In early spring, the Tien Shan Mountains are shrouded in a deep blue sky. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Soon after the sun had risen, through the gaps in the peaks, a ray of sunlight spread over the brown-yellow valley.

The golden sunlight shone on the armor and weapons of the soldiers in the hidden valley, reflecting countless cold and solemn lights.

And this cold light is just like Wei Shuo's gaze in the direction of Silai City (now Urumqi), full of coldness and cruelty.

There was silence all around the canyon, except for flags of various sizes fluttering. Lying beside him were the remnants of the Tianshan Mountains that stretched for hundreds of miles, and the folds that continued to stretch and rise.

The narrow and undulating terrain just created the valley, which is very suitable for the hinterland of Tibetan soldiers.

In the middle of the canyon, there is an open meadow slope from the bottom up, and a tent is built according to the slope topography, which is the big tent of the Chinese army, and the generals of the Gaochang Army led by Wei Shuo are holding a pre-war meeting.

Suddenly, a horse was galloping in the distance, and it was the scout of the army. I saw that the scout bypassed the phalanx of soldiers in the array, and ran straight to the big tent of the Chinese army, until he stopped ten paces away from the big tent.

The scout grabbed the reins, and without waiting for the horse to fully stand still, he raised the bulletin in his hand and shouted, "Urgent military situation! ”

Suddenly, the curtain moved, but he saw Kang Long, the leader of the guards, come out to take the military report from the scout's hand, turn around and walk into the big tent, and after a while, he came out again to lead the scout who had just recovered his breath into the big tent.

"Report to Lord Duwei, in the city, the Wusun army is hunting with banners, and the number of people and horses is coming, and the number should be about 20,000."

"Have you ever seen King Wusun's banner of the Great Emperor?"

"The enemy is heavily armed, and his subordinates have not been able to get close to confirm it."

"Well, the order goes down: the army must be noisy, and you must not go out without an order! The scouts continue to inquire for information and report back as soon as there is definite news. ”

Although Wei Shuo had received news before the war that the prince of Wusun led the main force north to meet the Yuebanren, when the matter came, he still asked the scouts to confirm the movements of the king of Wusun again and again, so as not to make intelligence mistakes and lead to the failure of this battle.

"Obey!" The scout immediately got up and left the tent and rode away.

At this time, Li Wei, whose face was full of wind and dust, got up and said, "Dudu, there will be a plan to break the silt city in the end." ”

"Oh? Xuansheng has a clever plan, but please tell me. Wei Shuo asked with interest.

Li Wei pondered for a moment and said: "Back to the capital, during the period when the last general served as the vanguard, he swept away many marginal tribes of Wusun, and also captured a few prisoners, many of whom were tribal leaders. In the next thought, once the scouts confirmed that the main force of Wusun was not here, the last general was willing to personally lead the elite and the captives to pretend to be the Wusun army, deceive the city, and welcome the army into the city. ”

"Well, hearing about Xuansheng's plan, Shuo is content to use the subtlety of the army. You also need to keep in mind that in the future, the use of troops should be adapted to local conditions, and it is best to be flexible and effective. ”

After mentioning the generals, Wei Shuo looked at Li Wei again and asked, "If you are unfortunately detected by the enemy, what should you do?" ”

"If the sneak attack fails, the army has only one way to attack! However, his subordinates thought that the enemy army might not find out, and all the people and animals where the army passed along the way were destroyed, and few fish slipped through the net. The enemy army in the city did not know the reality of our army at all, and while it was unpredictable, our army would suddenly rush to victory and win a great victory. ”

"Good! If this battle is successful, Xuan Sheng should be the first to take credit. ”

……

A few days later, after the scouts' arduous investigation, Wei Shuo finally figured out the reality of the defenders of Silai City. Wusun Wang Guo is really not in the city, but leading the elite main force to the north, in addition to the soldiers of the eastern tribes in the city, there are still thousands of elites sent by the Wusun King.

Knowing that the fighter plane was coming, Wei Shuo immediately called the generals to assign tasks, he first looked at Li Wei and asked, "Are the elites and prisoners who bear the heavy responsibility of sneak attack ready?" ”

Li Wei clenched his fists and said, "My lord, I and the three hundred cavalry pioneers are ready and ready at any time." ”

"Good! Xuan Sheng led three hundred pioneers disguised as Wusun people and was responsible for opening the gate of Silai City. Wei Shuo ordered decisively.

