Chapter 7: Mobei West Wind and Hanhai Sand

Deserted mountains in Mobei.
There were bonfires flashing in the military camp that stretched for several miles, and soldiers hurried in and out of the handsome account from time to time. Some soldiers were sitting beside the fire far from the handsome tent, and the freshly hunted game roasting on the fire had been oiled by the sound of swords.
"Damn! This battle was fought, and there were flying sand deserts everywhere!" A sergeant slammed on the coals and couldn't help cursing, "It makes people's eyes blind!"
The other person immediately connected: "Who said no, what kind of general, and then even no one was seen in Chishu!"
"The rebels escape, if I let Lao Tzu come across, he must be killed with a single blow!"
"Where is it necessary for you to do it? The Fifth Highness can't spare him first! Who can afford to delay the army?"
"Decapitation makes him cheaper!"
When you said something to me, the soldiers yelled and talked: "It's better for us to say that King Ling's Xuanjia army has become a lone army in front. If you don't withdraw, you won't be able to come back. "
"Withdraw the troops? It is said that the Turkic people should have been encountered at this time. Maybe they had done it somewhere earlier!"
At this point, the campfire went dark, and I don't know who sighed: "Oh... always win and undefeated, this time it is hanging!"
"This late defense is still a general under the King Ling, who knows he actually made a surrender to the enemy."
"Bah! Which general do you think he looks like with his weak writing?"
"Fart!" Someone suddenly yelled in the dark, shouting in a loud voice, "Who said that Chishu had surrendered to the enemy!"
All the soldiers turned their heads one after another, and one of them shouted: "Chi Shu escaped in the dark, don't you know Dingguan? If it wasn't for the enemy, what was it?"
Na Dingguan leaned in front of the campfire and said, "Huh, what do you know? Lao Tzu and Chi Shu fought with King Ling together. That guy was very uncomfortable, but no one in Mobei is better than him. Familiar. Shengwu made a breakthrough in the East Turks in 19 years, and he still has three points of credit. King Ling sent him to lead the way. He dares to betray King Ling, I don’t believe it!"
Most of the people here are young soldiers. As soon as Ding Guan said this, many people asked: "Brother Ding participated in the 19th year battle, is he with King Ling's army?"
Ding Guan snapped the bones in his mouth to the ground: "Of course, Lao Tzu followed King Ling into the city of Dana that year and gave birth to the royal court of the East Turks!"
Someone among the soldiers immediately said, "Brother Ding, why don't you tell us about the situation at that time? Let the brothers also have a long experience."
After hearing this, Na Dingguan looked out across the desert. It seemed that he had seen the night of siege of the city many years ago. His eyes were brightened by the fire: "The battle in the 19th year of Shengwu, hey! That was the best fight in the army. A happy battle! Our brothers followed King Ling and ran for three thousand miles at night. More than 10,000 people supported the mountain gods and unknowingly copied the East Turkic army, and approached the city of Na. The city is known as the 120,000 defenders. I didn't prevent it. At that time, Luo Khan abandoned the city and fled north, and King Ling led the Xuan Jia army to cut him upright. I didn't see the scene of him offering his sword and surrendering. It's a pity..."
"Isn't my brother following King Ling? Why didn't you see it?" someone interjected.
Ding Guan raised his hand and pulled his clothes, revealing a long scar from his neck to his chest. Under the light of the fire, he was terribly frightened: "The battle was fought horribly. 15,000 people came back to 8,000, and I was almost killed. I got there!"
Many of the young soldiers gasped, and the wounds survived. A person next to him asked, "I heard that the Xuanjia Army is really so amazing?"
"Xuanjia Army?" Ding Guan narrowed his eyes to look at the beating campfire.
"No way?"
"how do I say this?"
"That was not made by humans." Ding Guan's face was illuminated by the flames from time to time, and he shook his head after thinking about it, "I can follow King Ling's soldiers for five days and five nights. No one has ever dismounted. Nacheng is still alive and alive. The eight thousand people who came back accounted for nearly seven thousand. The murderousness on their bodies, ghosts and gods would have to avoid three points. Tsk tsk, you look like tens of thousands of people, when the military order comes down, that is one person. It’s hard to say, I don’t understand."
"No matter how powerful the Xuan Jia army is, it has become a lone army this time!" someone couldn't help but say.
