Chapter 61 Bones Like Mountains and Rivers of Blood (1st Update)
The Xiao cavalry and the Mo Dao army rode on horseback, hurrying silently. As it is today, it is almost impossible for people to see. However, the war horses did not have this problem, and they moved forward in silence one by one, one by one.
There were neither torches nor drums.
The whole army marched silently. Aside from the occasional sneeze of the horses, or the sound of horses' hooves, there was little movement.
Duan Zhigan looked at Zhang Shigui, who was sitting in the big tent with his eyes closed, and said, "Can you hide it from them?" ”
"Pretend to be like it, Yu Guni is not a rookie who doesn't know anything about military affairs, he has been following General Chen for a long time, even if he is a pig, he can learn a lot of things!" Zhang Shigui said: "Don't worry, General Chen will not leave Lingzhou five hundred miles away, and Yu Guni will not dare to move!" ”
Duan Zhi sighed and said: "It's true, good people don't do it, but they just look for death!" ”
Duan Zhigan was also emotional, originally as the first Turkic to take refuge in Chen Ying, Chen Ying asked himself to be not thin on Yu Guni, Yu Shooting Department from the original small tribe of a few thousand people, with the support of Chen Ying, grew into a huge tribe with more than 30,000 people and a population of nearly 100,000, occupying the most fertile grassland under Helan Mountain, plus Yu Guni controlled the slave capture trade, and the annual income was only a lot more than the Turkic Twelve Khans.
But the people's hearts are not enough to swallow the elephant, just after Chen Ying left Lingzhou, Li Daozhen came to Lingzhou and took over the industry left by Chen Ying. Yu Guni had an antipathy at this time, he not only swallowed the steel workshop left by Chen Ying, but also charcoal mines and salt mines, and even thought of occupying Li Daozhen and becoming Li Siye's cheap father.
At that time, Chen Ying remembered that Yu Guni had no actual action, and the assassination of Li Daozhen was also a scene written and directed by Chen Ying. However, as the investigation deepened, gradually the Baye (fine seal) Minda began to surface, and Chen Ying left Yu Guni alive, castrated him, and threw him into the coal mine to dig coal.
Three months ago, though. Unexpectedly, it was discovered that Yu Guni, who was supposed to be digging coal in the coal mine, disappeared unexpectedly, leaving only a slave who was more like him.
Chen Ying asked Shan Xiongxin and Chen Jinyong to investigate strictly, but they never found Yu Guni, and after Chen Ying arrived in Lingzhou this time, he felt that something was wrong. There were no less than 30,000 Turks engaged in coal digging in Lingzhou, and if you count the Turks who opened iron mines and boiled salt, there should be no less than 50,000 or 60,000.
Originally, these Turks were very satisfied when they came to Lingzhou, although they said that they had no personal freedom, but Li Daozhen could let these slaves eat well and dress warmly, which was much better than the days when they were in the steppe.
Sometimes, the rise of a nation is often based on the suffering of many nations. For example, the Turks, the rise of the Turks is stepping on the bones of the Rouran people, and of course, there is the endless suffering of the Chinese nation.
Of course Chen Ying knows, but I'm sorry, he knows which ethnic group he belongs to.
However, Chen Ying knows that things must be opposed, and he also knows that where there is oppression, there will be resistance. So, it is a hard and fast rule to feed all the slaves. can eat a full meal, and then draw a huge picture cake for them, as long as they work honestly for five years, they can get the Tang Dynasty white nationality and become a Tang person.
In order to obtain the white nationality of the Tang Dynasty, these Turkic slaves worked with great vigor, and very few of them were passive and slacking off.
It is no exaggeration to say that at this time, the gold content of Datang's white nationality was much higher than that of the green card in the United States in later generations.
To put it mildly, even if it is the United States to wash toilets, there are a lot of people in the country who go to it.
However, in the past two months, it has been found that among these Turkic slave laborers, there are always people with bad intentions everywhere, and during this period, there have been more than a dozen slave labor troubles, although they have been suppressed, but Chen Ying feels that things are not so simple.
Chen Ying suspected that Yu Guni was playing tricks behind him, after all, Chen Ying implemented the campaign of "killing nobles and dividing cattle and sheep" on the grassland, and Yu Guni was from beginning to end, and only Yu Guni really understood this set of operation processes.
Chen Ying suspected that there was a shadow of Yu Guni in this, so he set up a plan to use the gap when he "left" Lingzhou to let Yu Guni prepare for action. After all, one day earlier, one day later, Chen Ying would have to leave Lingzhou sooner or later, but now it is different, and the Lingzhou left behind is an unsuspecting Lingzhou.
Although there are 30,000 sergeants from Hebei, they have only been trained for two days, and such an army is simply scattered and useless.
When the last person of the Modao Army disappeared without a trace, the two of them who had been silent in the bushes of the Wild Boar Ridge camp talked in a low voice: "Go and report to the king, the Tang Army Chen Ying has withdrawn!" ”
……
In the Silver Wolf Valley of Niushou Mountain, Huile County, Lingzhou, in a huge cave, there are stone tables and stone chairs in the cave, and on the huge stone chair, Yu Guni, who has a haggard face, wraps his body in a white wolf skin. Only two eyes are exposed.
Chen Ying left Yu Guni's life, but Yu Guni was not grateful, on the contrary, he hated Chen Ying to the core. Because Chen Ying made him lose his capital as a man.
