Northern Dynasties Imperial Industry
Chapter 2: Prisoners at Tongguan
The Eastern traitors and spies had actually appeared in Tongguandongyuan, which immediately made the atmosphere inside and outside Guancheng tense again. Many soldiers of the Western Army who had been recruited into the camp left the camp to look around and inquire.
Li Tai and his party of more than 30 people, with messy robes, bruised noses and swollen faces, were escorted to the plateau by more than 200 soldiers of the Western Army.
The reason why the size of the team has more than doubled is because there were a dozen people who happened to be standing too close to them when they were at the bottom of the plain, and they were also arrested as their accomplices.
Of course, it was also because at the critical moment, Li Tai shouted: "The merit of speaking alive is great, beheading is not enough!"
His original intention was to be afraid of being indiscriminately slashed and killed on the spot. This shout also aroused the idea of making amends for the defeated soldiers of the Western Army around him, making the scene extremely chaotic for a time. Although they and his party became prisoners in an instant, it was okay They all saved their lives.
A knight used a spear to pick up a piece of gleaming thin armor that had just been captured on the back of a donkey, and then pointed at Li Tai who was in the detention team and laughed and said: "This young thief general has such fine armor." , The official rank must not be low!”
Seeing this, the spectators on the ground were filled with envy and panic.
The Western Dynasty has always been poor and weak, and even the senior generals in the army often wear old armor. Therefore, there are many stories of generals who were in danger on the battlefield and were missed as soldiers but saved their lives.
Therefore, one of the contents of military exploits is to seize armored staff ordnance. If the quality is high enough, the reward will be far better than the merit of beheading.
Thin armor is a kind of full-body armor between scale armor and pierced armor. It is easier to maintain than scale armor, and its form is more beautiful than pierced armor. It was originally made by the guards of Liu Song Dynasty in the Southern Dynasty. It has strong protective power, is light and beautiful, and later in the Northern Dynasties. Many middle-level generals of Luoyang Yulin Imperial Guard are also equipped with this armor.
The fine armor in front of them was well styled and maintained an excellent metallic luster. In the eyes of these Western Army soldiers, it was definitely the first-rate fine armor. The credit for capturing such a piece of fine armor alone is enough to be exchanged for ten prisoners of war for envoys or half an acre of fertile land, which is naturally enviable.
But thinking about it again, this young Eastern Bandit general is equipped with such fine armor. He will definitely not be low in the Eastern Army. Generals of this level have already chased him to Tongguan. How far can the Eastern Bandit army go?
"Is it possible that King Hengnon has lost his mission? This can't be possible..."
"Young general, you are still young and don't know many joys in the world. Don't be stubborn and ask for death! When you see the general, he will report your military situation as soon as possible. Yuwen Daxingtai is the most benevolent and will not kill you. I will also reward you with a farm and a family to settle down in Guanxi!”
Shall I sue your grandma?
Li Tai lowered his head and walked in the team. When he heard the comments coming from around him, he felt like crying for a moment.
His ancestors also served as generals in the Northern Wei Dynasty. The fine armor in his memory was a family inheritance from his predecessor, but it was not distributed by the Eastern Wei court. Because he left home in a hurry, he and his father were just aides recruited by Gao Zhongmi privately, and neither of them served in the Eastern Wei court. Get your name and official status.
"Don't be afraid, Alang. The soldiers are greedy for merit and have misunderstandings. If you meet their general and explain it clearly, the misunderstanding will be solved naturally..."
Family member Li Zhusheng came up to comfort him in a low voice, but was immediately pulled away by the escorting sergeant.
When Li Tai heard this, his mood became even more bitter. He had heard the soldiers of the Western Army shouting that Gao Zhongmi had been captured by Zhao Gui, the commander of the left army here, and he realized that something was wrong.
The Mangshan War against the Western Wei Dynasty was a disastrous defeat. Whether it was to express anger or shirk responsibility, Gao Zhongmi, the man who directly triggered the war between the two countries, was an excellent target. As Gao Zhongmi's staff, how could he and others benefit from it?
In troubled times, military territory is the foundation. With these, you are a hero. Without them, you are nothing! Is Hou Jing fierce or not? Once he lost the land of Henan, he was just a lost dog in the Southern Dynasty, and was used by Xiao Yan of Nanliang as a bargaining chip in negotiations with the Eastern Wei Dynasty.
Gao Zhongmi's ability and reputation were far inferior to Hou Jing's. Hou Jing at least went all the way to Jiankang in the Southern Dynasties. He didn't remember Gao Zhongmi's other deeds after the Mangshan War in history! Moreover, even if Gao Zhongmi could still struggle, he would not be able to resolve his current critical situation.
Even if he can rely on the advantage of historical prophets and see the opponent's general telling Gao Huan that he will not take advantage of the victory to pursue the victory, he is still in a dilemma whether the opponent believes in him or not. The critical failure of the Mangshan battle is already a foregone conclusion.
"May I ask this military leader, which general is guarding this place?"
At this critical moment of life and death, he tried hard to suppress the panic in his heart and calm down. He squinted the eye that had been swollen by some bastard's eye-sealing hammer just now, turned around and asked in a low voice a sergeant of the Western Army who was escorting him.
"Why, you still want to inquire about our military aircraft? So what if I tell you, the general here is my lord's leader!"
The Western Army soldier rolled his eyes at him angrily, and then sneered.
How many leaders? Is this a noun or a quantifier? Are all you soldiers in the Western Army so tight-lipped? You have said it but seem not to have said it!
Li Tai didn't dare to ask any more questions, he just lowered his head and thought carefully.
