Chapter 494 wait and see
The bitter cold in the northwest finally came to an end, and the spring that came two months later than the Central Plains seemed to arrive quietly overnight.Although the wind is still blowing from the north, it seems to be a lot milder. The climate seems to be warming up suddenly, and even winter clothes can't be worn.Although this place in the northwest is desolate, it can also stand up to the eight characters of the sky, the clouds and the magnificent mountains.
When Fang Jie climbed up the low mountain and fell among the dry grass, he suddenly found that under a thick layer of dry grass, he did not know when he had drilled a new layer of furry green, which was so eye-catching compared with the yellow and dry grass. Can't help but glance at this ordinary grass, seeing the prosperity in the withered.
The low mountain is currently controlled by the rebels, but no heavy troops are stationed.Fang Jie brought a few men who cultivated well to dive up in order to observe the war situation outside Xiping City.
The two sides have been fighting outside the city for more than ten days. Although the imperial army did not have an advantage in strength, it completely suppressed the rebels in momentum.In the face of the elite rebels gathered from all sides, these brave men who were still holding hoe sickles and farming for more than a year ago did not have any fear.
Because they have seen the hope of victory, because His Majesty the Emperor is beside them.
This low mountain is only ten miles away from Xiping City, and five miles down the hill is a rebel camp.
For three consecutive days, Fang Jie took people to this mountain every day to observe the war.There are not many rebels on this mountain, and it is not difficult to try to conceal their rebel soldiers from Fang Wei.He looked at the two torrents of Xiping City's diplomatic weave with a thousand eyes, and his face was calm.
People who have experienced war will have a very serious attitude towards the war. The people may laugh at the battlefield as a story after tea and dinner. But the soldiers who come from the blood of the corpse mountain, even if they calmly talk about the past years With a different kind of sadness.
Even if it is a winner, how can it not lose something?
It can be seen that the battle between the court and the horses is to be won again. The so-called elite of the rebels is not fundamentally stronger than the bravery of the court. They are only better than the ordinary rebels in equipment. There is no advantage at all.The morale of these brave and fierce battles, and the generals around the emperor are far better than the generals under Li Yuanshan's generals, so every day and every ninety-nine wars are won by the court.
Occasionally, the rebels took advantage of one occasion, but they could not recover the decadent morale.
"Another Battalion"
Wan Yanzhongde lowered Qianli eyes and said in a low voice: "Li Yuanshan's reinforcements are not available, and his defeat is only a matter of day." Sand also lacks mutual support, so if you continue, the morale will completely collapse in a short time. "
Fang Jie nodded: "It's not the last time yet, don't forget that Li Yuanshan still has at least 60,000 real elites. Those soldiers who used to be the right guards of Da Sui are not comparable to other rebels. However, during the past few days of observation, I did not see a flag of soldiers on the side of the court, indicating that the emperor was carrying bravery. With the 60,000 elites in his hand, Li Yuanshan could not stop even if he wanted to go to the court. "
The situation on the front battlefield is already clear. Without waiting for the support of other battalion rebels, the rebels in this battalion were generally defeated by the court troops.
Fang Xie turned over and lay down in the grass, no longer going to see the battle: "The flying fish robe and scouts sent out have not returned yet. We don't know where the cavalry of Mengyuan Barbarian and Luo Yao's left forward went. This battle Still full of variables. "
"Your Majesty the Great Sui should be confident."
Wan Yan Zhongde was silent for a while and said, "Although I have not seen him, I know that he is a very wise and great monarch. Such a supreme master of the Central Plains has already arranged all the preparations before doing anything. ... "
Fang Jie knows that Yan Yande is right. People like the emperor will not be confused even if they fall ill. Even if the emperor has the kind of punishment that wiped out Li Yuanshan before he died, Fang Jie does not believe that the emperor will be willing to suffer. In the eyes of the emperor Here, his life could not be changed by Li Yuanshan's life.
"Let's keep waiting?"
Wan Yande asked.
"Keep waiting"
Fang Jie nodded.
He lay in the grass and looked at the blue sky, all he had in mind was what could happen.Up to now, in fact, the development of the matter has exceeded Fang Jie's prediction on Lang Ru Mountain.When he led the soldiers out, he didn't expect that in the final battle, he could not see the shadow of Meng Yuan Langqi and Luo Yao.
Are those wolf riders staring and waiting somewhere, or have they joined the war in unknown places?
Where did Luo Yao's hundreds of thousands of troops go?
He lay there, and suddenly found a huge bird nest on the tree not far away, and did not know what the home of the wild birds was. Several small birds protruded from the nest and tweeted, waiting for their parents to bring Come back to food.A python that woke up from hibernation crawled up the tree trunk, and it seemed that the target was the nestling bird.
Seeing this scene, Fang Jie's eyes suddenly light up.
"I know……"
He sat up and picked up a small stone, which was hitting the python's head with a snapping sound, and the thick python's body twitched and fell off the tree.
"what did you say?"
Wan Yande asked.
