Volume 1: Who Rides the Star Chassis to Break through the Void Chapter 177: After all the mechanisms have been exhausted, there is still a lingering hatred
Yang Jinghui's whole team attacked, and a flash of smile appeared on Ye Chang's lips. "When cleaning the battlefield, we may be able to pick up some cattle and horses abandoned by the dog soldiers." Gao Shi added. The two of them smiled knowingly, and Ye Chang nodded: "This matter I'll leave it to Mr. Gao. I've been very sleepy these days, so I'll take a nap first. If it's not urgent business, don't disturb me." "There are some shortages of manpower. Ambassador Bian¡¯s subordinates, can they also borrow it for use?¡± ¡°Gao Shi will just support the envoys, what do you think?¡± Those subordinates of Bian Lingcheng didn¡¯t know that they had it, they just thought that cleaning the battlefield was a highly rewarding job, so they started fighting. For so long, they didn't dare to go up to the city, but now they were sent to search for loot. This was clearly Ye Chang's care for them. "This little Ye Langjun is a sensible person. When Mr. Bian comes back, he will have to say a few kind words for him." Everyone had their own secrets, and then they went out of the city to search to see what loot they could find. Quanrong's camp was naturally the focus of cleaning up, but Quanrong was from a nomadic tribe. He came and went like the wind, and everything was packed away. Apart from the flags and felt tents, he gained very little. So everyone began to search around to see if they could find Quanrong's abandoned horses. Ye Chang was sitting at the top of the city. When he saw the sun gradually reaching the sky, he felt that it was almost done. Sure enough, not long after, a group of people returned in a hurry. Before entering the city, someone shouted from outside the city: "It's not good, it's not good, Ambassador Bian Ambassador Bian" Ye Chang frowned at the top of the city: "What's wrong?" "Something happened to Ambassador Bian?" the man howled outside the city. That was one of Bian Lingcheng's subordinates. Ye Chang sent them out in order to find the bodies of Bian Lingcheng and others. Hearing this, Ye Chang's face changed drastically and he hurriedly went down to the city: "What happened? Did he fall into the hands of the dog soldiers?" "No, it was dead, all dead." The man cried and said, completely unlucky. Suspicious of Ye Chang, Ye Chang took a breath and then calmed down: "Where is it? You saw it right?" "It's in the back city, less than one mile away from the city. I definitely saw it right" "Lead the way" Ye Chang said something, then turned around and frowned at a soldier and said: "Go and call General Yang back, just say just say that you have found Ambassador Bian and tell him the situation here alone." The soldier's face was also pale. It was a great achievement to repel the dog soldiers and save the city, but without the general, the credit would be reduced by more than half, and he might be blamed for it. So he nodded hastily, mounted his horse and galloped away. Following the team that discovered the body, Ye Chang arrived at the scene and saw that the scene was in a mess. Ye Chang glanced around and then sighed: "Ambassador Bian waited here and was suddenly ambushed, so he didn't even have the strength to fight back. This must be the work of Quan Rong Jing Kuang. Yes, after the Quan Rong withdrew their troops last night, they must not have given up and laid down their elite troops here. If we had gone out of the city for a night attack last night and found out that it was an empty camp and pursued it, they would have surely He will take the opportunity to seize the city from the back city and kill everyone with a carbine." After hearing this analysis, everyone who was shocked nodded their heads. Ye Chang dismounted again, rummaged through Bian Lingcheng's body, and then pulled out the blood-stained secret letter. Seeing the paint on it, he did not open it, and then said angrily: "Ambassador Bian, if not How could you go out of the city to ask for help? This letter is a secret message from Ambassador Bian. I dare not read it. You are all close confidants of Ambassador Bian. Who is willing to go through the trouble of sending this secret message back to Chang'an? " "I, I," ¡± Several people were vying to do this. This is inevitable. With Bian Lingcheng's identity, he died in the war. Among the followers who came with him, there were some who were flexible and naturally wanted to return to Chang'an as soon as possible. Even if there was no chance of promotion and wealth, they could always He won't lose his life either. Ye Chang said seriously: "This matter is of great importance. I'm afraid it won't work if you go alone. You might as well go back together, and I will leave this secret memorial to you." He packed the secret memorial in a brocade bag and handed it to a bystander. Ling Cheng's confidant glanced at Ye Ting next to him again: "Ye Ting, take someone to escort them back to Chang'an, and by the way, bring a safe letter back to our Wolong Valley." Ye Ting understood, and took the order to lead more than ten riders away. Ye Chang turned around and looked at the people who were left behind, with a look of sadness on his face: "Ambassador Bian asked for help but was unable to get help. Unfortunately, he died. We must bury his body alive Please help him." Of course, over there, Yang Jinghui followed the traces left by Quan Rong. In the past few days of fierce fighting, more than a thousand corpses of Quanrong were left, but the main force was still there. The traces left by the more than 10,000 men and horses were huge, so they were easily