Chapter 5 Yin Mountain under the Sky Dome!
The camp chosen by Li Jing is located on three slopes, where the army is stationed, and there are slopes on three sides, blocking the sight of the outside world from a long distance, which is simply a natural garrison prepared for the Tang army.
Looking at the past from the camp, there are rolling Yin Mountains in the distance, at this time, it is evening, the sky is overcast, and the Yin Mountains in the distance are also hidden in a haze.
The mountains of Yinshan Mountain gradually rose from south to north, and on the south side, the mountains gradually decreased, and finally when the army was stationed, the peaks disappeared and were replaced by a large plain with green grass.
The fertile land on the plains stretches as far as the eye can see, and in the previous dynasties, it was called Gohara-gun, which is also known as the Hetao area, and it was a large natural pasture.
And according to the Yin Mountain to the north, after the Evil Yang Ridge, is where the Han court of the Turks is located, and the Jieli Khan at this time is in the Han court.
However, Jieli would never have thought that in just two years since he led his troops south, the Tang army had quietly come under his nose, ready to give him a fatal blow.
Of course, he didn't have time to think about these at this time, because, since the beginning of spring this year, the Tang people have forcibly bought and sold to all the tribes of the grassland, and the entire grassland has been surging.
Tuli, who had long been dissatisfied with his plot to seize the throne, completely tore his face with him after getting a glazed wolf, holding a flawless glazed wolf, and preaching everywhere that he was the rightful Khan of the Turks.
In fact, according to the tradition of inheriting the father's business of the Chinese Atom, it is indeed as the Turks said, and the Turks are the next justifiable Khan of the Turks. He, the younger brother of the previous Khan, became illegitimate.
But after all, this is Turkic. It's not the Central Plains Datang, all the rules. It is all decided by the Sirius God, and the decision of the Sirius God is that the position of Khan must be held by the most powerful King Zuoxian.
It's that simple, the Turks don't believe in any tradition of inheriting their father's business, they only believe that whose fists are hard and whose knives are sharp enough!
Poor Tuli, both experience. is still very immature than him in terms of age, so the position of Khan should be done by him, the eagle of the grassland.
Facts have proved that he has done quite successfully as a khan, and since he ascended to the throne of khan, in just a dozen years, he has simply separated the Eastern Turks from that year. has become the overlord who is now proud of the entire grassland.
To be able to do this, Jieli has surpassed the previous Khan, so what Jieli wants to do. is not only the overlord of the grassland, he also wants to be the overlord of the whole world.
The grassland is controlled in the north, and Dingxiang is the Han court. Then expand the power to the south to the Central Plains. So as to achieve the point of domestic control!
It's a pity that the heavens don't fulfill people's wishes. Just as he was ambitiously preparing for all this, a series of internal strife began to appear within the Turks, and in particular, the rebellion of the Turks made him extremely annoyed.
In the past year, Jieli has basically done nothing, so he is busy dealing with Tuli's rebellion, and Tuli is holding the perfect form of the wolf, lobbying around, making him very passive.
However, the wolf in his hand was broken, one wing was broken by Zhao Chen when he was in Chang'an, and one leg was broken by Tang Jian, which could not be compared with the sudden wolf.
Jieli naturally knew that this was a conspiracy played by the Tang people, using the wolf to provoke the unity of the grassland, but even if he knew, the people of the grassland believed in the wolf god.
Even if you know that the glazed wolf is made by the Tang people, you still believe it unconditionally!
Datang's hand played well, almost from the time the wolf was introduced to the grassland, the entire grassland began to become restless, Tuli rebelled against him, Xue Yantuo betrayed him, and even the Tiele tribe, which he despised the most in the past, actually betrayed him.
And all of this was done by the Marquis of Chang'an of the Tang Dynasty, every time Jieli thought of it, he couldn't wait to crush Zhao Chen and personally crush his bones and ashes!
As evening approached, the sky was overcast and the sun was obscured behind dark clouds, so the whole grassland became gray, and the weather became overcast.
In the camp of the Chinese army, there was a lot of noise at the moment, when Zhao Chen came with the Flying Tiger Army, it was just in time for dinner time in the camp, in the huge camp, smoke and dust were billowing and more than 20 fireheads were busy preparing food.
"I thought it would take another three or two days for you to come!" Li Jing is not in the camp, the person in charge of the camp is the old lieutenant Chi Gong, the deputy head of Dingxiang Road, Zhao Chen asked the Flying Tiger Army to temporarily camp and ran to the big tent of the Chinese army, the old lieutenant Chi Gong looked at Zhao Chen and said.
"Military affairs are on your body, how dare you delay for a moment!" Zhao Chen and the old lieutenant Chi Gong are not strangers, last year when they were in Shuofang, the two had cooperated to conquer Shuofang City, and this time, they were in the same army again, fighting against the Turks.
In the big tent of the Chinese army, at this time, not only the old lieutenant Chi Gong, but also the commander of the Xuanjia Army, Duan Zhixuan, saw Zhao Chen's arrival, Duan Zhixuan couldn't help but show a smile on his dead face, and nodded at Zhao Chen.
Zhao Chen also smiled at Duan Zhixuan, there was a strange look in his eyes, Li Er sent Duan Zhixuan this time, and he didn't know if it was decided in the morning, or because of the competition.
In short, this time between him and Duan Zhixuan, they can be regarded as comrades-in-arms and rivals in competition!
"Isn't the Grand Steward here?" Zhao Chen entered the big tent of the Chinese army and talked to the old lieutenant Chi Gong for a long time, but he didn't wait for Li Jing's figure, so he had to take the initiative to ask the old lieutenant Chi Gong.