Fang Xie looked back at the battlefield and murmured: "Luo Yao is no longer interested in the emperor. Perhaps he already knows that the emperor is seriously ill, so he came to the northwest this time to do something like that, to Li Yuanshan to see it for the emperor. See, only in this way, the emperor and Li Yuanshan will be assured to act according to their own arrangements. But Luo Yao did not plan to blend into the northwest from the beginning, he came only to promote the end of the earlier. Once the emperor In a decisive battle with Li Yuanshan, Luo Yao will withdraw and retreat ... his goal is never the emperor, but Chang'an City. "
"The eagle came out to prey for the next generation, but the python stared at the young eagle in the eagle's family."
Fang Jie rubbed his wrinkled brows: "Hopefully the emperor will decorate ... and now it's just hope."
...
...
Only one morning the confrontation between the two sides ended. The rebels were defeated. The imperial army had drove the rebels gathered from Xiping City to the sides. The rebels who tried to fight against the imperial court were finally defeated because of insufficient strength.Or knowing that it is no longer possible to carry out the original design, Li Yuanshan ordered the various rebels to gather on the northwest side of Xiping City, and after three days of contention, the east of the city south was thrown away.
More than 400,000 court troops and nearly 500,000 rebels gathered in Xiping City, a place that hardly appeared in the history books before. It is undeniable that regardless of the final outcome of this war, the weight of the three words Xiping City will be Became very heavy.The history book will use the strongest ink to write this battle, no matter what it means to write.
When Fang Jie returned to the army station, the sky was already dark. After the supper, he rested on the stone and rested. Because he wanted to avoid the rebel scouts, the army did not set up tents or fire. The rest was just wrapped in a blanket. lying on the grass.
Mu Xiaoyao sat down next to him and looked at the bright stars in the sky: "Jiuxiao, should I continue to wait?"
Fang Xing yelled very lightly.
"why?"
Mu Xiaoyao asked: "You are a sensible person, but this trip itself is not a sensible thing, and now the situation is chaotic, no one knows how the ending will be, and the military of all parties may become the winner. You With these three thousand cavalry in the gap, one accidentally gets involved. "
"I know"
Fang Jie nodded: "I am selfish, but I have to do this."
Mu Xiaoyao said very softly: "If only us are following you, I won't ask why you do anything. But now it's not just us who are with you, but also the three thousand cavalry. They are now I do n’t understand, what are you doing here with them? "
"Wait and watch."
Fang Xie paused and said, "I know that it's really selfish to do this. I have drawn thousands of people to accompany my thoughts ... I originally thought that the emperor wanted to use his bait to lead the Quartet to fight, because he had already I'm sick and I'm not afraid of death. Although it is not what I expected, I am thinking that he should not be a kind of prisoner of war or a person who is besieged. I know that the emperor still does not believe me in his heart, but he But it gave me the trust to the maximum. I always do n’t want to owe others, so I can save him once and save the trust that he gave him afterwards. "
"But now it seems that the emperor may not lose."
Mu Xiaoyao was silent for a while and said, "You said that he is not the kind of person who can be easily defeated."
"Yes"
Fang Jiedao said: "From the war situation, the emperor may not necessarily lose. He must have a strong backhand, and he may have already exhibited it, but he is still using his own bait or his own life as a bet. So even if he wins, he is not a winner. Let an emperor make a bet with his own life, even if it is a surviving life. This is a defeat in itself ... I just want to pay back some of his favors. Stumble ... "
"Solution ..."
"Ok?"
"I am very happy."
"why?"
Fang Jie looked at Mu Xiaoyao and asked.
"Because you are still you, it has never changed."
Mu Xiaoyao smiled and his eyes were bright: "You will never be the kind of person who gives up all feelings for the purpose. Perhaps this character is very disdainful to other successful people, but we are very happy that you are still you. Maybe You wo n’t end up standing higher than everyone else, but that ’s not necessarily unsuccessful. ”
Fang Xie understood Mu Xiaoyao's meaning, only to find that he ignored their feelings.Their actions have indeed changed a little since they took the soldiers, and perhaps they have been worried.
He smiled and embraced Mu Xiaoyao's shoulder and said, "Maybe I am a bit different from the people in this world, there are always things I can't do."
Mu Xiaoyao laughed, too, and was very happy.
At this moment, suddenly a flying fish robe ran from a distance, and hurriedly came to Fang Jie: "General, Chen Baihu, they are back!"
Fang Jie immediately got up and strode forward.
After Fang Jie left, Shen Qingfan appeared beside Mu Xiaoyao.She looked at Fang Jie ’s back disappearing in the dark, and after a long silence, she suddenly sighed: “It ’s very difficult for him to get to this stage with his temperament. Some, how hard he will be in the future. For us, the unchanging solution is a relief, for him ... he will work harder. "
"But you have said something wrong."
Shen Qingfan smiled at Mu Xiaoyao and said, "I've always been more accurate than you see people ... he won't lose to any opponent. So, maybe your last sentence may not stand better than others. Gao is wrong, don't believe we will wait and see. "
