The eldest son of the red mansion

Arslen Khan stared at him, reluctant to eat him, gritted his teeth and asked him, "Then you mean retreat?"

Timur saw the murderous look in Arslen Khan's eyes, how could he dare to object?I can only follow his temper and say: "Khan, I don't want to retreat, but I just feel that the warriors are really tired. Fighting again today may not be conducive to the war. It is better to let the soldiers rest for a day and come back tomorrow." It's not too late to fight."

After hearing what he said, Arslen Khan calmed down and thought for a while, and felt that what Timur said was reasonable. If he insisted on fighting, even if the tribal leaders agreed, the soldiers in their hands would probably resist. It's not going to end well for him.

So Arslen Khan got off the donkey and said to the crowd, "What Timur said is very reasonable. The warriors are really tired. Let's take a day off today and come back tomorrow to fight Jia Ke to the death."

The tribal leaders breathed a sigh of relief.They are really exhausted these days. They are all the leaders of the tribe.Now I can finally take a break.

Since Arslen Khan decided to rest for a day, he remembered that Jia Ke rushed into his stronghold one after another, as if entering a land without people.He hurriedly continued to order: "Although we are resting today, the defense of the camp must not be relaxed, and Jia Ke cannot be allowed to come and go freely."

All the tribal leaders thought it was very reasonable after hearing his order. Jia Ke couldn't use common sense to reason about it. It was always them who raided other people's camps, but Jia Ke broke into their camps several times, if he didn't take strict precautions.I was afraid that he would break into the camp again and slash and kill them, so they each ordered to guard the camp and prepare more bows and arrows to prevent Jia Ke from breaking into the camp.

Besides, Jia Ke rested on the tower for a while to regain some strength.He also mentioned Fang Tian's painting halberd, riding a fire dragon horse and leading hundreds of people out of the city to fight.

Arslen Khan and the tribal leaders were discussing the matter of defense when suddenly a soldier came in with a faceless face and reported: "Jia Ke is out for a fight, please Khan make a decision early."

When Arslen Khan heard that Jia Ke came to challenge again, he felt angry and helpless. Doesn't this Jia Ke need to rest?He looked down at the tribal leaders, wanting them to send their generals to fight.

But all the leaders are as cunning as foxes. Ever since they saw Jia Ke's bravery, they never dared to send anyone there again. They thought that these generals under him would probably have to explain to Jia Ke.Seeing Arslen Khan looking at them at this time, they all bowed their heads in silence, staring at the ground, never looking up at him.

Seeing this situation, Arslen Khan couldn't help sighing and said: "It's a pity that my general Siju is not here, otherwise there is one person here, why should I be afraid of him Jia Ke."

All the tribal leaders knew that the so-called four horses were the pet names of Arslen Khan's four powerful generals. Each of these four men had unstoppable courage. Can't get out.If these four people were here, they might really be Jia Ke's opponents.

Arslen Khan was very depressed, and ordered the gate of the village to be closed tightly, and ordered all the generals in the camp not to go out to fight, so as not to increase casualties.

When Jia Ke arrived outside the camp in Arslen Khan, he fought for the enemy all morning, but the Tatar camp was as quiet as usual, and no one came out to fight. After realizing it, he is recharging his energy and recharging his energy, and will not accept his own challenge next.If we fight again, I am afraid it will be a siege battle.

Under such circumstances, Jia Ke had no choice but to rush into the Tatar camp twice, but it was just a fluke.Once, he rushed into the camp with Arslen Khan, and once he sneaked into the camp at night.

If he was allowed to take this small force and attack the Tatar camp during the day, there would probably be no way to get close.

So Jia Ke could only take people back to Kaiping Weicheng, ordered everyone to guard the city carefully, and went back to Qianhu Mansion to have a rest. He killed yesterday from daytime to evening, from midnight to dawn, and challenged from dawn to noon. , although he has the courage of Lu Bu, he also has a small rejuvenation technique to help him recover.But he was alone after all, and he felt very tired now.

Not to mention that the Kaiping Guards and the Tatars ceased their fighting to recharge their batteries.Besides, Liu Yu took Jia Ke's letter that day and rode out of Kaipingwei on a fast horse. He rode fast all the way, not daring to take a break, and arrived at Xuanfu Town at noon the next day.

At this time, the gates of Xuanfu Town were wide open, and the people coming and going had returned to the prosperity of the past, without the slightest impact of the war.

Liu Yu entered through the city gate, but no one stopped him, making him come all the way to the gate of the Jiedu Envoy's Mansion.

