Chapter 17: Broken (1)
Late at night, a cool breeze.
Mei Rong and Shen Liangchen sat opposite each other, facing the map on the table and pondering the changes in the battle situation.
"Yaohe City uses the Yao River as a natural barrier, and it is already difficult to capture ......" Mei Rong's slender fingers swept across the Yao River.
"No, not all." Shen Liangchen squinted his eyes and thought thoughtfully, "The Huawu City where we are located is in a high place, and it is condescending for Yaohe City. The Yao River is located in a valley, and although it is easy to defend and difficult to attack, if we attack from a high position, they will have to be captured. ”
"But...... The people of Nayaohe City are still on the city tower......"
"Then divide the Beihuping granary in half and let them go." Shen Liangchen spit out a sentence leisurely.
Mei Rong looked up at Shen Liangchen.
"It's just a temporary loan to them, and sooner or later they will have to vomit all the food back." Shen Liangchen hooked the corners of his mouth lightly, and drew circles with his index finger on the map with great interest, "Call Cui Shengxin over." ”
"Yes." Mei Rong got up and went out of the account, knowing in his heart that two or three points, this Shen Liangchen used troops and won the battle, and he was already determined to win.
It had been some time since the Battle of the Far North, and Chu Changting had been sitting on the swing in his courtyard all day long, his eyes looking straight to the north, and he was getting thinner and thinner.
"Miss, the north wind is getting more and more urgent. Let's go inside and rest. Xun'er distressed Chu Changting brought a rabbit fur cloak, but Chu Changting still swung on the swing with empty eyes, without the slightest intention of stopping.
"Sister, sister, I want to play too!" When he was looking for a child, Chu Nanfeng didn't know where to come out of nowhere, and rushed straight towards Chu Changting. Xun'er knew that Chu Changting's most painful thing on weekdays was her younger brother Chu Nanfeng, so she quickly grabbed Chu Nanfeng's little hand, dragged him aside, and said, "It's too cold, let your sister stop blowing the wind and swinging outside, and let her take you into the house to play chess!" ”
Although Chu Nanfeng is only ten years old, he is a full human spirit, he knows that his sister has been in a trance for a few days, so he listened to Xun'er's words, stepped forward and grabbed the rope of the swing and Chu Changting's skirt, rubbed on Chu Changting's chest for a while, and then said softly: "Sister, you accompany me into the house to play chess!" Master is sick, and I haven't had anyone to play chess with me for several days, and now my hands are itching! ”
Hearing Chu Nanfeng's words, Chu Changting reacted at this time, hooked his soul back, and a pair of apricot eyes came back to his senses as if he had just woken up from a dream, she stroked Chu Nanfeng's broken hair hanging on his forehead lovingly, pinched his little nose again, and then said dotingly: "Okay, okay, sister, I'll come into the house to play with you." ”
Seeing this, Xun'er hurriedly put on a cloak for Chu Changting and helped her get off the swing, and after being sent into the house, he hurriedly lit the stove and incense for her, and saw that Chu Changting had already played chess with Chu Nanfeng with great interest, so he breathed a sigh of relief, retreated to the outer hall, and muttered to the north with his hands folded: "General Shen...... You've got to come back safely......"
In Yaohe City, Wu Yike hurriedly trotted all the way, and the high car Yuchi cup of wine entered his throat, raised his eyelids, and saw Wu Yiku, who was red-faced and red-eared, running to kneel and salute: "King!" Cui Shengxin of Beitianzhuo waited outside the city gate with fifty carts and horses of grain, saying that he would give us half of the Beihuping granary, so that we could withdraw our troops and release people as soon as possible! ”
"Okay, it can be regarded as his Bei Tianzhuo has some sincerity." Gao Che Yuchi's heart that had been hanging for a few days finally let go, he knew that no matter how powerful the Extreme North Iron Cavalry was, it was only more than 80,000 after all, and the most important thing in his North Tianzhuo Country was soldiers and horses, and the 500,000 army could easily break him in the Far North, and he took risks every year to come here to grab food, but it was just to survive the winter, "Everything is fast, optimistic about the road conditions, seize the opportunity, release people to get food, and go north immediately!! ”
"Yes! Subordinates will do it! Wu Yiqi blushed his neck, panting and hurried out. Gao Che Yuchi looked into the distance with some concern, always feeling a little empty in his heart, as if he was as quiet as death before the crisis came.
"I always feel ...... Something is going to happen. Gao Che Yuchi clenched the wolf tooth wrench in his left hand, and his mind was suddenly chaotic and unable to think, he turned around a little angrily and knocked all the wine and food on the table to the ground, as if to vent the reluctance in his heart and the panic that came from nowhere.
Outside the city gate, the Far North Iron Cavalry and the Beitian Zhuojin Armor Army were doing the handover of food, Cui Shengxin sat firmly on the horse, squinted at Wu Yi, Wu Yanqi was hairy by him, pulled the reins, rode to a place two meters away from Cui Shengxin, and shouted: "Thank you, Lord Cui!" ”
"No thanks, but I hope that your country can keep its promise and withdraw its troops as soon as possible." Cui Shengxin said loudly.
"That's nature, a gentleman's word, the horse is hard to chase. We have all the people of Yaohe City put them back. It's just that we still need to keep the city lord and a group of officials to go north with us, and as long as we get out of the customs, we will release them immediately. ”
"What does the general mean is that he is afraid that we will not keep our promises?" Cui Shengxin frowned, and secretly scolded Di Ren in the extreme north.
"We also need to protect ourselves, and we won't hurt them. I hope you will forgive me! Wu Yan smiled roughly, and then shouted again, "Brothers! Hurry up! After moving, return to the city immediately to rest and withdraw the troops! ”
The wrinkles at the corners of Cui Shengxin's eyes twitched, and he felt a little angry in his heart, seeing that the grain and grass were about to be transported, he beckoned the soldiers to return to the camp. With his legs between his legs, the horse under his crotch galloped out.
"After two hours, if you don't withdraw your troops, you won't blame me for Beitianzhuo's unsympathy!!" Cui Shengxin's voice gradually drifted away with the sound of clattering horses' hooves, the corners of Wu Yan's mouth pulled stiffly, his rough big hands clenched the reins, there was a little anger in his eyes, a little worried, he also turned around and went back to the city, and said to the entourage on the side: "Inform everyone, withdraw the troops." ”
Taking advantage of the unpreparedness of the Far North Iron Cavalry, Shen Liangchen, who secretly bypassed Yaohe City, stood on the Void Mountain north of Yaohe City, watched from afar all the people outside the gate of Yaohe City disperse, turned to Mei Xiang and said, "Inform everyone not to act rashly, wait for me to give an order." ”
"Yes." Mei Makeup bowed her head lightly, and there was no trace of brilliance in her eyes.
