The World of Yellow Sky

The Battle of Mobei may have already begun.

The mutual patience between the Eastern and Western Xianbei has reached the point of irreconcilability.

Xu An unfolded the letter in his hand, his expression slightly condensed.

Jian Man assembled more than [-] troops and invaded the hinterland of the Eastern Xianbei, approaching the Eastern Xianbei royal court. The Eastern Xianbei's performance was even worse than expected. Although Lu Bu had informed the Eastern Xianbei's Chanyu in advance, The Xianbei in the east is still retreating all the way, and the situation in Mobei is worse than originally expected.

Chapter 798 Mobei

At the foot of Danhan Mountain, flags are flying.

On the vast field not far away, a large number of Ming army cavalry wearing yellow scarves are moving quickly.

This used to be the place where Xianbei Shanyuting was located, but because of the split of Eastern and Central Xianbei, it no longer serves as Shanyuting.

The central Xianbei moved the Shanyuting to the northwest, and the eastern Xianbei moved the Shanyuting to the northeast. With the old Shanyuting as the boundary, they have been opposed for a long time.

Then the Taipingdao rose, defeated the Southern Huns, occupied Bingzhou, and finally recovered the Shanggu Wuhuan tribe, defeated the Western Xianbei, and finally established the hegemony of Monan.

After Yuan Shao intervened in the dispute between Mobei, Xu An also intervened in the dispute between Eastern, Central and Xianbei.

The central Xianbei surrendered, so Xu An sent troops north to help in the battle. The place that originally belonged to Xianbei Shanyuting also became the sphere of influence of Taipingdao.

Originally, the Duliao battalion led by Li De, the chief officer of the Duliao battalion, had been stationed in Yanmen County, but after Lv Bu led the Xiaoqi battalion to Mobei, he directly led the Xiaoqi battalion to station at the former Shanyuting of Xianbei. position, here to supervise every move of the central Xianbei.

The old Shanyu Court of Xianbei is located at the junction of the Eastern and Central Divisions, which is indeed conducive to supervision, but it is also extremely dangerous. Therefore, Li De has always been in the relatively safe Yanmen County.

But for Lu Bu, he naturally didn't care about these little dangers at all.

But even so, it was still seven days later when Lu Bu learned that Jian Man led an army to attack Xianbei in the east.

In order to deceive the Ming army stationed in the old Shanyuting, Jian Man chose to attack from the northern border.

Jian Man led the army to march from the north to the southern part of the Daxianbei Mountains (Daxing'anling). The Xianbei army in the middle was like a big hand, pressing down on the eastern Xianbei from above.

Although the eastern Xianbei was wary of Lu Bu's intentional release of the news, it was not as frantic as Jian Man. He recruited nearly 20 cavalry. The eastern Xianbei was caught off guard and retreated steadily, almost without defense.

Jian Man did a very good job of concealment. The Eagle Wolf Guards of the Ming army lurking in Mobei had no way of sending news from the northern border to Lu Bu's hands. The desert is the best cover provided by the heavens for the Xianbei people.

Jian Man scattered scouts on the grassland, and someone wanted to go south to pass on the news, but it was impossible to get past the Xianbei scouts who were elusive on the desert.

The news that Lu Bu got was not from the Eagle Wolf Guards lurking in Mobei. The news he got was actually from the nobles of the eastern Xianbei. news.

After all, Jian Man is the son of He Lian. He has the blood of Tan Shihuai, the blood of the one who led Xianbei to become the overlord of Mobei, and there are many people and tribes supporting him.

Xianbei in the east is weak, if not relying on Wei Ting's support, I'm afraid it would have collapsed by now.

The Eastern Xianbei, which lost the support of Wei Ting, is now unprecedentedly weak. Wuhuan, the three counties south of Yanshan Mountain, has cut off contact with them, and Wei Ting has also cut off contact.

They all know why, these things are not a secret in Nandi, and even Nandi deliberately released channels so that the eastern Xianbei can understand what happened in Nandi.

The dramatic changes in the Central Plains made the entire eastern Xianbei panic.

What they had been relying on all this time, the incomparably powerful Wei Ting was actually defeated...

And it was completely defeated, and the Han court in the farther south was also defeated. The [-] army was trapped in Fanyang, and was almost wiped out by the Ming army.

They never expected that in just a few months, the situation in the entire Central Plains would suddenly change beyond recognition. Everything happened so fast that they had almost no time to react.

Wuhuan of the three prefectures also chose to submit, and Gongsundu, the easternmost, had long been the prefect of the Ming court, and Fuyu and Goguryeo also paid tribute and were canonized by the Ming court.

It is said that North Korea's Sanhan has also been defeated by the Dongzheng Ming army, and now the entire eastern region is under the control of the Ming court.

The blue flags planted above the cities of Youzhou have all been replaced by the yellow flags of the Ming army.

As a result, the Xianbei in the east were panicked and had no peace.

