The camp outside Xinping City has been set up, with a standard perimeter of three towers and one tower.
The Silver Spear Left Camp and the Huangtou Army's 5,000 men were located in the south of the city, backed by the Sanggan River.
Chenliu's 3,560 soldiers were stationed in the west of the city, and the Yi Congjun's 3,000 cavalry were also stationed here.
Five thousand Huangtou troops were stationed in the east of the city, also backed by the Sanggan River - the water and the Sanggan River meet south of Xinping, and then turn and flow to the northeast.
The Yuju tribe had five thousand Xianbei troops, and the Wuhuan cavalry also garrisoned in the northeast of the city.
The more than 10,000 Wuhuan cavalry who gathered one after another on the road were led by their respective troops and patrolled in the wild to protect the outside.
It is said that they are surrounded by three towers, but it is difficult to run away like this. There are too many cavalry in the Jin army.
On June 19, Wang Queer left the Chinese army camp and inspected various places.
At thirty-six years old, he is in the golden age of a senior general.
After twenty years of fighting, he started as a small soldier and has surprisingly rich experience. If he had not died young, he could have fought for the country for another twenty years and left a name in history.
Generally speaking, historians will regularly visit major civil and military officers to collect historical materials. The oral materials of the parties are the most important source and will be embellished to a certain extent. Therefore, the strength described in history books will generally be much higher than the actual abilities of civil and military officials.
If you are still willing to spend money, it is not impossible to help you add drama and polish. After all, the history of later dynasties is based on various materials recorded in previous dynasties - if they are not lost.
Wang Que'er is still very interested in leaving a name in history, and has been thinking more and more about this kind of thing in recent years - some people want fame, others are interested in profit, and Wang Que'er is the former.
There are not many wars that can earn such a great reputation, and the attack on Tuoba Xianbei is one of them.
As for attacking Jiangdong or Shu, he has no interest, and others almost have the same view.
There is no other reason. A name like Jianye does not sound as attractive as Pingcheng or Shengle.
There is no Yinshan in Jiangdong, and Henan makes his blood boil.
Listening to Sima Rui, Wang Dao and others can make people sleepy, but grassland leaders like Tuoba, Murong, and Yuwen who can mobilize overwhelming metro cavalry can make him energetic and go all out.
To put it bluntly, ordinary people in the Central Plains may be more interested in Sima Rui, Director Wang and the like, but as a warrior, he clearly knows what is the greater challenge.
"There is something new to teach in martial arts." Wang Que'er stood by the Masanggan River and said: "From Guangwu to Xinping, it is more than 200 miles, and to Pingcheng, it is more than 300 miles. The scenery in the meantime,
It’s very different from the Central Plains.”
"These are the old places of the Qin and Han Dynasties. Although the clouds are different, there are still some remnants of the Mid-Xia Dynasty that can be found." Yu Ze (the third son of Yu Gun), the supervisor of the General's Mansion, said with a smile: "After Pingcheng and go north, that is the real boundless grassland.
There are only a few smokey villages, so desolate that it makes people cry."
To put it bluntly, the area south of Pingcheng is suitable for both herding and farming. During the Qin and Han Dynasties, people vigorously immigrated to the border area and established counties.
Further north of Pingcheng, you may still be able to farm, but the conditions are much worse than those south of Pingcheng and north of Yanmenguan.
As for the north of Yinshan Mountain, the conditions are even worse. There are only a few places where farming can be done, and the whole area is mainly used for grazing.
The Central Plains Dynasty could defeat it, but they really couldn't occupy it - or no one thought about occupying it. Anyway, it was impossible to occupy it with the methods of the Qin and Han Dynasties, unless someone came up with a new method.
"In this battle, your Majesty deserves the most credit." Wang Queer said, facing the southwest, cupping his hands.
Yu Ze is a bit stupid, are you like this?
Wang Que'er didn't care what Yu Ze was thinking, he just said: "How can it be so easy to fight two to three hundred miles deep into the enemy's territory? If the king hadn't recruited surrender and rebels from behind, and caused the miscellaneous people from all the counties to come to surrender, I would definitely be here at this moment.
Can’t get to Xinping.”
Yu Ze had to admit that this made sense.
The most dangerous part of going deep into enemy territory is the back route.