"No! The last general commands! ”

"Kang Long, you lead a thousand elite cavalry to follow, as long as the city gate is opened, you will immediately lead the army into the city to support Li Wei; The rest of the people will move with me, and when there is chaos in the city, they will immediately attack the rest of the gates, and strive to take the city at the lowest cost. ”

"No! The last general commands! Kang Long replied happily, his face full of excitement but with a murderous aura.

After arranging the generals, Wei Shuo raised his head, looked up at the sky, looked at the night that was gradually darkening, his eyes were hot, and the cold voice drifted to everyone's ears with the cold wind.

"Herald: After the war begins, those who abandon their weapons will not die! But there are those who do not obey the command and carry the sword, and those who resist will be killed!

"Obey!" Everyone responded in unison.

……

As night fell, Li Wei led three hundred elites, with several leaders of the Wusun tribe anyway, and rushed to Silai City first. In order not to make the enemy suspicious, before leaving, everyone had taken off all the armor and uniforms of the Gaochang army and put on bloodstained Wusun clothes.

Li Wei gritted his teeth and calmed down, instigating his mount to run wild in the night. If you don't take a closer look, no one will recognize that this big man with a blood-stained face and a disheveled hair is actually a general of the Gaochang Army.

In the howling cold wind, the rapid sound of horses' hooves from the mount was quickly swept away by the sound of the wind, and soon drowned in the endless darkness.

Soon Li Wei and his entourage came to the city of Silai, and the lights hanging on the city tower showed orange light in the dark night, which was dim and warm.

"Open the gates, I have an urgent military intelligence report to the chief." A Wusun captive, at Li Wei's signal, shouted loudly.

The guards who were patrolling the city wall heard movement under the city, and quickly poked their heads out to take a look, only to see a faint figure shaking in front of the city gate. There may be dozens, maybe hundreds, but because the distance is too far away, the sky is too dark, and it is impossible to distinguish for a while.

I saw a few heads looming out of the city tower, and the sound below was louder.

"You guys should hurry up and open the door, Lao Tzu was chased and killed by the Gaochang people for hundreds of miles before he could escape here, and I still have important information to report to the leader."

At this time, several other captives also began to make noise in Wusun language, and shouted one after another: "Damn, Lao Tzu was chased and killed by the Gaochang people outside, and you still didn't let Lao Tzu enter the city?!" Believe it or not, wait a while, Lao Tzu screwed your head off as a night pot? ”

The defenders hurried down the tower amid the scolding of the city, and a dozen people put down the deadbolt with all their hands, and then squeaked the door open.

Perhaps it was too dark at night, and the defenders were too tired to linger; Or maybe the defenders had already learned that the southern tribes had been attacked, and they didn't suspect the identities of the people at all.

In short, everything went smoothly so that Li Wei, the planner of this battle, couldn't believe it!

Although it is said to be the easternmost city of Wusun Kingdom, because it is close to Gaochang and is the only way for merchants to pass through, the scale of the city is not small, and the city wall is more than one zhang high, which is a bit like a medium city.

As soon as the defenders opened the city gate, they saw hundreds of 'remnants of the defeated brigade' pouring in, all dressed in rags and stained with blood, and at a glance they knew that they had just gone through a tragic battle.

Seeing this, many of the defenders couldn't help but ask, "Have you seen the Gaochang people?" Are they awesome? Where is it now? ”

As he was talking, the hundreds of people who had just come in suddenly made a noise, and everyone drew their weapons and slashed at the surrounding defenders. The goalkeeper was stunned for a moment, and then he realized that this must be a conspiracy of Gaochang people. He was just about to shout, but he didn't know that the horizontal knife in Li Wei's hand had slashed silently, easily cutting his throat.

Li Wei raised the bloody horizontal knife and roared: "Kill me!" ”

Then he instigated his mount and rushed forward like a sharp knife. More than 300 horsemen behind him also brandished their sabers and rushed forward, and more than 300 horsemen engulfed the panicked defenders like a whirlwind, and then continued to kill the dozens of defenders who heard the sound.

Li Wei slashed down a defender with a knife, looked around, and found that there were no defenders near the city gate, so he raised his horizontal knife and shouted: "Leave a hundred people to meet the rear army, and the rest will rush inside with me!" ”

After speaking, Li Wei kicked the horse's belly, the mount neighed, and the four hooves flew away, and more than 200 horsemen followed behind, and more than 200 sabers were in the cold light, and they kept beating under the light of the torches.
