Shiqing does not regret

The situation in Pingzhou is unpredictable.

Khitan Camp

The woman in Khitan uniform got off her horse vigorously, entered the tent in a hurry, knelt down not far from the man who had not yet turned around, and said clearly, "Yelu Qingwu pays homage to Khan!"

Hearing the sound, the man turned his head, hesitated beside her for a moment, and then said slowly: "Qingwu, why should you be so polite?" He helped her up, and saw that Yelu Qingwu was wearing a silver light on his left ear. The earrings on both sides were neatly braided, and they were all neatly combed together in the end. She was beautiful and beautiful, and she was indeed a beautiful woman from the Khitan nobles. She couldn't help showing a knowing smile on her face as she stared at the woman in front of her.

Yelu Qingwu felt his intense gaze, subconsciously took a step back, and opened the distance between them.

This person is none other than Yao Nian Qin De, the Khan Chen De respected by everyone in Khitan.There is also a reason for Yaonian Qinde to treat her like this. The Khitan people have always had a tradition of sisters dying. Her elder sister died of an illness at the beginning of autumn. According to the custom, she will naturally become the next generation Ke Dun.But this incident obviously made it difficult for Yelu Qingwu to accept for a while. She was used to being unrestrained and dissolute. Facing the news of her sister's death had already made her grieve endlessly. The current custom undoubtedly became a shackle on her body.

Yaonian Qinde didn't notice the uncomfortable look in Yelu Qingwu's eyes, his face was still full of joy, and he said to himself, "Do you know why I brought you to the Central Plains?"

"Qingwu doesn't know." Hearing this, Yelu Qingwu let out a thump, and his heart kept beating.Come to the Central Plains?Earlier, she had sneaked to the Central Plains once, and of course she did not tell her father and brother that she didn't dare to say anything when she returned home with her nose full of ashes.Why did Khan suddenly ask her like this? Could it be that he guessed something?Then the voice of speaking became smaller and smaller, and his confidence was also somewhat lacking.

Seeing her puzzled face and weak voice, Yao Nian Qinde couldn't help feeling overjoyed, and laughed and said, "I watched you grow up, and I know you have a wild nature, and since you were young, you liked to ride horses and hunt with your elder brother. So this time I will bring you to the Central Plains, I think you will like the marching and fighting!" After finishing speaking, he looked at Yelu Qingwu with joy, Yao Nian Qinde never thought that Qingwu, who had been a gangster since childhood, would change in a sudden To be able to grow into such a slim and beautiful girl, compared to Qingwu's virtuous and gentle sister, he felt that the wildness emanating from Qingwu seemed to be more suitable to him.Therefore, he wasn't too sad about the death of Sister Qingwu, but he was kind to the woman in front of him.

When Yelu Qingwu heard about it, she suddenly let go of the stone in her heart. Fortunately, no one else knew about it, otherwise, she would have been miserable.He suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, hearing Yao Nian Qinde's words, he couldn't help but feel happy.Since she was a child, she liked to dance with knives and guns, and liked to hunt on horseback, but she always played with the men on the grassland, and she just clicked and stopped. Now she can see the real battle, which makes her excited. You know, this time their Khitan led a hundred thousand Khitan warriors to fight against the Tang Dynasty, and vowed to seize Pingzhou. She didn't have a good impression of the people of the Central Plains, so it is very satisfying to be able to get rid of the shame.Although the recent marriage with Yaoyan Qinde made her feel a little unhappy, but the current battle made her feel very happy, so she also forgot all the unpleasantness in her heart. How can she say that her "brother-in-law" is still right She takes good care of her.My mood also improved.

"Really?" Yelu Qingwu couldn't help opening his eyes wide, looking at Yao Nian Qinde expectantly.

