Chapter 365: Battle Rain.
In the Xi tribe, An Lushan and General Cao were eating, General Cao looked around, and after confirming that there was no one, he said, "General, what does this Kumo mean?" Whether he is willing to help or not, isn't it just a matter of words, if he refuses, it's a big deal for us to leave, is it necessary to consider this? ”
"You don't understand, Kumo is not a simple person, don't look at the current Xi tribe seems to be very weak, self-consolidating and locking the city, in fact, they are just Taoguang and obscure. In the past few years, he has trained a lot of Xi people's children, just to avenge his father, but the Xi tribe has too few troops and is not the opponent of the Xuanjia Army at all. ”
"Now our appearance can be regarded as giving him a little hope, but Kumo has endured it for so many years, and he is still a little worried, worried that we are not honest, after all, we are not familiar with each other. If it were me, I would be so cautious, because it's not his problem alone, now I understand, don't worry, just give him a day to think about it. ”
The day passed quickly, and at noon the next day, Kumo found An Lushan and the others, and said: "General An, I can lend you grain and grass, if one day you really invade the Central Plains, I don't want Taiyuan City, I don't have that strength." I hope to give our Xi tribe a foothold in the Central Plains, as long as it is stronger than we are now, how about it? ”
An Lushan smiled: "That's it?" I can promise you that I can give you a note to prove my integrity. ”
"No need, I believe in General An's character, I have sent someone to prepare the grain and grass, and I will send someone to help you send it back, you want 200,000 stones, I will give you 300,000, which can be regarded as the support of the Xi tribe for General An." It is hoped that General An can attack Yanmen Pass as soon as possible and enter Datang. ”
An Lushan and General Cao went back to the ancient battlefield with grain and grass and Xi people, and after returning to the ancient battlefield, An Lushan ordered people to rebuild the grain and grass camp, this time in the rear of the army, where the red-coated artillery could not attack. Returning to the big tent, An Lushan said to a middle-aged man: "Yuan Konghai, how long will it take for the heavy rain you said?" I've blocked the embankment on the other side of Dongyun Snow Ridge, why hasn't it started to rain yet? ”
Yuan Konghai held the staff of soul attraction in his hand and said: "General, don't worry, if nothing happens, it will rain heavily tonight, at least for seven days in a row, and after seven days, it will be the best time to attack Yanmen Pass." However, the general should not be too optimistic, everything has pros and cons, heavy rain will also slow down our attack, and some siege equipment may not be usable, but as long as there are no special circumstances, there should be no major problems. ”
Yuan Konghai, after Dongying's famous family, is proficient in the art of war and magic, and has been studying yin and yang all his life, and he helped An Lushan because of the order of the emperor of the Japanese Dynasty. Yuan Konghai is proficient in yin and yang, and understands the five elements of the Central Plains, so he chose to help An Lushan because he could see An Lushan's fate and the hidden illness of the Tang Dynasty today.
After Yuan Konghai returned to his tent, he said to a young man who looked to be only fourteen or fifteen years old: "Ming'er, remember what my father said today, Datang's dragon vein has been damaged, and now is the best time to defeat Datang." We helped An Lushan to find a chance to expand the territory for the Son of Heaven, and after you become the patriarch of the Genji clan in the future, you must also remember to make good use of your yin and yang techniques to open up a larger territory for the Son of Heaven. ”
The young man's name is Yuan Mingya, and he is the eldest son of Yuan Konghai, and he came out to take him with him this time, just to experience Yuan Mingya, so that he can one day enter the Tang Dynasty to find an opportunity to expand his territory. The scope of the Wa Kingdom was only the island in the East China Sea where they were located, and the Emperor of the Japanese Dynasty was not satisfied with his territory, so he sent the Gen clan into the hinterland of the Tang Dynasty and let them look for opportunities.
However, for Yuan Mingya, he likes yin and yang very much, and he also likes those spells, but he is different from other people of the Yuan clan, what he likes more is to study spells and be obsessed with skills. It's just because of his father and family that he has to help do these things, Yuan Mingya walked out of the tent, looked at the stars in the sky, and muttered: "The dragon vein of the Tang Dynasty, is it really exhausted?" The stars are scattered, yin and yang are combined, although the emperor star has a dark image, but there is a double star next to it, Datang... There seems to be a turnaround. ”
"It's going to rain, I want to see who in Datang can reverse this defeat!" After Yuan Mingya went back to the big tent, a thunderclap broke the silence, and then there was a violent storm, but in the current scene, it was so cold. An Lushan opened the big tent and laughed: "Sure enough, it's raining, even God will help me, Xuanjia Army, I see how you can survive this heavy rain!" ”
Inside the Yanmen Pass, Feng Yebei and Yan Wangqing stood on the city tower in their robes, looking at the little fires in the distance, Yan Wangqing said: "There is only one heavy rain in the north a year, I don't know, how long it will rain this time." ”
"No matter how long it takes, it will buy us some respite, in recent days, the Wolf Tooth Army has come to harass and feint every day, making us uneasy all night, this heavy rain will make it difficult for many siege equipment to move, they should not rush to attack the city."
Yan Wangqing exhaled deeply, and left the city tower with Wind Yebei. The rain continued to fall incessantly for five full days, and during these five days, both armies were resting. On the sixth day, Yang Ning finally arrived at Yanmen Pass with the northern aid army, and Zheng Lin and his party only caught up with them two days ago.
"General Yang, you have finally arrived, this heavy rain is really timely, how many people have you brought this time?"
After Yang Ning introduced the leaders to Yan Wangqing one by one, he said: "That's all, most of them are from the rivers and lakes, there are about 70,000 people, which should give the Xuanjia Army some respite." After I send them here, I have to rush back to Chang'an, Yan Shuai, these people will be handed over to you. ”
Yan Wangqing nodded, and after letting Yang Ning go to rest, Yan Wangqing said to everyone: "Thank you all the heroes of the rivers and lakes for coming to help, this commander represents all the Xuanjia Army, on behalf of the Tang Dynasty, thank you here." As for how to arrange it, I hope everyone can listen to the will of the military division, if there is any dissatisfaction, you can find the military division or the commander, we will negotiate and deal with it. ”
Because the northern aid army has been in a hurry, and now it is raining heavily, so they all went to rest first, but at this time, Zhuge Yan found Fengye North and said: "Military division, may I ask, outside the Yanmen Pass, there is also a dike?" Or rivers, rivers and lakes? ”
"Oh, there's a dam in the Dongyun Snow Ridge outside the Dongyun Pass, what's wrong? Wait a minute... Dam! Broken! The two of them spoke in unison and hurried to find Yan Wangqing.
