Chapter 751: The strong eat the weak
On September 14th, early morning, the west bank of Lightning, the King of Qi was in charge.
Hearing Wei Fusi's hurrying shout, King Qi suddenly woke up from his sleep, jumped up, and asked in panic, "Did the Turks attack?"
Wei Fusi hurriedly shook his hand and signaled to be calm. King Qi was uneasy. He was very nervous these days and didn't dare to sleep at night. If he couldn't hold on, he would lie down with his clothes and take a nap, for fear of accidents.
This was his first time to go out of the frontier. He followed the Holy Lord on a tour in the past. He was all in the Great Wall and never set foot in the desert. But this time it was different. This time he not only led his army out of the frontier, but also faced the Turks head-on, and fierce battles could break out at any time. This real experience of being in danger made him feel both dangerous and exciting, and he truly tasted the terrible taste of fear. The fear of failure and death, the fear of unknown future, and may not see the sun tomorrow if you close your eyes. The soldiers are struggling desperately on the line of life and death, waiting for the verdict of fate. Helplessness and despair are like the endless darkness covering the sky, swallowing hope and erasing the soul. That kind of fear that penetrates the bone marrow can only be experienced as long as you are in the scene.
The King of Qi was suffering in fear. When he saw the Turkic horse army coming over the sky, his unstoppable and destructive invincible aura made him frightened and he couldn't help but want to turn around and escape, but he couldn't help but let the soldiers around him fly high, and the loud rings that were rushing forward, like a dense spider web, bound him and pushed him forward step by step.
Since there is no choice, no way out, only going through fire and water, and only sacrificing oneself to die, you must stand up from fear, cowardice, face the rain of arrows and arrows with strong strength, bravely temper yourself on the cruel and bloody battlefield, and write with blood and life with supreme glory. Although it may be a glory in an instant, the dazzling light will surely exist forever.
The King of Qi encouraged himself to confront fear and cowardice tenaciously. However, the atmosphere on the battlefield became more and more tense, and the solemn aura in the air was suffocating. The king of Qi, who was pampered, had to say that he was welcoming the storm, even the dark clouds and lightning and thunder before the storm were about to come, were enough to destroy his courage, making him unsustainable and getting closer to the collapse.
Wei Fusi knew that King Qi could not hold on anymore. Under his arrogant and arrogant appearance, there was an untouched fragile heart. The beauty of the lion can only cover up for a moment, and the truth of cowardice will eventually be revealed. Wei Fusi could not change the character of King Qi who had been developed since childhood. The only thing he could do was to give King Qi the greatest support to the greatest extent, make him confident and make him strong.
Wei Fusi was worried that he would "scare" the King of Qi, so he said calmly, calmly but with a slight urgent tone, "The Turks crossed the river."
What does the Turks crossed the river eastward overnight? It is obvious that Li Fengyun's intention was exposed. Li Fengyun had to seize the time, to seize the Turks' awakening and do their best to block him from moving eastward to gain the opportunity. Therefore, Li Fengyun had no chance to attack the Qishuipo's tooth flag, and he would never waste his limited time on the quickness of the battle of intention. Once Ashinaduo brought the main force of the tooth flag into the lightning field and dragged the alliance army, then the alliance army would lose all the initiative. Even if he entered the flat pine forest, the price would be very high, which would have an immeasurable impact on the plan to capture Anzhou.
When the King of Qi heard this, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief and his nervousness calmed down. "In this way, the white hair has crossed the lightning field and has entered the flat pine forest. We have also achieved the purpose of restraint and can withdraw from Huaihuang."
Wei Fusi shook his head, "From time calculation, the white hair has not yet entered the flat pine forest. His army should be divided into two at this moment. Some of them surrounded the Qishuibo's tooth flag and put on an attacking position to force the Turkic army on the Lightning Plain to shrink its defense, while the other part of the army took the opportunity to advance eastward and entered the flat pine forest first."
The King of Qi was confused. My inference was correct. The white-haired army was or had entered the flat pine forest at this moment. It did not conflict with your statement. Why did you shake your head?
"Bai Hai once said that as long as he crosses the Lightning River, he can enter the flat pine forest within three days." King Qi frowned and said, "From time calculation, he should enter the flat pine forest today." The implication is that we can evacuate today.
Wei Fusi did not speak, pointed to the map hanging on the side of the tent, and reached out to invite him. King Qi strode to the front of the map. Wei Fusi followed closely behind and raised his hand to point to the Lightning River on the map. "The Lightning River originated from the Dama Mountains on the northwest foot of Yanshan Mountain. From south to north, when he arrived at the Lightning Origin, he circled a big bend, and went southeast along the northwest direction of the flat pine forest. After entering Anzhou, he was the Ru River in the Middle Earth, passing through Yanshan Mountain and entering Youzhou Beiping, and flowing into the sea."
King Qi understood. When the Lightning River arrived, it circled a "U"-shaped bend. The Lightning Origin was inside this "U"-shaped bend. The Qishuipo where the tooth flag was located was on the top of this "U"-shaped bend. If Li Fengyun's army wanted to cross this "U"-shaped bend, he had to cross the Lightning River twice in a row before entering the flat pine forest. Before, Li Fengyun crossed the Lightning River for the first time and threw down most of the food and supplies. It took him a whole day. When the second time he crossed the Lightning River, he would be willing to go to the day.
It is not enough, because after the Lightning River reaches the flat pine forest, its width increases, and the time for crossing the river will inevitably increase. In this way, if Li Fengyun's intention to enter Anzhou east is exposed in advance, and the Turks in the Yaqi followed closely and tried their best to chase him, it would inevitably delay Li Fengyun's crossing speed. It is not difficult to guess that if Ashina Duna was allowed to cross the Lightning River with his main army and traveled day and night to the battlefield, the cost of Li Fengyun entering the flat pine forest would be too high.
