Chapter 82: A Thousand Waves (II)
Melaleuca (Lower)
The cold wind swept wildly, hanging on people's faces like knives brushing their skin.
Outside the big tent, many strong men smiled, the skin on their faces was a little chapped, and even the old skin was falling.
They wore fur-sewn hats, and a smile appeared on their frozen faces, and at this time no one except the big tent hurriedly rubbed their hands together, and suddenly saw someone walking towards the big tent, so they put away the small movement of rubbing their hands, put their hands on the handle of the knife, and guarded the big tent like a sculpture.
It was a young man who had come over, and he had shown his sturdy and frozen red arms in this weather, and he was wearing a leather coat, and his eyes were as sharp and vicious as those of a little wolf cub in the northern ice field.
When he saw the guard who was carefully guarding outside the big tent, he suddenly grinned, stretched out his hand and patted the guard on the shoulder, and the guard was almost not slapped by him and fell into the snow.
"My brother is here to protect me, and I am relieved. ”
He lifted the heavy curtain of the tent, and a warm wind rushed from the tent to the guards guarding the door, and then disappeared immediately, and the cold wind fell on their faces again.
All that accompanied them was the cold wind and the snow white that almost infected the heavens and the earth.
"Brother, what's the matter!"
The shirtless young man in a leather coat got into the big tent, looked at Su Qing, who was wrapped tightly, and said.
Su Qing wore a hat sewn with fur on his head and a coat sewn with fine fur on his body, and sat by the fire, the fire in the stove was blazing, and the smell of milk wine came from the stove.
"Look at this, Su Qing handed over the letter. ”
Mo Han took the letter, glanced at it cursoryly, and then returned it to his brother with some embarrassment.
"You know the most about their writing on our grassland, just tell me. Mo Han bared his teeth and looked at his brother with some embarrassment.
Su Qing glanced at his younger brother who was scratching his ears and cheeks, then read the letter again, and then looked at his younger brother.
Mo Han knew Chai Xintong, although the two did not have much intersection, but the young master who was the snow wolf rider of the northern king cavalry and Chai Xintong who was the Confucius Temple naturally met, and some unpleasant things almost happened.
"What the fuck do you mean?" Mohan frowned.
"This is the second letter, the first one is for us to release the news that we have a Raush Zi Nine Dragon Talisman on our Manxue Mountain, and now this is even more exaggerated, let's start fighting? ”
A thoughtful look appeared on Mo Han's immature face, and then he grabbed the letter and prepared to throw it into the furnace.
Seeing this, Su Qing hurriedly stopped his younger brother, and said in his brother's puzzlement: "Do as he says, invade Tongzhou!"
"Why? It's no longer normal for us to bring troops around here. Now that we have entered winter, although we are more hardy than the cubs of the Holy Dynasty, we are really not suitable for combat, and the gains outweigh the losses!
Besides, we have never been able to defeat their counties, and we will not defend them, so there is no point in doing so!"
Mo Han suddenly stood up and looked at his brother with an angry look on his face.
Since he was a child, he rarely gets angry with his brother, since his parents left with the surname Xu, his brother has been protecting him, even if the holy pilgrimage wants a proton, his brother does not hesitate to come forward and replace himself.
In terms of personal feelings, he never doubted his brother.
But now, he is worried that his brother will be bewitched, so that the blood of his Shuo and the good sons of the ministry will flow out in vain.
In winter, except for the snow wolf rider, which can gallop freely in the snow, the other soldiers have no advantage at all in this weather condition. Even risking this weather to attack Tongzhou, the other party waited for work, although they were brave and good at fighting, but they would not have much chance of winning at all.
If it's just a garrison to scare the Holy Dynasty or Tongzhou, it's okay, but now it's going to attack Tongzhou, it's okay to say in the summer and autumn, and now they're attacking, it's tantamount to flies flying on the - looking for death. (homophonic stalk)
Su Qing looked up at his younger brother with an angry face, grabbed his coat, and pulled him to sit down.
Even if it is not big, Mo Han will only be angry with his brother, looking at his brother's confident appearance, and the pitiful expression on his face, Mo Han still sat down.
"Listen to me, this is good for us, and from any point of view, we must do it. ”
Mohan, the new leader of the snow wolf ride, stared at the stove like a child, looking carelessly, and occasionally looking through the big tent at the snow drifting outside.
