Just like the drunken voice

After the fall, the scenery is different, and the geese in Hengyang go without paying attention.The sound from all sides rang up.Qianzhangli, Changyan, sunset solitary city closed.

A glass of turbid wine is home for thousands of miles, Yan Ran is not reined in, and there is nothing to do. The ground is covered with frost, and people are sleepless.

——Fan Zhongyan in "A Fisherman's Ao Qiu Si"

"Suhebalu, Shao's reinforcements have arrived." Bayin opened the door curtain and entered the tent with a heavy expression on his face.

"So fast?" Suhebaru was sitting in front of the case and looking at the map. Hearing Bayin's report, he frowned and said, "How many reinforcements? Who led the team?"

"One hundred thousand reinforcements. The leader is Feng Wei, who was originally Zhao Peiqing's adjutant. Later, he was promoted and transferred back to Beijing," Bayin said, "The little emperor even sent the most useful people around him, called Chu Si."

After finishing speaking, he leaned into Suhebalu's ear and whispered: "It is said that there is... some unclear relationship with that emperor."

Sukhbaru nodded: "Let someone go to investigate again."

"Yes." Bayin replied, "The soldiers have already withdrawn, and reinforcements are coming over there, so we can't go head-to-head."

"Well." Suhe Baru said, "The plan is postponed, and we will discuss it after the spies come back."

"Okay." Bayin responded, and went out to explain the task.

The Tatar camp was brightly lit, and the soldiers who had just come down from the front went to rest in their tents.Even though it was a fierce battle, the atmosphere in the entire barracks was still very calm, and it seemed that the sudden increase in the number of enemies was not taken seriously.

The Tatars are nomadic people, and they are used to living a life of overwhelming presence. What's more, the place where the war is fought and the surrounding environment are not much different from those on the grassland.Before Ling Danhan unified the Tatars, small-scale conflicts broke out among the various tribes due to the issue of land enclosure. On the grassland, whoever had a hard fist and who was strong would take orders from him.Relying on his superb martial arts skills and uncompromising iron-fisted style when he was young, Ling Danhan conquered one tribal leader after another and unified Tatar.

In the eyes of the Tatars, the war launched against Dashao this time was just a relatively large-scale conquest for the purpose of fighting for territory.Although the other party condemned them fiercely and called all this "unjust aggression", they sneered at it.

The weak will be conquered, and the strong will be the master.This is the law of survival that nature taught them, and it is also the creed of life that they have always regarded as the standard.

The men in the grassland are sometimes so simple and rude when they think about things.

Two or three days later, Bayin rushed into Suhebalu's tent: "Suhebalu! The spies are back!"

Sukhbaru said, "Let's talk!"

Bayin shook the scroll in his hand: "This is the distribution map of their camps..."

Suhebaru said with relief: "You have a way, you can even get this?"

Bayin proudly said: "That's right! By the way, according to the information we got, we can..."

……

In Da Shao's general's tent, several commanders and staff officers sat together, all frowning.Ever since Feng Wei brought the [-] troops to Langya Pass, there was no movement from the Tatar side.They did not withdraw their troops or attack, but set up camps around them and surrounded them from a distance.

Feng Wei said: "It can't be delayed anymore... 10,000+ people have to eat every day, which is a huge expense. Even if the supplies arrive, I can't help but wait like this..."

A counselor said: "The Tatars are really smart this time...their back is their hometown. Due to the natural convenience, the number of people is not as large as ours. We will definitely suffer a loss if we face head-to-head. Let us use this trick to drag us down..."

"This time the leader is Suhebalu, who is skilled in martial arts and resourceful. He is a famous God of War in Tatar." Zhao Peiqing said, "I have only heard of him for a long time. This is the first time before the battle. I really can't figure it out. his thoughts."

"It's obvious that he wants to drag us down, there's no doubt about that." The military adviser said, "The only thing we can do is sneak attack..."

Zhao Peiqing always felt that there was something wrong, but he couldn't tell. The military adviser's proposal was echoed by everyone, so he could only say: "It seems that there is no other way."

Soon, the route, time, and location of the surprise attack were all determined, but the leader couldn't be determined for a long time.What Da Shao lacks most is generals. Even at such a critical moment, there are only three or five people in the entire camp who can carry the flag. Zhao and Feng are the most important. If something goes wrong, the entire barracks collapses, and it is not an exaggeration to say that they were defeated without a fight.But a man who is both reliable and resourceful...

"I'll go." Chu Si, who had been quietly listening to their discussion, said, "If you don't have a suitable candidate, I'm willing to give it a try."

"Brother Chu!" Zhao Peiqing hurriedly stopped him, "No! This trip is extremely dangerous, don't play tricks!"

