Chapter 39: Roast Lamb

Everyone was thinking that Tang Hua was leisurely drinking tea, watching them use their brains. It took a long time for the pen to www.biquge.info to hear Tian Chou say, "I know the lord." ”

Tian Chou was just about to say something, but Tang Hua smiled and said: "Zitai, you will talk about it later, let them think more about it now, save them from making trouble with me all day long, and now I will torture them too." ”

After another long time, Tang Hua saw that they all looked helpless, and only then did he let Tian Chou say what he thought.

Tian Chou said: "Lord, do you mean to take advantage of the fact that the sky is dry on the prairie now, the grass is also dead, and the night wind on the prairie is strong, go to the prairie to light a fire, so that you can roast mutton and eat it." ”

Tang Hua said with a smile: "Zitai is right, it's just that we have to plan a little better, burn the fire a little bigger, and the area is a little wider, but the soldiers who can't let us go to light the fire are in danger of their lives, so a dish should be enough for the Xianbei people to eat!" When the snow comes, we will give him another dance, which is called snowflake dancing, so I don't think it is good that the Xianbei tribe of his Tuoba tribe can survive. Study the details now and act tonight. ”

After hearing this, Zhang Liao said: "Such a simple plan, why didn't I think of it?" ”

After hearing this, Sima Lang smiled and said, "Wen Yuan, the simpler the thing, the less difficult it is for people to think of it. Don't feel inferior, I guess the lord has been meditating for a long time. It's just that I still don't know anything about what snowflakes are flying, so I don't know if you can figure it out. ”

Everyone shook their heads.

Tang Hua said: "It can't be implemented now, it will take a while, of course, no matter who you are, you shouldn't be able to come up with this plan." It may be whimsical to you, as it contains a lot of things that you don't understand, and I've got you pretty much the equipment in place. ”

Sima Lang said: "Lord, what you are talking about are those small wooden blocks produced by the furniture factory, and what kind of dog cars, I have been to see them, those things will not be of any use, I am now wondering if the lord has a problem with his head, what are those things called cars, there are no wheels, just a few wooden boards." ”

Tang Hua glared at Sima Lang and said, "Boda, you have a problem with your head, but mine doesn't." ”

Zhao Yun said: "Lord, you can give an order." ”

Tang Hua said: "This time, Zilong and Wen Yuan, who went to light the fire, each led a thousand flying snake troops to carry it out, and you should choose strong soldiers, one person and three horsemen, march at night, rest in the designated position during the day, and avoid the reconnaissance eagles of the pioneering army." One of you will make a detour from the left and the other from the right, but you must stay away from the settlement of the Xianbei tribe, and when you reach the designated location, you can just set fire. You must evacuate while setting fires, and you must not let the fire burn yourself, and use the night to set fires is windy and conducive to your evacuation.

As for the slaughter of the Tartars, you don't have to worry about it, you just have to set fire to it and withdraw safely, and you're done. Junyi and I led 5,000 Flying Snake Army to ambush, and waited for the Xianbei Tartars of the Tuoba tribe to escape, at that time, I wanted to see how much combat power the iron cavalry of the Xianbei tribe would have, and it was estimated that they would flee to the south, but they fled to the north but there was nothing, and they couldn't pass the winter, so they would definitely flee to the south. Of course, after your fire is lit, we will also light it, so that the fire will surround them all and roast the mutton, and what will happen to the iron riders who can escape from the fire. ”

Zhang Hedao: "Lord, then let's set off in more formations, it won't be with Wen Yuan and Zilong." ”

Tang Hua said: "We will leave tomorrow, and Zilong and Wenyuan will set off in the evening." The other two dogs should go with Zilong, you should be clear about the geography and landform, and the sunspot should go away with Wen, originally I wanted Zitai to go, but his body has not fully recovered. ”

Ergou and Heizi said: "It's the lord." ”

Tang Hua said: "Go ahead, you all go and prepare." ”

The next night, Tang Hua and Zhang He led the 5,000 Flying Snake Army to set off, and their task was to wipe out the escaped Xianbei Iron Cavalry as much as possible.

