Under the clear sky, there is the vast smoke-like Zhaoyu Ze.
The blue lake water is like a huge sapphire, and the newly grown green reeds beside the lake make a rustling and swaying sound due to the breeze. It is a beautiful spring scenery, not inferior to the scenery in the south of the Yangtze River.
"Plop!" A stone suddenly flew over and fell into the middle of the lake, stirring up large waves. It was like a naughty child scribbling on a landscape painting. The original artistic conception was suddenly destroyed.
.
"It's so boring! I really want to go home!" Ma Yunluan was dressed up in a smart outfit, but she rolled up her trouser legs without hesitation, revealing her wheat-colored feet. She stretched and shouted,
While venting, he kept slapping his feet in the water.
"Xiao Wu, you want to go home, isn't it because you are bored? It's because you don't want to compete with your sister Ling." Ma Dai sat not far away, looking at the beautiful scenery of lakes and mountains with his eyes, sighing.
said.
After his brother revealed his worries, Ma Yunluan's pretty face turned slightly red, but then he scratched his neck and said plausibly: "Huh, so what? Okay, why do we have to start a war with the Qingzhou Army? These days, we have already
How many people have died, even my sister-in-law’s youngest brother... Second brother, didn’t you say the same thing? Even if we win Qingzhou, we can’t copy what Wang Yu did. Without those new policies, there would be no way.
Qingzhou’s current prosperity, isn’t that an evil act?”
"That's the truth, but I have to avenge my uncle and General Wenyue." Ma Dai responded without energy, let alone persuasion.
Ma Yunluo puffed up his cheeks and retorted angrily: "My father was stabbed to death by those thieves who were burned as Qiang people. I saw it with my own eyes! If you want to take revenge, you have to kill those thieves first, otherwise it was Han Sui's fault too.
Damn it, what does it have to do with Xu Yuanzhi? Brother is completely putting the cart before the horse, not understanding the key points, and letting everyone die in vain!"
"Brother, I have no choice but to do it." Ma Dai sighed helplessly, but still remembered to warn: "Xiao Wu, don't blame him, let alone talk about it in public."
The relationship between the Qiang tribes is extremely complicated. Many tribes do not like each other and often conflict with each other. However, when dealing with the outside world, they can eliminate their differences and treat the outside world in unison.
In the case of Ma Teng's assassination, from a logical point of view, Xu Shu's alienation scheme only contributed to fueling the flames, and could not be said to be the culprit at all. If Han Sui had not had the intention to kill, the Qiang who burned the Qiang saw the benefits and ignored their loyalty and repeatedly
Impermanence, no matter how many rumors Xu Shu spread, how could Ma Teng and his son die tragically?
Han Sui and Ma Teng had an old grudge, and it was not surprising that they would fight each other, but there was no excuse for Shaodang Qiang's betrayal.
Of course Ma Chao didn't understand the truth, but what could he do? Shaodang Qiang put all the blame on Na Li and handed over Na Li's head. If Ma Chao refused, the Qiang would definitely not sit back and watch.
They will definitely fight in groups. If we use force, won't the army fall apart?
It is not advisable to liquidate Han Sui. The reason is similar. The difference is that it is Liang Xing and Hou Xuan's group who stand up to fight back. The result is also the split of the coalition forces. If Ma Chao wants to continue the war, he can only attack Xu Shu and Qingzhou.
The banner of revenge, otherwise, he may be able to take revenge, but there is definitely no hope of fighting for supremacy in the world.
The truth is so simple. Ma Dai has a clear mind in his heart, but there is definitely no way to tell it to Ma Yunluo. The little girl is simple-minded and innocent, and has nothing to do with such evil things.
"I know that he just wants to compete with Wang Pengju for the limelight and the world! He won't listen to anyone's advice. He doesn't even think about the fact that there is nothing he can do about such a small Gangyang City. When he reaches the Central Plains, he meets Qingzhou's
With tens of millions of militiamen and powerful cities, can he be overwhelming?"
It was rare for someone to listen to him speak. Ma Yunluo vented the frustration in his heart like pouring beans from a bamboo tube: "Sister Ling is a good person. She knew that we might meet in front of the battle, so she even gave me the armor. Wang Yu has never seen that.
, but since he is Sister Ling’s husband, he is definitely not too bad. If good people don’t fight good people, why should we fight Sister Ling and others to death?”
"...Who says it's not?" Ma Dai found that he had been sighing a lot recently, but other than sighing, what else could he do to answer the girl's questions?
It’s not that Ma Dai didn’t understand that when Wang Yu knew his identity as a brother and sister, he didn’t do anything to save him, and even gave him a car and an armor, which was probably a demonstration. Seeing the strength of the plate armor, even a man who was so brave as his eldest brother and so arrogant as his uncle
They were all shocked. The car's adaptability to the rugged path even moved General De Wenyue. They were all impressed by Qingzhou's war potential.
However, what Wang Yu did was very beautiful, leaving no trace at all. Lu Qiling and Xiao Wu really hit it off, and the gifts of cars and armors seemed to be very affectionate. Now the two armies are facing each other, fighting for life and death, which is very exciting.
It is impossible not to sigh that things are impermanent.
"Now that we have reached this stage, we must fight a battle before we can talk about it. There are no fathers and sons on the battlefield. Xiaowu, since my eldest brother has allowed you to lead the army into battle, don't just dwell on the old friendship and take it lightly. Fight with all your strength, no matter what.
