vs 21 A night without a moon

It was the middle of June, and the night at the foot of the Tianshan Mountains was still very cool, and it was said that the night sky should be peaceful and peaceful only when it was full of stars, but this land was not peaceful.

Shortly after Lao Luo's military meeting, the soldiers of the garrison camp began to move first.

Although the camps of the Turks, Qarluq, and Dingyan armies were scattered, they were generally distributed along the Polo River in an arc triangle, and they were not far from each other, so they could watch and help each other.

The soldiers of the garrison camp pushed and pulled the side vans and rumbled forward in the dark, and their purpose was to form an advance camp - of course, it was a barricade composed of side vans, the road and the terrain had been surveyed long ago, and although it was dark all around, all the soldiers knew that there was a scout camp robe waiting there in some corner, and even not far behind them was the team of the cavalry school, and in case of an attack, those guys would only need a hundred or ten hours to rush there.

The location where they formed the barricades ranged from about a thousand to two thousand paces from the three camps, that is, a distance of almost a kilometer, which was an effective distance to protect against bed crossbows and small stone throwers, and even if the three powerful long-range weapons were able to reach the range, regardless of accuracy, they would not be able to deal with the heavy side panels of the vans.

At this time, whoever can have a remote-controlled drone aerial photography will see twenty or thirty torches sprinkled on the earth, the irregular triangle southwest side of the three camps, one by one fire points are parked there, countless figures are more than enough under the firelight, there are also horses' hooves or running movements in dark places, behind the stones, under the grass, there is a restless atmosphere everywhere.

The sound in the dark night can be transmitted far away, and naturally it cannot be hidden from the soldiers in the Sanbu camp, and the firelight in the distance is clearly visible, and the atmosphere in the Sanbu camp suddenly becomes tense.

"What do you say? That weird team is going to attack? Li Deming, who had not yet woken up from his sleep, asked in surprise, of course, his face and tone were not very good, even if he subconsciously knew that the situation was tense, it was inevitable that this kind of person would be normal.

"No, my lord, it's just that the front battalion reported that the torches not far in front of them were bright and noisy, and General Yeli Suming sent someone to say that those people were preparing to attack!" The guards responded with some trepidation, calling the king because not long ago, Li Deming was named the king of Xiping by the Khitans, and the prince of the oath is Li Deming's ambition, and the people around him will naturally understand what to do.

"Call Su Ming's men!" Sitting up, Li Deming's mind cleared up.

"I've seen the king!" A stout party member with shaved hair walked in and bowed to Li Deming.

"Chiguli? Tell me what's going on? The person who came, Li Deming, knew that it was Yeli Suming's personal entourage.

"Report to the king, the people of that strange team are forming a barricade not far from our front camp, and they look like they are about to attack, the general asked me to ask you what to do? Did you take the initiative to go out and beat them off guard? Chiguli relayed his general's question with a straight look.

“…… Did you General Su Ming send someone out to investigate? Li Deming didn't dare to make a hasty decision, through the communication with Mahmoud, as well as some observations during the day, he knew a little about the enemy in front of him, very weird, very tough, strange is their armor, camp and even the big ball floating in the air, strong is because of Mahmoud's introduction on the one hand, and his own observation - he is also a person who leads soldiers, and he can see at a glance what kind of soldiers are good soldiers.

"Back to the king, several of our camps have sent out two hundred-person teams, and before I come, there are only thirteen back to the camp!" Chiguli scratched the bare scalp on the top of his head, and didn't dare to say sloppily.

"Two hundred people went out, and only thirteen came back?!" Li Deming was a little shocked, from the second day he was stationed here, the sentinels who went out kept losing, but he didn't expect that there would be such a big loss, Yeli Suming was under the jurisdiction of a 10,000-person team, a total of five scattered camps, the loss of 200 people was not much, but what about other 10,000 people? Thinking of this, Li Deming hurriedly beckoned the guards, "Fu Gu Protrusion, send someone to ask a few other generals about the situation, quick!" Right away! ”

"Yes, King!" The guard at the door replied loudly.

"Chiguli, you go back to the camp immediately, pass my order to Su Ming, and the whole army is on alert, but you are not allowed to leave the camp, and you are not allowed to make any moves before dawn!" As the leader of the Dingyan Army, Li Deming followed his father Li Jiqian to participate in the war, and he had not experienced less defensive operations, like the current situation, the sky was dark, except that the camps could communicate with each other, but they didn't know anything about the situation on the periphery, and they were looking for death if they attacked rashly.

Chiguli immediately turned around and went back.

Li Deming couldn't sleep anymore, pacing back and forth in the tent, and after half a sound, "Did the Turks and Qarluqs report that they had come here?" ”

"No one is coming, Lord!" Li Deming's military system still follows the customs of Li Jiqian's era, and his guards can be called the elite of the army, wearing armor and wearing a Han dress, and the rules of action are also one-size-fits-all, far from being as casual as the tribal warriors of the party.