The Ming court has always supported the central Xianbei, and the central Xianbei is fighting for power with them. Now without Wei Ting's support, they can't solve it even if they only face the central Xianbei. Now the Ming army occupies Youzhou , Subdued Wuhuan of the three counties.

It is absolutely possible to send Wuhuan of the Three Counties and Wuhuan of Shanggu to attack from the southeast to outflank their rear, and they have no way to resist.

But just when the Eastern Xianbei people were desperate and about to surrender, a letter sent from the Ming army to the Eastern Xianbei Shan Yuting made everyone in the Eastern Xianbei realize that things did not seem to be the end of the mountain.

The old Chanyu Court of Xianbei, at the foot of Danhan Mountain, the camp of the Ming army.

Two tall men dressed in furs, whose appearance was different from the Ming army around them, with darker complexion, stood at the gate.

Their attire was very eye-catching in the Ming army's camp. After all, the Ming army wore military uniforms with their hair tied around their right lapels, but these two men wore their hair on their left lapels, looking like Xianbei people.

The two of them are indeed Xianbei people, and they are Xianbei people from the east.

The two of them are not ordinary Xianbei people, they are both the younger brothers of the leader.

Named Fuluohan and Budugen, their status in the eastern Xianbei is second only to the leader.

The reason why they came to the camp of the Ming army was actually ordered by the leader.

The news that the western Xianbei was about to attack from the Ming army rekindled the hope of the people in the eastern Xianbei. They knew that the western Xianbei and the Ming court were not a piece of iron.

It seems that this time the Xianbei attack in the west, Ming Ting is against it.

As a result, Kuitou's mind became active. He didn't hesitate for too long. Not long after he was attacked by Xianbei in the west, he immediately sent envoys to the Ming army camp to ask to meet the chief officer of the Ming army in Mobei. Sincerely, Kui Tou asked his two younger brothers to serve as envoys.

The leader is not naive, nor stupid, after a period of thinking.

He understood why the Ming army sent him the message that Western Xianbei wanted to attack.

The idea of ​​the Ming army is very simple. For Ming Ting, their current focus is on the Central Plains, and it is difficult to control the northern border.

Therefore, for the Ming court, the split Xianbei is more beneficial.

The unification of Xianbei will inevitably expand, and if it expands, the bitter cold land in the north will be meaningless at all. The best place to expand is the Ming court now controlling the Monan area.

That's why Ming Ting sent him a message, hoping that the eastern Xianbei could withstand the offensive of the western Xianbei and maintain the current situation.

The leader was very clear about the reason why Ming Ting acted like this, but he still chose to continue sending envoys.

He knew that Jian Man was not stupid, and he also saw Ming Ting's thoughts, so he launched an attack against them without telling Ming Ting, in order to unify Xianbei, regain the initiative, and was unwilling to be Ming Ting's puppet.

Jian Man surrendered to Xu An before, and surrender to Ming Ting was only a temporary move, in order to offset the advantage that Xianbei in the east had when it had Wei Ting's support.

The Ming army's control over the central Xianbei is obviously not strong enough.

Kuitou figured out his joints, and couldn't help but have a little respect for Qianman.

This kid he watched growing up actually has such courage, much stronger than his father He Lian, and sometimes even has the shadow of Tan Shihuai.

Kuitou had also thought about the future in his heart, and he had a premonition that if Jian Man really unified the tribes of Xianbei...

Perhaps, Jian Man can lead Xianbei on a real road of prosperity, on a road of rise, and return to the appearance of Xianbei in its heyday...

It is even possible to enter the Central Plains...

In all fairness, what Jian Man is doing now is actually beneficial to Xianbei.

But now that the war has continued to this point, he and Jian Man have been fighting for the country for a long time. Even if he chooses to surrender, even if it is Jian Man, he will not let him go. He was slaughtered by Jianman.

In the Central Plains, the winner is the king, and the loser is the bandit.

On the grassland, everything is survival of the fittest, the winner is king, and the loser is exterminated...

The leader's idea is very simple. If his tribe is gone, what else should Xianbei do?

Even if you are a puppet and bow your head to surrender, as long as you can save the whole family, everything is worth it.

It's not that Xianbei has never been called a minister, nor is it that he has never been a puppet.

The leader didn't want to lose, and he couldn't lose. On the grassland, the fate of the defeated was too miserable, so he put all the last things on Ming Ting.

Fu Luohan looked at the soldiers of the Ming army walking around, and his heart became more and more cold. These Ming soldiers all looked tall and powerful, and they all carried a chilling aura on their bodies. The new recruits in the battle formation can be seen at a glance that they are definitely elites who have gone through hundreds of battles.

Fu Luohan was dazzled by the helmets and armor pieces. The Ming army's military equipment was far beyond his imagination.

The military equipment of the Ming army he saw along the way was even better than that of the cavalry army of the Wei army.

