Chapter 233: Surprise Attack Initiated

Even if Guo Xi was unwilling to let Yang Qing take this risk, deep down he still had to admit that Yang Qing's move was indeed beautiful. The strength of 170,000 troops is close to the limit of the Great Food Alliance, and now that the enemy has stuffed 170,000 troops into Talas, the rear will inevitably be empty. Guo Xi could almost conclude now that even if it was Tuozhi City, which was the rear of the Great Cannibal People, it was impossible for the garrison to exceed 1,000, and as long as the whereabouts were well hidden, the chances of the 500 Jianyu Guard cavalry succeeding were quite high. The question is, once there is a big disturbance in Tuozhi City, the big cannibals will definitely carry out a crazy encirclement and suppression of these five hundred people, will Yang Qing be able to retreat? Talas was almost stuck on the main road that could not be opened, Yang Qing could go around the back of the enemy along the small mountain road he had walked a few days ago, but once he was alarmed, he would never be able to return the way he came, unless......

"Ziyin, I'm not against your proposal, but the matter of harassing behind enemy lines can be handed over to others to lead the team, and you don't have to do it yourself, right?" Guo Xi believes that if you want to keep Yang Qing safe, and it is not a pity to make this wonderful move, the only way is not to let him lead the team.

"Hmm...... Heel's words are right. Gao Xianzhi instantly remembered Yang Qing's family background, and felt that Guo Xi's proposal was very safe, "Ziyin, it's better for you to stay." ”

"Gao Gong, Xilie, Yang Qingxin has received the good intentions of the two of you." Yang Qing was calm as usual, "But this sneak attack on Tuozhi City will inevitably require the use of firearms." Who is more familiar with this than me? Besides, I'm the left general of Jian Yuwei after all. Please make it two! ”

"Then I'll go!" Guo Xi's face sank, "You don't think I'm worse than you, do you?" ”

Yang Qing smiled: "Xilie, you are the main general, and you have to personally command the back road of the big cannibal here, you won't rest assured that others will do it for you, right?" ”

Although Yang Qing was laughing, the people in the entire handsome tent could see his persistence.

Gao Xianzhi still had to be persuaded, and Yang Qing had already intercepted the conversation: "Gao Gong, I am a soldier, a soldier of the Tang Dynasty." ”

"Okay." After a moment of silence, Gao Xianzhi nodded decisively, and if he didn't agree, it would be an insult to Yang Qing, "Let's sum it up." ”

"Walk through the path and go around to the south of Whitewater......"

"Gao Gong, the last general thinks that he can't go south of Baishui City." Yang Qing unceremoniously interrupted Gao Xianzhi's deployment, "Baishui City is now also a supply ground for the Great Food Alliance, even if there are not many defenders, the scout cavalry must be indispensable, in case the traces of the line are revealed, even if Tuozhi City can succeed, the five hundred brothers will also cut off the way to return." The last general is never willing to achieve personal feats with his bones, as long as there is a glimmer of possibility, I will take my brothers home! ”

Gao Xianzhi stared at Yang Qing for a long time, and nodded heavily: "Okay, tell me what you think!" ”

"When I made a detour to Qianquan Mountain before, I paid attention to the mountain path, although it was difficult and difficult, it was not a dead end. Moreover, the last general carefully interrogated Hu Shang Ayiji, and there was indeed an intermittent mountain road leading to the direction of Tuozhi City. This expedition is a sneak attack, and the longer you can hide it, the better. I want to touch it all the way to the bottom of the city and then make a sudden attack, and after I succeed, I will quickly return along the avenue, and I will not give the enemy army time to react! As long as you cooperate with the proportions of Gao Gong's side, maybe you can catch up with Xilie when he breaks the city! ”

"Good! It's a bold one, but it's also entirely doable. Gao Gong, do it! Duan Xiushi was in high spirits and eager to try after listening.

Guo Xi looked at Yang Qing in amazement, this kid is really mature!

