Chapter 1286 is worthy of being a famous general

"Hurry, hurry, throw away all the excess supplies and march at full speed."

"What are you doing? In addition to bags of dry food, water bladders and weapons, ...... were thrown away"

"Throw away useless jars and jars......"

Under the supervision and orders of officers at all levels, Li Jiajun quickly went into battle lightly, all of them got on their horses, and turned around and headed north in a rapid marching posture.

No matter which direction Yelu Hugo was in, Yang Lie had already determined clearly that the large group of Khitans who were backed by Youzhou City had exposed fatal flaws.

That is to say, the Khitan people in the north moved too fast, and the Khitan people in the east and west moved from about 20 li wide to 50 li.

The distance of fifty miles was enough for Yang Lie's subordinates to penetrate and carry out a sudden attack.

Don't look at Yang Lie, who has already entered the Great Plain of Youji, Li Zhongyi and him have always had secret correspondence, and the carrier of communication is carrier pigeons.

Liu Dexian, Hou of Qinghe County, was in the army, and he didn't know how to march and fight at all, but he was very proficient in raising pigeons, which was enough.

In Li Zhongyi's Chinese army, there are more than a dozen tall military flags, and pigeon cages are tied to the flagpoles. The pigeon's ability to recognize its home is extraordinary, it flies from hundreds of miles away, and can return to the basket very accurately.

The letters with Yang Lie are all secret documents with encryption, and even if they are intercepted by the Khitans, they don't know the true content of the letters.

Three hours ago, Yelu Aman received the enemy information from the sentinels, and the southern barbarians poured their nests and set out west.

According to Yelu Hugo's prior order, the southern barbarian moved, and Yelu Aman also moved. Therefore, Yelu Aman led 100,000 soldiers and horses of his headquarters, and also moved to the west, so as to maintain a posture of encirclement against the troops of the southern barbarians.

In the silent night sky, it was pitch black, and I couldn't see my fingers.

Li Zhongyi led the main force of 180,000 and finally arrived at Yangyugou, where Yelu'aman's army camped tonight.

Since he had arrived at the agreed place, Li Zhongyi was not in a hurry to launch a night attack on the Khitans, but called Liu Dexian, Hou of Qinghe County, and asked him in a low voice: "The carrier pigeon will not recognize the wrong cage at night, right?" ”

Liu Dexian explained in a low voice: "Back to the Lord, the pigeons raised by the subordinates, no matter day or night, must recognize the cage." ”

Li Zhongyi nodded, wrote a letter with a codebook in front of Liu Dexian, and copied ten copies, which were tied to the legs of ten carrier pigeons.

There is no way, on the ground in Youzhou, there are not many eagles and eagles, the natural enemies of pigeons, and it is impossible for Li Zhongyi to release only one carrier pigeon.

After so many years of prevention and treatment, night blindness has been completely eradicated in the Li family's army. However, as far as Li Zhongyi knows, a large proportion of the Khitan tribal army still suffers from night blindness.

With the advantage of not having night blindness, Li Zhongyi had long planned to launch a night raid, but the specific plan of action still needed to be agreed with Yang Lie, who was not too far away.

At this moment, the camp of the Khitan people is brightly lit, and many people are sitting around the bonfire, drinking while roasting meat.

Li Zhongyi rode silently on the horse, and through the monocular in his hand, he could almost see the oil stains dripping from the barbecue.

The Khitans were really careless, and they didn't have much vigilance other than sending out sporadic secret sentinels.

Heaven forbid, the soldiers of the special operations battalion are the night combat elites that Li Zhongyi has painstakingly trained, and they have spent most of the night clearing out the secret outposts lurking around the enemy camp one by one.

This paved the way for the night attack of the entire army!

When Li Zhongyi returned to the temporary camping place of the large army in the dark, Liu Dexian had been waiting for him for a long time.

Li Zhongyi took the secret letter, and after translating it with a code book, he immediately knew where Yang Lie was now.

Just when Li Zhongyi was about to annihilate the enemy in front of him while the iron was hot, he suddenly reprimanded and reported that a large number of Khitans came from the west.

Li Zhongyi understood as soon as he heard it, it must be Yelu Xiuge who sensed that something was wrong and hurried over at full speed to join Yelu Aman's troops.

"Alas, Brother Yelu Xiu really deserves to be the number one general of the Khitans!" Li Zhongyi exhaled a long breath, the good night attack plan turned into waste paper in the blink of an eye, how could he not regret it?

The plan did not change quickly, and the old revolution met with new problems!

Li Zhongyi has never been a fateful character, and Yang Lie's department, which is lurking in the dark, should not have been exposed to the front of Yelu Huge, and there is still something to be done!

In the firelight, after Yelu Hugo and Yelu Aman joined forces, they immediately noticed that something was wrong.

Yelu Aman didn't drink much, he actually only drank a small half sac of spirits, and his mind was still clear.

"Regent, nothing else, except that the sentries seem to have gone a little farther away, and they haven't seen a return for two hours."

"What? It's been more than two hours and there's no sentry to report back? Jeruxiu's round eyes widened and he glared angrily.

Yelu Aman lowered his head a little weakly, and didn't dare to look at Brother Yelu Xiu, Brother Yelu Xiu's nose was almost crooked, and he shouted: "How can you turn a blind eye to such a big thing? In case, it's the Southern Barbarians who secretly do it, and there is a surprise attack, hehe, I'm afraid you're going to be a prisoner! ”

Brother Yelu Xiu's words are not wrong at all, if he hadn't noticed Li Zhongyi's strangeness and rushed over to join him in time, the soldiers and horses of Yelu Aman's department would have been more than lucky!

"Send all the sentinels at once, and carry out the necessary search along a radius of fifty miles." Yelu Hugo ordered on the spot, forcing Yelu Aman to scatter all the sentry agents.

Soon after the sentinel was released, Li Zhongyi's army was not a small number, and it was immediately discovered by the Khitans.

When the police message was transmitted back to the camp, Yelu Aman suddenly broke out in a cold sweat and knelt down in front of Brother Hugh with a happy heart.

Yelu Xiuge glanced at Yelu Aman, who was most of the shorter, and he also broke out in a cold sweat, if he came a few hours later, the 100,000 soldiers and horses of the entire northern army would disappear.

After dawn, all the truth was revealed, and the camp of the Li family army was completely exposed under the noses of the Khitans.

Yelu Huge, who was standing on the wall, only took a general look and knew one thing: the main force of the Li family's army was opposite.

Since the army met halfway, Yelu Hugo simply issued a military order, so that the Khitans, who were originally on the right flank, hurriedly moved closer to the large army.

In this way, the Khitans recovered to a superior strength of 300,000 troops, while the Li family army only had 180,000.

The two armies of Han and Qi confronted each other at Aoshanzhuang north of Liangxiang, thus officially opening the prelude to the largest strategic decisive battle between the Han army and the Tartars since the late Tang Dynasty.

"Your lord, there is a letter from the capital." Just when Li Zhongyi was in the big tent of the General Staff Department and looked carefully at the sand table, the news that Li Dahe was seriously ill reached his ears.

ps: There is more tonight, ask for a monthly pass!
