old attack difficult

Chapter 23

Chilechuan, under the Yin Mountain, the sky is like a dome, covering the four fields.The sky is gray, the wild is vast, and the wind blows the grass and the cattle and sheep are low.

The Yellow River under the stretching Yinshan Mountains has nurtured and nourished the Hetao Plain for hundreds of millions of years. Xianbei's ancestors walked out of the grassland from here and once conquered and unified the nomadic peoples in the north.

On the vast and endless grassland, the blue river meanders and flows, shining golden light in the sun.

A long team is slowly moving forward on the grassland, and the songs sung by women in Xianbei language are fluttering in the wind. It is far and wide, as if it has carried the ancient culture of Xianbei through thousands of years.

Chang'an Zhuma couldn't help feeling open-minded when he heard this.Wu Da hurried forward, seeing Chang An's serious look, with a smile in his deep eyes, pointing to the vast grassland with his hand holding a whip:

"Even the wind is free here."

Chang An took a breath, and the air was filled with the scent of grass and trees:

"I really like your songs, the long tunes are melodious, as if the whole grassland is in your songs."

Wu Da laughed, even though there were fine lines showing at the corners of his eyes, he was still very handsome.

The people in the Tuoba tribe of Xianbei all have fair skin and deep contours, and golden hair. In the eyes of the people of the Northern Wei Dynasty, such barbarian people are humble, but Chang'an always thinks that the appearance of the Xianbei people is actually beautiful, just like his mother.

Tuoba has a custom that the king of Xianbei needs to bring his bride back to Xianbei's Longxing land to worship his ancestors in Shengle, the prince who will succeed the throne in the future.Wu Da went back to Qilian Grassland to get married and took his followers on a long journey back to Shengle. Chang'an also wanted to broaden his horizons, so he simply left together.

Chang'an walked casually, but missed the letter sent to Qilian Grassland by the fast horse from Jingdu.

Soon after Chang'an sent Uda back to Xianbei to get married, Zhang Yifu, the nephew of Zhang Yi in Yunnan, was included in Nanzhao.

Emperor Wei was angry and planned to send troops to attack Nanzhao. Xue Yi knelt in front of Emperor Wei:

"Father, my son would like to request an order to accompany the army."

Emperor Wei was not at all surprised by Xue Yi's actions, but hesitated and said:

"You've never been in the army, and how do you ride a horse with your arms?"

Xue Yi frowned almost imperceptibly, shook her head and looked at Emperor Wei and said sincerely:

"Which one of the ancestors in the world was not obtained on horseback, if the sons and ministers have not even followed the army, I am afraid that they will be laughed at by future generations."

Emperor Wei looked at his gentle and jade-like son, Xue Yi was very sensible since he was a child, and being so sensible made people feel distressed.

Emperor Wei touched Xueyi's shoulder, and patted encouragingly:

"Be careful yourself!"

Emperor Wei issued a ban on 8 soldiers, and made General Mo Bai the general of the gods, and Xue Yi as the general to leave Rongzhou.

During the march, Xue Yi slept with the soldiers without the slightest prestige of a prince. Mo Bai rode a horse and walked side by side with Xue Yi, turning his face slightly to look at Xue Yi.

Xue Yi turned her head, not understanding Mo Bai's intention:

"Why does the general look at Gu like this?"

Mo Bai chuckled:

"This commander wants to take a good look at what the foolish boy in Chang'an said about Jiyue Qingfeng's dunfang gentleman."

Xue Yi shook her head with a smile, and the corners of Dan Feng's eyes melted slightly:

"What kind of gentleman is Gu? A gentleman is always obtained by a sage. Changan boasted about Gu again, which made the commander laugh."

Mo Bai raised his chin slightly, and a strand of curly hair on his forehead was blown behind his ears by the wind, exposing his high forehead and bridge of nose. He looked at Xueyi:

"Chang'an is a good boy, he likes you very much. This is rare in a country like yours."

Xue Yi nodded, her voice soft:

"Well, he's fine."

Mo Bai turned his gaze to the distant mountains and said slowly:

"When he first asked me to be his teacher, I hated the troubles he caused and left him alone on Mount Lu for three days. I said that if you can tell the emperor not to accept me as your teacher, I will send you back immediately... "

"Marshal, Chang'an was only 11 years old at that time, you did this..." Xue Yi stopped the horse after hearing this, and asked Mo Bai in a stern tone.