Wei Fusi did not say it directly, but his meaning was very straightforward. He dragged the Turks at any cost and stopped the Turks from crossing the river. However, the King of Qi could not do it because he had to launch an attack to stop the Turks from crossing the river. Once the Central Turkish army launched an attack, it would tear the face and there was no room for maneuver. Both sides would definitely fight. As a result, no matter the victory or defeat, whether the war between the North and the South broke out early, or the two sides maintained restraint in political settlement of the dispute, it would eventually be very unfavorable to the King of Qi. The King of Qi went north to the frontier, with the purpose of survival, development and growth, and the extension of his own political life, and to fight for that glimmer of hope in despair, rather than self-exile and self-destruction.
Wei Fusi firmly believed that the Turks did not dare to tear each other apart, and they did not dare to fight with the future crown prince of Qi, the Central Earth, to directly anger the huge Zhongtu. Therefore, he advocated attack, but Wei Fusi understood the psychology of the King of Qi and was worried about conflict with the King of Qi, so he did not directly express his thoughts and did not put heavy pressure on the King of Qi. Now is an extraordinary moment, the monarch and ministers must unite, and the premise of unity is that the monarch and ministers must find their own position. If the monarch and ministers are weak and strong, and the monarch and ministers are directly under the monarch and ministers, they are just a puppet, and that's all. After the conflict between the monarch and the ministers is sharp, it will be a matter of defeat.
The Qi King's Committee will not be decided.
"White hair said that we would enter the flat pine forest within three days, provided that Asuna Duna and his main army were both restrained by the king on the west bank of the Lightning River." Wei Fusi said, "Since the king has come to this point, he should move forward bravely and persevere to the end. Even if he wants to retreat, it should be after tomorrow morning."
Wei Fusi couldn't wait. King Qi's indecisiveness made him anxious. He had no choice but to "strongly" put forward his bottom line. You can withdraw, at least keep your promises and help the white hair restrain the Turks for three days. You must withdraw after the early morning tomorrow.
The King of Qi was hesitant and had a gloomy face, with his hands behind his back, paced back and forth in the tent, wandering around.
Li Shanheng came, Li Baiyao came, and even the Wu Benlang general Zhao Shizhu, who followed the King of Qi to the fortress, and Han Maha, the general of Huaihuang Town, came to ask for the decision of the King of Qi.
Li Shanheng was also anxious. Although he did not dare to make a direct suggestion and launched an attack immediately, he could analyze the situation thoroughly and let the King of Qi know that for the sake of great future gains, he must now be brave enough to take risks.
"The intention of the white-haired is definitely exposed. The Turks on the Yaqi side must be chased and killed, and the speed of the white-haired advancement was delayed to death. There are only a handful of horse troops under the White-haired tent. With that little horse army cannot resist the attack of the Turks, and ultimately they have to rely on the intensive battle formation of the infantry. In this way, the white-haired steps are difficult and the speed of the eastward advancement is very slow. In this unfavorable situation, if Ashina Duna leads the main army to follow up and chase, the loss of the white-haired can be imagined."
The loss of gray hair was heavy, and survival was a problem, let alone conquering Anzhou. The King of Qi was very entangled and looked at Zhao Shizhu and Po Liu Han Maha. These two generals have been guarding the border for many years and have fought with the northern barbarians outside the border for many years. They should have a more accurate judgment on the current situation.
Zhao Shizhu and Po Liu Han Maha looked at each other and smiled bitterly. This is the disadvantage of a typical layman commanding an expert. The King of Qi did not understand the desert at all, did not understand the northern enemy, and did not know the key points of the war outside the frontier. Even in terms of politics, the King of Qi seemed to be immature enough. You have already gone out of the barrier and went deep into the desert and faced the Turks head-on. The sword has been unsheathed and has already magnified the risks infinitely. At such a critical moment, you have to retreat, retreat, and stuff the drawn sword back into the scabbard. Are you looking for death?
Zhao Shizhu had no choice. He was forcibly dragged onto the "ship" by the King of Qi. Of course, his selfishness also exists. If it weren't for the immeasurable benefits after the recovery of Anzhou, what if he "turned against" with the King of Qi? Now that he has been trying hard to survive, the King of Qi hesitated, which is outrageous!
"The strong prey of the weak." Zhao Shizhu said seriously, "In the desert, only by swallowing the weak can you continue to be strong, otherwise it will be someone else's prey." The implication is that if you don't hit the Turks, you are afraid and afraid, the Turks will hit you, beat you all over the ground to find teeth. If the strong prey of the weak, you will be finished, and you will be lost.
The King of Qi pondered silently.
Han Maha resolutely made a statement, "King, everything in the desert is spoken by fists. As long as the fists are hard enough, as long as the opponent is knocked down, knocked down, and be beaten to the point of being obedient and admit defeat, you are the omnipotent god. You can do whatever you want and can kill and take away life and death. To put it bluntly, who dares to say that it is black? If you say Ashi Duna takes action first, who dares to say that you shot the first arrow?"
Zhao Shizhu added in time, "In today's battlefield, we have an absolute advantage. Taking advantage of the Turks' hurry to cross the river, we took decisive action, gave him a fatal blow, and killed him with blood."
The King of Qi was moved. This sentence was considered a battle with absolute chances of winning. Why not fight?
"Transfer the orphan orders, attack, attack overnight, launch a thunder strike at the Turks."
