Chapter 286: Dangerous Person
The Jianchuan Army and the Tubo Army were like two fierce beasts after a fierce fight, each squatting in a corner. While licking and trying to hurt the wound, he kept a close eye on the other party's movements.
In the yamen of the Victorian state capital, Xiao Yunhe was holding a letter and frowning in embarrassment. He sent someone to invite Wu Yuanheng, who was comforting the wounded in the city.
"Bo Cang, you came just in time. Check it out. Xiao Yunhe handed the letter to Wu Yuanheng.
Wu Yuanheng took the letter and took a look at it, and said with a little crying and laughing: "My lord, this is ...... But how?"
"Yes!" Xiao Yunhe sighed lightly and said, "Yan Zhen loves Ma Xun and brings 20,000 soldiers and horses from Shannan West Road to help us fight. Not just a rare ally, but also our friend and benefactor. He wrote this letter. Request to be transferred to the Victorian front. I didn't say yes, and I didn't say yes. It's really embarrassing. β
Wu Yuanheng thought for a moment, smiled slightly, and said, "My lord, actually...... You should be able to figure out why Ma Xun did this. β
Xiao Yunhe himself smiled bitterly: "Naturally, I thought of some." A general like Ma Xun went to Yazhou. But he has to succumb to such a woman as Moyi. Ma Xun is not an acquaintance of ours, and he doesn't know much about Moyi and Dongnuguo. In terms of the general personality of a man, it will be a little awkward anyway. I had expected that since Yazhou was guarding the town with the people of the Eastern Women's Country as the main force, it would be better to give Moyi an empty title so that the people of the Eastern Women's Kingdom could feel at ease. When the time comes, let Ma Xun take charge of military affairs. Now it seems that Moyi is going to fake it. I heard from the messenger that she wore a red armor robe every day, and wore a terrifying and hideous monster mask, known as the Fire General. Command, train, and arm in the army. Almost all the men in the East Women's Country have filled the army, and the total number of soldiers and horses in Yazhou has reached more than 60,000. It's all led by ink. The 20,000 people brought by Ma Xun must also obey the reprimand. This was really unexpected. I didn't expect that Moyi really wanted to carry Yazhou on his shoulder. Ma Xun will definitely feel aggrieved if he goes, and he feels like he has been set aside. That's when he wrote to me in a tactful way, asking to be transferred to Victoria. β
Wu Yuanheng smiled slightly: "It seems that the Lord has already understood the geographical reasons, and His Majesty also guessed in this way." However, according to His Majesty. Princess Dugu didn't let her eyebrows, and she really had the ability to carry Yazhou down. Merely...... Ma Xun's side is indeed to be cautious. After all, they are not our own people. People come here for righteousness, but they can't be wronged. β
Xiao Yunhe shook his head again and again: "I naturally know this truth." But...... Is it difficult to remove? The people of Dongnu Kingdom will definitely be a little unhappy; really transfer Ma Xun here? It is not much of a contradiction, and it will also make people feel that Ma Xun and Mo Yi are at odds and ran away. Ignore it. Obviously, it is the most impolite and unreasonable. Yashu is another gateway and throat of Xichuan. If there is discord between the generals, the entire Shu land will be in danger. So. I'm really struggling with that. β
Wu Yuanheng thought for a while, and suddenly laughed. Xiao Yunhe was puzzled: "What are you laughing at?"
"I'm laughing, adults have always known people like torches, but they don't know much about what they love. β
Xiao Yunhe was stunned: "How can you say this?"
Wu Yuanheng said with a smile: "In the eyes of adults, Princess Dugu is just your woman after all, and you have never treated her as a talent." In fact, Princess Dugu has excellent martial arts and wit, far better than ordinary men. What's more, he grew up in the Dongnu country, where women are respected, and he is the queen of a country, and he has never lacked the vision, strategy and mental skills that a leader should have. Please forgive your majesty for saying bluntly: When the king of Han and the princess first met, wasn't she almost calculated? The lonely princess has the courage and wisdom to deal with the king of Han, how can she not manage the army well, how can she not resist the barbarian alliance with ghosts and scattered sand, and how can she not deal with a single Ma Xun?"
