Chapter 182 Battlefield
In any case, when people come, General Han will go to see him.
When General Han returned to Northwest Pass, Zhou Yi was already waiting in his big tent.
"Master Zhou, why don't you stay in the capital well, what are you doing at the border!" General Han's tone was a little aggressive.
Zhou Yi didn't care, he smiled and said, "The emperor sent me to help the general." "
Aid? You?" General Han looked Zhou Yi up and down, and said scornfully, "I advise Mr. Zhou to go back. This border is not a place for you delicate civil servants to stay."
The civil servant Zhou Yi thought for a while, and then he understood why General Han had such an attitude when he saw him, who told him that he was a civil servant just like Yong Qi Xianyi!
Zhou Yi stopped laughing, and flicked his sleeves lightly: "That's embarrassing, I am here to lead the three armies and direct the war." "What!!!" General Han was shocked and angry in an instant, "
Master Zhou, The old man is not in the mood to listen to your jokes now. Do you know what a battlefield is? Do you know how many hot-blooded men in my Dai Viet died in vain because of this military supply incident? It’s the same as your examination room. Here, if you make a wrong order, countless soldiers’ souls will be scattered on the battlefield! Just deliver the general’s supplies, and go back to Beijing quickly, you are not needed here..." Without waiting for
him After finishing speaking, Zhou Yi directly invited Emperor Chongzheng's imperial decree, and read it clearly in front of him.
General Han knelt down and listened, and immediately stood there dumbfounded, his hands hanging by his side suddenly squeezed his veins, judging from his appearance, if he could, he would wish to punch Zhou Yi back to the capital.
There was endless anger in his heart, and then it turned into sadness. What do the emperor and the cabinet think about letting a hairless civil servant command the war? Could it be that he thinks that Da Yue is not defeated fast enough, so he has to ruin Da Yue completely before he is reconciled!
Zhou Yi knew what General Han was thinking, he sighed, and helped General Han up; "General Han, I know you don't believe me, but I just ask General Han, if the current situation continues, you Do you think you can withstand the enemy? Can you make us invulnerable?"
General Han felt that Zhou Yi had insulted him, "I can't, but who is the culprit for such consequences? It's not you civil servants. Corruption has ruined the lives of many Da Yue soldiers in vain! I can’t promise to repel the enemy, so can you?”
Zhou Yi’s eyes burst out with determination after hearing General Han’s question, and he put his hands behind his back: "How will you know if you don't try!"
General Han was a little stunned for a while, because Zhou Yi's appearance just now made him believe that Zhou Yi could turn the battle from defeat to victory.
He shook his head, suspecting that he had lost his mind for a while.
No matter how unwilling General Han was, since the imperial decree had been issued, he had to abide by it as long as he had no intention of rebelling.
General Ma also rushed over overnight.
General Ma guarded the west of the Northwest Pass, mainly defending the Rong people. However, because of Zhou Yi's words, the Rong people wanted to preserve their strength when attacking, and their combat effectiveness was not as good as that of the Great Qiang. Therefore, the west side defended by General Ma is not too difficult.
When he heard that Zhou Yi was asked to command the entire army, his reaction was not as great as that of General Han. There has never been a shortage of laymen commanding experts, and civilians commanding military generals to fight. Now he only hopes that Zhou Yi can listen to their suggestions, not Indiscriminate command. Zhou Yi didn't intend to go down to rest, but immediately asked the two generals about the specific situation on the battlefield. The two generals saw that he was still willing to know, and finally felt a little better in his heart. At least this guy didn't slap his head Random orders. After understanding the battlefield situation clearly, Zhou Yi frowned tightly: "It seems that the situation is more serious than I imagined." The next day, Zhou Yi had just had breakfast, and when he sat in the big tent, he felt the ground's pressure. Gently shaking, and there is a tendency to become more and more serious.
"The enemy army is coming again, the enemy army is coming again..."
The soldiers guarding the city on the temporarily built battle fort immediately beat the drums.
Zhou Yi's eyes were fixed, and he walked quickly to the battle castle.
"Boom boom boom..." The smoke billowed in the distance, and countless enemy troops riding fierce horses covered the sky like locusts, and the whole earth trembled.
General Han had already stood beside Zhou Yi at some point: "This battle fort was built temporarily, and behind it is the Northwest Pass, and inside the pass are our people of Dayue, so even if we don't have weapons, if we smash the surrounding stones, even if we use the soldiers' weapons We can't retreat even if we are blocked by flesh and blood, because if we retreat, the whole of Da Viet will fall."