Apart from anything else, what would you do if the 60,000 to 70,000 Wuhuan people who have taken refuge with Wang and her son now turned their weapons and intercepted your food routes, hunted down your messengers, and even penetrated deep into your rear areas to wreak havoc? What would you do?
How much effort does it take to clean them one by one?
But King Liang made them his own, at least they would not cause trouble and could help you expel and hunt the enemy's rangers. Once they entered and exited, the gap was huge.
If this war is ultimately won, it will be due to the original decision.
"General Wang, Wang's mother and son have surrendered tens of thousands of people, most of whom are Wuhuan in Xingbei. What will be done with them in the future? Will these places be regarded as the basis for restoring the country?" Yu Ze took a few steps closer and asked in a low voice.
Wang Queer smiled mysteriously and did not answer.
Is it possible? Impossible.
As the favorite disciple of King Liang, he knew many unknown secrets. For example, King Liang wanted to establish two counties in Mayi and Yunzhong in Xingbei.
Maybe it's Jisi County, because there are too many barbarians there, but they will definitely not be given to Shiyiqian. It's pretty much the same north of Pingcheng.
Want territory? Go grab it yourself, and King Liang can give you a name.
"Supervisor, please don't ask too many questions." Wang Que'er said, "There are some confidential matters that may cause turmoil if leaked."
When Yu Ze heard this, he felt a little unhappy.
However, he quickly adjusted his mood. Wang Queer's words were equivalent to answering him, so naturally he would not ask any more questions.
He looked up and looked at the south bank of Sanggan River, where an earthen city was being built.
Most of the people who built the city were old, weak, women and children from Wuhuan, who had to work very hard to cut wood and carry soil.
I heard that the Wang family was already looking for craftsmen to make official seals. They appointed Wang Feng and Changsun Rui (Baba Rui) as the assistant ministers on the left and right, and Liu Lugu and Yu Ju as the wise kings on the left and right. They also appointed various ministers to send their sons and nephews.
Shi Shi Yi Qian.
He had heard what this woman was like before. She had made great progress in recent times, and it was almost impossible to tell that she was just a nineteen-year-old woman.
If that doesn't work, I simply suggest that the king kill her, so as not to become a disaster in the future, and also to avoid causing trouble for the younger sister. After all, the king of Liang is prone to old habits.
****
In Xinping City, in the mansion where Tuoba Liuxiu once lived, Wang Changzheng, the head of the Wang family in Guangning, had a secret conversation with Pu Gulu.
"You have also seen the situation today. The generals are old and weak, and it is difficult to be a strong soldier of the Liang Kingdom. These people in the city are half-hearted. Do you think they can fight to the death for you?" Wang Chang seemed not to worry about his own safety at all, walking around the room.
, talked eloquently: "The defenders of the city are Wuhuan and Jin. It is self-evident where they want to go. In the future, a large army will attack the city and everything will be burned. Wouldn't it be a pity?"
Pu Gulu's face didn't look very good, he just said: "There are only a few things you need to do if you want me to surrender."
"But it's okay to talk." Wang Chang said confidently.
"First, there are tens of thousands of old, weak, women and children in the general tribe who have moved to other places to graze. They must not be harmed or dispersed at will."
"Okay." Wang Chang replied.
"Secondly, after Shi Yiqian's restoration, if we offer sacrifices to the gods, no matter whether we offer sacrifices to the gods with ten surnames or seven surnames, Pu's name will still be listed on the altar."
"good."
"Thirdly, if Xinping can't give it, I need a piece of good land for pasture."
"good."
"Fourth, what kind of official system does Ke Dun plan to use? The old Xianbei custom or the Jin official system? If it is the Jin system, give me a general guard. If the Xianbei old custom is similar, there can be a few more people, and I will be one of them. If possible
, you can send an envoy to Luoyang to ask for me a gold seal like the Marquis of Guiyi, but even if it doesn't work, I have to have a good-natured lieutenant general with a silver seal."
After speaking, he looked at Wang Chang.
Wang Chang didn't dare to make the decision on this matter and was a little annoyed.
Pu Gulu really didn’t know what to do, how long has it been, and he still opened his mouth like a fucking lion.
I haven't fulfilled my full official position yet, and am still running around as a family leader. How dare you make so many demands?
