Chapter 2118 Breaking Yanshan Mountain and Killing Tuoba Gui (Part 2)

Chapter 2116: Breaking Yanshan Mountain and beheading Tuoba Gui (Part 2)

Shanshituo was deliberately looking for trouble. In other words, the imperial party headed by Shanshituo was extremely dissatisfied with both Tuoba Tao and the Tuoba family.

The last four strongholds on Yanshan Road are related to the lifeblood of 200,000 Qing troops, but what is the result? All three were lost in the hands of the Tuoba family.

 Tuoba Shi was okay. Although he lost the first battalion, he also died in battle to apologize.

But what about this guy Tuoba Tao? Two of the four camps were lost in his hands. It was simply shameless to show such incompetence but still have the nerve to point out the country.

Shanshituo has an upright temperament and will just say something if he doesn't understand. This just hit Tuoba Tao's sore spot.

Seeing that the two sides were getting more and more angry, and there was even a faint tendency to start a fight, Tuoba Gui on the other side finally spoke.

 “That’s enough, shut up.”

Tuoba Gui's angry shout made both sides, who were originally at war with each other, suddenly become silent and extinguished.

After all, Tuoba Gui was the commander-in-chief, and he also contributed greatly to the Manchu Qing Dynasty. No matter how useless the children of the Tuoba family were, his contribution to the Qing Dynasty was unquestionable, so even the mountain lion camel did not dare to openly contradict Tuoba Gui. Gui.

 After the meeting, Tuoba Gui left Tuoba Tao alone.

Looking at the expressionless Tuoba Gui, Tuoba Gui said with a face of shame: "Grandpa, my grandson has let you down."

Tuoba Gui originally wanted to scold Tuoba Tao again, but when he saw his eldest grandson showing such an expression as if he was serving his little daughter, he immediately gave up his plan to continue beating his grandson. After all, he had already scolded him before. A rebuke is likely to undermine his self-confidence and completely knock him out of the water.

“Well, I can’t blame you entirely for this defeat. Even if I command it myself, I may not be able to do better than you.”

Tuoba Gui touched Tuoba Tao's head and comforted his grandson with a kind expression. This also made Tuoba Tao burst into tears. He hugged his grandfather and cried aggrievedly. This was also Tuoba Tao's first time. Showing such a weak posture.

Not long ago, he was a hero promoted by the Qing Emperor, but he became a street rat because of a defeat. People who once praised him are now despising him. Tuoba Tao was stunned by his sudden change of face.

 But what can he do? Facing Wei Qing, he had performed exceptionally well, but Wei Qing was still pushing him to the ground and blasting him. The defeat was not what he wanted.

Tuoba Tao is the most typical genius from an aristocratic family. He was well protected by his family and his grandfather. He has never experienced any setbacks or blows. Therefore, he is somewhat arrogant and arrogant, and even regards the world's heroes as nothing. As a result, he becomes complacent after achieving some achievements, and then He was beaten so severely by the serious Wei Qing that he doubted his life.

After crying for a while, Tuoba Tao vented most of his grievances, and then he recovered. He blushed and wiped away the tears on his face, feeling ashamed and annoyed in his heart.

What on earth did he do to cry like this in front of grandpa?

Tuoba Tao secretly took a look at his grandfather's face and saw that there was nothing strange about him, and then Tuoba Tao felt slightly relieved.

After talking to his grandson for a while, Tuoba Gui asked: "Tao'er, do you think grandpa can hold on to this last camp before His Royal Highness captures Lulong?"

There was a trace of embarrassment on Tuoba Tao's face, but Tuoba Gui smiled and said: "Just tell the truth. Grandpa is already this old, how can he still be afraid of death?"

“Grandpa, it’s not that your grandson’s ambition will destroy his own prestige. Your Majesty originally gave grandpa a period of one month to defend Yanshan, but now he has changed it to until His Highness the Crown Prince captures Lulong. What does it mean that he changed his order day and night?”

