Reborn in the late Northern Wei Dynasty

Chapter 412 Procrastination

Chapter 412 Procrastination
An Luochen thought about it for a while, and it really was the same reason. If the Turks had not found the trace of Gao Cheng's army and it was approaching, they definitely would not have offered such a favorable condition.

Besides, the emissary promised too quickly, it must be Ashina Tumen who had confessed before, and must have facilitated this matter.

As if taking a reassurance pill, with confidence in his heart, An Luochen was only restless on the surface. He didn't reject Turkic's proposal because he knew Gao Cheng was coming, but asked whether he could be allowed to think about it for a while. day.

This time the Turkic envoy refused, and insisted that the next morning could not be passed at the latest, which made An Luochen more convinced that Gao Cheng was really close to him.

In order to prevent Ashina's tumen dog from jumping over the wall in a hurry, he ordered a rush to attack tonight. An Luochen decided to delay the time as much as possible. With difficulty, he agreed to the Turkic people's request, and led the soldiers and their families to evacuate tomorrow morning, leaving the women and children to Ashina Tumen.

Ashina Tumen received the messenger's report and finally let go of the stone in their hearts. It was indeed as Gao Ziang guessed, and Gao Cheng was indeed close. According to Ashina Tumen's calculations, it was only two days away from his fast horse. the distance.

He didn't want to take a huge risk to fight another battle with Northern Qi. It would be the best policy to take his women and children with him and flee far away.

What's more, what's going on with the Heda people at the door of the house now? Their eyes are blackened. The Rouran Khanate collapsed suddenly, and the situation on the grassland has changed drastically. If you still look at the relationship with the Heda people in the old way, you will be hit hard sooner or later .

The next day, early in the morning, Ashina Tumen still couldn't wait for the news of An Luochen's departure, so they sent envoys to the camp to inquire, but they said that the news had leaked. When women and children heard that they would be abandoned, they all gathered in An Luochen's felt bag before crying.

An Luochen couldn't advance or retreat for a while, he asked Ashina Tumen to give himself some more time, and he would definitely leave in the afternoon.

Ashina Tumen heard the envoy talk about the scene of more than [-] women and children kneeling and crying outside An Luochen's felt bag, and was deceived, and gave An Luochen some time.

In the afternoon, there was still no movement from An Luochen, so he sent someone to urge him to leave.

When the envoy arrived, An Luochen dispersed the women and children, and hoped that Ashina Tumen would give him some more time to allow him and the soldiers to pack their bags. Before that, An Luochen had gone to comfort the women and children. Must leave.

Ashina Tumen waited until nightfall, but still did not see An Luochen evacuating. He ordered people to wait and see, and saw that the Rouran tent was heavily guarded, and An Luochen showed no sign of abandoning the camp. When An Luochen procrastinated twice, he had a premonition, but he just had a fluke mentality. Now that the premonition was confirmed, An Luochen was clearly delaying time.

Angry and angry, Ashina Tumen launched an attack on Rouran that night, but the people of Rouran rested for a day, and their physical strength recovered. With the help of An Luochen, all members of the army were soldiers, regardless of the orders of women and children, and relying on the camp, they could not resist Do Turkic offensive.

The news that the reinforcements from the Northern Qi Dynasty were about to arrive undoubtedly inspired the people of Rouran to persevere.

Seeing that there was no hope of breaking the camp for the time being, Ashina Tumen had to order to stop the attack and recall the soldiers to recuperate in order to deal with the approaching Gaocheng army.

At the same time, Gao Jishi led Wanqi all the way to Junji Mountain in the middle of the Jinshan Mountains, where [-] Han soldiers under Li Ling's command were besieged by [-] Huns.

Gao Jishi climbed Junji Mountain, and he and the military governor Baoxian said with emotion:
"Li Ling marched here alone with an army of infantry, so there is no reason for him to be invincible."

Violently said:

"If the bows and crossbows and food are sufficient, they may be returned to the army."

Gao Jishi does not agree with:
"5000 people carry 150 million arrows, how can it be said that the military is not enough."

After finishing speaking, Gao Jishi looked at the peaceful field to the east of Junji Mountain. He and the generals beside him said:
"It's just killing women and children. Let the soldiers use less arrows, and only use cavalry spears and sabers to stab and slash. It can also be regarded as practicing cavalry combat and close combat."

In a calm tone, he said the cruelest words.

After sending messengers to the west to contact the Heda people in the west of the Jinshan Mountains, Gao Jishi gave an order, and Wanqi under his command rushed eastward.

Qi Yutu is a young Xianbei knight from the Six Towns of Xianbei. After reaching the age of fifteen, like many young warriors in the clan, he chose to join the army. Fortunately, he stayed in the ranks of soldiers, not like some companions. He didn't meet the standards for soldiers and was sent to the state and county soldiers.

As a child of a martial artist from Beizhen, it is really shameful to go to serve as a soldier in the prefecture and county, and to be with the weak Han people.

However, Qi Yutu didn't think he was lucky. He was assigned to Longyou because of his unlucky luck. Before the two southern expeditions, they had been guarding against Yuwentai's northward expedition. The officers and soldiers of the Kwantung were awarded titles and rewards for capturing Huainan and Jianghan. It would be a lie to say that they were not envious.

Now the Longyou cavalry finally got the task of attacking, but everything was quite different from Qi Yutu's imagination.

Since Gao Cheng took full control of the army, he has always emphasized discipline and strictly prohibited soldiers from killing civilians in wars. Of course, this is also because the previous wars were domestic unification wars in nature. During the unification process, civilians were massacred for no reason. , will only increase the local people's hatred of the regime.

Of course, killing a lot and killing hard is another way of saying it.

Qi Yutu joined the army after Gao Cheng came to power, and was taught that it is strictly forbidden to wield butcher knives at unarmed women and children. , Chile people, whether they are men, women, old or young, the sabers and lances in the hands of the soldiers have changed from the initial intolerance to the current numbness, just like chopping grass and stakes in the school field, but the touch of the sword into the flesh is so real .

Northern Qi cavalry galloped on the grasslands, driving to the nomadic hinterland of the Turks, regardless of people or animals along the way, they really managed to leave no one alive.

Ashina Tumen left the third son Ashina Kutou in charge of guarding the tribe, and only gave him less than 5000 troops to guard against the Heda people.

Today the wind is very noisy, the sky is full of sand and dust, and the animals are restless. Ashina Kutou didn't care about it. This kind of weather is very common. The livestock are just afraid of the wind and sand, so there is no need to make a fuss.

However, the spies sent out to monitor the Heda people returned in a hurry, and the news they brought back surprised Ashina Kutou: countless cavalry of unknown race, they were killing wildly on the grassland, not looking for lives, and they were killing the tribe.

Ashina Kutou inquired about the quantity, and the sentry cavalry only replied: "It's all over the mountains and plains."

 Go back tomorrow.
