Chapter 652 Seizing Troops
Chapter 652: Seizing Troops (Third Update)
"Bei Yan's sudden rise of troops has actually been traced for a long time. In the past two years, Bei Yan has been secretly amassing wealth. A mysterious person provided Bei Yan with a steady stream of wealth, so Bei Yan dared to raise troops wantonly."
"Mysterious man?"
Su Xiaoxiao touched her chin. If she hadn't kept all the gold from the White Lotus Sect, she would have thought that the White Lotus Sect was sending military pay to Beiyan behind her back.
She said thoughtfully: "Someone wants to start a war between Da Zhou and Bei Yan? The purpose? A snipe and a clam competing to make a profit for the fisherman?"
Su Mo nodded: "This possibility cannot be ruled out."
Su Xiaoxiao pondered: "Beiyan kept it a secret. We all thought that Beiyan was so courageous because he was siding with the Western Jin Dynasty. But if it has been going on for two years, then it has nothing to do with siding with the Western Jin Dynasty. No, it still has something to do with it.
. In order to conceal the truth, they deliberately pretended to be in the lap of the Western Jin Dynasty. They not only wanted to please the Western Jin Dynasty emperor, but also sent Princess Beiyan to the Western Jin Dynasty to get married. This made us feel that Beiyan's waist was hardened because of the Western Jin Dynasty.
Support Beiyan."
In this way, everything Beiyan did would be traceable.
Su Mo paused for a moment: "It's true that he wanted to hide the origin of his wealth, and it's true that he wanted to get close to the big tree of the Western Jin Dynasty. Beiyan probably also understood that what he was doing was seeking skin from a tiger. After the Great Zhou Dynasty was solved, in order to prevent the other party from counterattack, he first
The Western Jin Dynasty pulled them into their own camp."
"Why can't it be the Western Jin Dynasty?" Qin Canglan.
"It's possible." Su Mo looked at his sister, "Have you ever met the Emperor of the Western Jin Dynasty? How is he like?"
Su Xiaoxiao recalled and shook his head: "I can't tell clearly, I just know that he is a person who cherishes talents. I don't think it is the Western Jin Dynasty. Wei Qing is the counselor of the Western Jin Dynasty. Every move of the Western Jin Dynasty cannot be hidden from him, and he will not give it to Bei Yan."
Provide financial support.”
Su Mo nodded: "No matter what, Beiyan's ambition must be eliminated."
Regarding this point, Su Xiaoxiao agreed very much.
Beiyan killed so many Wei family men, maimed so many Dazhou soldiers, burned, killed and plundered countless border people. All the accounts must be settled!
Qin Canglan looked at Su Mo: "You said you found two pieces of news. What is the second piece of news?"
Su Mo said sternly: "Helian Ye has assembled a hundred thousand troops in Fengcheng."
Su Xiaoxiao wondered: "Didn't Helianye go to Wuzhen? We heard it with our own ears that night."
Su Mo said: "Wuzhen is a fake news released by He Lian Ye. There is indeed a He Lian Ye there, but he is a substitute arranged by him."
Su Xiaoxiao touched her chin: "Wei Ting is going to miss out? If there is an army of 100,000, will Broken Beiguan be in trouble?"
Su Mo would unconsciously lower his voice when talking to her: "Speaking of this, there is good news. Heavy snow has blocked the mountains outside Fengcheng, blocking the way of a hundred thousand troops. They will not be able to come to Suibei Pass for the time being."
Qin Canglan took out the map and spread it out on the table.
He pointed to a mountain forest outside the south gate of Wengcheng: "Beiyan camped here. Now the leader of Beiyan is Tuoba Lie. He brought 100,000 troops, of which 20,000 were those who besieged Zi Town a few days ago.
, being little naked
The Shadow Army killed 10,000 people, and more than 8,000 people were left to flee. Once these 8,000-plus troops were combined with Tuoba Lie's forces, there would be an army of 90,000 people. If Helian Ye's was also included... that would be almost 20,000 troops.
Ten thousand troops."
Su Xiaoxiao looked at the map and asked, "Grandpa, how many troops do we have?"
Qin Canglan said: "Your Red Shadow Army is 10,000. Including Mo'er's troops in Zizhen City, the total is 10,000. Plus the 20,000 Qin Family Army who is about to arrive, the total is 40,000."
Su Xiaoxiao asked again: "How many troops does Leng Kui have?"
Qin Canglan frowned and said: "Fifty thousand, but he can't count on it. He will never take the initiative to start a war with Beiyan."
It would be nice if Leng Kui didn't turn around and hit his own people.
Su Xiaoxiao crossed his arms and said hehe: "The upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked. Emperor Jingxuan also had this kind of virtue. He is as ruthless as he is to deal with the Nanyang King and his family, and he is as cowardly as he is to deal with Beiyan."
