Chapter 197 Before the War
With only two days to go before the Spring Festival, the layout of the palace was almost completed. The large and magnificent Tai Chi Palace is illuminated with lights, and the festive red color adds another beauty to the originally solemn place. The people in the palace also changed into new clothes, and when they came back and forth, they talked to each other tirelessly.
But in the Northwest Sui Army camp, this kind of celebration is missing.
The army has been out of customs for several months. Although the city of Nirvana has been captured and the Mandu Banner territory has been promoted for five hundred miles, this is by no means worthy of celebration. According to the original plan, at this time, the Mandu Banner should have been occupied The situation is right. After all, Mantu Latu has no more than 50,000 troops. Even with the herdsmen who participated in the war, there is still a large gap in strength compared with the 700,000 Great Sui soldiers who were armed to the teeth.
In fact, the original intention of this war was to win the Mongolian and Mandu flags.
More than two thousand miles of pastures, and tens of millions of livestock, hundreds of thousands of herders, if all these are won, the record will be brilliant enough.
There was no problem with the plan designated by the Ministry of Defense, but the war situation just couldn't be opened.
After the first battle, after the two thousand fine horses under Mandu Wolf were almost lost, he returned with a few hundred cavalrymen to Nirvana City, but how could it be held by these hundreds of troops alone? Moreover, Dasui's army is familiar to the siege as if it recalls something that happened yesterday. Although the most recent war goes back more than two decades, the soldiers in Da Sui were not a little jerky about siege.
A small city of Nirvana was hit with almost no effort. The Mandu wolf fled with less than thirty people, but poisoned all the animals in the city before leaving. Not only in Nirvana, all tribes of the Mandu Banner were withdrawn in an orderly manner at the beginning of the war, and all the animals that could not be taken away were poisoned.
The bodies of these animals did not even make food for Sui Jun.
Wherever the army passed, looking at the corpses of frozen animals that had fallen to the ground, the soldiers were distressed. So many cattle and sheep, and even war horses were poisoned. Those Mongolian Yuan barbarians really got to go. For the Sui Army, which lacked war horses, it was a huge loss to be unable to reap.
According to the plan, after the raid on Nirvana City, the army would transport the captured animals back to the east of Langru, but now, although they are stepping on the five hundred li pasture of the Mongolian barbarian, they feel nothing.
Zheng Xi, the general manager, Asahi-gun Wang Yangkai has been in a bad mood.
Originally, I planned to take out a batch of captured animals and slaughter the three armed forces during the Chinese New Year. However, even the soldiers and horses that are snatched from the Mengyuan people cannot feed them! What is the use of this 500-mile pasture without animals?
"Royal ..."
The Ministry of Defense Shang Shumou hesitated for a moment, and could not help but persuade: "Although the cattle and sheep and horses of the Mongolian Yuanzi were not captured as expected, the battle could not be considered smooth. After all, the army has penetrated five hundred miles and our logistics supplies Abundant. Even if there is not enough cattle and sheep to serve, there will be no shortage of wine and meat. "
Yang Kaiyan sighed, "I feel ashamed of trust in Your Majesty."
There are only two people in the room: He and Mou Liangzhang, so he said many things without taboo: "Although there is plenty of food, according to the plan, after the victory over Nirvana, the army does not need to redeploy the food from the customs. His Majesty's hope It's a good news that we sent to Chang'an City, not the situation now! "
Mouliang sighed and said, "The army is not united. How easy is it to win a victory? Lord Wang, look at the faces of the generals, and look at the appearance of the Governors ... Where are they a little determined? Aggressive thinking, clearly wanted to force Wang Ye and Chen to flee back to Chang'an City with sinful wolves! "
"You can't say that."
Yang Kai shook his head and said, "The army has not slackened in attacking."
"There is no slackness in marching, but many battles that can be easily won are fought so anxious. How can these people deserve your Majesty's trust!"
"Still I failed to coordinate."
Yang Kai said sadly: "Your Majesty handed me over this errand.
