September 28, Anzhou, Wulieshui. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

In the afternoon, King Xi Ahui is leading the main army of the Xi people to the east bank of Wulie River and lined up on the first line of Niutoujin.

At this moment, on the west bank of Wulie Water, tens of thousands of troops of the alliance are lined up, flags are flying, armor soldiers are standing in a forest, murderous, and the momentum is like a tiger.

Ah Hui is galloping with the leaders of the tribes on the bank of the river, across the river, more than 100 steps away, is the enemy army, clear and unobstructed. Everyone was silent, their hearts were very heavy, and the atmosphere was very dull and depressing, except for the occasional neighing of war horses and the gushing of the river.

The bad news of the fall of the Xi Wangfu has long spread throughout the top of the Xi clan. Ah Hui is holding a military meeting before crossing the Wudu River last night, dozens of generals above the governor level all participated in the military meeting, the first to appear is A Changsheng and Feng Hong, the two of them recounted in detail the whole process of the sudden change in the situation in Anzhou, from receiving the ghost alarm to the fall of Xi Wangfu, from misjudging that the enemy is Turkic to the truth is revealed, no matter how big or small, tell them one by one.

The reason why Ah Huizheng made the truth public was also a last resort, he knew that he couldn't hide it, the fall of the Xi Wangfu meant that the Xi people were in a desperate situation of extinction, how could such a big event be hidden? The longer it is concealed, the more unfavorable it will be, and in the end, it will become the target of the public, and the people will betray their relatives and leave, and the faster they will be defeated. And especially importantly, the current battle situation is seriously unfavorable for the Xi people, and there is basically no chance of victory, unless a miracle happens.

When Ah Changsheng and Feng Hong fled to Songziling, the Xi Wangfu had fallen for a day and a night, and eighteen hours were enough for the enemy to rush to Wulieshui, with the help of this natural dangerous force, stubbornly intercepted the Xi army, so that the Xi army was in a dilemma, deep in a predicament, everyone was in danger, panicked, once the Xi tribes turned against each other for their own interests, the alliance fell apart, A Hui Zheng and A Hui clan certainly had the disaster of destruction, and the Xi tribes could not escape the disaster of exile.

Therefore, after carefully weighing the pros and cons, Ah Huizheng decisively decided to disclose the truth, and ordered Ah Changsheng to immediately take the remnants of the army to join the main force, and at the same time convene the generals above the governor to hold a military discussion to discuss the plan and jointly decide the survival of the Xi people.

The impact of the bad news was too great, and the generals of the Xi tribe were shocked and unbelievable. More than two months ago, the Xi people also went on an expedition to the Khitan, ambitious to dominate the northeast, but today, more than two months later, they have fallen into a desperate situation of extermination, this disparity is like a fatal blow, so that the generals of the Xi tribe almost collapsed, fortunately at this moment the main army of the Xi people is still there, there are more than 20,000 control strings, and there is still the possibility of saving, take a step back and say, even if it is defeated, the Xi people can still be trapped in the southeast corner of Mayu Mountain, waiting for the opportunity to make a comeback.

In times of crisis, the importance of Ah Huizheng, the king of Xi, is very prominent, he is the banner of the Xi people, that is, the commander of the tribes, without his existence, the tribes are a plate of scattered sand, unable to form a cohesive force, unable to unite against the enemy, and the consequences of fighting each other will surely perish, so the disclosure of the truth at this moment will not only not weaken the authority of A Huizheng, but will increase his strength, which will help him monopolize power and turn the tide.

While the tribal generals were in deep pessimism, depression and despair, they also held a trace of luck, pinning their hopes on miracles and hoping that Ah Hui was showing his might to reverse the crisis.

Ah Hui is calm, and he shows the demeanor of a king at the critical moment. He comforted the generals, thinking that the current situation in Anzhou seems to be bad, and it seems that the Xi people have fallen into a desperate situation and have nothing to do, but in fact this is not the case, the situation in Anzhou cannot be viewed in isolation, and it must be put into the north-south chess game to see, so the situation is very different.

