Chapter 768: True and False

September 17, Anzhou, Ghost Fang. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

All the people in Ghost Fang City are soldiers, and weak women and children go into battle. On the city wall, the big silk is flying, the flag is fluttering, and the armor is lined up. On the beacon tower, the flames soared into the sky, the smoke billowed out, and the wolf smoke went straight to the sky, graffiti the blue sky beyond recognition.

Although the atmosphere in the city was tense, the morale was strong, and the garrison soldiers of the five Xi tribes, who were the main force of the humiliating king, were not afraid and full of fighting spirit.

Xi nationality is one of the species of Donghu, born in the barren and barren Far East forest, after generations of unremitting efforts, the Xi people not only survived tenaciously in the cruel law of the jungle, but also in the process of southward development and growth step by step, today it is with the Xi people, Khitan and called the Northeast three hegemons, standing on their feet, so for the Xi people, war is a part of their lives, killing is their survival instinct, they were born in the drum and trumpet, grew up in the beacon fire, generation after generation has used their own blood and lives to protect the ethnic group, Defending the glory of our ancestors. It's not terrible to die, it's terrible not to die for the race, not to die for glory.

On the castle tower, the generals of the Ghost Garrison Army discussed in a low voice while looking at the enemy situation outside the city, and most of them behaved calmly and relaxedly, and did not take the threat of the enemy outside the city to heart.

After dawn, the enemy army had nothing to hide in the sun, and the Turks surrounding the ghost side only had four or five thousand people controlling the strings, and last night's "brilliant galaxy" was nothing more than a bluff of the Turks.

The truth was revealed, there was a false alarm, Xi people secretly breathed a sigh of relief, it turned out that the purpose of the Turkic raid on the siege was to coerce Xi Wang Ahui to withdraw his troops immediately, so as to quickly restore stability in the northeast region, not to capture the ghost side, to tear the face with the Xi people to fight, so that the crisis is within the controllable range, and the ghost side will not have to worry about survival in the short term.

Of course, if Ah Hui Zheng sees through the intentions of the Turks, will do what he wants, use the ghost side to drag the Turks, continue to lead the army to fight in the Tuosu Chenshui, and refuse to return to help, the situation will deteriorate, the crisis will escalate, and the embarrassed and angry Turks are very likely to increase their troops in large numbers and storm the ghost side, and may even put Ah Hui to death and inflict heavy damage on the Xi people. But even so, it was still very difficult for the Turks to exterminate the Xi people, because Middle-earth would never stand idly by, and would never allow the Turks to capture the Xi land and directly threaten the security of the northeastern frontier of Middle-earth.

Different people stand on different positions and have different interpretations of the situation at hand. Ah Huichuan, the deputy commander of Ghost Fang City, thought that it was incumbent on Ghost Fang to drag down the Turks and buy more time for Ah Huizheng to defeat the Khitan and conquer Luoma City. Ah Hui Chuan is the governor (commander of a thousand commanders) of the Xi tribe, the younger brother of Xi King A Huizheng, and it is natural to consider the pros and cons from the position of Xi Wangfu, so he disagreed with the decision made by Wang Yun to insult him, and when the enemy situation was revealed, he couldn't help it, and tried his best to persuade Yun to change his decision immediately, immediately send people out of the encirclement, and rush to Songshan to intercept Meng Ba.

"This opportunity to attack the Khitan is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and once it is lost, there is no regret." Ahuichuan tried his best to list a lot of reasons, the Far East overlord Goguryeo suffered a heavy blow, its two allies Khitan and Yan Yan were also affected, the Khitan from prosperity to decline, it is a good opportunity to start, and the Middle Earth is worried about internal and external troubles, self-care, the Turks in the southeast of the Moraine have recently been held back by a wave of rebels out of the Middle Earth, and it is difficult to concentrate on dealing with the Xi people in the short term, in addition, the battle between the Xi people and the Khitan has been fought for more than a month, the losses on both sides are large, and the battle situation has also reached a critical moment, who gritted his teeth and persevered to the end at this moment, Whoever takes the lead in breaking the deadlock will be able to win the final victory, on the contrary, whoever takes the lead in withdrawing the troops, who can't hold on first, who will be defeated, and this defeat is very likely to be defeated like a mountain.

Ah Huichuan's idea was supported by the three governors of Mohefu, Mukun, and Murude, not because they all stood on the position of the Xi Wangfu and deliberately ignored the vital interests of the humiliating royal department, but because the living environment of the Xi people was getting worse and worse, becoming more and more sinister, and it was urgent to reverse and break through. In recent years, Middle-earth, the desert and Goguryeo have become increasingly powerful, staring at the "fat meat" of the Northeast, the Xi people bear the brunt of it, and they are in danger of destruction at any time, but fortunately, these strong people themselves fought first, and the Middle Earth picked up a big fist to beat the Far East overlord Goguryeo down, which is equivalent to giving the Xi people a chance to reverse and break through, if they miss it, the next Xi people in the two tigers of the Middle Earth and the desert, can not be alone, they must be involved, the result can be imagined, it is difficult to escape the fate of defeat.

Since the future prospects are very pessimistic, of course we can't miss the opportunity now, of course, we have to give it a go, how can we deal with it passively and wait for death passively?

Insulting Wang Yun patiently listened to the opinions of his subordinates, and then asked unhurriedly, "Who has evidence to prove that the control of these Turks outside the city is all the people who attacked the ghost side this time?" ”

Silent. This is obviously a key issue, and this key issue has obviously been consciously ignored by everyone, not because of overconfidence, but because of the worry about the future of the Xi people, and full of expectations for the northern expedition of Xi Wang A Huizheng.