Gao Xian Zhihuo's long body stood up, and after pacing a few steps hurriedly, he stared at Yang Qing's eyes and asked, "How much time do you need?" ”

Yang Qing quickly calculated in his heart: "If you take two riders, it is enough to sneak for the past five days, and you can gallop back, and it only takes three days to travel day and night......"

"Well, it's five days! When to leave? ”

Yang Qing took a long breath: "The last general wants to ...... Overnight departure. ”

"The soldiers are noble and fast, and Ziyin has the talent of a general." Gao Xianzhi patted Yang Qing's shoulder with satisfaction, "The generals listen to the order!" ”

Guo Xi and Yang Qing quickly selected five hundred elite Jianyuwei, set off overnight, and made a surprise attack on Tuozhi City; Once all the reinforcements arrived, he ordered the Qarlu army to attack the city alone and stalemate with the enemy; At that time, the soldiers and horses of the four towns must distance themselves from the Qarlu Department and line up on both wings to be on guard; From tomorrow, the four towns will take turns to attack the city in the front until the enemy's reinforcements arrive; ordered the troops of Bakhan to retreat to the east bank with grain and grass and baggage; The rest of Jian Yuwei was transferred to the upper reaches of the east coast to standby! ”

"Yes!"

Walking out of the handsome tent, a cool breeze hit him, blowing people's spirits.

"Is five hundred rides really enough?" Now that the military order has been issued, Guo Xi will never be a mother-in-law anymore, and the only thing that cannot be relieved is the safety of his brother.

"It should be enough." Yang Qing smiled lightly, "However, you have to really care and help me take good care of it, this is unpredictable, with quick hands and flexible brains, the chances of survival should be greater." ”

"Hmm." Guo Xi knew that this was the truth, and he didn't have to say some useless false comfort, "Fortunately, the Holy Lord has approved our proposal to expand since the beginning of the spring, if it is only the previous establishment of 3,600 people, it is really difficult to pick out 500 good players." ”

"You don't have to transfer all the officers, but ordinary soldiers are the best. You know, my prestige is not as high as yours, and I have more officers with me, so I'm afraid I won't be able to take advantage of it. Yang Qing had a smile on his face, not looking like he was going to fight for his life at all.

Guo Xi understood, Yang Qing was afraid that there would be too many officers to take away, and if he didn't come back, Jian Yuwei would definitely be seriously injured.

"Okay, it's up to you. Hey, seriously, why don't you bring my personal guards with you, after all, ......"

"Don't talk nonsense, my guards are no worse than yours. Besides, your bullshit idea is neither reasonable nor reasonable, let alone you and me, you ask Li Yang, does he agree? ”

"Forget it, kindness is treated as a donkey's liver and lungs. Come to think of it, what else is there to explain? ”

"By the way, I have to take Ye Guan away."

"If you don't want me, I won't, Ye Guan is riding Cao, with him, I'm half relieved."

Seeing that he was about to arrive at the station, Guo Xi smacked at Yang Qingnunu: "I'll go and ask Yeguan Sima Lin to prepare, you go back and clean up first, and find me in half an hour." ”

Yang Qing laughed: "Let me write a suicide note?" Not so much not not to ......"

Guo Xi was so embarrassed that he died, why did he have no heart or lungs. If you don't want to write it, forget it, you have to say it and be happy with yourself?

"Get out!"

Zhang Nan thought about it again and again, but still felt relieved: "Childe, let's call the eldest brother back, his mental and martial arts are only higher than mine, not low......"

"Oh, okay, okay, let's go secretly, set fire and run, there's no danger, understand?" Yang Qing was very impatient.

How did a surprise attack on the enemy become a sneak arson? Zhang Nan couldn't cry or laugh: "This time I really went to play with my life, and my subordinates were afraid that one person would not be able to take care of it, in case there was any negligence......"