Now Yu Guni's face has become fair, his beard has all fallen off, and his voice is like that of an old duck.
Since the fine seal Minda took the golden cicada out of the shell and replaced Yu Guni from the coal mine, Yu Guni recruited the old department while hiding in the silver wolf valley of Baishou Mountain in Huile County, this silver wolf valley was originally stationed in a group of fierce and cunning wild wolves, the wolf king is a silver white wolf, but this white wolf has become the wolf skin on Yu Guni's body, and this wolf cave has become Yu Guni's temporary residence. Yu Guni also calls himself the White Wolf King.
Thin Feng Minda asked for eyeliner: "Are you sure Chen Ying is gone?" ”
Eyeliner nodded and said: "The small one can be sure, after walking for more than an hour, there are at least more than 30,000 war horses!" ”
Xifeng Minda said: "King, Chen Ying has withdrawn, it is obvious that he is going to relieve the siege of Liangzhou, and now our opportunity has come!" ”
"No, the time has not come!" Yu Guni shouted at the top of his voice: "Chen Ying's command is all cavalry, you haven't dealt with Chen Ying, you don't know at all, in terms of cavalry warfare, Chen Ying is invincible in the world, he has just left Lingzhou now, as long as Lingzhou changes, he can come back immediately...... At least wait for Chen Ying to leave Lingzhou five hundred miles away! ”
Xifeng Minda smiled: "King, have you forgotten? Chen Ying still had more than 30,000 recruits left in Lingzhou, and every day of training for these soldiers and horses increased their combat effectiveness by one point. The farther away Chen Ying is from Lingzhou, there is no way for Chen Ying to come back in time, but the new army under his command may not be easy to deal with! ”
"Fine-sealed Minda, it's not your turn to call the shots here!" Yu Guni's face became more and more gloomy, his eyes were also full of anger, he looked at the fine seal Minda fiercely, and said lightly: "Fine seal Minda, don't think that you saved this king, you can point fingers at this king, in line with a responsible attitude towards our cause, we must wait, wait for Chen Ying to leave Lingzhou for five hundred miles before making a move!" ”
Fine beads of sweat appeared on the tip of Minda's nose, and he said worriedly: "Humble obedience!" ”
Yu Guni suddenly got up, walked behind Xifeng Minda, and stared at Xifeng Minda with his eyes: "Remember, this is the last time to warn you, don't point fingers in front of this king, otherwise, this king will chop you up and feed it to the dogs!" ”
……
Chen Ying left Lingzhou and marched southwest along the course of the Yellow River until around noon the next day, when the Xiao cavalry army and the Modao army arrived in Mingsha County.
However, Chen Ying did not receive the news from Lingzhou. However, Chen Ying was not worried about the affairs of Lingzhou, because he had already set up a situation, as long as Yu Guni dared to jump out, he would definitely be unable to escape.
Just when Chen Ying ordered a rest, he unexpectedly received a report from the battle in Liangzhou.
However, this battle report made Chen Ying's heart hang again.
When Tongye Hu Khan burned the city wall of Liangzhou with Greek fire, he found that Li Daozong was actually a mud wall in the city gate hole, although the outer layer was burned by Greek fire very insistently, but only a layer of mud about a foot was hardened, except for the hard mud of about this foot, the inside was soft mud.
At this time, the protector of Tongye ordered the guards to dig the soil from the outside to the inside from the hole in the city gate, and the soil dug out was poured into the moat. Although it is said that the speed of manpower digging is limited in this era, and it takes only half a day of work for most of the time to dig out the soil blocked in the city gate hole, and the Western Turks can dig the passage through the city gate hole in two or three hours at most.
At this time, Li Daozong had no choice. He used a good knife cart to block the city gate hole. After the hole in the city gate was dug through last night, Tong Ye Hu sent his re-armored soldiers to attack.
This resting dead soldier is one of the cannon fodder troops of Tongye Guard, each wearing two layers of cold-forged armor made of Uzi steel, slowly advancing, these resting dead soldiers are simply iron cans, humanoid tanks.
The soldiers of the Tang Army, hiding behind the Saimen knife cart, slashed and chopped the dead soldiers! But the dead soldiers did not dodge or dodge, and the long knife slashed at them as a sound, and the spear pierced it, and the shaft of the spear was stretched into a bow, but the tip of the spear could not be inched in!
In the sneer of the dead soldiers, the short spears in their hands stabbed the throat or chest of the Tang soldiers like lightning, fast and accurate, and before these Tang soldiers could withdraw their swords and guns to block, the blades of the short spears had easily broken through their armor, and the handles pierced into the throat or chest, protruding from the back bloodily.
Blood splattered on the wounds of the Tang soldiers who were stabbed, and before they could fall to the ground, they had already lost their breath.
The rest of the dead soldiers pressed up like an iron wall, and the short spears kept piercing out, almost every shot pierced the vital point of a Tang soldier, taking away a life.
And the blade on the Saimen knife cart hit them like they tickled. I can't help them at all. However, the soldiers of the Tang Army also understood that they had no way to retreat, once the city gate cave was lost, the entire Liangzhou would inevitably fall into hell on earth, for this reason, the Tang army and the Western Turks launched a crazy fierce battle around the city gate hole, the two sides tore apart more than once, the entire city gate hole was quickly filled with corpses, and the blood in the city gate cave flowed into a river.
