Chapter 230: Afraid of death, die quickly
Yuan Tian came to Shuozhou City with great confidence to fight this battle, and the military exploits he dreamed of were beckoning to him. He even thought about the scene when the imperial brother washed him after returning to the country after returning victoriously.
Imagination is always beautiful, when he confidently led 10,000 Xianbei people to the city of Shuozhou, so his confidence turned into nothing, and he even suspected that he was dazzled: Zhao Yu was obviously injured by such a serious arrow wound, how could he appear on the city tower?
There was a touch of strangeness in his heart, the 10,000 Xianbei soldiers had been brainwashed by him, and the Great Yan Emperor had been seriously injured, and now he saw the man standing on top of the city tower in military uniform, his face was as usual, and they thought more of the thousands of Xianbei soldiers who died in vain in the last battle, just like them.
They were killed by the group of Dayan people who were wearing the same uniforms as themselves, what about themselves, could they also die of such grievances?
Xianbei's side was a little chaotic, and "Zhao Yu" stood on top of the city tower, his voice was not too loud, but it was enough for everyone to hear clearly: "It seems that the sixth prince has not remembered the lesson of the last time?"
"If you have the ability, don't use those conspiracies and tricks, go straight to the ground!" Xianbei people's temper was already anxious, not to mention that when they heard such sarcastic words, their anger couldn't be suppressed.
"When you can use the Xianbei war horse to our Dayan soldiers, we will be fair!" It was Ah Cheng who spoke, and he got to the point at once, "Zhao Yu" smiled coldly: "I don't know if the sixth prince understands?"
As soon as the words of "Zhao Yu" landed, as soon as his hand fell slightly, the archers on the city tower began to shoot arrows, and although those Xianbei people panicked, they also began to fight back, and their backhands began to shoot arrows towards the city tower.
The arrow rain was dense, and the Dayan soldiers took advantage of it because of their condescendingness, and when the arrow rain stopped, the gate of Shuozhou City opened, and it was still a group of people wearing Xianbei soldiers' clothes rushing out of the city gate.
No matter how good the strategy is, there will be nothing new after using it, and last time Yuan Tian was too panicked to cause a big disaster, and this time he is not ready to repeat the mistakes of the past.
He sat on horseback and carefully looked at the Dayan soldiers who rushed out of the city gate, and he only looked at the soldiers, but ignored the danger that was getting closer.
Ah Cheng also rode straight towards Yuantian, and when Yuantian reacted, Ah Cheng was already half-hung and slashed his horse's leg with a sword, he reacted fairly quickly and did not fall with the horse, and Ah Cheng did not let him go, and hit his wrist with the hilt of the knife, and the sword in his hand fell in response.
"The sixth prince likes Shuozhou City so much, why don't you go back to Shuozhou City with Wei Daocheng?" Ah Cheng pulled his lips and smiled, bent down and pulled him to the horse's back, slapped the horse's buttocks fiercely, and the two returned to Shuozhou City together.
This sudden change in front of him made all the Xianbei people stupid, and at the critical moment, Yuantian's lieutenant shouted loudly: "The whole army retreats, retreat!"
The Lord has been caught, there is nothing left to fight in this battle, and the lieutenant knows that he has some brains to preserve the living army.
It's just that what he doesn't know is that all this is in Ah Cheng's plan, and the deserters always die worse.
The archers on the tower set up their arrows again and shot them at the fleeing Xianbei.
People, the more afraid you are, the faster you die.
Except for those who reacted more quickly, most of the Xianbei soldiers lost their lives.
Ah Cheng's performance reminded Zhang Zilang of Xiao Jingzhi, he didn't participate in the whole battle of Hongzhou, but he heard that something seemed to coincide in a trance.
Politically speaking, Motoda is definitely an enemy, but Ah Cheng and the others did not lock him up in a dungeon, but treated him well.
"What are you cunning Dayan people doing?" Although Yuan Tian has been taken care of well, since he was imprisoned in this room, he has never seen anyone else except for the little maid and the maid.
"Why is the sixth prince so angry, General Ben just wants to talk to the prince. The person who came forward was Zhang Zilang, Yuan Tian gave him a blank look, did not take him in his eyes, and said with disdain: "What kind of thing are you, call your master over!"
Zhang Zilang's master is talking about Zhao Yu.
"The sixth prince doesn't want to talk to General Ben, so the prince will chat with the wall. Zhang Zilang's face was calm, without a trace of anger, and he was about to leave after speaking, Yuan Tian temporarily changed his mind: "If you have anything to say, say it quickly, this king wants to see what moths you can produce." ”
The only royal family in the most Xianbei country who can make a difference on the battlefield, Motoda is not a stupid person.
"What does the sixth prince think of the relationship between Emperor Xianbei and you?" Zhang Zilang sat down, as soon as he said this, Yuan Tian "sneered", and he naturally understood such a simple divisive plan: "This king knows what you want to say, this king advises you to waste less spitting stars, this king is loyal to Xianbei and loyal to the imperial brother." ”
"Everyone in the world says that the sixth prince is a loyal and courageous person, it seems that it is not bad at all, this general did not think about provoking your relationship, but simply told you one thing, you are now in the hands of my Dayan, if your imperial brother really cares about you, he will definitely send someone to ask you in two days, guess if you let your imperial brother exchange one hundred and fifty taels of gold for your life, will your imperial brother agree?"
