Chapter 603: Butcher of the Prairie

Zhuojun to Yunnei 800 miles, Luo Cheng led his troops to march for five days, this place is still 600 miles away from the Monan Khanting, and it is to go out of the Great Wall, the road is more difficult to walk.

At this time, it had been twelve days since Luo Cheng received King Qin's order, and it had been sixteen days since the emperor was besieged by Yanmen.

The soldiers didn't know whether Yanmen City was still holding on, and they didn't know if the emperor had been captured.

The road became more and more difficult to walk, and Duan Da began to complain constantly, and even proposed a turn to go south to Yanmen.

"Those who dare to discuss the south again to shake the hearts of the army will be killed!"

Luo Cheng coldly announced to the generals that he was also warning Duan Da. But Duan Da was also angry at this time, "Dashuai, there are still six hundred miles to go to the Khan Court, and the road is even more difficult, even if you break through the Shibi Khan Court, but Shibi will receive the news, it is estimated that it will take a few days, this back and forth, are you delayed?" ”

"If there is a half-point difference in Yanmen City, can you afford it?"

In the face of Grandma Duan's accusation, Luo Cheng's reply was very simple.

"This marshal is the envoy of the loyal army of Andong Province, and His Majesty gave me a double festival, which is a full seal of power, and can be dispatched with full authority by this section, so it is called a festival envoy. Jiedu makes the generals and county magistrates have the right to control and even kill and kill. ”

Reward with special rewards, and kill with special festivals.

This feast is not given casually.

Although Duan Da is the deputy envoy of Jiedu, he is still under the jurisdiction of Jiedu Envoy, and in the entire Andong Dao, Luo Cheng has nothing that Luo Cheng cannot kill except for the observation envoy who is in charge of the supervision general.

"Come on, push Duan Da out and behead the public!"

Duan Da's face changed drastically all of a sudden, and he didn't expect Luo Cheng to kill him if he said that he would kill him.

"Luo Cheng, you dare to kill me, I am the emperor's deputy envoy!"

"What about the deputy envoy, you have repeatedly questioned the commander's military orders and shaken the morale of the army. If it is in peacetime, I only need to play a statement to His Majesty and hand you over to His Majesty's disposal, but now for wartime, marching and fighting, how can it be child's play, this commander has just announced the military order, dare to question the military order to shake the heart of the army, the words just fell, you jumped to oppose it, deliberately disobey the military order, this commander can not allow you. Come, push out, behead, and send the heads of the armies as a warning. ”

Murong Changsheng, the commander of the White Horse Yicong, immediately shouted the order, summoned a team of White Horse Yicong's personal guards, and knocked Duan Da to the ground.

He took off his armor, tied his arms, and dragged him out.

"Luo Cheng, you dare!"

Duan Da was still there screaming in annoyance.

Seeing this, Feng Lun and Li Baiyao, who were appeased here, also hurriedly came over to intercede.

"The marshal, the two armies have not fought, behead the deputy marshal first, this is only afraid of ominous, please calm the marshal's anger."

"That's right, it's better to remove Duan from the post of deputy marshal first, and then hand it over to His Majesty after the war."

Luo Cheng looked at the two with a smile.

"Why, do you two also have to question the commander's military order? Feng appeased, although you are a pacifier, but Ben Shuai can also ask you to behead you. Li observes, even if Ben Shuai can't kill the observer, Ben Shuai can also dismiss you first, do you believe it? ”

Feng Deyi and Li Baiyao didn't expect Luo Cheng to be a person, and they turned their faces when they said that they would turn their faces.

Qu Tutong stepped forward and diluted mud.

Luo Chengdao, "Old General Qu Tu, I won't give anyone face today, if anyone comes to persuade again, then don't blame Ben Shuai and deal with it together!" ”

As soon as these words came out, Qu Tutong had nothing to say.

"Slashed!"

Duan Da's legs softened suddenly.

"Luo Cheng, aren't you afraid that Your Majesty will condemn you?"

"We'll talk about it then."

Bai Ma Yi pulled Duan Da down, and a moment later, Duan Da's head was raised.

Seeing that Luo Cheng really killed Duan Da, Feng Deyi and the others were also pale.

