Tuoba Yanran also stood beside Tuoba Hong, and became nervous when she heard the news that Tuoba Shao had died.
As a member of the royal family, Tuoba Shao was outstanding both in terms of literary talent and martial arts.
Tuoba Shao was neither greedy nor in love with power. He supported Tuobahong to ascend the throne and helped Tuobahong stabilize the government. After that, Tuoba Shao resigned from all official positions.
If there is a need for war, Tuoba Shao will lead the troops without hesitation. Moreover, Tuoba Shao never got involved in government affairs and was willing to help Tuoba Hong. To a certain extent, Tuoba Shao is not only the teacher of Qiu Dunliang, Che Kunji and others, but also the teacher of Tuoba Hong and Tuoba Yanran.
When it comes to fame, Tuoba Shao is very high.
There is no selfishness.
Just like this, Tuoba Yanran was also shocked and even a little worried.
Tuoba Yanran did not panic and ordered: "Open the city gate and let Tuoba Zhen and others enter the city."
The order was passed on and the city gate was opened.
Tuoba Zhen, Qiu Dunliang, Che Kunji and others all entered the city and quickly came to the tower.
Everyone bowed and knelt down to apologize.
Tuoba Hong recovered from the shock and said in a deep voice: "What is going on in this battle? It is obvious that the front lines have been facing each other, and the emperor's uncle also sent a letter before about adopting a strategy of delaying consumption, which put Zhao Shan in trouble and even made him Zhao Shan was attacked by Da Qian internally, so why was he suddenly defeated?"
"Your Majesty..."
Tuoba burst into tears and couldn't control his emotions for a while.
Others also did the same, all with sad expressions, all coming from sadness.
"Shut up!"
Tuoba Hong scolded, looked at Li Xiangyang, and asked: "Li Xiangyang, you are the counselor next to the emperor, what is going on?"
Li Xiangyang did not dare to hide anything. He started from the confrontation between the two armies and explained that Zhao Shan arranged for Zhou Huhou to challenge the battle, kill Jin Sanzhan and Han Nanbang, and seriously injured Da Xigu.
After the confrontation, Tuoba Shao was humiliated by Zhao Shan giving a woman pink clothes, but Tuoba Shao still kept quiet.
Finally, Zhao Shan suddenly led troops to attack, using 3,000 mares and ponies to attract the war horses in the camp, and attracted 20,000 war horses away, causing turmoil in the camp.
In particular, Zhao Shan personally charged into the formation and broke up the camp in the first battle. In addition, the army had no horses. They escaped and were overtaken by Zhao Shan. Tuoba Shao personally stood behind and delayed to save everyone and retreat.
After Li Xiangyang finished speaking, he kowtowed with his head and said: "Your Majesty, Chief Tuoba was killed because of us. Please forgive me."
"Your Majesty, please convict me!"
Tuoba Zhen, Che Kunji, Da Xipu and others spoke one after another.
After listening to this, Tuoba Hong had a look of shock on his face and murmured: "How could Zhao Shan know that our camp is full of stallions and actually whip the mares and ponies to stir up the war horses?"
"This year, all stallions were used. No one cared because it was arranged this way. I didn't expect that this time, Zhao Shan would be used to stir up the morale of the army and break the camp in one battle."
"Zhao Shan is really cunning."
The layout of using a mare and a pony is too weird.
Tuoba Hong had never heard of it.
Zhao Shan gave Tuoba Shao women's clothes, and Zhou Huhou killed Han Nanbang and others with a hammer. Although it hurt morale, it was not too cruel. The loss of 20,000 war horses can be imagined, and the impact on the morale of the army can be imagined.
The most important point is that the 80,000-strong army collapsed on the front line, and less than a hundred people escaped. Although many people fled, the losses in this battle were unbearable by Tuoba Hong.
call! !
Tuoba Hong took a long breath and said again: "Are you sure that the emperor's uncle was killed?"
"uncertain!"
Tuoba Zhen shook his head and said: "The general manager said that he would stay and fight to the death, and he would never live alone. If the general manager has the will to die, he will definitely fight to the death."
Although Tuoba Hong was irritated, he knew he couldn't mess up. He said calmly: "If you don't get definite news, you can't be sure that the emperor's uncle has been killed. Zhao Shan has won, and he knows that killing people will not help."
