The burning grassland is very terrifying, not only the horror caused by the fire, but also the ethnic groups that originally inhabited that piece of land...but not only people, but also some other animals. They began to flock in order to avoid the fire. Run away in groups.

The fire on the grassland is really too big, or too many plants have been burned, black smoke billowed into the sky, covering an unknown area of ​​the sky, even in the Yanmenguan area, you can see the dark sky in the distance. one slice.

"Bisons, wild horses, wolves..., leopards, jackals... all kinds of animals, they are fleeing in groups to the southeast." Li Tan said of the intelligence collected by the scouts: "Those Animals do not attack each other as they usually do. No one cares about anyone."

　　 will be burned to death. Probably only humans will continue to kill each other when they know that natural disasters are coming. Animals will only obey instinct and stay away from disasters that are simply impossible to resist. So, if one day you see all kinds of animals in the food chain that are supposed to attack each other "harmoniously" running together, you should know that there must be some disaster.

　　 "The southeast direction where the animals fled is where the enemy is, right?" Yu Yi got the answer and couldn't help but gloat: "They must be panicking now."

According to the description of the scout, he saw fewer animals in his entire life than he saw at a glance, and there were so many species that he couldn't recognize them at all. Large animals trampled on small animals, and their migration was a scene of blood flowing into rivers. In progress.

Liu Yan can imagine what it looks like. It is not an exaggeration to call it the cruelest elimination of strong and weak under a round of disasters. Not only the weak and small groups will be eliminated by the powerful ones passing by. In fact, Insufficient physical strength, insufficient stamina, and insufficient intelligence all became victims in that round of the elimination round.

　　 The African continent has a large-scale migration of animal populations every year. Let alone why they migrate. In the process, the old, weak, sick and disabled will die halfway through the migration, leaving behind some healthy and strong animals. Although it seems a bit cruel, animals that can successfully reach new habitats compete for the opportunity to leave offspring, and the genes of the strong are passed on.

　　 "Race competition has never been mild." Liu Yan didn't need everyone to understand, and continued: "Nation and nation are always in the process of competition for survival, and there is no difference between humans and animals."

In order to survive, almost all means can be used, including setting fires on the grasslands, but this time the Han army set fires on the grasslands. The goal at the beginning was really not to target hostile ethnic groups, but to prevent the locusts in Xigaoche from going south. The goal seems to have been achieved, but the consequences are too serious.

　　 Liu Yan asked pertinently: "How is Rouran?"

　　 Sangyu has taken on the role of the long history of the march in the patrol team, and sorting out information is one of the tasks. He said with an inexplicable expression and tone: "Yu Jiulü Bati's first order after returning home was to shrink his forces, including sending people to the front line with Donggao Che, Tuoba Remnant and Murong Remnant."

　　 They have gradually come to realize that the grassland is really important to the nomads. It is important that no matter which area is set on fire, as long as it is done, they will have the consciousness of becoming a public enemy of the grassland.

　　 "We caught some Dingling people." Li Tan said with some embarrassment: "Their mission is to go to any place where there are people and spread the news that we set fire on the grassland."

"We have made relevant speculations." Sang Yu took the topic and said: "The relationship between Rouran and Dahan will be frozen, and some of the possibility will turn into a hostile relationship. The rest of the prairie people, including those who have been with us Those who have entered a state of war and those who have not, have great feasibility, will unite and target us."

　　 Sang Yu's so-called "we" is not a general term for the entire Han nation, but he believes that if the patrol team does not withdraw, it is almost inevitable to fall into a siege.

　　 Li Tan must say his own speculation: "Your Majesty, there is another thing." He continued to say with the expression of eating a fly: "The news of the arson of the grassland may also affect our internal..."

　　The Han country has annexed quite a lot of ethnic groups. In addition to the Jie people who invaded the Central Plains, which must be exterminated, a considerable number of Qiang, Di, Huns and some messy messes have become part of the Han country.

　　 changed from the identity of the Hu people to the Han people. It was based on the premise that the Han people became the overlord again. Whether they were sincere or imaginary and ignorant was impossible to judge.

