Chapter 4 Chapter 4 Mistakes

Huyan Aobo wanted to lure Yang Yanlang into ambush, but Yang Yanlang was unmoved, you hit yours, I hit mine, but Huyan Aobo won the battle, but fell into a passive position. After learning that the Gouta village was lost, Huyan Aobo immediately gave up his pursuit of Lai Youwei and counterattacked the Guta village.In the early morning, Yang Yanlang took advantage of a night's work to redeploy the defense of the Gouta village, when Huyan Aobo arrived with his army. Although the army Yang Yanlang brought from Lingzhou this time is inferior to Huyan Aobo in terms of strength, it is three times stronger than the last time when he rushed to Douling to take over the defense of Wei Wubu. Huyan Aobo's offensive.Huyan Aobo made people scold and fight in front of the village, but Yang Yanlang was unmoved, and put up his free card. If you come to attack, I will fight. If you retreat, I will never attack. on the way.

Huyan Aobo has never read military books, and all his experience was honed during his military career. When he saw Yang Yanlang's reaction, he knew that Yang Yanlang deliberately left all his troops here. At this time, Weizhou Lai Youwei packed up the remnants of the soldiers and came to pick up the cheap, and continued to harass his barracks, and Li Jiyun began to worry. He failed in the surprise attack on Xiazhou back then, and was chased like a lost dog by Yang Hao's men. His brother Ye Luohe almost killed himself in the west of Yinzhou City. The feeling of ambush on all sides and every step of the way is still lingering in his heart, and he doesn't want to repeat it again. After such an experience, Yang Yanlang has little hope of opening a bloody road by sticking to the cutting village right now. There are no other roads to pass through in this area.

Li Jiyun was fidgeting, and hurried to call Yan Aobo to discuss. Huyan Aobo also knew that it would take another day, and the danger of being encircled by the Xixia army would increase. A dead end, rather than sit and wait to die, it is better to find another way of life. Li Jiyun is familiar with the geography of Hexi mountains and rivers, and Huyan Aobo knows the detailed military deployment of Longyou Tubo along the Qilian Mountains. The two exchanged information, discussed for half a night, and drew up a bold plan: the strong man relieved his wrists, abandoned the cut and stepped on the village, and went east. Defeating the lingering Lai Youwei, he bypassed Weizhou and went straight to Mengjing. Mengjing is a small city with a low wall, so he can almost jump on horseback.But here is close to Yanzhou, and Yanzhou is an extremely rich city in Hexi, so this small city is relatively rich.

After Mengjing supplemented the military supplies, he pretended to go to Yanzhou.Yanzhou is one of the largest cities in Xixia, and Yang Hao will never let Yanzhou lose the tax revenue provided to Xixia every year. No matter whether Huyan Aobo and Li Jiyun are fighting for real or feinting, Yang Hao can't take the risk.In this way, all the Xixia soldiers and horses who were blocking the way and rushing forward can be led to Yanzhou. At this time, he quickly left the battlefield and rushed hundreds of miles to Hama Village in a day and a night.Xiamazhai leans against the Qilian Mountains, where there is a passage connecting Longyou in the west of Hexi, the mountain passage is like a sheep's gut, called "A Line of Sky", it is not suitable for large troops to pass through, so there are not many troops stationed on both sides.If you attack the mountains from the outside, it will be much easier to fight. You can cut off the Xixia garrison soldiers guarding the mountains first, and return to Longyou by way of "a line of sky".

Dark clouds cover the moon, and the winter is cold. At the juncture of life and death, Huyan Aobo let go of his always arrogant and arrogant temperament, and talked with Li Jiyun at night by candlelight, staying up all night, and drafted contingency strategies for every step of the entire action plan, and even the variables that might be faced at each step. In the camp, the lights were high in the camp, and there was the sound of fighting. The soldiers couldn't take off their clothes, sleeping on their pillows, always on guard against Huyan Aobo's night attack.The dog jumps over the wall in a hurry, facing this only way of life, it's no wonder that the Tibetans don't work hard.