Killed Duan Da, 20,000 horses, and once again had a clear goal, that is, to go out of the Great Wall to the Monan Khanting.

No matter what the situation in Yanmen is at this time, it doesn't matter.

Before setting off again, Luo Cheng said to the soldiers that there are 100,000 Xiaoguo elites in Yanmen City, and there are 25,000 people in the first army of Heiye in Laoxian County, not to mention that various Qinwang soldiers such as Taiyuan, Hebei, and Zhuojun are rushing to go, maybe they have arrived at Yanmen City at this moment.

They didn't go to Yanmen to join in the fun, they wanted to go to the Khan's court to raid the nest of the Turks, this time not only to relieve the siege of Yanmen, but also to hit the Turks hard.

Eleven years of great cause.

August 28.

Luo Cheng passed under the city of Mayi Yunnei, at this time, this border city, has long been a ruin, the city was broken by the Turks, the people were taken captive, the Turks looted the city, burned the city.

Luo Cheng did not enter the clouds, nor did he divide his troops to stay.

Now is not the time.

He led his army to the north, crossed the Great Wall Pass and the Cowhide Pass, and headed all the way north.

The 20,000 cavalry of the department, led by the scout light cavalry who was familiar with the terrain of the northern desert and the south, quickly marched.

Although the road taken by Luo Cheng is not as smooth as the official road in the Central Plains, it is also a famous ancient road.

Yunnei used to be the capital of the Northern Wei Dynasty, and the Northern Wei Dynasty set up six towns on the Yinshan line, and the emperors of the Northern Wei Dynasty often went out to patrol the fortress, so there is a very famous ancient road line in Yunnei to the north.

It would have been difficult to walk in this mountainous basin if they had carried infantry and baggage, but the fact that men had horses, and that they were two, did not hinder them in the slightest.

Out of the Great Wall, the further north you go, the more unusual the geography and climate become.

The sky is bluer and lower.

Vast expanses of wasteland and rolling hills.

After crossing the Great Wall, scattered Turkic tribes appeared, and these people lived in a nomadic manner.

For these Turkic tribes who appeared on the road, Luo Cheng was not polite.

If you can avoid it, try to avoid it, and if you can't avoid it, then launch a surprise attack directly.

Turkic, encircled, then annihilated.

Every time he conquered a tribe, Luo Cheng slaughtered all its cattle, horses, sheep and other livestock, and took away all the men who were taller than the wheels, leaving only the women and children.

I couldn't bear to leave them, and I took the men away for fear that they would report the news.

Killing all the cattle and horses was a punishment for the Turks.

They have livestock meat to eat, and they will be fine for the time being, but this winter will be sad, they will lose their ding, and the tribe will weaken.

However, after breaking through several tribes in a row, they found that there were only old people and young people in the tribes, and only some young and strong men were disabled and stupid, and the healthy young and strong men were gone.

The Turks had not gone south to fight in the grassy valley for many years.

"It's possible that these women will also report the news!" Qu Tutong said to Luo Chengdao, "If you want me to say, you should kill them all, and leave no one." ”

"Horses and camels have been killed, and they have no mounts, so they can't walk to tell the news."

In the breached tribal camp, eating roast mutton and roast beef, and roasting camel hump, it is a rare ease when marching hard.

However, Luo Cheng forbade rape and slaughter of the elderly and children.

There is no need to do things that don't make sense.

It is better to have a good night's sleep when you are full, and take away the dried meat found in the tribe during the day, and by the way, each person brings a piece of beef and mutton and a pot of mare's milk or sheep's milk and camel's milk.

Ride all the way north.

also raided all the way through.

Everywhere they passed, the tribe no longer had horses and camels that could run, nor cattle and sheep that could graze, all of them were killed by the Sui army, and even in the back, the loyal army did not need to do anything more, only drove the Turkic men who were captured along the way to kill cattle and horses.

Behind the loyal army, there is the grassland of death, and the weeping tribe.

The women and children were weeping, wondering what they would do without the cows, horses, and sheep. I don't even know that the Sui people have already hit Saibei, so what about their husbands and sons who went south to fight in the grass valley!

The whole grassland is immersed in sadness and fear.
