Chapter 481: A soldier who surrenders without a fight

In fact, after Wu Jue took Yinzhou City, the party people around Quping Village were a little chicken, and they confronted Yinzhou with the Xixia people, and the situation was quite stable. Because of Yinzhou as a bridgehead, there is no need to rely on the party to stand in the Hengshan area. Tuoba Xuan and his party disciples are not liked by the Western Xia people, and they are also not liked by Zhao Yougong, Tuoba Xuan can lead people to make trouble for the Western Xia, and he can also make trouble for Zhao Yougong, and now most of the Hengshan area is under the control of the national army, and Tuoba Xuan's power has changed from the original helper to an unstable dìng factor.

Chicken ribs, tasteless food, it is a pity to abandon it, the current situation, the best choice for Tuoba Xuan is to completely turn to one side, if you are active in the Hengshan area like this, no one will listen to your words, it is not a good thing for anyone. Last month, Dongfang Jin and Xiao Zhiyun had already talked about Tuoba Xuan, according to Xiao Zhiyun's meaning, they would send troops to Hengshan and swallow this party army as quickly as possible, but Zhao Yougong refused at that time. The reason why he refused was also because Tuoba Qingyun, he was waiting for news from Tuoba Qingyun, if that woman could rely on her influence to persuade the children of the party to completely fall to the Dingguo Army, wouldn't it be a beautiful thing? It's a pity that Zhao Yougong was disappointed that what he was waiting for was the news that the party members attacked Yinchuan City and looted the whole city.

In the palace of King Qin, Zhao Yougong pondered for a while, and then ordered one after another to be sent out of the palace, and the Dingguo army made a move on the second day. Zhang Gong, who was stationed in Dayangtan, led 3,000 soldiers and horses through Yinchuan City to arrive at Luowu City at noon on the sixth day of the lunar month, and at the same time, Ye Jingtang, the commander of the security battalion, also led more than 5,000 troops to approach the Dali River in Yan'an Prefecture, and Niu Gao, the commander of Dingdong Capital, also led his troops to reach the area of Baigan Mountain, and Wu Jue sent Yue Fei as a general to lead 4,000 elite soldiers out of Yinzhou and into the eastern mountain col of Hengshan. In a short period of time. The Dingguo army gathered an army of nearly 20,000 near Hengshan. The Dingguo Army dispatched a large army to besiege Hengshan. Its purpose could not be more obvious, that is, to completely subdue the party members hiding in the dense forests of Hengshan.

The Dingguo army was going to war with Tuoba Xuan, and Helian Tieshu was of course very happy, but he didn't dare to act rashly, because Niu Gao's soldiers and horses were not vegetarians, and nearly 10,000 strong soldiers were stationed on the front line of Baigan Mountain, which could not only support the Hengshan area, but also attack Hongzhou and Longzhou in the north from time to time. The Dingguo Army had already been prepared. Helian Tieshu didn't care, because he just had to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, if there was a fierce battle, no matter who on both sides suffered, it would be a good thing for Helian Tieshu. Of course, it would be better for the Dingguo army to break through Hengshan and force Tuoba Xuan to bow to the Great Xia Kingdom, which would be too wonderful.

In the south of Hengshan, Zhao Yougong mobilized heavy troops, and the action was so big, he naturally couldn't hide it from Tuoba Xuan. Sit in the bamboo building. Tuoba Xuan was dissatisfied with the frost on his face, and scolded over and over again in his heart. "Crazy, that Zhao Yougong is really a madman, didn't he just rob Yinchuan City and kill a few people, so he can make a big move? More than 20,000 people threatened Hengshan, this is to force her to die. ”

Although there are no less than 30,000 warriors in the clan, the personnel are too scattered, and even if they can be concentrated, what are the chances of winning against the tiger and wolf army under Zhao Yougong? Tuoba had the heart to discuss with Tuoba Qingyun, but he couldn't find anyone. At this time, Tuoba Qingyun was walking on the way to Yinzhou wrapped in a cloak, she knew very well in her heart that she couldn't let Zhao Yougong and Daddy fight, once the two sides met each other, it would be a catastrophe for the hundreds of thousands of party children in the mountains. No one knows how ruthless Zhao Yougong's methods were, just as no one would have guessed that the revenge of the Dingguo Army would come so quickly. Although I don't want to admit it, the facts are the facts, tens of thousands of party members are not the opponents of the Dingguo Army, even if there is an advantage in the mountains and forests, it still can't stop the Dingguo Army. Tuoba Qingyun hopes to eliminate this military disaster, and it is best that no one dies.

