Chapter 149: Who Will Sacrifice
"Glory?"
Brother Ali snorted lightly, with a little disdain: "Even if you die, do you have to maintain the glory?"
Feeling humiliated, he shouted, "Then are you going to abandon your men and run away?" When the rest of the soldiers heard this, they looked at the two of them in shock for a while, with a little fear in their eyebrows, and naturally muttered in their hearts, but they were a little worried
Ali Buge noticed the change in the soldiers and reprimanded, "When did I say that I would abandon my subordinates?" When the real soldier said this kind of thing before, thinking of Brother Ali here, his eyes couldn't hide the killing intent.
"Hmm!"
Pulling out his body and condensing, he obviously noticed the pair of cold black eyes of Ali Buge.
Although he was frightened, he still bred himself and shouted, "In that case, then why did you say that you want to retreat?" He didn't dare to continue dwelling on the aspect of abandoning his subordinates, but only focused on the so-called word retreat.
After all, it is too serious to abandon his subordinates, and if he persists, he is afraid that he will be directly targeted by Ali Buge!
Ali Buge's brows furrowed slightly, pointed to the flying snow floating in the sky, and said: "Don't you see? It's snowing now! With such a harsh environment, it is impossible to transport grain from the desert north. The food is gone, how do you make us hold on?"
"But...... I ......"
Ba Xuan opened his mouth, trying to defend himself.
But he thought about it for a long time, and he didn't know how to answer, so he lowered his head and said, "Even so, you can't just run away like this!
"You can only talk. If you really encounter something, isn't it blind?"
Brother Ali snorted lightly, and was about to scold, but he saw a group of people coming in the distance, and the current one was Kuo Lijian.
However, because he heard that Ba Yu had been reprimanded, he was worried, so he gathered a group of soldiers and came together to question Ali Buge.
Ba Xuan's face was happy, and he only felt as if he had met a savior, and hurriedly shouted: "Uncle, come and save me." ”
Seeing that Ba Xuan was a little decadent, both in terms of complexion and expression, he was safe and sound, Kuo Liejian breathed a sigh of relief, and looked at Brother Ali Bu again, obviously trying to dissuade him.
Ali Buge's eyes flashed with displeasure, and he asked in a low voice, "Uncle, why are you here?"
Although Korejian is a little inferior in strength, he is the son of Genghis Khan, and he has a great reputation in the entire army, even if he is a khan, he has to pay three points.
"Alas. I didn't hear you arguing yet, so I'm going to come and have a look. Kuo Liejian smiled, seeing the pitiful appearance of Ba Xuan next to him, he felt a little distressed, and persuaded again: "As for the covenant, I think he is just an unintentional move, after all, he is also worried about the soldiers in the army!"
"But he made insulting remarks, and even provoked me? Pointing to the soldiers next to him, Ali Buge directly shouted.
You must know that because of what he said before, his status in the hearts of the soldiers has really dropped a lot, and I don't know what has become of him in the hearts of the soldiers at this moment.
Kuo Liejian's old face turned red, and he couldn't help but smile bitterly, feeling a little ashamed.
But Ba Xuan didn't care, only thought that he had the support of Kuo Liejian, and shouted again: "But what have you done since you became Khan? In the face of the attacks of the Red Phoenix Army, you have repeatedly abandoned the city and abandoned your weapons, what explanation should you have?"
When he said this, he immediately stabbed Ali Buge's pain point.
In Mongolia, it is very different from the Central Plains Rites and Religions, and the most respectful is the strong.
Therefore, whether it is Genghis Khan or Ogedei, they all rely on the battlefield and the city to become the Great Khan of Mongolia.
That Meng Ge was killed in Xiangyang, so everyone didn't pursue it much.
But Ali Buge knew that because of his many bad deeds since he inherited the throne, his prestige in the army had dropped to zero, and if he completely defeated the Red Phoenix Army in this battle, he was afraid that his throne would be completely finished.
