Chapter 1403 Cadet Scout

Ali Gu pondered for a while: "The interaction with Khotan must be strengthened, so I will send envoys over to ask them about the conditions for taking the southern route." ”

"Khotan is easy to take, but it is now under the control of the Black Khan, and if the Black Khan King moves troops, it will be difficult to get along."

Qingyi Jiegui Zhang said: "The Black Khan is now also divided into two parts, the East and the West, and they are fighting each other, the Western Khan is the descendant of Ali, and Samarkand and Bukhara are the capitals; Dong Khan is a descendant of Harun Bugra Khan, with Barasagon as the capital of governance, and Kashgar as the capital of culture and education. ”

"Their control over Khotan was not too strong in the first place, because after the Black Khan established the Heavenly Sect as the state religion, he fought a war with the Khotanese Buddha Kingdom for more than 50 years."

Now that the Song Dynasty is tempted by the golden silk Buddhism, Khotan has obviously begun to pro-Song. This also worries the Black Khan. ”

Ali Gu asked, "But we also believe in the Dharma, right?" ”

Qingyi said leisurely, "Although we also worship Buddha, we are not pro-Song. For the Black Khan King, compared with the surname of Yu Khotan, who was pro-Song and worshiped Buddha, it was a better choice than Wei Chi. ”

Ali Gu finally made up his mind: "First fight the battle against the Song Dynasty, order Du Qiao Ah Gong to guard the Lin Yi City, monitor the heart of Mu Qin, and form a ghost chapter You and the blind army of the commander go south and fight with the Song people." Nannazhi was in charge of defending the city. ”

All the generals saluted together: "Respect the king's command." ”

……

On December 20 of the sixth year of Yuanfeng, Zhao Yu received a reply from Ali Gu, which was not a text, but the head of the Song envoy.

Zhao Yu was furious and ordered Li Xian to send troops to recruit.

Su You is not arrogant, but the Great Song Dynasty is arrogant, and the material resources transported from Lanzhou to Miaochuan are endless, and the 100,000 troops concentrated in Miaochuan have been redressed as a whole.

The first batch of Bawen and Lin Xiaobi, who were dressed in felt robes, thick wool socks, and cowhide boots, were equipped with the fierce weapons and shovels of the Great Song Dynasty, shoveling snow and paving roads all the way to open the passage for the rear army.

Li Xian, Wang Hou, and Liu Shiheng led the two new armies to follow.

Zhao Yu purchased a large number of yaks in Miaochuan, more than 15,000 heads, carrying a large amount of provisions, and was secretly detained by Xibawen and Jieyao.

Li Xian had no tactics in fighting, and because he was a lieutenant official, he was often made fun of by military geniuses such as Wang Shao, Zhang Qi, and Chong Ge.

However, Su You gave Li Xianzhi a trick, which was also a six-character mantra: "Tie the hard village, fight the dumb battle".

Especially in the terrain from Miaochuan to Qingtang City, it is absolutely a magic weapon to maintain the structure of the whole army from being divided by the enemy's use of the terrain.

But the ideal is very plump, but the reality is very skinny, 30,000 people are at the mercy of the mountain road, and it is difficult to do it if you want not to be used by others.

Fortunately, there are two important nodes on this road, both of which belong to the scope of Jincheng County in the Northern Wei Dynasty, one is the town Lezhi in the south of Jincheng County, and the other is Zongge City in the north of Jincheng County.

It is very funny to say that the road from Lanzhou to Zongge City has been renovated and widened several times in the past two years, which has brought great convenience to Li Xian's march.

The first time was when Li Xian sprinkled Jinping outside Zongge City, allied with Ali Guhui, recruited the Qingtang army as the main force of the Western Route Army, and attacked Western Xia together.

That time, Li Xian carried a lot of goods, and Ali Gu took the initiative to send 130,000 troops to repair the road.

The second time was when Qingyi Jiegui Zhang returned to Qingtang with the loot, carrying a large number of cattle and sheep, and then widening it again.

Only two years have passed, and this widened road has become a talisman for Qingtang.

However, Qingyi Jiegui Zhang is a rare military talent in Qingtang, and he blindly led 50,000 people to wear sheepskin robes, ambushed in the vast mountains for five days, and let go of Lin Qibi's front army and Li Xian's middle army, and waited until the logistics army of Xibawen and Jieyaomi arrived in Lezhi City, and then suddenly launched an attack!

The Song generals who commanded the Houlu Fan army were Jia Xu and Peng Sun.

Jia Xu was Jing Sili's subordinate general when he was booby-trapped by the Ghost Chapter when Qing Yi knotted him, and Peng Sun was the one who gave Li Xian a stinky foot and praised "Tai Lieutenant's foot is so fragrant".

The Qingtang Dao Song people have already become very familiar, the former army and the Chinese army have only encountered a few scouts, and they have been taken care of casually, and the second general did not expect that Qingyi Jiegui Zhang would be so frozen, it should be that the army has been pressed in the snow valley for so long, and the fattest and weakest rear army is suddenly launched.

