do you remember the people who guarded the grassland for you? This is just an introduction, and said: "This year, Tuoba Jiuxing came to Tuoba Pass, and there is no one on our grassland who is not envious, and no one does not revolve around him...... But you know what? It is because of him, the ancestral home of our Tuoba Pass, that the ...... has been ruined."
He shouted, "That's the place where our ancestors live in Longxing. Where your father, your father's father, had herded his horses for generations, it was destroyed. ”
A general beside Tuoba Heiyun said: "He said that this is what makes our Tuoba clan people have the same hatred." ”
Tuoba Heiyun hurriedly stretched out his hand to stop him and let him listen again.
Na Tuoba Genyan shouted loudly again: "He Tuoba Jiuxing said that he was ordered by the Khan's court to suddenly lead his troops into Dongxia, kill, loot, besiege the king of Dongxia, and provoke a war between the two countries. I would like to ask the people on the southern bank, why did the Khan court regard Dongxia as an enemy when it was so far away from the Khan's court? And suddenly the army was raised, and they didn't say a word to us. Tuoba Jiuxing ignored it, and entered the Eastern Xia, which angered the king of the Eastern Xia, and the army of the Eastern Xia went out of Baolan, approached the Tuoba Pass, and asked us if we knew if we knew, and when we looked back, where did we know, in order to keep the land of Longxing, we reconciled with them. Tuoba Jiuxing said that we surrendered to Eastern Xia, broke through our camp, our own camp, and attacked our own people in the ancestral land, do you know? ”
This is also not light, not heavy, not painful or itchy, Tuoba Heiyun breathed a sigh of relief, what does Tuoba Jiuxing do? How can it represent the Khan's court?
However, the other side of the river said, "Yes." I surrendered to Dongxia, there was no way, it was forced by Tuoba Jiuxing. Tuoba Jiuxing's invasion of Eastern Xia was also the cause of this great war, and he was ordered by the Khan's court to use force against the people of Eastern Xia for no reason, killing the famous Batel such as Samar of Eastern Xia...... The king of Dongxia received me, and he told me that Dongxia did not want to fight, and the lives of the people of Dongxia were very precious, and their king regarded everyone as a treasure, and would rather eat only one piece of meat at a meal, and the palace should not be built, and the king's tent should not be erected, but also to reproduce the people. They didn't want to fight, but they didn't expect the Khan Court to attack them...... So the king of Dongxia gave an order, and millions of soldiers were raised in the country. ”
There was a commotion on the other side of the river, and someone shouted, "What did you say? How could there be a million troops in Eastern Xia? ”
Tuoba Black Cloud was also wrapped in clothes by the river wind.
The other side of the river shouted, "It's a million." The king of Dongxia cherishes the people, and the people on the grassland know it, so he travels thousands of miles, driving cattle and sheep, and only one Lele cart, all come to him, he treats everyone equally, it is me, such a desperate general, he is also gracious, he has twenty-one official ranks in Dongxia, I have a thousand households, he gave me the title of eleventh level, and said that he would send me to be the county lord equivalent to ten thousand households. I, an old Tuoba, have all been impressed by him, let alone others? At first, I didn't believe it when I said that he had sent an army of a million, but I saw that there was a sea of people, like rivers and seas, lined up in a column a mile wide, marching here in a steady stream...... This is what I saw with my own eyes. That's right. Someone told me that in fact, the army of the real Eastern Xia Kingdom was only 600,000, 300,000 was borrowed by Gao Xian, and 100,000 was followed by the Northern Meng. If you don't believe me, I'm looking for the high-ranking people and fierce people on the riverbank, and asking them to sue you, is it true? ”
Someone on the other side of the river immediately said in a high-profile tone: "That's right. We Gao Xian and Dongxia Yuan out of a family, we fight our own war, that is the gap between brothers, you invade Dongxia, our tiger god said, to lend 300,000 troops to the king of Dongxia, if it is not enough, we will borrow another 300,000. ”
The people on the other side of the river felt that the world was spinning, and their hands and feet trembled, and someone asked, "Do you have 600,000 people?" ”
On the other side of the river, he laughed and said: "You Chen Guo is still in Chenzhou, but we Gao Xian have entered Jingkang Pass, and then Jingkang has to negotiate peace with us and persuade us to withdraw from the army, do you say it?" ”
The people on this side of the river were dumb at once.