Ah Huichuan hesitated for a moment and said, "But we have evidence that the Turks are fighting with the Middle-earth people on both sides of the Lightning River, and now Ashina is divided into two routes, fighting on two fronts, and it is a last resort, after all, the threat to him from the Middle-earth people is too great in comparison, and he has to concentrate his forces to deal with the Middle-earthers." ”

Wang Yun shook his head disappreciatively, "The evidence we have can only prove that six or seven days ago, the Turks fought with the Middle-earth people on both sides of the lightning plain, and then the forest horse thieves cut off the peach water, and our news channel was interrupted, and there was no news from the lightning plain, and during this time, the Turks were enough to defeat the Middle-earth people, and then turn their horses around and kill into the land." ”

Insulting Wang Yun, he pointed at the enemy army outside the city, "What we saw last night was an illusion, but who dares to say that what we see now is the truth?" ”

Ah Huichuan was speechless, and the others also had solemn expressions and did not say a word.

"In order to win a better future, we should indeed seize the opportunity, even at the risk of risk, but if the stakes are too big, or even the survival of the entire Xi people, do we still have to gamble?" Wang Yun looked at everyone, soothed his tone, and continued, "In fact, we don't know anything about the enemy forces outside the city, and we didn't even know that the Turks were going to invade before the Turks came to the city, what does this mean? It shows that the Turks have long had an invasion plot, and the reason why they have endured until now is just waiting for an appropriate opportunity to win the maximum result at the lowest cost. ”

"What is the greatest result sought by the Turks?" Insulting Wang Yun's tone was heavy again, "It's to destroy our clan and take away our homeland." ”

The generals were secretly frightened, their faces were very ugly, although this is a fact, it is a fact that has always existed, but everyone deliberately avoided it, did not dare to face it, and had unrealistic illusions, but today Wang Yun ruthlessly tore apart this fantasy and exposed the fear that everyone had buried in their hearts to the sun.

"The Turks are our enemies and will always be our enemies." Wang Yun's voice suddenly became cold, "Why do you have illusions about the Turks? Could it be that our strength is the result that the Turks want to see? If the Turks want to destroy us, of course, they will use all means to strike and weaken us, and now, for the Turks, it is a rare and good opportunity to strike at us. Are you blind to such obvious things that you turn a blind eye to them? ”

The generals looked ashamed and bowed their heads and remained silent. Although Ah Huizheng felt that insulting Wang Yun's remarks was alarmist and had the purpose of shirking responsibility, he was powerless to refute it, just as Insulting Wang Yun said that since there was no evidence and he knew nothing about the enemy's situation, of course, he had to speculate on a series of actions that the enemy might carry out with the worst possible outcome, and he could not have illusions about the enemy, let alone take a chance to kill himself.

Wang Yun looked up at the sky and sighed, "What I'm most worried about now is not the Ghost Fang City, but the Songshan Pass. If Matsuyama is lost, our people will be wiped out. ”

The generals were shocked again, thinking of the deafening words of the insulting king Yun Zhen, everyone invariably thought of a possibility, that is, the Turks seemed to surround the ghost side, but in fact, they attacked the Songshan Pass with the main force, and directly cut off the return route of the Xi king A Huizheng and the five armies of the Xi people, so that it can be fatal with one blow, and even put the Xi king A Huizheng and the five armies of the Xi people to death. If this is the case, the Xi people will be in danger.

Of course, the return of King Xi is not only a road to Songshan Pass, but also along the Tuo Suchen River upstream, through the eastern foot of Mayu Mountain to the southwest of Xi Sanhui City, but this distance is too far, more than 700 miles of twists and turns, and more importantly, this road is in the Khitan territory, will inevitably be surrounded and intercepted by the Khitans, it is conceivable that in the end, even if King Xi A Huizheng all the way through the pass and kill the generals back, the five armies of the Xi people are also heavy losses, difficult to continue. In this unfavorable situation, what can the Xi people do to resist the wolf-like Turks?

"Songshan is dangerous, easy to defend and difficult to attack, and there are heavy troops in the tun, in the short term, the Turks will not be able to take the key pass at all." Ah Huichuan saw that everyone was in a low mood, and immediately boosted their morale, "The reinforcements from King Xi's Mansion will arrive soon, and the ghost side will fight together, which will definitely reduce the heavy pressure in the direction of the easy mountain, and the king will also quickly withdraw his troops, just wait for the main force of our five armies to return, and will be able to flank the enemy and thieves before and after, and inflict heavy losses on the enemy." ”

Wang Yun sighed and did not speak. In fact, he was very pessimistic about Matsuyama's defense. The timing of the Turks' attack was too good, and they did not give him time to react at all, so it can be seen that the Turks had already made careful preparations, and if they did not shoot, they would be fatal, and the snake hit seven inches, and the "seven inches" of the Xi people under the current situation were the Songshan Pass, so it was no surprise that the Turks would attack with all their might. Now he can't rescue Songshan, and it will take at least six days or even longer from the time Xi Wang Ahuizheng receives the news to complete the retreat preparations, and then return to Songshan, and with Songshan's existing defense force, it is too difficult to hold on for six days under the attack of enemy forces several times his own.

Now the only thing that can be counted on is the reinforcements of Xi Wangfu, as long as the reinforcements of Xi Wangfu arrive at the ghost battlefield in time, with the bloody battle of the Xi soldiers who forgot to die, there is still a glimmer of hope.
