    Chapter 1,135 You should believe me. There are still a few scattered crop straws that have not fallen down in the field. Those may be the last few grains of grain planted into the ground a few months ago.  The last struggle of the unyielding refugees, but in this place in the northwest, the words "man can conquer nature" will always seem so pale and feeble.  There is no water, the land is dry and hard, and the climate is freezing.  These grain seeds took root and sprouted tenaciously, and grew up tenaciously, but in the end they did not produce a single grain of grain.  It is unimaginable that the people who planted these seeds left with a sense of despair. After losing the support from all over the Central Plains, the northwest land finally ruthlessly showed the desolation in their bones.  During the prosperous period of the Sui Dynasty, the imperial court had to allocate grain from other provinces to the northwest to feed the people every year.  Because only that place where people live can be considered the real territory of the Sui Dynasty.  The significance of the existence of this place was that the battlefield had been set since the founding of the Sui Dynasty more than 200 years ago.  From the first emperor of the Sui Dynasty to the last emperor of the Sui Dynasty, it is very clear.  The area in the northwest is not suitable for living at all. The reason why it has always been supported by subsidies is because it is the most suitable place for a battlefield.  With such a powerful neighbor as Meng Yuan, no one can guarantee that war will not break out.  Every Sui emperor also knew that the Sui people must have been passive in the early stages of the war.  The land in the northwest is a buffer zone to protect the prosperity of the Central Plains.  Therefore, the teams still in the northwest, whether they belong to the enemy or our own people, are having a very hard time.  In such a place where you may not find a grain of food even after walking for hundreds of miles, and there are no logistical supplies, you can only imagine what kind of life the soldiers lived.  A soldier sat on the ground, took off his boots with difficulty, and poured out the gravel inside.  There were a lot of blood blisters on the soles of his feet, but maybe it was because of the numbness from the pain. There was no sign of pain in the corners of his tightly pursed mouth, but only physiological needs and hunger.  We haven¡¯t found a water source for a whole day and a half. We can hold on for a while if we are hungry, but no water is an overwhelming thing for everyone.  He looked at the soles of his boots and felt sorry for the new boots he had just received when he went into the army.  Of course, after a few months, they had walked who knows how far, and their boots had already changed beyond recognition.  So far, there are only a few soldiers who still wear boots instead of straw sandals made by themselves.  "Let's go quickly, the general said, we have to reach Yashan before dark today." Another soldier passing by gave him a hand, and the two of them quickly followed the group.  "I just can't figure it out. In the past few months since we entered the northwest, we have been marching and marching and marching. We haven't fought a battle yet. Every day we walk so fast, as if we have to rush to the battlefield every day.  It's a decisive battle, but up to now, not a single enemy has been seen. Many people are saying that the general is actually avoiding the enemy." "Shhh." Another soldier lowered his voice and said, "Keep your voice down, no matter what.  He is the general named by the lord to lead the army. If he has no real ability, it is expected that the lord will not entrust him with important tasks. You should know that besides our group, General Chen Dingnan, General Chen Banshan, General Cui Zhongzhen, and General Lu Fenghou are now.  In addition, all the troops have set off to fight against the foreigners in Eastern Xinjiang. In other words, we are the only soldiers in the northwest carrying the word "Yu Guomen" on our shoulders. "Forget it."  He kept licking the roof of his mouth with his tongue, but very little fluid came out.  "I remember that my lord once said before that if a general leads an army without trusting the soldiers, he will be defeated. If the soldiers follow the general without trusting the general, he will die. Since we are following him now, let's see where he takes us. To be honest, instead of  Running forward like this every day is not as good as finding a real fight with the Meng Yuan Tatars. " "Here" Another soldier handed him a shriveled walnut, which had shrunk into such a small size before it had grown up.  The fruit of the group.  ¡°If you hold it in your mouth, you can spit more foam.¡± He said.  The soldier from before looked at the other person with a grateful look, and then stuffed the thing into his mouth.  But now, no matter what he puts into his mouth, he wants to swallow it in big gulps.  And no matter what is in the mouth, the stomach will start to twitch.  "Hurry up!" A messenger rode by everyone on horseback and shouted loudly: "The general has an order and must arrive at Yashan before dark. Anyone who delays the army's schedule will be dealt with according to the military law of disobedience. Everyone.  Cheer up, the general said. If you persist for a while, you will definitely see joy!" The soldiers speeded up, and someone quietly tightened his belt again.    At the front of the team, Song Zihui squatted on the ground against the wind and unfolded the map on the dry land.  The wind carried the sand and slapped it on his face, and a lot of it got into his mouth.  His lips were as dry and cracked as the earth.  He didn't even dare to spit out the sand in his mouth, because it would spit out a lot of saliva.  "I know you have been questioning me these days." Song Zihui's face was peeling, and he still had the look of a fair scholar.  When he spoke, his voice seemed to be squeezed out from a blocked throat. It was very soft and hoarse to the point of discomfort.  "You are all saying that the reason why I ran with you all the way was not to look for fighter planes at all, but to avoid the Mongolian and Yuan people. I know all this, and I have never explained it to you. That's because  You won't understand even if I explain it, so I can only rely on the general's full strength to suppress you and let you just run forward with me." He tapped the map heavily with his finger: "If you believe me,  Just hold on for this day. I will give you an explanation when we arrive at Yashan." His generals looked at each other and then clasped their fists: "I respect the general's order!" Yashan is a big mountain less than three hundred miles away from Langru Mountain.  , this mountain runs east-west, about forty or fifty miles wide from north to south, and three to four hundred miles from east to west.  If you look at it on a map, the location of this mountain is very interesting.  It is at the turning point where Langru Mountain's north-south direction turns to east-west direction, on the central extension line.  It is very close to Langru Mountain Canyon, so it is not far from Fangu City.  A group of ragged soldiers rushed to the woods at the southeast corner of Yashan Mountain in the afterglow of the setting sun. This team, which seemed to number tens of thousands of people, would be no different from a group of refugees if they all laid down their weapons.  The original colors of the clothes on their bodies can no longer be seen, only gray, black and earthy yellow are colors similar to the earth.  "Let all the soldiers go into the woods and take a break." Song Zihui panted, but there was no sweat on his forehead.  "Golden Helm" He pointed to a location on the map, then turned around and pointed to the corresponding place: "You take your three rushing camps, don't rest yet, rush here. If you see the flag of the Meng Yuan Tatars later,  Ignore it, just put it all over. The Tatars have been attacked by refugees a lot recently, so put all the baggage in the middle of the team. When you see the baggage camp coming up, send the signal and wait for the red fireworks to go off.  God, you lead your troops to attack the rear of the Tatars. Remember, don¡¯t raise the flag.¡± ¡°Here.¡± Although General Jin Duo didn¡¯t know the purpose of Song Zihui¡¯s military order, he still stood firm.  nodded.  "Lei Xianhou, you take your three Zhechong battalions to set up an ambush here." Song Zihui continued to order: "When you see green fireworks set off by the Chinese army, you lead your troops and shoot arrows into the Tatar team.  Don't worry about Yujian, just take out as many as you can. When you see the Tatar troops returning to the supply camp, lead them to attack the enemy's front line." Don't take Lei Xianhou's orders.  "Chu Feiyun" Song Zi regretted: "I will give you the strength of six folding camps for the main attack. When you see me waving the flag, you will lead your troops to storm the enemy's Chinese army supply camp. No matter how fierce the enemy's resistance is, you will  Just charge forward with your troops. As long as you can hold on for half an hour, reinforcements will arrive." "Don't worry, general!" Chu Feiyun clasped his fists: "I have been waiting for today's battle. I have been waiting for several months.  "To be honest, if we fight the Tatars without real swords and guns, the mood of the soldiers below will be really bad." "I know what you are all thinking." Song Zihui clasped his fists.  : "I am just a scholar, trusted by the Lord to lead the troops to fight against the Mongolian Tatars. In the past few months, I have not led you to fight the Tatars. I will tell you the reason after today. But today, this  If the battle is not fought well, if someone goes wrong, don¡¯t blame me for being unkind. If you have tried your best according to my military orders and you lose this battle, I will end it myself!¡± ¡°Go ahead¡± He  He said loudly: "After today's battle, if we are all alive and you think highly of me, we will sworn brothers!" Kuoketai Menglie's heart was very heavy.  The hesitation in the past few days finally caused him to miss the best opportunity to evacuate.  When those rumors began to spread, he paid no attention.  Only later did he realize how terrible the rumors were. He had no intention of rebelling or seizing the position of the Great Khan of the Meng Yuan Dynasty. However, when the rumor that Meng Ge was dead spread like a plague in the Mongolian Yuan military camp in the northwest, he could no longer control his own destiny.  He doesn¡¯t??Meng Ge is dead, but just because he doesn't believe it doesn't mean that everyone else doesn't believe it either.  Several Wang Ting generals who followed him this time obviously became uncomfortable after hearing the news.  All the generals of the royal court have the blood of the Kuoke Taimeng family.  In other words, if the Great Khan Meng Ge really dies, then they, the generals of the Royal Court, will all have the opportunity to compete for the throne of Khan.  So, in the end, it was so violent that I couldn¡¯t help it.  The generals under his command almost forced him to return to the royal court.  And the most terrifying thing? The thing that Meng Lie was most worried about was not avoided in the end. Finally, someone couldn't restrain himself and used force against him.  He didn't know that when the rumor reached the Jingjing Road, the rumor had already turned into that he had lured and killed other Wang Ting generals, because this was not the truth.  The truth is that several other Wang Ting generals plan to join forces to get rid of him, because he is the most powerful contender for the throne of Khan.  If everyone returns to the Royal Court together, he has a better chance of becoming the Great Khan than other generals of the Royal Court.  Therefore, those people planned to kill him first. However, what they did not expect was that Meng Lie had been guarding them.  In the end, both sides suffer.  "We are about to see Langru Mountain." Meng Lie looked to the west.  "Perhaps the Eastern Expedition was a wrong decision from the beginning. If the Great Khan is really dead, then please give me a hint from your soul." He murmured to himself: "This is the second time I have led  The people fled back to their hometowns, and they were all in such a mess. The world of the Han people was not beautiful at all, it was like a quagmire. "