Xiao Yunhe blinked his eyes again and again: "When you say that, it seems to be really like that...... Although I know that Mo Yi is a heroine who does not lose to men, in my heart, after all, she is only my princess. There are some qualities of her, I have overlooked. Bo Cang, do you mean to say...... Ma Xun's matter, can Moyi's side handle it well?"
"Is the adult so unconfident in his own princess?" Wu Yuanheng laughed, "Although I have always insisted that women are not allowed to participate in politics, I have never dared to underestimate women. Especially in these extraordinary times, Princess Dugu's extraordinary identity must be fully utilized. Not to mention anything else, the lord appointed her as the envoy of the soldiers and horses of Yazhou, and in an instant, the Yazhou military town had 20,000 or 30,000 more soldiers and horses! Isn't this an unexpected gain? Moreover, ...... Hehe, it's not that your subordinates are boasting. Although Ma Xun is also a brave and resourceful famous general of Xingyuan Mansion, when it comes to playing with his heart, he is not Princess Dugu...... and my girl's opponent. I believe in them, they have their own way to make Ma Xun stay in Yazhou obediently. β
"This ......" Xiao Yunhe couldn't laugh or cry a little, "Bo Cang, it's the first time I've heard you praise a woman." However, we can't just sit idly by and let them solve it all on their own, right? After all, our attitude is crucial. β
"That's nature. Wu Yuanheng smiled, "Ma Xun, you can reply to him like this." Let's just say that at present, the war in Victoria is tense and supplies are tight, and it is temporarily impossible to arrange the stationing and food and grass supply of Ma Xun's army. Please wait a few more days, and there will be a time when he will be recruited to Victoria to participate in the decisive counterattack. β
"Decisive battle and big counterattack?" Xiao Yunhe heard Wu Yuanheng deliberately emphasize these words, and repeated them, and then laughed, "Not a bad idea." In this way, Ma Xun felt that he was really very important. He will find that his men and horses have been left to great use. β
"Your Excellency is right. We just want to make Ma Xun feel important. Wu Yuanheng said, "As for whether there will be a decisive counterattack, and even if there is, and when, even we ourselves can't say for sure." But he Ma Xun couldn't think of it in any way, we wanted to stabilize him first. All we have to do is buy time for Princess Dugu. I believe that as long as it starts over there, Ma Xun, as a soldier, will be impressed by Princess Dugu and the Dongnu army under her command. When the time comes, the contradiction will naturally be solved. At the same time, it is still necessary for adults to write a handwritten letter to Princess Dugu. might as well vaguely mention Ma Xun's love problem, so that she can know it in her heart. β
Xiao Yunhe was still shaking his head and smiling bitterly, and finally said with a smile: "So, I can only follow your bad idea?"
Wu Yuanheng laughed: "Although the idea is a little rancid, it may not be ineffective. Anyway, we can calm Ma Xun down for the time being, isn't it? As for the final effect, let's wait and see what General Agni can do!"
A severe cold and heavy snow swept through Xichuan. Maybe it's because of the anger of the gods, it rarely snows so heavily in Shudi. But this time, the sky was dark, and the north wind was howling and the snowflakes were flying, giving the Tubo people the illusion of returning to the plateau.
Although the Tibetan people have long been accustomed to this kind of weather, it is a bit miserable for the army that is out on the march. Mules and horses are prone to freeze to death, and soldiers cannot train and patrol normally in the snow, let alone fight. In desperation, Trisong Detsen had to give an order, and the whole army temporarily settled down and held the camp. Wait until it's over a snowy day.
The Tang army in Victorian City is still very well prepared. All kinds of materials are fully stocked, and cold protection measures are taken effectively and timely. This heavy snow was very beneficial to the Tang army. After all, they were defending the city, and it was easy to resupply. The Tibetans traveled thousands of miles, and the excessively long supply lines gave them worries.
