The Qili army can arrive within three days. It is simply a fantasy to evacuate all the people in Hegu's tents to the mountain in just three days.
Although He Gu's territory is not as vast as the Zhen Yu tribe, it is still one of the three tribes in Modong. Many remote tribes cannot even rush to notify them within three days.
He Gu's main troops are all elites selected from each tent. If he retreats to the mountains and his family is abandoned, it will naturally cause the morale of the army to fluctuate, and it is even possible to cause a mutiny.
The most important thing is as Qin Xiao said, although Tieshan is a treasure, it is also a rocky mountain. There is no vegetation on the mountain, and there are only inedible mineral deposits. If Tie Han is really determined to level He Gu, then Tieshan will be destroyed.
A siege lasting a year and a half is not impossible.
After all, most of the tribes in Monan were kneeling at Tie Han's feet and had abundant supplies. As long as Tie Han was determined to besiege Tieshan, Qili did not have to worry about insufficient logistical supplies.
"According to what you say, what should we do?" The man who proposed to retreat to Tieshan stared at Qin Xiao and asked.
Qin Xiao looked serious and said: "This is a matter of life and death for your ministry. As an outsider, I shouldn't talk too much. But since you asked, I will just tell you what I said. Qili's tens of thousands of troops came to kill, and there was a huge disparity in strength between He Gu and him.
If you have a choice, it is just to evacuate to avoid Qili, or to make up your mind to fight. But although the desert is huge, where can He Gu withdraw to? Are you willing to leave your homeland and withdraw? If you don't withdraw, you will have to fight with
Since we have decided to fight Qili, we must have the belief that we will win." After a pause, he sighed: "I know that He Guren has a strong character, but this time there is such a disparity in strength that people will inevitably feel a little panicked.
I have walked around the camp in the past two days, and I can see that everyone's morale is low, and they all feel that they cannot be the enemy of the Wolf Cavalry."
Everyone present looked solemn. After all, as leaders of various accounts, they all lacked confidence, let alone ordinary tribesmen.
"Increasing morale and giving everyone the confidence to win is what you must do now." Qin Xiao looked around at the crowd and said slowly: "Since the wolf cavalry killed that night abandoned their helmets, it proves that they are not invincible.
.We are united as one and vow to protect our homeland to the death, but although Qili’s troops are numerous, they still have a fatal weakness.”
"Weakness?" Ke Dun asked immediately: "What weakness?"
Qin Xiaodao: "Ke Dun, as far as I know, although the Du'er tribe has risen rapidly in recent years, it was just an ordinary tribe at the beginning. There are many tribes in Monan that are stronger than them. Tie Han is indeed a grassland hero.
After conquering many tribes in Monan, the number of soldiers and horses under his command also increased, and they seemed to be even stronger. But have you ever thought about it, although Tie Han has many soldiers and horses, how many people are really willing to die for him? Tie Han has many people.
Han has many enemies. Of course, it is impossible to send out all the troops this time. The soldiers and horses left in the Han court to protect the rear must also be the direct line of Durhu. In this way, the soldiers and horses under Qili's command truly belong to the direct line of Durhu.
Not too big.”
Someone immediately said: "I agree with this. Although Qili brought tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, most of them are young men from the tribes he annexed, not Du'er Husbands."
"That's right." Qin Xiao said: "Whenever a tribe is annexed, it has experienced blood and fire. Many of these soldiers' relatives may have died under the swords of the Durhu people. They were recruited to send troops.
, just forced by Tie Han’s sharp saber, but in their hearts, are they really willing to sacrifice their lives for Tie Han?”
As soon as he said these words, the solemn atmosphere in the hall began to relax a lot, and everyone began to become lively, whispering to each other.
Of course, the etiquette of the grassland tribes is not as strict as that of the Tang Dynasty. During court meetings, officials of the Tang Dynasty are naturally not allowed to whisper in the main hall, otherwise they will easily be charged with disrespect. However, it is common for the grassland tribes to discuss matters and communicate with each other.
will not be punished for this.