Dressed neatly, Yang Yanlang patrolled the barracks at night, and climbed up to look far away, looking at the lights in Huyan Aobo camp, eagerly looking forward to the arrival of reinforcements.In the great chaos this winter, Huihe in Ganzhou was completely weakened, and there was no longer any capital to make troubles, and those with bad intentions were wiped out.And the leaders of the Tuoba clan in Xingzhou, who were proud of their achievements and proud of their martial arts, were also beheaded to death on the night of remonstrance. After that bloody night, the most powerful force in the imperial court that hindered Yang Hao was completely exhausted. disappear.From now on, Yang Hao is the one who leaps from the sea to the sky and lets the birds fly from the sky. The temporary turmoil will bring us long-term peace.

If at this time, the invading Tubo forces can be completely wiped out within the territory, it will undoubtedly be icing on the cake and strengthen their momentum.According to the estimates of the imperial court, once they learned that Su Erman had missed his hand, they would retreat quickly, and they could not be stopped. Therefore, Yang Yanlang's mission was to "send" them back to Longyou in a graceful manner. Unexpectedly, because of the heavy snow, Yang Yanlang's department was a few hours later than the scheduled time, and Lai Youwei's department, who cooperated with the flank, arrived on time.

The situation on the battlefield is changing rapidly, and if it affects the overall situation, it will completely change the whole situation. To a large extent, it depends on the independent decision of the forward general.
Another day the sun is rising. In the cuta village, the officers and soldiers lined up to draw water from the well, wash their hair and face, and the smoke from the stove was rising, and they were busy.According to the habits of the past few days, it won't be long before Huyan Aobo's troops will swarm like soldiers and ants, and start another day's fierce battle.

The sun had already risen to a pole high, and there was still no movement in Huyan Aobo's camp in the distance, but there was smoke everywhere in the camp, and battle flags were flying around, but no one was walking around, let alone forming a battle. Standing on a high place, Yang Yanlang waited and watched for a while, seeing that there was still no movement in the opposing camp, so he sent a few scouts to approach boldly. Even though he was a scout, he couldn't even talk about hiding at this time, he just walked over directly. If a burst of arrows came from the enemy's camp, it would be a miracle if he could escape.These scouts stopped and went, dawdling, and kept probing, but there was no movement in the other camp. When they walked directly into the other camp with trepidation, they found that there was no one in the camp, not a single horse. , is completely an empty camp.

Huyan Aobo has fled overnight, and his whereabouts are unknown. Several scouts wandered around the camp in disbelief for a long time, convinced that there was absolutely no soldier in the camp, and then hurriedly returned to the Ghota Village to report to Yang Yanlang.Yang Yanlang was also puzzled. He still couldn't understand the geography of Hexi mountains and rivers. He spread out the map and looked at it for a long time, but it was still difficult to guess the whereabouts of Huyan Aobo and Li Jiyun. Yang Yanlang gathered all the generals to make a plan, for Huyan Aobo's empty plan, most of them tended to think that Huyan Aobo would be difficult to attack and break through the stronghold, so they used false evasion techniques to lure him into pursuit, repeating the story of Yang Yanlang's taking over the cuta, In order to divert the tiger away from the mountain and break through the way of life.In the evening, Lai Youwei sent the news that Huyan Aobo ran for dozens of miles at night to attack his camp, and after defeating him, he went straight to Weizhou. This news was confirmed by the analysis of Yang Yanlang and others, and it became more firm their opinion.

