Chapter 229 The dilemma is Songruozan
In the camp of the Qiang people, Du Song Ruozan cut a piece of meat from the roast leg of lamb and chewed it slowly, and from time to time he picked up the earthen bowl and drank two sips of barley wine. And Mangbrozhi and other Qiang generals were not so gentle, these people directly gnawed on the leg of mutton, and drank barley wine bowl by bowl.
"Attack Longdi Pass again tomorrow, and you can go up in person." After taking a sip of wine, Du Song Ruozan opened his mouth and said to Mangbrozhi.
"No problem, I will personally twist off that Huo Guang's head and send it to Da Lun." Mangbrozhi gnawed on the leg of mutton and said with a fierce look in his eyes.
Du Song Ruozan smiled and nodded, although the battle of the siege of the city today was extremely fierce, and the Qiang people paid the price of nearly 10,000 casualties, but Du Song Ruozan confirmed the fact that there would not be too many Han troops in Longdi Pass.
As soon as the day dawned, the Qiang army came to the city again. However, when they saw the city tower of Longdi Pass again, the 90,000 Qiang people, including Du Song Ruozan, looked incredible.
At this moment, except for the tattered Chinese character flag, all the other flags were gone. And the Han army that originally stood at the head of the city is also gone, and the gate that was destroyed yesterday has now been renovated, but at this moment the gate is wide open, and the road is cleaned, as if welcoming the arrival of the Qiang people.
"This" at a glance to the Longdi Pass people to go to the entrance of the building, yesterday was a fierce battle of the place, now it is an empty city.
"Da Lun, can't you get in yet?" Such an unreasonable scene, even the unscrupulous Mangbrozhi was very surprised, and for a while he didn't know whether to move on or what?
"Let me think about it." Du Song Ruozan's face was no longer as calm as before, and he didn't expect that Longdi Pass would be like this, but this is the last barrier to enter the pass, and even if the Han army is all killed, there is no reason to abandon the pass.
"Send someone to bypass the pass, go to investigate the situation ahead, and collect the troops and return to the camp" Du Song Ruozan is well versed in the art of war, and knows that there must be a demon when things go wrong.
If the Han army held Longdi Pass, Du Song Ruozan would still have the confidence to capture this place in one go, but now that the Han army is gone, the gate is open, and anyone will become cautious about unknown situations, especially for the wise.
A team of more than ten Qiang people left the army and headed towards the cliffs on both sides of Longdi Pass. These people are flexible and good at climbing the Qiang people, although the Longdi Pass is a natural barrier, but still can not completely limit the manpower to cross, after a small half a day, the dozen or so Qiang people have crossed the mountain peak on the side of the pass, the situation after the pass at a glance.
"Go back and report to Da Lun" The terrain behind the Longdi Pass, as well as everything was clearly seen by these Qiang people. Behind the Longdi Pass, there is a pocket-shaped canyon area, the valley is overgrown with trees, piles of firewood are placed around, and the Han military camp tents on the slopes on both sides stretch for several miles.
"How many Han camps do you say?" In the camp of the Qiang people, Du Song Ruozan asked these Qiang people who had crossed the pass in a deep voice.
"Back to Dalun, there are almost five or six thousand bars, which are seven or eight miles together." The Qiang soldier replied honestly.
"It is possible to judge how many people there are in the Han army?" Du Song Ruozan continued to ask, and the expression on his face became more and more solemn.
The Qiang soldier thought for a moment, then shook his head and said, "I can't see it, but before the meal, there is smoke rising in front of almost every tent." ”
"Got it, let's go down." Du Song Ruozan waved his hand and said.
"Da Lun? Could it be that reinforcements from the Han Chinese have arrived? But even if reinforcements arrive, they will not withdraw from the easy-to-defend pass, but choose to camp in the canyon? The Qiang soldiers walked out of the camp and asked in a puzzled voice.
"If a battalion houses ten people, on the surface, the Han army has at least sixty or seventy thousand people, which is definitely not what can be found in the original pass. Maybe their reinforcements arrived, or maybe they were suspicious, and those were just empty camps. Du Song Ruozan frowned and said, he also suspected that the Han army might be suspicious.
"Why don't I lead the army to attack tomorrow?" Manbroch said eagerly.
"No, what if it's true? The firewood that spread all around the valley was a plan for the Han people to introduce our army into the valley and then attack it with fire. Dusong Ruozan decisively rejected Mangbroch's proposal.
"Is it feasible to send a team of men to try it?" Manbroch continued.
Du Song Ruozan shook his head helplessly and continued to answer: "No, if there are fewer people, you can't test anything at all, and it will only increase casualties." And if the whole army attacks, it is possible that our army will fall into a trap. The only thing left to gamble on is to hope that the Han army is a suspicious tactic, and they have no reinforcements, and they are already at the end of their crossbows. But ah, we can't afford to gamble, this Huo Guang is really powerful, his actions are interlocking, and he points directly to the hearts of the people everywhere! ”
Originally, the Han army was guarding the pass, and Dalun dared to attack the city continuously, and even paid the heavy price of seven or eight thousand casualties a day without frowning, but now the Han army took the initiative to withdraw from the pass, but it did not dare to come forward to fight with the Han army.
