Chapter 329: Anger

Perhaps it was the momentum of the soldiers who looked at death as if they were at home that shocked the flames, and the scene of the flames just now has been greatly improved, and the flames that have become very small are still struggling, and the flames that are dormant in the ashes of the grass and trees are flickering and extinguishing with the blowing of the wind, just like hunters who are ready to come at any time, and they can do it again after seeing the opportunity.

God, who had been sleeping for a long time, finally received people's prayers when night fell, and a little rain began to sprinkle on the earth.

When the raindrops fall in the middle of the fire, they will be driven back to the sky by the red-hot temperature and turn into steam again, but the steam will not fly long before it will be merged with other raindrops carrying the low temperature and fall on the earth again.

"Oh~"

The heavy rain fell down, directly so that the fire that was still dormant just now completely lost the soil for survival, with a heavy unwillingness to return to hell, everyone in the rain at the same time in the heavy rain excited and loud roared, in the face of such a major disaster, they actually defeated it with their hands, this is a great honor in itself, and when they are old, they can definitely tell their grandchildren as a story showing their great achievements, of course, provided that they can live to see their grandchildren.

Jia Yi's face was also full of smiles on his face dyed black by grass and wood ash, and a row of silver teeth was suddenly exposed to the air, Ashina Simo and Dadu set expressed their highest respect to Jia Yi, but Li Daozong was a little interested, he might be able to think of this method, but the situation was urgent at the time, and he didn't want to help the grassland people in his heart, so he buried this method deep in his memory, and he couldn't think of it for a while.

Walking to Jia Yi's side, Li Daozong patted Jia Yi on the shoulder, tried his best to squeeze a little smile on his face, and said softly: "Good job." ”

The battle with the flames was over, and the soldiers who had been nervous before all went into the camp tent one by one after such a great exertion, took off their soaked clothes, and went into the bed, arranging for some people to be on duty, and the others fell into a deep sleep.

As a general, there are naturally a lot less things to work than the soldiers, but this flame came too suddenly, so that each of them felt that there must be something unusual behind this flame, and no one summoned him to stand in Li Daozong's tent at the same time, ready to analyze what was unusual behind this flame.

"What do you think of this fire?" Li Daozong, as the commander-in-chief, threw out this question for the first time.

Many soldiers fell into contemplation, but Jia Yi, Ashina Simo and Dadu's faces were full of solemnity, and the last three people said to Li Daozong at the same time: "The fire was released by Murong Fuyun." ”

If only one person tells the origin of the flame, then it is likely that it is just a very unreliable guess, but if three people say the answer at the same time, then the answer is likely to be the truth.

When all the generals heard the answer given by the three of them, they were all slightly stunned, and then everyone's faces were full of anger, Murong Fuyun's arson burned not only his own pasture, but also his right to live again on the grassland.

Every nomad treats the grass like their mother, because with the grass that grows every year, they have fat cattle and sheep to have a source of survival, any herdsman will take care of the grass, for fear that the grass will be hurt a little, as for the arsonist, only put on the fire and be burned to ashes by the flames, in order to calm the anger of the god of the grassland.

"Damn Murong Fuyun, this is not to give us a way to live, this is this, the last general is willing to be the vanguard, and I beg for permission to pursue the Tuyuhun army."

“……”

Such a voice of invitation to battle quickly resounded in the camp, but everyone knew that as the supreme commander here, they could only get their wish after Li Daozong spoke, however, Li Daozong, as the supreme commander, did not give any orders for a long time.

"It's difficult for the general to make a decision on this matter, so it's better to inform the general and ask him to decide."

After hearing Li Daozong's answer that he had been holding back for a long time, regardless of whether it was a general on the grassland or a general of the Tang Dynasty, everyone's eyes were full of disappointment......

It didn't take long for Li Jing's desk to appear on the table with the report of the first battle and the report of the fire, when Li Jing saw that Murong Fuyun dared to set fire to the grassland, he actually gritted his teeth and clenched his fists, and then hit the table in front of him with a hard punch, and the solid table broke directly in the middle under his punch, which shows how angry Li Jing is at the moment.

"Shaft, the old man swears to kill him."

