Save my wife all over the world
Chapter 13 The Emperor and the Empress (2)
============================
As the princess left, the door gradually closed.The originally silent hall suddenly became noisy.
"Zhuzi really went too far! How dare you to torture me like this?"
"Rou Ru just vomited! How dare you say that when His Highness is here?"
"What should we do now?"
"Master Chen, what do you think?"
The old man with a round face and white beard did not know when he was beside Chen Moxian, his eyes were looking forward, but he was asking him a question.
"How does this officer know?"
Chen Moxian lowered his eyes, and leisurely picked up the small dishes on the table and stuffed them into his mouth, as if these disturbances would not affect him.
The old man shook his head in disappointment and said nothing.
When Gu Zhong rushed to the northern border pass, the barbarians were attacking the city in full swing.
The military tents set up inside the pass stretched for hundreds of miles, and within fifty miles outside the pass were the organs for targeting the barbarian cavalry, such as horse ropes and inverted spurs. There was originally a ten-foot-wide moat, but under the cold weather, it had already formed a thick wall. The ice layer, stepping up the horse is also like walking on the ground.
A group of people went straight to the central army, raised the curtain, and brought a gust of cold wind into the camp. Wei Wuhou was deducing the battle situation of the two sides on the sand table, when he looked up and saw Gu Zhong, he bowed his hands and saluted briefly.
"Your Highness! Please forgive me for not being able to fully salute while wearing armor."
"It's okay, Master Hou has worked hard in the army, how is the battle going now?"
Gu Zhong quickly stretched out his hands to help the old Wei Wuhou, and walked to the sand table.
"The barbarian raids are coming fiercely. Fortunately, the northern border army has not slackened its regular preparations and responded well. It has stabilized its position. This battle depends on the command and combat strength of both sides, and it is now fighting fiercely."
In this way, the Northern Border Army still has the upper hand. The Northern Border Pass is not too far from the city of Beiling County, and there are official roads in the middle, so the supply of food and grass is not a problem.
Once caught in a bitter battle, the barbarians are the first to be unable to hold on, unless they can break through the northern border pass in a very fast time.
"It's strange to say that this year's severe cold, the entire northern territory has suffered a snow disaster that is rare in a century, the situation of the barbarians should be even more difficult, but I just climbed up to wait and see. The barbarians who raided today are powerful, and it doesn't seem like they have been hit by a disaster. look." Wei Wuhou then reported another matter.
"Master Hou, can you guarantee that the leaders of the Northern Frontier Army and the guards of Beiling County can be trusted?"
Gu Zhong casually picked up a few military reports from the table and scribbled through them, frowning.
"The safety of the northern border is a matter of great importance. The people stationed on the border are all loyal people who accompany His Majesty to fight the world. They should be trustworthy."
Wei Wuhou heard what Gu Zhong meant, and turned pale with shock, "Your Highness suspects that someone is collaborating with the enemy?"
"In the army or in the city, I can't be sure. I'm just a reminder. If it's just a battle, my Gu family will fight the world from the horse. I have never been afraid of anyone. I am afraid of the villain's plot and the enemy. Hou Lord, this Beiling is full of dangers, please be careful."
"Master Hou, can you climb up to watch the battle?"
Ling Yan was silent before, carefully looked at the deduction sand table, and suddenly asked.
"Of course it is possible." Marquis Wei Wu glanced at her wonderingly, this Grand Tutor has never been interested in military affairs, how could he be interested in watching such battlefields now.
Marquis Wei Wu took Ling Yan and Gu Zhong out of the camp, climbed up to the watchtower, the moon was just rising, taking advantage of the firelight in the camp, he saw the mighty barbarian army charging to and fro dozens of miles away, and the galloping horses brought up the overwhelming dust .
Ling Yan narrowed his eyes slightly and looked seriously at the direction of the battlefield. After thinking for a moment, his expression suddenly changed.
"Your Highness! Lord Marquis, please keep [-] troops to garrison, and the rest will return to defend the city of Beiling County. This is a plan to attack the west and encircle Wei to save Zhao!"
"What did you see, sir?"
Gu Zhong had never seen her act like this before, so his expression froze.
"It's too late to elaborate, please give orders to Your Highness and Lord Hou!"
Seeing Ling Yan's anxious expression, out of trust in his husband, Gu Zhong stopped asking why, and asked Wei Wuhou to follow Ling Yan's instructions.
After a few breaths, the military defense dispatch has been completed.
While galloping on horseback, Marquis Wei Wu couldn't help asking.
"Master Ling may have cleared up the confusion at this time?"
"Master Hou should find out that this battle of the barbarians is unusual and they fought strangely." Ling Yan thought for a moment, and started from the situation of the battle.
"Indeed, it is completely inconsistent with the style of fighting to the death in the past. It seems to be preserving strength. The thunder is heavy and the rain is small..." Wei Wuhou agreed with this very much.
If the barbarians could know how to advance and retreat in this way, they would not be the confidants of all dynasties.What's more, it coincides with a catastrophe, and it is really useless to fight such a hastily without desperately fighting for a way out.
So what are they plotting?Just to prevent Gu Zhong from investigating the remnants of the former dynasty's spies in the city?This battle is really unnecessary. Once the fighting is over, it will be enough to take care of it and clean up the chaotic party.
"The so-called army of the barbarians here is less than [-], the momentum is huge, and the smoke and dust are hazy, it is all an illusion, it is nothing more than a deceptive method of using brooms to tie the tails of cattle and sheep, and placing straw figures on them.