No matter how Huyan Aobo struggles, he hangs alone with no reinforcements, no food and grass supplies, holding here is just choking his throat, just keep the same and respond to all changes.In fact, even if Yang Yanlang hadn't made such a judgment, he still couldn't pursue him. Once he left, the Gouta village might fall into the hands of Huyan Aobo again. Open reason.No matter how hard he struggled, he couldn't get out of Hexi, and the reinforcements from all walks of life should arrive, so the task of encircling and annihilating had to be handed over to other friendly troops.
"Yes, a little further to the left, about ten miles away, there is a tribe." Zhe Ziyu sat on the snow sledge and pointed out to the Jurchen warriors who escorted her. It is not suitable to travel far in winter, but with the sledge pulled by this dog, the speed is really faster than a fast horse. There are roads everywhere in this vast snowfield, and it is really fast to move.Since entering the territory of Xixia, every day I walked, I was one step closer to Xingzhou. I had already talked with Yongqing, who was traveling with me, and I spent most of the boring journey. Wrapped in the leather robe, I spent it like sleeping but not sleeping, but the joy in my heart increased day by day. Zhe Ziyu remembered the tribe in front of her very clearly. In order to hurry, she did not stop for a while. Today, she wanted to stop in that tribe, replenish some food, and at the same time inquire about all kinds of things that happened in Xixia this year. She is far away overseas. During these days, she was completely ignorant of everything that happened here, whether it was Yang Hao or her elder brother, they were all people she cared about. The snow sled stopped in that village, and Zhe Ziyu stepped off the sled, looking at the movement around him in surprise. There are still a few thatched huts with mud walls, which stand dilapidatedly in the snowy field. As for the simpler shed-style buildings, it is unknown whether they were demolished or blown down by the wind and snow, and there is nothing left. Zhezi Yu remembers clearly that this village has more than 200 families. Because it is close to the Hengshan line, it often has business contacts with the Han people. It is a market-style village formed by the Dangxiang people over the years, and rarely migrates like nomadic tribes. .But why did this small village disappear without a trace? Could it be that there was some kind of brutal and fierce battle here, so that a harmless small village was completely destroyed by the flames of war? Zhang Shisan looked around for a while, and said suspiciously: "Fifth Young Master, you...do you remember it wrong?" Zhe Ziyu shook his head lightly. Princess Yongqing had already stepped off the sled, exercising her tired muscles and bones. It is rare to reveal a trace of joy and innocence as a girl. Zhe Ziyu wanted to order to continue on his way, but when he saw Yongqing playing with the snow, he couldn't help smiling, and called everyone to come down and stretch their bodies. After resting for half an hour, they continued on the road and walked for another half day. In the evening, they accidentally discovered a small tribe by a frozen glacier.Zhe Ziyu was ecstatic, and quickly asked people to stop, and went to the tribe to rest. The shepherds on the prairie often wander with their families on the prairie, and they don’t see other people for several months. They can only talk to the sheep and sing to the white clouds, so they have developed the most hospitable character, even though they are strangers As long as the travelers enter the house, they will take out their most precious food to share with you. Satisfying the guests is their greatest glory. However, the arrival of Zhe Ziyu and his party was not welcomed by the always hospitable shepherds. Their attitude was very cold, even with a bit of vigilance and vigilance. They let them into their felt bags. Grilled meat, milk tea, yoghurt... It's not very to their taste, but it's a rare hot soup and meal during the long journey. A few Jurchens are eating and drinking at a table near the door. Zhe Ziyu, Princess Yongqing and Zhang Shisan sat with the host and his wife. The couple had four children at home, and they stayed aside sensibly, looking at the guests quietly and curiously. The male owner of this family is called Zalie, and the female owner is called Jifu, who seems a little dull and reticent. "I've been here before. At that time, there were no tribes stationed here. Which tribe do you belong to? By the way, sixty miles to the east, there is a market, why is it gone?" Zalie glanced at Zhe Ziyu. Although both Zhe Ziyu and Princess Yongqing were wearing men's clothes, he recognized that they were two women, so his expression softened a bit: "Have you not been here for a long time?" Zhe Ziyu smiled, blinked and said, "Not for a long time, just over a year." "More than a year?" Zale was a little dazed, and after thinking about it, he smiled wryly and said, "Isn't it? It's only been more than a year. I feel... like it's been ten or twenty years..." He sighed and said, "The changes in this year... are more than the previous thirty years combined." Zhe Ziyu and Zhang Shisan looked at each other. Zhang Shisan hurriedly picked up the wine and persuaded him affectionately. Although Zalie didn't talk much, he was addicted to alcohol. Forget it, wiped his mouth, and then he said: "We in the northwest, the war... has never stopped. But in the past, we fought back and fought, and we lived our lives after the war. But not now, we party members We have wandered in the grasslands for hundreds of years, and now we have