"Do you know who Abba and Grandma walked with?"
"The surname is Xu, and he also has a name called Tuoba Ningqing. Hearing this, Mohan glanced at his brother and said quickly.
"This matter, because of his son, whether it is the Nine Dragon Fu or the attack on Tongzhou, is to force the Holy Dynasty to hand over his son. ”
Mo Han had a thousand doubts in his heart, but he and their soldiers from the northern grasslands had always been straightforward men who had something to say.
"I know that he and you are also brothers in life and death, but ......"
Su Qing glanced at his younger brother, Mo Han immediately shut up, and quietly listened to Su Qing tell Xu Changan about being in prison recently.
"Fortunately, it's not the people of the Pantar Heavenly God, otherwise the Pantar Heavenly God will be stupidly killed by him, just don't admit these things. After hearing this, Mohan couldn't help but complain.
Su Qing didn't comment, and then said: "Chai Xintong, you know, he wants to forcibly rescue Xu Changan, so let's say that there are nine dragon talismans in Manxue Mountain, so as to attract the attention of others, and now we send troops to attack Tongzhou, put pressure on the Holy Dynasty, and use the excuse of our fathers to force the Holy Dynasty to hand over Xu Changan." ”
When Mo Han heard this, he first nodded, and then "spitted" on the ground and said, "Brother, this surnamed Chai wants to harm us." The old general Xu Zhenwu has been guarding for so many years,
We have winners and losers for each other. In autumn and summer, it is not always possible to win, let alone now. "Their Shuohe Department has always respected brave and good fighters, so even internally, they will respect Xu Zhenwu as an old general.
Su Qing poured a bowl of milk wine, put it on the low table in front of him, and said softly: "Take a sip of milk wine first, don't be so angry, wait for me to finish." ”
Mo Han, who felt that his brother had become stupid today, was so angry that he stood up several times.
"General Xu Zhenwu has never dared to expose his relationship with Tuoba Ningqing because of the complicated government affairs of the Holy Dynasty. Now Tuoba Ningqing's son is in trouble, and he can't sit still. ”
When Mo Han heard this, his eyes showed a gleam, and he thought of a great good thing.
"You mean, Old General Xu Zhenwu would be deliberate?"
He didn't finish his sentence, after all, it was something he couldn't even think of.
"Yes, General Xu Zhenwu's subordinates will not resist, but there is one condition. A look of worry appeared on Su Qing's face, even he didn't know anything about this matter. Seeing his brother's eager expression, he finally spoke: "Don't plunder the people, he can give us a part of the military rations to make up for the losses of our march." ”
Su Qing was a little worried, after all, the "wolf cubs" of their grassland sometimes didn't even listen to their words.
On the contrary, it was his younger brother, hearing this, rubbing his hands, the expression on his face was diametrically opposite to just now, and he said with a happy face: "This can be done, a good thing." But we'll have to let them help us keep the bunnies at bay from the Wind Division. ”
Su Qing didn't speak, at this time, there was a sudden military situation outside, Su Qing unfolded the military information, and handed it to his younger brother with an expressionless face.
When Mo Han saw the military situation, he glanced at his brother in surprise.
"Okay, right?"
Mo Han nodded heavily.
"Don't worry, as long as we snow wolves don't ride in chaos, if the others mess around, I will give his head to the Pantar god as a gift. Mohan said, standing up, clenching his fist to his chest, and swearing with their steppe etiquette.
"Okay, you go and get busy, by the way, let the guards at the door withdraw, it's not easy on a cold day. If you talk about fighting alone, your brother is a disciple of the Sword Saint. ”
Mo Han smiled and nodded, and was about to turn around and leave, when his brother's voice suddenly came from behind him.
"My surname is Tuoba, not Sue!"
Mo Han paused, his face was a little hot, and he thought of the suspicion and dissatisfaction he had with his brother just now.
......
There was a note on the low table, which was the military information that the two brothers had just seen.
"Xu Zhenwu's military department raided the Shuofeng Department, and the general of the Shuofeng Department, Yelu Qifeng, died in battle!"
......
When the people of the Holy Dynasty were heading towards the snow-capped mountains, a message came to the court.
This news was like a dragon in the sea, causing a tsunami in the court.
