ruffian mixed in ancient times

Chapter 31 "The Great War is Coming" (2)
The battle of wits with the stewardess made him even more exhausted. Since he went to Qinshan Mountain, he saw the surrounding mountains and fields were burning with flames, and tens of thousands of Tubo soldiers were crying ghosts and wolves in the mountains and fields.Such a large-scale massacre of living beings, although he is a strong enemy, they all flow from the same blood, no matter how he pretends to be tough, he will become weak.Ever since the fire in Qinshan, the female military division has gritted her teeth at him.It's not because it's hostile, but because it doesn't want Xuntong to kill Ah Zhen so much.The battlefield is either life or death.Although the stewardess is smart, she is also a girl. She watched tens of thousands of her crew being burned, and vowed not to let him go.Before the army had time to put out the fire, the stewardess ordered to withdraw from Qinshan and stand firm at the border.Hearing the spy's report, Ah Zhen's heart was relieved.Congratulations to the stewardess for what she did.As soon as Qinshan was burned, the original military center became his own cemetery.If you don't retreat in time, you will send [-] Tubo soldiers to Huangquan.To be a general is a heinous crime.

Follow Liu Wanyang all the way to break the army, exhausted all means of strategy, each village is fighting for the other.The soldiers were strange, and both sides felt exhausted.Ah Zhen sat up slowly, and the sergeant outside the tent saw the military master get up, and hurried in to help him put on his armor and cloak.

"Report! Report to the military division, the commander told you to go to the central tent to discuss matters." As soon as Ah Zhen grabbed the cloak, the messenger ran over to report.

Ah Zhen is from southern Hokkien, and southern Fujian is like spring all the year round, and it has never snowed.When I came to Tubo this time, the sky in November was already so cold.Damn the weather.He walked out of the tent and tightened his shawl, muttering cursing and walking towards the middle tent.

"What's the matter?" As soon as he stepped into the central tent, he saw all the generals gathered around and discussing with serious expressions.

Seeing him coming, Liu Wanyang also said to him sullenly, "Our grain depots in Dachuhe were all burned by Tubo."

Ah Zhen was shocked, the way of marching soldiers.The soldiers and horses do not move, but the food and grass go first.The winter food of these hundreds of thousands of troops has been burned, are we going to starve our army to death in the Jinsha River?
"Bastard, the warehouses in Dachuhe are like guarding warehouses? Hundreds of thousands of military rations can't be burned all day and night. How can they be burned overnight?"

"According to the Dachuhe garrison report, the Tubo female military division led the Flying Tigers to bypass the defense line. They arrived outside the Dachuhe River at noon yesterday and dug holes under the dead wood and snow to keep warm. Tung oil. Once the city was set on fire, Cangcao realized that it was too late. Although he tried his best to put out the fire, the tung oil could not be poured out. The fire burned for several hours, and all the stored food was burned."

, In this era, there is no dry powder, no fire extinguisher, how to pour oil and water out of a burnt hole.

"Bastard, don't you know how to dig the soil?" Ah Zhen asked angrily.

"Yes, but most of the official earthenware in the city disappeared without a trace. I collected more than 60 pieces from the people, but there was nothing I could do." Ah Zhen was even more shocked after hearing this.This was obviously deliberately touched by the Flying Tigers.The purpose is to let Da Zhou soldiers watch their food being burned but unable to save it.Such a vicious scheme, I want hundreds of thousands of Dazhou soldiers to freeze to death and starve to death on the Jinsha River.

After Liu Wanyang finished speaking, all the soldiers stared straight at him with livid faces, hoping that he could come up with some way out.

Since the crown prince was robbed, the Flying Tigers haven't appeared for a while.It didn't appear again until a month ago when I was attacking Zhequ. This time the appearance was much higher and sharper than the original water rating.It seems that the stewardess must have trained hard.

He also suffered a lot from the Flying Tigers in Zhequ City.Fortunately, there was a seal team to contain it so that it didn't suffer a big loss.But there were also countless casualties.Do you want to give up on the twists and turns that were so difficult to conquer after so many soldiers of the Great Zhou Dynasty died?Is there any way not to give up?

"Where are the military rations of Tubo stored?" Ah Zhen asked.

"The capital is located in Bowo and Medog." General Zuo replied quickly.