"This article is a bit too much." Wang Chang felt jealous and said bluntly: "I'm afraid you don't know who all the Wuhuan people in the city listen to! But when Dun arrives, all the Wuhuan tribes will worship you. I'm afraid they will take your head.
offer."
Pu Gulu slapped the table hard and said angrily: "Xinping is a famous town, it can be made the capital. I offer it for nothing, but I don't give you any benefits. Is it ridiculous?"
Wang Chang was just about to get angry, but suddenly he found that Pu Gulu's eyes seemed to have a bit of cunning, and he immediately snorted coldly and said: "That's all, you will surrender or not."
Pu Gulu looked at Wang Chang quietly, his eyes seemed very dangerous, and his hand slowly touched the handle of the knife at his waist.
Although Wang Chang was sure that this person didn't dare to do anything, his heart still jumped when he saw his actions. However, he held on and looked at Pu Gulu without giving in.
After a long time, Pu Gulu suddenly smiled, and the tense atmosphere in the room suddenly subsided a lot.
He clapped his hands, and after a while, several people came in, carrying two large boxes.
Pu Gulu opened it himself and saw many gold and silver objects placed inside.
Just listen to him saying: "This is what Sima Teng rewarded Da Shanyu (Tuoba Yiyuan) in the past. As long as you run around in the middle, it will all be yours. How about it?"
Wang Chang swallowed secretly, looked away with difficulty, and shook his head.
When Pu Gulu saw that he refused to eat, he was a little unhappy and scolded: "I am also thinking about Ke Dun and the prince. Why are there so many mothers-in-law in the eagle on the grassland? If you accept these two boxes of things, it is me Pu Gulu
Lu’s friend, if you don’t accept me, I won’t be able to serve you with peace of mind.”
"I really can't help." Wang Chang's tone was a little gentle, but he still refused.
Pu Gulu stared at him carefully for a long time, and found that Wang Chang was really unwilling. He sighed and said: "Forget it, I won't embarrass you. The gold and silver are still yours, just treat it as a friend."
Wang Chang breathed a sigh of relief and looked very moved.
"Then let's change the conditions." Pu Gulu said again: "I surrender to Ke Dun, prince, but not Shao Xun. Shao soldiers are not allowed to enter Xinping City and can only be stationed outside. I can send people to send some food, grass and cattle.
Sheep labor the army.”
When Wang Chang heard this, he was very embarrassed.
When Pu Gulu saw this, he was so angry that he cursed: "Why don't you know what's going on? Do you think I'm really greedy for life and afraid of death? To tell you the truth, if it weren't for Ketun and Shi Yiqian was here, I would rather run away than
I will surrender. I don't let Shao Bing enter the city for the sake of Shi Yiqian. Does the prince really want to live under someone else's roof for the rest of his life? The Dai Kingdom is the Dai Kingdom of the Tuoba family, not the Shao family. Shi Yijian is not strong yet, and he should be independent.
If he doesn't have this intention, if Kedun doesn't have this plan, I will go to Yihuai myself. If Yihuai doesn't have the ambition, I will go far away to the west of Hexi and never suffer this bird spirit again."
If you go to Hexi, you will join the Tufa tribe, which is a force founded by the descendants of Tuoba Pigu (the eldest brother of Tuoba Liwei).
As far as Wang Chang is concerned, of course he doesn't want to be dependent on others.
Recently, he had also secretly suggested to Ke Dun that she and Shao Xunxu should be in peace with each other until Shi Yiqian returned to the country and became more powerful, before breaking away from his control.
Shao Xun is already thirty-seven years old. In a dozen years, he will enter the twilight years of his life. By then, Shi Yiqian may have just turned 20. He is an extremely ambitious age, and the opportunity is not small.
But Ke Dun was actually a little scared, and seemed to feel a little bit guilty, so he never answered him directly.
This happened!
Wang Chang retracted his thoughts and said: "Pugulu, please stop messing around with me. I can make the decision on the first three items. I can't make the decision about the official position or the gold seal. If you are lucky, you may be the one to get it. If you are not lucky, you can only accept it."
Give it up. That's it. If you don't agree, you can kill me and show your intention to the whole city."
Pu Gulu didn't even look at him, snorted coldly and walked away.
Chapter completed!