The Tuoba Genyan also said: "The grasslands are packed with millions of troops, and if you don't believe in the war, you will know." But the king of Dongxia is a person who cherishes the people, he will not take the lives of his soldiers only to kill and injure 100,000 people, yesterday he gathered the generals together, and told us that the people of Chen are also people, they don't know who provoked the war, they are all driven by the generals to fight, and the Dongxia country should not seek revenge against ordinary Chen people, the king of Dongxia also said that he is willing to give the soldiers of Chen a way to live, he is not fighting for people to die, but for people to live, he hopes that you will become Dongxia people to survive, I don't want you to be forced to die by the generals of Chen Guo who don't cherish you. ”
These words are actually close to Dia Bird's original words.
Even Tuoba Genyan, except for the number of troops, most of the time he said the truth, and in a hurry, the Eastern Xia Kingdom really couldn't beautify Dia Bird's will to perfection. However, it is precisely because this statement is true that it is more credible, and the soldiers of Chen Guo on the riverside are wavering.
Tuoba Black Cloud is also a little unable to withstand this powerful offensive, let alone others?
He instructed: "Stop talking to the river, let people prepare strong bows, shoot a round of arrows, and let them stop Dongxia, the king of Dongxia is worthy of entering the Central Plains, and use all these means." Tell it to go down, it's fake, it's all fake, where did he get 600,000 troops, and King Gao Xian is not a fool, will he borrow 300,000 troops? It's all fake......"
Before the order could be delivered, the people on the other side of the river said: "Soldiers, you hurry up, we have prepared 10,000 stone machines, and there will be stone cannons in the sky later, this is for those who do not believe in it, how powerful our army in Dongxia is." ”
A firework went up to the sky, exploded in the sky, and in a blink of an eye, along the riverside, every two or three miles, there were fireworks in the sky in response, and the Dongxia army on the riverside once again reminded the Chen army to dodge.
A moment later, the sky was filled with swishing stones......
The 10,000 stone generators are fake, the 10,000 stones are real, and the stones are wrapped in the maps of the Dongxia Urgent Print, and there must be a person's name on each map, which is to tell the Chen army, once someone surrenders, after crossing the river, find the Dongxia people according to the name on the map to receive them, so that no one will care about them.
When Tuoba Heiyun walked in the direction of Qinghuatan, someone had already picked up the stone and took the color map on it and sent it to him.
He opened it, and it was a picture of a hunter's godson, an old hunter with his son who had not yet grown up, standing behind a stone, pointing to a tiger and talking, and on the other side of the mountain, the women of the family were looking forward to it. In the lower right corner of the painting, three words are written: Zhang Xiaoshan.
Tuoba Black Cloud roared angrily, tore the paper to shreds, and threw it out.
After throwing the paper, he felt uncomfortable, and asked people to help him dismount, but someone sent a layout, and when he opened it, it was seven or eight young children with hair playing with the hip stone, and a beautiful woman holding a wool felt and looking at it, with her back to them, but it was a soldier who went out to fight farther and farther.
The general who sent Natu said, "What is this Dongxia going to do?" That's how I went, I cried. ”
Tuoba Heiyun's chest tightened for a while, and he unfolded the picture, and his blood churned for a while, and at the same time, his youngest son appeared in his eyes.
He gritted his teeth and said, "Dia Bird is amazing. ”
As soon as he finished speaking, because he was getting closer and closer to Qinghuatan, the army on Qinghuatan retreated, and someone came to report: "Marshal." Dongxia has put our people back a lot...... Most of their generals were killed in battle, and the leaders of the various tribes went up to pick them up. ”
Shi Guangyou asked: "Just put it back like this?" ”
The man said, "That's right. I put it back like this, saying that I wanted to stay in Dongxia and stayed, and I didn't want to stay, so I gave them a meal, and some of them were slightly injured, and they were bandaged, so that they didn't give their lives to Khan Ye anymore, otherwise they would never forgive next time, and they would be released back, and all departments were intercepting people, what should we do? ”
It's another heart-attack.
The tribes intercepted the people, and the people scattered to the various departments, can they not say that the strength of the Dongxia army and the benevolence of the Dongxia army? A meal, a wrapped cloth, a way to live back, no matter how evil a person is, he must read others twice.
Tuoba Heiyun's chest swelled, poofed, and spewed out a mouthful of blood mist, hitting the picture he was holding, and this picture, he didn't want to tear it up, because the young boy in it looked like his young son seven or eight points, because he had been fighting outside for many years, he hadn't seen it for several years.