Before dawn, Tang Huajun also found a large forest to hide. Zhang He sent a large number of scouts to conduct all-round reconnaissance and search around.

The soldiers of Tang Hua's army hid in the forest and slept profusely, it was good to have a general by his side, and all the work of marching, stationing, and guarding was Zhang Heyi's chaos.

Tang Hua felt very relaxed and couldn't sleep. Tang Hua was worried that Zhao Yun and Zhang Liao would set fire to the army, worried that they would have an accident and be in trouble if they encountered the Tartar soldiers, after all, the soldiers in their hands were very limited.

After Zhang He came back after arranging everything, seeing Tang Hua's worried look, he said to Tang Hua: "Big brother, you don't have to worry, although Zilong and Wenyuan are dangerous, as long as they don't get too close to the enemy, even if the enemy finds them, they can safely retreat, and besides, the thousand flying snake soldiers under their command are not dry, and it is not easy to annihilate them all." ”

Tang Hua shook his head and said: "Junyi, last night I found that the wind direction seems to be a little wrong, how can the southwest wind blow, it is not a good thing for Wenyuan's arson team, they will all be overwhelmed by the fire, so Wenyuan's biggest problem is the threat of fire." And Zilong his arson team will not feel good, if it is expected to be a southeast wind, the enemies around him do not dare to chase him easily, after all, they are also afraid of being attacked by the fire, and the face is the southwest wind, then the Xianbei tribe around him will definitely rise up to resist, maybe the Xiongnu next to him, the iron cavalry of the Xianbei tribe in Hexi will also come to step on a kick, then Zilong they will face the enemy's encirclement and interception, if this is the case, Zilong they will be dangerous. ”

After listening to Tang Hua's words, Zhang He thought for a while and said: "Lord, then it should be done yesterday, as soon as you say this, it seems that Zilong is really in trouble, Wenyuan and they should be able to escape from the sea of fire, after all, the fire is their own indulgence, they will be careful, Zilong is really not good to bear." ”

Tang Hua thought for a while and said: "Junyi, I think so, tomorrow night is the most critical, Zilong and Wenyuan will make an appointment to set fire to the third watch tonight." I thought about it again and again, since the wind direction has changed, we estimate that the Xianbei Iron Cavalry who escaped here will not be as many as originally expected, it is better for you to lead 3,000 Flying Snake Army to support Zilong overnight tonight, and I will lead 2,000 Flying Snake Army to ambush here. ”

After hearing this, Zhang He shook his head and said: "Lord, then there are only 2,000 people around you who are afraid that it is too dangerous, although the Xianbei iron cavalry who escaped are all frightened, but they will definitely try their best to break through in order to survive, their potential will be stimulated, their strength cannot be underestimated, they know that there is only one way to die, and they now know that our army does not accept surrender." ”

Tang Hua smiled and said: "It's not a big problem, I think I can handle it, it's important that you go to rescue Zilong." ”

Zhang He thought for a while and said: "Okay, but the lord you have to be very careful, if the situation is not good, you have to evacuate immediately, even if you can't clean up the tartars this time, then as long as we are still here, we will have the opportunity to clean them up again." ”

At the beginning of the first shift, Zhang He led 3,000 Flying Snake Army to support Zhao Yunbu, while Tang Hua continued to advance north with the remaining 2,000 Flying Snake Army. On the day of the third watch, Tang Hua's troops also arrived at the designated position, and after Tang Hua thought about it again, he decided to abandon the plan to intercept the Xianbei iron cavalry.

Tang Hua was still worried that Zhao Yun would be in great trouble, although Zhang He led his troops to support. Tang Hua is still not very relieved, Tang Hua is not willing to lose a peerless general like Zhao Yun, then Tang Hua will lose a lot, Tang Hua is willing to let the Tartars live, rather than lose a general like Zhao Yun, the Tartars can be eliminated in the future, Zhao Yun is gone, so where can Tang Hua go to find it.

