Chapter 763 Gao Qiu was wronged four
Can you fight?
As soon as Wu Haogu’s problem arose, Gao Qiu and Taiwei Gao were shocked.
Gao Qiu thought to himself: Why do you ask this? The officials have said that they will not let the provocation... What does the provocation mean? It means starting a war and provocation! You are also a great scholar, why don’t you understand?
Xiao Delis and Xiao Gan were also scared.
This is a naked provocation! Gao Qiu, what does Wu Haogu mean? Is it bluffing or to be honest?
In fact, Xiao Delis led his troops to the Mingtang River area not to invade the land of the Song Dynasty, but to seize the disputed area. In the eyes of Xiao Delis and Xiao Gan, the Song people would never go to war with the Liao Dynasty for the territory of the middle of the Mingtang River, especially the Song people and Xixia are still fighting!
"What if I say I want to fight?" Xiao Gan asked calmly.
"Then let's fight!" Wu Haogu smiled.
What?
Gao Qiu was so surprised that he didn't know what to say?
Wu Haogu is crazy? Can he start a war with Liao Kingdom so rashly? Although the Liao soldiers in front of him seem to be unable to defeat the Sanzhi Army, there are some elite soldiers in the Great Liao Dynasty! If they really fight, they will not say that they are suffering from the creatures. They and Wu Haogu, two warriors who are good at engaging in border provocations, might even have to impeach the civil servants of the Censorate!
"Aren't you afraid that our Daliao soldiers would step on the Jiehe Shangcheng?" Xiao Gan said threatening words, showing his fierce look on his face.
But Wu Haogu laughed: "No, no fear!
Master Xiao, if you want to fight, let’s make an appointment to start the war east of Mingtang River! If you don’t want to fight, please retreat to the east of Dahengshui.”
Not afraid?
Xiao Delis gritted his teeth and thought to himself: You are not afraid, would this Master be afraid?
No, I have built a house in Jiehe Shang Market and a timber shop... If the war starts, it will be difficult. It is not easy for me to work hard to get some money, so I can't pay them all!
"Return to Libao," he said to Xiao Gan in Khitan words, "We can't beat them now, so why not take a step back."
"That won't work," Xiao Gan shook his head, "A step back is equivalent to giving up all the plump grassland between Dahengshui and Mingtangchuan.
And they may be able to get more and more aggressively and then move forward to the Great Hengshui River. Will the Grand Master retreat again then?"
Xiao Delis thought about it and said in Chinese: "Taiwei Gao and Taiwei Wu have come to the general order of the southwest to attack the department. Even if they want to retreat, they must first ask for the imperial edict to attack the department.
Moreover, wouldn’t this retreat give you the great land?"
Wu Haogu smiled: "You retreat, we won't go in... Wouldn't you let the Mingtang River and Daheng River empty? Otherwise, the army of both sides confronted each other with a stream, wouldn't it be a worry every day? If there is no restraint, it might be a big battle. Instead of doing this, it's better to choose a place tomorrow and fight one."
"Why should we retreat? You don't retreat?" Xiao Delis frowned.
"Because our troops are stronger than yours," Wu Haogu pointed to Gao Qiu beside him, "and there is also Taiwei Gao here. If a war breaks out, we will win!"
This reason... is right! If you really want to break up and start a fight, Xiao Delis and Xiao Gan's troops will definitely not be the opponents.
Xiao Delis and Xiao Gan looked at each other, and Xiao Delis said, "Okay, we will retreat east of Daheng River tomorrow. But you cannot enter between Daheng River and Mingtang River."
"A word is determined!" Wu Haogu smiled, "It's just a gentleman's appointment... I and Taiwei Gao are both military officers, but I can't make a contract with Taishi Xiao!"
"clear."
Xiao Delis nodded, and said goodbye with Xiao Gan and left.
"Dalang," Gao Qiu was surprised as the two Khitans left, "You said they were retreating?"
