Chapter 350: It Doesn't Matter
With the addition of these seven guards, there are eight Extreme Realm masters on this trip. "Words * love * first * hair [burn ^ text ^ library] []. [774] [buy].]
If you plan carefully, it is really possible to kill into Nalon's tent and rescue the hostages.
It's just that the danger still exists, after all, everyone doesn't know that Su Mo has been destroyed by Lin Si Niehe and the others.
They knew that when the time came, they would not only have to face the army of the Grassland Country, but also face the two realm-breaking masters of Na Long and Su Mo.
It was impossible to fight head-on, even if it was just against Su Mo and Nalong, there would still be casualties if they joined forces in the eight extreme realms.
The only way to do this is to try to avoid the real and the false, which can not only rescue the hostages, but also avoid fighting the enemy's main force head-on.
However, even if they cooperated with Mu Zheping to rescue the hostages, how could they take them safely across the grassland and return to Qiansong......
After the hostages escaped, the steppe people would definitely pursue them all the way, and in that kind of unhindered terrain, how could they get rid of the steppe cavalry?
At this moment, Xie Shaoying missed Lin Si very much, and he believed that if Lin Si was here, he would not have to worry about this at all.
Seeing that these people returned to the camp one after another and took out their weapons, the Qiansong soldiers around them could no longer stand.
The grassland people took hostages and demanded sky-high compensation from Qiansong, which was the shame of Qiansong. But, like Baek Kyung-hwan, they can't do anything either.
If they could, they wanted to rush forward and fight to the death with the steppe people before, but the other party held hostages, and even General Qiu couldn't do anything, so what could they do?
Especially thinking of the arrogant faces of the grassland people when they held the hostages before, each of them held a breath in their hearts and couldn't spit it out smoothly.
However, now that they learned that they might not have to worry about the other party blackmailing them with hostages, they only needed to rush in and fight the grassland people to their heart's content, so that they could save the hostages and restore the prestige of the Thousand Songs, their hearts all became hot.
Especially seeing that Xie Shaoying, Bai Jinghuan, several guards from the Ji Mansion and the Wang Mansion were ready to go, and many soldiers clenched their fists.
In their opinion, they were soldiers of Qiansong, and it should have been their duty to rescue the hostages. And fighting the steppe people has always been my vocation, and it is what I have been doing all along!
Even Xie Shaoying, Bai Jinghuan and several guards could come forward, why did they hold back?
They hope to join this rescue operation and hope to kill a few more prairie people!
However, they are military men, they can only wait for orders, without which they cannot make their own decisions......
So they frequently looked at their superiors, at their commanders.
This gaze is getting more and more, and it is getting hotter and hotter.
Finally, after several of the guards all rolled over and got on their horses, someone couldn't help it.
"General, shall we go too?" said one soldier, gritting his teeth.
As if the floodwaters had opened the floodgates, this sentence elicited countless responses.
"Yes, General, we'll go too!"
"Kill a few more prairie dogs!"
"General, the prairie dog deceives people too much, General, you give the order!"
"Death is death, general, as long as you give the order, I will give up this life and do it!"
......
At this time, the Thousand Song defenders who remained in the valley, plus the two thousand monks battalion, were no less than eight thousand. Almost all of these people were so excited that they asked for battle, and even many middle-level officers joined in, and the whole valley seemed to become noisy because of this.
"Shut up!" The supreme commander of the defenders who remained here now was an adjutant general under Qiu Wendong.
Why didn't he want to rescue the hostages? It's just that, as the person in charge here, he couldn't do anything rashly, and he didn't get Qiu Wendong's orders.
Not to mention......
"Our task is to guard Changhua Mountain! There can't be no one here, understand? What if after we leave, the grassland people come in again?"
After his words fell, many of the defenders could only reluctantly shut their mouths.
Indeed, Changhua Mountain is the barrier of the Thousand Song Dynasty, and there has never been no one here, especially when the grassland people attacked it just now.
Could it be that they just watched the nine of them go? Where did they put the faces of the Thousand Song soldiers?
And...... Can they do it with such a small number of people?
Not only the defenders here, but even the two monk battalions participating in the competition can only watch unwillingly now. The competition is over, and their next step should be to return to Pingwei City, and then perform other tasks, and they can't act on their own until they get the latest order.
Bai Jinghuan was a little disappointed in his heart, in fact, he also understood that it would be difficult for him to succeed with the nine of them, but he also understood the difficulties of these defenders.
He had no way to accuse them, and he had no position to persuade them.
Just when he was holding out no hope, a figure suddenly appeared in front of his horse's head.
"Lord Commander, the contest is not over yet! please lead us to continue this contest!"
The person who spoke was none other than Du Yu, the thousand-horse commander of Bai Jinghuan's group of monks' battalion!
Isn't the competition over? And both himself and you have been eliminated, aren't they? Bai Jinghuan didn't react for a while.
But in an instant, he understood what Du Yu meant. He nominally said that he would continue to compete, but in fact, he hoped that he would take them to the grassland to save the hostages!
After all, they are not the defenders here, but they can't act without orders.
As long as they continue to compete in the name of competition, they can follow them to the grassland country without worrying about disobeying military orders!
In fact, the competition between him and Xie Shaoying has not ended at all.