Tang Hua changed his plan to block the Xianbei Iron Cavalry into a magnified fire to roast the Tartars, Tang Hua's army set fire to more than ten miles in about an hour, and then Tang Hua also led the army to advance in the direction of Zhao Yun.

Let's talk about Zhao Yun, he led a thousand Flying Snake Army to advance at night, evaded the reconnaissance eagles of the Tuoba Department during the day, and arrived at the designated position on the night of the third day.

En route. Zhao Yun found that the wind direction had changed, and Zhao Yun still carried out the original plan in order to ensure the smooth implementation of the battle plan. He immediately asked the soldiers to set the fire, and less than two hours after the arson, he found that the Xianbei iron cavalry was rushing towards him.

Zhao Yun asked the soldiers to continue the arson while leading the soldiers to evacuate.

After dawn, the Xianbei tribe in the Shuofang area also sent iron cavalry to kill Zhao Yunjun's generals, and the Tartars who were originally stationed in Jiuyuan and Yunzhong saw that someone was setting fire to the prairie, so they were mad. If there is no grass on the prairie, then how can the Tartars on the prairie such as the Xianbei tribe and the Xiongnu survive! Of course, they didn't know that the prairie was set on fire this year, and the place that was burned by the fire next year will definitely be green grass and shade, better than in previous years.

What the Tartars see now is a raging fire on the prairie, the fires within dozens of miles are connected, the flames are dozens of feet high, and under the impetus of the wind, the fire is getting bigger and bigger, and the dead branches and hay on the prairie are originally flammable. Now it's okay, in case of fire and wind, it's okay, and when it gets out of control, the whole prairie becomes a sea of fire.

All kinds of animals are also racing against the raging fire in order to survive, and those who run slower are immediately engulfed in the flames. The Xianbei tribe besieged by the fire was also frightened and panicked. In this case, the leader of the tribe and the patriarch have lost their past rights, and no one will listen to them, only desperately escaping from the sea of fire is the only hope, and what other cattle and sheep, and property are going to hell, life is gone, and what is the use of having other property.

After dawn, the Tartars knew that it was the soldiers of the Snake who were setting the fire, although they knew that the Snake was not targeting their tribe, but out of their feelings for the prairie, seeing the beautiful prairie burned, the Tartars all took the initiative to send troops to hunt down Zhao Yun's Flying Snake Army.

Now Zhao Yunjun is big-headed, there are chasing soldiers in the back, there are interceptions in front, and there are enemy troops rushing over on the side, the situation is very serious, and there is no danger that the whole army will be captured, and now the only way is to lead the soldiers to kill a bloody road and break out of the encirclement of the Xianbei iron cavalry, otherwise there will only be death on the battlefield, and the Xianbei iron cavalry that rushed to them is estimated to reach 40,000 or 50,000 people, and Zhao Yunbu only has 1,000 soldiers of the Flying Snake Army, and the disparity in strength is so great that even Sun Wu has no way to win in his lifetime.

In this situation, Zhao Yun's ability was truly demonstrated, and Zhao Yun shouted to the soldiers: "Brothers, are you afraid, do you have the courage to rush out of the Tartar encirclement with me?" ”

The soldiers of the Flying Snake Army under Zhao Yun also replied loudly: "Don't be afraid, we will follow the general closely." ”

Zhao Yun said loudly: "Okay, I will definitely take you out of the encirclement, as long as we rush out, the lord will definitely bring soldiers and horses to meet us." ”

After the soldiers listened to Zhao Yun's words, the soldiers' morale immediately doubled with confidence and full of fighting spirit.

Zhao Yun led a thousand soldiers of the Flying Snake Army, like an awl, to the Xianbei Iron Cavalry blocking in front of him.

