Hebei border pass, Daizhou Yanmen.

The north wind was raging, and the cold was bone-chilling.

Cheng Wu stood up wearing heavy armor and holding a war knife, and strode onto the head of Yanmen Pass. Just behind him, the Turkic wolf's head was being torn apart and burned, while another golden-white five-clawed golden dragon Datang flag was rising.

Cheng Wuting looked up at the Tang flag, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he muttered in a low voice, "It should be red." ”

Wang Yu strode towards this side with a few guards, and after standing still, he clasped his fists and bowed: "General Evil, my subordinates have verified that all the Turks have fled to the north. Shuozhou City has also been won without a fight. ”

Cheng Wuting immediately heard the relieved exhalations of several people, gritted his teeth and said hatefully: "It's useless!" ”

So they were silent.

"The Turks can fight wherever they want, kill enough people and grab enough money, pat their butts and leave. Our group of Tang soldiers, known as the sons of the masters, are useless except to hold on to the city left by their ancestors. Cheng Wuting scolded loudly in front of all the soldiers, "It's a shame that you still have face, take a long breath!" ”

Everyone was silent, and Wang Yu also turned his face away.

"I don't have a face, standing on top of this Yanmen City Pass." Cheng Wuting slapped his hands on the tiles of the women's wall, looked up at the sky and sighed, and shouted: "Look! There are many people there, the heroes of the Tang Dynasty who died in Yanmen City, and the heroes of the ancients who have guarded this pass for generations, are all pointing at Cheng Wuting and scolding! ”

"Bad seeds!"

"Bear Bag!"

"Shrunken turtle!"

"Eat dry food waste!"

"A fool who deserves to be cut off!"

Wang Yu's face cramped, and he said in his heart: From the first day he was stationed in Taiyuan to defend the city, Cheng Wuting's temper has been getting bigger and bigger day by day. Li Xiaoyi was ordered by the emperor to defend the city to the death, but Cheng Wuting thought about going out of the city every day to attack the enemy's horse leather shroud. But the reality is that although Cheng Wuting commanded the soldiers and horses, Li Xiaoyi commanded him.

Now that the two states of the Shuo Dynasty have all recovered without a fight, Li Xiaoyi is busy playing on the table, but Cheng Wuting is here looking at the sky and scolding the street.

"What about Dang Jinbi and Guo Dafeng?!" Cheng Wuting suddenly shouted.

Wang Yu suddenly came back to his senses, "The second general of the party Guo is cleaning up all parts of the city, preparing to set up camp and go down to the village. ”

"These two people know how to dig pits to make fires, dig pits to make food, dig pits and shrink, and dig pits to defend them. In the previous life, it must have been a pair of rat mothers! Cheng Wuting scolded, "Now this kung fu is a fart village, go and call them!" ”

"Yes." Wang Yu smiled bitterly, and hurriedly sent the attendants around him to summon people.

A moment later, Dang Jinbi and Guo Dafeng both came, trotting all the way.

Busy cleaning up the dumped houses in the city and clearing the roads, the two of them were really covered in dust.

Seeing the two of them like this, the guards nearby couldn't help but want to laugh. Even Cheng Wuting couldn't help it, and said with a smile: "Rat Male Rat, it's hard work." ”

"What?" Dang Jinbi and Guo Dafeng were confused.

"Nothing, get down to business!" Cheng Wuting waved his hand and said, "You two plus me, and Wang Yu, the four important generals are all here." I would now like to announce an important resolution. ”

All three lifted their spirits.

Cheng Wuting said: "The Turkic enemy army plundered the population and looted the goods, and left. Now, I certainly haven't been able to go far. Our army must pursue it quickly, and recover all the captive people and looted goods! ”

"What?"

All three were taken aback at the same time.

"Who has objections?" Cheng Wuting asked in a deep voice.

Dang Jinbi and Guo Dafeng wanted to stop talking, so they set their eyes on Wang Yu. It's not that they don't have opinions and opinions, but Xi wants to listen to Wang Yu's statement first. Since that Luoshui lecture on martial arts, they have gradually developed Liao-like habits.