"Order, monitor the Han army camp every day, pay attention to the number of their daily stoves, and report any abnormalities immediately." Du Song Ruozan reluctantly ordered, he really didn't dare to fight, even if the Han army only had a chance that reinforcements had arrived, but even if it was only a percent failure, Du Song Ruozan might not dare to try, and he couldn't try.
Fortunately, the purpose of their eastward advance this time was not to reach Chang'an, as long as the army pressed the border and the hinterland of the Han people was unable to organize a large army to aid the army of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty in Mobei. And for almost forty days, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty couldn't withdraw even if he wanted to!
When Du Song Ruozan made this dilemma, Dongfang Shuo was patrolling around the seemingly busy camp.
"These idle tents must be turned around every once in a while, and every day a fire must be lit in front of the tent to cook, even if it is just for show." Dongfang Shuo commanded to several lieutenants beside him.
These seemingly busy tents, in fact, nearly seventy percent are empty, Dongfang Shuo doesn't know how long this empty city plan can be performed, he can only try his best to play more realistically, hoping to let Du Song Ruozan find out the clues later.
When Dongfang Shuo of Longdi Pass was under tremendous pressure to let the Qiang people stop here, there was already a rumor in Chang'an City. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty took away almost seventy percent of the army in Chang'an City, and the Manchu Dynasty's civil and military forces almost poured out, and those noble and important ministers also took away a large number of private soldiers, and finally the army that could guard Chang'an City was less than 10,000 people.
When Huo Guang's instructions were sent to Chang'an, Du Yannian had already begun to recruit young people, but this voluntary recruitment operation was not successful. If the Qiang people have already arrived at the city of Chang'an, maybe there is no need for Du Yannian to recruit, many young people will consciously stand on the head of the city to fight against the aliens, but now that the Qiang people have stopped at Longdi Pass, the progress of recruitment is a little unsatisfactory.
Unlike the rumors in the entire Chang'an City, where the doors and windows of the people are closed, the Mutual Aid Medical Center has been particularly busy since Huo Tang returned to Chang'an, and the doctors here have hardly rested for more than ten days, and the prisoner cars have been continuously sent to the Mutual Aid Medical Center under the pressure of prisoners one by one.
In the courtyard where the poison was originally developed, the prisoners were forced to drink a green, viscous liquid, and then numbered prisoners in sealed cells. Within a day or two, the prisoners gradually developed symptoms of frequent colds, hot and cold, dizziness, and pain in their limbs. When these symptoms appeared, the prisoners were forced to pour some decoction. So far, however, the decoction did not seem to have worked, but after four or five days the prisoners developed severe diarrhea and vomiting blood, and soon died of dehydration.
"Miss Hui Tang, the seventh batch of death row inmates are all dead," Zhang Han bowed down in front of Huo Tang with some fear.
Originally, no one could get these people out of the Han Wu Emperor's will, but Huo Tang pretended to be in the name of Huo Guangzhi Huang Yue, and he insisted on bringing out the death row prisoners in Chang'an. Each batch of ten people is already the eighth batch that has been transported to the Mutual Aid Medical Center today.
"Tell the Tingwei Mansion that if there are not enough death row prisoners, those felons will be commuted to death! took Hou Ye's seal letter, and said that this was Hou Ye's order. Huo Tang said with a gloomy face, took out a copper seal from his arms and handed it to Lu Shu beside him.
Since Huo Tang returned to Chang'an, she seemed to have changed as a person, she couldn't see a trace of a smile on her face, her gloomy eyes seemed to be ready to choose someone to devour, and her originally gentle and quiet temperament had become moody. Even those around her became afraid of her.
"With so many people dead, are you still not making any progress?" Huo Tang's tone was very unkind, and he even continued to ask Zhang Han with an undisguised tone of questioning.
"This kind of plague has never appeared, and Chen Nian and Gou Guang made it by coincidence that day, but even the two of them don't know anything about the pharmacology, we can only try one by one" Zhang Han buried his head very low, and there were beads of sweat the size of beans on his forehead, he didn't dare to look at Huo Tang's eyes at all.
"I don't care what your reasons are, I'll give you ten days at most ten days. If there is no result after ten days, all of you should be ready to die! Huo Tang's voice seemed to come from the Nine Hells, and the healers in the entire room, including Lu Shu, shuddered.
Everyone in the room retreated, leaving only Huo Tang alone. She walked slowly to the window and looked up at the western sky, which was gloomy, as if a rainstorm was about to fall.
The fierce light in Huo Tang's eyes gradually receded, and turned into gentle as water, looking at the gloomy and low sky, leaning against the window alone and whispering, "You will definitely be able to come back."
