The wind was bitter and the snow was blank.
The bitter north wind whined through the valley, whining and blowing the snow on the cliffs.
The cavalry fed the horses and let them roam freely, and they all gathered around Liu Lushuai, wanting him to give him an idea so that he could find a way to live.
No one wants to die until they are in a desperate situation, but they don't want to give up if there is still a little hope.
What's more, the defeat of Yunzhou was not because they were afraid of the war, but because Wu Yizong, the commander, was incompetent, which affected the three armies.
However, after listening to Liu Lvshuai's words, everyone's hearts were cold, and the last glimmer of hope was extinguished.
"Brothers, what should we do, we can't wait for death."
"Yes, it's better to go back to the Turks and work hard, desperately to save one's capital, and desperately earn one."
"Brothers, I think the terrain here is dangerous, and it can be said that one man is too close to open it, or we will occupy the mountain here and be the king."
"Why don't we run, run there, the world is so big, there is always a place for our masters.
Khitan, Goguryeo, Western Regions, or Turkic" "Bang" This person was talking energetically, but Liu Lvshuai's big mouth beat half of his face into a millet bun, and even knocked out several teeth.
This is not over, Liu Lvshuai kicked it up with a big foot, looking like that, it was a dead hand, only to hear a "bang", the man fell on his back to the sky, and slid a long way along the frozen ground.
Liu Lvshuai strode forward, his bull's eyes spewed fire, his beard trembled, and he roared loudly: "Do you know why Lao Tzu beat you?"
Your kid has eaten people's food for decades, but you still want to go to the Turks after eating it all into the stomach of the livestock, do you want to be the second Xu Jingye Lao Tzu is beating you for your father, your mother, and your ancestors, so that your ancestors will not be able to live in peace when they die. ” Liu Lvshuai finished scolding this person, and then turned around and pointed at a person and scolded: "And you, you can think of it, occupy the mountain as the king."
You think that now is the great chaos in the world in the last years of the Great Sui, with 36 roads against the king, 72 roads of smoke and dust, killing people on their backs, and rivers of blood, and then you will take refuge in a Ming lord to get a founding hero. ” Then, he stretched out his big fan-like hand and pointed at everyone one by one, and said, "Do you have old fathers and mothers in your family, do you have brothers and sisters in your family and you, and you have wives and children at home."
You are all thinking about running for your life, thinking about being a bandit, thinking about joining a foreign race, haven't you thought about them?"
No one jumped out of the stone, they were all raised by their fathers and mothers, and there were brothers and sisters, wives and children at home.
Even if he is only a pawn, it is not enough to raid the house, but the children of the family will no longer be qualified to serve in the army, and the benefits of being exempt from forced labor and taxes will undoubtedly be recovered.
Their children and grandchildren are all living in humiliation, suffering from the white eyes and squeezing of their neighbors, and no one even wants good people to be slaves and maids.
What to do The people were desperate, and suddenly felt that the bitter north wind was nothing, because their hearts had frozen and were gradually breaking.
Liu Lvshuai stood tall in the face of the howling cold wind, waved the horsewhip in his hand vigorously, and roared: "What is the terrible thing about Dute Niang's drooping head, what is the terrible impossibility is that the head has fallen off the big scar."
Lao Tzu lived to deliver the military information of the fall of Yunzhou to the imperial court, not expecting to redeem the merits, but only asking the imperial court to give a chance to let Lao Tzu wear the guilt and fight the Turks, until he died in battle, Lao Tzu would use the Turks' heads to clear his family's name.
In front of Bowang County is Bowang County, where is our end, and then, the Bowang County Commander sent someone to send the enemy situation to the Shendu, and we are waiting for the disposal of the imperial court in Bowang.
Lao Tzu's ugly words can be said in front, remember his identity, there is nothing to eat, Lao Tzu kowtows to the county order and borrows food from him.
However, if anyone is doing evil in Bowang, don't blame the knife in Lao Tzu's hand for being ruthless."
The setting sun stained the western sky red, and the clouds were steaming and blue, extremely bright and gorgeous.
In front of the city gate of Bowang County, three or five old soldiers leaned against the low loess city wall, squinting at the passing of the sunset.
One of the old soldiers said: "It's almost time to close the city gate, it's freezing this day, it's like that sooner or later."
Brothers, my boy has peeled a wild dog today, and they all come to my house for a drink at night."
"Okay, but your family has a large population, and it is not enough to chew, so let's bring the wine."
Another veteran said with a smile.
Bowang is not a border city, and the imperial court does not have a garrison here, but there are always a few people who watch the city gate, so after the state government reported and the military department approved, twenty retired veterans were summoned and given two fire formations, which were hung under the name of the county lieutenant.
When the Tang army reached a certain age, or was injured and no longer suitable for high-intensity combat, it would be ordered to retire, and his sons and nephews would inherit the establishment of the government army and continue to fight for the country.
These veterans are almost fifty or so, with gray hair, old arms and legs, that is, they are making appearances.
However, you can't let the bad guys guard the city gate, these bad guys bully the vendors in the vegetable market, there is no oil and water to guard the city gate, and they drink the north wind all day long, they are not in the mood or interest.
Several veterans happily chatted about fragrant dog meat and fiery soju, and walked to the city gate hole with spears in their arms, preparing to close the city gate.
Suddenly, the sound of horses' hooves rumbled, and when I followed the sound, a black spot appeared in the snow to the north, and in the blink of an eye, the black spot became larger and larger.
After all, the veteran army of the "brigade of cavalry" is not a bad person, although he is old and has weak arms and legs, but he has participated in battles and does not lack experience and eyesight.
"Even if it is the messenger of the Yunzhou army, ten or twenty horsemen will stand up to the sky, how can there be such cavalry" The old army saw the cavalry roaring over, but he didn't think about the Turks, this is Bowang, and it is still too far away from the Turks of Teniang to be touched.
Five hundred iron horsemen, roaring on the snow all over the ground, the afterglow of the setting sun splashed on them, looking embarrassed.
The cavalry of the brigade came to the city gate dozens of feet away, and stopped one after another with the gestures of the leading knights, but the movements were different in speed and slowness, and the formation was also scattered.
Liu Lushuai stepped forward on his horse, came to the city gate and bowed his hand to a few old soldiers: "A certain is the Yueqi under the account of the governor of Yunzhou Wudadu, and there is an urgent military situation to enter the city to meet the county order." ” Several old families looked at each other, and their eyes were full of suspicion, and they slandered in their hearts: When did my Datang's Yue Qi mix up with this virtue, all of them were ragged and embarrassed, similar to begging for children, but they lost the battle As soon as this thought came to their minds, they forcibly dispelled it.
Because they have heard that there are 120,000 troops under the account of the governor of Yunzhou, not to mention that Xuewei Qinghuo went to the prairie to sweep through the prairie, it is no problem to defend Yunzhou City.
However, none of this has anything to do with them, these people are real Tang people, not Turkic disguises.
Moreover, everyone said that they wanted to meet the county order, so take them there:
