"Then let's prepare everything next and wait for the Tang Army to come?" Ashina asked suddenly, just thinking about quickly preparing to arrange the defense. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

"Don't be in a hurry, the more anxious you are, the easier it is to make mistakes, and now it should be Tang Jun who is in a hurry, not us." Zhao Deyan smiled mysteriously, without waiting for the two to open their mouths to ask, and then said: "The weather is getting colder, the roads are not smooth, the Tang army is thousands of miles deep, and their food cannot be guaranteed, so their mood for a decisive battle is even more urgent than ours, if they don't fight, it is more advantageous to confront our army like this, our army has adapted to the bad weather, even if it is snowy, it is not harmful, can the Tang army?" Can't you? Therefore, even if we consume them, we can exhaust them and consume them to death, not to mention that we continue to send troops to harass their food routes during the confrontation. ”

Looking at the two of them who gradually recovered, Zhao Deyan smiled and said: "I understand your feelings, but as a tribal leader, you are so frightened and anxious, how can you make the soldiers under your command feel at ease?" What's more, you don't understand the way of fighting in the Central Plains. The Central Plains marched and fought with less pleasure than the Turks. There are cattle and sheep, and logistics can be ignored. The Central Plains has always paid attention to the fact that the three armies have not moved, and the grain and grass go first. According to my estimates, although the Tang army gave the order to go out. But they still have to wait for the first batch of grain and grass to arrive. Wait for the assembly of the army before acting. With the drag of food and grass, their march will not be very fast. In the short term, they can't come. The top priority is to recuperate. Our tribesmen have just fought with Xue Yantuo and are running back and forth, so it's not too late for them to rest. However, the two of you will first select the strongest warriors in the tribe, and I plan to fight with them after the arrival of the Tang army, and break their morale, and then, things will be easy. ”

"As Mr. said."

Ashina Xiantu and Zhan'er suddenly heard the peace in their hearts, and they were also overjoyed, heads-up is the favorite of the Turks, and there is no shortage of warriors, so the two of them fully support.

There's a way to deal with it. Knowing that the war was still some time away, the two were not anxious. Eat and drink with Zhao Deyan with peace of mind.

It wasn't until late at night that they had a bit of a hangover, and they returned to the camp with no arrangements.

After sending Ashina Xiantu and Erhu away, Zhao Deyan was a little apprehensive in his heart, he knew better than anyone else the strength of the Tang Dynasty. If there was no Turkic civil war, as the attacked side, it would not be easy for the Tang Dynasty to win by virtue of its defensive advantage. But now the Turks have greatly injured the vitality of the internal mess, and the rear has made Xue Yantuo uneasy, and the strength directly controlled by Jieli has dropped by about seventy percent compared with before the war, how can a crippled Turk be the opponent of the powerful Tang Dynasty? Even if he broke through Qin Feng's army, what about the other two roads? Zhao Deyan did not think that the other two route armies were the opponents of the two famous generals Li Jing and Li Ji.

With the current comprehensive strength of the Tang Army, it is not a difficult thing to deal with such a crippled Turk, the chances of victory of the Turks will not be very large, except for this battle, he is farther than Ashina first, and suddenly thinks further, the decline of the Turks has become a trend, and the manpower is irretrievable, and he is thinking about how to go in the future.

He knew the situation of the Tang Dynasty very well, and knew that the current Tang Dynasty could not afford to fight for a long time, as long as the stalemate of the war could be delayed, and when the logistical pressure of the Tang army was tight, they would retreat. And because of this battle, he has gained attention and reuse, and it is possible to become the leader of a tribe, with his own scheming, it is not difficult to develop it into a big tribe on the steppe, although the Turks are brave, but they have a congenital disadvantage in strategy, which is where Zhao Deyan can take advantage of. Jieli is already like that, in addition to being loyal to his tribe, the other leaders are already thinking about the discord in the face and heart, Zhao Deyan is a very utilitarian person, he has never been loyal to anyone, he only bends down to glory and interests, as early as when the Turks were divided, he was prepared, and also took advantage of the chaos to cultivate some henchmen, all of which are prepared for self-reliance in the future, in his heart, Jieli Khan is able to help him, and if he can't help himself.

He knew the Tang Dynasty's punishment methods for traitors, and he didn't want to die, let alone leave a stench for 10,000 years, so the only way out was to follow Jieli Khan all the way to the end, and then use Jieli to develop into a powerful force of his own.

When it develops to a certain extent, what does it matter if you surrender to the powerful Datang?

The way of checks and balances has always been the means used by the Central Plains Dynasty against foreign races, and it is impossible for them to support an enemy like the second Jieli, when the time comes, he can completely use the inherent practice of the Central Plains Dynasty, nominally loyal to the Tang Dynasty, but secretly self-developed.

Ambition, everyone has.

Driven by external conditions, ambition grows like weeds in spring.

