Chapter 558: The first strike is the strongest

I didn't expect this Zhang Yan to really become Zhu Wen's dog, Zhu Youwen is just a righteous son, he is so obedient. ”

Knowing that Zhang Yan asked his eldest son Zhang Jizuo to attack Shaanzhou with 15,000 foot cavalry, Chang Xingru looked contemptuous.

If this fifteen-thousand-step cavalry was the Xuanwu army, he might still be afraid of one or two.

Heyang's army, forget it, the two sides have not fought, they both know the roots.

"Father, the child is willing to lead the army." Chang Wei on the side asked for battle. TV debut

"You?" Chang Xingru looked at this son and shook his head, "Wei'er, you can't do it, wait until you sharpen it for a few more years."

General Li, have you sent anything from the imperial court? ”

Li Fan hugged his fists and said, "The defense envoy has been sent back." There were a lot of weapons, armor, and the earth-shattering thunder that the defense envoy said, but there were also 2,000 imperial troops with him! ”

"Two thousand imperial troops?" Chang Xingru looked at Chang Wei and asked the other party what the situation was.

Chang Wei hurriedly replied, "Back to my father, the imperial court said that it was afraid that the soldiers in Shaanzhou would not use the earth-shaking thunder, so they sent a thousand people to guide us. As for the other thousand, it was a cavalry of the Right Tiance Army. ”

Speaking of the back, Chang Wei's voice became lower and lower, obviously a little weak.

"Defense envoy, this court obviously doesn't believe us...

Before Li Fan's words fell, he was interrupted by Chang Wei raising his hand, "It doesn't matter, with the 1,000 cavalry of the forbidden army of the imperial court, we are equivalent to 4,000 cavalry."

Ben suddenly had a bold idea. ”

The staff next to him couldn't help but ask, "Does the defense envoy want to use these 4,000 cavalry to catch the Heyang soldiers by surprise?" ”

"Naturally. Four thousand cavalry, even if Zhang Yan's old guy has more cavalry than this, I don't believe that he is willing to send all the cavalry.

With 4,000 cavalry, wouldn't it be a waste if you don't use it well. Chang Xingru rubbed his hands, if he wasn't a defensive envoy, he would have wanted to go out in person.

"If you really hurt Heyang Bing, will it completely anger Zhang Yan?" The people below were worried.

"Afraid of what? The soldiers will block, the water will cover the earth, and the Heyang soldiers are just the soldiers, I really thought that I was afraid that they would not succeed. If you can capture Zhang Jizuo, a little rabbit cub, what do you think Zhang Yan's reaction will be? Chang Xingru couldn't help laughing.

。。。。。。

On the west bank of the water, 4,000 cavalry were hiding in the woods.

Lushui originates from Lushan, so it is called Lushui.

The water flows into the Yellow River from more than ten miles east of the city of Shaanzhou, so if the army of Heyang wants to attack Shaanzhou, it must cross the water.

Before that, Lushui was the dividing line between Shaanzhou and Heyang.

Looking at the not far away not wide Lushui, Li Yi rode his horse and pointed at Lushui, "General Chang, I thought that we could ambush the Heyang army in this Lushui, and when they crossed the river more than halfway, we attacked halfway through, and we thought that we could achieve a lot of results." ”

Chang Xingyong smiled, "What Li General said makes sense, then we will ambush the Heyang army in this Lushui." ”

Chang Xingyong is Chang Xingru's younger brother, but the military command level is not very good, but the victory lies in loyalty, so Chang Xingru let him master 3,000 Shaanzhou cavalry.

Don't look at Li Yi as just a general, but as the commander of a thousand cavalry sent by the imperial court to reinforce Shaanzhou, Chang Xingyong did not dare to slack off.

Seeing the 1,000 cavalry of the Right Tiance Army, even Chang Xingyong, who commanded 3,000 Shaanzhou cavalry, was envious, the war horse was too good, and the weapons and armor.