A gust of wind brightened the campfire. Ding Guan picked up the roasted rabbit and divided it into a circle. He still said with a rough voice, "This is not the first time that Shengwu killed Zuoxian of the West Turks in 22 years. In Wang’s battle, King Ling led the Xuanjia army to leave Houshan and cross the vast sea. The lone army penetrated into the enemy's belly for more than 2,000 miles, killing 50,000 enemies and returning. It was not that time that the Monan area was defeated!"
Many people had personally experienced the battle of the twenty-two years, and you immediately started talking about it.
There was a clamor, and suddenly a fast horse galloping before the camp, a black armored cavalry flew off the horse and went straight to the handsome account.
The lights are still in the handsome account, and the generals are in the account. Although Ye Tianxi, the fifth prince of the Celestial dynasty, could not see that he was very anxious on his face, the sound of frequent finger tapping on the long case made the account always a little uneasy.
When the army first entered Mobei, Chi Shu, a Pinghu Zhonglang who was familiar with the road, suddenly disappeared. Mobei is a desert at every turn, flying sand into the sky, and the terrain is extremely complex. It is difficult for people who are not familiar with it to find their way. Now 180,000 people march for several days, but they have been unable to follow the original plan and the fourth prince Ye Tianling led the army. Meeting, everyone is very worried.
"His Royal Highness," Suddenly a soldier entered the account to report, "There is news about the Chinese army!"
"What?" Ye Tianxi suddenly raised his head, "Say!"
"The Xuanjia Army fought with King Gulan of the Western Turks in Xuyan Mountain. King Gulan was defeated and retired from Daijun area, hurting more than 10,000 people!"
Ye Tianxi stood up before the case: "How about our army?"
"The casualties are unknown. When we met the forward detective, we only knew that His Highness Four and His Highness Eleven had led their troops to join us."
At dawn the next day, the rising sun just reflected a glow in the desert sky, and the Xuanjia Army had reached the front of the camp.
An angry horse gallops into the camp like a dragon, and the sky is golden, like a floating light inlaid on the mysterious robe, and the dazzling place carries the chill of a golden iron horse. Ye Tianling stood up and got off his horse, strode towards the handsome tent, followed by several people behind him.
Ye Tianxi had already greeted him with the generals, Ye Tianling nodded slightly to him, stepped into the handsome tent, and sat in the main seat with his shirt raised, his eyes swept away in the tent.
Since Ye Tianxi, the generals have bowed their heads and avoided them, seemingly afraid to look at them, stroking their swords and saluting together: "I have seen your Highness!"
There was a chill in the tent. Eleven raised his eyebrows slightly beside Ye Tianling. Fang listened to Ye Tianling and said lightly: "Fifth brother, the army on this road has not arrived for a few days. What is the reason?"
Because he was the coach, Ye Tianxi retreated to the side and stood side by side with the eleven. He replied: "The army lost its way and stayed here. It was my leader who was careless."
Ye Tianling glanced at him: "Lost?" His eyes sank, and his voice turned cold, "Where is Chi Shu?"
"Pinglu Zhonglang cast Chishu to the enemy and has been missing for many days." Ye Tianxi said.
Ye Tianling was surprised when he heard the words, and eleven was even more shocked: "Chi Shu surrendered to the enemy, how is this possible?" Since the 14th year of Shengwu, Chi Shu has followed the King of Ling to fight in the north and south. Because of his knowledge of the terrain of Mobei, he has repeatedly made achievements. He is a general who is highly trusted by King Ling. How can a person who has been with the army for more than ten years surrender to the enemy?
Ye Tianling's eyes touched the eleven slightly, and the surprise in his eyes was not yet formed, and he was swallowed by the deep ink eyes, and said in a deep voice, "What is the basis for this fifth brother?"
Ye Tianxi snorted coldly: "Three days ago, the army camped in the north, and the second day the army was pulled out and marched and disappeared. Later, people told us that he had effectively used the Western Turks to shoot and protect the Khan. It's clear to my heart. I heard that this Chishu was originally from outside the Great Wall. I wonder if the fourth brother knew?"
Ye Tianling didn't have any waves on her face, and asked, "Who is the one who has the heart of being unruly?"
