Chapter 159: Avoid Hengshui and take a detour
If the enemy army takes advantage of this ambush at this time and takes down the vanguard troops, the blow to the entire Leng family army will be fatal, and if it is a detour to Hengshui, it will take two more days.
Without thinking about it, Liu Qingge proposed: "Why don't we take a detour, why do we have to cross Hengshui, this Hengshui is already dangerous at this time, even if we find a boat that can cross Hengshui at one time, if the enemy attacks the ship, then we will have a great risk." ”
Leng Wushuang said: "That's true, I'm even more afraid that if Song Jingying and Bei Mo join forces and attack inside and outside, then we have no way out." ”
Liu Qingge nodded: "I walked out of the secret passage in the East Palace before, and the way there is to the outskirts of Shangjing, which is only a few steps away from Yeluqi's hiding place in the suburbs. ”
Leng Wushuang hadn't heard Liu Qingge say this, at this time Liu Qingge said it, combined with the situation in the Northern Desert at this time, Leng Wushuang felt that it was not impossible, after more than a year of recuperation, the biggest development of the Northern Desert was still in agriculture.
Moreover, Beimo joined the battle situation in Zhongzhou this time, and the entire battlefield is in Zhongzhou, which will not have any impact on their autumn harvest next year.
It's just because Liu Qingge once persuaded everyone to make friends with Beimo, and now that Beimo has broken the contract, many people in Zhongzhou not only have opinions about Beimo, but also have a lot of complaints against Qingge, but because Liu Qingge has accepted too many refugees, no one can shake Liu Qingge's prestige now.
"If it's really as you said, we can't cross this Hengshui, although it will increase the journey by two days, but these two days are still worth it compared to the big risk ahead." Leng Wushuang weighed it again and again.
"It's just that we made a two-day detour, whether Song Jingshu's troops can hold on to these two days, he now has to deal not only with Song Jingying but also with pressure from the Northern Desert."
"What does it matter to us whether he can hold on or not? If he can't hold on, it would be good, so that the entire imperial city would fall, wouldn't it be better for us to go to the side of the Qing monarch again, and by the way, clean up the Northern Desert and let them put away those crooked thoughts. ”
Liu Qingge said helplessly: "Bei Mo broke the contract like this, how can the people of Zhongzhou let us stay in Bei Desert to live, now most of the buildings in Bei Mo are built by people in Zhongzhou, this large-scale invasion of Bei Desert, although it is not dominated by Tuoba Hong and Tuoba Yuanyu." But it also has a direct impact on the relationship between our two countries. ”
"At present, where is there a relationship between the two countries, and the entire power of the Northern Desert is complicated, although Tuoba Hong is the lord of the Northern Desert, there are still multiple tribes below, as long as the five tribes are united, there is no need for Tuoba Hong to send troops, it is also a huge force."
"You're right, I thought that Beimo would join the war soon, but I didn't expect it to drag on for so long, just to give all the refugees a chance to breathe."
Leng Wushuang said with a complicated expression: "Although the number of people in the two places is no longer equal, gradually Song Jingying has lost the hearts of the people, and many people have joined Song Jingshu's camp in order to denounce the Northern Desert. ”
"Wushuang is not talking about us, now that the Northern Desert is invading, we must completely exterminate the forces of the Northern Desert."
Leng Wushuang heard Liu Qingge say this, and was silent for a moment, although he has always grown up in Zhongzhou, he is indeed a person from the Northern Desert, he has been guarding the border for many years, and he is used to seeing life and death, but in fact, real civilians are eager for peace, not constant war.
Now only by completely exterminating the forces that want to invade Zhongzhou in the Northern Desert can the entire Northern Desert be stable, but obviously Tuoba Yuanyu does not have this courage, if he has this courage, he will not be involved in the war situation in Zhongzhou because of the opposition of the tribal leader, this move has destroyed all the peace that the Northern Desert has just obtained.
Looking at Leng Wushuang, whose eyes were extremely resolute, Liu Qingge naturally knew that Leng Wushuang had made a decision in her heart, and she asked: "Wushuang, in the current situation, don't you still have the intention of competing for a position in the Northern Desert?" ”
Leng Wushuang looked at the Xinghuo not far away, and sighed: "I really didn't have it before, I thought that Tuoba Yuanyu would be a Ming Jun, but now I find that I was wrong, with Tuoba Yuanyu's not ruthless enough, I can't suppress those leaders on the grassland." ”
"The forces of the Northern Desert are mainly concentrated in the hands of the tribal commanders, and all the forces on the grassland are added together and twisted into a rope, which is far greater than the imperial power. In the past, all the tribes were only the leaders of the royal family because they had a common enemy. ”
"But now this enemy no longer exists, all of them in the Northern Desert can work harder and choose to work, all the people in the Northern Desert will not go hungry, some people yearn for peace, and some people just want to get another benefit in the war. At present, the forces that still want to take the opportunity to invade Zhongzhou have become dominant. ”
Although Leng Wushuang was reluctant to admit it, it had become an established fact that Beimo tore up the alliance and invaded Zhongzhou, and peace was the wish of ordinary bosses, never the wish of that group of careerists.
In fact, Liu Qingge said that the Northern Desert would tear up the covenant, Leng Wushuang didn't think about it, but he didn't want to think about it, he could erase all the traces of the Northern Desert people on his body, but the bloodline couldn't be changed.
He will still feel ashamed of the Northern Desert for tearing up the covenant, and he will also be disappointed in his father Tuoba Hong.
Because he knew better than anyone that Tuoba Hong had the ability to deter the leaders of all the steppe tribes back then, he still had these methods, but obviously Tuoba Hong didn't want to use them.
Liu Qingge didn't slander Tuoba Hong and Tuoba Yuanyu in front of him, and he had already given him enough face.
"Ge'er, I think I will choose to conquer the Northern Desert, not only because of the anger of the Northern Desert tearing up the alliance this time, but also for the long-term stability of the two countries in the future, some wars are temporary, but some wars can be a lifetime, if I don't make a move, the hatred between Zhongzhou and the Northern Desert is bound to continue from generation to generation."
Leng Wushuang thought very clearly, if he didn't make a move, then the threat of the entire Northern Desert to Zhongzhou would be huge, and if he could use this matter as a medium to control the imperial court of the entire Northern Desert, he would inevitably help Liu Qingge.
"Sometimes the struggle for power and profit is a last resort, we are all fighting for each other's ideals, this sentence may be hypocritical to say, but I have been guarding the border for many years, and what I always look forward to most in my heart is the peace between the two countries."
"Sometimes the killing is just to stop the bigger killing, and we're all in the middle of the game, and we all want to be the game-breakers, but in reality, we're often just pawns." Liu Qingge said with emotion.
Make a chess piece, make a useful chess piece.
If you want to be a chess player, you have to get into the game first.
The entire Leng family army avoided the ambush of Song Jingshu and the Northern Desert because of a detour, and at the same time, Song Jingshu fell into a bitter battle.