It's not easy. Store grain in two places.And it is six or seven hundred miles deep.It seems that tit for tat is not going to work.

"How long can my army ration last?"

"All the rations will run out in less than three days." General Zuo said worriedly.

"Taiwei, retreat back to Dachuhe!" Ah Zhen clasped his fists and said.

As soon as he finished speaking, all the generals were shocked, and finally pushed nearly a thousand miles towards Tubo, with heavy casualties, but now they have to retreat.But there is no other way.Everyone was very angry.

Liu Wanyang pondered, nodded slowly with a black face and asked: "Okay, I have to withdraw."

"Taiwei, once we withdraw the Tubo soldiers will definitely press up." We can't withdraw blindly.It takes a surefire plan.Ah Zhen said.All the soldiers couldn't help but nodded.

"Does the military division have any secret plans?"

"Therefore, there is a camp left for the right general, and he ordered the right general to lead [-] soldiers to continue to set up the camp, and all the troops immediately retreated overnight. After the army withdrew five hundred miles, the right general immediately pulled out the camp and launched an attack on Zaerba. Capture the city in one day, and hold on for two days. All retreating troops only take one day's food."

Zarba?Liu Wanyang puzzled?Zarba is a small town more than 300 miles to the right of the bend.Everyone was puzzled, why did they attack this useless small city?

"Military division, why is this?"

"I won't give Tubo good fruit to eat, Taiwei can do as I want. Zaerba is very useful to us. When we replenish the army rations, I will eat all the territory of Tubo along the Yellow River." Ah Zhen had a cold face after speaking.Stewardess, I won't make it easy for you.

After a while, I saw Liu Wanyang sitting in front of the handsome man and ordering the general.All the generals should take the license plate and withdraw to arrange various affairs.Ah Zhen also retreated slowly.

When he returned to his tent, the fire inside was still burning.The two brothers and sister Xiang Shaoyun sat inside and waited for him. When they saw him coming, they quickly stood up and ran towards him: "Brother Zhen, what's going on? Are we going to retreat?"

Ah Zhen nodded, can it be done without retreating?
"Shaoyun, go and call the captains of the seals." Ah Zhen said.

Xiang Shaoyun nodded, knowing that the military situation was urgent and could not be delayed, so he hurried out.

"Ruffian, is there nothing you can do?" Xiang Qianyun followed him during this period of time, watching him lead the army in battle, and admired and admired him even more. Dare to speak boldly.My heart is extremely bitter.I scolded him as a wooden man in my heart.

"No way. Without food and grass, there is no other way." After he finished speaking, he spread his hands and shrugged, looking like I was also helpless.

Soon the captains of the seals came and clasped their fists and bowed and said in unison: "Coach!"

Ah Zhen nodded, and sat in front of the tent and ordered: "The captains of the seals, immediately go to ambush around Zaerba to investigate, and report to the right general immediately if there is any situation. If there is no movement, don't show up." Bow your head and meditate After a while, he gritted his teeth and continued: "Even if the right general is wiped out, he can't show up. Go back and report to me immediately. You must cooperate closely, don't move lightly, avoid the Tubo soldiers when you meet them, and don't fight if you meet the Flying Tigers, you know? ?”

As soon as the five seal captains said yes, they all quit the account and went to execute the order.

"Brother Zhen, why did you attack the small city of Zalba?" Xiang Shaoyun and Xiang Qianyun couldn't understand the question.

"Don't underestimate this small city. Zarba is a very good city. Golmud is on the left, and Zhezi is on the right. The top can pass through Tuo and straighten him, and the bottom can crush Achai. If we capture This Zarba will be of great help to our military position, and our big Zhou soldiers will be exhausted by us no matter whether we go straight across Tibet."

After speaking, Xiang Shaoyun and his brothers and sisters were overjoyed and said, "Really, then why didn't we fight Zaerba in the first place and marched into Zhequ?"

"In the beginning, I wanted to lay down the twists and turns, then advance to the Jinsha River, and then come back to attack these small cities. At that time, Tubo will be conquered by us from Jinsha to the south of the Yellow River." But I never expected the strength of the Flying Tigers And moved forward.

After finishing speaking, Ah Zhen gritted her teeth again and said, "The Tubo female military adviser is not an idiot, this Zaerba may have a tough battle to fight."

"How many Tubo soldiers do you think Zaerba will live in?" Xiang Qianyun asked curiously.