In the north-south confrontation, Anzhou seems to be insignificant, but in fact, its ownership directly affects the situation in the northeast, and the turbulence of the situation in the northeast affects not only the Far East and the Donghu species, but also seriously affects the desert and the northern captives, because the northeast is in the southeast direction of the desert and is the flank of the southern moraine region, and the southern part of the moraine borders the Middle Earth, which is the main battlefield of the north-south confrontation. Therefore, the Turks in the desert have always allied themselves with the northeastern tribes dominated by Xi, Xi and Khitan, and regarded them as their powerful other tribes, and they were co-opted and firmly controlled.

From this, it is not difficult to infer that the Turks will never allow Anzhou to fall into the hands of Middle-earth, never allow the situation in the northeast to be turbulent, and never allow the flanks of the south to be exposed to the attack of Middle-earth, especially now that the national strength of Middle-earth is becoming stronger and stronger, in recent years, it has been a crusade to the east and west, showing a strong external expansion, the Civil War is therefore rapidly approaching, and the capture of Anzhou by Middle-earth is to make preliminary preparations for the Civil War, Turkic? It is inevitable to launch a fierce counterattack, and it is inevitable to send troops to support the Donghu tribes, and join forces with the Donghu tribes to repel Middle-earth, so as to ensure the security of the northeast, the security of the southern flank, and the superiority of the Turks in the confrontation between the north and the south.

Now the Turks did not react, the reason why the southeast of the Moraine did not do their best to support the Xi people, the main reason is that the tooth tent did not know that the Middle Earth had captured Anzhou, once the Shibi Khan made the decision to send troops to support, the Turks were determined to tear their faces with the Middle Earth to fight, then the Xi people have the hope of preserving, and the homeland has the possibility of regaining it, so the Xi people's top priority is to preserve their strength, is to work together to the outside world, as long as the strength still exists, as long as the people's hearts are cohesive, they will definitely be able to reverse the crisis and turn defeat into victory.

Of course, in the confrontation between the north and the south, it is a fact that the south is strong and the north is weak, and the Turks are forced by the strength of Middle-earth, and it is also possible to passively defend and passively defend, and they do not dare to turn against Middle-earth for the time being.

If the situation in Anzhou develops in this unfavorable direction, and the Turks sacrifice the Xi people to protect their own interests and break their promises, then there is no need for the Xi people to keep their promises and stick to the covenant, immediately turn against them, and turn to Middle-earth as a whole.

The premise of the Xi tribe falling to Middle-earth is that they must protect their own interests to the greatest extent, and if they want to achieve this goal, the first condition is to preserve their strength, without strength, the Xi people are not qualified to put forward conditions, they cannot bargain with Middle-earth, they can only be slaughtered.

Therefore, Ah Huizheng's final conclusion is that no matter which direction the situation in Anzhou develops, and whether the Turks send troops to support, in a word, if the Xi people want to protect their own interests to the greatest extent, they must preserve their existing strength, if the strength is gone, even if the Turks support and defeat Middle-earth, the Xi people will not be able to recover their homeland, and even the extinction of the species, on the contrary, even if they surrender to Middle-earth, it is also fish and meat on the chopping block, even if they survive, but their homeland will definitely be gone. At most, it is to migrate to a barren land to survive.

What is the premise of preserving strength? It's about working together and uniting as one. If there is internal strife and splitting, each fighting for itself, the strength of the Xi people will be greatly reduced, and in the end it will inevitably be broken by the opponents, not to mention the preservation of interests at that time, and even survival cannot be guaranteed.

How to protect their own interests to the greatest extent? Now surrender to Middle-earth, tie your hands, your interests will definitely not be protected, and you must wait for the situation to develop. If the Turks do their best to send troops to support, fight with the Middle-earthers, or even lose both, it is the most beneficial to the Xi people, on the contrary, if the Turks are afraid of Middle-earth, compromise with Middle-earth, and ignore the survival of the Xi people, then the Xi people can only surrender to Middle-earth, but surrender is not as good as surrender, the tenacious persistence of the Xi people will inevitably bring trouble to the stability of Middle-earth, and finally they will take the initiative to appease, so that the two sides bargain, the Xi people can protect their own interests to the greatest extent.

Ah Huizheng's opinion was in line with the interests of the Xi people and the interests of the tribes, and he immediately won the unanimous support of the generals of the tribes.

So Ah Huizheng quickly came up with a decision, marched into Wulieshui, and blocked the Chinese army at all costs, ensuring that the Xi people occupied the southeast area of Mayu Mountain, and ensuring that this territory was not lost. With this territory and more than 20,000 troops, the Xi people have the strength to protect themselves, and they have the capital to bargain with the two strong men of Middle Earth and Turkic, so they can always take the initiative and protect their own interests to the greatest extent.

