Chapter 1034: Wishful thinking shattered
Southeast of Baitan City, in the poplar forest.
In the depths of the dense poplar forest, countless tents were dotted in the forest, and the rude voices of the Xianbei people faintly echoed in the forest.
More than 100,000 Xianbei cavalry arrived at Baitan City three days in advance and hid in this poplar forest, just waiting to ambush the Wei army that came to "sneak attack" Baitan City.
In an open field in the forest, there were terrible howls and cries from time to time.
The open space in front of the Khan's tent was dotted with wooden stakes, and the top was full of Wei captives.
Tuoba Liwei and his Xianbei nobles, bored, shot the Wei prisoners for fun.
Burst!
Tuoba Li shot an arrow, passing a distance of thirty paces, and hit the front door of a Wei pawn.
The surrounding Xianbei nobles clapped their hands and cheered, and the cheers echoed in the forest.
"Tuobaya, let Ben Khan see how your archery skills are doing?" Tuoba Liwei threw the hard bow in his hand to a young Xianbei general.
The little friend's name is Tuoba Ye, no more than twenty years old, but he is the eldest son of Tuoba Liwei, brave and strong, with a heroic and domineering personality, like Tuoba Liwei, and he likes it very much.
Tuoba Liwei sat down, drank mare's milk wine, and enjoyed his son's performance.
Tuoba Liwei took the three-stone bow, easily pulled the bow, aimed slightly, loosened his fingertips, and the sharp arrow left the string.
Burst!
A scream sounded, and a Wei pawn captive thirty paces away was directly poured through his chest.
"Good archery! Tuobaya, your archery skills are improving very quickly! Tuobali clapped his hands slightly.
The surrounding aristocratic generals joined in and applauded.
"Thank you, Father Khan, for the compliment." Tuoba Ye returned the iron-tired bow with both hands to Tuoba Liwei.
Tuoba Li waved his hand slightly: "This bow, Ben Khan will reward you." ”
Tuoba Ye was overjoyed, raised the bow in his hand, and said proudly: "Thank you Father Khan for the reward, he will use this bow rewarded by Father Khan to shoot the thief through the head one day!" ”
"Okay, well, I am waiting for you for this day for my father." Tuobali laughed slightly.
At this moment, a horse scout rushed over, knelt on the ground in a panic, and shouted in a trembling voice: "Qi Khan, the west is urgent, the Su thief led a large army to sneak attack the Eagle Ridge a few days ago, and the king of the west abandoned the bullet Khan Mountain and left, but was intercepted and killed by the Wei army on the way, tens of thousands of soldiers and civilians were wiped out, and the king of the west was also captured alive by the Wei army!" ”
Thundered!
A thunderbolt from a sunny day crashed down in the air and slashed on top of Tuoba Liwei's head.
Tuobali was slightly stunned and changed color, and the smile on his face disappeared in an instant, turning into endless shock.
Tuoba Ye and other generals of the Han Dynasty were all shocked and shouted in an uproar.
Even Sima Yi's expression changed, and his face was shocked.
"Isn't the Su thief going to attack Baitan City, how can he appear in Danhan Mountain?" Tuoba Ye exclaimed in surprise.
Tuoba Liwei's gaze suddenly looked at Sima Yi, and his eyes were full of questioning.
Cold sweat rolled on Sima Yi's forehead, his thoughts flew around, and he suddenly came to his senses, and sighed: "Khan, we have fallen for the plan of the Su thief to divert the tiger from the mountain. ”
"A plan to divert the tiger from the mountain?" Tuobali looked slightly dazed, and he hadn't turned a corner for a while.
Sima Yi said with a bitter face: "That Su thief pretended to crusade against Goguryeo, but in fact, he deliberately played a play for us, he expected that we would guess that his real sneak attack target was Baitan City, and the Khan would lead his army away from the capital of Dan Khan and come to Baitan to ambush." ”
Swallowing his saliva, Sima Yi continued: "Actually, the real target of the Su thief is our Dan Khan capital, when the Khan led the main force to leave, he led another cavalry and took advantage of the situation to attack the Dan Khan City!" ”
Tuoba Li suddenly realized, his eyes burst with anger, and he said in a deep voice: "Sima Zhongda, aren't you resourceful, why were you played by that thief?" ”
Sima Yi said with a bitter face: "I fell for the strategy of the Su thief, but I also reminded the Khan that the Su thief is treacherous, and we should focus on defense when dealing with him, and should not take the initiative to attack, the Khan has to ......."
Sima Yi didn't dare to say any more, because he had already seen Tuoba Liwei turning black.
After all, Tuoba Liwei was too confident at the beginning, and he had to come to Baitan City to ambush the Wei army, so he took away most of the main force of Danhan Mountain.
If Sima Yi continues to talk about it, it will be tantamount to exposing the shortcomings of Tuoba Liwei and pushing the responsibility for the loss of the capital to Tuoba Liwei.
Such a stupid thing, Sima Yizhi is shrewd, how can he do it, so he has to shut up.
Tuoba Liwei didn't want to blame Sima Yi anymore, so he only said indignantly: "Even if we fall for the tricks of the Su thief, how did the Su thief capture the Absolute Eagle Ridge so quickly, and Ben Khan didn't get the slightest warning!?" ”
"Back to the Khan, the Su thief sent someone to pretend to be a caravan, spent the night by the camp of the Absolute Eagle Ridge, and took the opportunity to seize the door, so that he could kill Yuwen Xi and his 4,000 troops, and took the Absolute Eagle Ridge without much effort, and the army easily went out of the fortress and went straight to Danhan Mountain."
When Tuoba Li heard this, he was even more furious, and scolded: "Wen Yuxi, this rice bucket, Ben Khan trusts him so much, and he guards such an important pass of the Absolute Eagle Ridge, he is so useless, waste, waste!" ”
"Even if you lose the Absolute Eagle Ridge, why did Murong Ke flee without a fight, and be annihilated by the Wei army in vain, so many of our soldiers and civilians?" Tuoba Ye questioned.
Sima Yi sighed: "The King of the West only has 10,000 soldiers and horses, although Danhan City is our capital, it is not a strong city, he is afraid that he will not be able to defend it, so he has to abandon the city to join us, but unfortunately he was intercepted and killed by the Su thieves." ”
Tuobali's heart was slightly shocked, and he said hurriedly: "Murong Ke's entire army was wiped out, so what about the cattle, sheep, gold and silver he brought out?" ”
"Hui Khan, all those riches have fallen into the hands of the Su thieves."
Tuobali's heart shook as if he had been hit by a heavy hammer, and he almost had the urge to vomit blood.
He felt the pain of being cut off.
That's nearly 200,000 cattle and sheep, hundreds of millions of dollars, and the wealth he has worked hard for many years to grab from Wei with the Xianbei cavalry.
Such a large sum of money fell into the hands of Su Zhe and became the spoils of the Wei army, how could he not dripping blood in his heart.
"Su thief, Su thief~~" Tuoba Li gritted his teeth slightly, and his eyes spurted blood with hatred.
Tuoba Ye shouted even more angrily: "Father Khan, that Su thief is too deceitful, what are we waiting for, immediately raise 100,000 iron horsemen and go to recapture the city of Dan Khan." ”
As soon as these words came out, a group of Xianbei nobles jumped up one after another, shouting to recapture Dan Khan City and regain the wealth that belonged to them.
"Khan, don't be rash." At this time, Sima Yi sang against everyone.
Tuobali frowned slightly, looked at Sima Yi angrily, and asked, "Why not!" ”