Of course, in order to hide their identities, these thousand cavalry did not wear ornaments related to the Right Tiance Army, and even the weapons and armor were a little different from other cavalry of the Right Tiance Army.

Even if the Heyang army found out that something was wrong, they would not have thought that there were a thousand forbidden army cavalry hidden in the cavalry of Shaanzhou.

However, a closer look can still reveal the problem, that is, a quarter of the cavalry of the Thousand Right Tiance Army are non-Tang faces.

The Right Tiance Army, the Right Shence Army, and the army under the command of the Anxi Dadu Hufu all have such a situation, and some of the troops under their command are nomads from Hexi and other places.

For example, the Tibetans, the Wenmo, the Uighurs, the Dangxiang, and the Qiang.

The tolerance of the Tang Dynasty is originally very good, so there is no discrimination against these foreign soldiers, as long as they submit to the Tang Dynasty, they are the people of the Tang Dynasty.

"Zhu Du, why hasn't the scout sent to find out the news come back yet?" Chang Xingyong asked Zhu Jiandao, who had been promoted to general next to him.

"General Hui, you may have been delayed on the way." Zhu Jian replied.

Li Yi was not in a hurry, but chatted with Chang Wei who was accompanying him, "Chang Wei, right?" Ben will meet your brother Chang Hu, which is very good, and I believe that it will be no problem to be promoted to lieutenant in two years. ”

Chang Wei was a little excited, "Dare to ask Li General, do you know where my brother is currently working?" ”

"Before Ben was transferred back, he was in Lanzhou, and now he may still be in Lanzhou. But you still have to work hard to catch up with your brother, and you will see that you are a little thin and weak. ”

Chang Wei smiled awkwardly, "Thank you Li for mentioning it." ”

"It's nothing, it's all martial arts. It's just that the general is in Xingyuanjin's martial arts, and he joined the army a few years earlier than you, so don't lose the face of martial arts when you fight. Li Yi reminded.

When Zhu Jian and Ling Qing, who were not far away, heard this conversation, they were a little envious, and they were even more curious about martial arts in their hearts.

According to the rewards of the previous polo match, the two of them could enter the martial arts, but due to the military situation in Shaanzhou, it was delayed. It is estimated that only after the war in Shaanzhou is over, can they enter the martial arts school, or mix up their qualifications.

I didn't see that Li Yi and Chang Wei didn't know each other, but because they both learned martial arts, they had a common topic.

The crowd waited for the scouts who had come to inquire about the news in the evening.

I saw that the scout fast horse came to Chang Xingyong, quickly turned over and dismounted and knelt down on one knee in front of him to report the military situation, "Report, General Qiqi, early yesterday morning, the 15,000 troops of Heyang left Tianchi County (that is, Mianchi), and they had already passed Bawang Mountain at noon. ”

"Fifteen thousand people are here?" Chang Xingyong asked.

"There is no sign of the army staying behind in Michi, and there are a thousand cavalry in front of the Heyang army, so I don't dare to get too close."

"How far is the Heyang army from Lushui?"

"About half an hour's journey."

"Let's go down!" Chang Xingyong beckoned, and after the scout retreated, he said to Li Yi, "Li General, I didn't expect this Heyang army to march so slowly. Looking at the sky, the Heyang army may not cross the river today, and it is very likely to find a place to camp on the east bank of the river. ”

Li Yi couldn't help frowning, he didn't expect that the Heyang army would be so slow.

Chang Xingyong is indeed right about this, as if it is too late today. Although the water is not deep, and the cavalry is no problem to cross, but the infantry is a little troublesome, and it is definitely necessary to build a raft, and it is unlikely that the river will be crossed today.

"General Chang, is there any suitable place around here for a suitable way to bypass the water to the back of the Heyang army camp without being discovered by the Heyang army?"

"Li Du plans to attack the enemy camp at night?"

Li Yi nodded.

"Yes, yes, you can go around quietly from the upstream!"
