Chapter 2 The Unpredictable of Reality and Fiction
Qin Langchuan asked, "What's wrong?"
Chang Sihao whipped his horse to the ground: "The enemy is rushing to the ground, and he must choose the straightest and shortest route, and we should take the same road, where 80,000 iron horsemen have stepped on, how can you not even see a hoof print?"
Qin Langchuan made a radical move, and glanced at the ground by the moonlight, only to see that the wasteland was bleak, the dead trees were withered, and the yellow leaves were mixed between the grass gaps, although they were dry, but they were very complete. I was so confused in my mind that I ignored this. muttered: "Could it be that the third lady Zhong Jin is telling a lie?" Chang Sihao frowned and was silent. Qin Langchuan straightened his thoughts for a while, and said: "This woman is very intelligent, she has a considerable degree of understanding of military and political affairs, she is by no means comparable to ordinary concubines, how important is the military situation, how can she leak it lightly, it seems that she has really been deceived by her this time." ”
Chang Sihao said: "To say that I replied that the previous slow march was to make the defenders slack, and then rush to attack and be caught off guard, this is also reasonable, but will he also think that our side can see through this plan, be prepared, and be waiting for work?" If this is the case, he doubled the way to attack the people and horses, and the rash siege must have huge losses, I replied that since he is a veteran with troops, he will naturally not suffer this hard loss, but the army has been out, and he will never retreat in vain, maybe he will come to a hypocrisy, so that Zhong Jinsuo led the men and horses still to Datong, only as a suspicious soldier, and he led the army to change the route and attack elsewhere. ”
Qin Langchuan was hesitant, thinking that it would be more difficult to use twenty or thirty thousand people as suspicious soldiers. Although he has a wealth of combat experience, looking at his previous combat examples, it seems that he has only seen a little bit of tactical intelligence, and he has fought bravely and hard, but he has used very few tactics, and he has led 100,000 troops, and his power is not small, so how can he fight so flickeringly? This is not like his style.
Chang Sihao said: "We don't know where his soldiers are going, blindly looking for it will only be a waste of time, it is better to go back to Datong first and then decide on the situation." ”
Qin Langchuan nodded, the two of them fought like horses, galloped all the way back, and when the city was approaching, it was already dawn, the sentry posts at the head of the city were paraded, and the flags were displayed, as in the past, the two of them were a little settled. After entering the city, An Ziteng, Chen Shengyi and others surrounded him, and saw Qin Langchuan's face turned gray, and they were all taken aback, Chang Sihao briefly described the experience, An Ziteng came over and stroked Qin Langchuan's sleeves, only to see that his two arms were purple and black and swollen, and he felt cold with his hand, and said in a lost voice: "Old lady! This arm can't be saved!" Qin Langchuan smiled lightly: "I have closed the meridians in my body, and there is no obstacle for the time being, what about General Yan?"
An Ziteng and the others felt pain in their hearts when they saw him so seriously injured and pretended to be nothing, and Chen Shengyi lowered his voice: "Lord Yan is discussing with the people from Ningxia Weilai, and I heard that it was sent by Wang Chonggu. ”
Qin Langchuan was stunned for a moment, knowing that Wang Chonggu was not a simple person, he Jiajing was 34 years old and had a meritorious service to add Shaanxi according to the inspection envoy, three years ago he was the right to the imperial history, the governor of Ningxia, and I answered the war, this person is the best at making counter-plots, and he is quite good at dealing with Tartars. This year, he was promoted to the right attendant of the military department, and the military affairs of Ningxia, Gansu, Shaanxi, and Yansui were the governors.
