Chapter 0386: The Old Sheep Doesn't Die
Oh? Pu Jian led the army to withdraw from Gucheng and retreat to Guanzhong? β
Ran Min was still roasting the fire, and when he suddenly heard the news, he couldn't help but be stunned.
But then, Ran Min figured out the joints.
Pu Jian was a smart man, otherwise it would never have been possible for Fu Jian to lead his troops in the original history, and successfully entered the customs, and the capital was Chang'an (now Xi'an, Shaanxi).
It is worth mentioning that in history, Pu Jian, that is, Fu Jian, was the founder of the Former Qin Empire, and in 351 AD, he assumed the title of Heavenly King and established the Former Qin, with the name Huangshi.
The following year, Pu Jian was appointed emperor in the front hall of Taiji. Later, he repeatedly fought to conquer other Guannei forces that rebelled against the former Qin, and defeated the Jin army that invaded the north.
How can such a character not be able to see the current situation and the general trend clearly?
Ran Min originally thought that it would take some effort to defeat the combined forces of Pu Hong and Yao Yizhong, but he didn't expect it to be so easy. It seems that Pu Hong and Yao Yi Zhong are inseparable, and their alliance is even more vulnerable.
That's it!
Ran Min smiled and said, "Qin Mu, what do you think we should do now?" β
"Strangle the remnants of the Yong army in Bishan with all your might!"
"Good!"
"Knock knock! ......" The dull and oppressive sound of cowhide war drums resounded at the foot of the mountain.
Banner hunting, war drums thundering.
Dressed in fiery red uniforms, the Wei soldiers walked in unison steps, holding their heads high, like proud white swans one after another, and the spears they held in their hands pointed straight at the sky.
And in the mountain, it is a different scene.
The sky was full of blood, and a few geese flew by with a mournful cry, as if wailing for the dead soldiers. As far as the eye could see, it was all red, and the red was terrifying, with flags and weapons everywhere, and a few fireworks burning, as if to tell people about the war that had just happened.
"King! The Wei army is attacking again! β
Hearing this, Yao Yizhong, who was already sitting on the ground, had no joy or sadness on his face, and no one knew what he was thinking in his heart.
Yao Yizhong looked around, full of devastation, surrounded by the scorched land burned by the flames of war, the simple camp, all the soldiers with injuries and colors, and the half-dead soldiers, they were all like living dead, their eyes were dull, and they didn't stand up. γ‘ζ°γ€(8)1 Chinese ηΆ²ΟΟΟ.Ο8.1zΡ.cΓ²ΠΌ
How can such a soldier, such an army, fight?
Looking at Yao Yizhong's expression, Yao Yi next to him felt very uncomfortable, so he kicked down a listless soldier next to him: "You fucking you!" Give Lao Tzu a spiritual point! Stand up for Lao Tzu! β
Forced by Yao Yi's might, a large group of soldiers stood sparsely, but they were still like frosted eggplants, listless, as if a gust of wind could blow them to the ground.
"Bastard! ......" Yao Yi just wanted to scold, when he heard Yao Yizhong beside him say loudly, "That's enough." β
"Father."
"Alas!" Yao Yizhong sighed faintly and said, "Jingsheng, it's enough, it's really enough." The army is now besieged in this mountain, there is a shortage of food, and it has been attacked by the Wei army day and night, and the losses are heavy, and the soldiers are understandable for this. β
How cruel this war is, in fact, Yao Yizhong himself knows it.
The Yongjun fled into the mountain in a hurry, without any food or grass of their own, and on the second day, every soldier was basically fighting on an empty stomach.
After several breakouts, the soldiers were lost, and a few soldiers did not escape, and in the case of lack of food, the Yongjun army finally collapsed.
In desperation, many soldiers of the Yongjun army could only gnaw tree bark, eat soil, and even secretly kill war horses to satisfy hunger. What's more, he didn't even let go of the corpses of his comrades-in-arms and shared them.
At this point, the Yongjun army has come to the brink of collapse!
"Jingsheng, how many soldiers and horses do we have in our hands now?"