I saw that Ali Buge's face was gloomy, and his eyes were all full of murderous intent, and the two others also focused their eyes on themselves.
At this moment, Brother Ali knew that he couldn't refuse, so he had to open his mouth and explain them one by one: "Indeed, since the Northern Expedition of the Red Phoenix Army, I have been defeated several times, and even now I am forced to retreat. But you have also seen that the Red Phoenix Army is different from the past, no matter how hard I try, there are only more than 100,000 soldiers under my command. The distance between the two is so great that it cannot be offset by other methods. ”
"Indeed, the other side has so many troops that even the logistics are beyond our control. Kuo Lejian looked sad.
Their Mongol clan is full of people, at best, a population of about a million people, even if you add the rest of the tribes that have been gathered, at best there are four or five million people.
With such a small number of people, it is already remarkable that he can maintain an army of 100,000.
You must know that after 20 years, the Red Phoenix Army has only managed to bring the population under its rule to nearly 10 million, and the army has only expanded to more than 200,000 people.
"Well, it's still too far away, or we might be able to help. The former squad leader sighed and said helplessly.
Tang Yuanxi also complained directly: "No way." After all, the elder brother also has to conquer the surrounding countries, and there is really no extra troops to help. ”
When Brother Ali Buge heard this, although he was annoyed in his heart, he had to pretend to be grateful on his face, and said, "It's enough for the two of you to have this kind of thought. After all, although this Red Phoenix Army is a little powerful, it still has weaknesses after all, and it is not completely invincible. ”
He naturally knew that the purpose of these two people was just to see the situation in Mongolia itself.
After all, after so many years, although Nabatu has long since extinguished his ambition to compete for the throne, he has also had the intention of becoming self-reliant since he cultivated his power for many years.
If Ali Buge is completely defeated in this war, I am afraid that Nabatu will swallow the desert into his mouth under the banner of restoring the Mongol Empire.
After a hundred years, the Mongol Empire founded by Genghis Khan has also collapsed, and it is no longer possible to maintain its former appearance.
Standing aside, Nahedan was a little jealous.
Whether it is Ali Buge and Ba Xuan, or Xi Ban and Tang Yuanxi, they all have their own forces, and they also have a status in the entire army, but they seem to have a glorious identity, but they can't do anything.
"That said. But now that the crisis is imminent, I don't know how the Khan intends to resolve it?" Hedan asked.
Ali Buge fell silent, he looked at the soldiers in the distance, but he was a little hesitant.
Although it is snowing heavily at the moment, it is the most suitable time to retreat, but the Chifeng army is not a kind-hearted person, and will definitely take advantage of this time to send an elite army to strangle them, even if they can escape back to Mobei safely, they are afraid that they will lose a lot of troops.
The rest of the generals were also silent, their eyes full of anticipation and worry, expecting to finally be able to leave this nightmarish place, but worrying was that they were afraid that they would become the one behind the palace.
"I heard that the Khan said before, are you planning to retreat?" Seeing the solemn atmosphere, Kuo Liejian opened his mouth to complain.
Brother Ali didn't dare to hide it, and immediately replied: "That's right." After all, as far as the current situation is concerned, even if Genghis Khan reappears, I am afraid that he may not be able to defeat the other party. In that case, we have no choice but to retreat in order to preserve our troops!"
"Oh, so you sent Boyan to attack Anding City, is that also for this purpose?" Kuo Lijian thought for a moment and asked again.
Ali Buge replied: "Naturally. After all, we are facing off with the main force of the Red Phoenix Army, and if there is a slight change, the other party will immediately find out. Therefore, we want to open another front, first, to reduce the pressure of the main force, and secondly, to distract the attention of the Red Phoenix Army and buy enough time for our escape. ”
"Well, your method does work. It's just a pity!"
After listening to Ali Buge's complete plan, Kuo Liejian showed a little pity.
