On the occasion of rebirth Zhou Sui

Chapter 317 Regardless of previous crimes

Facing Cui Qiji's unabashed flattery and seeing his face stained with blood, Fang Xuanling had no choice but to sigh:

"Okay, I won't tell Duke Yan about this."

Cui Qiji said with a sad face:

"My grandpa already knows about this. I want Mr. Fang to say a few nice words for me in front of my grandpa."

When Fang Xuanling heard this, the smile shifted to his face:

"Then I can't help you. Based on my understanding of Duke Yan, I'm afraid I'm going to make a big fuss out of this matter.

"For the sake of you saying that you treat me as your brother, whether it's true or not, I would like to remind you: wear thicker clothes.

"Just because you are the son of Lord Yan, no one will come to take off your clothes when you want to receive the military stick."

After that, he strode out of the camp.

Cui Qiji followed Fang Xuanling with a dark face.

Seeing Cui Che, Fang Xuanling quickly approached and said with a smile:

"I congratulate you, Duke Ming, on another great victory!"

Cui Che was also smiling, obviously in a good mood.

It wasn't until Cui Qiji came up to him that Cui Che kept a straight face and scolded him. It wasn't until Fang Xuanling helped Cui Qiji speak that Cui Che didn't beat him in public, but he also glared at Cui Qiji and said:

"I will discuss your case with the generals later for disobeying military orders!"

Cui Qiji thought to himself: I really want to make use of the topic. This Fang Xuanling is really a crow's mouth, and he will do whatever he says.

Cui Che ignored Cui Qiji and continued to send people to inquire about the news. Now the Sui army was chasing him north, and he didn't know what the situation was.

In fact, it was not Cui Che's original idea to put sergeants in sheepskin, but in the late Tang Dynasty, Li Keju, the governor of the Lulong Army, sent General Li Quanzhong to lead 60,000 soldiers from Youzhou to attack Yizhou.

Wang Chucun, the governor of the Yiwu Army who was guarding Yizhou, sent 3,000 light soldiers covered with sheepskins and spread them out in the wilderness, setting up an ambush with elite troops.

Li Quanzhong thought it was a flock of sheep, and his men rushed to capture it, resulting in a great defeat.

The man named Quanzhong has some problems with his loyalty.

Li Quanzhong was worried that Li Keju would be blamed, so he simply took the remaining defeated soldiers back and counterattacked Youzhou, forcing Li Keju's family to set themselves on fire.

Cui Che is actually learning from Wang Chucun's old story.

Let’s talk about Eulji Mundeok. He had watched the Khitan cavalry disperse the formation before, and then saw the Sui army coming to cover him up with overwhelming force. He knew that the defeat was irreversible.

He led 10,000 Gaoguli cavalry and 10,000 Mohe cavalry and quickly left the battlefield, leaving the infantry behind to block the pursuing troops for them.

Eulji Wende had long been separated from the chiefs of the five Khitan tribes. He did not even dare to return to the northern camp. He galloped all the way eastward until he reached the intersection of the east and west Liao Rivers, where he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Looking at the 20,000 cavalrymen who had followed him to escape, all looking languid, and thinking of the 40,000 Goguryeo infantrymen whom he had left behind in the Xiliao River, he felt sad for a moment and felt unworthy of his trust in Gao Yuan.

, if you return to China without shame, you will draw your sword and kill yourself.

Fortunately, Yuan Taizuo, who followed him on the expedition, had quick eyesight and quick hands, and grabbed the sword.

Yuan Taizuo was the son of Yuan Ziyou, Molizhi of Goguryeo.

Molizhi was a new official position that appeared in the later period of Goguryeo, equivalent to the prime minister of the Central Plains Dynasty.

Yuan Taizuo shouted:

"It's just a defeat! Why did the general commit suicide!

"The general was not the only one who was defeated by Cui Che. There were so many Khans in the Turks. Did they all commit suicide?

"Although the general is defeated, he will remain useful so that he can avenge his humiliation!

"It doesn't matter if you raise your sword to kill him! A husband is the one who tolerates humiliation and endures humiliation!"