The real army only had the first formation, and the northern border army only cared about defense and never rushed into the formation, so they couldn't see through it for a while. "
Ling Yan is familiar with the art of war, but not as good as Wei Wuhou, but in the past, all the battles with the barbarians were pure force, and the barbarians are not used to playing tricks, but it made Wei Wuhou fall into a blind spot, and he couldn't understand their strategies for a while. .
"It seems that the barbarians have been guided by an expert..." Gu Zhong's expression turned ugly.
"Before I came to the pass, someone tied a piece of cloth on my horse."
Ling Yan took out a piece of brocade cloth, a special product from the northern border, from his wide sleeves. On it were brightly colored large characters, "Tune the tiger away from the mountain, the city is in danger!"
"I don't dare to believe it. Fang came to the pass to check. Now it seems that the news is true."
"Even if it is true, if the remaining army of the barbarians wants to attack the city of Beiling County, how will they bypass the Northern Border Pass?"
Wei Wuhou still had doubts about Ling Yan's judgment.
The city of Beiling County is surrounded by mountains on three sides, and it is difficult to climb. It is a natural barrier against the enemy. Only the Northern Border Army is stationed at the Northern Border Pass.
"Does Hou know about the avalanche that happened a few days ago?"
Ling Yan lowered her eyes and recalled the sand table she had just seen in Wei Wuhou's camp.
"The day His Highness was assassinated?"
Marquis Wu of Wei frowned, apparently not expecting that Xue Beng would have anything to do with the barbarian invasion.
"The snow piled up under the Xuebeng Mountain is nearly two feet deep. I wonder if Master Hou can remember the direction of the terrain in the east? I just saw a strange terrain landscape on the terrain sand table, winding into Beiling County from the east.
Usually, the passage here is narrow and low, and the lower part is full of naturally formed stalagmite barbs that are as high as people, which are extremely hard, and the upper part is full of cliffs, and no one can pass through.If one unfortunately falls into this place, unless one has an indestructible body, one will be pierced to the core.
But if there is snow to completely bury these barbs, the natural danger will be eliminated, and a wide road will be opened directly, and the army of vehicles and horses can pass through.If I remember correctly, this terrain leads to one of the lower counties under the jurisdiction of Beiling County, Qingshui County, which is only half a day's walk from the city of Beiling County..."
No one expected that one day, the dangers of the sky would become smoother, and no one would imagine it as wildly as Ling Yan, but if it was true as she said, Beiling would be really dangerous!
The person who organized the layout is also a genius of the sky, planning in many ways, if there were no two accidents of Ling Yan and Chen Moxian, Gu Zhong would have died long ago.
The princess was assassinated, the morale of the army was in turmoil, and then the barbarians were attracted to invade on a large scale, and the inside and the outside cooperated to sneak through Chencang. If everything went well, the entire Beiling might fall overnight.
Thinking about it, it should be Chen Moxian who rescued Gu from the crisis and turned the tide with all his strength, and finally won the trust of the princess.
Now since he came to Beiling, Chen Moxian has done nothing and has no intention of taking any action at all, instead he indirectly saved Gu Zhong's life.
If it is self-directed and self-acted, just to win Gu Zhong's trust, it would be too much effort and a lot of sacrifice.
Even if this person wanted to show his face in front of Gu Zhong at first, his way of acting was just to make himself a capable minister, but after a few lukewarm soft nails from Gu Zhong, he seemed to have given up on this idea , I haven't gone around in front of Gu Zhong for a long time.
For some reason, Ling Yan believed that the piece of cloth was arranged by Chen Moxian.Only those who know the layout and planning can issue such an early warning.
For all these oddities, Ling Yan prefers that there were factional disputes in the chaotic party of the previous dynasty, and the people who planned a series of events in the northern border were not from the same faction as Chen Moxian, and there was a big difference.
Looking at it now, Chen Moxian, the so-called former prince, seemed a little aggrieved, he didn't have much right to speak, he couldn't stop the implementation of the plan, he could only sabotage it secretly.
For example, the matter of saving Gu Zhong, and the matter of calling the police should all be Chen Moxian's own opinion.
It's a pity that because of Ling Yan's existence, all the actions that could have won Gu Zhong's favor were made of wedding dresses for her.
There is no doubt that even if it seems that Chen Moxian is on their side now, his identity as a traitor and traitor who intends to overthrow the dynasty will not change.
He should also have his own plan, and Gu Zhong is the most important part of it. He must not die in the north right now.
It's just that right now, he can't dictate many things.
Dividing and transforming, Ling Yan had this idea in his mind, if the rebels could fight among themselves first, cut off the spider webs they had woven for so many years, and cut off their wings, it would be much easier to clean up afterwards.
No one thought of defending against the barbarians from the south, and the night is the best cover for a sneak attack.
The soldiers on the city wall who had just changed defense were still reminiscing about the braised pork for dinner, which was specially stewed by his wife for him when he was going to work the night shift today.
A hook came silently from behind, and before he had time to react, he was hooked and headed off.
None of the guards at the east city gate had time to send out the whistle of the enemy's attack, and all of them were killed in silence.
The gate of the city was opened from the inside to meet the iron hooves of the barbarians.
"Boys! Go! Gold, silver, fine wine, and women are waiting for us!"
The ivory horn of attack was sounded, and the barbarians like tigers, leopards and wolves rushed into the city wielding scimitars, burning, killing and looting wantonly.
"Enemy attack! Enemy attack!"
"Barbarian! It's a barbarian!"
"How did they get in here?"
"Where's the Northern Army?!"
"Quick! Report to the Sheriff!"
As the princess left, the door gradually closed.The originally silent hall suddenly became noisy.
"Zhuzi really went too far! How dare you to torture me like this?"
"Rou Ru just vomited! How dare you say that when His Highness is here?"
"What should we do now?"