"Why does the Lord take all the fault on himself!"
Mou Liang said: "I have written the memorial, please give His Royal Highness the sword to the Lord. Nothing can hold them, they have no awe to the Lord!"
Yang Kai waved his hand: "Since the founding of Sui Liguo, there has never been a commander in charge of the Shangfang Baojian with his Majesty. If he can command troops with his majesty, it is the incompetence and shame of the handsome. At that time, I will discuss with the generals that this war can no longer be dragged on. How much is the daily consumption of the 700,000 army and the millions of civilians? Even if I have great national strength, it can be so unreasonable. Waste, too long to bear. "
At this time, suddenly the soldiers outside said loudly: "Right Xiaowei General Li Yuanshan, Zuo Xiaowei General Jin Shixiong, left-leaving General Wei Pei Huan, and right-leading General Wei Yu Zhengdong."
"Hurry up!"
Yang Kai quickly got up, and Mou Liangzhu followed with a wry smile and stood up.
Four generals rushed in and saluted Yang Kai. Yang Kai quickly stepped forward and needed to help, and smiled and said, "I just returned from raising my account. Why? Is there any urgent military service?"
Of the four generals, the oldest is General Zuowei Wei, General Jin Shixiong, Da Sui has the most troops in the northwest, and four of the sixteen guards are located in the northwest. The court's defense against Meng Yuan never weakened in the slightest. This west expedition, the soldiers and horses of the Northwest Four Guards are also the well-deserved main force.
Jin Shixiong laughed: "There is no urgent military service, just to come to the king to ask for saliva, and by the way, how will the next thirty years pass."
These things had been said before when the account was raised, so Yang Kai knew that the four of them must not have heard ears before.
He instructed people to have tea, and then sat down in the coach seat and said, "I do n’t have any good tea here. Wu Yidao has returned to Changan City. I have already drank the good tea he brought with me. If you are running This one is coming, that would be disappointing. "
Jin Shixiong and others laughed, and Li Yuanshan laughed: "Why is Wang Ye so stingy that he doesn't believe that you really have no inventory left?"
Yang Kaidao: "I still want to take it back to Changan City and show it to others. The rest will definitely not be taken out."
General Yu Zhengdong smiled and said, "In fact, I don't specifically come to ask for tea, or I want to ask the Lord, when should I march? When I raise my account, there are some words that are not good for the people below. Worry is anxiety, and then drag on. It will be more difficult to wait for Mongolia's reinforcements to arrive. The men and horses of the Mandu Banner are gathered up for only 60,000 or 70,000, but it is estimated that Mongolia's golden account cavalry will arrive in a maximum of half a month. . "
Yang Kai couldn't help but hesitated, and said to himself, why did these people suddenly turn sexual?
...
...
There was not a real tough battle in the military for months, but it was too large to attribute it to Meng Yuan. There are 20,000 miles from the Mengyuan Golden Account to the Mandu Banner. When the reinforcements of the Golden Account come together, it will not be possible in a few months. And the banner masters of other flags, without the orders of Han Han and Mengge, could not take their soldiers away from their fiefdoms at will, which gave the Sui army an opportunity.
In fact, the reason why Mandu Ratu hasn't waited to assist the soldiers now is, and the relationship between the masters of the Mongolian and Yuanqi Banners is even greater. For example, the contradiction between Keqin Banner, which is next to Mandu Banner, and the banner owner, Keqin Lelang, and Mandu Latu, are endless. Mandu Latu was dissatisfied with his small fiefdom and invaded the grassland of Keqin Banner. For this matter, there was no conflict between the two flags, but no one could break his face and fight.
Mandu Banner was captured by the Sui Army for at least five hundred miles, and Keqin Lelang was happy to see the theater. Anyway, there are ancestors of the banner masters who are not allowed to take their troops away from their fiefdoms at will, and Khan Meng cannot really take him as he is. Besides, he did not think that the Sui people could easily win the entire Mandu flag.