Xie Shaoying did not find the flag, let alone keep the flag for an hour, this reason is not unworkable.
The only obstacle is that they have been eliminated, and even if the competition is not over, they cannot act.
However, presumably at this time, both Xie Shaoying and the surrounding defenders will deliberately ignore this, right?
Thinking of this, he was overjoyed and said, "Okay! The second battalion of the monk regiment belongs to it, quickly equip the horses, bring all the three-day rations, and follow me ......."
He pointed to the endless prairie in front of him with his horsewhip, and laughed: "Let's go ahead and find the flag!"
"Yes!" Including Du Yu, a thousand people from the second battalion responded with a bang!
The surrounding Qiansong defenders, even the guard, showed a look of envy in their eyes, but they didn't expect Du Yu to take advantage of this loophole.
Now the people of the second battalion of their monk regiment got their wish, but it is a pity that their defenders cannot do so.
Seeing this, the battalion belonging to Xie Shaoying couldn't sit still!
Lin Yong is not a stubborn person? Immediately drew a gourd in the same way, clenched his fists and asked Xie Shaoying for instructions: "Lord Commander, please take us to find the flag together!"
Xie Shaoying comprehended, raised his long sword and said loudly: "The first battalion of the monk regiment belongs, fully equipped, horses and sufficient rations, and go with me on the expedition!"
He was confident that with the help of the 2,000 monks' battalion, the operation would be a success!
......
This private action that took place at the foot of Changhua Mountain has not had time to be reported in a short period of time.
The Qiansong guard was extremely cooperative with the people in the monk camp, and even before they left, he patted Du Yu on the shoulder and asked him to kill a few more grassland people for him.
Even the garrison of Pingwei City, which was more than ten miles away, didn't know about this unauthorized action at this time, let alone Dingchuan City, which was thousands of miles away.
When the news of the abduction of hundreds of wealthy young masters reached Dingchuan City, no one knew that 2,000 people had already thrown themselves into the rescue operation without authorization.
As Qiu Wendong expected, after the King of the Thousand Song Dynasty heard the conditions offered by the grassland people, his face instantly turned extremely blue.
Qiu Wendong can think of everything, he can think of everything.
This matter can be called inexplicable.
If the steppe people are paid a sky-high 'ransom', the loss of Qian Song will be huge, and he will become weak for many years to come.
It seems that it is only a year's treasury income, but without this year's income out of thin air, the future development of Qiansong will be difficult. Both the military and all aspects of the people's livelihood can only be drastically reduced. And many plans will also stall because there is no money to invest.
In this case, Qian Song has to always be on guard against the grassland people coming again......
However, if the 'ransom' is not paid, more than 150 people will be killed.
These more than 150 people, they themselves are nothing, but their family members are all important ministers in the Thousand Song Dynasty, or giants of the Chamber of Commerce.
Once they learned that they had abandoned their descendants, they were left to fend for themselves. Even if they don't say anything on the surface, they are afraid that their hearts will become cold.
If this continues, the Qiansong monarchs and ministers, who were originally of one heart and one mind, are afraid that they will have disagreements because of this.
And it's not just them, after this matter spreads, the people of Qiansong will also wait for the court's decision.
Whether this ransom is given or not, I am afraid that a considerable part of the population will be dissatisfied.
For a moment, he became at a loss. At the same time, he regretted it, knowing that this was the case, the competition between Xie Shaoying and Bai Jinghuan would not be arranged in Pingwei City. If this was the case, it should have been ordered to prohibit others from watching......
So he recruited Old Man Ji again, hoping that the old prime minister could give a proposal.
After listening to the narration of King Qiansong, Old Man Ji fell into a long silence.
King Qiansong didn't rush him, because he knew the tricky Cheng dΓΉ of this matter, and he didn't even expect Old Man Ji to really give a good Jian.
It's just the last glimmer of hope.
I don't know how long it took, Old Man Ji's old voice sounded in the imperial study.
"Save, it must be saved...... he said in an unmistakable tone.
"However, the amount of ransom demanded by the steppe people is too large, and we are likely to be devastated by this, and even taken advantage of by the steppe people......"
Before he could finish speaking, King Qiansong couldn't wait to speak.
His words are not alarmist. Over the years, Qian Song has made great efforts to block the grassland people. Once they learned that they were weak, they were afraid that the steppe people would gather various tribes to join forces to attack......
Old Man Ji waved his hand and said slowly: "I know that this ransom cannot be given. β
At this moment, the king of Qiansong was a little confused, how could this be done if he wanted to save them back and not give a ransom?
Don't......
"Do you want to send troops directly to rescue them?" but the steppe people have hostages, and once we send troops forward, those hostages will only be killed by them to vent their anger!" King Qiansong said with some uncertainty.
"So what?" Old Man Ji's face was indifferent, as if those hostages were dead and dead, and it was insignificant.
"But ......"
"All we need to do is save them. It doesn't matter if you can save it or not!" Old Man Ji added with a blank face.
Although there were only two people in the study, King Qiansong and Old Man Ji, King Qiansong couldn't help but look around.
He can imagine what kind of uproar it will cause if Old Man Ji's words get out. ___ Small / Say / Ba / Taxi xsbashi___