Cheng Wuting also looked at Wang Yu, "If you have something to say, just say it!" ”

Wang Yu hesitated for a moment and said, "General Evil, the Turkic enemy army that once occupied the two states of Shuodai, is the main force of their khanate. The number of soldiers and horses is no less than 300,000, and there are even more Gu Lu and Yuan Zhen personally supervising the battle. Now that they have withdrawn, we somehow, but certainly not because of defeat. In view of this, the subordinates considered it inappropriate for our army to pursue. ”

"yes!" Dang Jinbi echoed, "Even if we catch up, the enemy army is three times larger than mine, how can I win?" ”

Guo Dafeng said: "My subordinates thought that the enemy army had withdrawn strangely. Or lure the enemy deeper, that's not for sure. Properly considered, his subordinates also believed that it was not appropriate for our army to pursue in a hurry now. ”

"So, all three of you are against the pursuit?" Cheng Wuting said.

The three generals nodded at the same time.

"I expected you to be like this." Cheng Wuting sneered, "From the first day you left Luoyang, you have not been with me. You are more willing to listen to Li Xiaoyi, you are the same as him, you are the good son of the Empress Dowager Wu. ”

The faces of the three generals suddenly became ugly, and Guo Dafeng hurriedly said: "General Evil, we all respect you very much, and we have always obeyed your orders. It's too out-of-the-box and hurtful for you to say that. ”

"I don't mean to hurt you, and I don't care if you really respect me." Cheng Wuting said: "Fighting and talking about feelings is a trick played by girls. Now I just want to know, if I give the order to pursue, you will never be in the crowd? ”

Dang Jinbi and Guo Dafeng once again set their sights on Wang Yu.

Wang Yu's eyebrows tightened, pondering.

Cheng Wu looked at him steadily, but he was not in a hurry to ask. Looking at it, Cheng Wuting suddenly smiled.

"Why is the evil general laughing?"

Cheng Wuting said with a smile: "Fang Cai, I seem to see a little shadow of Xue Shao from Wang Yu's expression. ”

The second general was stunned, and Wang Yu's face was a little red.

Guo Dafeng hurriedly tugged at his sleeve behind him, signaling him to "refuse to pursue".

"Guo Dafeng, Wang Yu has his own opinions. Don't fool around. Cheng Wu said in a loud voice, "Otherwise, you stand up like a man and show your attitude." ”

was so provoked by Cheng Wuting, Guo Dafeng really stood up, "I don't approve of the pursuit!" ”

"I don't approve of it either!" Dang Jinbi has always been inseparable from Guo Dafeng.

Cheng Wuting pursed his lips disapprenously, "Wang Yu, what about you?" ”

Wang Yu paused for a moment and said, "General Evil, after all, the enemy's strength is far superior to ours, and if we fight, our army will be difficult to defeat. In view of this, his subordinates suggested that even if they really wanted to pursue, they should first carefully ascertain all the movements of the enemy before making tactical arrangements. At the same time, it may be the best policy to recruit Xue Ne and Tang Xiujing's troops to come to help in the war. In addition, the veteran general Wang Fangyi may be able to provide some more useful insights. In short, we should be a little more cautious. ”

After listening, Cheng Wuting turned around, supported the wall tiles with both hands to the vast wasteland in front of him, and said to himself: "I respect Wang Fangyi very much. But he is already old, too old to move, so old that he has lost the pride and ambition of the year. If you ask him, you might as well ask you. ”

The three generals were slightly stunned and silent.

Cheng Wuting still said as if talking to himself: "Yunzhou Xue Ne, Ulzhou Tang Xiujing, they can be on par with Mo Si, but it is commendable." But when they arrived with their army, the civilian women who had been taken captive by the Turks would have to stand up and wait for the babies to be born! ”

Seeing that Cheng Wuting's attitude was quite resolute, Wang Yu was a little anxious, and hurriedly persuaded: "General Evil, now that the enemy has retreated from the county and recovered, the task of our trip has been completed. If you want to make a post-picture, you should also brainstorm and plan carefully, plan and then act. The risk of such a hasty pursuit is too great. ”

Cheng Wuting smiled, turned his face to look at Wang Yu, and said, "Wang Yu, you kid is a talent. Maybe one day, you'll be as outstanding as your teacher. ”

Wang Yu's face was hot, and he hurriedly said: "I will never reach the realm and height of a teacher." ”

"That's right." Cheng Wuting said: "Because compared to your teacher, you will always have a little less on your body." ”

"What's that?" Wang Yu asked subconsciously.