Xiao Yunhe stood on the head of Victorian City in a thick fur coat, listening to the north wind whistling in his ears, and showed some smiles. He said to Wu Yuanheng beside him: "Bo Cang, this heavy snowfall is really timely. Gave us a great respite. If it takes one more day, the Tibetan people will have an additional layer of burden. We're all clear, and it's going to be very difficult for them to get supplies. As long as we can hold on, and then they are facing the crisis of food shortage, we will have a chance to take advantage of it. β
Wu Yuanheng nodded and said, "Having said that, you can't take it lightly. Since Trisong Detsen dared to lead the army in the middle of winter, he must have made a lot of preparations. Trisong Detsen's army was assembled from the Tugu Chuyan and Golmud areas. The Kunlun Mountains are their most important pastures and agricultural and pastoral areas. The supply of this army was mainly driven from that place. Although the heavy snow will have some effect, their supply line will hardly be hindered, and it will still be very smooth. If you just expect them to go out of food and retire, it is obviously a bit negative. β
"I know. I wasn't naΓ―ve either. It will be believed that Tri Song Detsen will take the initiative to withdraw his troops. It will be a protracted stalemate. Xiao Yunhe suddenly remembered something and said, "Bo Cang, do you remember Shi Jingfeng and the two hundred dead soldiers? It's been almost a month since they set off. I don't know...... How is the situation now. β
Wu Yuanheng said: "There is no room for optimism. At the beginning, Shi Jingfeng did not say where it would be interspersed into the hinterland of the Tubo people. It's just a vague mention that it is to take the abandoned ancient tea horse road, cross the purple mountain and go directly to Zhaling Lake and Ngoring Lake. That place was the most important pastoral land and farmland in Tibet. β
Xiao Yunhe was slightly startled. He said: "In this way, when they took the ground route, they happened to pass by the army of Trisong Detsen? After passing the Purple Mountain, it was the Yellow River and Jishi Mountain. Then we really have to go to the hinterland of Tibet. "Yes. Wu Yuanheng's face was a little grim and said. "I was even thinking that they ...... Is it already gone?"
Xiao Yunhe was speechless, quietly looking at the snowflakes flying in front of him, and sighed softly.
Late at night, splashing water into ice. On Ngoring Lake. There was a thick layer of ice.
A group of ghostly figures swayed quickly across the lake. Gradually, *** appeared ahead. Human voices were also faintly heard. One of them raised his hand sharply, and everyone behind him crouched down, raising his steps and approaching the shore of the lake gently. Soon, the group came together.
Shi Jingfeng tore off the cotton cloth that covered his mouth and nose and spit out a puff of hot air, and a cold light flashed in his triangular eyes.
"Brothers, are you afraid of death?" his voice was low and deep, like a ghost crying in the middle of the night. The officers and men of the Tang Army, who had gathered together, gritted their teeth and said softly: "If you are afraid of death, you will not come to be a dead soldier!" General. What to do, you give the order!"
"Very good!" Shi Jingfeng raised his fist, cheering up the soldiers who were about to freeze, and then pointed to a dark place and said, "I see that there is no piece over there, which is piled up like a hill." That is the granary of the Tibetan people. I was here with a merchant who betrayed the tea. Zhaling Lake and Ngoring Lake. It is the largest granary in the Tugu Chuyan area of the Tubo people. Now that they have conquered the land in person, a large amount of grain and grass will be stationed here and ready to be transported to the front. Tonight. We'll give him a pot to cook!"
"Good!" all the soldiers whispered in surprise. Shi Jingfeng hurriedly waved his hand, signaled everyone to silence, and then said: "The Tibetan barbarians have a habit. When it snows heavily, you don't do anything. will only hide in the felt tent, sing, drink and play with women. Otherwise, with the garrison here, it will be difficult for us to attack. This heavy snowfall came at a really good time. Everyone checked the fire sparkle and the things they were carrying. When they're at their happiest and drunk, we'll act. Remember, you have to act in secrecy. Each person burns a tun of grain, don't rush to light the fire if you arrive first, and then agree to light the fire together when the brothers are also in place. Listen to me, and when the time comes, I will learn to sound the wolf horn three times, and you will light the fire together. As long as the fire burned, nothing else was left behind, and they retreated to the north together. There is a hill over there, which is the boundary between Zhaling Lake and Ngoling Lake. We meet again on the mountain. β
"Yes!"
