Chapter 445: Kindness Does Not Control Soldiers
The long whip suddenly flew out and caught the fishing rod that was sliding quickly on the water surface, dragging it back. The fishing rod left the water, the fishing line stretched straight, and the water The fish was so painful that it flew out of the water with a pop, turned over in the air, and fell back into the water with a splash. People on the shore cheered in unison. This fish was unexpected. It's big, at least about a hundred pounds.
The officer who used the whip was extremely experienced and had the right tightness. Within a moment, the big fish was pulled to the shore. It looked exhausted. It floated in the water and did not move much. .
Tie Le squatted down, held the fish's gills with one hand, and carefully removed the hook with the other hand. Then with a gentle push, he actually pushed the fish into the deep water.
The fish seemed a little unbelievable that it had regained its freedom. It raised its head above the water, spit out a few bubbles, looked at Tie Le several times, then swung its tail and got into the water. Down, leaving only circles of ripples.
Tiele stood up, shook the water in his hand, and said: "This fish should be the fry that was put in after the reservoir was built. I didn't expect it to have grown so big."
"Your Majesty, you presided over the construction back then. The Banmenxi Reservoir has benefited hundreds of thousands of people in the surrounding areas and created millions of acres of fertile farmland!” The young officer wielding the whip smiled and said: “This achievement alone is enough to make those in Yandu just talk. Shame on the guy who is good at kung fu!”
“My mother has told me since I was a child that farming is the foundation!” Tiele said: “Although we in Dayuan used to focus on herding, we still rely on the weather for our livelihood. Once a natural or man-made disaster occurs, it is easy to suffer heavy losses and be unable to recover. But agriculture is different. Look at these millions of acres of fertile farmland. We failed and left, but the fields were still well cultivated. Now we are back. Maybe it will be us who harvest it this autumn. "
"The Queen is far-sighted!" the officer flattered. This officer turned out to be Tie Le's wife Da Yu'er, who was really good at whipping.
"My mother is not far-sighted, but she has been hearing about it since she was a child!" Tie Le shook his head and smiled: "The Central Plains has been hit hard many times, but it has always been able to recover quickly from the hits. The reason why the land is recovering is because it is mainly about farming, but if we suffer a heavy blow, it may disappear at any time. This is the difference! Because good farmland can gather people! Look at this Banmen! Although there have been wars and fighting around the creek reservoir, with this water source for irrigation, more and more villages are gathering together. ”
"When we win this battle and reunify Dayuan, Your Majesty, you can show your great ambitions and plan the future of our Dayuan!" Dayu'er put away his whip.
"I hope so!" Tie Le smiled and nodded: "I'd like to lend you some good words!"
The horse's hoofbeats sounded urgently, Gao Qunshu got off his horse and walked towards Tie Le.
"Your Majesty!" Gao Qunshu said with a cupped hand: "Our army is making good progress. Over a spread area of more than a hundred miles, we have wiped out more than fifty advanced positions, forts, and outposts of the opponent, large and small. Stronghold, nearly a thousand enemies were eliminated. The Beiting Protectorate was defenseless and was obviously stunned. So far, our scouts have not found any signs of organized troops and generals preparing for counterattack, but they are in a hurry. "Meaning."
As soon as he heard this, Dayu'er suddenly became excited: "General Gao, in this case, should we speed up and go straight in? If we can capture Qingtongxia City in one fell swoop, wouldn't we? Isn’t there an excellent base for advancement? ”
Gao Qunshu smiled and bowed and said: "Theoretically, it is like this, empress!"
Da Yuer blinked her eyes and turned to look at Tie Le. She is not stupid. Gao Qunshu said that in theory, it is like this, then The meaning behind the words is nothing more than that it is not actually the case.
Sure enough, Tiele said: "Tell the forward soldiers to restrain themselves and don't run too fast, or you may fall into the enemy's trick!"
Gao Qunshu nodded: "Your Majesty, bronze The people around the gorge were extremely happy when they heard that Tiele had returned to fight again. The surrounding villages and towns all sent items to reward the army. Many squires and elders wanted to see Your Majesty. I will temporarily leave them in the big tent. Are you going to see me?"
"Of course I want to see you!" Tie Le said with a smile: "It's rare that they still remember me.
"When His Majesty was in Qingtongxia City, he was very kind to them. How could they dare to forget? Then I'll go down and make preparations. Since Your Majesty wants to see you, you always want to give them something. I think it's better to treat them to a meal!" "Okay!" Tie Le said.
Watching Gao Qunshu leave, Dayu'er was a little puzzled: "Your Majesty, why don't you take advantage of the situation and march in?"
"Because this time, our place is not the main battlefield. !" Tiele said: "We are killing too fast and progressing too quickly, which is not conducive to the opponent's gathering of troops! This time, we are the bait, and our goal is to attract more troops from the Beiting Protectorate. I hope that when I arrive at Qingtongxia City, the reinforcements mobilized by the Beiting Protectorate will be not far away from me. If the ship is turned around in a disaster, as long as they arrive around me and a war suddenly breaks out in Yandu, they will be able to do it. It’s too late to turn back. By the time they react, the war in Yandu is over!” If it is all sprinkled on you, will you still be able to stand out?" Da Yu'er's eyes turned red.
Tie Le laughed loudly, tapped Dayu'er's helmet with his riding crop, and said, "It doesn't matter whether I can go out, right? As long as Zhebie's side wins a big victory, it doesn't matter if my side loses troops and generals, even if they die, Here, the Yuan Dynasty is finally unified again. It would be better if I can fight out and become the emperor. If I can’t fight out, it’s actually not bad for my elder brother Zhebie!”
Dayu’er lowered his head sadly! .
“Do you have to come for such a trick to lure troops?”
“It’s not my fault, who can attract the main force of the Beiting Protectorate?” Tiele said : "This is the best time. Li Dachui is not in Beiting, Xiao Changcheng is pregnant, and over at Yangguan, Linghu Zhishu leads an army to approach Yangguan. If there is a chance, he will even attack Yangguan directly. Attack."
"What if they capture Yangguan?"
Tie Le laughed loudly, "If Linghu Zhishu captures Yangguan, then our whole game of chess will be ruined. The problem is that this kind of thing is basically impossible to happen. Let's go, don't think about it. Duo, this is a big game, we are just a corner here! Let's go have a few drinks with those squires and old men. The Emperor and Queen of Yuan Dynasty personally toasted them and kept them for three days and three nights. Can't sleep! "
In Qingtongxia City, Xiao Chenggong stood in front of the sand table, pulled up the blue flags and put them aside, and planted small red flags in these places.
The door was pushed open with a clang, and a general strode in. Xiao Chenggong raised his head and glanced at him, then lowered his head and looked at the sand table in front of him.
"General Xiao, we clearly know that the enemy is about to attack, why don't we notify the soldiers at the checkpoints and fortresses ahead to retreat?" The general asked loudly with a choked voice.
Xiao Chenggong put down the flag in his hand, looked at the other party, and said: "Retreating all the soldiers at the front checkpoint is to tell Tiele that we are fully aware of your plan. I am here to lure the enemy deeper. ”
The general's eyes were red, he took two steps back, sat on a chair with a bang, held his head, and said in pain: "They died in vain!"
"So, mercy does not control the army! "Xiao Chenggong exhaled a breath of turbidity.