"Prince, please listen to my commander-in-chief. There are many beasts on Mount Lu. He is obviously very scared, but he still gritted his teeth and persisted..." Mo Bai waved his hand.

Xue Yi heard Mo Bai's deep voice constantly ringing in his ears. He had never heard Chang An talk to him about this kind of thing. He only knew that Chang An and Mo Bai studied very hard, but he didn't want his life to be in danger. With his whole heart full, he listened to Mo Bai continue.

"I don't understand how this little kid can be so determined. I asked him, do you want to be an emperor because you take me as your teacher?" Mo Bai blurted out such things as being an emperor without any taboo.

Xue Yi involuntarily raised his vigilance.

"That stupid boy finally told me that he wants to protect you and your country."

No amount of words can express Xueyi's feelings about Chang'an's treatment of him when he learned from his mouth, sighed, and all the complicated emotions melted into it.

"We have already arrived in Yunzhong County, and we will be able to reach Shengle in two days' journey." Chang'an Wuda and others rested in Yunzhong City. Wuda looked at the map and told Chang'an.

"This is the ancient cloud of Emperor Wu's establishment of a county here." Chang'an opened the curtain and turned sideways by the window to look at the faintly visible street market outside the building.

Yunzhong has always been an important place for military strategists and an important armed town. Soldiers armed with weapons often patrolled the streets when Hu Han traded, and the people were used to this.

In the distance, horseshoes galloped and kicked up dust, Chang An didn't mind pulling down the curtain to talk to Wu Da.

"When we come to Shengle with you, I will turn around and go back to Beijing."

Uda Surprise:

"Why are you in such a hurry? Didn't you say that you will stay in Shengle for a few more days?"

Chang An faintly frowned:

"I'm always uneasy these days, so I might as well go back as soon as possible.

"Alright, I don't have any major issues here, so you can rest assured." Wu Da nodded and put away the map.

"Deng dong dong..." There was an extremely noisy movement outside the house, and Wu Dasheng was about to open the door to blame, when a soldier knocked on the door and told:

"Prince, there is an express letter from the Eighteenth Prince!"

Wu Da glanced at Chang An and opened the door:

"Have someone come up." After speaking, he sat down with Chang An.

A soldier from the Northern Wei Dynasty was brought up, and the man gave a military salute to Chang'an, and handed Chang'an a letter, speaking concisely:

"Nanzhao shielded the traitor Zhang Yifu. The emperor was furious and ordered General Mo Bai to be the commander in chief, and the crown prince sent troops to Nanzhao for the general. At present..." The soldier thought for a while:

"At present, the army should have reached the Xi'er River."

Chang'an had roughly read the letter, and his face was full of worry. It was Mo Bai who sent the express letter to Chang'an before leaving.

Uda doesn't understand:

"It's just a small country in Nanzhao, why are you so worried?"

"The terrain in Yunnan is complicated. Although Nanzhao is small, there are deep mountains and jungles as a barrier, and the barbarians there are difficult to teach. The Yunnan appeasement envoys set up by the imperial court for decades have never appeased them. I have suffered losses in the past and almost I died there." Chang An shook his head, stood up and continued:

"Wuda, I'm sorry, I'm going back now. The master is from Xianbei and has never been to Yunnan. It's the first time for the prince to join the army. I'm worried that they will suffer at the beginning of the match."

Uda also solemnly nodded:

"Then you go, I will send another team of soldiers to follow you back."

Chang'an refused:

"The team of Qianniu Guards I brought is enough to protect us. We will be able to go back in a short time with light clothes." After speaking, Wu Shi rushed to the door and ordered:

"Change clothes and form a team, wait for me downstairs."

Wu Shi sullenly saluted and went downstairs.

Changan clasped fists at Uda:

"Brother, I will take my leave first!"

When Chang'an and others hurried back to the capital, Mo Baixueyi had already arrived at Nanzhao's capital, Dahe City, and the Northern Wei Dynasty was full of joy. He even thought that the army would bring the Nanzhao king back to the capital next month.

In the Zhengde Hall, Emperor Wei threw a report on Nanzhao's military situation on Chang'an's face, and he was already very angry:

"Look at the crown prince's report. The army can destroy the kingdom of Nanzhao as soon as it arrives at Dahe City, but you tell me that the crown prince is in danger. Why, can the army of Wei Dynasty be unable to win the battle without you?"

