Wan Renyu wondered: "Isn't the Khitan a lackey who obeys Mo Huo's words?"
Hua Xiumei said lightly: "Young Master Wan may not be very clear about the situation outside the Great Wall. This starts with the Khitan. After the Khitan leader Ku Ge returned to the Tang Dynasty and was granted the title of Governor of Songmo, his successor Abu Gulianxi rebelled against the Tang Dynasty and was expelled from the Tang Dynasty.
Captured alive, Sun Wanrong became the leader of the five Khitan tribes, praised his brother-in-law for his loyalty and served as the governor of Songmo, and he and Li Tang have always lived in peace."
Her voice is comfortable and pure, elegant and comfortable, and she speaks slowly. Whether she is talking about important national affairs or daily gossip, it can always make people forget all their distracting thoughts and listen attentively. It will never be dull, and it will give rise to a touching feeling that is as gentle as her voice.
.
Her voice seemed to be roaming in the space of the terrace, and she said softly: "The Empress of China is in dictatorship. Internally, she eliminates dissidents and kills the kings of the Tang Dynasty; externally, she kills important border defense generals and leaves the defense in the hands of people without talent or virtue.
, and Zhao Wenhui, the governor of Yingzhou who was responsible for the administration of the Khitan, was stubborn and regarded the Khitan people as slaves and maids. Sun Wanrong had entered the Tang Dynasty as a servant as a hostage in his early years. He was well aware of the reality of the Tang Dynasty, so he seized the opportunity and joined forces with his sister-in-law Song Mo.
The governor Ji Zhong raised troops to rebel against the Tang Dynasty, captured Yingzhou, captured hundreds of people, and beheaded Zhao Wenhui. The Khitan broke away from China. Ji Zhong called himself the "Supreme Khan" and appointed Sun Wanrong as the commander. Just looking at his title, you can tell that Ji Danzhong
Not only do they look down on you, but they also don’t let the Turks look down upon you. How can such a person be willing to be the loyal dog of the Turks?”
Long Ying thought of Guo Yuanzhen, such a rare talent. Everyone like Di Renjie and Zhang Jian knew his abilities, but he was still dismissed by Wu Zhao. It was obvious. He also understood Wu Zhao's difficulties. In order to be the emperor, everything else was put aside.
Aside. Now that her throne is secure, and the issue of inheritance has given foreign enemies an opportunity to take advantage of it. If the Turks hadn't been able to bully her before it was too late, she might still have let that idiot Wu Chengsi do whatever he wanted. With Wu Zhao's
How can your character allow foreign enemies to humiliate you at will?
Wan Renyu sighed.
Hua Xiumei said: "Young Master Wan should have thought of what happened next. It was a great shame and humiliation that China has never experienced since the founding of the Tang Dynasty. After Sun Wanrong captured Yingzhou, he kept attacking cities and territories. He was completely invincible. He gained great momentum and gathered the crowd.
More than 40,000 people. They even captured Chongzhou and captured Zhou general Xu Qinji, causing a sensation inside and outside the city."
Wan Renyu was shocked and said: "How can everyone in Hua know the Khitan people so well, as if they have witnessed them?"
Hua Xiumei sighed quietly and said with an unbearable wry smile: "Qiuci is most famous for its beauties and singing and dancing. With powerful enemies around, we can only send beauties to make peace and seek peace. But there is an unexpected gain. It allows us to go deep behind enemy lines.
, grasp the enemy's situation, and then send it back through different channels. This is information stained with blood and tears. Xiumei hopes to use it to exchange for peace in our country. Can you do this for Xiumei?"
Feng Guoting finally spoke and said: "Master Ying is particularly silent tonight. The questions asked by Hua Hua are too big. I am afraid that you are the only one in the world who can answer them."
Wan Renyu also said: "What are you thinking about?"
Long Ying said calmly: "I'd like to report to Hua and his two brothers. The younger brother is thinking about playing chess, observing the moves, and capturing the moves of multiple opponents. Now I'm waiting for the beauty to tell me about the 'Battle of Canyon Rock Valley'
Details. I also want to know why Xi Ren is so worried about Sun Wanrong now. As for the safety of Qiuci, it can be taken care of by us."