In fact, Xiao Delis's performance is a typical Khitan style. The Khitans are not so scheming. They do not make any mistakes. The Great Liao is not the Western Xia with a small territory. The Great Liao is a semi-nomadic empire with a vast and boundless boundary. How could it throw tens of thousands of young people into it for a small piece of grass?
Wu Haogu smiled, "Why did I say I'm going to retreat? I'm obviously scared away by you!
It’s really a high place in the army, and the Khitan was so scared!”
Gao Qiu shook his head repeatedly, "Dalang, aren't you harming me? How can I compare myself with Fan Wenzheng?"
Fan Zhongyan once served as a strategic pleader in Shaanxi to fight against the Xia Lord Yuanhao, and his performance was pretty good, so he got the evaluation of "there is a Fan in the army, and the Western thieves were brave enough to hear it."
Wu Haogu smiled and said, "Brother Gao, you said something inappropriately. Fan Wenzheng can't compare with you! Fan Wenzheng is just scaring the Western thief... And the Western thief Yuan Hao is not brave enough. Didn't we give the Western thief gold, silver and silk? You scared away the Khitan now. Khitan is better than the Western thief!"
Gao Qiu let out a sigh, "Don't say nonsense, it's enough for you to say this in private. If it spreads, it would be like to put someone on the fire and roast it!"
"I know, I know." Wu Haogu smiled and said, "Since the agreement is completed, let's go back."
"Okay, go back and have a drink!" Gao Qiu smiled, "It's good that they're leaving, so they won't be worried."
"Okay, go back and have a drink!" Wu Haogu smiled, "There are the best wine fairies in our army. Today, we two will stop getting drunk!"
"I will stop drunk!"
Because things went too far, Gao Qiu was not prepared at all and completely took Wu Haogu's path. After returning to the camp, he inspected it first and found that the camp was really hard and was drinking with Wu Haogu.
And I was really drunk and stopped, but only Gao Qiu was drunk, but Wu Haogu was not drunk because Wu Haogu drank white wine with water!
After getting Gao Qiu drunk, Wu Haogu called Brother Zhao Zhong to his big tent and asked Oli to guard the sword outside. No one was allowed to wait!
"Taiwei, Taiwei Gao is drunk?"
"I'm drunk, drunk and unconscious... Brother Zhong, how are you doing?"
"It's ready! 46 Jurchen warriors, 192 Taiwei's dashmen, and 151 utility knights recruited by Jiehe are all reliable people and can attack at any time!"
"Who leads the team?"
"Xiye and Wu Tian."
"good!"
Wu Haogu wiped his palm and smiled, "Okay! Hit them hard... Just hit them so much!"
It is very difficult to get tens of thousands of Khitan soldiers with 389 armored cavalry, but Wu Haogu doesn't have many reliable soldiers to use.
In fact, it is not very reassuring to let 46 young Jurchen Gundam go out to make people feel that these people are not fakes raised by Wu Haogu. However, they also hate the Khitan! And they are relatively simple, and most of them can't speak Chinese. After Zhao Zhongge and Xie also agreed, they promised Wu Haogu that there would be no problems, and Wu Haogu asked them to join.
"Taiwei, Wu Tian is looking for a meeting!"
Oliga's voice came in.
"Come in!" Wu Haogu said, and saw Wu Tian walking in in a hurry.
Wu Tian bowed, "Taiwei, the Khitans are leaving tonight!"
"How can I see it?" Wu Haogu asked.
"Smoke from cooking!" Wu Tian said, "The smoke from cooking in the Khitan camp lasted longer than before this afternoon, for at least two quarters of an hour, so I must be preparing a few meals."
Wu Haogu glanced at Brother Zhao Zhong. Brother Zhao Zhong said, "It's reasonable! Wu Tian, go and rest now, and take people out of the camp after dark... Remember, you must leave in batches, not with followers."
Wu Haogu nodded, "That's it! Be careful not to be injured."