Eulji Mundeok was awakened by his scolding, regained his composure, and finally returned to the country with 20,000 cavalrymen who killed horses for meat.

After Gao Yuan learned the cause and effect, he knew that Eulji Munduk was forced by the situation and did not blame him.

Of course, these are all things for later.

Talking back to the Battle of Xiliao River, Wang Dangwan led his army in pursuit for more than ten miles to the north, broke into the enemy camp, and captured many of them. He even captured alive the chief of the Khitan Chufu tribe who was about to cross the river, and also captured Daji and Tubian.

The head of the chief was brought back.

As for the Fenwen tribe, the Xiwandan tribe quietly slipped away after discovering that there was an ambush in the Sui army's rear camp.

Mai Tiejang, who was in charge of the ambush, rushed to pursue the defeated troops and attacked Ulji Mundeok's army formation. He only sent more than a thousand cavalry to chase them, allowing the two of them to escape.

After the war, after an inventory, Cui Che learned that more than 20,000 prisoners of war had been killed. In panic, they jumped into the Xiliao River, and countless people were drowned.

However, since Cui Che had strictly ordered his troops not to pursue more than thirty miles before the war, the majority of those who successfully escaped the Sui army's pursuit were still in the majority.

Cui Che didn't mean to let the defeated troops go, he was worried that the generals would be busy hunting down the defeated troops and let go of the Khitan tribe on the north bank.

His goal in this battle is not to kill many enemies, but to make the five Khitan tribes surrender.

On the same day, after a big battle, Cui Che crossed the Xiliao River through the pontoon bridge left by the previous coalition forces' southward crossing without stopping.

Fen Wen, who had been lucky enough to escape back to the tribe before, learned that the chiefs of the two tribes of Wandan immediately found the remaining three tribes to discuss their way out.

While the five people were debating whether they should move eastward immediately and escape Goguryeo, or whether they should send envoys south to test Cui Che's tone and see if they would be held accountable for their previous crimes, they finally received news that the Sui army had crossed the river.

"I just told you to leave quickly! Now that the Sui army is about to attack, do we have to continue fighting?"

The chief of Fenwen tribe was full of complaints.

The remaining four people also returned to their tribes one after another, preparing to break camp immediately and defect to Goguryeo.

At the critical moment, they unexpectedly received news that the Sui army did not continue to march north, but camped on the river bank. At the same time, an envoy was sent over, and the envoy was none other than the captured chief of the Chufu tribe.

It was already dark at this time, and everyone gathered together. They all asked Chief Fubu what was going on and how he became Cui Che's envoy.

After the chief of the Fu tribe survived the disaster, his mood calmed down a little. He told everyone about the courtesy he received when he was in the Sui camp, and also mentioned Cui Che's previous promise:

As long as the captive people of Yingzhou are returned and surrendered to the Sui Dynasty, he can guarantee that the Emperor of the Sui Dynasty will not pursue their previous crimes again.

Among the five tribes, many people were actually ready to attach themselves to the Sui Dynasty after the decline of the Turks and find a backer. Of course, they had to find the strongest ones.

However, Yang Jian was busy planning to destroy Chen and did not want to waste energy in the north, so he rejected them and could only rely on Goguryeo.

Now that Cui Che promised not to pursue his previous crimes, and the Sui Dynasty was willing to repay them, the chiefs of the five tribes were all excited.

If given a choice, who would be willing to move to Liaodong, live under someone else's roof, and be completely controlled by Goguryeo from then on?

Considering Cui Che's prestige in northern Xinjiang, he would not deceive them and ruin his reputation.

Fen asked and learned that the chiefs of the two tribes of Wandan and Daji, as well as the people left behind by the two tribes of Tuben, followed the chiefs of the Chufu tribe southward that night and moved to the Sui army camp to pay homage to Cui Che.

Chapter 4 is here, I will watch the Champions League first, Real Madrid will play Manchester City, and the remaining chapter will probably not be released, so I can only make a guarantee of four chapters.