"Xiang Gong is right." Someone said: "Although there are many Qili soldiers and horses, they are young and strong people forcibly drawn from various ministries. If the war goes well, they will naturally be like wolves and tigers. But once we fight to the end, those people will inevitably
If the soldiers' morale is shaken, they may not fight with us to the end."
"After Tiehan conquered various tribes, soldiers and horses from Durhu were treated the best, and almost all the generals in the army were from Durhu." Someone said: "Soldiers and horses from other tribes are often treated as cannon fodder.
They are at the front, and their treatment is far inferior to that of the Duerhu people. They must have resentment in their hearts."
Qin Xiaodao: "So we don't have to be frightened by their large numbers. As long as we work together and are determined to defend Iron Mountain to the death, it is not impossible to repel the wolf cavalry." He looked up at Ke Dun and said, "Ke Dun
We are already preparing to form an alliance with Zhenyu, and Guibu and Bu Liuda are also allies. If they can join hands to fight against the enemy, He Gu will definitely be able to drive Qili out of Modong this time. He just needs to give them heavy damage and let them know
The Xile tribes are not easy to mess with, at least we can buy a few years of peace."
Qin Xiao's words cheered up everyone who was feeling heavy.
Originally, everyone saw that Ke Dun had summoned only a young man from the Tang Dynasty, so they looked down upon him sincerely. After all, how could a young man have any plans? Moreover, Qin Xiao was thin in stature.
In his eyes, he is no different from a useless person.
But after what Qin Xiao said, everyone felt that although this man was young, he had a lot of experience.
The charming and beautiful eyes under the slender figure showed even more admiration.
"There is no need to count on Buliuda people." Someone said: "Although they have formed an alliance with us, the alliance is to deal with the Zhenyu people. Qili soldiers are pressing down on the border. Buliuda people do not need to abide by the covenant and send troops." After a pause, he sneered.
Said: "I thought they would hide aside and watch the battle. If we and Qili both lose, they might come over and take the opportunity to attack Tieshan."
Qin Xiao said calmly: "Of course it is possible, but doing this is harmful to them. The grassland people believe in their promises. They are allies with your tribe. Not sending troops to help will already make the Xile tribes have opinions. If they take the opportunity to attack
Your own allies will be despised. This battle is between the Siler people and the Tusun people. It is related to the life and death of all the Siler people in Modong. Whoever takes advantage of the situation and robs them will definitely become the public enemy of the entire Siler tribe.
"
Ke Dun thought for a while and finally said: "Send someone to send an order to He Loutai, asking him to immediately lead all the troops west to camp on the east bank of the Galiang River. The young and strong tribes recruited from each account will be transferred to the Galiang River.
Gather." He looked at one person and ordered: "Heba Tuohai, you are in charge of the tribe's food and grass. Immediately transport the food and grass to the Galiang River to ensure that there are no problems with the logistics of all soldiers."
Heba Tuohai stood up and bowed: "I obey the order. Ke Dun, although if all the troops and horses are transferred to the Galiang River, if Zhen Yu or Bu Liuda has other intentions, we...!" After a pause
After a pause, he said: "Should we deploy a small number of troops and horses for defense?"
"No need." Ke Dun shook his head and said: "All troops and horses will be transferred to the Galiang River. I just want to let all the Xile people in Modong know that He Gu will fight against the Tusun people with all their strength. When Modong encounters a great disaster,
We will not point our sword at the Sile people."
Hearing this, Qin Xiao felt respect for Ke Dun for the first time. Although Ke Dun was a woman, many men could not match her courage and determination. It was not an accident that she was able to sit here and pay tribute to her for many years.
"Have your horse drive day and night to Buliuda and tell them that the Tusun people have already invaded the territory with a large army," Ke Dun ordered.
"Are you asking them for help?"
"No, just tell them the news." Ke Dun said calmly: "We don't ask them, it's up to them to decide how to choose. Grand Officer, you should set off immediately to see Maha Wuqing and tell her that if
She has no objection, I will wait for her at the black beach in two days."
The chief minister stood up and said yes.
"Let's all get ready." Ke Dun ordered, "Xiang Gong, you stay here first, and everyone else leaves."
