Section 61

The sun traveled all the way to the west, gradually disappearing at the end of Tianyin Mountain. The western sky burned, gradually turning blue-purple and finally dark gray. Under the last rays of light, Tianyin Mountain was abruptly tall, and the outline of the silver peak became clearer. Tai Benshu and Cha Gan Heyi led a few personal soldiers and walked between the camps, and the two looked towards the head of Lanning City from time to time, occasionally pointing.

"Heyi, do you remember the first time you arrived in Lanning?"

"Naturally, I remember that we were all young at that time. The prince is still only a centurion, and his subordinates are just a chief. The first time I entered Lanning, it was just dark. ”

Tai Benshu stood up straight, and couldn't help but look at Lanning City again. At this time, the twilight was four, and the distant city was a little blurred, and the defenders had already lit torches. Faintly, you can still see a figure shaking above. He sighed and said, "yes, we were young then. I remember the first time I entered this majestic city, I was blown away by its grandeur. Now that I have revisited the old place, I have appeared here in this way, and now that I think about it, there is always something wrong. ”

Looking over from the camp, Tianyin Mountain was like a huge monster in front of everyone, setting off Lanning City more majestic, and Chagan Heyi also sighed: "Yes, the prince also said at that time that as long as Lanning City is here, I will hold the western gateway in Beimeng, and it can be said that I can advance and retreat freely." At that time, I was a little unimpressed, but now that I appear here as an enemy army, I know that this is true, this Lanning City is really not easy to fight. ”

A gust of mountain wind blew, whining, Tai Benshu coughed, and couldn't help wrapping his coat tightly. Cha Gan Heyi looked at him and said with a worried face: "It's night, it's windy." The snow and wind are very cold, so let's go into the tent, lord. ”

In July, the frenzied mountain wind finally has a direction, and now it is almost all day long. At night, the wind became even stronger, and these hundreds of thousands of troops belonged to different tribes, and they did not belong to each other, so Taiben could barely suppress them. But everything must be done personally, it can be said that it is extremely exhausting, although Taibenshu is a six-stage master, but he is old, he is busy all day long, and his body is a little unbearable.

Taibenshu said: "It's not in the way, as long as Lanning is under the city, everything will be solved." He smiled and pushed away Cha Ganheyi's hand that was supporting him, turned his head to look at him and said, "By the way, how is the situation of the enemy reinforcements?" ”

As soon as he said this, Cha Gan Heyi said with a smile: "Lord Wang is at ease, although the enemy's reinforcements are claimed to be 100,000. But the spies in front of them carefully observed, and I am afraid that there are not even 50,000. The main commander of these tens of thousands of people will be He Hui of the Northwest Camel Battalion, but the owner of the building will not be convinced. The two had a big quarrel in the camp tent a while ago, and the quarrel broke up unhappily. Now 50,000 reinforcements have moved towards Lanning, but they are moving very slowly. ”

Taimoto Shu also laughed: "Wild Wind is the brother of Wild Wind Maniac, and he is also a prince anyway." Although the northwest is powerful, He Hui is far inferior to him in terms of identity and qualifications, how can he be convinced? It is reasonable to cause some contradictions. He glanced at the smiling Yingying Cha Gan Yi, sighed and said: "When people get along with people, there are enough reasons to have contradictions. Interests, personalities, ideas, etc., any of which may give rise to reasons for fighting for power and profit. If I hadn't reconciled it, you and Alatanchi would have been fighting to the death. ”

Cha Ganheyi's smile froze on his face, and he said astringently: "Lord Wang, I also have to ...... for it" Seeing that Tai Ben was noncommittal, he just smiled faintly, and he quickly changed the topic and said: "But Lord Wang, they are walking so slowly, this decisive battle period is afraid that it will be postponed indefinitely." ”

Taiben Shu looked at the head of Lanning City, and did not look back: "There are hundreds of thousands of people in Lanning City, and it is not a small number for people to eat horses every day. Even if there is grain aid from the northwest, I am afraid that it will be limited. It's not us who are in a hurry, it's them. Now that the reinforcements are infighting, the itinerary is indefinite, and the grain and grass in Lanning City are about to run out, I want to see how he Wu Ming can hold on without food. ”

The two of them were discussing word by word, when there was a sudden commotion in front of them, and Cha Ganheyi was startled, stretched his neck and looked: "What's wrong?" ”

Hundreds of thousands of troops did not belong to each other, there were many disagreements between various departments, and there were even fights among soldiers. Taiben was furious, and the troublemakers were all beheaded, and they were never tolerated, and this trend was curbed a little. Taibenshu also looked at it, shook his head and said, "The voice is calm, it shouldn't be a big deal, let's go over and take a look." ”

When the two of them walked to the gate, they saw that dozens of carts had been parked outside the camp. More than a hundred people in strange costumes were standing outside the gate, arguing loudly with the guards. Cha Gan Heyi said loudly: "What's the noise? ”

A small leader stepped forward: "I've seen the director, Lord Wang." They claimed to be envoys from the West to the dusty country, and they came to labor with grain and grass. ”