Ah Zhen lowered his head in thought for a while and slowly stretched out a finger.

Xiang Qianyun exclaimed: "Ten thousand?" There are 1 soldiers in this small town?

Ah Zhen shook his head and said, "At least one hundred thousand."

As soon as he finished.The two siblings gasped in shock.One hundred thousand, my God.

Xiang Shaoyun asked anxiously: "Then how many troops are there for General Right?"

"General Right has about [-] troops." Ah Zhen nodded and said.

"[-], fortunately it's not much worse." Xiang Shaoyun's face softened.

"But I only gave 5 horses." Ah Zhen said that he was not surprised and died endlessly.

"Fifty thousand? How can it be done, isn't it to die?" Xiang Qianyun stomped her feet anxiously.

"No way, if Zaerba doesn't fight now, I'm afraid there will be no chance in the future. All the rations are given to the 5 horses, and it's only enough for the vigilance for ten days."

"Na Na" Xiang Shaoyun's face was green, and he couldn't come out.

"Tell them to die, right? War is like this, and death must bring us the most effective way to die. I only need General Right to hold the enemy for three days, and only three days. I swear to take Zarba. "Ah really can't bear it, but war is cruel.

"If the female military division knew that Zaerba was under attack, she would not give up. She vowed to lead all the Tubo soldiers to support. At that time, the right general will be pinched from front to back and suffer terribly." The right general has worked hard for you, you have to stand up for me what.Ah Zhen cried silently in his heart.

Xiang Shaoyun and Xiang Qianyun's faces were as white as snow, a little whiter than the snow outside.Knowing that 5 people will all die in battle in two days, how can this kind of horror be endured. With 5 people, even if the corpses are piled up, a mountain can be piled up.

Ah Zhen patted Shaoyun on the shoulder and sat silently in front of the tent, lost in thought.

All the soldiers retreated overnight, until the evening of the next day, they retreated for nearly five hundred miles.Ah Zhen quickly stepped into the commander's tent and shouted: "Taiwei, has the military rations for Maozhou and Yazhou been delivered?"

Seeing him coming in anxiously, Liu Wanyang quickly replied, "According to the spies, he will be here soon."

Ah Zhen nodded.I thought to myself, now the right general is also advancing towards Zaerba.

"Taiwei, as soon as the food and grass arrive, we must immediately order all the soldiers to advance to Zarba to the right. If you are late, the right general will be in danger." Liu Wanyang also nodded after Ah Zhen finished speaking.

"If possible, please ask the commander to send all the soldiers stationed in Minzhou and Qinzhou to come to the rescue." As soon as Ah Zhen finished speaking, Liu Wanyang's face became worried.

"The wolves of the Liao Kingdom are also staring at the border, and they are constantly provoking at the border. They have dispatched troops from the two states, fearing that the Liao Kingdom will have an opportunity to take advantage of it."

Ah Zhen nodded after hearing this, and it is true that the soldiers and horses of these two states are not allowed to move.It was swallowed up by the Liao Kingdom before it took down Tubo Dazhou. This kind of thing that is not worth the loss really cannot be done.

"By the way, the prince's wedding is coming soon, isn't it?" This is Ah Zhen's plan. If he wants to fight against Tubo, he is afraid that the Liao Kingdom will take advantage of it. Getting married is the best way.

"Soon." Liu Wanyang nodded.

"Please ask the Taiwei to write a letter to the emperor, begging the Liao Kingdom to send troops to attack Tubo Achai. Then the land will be divided equally, and we will have a good relationship forever." Ah Zhen said anxiously.

"Here, the Liao Kingdom may not send troops easily." Liu Wanyang murmured.

Ah Zhen hopped his feet in anger, how could this ancient man be so stupid.Kaijie said: "Of course the Liao Kingdom will not send troops, and Achai is an important military location for us to fight against the Liao Kingdom in the future. It must not fall into the hands of the Liao Kingdom. The princess is getting married soon. Although they will laugh at us, they will not attack us. They will not send troops." Halfway through the speech, Liu Wanyang understood, and shouted happily: "I will give the emperor advice immediately." After finishing speaking, hurry up Go into your inner tent.

After waiting for a long time, when night fell, the food and grass also arrived.

"Taiwei, hurry up and order all the soldiers to go out and march into Zalba overnight after eating their fill." Ah Zhen anxiously said to Liu Wanyang.

