Chapter 546: Qishan (5)
The Shouchun court is discussing at the moment, just because the original southwest is waiting for a letter, and wants to bring the 100,000 horses under his command to the Northern Dynasty.
For this southwestern candidate who defected from the master, the Northern Emperor was eager to eat his flesh raw, but he coveted the 100,000 horses.
Fleeing from Luoyang to Shouchun, the Northern Emperor originally wanted to take down Zhongyonghou and Youya old thieves, and then digested the tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, but before he could make a move, the people fled to the Southern Dynasty, and he almost vomited blood in anger.
After settling in Shouchun, although the troops of nearby states and counties were gathered, there were less than 100,000 people so far.
I heard that the Northern Barbarians transferred another 50,000 people from the royal court, plus the Xianbei Huangmao who was about to enter Luo, the barbarian army was as many as more than 300,000, and Shouchun's little man was not enough to stuff the barbarian's teeth!
In the past few days, officials in the DPRK and China have been anxious about recruiting troops. The letter from the southwest is tantamount to sending charcoal in the snow.
There are officials admonishing, and great disaster is coming, as an emperor, you must have the grace to tolerate people.
Beidi was angry in his heart, where is the dignity of the emperor?
There were also officials who opposed the use of the Southwest Hou, believing that such betrayers did not deserve to be forgiven by the court and the people. In addition, what if this is another delaying tactic in the southwest, after Shouchun, there will be a counter-killing? The soldiers in the hands of the southwest wait, it is not good to fight the barbarians, but killing the eggs of the recruits is a top trick!
The two sides insisted on their own words, quarreled endlessly, and even fought, and Beidi was dizzy and quietly left the main hall.
Looking at the low walls of the palace, the Northern Emperor was a little frustrated, how could he be so sad as an emperor? escaped from the capital Luoyang like a lost dog, cowered in this small palace, and lost half of the southern land, and was about to face the pressure of a strong enemy, it was simply embattled!
"Anshun, how do you say I should make a decision about this matter?" Beidi asked.
Anshun was meritorious in saving the car when he was in Luoyang, and after Shouchun, the Northern Emperor continued to keep him by his side as the chief manager.
"In the major affairs of the court, how can a eunuch intervene as a slave, but just now the Ministry of War Shangshu reported that Xie Xun of Ganzhou was bullying people and forced Qinzhou to assassinate Shi Zhou Xing to cede the east of Qishan ......"
"Does this matter have anything to do with whether or not to use the southwest?"
During the court discussion, the Northern Emperor heard the performance of the military department, but he was worried about the affairs of the southwest and did not pay attention.
"Old slaves often hear people say that if someone wants to join the bandits, that person must hand in a petition ......"
"Hun said, I am talking about the major affairs of the court and politics, what are you talking about...... mountain bandits" Beidi's eyes lit up, "What do you mean, let the southwest Hou lead the troops to fight Xie Xun?" ”
An Shun smiled slightly, "With the combat strength of Xie Xun and Xie Jiajun, if the southwest waits to beat him, most of them will be defeated." Ganzhou, the southwest hou is bound to be unable to take it, and the emperor will be asked to contain it at that time, at this time, the southwest hou is already a tiger with teeth extracted, and it is not a threat to the emperor. The emperor can still ask Xie Xun for private fighting during the chaos......"
"Kill two birds with one stone!" Beidi was overjoyed and patted An Shun's shoulder appreciatively, "You, it's a pity not to be the secretary of the military department!" ”
An Shun smiled flatteringly, "The old slave is a eunuch, and he is already content to be able to relieve the emperor's worries." ”
Beidi laughed and walked towards the main hall, but he didn't see the sneer on the corner of An Shun's mouth, stupid, if it weren't for weakening Xie Xun's power, I would let you take advantage?
In a valley two hundred miles north of Luoyang City.
"Father, it's time to eat." Pei Xiuniang handed a bowl of rice bran paste to her father.
Nan Hou looked at the mushy words, and turned his face away in disgust, "Is there nothing else to eat?" ”
Pei Xiuniang sighed, "That can only kill the horse." ”
The escape from Luoyang was too hasty, and the grain and grass were not sufficient. I didn't expect Luoyang to last for so many days! They were afraid to reveal their whereabouts, so they attracted the attention of the northern barbarians, and they have been nesting in the valley. 100,000 horses, grain and grass soon bottomed out. Three days earlier, the food had run out, and the soldiers could only eat leaves and bark. If it weren't for the strict order to kill the horses in the southwest, the mounts would have been slaughtered cleanly.