Shi Jingfeng patted each soldier on the shoulder one by one and said, "Be careful, all of them will survive, and no one will be missing!"
A group of people, like ghosts, touched the granary of the Tibetan people.
Located in the hinterland of Tibet, the Tibetan soldiers here are somewhat relaxed and slack. Coupled with the heavy snow falling, highlanders are accustomed to resting and having fun on such nights. Shi Jingfeng and the others easily touched the vicinity of the granary. A careful count shows that there are more than 200 or 300 large felt tents, and each felt tent can store nearly 1,000 stones of grain, which is enough for 200,000 or 300,000 stones!
Not far away, in the large Tubo felt tents connected together, there was a huge commotion. The Tibetans are all playing enthusiastically, roasting sheep and cows, drinking wine and eating meat, and most of the women in their arms are about to be stripped naked, screaming in horror or laughing seductively.
Several Tibetan sentinels were squatting in a corner by the granary to avoid the wind and snow, chatting with each other absent-mindedly and resentfully. Shi Jingfeng was calm like a lone wolf on the plateau, calmly commanding his 200 people to distribute them to various felt tents. After discovering those sentries, Shi Jingfeng was slightly taken aback at first. Then he pulled out two short knives and quietly approached them.
The cold light flashed, and a burst of blood shadows flew. Those Tubo people almost didn't react to what was going on, and they were actually killed by Shi Jingfeng in an instant. Two cut their throats, and one pierced their chests. Shi Jingfeng gently rubbed the short knife on their fur fur, and reborn into the scabbard at his waist. Then, learned a few wolf horns.
The Tibetans for the wolves. It's not new at all. Hearing a few wolf howls on such a snowy night is nothing worth noting at all. So, they continued to have fun, continued to drink wine, eat meat, and play with women.
The sulphur and sentinel stones were piled up in the middle of the grain bales in the center of each felt tent. After hearing the wolf's horn. Every soldier of the Tang Army lit a fire and set it on fire. The fire stabilized a little, and they quickly retreated, rushing towards the north. Shi Jingfeng watched as fires lit up in each granary, and finally retreated. Just as he was about to exit the granary. Suddenly, two dog barks were heard.
He suddenly felt a chill in his heart: "Fan dog!"
Almost as soon as he could react, two large black shadows swooped down on him. A Tang Army soldier who was close to Shi Jingfeng didn't know how powerful this kind of dog was. The chopper went up to the two dogs. Shi Jingfeng was shocked, gritted his teeth and shouted, "Hurry up!"
As soon as the words fell, the Tang Army soldier suddenly let out a miserable scream. It turned out that he had been thrown to the ground by the two black-haired dogs who were as strong as lions.
Shi Jingfeng's heart ached, and he ran away as soon as he gritted his teeth and spread his legs. He has been to Tibet several times, and he knows that this kind of dog is powerful. Even three or five wolves are not at all the match for a dog. Be pounced on by it, unless there is a master to parry. Otherwise it's a death. Fortunately, the two dogs, who may have been with their owners quite far away from here, were attracted by the sound of wolves just now. Otherwise, this time the action is really mysterious!(Note: Actually, the Fan Dog is what we now call the Tibetan Mastiff.) οΌ
The downed Don Jun screamed in despair. Weakly struggling under the mouths of these two dogs. By this time, a fire had already broken out in the granary. The Tibetans rushed out of the felt tent with screams. Billowing black smoke and raging fires flew wildly in the north wind. The Tibetans were almost dumbfounded. The lake froze and it was difficult to get water, so they had to struggle to lift snow to extinguish the fire.
At this time, Shi Jingfeng and the others had already fled far enough. The two dogs didn't chase after them.
There is a hill in front of you, and there are actually a number of felt tents in it. Shi Jingfeng observed for a while and concluded that this was a group of herdsmen by the lake, who were sheltering from the wind and snow here. It just blocked the way I wanted to move forward. There are about a dozen felt tents.
Shi Jingfeng didn't have time to do something for the soldier who died tragically from the dog, and ordered with a gloomy face: "Solve them as quickly as possible." β
"Not a single one!" he snorted, gritting his teeth.
