Chapter 229: Asking for help
Around the New Year, the Anqing defenders and the Tuotuo tribe were in trouble with food and grass. Compared with Anqing, Tuotuo was under greater pressure. Not only did he have more people, but he also had a large number of horses, and he was in the Shilipu camp.
After being burned by Yun Zhao and others, criticism in the army rose everywhere. Although it was forcibly suppressed, an indisputable fact is that if food and grass are not brought, Tuotuo's prestige will decline step by step.
If Guo Luobu himself was dissatisfied with Tuotuo, then Tuotuo would have done his best.
Tuotuo personally went to Wuda camp and knelt outside Wuda camp for several hours before he received tens of thousands of kilograms of food and grass. This was like a drop in the bucket for an army of more than 30,000 people. In the end, it was still elegant.
Erdan coordinated with the new Luzhou magistrate and former Lucheng lord Bo Wu Yan. Wu Yan collected 100,000 kilograms of food and grass for Tuotuo in Luzhou to solve the urgent problem, which made Tuotuo very grateful to Yaldan.
But this little food and grass is not enough to make Tuotuo launch a large-scale attack on Anqing. Once a war begins, the war horses must be eaten well and the soldiers must be filled. This little food and grass is obviously not enough to do it. If Anqing is captured,
I can also get some rewards from Wuda and get food and grass for emergency response. Once I can't fight, it will be miserable. I have no shame to ask for Yardan. Yardan is also the woman I like, if
Once he went to ask her, Tutuo felt that his self-esteem could not stand it. And Tutuo also knew that his competitor Jamuha and Tienig had a deeper background than him, more wealth, and more valued by Wuda.
If you can't do something alone, why should Yaldan look down on himself?
He can only maintain the status quo. He hopes that after this difficult winter, the overall environment will be better after Wuda conquered Tanzhou. Of course, Tutuo will not sit still and wait for death. His army began to sweep the outside world more deeply
, plunder civilians, no matter how small the mosquitoes are, they are still meat!
Yun Zhao did not have the power to launch an attack at this time. Now, except for the soldiers on duty, the soldiers can have a dry meal, and they drink porridge every day. Their faces turned green and they had no strength to fight.
.Now even routine training has been cancelled. The two sides are in a stalemate.
"Boss, Guo Feng is here." Yan Xiaoyi strode into the study room of the side hall of the town general's mansion in Anqing City, behind him. Two soldiers were wearing ragged clothes, swaying their feet, with their faces and hands.
The man with frostbite walked in.
"Guo Feng!" Yun Zhao stood up, "Thank you for your hard work!" Move to put Guo Feng on the chair aside, poured a cup of hot water from the copper jar on the firewood in the corner of the house, and handed it to Guo Feng.
*..* in your hands! Book.*
"Thank you, General Yun." Guo Feng took the hot water and held it in his hand.
"Go and invite Mr. Yao to come and see Guo Feng!" Yun Zhao continued.
"General Yun, no, I'm just tired. Just take a little hot water and take a rest." Guo Feng said gratefully.
"No, I must ask Mr. Yao. Look at the frostbite on your face and hands, and feet are bound to be indispensable. If it is not treated in time, it will easily lead to freezing." Yun Zhao waved his hand and a soldier ran out immediately.
"General Yun, this time I went to Tanzhou and stayed there for almost a month. The previous rumors were true. Sima Ren lost tens of thousands of soldiers and retreated to Luning. Tanzhou City has been led by the Mongolians, and now it is still
Da has moved into the prefect of Tanzhou, and I have been lingering in Tanzhou for several days. When I found out that the Mongolians are now preparing to officially establish the country, Tanzhou will be their capital."
Yun Zhao spat. "Bastard, this is clearly arguing with Dayue and competing for the world."
"You went to Luning again?"
"Yes, Yao Meng and other generals' families are no longer in Tanzhou City, so I went to Lu Ning, but there, I found out something amazing."
“What is it?”
"I don't know what Sima Ren used. The court completely put the responsibility for the defeat in Tanzhou this time on the border troops of Lucheng. It lied that the border troops of Lucheng were afraid of the enemy and abandoned Yumen Pass, causing the Mongolian army to march straight into Tan.
The state caught off guard and suffered a great loss. When I left, Lu Ning had received an urgent document of 800 miles from the court. The court's disposal opinions had already been put down. Sima Ren copied hundreds of copies of the imperial decree and posted them in Lu
In the entire territory of Ning, the people of Luning, including the people of Tanzhou who fled to Luning, hate the Lucheng border army to the core. I think that if a Lucheng border army appears in front of them, they will definitely be
He can eat his flesh and sleep his skin."
Yan Xiaoyi had no good feelings for the border troops in Lucheng, but when he heard this, he still said shocked: "Can this still be like this? Is this okay?"
Yun Zhao said calmly, "The black and white are the strengths of these people, and there is not a good thing in the Sima family. Guo Feng, tell me, how should the court deal with General Yao and the others?"
"The announcement stated that although Yao Meng and others died in battle, they were still unforgivable. Therefore, they were punished and their family members. Now General Qu Lu's son, General Yao Meng's wife and children, and General Wang Zhuang's wife and children have all been deprived of officers.