Chang An knelt down, his face resolute and resolute:

"Nanzhao Tuodong Jiedu envoy Chen Bing faced Jiannan Jiedu envoy, and guarded Yunnan with covetous eyes. Since Li Zheng defeated Zhang Yi, Yunnan began to transfer from the former government army and frontier army Fan army. Now Yunnan appeasement envoy Tian Hua is there If the recruits have not arrived, and the old soldiers have not left, if Tuodong Jiedu sees through the fakery of the soldiers in Yunnan and attacks rashly, will we save the 8 people who attacked Yamato City or not?"

Emperor Wei was very angry at first, but after listening to Chang'an's words, he also began to think. He only heard Chang'an continue to say:

"When General Mo Bai returns to rescue Yunnan, he will be attacked by Nanzhao Tuodong and Dahecheng troops from inside and outside. Who should save this lone army!" Chang'an was really anxious when he said that.

But the news that the army had attacked the city of Yamato made Emperor Wei relax his vigilance. He didn't believe that his army would really be trapped in Nanzhao, let alone with Mo Bai. Could it be that there were problems that Chang'an could think of that Mo Bai couldn't think of?

"You don't need to say much, go back and rest first, I will call you if something happens." Emperor Wei waved his hand to Chang'an.

Chang'an knelt down in front of Emperor Wei:

"I beg my father to allow my son to bring elite soldiers to Yunnan!"

Seeing Chang'an's stubborn look, Emperor Wei became even angrier. He slapped the table and cursed:

"Chang'an, do you understand? The prince joined the army for the first time, but you said that he was in danger and instead led the troops to rescue him yourself. You did this and left him everywhere? How will he behave in the army in the future?"

Chang'an's straight back froze, and he closed his eyes. He was just afraid that something might happen to Xueyi. On the way back from Yunzhong, he was very flustered. Even if he couldn't help him, he still wanted to see him.

Emperor Wei felt his head hurt badly, but Chang An still refused to leave.

Emperor Wei rubbed his forehead with his hands and said weakly:

"When you grow up and have your own ideas, I can't control you anymore. Don't disturb me here. If you want to kneel outside, I don't care about you anymore." After finishing speaking, she closed her eyes and turned her head to the side.

Chang'an gritted his teeth, got up and walked out of the Zhengde Hall, lifted his robe and knelt outside the door, Chang'an heard Wei Emperor angrily scolding Chang Mitou outside the door:

"Let him kneel! This bastard who doesn't know what to do!"

He calmed down and knelt outside the door silently. This time, there was no concubine of his mother to rescue him, nor Xue Yi to intercede for him. outside the door.

Everything recovers in March, and grass sprouts have escaped the severe cold of winter and sprouted green shoots.

It was still very cold in Beijing. Chang An only knelt for a while before he felt his legs were frozen on the icy white marble floor tiles and he lost consciousness.

Chang Mitou trotted over to pull him with the floating dust in his hands:

"Your Highness, don't worry, the prince will be fine, you can go back, it's... how cold in here!"

"Thank you, Eunuch Chang. Go back, I'm fine." Chang An didn't move, and Chang Mi couldn't pull him up, so he went back with a sigh.

The sun goes from high to low, from low to low, and the moon rises.

Chang Mitou looked out of the window from time to time with a worried expression on his face, Wei Di asked him:

"Still kneeling?"

"Well, I've been kneeling for four hours." Chang Mitou nodded hastily.

Emperor Wei continued to do the work at hand silently without saying a word.

At night, Chunlei rolled in the thick clouds, breaking the dullness of the night.Chang An looked at the dark sky being torn open by lightning one after another, and then the cold raindrops fell on Chang An's body from slow to fast, he raised his head, the rain flowed from his cheeks and soaked his clothes, the cold rain could not quench his heart It's piping hot.

"Your Majesty, it's raining." Chang Mitou reminded Emperor Wei in a low voice.

Wei Di hummed indifferently.

Chang Mi stepped back a little to look at Chang'an quietly, Chang'an's face was pale and he was about to faint.Chang Mitou secretly sighed.

Suddenly, Emperor Wei slapped the pen on the table, turned his face and scolded:

"This bastard who never let me worry! Let me bring him in!"

Chang Mitou quickly responded and called a few eunuchs to help Chang'an in.

Chang'an Station could not stand still, and was dripping wet, and was supported by eunuchs to barely stand upright.