A bloody massacre quietly came. Two hundred Tang troops, like a sudden and silent arrival of death, brandished their swords and killed the Tubo people in these felt tents in a very short time. The soldiers, who were cold and hungry, really wanted to stop and rest in this felt tent for a while. But Shi Jing's order was: to snatch the jerky and alcohol. Over the mountains and march to Golmud!
The soldiers of the Tang Army threw down more than a dozen corpses of their companions and quietly disappeared into the vast snowy night.
Shi Jingfeng and others climbed the steep and steep Purple Mountain Jedi before the heavy snowfall, and cut from the blocked and abandoned tea horse road to the hinterland of Tibet. A heavy snow and severe cold allowed them to easily cross the Ngoring Lake and cross the Yellow River. From this moment on, there was no peace in the rear of the hinterland of the Tibetan people.
Thousands of miles alone to get food from the enemy, killing people without leaving a trace...... The lone hero of the Jianchuan Army continues to challenge the impossible.
A few days later, the Tubo camp on the banks of the Dajinchuan River was in the big house.
The heavy snow still didn't stop, which made Trisong Dezan a little annoyed. But the news he had just heard made him roar with rage.
"Order, kill all the people who guard the granary of Erling Lake!" Trisong Dezan gritted his teeth and said angrily, "Let the army in the Golmud area go all out to hunt down that handful of Tang "Zampu, Zampu!" Shang Jiezan hurriedly stepped forward and admonished, "The defenders of Ngoling Lake, there are as many as 5,000 people, will it be too much to kill them all?" According to the old minister's opinion, it is enough to execute a few generals and officials who should be responsible. The other soldiers, let them make meritorious contributions and go to round up those Tang troops, right?"
Trisong Dezan was still angry, and he exhaled heavily and said, "That's it. I beheaded all the grain officers, and my whole family was not a slave. That handful of Tang troops, I want to see the heads of all of them!"
"Yes......" Shang Jiezan cautiously retreated.
Commenting on Xinuo said a little angrily: "Zampu, the heavy snow has not stopped, and our army cannot attack the city. Now that the grain and grass have been burned down again, the future of our army is worrisome! In addition, Li Huaiguang, Li Sheng, Chu Yan, and others have actually sent troops together to attack our Longyou land, and the attack is extremely fierce. Most of the soldiers and horses in the area of Longyou and Tugu Chuyan were transferred to Xichuan by Zampu, and the defense was weak. If the Tang army took the opportunity to capture Huizhou, Yuanzhou and Weizhou. We're not going to gain more than we lose. β
Tri Song Dezan snorted and said, "Li Sheng and the others will come to take advantage of the fire to rob, but I expected it. Our cities are not so easy to conquer. Their purpose was just to send reinforcements to Xiao Yunhe to besiege the city, so they didn't have to be afraid. I don't believe that a few ants can nibble over a male lion. From Qinghai and Dafeichuan to Weishui and Taoshui, we have more than 10 military towns, and there are still nearly 100,000 horses. Is it possible for Li Sheng and the others to swallow them all? I'm not too worried over there. What I hate is that the handful of Tang troops who came out of nowhere actually harassed them to Ngoling Lake. If they touch Golmud, our herdsmen and granaries and livestock farms in the Kunlun Mountains will suffer. I didn't expect that Xiao Yunhe, who seemed to be a righteous man, would actually use such insidious and shameless and obscene tricks!
The news of a full-scale war on the Western Front quickly spread to Xichuan and reached the ears of Xiao Yunhe and others who were on the front line.
This is indeed a good news that is encouraging to rejoice! The Tang soldiers guarding the city clapped their hands and celebrated as if they were celebrating a festival.
On this day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, the heavy snow stopped. The Tang Army, which has never relaxed its vigilance, has strengthened its guard even more on this most important festival in China, and there is no joy and relaxation at all. Because Xiao Yunhe knew that the Tubo people were very likely to take advantage of this time to sneak attack.
