Memoirs of the Heavenly Khan

Chapter 55 Ohno So is a loyal man

Shengle, the Northern Wei army camp.

There are endless large tents everywhere, and it is very convenient to get water and defend here, and there is even enough space for local farming.

Behind the Wei army camp, you can see the "Ji Shang Sai Wei" standing in the northern border to protect Dai land.

The Great Wall is like a natural moat, separating Hengzhou and Shuozhou.

Now that both the Eastern and Western Chiles have rebelled, Li Chong, with his main force, dares not go too far.

Pingcheng is the front line for protecting Hebei and Shanxi. Its military defense is strong, but it also requires sufficient manpower to defend it.

Li Chongming knew that it was too risky to lead his troops out of the Great Wall at this moment.

But Yunzhong had to be rescued!
If Yunzhong falls, the Six Garrisons Army will not only gain a solid city as a forward base, but also a large area of ​​fertile land around Yunzhong that can be used for farming and grazing.

After gaining a firm foothold, the Six Garrisons Army will push its troops into Hengzhou.

This is just a military consideration. More importantly, if Yunzhong is lost, the imperial court will not be able to explain it.

I hope that kid knows the seriousness of the matter!
This is the only hope Li Chong has in his heart!

Inside the big tent, half of the generals who can discuss military affairs with the Grand Commander Li Chong are now gone.

The tent was empty, but no one dared to make a sound.

Until a cry was heard.

"Grand Commander, the generals died tragically!"

Hearing this familiar voice and looking at this familiar figure, Li Chongxin thought it was over!
I hope that this kid can know the importance of things, but I might as well hope that Li Shengui will not go to the brothel!

"Ma Yi Shou, what exactly happened?"

When the generals saw this, they were all surprised and hurried to ask.

Li Shuang choked and tears streamed down his face helplessly.

"My troops were the vanguard. When we reached the mountain pass, we encountered the rebels from the Six Garrisons. A fierce battle ensued. All the generals followed closely behind us, rushing to our rescue. Unfortunately, those rebels were too powerful, and we were no match for them. In the end, I was the only one who led our troops out!"

"Generals, you are so loyal and righteous! For the court and the people, for the military duties entrusted to you by the Grand Commander, some were shot by dozens of arrows, yet you still pressed forward, fighting the rebels, your robes stained with blood, yet you never looked back."

As soon as Li Shuang finished speaking, the tent fell silent.

Li Chong remained silent, while Fei Mu was like an ant on a hot pan. The other generals looked at the half-empty tent, and then looked at Li Shuang, the only one who came back. They couldn't help feeling a chill in their hearts, and their eyes were filled with fear.

Only one person, General Li Shengui of Pingbei, had tears in his eyes.

The little pearls keep falling down!

"Brother, you've suffered so much!"

As he said that, Li Shengui stepped forward, hugged Li Shuang, and cried with him.

Li Shuang cried even louder.

"It's all my fault. I'm incompetent! You generals, you were all loyal and capable, but you died on the battlefield trying to save me. If I could, I would rather die there than let you all be safe."

"It's not your fault, the rebels are just too cunning!"

The generals in the big tent were used to seeing big storms.

At first, they felt apprehensive, suspecting a conspiracy. But with Li Shengui's involvement, and the touching sight of the sworn brothers hugging and weeping, they wondered if they had been overthinking things.

In addition, Li Shuang’s crying and sad expression are indeed a true expression of her true feelings!

Could the truth be just as Li Shuang said?

"I'm heartbroken, so heartbroken!"

"Brother, please don't do this. It might hurt you. The generals in heaven wouldn't want to see you like this."

"When you, the generals, said goodbye to me, you joked that if they couldn't return from this battle, you asked me to take good care of their wives and daughters. I never expected that... I never expected that! If your spirits are in heaven, please rest assured that I will definitely fulfill your last wish!"

"Brother, you are truly a loyal and honest person!"

At this time, the other generals also came out and joined the battle.

"General Pingbei, we won't let any of the defenders of Mayi suffer any loss. We will also take care of the wives and daughters of those generals who died!"

Li Shengui comforted Li Shuang half an hour later.

"Alright, you guys go down first. I still have some details to ask the Mayi Guard."

Li Chong only left Li Shuang behind. Seeing that he was still crying, his words were filled with a bit of irritability and dissatisfaction.

"You keep crying, don't you? You're even acting with me!"

"The emotions are here, plus..."

"what?"

"The information that bastard Hou Jing gave me was too strong. I can't stop it even if I want to!"

Li Chong waved his hands, very dissatisfied.

"You've dealt with Yuan Shen's former subordinates, but every one of them has connections to Luoyang. We've lost troops and morale, and the crisis in Yunzhong remains. If someone rebels, how will I explain it to the court?"

"Don't worry, Grand Commander, the siege of Yunzhong has been lifted!"
-
"How come they withdrew their troops after winning the battle?"

In Li Shuang's tent, gathered Yang Kan, Gao Gao, Yu Jin, Hou Jing, She Digan and others.

After hearing the news, She Digan touched his head and asked in confusion.

Li Shuang smiled and explained:
"Huolü Jin was originally a heroic general of the Chile tribe, with great prestige. Now that he had triumphed over the government forces, Po Liu Han Kongque feared he could no longer control him, so he recalled him from the front lines. Without Huolü Jin, the rest of the tribes scattered."

Yu Jin was a little worried.

"Mayi Shou, the remaining tribes in Shuozhou that are still loyal to the court need to be appeased. The morale of the garrison troops in Yunzhong City is low. I'm afraid that sooner or later we will lose the city."

Shuozhou has been swept by the Six Garrisons rebels, and most of the state has been emptied out due to the refugee-style fighting.

Villages and pastures were reduced to ruins, and the people were swept into the ranks of the rebels.

There are large tracts of fertile land surrounding Yunzhong City, but under such circumstances, it is impossible to operate on them.

The food and grass in the city can only be transported from Hengzhou. The mountains are high and the roads are long. If this continues, it will not be sustainable in the long run.

Yu Jin's face was full of worry and he couldn't think of a solution.

Li Shuang nodded.

"This is easy. Implement the three strategies for suppressing bandits in Shuozhou as soon as possible."

"Ok?"

When Hou Jing and She Digan heard this, they became excited.

"You all don't know what kind of predicament the rebels in the Six Garrisons have reached now that the three strategies for suppressing bandits have been implemented. For example, even though Hulu Jin won this battle, the reward for his subordinates was still paid by me."

Yu Jin's face was full of black lines.

???

Yu Jin had not known about this matter beforehand, but after listening to Li Shuang's words, he felt that he could understand every word, but he couldn't understand them together.

Shi Digan clapped his hands, seeming to understand.

"So it really wasn't easy for them, they had to pay for the rebellion themselves!"

Li Shuang encouraged everyone:
"Everyone, keep up the good work! As long as we continue to implement the three strategies for suppressing the bandits, the Six Garrisons rebels will be defeated soon!"

After all, Yu Jin still had some compassion as a scholar in his heart.

"But the Hu people in Shuozhou have just suffered the disaster of the Six Garrisons, and now they have to support the imperial court's three strategies to suppress bandits. I'm afraid it will be difficult for them to move forward!"

Li Shuang sighed.

"For the sake of the imperial court, we have no choice but to make these barbarians suffer a little longer. If all else fails, General Pingbei will bear the blame!"