An army general stepped forward: "The end general Qiu Pingyi has been with Chi Shu since the march. Chi Shu once lobbied him to defect to the Western Turks with him!"
Ye Tianling glanced at him indifferently: "Chi Shu once mentioned to you about rebelling against the Western Turks?"
"Yes!"
"when?"
"When I first entered Mobei, it has been many days."
"You knew he was going to surrender?"
"Not bad!"
"Are you sure he was correct?"
"It will be confirmed at last!"
"No objection?"
"...No objection!"
A cold edge appeared at the corner of Ye Tianling's lips: "You didn't report it, so Chi Shu left the camp smoothly, and the army was trapped here and delayed the fighter. What a crime!"
Qiu Pingyi was startled suddenly, and raised his head to look at the princes.
Ye Tianxi's expression was gloomy, with a lazy smile on her eleven faces, Ye Tianling's face was not emotional, but the cold front in her eyes was like a blade, and the caveman's heart was inside. He shook his whole body and hurriedly bowed his head.
"Fifth brother, how should this matter be handled according to military law?"
Ye Tianxi looked at Qiu Pingyi, who bowed his head to the ground, and said in a deep voice: "Treasoners punish the nine tribes. Those who conceal, hide, or know but do not report should be punished as the same crime, but they may not involve relatives according to the situation." He said very slowly. , Every word is very clear.
"Qiu Pingyi, do you understand?" Ye Tianling said slowly.
Qiu Pingyi's hand supporting the saber was raised with blue veins, and there was a moment of hesitation on his face, but after a moment, he bowed down and bowed down: "The general understands, please forgive the relatives of the general, the general... Thank you very much! "When the words fell, he drew his sword abruptly and swiped it across his neck, splashing three feet of blood in the tent.
Unexpectedly, the generals were shocked by this change. Eleven had already taken a step to stop it, but it was still too late.
Ye Tianling stared at Qiu Pingyi’s corpse, and there was a moment of turbulent waves in the depths of his eyes. When he reached the edge, he saw the bottomless blackness, but his eyebrows tightened without leaving a trace. Attack Wuhu River immediately!"
The generals left, and immediately someone went into the account and cleaned Qiu Pingyi's body.
Ye Tianxi looked at the blood on the ground and sighed: "Fortunately, the fourth brother led the troops. Not only was the whole army intact, but he defeated King Gulan. I couldn't handle it these days. It really made me sweat. Fight, I don’t know what the fourth brother has planned?"
"The defeat of King Gulan to Yesa City is to wait for the support of King Xiuxian. We must annihilate King Xiuxian's reinforcements at the Wuhu River." Ye Tianling said, "This battle must be won by the word'quick'."
Ye Tianxi nodded and said: "Now the army will be in one place and defeat one by one. They are definitely not opponents."
Ye Tianling said: "That's right, I'm troubled my fifth brother personally supervise the army, and send troops as soon as possible."
"Fourth brother, don't worry!"
Watching Ye Tianxi leave the account, Ye Tianling's complexion suddenly changed slightly, and he raised his hand to stroke his left chest. Eleven hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Fourth brother! Your injury has not healed. Would you like to see a military doctor?"
Ye Tianling closed her eyes slightly, and forcibly resisted the strange smell of sweetness in her throat, and said: "No, there is no need to say anything about this. Since someone in the army whispered to the Western Turks, we can feel so clearly in our every move. Be careful about everything.
There was a deep coldness in his eyes, and it was not only clear that the other party even knew that he had left the army with the eleventh disguise, and it was obvious that the means were very good.
Eleventh Road: "But this person can never be late."
Ye Tianling adjusted his breath slightly, and the severe pain that hit his chest gradually eased. After a short while, he looked at the unfinished blood on the ground with cold eyes. Qiu Pingyi apologized and nailed Chi Shu to the crime of the rebels, and everyone had to believe what he said.
Eleven pondered for a while, and suddenly said, "Fourth brother, don't you think that it seems that the army of the West Turks was not chasing us that day."
"It's an officer of Shiluo of the Eastern Turks." Ye Tianling stood up. When Shiluo Khan entered the sky to see the emperor, to show that he would not join forces with the Western Turks, it seemed that he was still intolerant of loneliness and wanted to take this muddy water. "Let's go. Let the order go on, and I will see people die and corpses." He coldly ordered, leaving the account with eleven steps.