Emperor Wei frowned, the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes were revealed, and his heartache flashed through his clear eyes and melted into the city that had been accumulated for many years.

"You are not allowed to lead the troops..." Before Wei Di finished speaking, seeing Chang'an opened his mouth vigorously, he continued:

"Listen to what I have to say first. Wu Shi, the governor of Qianniuwei, will lead two thousand Niuwei to help Yunnan's appeasement envoy Tian Hua secretly arrange the exchange of soldiers in Yunnan. You will accompany the army and be under Wu Shi's jurisdiction on weekdays. In emergencies, you can command Qianniuwei against the enemy..."

Chang'an's eyes suddenly brightened, only to hear Wei Di continue to say:

"But there is one thing, you are not allowed to tell anyone about your trip to Yunnan, even if you bump into Xue Yi, you are not allowed to let him know that it was you. Make Qianniuwei's people shut up."

Chang An laughed when he heard this, the heat in his eyes seemed to melt into the burning palace lanterns in the palace.

Before Chang'an left, Emperor Wei explained with a straight face:

"Remember what I said, if there is something wrong with you, I will let you go back to the Xianbei grassland and follow your uncle to herd the sheep."

Chang An agreed with a smile.

After Chang'an left, Emperor Wei finally looked worried.

Chang'an is like a burning flame, the vitality and unknown power make him worry endlessly, whether it is Chang'an's feelings for Xue Yi, or the possible confrontation between Chang'an as a prince and Xue Yi, the prince.

The soldiers of the Northern Wei Dynasty surrounded Dahe City and were attacked by [-] soldiers and horses of the Nanzhao Ailao tribe in Yongchang Town, losing [-] soldiers. During the breakout, a group of soldiers and horses led by Xue Yi were separated from the Chinese army.

Menlei exploded high in the sky, and the white shadows struck by lightning from time to time shone on Xue Yi's bloody face wearing a helmet. There were only ten personal guards around him, tightly protecting him inside, not far away. There were Ailao people who surrounded them, Xue Yi and the others were trapped on a cliff, unable to advance or retreat.

Xue Yi looked coldly at the group of barbarians who spoke words he didn't understand, with his left hand tightly holding a slightly curled knife that was pulled from the corpse of the Ailao people.

Some generals in Ailao pointed out to the soldiers what Xue Yi, who was guarded in the middle, said, and the eyes of those soldiers lit up for a moment, and their eyes were glued to Xue Yi, like those in the forest who couldn't kill them all. Leeches are generally greedy and disgusting.

"I'm afraid we won't be able to go back this time." The rain ran down Xue Yi's cheeks and flowed into his mouth, and he tasted his own blood, which was astringent and bitter.

Zhang Chao guarded Xueyi vigilantly:

"No, you still have to go back and inherit the Great Reign as the emperor of our Great Wei. You can't die here."

Xue Yi smiled and shook his head. He begged for a string of clam bracelets consecrated in Xiangguo Temple for Chang'an to bless Chang'an, but he forgot to ask for one for himself.

The Ailao people made up their minds that Xue Yi would not jump off the cliff. Under the command of the general, Xue Yi swarmed forward, and the guards around him numbly defended against the enemy. More and more guards fell down. Xue Yi gritted her teeth and watched the familiar young lives around her die, her body trembling slightly.

He shouldn't have been distracted by other things at this time, but he suddenly couldn't restrain his love for Chang'an. When Chang'an was only nearly 11 years old, he had to constantly feel the pain and heaviness beyond his age, and such pain It was he who brought it to Chang'an.

Zhang Chao was also seriously injured. A barbarian slashed open his stomach. He snarled and stuffed his intestines in and continued to kill the barbarian. His face was ferocious like a ghost.

The right hand is inconvenient, and Xue Yi, who only relies on the left hand, quickly loses strength. When a barbarian roared and thrust a sword into Xue Yi's shoulder, then pulled it out and chopped off his head, Xue Yi closed his eyes.

"His Royal Highness!!!" There was a familiar shout, but the expected pain did not appear, Xue Yi opened his eyes in doubt, all the barbarians around him were dragged by a group of people dressed in Qianniuwei who suddenly appeared on the opposite side, It's just that this group of Qianniuwei all covered their faces with black scarves.

Wu Shi took the time to shout to Xue Yi:

"Wu Shi, the governor of Qianniuwei, was ordered to meet His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

After speaking, a masked Qianniuwei hurried to Xue Yi's side without saying a word and helped Xue Yi.

