Chapter 105: The comet is seen in the southwest

Throughout the history of the Great Xia Dynasty, every time a battle with a foreign enemy failed, the ultimate reason was caused by an epidemic, right? This is just like a law, not to mention, the matter of South Liangguan and North Liangguan is like a lesson from the past.

No, Mu Nanfeng must be reminded and asked to report to the Liangzhou Military Department, otherwise it may be too late by then!

Thinking so, Qin Yi stood up with his fists clenched and said, "General, this matter, in my opinion, needs to be taken seriously!" When the epidemic is epidemic, it is the time when the soldiers are tired, if the Xirong army takes the opportunity to storm our Xiliangguan, then the final result can be imagined! ”

As soon as he said this, many people fell silent.

None of the many officials and leaders who were able to gather in the Great Tent to discuss matters was simple. More or less, they all know some martial arts, and they have enough knowledge reserves, so they understand what Qin Yi means very well.

Mu Nanfeng also belongs to that type of person.

He listened to what Qin Yi said and fell silent. The epidemic in Xiliangguan has been spread in the barracks for a long time. Even, many times, everyone is worried about whether they will be infected. Even if Liu's illness has passed, it may not be able to control the epidemic.

Mu Nanfeng knows very well where the epidemic in Xiliangguan comes from, which is inseparable from the North Liangguan and South Liangguan.

"This one thing, I will write it on the paperwork!"

The current Ningde battalion is closest to the front line, and all military documents have to pass through here, which means that major matters on the front line must be submitted through here.

"That's good!"

Everyone nodded one after another, and the sullen breath that was originally suppressed in their hearts gradually exhaled.

Including Qin Yi, many people gave feedback on some problems, and Mu Nanfeng solved them, and it was not until the evening that this meeting was over.

At night, above the sky, the stars are shining brightly, blinking their eyes, but in this peaceful and peaceful night, Xiliangguan is not calm. Outside the pass, countless Xirong soldiers attacked the city gate day and night, and they were constantly climbing the city wall, trying to capture this key point.

However, the hardness of the walls of Xiliangguan and the protection of the city gates far exceeded their expectations. Although the Sijon army had bombarded the place with trebuchets, it only damaged the attic above the city wall, and the city wall itself was unscathed.

The location where Xiliangguan is located is a canyon, a city wall, which is displayed in the center of the canyon and has become the junction of Xirong and Daxia.

The canyon itself is not wide, so there are very few Xidong troops who can enter here to attack Xiliangguan.

Such a situation is saddened by the commander of this Xirong army, Ouyang Yuan. At this time, he was pacing in the desert tent outside Yin Mountain, carefully studying the map of Yin Mountain.

"General, let's rest!" The guards on the side seemed to be unable to stand Ouyang Yuan being so tired, and kindly reminded, "It's been more than a month of continuous attack, and there is no effect, do you want to ask for reinforcements!" ”

"Reinforcements? Hum! You kid knows a ball! Ouyang Yuan glanced at the guards, and then his face flashed with sorrow, "It's not a question of how many people there are!" Xiliangguan occupies a favorable location, the canyon is too narrow, we can't invest large-scale troops, and the city wall is more than 20 zhang thick, and there are six city gates, it is simply an unsolvable pass! ”

"This is not a pass, but a fortress!"

After speaking, Ouyang Yuan slammed on the map. He understood that with such a terrain, the strong attack was ineffective, and so far, they had only broken through the outermost layer of the city gate, which could be regarded as not advancing an inch.

Seeing this, the guards stood silently aside, while Ouyang Yuan was still looking at the map.

Suddenly, a soldier rushed in in a panic: "Report to the general, in the southeast of the desert, a comet has appeared!" ”

"Comet?" Ouyang Yuan was stunned when he heard this, and immediately thought about it, "The person who heard about Great Xia, the one they don't like the most is the comet, right?" The extremely stupid dynasty still dares to be arrogant, it is just a snowball flying in the sky, and it is even regarded as a bad omen! In this case, the general will take this opportunity to get rid of the guards of Xiliangguan and provide convenience for our army! ”

After Ouyang Yuan finished speaking, he summoned left and right, whispered, and began to teach his secret plan.

As the soldier reported, above the desert at this time, above the bright sky, a comet was flying rapidly, and the tail that crossed the entire sky emitted a dazzling white light, illuminating the entire night sky as if it were day.

At the same time, this phenomenon was also observed in the Si Tian Prison of Great Xia. Si Tianjian's supervisor was already pale, without the slightest blood: "Ring the heavenly bell quickly!" ”

The Heavenly Bell, one of the contact methods for emergencies in Great Xia, is limited to the use of Si Tianjian. Once an abnormal celestial phenomenon occurs, it will be ringed to inform the officials of the entire capital, and the emperor. Even when the emperor was sleeping, he had to have a court meeting.

Xia Chang hadn't fallen asleep at this time, when he heard the sound of the heavenly bell, his heart trembled, and he walked out of the palace in the direction of the Jinluan Palace. As soon as he walked out of the palace gate and looked up at the sky, he found a flash of light, heading towards the southwest, and he couldn't help but be frightened, as if he had thought of something.

"What happened?"

As soon as he walked into the Jinluan Palace, Xia Chang asked.

"Where is the supervisor of Si Tianjian?"

"Your Majesty, in the southeast of Xirong and in the southwest of Great Xia, a comet has appeared, its light shining throughout the sky, and the tail of a broom covering the entire territory of Great Xia."

"This is a bad omen, please go to the Taimiao for divination!"

After Si Tian Jian Zheng Guo Shouyi waited for Xia Chang to sit on the dragon chair, he immediately stepped forward to report. Naturally, he didn't dare to hide such a big thing. And while reporting the celestial phenomena, he also gave a solution.

"Seventeen years ago, there was also a comet, and it was ...... at that moment"

When Xia Chang heard this, he said a word, but suddenly stopped.

"The southeast of Xirong, the southwest of Great Xia, isn't that the land of Xiliangguan?"

Cao You gave up, he was proficient in these things.

"Could it be that there is a change in Xiliangguan? If it is a bad omen, can it be said that Xiliang Pass is lost? Or is it that the guards of Xiliangguan surrendered to Xirong? Or is there something wrong with Xia Chun, the king of the eight sages? I see that the Eight Sages King's desire to control power has become more and more powerful recently, maybe he will take advantage of this opportunity to train new soldiers, and he will have to support his own troops! ”

"Hmph, Cao You, be careful when you speak! Lian Zheng is the general recommended by this general to replace Qiao Shi, who died in battle, to guard Xiliang Pass! ”

As soon as Wei Shen heard this, he was furious.

"The Eight Sages King is even more loyal, how can he support his own army and disobey the emperor? This is just an ordinary celestial phenomenon, please rest assured, Your Majesty! ”

Xia Chang listened to Wei Yan and Cao You's words, and was a little undecided, he looked at Guo Shouyi again, and finally made up his mind: "Ladies and gentlemen, follow me to Taimiao!" ”

At the same time, in the Ningde camp, Qin Yi happened to get up at night, and he just saw the scene of the comet flying in the sky, and then he thought of something, his face became ugly, and his mouth was also you, and there were words in his mouth: "On September 15, the seventh year of Yanping, the comet was seen in the northwest ......."