Nan Nanhou swallowed and foamed, closed his eyes, pinched his nose, and finished pouring the bowl of rice bran paste, when Chang threw away the earthen bowl and stood up, "I can't wait any longer." Gotta out of the valley! ”
"Father, Shouchun's Eagle Letter!" Pei Youan ran into the tent with an excited face.
Nan Nan Hou and Pei Xiuniang rushed over, their eyes wide, "What do you say?" ”
"The imperial court asked you to lead troops to fight Xie Xun, and said that they would find a way to lure away the northern barbarians." Pei Youan's eyes lit up, "Father, we can go back to Ganzhou!" ”
"Idiot!" Southwest Hou shouted angrily, "Can we do anything better than Xie Xun?" Beidi wants to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, and reap the benefits of the fisherman! ”
Nannan Hou didn't want to grow the morale of others and destroy his prestige, but the facts were in front of him, he couldn't beat Xie Xun, and the soldiers under his command couldn't beat Xie Jiajun!
Pei Youan was a little unconvinced, "After the Snow Country, the Xie family army in Ganzhou is only 40,000 people, and we have 100,000 soldiers and horses...... Gotta give it a try. What's more, this is still an order from the Northern Emperor. ”
Now that the prefectures and counties north of Luoyang have been broken by the barbarians, the Northern Emperor wants them to hand in their names, so it is a way to survive to fight Ganzhou.
Southwest Hou snorted coldly, "It's better to fight Ganzhou, it's better to do Qinzhou!" ”
"Father's trick is so good!" Pei Xiuniang praised, "Compared with Ganzhou, which is barren and has a strong enemy, the rich Qinzhou is the best battlefield." It's just that my father is going to disobey the holy order again, and he will have to bear the infamy of provoking war. ”
"If you become a king or lose a villain, you are not afraid to bite if you have more lice on your body, so what if you disobey again? Let's go, go to Qinzhou! After Nannan Hou shouted loudly, he was a little worried, "Does the Northern Emperor really have a way to lure away the Northern Barbarians?" Don't let us go out, we'll be surrounded by the Northern Barbarians. ”
"What's the situation, send a team of people to investigate, don't you know?" Pei You'an was tired of nestling in this bare valley that was about to be eaten. He wants to fight out and have a good meal, even if it takes human life to open the way to the outside world!
Beijung garrison camp.
Because he suffered a big loss in Luoyang City before, Hu Yanqi didn't know if there was still a pit dug by Xie Xun in Luoyang City, and he didn't dare to take risks, so he simply withdrew from Luoyang City and guarded the pass, leaving only the entrance to the east to Xianbei Huangmao.
The pit dug by Xie Xun is still left to Xianbei Huangmao to jump!
Luoyang City, which also covets the rich, sooner or later they will have a big battle with Xianbei Huangmao, just to weaken the opponent's strength first.
In the big tent of the Chinese army, Hu Yanqi looked at the letter in his hand, his eyebrows twisted into Sichuan characters, and after thinking for a while, he finally shook his head, "I can't let those Han people go over, and the soldiers below won't agree!" ”
"But that's my uncle's request." Lan Yue lowered her voice, "Uncle won't harm you." ”
Hu Yanqi pulled the corners of his mouth with a smile, secretly thinking, this is not necessarily, it is not my race, and its heart must be different. Who knows what's going on in that uncle's mind? It's like the sister on the other side doesn't know what he really thinks.
"Sister, I am the Great Khan of Beirong, how can I let the Han soldiers who slaughtered countless soldiers of my clan walk under my nose safely? How do you want me to explain to the soldiers? ”
"Then bluff a bit." Lan Yue held her brother's shoulder and patiently persuaded, "Those people are going to fight some honors." Didn't you always want to kill Xie Xun to take revenge? ”
Hu Yanqi pouted secretly, if it weren't for Sister A, you would have returned to the mountain?
However, Hu Yanqi was finally moved, and it was good to let those Han people kill each other.
Ganzhou, thousands of miles away.
Yingxin passed the news to Xie Xun that the Shouchun court had ordered the southwest to wait for Xie Xun to seek justice for Zhou Xing, the assassin of Qinzhou.
"My subordinates will go and prepare for war." Nine Bowls.
"Not busy." Xie Xun's face was calm, "Let's sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight first." ”
Jiuwan glared inexplicably, "Where did the tiger fight come from?" ”
Aren't they one of the tigers?