　　The time for the Han people to become the overlord again is too short, and the time to absorb the hus is also long or short, and the methods are not moderate, only forcing those people to accept and be annexed before death.

　　 In the era when there was no clear national conception, especially not long after the Hu people just accepted the concept of nationality, their adherence to the strong is a natural means of survival.

　　 In the past few years, there have naturally been some negative conflicts in the process of integration, but on the whole it has shown a good trend. It was based on the Han army's repeated victories, and then it was that they didn't receive any obvious discrimination, and the blame was that they didn't receive much stimulation.

　　 "Do you think they will have a rebellion when they hear the news from the grassland?" Liu Yan is actually unable to make a clear judgment, but he must pay attention to this guess: "Then, your opinion is to terminate the tour and let the widow return to Chang'an?"

　　 Will setting fire to the grassland really force those "Han people" who are already peaceful? No one can give a clear answer to this. What they know is that setting fire to the grassland will cause the nomads to go crazy, and the patrol team will be besieged.

"Your Majesty, you are here." Yu Yi's origin is destined to be one of the group of people with high authority from the beginning. He once stood at the top of the'minority', and is currently one of the'minority'. Member, the angle of view of things is destined to be more than just a corner: "Your being besieged will definitely affect the whole man."

　　 It seems to be that. Liu Yan is destined to be the meeting point of many eyes. There are too many people watching his every move. Once an attack occurs, the entire country will be shaken, and it will also affect the next possible actions of other countries against Han.

"There is a siege where you are, and the country must send troops and kings." Yu Yi was talking about being besieged, not about fighting in the usual sense, he said very seriously: "Your Majesty, in the current form, you need Back to Chang'an."

　　 Out of dignity, Liu Yan is repulsive to retreat from the front line in an impending war. It will not be any different from running away sullenly.

Liu Yan wanted to think about Yu Yi’s words. Although he didn’t want to admit it, things would probably develop as Yu Yi said. He had a thought that "there is always **** wanting to harm me".

　　 The others are making eye contact. In fact, a small part of them agree with Yu Yi's suggestion that there is no need to stay here and wait for the besieged. The others have different opinions. It's just that they can't advise them all together, or even if they are kind to Liu Yan, they are also considering the country, which will inevitably become a situation of persecution by everyone.

　　 "The army in the northwest direction?" Liu Yan was silent for a while, and then asked again, "Is General Zhengbei confident of defeating it within ten days?"

　　 Li Tan did not dare to hesitate, he saluted and replied: "The minister is confident."

　　 Liu Yan nodded: "Very well, let's send troops."

　　 Everyone is making eye contact again. They can probably guess Liu Yan's mood. Even if they really want to leave, it is a prerequisite to get rid of the enemy army first.

　　 "In addition, the widow is not going back to Chang'an." Liu Yan was very thoughtful. He glanced around the crowd and said calmly: "You can't stop the tour."

　　 A bit of crisis escapes back to the lair like a frightened bird. That is not something Liu Yan can do. He is not stubborn to maintain his dignity. It is the fact that the tour has been announced to the world long ago, and the tour is halfway but terminated. It will give the world an impression that the old Liu family’s rule of the country is not as strong as expected. Open a door called Challenging the Emperor's Authority.

　　 Yu Yi burst into cold sweat on his forehead in an instant, and he finally realized that the object of allegiance was not the emperor of Chengping, but the founding king who was killed on horseback. He has new insights. The Han country today is definitely not the former Jin country. Facing a crisis has never been to avoid or passively endure it. It should be an initiative to smash the crisis.

　　 "Your Majesty, Minister...Chen..." After Yu Yi reacted, he bowed to Liu Yan in panic. It might be fear or some other reason that caused some stammering: "The minister... is guilty, shouldn't..."