His own knowledge base did not support such an accurate search, and the memory of his predecessor left even less information. The only ones who had any impressions about the personnel of the Western Wei Dynasty were Xingtai Shangshu, Li Yuan, the founder of the government, who first went to Hulao to support him, and Li Yuan, the founder of the government. It was Yu Jin who had fought alongside them and abandoned them in Hengnong.
I wonder if the sergeant’s answer to the number of leaders included Li Yuan and Yu Jin, let alone Yu Jin, that unloyal old fox.
In my predecessor's memory, I had a pretty good impression of this Li Yuan. He enthusiastically introduced himself to relatives when they met, but the old man Li Xiao was relatively cold to him. I thought this Li Yuan was just a powerful man from the troubled times who pretended to be the Li family of Longxi.
But Li Tai didn't care about this. If Li Yuan happened to be in the city and could save him, then he would definitely recognize this relative on behalf of the Li Tai branch of the Longxi Li family!
You have to recognize Li Hu, he is a thick thigh! If you can talk to Li Hu about Zhao Mu, whoever is older or younger will both make money. It’s quite exciting to think that all the descendants of Li Tang in the future will be his juniors!
By the way, his name is Li Tai, and he has the same name as Li Shimin's son. Forget it, let’s talk about the present moment. My name is Brother Li Hu, and you call me your ancestor.
While he was daydreaming, Tongguan Pass City had arrived. Li Tai was planning to raise his head to take a look at the elegance of this ancient pass, but he was held down and unable to raise his head, so he was escorted into the city gate.
The atmosphere in Guancheng was much more subdued and solemn compared to the noisy plains. Several soldiers of the Western Army who were mistakenly arrested and shouted injustice along the way did not dare to make any noise anymore, but there was a bit of strict military order. smell.
There was an officer standing in the pass. When he saw them entering the city, he stopped them and questioned them. After learning the whole story, the officer's expression also changed. He pointed at Li Tai and said in a deep voice: "Bring this thief general into the hall alone. The other miscellaneous persons will be detained at the side gate and interrogated separately!”
After that, two strong soldiers in Guan Nei tied up Li Tai with stronger ropes, then put a stick under his arm and dragged him to the Yamen in Guan Nei.
"The thief general looks young, but he is still calm in the face of danger. He is a bit brave! But my military sword is sharp, no matter how tough you are, it will be in vain!"
When the officer saw that Li Tai was not frightened and begged, he was slightly surprised for a moment, and then sneered and said threateningly.
Li Tai's mouth trembled again after hearing this. How could he not be afraid of life and death? But now he felt mostly absurd, not only because of his time travel, but also because of the misunderstanding of his identity by these Western troops.
It was about the military plane being chased by the East Thieves, and the officers did not dare to delay and neglect. They quickly brought Li Tai to the Yamen Hall and asked the guards on both sides of the Yamen Hall to come in and report.
"Idiots, a few idiots with clumsy writing! My words are not clear enough? Why can't I write a book?"
Li Tai was stood on the outside of the government hall in an extremely awkward posture, and his head and neck were tied up so that it was difficult to move. While enduring the pain, he was still thinking about how to save himself, when a series of angry shouts came from the government hall. The shouting and cursing was also mixed with a few bytes of Xianbei proverbs.
His predecessor knew the Xianbei language. After all, North Korea had been ruled for a long time. Although Emperor Xiaowen changed customs, the Xianbei people in the lower classes in the countryside were not completely Chineseized. After Gao Huan and other Beizhen military leaders took control of Hebei, the Hu wind became stronger in Hebei.
Gao Ao Cao was famous, and others, including Gao Huan, would not talk nonsense in front of him. However, as his little fan brother's predecessor, it was obvious that he did not have such power and intimidation, and it was inevitable to be exposed to Xianbei language and customs on a daily basis.
So Li Taiting understands Xianbei dialect, but he just can't speak it. His predecessor prided himself on Chinese clothes and never uttered nonsense. As for him, his speech is even more unfamiliar. Even if he understands it, he still has to speak it. It takes a few twists and turns in your mind to make the difference.
Li Tai heard the general's nonsense and curses in Chinese in the Yamen hall, and he didn't understand it. However, he was also worried that the anger would be vented on him later, but then there was another sound. A series of curses suddenly ignited the fire of hope in his heart.
"Hengnong has few soldiers, and Wang Ide's political power is weak. It is not surprising that he failed to live up to Daxingtai's post. Guandong and Chang'an, there is no place where the bones cannot be buried! Even if the east thieves catch up, it is not terrible! I only hate Zhao Gui, a dog thief, Abandoning the army and leaving first, my right army will be defeated and alone in the battle. It is hateful, hateful!"
The soldiers came inside to report, and the shouting and cursing in the hall became more violent. After hearing this, Li Tai's eyes suddenly lit up as he thought of who the general in the hall was.
Some leaders, it turns out they really are some leaders!
The Battle of Mangshan in the Western and Eastern Wei Dynasties was a tortuous and bizarre process, and both sides had their own regrets and failures. It is precisely for this reason that the process of the war and the performance of the combatants have always been talked about and discussed a lot.
Li Tai really didn't know if these leaders were placed elsewhere, but if they were placed in the battle of Mangshan, and when he heard the other side's shouts and curses, Li Tai immediately remembered that he was the commander-in-chief of the Right Army of the Western Wei Dynasty. Some benefits!
After learning the identity of the other party, an idea suddenly flashed in Li Tai's mind, and he had no time to think carefully. He immediately shouted loudly: "Comrades are friends, and common enemies are relatives! I and the general hate Zhao Gui. Please write down his ugliness and evil deeds." Carry it forward!”