The heavy snow in the past few days has paved the verdant mountains and Canglong Mountains on both sides of Victoria with a thick layer of silver makeup. Heavy snow closed the mountain, and there were almost no people. But in such a Jedi-like place, Tang Hanchen and Xu Zhan each led 3,000 men and horses to garrison the dangerous area from the beginning of the war. Even during heavy snowfall, no one went down the mountain. The Tibetans once sent several teams to find the path on the two mountains, and all of them were dead on the mountains. Trisong Dezan had no choice but to give up the plan to find a way to break through from the mountains on both sides. In the thirtieth year of the Chinese New Year's Eve, Xiao Yunhe sent Gao Gu and Song Liangchen to each lead people up the mountain, replaced the men and horses of the second general, and continued to defend tightly.
The defense of the entire Victorian City area can be said to be airtight. It made Trisong Dezan feel a little helpless. He had thought of digging a tunnel from a few miles away to lead to the city, but Xiao Yunhe had already settled down under the Xuanmen Gate. Hearing a noise from afar, he quickly sent someone to dig a deep ditch in front of the Xuanmen Pass. The Tubo people dug up here and exposed all of them, wasting huge manpower and material resources in vain. Trisong Dezan wanted to build an earthen city arrow tower in front of the Xuanmen Pass to eliminate the height advantage of the Tang army. Unexpectedly, the gate was closed, and a catapult was erected, and a burst of rocks fell from the sky, not to mention building an earthen city, even if you want to save your life.
Now it seems that the Tibetans do not seem to have much way to take Victoria except for a strong attack. Tri Song Dezan was a little depressed. Meanwhile. Because the latest batch of grain and grass was burned in Ngoring Lake. If you want to collect more grain and grass and transport it over, whether it is from the city of Raksha or Golmud, it will take at least two or three months. And the grain and grass they have at hand now can only last for more than a month at most.
The original mentality of being comfortable and complacent is gradually gone. Trisong Detsen's heart was a little anxious. Seeing that the snow melted very slowly, there was less and less grain and grass in the warehouse. He had to pin his hopes on the front on the side of the East Women's Country. He had long heard that the Dongnu Kingdom moved to the strong wall and cleared the wilderness, and converged with the Tang army to retreat to Yazhou with all their might. The terrain of Java is more complex than that of Victoria, with mountains and rivers all over the world. He had ordered the generals over there to be cautious. Wait until the heavy snow has passed, and then attack Yazhou. But now, he really has no patience. An expedited military order was handed to the Tubo general who commanded the troops in the area of Dongnu Kingdom, Shang Xi Dongzan and Shang Zanmo. urged them to march quickly, take advantage of the slack of the Tang army during the Chinese New Year, and capture Yazhou in one fell swoop. Open a breakthrough!
At this time, Xiao Yunhe's heart may not be as quiet as Zhishui. Tri Song Detsen could think of storming Yazhou to seek a breakthrough, and he was also worried about that place. Although Yazhou now. There are as many as 50,000 or 60,000 soldiers and horses, even more than Victoria. But there is no such danger as the Xuanmen Pass in Yazhou. The northernmost boundary directly facing the threat of the barbarian coalition is Lushan County. The terrain of Lushan County is the most complex. The north of the county is mostly a mountain with mountains and obstacles, and there are many paths, which is very difficult to defend. Although Wu Yuanheng explained to him once that he had to believe in the ability of Moyi and others, Xiao Yunhe was in his heart. Still a little nervous. After all, the soldiers of the Dongnu Country are all barbarian natives, with poor equipment and training, and their combat effectiveness is not good. Most of the Jianchuan troops stationed there were also new recruits, and Ma Xun's troops were strong in combat. It is the workhorse. But he may be very unconvinced by Moyi...... In his heart, he always sweated for Yazhou. I can't go to that place to supervise the battle in person. But now here in Victoria, the battle situation is unclear, Chi Song Dezandi's motives are unpredictable, and he does not dare to leave without permission, so he is a little depressed.
Facts have proved that Xiao Yunhe's worries are not unreasonable. At this time, Moyi was also troubled.
Late at night, in a bungalow in Lushan County, Yazhou.
Moyi took off the mask and helmet that had been worn on his face all day, sat down heavily on the edge of the couch, and sighed. Wu Qiyun stepped forward and handed him a cup of hot tea, and said softly, "Are you tired?"
