Qing Jialu

Chapter 213 Set the Storm

On the eve of the war, there was a heavy snowfall on the grassland.The snowflakes are flying, dressing up the world as a world of pink makeup and jade.Looking at the vast expanse of whiteness in the distance, Xiao Yi and Wei Mo knew in their hearts that the agreed time had finally arrived.The decisive battle is approaching, and Ouyang Xing's messenger is probably on his way.

Wei Mo ordered troops on the stage, and selected 5 horses from Shenji Battalion and [-] cavalry from Xining.In addition to the new guns, the Shenji Camp also brought old firearms.And Xiao Yi led the remaining soldiers to guard Xining City, stabilize the rear, and ensure the transportation of grain and grass.

On the second day of December, Ouyang Xing's messenger arrived and set the location for the surprise attack.Without further ado, Wei Mo re-entered the grassland with his army.Xiao Yi boarded the tower again and watched the soldiers of Daliang set off.

I remember last time, Xiao Yi was also standing here to see off Wei Mo and the soldiers.But at that time, he was worried about whether his body could hold on, Wei Mo's safety, and Shen Jia.But now with Shen Jia accompanying him to see off the soldiers, he no longer worries about the future and can relax.

Besides, Xiao Yi believes that this battle will be won!

They had discussed a detailed battle plan with Ouyang Xing before, and asked Ouyang Xing to lead [-] soldiers to the royal court to lure the enemy, pretending to be defeated, and let Ouyang Yu lead his troops to pursue the victory.At this time, Ouyang Xing led Ouyang Yu's troops to the appointed place, where Wei Mo set up an ambush, and the two attacked back and forth, completely annihilating the enemy.

Daliang has new firearms, no matter how many people Ouyang Yu brings, they will surely win.

After all, the gap that weapons make is huge.John was right, the new firearms were unimaginably powerful.

After the army set off, Xiao Yi and Shen Jia stayed in Xining with nothing to do, the only thing they did was to wait for the battle report ahead.

So Xiao Yi took Shen Jia to wander around the border, not only went to various corners of Xining City, but also visited the grassland and saw the Yellow River.And Shen Jia was very curious about where Xiao Yi grew up, and kept asking questions.

"Have you and Ouyang Xing been to these places?" Shen Jiashen asked.

Xiao Yi smiled, "I've been there, why, are you jealous?"

"Yes, I'm jealous." Shen Jia said angrily, "You start from the beginning, how did you meet Ouyang Xing, how did you get acquainted, and how did you fall out."

"It's a long story." Xiao Yi looked into the distance, "Ouyang Xing and I met in the cell of Xi'ou. At that time, the old king of Xi'ou harassed the border and captured many Liang soldiers. They treated the prisoners Severe torture, I refused to obey, and was knocked out. When I woke up, I found that I was saved by a child, and that person was Ouyang Xing."

Shen Jia remembered the past that Ouyang Xing had mentioned to him. Ouyang Xing had saved Xiao Yi once.

"What happened later?" Shen Jia asked.

"Later, Ouyang Xing asked me to follow him and be his slave. I didn't agree, and he didn't force him. He probably wanted to tame him slowly. Unfortunately, at this time, Ouyang Xing couldn't protect himself. He was kicked out of the royal court and sent to Qilian Mountain."

Shen Jia suddenly realized, and said: "So, you went to Qilian Mountain with him?"

"Yes." Recalling the past, Xiao Yi sighed, "That was the first time I came to the foot of Qilian Mountain, and saw the endless snow-capped mountains, as beautiful as a fairyland. I felt the vastness of the world, and my own troubles were so small, so there is the courage to live."

"You, you don't want to be Ouyang Xing's slave, would rather die than surrender, want...to commit suicide?" Shen Jia was shocked.He couldn't imagine the humiliation and abuse that Xiao Yi, who was still a young man, suffered alone in the enemy camp.

"At that time, I was young and energetic, so I couldn't accept such a blow for a while, and I couldn't escape from Xiou back to Daliang by myself. When I was in despair, I thought that if I was really left in Xiou as a slave, it would be better to die. To preserve the dignity of the royal family." Xiao Yi said lightly, "Unfortunately, when I committed suicide for the first time, Ouyang Xing found out, he tied my hands and feet, gagged my mouth, and prevented me from committing suicide again. Later he guessed My identity is different from other captives, so I will no longer make it difficult for me to be his slave."

"So, you became friends?" Shen Jia asked.

"Ouyang Xing and I are in the same boat. He was squeezed out by his elder brother and sent to a remote place, and I was the same." Xiao Yi was also sent to the Northwest from the capital, and he continued calmly, "Until he took me to Only after seeing Qilian Mountains can we really make friends."

Shen Jia didn't expect that the story of Snow Mountain was so complicated, so it's no wonder Xiao Yi never forgot about Qilian Mountain.

"Fortunately, Jiang Ji found me and brought me back to Daliang. I thought I would never see Ouyang Xing again, but Ouyang Xing was squeezed out by his elder brother again, and moved south from Qilian Mountain again, and it was almost the border with me." Xiao Yi continued, "I met him again in the private market on the border. At this time, Wei Mo was also there. The three of us became acquainted and often played together."

Shen Jia opened her mouth wide, "Can Xiou people and Daliang people come and go as they please?"

"When it's not a war, the guards are not strict. The people of the two countries often come to each other in private and buy and sell in the private market." Xiao Yi explained, "The people in Daliang brought silk and tea to exchange for precious medicinal materials, cattle and sheep from Xiou."

"It turns out that the two sides exchanged goods more than 20 years ago." Shen Jia rubbed his chin, "After the war is over and Ouyang Xing takes power, our two countries will trade with each other, and we can trade in a fair manner."

"Indeed, their grapes are not bad." Xiao Yi said, "Ouyang Xing often brought us to eat, and Wei Mo and I gave him the best tea."

"Why did they fall out again later?" Shen Jia remembered that at the beginning, Xiao Yi had a very bad attitude towards Ouyang Xing, and he didn't even want to lend him a soldier.

Speaking of this matter, Xiao Yi frowned, "It wasn't because of the great war in the 40th year of Hongwu, but what caused the war may be a misunderstanding."

"Misunderstand?"

Xiao Yi nodded and repeated Wei Mo's analysis.Shen Jia was shocked and angry when she heard this, she didn't expect Jiang Ji to be so selfish and sacrifice tens of thousands of lives to pave the way for his official career.

"That's why I hate war." Shen Jia said coldly, "Jiang Ji's death is not enough to cause civilian anger."

Shen Jia's words sealed Jiang Ji's life and death, and I am afraid that he will not be able to continue to spend his old age in the imperial tomb.

"Do you remember the name of my sword?"

"The name of this sword is 'Zhi Ge'. It was not drawn out for conquest, but to stop Ge." Shen Jia remembered it clearly, and the word was correct.

Xiao Yi touched the sword on his waist, "Yes, so I hope that this battle can end the grievances and grievances between the two countries, and maintain peace for a hundred years."

In the [-]th year of the Qing Dynasty, on December [-]th, the Second Prince of Xiou and General Wei Mo attacked from both sides and defeated Ouyang Yu's troops.In this battle, more than [-] enemies were wiped out and [-] were captured. The eldest prince of Xiou, Ouyang Yu, was killed by Wei Mo. The Xiou clan embraced the second prince, Ouyang Xing, as the new king of Xiou.

From then on, Xiou and Daliang formed a brotherly alliance, and the two countries traded with each other and never invaded.