Whether you win or lose, all you have to do is have a clear conscience. If you do this, General Xiao Lu will not have any resentment."
"Fight with all your strength, don't you feel guilty..." Ma Yunluan turned his head and looked eastward, only to see the distant mountains in the * light, recalling the face of his old friend in his heart, he was crazy for a moment.
…
While the Ma Dai brothers and sisters were having a heart-to-heart talk by the lake, Wang Yu's army joined Ji Ling and Ma Zhong's troops in Qi County and had arrived outside Gengyang City.
"The sinful minister Xu Shu, please see my lord! My lord has entrusted me with the important task of the Western Front and the safety of tens of thousands of soldiers. His instructions are to stick to it first and delay the main thing. However, I just relied on my whim, underestimated the enemy and advanced rashly, and did not follow my lord's teachings."
As for losing an army and humiliating the country, it will tarnish the reputation of our hussars as a victorious force and make us feel ashamed and shameless."
Xu Shu waited outside the city gate early. Seeing Wang Yu's figure from a distance, he hurried forward to greet him. He fell to the ground and apologized: "I have committed such a big mistake. Even if I commit suicide and thank you, it is not a pity. It's just the Western Front."
The war situation is urgent, so I have stayed here so far. Today I can see my lord's dignity, which is enough for me. However, I can only punish my lord as a token of gratitude for the dead soldiers, and I will have no complaints at the foot of Jiuquan."
When Xu Shu apologized, he did not engage in gimmicks such as bearing thorns or binding himself. He just admitted his fault frankly and apologized sincerely. This made his apology more formal and sincere.
All the generals had expected this, but when it came to this moment, they didn't know what to do.
Persuade? Xu Shu himself blocked the road to persuasion. The defeated general violated the master's established strategy and defeated the defeated general. If this is not a severe punishment, how can we talk about strict military management and enforcement of orders and prohibitions?
Don’t you want to persuade me? Xu Shu is a sunny young man with a cheerful and easy-going personality, and has a good relationship with his colleagues. He accidentally offended Taishi Ci, but he also managed to resolve the grudge. Who can bear to watch such a colleague go to work?
die?
For a moment, all the generals were hesitant. They looked at Xu Shu and then at Wang Yu, feeling anxious in their hearts. However, Xu Shu himself behaved very calmly.
In just a few breaths, it felt like several years. When Wang Yu finally spoke, all the generals felt like they had been drowning for a long time and finally breathed air.
"Yuan Zhi, you are wrong." Wang Yu looked at Xu Shu with cold eyes: "You are wrong because you don't even know where you are wrong."
Wang Yu's words were like a tongue twister. Not only were the generals confused, but even Xu Shu, who had long been determined to die, raised his head in surprise: "Your Majesty..."
"You retreated to Gengyang and held on alone. However, you sent the generals far away. It seemed that you had set up a line of defense. But in fact? Didn't you plan to attract Ma Chao to attack, and prepared to sacrifice yourself for the city and consume the Xiliang army?
Strength and morale preparation? You should have thought that as long as the Xiliang army was severely exhausted in Gengyang City, even if the reinforcements from the rear could not arrive in time, the western front would be safe, right? But have you ever thought that you would stick to the isolated city and be generous?
Go to death, but where will you leave me and the others?"
Wang Yu didn't wait for Xu Shu to speak, and opened his mouth with a series of questions, leaving Xu Shu speechless.
Xu Shu himself defended Gangyang, and indeed had the idea of martyrdom for the city. He did not expect that Ma Chao was such a shrewd person, and thought that the opponent would attack the city at any cost.
Although there are many powerful weapons, Gengyang is a small town after all. As long as Ma Chao is willing to attack fiercely at any cost, it is entirely possible to break the city before Wang Yu arrives. Xu Shu just wants to narrow the gap in the strength of the two sides through such consumption.
Then he created a fighting opportunity for Wang Yu, but he didn't expect to be betrayed by Wang Yu as soon as they met.
"Before you set out, I did tell you to focus on defense. But I also said that if you find a fighter plane, you can make your own judgment. Why should I strictly order you not to hold on? The defeat of Zixian County was due to luck.
You said that you underestimated the enemy, which is true to some extent, but you informed me of the divorce plan before, and I didn't stop you, so how can it be a mistake?"
Xu Shu was shocked and quickly said: "My lord, it's obvious that all of them are at fault..."
Wang Yu waved his hand, stopped Xu Shu from talking, and said loudly: "Since the formation of the Hussars, they have never been defeated in a big battle. Although it is an honor, it cannot be a burden! Soldiers are impermanent, and water is impermanent. In this world,
How can there be a true ever-victorious and invincible army? If you win, you will make persistent efforts, if you lose, you will encourage them, change them, and fight again, then you can use the army in the same way."
Wang Yu looked around the scene, looked at each other with the generals one by one, and shouted louder and louder: "From today on, there are still many battles to be fought. If you lose the battle, you will die. How many heroes do we have in Qingzhou?"
Is it enough? Is it possible that I will have to personally go to the battlefield every time in the future? My subordinates will die and can die, but they must not ask for death on their own!"
"Yuan Zhi, you have the time to think about how to plead guilty. Why not think carefully about how to make meritorious service and prevent the brothers who died in the battle from dying in vain? Only by doing this can you bear the responsibility of the general.
Do you and everyone else understand the trust and expectations of the entire army?"
"I am willing to die in service to the lord!" (To be continued. Please search Piaotian Literature for better and faster novels!)