"No way!" Yang Qing was a little serious, "Shang Han has to pay close attention to that 'lack of strength', who dares to guarantee that cold-blooded boy will not play tricks?" That's the key to our victory! Besides, didn't Yiqing go with him? Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, don't be verbose! If you nag me again, I won't even bring you! ”

Sima Chuan heard it strangely: "No strength? What's that? ”

Zhang Nan couldn't help laughing and explained in a low voice: "It's the new Ye Hu of the Gelulu Department, called 'Mouluo Qili', and the son always said that people have no strength. ”

On the third watch, the carefully selected five hundred Jianyu guard cavalry, each with two horses, quietly disappeared into the night under the leadership of Yang Qing and Ye Guan.

In the city of Talas, Ziyad gathered all the high-ranking generals and began to lay out a new battle plan.

"The siege momentum of the Anxi army is very fierce, but I hope you can calm down and hold on for another two to three days, which is the time for us to counterattack and raise our eyebrows! In order to alleviate the frontal pressure, Muhammad and Abdullah each sent 1,000 light cavalry to attack the flank and rear flank of the Tang army along the west bank of the Talas River. ”

"Yes!"

"General Arhan, the soldiers of the Shi Kingdom have suffered huge casualties in the past few days, from tomorrow, please ask your department to take over the city defense and take turns with General Bazar, is there a problem?"

"No problem!"

Al Khan bowed down and replied respectfully, but in his heart he greeted the whole family of Ziyad. Knowing that this is a big cannibal to protect his own strength, but his strength is not good, and he has nowhere to complain. Besides, even Talaridan has almost exhausted his old book, and the head snake of the land has not spoken, let alone his turn.

Qi Yade also understood the truth of slapping a sweet date, and he couldn't just ask others to work and enjoy the coolness by himself, so he continued to turn his head and ordered: "Tomorrow, the north and south wings will continue to organize an assault and curb the other party's unscrupulous siege!" ”

"Yes!"

"Wingur, double the number of scouts between Whitewater City and Talas, and keep a close eye on the movements of the Anxi army! Whitewater City has become an important supply ground for our army, let Said take 5,000 men to retreat 30 miles west to prevent anything from happening in Whitewater City! ”

"Yes!"

Ziyad closed his eyes and thought for a moment, confirming that this arrangement should be fine, enough to support until reinforcements arrived.

When the generals were leaving, Qi Yade suddenly remembered something:

"By the way, pay more attention tomorrow and look at the movement of the Tang Army, today their main attack seems to have changed a group of people. Pay special attention to the location of the Qarluq department! ”

The stakes were very high, Yang Qing didn't dare to slack off at all, and asked Ye Guan to deliberately pick out more than a dozen clever ones, wear strange clothes indiscriminately, and pretend to be Hu Shang to explore the way in the previous mile in person. The rest of the people were led by Yang Qing himself, sneaking around like thieves, all the war horses were covered with chews, and the straw mats were wrapped with the hooves, otherwise the movement seemed a bit big - a few years ago, at Yang Qing's suggestion, all the war horses of Jian Yuwei were nailed with horseshoes, and now they have begun to gradually promote it among the cavalry of the whole Tang Dynasty.

Looking up at the sun, it was estimated that it had been three hours since then, and Yang Qing ordered to rest and eat in place. Everyone took out the bread they carried with them and gnawed it, and they couldn't cook on an open fire, so they had to settle down.

Yang Qing pulled Sima Chuan to look at the map: "Yiqing, where did you get this map?" How can it be more delicate than the military department's? ”

"Childe said with a smile, it's for the caravan's own use, and it's familiar if you run around."

It's still a businessman who is diligent, as long as there is a "profit" word driven, a map is more professional than a state agency. Yang Qing was sighing indiscriminately, and suddenly heard the chaos in front of him. As soon as he raised his head in surprise, Zhang Nan had already run to him:

"General Zuo Lang, grab a Hu man in front of you!"