discovered. However, they ran very fast. Yang Jinghui chased them from morning to noon, and they had already arrived at the gate of Hongji City. He only captured dozens of injured or sick horses. When he arrived at Hongji City, he was initially hesitant to continue the pursuit. Driven by utilitarianism, he finally decided not to rest in Hongji City, but to pursue directly. After chasing for another hour, his power was exhausted, and he was about to turn back. However, at this moment, he found smoke and dust rising behind him, and a large group of people rushed towards him like a whirlwind.Jinghui groaned secretly, turned his horse's head and wanted to escape, but after escaping for more than a hundred steps, when he looked back, he realized that the flag stretched out from the smoke was that of the Tang Dynasty. He immediately rejoiced: "It's Doctor Huangfu." It was Huangfu Weiming who came back. Huangfu Weiming looked proud and looked at him with a look of contentment. Hearing that Yang Jinghui was asking for an audience, he smiled and said to his left and right, "This Yang Jinghui is quite brave, he actually dared to chase the Quan Rong to this point. But now the main force of the Quan Rong has been destroyed by me, and the remaining troops fled into the deep ditches of the snowy mountains. He can only be happy for nothing." The deputy general Zhuge Xiang next to him stroked his beard and laughed: "Without Dr. Huangfu's planning, there would be no such success - but Bian Lingcheng should have known about it at this time, and he shouted. "What should I do?" "This is the policy proposed by Ye Chang and Gao Shi. I just changed it slightly. If he resents it, he will resent Ye Chang." Huangfu Weiming said indifferently: "At most, I will share some of the credit with him. That¡¯s right.¡± He didn¡¯t think so, but Wang Rao next to him frowned. " However, Wang Jin is also a veteran general. He has been up and down in the officialdom for a long time, so naturally he will not reveal his dissatisfaction. "Let Yang Jinghui come to see me. I also want to know what's going on over there in Huacheng City. That eunuch dared to come to supervise the army. Is he so scared that he peed his pants? And that boastful Ye Chang actually talked nonsense about the imperial court's side policies. , I think I am familiar with the surrounding affairs, but now I have actually experienced a life-and-death battle, are I still stubborn?" Huangfu Weiming was very interested and ordered. Yang Jinghui was quickly brought to Huangfu Weiming. He bowed down and said, "Congratulations to Doctor Huangfu for returning victoriously. The doctor's strategy is unparalleled. His humble position is truly a sign of admiration." Huangfu Weiming has heard this kind of flattery a lot these days. But when Yang Jinghui, who had never been convinced by him, said it, he still felt a little happy. He asked Yang Jinghui to get on his horse and move forward with him, and then Huangfu Weiming said casually: "In the morning, we fought with Quanrong's retreating army and defeated it. I heard from the prisoners that you fought well in Huacheng City, and you still have a good fight." Use the crossbow to kill the deputy commander of Quan Rong. Is this your plan? " Yang Jinghui's face turned red. If that was his plan, why would he need to pursue Quan Rong now? He said respectfully: "This is the plan. Ye Shenjun's strategy was to lure the nobles to gather on the rocks, prepare the crossbows, and hit the target with one strike. "Oh? It turned out to be Ye Chang's strategy. It seems that he was boasting, and there was a lot of boasting. "Share the luck." Yang Jinghui thought that Ye Chang had hardly rested on the city in the past few days. He fought bloody battles with the soldiers, and even reached the front line twice, killing several dog soldiers who boarded the city. He couldn't help but said: "Ye Canjun has never boasted. In the past few days, he has taken the lead and used the weak to make the enemy stronger. All the officers and soldiers are very respectful." "Does he still have such abilities?" This surprised Huangfu Weiming. Huangfu Weiming knew Yang Jinghui. He was meticulous and a little arrogant, but he was very steady in commanding the battle. It was precisely for this reason that he arranged Yang Jinghui to Huacheng City, because he felt that with Yang Jinghui's ability, if he could defend Huacheng City, the casualties would be higher at most. "What about the casualties in the city? The confessions of the prisoners of Quanrong were unclear. Are the casualties in Huacheng City serious?" "There were more than 300 casualties among the soldiersof which more than 140 were killed in battle." I can't survive this winter" Wang Ruolan sighed from the side. There were a total of 1,500 troops, more than 300 casualties, and more than one-fifth of the losses, which was indeed quite heavy. Huangfu Weiming nodded and was about to speak when he heard Yang Jinghui say: "Ye Canjun had already made arrangements before the war. Except for those who were killed in battle and those who were seriously injured and could not be treated, the rest of the situation was fine. Ye Canjun said that if there is no major epidemic, They will be able to recover in two to three months. "Huh?" Huangfu Weiming was stunned: "Is this true?" "Those who have a fever." At this time in the war, fewer people actually died on the battlefield, and more died from wound infections after the war. Since Ye Chang was in charge of the war in Huacheng City, how could he tolerate such a situation happening on a large scale? Therefore, the wounded camp was the focus of his arrangements before the war. Not