Hua Xiumei said happily: "Xiumei, wait and see."
Wan Renyu couldn't help but ask: "Why does Xiumei trust us so much?"
Hua Xiumei said: "First of all, you are the three people that Dajiang Alliance is most worried about. Secondly, within a few days after you returned to the Divine Capital, you completely eliminated the forces that Dajiang Alliance had deployed in the Divine Capital for many years. And the most important thing is that you
He is able to manipulate the shrewd and powerful Ning Yan in the palm of his hand. He is wise and courageous. Such a talent is difficult to find at home and abroad, and he has the favor of the empress. Tell me, will you go to Northern Xinjiang in the short term?"
Long Ying said: "We will set off the day after tomorrow, and we will go deep into the enemy's territory and act secretly. In as soon as half a year, good news will come back."
Feng Guoting said: "Does Xiumei know about Dajiang Lian?"
Wan Renyu asked: "Where is their main altar?"
Hua Xiumei said: "I belong to the eleventh altar in Dajiang Alliance, but because I have been traveling abroad for many years, I don't know much about their affairs. There are three caves in Dajiang Alliance. There are many general altars in Dajiang Alliance. I have only been to the secret nest in Hainan. I am not familiar with them.
Nothing is known about the other nests. After all, Xiumei is still an outsider in their eyes."
Long Ying said: "Isn't that Nizi named Wanqi also an outsider? Why does she seem to have unreserved trust from them?"
Hua Xiumei was stunned and said: "I have never heard of a woman named Wanqi."
Long Ying remembered that he had to go back to the palace to see Princess Taiping and Shangguan Wan'er, and said: "I have to take a step in advance. Brother Wan and Mr. Feng, please continue to talk with Xiumei in detail, and then tell the younger brother exactly what they heard."
Wan Renyu protested: "Is there anything more important than what Xiumei said? You stay here for Wan."
Feng Guoting also said displeasedly: "Be careful that Xiumei ignores you from now on."
Hua Xiu gave him a white look and said, "Everyone says you are lustful, but now it seems that you are not worthy of the name."
From these two sentences, we can see how conceited the beauty of Qiuci is about her beauty, but no one finds it offensive because she is indeed a natural beauty. And her pride and her consistent aloofness are exactly what make her unique and attractive.
.
Long Ying surrendered: "Okay! Okay!"
Hua Xiumei said: "Xiumei wants to send someone to follow you north. He will be a good helper. He can also collect information and provide it to you."
Wan Renyu asked in surprise: "Who is he?"
Hua Xiumei said: "He is the leading master in our country. He followed Xiumei to the Central Plains to protect me secretly."
Long Ying sighed: "He must be a beautiful lover, otherwise how could he be so devoted?"
Hua Xiumei smiled and said: "Master Ying is jealous? I didn't expect that Master Ying would make mistakes sometimes. His name is Huangyuan Wu, he is his biological brother, and he loves my sister the most. Xiumei doesn't want him to succumb to the middle-earth and can follow you to conquer the east and the west."
Asking is the true nature of a man."
Then he said calmly: "Now it's Xiumei's turn to ask the three of you, why do you trust Xiumei so unreservedly?"
Long Ying leaned close to her ear and said softly: "Because I sneaked into Bafang Building last night to listen to Ningyan and her men talking. They mentioned you, beauty, and said you were not very obedient."
Hua Xiumei's beautiful eyes widened in disbelief.
Wan Renyu said: "Don't worry Xiumei, Master Ying's brother Hengkong Makino said that Master Ying will be the person the enemy fears the most on the battlefield."
Long Ying was surprised: "Who told you?"
Feng Guoting said: "I am told by the Holy Spirit personally, because I am afraid that I will not obey your command."
Hua Xiumei's eyes lit up and she said, "Will the Tubo people cooperate with you?"
Long Ying said: "Throughout our lives, Hengkong Muye and I have been brothers fighting side by side. Let's get back to the topic, Jin Zhong and Sun Wanrong rebelled against Zhou. How will our Holy Master react?"
Hua Xiumei said: "Master Ying has not promised me yet."
Long Ying said: "If you don't object, you agree."