Zhao Yun's silver spear is flying up and down, there will be no living beings within a radius of more than one zhang, some centurions and thousands of commanders of the Xianbei clan, I don't know how many died under Zhao Yun's spear. Seeing that the main general was so brave, the soldiers of the Thousand Snake Army under Zhao Yun followed closely behind Zhao Yunlong, and stabbed the saber and Changqiang in their hands into the enemy's chest.

Although Zhao Yun was very brave, there were too many Xianbei Iron Cavalry surrounding them now, there should be 30,000 or 40,000 people, and there were still a large number of enemy troops in the rear and flanks rushing towards Zhao Yun's troops.

Zhao Yun was covered in blood all over his body, and he didn't know if it was the blood of the enemy or his own. The soldiers under him were also like bloody men, and there were only five or six hundred soldiers behind Zhao Yun.

Zhao Yun led the soldiers to still fight, when he saw his soldiers besieged by the enemy, Zhao Yun would immediately turn back and kill the past, and rescue the besieged soldiers, which made the soldiers respect Zhao Yun a lot, the soldiers all put on a posture of looking at death as home, and the saber in their hands slashed at the enemy's chest, and the soldiers who fell off the war horse would use the weapon in their hands to cut the enemy's horse legs, cut the enemy's horse's back, and there was no one to retreat.

There was a strong sound of horses' hooves in the distance, estimated to be nearly 10,000 horsemen, and the soldiers beside Zhao Yun said that they were reinforcements, Zhao Yun looked up and saw that the banner with a fierce snake pattern was flying in the wind.

As soon as Zhao Yun saw that there was salvation now, he immediately said to his soldiers: "Brothers, our reinforcements are coming, and the **** Tartars are waiting to collect the corpses." ”

From afar, it is indeed Zhang He's army that came to support Zhao Yun, Zhang He's army is 3,000 horsemen, but each person is equipped with three horses, of course, it feels like there are nearly 10,000 cavalry to kill the generals.

At this time, the Xianbei Iron Cavalry also saw that Zhang He's army was killing behind his fart valley. It is also a headache for the Xianbei Iron Cavalry, if you want to turn around to face the battle, it is too late, if you don't turn around, it will also be death, the result of being unilaterally killed by the other party. They didn't dare to be careless in this situation, after all, they knew that they were dealing with the Snake Army now, not the army of the previous Han Dynasty, and if it was the cavalry of the original Han Dynasty, they would not take it seriously at all.

Now, in front of the fierce snake army, since the snake appeared on the prairie, the good life of the Xianbei people is over, and the nightmare has begun to attack the Xianbei people, and they are facing the slaughter of the snake army at any time. I don't know when the snake army will come, where it will come, the snake army is elusive, it is really a dragon to see the head but not the tail, come like the wind, go like the wind, the Xianbei Tartars have no way to take the snake army.

Zhang He saw that Zhao Yun was trapped, and led the three thousand Flying Snake Army to put on a prismatic formation and crashed into the back of the Xianbei clan.

And the Xianbei Iron Cavalry is turning around at this time, the whole formation is extremely chaotic, with the Tartar Iron Cavalry just turned around and was wiped by the soldiers led by Zhang He, some of them have not turned around, their heads have moved, and some of the Tartar Iron Cavalry can't turn around at all, and what is waiting for him must be the chief in the hands of Zhang He's soldiers. The gun penetrated from behind.

Zhang He's army was ramming into the enemy at high speed, and the enemy was entangled with Zhao Yunlong's soldiers at this time. Circling together, there is no speed, how can this withstand the high-speed impact of Zhang He's Flying Snake Army!

Zhang He's soldiers only need to raise the saber in their hands or raise the long qiang in their hands flat, and use the high-speed collision power of the war horse to penetrate or behead the Tartar iron knights in front.

Zhang He was slashing quickly, and when he saw Zhao Yun, he shouted loudly: "Zilong, you lead your soldiers to evacuate first, and I will come to intercept the enemy for you." ”