Fu Luohan had been guarding the Northland all along, and he had never really fought against the Ming army.

He originally sneered at the fact that the Ming army often used thousands or even hundreds of people to defeat its own cavalry with thousands of people, thinking that it was just some tribe's rhetoric for fearing the enemy and preserving their strength.

But when Fu Luohan entered the camp of the Ming army, he was sure that even if those tribes were really desperate, they might not be the opponents of the Ming army's cavalry.

Fu Luohan secretly looked at the scene of the Ming army camp, and he found that many people did not look like the Han people in the south, but more like the Huns who occupied the Hetao, and even saw the shadow of the Wuhuan people.

Those people seem to have no lower status in the army than the Han people. They all wear the same robes, with their hair tied on the right lapel, and they talk and communicate with each other very normally. in the sequence.

Fu Luohan frowned slightly. The tribes like Wuhuan and Xiongnu were attached to the Han court, and they often fought for the Han people, but most of them fought in the way of Yi Cong. They brought their own armor and weapons, and they would not change their robes. However, the Ming army was obviously very different from the original Han army, which made Fu Luohan feel more and more confused.

"The chief general of the Ming army is so arrogant..."

Budugen looked cold, and cursed in Xianbei in a low voice.

"It actually made us stand here and wait for more than an hour."

There was a little resentment in Bu Dugen's eyes. He knew that the chief general of the Ming army was going to give them another blow.

"Brother, why don't we leave now, they will definitely stay, and then the negotiations will have the upper hand."

"We were defeated, all the ministries of Xianbei were gathered by Jian Man, they were the ones who were so anxious."

"Even without the help of his Ming army, we can evacuate around the Great Xianbei Mountain and still protect the whole family."

"Ming Ting is in Monan now, they can't escape."

Fu Luohan's expression was slightly gloomy, and he glanced sideways at Budugen.

Seeing Fu Luohan's eyes, Bu Dugen subconsciously stopped speaking.

"Do you think that someone will really withdraw with us?"

"If Jianman is victorious, if we want to escape, we may escape halfway. Not to mention that people from other tribes want to take our heads to receive rewards, even people from our tribe may want to exchange our heads for life. Chance."

"Keep waiting."

Fuluohan thought deeper than Budugen, now that he is a Daozu and he is a fish, he has to bow his head under the eaves.

After waiting for another quarter of an hour, when even Fu Luohan and the others were a little restless, a civil servant from the Ming army came over.

"The camp is busy with military affairs, so I have neglected the two envoys. Please forgive me. General Zhengbei has invited the two envoys to enter the accounts."

The Ming military official spoke politely, but there was no trace of apology in his tone.

Fu Luohan and Bu Dugen were filled with gloom, and followed the civil official all the way forward.

Gradually going deep into the camp of the Ming army, the depression in Fu Luohan and Bu Dugen's hearts gradually dissipated, not because they were no longer angry, but because the changes in the camp of the Ming army left them no time to take care of their hearts. depression.

Fu Luohan and Bu Dugen were both secretly frightened by the heavily armed and hurried Ming army generals.

These Ming soldiers were obviously the first-class elites in the Ming army, and their killing spirit could not be faked at all.

It is precisely because they have been on the battlefield that Fu Luohan and Bu Dugen can tell at a glance whether they are really good at fighting.

Dozens of people, hundreds of people are like this, it is not scary, but if thousands of people are like this, everyone is like this, then it is a real horror.

"Please enter the account with two envoys."

The civil official who led the way didn't know the astonishment in the hearts of Fu Luohan and Bu Dugen, even if they knew, there would probably not be much disturbance in their hearts.

"Thank you, Shangguan, for leading the way."

Fu Luohan came back to his senses when he saw the big tent in front of him. He bowed slightly, imitating the appearance of the Han people, and bowed his hands to express his thanks.

"Come in quickly."

The Ming military officer didn't say much, he just waved his hands and walked away.

The two soldiers guarding outside the tent also lifted the curtain of the tent at this time.

Fu Luohan and Bu Dugen looked at each other, and after taking a deep breath, they walked side by side into the big tent slowly.

Stepping into the big tent, the eyes suddenly opened up.

In the big tent, a group of Ming army generals wearing military uniforms and swords sitting on chairs all turned their heads. The pressure on their faces made Fu Luohan hold his breath and stop in his tracks. Bu Dugen, like Fu Luohan, was not moving forward.

And just when Fu Luohan wanted to calm down his breathing and restore his posture, he suddenly felt his heart tense, the alarm sounded loudly, and a chill rose from the bottom of his heart.

that feeling...

Just like the feeling of being surrounded by wolves on the grassland under the dark night, it is the breath of death...

Do not……

Fu Luohan's heart trembled slightly. Although he had never seen a tiger, he had only seen leather.

But he felt that compared to being stared at by a pack of wolves, this feeling should be like being stared at by a tiger hidden in the jungle...