Yao Nian Qinde nodded lovingly.Previously when Liu Shouguang was guarding Pingzhou, he had repeatedly humiliated him by capturing other Khitan generals. He wanted to redeem the generals with five thousand horses, but Liu Shouguang sternly refused, and he was not allowed to come near the border for ten years.And now that Liu Shouguang is finally dead, how could he be willing to stick to the ten-year contract that made him unable to hold his head up?Now that the Tang royal family is frequently starred and wars in the Central Plains are frequent, even now it is a good opportunity to compete in the Central Plains, how could he let it go?

……

"General, my subordinates have counted the soldiers in Pingzhou City. Here is the roster. General, please have a look." It was Yan Shu who spoke.Their army has been in Pingzhou for two days. In the past two days, he either counted the soldiers or the people in Pingzhou City, which has already made her full of complaints. If a lieutenant general does such a thing, what do other people do?This Dugucheng was clearly looking for trouble for her.

Seeing Yan Shu enter the door, Dugucheng only glanced at him, then stretched out his hand to signal her to put the roster on the case table, and discussed with other generals on his own, completely ignoring the left general in front of him.

Seeing this, Yan Shu was not annoyed, and placed the register on the case table in a more self-cultivated manner.In the past few days, she has gotten used to Dugu Cheng's rudeness, so she walked to the middle of the hall with her chest up, where everyone gathered, and saw a sheepskin drawing on the table in the middle, which seemed to be a topographic map of Pingzhou.It seems that Dugu Cheng and others are starting to discuss the military.

Pingzhou City is located in an important position, with closed terrain and surrounded by mountains, and it may not be so easy for Yao Nian Qinde to drive southward directly. A strange official pointed to the sheepskin map and talked, sounding like he was sure of victory. Several other officials around also followed suit.

Yan Shu was puzzled, and couldn't help but look at this official. She didn't know this person, so he probably didn't come from Chang'an, so he should be a local official from Pingzhou.She had heard about Liu Shouguang's manpower oppressing the Khitan clan back then, but it is different now, the Tang Dynasty is declining day by day, and the Khitan is also taking advantage of the civil strife in the Tang Dynasty to continue to develop. I am afraid it is too early to blindly draw this conclusion now. Well, this person is obviously still living in the dream that the enemy is weak and we are strong.

No, no.

Yan Shu thought for a moment, then approached the table, carefully observed the felt drawing, thoughtfully, pointed to the ink line outline, then dipped the pen in the ink, leaned over to draw a clear circle at the end of the arc , looked up at the crowd and said: "We all know that Pingzhou is located in a fortress, but it just so happens that there is a huge gap in the north due to landslides and snowfalls in recent years. It is precisely the right time for this time, if at this time, Khitan has stored up enough troops, horsepower, food and grass, I am afraid that we will not be able to take advantage of the terrain."

Thanks to Dugucheng who asked her to count the soldiers and population in the city, this gave her a lot of understanding of the local environment, customs and history, otherwise they might have been planted in this place as outsiders.

Dugucheng raised his head, changed his self-confidence and majesty just now, suddenly turned cold, squinted his eyes and asked the official who had just spoken: "Is what General Yan said true?" Although Dugucheng held a grudge against Yan Shu, he also He is definitely not someone who is blinded by hatred. Now, the emperor sent him to fight against Khitan, so naturally the battle is important.

The official who spoke just now heard Dugucheng's sudden cold questioning, couldn't help but tremble in his heart, and nodded timidly: "There is something else, but it's just a small mouth, it's nothing serious."

"Bastard!" Hearing this, Dugu Cheng suddenly got angry and scolded that person.He is not a fool, he has some combat experience anyway, as long as one part of this terrain is breached, it is tantamount to destroying the advantage of the terrain, that is to say, it is unknown who will win or lose in this battle between them and Khitan.

Dugu Cheng rubbed his tightly frowned brows angrily, and said impetuously: "Since this is the case, we can only meet the Khitan Khan in the first battle tomorrow, feel their power, and then make plans. "Father said that this battle can only be won but not defeated, so for this battle, he must be calm.

"promise!"