It is conceivable that as soon as the main force of the Chifeng Army arrives, Na Boyan will definitely not be able to withstand Xiao Feng's pressure, and may be sacrificed directly.
Brother Ali Buge was a little gloomy, and said: "I have also discussed this matter with Boyan. It's just that he is resolute in his mind and willing to give his life for us. In desperation, I had no choice but to agree to him. However, to ensure his life, I also gave him the Aegis and the Olympic Sword. With these two weapons, even if you can't defeat Xiao Feng, you should be able to save your life. ”
For Boyan, Ali Buge relies on him a lot, which is why he gives him so much power.
After hearing this, Kuo Liejian's expression darkened, but there was still doubt between his eyebrows, and he asked again: "What about Anding City?
Brother Ali was stunned for a moment, shook his head and replied, "I'm sorry, not yet!"
"Didn't you?"
"That's right, we have already attacked the city, but unexpectedly, the sword Shura Xiao Yue suddenly appeared, disrupting this point and making us completely defeated. ”
Brother Ali Buge was annoyed, if the Anding City fell into their hands, they could completely cut off the connection between Qingyang Mansion and the Red Phoenix Army, and then they would only need to operate to bring Qingyang Mansion back under their command.
But all of this was ruined by Xiao Yue!
Kuo Liejian pondered for a moment and said, "It seems that the Red Phoenix Army should have also noticed it, so did you send Xiao Yue? In that case, what countermeasures do you have? After all, if Bo Yan didn't open up the situation, we wouldn't be able to escape from here smoothly." ”
"I originally planned to send someone to help Boyan eradicate Xiao Yue in one fell swoop. But in the current situation, I'm afraid it's impossible. Ali Buge glanced at Ba Xuan and said in a mocking tone.
If it weren't for this big mouth, how would his plans have been revealed, and who would have been willing to carry out this mortal mission?
Brother Ali Buge looked at Xiban and Tang Yuanxi, but it was a pity that these two people raised their heads one after another, pretending not to know anything, they had also heard of the name of the Sword Shura, so it was naturally impossible to provoke such a bad star for no reason.
Kuo Liejian lowered his head and thought for a moment, then raised his head, but said, "Since this is the case, then it is better to let me go!"
"Uncle, are you going?" Batu was stunned for a moment, feeling incredulous.
Kuo Liejian said with a smile: "That Xiao Yue is very powerful, and it is not ordinary people who can subdue it. Although I am a cultivator, if I can cooperate with Boyan, I should be able to capture and kill the other party! Of course, I may have to ask you to help me stabilize the Immortal Heaven. ”
Kuo Liejian also once achieved the realm of earth immortals, but unfortunately he fell down early because he was too old.
Of course, if Batu is willing, he can still use the secret method to fix the immortal heaven on Kuo Liejian's body, so that he can regain his strength in a short time, but at the cost of less than a year of lifespan from then on.
"Uncle, no!"
When everyone heard this, their hearts were relieved, but only the person next to him screamed.
When Brother Ali Buge heard this familiar voice, he immediately felt annoyed, looked sideways, and shouted directly: "What's wrong with you?" Repeatedly stopped himself, he was already extremely disgusted with the person who was Ba Xuan, even if the other party was his younger brother.
Ba Xuan was obviously frightened, but he looked at Kuo Liejian, and persuaded again: "Uncle, it's not that you don't know your body, you have been seriously injured many times before, otherwise how could you fall to the Immortal Realm so quickly? ”
"In that case, who do you think it should be?" Bai Daer asked.
His son, Brie, also said, "That's right. Somebody has to go. After all, Anding City can't be captured, so we can't escape from here. ”
Here, in addition to the Boyan who has left, there are only two people who have the realm of earth immortals, Bai Da'er and Ali Buge, even if it is Tang Yuanxi and Xi Ban or even Ba Xuan, they are only cultivators in the Danding realm, and they are simply delivering food to Xiao Yue, and there is no possibility of participating at all.