This decision was unanimously adopted after discussion among the tribal generals.

Next, Ah Hui is issuing a series of orders. Hurriedly sent a message to the envoys from all walks of life who were rushing to the Khitan, the Xia and the Turks, telling the news that the Great Attack on Middle Earth, the Xi Wangfu had fallen, and the main force of the Xi people was holding on to Sanhui City, and asked the envoys from all walks of life to speed up their march and do their best to win more and faster support for the Xi people.

He also ordered the army of the Murde to return to Qijin Mountain as soon as possible, strengthen the defense line upstream of the Tuosu Chenshui River, and be sure to block the Khitans from the northeast foot of Mayu Mountain, so as to ensure the safety of the southeast area of Mayu Mountain. Qijin Mountain is the capital of the Murodebu, and the entire eastern foothills of Mayu Mountain are actually the habitat of the Murodebu, the home of the Murodebu, so it is most appropriate for the Murodebu to garrison the upper reaches of the Tofuchen water to block the Khitan attack.

In addition, Ah Huizheng also specially instructed that the wounded and sick who had stayed in Qijin Mountain before must be comforted, and they must not be bullied, imprisoned or even killed, if they insist on returning to the ghost side, then send him to Songshan safely, in short, at this moment of the survival of the Xi people, they must work together, even if there is betrayal, internal strife and splitting, but for the sake of the Xi bloodline, they will only punish the evil, not kill the innocent.

This move won more hearts and minds for Ah Huizheng, and also made some generals who were at both ends of the head and have evil intentions hesitate in the sway, after all, the truth is here, you have no strength, or the strength is not enough, even if you surrender to Middle-earth? At most, save a life, win a little profit, and in the end there is nothing, rather than being a dog wagging his tail and begging for mercy, it is better to follow Ah Hui Zhengbo, maybe you can protect your vested interests.

In the end, Ah Huizheng ordered the army to cross Wudu Shui overnight and go straight to Wulieshui.

However, just as the Xi army crossed the river, in the early hours of the morning, the scouts reported urgently that the east bank of the Wulie River had seen the Middle Earth army. This is bad news, Wudu and Wulie are about eighty miles apart, and if the Middle-earth army crosses the river overnight, they will all reach the east bank in the morning, so that the two armies will have to meet each other and fight to the death.

Ah Hui Zheng was decisive and did not hesitate, ordering the army to speed up the speed of crossing the river, determined to rely on the advantage of the horse army, break the cauldron and fight against the water. Some tribal generals are cautious, worried that the decisive battle will fail, the loss is too great, and try their best to dissuade them, but Ah Hui is unmoved, his reason is that the Middle-earth army marches day and night, continuous battles, exhausted, and lacks horse army, there is no advantage in the frontal decisive battle, if the Middle-earth army dares to cross the river for a decisive battle, the Xi people will win this battle, once the opponent is hit hard, the Xi people can not only grasp more initiative on the battlefield in Anzhou, but also may be able to take advantage of the situation to kill into Fangcheng and recapture the Xi Palace.

As a result, he made the right bet, the scouts in front waited until dawn, and did not see the Middle Earth army crossing the river, obviously the Middle Earth army also saw the advantages of the main army of the Xi people, and did not dare to cross the river for a decisive battle, and could not afford the serious consequences that the situation in Anzhou could be subverted in an instant after the defeat.

Now the Chinese army Chen Bing Wulie water on the west bank, waiting for work, while the Xi army is arrayed on the east bank of Wulie water, ready to go, both sides have no absolute advantage, and the purpose of both sides is to block the other party in Wulie water, as a result, neither side is willing to take the initiative to attack, can only face each other across the river, into a stalemate.

That night, Ah Hui was convening the senior generals of the tribes to lead the army and proposed to send envoys to negotiate, to find out the truth of the other side, and to delay the other party's attack, after all, this army on the other side must be a partial division of the Middle-earth army, and its main army will reach Wulieshui at any time, once the other side wins an absolute advantage in strength, the decisive battle will inevitably break out.

Feng Hong took the initiative to ask Ying and was willing to rush to the West Bank for negotiations.