"I can't tell." Cheng Wuting shook his head and said, "Maybe he was born with it, no one can learn it, and no one can steal it." ”

Wang Yu fell into silence in embarrassment.

"I know your attitude." Cheng Wuting said, "Since you don't agree to pursue, then guard the city and wait for the order from Hou Li Xiaoyi!" ”

"Evil General!" Wang Yu was anxious, "Don't act impulsively!" ”

"Shut up, listen to me!" Cheng Wuting snorted and said, "For you, completing the order issued by Li Xiaoyi to recover the Shuo Dynasty has already completed the task of this trip. But for me Cheng Wuting, it is far from it. ”

The three generals were stunned.

Cheng Wuting continued: "I have been mixed in northern Xinjiang for half my life, fought for decades, and I have never tried to watch the enemy swagger away from under my nose with thousands of Tang people and countless cattle and sheep and goods. ”

"You can bear it, I can't bear it!"

Taking a deep breath and pausing, Cheng Wuting continued: "The three of you are the same young and powerful, and you have a bright future; The 50,000 troops of Luoshui, who were compatriots with the Shuofang army, were the last elite royal divisions to defend the capital. None of you can afford to take risks lightly. And I'm very successful, and there will be no day to bow down after this battle. ”

The three generals all widened their eyes, and they only then understood what Cheng Wuting was thinking at the moment.

"This general ordered: The three of you will lead the 50,000 Luoshui army of the headquarters to garrison the two states of Shuodai." Cheng Wuting raised his voice suddenly, and shouted in a deep voice: "The rest of the people, follow me!" ”

"General, no!" The three generals are in a hurry and persuade together.

"I have given the order. Those who disobey the order will be killed! ”

Nuozhen Water Tang Army Battalion, Chinese Army Marshal Account.

Xue Shao sat down with a slump of buttocks, suddenly distracted.

After all means, the two captured Turkic scouts finally confessed. Although they didn't know much, it was enough for Xue Shao.

It's even more, it can be called a "heavy" blow!

"Hold on!" Zhao Yijie let out a deep sigh, and several soldiers rushed in and dragged the prisoner away.

"The young marshal need not be angry. Perhaps, Cheng Wuting will not be fooled? Zhao Yijie persuaded in a low voice.

Xue Shao's expression was a little wooden, and he waved his hand gently, "You don't know Cheng Wuting." ”

Zhao Yijie was a little speechless, so he had to shut up.

Xue Shao let out a long sigh faintly, lay back, closed his eyes, and muttered: "If my expectations are correct, the Hebei battlefield should be like this now: the Turks can't defeat Cheng Wuting, who is defending the city, and they can't annex the whole of Hebei if they can't get over and annex the state." So Yuan Zhen made a retreat to lead the snake out of the hole, and he let the Turkic army withdraw from Shuodai and flee north. With Cheng Wuting's character and his current situation, he will definitely lead the army to pursue. What awaits him at that time will be the crazy counterattack of the main Turkic army and the ambush set by Yuan Zhen! ”

Hearing Xue Shao say this, Zhao Yijie was also a little anxious, and hurriedly said: "If evil is defeated, the Turks will inevitably counterattack Hebei." At that time, who else can resist the enemy on the battlefield in Hebei?! ”

"Yes. Hebei is the main battlefield. I haven't forgotten, and neither has Yuanzhen. Xue Shao sighed heavily, "This is the reason why he personally led the army to Nuozhenshui." He did not come to take revenge, nor to recover his servants and his fellow Luo. He had come all the way to ...... Plug mine! ”
