My Chinese ancestors

Chapter 370: Misfortune is like a landslide, and the beam is in its final years
  Near dusk, in the royal study room of the Liang Palace, the civil and military officials who were close to the emperor, such as Ye Ci Nong Farewell, Mi Qin Jiqian, and the clan generals Tuoba Congwu, Tuoba Zhaori, and Tuoba Zongjue, sat in their respective seats and watched. The emperor holding a bowl above.

"Fangdang, Pochao, Feiting three parts... three parts..."

Tuoba Kui gritted his teeth and looked at the food on the table. The bottom of the bowl pressed under his palm shattered with a 'pop'.

"Your Majesty, what happened to Fangdang Sanbu...?" The veteran Ye Ci put down his chopsticks. He somewhat guessed the answer, but still wanted to know how Sanbu lost.

No one in the room interrupted, and continued quietly.

"What's wrong...what's wrong..." Tuoba Kui had never wanted to roar and vent so much before. He grabbed the desk and lifted it violently. The heavy book desk fell over together with the bowls, chopsticks, plates, books, pens and inkstones on it. On the ground, a voice roared out: "What did you say -"

His eyes were red and his hands were clenched into fists.

"Such an excellent opportunity to go around the rear of the Xia Kingdom and raid Jimai City... Once successful, the Xia Kingdom's front army will definitely be in chaos, and we can take the opportunity to defeat it, and then free up our hands to fight with the Xia Kingdom's East Route Army coming from the Qi Kingdom. Fight to the death!"

"I have thought about everything and planned everything! But what about them!"

Tuoba Kui stretched out his palm and spread his fingers. His eyes gradually turned red: "Fifty thousand people! Each of them usually claims to be the best hunter in the mountains and warriors in the northwest mountains, but they were defeated by two thousand cavalry! "

He kicked the debris on the ground away with another kick and roared: "What a shame!"

Ye Ci Nongbie unfolded the message sent from the ground in his hands. His eyes quickly read the words on it, and he couldn't help but show horror on his face. Two thousand defeated fifty thousand. He had heard that the Emperor of Xia used forty thousand to win. They fought against [-] Yan soldiers and horses, and later [-]. When they reached the Central Plains, they faced another [-] troops from the Five Kingdoms.

Unexpectedly, his generals would be so exaggerated.

"Fangdang, Pochao, and Feiting are just a bunch of stupid pigs in the mountains." Tuoba Zhaori, the general of the clan, slapped his knees, obviously unhappy with the three tribes to the north, and these three tribes were close to Zongjue, so he and Tuoba Zong is kind on the surface, but often secretly fights with each other in private.

"Zong Jue, am I right?" He raised his chin at a man in his early thirties opposite.

Opposite, a man named Tuoba Zongjue was the brother of Tuoba Kui's father and the same generation as Tuoba Zhaori. The two were tall, heroic and brave, and were one of the only generals in the clan.

However, Tuoba Zhaori could only sarcastically say that he was no match for Zong Jue in a real fight.

At this time, the emperor who overturned the desk shouted at the two uncles who were bickering below: "Shut up!"

The two people immediately stopped talking and lowered their heads. When there were no other people around, they were uncle-nephew, but in court, especially in front of civil and military officials, they must be monarchs and ministers.

Just when Tuoba Kui was angry, someone whispered outside the door and reported: "Your Majesty, Commander Qi is back."

"Let him in."

Tuoba Kui was distracted by this, suppressed the anger in his heart, and sat back on the chair. After a moment, the door was opened by the eunuch, and he strode in towards Lichui Mountain. He was a little shocked when he saw the mess all over the ground.

But at this time, he was here to report on the situation of taking the trekking cavalry out for inspection and training.

"Your Majesty, today I led the trekking cavalry and discovered the Xia Kingdom's army camp in the northeast of Gudang Mountain. I ordered my warriors to surround the camp and caught them off guard!"

Xiangli Chuishan knew that the emperor was angry, but he did not dare to tell the truth to the other party. If it would add fuel to the fire, he would be dragged out and chopped up, and there would be no place to cry.

"What was the result of the battle?" Hearing this, Tuoba Kui was stunned and quickly asked.

"The battle was fruitful. I led [-] men on horseback to ride into Xia's army camp, killing more than a thousand enemies and setting fire to the enemy's camp."

The surrounding civil and military officials and clan generals were stunned when they heard this. This was a rare victory since the war began.

Emperor Tuoba Kui finally had a smile on his face: "Finally there is good news. It seems that the Xia Kingdom's soldiers are not difficult to defeat! Go to Li Chui Mountain, you have restored my face!"