established a country with our own king..." He ate a mouthful of meat, smacked his lips and said: "Well, it should have happened at the beginning of the year. The king re-divided the territories of each tribe according to the number of people and the poorness of the grassland. Some tribes moved away, some The tribe moved here, and the whole grassland has changed drastically. If you haven’t come here for a year, it’s hard to find someone according to the way you used to.” "Oh?" Zhe Ziyu cut a small piece of meat and handed it to his mouth, then said with a smile, "So, do you like this change?" Zalie said: "Whether you like it or not, it's not up to ordinary people like us. In other words, it's fair for the king to divide the territory. We... belong to the Tuoba tribe. This division is the best pasture. Part of it was given to other tribes, no... our tribe was also moved to the territory of the original Xifeng tribe, but the king is fair, and we have nothing to say." The hostess Ji Fu refilled Zhe Ziyu's milk tea and sighed: "These are not important. The most important thing is that I used to be for my own tribe. Everyone has their own tribe and leader. This time they are all kings." If there are more people, there will be fewer people fighting this battle, and I am still happy." She glanced at Zale, and said in a low voice: "We are the only two couples left in our family. We used to be a big family. Fight with this, fight with that, all... As long as you are safe and sound, even if the days are longer It’s okay to suffer a bit before, and as long as there is no war, life will always get better and better, but... the chiefs are not happy. We have a country, and we have to pay taxes. It has to be under the control of the king. Those who have less land and less power, will they be happy? I heard... a few days ago, hundreds of leaders broke into the palace at night in Xingzhou to rebel against the king... " When Zhe Ziyu heard that Qu Ran's face changed, he hurriedly asked, "What happened after that?" Zalie glared at his wife, and replied on her behalf: "Who knows, we still heard about it from a peddler who came to Yanzhou to sell salt. I heard that more than a hundred leaders gathered their family warriors. It surpassed the king's army..." Zhang Shisan couldn't help but said: "How is it possible, they can blatantly drag the tribal warriors to Xingzhou? Besides, Xingzhou is the capital of the king, so how can there be no army in town?" Zalie said: "Hey, isn't there someone making trouble outside? The Huihe people rebelled and set up a queen. The merchant said that their army hit Mingsha, and... and..." The lucky woman had no scruples, and said: "There is also Li Jiyun, the former young master of our Tuoba clan, who borrowed Tubo soldiers and killed him from Xiaoguan. The king sent a large army to meet the enemy, and these big people made a fuss in the king's city. Well, more than a hundred chiefs, each of them only needs to bring a hundred or ten guards and warriors, that’s not tens of thousands? I heard from the businessman that blood flowed like rivers in Xingzhou City, and the snow was dyed red... " Zhe Ziyu nervously said: "Then... what happened next? Did they succeed?" "Successful fart! What is Li Guangrui's ability? Didn't he let the king fight to the death? When it's their turn, a bunch of trash, they know how to treat us fiercely and plunder us. More than a hundred sheep can fight a tiger? They lost, it doesn't matter if they die, we are just worried now... I don't know how the king will arrange for us tribesmen, we just want to live a peaceful life, and we don't want to follow the leader to rebel, if our tribe is moved by the king because of this Go to the extreme northern desert..." Ji Fu sighed with a sad face, Zhe Ziyu saw Zalie's nervous face, and couldn't help smiling: "Brother Zalie, don't worry, we have nothing to do with Li Jiyun." She turned to Jifu again Comfortingly said: "Don't worry, Yang... Your Majesty is a wise king, he will not take the crimes of those leaders on you." Ji Fu said: "I hope so." Zhe Ziyu smiled and said: "We are going to Xingzhou, and we also know... some people around the king. We will pass on your wishes and worries to the king, and I believe that the king will arrange you properly. Thirteenth, thank you tonight For the hospitality of Lie and his wife, when we leave tomorrow morning, we will give the master a pair of gold ingots." Zalie was surprised and happy when he heard that, and quickly thanked him, saying: "You are going to Xingzhou? Seeing that there are so few of you, and it is a world of ice and snow, you should not go to Hanhai. If it is safer, go all the way south. Let's go to Yanzhou and turn west." If you go that way, you will walk at a right angle, which is a lot longer than the straight-line distance across Hanhai. After saying this, I couldn't help asking: "Why do you need to go to Yanzhou, Hanhai... I have walked by it a few times, it is naturally inconvenient for a large group of people, but it is not difficult for such a small number of people to pass." Zalie said: "A hundred leaders conspired against each other, and they were defeated, but some of their remnants escaped and refused to surrender. Now they fled in the Hanhai desert and pretended to be horse bandits and robbers. Now the merchants would rather take a long way If you don't cross Hanhai, you are small in number, you have both gold and silver and women, crossing Hanhai...is too unsafe." Zhe Ziyu suddenly realized, and said with a smile: "Thank you, brother Zalie, for reminding us, then let's go to Yanzhou. Although the road is a bit far, it will be good if we can live in peace."