"I'm used to training day after day, but I'm not tired. It's just that...... There are some things that make me panic. Mo Yi took a sip of hot tea, and said lightly, "Ma Xun has always been unconvinced. Today, in the military tent, a group of generals of the Tang Army united with me to ask for battle. Ask for the initiative. I tried to persuade them for a long time, and finally I had to move out of the Han king, and I reluctantly suppressed them. Actually, I know it in my heart. Although the army of our Dongnu country is large in number, its combat effectiveness is low. If you want to hold Yazhou, you still have to rely on Ma Xun's group. But those men just look down on me as a woman, and they are not convinced. β
"Forget it, don't take it to heart. Men, it's always like this. Especially the men of Daqi, they are different from the Dongnu country. They're used to being in charge. Wu Qiyun persuaded, "The most important thing now is to stabilize the overall situation." We must defend instead of attacking, and first protect Yazhou without losing it. A hasty attack will only hit the enemy. The Tibetan soldiers and horses came from the city of Luo, thousands of miles away, and it was difficult to supply. If we wish we had fought a decisive battle with them as soon as possible, how could we fulfill their wishes? When they come over in a restless manner, we will deal with them again with ease and work, and we will be able to get twice the result with half the effort. β
Mo Yi sighed softly: "If those men had the knowledge of a girl, it wouldn't be so difficult." They are all meritorious and earnest. In other words, I have a rebellious mentality towards me, a female general. Anyway, if I want to insist on something, they will oppose it. Otherwise, it will not reflect their masculinity and insight. It's infuriating!"
"Forget it, dissipate the gas. Wu Qiyun chuckled and persuaded her, "Didn't you say that you are willing to pay anything for him? Even if you die, you don't care, so why care about being a little resentful? Time will prove it." When you lead your army to a few beautiful victories, they will naturally obey you. β
"Hmm......" Mo Yi finally smiled and said, "Although the pressure is huge, I still feel very meaningful." In fact, for many years, our Dongnu Kingdom has long wanted to resist. And I've always fantasized about one day. I can lead my people to fight against the Tibetans. Now that the opportunity has come, I am more excited and excited in my heart. Don't talk about it, go to bed early, there are important military things to deal with tomorrow!"
As soon as she finished speaking, the window on one side suddenly opened without wind. Moyi was startled and looked over this way. A black shadow floated in like catkins. Wu Qiyun was already so frightened that he screamed: "What person?!"
The person who came flashed in front of the second daughter like a ghost, and a long sword in his hand had already penetrated Wu Qiyun's throat - "Don't make a sound." Or I'll kill you!"
"Big brother!" Mo Yi exclaimed, "Why are you here?!You put down your sword quickly, Sister Yun'er is my best friend!"
The person who came was actually the guardian of the Zhongnan Ancient Road - Dugu Fan!
Dugu Fan, who was still wearing that bronze mask, had a burst of cold air like a dead man on Chu Yan's body. Then. He slowly put down the sword, glanced at Wu Qiyun fixedly, then looked at Mo Yi, and said abruptly, "You married him?"
Wu Qiyun retreated to Moyi's side in fright, touching the throat with a cold feeling. Shocked. Mo Yi stretched out an arm to hold her, bit her lip and nodded: "Yes." β
This time, Dugu Fan was obviously much calmer than before. He paced a few steps. He sat down on a chair and said, "I just arrived in Yazhou today." β
Mo Yi said suspiciously, "What are you doing here?"
"Moyi ......" This is almost the first time that Dugu Fan has spoken in such a soft tone, "Are you still blaming me?"
"No...... I've never blamed you. Mo Yi shook his head slightly, "I understand your distress. Over the years, for the sake of the Dugu family, you have endured a lot of hardship. You value your mission more than your life. The appearance of King Han makes you extremely panicked. You instinctively believe that he will be your worst enemy. That's why this is what happened. In fact...... If it weren't for you. It wasn't so easy for me to get along with King Han. Speaking of which, your sword is really a matchmaker's sword. As for those things, you may really be misunderstood, or rather, you are too paranoid. If you want. I can explain it to you slowly. β
"That's it. Dugu Fan said with almost no emotional fluctuations, "Those things." Don't mention it yet. This time I came to Xichuan for one thing. β
"What's the matter?"