Liu Yan knew that Yu Yi had already understood the seriousness. The ruler was destined not to show weakness. No weakness could be shown. Even if the troops on this side would be wiped out, it was definitely not a choice to leave. , It is related to the stability of the rule, and it is by no means simply whether a person's dynasty is shaken.

　　 Let’s be clear. Once the ruler is weak, how many people will have the idea of ​​"I can sit on that throne too"? The dynasty of one family and one surname is not stable, that is, the seeds of challenges have been planted.

If the current ruler is cruel, it is of course a just cause to pay the price to overthrow it, but it is a "just cause" to change the dynasty very rarely, and more times to change the dynasty is just something that someone or a certain group should not have. Ambition has caused the war to burn the entire land. I don’t know how many people have shed blood for someone’s ambition, and how many innocent people have lost their lives in the dynasty change after war.

Of course, it’s not that anyone must be loyal to whom, and if you can’t live, you still have to endure, but as long as there must be a ruling class in society, the dynasty or other forms of governance have only changed the way, but a few people have ignited the flames of war for their own ambitions. Except for the achievement of a few people's ambitions, who is good for it? More are actually victims.

Li Tan led the army with great pressure. His speech to the generals of the army was very clear. Their attack was not to completely annihilate the enemy army, but to complete the defeat of the enemy army in the least amount of time. .

It is not a complete idiot to be able to be a general class. They know somehow what caused such a military order, but they will inevitably be a little complicated inside. After all, if they are patient, they can really complete the battle against the enemy. The wiped out.

The commander-in-chief class naturally would not say that to the soldiers. On the contrary, they would repeatedly emphasize that the purpose of going on the expedition was to wipe out the enemy army. They encouraged the soldiers' tyranny, coupled with some spiritual encouragement, the goal of their battle this time was only In addition to the inevitable meritorious rewards, it also carries the great mission of defending the emperor.

　　 The Han army has actions here, and the coalition army will naturally get feedback from the scouts.

On the grassland, as long as you can see who you are, then the other party will definitely discover it, especially the actions of a large army, unless you have not noticed the presence of the army in advance, or you can say that you are on the other side’s eyelids anytime and anywhere. under.

　　 "We have no retreat." The dragon looked very grumpy, and roared generally: "Besides our endless ashes, it is the burning wildfire!"

　　The fire is sweeping across the grassland~lightnovelpub.net~ The place where the fire has raged is leaving behind a piece of ashes. If you think that the fire on the grassland means safety after it is extinguished, then there is absolutely no basic common sense. They will enter an environment where there is no grass. People will be covered in ashes when they move. , Even if the wind is stronger, it is full of ashes. Regardless of the source of water, if people inhale too much ashes, what else can there be besides death?

　　 Jian Jian was also a little impatient, he thought about countless possibilities, and retreat was never one of the options.

"Except for no retreat, we are still constantly encountering the impact of beasts. Thousands of warriors have fallen under the hooves of beasts." The dragons have seen the scene with their own eyes, and all kinds of animals are like crazy. Charge, anyone who blocks the way will be run over: "They don't know what death is. The trenches can't be stopped. They fill the trenches in front, and step on the mud and continue to charge. We can only burn. Enough bonfires to make them afraid of flames from rushing over."

　　 Fujian has been sending detectives to investigate another direction, which is on the Hunxie Mountain. The intelligence given by the detectives was that the Han army was also found there, but he didn't know whether it was the original garrison or the mobilization later. He wanted to suggest Long Du to break through Hunxie Mountain, but that conflicted with the original purpose, so not only could not suggest that, but also to dissuade Long Du from breaking through Hunxie Mountain.

"We were going to attack the team where the emperor of the big man is." Fu Jian, like a missionary with a firm belief, said with an expression and tone full of justice: "When I came there was the consciousness of the battle to die, let Let's complete our initial goal!"
