Chapter 201: Let the Wind Blow
"Your Highness! Don't do that! ”
"Please think twice, Your Highness!"
"Your Highness! Datang Jiangshan is very important, and you must not be in danger. Flash"
Everyone stood up one after another to oppose Li Chengqian's proposal.
"That's it! What's the noise? The widow just said that if the widow was besieged, would Song Junming come to the rescue, would they have to be the bait himself? ”
Li Chengqian was a little annoyed that these people were speculating wildly, but he was also a little comforted that they were still competent in the end.
"When the time comes, as long as the wind is released, Xue Yantuo will inevitably send people to investigate, and when they find the widow's carriage, they will conclude that the widow is among them, and they will inevitably send a large army to besiege it."
"This is not the point, the key is how to prevent the enemy's attack and wait for reinforcements from Xiazhou to arrive." Li Chengqian said.
"Your Highness, we can find a terrain that is conducive to defense, build fortifications, and form a forward position that can be attacked and retreated." After some thought, Pei Xingjian suggested to Li Chengqian.
"Oh! I don't know where you think it's appropriate to build fortifications. Li Chengqian asked, turned back to Wang Quan and said, "Go get a map." ”
"No!" Wang Quan was ordered to retreat and find a map to put in front of Li Chengqian and the generals.
Pei Xingjian stepped forward, and after some inspection, his finger pointed at a place and said, "Build fortifications here for defense." ”
Li Chengqian looked at the place Pei Xingjian was pointing to, Li Chengqian couldn't understand it a little, it was really a limited level of drawing maps in this era.
It is not as accurate as the maps of later generations, and it seems that there is a chance to make a contour map.
nodded and said: "This matter will be handed over to you, with Cheng Wuting and Xue Wanche assisting!" ”
"No!" Pei Xingjian, Cheng Wuting, and Xue Wanche saluted.
This is the end of this military conference.
Soon news came to Xue Yantuo's camp, and at this time, the 200,000 troops transferred from the mainland had just arrived at the camp.
After Bazhuo learned the news of Li Chengqian, he was shocked at first, and it was unbelievable that the crown prince of an empire dared to personally lead an army of 20,000 and watch from the side of his army.
Not to mention anything else, let's just say that Li Chengqian's courage is still admired by Bazhuo, after all, if he were replaced by Bazhuo, he may not have the courage to dare to wait for an opportunity on the side of the 200,000 enemy troops.
"Li Chengqian, the crown prince of the Tang Dynasty, led 20,000 troops on the side of our army, what does he want to do? Ben Khan thought that this was the strategy of the Tang army, intending to inflict heavy damage on my Xue Yantuo through the momentum of the left and right flanks. ”
"His plan has been seen through by Ben Khan, and he has sent an order to immediately send troops to attack Li Chengqian's department."
Ba Zhuo immediately convened the generals to discuss the matter, and Ba Zhuo thought that Li Chengqian was planning to flank his army left and right with the Tang army in Xiazhou, but unfortunately the news leaked.
Ba Zhuo thought that he should immediately send troops to pull out this nail, and by the way, he would catch the prince of the Tang Dynasty and use it as a bargaining chip to force the Tang Dynasty to cede land and pay compensation.
"Khan and slow! The people of the Tang Dynasty have always been insidious and cunning, the prince is the prince of the Tang Dynasty, and he is the foundation of the Tang Dynasty, how could the Tang Dynasty people let such a noble person lead the troops to fight. ”
"Aren't they afraid that the prince will have something to lose? I thought it was very likely that this was a trick of the Tang Dynasty. ”
"The purpose is to lure us into the bait, and then launch an attack, I might as well go down, I will definitely be severely damaged by the Tang army."
Among the generals, however, there were those who objected to Bazhuo's proposal, and they generally believed that it was most likely a smoke bomb planted by the cunning Tang Dynasty.
The real purpose is to lure them into being deceived, once their army attacks, the enemy army in Wantong City in Xiazhou will take the opportunity to counterattack.
It is impossible for the people of the Tang Dynasty to make fun of their own crown prince, let alone let the prince take risks.
"I think what the Khan said is not unreasonable, the emperor of the Tang Dynasty went on an expedition, and the crown prince of the Tang Dynasty was the person with the highest status in the Tang Dynasty."
"In order to establish his prestige, it is not impossible for him to personally lead the troops into battle, you must not forget that when the Tang Dynasty was established, their former prince led soldiers to fight."
"Now that the Tang Emperor is still martial, it is not surprising that the prince of the Tang Dynasty leads the troops." Some support the opinion that this may be true.
Some people are in favor, and naturally there are people who are against it.
"Although the Tang Dynasty often fought externally, it was very stable internally, and the Tang Emperor rarely personally led the troops to the battle, let alone the Tang Dynasty prince!"
"This must be a trick of the Tang Dynasty, the purpose of which is to lure our army forward, and then wipe out our army." General Xue Yantuo said.
The meaning in the format is obvious, this is the conspiracy of the Tang Dynasty people, a lie made up in order to let them be deceived.
As a result, these generals were divided into two factions, arguing endlessly, arguing with one head and two big, and they were annoying.
"Enough!" I can't stand it! Shouted a shout.
Everyone immediately stopped the fierce quarrel, and the big tent immediately fell silent.
"Yes or no, wait for Ben Khan to send scouts to investigate, you guys retreat first." Bazhuo said that he planned to send someone to find out the news first.
Whether he is the crown prince of the Tang Dynasty or not, he will send troops to eliminate this Tang army force beside him, and he will never allow unstable factors to stay by his side.
"Obedience Khan!" The people hurriedly bowed and withdrew from the tent.
"Someone!" Bazhuo shouted outside the tent.
"Khan! What are the commands? "The soldiers entered and saluted.
"The quick messenger ordered the scouts to go and investigate, whether the Tang army that appeared on the side of our army exists, and whether it is the prince of the Tang Dynasty?" Bazhuo said.
"Yes!" The soldiers took the order and left.
The scouts, who had received the order to pull the burn, immediately galloped out of the camp and went to investigate.
The scouts were scouting outside Li Chengqian's camp, but they did not dare to go deeper, for fear of being discovered by the other party, and after drawing a map of the camp defenses they saw, they immediately returned to report to Bazhuo.
"Is that true?" Bazhuo looked at the leader of the scouts kneeling in front of him.
"Khan! The subordinates sent several groups of scouts to investigate, and the news that came back was the same result, the Tang army had more than 20,000 people, and it was only 50 miles away from our army's camp. The scout leader said.
"It seems that there is really a partial division of the Tang Dynasty on the side of our army, waiting for an opportunity to move at any time, so can you find out whose soldiers and horses it is?" Bazhuo said.
"Judging from the enemy's banner and chariot, it should be the army of the crown prince of the Tang Dynasty." The scout leader said.
"What is the situation of the enemy's military deployment, can it be found?" Bazhuo asked.
As long as he was sure that there was really a Tang army on the side of his army, Bazhuo would have a reason to send troops, and now it was even concluded that the commander of the other party was the prince of the Tang Dynasty.
This made Bazhuo even more happy, as long as he could capture the Tang Dynasty prince alive, he would not believe that the Tang Dynasty people would not obey.
"I drew a few pictures of the layout of the enemy camp." After the scout leader finished speaking, he got up and spread out the prepared blueprints.
He explained to Bazhuo the location of Li Chengqian's army and how to deploy it.