From the gatekeeper to the soldiers of the Jiedu envoy's mansion, they have seen Liu Yu several times, recognized his appearance, and knew his position.Seeing him in a mess now, the horse was almost exhausted to the side.Knowing that he must have a big event, he dare not neglect.Hurry up to help him to the porter's room, and send someone to the Jiedu envoy's mansion to report the letter.

At this time, Jiedu envoy Wang Tao has completely relaxed, thinking that this year's Tatar invasion to the south is over.

At this time, I was chatting and joking with a few staff members in the mansion, talking about Wu Li going to Kaipingwei to test his merits, and was found to be fraudulent. What was Jia Ke's face at that time?

Suddenly there was a report from the soldiers outside, and Kaipingwei and Liu Yu rode a fast horse to the gate of Jiedushi's mansion, saying that there was an urgent military report.

Wang Tao smiled and said to several staff members: "Is there any urgent military situation? I am afraid that he was found out and sent someone to give gifts to intercede. Let him hang out for a while, and then we can talk about it."

However, Gao Hong, the military sacrificial wine, felt that something was wrong. Wu Li had just left for a few days, and according to the time, he had just begun to inspect the military industry.But this Liu Yu is rushing away, I am afraid that something really big happened.

So Gao Hong hurriedly said to Wang Tao: "My lord, something is wrong. If you came here to give a gift to intercede, it would be too fast. I think there is really some military information to report. Your lord should let him come in and report it. Otherwise, the military situation will be misunderstood at that time, and I am afraid that something serious will happen."

Chapter 99 The decision of Xuanfu Town

When Wang Tao heard what Gao Hong said, he also felt that it was very reasonable. Besides, Kaipingwei was the gateway to Xuanfu Town.If something happened and the consequences were unimaginable, he hurriedly ordered Liu Yu to be called to the study.

Liu Yu rested in the porter's room for a while, when he heard the order from Jiedu envoy Wang Tao to meet him in the study.

Liu Yu didn't dare to be negligent, and staggered towards the study under the leadership of the orderly. He was so embarrassed because he was exhausted from working on the horse all day and night without taking a rest, and every step he took was a spiritual support.The second reason is that the middle of the legs has been ground and dripping with blood.Now every step is painful.

Seeing his situation, the soldier passing the order next to him couldn't bear to wait and hurried up to support him, then carried him on his back, like Wang Tao's study, and trotted away all the way.

The messenger carried Liu Yu into the study, and Wang Tao's had been waiting for a long time.At this time, a person was suddenly entered by the messenger, and everyone was shocked.Those who were watching the orderly carrying them were already snoring like thunder during this short journey.

When Wang Tao saw this situation, he no longer suspected that it was an emergency military situation.Gao Hong was also anxious at this time, and asked the messenger to put Liu Yu on the ground, and he went up and slapped Liu Yu's face himself.Liu Yu woke up after only a few strokes. First, she raised her head to look around, and then sat up suddenly.

Regardless of etiquette, he said to Jiedu envoy Wang Tao: "Master Jiedu envoy, the big thing is not good. The Tatar Khan led [-] to [-] cavalry to attack Kaipingwei. Now Kaipingwei is in danger. Please send reinforcements early. To avoid Kaiping Wei Yi's life is ruined." After speaking, he took out Jia Ke's letter from his bosom, and put it in front of Wang Tao with both hands.

Wang Tao took the letter, tore it open, and took out the letter inside to read.

What is said in the letter is similar to what Liu Yu talked about.The final inscription not only has the seal of Kaiping Wei Qianhu, but also Wu Li's signature.

After Wang Tao finished reading the letter, he handed the letter to Gao Hong. After Gao Hong finished reading it, he passed it to the next staff member.

While they were reading the letter, Wang Tao said to Liu Yu: "Sending troops is a very important matter. I want to discuss it with everyone. You go down and rest first." After speaking, he ordered Liu Yu to be sent to the guest room so that he could have a good rest.

After everyone had read the letter, Wang Tao asked them, "What do you think now?"

When everyone heard Wang Tao's question, they couldn't think of any good ideas for a while.After all, this time it was the Tatar Khan who personally led [-] to [-] cavalry to attack.And this matter is no small matter, if one is not careful, it will lead to a big mistake.

At this time, Gao Hong winked at Wang Tao, and then suggested: "My lord, this matter is extraordinary, and we should not make a hasty decision. It is better to discuss it with officials of all sizes in Zhaoxuanfu Town."