only was the camp well-equipped with medicine, but there were also some military doctors who he temporarily taught. , specializing in wound cleaning and disinfection, and even simple surgical operations such as suturing. In addition, the food and hygiene conditions of the wounded barracks were also clearly stipulated by Ye Chang in detailed regulations. Each item was clear and easy to operate. This is also an important reason why Ye Chang was able to win the hearts of the soldiers in a short period of time. Many people thought they would die, but now they not only do not die, but also do not suffer too much. How can anyone not be grateful to Ye Chang? Hear what Yang Jinghui did to Ye Chang After explaining the situation of arranging the wounded camp one by one, Huangfu Weiming patted his head and said: "Oh, this is not my fault. Although Ye Chang's military affairs are arm's length, there is indeed something unique in handling the wounded camp - - It is said that he once received advice from Master Wang Sun of Medicine in a dream, which must be why he has this ability. I should have thought of this earlier, and it would be true to use him here.At the right place, Wang Nanpo came to the side and said: "It's not too late now, our casualties are not small this time" With just one sentence, Huangfu Weiming glared at him, and Wang Nanqi suddenly realized that he had made a mistake. Yang Jinghui took a look, could it be that Huangfu Weiming's expedition was not going well? After returning to Hongji City, Huangfu Weiming ordered Yang Jinghui to return to Huacheng City to replace Ye Chang. Of course, he also invited Bian Lingcheng to return to Hongji City. However, it was already late at this time. It was not until the next day that Ye Chang set off from Huacheng City and arrived at Hongji City in the afternoon. Seeing that only Ye Chang had returned, Huangfu Weiming looked a little unhappy: "Where is Ambassador Bian, is he still in Huacheng City?" Ye Chang lowered his head and did not speak. A follower of Lingcheng next to him couldn't help but shouted angrily: "Huangfu Wei Ming, you still have the nerve to mention Ambassador Bian: "Who are you? How can you be allowed to make noise in the army? "Huangfu Weiming suddenly changed his color. He had not done all his work. He was happy on the surface, but in fact he was still a little angry in his heart. At this time, he took the opportunity to attack: "Drag me down and hit me with the military stick." "You have the ability to kill me anyway. You have already harmed Ambassador Bian. You will not let someone like me go. But unless you kill us all to silence us, someone will always come to the court to file a complaint against you." The man was adamant and shouted. There was a big fuss, and a smile appeared on Ye Chang's downcast face, but it only flashed past. Among Bian Lingcheng's remaining subordinates, this one was the only one with a bad temper and a habit of being arrogant, and Ye Chang had this bad breath. The guy came here and endured his complaints along the way, not just for this moment. Sure enough, Huangfu Weiming was still furious at first, but when he heard him say "I hurt Ambassador Bian", his expression became a little surprised: "I hurt Ambassador Bian? Where do you start talking about thisYe Chang, are you mute? Why don't you report the situation to me?" "You don't need Ye Canjun to tell you, I will tell you that Ambassador Bian died in the battle, and it was you who killed him " Zhuge Xiang gestured to the left and right, and a sergeant suddenly came, grabbed the guy, covered his mouth and dragged him out. Ye Chang knew that he could no longer be silent, so he came out and knelt on one knee: "It's a humiliation and incompetence, it's really a restriction. Ambassador Bian could not be found. Ambassador Bian went out of the city to ask for help from the emperor's officials. Unfortunately, he was robbed by the dog soldiers, so he died in the battle. " Huangfu Weiming was suddenly struck by thunder when he heard it. His face turned pale and he murmured: "How is this possible? " He has planned everything. With Ye Chang and Yang Jinghui, with the dangers of Huacheng City and so many troops, it is not a problem to defend for three to five days. Bian Lingcheng, an eunuch, is as timid as a mouse. As long as he If you stay in the city and can't get out, your life will be safe. But now, although Huacheng City is defended, Bian Lingcheng is dead. He is Longyou Jiedu and the chief general of this army, and Bian Lingcheng was sent by the emperor to assist. His supervisor - letting Bian Lingcheng die here, the guilt involved is not small. "Ye Canjun, please tell me in detail what happened." Zhuge Xiang also said in surprise, "The dog soldiers attacked the city very hard the day before yesterday. In a hurry, they climbed to the top of the city four times in one day, and suffered heavy casualties. The Duke thought that the Quan Rong would attack again and the city would be difficult to defend, so he decided to leave the city at night to ask for help from Dr. Huangfu. "Ye Chang said while presenting a letter, which was exactly the letter left by Bian Lingcheng: "Gong Bian did not tell us about it, and we didn't know anything about their departure. At this time, Quanrong retreated. We asked the border commander for a decision whether to pursue or not, only to discover that General Yang did not report this to Dr. Huangfu? " Yang Jinghui was sent back to Huacheng City by Huangfu Weiming. He had no time to report the matter. Huangfu Weiming took the letter and looked at it twice. He felt as if he had eaten a handful of flies, feeling disgusted and uncomfortable.