Hua Xiu was filled with joy, her whole person became bright and hot, full of hope and longing for the future, and she said happily: "The empress was very angry, and sent Cao Renshi, Zhang Xuanyu, Marenjie, etc., and Wu Sansi as the Yuguandao
To appease the ambassador, he led an army of 180,000 troops to expedition to Khitan."
Feng Guoting said bitterly: "Even with more than four times the enemy's strength, they were defeated and returned, which shows how dangerous the expedition is. At this moment, we have truly grasped Brother Long's surprising strategy."
Hua Xiumei said: "Sun Wanrong first used a clever trick to make the captured Zhou soldiers think they were in famine, and then released them back to Youzhou. This made the arriving Zhou army feel underestimating the enemy and rushed in first. Sun Wanrong also deliberately scattered the weak animals.
By the roadside, Master Cao Ren couldn't wait to be wary, and rashly led his cavalry into the gorge and stone valley. He was attacked by Khitan ambushes from all sides. Zhang Xuanyu and Ma Renjie were captured alive by Sun Wanrong with flying ropes. The soldiers fell into the valley and killed countless people.
The entire vanguard force was wiped out."
Wan Renyu clenched his fist and struck upward hard, feeling inexplicably sad and angry.
The rain gradually stopped, the moon appeared in the sky, and the night wind blew slowly, but the three of them turned a blind eye to the beautiful scenery in front of them, and their hearts dropped.
Hua Xiumei continued: "Sun Wanrong won a great victory in the first battle. He forced the captured Zhang Xuanyu and Marenjie to forge military ultimatums, falsely claiming that they had defeated the enemy, and sent them to the rear troops. Generals Yan bandit Shi and Zong Huaichang received the military ultimatum. Unexpectedly, there were
They deceived and marched day and night, but ended up with the same fate as the vanguard. They all drank in the canyon. Since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, they have never been defeated so miserably."
Long Ying frowned and said: "Something is wrong. How can we just grab someone and send him a forged military ultimatum, so that Yan Bandit Shi and others can believe it?"
Wan Renyu said: "It must be a traitor."
Hua Xiumei said in surprise: "Master Ying has thought carefully, and Xiumei has never doubted it."
Feng Guoting said: "The impact of this battle is far-reaching, and the prestige of our Great Zhou Dynasty has been completely destroyed. No wonder all the countries outside the Great Wall are ready to take action."
Hua Xiumei said: "China has always had a large number of people, a rich country and a strong military. The only mistake was to kill famous generals in Wu Zhao. Fortunately, there are three of them now."
Long Ying said: "Sun Wanrong is so powerful, why can't he expand his results?"
Hua Xiumei said: "The news of the defeat in Xiashigu reached the capital of the gods. The empress appointed Wu Youyi as the commander-in-chief and Chen Zi'ang as the deputy. They guarded the border with heavy troops and temporarily suppressed Jinzhong and Sun Wanrong's southern invasion."
Wan Renyu said: "The Khitan people finally felt that their military strength was insufficient, so they could only use deceit and tactics to wait for work. They also had to rely on the Turks, hoping to jointly send troops to carve up our land. Unexpectedly, after a night chat with Xiu Mei, we got
The benefits are so great that it’s hard to estimate.”
Long Ying asked: "What is the relationship between Xi Ren and Khitan?"
Hua Xiumei said: "After Sun Wanrong's victory, he built a new city four hundred miles northwest of Yingzhou according to the terrain, and placed women, old and weak people and a large amount of supplies in the city. This incident aroused the suspicion of the Xi people, fearing that it was a precursor to attacking Xi State.
The two sides were very unhappy."
The three of them nodded to express their understanding.
The tribes outside the Great Wall are not good at building cities, and they do not like to build cities. Even if they build cities, they are still far less than the size of an ordinary city in the Middle Earth. The advantage is that they can use offense as defense, or they can move the entire clan at any time to avoid disaster. The disadvantage is that a certain number of people must be left behind.
warriors to protect the tribal homes that had no city to defend.
Now that Sun Wanrong has built a city, it is clear that he only needs to leave a small group of soldiers behind, and then the whole army can go out to invade without any worries. It is understandable that the Xi people are afraid of this.
