Chapter 35 'Chicken Ribs'
Speaking of this, Geng Liao suddenly realized something, and turned to a word: "Immediately send someone to report the battle situation of the right army to Zhongdu... Emperor Xiaowu... It is true that it can no longer be withdrawn, even if it is withdrawn, it will be withdrawn, and there will be something to say and merit to withdraw, and what the right army is doing is the foundation of the current general! ”
"But the general should know that we..."
Gu Kaizhi wanted to say something, but Geng Liao stopped saying: "You still join the army, why don't you use your brain, the courage of the right army has begun to appear, and there is nothing wrong with their loyalty to the country, since three thousand people can withstand tens of thousands of barbarians, I will send another five thousand people to leave them a way to survive, so they will be grateful, even if they return from defeat, I have something to say, don't forget, the courage of the soldiers in the north is the prestige of the Xia Dynasty, if the retreat before this makes the men in the north of the army complain, it will be difficult for me as a general in the future!" ”
"The general has a far-reaching mind, but the last general is reckless!" Gu Kaizhi bowed in response and bowed to himself. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Yandong Whistle Town.
Looking from afar, the smoke and dust are drifting, even if it is daylight, but the dull and dim is still like a huge barrier covering everything, on the wall of the sentry town, King Jing Yuyin of Qin is looking into the distance, the battle for days makes him look very pale, and the more obvious edges and corners of his face make it highlight a bit of solemnity.
"Your Highness, the wind is blowing!"
Jin Yu whispered, let the queen put a fur fur on Jing Yuyin, but Jing Yuyin was anxious, and then moved his shoulders, and the fur fell to the ground, Yang Mao on the side sighed softly, and said: "Your Highness, this is just a threat order... It's not the worst..."
Before Yang Mao finished speaking, Jing Yuyin had already gritted his teeth and spoke: "The third brother is really beautiful with this hand, and he is guilty of the enemy's illness, but before leaving, he made my Hexi realm into a mess, I can't wait..."
"Your Highness, trouble comes from the mouth, words must be acted on, don't confide!"
Yang Mao was afraid that Jing Yuyin would say something rebellious in his anger, so he immediately shouted to stop him, and ten steps away, the commanders of Lin, Xiang, and Li Sancheng made He Ji, Jiang Gan, Zhang Ji and other generals take a few steps back with a very eye-catching look, and only stood up in front of the city wall ladder.
"This battle is a wreck!"
Xing was infected by the King of Qin, Li Cheng commanded Zhang Ji to be irritable, He Ji and Jiang Gan both sighed when they heard it, and He Ji said loudly: "How is it not?" Imagine that I am a good soldier, when did I suffer from this kind of wretched spirit? Now the northern border of Hexi, Xiaowu Emperor, Liaoyuan several major military systems are their own, our city defense army is actually used as a border army, even if the desperate bloody battle, it still can't enter the eyes of the generals and princes, in addition to this, we must be careful with our words, for fear that if one is wrong, we will lose our heads! ”
"At present, the light cavalry of our three cities has been almost lost, and if we continue to fight, we will become single generals, how will His Royal Highness the King of Qin treat us at that time!" Jiang Gan was worried.
Since the king of Qin ordered the soldiers and light cavalry of several cities in the north to go to Yancheng to fight against the northern barbarians, there were still more than 6,000 light cavalry battalions of the commanders of the three cities, but after the continuous fighting, there are only about 4,000 people left, Zhang Jiqiang in Licheng, and about 2,000, and He Ji in Xiangcheng and Jiang Gan in Lincheng only have more than 1,000 left. Apparently impossible.
When the commander of the three cities was secretly worried, Jing Yuyin was still immersed in the forbidden edict of Zhongdu and could not ease his mind.
Half a month ago, the news of the collapse of Emperor Xiaowu's army reached Yandong Sentry Town, which really surprised Jing Yuyin, and even more, it was rumored that it was caused by himself, the King of Qin, who secretly instructed the Hexi Army to deliberately ignore it, so how could the King of Qin endure such slander.
As a result, without waiting for him to shout the word wronged, His Majesty Zhongdu issued an order to press back the Hexi Army that he had transferred to Yancheng in the north to resist the barbarians, and there was no will, and it was never allowed to mobilize a soldier again, but the situation in Yancheng became more and more dangerous, and the entire Yancheng in the north, the Lanhe Valley to the source town was already full of barbarians, and countless fleeing people were in front of him, and he was supported by the 10,000 light feather battalions he had previously dispatched for nearly two months, and he was already exhausted, and there were no reinforcements, and the rout of Jing Yuyin would inevitably become a foregone conclusion.
"Master, what should I do? Now this king suddenly discovered that the barbarian army is not terrible, what is terrible is the merry that cannot be seen, touched, or avoided! Jing Yuyin sighed, he suppressed the sleepiness, like a dragon trapped in the shallows, even if the clear sky was in front of him, but he couldn't leap after all.
Facing the predicament of King Qin, although Yang Mao had an estimate in his heart, but they were in the north, how could they control the situation in the central capital, which was thousands of miles away? Even when Yang Mao heard that King Yan had complained about his illness and pleaded guilty, this scholar had already reacted, but it was too late, because King Qin had already fallen into the storm and became the target of everyone.
After a short period of thought, Yang Mao said in a low voice: "Your Highness, for the current predicament, the old minister only has a turnover strategy of death before life!" ”
"Master, please speak!"
"Defeated and returned, retreated slowly, retreated to Licheng, handed over the military power, entered the central capital with illness, and let the barbarians plunder in the north!"
"What?" Jing Yuyin was stunned, he couldn't understand it, and he didn't want to understand it, but since Yang Mao said it, it must be the best buffer turning strategy in this situation.
Under the entanglement of the dilemma, Jing Yuyin's atmosphere has not yet smoothed out, and the horn in the distance came again, in this regard, Yang Mao immediately surrendered his hand: "Your Highness, let's go, take this opportunity to take your own path, the world and politics will always be so changeable, just imagine, you are willing to die for the king, but the king does not see his loyalty and bravery, you are willing to avoid it for the sake of brotherhood and brotherhood, but I don't know that the brothers regard you as an enemy..."
In these words, Jing Yuyin's mind was slowly changing, and when the figure of a brute horse appeared in the distance, Jing Yuyin had already taken the horse and rushed out of the sentry town with the light feather battalion, and rushed to this distant land of smoke and dust...
At the mouth of the valley of the slope forest on the north slope of Xiaodang Mountain, the Xiyue tribe had already set up camp, looking at the hill that had dimmed, Shebulin Ejin called Borb Dahesa and said, "What is the situation of the other tribes?" ”
Bolbu took out the wax pill superstition sent back by the scattered horse, and said: "The master beggars are still staying in Liaoqiu, there is no change, more than a dozen tribes such as the master and the main erke, and the Boli tribe are all in Yanxi, more than a month ago, they defeated the Xia army that set out from Hexi to the north, it seems to be called what Xiaowu Emperor, as for the green wolf, wild fox and other tribes in the southern grassland, now I am afraid that they have bypassed the source town and entered the Lin, Xiang and other regions!" ”
Hearing that the wild fox and the green wolf had entered the inner realm, Sheblin gritted his teeth angrily: "These filthy beasts! Sumata should send them a plague and let them die! ”
