From then on, if the former brothers of Yixiao Huangquan had any quarrel with the rebels again, they would not go to war over it. Everyone works together and is willing to move in the same direction and toward the same goal.
Another half month later, after dozens of encounters, large and small, the rebel army led by Huang Yixiao and Bai Feng had reached 5,000 troops. At its peak, it occupied territory spanning from Yuyi Town to Huaihuang, The grassland area between the two towns of Rouxuan can be adjacent to the Central Plains area in the south, and reaches the foot of Yinshan Mountain in the north.
The names of General Huangquan and General Baifeng naturally quickly spread to the ears of the six-town coalition forces and the Rouran people. The rebels targeted them everywhere, blocking their communications and restricting their actions. The two sides may have different interests, but their judgments about the rebels are similar.
"If it is not eliminated, there will be no peace for a day." They take this seriously.
"Defeating the rebels" quickly replaced "attacking the city" and became the most important thing for both the coalition forces and the Rouran people at the moment. They were extremely confident that they could extinguish the rising flames of resistance among the rebels because this was their last priority. On the familiar grassland battlefield, they have overwhelming force, and they are attacking from two sides...
But just before the fierce battle, an uninvited guest was trying to go straight through the rebel territory at night to avoid taking a detour. Such a taken-for-granted decision could not escape the eyes of the rebel scouts.
After a short while, the uninvited guest was captured without any help and was immediately escorted to Huang Yixiao's account.
Huang Yixiao smelled the opportunity, and immediately summoned his subordinates to bring General Bai Feng to discuss important matters. Then he asked the uninvited guest: "Where are you from and where are you going?"
"Yes... I am from Huaishuo Town, and I am going to deliver a message to the Rouran people." The boy replied.
"Okay, you're being honest." Huang Yixiao said, "I've read your letter, but I didn't understand a word of it. Can you read it for me?" After that, Huang Yixiao returned the letter to other side.
The boy said: "Sir, this is Xianbei literature, even a humble person can't understand it!"
"What! It's Xianbei Wen?" Huang Yixiao grabbed the curled hair on his forehead and said helplessly: "I haven't learned Xianbei Wen either... Come on, please quickly invite Miss Murong and General Bai Feng! "
"General Bai Feng?" The boy was a little surprised and replied: "Could it be that, sir, you are General Huang Quan?"
Huang Yi smiled and said, "What? I thought you didn't know us, but you actually had the guts to walk through our territory on the main road."
"Of course I know him!" he said: "To be honest, the coalition camp to which I belong imprisoned a person who was suspected of wanting to deliver supplies to the town. When he was bored, he loved to tell us stories. One day When he got back, he told about General Bai Feng's heroic deeds in defeating the evil thieves on Taiping Road, which was really satisfying!"
"Oh? Brother Bai has ever done such a big thing?" Before Huang Yi's joke finished, the boy continued: "This time I deliberately broke into the general's territory and came to seek refuge, because I really couldn't bear it. Working under those Xianbei people!"
"Haha, I'm also from Xianbei, aren't you afraid of me?" Huang Yixiao said. Not long after, someone outside the tent called: "General Bai Feng is here!"
But when he saw Bai Feng, Murong Yan and Shen Qiongzhi entering the account one after another, he asked Huang Yixiao: "Brother Huang, I wonder why the late-night summons is about?"
"General Bai Feng, we caught a guy who admires you very much!" Huang Yixiao joked: "In addition, I got a secret order here. I need to ask Miss Murong to take a look. I wonder if I can draft one in Chinese. .”
"Worship me?" Bai Feng looked at the boy whose hands were bound by thick ropes in confusion.
"Yes, General Bai Feng, please accept my bow!" The young man immediately knelt down and kowtowed, saying: "My family members all went crazy and died because of the Tao of Taiping. No one was spared, and I am also helpless. Only when you have nothing to rely on do you choose to join the army."
Murong Yan took the document and flipped through it, then replied: "Brother Huang, since I didn't learn Xianbei script since I was a child, I still can't understand some parts..."
"It's okay, I understand." Shen Qiongzhi, the daughter of Shengdi, stood up at this time and echoed: "I thought there was something important to bother Yan'er, but that's all!"
When Huang Yixiao saw this, he couldn't help but cupped his hands and said in respect: "Then I'll thank you two girls in advance. Come, bring pen, ink, paper and inkstone!"
The two girls began to draft an official document, and within a short time, they presented the official document written in Chinese characters. The content was roughly that Heba asked the Rouran people to send out all their troops to encircle and suppress the rebel army until the rebel army was completely wiped out.
After Bai Feng read it, he immediately asked the young boy: "Are you really here to seek refuge?"
"Yes, I really want to come here, and this letter is absolutely true!"
"According to what the letter said, it seems that He Batao and He Basheng are really afraid of us?" Bai Feng said: "If there is no suspicion of falsely passing military orders, it means that the coalition forces are unwilling to send troops to suppress us, so they want to Please ask Rouran people to complete this matter."
After hearing this, the boy looked sad and said, "General Bai Feng, do you really still doubt me?"
"No, I trust you very much." Bai Feng said: "So, I want to ask you to complete one thing. Please be sure to deliver the letter to Rouran, but it is a revised letter."
"The revised letter?" Huang Yixiao asked, "Brother Bai, what other plan have you come up with?"
Bai Feng said: "Yan'er, Miss Shen, please imitate the handwriting and wording of the original text and record what I say next into a letter in Xianbei script."
"Our army will launch a general offensive in seven days, vowing to wipe out the rebels on the grassland. At that time, we will attack from the west, north, and south. The remaining east side will be the only direction for the rebels to escape. Please forgive me. The army dispatched 10,000 elite troops to garrison here to prevent the rebels from escaping into Yuyi Town."
Before Bai Feng finished speaking, Huang Yixiao questioned: "Ten thousand elite soldiers? We are only five thousand, how can we defeat ten thousand elite soldiers?"
"Brother Huang, please be patient." Bai Feng explained: "We have to understand one thing. The alliance between the Heba clan and the Rouran people is ultimately unreliable. These 10,000 elite soldiers cannot be borrowed. Borrowed, so I thought that the Rouran people would definitely not send all 10,000 troops. We can take this opportunity to make a name for ourselves and fight a beautiful victory to increase our reputation. At the same time, we can also destroy the coalition forces and the Rouran people. That fragile alliance."
"Okay, this is the opportunity to fight. Time waits for no one!" Huang Yixiao saw that the boy's hands were still tied, so he immediately went over to untie him and said, "Brother, I don't know your name yet?"
"My surname is Li, and I am the third eldest child in my family. You can just call me Li San."
"Li San, I ask you to deliver this letter to Rouran people." Huang Yixiao then returned the written letter to Li San. He looked excited and put the envelope back in the bag. Li turned and left.
