Chapter 192: How to Mess with the Enemy

On a slope, where a hundred horses were grazing on hay, Xu Qing and the others sat on the ground to rest for a while. Although saving the prince is an important matter, you must also cultivate your spirit to save it, right?

The general led by the hundred-person dragon guard is called Li Yu, this is a name and surname, and the original name is unknown. At this time, he walked up to Xu Qing and asked puzzledly, "General, what are you asking us to buy white linen for?" ”

Xu Qing glanced at Li Yu's unhappy look, and suddenly realized in his heart that red and white are taboo in this army, red represents red wounds and bloodshed, and white represents sacrifice and death, so Xu Qing's proposal made Li Yu unhappy. Xu Qing pointed to the vast plains under the hillside and asked, "Have you seen that the snow on the grassland has not yet melted, and we, wearing black armor, are tantamount to being a live target for the enemy." We put a white cloth over our bodies, not only on us, but also on our horses. ”

Li Yu looked into the distance, and then looked at himself, indeed, the black and white colors are put together, and it is extremely easy to see. But Li Yu still asked: "General, can this set of white linen cloth work?" ”

Xu Qing said bluntly: "It doesn't have much effect, the grassland people are familiar with the grassland, and it is easy to see the abnormality, but if you can have one more life, you can have one more life." ”

Li Yu groaned, called a person, and commanded a few words in his ear, and the man took a few brothers and went to Yingzhou City. Xu Qing saw it and nodded, this Li Yu is not bad, and it is reasonable to go in.

Li Yu avoided the others and quietly asked Xu Qingdao, "General, have you ever fought?" ”

Xu Qing was stunned, why did he ask like this, feeling that Li Yu thought that he was a recruit who had never fought before. Seeing Xu Qing like this, Li Yu explained: "General, I don't mean anything else, it's just that if you haven't fought before, I'll let someone protect you." ”

Xu Qing returned: "I fought with the King of Qin in Hebei against Liu Heimin, with the Xi cavalry in Liaodong, and with the Goguryeo people in the Bohai Kingdom, do you say I have never fought?" ”

Li Yu looked at Xu Qing in surprise, he didn't expect that Xu Qing, who looked young, had experienced so many battles. He also thought that Xu Qing was a rookie on the battlefield, and he had to cover his eyes even when he saw someone. And now, now that he knows that Xu Qing is a battlefield general, then when he kills the enemy, he doesn't have to worry about anything.

At this time, Xu Qing said: "However, you still have to send someone to protect me." General, although I have experienced many battles, but I have killed few enemies, I am not good at martial arts, nor can I shoot arrows, if you don't send someone to guard me, I will lose my life if I am not careful. ”

Li Yu sighed and said, "General, are the three battles you fought all defeated?" ”

Hearing this, Xu Qing couldn't wait to pounce on him and call him to death, but it was a pity that his whole body was like falling apart and he couldn't move, even if he pounced, he wouldn't win. Xu Qing returned: "Hebei naturally won the fight against Liu Heimin, don't you know?" In Liaodong, I had thousands of infantry and repelled the cavalry, and it was also thousands, and tens of thousands of Goguryeo people were repulsed, and you said that I lost the battle? ”

Li Yu looked at Xu Qing's eyes carefully, and couldn't see any trace of his bragging, so he asked puzzledly: "General, since you don't know martial arts, why can you win?" ”

Xu Qing laughed: "Because general, I rely on my brain to fight, do you understand my brain?" Li Yuan no, no, no, the emperor sent me, not the brave Su Guogong, because my brain is good. ”

At this moment, Li Yu saw that there were a lot of braggart elements in Xu Qing's eyes, so he only let out a soft sigh, and then asked: "General, how sure do you think you are of this attack on Xue Yantuo?" ”

Xu Qing sighed in his heart, Li Yu asked the most bottomless thing in Xu Qing's heart. Xu Qing came out this time, did not bring Dark River, but let Dark River stay in Chang'an to protect his family, and this Dragon Guard, although it was an elite soldier under Li Yuan, Xu Qing didn't know how strong they were, how capable they were, and after all, they were not as good as the team they had cultivated.

In Xu Qing's hands, there were only 100 people, but Xue Yantuo's cavalry had tens of thousands. With such a big gap, Xu Qing's small tricks, I don't know if they can still work. Although there is a gun in the hand, how many people can the gun kill? Although the team of 100 can form a three-line formation, it doesn't play a big role.

The only useful thing Xu Qing could think of was beheading, as long as Xue Yantuo Khan was assassinated, then the other leaders under him would definitely fight among themselves. Even if there is no internal fighting, they can't trust each other, so Xu Qing can contact the prince and contact the large army behind to attack together. Xue Yantuo's various departments could not trust each other, and they must withdraw their troops, and the siege of the prince could be resolved. Xu Qing is done, as for whether Xue Yantuo is destroyed or not, it is not for Xu Qing to do it.

Decapitation, you need to know where the enemy's head is. Xu Qing said slowly: "Xue Yantuo is like a cow, and we people are as small as nails. If you can make a hole in the cow's hoof, the cow will inevitably fall down in pain, and how to pierce this cow's hoof is a problem. ”

Li Yu listened to it and thought deeply, so he asked: "What does the general think this cow's hoof is, and he will find a way to get into it in the future." ”

Xu Qing glanced at him and said, "You can have Xue Yantuo's map, I want to know where the place of the True Pearl Khan's tooth tent is." ”

"General, do you mean ......" Li Yu seemed to guess what Xu Qing meant, and hurriedly took out a bamboo tube and took out a piece of parchment from it. But seeing that there was a landscape city fortress painted on it, Li Yu pointed with his hand and said: "This is White Horse Mountain, that is, the place where the prince was surrounded." The tooth tent of the Pearl Khan is here, but now I don't know if the real tooth tent of the Pearl Khan is still in the White Horse Mountain. ”

Xu Qing looked at it and saw that the tooth tent and the White Horse Mountain were separated by a distance of four or five counties. This is troublesome, the soldiers are very fast, in case Xu Qing pounces on the side, it will be a misstep and hatred. Xu Qing thought about it for a while, thinking that the soldiers led by the prince were among the most elite in the Tang Dynasty, and Xue Yantuo had to have heavy troops to besiege him. According to the custom of the steppe people, how could the Khan of Zhenzhu hand over this heavy army to others?

In addition, the crown prince was surrounded in White Horse Mountain, even if the True Pearl Khan was not there, Xu Qing could think of other ways. And if Xu Qing went to the tooth tent and found that the Khan was not there, then the chance of saving him would be slim.

Thinking about this clearly, Xu Qing said to Li Yu: "Wait a while, the white linen cloth will be bought, tell everyone to put it on, and then work in groups of five, break it into pieces, and go to the area around White Horse Mountain to find the account of the True Pearl Khan." ”

Li Yu arched his hand and said, "Huh! ”

Immediately, Li Yu asked again: "General, don't you need someone to protect you?" ”

"Uh," Xu Qingxin said, why did he mention this stubble again, and then added: "You don't need special protection, it's enough for you to take five people with you, and Xue Rengui next to me." The fewer people there are, the safer they are, and you also tell others that detectives are important, and don't get involved with Xue Yantuo's people. Also tell them where to meet. ”
