Chapter 456: Father

Xiao Rang suddenly looked up to the sky and sighed: "Wronged! How did I give birth to you two rebels!"

Liu Jingxuan said with a crying voice: "Father, forgive the child for being unfilial. For such a long time, you have been by your son's side, but your son has never recognized his father! But I don't know that you are guarding the child day and night. The child is really unfilial!" As he spoke, Liu Jingxuan kowtowed more than once, and there was a sound of knocking.

Chu Jinglian looked at Xiao Rang blankly: "Are you really a father?"

Xiao Rang let the tears flow on his cheeks, and said sadly: "Yes, I am your father, Helian Qingtian! Yinghua, I'm sorry for you for my father!"

The jade melting sword in Chu Jinglian's hand fell to the ground with a "dang chang", Chu Jinglian fell to his knees, and then knelt forward on his knees and crawled a few steps, hugged Xiao Rang's legs with both hands, and cried.

Everyone around them was secretly frightened, but no one understood what was going on.

Helian Qingtian looked at the sky, his right hand gently stroked the top of Chu Jinglian's head, and said softly: "This place is not suitable for a long time, let's leave quickly!"

Everyone got on their horses and rushed to Miao Village. It wasn't until the sun turned west that everyone returned to Miao Village. As soon as Liu Jingxuan and the others entered the Miao camp, they saw the middle of the camp from a distance, with a high spirit shed and tall white sails. Nu Yu and a group of Miao leaders tied white cloth strips on their heads, knelt beside King Miao's corpse, and had been guarding King Miao for a day and a night.

From the moment King Miao's body was carried into the Miao camp, Nuyu's heart was like a knife, and she was overwhelmed with grief. After a day of crying, Nuyu's voice was hoarse, and her tears were almost dry. Duan Huaibei saw it in his eyes and was very distressed. As the new leader of the Bai clan, he helped the descendants of King Luo Miao of Nuyu Zhang.

Helian Qingtian walked up to Nu Yu, gently picked up Nu Yu, and said softly: "The army of the Dzungar Department and the Qing army will soon be here. Your Royal Highness, this is not the time to be sad. You will also lead your people into battle against the Qing army. ”

Nu Yu raised his eyebrows, gritted his teeth and said, "Yes, I still want to avenge my father!"

Liu Jingxuan's eyes hesitated, and he stepped forward and said, "Your Royal Highness Princess, there is still a chance to leave this place now." It's better to climb over the Kunlun Mountains and go back to Tibet!"

Nu Yu shook his head categorically: "If Lord Liu wants to escape, please take care of yourself!"

Liu Jingxuan said a little anxiously: "Your Royal Highness Princess, now 200,000 soldiers are pressing the border. We're only 40,000 people. Forty thousand against two hundred thousand is tantamount to a moth throwing fire and hitting a stone with an egg. It's not too late for a gentleman to take revenge for ten years, let's retreat for the time being, and the matter of revenge can be slowly figured out in the future!"

Nu Yu said angrily: "Don't say it! If you don't take revenge and let me escape, how can I be worthy of my father." ”

Liu Jingxuan wanted to say something, but Helian Qingtian grabbed Liu Jingxuan's hand and signaled him to say that it was useless.

Nu Yu looked at Helian Qingtian and asked softly, "Dare to ask Mr. your surname?"

Helian Qingtian smiled and said, "In Xia Xiao Rang." ”

Nu Yu nodded lightly: "I have long heard that there is a think tank beside Lord Liu, the prefect of Yangzhou, and it turns out to be Your Excellency. Lucky to be happy."

Helian Qingtian twisted his beard and smiled faintly: "The wisdom tank is a bit exaggerated, but it is just that it has eaten a few years more than others, and has wasted a few years of spring, summer, autumn and winter! King Miao's body should be cremated as soon as possible!"

Liu Jingxuan and Chu Jinglian glanced at each other, and they still understood in their hearts.

Nu Yu hesitated, but finally agreed to Helian Qingtian's request.

Nuyu cremated the body of Miao Wang Ye Maha, and then gathered all the generals in the big tent to discuss the enemy's plan. This time, not only Zhu Cihuan, Cheng Qiran, Chu Jinglian and others were invited to the big tent, but even the leaders of the four evils of the Qing court and the four major villas were also invited.

Seeing that everyone had arrived, Nu Yu got up from the seat in the center and made a circle at everyone: "Heroes, uncles, my father fell for the treacherous plan of Dzungar Khan to plot Arabutan, and was murdered. Now the Dzungar tribe has joined forces with the Manchu Qing Dynasty to prepare to exterminate our Miao and Bai tribes. Nuyu is here, and I implore everyone to work together to avenge my father and kill the enemy. If you have any way, please don't hesitate to give advice!"

The leaders of the Miao tribe in the big tent lowered their heads and sighed, and the original high momentum disappeared with the defection of the Dzungar tribe.

Zhu Cihuan coughed and said, "Your Royal Highness the Princess." Now that the Dzungar Ministry and the Manchu Qing have joined forces, the 200,000-strong army has become a flank attack. Our army is no more than 40,000 men, and there is a serious shortage of horses, food, knives, guns, and firearms. How do we fight them?"

Nu Yu's face became very pale, Zhu Cihuan's words not only represented him, but in fact, Liu Jingxuan in the big tent thought so.

Helian Qingtian suddenly stepped forward and said, "Although the third master's words are reasonable, it is not without room for maneuver. Looking back, there are many examples of less winning more. The Battle of Julu, the Battle of Guandu, and the Battle of Chibi are all examples of winning more with less. ”

Cheng Qiran shook his head gently: "Mr. Xiao, this time, that time." I don't think that thirty-six plans are the best policy. ”

Helian Qingtian was a little displeased and said: "Mr. Cheng, this is a bad word! If you don't try, you don't know if you can do it or not." Look, everybody!"

As he spoke, Helian Qingtian pointed to the sand table placed in the big tent. This was done according to the local terrain after Miao Wang Ye Maha came here.

"Although the Qing army was numerous, it was coming from thousands of miles. They were poor in men and horses, and they lacked food and grass. Until today, the Qing army has not sent troops, and the reason is that the grain and grass carts have not fully arrived in Ruoqiang County. If I had waited for an ambush in Yitunbulak, five hundred miles southeast of Ruoqiang County, and burned the grain and grass of the sorrowful, the Qing army would have collapsed without a fight. ”

Cheng Qiran shook the goose feather fan lightly and said lightly: "I heard that on the way from Qinghai to Xinjiang, Zhuoji has been guarded by heavy troops, and their grain and grass trucks are guarded by thousands of soldiers. I can burn it if I wait. ”

Helian Qingtian smiled indifferently: "The third master's subordinates may not be able to do it." But the old man believed that the brothers of the Optimus Pavilion would accomplish this important task. ”

Cheng Qiran's eyes flashed, and he said loudly: "If they can't burn grain, but fall for the tricks of the Qing army, what will happen?"

Helian Qingtian was silent for a moment and said, "It is up to man to plan things and to achieve things in heaven." If you fail to burn the grain, you can only fight to the death!"

On the side, Nu Yu asked with some hesitation: "Mr. Xiao, the Junggar Department is in the area of Hotan, and the western part of my Miao people. What should we do if they attack our army?"