General Han has seen this situation many times since the half month of fighting, and he stood beside Zhou Yi as motionless as a mountain : "I don't know what Master Zhou can do to prevent the soldiers from going to the battle fort, but I hope Master Zhou understands that if the enemy conquers this battle fort and then the Northwest Pass, then Da Yue is really in jeopardy!" Zhou Yi Holding the binoculars in his hand, he could clearly see the enemy situation in front of him. Hearing this, he didn't even move his eyebrows, and said, "Isn't it in danger now? General Han, is your solution just to take the lives of countless soldiers?" , Excuse me, if I fight like the general, even if I have hundreds of millions of people in Da Viet, it is not enough for the general to kill me like this!" General Han said angrily: "Then why is this, and it is not because of your excessive civil servants Greed, if not, how could I do anything else!" General Han thought Zhou Yi would argue with him, but Zhou Yi just nodded: "Yes, you are right, now that the enemy is at hand, These can be debated later, the plan for now is to repel the enemy's attack." "How to repel?" Last night Zhou Yi only said not to send people out of the fort to resist today, and did not mention any other tactics. Both the general and the general Ma thought that Zhou Yi wanted to defend the battle castle to the death. But General Han thinks that this method is too naive and naive, the battle fort is not strong, and the enemy's charge may take less than a day to level the battle fort, otherwise why would he not hesitate to use the soldiers as human shields, and die Dead block?
"Here we come!" General Han was about to speak again, but Zhou Yi waved his hand and stared straight ahead.
In front of the entire battle fort, there was a flat river, and Da Qiang's army stopped about 100 meters away from the battle fort.
The Daqiang general who led the team was a little suspicious, why didn't those Da Yue people come out of the fort today?
It is not just the warring parties of Da Qiang and Da Viet who are paying attention to this war.
The Rong people were in charge of attacking the west side of the Northwest Pass, but because of Zhou Yi's words, although they pulled up the battle, they did not attack much.
But after more than ten days of fighting, seeing how vulnerable Da Yue was under the iron hooves of Da Qiang, the Rong people felt ready to move.
Dayue is so unbeatable, even if they send troops, they will not lose much. It seems easy to defeat Dayue, and they can invade the big country of the Central Plains and occupy their prosperous land without much effort. Seeing this situation, the Rong people can't bear it anymore. , Today is the last day they decide to observe. If the strength of Dai Viet is still the same, then they will start a full-scale attack.
The waiters sent by the Rong tribe watched from a distance outside the battlefield.
On the other side, Di Yi also sent people to quietly observe the situation on the battlefield. No matter what Da Yue said, the strength of the battlefield is still to be seen. If Da Yue is really so vulnerable, then the previous Da Yue envoy It is a joke to say that Da Yue can easily defeat them and Di Yi. The prosperous Da Yue is at your fingertips. In this case, why should they hesitate? Da Yue himself is like a sieve, which can be broken without being poked.
The Great Qiang general was a little hesitant. During previous battles, Dayue would resist desperately. What happened today? Why didn’t he even leave the battle fort? Is there some conspiracy?
Outside the Northwest Pass, even in April, there is still a cold wind blowing, which makes the depressed Pass more solemn.
In the middle, the countless cavalry troops of the Daqiang are confronting the Dayue people in the battle fort, and the Rong people and Diyi are watching on the two sides a little farther away.
"Shushasha..." The wind blowing the yellow sand outside the Northwest Pass seemed to blow away the tranquility before the war broke out.
Zhou Yi stood on the battle fort, staring at the big Qiang in front of him solemnly.
The Daqiang people couldn't bear it at first, and sent people to shout out.
"Why, you Da Yue people can't beat our Da Qiang, so you started to be a coward? Tell you, it's useless to hide, even if you hide in your mother's womb, we will still beat you, ah ha ha ha ha..."
"Oh oh oh oh oh..." Shouting in front of the battle is also a way to improve one's own momentum and attack the opponent's morale. As soon as the Daqiang people finished shouting, the Daqiang people behind followed them with loud shouts. The sound came with overwhelming momentum on the endless plain outside the pass.
The people of the Rong tribe looked at the situation on the battlefield from a long distance, and it was also a general of the Rong tribe who came to observe the battle. He saw the invincible momentum of the Great Qiang. Those words made them very wary of Da Qiang, seeing this situation, their faces were not at all relaxed.
"Compared to Daqiang, our Rong tribe still has a huge gap."
He looked at Dayue's battle fort again, and shook his head, "I really don't know how Dayue's combat power has dropped so fast. If it is still like this, It is only a matter of time before the Northwest Pass is conquered."
His subordinates were a little puzzled: "Chief, wouldn't it be a good thing to defeat Da Yue?"
The leader shook his head and did not speak.
Da Qiang below was still wantonly yelling and insulting.
Zhou Yi looked at the Daqiang enemy army in front of him, straightened his arms and waved them.