"The living uncle is the most important thing."
"This war crime is not yours. It's not that you are incompetent, but that Zhao Shan is too cunning. The war has already happened. Let's take a good rest and make meritorious service."
"Everyone, go down and rest."
Tuoba Hong made arrangements.
He really wanted to deal with the person, but the matter was already here, and further dealing with the person would only cause people's hearts to wander. Instead, it would be better to treat the person with care, and not deal with everyone, so that everyone would be willing to fight to the death for revenge.
Tuoba Zhen and others were grateful, kowtowed and bowed before retreating one after another.
After everyone retreated, Tuoba Hong clung to the city wall with his five fingers, his eyes reddish, and murderous intent flashing in his eyes.
Tuoba Yanran sighed in her heart.
She had long advised Tuoba Hong not to go to war with Daqian, but to reconcile the two countries. When you encounter the rise of a lion and cannot stop it, but insist on trying to stop it, you will only be crushed.
The only way is to show kindness.
Tuoba Hong doesn't want to, and everyone in the country wants to fight to the death. So that we have the current results.
Tuoba Yanran thought for a while and took the initiative: "Brother Emperor, the situation is very delicate. I will go there personally to broker a truce between Daqian and Dawei. The current truce between the two countries is good for Daqian and Daqian. I believe it can be done.”
"no!!"
Tuoba Hong answered without hesitation. He took a deep look at Tuoba Yanran and said coldly: "I asked you to go find Zhao Shan. It's like a meat bun that beats a dog but never comes back."
Tuoba Yanran said: "Brother, why do you have to be so strong?"
Tuoba Hong said: "You can just take care of the affairs in the army and the court. I will arrange the envoys to negotiate, and I will choose my own."
Tuoba Yanran frowned and said: "Brother, if you send someone now, it will be easy to get killed. I know his nature. He would rather take the straight path than ask for help. Arranging people to negotiate will not work."
"Impossible, absolutely impossible!"
Tuoba Hong looked confident and said in a deep voice: "Zhao Shan did win a battle, but Zhao Shan's career is in a mess, and it is impossible to tangle with Wei. If I fight to the death with Zhao Shan, he will not be able to hold on."
"well……"
Tuoba Yanran glanced at Tuoba Hong resentfully.
What a stubborn brother!
Tuoba Yanran slowed down and said, "Brother Emperor, where is our bet?"
Tuoba Hong snorted and said forcefully: "In the face of national events, what kind of bet should we talk about? The key now is to arrange envoys to negotiate and exchange the emperor's uncle and the prisoners back. You stay with me well Lone Bamboo City. Fighting on the battlefield is a man's business. You, a girl, just cultivate your moral character."
Tuoba Yanran shook her head helplessly.
The envoys of the Wei Dynasty were on an envoy trip, and it was impossible to use the situation to threaten her man.
Seeking death!
Tuoba Hong ignored Tuoba Yanran and went directly back to the palace to summon Murong Tao, the doctor of the Ministry of Rites, and ordered Murong Tao to go on an envoy.
Murong Tao was fifty years old. He was born in the period of decline of the Great Qian Dynasty and grew up in the period of the prosperity of the Northern Wei Dynasty. He had great confidence in the Northern Wei Dynasty.
He has always looked down upon Da Qian.
Murong Tao received Tuoba Hong's instructions, thought about the words of the envoy, and headed south.
Zhao Shan wiped out Tuoba Shao's army, rested for a while, and then quickly headed north. The two sides headed towards each other. Murong Tao only walked for one day when he encountered Zhao Shan's army heading north.
Murong Tao came to see him immediately.
After the soldiers informed him, Murong Tao was brought to Zhao Shan. He held his head high and his eyes were stern: "Murong Tao, a doctor in the Ministry of Rites of the Wei Dynasty, came as an envoy under the order of His Majesty the Emperor of the Wei Dynasty and met Emperor Zhao."
Zhao Shan smiled coldly and asked, "You are here on behalf of Tuoba Hong. What do you want?"
Murong Tao's eyes were sharp and he threatened: "I came to save Emperor Zhao's life. You are already about to die. Don't you know?"