"Okay, let's pass on the order. Order the generals to finish their meal and march to Zaerba."

Ah Zhen didn't have time to eat, so he hurriedly set off after all the soldiers had finished eating. Hundreds of thousands of soldiers marched towards Zaerba in a mighty manner.

Three days later in the morning, it was just dawn.The army marched to the Zaerba Plain to secure the village.

"Marshal, Marshal" just set up the stronghold, the right general, with his military uniform torn and covered in blood, rushed into the big tent and knelt down on the ground, weeping in pain.

"General You please get up quickly, how is the military situation?" Liu Wanyang quickly stepped off the commander's platform to help him up.

"Commander, the last general is useless. The soldiers suffered heavy casualties after attacking Zarba for a long time. There are only less than [-] soldiers left from the [-] soldiers." After speaking, his hands dropped to the ground, crying in pain.

All the generals were shocked after hearing this, and Liu Wanyang asked anxiously: "Why is there only [-] left from [-]? Hurry up and report."

yes!The right general wiped away his tears and said: "At the end of the second day, I will arrive at Zaerba. Although the city of Zaerba is small, it is tens of feet high. The general has repeatedly stepped forward to challenge, but the defender of Zaerba can't hold on. In the evening Very soon, the last general ordered a strong attack. Unexpectedly, there were many people in the small town of Zaerba, and they were fully prepared. Our army suffered heavy losses in this battle. It was not until the second day that the last general ordered to withdraw the troops, but they had less than four hours of recuperation. Suddenly, a Tubo army appeared from the west, totaling more than [-] people. They attacked our village at noon, and all the soldiers defended it with blood, but "General You burst into tears after speaking.

The generals were shocked, they didn't expect that the small town of Zarba would be so difficult.With a livid face, he stared at Ah Zhen with deep eyes.

Ah Zhen closed his eyes, which he had expected a long time ago.How could the female military division give up such an important military location so easily.

He opened his eyes slowly and said: "You General, you don't have to blame yourself, I had expected this a long time ago, you can hold on until our army arrives, it is already a credit."

As soon as Ah Zhen finished speaking, everyone was shocked. The military adviser had already expected why he had just asked him to come to die.For a moment, all dissatisfied eyes shot straight at him.

"Everyone, please take a look." Ah Zhen stood up and walked to the handsome table, and all the generals surrounded him.

"This is Zaerba." He pointed to Zaerba City on the map with his finger.

"Do you see anything?" Ah Zhen asked slowly.The generals looked at me and at you, and they shook their heads after not knowing what they could see.

"Zalba is a good place. Golmud is connected to the left, and the right is bent. It can cross Tuo and Danata from the top, and attack Achai from the bottom." Ah Zhen gestured with his finger on the map.

"If we all retreat to the Dadu River and then turn around and march towards Zalba, we will lose our fighting chance. As soon as our entire army retreats, the Tupan Jinsha army will press up, and the general on the right will be transferred to the right to attack Zalba. Only then will our army be able to survive With enough time to replenish food and grass, the right general will attack the Zarba Jinsha Tubo army and vows to defend Zarba first, and when my army arrives, as long as the right general can hold on, the opportunity to fight is still there." Ah Zhen said solemnly.The generals were shocked when they heard what he said, they didn't expect that the small town of Zaerba was so important.The strategist's strategy is to take the overall situation into consideration.

"Our battlefield has now shifted from Jinsha to Zalba. In this way, despite the setbacks, we will get the opportunity first. I will wipe out the Tubo soldiers at Zalba." On the map of the handsome table.

"Don't worry, I promise I won't let your soldiers die in vain." Ah Zhen patted the right general on the shoulder and whispered.

Seeing that he was so determined, everyone respected, admired and horrified him in their hearts.It can push tens of thousands of soldiers into the abyss of death in an instant, and it can draw out such a strategy of heaven and man.They didn't dare to make a sound.

"Order all the soldiers to rest where they are, and go to the commander's account at Yinshi tomorrow to listen to orders. I want to fight the Tubo army on the plain." Ah Zhen shouted sullenly.All the generals answered yes and withdrew.

Ah Zhen walked out of the tent, staring at the clear sky in a daze.Mr. Zhuge Liang, my younger brother will borrow your art of war tomorrow, so don't be offended.