The first snow in the third year of Xuanhe lasted for a long time, and this snow in a sense also helped Tuoba Xuan a lot, if it weren't for this snow, Zhang Gong would have ordered an attack on the eastern part of Hengshan.

A day passed in a hurry, and when Zhao Yougong rushed to Yinzhou City, he also got the news that Tuoba Qingyun had entered the city alone. I was not surprised by the arrival of Tuoba Qingyun, and it was not surprising that with this woman's courage, she entered Yinzhou alone.

In the warm room, two side dishes, a pot of warm wine, Zhao Yougong and Tuoba Qingyun sat opposite each other, and the two of them at this time were just like when they met in the restaurant for the first time. The difference is that three years have passed, the two of them have changed a lot, Zhao Yougong has a lot less frivolity, and Tuoba Qingyun has a little more confusion on his face. Zhao Yougong became more confident and calm, and Tuoba Qingyun lost his previous heroic posture.

"Qingyun, what are you coming to Yinzhou for, don't say it, this king can guess it. The weather is cold, let's drink a glass of wine to warm up first" Once upon a time, Tuoba was light and heroic, and in the face of Zhao Yougong, he could drink at will. But now, looking at the warm wine in the glass, she felt like she was crying. This man killed Uncle Man and was her enemy, so outside the Huichang Temple that year, he lost the folding fan and cut it in two. But in the world, how can you stop if you want to? She tried to dodge, but fate pushed her up.

"Zhao Yougong, for my sake, how about retiring from the army?" The haggard Yurong smiled bitterly, and she was almost pleading.

Zhao Yougong didn't want to be embarrassed to Tuoba Qingyun, but there were some things he had to do, when he came to Guanzhong and embarked on the road of competing for the world, he was destined to give up some things. Looking at Tuoba Qingyun's familiar face, she hadn't seen her for a long time, she had lost a lot of weight, and her pair of jet-black eyes like jewels had lost their former brilliance. Shaking his head gently, Zhao Yougong put down his wine glass and said lightly, "Qingyun, you know, this king can't agree!" ”

seems to have thought that this kind of answer would be a long time ago, but when Zhao Yougong said it himself, there was still a feeling of heartache, there was once an ambiguous feeling, but now it is not as good as a stranger, "Why do you have to be so arrogant?" Even if it's for me, can't you quit the army once? ”

"No, for your sake, this king has always been tolerant of Tuoba Xuan, but as soon as the incident of Yinchuan City came out, how could this king endure it? Retirement? If this king withdraws from the army because of your words, how can he convince the generals and convince millions of people in Guanzhong? Qingyun, you are a smart woman, you should know how much of a threat Tuoba is to this king when he is rooted in Hengshan. I won't hide it from you, just a month ago. Xiao Shuai and Mr. Dongfang had already built a war against Tuoba Xuan. Take control of Yokoyama as soon as possible. But this king has suppressed this mention for the sake of your face. But the result? The king waited for more than a month, but what he was waiting for was that Tuoba Xuan's troops sacked Yinchuan City. ”

Zhao Yougong said, Tuoba Qingyun is not clear, Daddy really shouldn't have fought Yinchuan City, just this step, the situation that was hard to maintain was broken. Today's Zhao Yougong really doesn't need the children of the party to resist the Xixia people, because he now has Yinzhou, and Yinzhou is here. Naturally, the Tangut people did not dare to go south, and at this time, hundreds of thousands of Dangxiang people became dispensable. Where are there true allies? Alliance, it must be because of need, and when it is not needed, it will kick away, or even fight each other. Tuoba Qingyun had long thought that there would be such a day, but she didn't expect that the Dingguo Army would take Yinzhou so quickly, and the change came too suddenly, and all of a sudden, the meaning of the party's children became chicken ribs. Now that Zhao Yougong wants to use troops against Hengshan, does he really want to exterminate the party's children? The big answer is no. All he wanted was a few important places in Hengshan, and if the party disciples left Hengshan to the west or north. I don't think I'm going to take care of it.