The treatment of the family was sent to the washing room, kitchen and other places in the military camp to do some heavy work. The worst thing was General Ding Jian's family. Ding Jian's wife Li was about to give birth, but suddenly encountered a major change. In advance
The birth was a difficult birth. The Tanzhou soldiers guarding him were not allowed to hire doctors and Wenpo. Although the child was born, Li died. Mr. Li was implicated and finally brought to Huining to all his wealth was confiscated.
, even after being hit, he went crazy. Mr. Li's wife hung a rope on it, and it was a pity that newborn baby, who had lost three relatives as soon as he opened his eyes."
"Bastard, what the hell is this? The Sima family's beasts." Yan Xiaoyi was furious. "Is there any reason for this? I wonder if Yao Meng and the others know about this, and I wonder if they will go crazy?
Being me, you will definitely go crazy!”
Yun Zhao clenched his fists and made a sound, "Where is that baby dead after losing his relatives?"
"Fortunately, there is a loyal old servant in the Li family who begged along the street with this baby in his arms, but because the baby's father is Ding Jian, a general of the Lucheng border army, even if he begs, he is often humiliated and lives a very difficult life.
, When I left, I was still alive, and I don’t know if I could survive!”
"Guo Feng, you can take care of your injuries for a few days, rest for two days, and then work harder, and you have to go to Huining. Xiao Yi, this time, you will go too, choose a group of elite soldiers and sneak into Luning
, rescue Yao Meng and his family and bring them to Anqing." Yun Zhao walked back to the fire and sat down, "Although we have a gap with Yao Meng and the others, they are also heroes who fight against the Mongolian army.
, you can't let the heroes bleed or cry."
"Okay!" Yan Xiaoyi nodded, "Boss, aren't we thinking about how to annex the border troops of Lucheng? This is a good opportunity."
"Let's rescue the person first!" Yun Zhao waved his hand.
Quan Yifeng opened her eyes faintly, feeling her hands and feet numb, and she almost lost consciousness. She struggled for a few times before she could barely sit up, took out a small wine pot from her arms, shook it, and raised her neck.
, drank all the few sips of wine left in it, took out a few pieces of frozen jerky, and bitten it hard, almost swallowed it whole, rubbing its legs with both hands,
Half an hour later, he struggled to stand up, picked up a branch from the side as a crutch, and walked forward with difficulty.
Quan Yifeng and his group were sent by Yun Zhao from Anqing to Yizhou for help. The group of twelve people were left. When they arrived here, only Quan Yifeng was left. The others were already dead in Bayan.
On that trail in the Kara Mountains.
The sky was getting darker, and as the sky was getting darker, Quan Yifeng felt that all her strength had been taken away, and the stars in front of her were scattered, and she could fall down at any time.
"I can't fall down. Anqing, Shibao, and Lucheng border troops, the life and death of nearly 8,000 people are all tied to me. If I can't go to Yizhou, there will be no rescue materials to be transported to Anqing. I will definitely
We must hold on." Quan Yifeng shouted loudly in his heart, encouraging himself to move forward step by step.
A light appeared in front of me. Although it was weak, in Quan Yifeng's eyes, it was like seeing a dazzling sun. He rubbed his eyes desperately. After confirming that it was not that he had hallucinations, Quan Yifeng had no
The legs of some strength seemed to be full of strength in an instant. He threw away the crutch and ran towards the light desperately, shouting loudly while running, but when the sound came out, Quan Yifeng was shocked to find out,
My own voice is almost the same as a kitten.
This is already a Fenghuang Mountain Outpost in Yizhou. There was a large-scale logistics base and military camp in the past. However, as decades passed, it has long been abandoned. The former base and military camp have long been dilapidated. Now
Only one troop was left, and a small team of ten people was stationed here. A few years ago, I went to Anqing to send supplies. It was lively for a while, but with the advent of winter, these people also retreated and left this one.
Several people were on duty and stood guard.
Ten people lived in this remote place. Except for the wolf howling and tiger roaring, they could hardly hear the voices. As soon as it was dark, all the soldiers entered the house, closed the door, drank soju and roasted firewood, and several soldiers went to the house.
Start rolling dice to gamble to pass the boring time.
"Boss, it's your turn. You'll be a farmer this time!" A soldier smiled and swept the copper coins on the table in front of him, pushing the dice cup to a thin man.
"Damn, I don't believe you are so lucky today, and you even notified me?" The man gritted his teeth, waved the dice cup desperately, and put it on the table with a snap, "Bet the bet, bet there is no regrets!"
Several soldiers made bets respectively, but they were of different sizes. "Open, open!" The soldiers shouted in unison.
The man was about to remove the dice cup and was halfway through, but suddenly stopped and listened with a glance, "It seems that someone is outside!"
The soldiers all laughed, "This ghost place, at this time, someone comes, head, open, open!" Everyone shouted.
Before he finished speaking, the wooden door suddenly made a bang, as if a heavy object hit the door. The room immediately became quiet. Several soldiers raised their swords from the bench, rushed to the door, and carefully opened the room.
Door.