Wang Tao immediately understood that what happened this time was different from the previous small-group invasions. If he didn't discuss with the officials, whether it was fighting or defending, it would be fine if he repelled the Tatars.If the battle is unfavorable, I am afraid that the final responsibility will be borne by him alone.If this is the case, it is better to convene all officials to make a decision together, and finally everyone will take responsibility together.

As soon as Wang Tao figured it out, he immediately ordered the messengers to summon all the officials of Xuanfu Town to meet in the lobby of the Jiedu Envoy's Mansion.

Soon, so the officials all arrived.Wang Tao came out from the back and sat in the middle of the lobby.

Sitting on it, Wang Tao looked down and saw that the civil and military officials had arrived.Then he said majesticly: "Just now Kaipingwei sent an emergency military situation. The Tatar Khan led [-] cavalry and has arrived outside Kaipingwei. Kaipingwei asked for reinforcements. What do you think? Speak up and we can discuss it."

When Jiedushi's officers heard this situation, they all had different opinions. Some said to send troops to support, while others believed that all troops should be used to defend Xuanfu Town.Otherwise, once Xuanfu Town is lost, the capital will open wide.

At this time, Xu Hu, the magistrate of Xuanfu Town, stepped forward to salute Wang Tao, and then said: "My lord, I think that we should concentrate our forces to defend Xuanfu Town. Otherwise, Xuanfu Town will be conquered by the enemy, and the capital will be in danger. At that time, Your Majesty Blame it. We all can't afford it!"

Wang Tao took a closer look at Xu Hu. He knew that Xu Hu had a grudge against Jia Ke. As soon as Jia Ke arrived in Kaipingwei, he killed Xu Hu's brother-in-law. He is a source of wealth.At that time Xu Hu had nothing to do with Jia Ke, but now he came up with an idea to sit back and watch Jia Ke be surrounded without saving him. I am afraid that he would have revenge on Jia Ke more than worrying about the safety of the capital.

But this idea is exactly in line with Wang Tao's mind, although Wang Tao is a warrior on the battlefield.But these years, he has been pampered, and he is no longer as brave as before. Besides, he is also very afraid of the Tatar cavalry.Thinking that relying on these soldiers under his own hands to fight the Tatar cavalry in a field battle, he must be defeated, so it is better to stick to Xuanfu Town.Wait and see what happens, and plan later.As for Kaipingwei, he could only resign himself to fate.

So Wang Tao said: "What Xu Zhifu said is very reasonable. What do you have to say? If you have nothing to say, let's do it this way. All the ministries have concentrated all the troops in Xuanfu Town and defended it with all their strength to prevent the enemy from sneaking in. .”

Just when Wang Tao thought that the matter had been settled, there were twists and turns.Seeing a member of the future coming out from below, he said to Wang Tao: "Jiedushi's words are not enough. If we only defend Xuanfu Town, once Kaipingwei is captured, countless people in the north of Xuanfu Town will still be attacked by Tatars." The ravages of human beings. Repaying the Lord, the early rescuers and the Kaiping Guards should cooperate with each other to defeat the Tatars."

Wang Tao was very annoyed when he heard this. He lowered his head and saw that it was He Tong, the commander. This He Tong was upright and didn't like flattery.Going against my will several times, and often contradicting him.I have long disliked him, but he has performed military exploits, is extraordinary in martial arts, and has a lot of prestige in the army, and I still need him, so I tolerate him temporarily, but I didn't expect him to speak against my wishes now.

So Wang Tao said angrily: "I will decide this kind of important matter. How can you speak? You still don't back down."

He Tong didn't know if it was intentional, or he really couldn't see Wang Tao's face, and continued: "My lord, just now we were allowed to speak freely, why do we have to act arbitrarily now? Then what's the use of calling us here?"

After hearing his words, Wang Tao couldn't bear it any longer, and said angrily, "You little commander, how dare you disobey the military order, come here. Drag me out of the hall, beat thirty army sticks, and fight against me." Be an example to others."

As soon as Wang Tao finished speaking, several soldiers rushed in, wiped He Tong's shoulders, head and arms, tied him tightly, and dragged him out.They beat him with thirty army sticks just outside the lobby.That He Tong was also a man who gritted his teeth and remained silent.

Not long after finishing the fight, he dragged He Tong back to the lobby. Wang Tao asked in the lobby, "How is it? Are you convinced?"

He Tong replied: "It doesn't matter if your lord hit me today, the poor hundreds of thousands of people will die at the hands of the Tatars."