"Father, there are less than 20,000 people."
The original 100,000 horses (of which 20,000 were the Qin army), only 20,000 soldiers and horses remained, and the Yong army can be described as dead and surrendered, and it is no longer able to resist.
Hearing this, Yao Yizhong covered the faintly painful wound on his chest, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
"Father."
Yao Yizhong waved his hand, indicating that he was fine.
"Jingsheng, I've heard such a sentence. The old sheep does not die, but the little sheep does not survive. It is said that under the siege and interception of a hungry wolf, the old sheep and the little sheep will die. The old sheep chose to die by himself, and let the little sheep survive. Jingsheng, do you understand what I mean? β
Looking at the weak Yao Yizhong, Yao Yi couldn't help but burst into tears, and sobbed: "Father, don't say that, we will definitely fight our way out of the encirclement." Let's go back to Chang'an together! β
"No!"
Yao Yizhong gritted his teeth and said, "Jingsheng, you should know what the situation is now." Pu Jian's reinforcements can't be counted on, we have been besieged in this mountain for seven days and nights, if the Qin army came to reinforce, it would have come to reinforce a long time ago. Jingsheng, listen to me, Pu Hong's wolf ambition is not a good match! After I die, Pu Hong will definitely hit our Yongguo with his mind, and when the time comes, you must protect our Qiang people! β
"Father! You ......"
"Yes, for the father, this is an account of the future."
Yao Yizhong glanced around, then put his eyes on Yao Yi's body, and said, "When I was young, I didn't manage the industry and took shelter and relief as my business, so I was very respected. In the second year of the Yongjia Rebellion, my father moved eastward to Yumei, and there were tens of thousands of Hu people and Han people who supported the old and the young. β
"I vaguely remember the past. When Liu Yao, the emperor of the Xiongnu Zhao State, eliminated Chen An, who was in Longxi, and the tribes of the Di and Qiang tribes in the Guanlong region sent hostages to ask for the surrender of Zhao. β
Yao Yizhong's face was filled with a look of reminiscence, and he said lightly: "Then, Emperor Wu (Shi Hu) at that time led the army to eliminate the Xiongnu Zhao State, and I surrendered to the Zhao State. Whether it is Shi Le or Shi Hu, they all treat me very seriously and treat each other with courtesy, I was the governor of the ten counties and six Yi at that time, and the champion general. β
"It's a pity that the good times didn't last long, and I took refuge in two Zhao countries, but both Zhao countries have already perished. I, Yao Yizhong, have a total of forty-two sons (historical facts), but the outstanding ones are you Yao Yi, Yao Xiang and Yao Ruo, now Yao Xiang is guarding Chang'an, Yao Ruo has died on the battlefield yesterday, only you are still by my side. β
"Jingsheng, you are my eldest son, you should take over my power and continue to lead the rise of our Qiang people."
"Father. Child......"
"The biggest regret in my life is that I couldn't see Ran Wei's defeat in person! One day, Ran Min dies, you must tell me when you worship me. β
"Yes, Erchen knows." Yao Yi couldn't cry.
Yao Yizhong said again: "The Shi family treats me well, I originally wanted to try my best to help them. And today the Shi clan has been destroyed, and the Central Plains has no owner; After I die, you must return to the Jin Chamber as soon as possible, and stick to the courtiers' festivals, and do not do unrighteous things. β
This is Yao Yizhong's only concern.
Yao Yizhong knew that the Qiang people were weak, and looking at the Central Plains, they were far from being the opponents of the Han people, Huns, and Xianbei people.
But now the situation does not allow it!
The main force of Yongguo was almost wiped out in this battle, and there was no ability to protect itself, even if they wanted to keep the existing territory, the strong neighbors on all sides would not give up, at least Zhang Jun and Pu Hong, who had seized Guanlong, would not let go of the Qiang people.
For today's plan, the only way to do this is to take refuge in the relatively powerful Jin State, and under the protection of the Jin State, the Qiang people can continue to reproduce and stay away from this war whirlpool!
