Chapter Eighty-Three: Closing the Door and Catching the Thief
Besides, Xie Ruizhu and Cheng Hanbai took more than 100 horses and horses, quickly galloped to the nearest left army camp, showed the tiger talisman to Jiang Haitao, the commander of the left army, and transferred 50,000 troops to meet the enemy in the direction of Datong to Kyoto.
Jiang Haitao did not dare to disobey the order, ordered 50,000 horses, and sent a deputy general, Liu Cheng, to encircle and suppress the 20,000 Tatar cavalry who entered the country with King Duan.
At this time, Ling Xue received the latest news and immediately presented it to King Duan, who smiled and said, "Feng Mingze has already set up a formation for us, Governor Jiang, we just need to go and tie up our pockets!" Hanbai, have all the artillery on the Governor's Mansion been transferred out? ”
Cheng Hanbai said: "The one in Xicang is already on the road, but the number of fire and thunder is not enough, and it has to be transferred to Dongcang." ”
Ling Xue suddenly whispered beside King Duan, and King Duan also remembered that there was still that stubble, nodded and smiled: "Okay!" You have someone send the inventory to the ambush point! ”
They bid farewell to the governor of Jiangdu, and marched in the direction of the Tatar soldiers with the 50,000 soldiers and horses they had transferred.
It turned out that since he knew that Prince Qing was colluding with the Tatars, Xie Ruizhu asked people to check the general soldiers of the border towns who were close to Prince Qing.
Sure enough, it was found that Liu Xilie, the chief soldier of Datong, had already hooked up with Prince Qing, and this year, Prince Qing's second son Xie Zhengyue also married Liu Xilie's daughter Liu Yulan. The two families became in-laws again.
So, Xie Ruijiao sent Ling Feng and Ling Yun to Xuanfu Pass and Taiyuan Pass separately, and agreed with them that once Datong Pass was different, these two passes would send troops to outflank the enemy's rear in Datong from the left and right, burn its grain and grass, mess with its military morale, and catch him off guard.
After Ling Feng and Ling Yun got the promise of the two levels, they met in Datong, privately found the deputy general Lei Ming and the general Li Yang, and told Duan Wang and the emperor that they had learned that Liu Xilie had different intentions, and they would arrest him as soon as the time came.
The lieutenant general Lei Ming went from disbelief to indignation, and was determined to obey Duanwang's arrangement, and once Liu Xiyeol rebelled, he and his comrades would be immediately beheaded. Li Yang also responded. The four of them secretly agreed on a plan for the decapitation operation: divide and attack, close the door and catch the thief!
That is, let a part of the Tatar soldiers enter the pass, and then use the pass to cut it off from the troops behind, and then encircle and suppress this part of the lone army, and wipe out all of them.
In the end, Xuanfuguan also arranged for the deputy general Feng Mingze to take people to the only passage in Datong to Shangjing, and set up a firearm array and put it in his pockets, while Duanwang led his troops to meet him from the front.
These were the worst plans that Duanwang made at that time.
Prince Qing and Ryu Hee-yeol, but their plan and that for the king are not like this!
King Xian wants to be the crown prince and the emperor.
Prince Qing wanted to be independent of his own territory, even if he temporarily became a vassal state of the Celestial Empire, which required the recognition of his emperor's elder brother, and his elder brother, who inherited the Great Unification, could not let him divide the territory of the Celestial Empire.
But the king promised him that if he was allowed to ascend to the great treasure, he would let go and fulfill his imperial uncle. Therefore, Prince Qing also wants to dedicate the king to be the emperor.
Liu Xilie is an old town general, and after sitting in a position for a long time, he naturally became a fine. He has three sons, the eldest stays in the capital, and the second and third follow him as deputy generals in Datongguan. The three of Liu's father and son fought against the Tatars all year round, and gradually mingled with the enemy generals in private, benefiting each other and deceiving their superiors and subordinates.
