Chapter 196: Fame (3)

At the end of August of the 11th year of the Great Cause, when the fierce battle was in full swing under Yanmen City.

Li Po, who joined the army of Heng'an Town, led 4,000 cavalry in Heng'an Town, and swept across both sides of Cangshui in a violent wind, sweeping away the cattle, sheep and horses that the Turks had grazed here.

Tens of thousands of cattle and sheep and nearly 2,000 war horses have been harvested one after another, so that Hengan Town is satisfied.

However, it is still much worse than Li Po's expectations, and this little thing will not be able to fill the huge food gap next year.

To be honest, he didn't count how much grain in Yunnei City would be left after this winter, and next year, the whole city of Guangyun Neicheng, screaming and waiting to be fed, is very scary to think about.

This bit of cattle and sheep is probably not enough to stuff the teeth.

In fact, Li Po had long been annoyed to find that the Great Sui was almost a political system that integrated the government and the army, and let him, the town of Heng'an, join the army, and it is likely that he will have to take on the responsibility of pacifying the place in the future.

In these days, if you want the place to be quieter, you don't have to think too much, just let most people eat enough, it sounds like a simple thing, but between the eleventh and twelfth years of the great cause, there are few places that can do it.

The so-called rebels everywhere will not open warehouses and release grain so frequently at this time, as long as they release grain, it must be conscription, you don't rebel with me, and you still want to eat? Dream on.

In the words of later generations, it seriously destroyed the foundation of the Sui Dynasty's rule.

So what is the foundation, well, the foundation is the people, among the ones that have been badly destroyed.

In fact, by this time, whether Li Po wants it or not, the strategic goal has been achieved. It's time for him to return to the clouds with his army, or else. He will face the threat of the Turks in the direction of Shenwu and Mayi.

The Turks are not unaware of an attack in the rear. This battle began with the annihilation of the Turkic army under Yunnei City, and until now, even if it is over, it is a risk to act recklessly.

The Shenwu has been broken, and the situation in Ma Yi will not be too good, and there is no chance for the Hengan Zhenjun to take advantage of it.

In fact, Li Po had already discovered a weakness of the Turks at this time. Damn, hundreds of thousands of people followed Shibi Khan south, so the outside of the Saiwai must be empty to a certain extent.

At this time, if he leads his troops to the north, he will definitely have a surprising harvest, and maybe he can go around Dingxiang County and dig out the nest of the Turks.

However, that's just an idea after all, if in September. Leading the troops out of the fortress, that is purely a joke with everyone's lives.

He didn't want to come to Wei to save Zhao, not to mention that he put himself in, and saved such an emperor who didn't take other people's lives seriously.

In fact. Like many others, he was eager to hear the news of the Emperor's death.

Once the emperor, who has been tossed for more than ten years, dies, he will be missing this guy who makes people block every day. What should everyone do, it's much more straightforward.

August 26, 11th year of the Great Cause. Snowflakes fell, and Li Po led 4,000 Sui cavalry to drive cattle, sheep and horses. Embarked on the return journey in the howling cold wind.

Fortunately, when I went back, it was a tailwind, and it was not as cold as when I came.

However, Li Po was still shivering from the cold.

Every winter, he seems to be on the road, but at this time, he has no strength to complain about anything, he has stepped into the position of the actual controller of the Hengan Town Army, he needs to be an example for everyone, and he can no longer be like before, where is warm and drilled, what can be said.

Even if he froze to death, he had to straighten his waist and be a dead corpse that would not fall.

After walking for less than a day, he realized that it was too slow, and that the cattle, sheep, and horses had noticeably slowed down their march.

This is a very dangerous thing, Yunnei Horse Farm is connected to the post road, and it is not far from Shenwuke......

Whatever he wanted, he must have some kind of mysterious connection with birds such as crows and owls.

"Report ......"

The scouts sent in the direction of Shenwu have returned, bringing back very bad news.

"Report to join the army, the enemy army has more than 3,000 horsemen, and they are marching from Shenwu to Yunnei Horse Farm."

Li Po felt a toothache in the cold wind, it was really slow, it was less than half a day's journey from Yunnei Horse Farm, hurry up, and he wouldn't run into the Turks.

Of course, it depends on whether the Turks give face, and if they come wildly, they will definitely be able to block themselves to the west of the horse farm.

Moreover, even if you pass the racecourse, you will be caught up by someone on the way to Unnei Castle.

Li Po thought quickly.

More than 3,000 horsemen, not much, if you fight a battle, it is not that there is no chance of winning, but the loss will be very large, and now there are less than 4,000 soldiers of the Sui army, who have been running back and forth with him for a few days, they are already very tired, and they have to meet the enemy again, Li Po doesn't know, how many people will be left who can go back to Yunnei City?

If you don't give the enemy a chance, then you have to abandon the cattle, sheep and horses, and quickly run back to the Yunnei Horse Farm, which is a foolproof strategy, and it is also part of the previous plan, the worst part.