After everyone had retreated, Ke Dun waved to Qin Xiao and signaled Qin Xiao to come closer. Qin Xiao hesitated for a moment and then approached. Ke Dun saw that he was a little cautious and said softly: "You are not my subject, nor are you.
Not a hostage, no need to be formal. I prefer the way we talked in the underground secret room."
Qin Xiao smiled and said: "When I saw him today, I realized that Ke Dun is very courageous and admirable."
"Actually, you are the one who makes me admire you." Ke Dun looked around, then raised his arm to lift Mi Luo, staring at Qin Xiao with his charming eyes, with a smile on his lips: "These leaders and elders are all stubborn, sometimes very stubborn.
It’s hard to explain, but after what you said, everyone was convinced. It seems that you are more convincing than me, Ke Dun.”
Ke Dun held a meeting today. Naturally, she wore a little makeup, and her features were picturesque. She had a mature and beautiful face that was full of charm. Those eyes made her even more charming. Qin Xiao looked at this face and felt
He hesitated for a moment, but immediately looked away, feeling a little embarrassed.
He had to admit that Ke Dun was not necessarily the most beautiful woman he had ever seen, but in terms of charm, she was the most charming among them. This was a mature stunner who made people want to go to bed at just one glance.
"Don't be afraid, I didn't bring Yuqingcao today." Ke Dun teased in a low voice and said gently: "If you survive the disaster this time, I will definitely reward you heavily."
However, Qin Xiao said by mistake: "Ke Dun is going to give yourself to me?" As soon as he said the words, he regretted it. After all, this time was different from that time. Ke Dun was now high and majestic. He just remembered that Ke Dun was in the underground secret room.
After joking about this sentence, I couldn't help but blurt it out.
But Dun became even more charming, leaning slightly towards Qin Xiao, and asked in a tired voice: "I will give myself to you, do you dare to accept it?"
Qin Xiao's old face turned red, and the greasy sound made his heart beat faster. Although there was no Yuqingcao in Ke Dun's mouth, the faint body fragrance exuding from her body still made people feel excited. Knowing that Ke Dun was too close, Ke Dun would be in a hurry from time to time.
After saying a few words of charm, I was so full of energy that I felt a little uncomfortable. I took two steps back and asked: "Ketun, where is the black beach you mentioned?"
"Sixty miles south of the Iron Palace, there is a lake. The lakeside is full of gravel and black in color, so it is called the Black Beach." Ke Dun said: "The soldiers and horses returning from Luozhi Mountain are now stationed at the Black Beach.
, but He Loutai will lead his troops to Galiang River today. He Loutai is my most powerful general in He Gu, and he is also loyal to me."
Qin Xiao remembered that when he and Wu Qingtage encountered a heavy snowstorm, they met a group of spies from He Gu. One of them was named He Loufu. He should be of the same clan as the fierce general He Loutai. Those spies were also killed.
After all, of course we can't tell Ke Dun about this matter.
Ke Dun was considerate, and without waiting for Qin Xiao to ask, he continued to explain: "The Galiang River is to the west of Tieshan, more than a hundred miles away from Tie Palace, but the river is not deep, and the deepest part only reaches the waist, but the surface of the river is upside down.
It is very wide, and it is the only place in the west that can be regarded as a barrier. When Helotai gets there, he will naturally break the frozen ice on the river and guard the east bank. If the Chili army comes over, he must cross the river. Although the river
It won't really stop them, but it can also be used as a barrier to delay their charge."
Qin Xiao nodded slightly, thinking that this was a good idea and that he could take advantage of all the favorable conditions. He felt a little excited at the thought that he would soon participate in a life-and-death battle on the grassland.
ps: It’s getting cold, everyone please keep warm. I would like to express my special thanks to my good brother Xiang Guoyun. This month I supported another Supreme, which was really expensive and now ranks among the top three in the fan list. In addition, I would also like to thank everyone who cast a monthly vote to support the desert.
A good friend. His performance has risen rapidly recently. You can also see that he is at the top of the best-seller list. This should also mean that there is no problem with the overall outline of Desert. This path is still on the right track. I will continue to work hard in the future.
Live up to your high expectations.
