Su Dingfang came to the camp of the Beiwei army and called Wei Chi Baolin. "General Wei Chilang, immediately order a thousand men and horses, bring special equipment, and prepare to set off immediately."

As soon as Cheng Chumo's dog ears moved, he knew that something was wrong and immediately ran up and said, "General, is the chief manager sending us to be the vanguard, you bring me with you, you know that in addition to you and Baolin, I am the third fierce general in the army, you say yes?"

Su Dingfang said, "This mission is very dangerous, and I also have to bring elite soldiers and strong generals." ”

Cheng Chumo grinned, "No, then I must be counted as one." ”

This is Li De's voice coming, "I think it's okay, Lao Su, you take him with you, he has a virtue with him, and he doesn't make trouble for a day." ”

Su Dingfang saw Li De coming over and saluted, "I've seen Your Highness, why are you here?" ”

Li De waved his hand and said, "Okay, let's not do this between us, I'm also here to gather soldiers, this raid task is given to you, I can't be idle, right, just right, call everyone over to gather." I have something to say."

"No"

Soon all the soldiers of the Beiwei Army were assembled and stood opposite Li De, Li De saw that the soldiers were in good spirits, and his eyes were full of the magic of eagerness, it was not in vain that he spent so much manpower and material resources to establish this army, as long as the battle against the Turks was completed, this army was definitely an elite soldier after the baptism of the battlefield.

Li De opened his mouth and said, "Soldiers, today will be the day when our Weiwei army will go down in history, because soon General Su and I will lead you to set off separately, as the vanguard of the army to raid Dingxiang, this time I pulled down my face and asked the general manager in front of all the officers, this opportunity can be described as a golden opportunity, today is also the time to test the results of your hard training in the past few months, take out your skills, give me the demeanor of our Tang boys, I believe that with our ability to carry the Wei army, we will definitely be able to get off to a good start, Break through Dingxiang, capture Jieli alive, this king asks you to fight bravely to kill the enemy, the king who died in battle is responsible for raising your family, the disabled king is responsible for raising you for a lifetime, whether you are a small soldier or an officer, as long as you make meritorious service, this king promises to give you additional officials and knights, and reward you for meritorious deeds. Now began to issue an order, Su Dingfang selected a thousand men and horses, as the vanguard to raid Dingxiang, this king led the remaining 4,000 soldiers to detour to Dingxiang in advance to Baidao to ambush, sniping the Turks who fled from Dingxiang to the northern Yinshan. ”

When all the soldiers heard Li De's promise, their blood boiled, and their eyes were about to burn. Li De will not say that those who are also for the people of the country or something, not to be a soldier is to seal his wife and son, we will not rectify the void, first solve the worries of the soldiers, and add the lure of high-ranking officials, everyone is willing to work hard. This is true throughout the ages.

Su Dingfang stood up and ordered, "Wei Chi Baolin, Cheng Chumo, immediately order a thousand people, and set off immediately when the equipment is ready"

Yu Chi Baolin, Cheng Chumo listed "Promise"

Li De then ordered, the rest of the people prepared to go, checked the equipment, Li Zhen, Fang Yiai, Niu Jianhu came out.

Li De looked back and forth at the three of them, and saw that Li De's eyes swept over the three of them, and they all held their heads high, full of confidence. The spirit is very good, Li De said, "This time I called the three of you out, I will also give you a test, the remaining four thousand Beiwei army, the general manager will also add a thousand cavalry to me, among the three of you, Li Zhen is the main one, and the two of you are the deputies, give me five thousand soldiers to set off on the white road to set up an ambush, Li Zhen, do you have the confidence to command the army in the center?" ”

Li Zhen took a step forward and said: "Please rest assured, the last general is willing to make a military order, and never let a soldier or a soldier go to the Turks." ”

Li De saw that Li Zhen was not allowed to say good to Li Ji in his heart, and he must have opened a small stove for Li Zhen in normal times, and this is the reason why Li De chose him, his father is the commander, and this son can't be a waste, except for Su Dingfang, Li Zhen and Wei Chi Baolin can try to cultivate a central commander, Cheng Chumo, Niu Jianhu, Fang Yiai can also be regarded as a fierce general, especially Fang Yiai, since joining the Beiwei Army, he has made rapid progress, this kid has trained hard, and now he is no worse than Wei Chi Baolin and Cheng Chumo, In terms of strength, it is even better.

Li De said, "Okay, I can only kill people, and you will be in charge of the dispatch of this army. ”

Threesome salute "obey"

Here Du He, the eldest grandson rushed forward and said, "Lord Wang, we also have to set off with the army,"

Li De said solemnly, "No." As civil officials, you two should follow the general and do a good job of logistics,"

The eldest grandson Chong said, "Lord Wang, you can't favor one over the other, although Du He and I are civil officials, we are also members of the back army, we can't watch you fight, but we enjoy comfort in the rear." Please fulfill the prince. ”

Du He: "That's it, my lord, my father asked me to make meritorious contributions, otherwise I will definitely not have good fruit to eat when I go back, and my bereavement will be on it, if I can't go back, how can I see people,"

The eldest grandson Chong continued, "Yes, third uncle, our martial arts are not bad. You agree, I'm your nephew, how can I explain to my father when I go back?"