"Keep you from dying!" Dugu Fan said in his cold voice, "I probably know most of the things that happened here. Anyway, you are the head of my Dugu family's generation. You can't die until many big things are done. So, from now on, I will always be by your side and be strictly protected. Whoever dares to hurt you - all will die!"
When Wu Qiyun heard these words, he probably understood in his heart, this is the strange man who pierced King Han and Princess Dugu with a sword!
She instinctively felt that this was a dangerous fellow, and that he seemed to have a special aversion to women!
But this strange man stayed with Princess Dugu that night and refused to leave. He sat in the doorway with a sword in his hand. Sitting cross-legged, with a thick collar of fur wrapped around his body. From a distance, it looks like a ragged beggar. But the bronze mask with a cold glow told everyone that this beggar was probably not so easy to mess with. The warriors of the Eastern Female Kingdom who were guarding here were also driven far away by him and went to the outer courtyard to patrol and stand guard. Moyi wants to arrange a room for him to live in, and he doesn't want to live or die. It is said that over the years, there has never been a habit of housing and sleeping on a couch. Although it is winter now, it is still far from the cold air in the Zhongnan Ancient Road.
The next day, Moyi couldn't get rid of it in any way, so he had to take Dugu Fan into the barracks with him. Naturally, it caused quite a stir. Today, there was an important military discussion, and after beating the drum, Ma Xun and a group of other generals quickly arrived in the tent of the army. Everyone was a little surprised when they saw the bronze masked man standing behind him with a sword, and they were all a little surprised: a grimace woman, looking for a man in a bronze mask to stand beside him...... In this barracks, when did it become like a stage?
"According to the spies. The southern army of Tubo and Nanzhao had already crossed the border of the Dongnu Kingdom and was heading towards Lushan County. Mo Yi met the strange eyes of Ma Xun and the others, and Zhengse said, "Now, please ask the generals to discuss the strategy of retreating from the enemy." β
"Princess. Ma Xun bowed with his fists and said with some contempt, "The last general will ask Ying to lead the men and horses of the headquarters to snipe the enemy." If you don't work for the princess, the last general will definitely beat the enemy army to pieces, and the ink clothes look through the eye hole of the mask, looking at this proud man, and his heart is depressed. She said: "General Ma, please Ying, please also explain the tactics." If it's appropriate, you can only agree. β
Ma Xun raised the corners of his mouth and showed a sneer: "The main army is attacking it, and the decisive battle is on the battlefield, that's all." The combined forces of Tubo and Nanzhao looked like they were separated from each other, and they were scattered. Where is the opponent of the elite army of our Xingyuan Mansion? The last general plans to go north out of Luguan and fight the enemy to the death in the plains at the foot of Zhanglu Mountain. They are so bright that they throw away their armor to boost the prestige of our great Qi country!"
"Yes, boost my country's prestige!" many generals roared along with them, and they all followed suit.
Mo Yi slowly stood up, glanced at everyone, and said, "Regular soldiers, kill 1,000 enemies, and lose 800 yourself." Even if it wins, it is extremely uneconomical. We obviously have a favorable position, so why don't we take advantage of it? I don't think it is appropriate for General Ma to say that the main army will fight a decisive battle. So, I can't agree to your request. This time, I personally led the army of the Eastern Women's Kingdom to meet the enemy in the area of Luguan. β
"You ......" Ma Xun's face turned red instantly. This man in his thirties was very impatient, and shouted loudly, "Although you are the princess, you have never led a leader to fight; At stake in the life and death of tens of thousands of people and the survival of Xichuan, the last general will write a letter to the king of Han and ask him to decide: who should lead the army to fight this battle!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a black shadow suddenly flashed in front of him, and a long sword that was cold to his throat rested on his throat.
Dugu Fan's warm voice sounded: "Be quiet, be obedient." If you dare to be presumptuous to my sister-in-law, don't blame me for cutting off your head!"