"The chief manager has taken people out!" When the old lieutenant Chi Gong heard this, he looked at Zhao Chen, and said in a deep voice: "Before you came, the chief manager only took people away, and when you came back, it was already very late!" ”
"Oh!" When Zhao Chen heard the words of the old lieutenant Chi Gong, he immediately sighed and stopped asking, Li Jing took people out at this time, naturally he went to investigate the military situation, and Zhao Chen didn't want to ask again.
Knowing that Li Jing was not in the camp, Zhao Chen did not delay any longer, and immediately asked for the codex of camping from the old lieutenant Chi Gong, and was busy arranging the camping of the Flying Tiger Army.
Seeing that the sky is getting dark, you can't let yourself follow the thousands of Flying Tiger Army and sit in the field for a night!
The camp of the Flying Tigers is just to the left of the main camp. Next to it is the camp of the Xuanjia Army.
When Zhao Chen camped with the Flying Tiger Army, he was in the barracks of the Xuanjia Army. A moment later, there were dozens of Xuanjia sergeants. Led by a school captain, he came to help set up camp for the Flying Tigers.
These Xuanjia Army, Zhao Chen is no stranger, when he came to Shuofang last year, Li Er sent to protect him in the Xuanjia Army, there were these dozens of people, and the leader was naturally the Xuanjia Military Captain named Sun Xing.
"Master Hou!" Sun Xing and his men, as soon as they entered the camp of the Flying Tiger Army, they went straight to Zhao Chen's side. asked his subordinates to help set up a tent for Zhao Chen, and he himself came to Zhao Chen, with a smile on his face, and shouted at Zhao Chen.
"Captain Sun is here this time, too?" Zhao Chen was standing there smoking a cigarette at this time, looking at the hazy Yin Mountain in the distance, seeing Sun Xing coming, he immediately looked at Sun Xing and smiled.
"I won it so hard!" Sun Xing's face was full of stubble, and after hearing Zhao Chen's words, he immediately grinned. With a smile, he showed a mouthful of white Sensen's teeth, and said to Zhao Chen: "When the time comes, a certain family will slaughter a few more Turks and cook snacks for Hou Ye!" ”
"Get out!" These killers. The head that has already killed people is abnormal, and as soon as he opens his mouth, he likes to use other people's internal organs as snacks. It's disgusting to listen to.
However, it is so. Zhao Chen knew that these guys were all upright people. It's just that he doesn't know how to pat himself, obviously to please him, but on the contrary, he has become disgusting Zhao Chen.
Knowing that this bastard, what he is doing so diligently, is nothing more than running for the wine in Zhao Chen's hand. It was forbidden to drink alcohol in the barracks, and it was found that it was to eat military sticks.
So, Zhao Chen took advantage of the fact that others were not paying attention, so he gave Sun Xing a wine jug that he had brought with him.
Sure enough, as soon as Sun Xing got the wine jug, he immediately left in a hurry, running faster than a rabbit, and Zhao Chen, who saw it, suddenly rolled his eyes.
Li Jing probably came back in the middle of the night, at that time, the whole camp was quiet, Zhao Chen was sleeping on the couch, heard a 'rumbling' sound of horses' hooves outside, sleepy eyes turned over, listening to the movement outside.
After a while, I heard that in the camp, which was still quiet just now, there was an instant burst of people shouting and neighing, and when I listened carefully, I really heard Li Jing's voice, which was also among them.
Convinced that Li Jing had returned, Zhao Chen simply got up from the couch, put on the outer robes, lit a cigarette, and sat quietly on the couch to smoke.
After waiting for a short time, sure enough, a herald came over, saying that the chief was waiting in the big tent of the Chinese army, and asked him to go over immediately to discuss the matter.
Zhao Chen had long known that this would be the case, and after hearing this, he followed the herald and walked towards the Chinese army's tent in the middle of the camp.
At this time, in the big tent of the Chinese army, Li Jing was sitting behind the handsome case, and in front of him sat the old lieutenant Chi Gong and Duan Zhixuan.
"Boss!" Zhao Chen entered the military tent and said hello to Li Jing after the handsome case.
"Hmm!" Li Jing, who was frowning at the map there, raised his head when he heard Zhao Chen's words, nodded slightly at Zhao Chen, hummed lightly, pointed to the position on his side and said, "It just so happens that you are here too, let's talk about your opinions together!" ”
Hearing Li Jing's words, Zhao Chen did not shirk, sat on the side of the handsome case according to his words, looked at the map on the table, and listened to the three of them talking next to him, and after a while, he understood the reason for the matter.
It turned out that the place where they were located was just separated from the location of the Turkic Han Court by a Yin Mountain, and if they wanted to directly attack the Han Court, there were two ways to choose.
One is to detour to Yinshan, along the foot of Yinshan Mountain, it will take less than five days to directly reach the vicinity of Hanting, so that you can directly attack Hanting.
The other way is to take people directly over Yin Mountain, interspersed with the Evil Yang Ridge, and directly from the back of the Han Court, and suddenly launch an attack.
What Li Jing thought at the beginning was that the first way was to take the army around Yinshan, along the foot of Yinshan Mountain, until he sneaked near Hanting, and then launched a direct attack on Hanting.
In the evening, Li Jing took people out to investigate the feasibility of this road, but when he went, he found that this road would not work at all.
The Turks are not stupid, they know that this road is flat, easy to attack and difficult to defend, so a large number of Turkic troops are stationed between the Han Court and the Tang Dynasty, and if the army wants to pass along this road, it will directly encounter this Turkic army.
And the result is that before the Han court has seen Jieli, the army of the Tang Dynasty will most likely fall into a bitter battle, even if this army is defeated, at that time, there will be no hope of continuing to march towards the Han court. (To be continued.) )