He waved his hand to ask the eunuch on the side to set up another seat, and then invited him to sit down at Lichui Mountain. "Hurry up and take a seat. I want to hear carefully how you broke into the Xia Kingdom's military camp, and how scared and surprised the Xia Kingdom generals were." expression!"

Several eunuchs placed tables and chairs on the right side of the study. After going to Lichui Mountain to thank the emperor, they went to sit down. Hearing the emperor's request, he was a little embarrassed. He thought for a moment and said: "Back to your majesty, then The general of the Xia Kingdom never dreamed that I would appear outside his camp with cavalry, let alone such an elite cavalry in hand."

When going to Lichui Mountain, they first talked about how to lead the cavalry in the mountains and forests to practice running and formation. Then the scouts in the army discovered the Xia people's baggage. After judging the enemy's situation, they decisively chose to attack.

"Then what's the expression on General Xia's face?"

"Horrified."

"Haha, I like to hear it!"

Tuoba Kui happily clasped his hands and asked Xiang Lichuishan to continue talking. This was a rare victory and he wanted to make a fuss about it and encourage the morale of the people. "By the way, do you have the idea of ​​defeating the Xia Kingdom's army? Just say it, I will definitely support you!"

Xianglichui Mountain kept a calm expression, but he was complaining in his heart. He didn't expect that a lie would cause Tuoba Kui to have such a big reaction.

"If I had known earlier, I would have gained nothing by simply speaking out in front of the other party's camp."

Over there, Tuoba Kui sat quietly on the dragon chair, closing his eyes and listening to Xiang Lichuishan's story. After savoring this hard-won victory for a while, he spoke with satisfaction.

"This is called fighting. Blowing the mountains inward is my good general!"

These words made the civil servants and generals in the room look a little unhappy. Although they were all direct descendants of Tuoba Kui, what they just said just implied that they didn't know how to fight, and only Xiangli Chuishan could.

"Okay, I went a little too far today and shocked you all. It is really because I have been stimulated by the intelligence of repeated defeats during this period and it is difficult to control myself."

The emperor looked at everyone, "Now that I have come to my senses, I won't have the same gaffe as before. I know how to fight in the future."

After saying that, he returned to the dragon chair and sat down with a golden sword.

"You must prepare your troops, horses, and food immediately. I have decided to attack the surrender troops from Qi first! These people have no morale. They look like [-] people, but they are actually vulnerable. Once defeated, it will not affect the morale of Xia's army." A small blow!”

Ye Ci said goodbye, went to Lichuishan, and Tuoba Zhaori quickly sent a flattery.

"Your Majesty Shengming!"

However, at this moment, Tuoba Kui's voice was interrupted by the words "Your Majesty!", and a palace guard was seen quickly running up to the front of the hall from the stone steps outside the palace.

"Your Majesty, something happened!"

The few people in the study had just recovered from the defeat of [-] people in the north. At this moment, they saw the palace guard looking nervous and panting, and his heart suddenly rose to his throat again.

They are afraid that the other person will say something that is overwhelming to them.

"What happened?"

"Your Majesty, the Yasunshantou man from the Sogdian tribe, he...he..."

Tuoba Zhaori was almost disturbed by the guard's hesitant words, so he asked angrily: "What's wrong with him? You should tell me quickly!"

"He led two thousand cavalrymen in Yiluohe, collected the defeated troops of three tribes, and rebelled..."

"what?!"

Tuoba Kui's face suddenly changed and he turned purple from suppressing the pain. He sat on the dragon chair and asked the palace guard to say it again. He was sure that he heard correctly. He clenched his teeth and puffed out his cheeks. It was difficult. squeezed out a hoarse voice.

"Yaxunshan... I treat you well, why would you betray me! Ah!!"

He was on the dragon throne and roared in anger!
  ……

Under the same sky, the wind blew hundreds of miles to the north.

The rough fat man named Yaoshan shook a few pigtails on the side of his head and sneezed in the evening wind.

"Who is this thinking of me?"

He sat in the tent, rubbed the fat on his face, murmured and walked out of the tent, stretching comfortably. In the open space in front of him, the defeated troops of the three tribes were absorbed.

"... In terms of lurking, I would say he is second in the world, but I am afraid no one would dare to say he is number one."

"I've been undercover for two years. Which tribe's leader doesn't recognize me?"

He stood in front of the tent, looking at the thousands of tribal soldiers, crossing his round waist.

"It's my turn to stab the dying Liang Guo, so just lie down in the coffin."