"Brother Zhao," Chu Si looked at him, "I, Chu Si, am also the queen of the general."

Zhao Peiqing paused for a while.

Chu Si's ancestors indeed produced several famous generals, but it was many years ago.Recently the Chu family gradually declined, until Chu Si and his younger brother Chu Mo successively entered the court as officials, the situation was slightly better, but still not the same as at that time.

"Brother Zhao, let me go." Chu Si slowed down and softened his tone, "What's more, there is no better candidate."

indeed so.

No matter how reluctant he is, there is no one else who can replace him.

"The emperor has an order to protect you..." Feng Weigang was stopped by Chu Si when he opened his mouth.

"The general is outside, and the military order is not accepted. General Feng," Chu Si looked at him, "The military situation is urgent."

Feng Wei scratched his head, sighed, and stopped talking.

Shao Jing only regards Chu Si as a rose flower that needs careful care, but completely forgets that the sharp thorns on the flower's body are enough to make everyone fearful.

……

Night fell.

The frontier fortress in the night is brightly lit at this moment.Langyaguan Shao soldiers were on guard, patrolling earnestly to prevent the barbarians from sneaking in. Under the cover of night, Bayin and another Tatar man crouched on the ground, watching everything from a distance.

"Bayin, tell me, when will they act?" Agudamu asked after staying in one position for a while while changing positions.

"Hey, who knows," Bayin casually grabbed a blade of grass and put it in his mouth.

The green grass in March has just emerged, tender green, verdant and lovely, but now I can't see the color clearly in the dark.Bayin's teeth moved back and forth to crush the blades of grass, and the faint scent of green grass permeated his mouth: "Suhebalu told us to guard it."

"I don't know the days of being watched every day... Hey Bayin!" Agudamu bumped into Bayin, and Bayin followed his line of sight. A small group of people quietly emerged from the side door of Langyaguan, almost It was silent, and soon disappeared under the cover of night. If Bayin and Agudamu hadn't kept their eyes on the situation here, they might have sneaked past.

"Agudam, follow them, be careful." Agudam followed with an inaudible "hmm", and Bayin turned his head back to the camp to report.

About five miles away from Tatar's camp, Chu Si and his party stopped and got off their horses.

"Going forward is the Tatar camp," Chu Si bent down, "Everyone act according to the plan. If you are discovered, it is important to save your life."

Those who followed nodded.

"Everyone, you must live." After Chu Si said, he ran towards the destination without looking back.

Chu Si's martial arts skills are average, and he only knows a few skills in self-defense. If he sneaks into the barracks, he will definitely be discovered. Therefore, the task he is responsible for is simple but important - to create chaos.Taking advantage of the chaos, other people can sneak into the commander's tent and take the commander's head. Without the commander, the battle can be settled quickly.

He went around to the top of the air vent of the big camp, took out the flint, and lit the oil-soaked arrows that had been prepared.It is about a hundred feet away from the nearest tent. I shot my arrow... Chu Si was calculating the angle and strength when he heard the sound of Suo Suo. They were faster, but in the blink of an eye, more than 20 people surrounded Chu Si tightly.

trap! !

For a moment, only these two words flashed in Chu Si's mind, and before he had time to think about it, someone said: "Your Excellency Chu is so interested, you came to visit me as a guest of Tatar, why don't you go through the main entrance, and stay in this corner instead?"

He directly recognized his identity.

Chu Si was calm when he saw this. Since he could call out his name by name, he must have figured out his situation in advance. The details of the Tartar...

"Master Chu, why don't you say anything? I'm afraid you think we're neglecting you." The person who spoke was Bayin. Seeing that Chu Si was silent for a long time, he continued, "Although we are barbarians, we still know how to treat guests. Yes. Then 'send' Master Chu to the commander's tent to drink tea and chat."

Chu Si stood up straight, avoiding to come and press his arm: "I'll go by myself." The words showed no panic at all.

Seeing this, Bayin let out a "huh" and said, "Lord Chu is very courageous, please go ahead." With a wave of his hand, more than 20 people escorted Chu Si to the commander's camp.

Chu Si pretended to be calm all the way, but actually took the opportunity to look at the internal situation of the Tatar camp. Bayin saw it, with a half-smile on his face, and covered Chu Si's head with a cloth bag.

Chu Si couldn't see, and was dragged by someone to walk staggeringly. Suddenly, someone pushed him and pulled off his headgear.

Arrived.

His eyes couldn't adapt to the sudden light. He squinted his eyes, and saw a tall and strong figure standing in front of him. Following the movement of that person, the overheated body temperature spread to his face through the skin.

Suhebaru raised Chu Si's face and asked, "Is he Chu Si?"