Li Dexiang also nodded and asked them to join.

After a while, all the soldiers were prepared, Su Dingfang took Yu Chi Baolin, and Cheng Chumo divided a thousand people from the army, and saluted Li De with a fist and said, "The back of the Wei army is carrying mountains, standing majestically, and making meritorious contributions, just set off today!" Behind him, the soldiers grabbed the reins and set off from the Evil Sun Ridge.

Li De also turned around and went to ask Li Jing for his resignation, and then took 5,000 soldiers and ran north together, it was snowing, and the horses' hooves flew and rolled up thousands of piles of snow.

Li Jing watched Su Dingfang go straight to Dingxiang, Li De followed closely behind the two teams of soldiers pulled out two black lines on the grassland, and pulled out two long traces at the horse's hooves, and after a while, he saw the two teams separated left and right, running towards the present.

Li Jing thought that the success or failure of this war would depend on these two teams, so he turned around and ordered Wei Chi Jingde to set off with the army to attack Dingxiang behind Su Dingfang.

The army of 30,000 took action, and the army galloped and covered the sky on the grassland, reflecting the heavy snow, like a black dragon, running into the distance with its teeth and claws.

Outside the city of Dingxiang

Su Dingfang led the team to the vicinity and told everyone to hide their tracks and wait for orders. Su Dingfang looked at Dingxiang City from a distance, there were several bonfires in the city, there were many figures around, and there were no soldiers guarding the female wall, and there was a bottom in his heart that was similar to what the guide said.

"Chu Mo, you take a few people to the bottom of the city wall, see if the guards are relatively lax in defense, go and return quickly."

Cheng Chu silently ordered a few clever soldiers, took advantage of the night to quietly touch the city wall, slowly poked his head out and looked up, did not find the patrolling soldiers, faintly heard the sound of soldiers talking together, but he did not understand Turkic and could not understand. Cheng Chumo was bold, and slowly walked along the city wall to the city gate, and found no abnormality. Turning his head, he whispered to the people behind him, "You stay here and watch, if there is any change, report it immediately, you know, I will go back and report to the general now." ”

After a few people nodded, they separated and hid under the city wall to a place that was not easy to find, and Cheng Chu silently returned the same way.

"General Qiyu, Dingxiang City is really laxly guarded, and no patrol soldiers were found, I heard the sound of talking on the city tower, and they all gathered around the fire to keep warm."

Su Dingfang raised his head and looked at Dingxiang City again, his eyes sharpened and said to everyone, "The Turks must think that we will not attack them in such bad weather again, everyone relaxes their vigilance, this kind of God-given opportunity is simply a golden opportunity, God has let us make this great achievement, Tianyu will not take it but suffer from it, and will decide to attack immediately." Yu Chi Baolin, Cheng Chumo"

"The Last Will Be"

"Each of you brings a team of soldiers, attack the east and west gates, delay the Turkic reinforcements, this will lead the troops to attack the south gate is bound to open the city gate, let the army enter Dingxiang City, you must remember that you only need to delay the reinforcements in two directions, not let you fight hard, we people can't fight past the Turkic army, our goal is just to open the city gate, and after the city is broken, you will bring people into the city to prevent fire everywhere, create chaos, once the army enters the city, we will merge and go straight to the Jieli Khan tent,. Clear?"

The two looked at each other and said, "Yes." ”

Su Dingfang then said, "Very good, now go and prepare separately, and order the soldiers to hurry to the general to explain the situation of Dingxiang, and ask the general to march quickly." ”

The herald led the order and rushed towards Li Jing's army.

Thirty miles away from Dingxiang City.

Li Jing and his army had also arrived not far from Dingxiang, and after receiving the news from Su Dingfang, he estimated the speed of the march and the weather conditions. Immediately said to the herald, "You go back quickly and tell Su Dingfang that the attack will be launched in half an hour, and our troops will arrive immediately, so that he must open the city gate." ”

"No"

Li Jing issued an order again: "Someone, pass the order, order Wei Chigong to lead all the cavalry to advance lightly, be sure to arrive at Dingxiang in half an hour, and cooperate with Su Dingfang's troops to attack the city." ”

"Order the infantry in the rear to throw away all their baggage. Hurried march to Dingxiang. ”

Herald "obeys"

After a while, Chi Gong, the front lieutenant, received Li Jing's order, and immediately gathered the cavalry, threw away the excess burden, and left the army to Dingxiang.

Li Jing led the Chinese army on a rapid march with slow infantry.