A solemn look appeared on Tuoba Tao's face: "This shows that Your Majesty is not sure. Therefore, even if Grandpa you can hold Yanshan for a month, if the prince cannot capture Lulong by then, what's the point of fighting to the death in Yanshan, Grandpa?"

Besides, Sun'er doesn't think our army can hold on for a month. "

Hearing this, Tuoba Gui suddenly looked serious and asked, "What do you mean by this?"

"Grandpa..." In the next hour, Tuoba Tao explained his point of view to his grandfather from various aspects such as equipment, morale, generals, and the overall situation. That is, the Yanshan Defense Line is a mess. Who will come? Who dies.

“Why didn’t your Majesty come to Yanshan in person? Our army was clearly in a life-or-death situation, and your Majesty’s personal visit to Yanshan would be a greater encouragement to the army, but he only sent the prince to boost the morale of the army? Why is this?

Because your majesty knows how powerful the Qin army is, he personally guards Yanshan, which is not much different from your grandpa guarding Yanshan.

Grandpa, if you can't hold on, he will definitely not be able to hold on either, so I've given you this doomed mission to fail. "

After finishing speaking, Tuoba Tao looked at his grandfather carefully. Although his words were from the bottom of his heart, they were indeed treasonous and contrary to the way of a minister.

If this happened in the past, Tuoba Gui would definitely be furious and even beat his eldest grandson violently to let him know what he can and cannot say. However, this time his reaction was not so intense, and instead he showed a pensive look. look.

Seeing this, Tuoba Tao secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Grandpa was not as foolish and loyal as he appeared.

I have to say that Tuoba Tao is really a genius. Tuoba Gui also thought about what he analyzed, but he just couldn't figure it out clearly. After his grandson's suggestion, Tuoba Gui felt suddenly enlightened.

After pondering for a long time, Tuoba Gui raised his head, looked at his grandson, and said seriously: "Tao'er, can the fourth battalion really not be able to defend it?"

 “It’s difficult.” Tuoba Tao said with a bitter smile.

"well."

Tuoba Gui sighed and said, "That's all. Since Your Majesty has calculated that I am unjust, don't blame me for being unfaithful."

Originally Tuobagui didn't want to come to this point, but now for the sake of his family and his grandson, he had to cooperate with Aguda.

Tuoba Tao showed disbelief: "Grandpa, do you want to vote for Qin?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Tuoba Gui slapped him in the face and said angrily: "Asshole, what are you talking about? Is this the kind of person grandpa is in your heart?"

Anyone in the Tuoba family can vote to Qin, but Tuoba Gui cannot vote to Qin. He is the head of the family. If he votes to Qin, the Tuoba family will immediately be exterminated by the Manchus.

Tuoba Tao rubbed his red and swollen handsome face and said aggrievedly: "But you said this yourself."

"snort."

Tuoba Gui snorted coldly and explained: "Grandpa is not going to surrender to the Qin Dynasty, but to arrange a way out for my Tuoba family. A big thing will happen next, and the situation in the Qing Dynasty will be very chaotic." , if my Tuoba family hadn’t made preparations early, it would have been very likely that we would be wiped out.

Tao'er, my grandfather wrote a suicide note and ordered you to be the patriarch of my Tuoba family. From now on, the Tuoba family will be handed over to you.

  Remember, no matter who or what the situation is that forces you, I, the Tuoba family, will never surrender the military power. "

Seeing his grandpa explaining the funeral arrangements, Tuoba Tao had a question mark on his face, what is this all about?

Based on Tuoba Tao's understanding of his grandfather, he knew that he must be hiding something from him, so he asked what he was hiding from him, but no matter how Tuoba Tao asked, Tuoba Gui would not tell him, and only said, "You will know then." '.

 The next day, Tuoba Gui dismissed Tuoba Tao from his post on the grounds of defeat, and after beating him fifty times, he was directly sent back to the rear as a groom.

This punishment shocked the senior officials of the Qing army, and they all admired Tuoba Gui's selflessness. Little did they know that this was just Tuoba Gui's way of protecting his grandson.