Chen Shengyi: "Datong is in the east of the Yellow River, Lord Wang's soldiers are not far from Helan Mountain in the west, the middle is the Hetao area, both sides are like a big tong clamping the Jacket Dusi, the Ji Nang and I Da in this place are the same clan, both are the descendants of the son of Dayan Khan, Baalsborot, but their power is not strong, after Ji Nang's death, his sons are now subjugated to Alta, if Lord Wang's soldiers attack in Ningxia, break the jacket of the Dusi, and insert the knife into the rear of the Alta, then the big thing will be done." ”
Qin Langchuan said with a smile: "Don't think about beautiful things, you will be happy in the future, isn't it happy in vain?" At this moment, I heard a person laugh and said: "Don't be happy in vain, eight or nine will not leave ten!" Everyone followed the sound and turned their heads sideways, only to see General Yan coming down from the city with a happy face, walking with a happy trembling energy, and the leaves of the armor were loud. Everyone inquired about the situation, Yan Zongbing said with a smile: "As Brother Chen expected, Wang Shilang is what he meant, he has sent Lei Long Lei General Soldier to send troops to the Jacket Dusi, as long as the victory leads me to answer the return army to rescue, we will cover up and kill in the back, we will get the full credit, I have written a letter to teach people to bring back to their lives, let's just wait for a big fight!"
A soldier in the city suddenly shouted: "Lord Zhentai, there is a horse back!"
"Kaecheng let in!" said Yan Zongbing's voice with joy.
He knelt down on one knee and said with a worried face: "My lord!
"What!"
Everyone took a breath and gritted their teeth when they heard this, the people of a county, that are hundreds of families, thousands of lives, just gone!
Chang Sihao and Qin Langchuan glanced at each other, thinking that Zhong Jin, the little princess, really told a lie, this little Tartar girl was clever and treacherous, and she could distinguish the matter, and she should not be underestimated in the future.
Tanma continued: "Now I will use the strategy of the military division Bokeduo, divide the troops in three ways, and lead the first army to attack Shuozhou, the general of the second route army, Bo Rigude, to take the old camp, and the other way Sukhba Shou ran to the side pass. ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone's faces changed.
"My lord!" a general behind General Yan said: "If Shuozhou is broken, the Tartars will not be allowed to fight Yanmen Pass? It is better to send a group of men and horses to the rescue!" Another person hurriedly said: "Datong's position is ten times more important than Shuozhou, and the troops are insufficient, so they can only be strictly defended, how can they be lightly released!" General Yan was silent.
Chang Sihao said: "In my opinion, the soldiers are divided into three routes, which are intended to loot property, not to seize the customs and occupy the land. ”
An Ziteng said: "Not bad. The ultimate purpose of harassment and plundering over the years was to coerce the imperial court to allow tribute and trade, and the Tartars were all herdsmen, who could not cultivate at all, and it was useless to occupy the land and cities, so they had always robbed things and burned them and left. ”
The tanma slammed his fist to the ground: "In order to find out their movements, I followed them all the way, and I saw them all, ordinary bandits kill people only after robbing things, but they kill first and then rob, and they don't want to leave a living mouth at all!"
Qin Langchuan squinted his eyes and said slowly: "Xiaohao, you once said that I replied that Zhongjin's group was a suspicious soldier, but the suspicious soldier only needs to bluff, even if he wants to protect his beloved concubine, it is enough to have Wu Enqi's three thousand iron guards, but he left more than 20,000 people, do you know what his intentions are?"
