Chapter 072: Offering Good Strategies and Tempting Again
Yelu Chongyuan said, tears actually fell: "Just when the black wolf was about to take my life, Lord Urna tried his last strength, reached out and went straight into the wolf's mouth, and actually broke off the upper teeth of this wolf tooth that was more than five inches, and in an instant, the wolf's blood gushed out like a waterfall, staining a large area of yellow sand, and its painful wail, I still have palpitations when I think about it. ”
"I don't understand, why did my father save you, he clearly wanted to kill you!" Dashi looked at Yelu Chongyuan with a puzzled face.
"The so-called heroes sympathize, maybe he thinks that I am more suitable to be the emperor than the unlearned Yelu Hongji!"
Dashi shook his head and sneered: "An emperor who plots to ascend to the throne by such despicable means as kidnapping women and playing with Chunshi? ”
Seeing that Yelu Chongyuan seemed to be ashamed, Dashi was no longer aggressive, and he sighed and said, "What about the black wolf? ”
The wolf was badly wounded, and fled, and the rest of the wolves went with him. I saw that Lord Urna was already exhausted, so I went to the Pusuwan Division, which was not far away, to seek refuge. ”
Dashi snatched the wolf tooth pendant and got up, and said solemnly: "Although Pu Suwan is thousands of miles away from the Great Liao Imperial Court, but in the end, I am a Khitan subordinate, how can I shelter you for so many years?" ”
Yelu Chongyuan smiled bitterly and said, "If you want to know the reason, please come with me." ”
Subsequently, Yelu Chongyuan, Dashi, Zhao Weiwei, Ta Buyan, and Ulanri walked out of the cave together, looked at the foot of Black Eagle Mountain, and completed the camp tent at Pusu, which stretched for hundreds of miles, and was almost not spared in the overnight fire.
At this moment, a general speedy ran up the mountain in a panic and knelt directly in front of Yelu Chongyuan.
"Dorzi, what's going on down the mountain?" Yelu Chongyuan asked.
Seeing that the person who came was the general Pu Suwan who had accepted the medicinal herbs, Daishi hurriedly turned sideways to hide his face, for fear of being recognized by him.
"Back to Engong, last night for some reason, the water at the camp gate was gone, and the fire swept the camp by the wind, burning countless clansmen and horses, and the Lord Linya, who came to visit the capital, was also lost in the fire!"
When Dashi heard this, he knew that Pu Suwan had not yet realized that the person who set the fire was himself, and a hanging heart was put down.
"General Dorji, in Xia and his family are safe, dare to ask the Empress Dowager Yuelu if she was injured in the fire?"
Dorji was a little surprised to see that Dashi was still alive, but compared to the safety of Pu Suwan's department, he didn't care very much about whether a visitor from the capital was alive or dead, so he didn't say anything: "Thanks to General Xiao Ra'abu's alertness, the Queen Mother was sent to a safe place when the fire broke out, so it was fine." ”
"What about the herbs?"
Hearing Yelu Chongyuan's question, Dorji suddenly beat his chest and said: "The important thing is this matter, all the herbs sent by General Xiao were burned in the fire, and there was not even a single dregs left!" ”
"Bastard!"
Yelu Chongyuan was furious: "If there are no medicinal herbs, none of the more than 100,000 diseased war horses will be spared, and the decades of painstaking experience between me and the Empress Dowager Yuelu will be ruined, you ...... Why don't you put it properly?! ”
Dorji hurriedly buckled his head and said: "Although I, Dorji, am not bright-minded, I also know that this war horse is the foundation of my general speed. Since the arrival of Lord Chongyuan, who taught us the art of domesticating the war horses of the Great Liao, and made our tribe a tribe that the Western Xia and Gaochang Uighurs were afraid of, how could I play the horse trouble?
It's just that the fire last night was too big, and several brothers didn't snatch out the medicinal herbs after losing their lives, I ...... I'm guilty! ”
With that, Dorzi, who was as strong as an ox, wept like a woman.
"I see!" Dashi secretly said in his heart: "Yelu Chongyuan was once the generalissimo of the soldiers and horses of the Liao State, so he naturally knew the ingenuity of selecting and breeding good horses, and the Pusuwan Department also took this opportunity to become the tribe with the most cavalry in the west of Kedun City.