Wu Tianyi bowed, "Here!"
...
Wu Tian’s ability to be a scout was obviously first-class. Just by changing the smoke from cooking, it was accurate to judge that the Khitan army was preparing for a night trip.
It was Xiao Gan's suggestion to leave Mingtangchuan while the night was in the dark. He always felt that things were not very safe, but the person who came was Taiwei Gao! You can tell how cruel this guy was when he looked at his performance in fighting the Dangxiang people.
In the eyes of Taiwei Gao, there were more than 10,000 Khitan soldiers and horses in Mingtangchuan, perhaps they were just a bunch of local chickens and tiles.
"Don't worry," Xiao Delis sat in the handsome tent, looking at Xiao Gan, who was a little restless, "The Song people and Xixia have not finished fighting yet, and they will not go to war with us."
Xiao Gan nodded. He probably wouldn't have started a war... But something that shouldn't have happened, right?
"Tai Shi, you're always worried," Xiao Gan said, "It's better to do this. The lower official took the warriors' rear guard in the Nanpi room to cover the army to retreat."
"That's good," said Xiao Delis, "and let the farther stop, so that it should be foolproof."
After saying that, Xiao Delis looked at it with all his attention again... Although the views in this book are the same and have many fallacies, they can still be viewed.
The great scholars of the Han people wanted to replace Buddha with the principles of heaven, but unfortunately, how can human words compare to Buddha? Human words are just hypotheses, but Buddhas' words are unquestionable.
As I watched, the sky gradually darkened. Xiao Delis's servant brought dinner, which was very simple, including barbecue, naan bread, pickled vegetables, and a pot of water-dried wine. This distilled wine was very popular among the nobles of Liao Kingdom and almost in short supply. Therefore, many profiteers poured water into the wine, but the wine-dried wine-dried wine-dried wine-dried wine-dried wine-dried wine-dried wine-dried wine-dried wine-dried wine-dried wine-dried wine-dried wine-dried wine-dried wine-dried wine-dried wine-dried wine-dried wine-dried wine-dried wine-dried wine-dried wine-dried wine-dried wine-dried wine-dried wine-dried wine-dried wine-dried wine-dried wine-dried wine-dried wine-dried wine-dried wine-dried wine-dried wine-dried wine-dried wine-dried wine-dried wine-dried wine-dried wine-dried wine-dried wine-dried wine-dried wine-dried wine-dried wine-dried wine-dried wine-dried wine-dried wine-dried wine-dried wine-dried wine-dried wine-dried wine-dried wine-dried wine-dried wine-dried wine-dried wine-dried wine-dried wine-dried wine-dried wine-dried wine-dried wine-dried wine-dried wine-dried wine-dried wine-dried wine-dried wine-dried wine-dried wine-dried wine-dried wine-dried wine-dried wine-dried wine-dried wine-dried wine-dried wine-dried wine-dried wine-dried wine-dried wine-dried wine-dried wine-dried wine-dried wine-dried wine-dried wine-dried wine-dried wine-dried wine-dried wine-dried wine-dried wine-dried wine-dried wine-dried wine-dried wine-dried wine-
Just as Shaw Delis was drinking and eating, his army began to set off quietly.
In order to confuse the Song army, the troops that were set out tonight would not take away the camp, and there would be a small number of people left behind the camp and set off after dawn tomorrow.
The remaining troops were divided into three groups, and the auxiliary soldiers who were responsible for driving cattle, sheep and supplies were left first. Then the main force led by Xiao Delis, while Xiao Gan personally led 1,000 soldiers from the Nanpishi Army.
In addition, hundreds of light cavalry were scattered out in advance to protect the large group of people.
This arrangement was arranged by Xiao Gan. In Xiao Delis's opinion, it was really a bit redundant.
I am willing to take a step back. Gao Qiu, what else is there to be dissatisfied with Wu Haogu? This "achievement" is enough for them to brag about in front of Zhao Ji.
Chapter completed!