"Order, the whole army stops, and all the generals above the battalion captain come to me."

Not long after, a group of northerner men gathered around Li Po.

Li Po didn't have any nonsense, and he couldn't make any expression on his frozen face, "Three thousand Turks, who came from Shenwu, go faster, you will definitely be able to get to the horse farm first, even if you walk slowly, you can catch up with us, let's talk about it, what should we do?" ”

As expected, among the gossips, the most supported opinion is that they fought with the Turks, the strength is about the same, and the choice of the bulls, sheep and horses that they are reluctant to get, and the upright and rough northern heroes are obvious.

The three leading captains didn't speak, obviously, they didn't agree to be so reckless and tough with the Turks, even Li Wu and Chen Er, who were in Li Po's opinion before, belonged to those who thought about the law and went to find death, and it turned out to be the same.

This can only be said to be the butt deciding the head, and when it comes to the position of captain of the leading army, their thinking is very different from that of the battalion captain.

The remaining Bu San Lang surnamed Bu is obviously more cunning, he is different from Li Wu Chen Er, he belongs to the indigenous people of Jindi, although he is very appreciated by Li Jing, but he is different from Li Wu Chen Er, in the end, it is separated by a layer.

He was the first to speak, "Joining the army will take me and waiting, and I will fight every battle, and I think it will be the same this time......"

This is both a little unconvinced, and patting the sycophants, what Luo Quan said is called a level.

Li Wu is his own person in the end, he was dissatisfied when he heard it, he glanced at him, and said in a deep voice: "Join the army, let's come out, not to annihilate the enemy, let go of these burdens, let's go back to Yunnei City directly, if I come hard, I am not afraid of anything, but after the Turks come back, who will defend the city?" ”

This is the truth, and the battalion lieutenants must not agree, but when the lieutenants speak, it is not their turn to interject.

If there are not enough of them, there are 10,000 ways to wait for you when you go back.

The military group has always been hierarchical, and it is not impossible to resist, but you must be prepared to bear the consequences.

Li Po nodded, glanced at Bu Qun gloomily, and smiled at the corner of his mouth, "Since General Bu said it...... I really have an idea, I'm afraid you don't have enough guts. ”

Bu Qun regretted it at the time and wanted to slap himself in the mouth.

I know that this person is good at holding grudges, I heard that he is quite vicious, what kind of mouth do he have, just because his official position is higher than this person and the town general, he is a little unconvinced to be a captain of the army? It's worth the loss.

Hengan Town is already the world of others, what's the use of not being convinced, can you still use him as an outsider to run the army?

As soon as I thought about this, I regretted it, and I didn't care about anything else, so I directly beat my chest hard, and began to show loyalty, "I'm waiting for a seven-foot man, what are you afraid of?" To join the army is to look ahead. ”

This phenomenon can actually show very well that Li Po's position in the army has gradually stabilized, otherwise, such a veteran will not be easy to obey, and it is almost the same if Li Bi is replaced.

Needless to say, Li Wu and Chen Er knocked on their breastplates, "Whatever the army says, let's follow." ”

The battalion lieutenants also became excited, and the sound of tapping on the cuirass was thumping.

Morale is available, Li Po nodded with satisfaction.

No matter how much he complains that these guys have no brains, but as a leader of the troops, he actually likes this kind of refreshing guy the most.

"Okay, give the order to go down, leave a hundred people, drive the cattle and sheep back to Canghe, and the others will follow me south."

"Let all the scouts out, work hard, within a radius of five miles from the army, and kill anyone you touch."

As soon as this order was given, everyone was awe-inspiring, that is, no matter whether it was a Sui or Turkic scout, as long as they appeared within five miles of the army and were discovered, they didn't have to think about going back alive.

And, head south......

Li Wu wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't say anything, he had always been convinced by Li Po.

Li Po looked around and saw that no one was talking, waved his hand, and said, "Go back and lead the troops, we will bury those Turks tomorrow, and I have already chosen a good place for them." ”

Everyone tapped on the breastplate, trying to make themselves more high-spirited in the snowstorm, and then dispersed.

Once the military order is issued, there is no regret medicine to take, and not only the emperor can't do anything that changes the order, but this is also a forbidden area for the generals who lead the troops.

Li Po raised his head, looked at the snow that was falling heavier and heavier, and said in his heart, it is time for this snow to fall, but it is really not necessarily how effective it is.

What he didn't know was that this was the beginning of his fame, and it wouldn't be long before the name of Li Ding'an in Heng'an Town would spread all over Jindi, so that he finally came to a more advantageous position in this troubled world.

(Asking for a monthly ticket in a single chapter, sending red envelopes, can't be worth people's birthdays, alas, Ah Cao is also served, okay, the third is more presented, thank you for your support yesterday, Beixiong finally has an elder, haha, is the alliance leader still far away?)