But the question is, do the children of the party have any other place to go besides Hengshan? To the west is Longzhou and Hongzhou, and to the north is Xiazhou and Shizhou, to fight for territory with the Western Xia people? Of course, there is another choice, that is, to completely attach himself to Zhao Yougong, but Daddy will never agree, he will die, and he will not lead hundreds of thousands of party children to join Zhao Yougong.

Looking at Zhao Yougong's cold gaze, the corners of Tuoba Qingyun's mouth curled, and a cold smile crossed him, "Zhao Yougong, you are a brute, an emotionless brute." ”

"If you say so, then it's up to you, Qingyun, this king just wants you to understand that this king must take Hengshan. There are two ways for you to let this king let Tuoba Xuan and your people go, either take the initiative to leave Hengshan, or you can find a reason for this king to let you go! Zhao Yougong didn't mind being a ruthless brute, he admitted that he was thinking about Tuoba Qingyun, but things in the world can't have both fish and bear's paws, maybe when they killed Tuoba Man, they were destined to not go together.

Give a reason? Hehe, it's easy to say, but it's hard to do, what kind of reason can impress Zhao Yougong and make Daddy bow his head? Tuoba Qingyun's face was sad, and when he looked at Zhao Yougong again, his eyes were full of hatred, "You're forcing me!" ”

"Yes, this king is forcing you, in the same way, you are also forcing me, this king is not a monk in the temple, there is no need to be merciful and purify all sentient beings!" Pick up the wine glass, drink it all, take a sip of warm wine, full of aftertaste. The flask on the table was steaming with thick heat, and through the mist, I could see tears surging in Tuoba Qingyun's eyes.

Tuoba Qingyun didn't drink the glass of wine, she got up and poured the wine on the table, and turned around resolutely, "Okay, you're good, you want a reason, right?" I'll give it to you, I'll go back and give you a reason! ”

Bang, the door opened, and a cold wind hit, and both of them felt a little cold. Looking at Tuoba Qingyun's slowly disappearing back, Zhao Yougong smiled bitterly and shook his head, no matter how deep his feelings were before, today is completely gone.

A snow, it fell for two days, when the snow stopped, Tuoba Qingyun also returned to the village, I heard that after Tuoba Qingyun returned, Tuoba Xuan's heart that had been kept was also settled a lot, he was afraid that something would happen to his good daughter. When I came to the bamboo building where Tuoba Xuan lived, I saw that the house was full of people, and all the elders of the tribes were there. Tuoba Qingyun didn't say anything, and sat quietly on the left hand side of the United Arab Emirates. Tuoba wanted to ask where his good daughter had gone in the past two days, but now the timing was not right, so he could only endure it.

In fact, everyone gathered together, nothing more than to discuss how to deal with the onslaught that the Dingguo Army might launch at any time, everyone was gossiping, the scene was lively, but there was no really effective way. After half an hour of noisy noise, a man with a blue silk head and a peacock feather said in a dark voice, "Patriarch, I have heard that the soldiers of the Dingguo army are strong and strong, and even the Khitan elite is not an opponent. Therefore, let's fight hard with it, the odds are not great, there is an idea here, I don't know if the patriarch is willing to listen to it! ”

The name of the person who spoke was also the speed, this person was the current patriarch of the Pochao clan, and there were 4,000 young men under his hands, and he was also very strong in the party.

Tuoba raised his eyebrows, shook his hands and hummed impatiently, "You kid has something to say quickly, swallow and vomit, hang people's appetite!" ”

"Hehe, patriarch, we can't fight hard, but we can outwit it, there is a saying in the Han art of war called the soldier who surrenders without a fight, and this time we will use this trick. I heard that Zhao Yougong has a deep relationship with the princess Zhang, and he also respects the father of the Zhang family, and now the father of the princess Zhang's family, Zhang Gong, is in the city, if we send someone to sneak into the city and bring Zhang Gong into the mountain, with the relationship between Zhao Yougong and Zhang Gong, the Dingguo army will dare to attack the mountain under the rat taboo? ”

A soldier who surrenders without a fight is the highest level of a general, and in a good sentence, it is also a miracle to be understood as such. (To be continued......)