When the enemy camp was short of food and grass, they would also take advantage of the dark night and high wind to smuggle some out of the customs to relieve the urgent needs of the Tatar barracks.
They need to ask the imperial court for meritorious service and reward, or they need the imperial court to allocate more military supplies, and the Tatars will also feign to attack, or deliberately throw away their armor and let Datongguan lie about the military situation.
After coming and going, Liu Xilie, Liu Chengwen, and Liu Chengwu thought that the Tatars had become their own people, and the Tatars had asked for them, so they naturally obeyed their words.
So Liu Xilie offered a plan to Prince Qing: switch to let the Tatars attack the pass, pretending to attack Kyoto, and Ji Guifei should cooperate with the outside, when the military situation was urgent, Datong Pass raised troops and forced the emperor to give way to the emperor's fourth son, Xie Ruiqing. After the emperor abdicated, the Tatars retreated outside the customs.
"Good plan!" Prince Qing said with a smile: "With the old general's resourcefulness and command, the old general can go to the king's Xia Kingdom in the future and become a general of the country!" ”
Liu Xilie said proudly: "General Ben has supported countless Tatar grain and grass for many years, and they have long obeyed my words, and it is not the first time that such a feint has been done. Prince Qing although rest assured with this Tatar general. ”
This Tatar general's name is Mahamur, and he is the Tatar who was once rescued by Cheng Haitang's master and apprentice. He agreed to Liu Xiyeol's request to him, because he had his plan: he only needed to take the opportunity to send 100,000 troops to directly attack Kyoto!
The Beijing army practiced martial arts, and the king wanted to kill the prince, but Mahamur wanted to kill their emperor, while there was no emperor, the army invaded the capital, and the Celestial Empire would not face the sky?
The horse farm and the martial arts field are the industries that Prince De's Mansion has been operating for many years, and the king has to borrow both the field and the sword!
So, he dragged Prince De into the water again, because he knew that Prince De hated his adoptive mother Ji Guifei as much as he did.
Concubine Ji may never know that her three-year-old son Xie Ruiqing, who was obtained by killing her mother and taking away her son, got a letter left by his biological mother Concubine Li from the hands of a palace maid when she was five years old, and only then did she learn the real cause of his biological mother's death.
Xie Ruiqi has been determined to avenge his biological mother since he was a child, and he wants to use Ji Guifei to kill her after ascending to the throne, so that she can experience what it is like to lift a stone and hit her own feet!
The crown prince is mediocre, even if he ascends the throne, he has no strength to confront the Ji Party at all, perhaps, the fourth son of the emperor can use his identity as an adopted son to get rid of the demon Ji and eradicate the Ji Party as he said. Prince De thought so simply.
A group of people with different intentions joined forces to do a very bad thing.
Xie Ruijiao took advantage of himself to go to Nine Towns and buried some nails. When he returned to Kyoto, he coaxed his father to sign the "Nine Towns Offensive and Defensive Alliance Agreement", and then took advantage of the implementation of the agreement to make some personnel transfers between the various passes.
Lei Ming and Li Yang were the generals who went to Taiyuan Pass in that group of transfers.
If Haitang hadn't recognized the Tatar, and Ling Yun heard that he and Prince Qing were not of the same mind in the Tatars' separate interrogation of him, Xie Ruiji would not have guessed that the Tatars would have planned and attacked Kyoto.
You have a good plan, I have a wall ladder! Everything was just right.
Just like the pocket firearms array, from three-eyed guns to multi-shot guns, from thunderbolts to birds, from far to near, with the pre-buried fire thunder and poison gas mines, just enough to wipe out 20,000 Tatar soldiers.
And Mahamur was pierced through the heart by Ling Xue as early as in the competition in the martial arts arena, and no one would save him anymore. He wouldn't even know that both ends were in vain.
On September 15, Xie Ruijiao and Cheng Hanbai returned victorious.