The Western Xia wanted to mobilize troops against our Great Liao, but they were afraid that the cavalry of the Uighurs in Gaochang and Pusuwan in the west would take the opportunity to attack and harass its rear, so they never made a move. Now that the Great Song Dynasty has Chen soldiers on the Hengshan line in the south of Western Xia, I am afraid that Li Qianshun and Li Zhizhong at this time are already sitting on pins and needles, and they have no intention of targeting Da Liao.
Da Liao has less troubles on the west side, and he can dispose of the Shengnu Zhenbu in the east with peace of mind, and there is no shortage of people of insight in the court, so he will not let go of this God-given opportunity!
It's just that the horse disease that changed the color of the Ulan Ritan, and the fire I lit with my own hands, is very likely to break the balance of the battle situation on the Western Front, if the Gaochang Uighurs take the opportunity to attack and kill Pusuwan, the Western Xia will no longer have to worry about the future, such a situation will do all kinds of harm to the Great Liao and no benefit, I must find a way to help the Pusu Completion Department tide over the current difficulties! ”
Thinking of this, Dashi opened his mouth and asked, "General Dorji, don't be sad, dare to ask what disease your war horses are suffering from?" What are the symptoms? ”
Dorji said: "Sick horses bleed from their mouths and noses, or suffocated to death, and those few that recovered themselves could no longer travel long distances and could no longer be used as war horses." The most troublesome thing is that a horse is sick, a ten, ten is a hundred, and thousands of horses will be damaged in just a few days, and only a good prescription for the configuration of the heavy yuan can be resolved. ”
"Lord Chongyuan, can you borrow a prescription to take a look?"
Yelu Chongyuan nodded, handed the prescription to Dashi, and explained the pharmacology of the medicinal materials one by one.
Dashi bears the position of Lin Ya, the world's classics have long been memorized, and medical works are also among them, seeing that the prescription is nothing more than Chuanbei, Banxia, ephedra, licorice and other drugs to dispel lung fire, you will know that Yelu Chongyuan and his people are also well versed in pharmacology.
"This prescription of Lord Chongyuan takes into account both the inside and the outside, it is very symptomatic, when there is a medicine to eliminate the disease, but from the perspective of the big stone, the key to eradicating horse disease is not to treat, but to avoid!"
Hearing Dashi's words, Yelu Chongyuan immediately said, "What does Lin Ya mean? I want to hear about it! ”
"The Yellow Emperor's Neijing" has a cloud: the five plagues are all easy to dye, regardless of the size, the symptoms are similar, when avoiding its poisonous ......, the sages have already had a way to get rid of the epidemic, and it is the best policy to keep the Kangtai generation away from the sick people!"
"Lin Ya has a point!" Yelu Chongyuan clapped his hands and said: "Dorji, you quickly bring back all the grazing war horses, or fifty-one or one hundred and one circles, and divide and feed them, and you can't open the circle without an order!" ”
"Order!"
Dorji hurriedly descended the mountain, and Zhang Luo the tribesmen who survived the fire, and divided and kept all the war horses scattered in the Black Eagle Mountain Yin in captivity, and so on for three days, all of them were completed.
Knowing that the cure for horse disease was offered by Dashi, the Empress Dowager Yuelu ignored the slight injury on her arm and held a banquet for three days, which made Dashi feel ashamed.
"Compare hearts to hearts, so that each has its own level. Your ministry is a subordinate of my Great Liao vassal, and I am also a courtier of the Great Liao, so I should offer advice and advice, and the Queen Mother does not have to take it to heart. ”
"Having said that, if everyone in the Great Liao courtiers is like Lin Ya, there will be no wolf plague in the past when I finished the army."
"Time has passed, and the Queen Mother doesn't have to bother herself with the things of the past."
Empress Dowager Yuelu nodded and said, "My lord is right, I'm old, and I shouldn't keep holding on to the past." ”
"I hope it is as the Queen Mother said!" Dashi raised his head and saw that the old lady's eyes were empty, as if she was recalling something, so she suddenly said: "Princess Nanxian often mentions you!" ”