Xue Yi didn't even have time to take a closer look at the Qianniuwei beside him, but she was overjoyed after hearing Wu Shi's words and helped Zhang Chao walk towards Wu Shi and the others.

In the rain, Xue Yi vaguely saw that the Qianniuwei next to him had a pair of bright eyes that were very familiar to him.

As soon as Xue Yi put Zhang Chao within the sphere of influence of Wu Shi and others, he saw a guard who had fallen down on the cliff in the distance staggering up. A personal guard walked over, wanting to bring him back, but he didn't notice that there was an Ailao man behind him raising a big knife at him.

There was a stabbing sound, the sound of flesh and blood being pierced by a sharp knife. The Ailao man grinned and pulled out the knife. Blood and rain splashed all over Xue Yi. Xue Yi opened his eyes wide and looked at the Qianniuwei who had been protecting him just now. Blocked the fatal knife for him, only to hear the man yell at Xueyi with all his strength:

"Follow Wu Shi!"

The moment Xue Yi heard those words clearly, his liver and gallbladder were torn apart:

"Chang'an!" The moment Xue Yi yelled out Chang'an's name, it seemed as if someone had strangled his neck, and he was suffocated for a while, and the knife seemed to have been pierced into his heart, causing him to distort his face in pain.

Why Chang'an?It turned out to be Chang'an!In the end it was Chang'an.

Chang'an pushed Xue Yi beside him away, the wound on his left chest spattered blood with his movements, chopped down the Ailao man who stabbed him, and fell straight to the cliff behind him.

In Chang'an's eyes, Xue Yi's face was terrified and dull, and the once warm eyes became blood red and fierce.

Xue Yi hooked the vines on the edge of the cliff with his feet and jumped out to grab Chang An's sunken body. Then he was horrified to find that it was his right hand, his stumped arm, that was holding Chang An's body:

"Chang'an, hold on to my hand, I will pull you up!"

Chang An, who had vacated his body, was already in a trance, but he still smiled and said:

"I promised my father that I would not let you know that I came to Yunnan to see you. Now, my father really wants me to go to Xianbei to herd sheep."

Xue Yi felt pain in his heart, he watched the hole in Chang An's left chest gushing out blood quickly, his eyes were blood red, and even his voice trembled:

"Quick, don't talk nonsense, just keep going, Wu Shi is coming soon..." As he spoke, tears flowed from Xue Yi's eyes and fell onto Chang An's face:

"Chang'an..." Xue Yi softly called Chang'an's name, her throat choked up.

"Brother Prince, don't cry, I owe you." Chang An's eyes were as gentle as ever.

"Nonsense!" Xue Yi roared angrily, then gritted his teeth and tightened his loosened hands, only to hear him suddenly soften his voice and say to Chang'an:

"Idiot, even if you owe me, you have already paid it off."

The fingernails of the right hand holding Chang'an's body were all broken off, revealing flesh and blood. How could the useless arm last so long? The arm convulsed and lost strength, and Chang'an fell down.

Xue Yi's eyes almost burst open:

"Chang'an!" Almost without hesitation, he let go of the vine with both feet and fell down with Chang'an.

Over the years, if I owe it to you, I owe it to you. If this is life, it would be clean for us to die like this.

The rain was still falling, and the cliff was filled with mist. Xueyi hugged Chang'an tightly during the fall. He cried in front of Chang'an for the first time. He cried just like Chang'an when he lied to Chang'an when he was a child and said: I don't want you anymore.

But now, Chang'an doesn't want him anymore.

The author has something to say: In this chapter, the author's eyes were red and he almost cried.This group of people in another world is always easily involved in your joy and sorrow.At this time, Xueyi really fell in love with Chang'an.

Another: Shengle is the ancient and modern city of Inner Mongolia and Linger County, and it was the capital of Xianbei in the Northern Wei Dynasty of China.

Yunzhong County is the Yunzhong in the word "Chijie Yunzhong, when will Feng Tang be sent", it is today's Tuoketuo County.

It is not false that the appearance of the Xianbei people in the Tuoba tribe is similar to that of today's white people.

Don't ask the author why he knows, because the author is from the city... a descendant of Yinshan and the Yellow River!Ha ha

The military system of the Nanzhao Kingdom is also a government military system, with six Jiedu envoys.The sergeant who manages 1000 people is called a commander, and the one who manages four commanders is called a general.