Xianbei was not rich in the first place, let alone a million taels of gold, and even 500,000 taels was not a small amount for them, so Yuan Tian hesitated a little, but still replied very firmly: "Brother Huang will naturally save me." ”
"Yes, the most ruthless emperor's family, the sixth prince is really innocent and cute. Zhang Zilang laughed loudly after saying this, Yuan Tian's dark face was a trace of uncontrollable, and he threw the teacup on the table to the ground: "Zhang Zilang, you'd better pray that you don't fall into the hands of this king in this life, otherwise this king will definitely let you can't survive, and there is no way to die!"
"The sixth prince has this leisure, it is better to think about whether his brain is worth a hundred taels of gold, this matter is more practical. Zhang Zilang's words were very hurtful, this time he didn't wait for Yuan Tian's rebuttal, and left directly.
Yuan Tian shouted at this time: "Come on, come on, give this king the strongest wine!"
Zhang Zilang went to Ah Cheng's room after coming out of the room, he was still a little unsure: "Little Ah Cheng, I think that although the sixth prince is angry, he still calms down, this divisive plan is too simple and straightforward, is it really feasible?"
"I've said it all, call me a general, don't call me 'Little Ah Cheng'!" Ah Cheng first corrected his name, and then explained: "At the moment, Motoda's situation is too bad, and the interests of the imperial family are the most complicated, the more simple and straightforward it is, the more he can believe it, and it is not good if it is complicated." ”
Han Zhong was also listening from the side, and said intuitively: "I also think that General Wei Daocheng's words make sense. ”
Two to one, Zhang Zilang confessed.
Shuozhou City was waiting for a vacant position, but he didn't expect that it was not the Xianbei envoy who came first, but the army of Daliang.
Xianbei lost two battles in a row, the prince was also imprisoned, and now there is the support of the Liang army, and the situation in Xianbei is even more severe.
"Your Majesty, the lower officials heard that Daliang has sent an army to Shuozhou City in accordance with the peace treaty, and now it is very unfavorable to us. The person who spoke was Hua Lei, and Emperor Xianbei interrupted him impatiently: "These I naturally know, what I care about now is the sixth child, and he is now in the hands of those Dayan people, who should be sent here to Shuozhou City to find out the meaning of Dayan." ”
He and Yuan Tian are both generals, but they have no sense of sympathy, after all, military merit is limited, the two of them have been fighting for a long time, and they always have to say something at this critical moment, after all, there are some things that they have to do by themselves The most reliable: "The emperor doesn't have to worry about the affairs of the six princes, those Dayan people must not have any intention of hurting him, so let's go if they don't go to the next official." ”
"It's okay, you have said hello to those people in Dayan, so it's easier to do it. "It's better to use raw than cooked, and Emperor Xianbei didn't think so much about it.
Hua Lei had a triumphant smile on the corner of his mouth, returned to the mansion, and set off after making a little preparation.
Emperor Xianbei repaired the book in front, when Hua Lei came to Shuozhou City, the person who came to greet him was Zhang Zilang, "Zhao Yu" did not come, this is the difference between the first defeat and the two defeats.
Hua Lei was invited to the main hall, and the only people who accompanied him were Zhang Zilang, Ah Cheng and Han Zhong.
Hua Lei mentioned Yuantian, Zhang Zilang didn't talk nonsense, and said the conditions, Hua Lei's voice was full of incredulity: "General Zhang is not joking, you also know my Xianbei situation, isn't it too embarrassing to have a million taels of gold?"
"General Hua's words are wrong, the sixth prince is the emperor of the emperor, or the premier general of your country, and his value is more than a million taels of gold?"
"The sixth prince is my great xianbei humerus minister, but this matter is very important, and the lower officials still have to give it to the emperor. Hua Lei took a sip of tea and suppressed the shock.
The next conversation was very boring, until Hua Lei mentioned one thing: "Xiaguan didn't bring anyone with him except for an entourage in Shuozhou City this time, I don't know if I can let me see the sixth prince in Xia?"
"I want to meet, General Hua, are you making a big joke?" Han Zhong directly scolded, Zhang Zilang looked at Ah Cheng, Ah Cheng nodded at him, and he spoke: "Let's wait until we ask the emperor for advice." ”
Hua Lei stayed in Shuozhou City for another night, Zhang Zilang and Ah Cheng went to the room of "Zhao Yu", the two discussed, and finally decided to let Hua Lei see Yuantian, but to send someone to keep an eye on it, if there is anything wrong, stop it in time, neither of them know the relationship between Hua Lei and Yuantian, if they know, maybe they will try their best to let them meet.
On the second day, Hua Lei met Yuantian.
"Why are you here?" there is surprise, and there is disgust.
"The sixth prince is in prison, and the lower officials only came on the orders of the emperor. Hua Lei's expression when he said this was intriguing: "You and I have been by the emperor's side for many years, and the emperor knows the relationship between you and me, why do you think the emperor would let me come over?"
Zhang Zilang's hundred words were not as effective as Hua Lei's words, Yuan Tian's face changed greatly, his lips were tightly pursed, and his green tendons were protruding.