Chang Sihao has been thinking about this question for a long time, and when he saw him asking, he put it together and said: "He led the people to the south, did not concentrate his forces to attack Shuozhou, but divided his troops into three routes, indicating that the siege of the city was false and plundering, and Zhong Jin's 20,000 horses could be false and real, and the virtual was suspicious, so that Datong did not dare to come to the south, but in fact, he drove the big forward and rushed to become the Fourth Route Army." No matter how the virtual and the real are transformed, the cities will be left alone, and they will not dare to help each other, and it will be difficult to form a joint situation. Even if they couldn't break the city, they plundered the surrounding prefectures and counties, and their goal of deterring and shaking the imperial court had been achieved. ”
Yan Zongbing said: "I also thought so, but I sent 100,000 troops and horses to come, the consumption is not small, I am afraid that the looting in the villages and counties will make it difficult for him to be satisfied, and he will definitely take a big city to get his heart, if it goes well, maybe he will also want to turn around in Beijing." ”
Chen Sheng said: "I have personally led the troops to the south, and I have explained that his intention is in Shuozhou. ”
Qin Langchuan nodded, frowned slightly, and his expression was heavy: "Shuozhou has the Great Wall in the south and Yanmen in the east, guarding the pass, but it can become a world of its own. If Shuozhou is taken, if it is attacked, it can not only pass through the Yanmen Pass and go straight to Xinzhou, but also go through the Yanbei to bypass Datong to get the Beijing division; if it is defended, the reinforcements of the Tumut headquarters will come along the Biguan River, and it will not take three days to arrive through the head of the water and through the Jingping. ”
Yan Zongbing was shocked and said: "If this is the case, then it will be connected to the territory of the Tartars outside the Great Wall!"
If it develops like this, the defense line of the Great Wall will be destroyed, that is, the land will be destroyed, and it is no longer as simple as the people being plundered. "My lord, give the order!" "Yes, let's send troops!" Several generals asked for reinforcements from the south. Seeing that everyone was about to lose their cool, An Ziteng hurriedly said: "Don't worry, everyone! Shuozhou and Datong are dependent on each other and take care of each other, if Shuozhou is lost, Datong will be lonely and difficult to protect! But Zhong Jin's group has to be considered, once we send troops to the south to help, the city is empty, and it will be bad for her to attack!" Everyone hesitated when they heard this, and they were speechless for a long time. Chang Sihao said: "It seems that I am really getting older and smarter, and I really have some means in the use of soldiers, which is much stronger than the soldiers I have seen." The first general shook his head and said: "Although I know the art of war, I am a bold and rough man, and he fights more bravely and uses less tricks. This must be another strategy of the military advisor Boktor. ”
Chang Sihao heard the name Bokdo again, frowned, and said: "This person is not small, he is very erratic in command, I didn't expect that there are people among the Tatars who are so good at using soldiers." ”
An Ziteng smiled disdainfully: "He is actually a Han man, his name is Zhao Quan, he was traitorous to Tatar thirteen years ago, and changed his name to Yibin Fu Bulang, Bokeduo is his title, not his real name, in Mongolian it means wise, heroic, and holy people." There are still many people like him in the army, such as Lu He, Li Zixin, Wang Tingfu, Zhang Yanwen, etc., all of whom have changed their names and surnames and served in the army. ”
"His grandmother's!" Qin Langchuan scolded with a smile: "A dog traitor actually calls himself heroic and virtuous, he really rubs rouge powder on his ass and eggs - what a big face!"
The crowd laughed, and the oppressive atmosphere eased slightly.
An Ziteng said: "Laughing and laughing, the old lady should not despise this person, this Zhao Quanxiao art of war, know the change, and the art of the essence of the yellow, once for me to cure the leg disease, it was appreciated and reused, he once said to me to say that let it be plugged in the wild goose gate according to the clouds, invade the valley to force the Yong, follow the story of Shi Jin, after the matter was completed, he and I answered to occupy Yunzhong and Taiyuan, respect me as the emperor, he is the king, the ambition is quite small. Last year, he even sent people to infiltrate the cities on our border, buy gold leaf paints and other things, and went back to build a palace for Alta, and served him diligently, which made Alta very satisfied, and his status in the army was also very high. ”
Qin Langchuan laughed: "Taiyuan is rich and rich, it has always been the capital of the emperor, this bastard is a wolf pretending to be a dog to serve the pig, and he does not have a good heart, in the future, I will understand the taste, and I will not give him good fruits to eat." ”
Everyone was relieved when they heard this, but suddenly saw Qin Langchuan's face change, and his body fell backwards!