Chu Si only heard someone answer: "Yes."

Chu Si was shocked, this is not a soldier who sneaked up with him!It turned out to be a Tatar!

"You...!!" Chu Si turned his head and wanted to break free from Suhebaru's restraint, but he couldn't do anything, so he could only say angrily, "You are actually a secret agent!"

The man didn't make any excuses, he just stood aside, lowered his eyebrows, completely ignoring Chu Si.

"Meng En, you've done a good job. Don't worry about what you promised. Go down." Suhebaru let go of Chu Si's hand and took a step back.

Meng En got the order to retreat, leaving only Suhebalu, his cronies and guards, and the "guest" Chu Si in the big tent.

Only then did Chu Si raise his head to look at Suhebalu, and Suhebalu was also looking at him.

Is this the legendary person who climbed the dragon bed of Emperor Dashao?She looks average...but she has pretty good skin...——Sukhbaru.

Is this man in front of him the Tartar god of war? ——Chu Si.

Chu Si was suppressed and unable to move, while Suhe Baru was attracted and forgot to move—the two men met each other, and neither moved nor spoke, but there was a wordless aura spreading, as if they were looking at each other. Two people are engaged in some kind of struggle.Sukhbaru didn't speak, and the trusted guards around him remained motionless and carefully guarded in case there was an emergency that could not be dealt with in time.

"Suhebalu, what about the others?" Geriletu lifted the curtain and came in, breaking the long stare between the two, Suhebalu looked at Geriletu and said: "Shut up, hold .”

After a short pause, he continued, "Don't kill them."

Geriletu nodded: "Okay."

Chu Si was so stared at by Suhebalu that he could barely lift his head, but he still held on with a stubbornness.It was not easy for the two of them to lose sight of each other, and when they heard the news that their companion had been arrested, their hearts arose again.After hearing Sukhbaru's order, he was relieved.

At least his life is safe.

As long as you don't die, you have the hope of going back alive——

"What are you thinking?" Suhebaru raised Chu Si's chin again and looked at him.

Chu Si's mental ups and downs just now, his spirit was at the end of his strength, but he still refused to give in and said: "I'm thinking about the Tatars' way of hospitality."

"Oh?" Sukhbaru waved his hand: "Let him go."

The soldiers who were pressing him did not hesitate for a moment, and let go of Chu Si - this weak man could not pose any threat to them, let alone Suhebalu, their powerful commander.

"How is it now?" Sukhbaru asked.

"Hehe, it's okay." Chu Si moved his stiff arms that had been oppressed all the time, and replied.

The interest in Suhebalu's eyes became even more intense: "Then let Master Chu show you the hospitality of my Tatars."

Sukhbaru turned his head and told his relatives: "Stay here, the tent in the southwest. Treat yourself well."

The confidant agreed, and escorted Chu Si out of the door.

"I don't understand." Bayin, who had been watching all this coldly, said, "Why do you..."

"Bayin, do you still remember the snow falcon I tamed back then?" Sukhbaru suddenly asked a completely irrelevant question.

Bayin froze for a moment, then said, "I remember."

That year, when Sukhbaru was eight years old, he accidentally caught a wounded snow falcon on a branch bent by ice and snow.Sukhbaru took it home and treated its wounds.The frozen little guy slowly recovered, Suhebaru was very happy, he stretched out his hand to stroke it, but what he got was the peck and bite of the snow falcon.

Seeing that his pecked hand did not cry, Sukhbaru ran to find the most famous falcon trainer in the clan. The man told him that falcons belong to the brave men of the sky, and what they yearn for is the boundless sky .Humans can only restrain their bodies, but they cannot restrain their soaring hearts—unless you prove to it that you are stronger than him, he will willingly submit to you.

Sukhbaru asked the falconer how to tame the falcon, and when he returned home, he stared at the snow falcon—the only way to tame the wild eagle was to look at it.The one who looks away first loses. This method is called "boil the eagle".

It's not just "boiling eagles", it's also boiling people.The young Sukhbaru and the snow falcon looked at each other for four days and three nights.

At last the eagle lowered its head in despair.

Sukhbaru stretched out his hand to touch the falcon's white feathers, and it accepted obediently.

Sukhbaru, whose eyes were red and bloodshot, smiled.

"When I met that person's eyes, it reminded me of my eagle." The corner of Suhebaru's mouth slightly raised, and Chu Si's eyes shining with firm light were in his mind.

Even though he is already a prisoner, there is no sign of decadence in his eyes, he is still unyielding, like the most proud eagle, hovering in the vast blue sky, watching everything under his feet.

Such a Chu Si, how wonderful would the taming process be?

Sukhbaru was suddenly filled with anticipation.