The Eastern Mongolian soldiers were under the city of Lanning and occupied an absolute advantage. Many small states in the West had already sent secret envoys to swear allegiance from the rule of the West and allegiance to the East Mongolia. Yu Chen's power is not weak, and he even sent people here, and even brought grain and grass here? Taimoto was overjoyed, but said lightly: "Oh, have you ever verified your identity?" ”

Now that it is wartime, I am afraid that there will be spies in the army, so Taimoto Shu has this question. The little leader saluted again, "Verified." They have a national letter from the dust country, and they shouldn't be fake. The young general is about to send someone to inform the prince of you. ”

Tai Benshu nodded and said, "That's good, let their leader come over and talk." ”

The little leader agreed, and went down to lead a middle-aged man over. This person walked up to Tai Benshu, knelt down and kowtowed, and said, "The villain is in the Ministry of Rites of the Dust Country, see the prince." ”

Although this person was dressed in a bearded suit, he had black hair and yellow skin, and was obviously a Han man. However, although there are many ethnic groups in the West, there are also many Han people, and Taibenshu also goes to his heart. It's just that what he can't accept is that this person's whole body stinks, there is an unpleasant fishy smell, and he doesn't know how many days he hasn't taken a bath. However, there are many countries in the West, and there are many rules, and some people do not take a bath for life. This is due to the other party's customs, and he didn't have much to say, so he had to hold his breath, nodded and said, "Lord He came from afar, it's really hard, what are you doing here?" ”

He asked knowingly, but He Fei didn't dare to say anything, and still said respectfully: "The prince is in the direction of the heavenly soldiers, Lanning City will definitely be able to go down overnight, and the traitor Yan Da will definitely be the head." The villain is here to pay allegiance to the prince on behalf of the lord of my family. ”

If Simon had besieged Rizela, he would have dedicated his words to Nayanda as it was. Taiben Shu was a little amused in his heart, but he said lightly: "The heart of your country, the old man knows." However, Lord He must know that you are not loyal to me, but to me. ”

He Fei's face darkened, and he knelt down and kowtowed, "Yes, the villain knows." Tai Benshu looked at He Fei, who pouted his ass high, and thought to himself that it would be good to get off the horse properly, but it was too much. Hurriedly helped him up politely, and said kindly: "Lord He, how many people are here?" ”

He Fei was a little frightened, and replied cautiously: "Lord Qiqi, the villain came this time, and brought a total of 200 cattle and sheep, 100 catties of raisins, 10 carts of stone grease, and 2,000 catties of coal. ”

With the army raising a large number of livestock, two hundred cattle and sheep are nothing, it can only be regarded as a mind. Raisins are a good thing, this kind of snack is also produced in the west, even if grapes can be produced in other places, due to the restrictions of the climate, they can't make such a delicious thing, but thinking of the peculiar smell of these people, Tai Benshu's appetite is suddenly gone. The most important thing is the stone grease and coal, although it is early summer, but because Lanning is backed by Tianyin Mountain, it will be snowy and windy at night, and it hurts to blow on the face. Not to mention those pampered tribal leaders, even Taibenshu is very uncomfortable. These two things can be regarded as real carbon in the snow. His whole body smelled bad, and Taimoto was very unhappy. At this time, he looked at him and was a little more pleasing to the eye: "The kindness of the lord of Yuchen country, this king knows." After these things are put into storage, I will set up a banquet to entertain Lord He. ”

He Fei was still sincerely afraid, and bowed and said, "In this way, the villain has thanked the prince." Taiben nodded slightly, and said to Chagan Heyi: "Heyi, you take them to send things to the baggage camp." Remember, check carefully. ”

Although we know that their identities are true, it is always right to be careful. The cautious Cha Gan Heyi took them to the baggage camp, and there would be no mistakes. Cha Gan Heyi naturally understood what Tai Benshu meant, and responded: "Obey." ”

Under the leadership of Chagan Heyi, a group of people drove the cart, crossed the heavily guarded camp, and walked all the way to the baggage camp inside. It's just that this group of Yuchen people, everyone stinks and makes people feel sick, and those escort sergeants pinch their noses and follow from afar, and no one wants to approach half a minute. These ** also know that their habits are disliked by others, and everyone is silent, escorting the cart all the way. When you arrive at the baggage camp, you can see the tall haystacks from afar, probably afraid of fire, so there are many fewer torches here than nearby, and it looks a little gloomy for a while. But there were quite a few soldiers patrolling around. There was still a long way to go from the baggage camp, and a team of patrol soldiers stopped everyone, and one of them said: "Stop, who is coming?" What is the matter with coming to the baggage camp? ”

Cha Gan Heyi said: "It's me." The envoy group of Yuchen Country sent the goods of the labor army, and I came to store them. ”

He was the head of the Household Treasury Department, and now he was in charge of the baggage camp. The little leader breathed a sigh of relief, and saluted: "It turns out that Director Chagan has arrived in person, but the baggage camp is under martial law, and non-guard sergeants must unload their weapons and fires when they enter." ”

Cha Gan Heyi said: "This is nature. After speaking, he first untied his waist knife and threw it on the ground. Seeing him do this, He Fei and several people who looked like leaders glanced at each other, but they didn't dare to disobey, and they took off the weapons on their bodies and threw them together. Still not at ease, the little leader stepped forward with a few soldiers and said to them, "Hand over all the fire on your body." ”