As the military god of the Tang Dynasty, he can always think about all issues from the most comprehensive perspective, the relationship between the flame and the grassland allows Li Jing to be able to clear it without wasting many brain cells, and his heart praises Jia Yi is also a strong disappointment in Li Daozong's behavior, Li Daozong thinks about the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty no matter when it is, which is a good thing, but if he loses the hearts of the people on the grassland, when the nomads on the grassland come to attack, how many valuable soldiers will the Tang Dynasty lose.

At present, the grassland has been burned to the scorched earth, if you go to pursue, the war horse has no fodder to take anywhere, if it is forcibly pursued, it is very likely that people did not catch up, and the war horse here is starving to death a lot, this matter is a bit big, Li Jing is difficult to decide, so he had to find all the remaining generals to negotiate.

Soon the rest of the generals were all gathered in the commander's tent, Li Jing said the problem, and the soldiers began to discuss.

"The last general thinks that he should not chase in, there is no forage, even if he catches up with Tuyuhun's army, our army is sleepy and lacking, and it is inevitable that Tuyuhun will take the opportunity to annihilate it."

When the other generals heard this, they also echoed it, and for a while, no one in the entire commander's tent was willing to choose to pursue.

Hou Junji, the only one among all the generals in the entire tent who did not speak, waited until everyone else had finished speaking, and then walked up to Li Jing and said loudly: "I thought we should take advantage of the victory to pursue." ”

Hou Junji's words suddenly threw a boulder into the tranquil lake water, stirring up a thousand waves, and Li Jing's eyes lit up and motioned for him to continue.

"The defeat of Tuyuhun in the first battle, coupled with Murong Fuyun's forcible burning of the grassland, is acting against the wishes of all soldiers, and the morale of Tuyuhun soldiers is at its lowest at this moment, if our army catches up at this time, it will definitely be able to inflict further blows on them."

On the one hand, the war is armament, and on the other hand, it is morale, and now the armament of the Tang Dynasty is definitely more than one or two levels higher than that of Tuyuhun, and the morale is the most exciting time after the victory in the first battle, coupled with the suppression of the spread of the grassland fire, it is to make the resentment of the soldiers against the Tuyuhun soldiers reach an unprecedented level.

In order to prevent Tuyuhun from escaping again, Li Jing decided to divide his troops into two routes, one was that he personally led the team to Qilian Mountain, cut off their retreat road, and detoured to Fuqicheng, and the other was led by Hou Junji and Li Daozong to intercept the Tuyuhun army fleeing south.

The battle strategy was quickly conveyed to the various departments, and Hou Juncheng became the commander of the army led by Li Daozong, while Xue Yantuo and the Turkic soldiers were merged under Li Jing's command, and they marched quickly in the direction of Qilian Mountain.

Li Jing's combat policy can be said to be completely controlled by the Tuyuhun army within a narrow range, the current Tuyuhun army is headed in the direction of the moraine, after a little rest will inevitably retreat to Qilian Mountain, Li Jing is through a detour to Qilian Mountain first, and then return to fight fiercely with the Tuyuhun army, then the defeated Tuyuhun army will inevitably wave the army south, and then it will happen to meet Hou Junji and Li Daozong led by the **, so that under the front and back attacks, Tuyuhun will be broken.

Li Jing calculated very well, but I don't know if he didn't expect it or there was really no way to avoid a problem, he didn't make any arrangements, that is, the khans on the grassland all have the same problem, that is, they will choose to run away when they are invincible, and the level of escape is very high, if it is not for luck, it is basically difficult to be caught by the Tang people.

Last time Jieli was a very good teaching material, how many people caught Jieli alone, stunned to let him run on the grassland for a long time, and finally found it in the station, which was fortunate to be caught, if Jieli did not defect to any tribe on the grassland, it was really not difficult to catch him.

This Murong Fuyun is definitely a master of escaping, and this person is much more ruthless than Zhi Jieli, who has no soft eggs, if this kid plunges headlong into the desert, it will really become a needle in a haystack.

After the army was merged and the soldiers were redistributed, the two armies began to march towards their respective battlefields, hearing that Li Jing and Hou Junji were going to cross two thousand miles of no man's land, and even had to cross the broken bones without water and grass, Jia Yi immediately distributed the energy-rich jerky and some canned food he had prepared to them, hoping to help them.

Jia Yi returned to Li Jing's command and began to follow Li Jing's steps on the already scorched grassland, speeding away in the direction of Qilian Mountain.