Mandu Ratu is a well-known lunatic. Even if the Sui people didn't come to fight his idea, he still tried to fight the Wolf Rushan. The Sui people came to the door by themselves. That's strange.
Mandu Ratu is indeed a lunatic, but this lunatic has become sensible this time. The army of Mandu Banner has never been in a tough fight with the Sui army, but waited for the aid of the golden account to arrive. Because he knows the truth, once he has all the people and horses in his hands, then he will not be able to maintain the seat of the banner master. Even if he defeated the Sui people with the help of God, the strength of Mandu Banner is bound to be greatly damaged.
And Mandu Banner is too far away from the golden account, how the guy Qin Lelang who invaded the grass field of Ke Qin Banner will get worse. Looking for sweaty judgement? Not to mention that the grassland was lost when the messenger arrived at the golden account. Even when he got there, he would send a person down to reconcile, trying to make Keqin Lelang spit it out. Women are even harder.
Because Mandu Latu knew this, he kept avoiding war. He felt bad for those lost pastures, and he was even more distressed by the poisoned cows, sheep, and horses, but there was nothing he could do. It was better than the entire pasture being taken away by the Sui people.
Mandu Ratu is old, and he does not want to be a sinner in his clan at the end of his life.
However, this does not mean that he does not want to achieve his huge reputation. Meng Yuan has been too peaceful for too long and lacks a true hero. Moreover, he has been waiting for the opportunity to teach those Sui people a lesson. The battle is about to be fought, and what is missing is the best time.
Mandu Ratu has two sons, and the eldest son Mandu is brave in the golden tent. This is the traditional rule of the Mongolian and Yuan Empire. The eldest son of the banner masters will live in Wang Ting until they inherit the banner master. When they or their brothers inherit the banner master, new hostages will be sent to Wang Ting again. .
This is an effective means of controlling the prairie. The Golden Family has never been too eager to raise a butcher knife to those who do not obey the rule.
Mandu Latu's second son is called Mandu Teller, which means that the wind is as fast as Mongolian.
He also has a very important nephew, which is Mandu Wolf.
The father of Mandu Wolf, the brother of Mandu Ratu, was taken hostage in Wang Ting, and he was looking forward to returning to the territory to inherit the banner owner. Du Lang's father was too late when Wang Ting learned the news.
He went to the theory of sweating, and sweating was too lazy to care about their housework ~ EbookFREE.me ~ In fact, the golden family prefers that the flags are not even between the flags or the flags. Instead, the family was worried. Provoking the contradictions between the flags has always been a masterpiece of the Golden Family.
Mandu Latu leaned on a thick velvet chair and glanced at his general.
"The day after tomorrow is the New Year's Eve of the Sui people. For everyone, New Year's Eve is as important as our Eid. On this day, they will put down their weapons and dance, drink and eat meat. This is a rare opportunity. My So I have been avoiding war and waiting for this day ... I need a brave samurai to lead the children of Mandu Banner to repay the blood debt to the Sui people! All the things they plunder and their own lives must be Take it back! "
"Who among you is willing to fight this battle ?!"
"I!"
Mandu Tler strode forward, with his palm on his chest and bowed his head: "Dear father, your brave son Mandu Tler is willing to take the children to the shame! As long as you give the whip to your son, he Will ride on the horse all the way to the front! The shameless Sui people took our pastures and cattle and sheep, and I will use their blood and heads to sacrifice the dead! "
"My son, you please me."
Mandu Ratu said, "But you can't do it alone, you need a strong helper."
"Man wolf!"
He shouted, "Don't you want to take back Nirvana ?!"
Mandu wolf hand on his chest replied loudly: "I think! I have long wanted to take the Mandu Banner warriors and ride a horse to trample the Sui people's body!"
Mantu Latu laughed aloud, and spread his hands, "Go, my children! The wolf will give you infinite strength, and the king of Ming will brush your body with the holy light. Let the Sui people celebrate New Year's Eve, change It's their death day! "