"Generalissimo!"
Liu Renlue's anxious voice sounded outside the camp.
"Come in." Qin Canglan said.
Liu Ren entered with a small piece of paper, bowed his hands to the three of them, came to Qin Canglan, and said with a complex expression: "I just received a message from Fei Ge, and the Qin family army encountered an avalanche near Jia County."
"What are the casualties?" Qin Canglan asked.
Liu Rendao: "General Tong Ke discovered it in time and led his army to avoid it. There were not many casualties. General Tong Ke himself was slightly injured trying to save his horse."
Su Xiaoxiao asked: "Do they have anything to eat?"
Liu Ren was stunned for a moment and said, "Yes, he brought food and grass."
Liu Ren handed Qin Canglan the note sent by a flying pigeon from the Qin family army.
After Qin Canglan read it, he gave it to Su Xiaoxiao and Su Mo.
After the two of them finished reading, they fell silent in unison.
Just now, they were rejoicing that Helianye's army was trapped in the mountains and could not get through, but then their reinforcements also encountered heavy snow and the mountains were blocked. This really made people don't know what to say.
Su Mo stared hard and said, "It looks like they will be trapped for a few days."
Qin Canglan looked at the map again: "Our plan is going to change."
We can't just wait for the Qin family's army to come, because Helianye's 100,000-strong army is also working hard to get out of the mountain. Maybe they won't wait for the Qin family's army, but Helianye's 100,000-strong army first.
Su Xiaoxiao pointed to Wengcheng on the map: "The only one with troops now is Leng Kui."
Qin Canglan nodded: "We can only capture Leng Kui's troops."
These troops are not so easy to seize. After all, they are direct descendants of Leng Kui. But no matter how easy it is to seize, we must seize them. Life and death come first, and the people follow. They cannot become Bei Yan's weak dogs.
"Xiao Xiao, your Red Shadow Army will be the main force against Leng Kui. You will follow me to Wengcheng in a moment."
"good!"
"Liu Ren, I will leave you six thousand troops to guard Zi Town."
"yes!"
"Mo'er, who among you or Jing Yi will go to Jia County?"
Jing Yi walked in: "Su Mo, go."
Su Mo: "Guess the game?"
Su Mo lost.
Su Mo looked at Qin Canglan with resentment: "Uncle, why don't you go to Jia County?"
He wanted to attack Leng Kui with his sister.
Qin Canglan: "..."
In the end, the Five Tigers were forced to fly to Jia County as a working bird.
The five tigers were so furry that they flapped their little wings until they started to smoke.
I may not be a human, but you are real dogs!
Leng Kui was not trustworthy. In order to prevent him from collaborating with Beiyan, Qin Canglan and Su Mo took a detour with four thousand troops to the south gate of Wengcheng and ambush in the mountain cols on both sides.
The Northern Yan army was stationed ten miles away.
Su Xiaoxiao and Jing Yi came to the city with ten thousand red shadow troops and knocked on the east gate of Wengcheng.
"Who is coming?"
On top of the city tower, archers were all aiming at Su Xiaoxiao's army.
Su Xiaoxiao was riding on a horse, the cold wind was blowing on her brows, her expression was as calm as snow: "I want to see Leng Kui."
The guard general who just spoke sneered: "Who do you think you are? How dare you call the general by his first name! Are you the rebels from Wancheng? Su Mo is such a coward! Even a bunch of rebels are just like bandits.
It can’t be wiped out! Forget it! If it falls into the hands of our brothers today, your good days are over! Come on! Shoot arrows for me!”
He gave the order, and arrows rained down from the sky like waterfalls, shooting towards Su Xiaoxiao's army of red shadows.
However, just as they were about to turn the army into hedgehogs, the army raised their shields in a well-trained manner, and their uniform movements seemed to have been practiced hundreds of thousands of times. In just an instant, they formed an unbreakable iron wall.
Clang clang clang!
The rain of arrows fell on the shield, making a clanging sound, but the army under the shield was unscathed.
The guard was startled.
How could there be such a terrible defense? Not even a single arrow was hit?
Wei Xun shouted provocatively: "Thank you for borrowing the arrows! I'm just worried that I have no use for them!"
The guard's body shook, and he pointed at Su Xiaoxiao and said, "Shoot her! Shoot her! I'll do it myself!"
He snatched a soldier's bow and arrows, pointed it at Su Xiaoxiao and drew the full bow.
However, before he could let go of the bow string, Jing Yi flew up, picked up a spear in the soldier's hand with his toes, caught it with his bare hands in mid-air, flipped in the air, and shot towards the guard, killing his whole body.
Pierced and shot flying nails on the wall behind him!
Babies, remember to vote for the soldiers (military pay). See you tomorrow.