"Send someone to inform Mahmoud and Qadir Khan!" Li Deming thought that he couldn't sleep, and the two guys didn't want to sleep peacefully, he was restless in the tent, "Come on, help me put on armor!" ”

In the words of the Han people, it is said that as the main general, he must have calm every time there is a major event, and he can't walk around at night, but at least he can make an advance preparation, once there is a war, he will not be in a hurry.

Li Deming is not at peace here, Mahmoud and Yusuf. Qadir Khan was also not at peace.

Mahmoud was more miserable, he had just applied medicinal oil to his body, and as soon as the itching on his body had stopped, he was called out from the couch by his subordinates, "Damn, what tricks does this Luo Kaixian want to play?" Order all the camps to be on guard and not to attack! ”

His orders were the same as those of Li Deming's, and he had to be more careful after suffering a lot from Lao Luo, because according to the information he received, whether it was Herat or Mashhad, or even in the Damgan Valley, the descendants of the Tang people from the Sylvan Plain had become unpredictable, otherwise he would not have pulled in the Qarluq and the Dangxiang people to stop him.

In comparison, Yusuf. The people around Kadir Khan may be more comfortable, because Kadir Khan, who was dreaming of a beautiful woman in his arms, did not take the possible war to heart at all, and lay on the couch with his eyes closed and spoke, "Order all the camps to close their gates, and no one shall move!" Naturally, there are Turks and party members in the war! ”

Although this guy who relied on his scheming to achieve the position of Khan did not understand warfare, he knew how to use the power that could be used around him, and the camp arranged by his troops happened to be close to the Polo River, with the natural barrier of the river, and he was not worried that his side would become the first target to be attacked.

Faced with the possibility of being harassed, the commanders of the three departments unanimously chose conservative tactics, can they be said to be smart or stupid?

Or are all stupid people in this time and space except for Lao Luo? It is obviously impossible, it can only be said that it is inevitable under the mistakes of the sun, and their choice will not see the result until the end of the war.

Of course, there was also a different person, and when it was close to dawn, Lao Luo sat in the tent, waiting for the reports from all sides.

"Nuralman, look at your notebook, has everyone returned?" I didn't receive the bad news, but everything went smoothly according to plan, and Lao Luo breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

"The general, plus the return of the captain of the garrison camp just now, has all been completed." Nuralman looked at the record in his hand and said with confusion in his eyes.

"Good!" Lao Luo got up from his couch, "Alki, give the order to go down, the cavalry school is on guard in 1789, and the 23456 and the scout battalion will start attacking!" The men of the garrison are stationed, and they are not allowed to move! ”

"Yes, Lord!" Alki said yes and turned to make an announcement.

Nuralman stood behind Lao Luo with a puzzled face, "General, shouldn't you let everyone rest, I haven't rested all night." ”

"Don't understand?" Lao Luo glanced back at the young clerk, taking advantage of the fact that he was still free, it would not delay things if he said a few words to this kid, and it could be regarded as cultivating talents, "You see that our people are not resting, you know?" The guys on the other side certainly didn't sleep either! ”

"Why...... Ah, I see......" Nuralman asked first, and then figured it out.

"That's right, our people are stationed not far away, can they not worry? And at this time the attack happened to be a surprise, understand the word, right? "Lao Luo is still very patient with cultivating the people around him, although this Nural Man is an Arab, he is not the kind of believer who is brainwashed by religion, of course, this is directly related to his uncle El Hessin.

"Surprise" means to exceed the expectations of others...... That's what it means, right? Do you mean that the attack at this time was exactly what the Turks expected? Nuralman said in a serious mixture of Chinese and Arabic.

"That's right! It's been a busy night, and I've listened to it in the enemy's camp over there, and even you just said that people should take a break, so what will those people who have listened to the movement of the night think? "When it comes to analyzing the psychology of the battlefield, Lao Luo said in more detail, there is rarely a situation of technological suppression in the era of cold weapons, and most of the time the war is a psychological confrontation.

"But now everyone is tired, will they ......" Seeing that Lao Luo was interested in answering the question, Nuralman simply continued to ask.

"Ha, let your kid exercise, always lazy!" Lao Luo waved his hand and patted the young Arab, and when he saw the latter staggering, he continued: "Do you think everyone is the same as you?" It's going to be a nerd like your uncle, and those guys have to train every day, and they won't be able to sleep even if they fall to sleep...... Just launch an attack, and the person is resting after cutting it! ”

What Lao Luo said is not an exaggeration, because the diet is sufficient, and the soldiers of the cavalry school and the garrison battalion have been training almost in competition since the winter, and now although they dare not say that they are comparable to Lao Luo's physique, it is really not a thing to not sleep for a night.

As he spoke, several large fires flickered in the northeast direction.

"Did the attack start?" Nuralman exclaimed excitedly.

"That's right!" Old Rob noticed earlier than Nuralman that the place where the fire was shining should have started at the same time as the direction of the Turks and the Dangxiang.

Looking a little farther away, in addition to the bright fire, the sky farther away has begun to glow white.