"Enemy attack—"

The sharp sound of the trumpet and the wolf smoke on the mountain peaks in the distance alarmed the Lezhi camp.

Almost all of them are Tibetan people, in addition to Jia Xu and Peng Sun, there are also two Tibetan generals, Lu Zun and Jieyaomi.

Qingyi Ghost Zhang is a famous general of the Qing and Tang Dynasties, since he commanded the army, he has fought against Tibet, the Uighurs, the Western Xia, and the Great Song Dynasty, almost all of them are victories, and the worst is a draw.

The Tubo people are a noble race, and Lu Zun and Jieyaomi were dumbfounded when they heard that it was Qingyi Jiejie Ghost Zhang and Blind Zheng who were attacking, and they were a little afraid of fighting.

On the contrary, Jia Xu and Peng Sun are a little bold, Li Xian's grandmother's title comes from his mantra, but it does not mean that he is very kind, the military discipline of the Great Song Dynasty has always been very cruel, if the rear army loses its baggage, it will most likely be beheaded.

Peng Sun pulled out his sword: "What are you afraid of!" If they want to avoid the eyes and ears of the captain, they can only be foot soldiers, and they have been buried in the snow for a few days, and we still have city walls, what are we afraid of?! ”

That being said, the voice was trembling.

Jia Xu's face turned pale: "Back then, I couldn't follow Si Lilangjun and the underground with Brother Yuan Kai, which was Jia Xu's lifelong hatred. Today, when I encounter this thief again, I can only fight to the death! ”

At this moment, the tent was suddenly opened, and a young soldier serving in the new army walked in and stood up to the four of them: "Under the tent of Liu Tongjun of the Dingguo Army, the cavalry guards Li Chunyuan, report!" ”

Jia Xu was overjoyed: "How many people are here?" Why didn't you go with the Chinese army? ”

Li Chunyuan is another upright: "Report to the commander, and accept Liu Xiang's order to lead the army, saying that the progress of the army is too smooth and it is necessary to beware of fraud, so he asked his subordinates to bring a company to communicate news between the Chinese army and the rear army." ”

"After the Qingyi Ghost Chapter was launched, the road was blocked, and the lowly position could not go to the Chinese army to resume his life, so he had to go south, and gathered half of his brothers along the way to meet with the commander."

"Now there is half a company in the hands of the subordinates, fifty-three people, please command the envoy to assign combat tasks!"

Peng Sun was disappointed: "Fifty-three people...... It's not a big deal......"

Jia Xu was overjoyed: "How many of you graduated from the Royal Military Academy?" ”

Li Chunyuan maintained a upright posture: "Report to the commander!" We have five crash course graduates! There are nine students in the first phase! Sixteen students in the second phase! ”

Jia Xu felt incredulous: "How is it possible? This is...... Thirty people? Even if all of them have just graduated, at least they can bring 10,000 people! Not to mention the crash course......"

Li Chunyuan said: "This is Liu Xiangling's arrangement, we only know how to resolutely carry out the order!" ”

Jia Xu slapped his thigh: "Okay!" Without further ado, you go down immediately and take over, we have 10,000 men, we have supplies for weapons, and there is a shortage of people who know how to command! As long as he holds on for a few days, Taiwei will come back from Brother Zong. With you here, this battle can be fought! ”

Li Chunyuan suddenly hit his left hand on the chest: "I will not disgrace my life!" Then subordinates, please use the Great Army Talisman! ”

Jia Xu bowed his hand to Peng Sun: "Commander Peng? ”

Peng Sun's face turned pale: "This ......"

Jia Xu said: "The matter is urgent, Lao Peng, it can't be delayed." If the babies of the Royal Military Academy can't carry it, can you and I carry it? ”

Peng Sun shook his hand and handed the tiger talisman arrow to Li Chunyuan: "What's that...... Brother...... The lives of several old brothers are in your hands......"

Li Chunyuan's face was expressionless: "Please rest assured that if we don't die, we will have an army capable of fighting!" ”

After saying that, he went out of the tent, followed by a sharp whistle outside the tent.

Followed by the sound of running and assembly, the soldiers of the new army have taken advantage of this time to make a city defense map of Lezhi City, as well as military deployment and baggage reserves.

Li Chunyuan invited out the Tiger Talisman Arrow and began to take over the army, and soon set up a leader in accordance with the regulations of the six divisions of the new army shogunate, divided 10,000 people into a team of 500 people, led by 20 soldiers respectively, and established the command system in a blink of an eye.

Then there is the assignment of the supplies, the laying of mines, sandbags, and the pulling of barbed wire......

The soldiers of the New Army were also issued with an extra round of bullets and hand-thrown thunderbolts for the campaign.

In just two hours, the military affairs of Lezhi City became as orderly as an arm.

Because Qingyi's ghost chapter needed to be hidden, there was no cavalry, so the Song people grabbed the crucial half-day arrangement time.