This is how Zhao Deyan got to where he is today.

The higher the status of this person, the easier it is to change his mentality, and the more easily he is affected by all aspects, even a scholar like Zhao Deyan is no exception. Thinking back then, he was young and vigorous, and he only thought about learning to become a literary and martial artist and selling it to the emperor's family, and then used his own strategy to become a generation of military advisors of the Great Sui Dynasty, and then followed the great emperor to join the territory and expand the territory. But after learning art, it coincided with the chaos in the world, and the powerful Sui Dynasty, like the Great Qin Dynasty, which ruled the world, collapsed overnight and ceased to exist. So he wanted to serve a certain prince, but he was a young scholar and arrogant, so the ghost used him. In a fit of anger, learn from Zhuge Liang to plough in Taibai Mountain, concentrate on learning, and in the end, it was not any prince of the Central Plains who took the bait, but Jieli Khan, so he had a new idea: to help the powerful Jieli Khan, establish a strong feudal empire on the grassland, and then, wave his army to the south, eliminate the Tang Dynasty that had just been unified, and let Li Yuan, who despised him at the beginning, regret it for a lifetime, but he never thought that Jieli had failed, and the powerful Turks were going to be finished, at this time, his heart changed again. Since Jieli can't support Adou, then, he came out to do a career by himself, and he still has the time and energy to fight for qualifications with the tribes of the grassland in his forties.

However, Zhao Deyan still understands the truth that ambition requires strength to realize, and he has been waiting for the opportunity to lead the troops to the battle, trying to build a strong reputation, and then, with fame, to recruit talents. Now, the opportunity is there, and it's up to us to see what the next battle will be. If he wins, he will become a veritable No. 2 and No. 3 in the Turkic and Jieli armies, and if he loses, all his ambitions and dreams will disappear. Therefore, on the way south, he has been thinking about how to fight this battle.

Just when Ashina was suddenly asleep and suddenly fell asleep, Zhao Deyan was constantly perfecting his strategy in his mind.

Unable to think of any flaws and loopholes in the plan, Zhao Deyan got up and wrote a letter to Jieli, expounding his views, reassuring Jieli, and telling Jieli to be careful of Li Jing and Li Ji, and suggested that Jieli Khan take advantage of the upcoming bad weather and the actual situation of insufficient logistics of the Tang Army to cross the two Tang troops and force the Tang Army to retreat.

The reason why Zhao Deyan tried his best to think about Jieli Khan was not because he was loyal, but because he knew that Jieli could not be defeated now, at least in this crisis, otherwise, everything would be over. After being busy, Zhao Deyan slept with confidence.

**********

Just when Zhao Deyan was self-righteous and fell asleep with a sweet dream, Qin Feng led the Shuofang soldiers and horses out of the Shuobei grassland, marching towards their camp at an even speed.

In the past year, Qin Feng's riding skills and physical strength of the soldiers have been extremely strict and even to the point of perversion, in his concept, all his Qin Feng's subordinates, even if they are foot soldiers, must have a certain level of riding, and be able to adapt to life and battle on horseback for a long time. In order to achieve this goal, Qin Feng would set aside a day every other week to practice the riding skills of all the soldiers, and a day to train the physical strength and endurance of the soldiers. Then come back to the field training every six months to adapt them to future wars, to adapt to the survival skills of various harsh environments, and to the team cohesion that must be possessed at any time and place.

This series of hardships was not in vain, even if there were 10,000 foot soldiers and 5,000 crossbowmen among the 40,000 soldiers, their marching speed was still extremely fast.

This march, due to the lack of drag from the logistics team, reached a speed of five hundred in three days and one thousand in six days, which made Cheng Yanjin, the deputy and veteran of the battlefield, breathtaking, especially the strict military discipline that ordered the ban, and made the old demon king see the charm of military discipline and the importance of military discipline. He had already made up his mind in his heart that he would arrest Jin Wuwei's military discipline after he went back, otherwise, in the next competition, he would have to fall to the level of the middle and lower reaches, and he would not be able to escape Li Shimin's preaching. Cheng Yanjin is rough, but not arrogant, people who are familiar with him know that he is a very kind person, although his mouth is not forgiving, but he is always thinking about people. Such a person would not hold the shelf of qualifications and seniors, so along the way, he was like an apprentice, and he took away a lot of Qin Feng's skills. A senior still loves to learn so much, which also stimulates the desire of a group of young generals to learn. In just a few days, there is also something to be gained.

As for the biggest gain, it is not Cheng Biting Jin. is not a group of generals, but Qin Feng, who is like an instructor. Cheng Biting Jin's experience of fighting for half a lifetime, as well as his experience with Qin Qiong along the way, all kinds of wars, all kinds of dangers, are all living teaching materials, these are the knowledge that Qin Feng lacks the most at the moment, and it is also common sense that can't be learned from books.
