Although Qingwei has been given the task of "assassination", this does not mean that this war can be solved in this way.

Chu Tianya believes that first, Qingwei has never performed this kind of task, and it is difficult to say whether he can succeed; Second, even if Jiao Wentong and Bai Xu were successfully assassinated, the outcome of the war was not completely decided. After all, the ultimate goal of the red side is not to kill the enemy commander, but to defend Xiaocangshan and Taiyuan. Killing the enemy commander is just to increase the chances of victory, not the ultimate goal.

In other words, war still has to rely on the contest of troops, fighting with knives and guns, and conducting an all-round contest in terms of strategy and tactics. The dispatch of the Qingwei was just a "special operation" tactic. Whether it will affect the direction of the strategy and catalyze the outcome of victory or defeat is still unknown. Before Qingwei succeeds, we can't be overly optimistic, and we still have to prepare for the worst.

That is a face-to-face military contest.

Although there are no three armed forces of the navy, the army, and the air force now, in Chu Tianya's view, this exercise is also a three-dimensional and all-round operation. From the marshal commander to every pawn, they all need to play their roles well and need to cooperate with their hearts.

How did the old man assign tasks to arrange actions, Chu Tianya didn't ask. As the supreme commander of the battlefield, what Chu Tianya has to do is strategic deployment. As for how the tactics are executed, it is a matter for the people below. All he wanted was a result.

In the first operation, Qingwei dispatched nine people.

The old man also knew the importance of this first operation, so he went out himself. The three people left behind are Xiao Linglong, Xiaofei and Liuhe.

Xiao Fei and Liuhe are now the lord's "personal guards", and they will not leave until they have to. As for Xiao Linglong, everyone knows it. On the surface, she is one of the Qingwei and the leader of the cottage, but her more important identity now is the wife of the lord.

Qingwei set off.

Chu Tianya's mood didn't relax much. He continued to study the march map, guessing where Jiao Wentong and Bai Xu would tear the breakthrough from. Attacking head-on is definitely not a white style. After all, it is a drill, and it is unrealistic for you to ask Xue Yu to bring a large group of screaming Qingyun slashing infantry to attack the city head-on and destroy the city. If you really want to fight, will the rolling stone and simmer in the hands of the soldiers guarding the village be smashed or not? What if you really want to smash a piece to death?

What's more, before the exercise began, Jiao Wentong and Bai Xu were already clear about their task, that is, to try their best to tear apart the defense line of Xiaocangshan by all kinds of surprise attacks and surprise attacks. This does not include a frontal onslaught. Because even if the cavalry of the Jin Kingdom came, they would not do such a stupid thing. Wanyan Zonghan was as fine as a thousand-year-old demon, would he let his cavalry dismount and run into the mountains and forests where they walked crookedly, to attack these fortifications full of rolling stones, skulls, bows and arrows?

If he had done that, he would not have survived to this day, and it would be even more impossible for him to still be in charge of the military power of the Jin State. In the last Taiyuan battle, in the final analysis, he had no choice but to attack the city, which was the next strategy.

In Chu Tianya's mind, the image of the Black Army was getting closer and closer to the Golden Soldier. The swiftness and courage of Jiao Wentong and Xiao Cai, and the cunning and resourcefulness of Bai Xu, combined with the Jin cavalry led by Wanyan Zonghan, are like the cavalry of the Jin State. The Black Army is even more difficult to deal with than the Jin State cavalry, because there are infantry generals like Xue Yu and Liang Xing among them, and the Qingyun Slash led by them is all the elite troops of Xishan, and it is even much stronger than the half-finished Qingyun Slash and Qixingzhai infantry in Chu Tianya's hand.

The advantage of infantry lies in mountain battles and sieges, which are things that Wanyan Zonghan does not have!

It's really me who is invincible, and I have enemies.

Chu Tianya thought about it, and now he really doesn't have many advantages in his hands, one is the fortifications of Xiaocangshan and the city of Taiyuan, which is a geographical advantage; Second, it is Qingwei.

There really isn't anything else. From generals to soldiers, to strategy and momentum, it is all Black who has the advantage of attacking.

……

Xiao Linglong looked at Chu Tianya's stern appearance, and couldn't help but recall that last winter, the two of them led the military patrol together to fight fires in Taiyuan City. At that time, the battle would start at any time, and the Sifang City Gate would be in danger at any time. It's really on call around the clock, and I don't dare to take off my clothes when I sleep, and sometimes I fall asleep with a knife and gun after only half chewing a mouthful of dry food.

Thinking of this, Xiao Linglong couldn't help but smile slightly, and said in her heart, such a sword mountain and sea of fire have come over, what is this exercise in front of you?

She didn't want to see Chu Tianya so nervous and tired. Whether he is a small military patrol or the lord of more than 100,000 people, it is the same in her eyes.

So she stepped forward and said, "Tianya, rest for a while!" ”

Chu Tianya was fully engaged, he didn't pay attention to what Xiao Linglong said, and continued to stare at the map completely unmoved, his fingers still geosturing on it.

Xiao Fei on the side hurriedly gave Xiao Linglong a look, signaling her not to squeak and disturb her. Liuhe is not moving.

Seeing that Chu Tianya didn't react at all, Xiao Linglong didn't squeak anymore, and stood aside and watched quietly.

Long.

About half an hour later, Chu Tianya suddenly turned his head to look at Xiao Linglong with an "ah", "What did you just say?" ”

Xiao Linglong and Xiao Fei were stunned, and then they all smiled gracefully.

"My lord, the county lord told you to rest for a while." Xiaofei said. After all, he has been following Chu Tianya for a long time, and he is not so restrained. Liuhe didn't dare to speak casually, he only remembered that he was Qingwei, and he didn't save zài when the lord didn't need it, which was an important principle in his mind.

"Oh, let's take a break!" Chu Tianya smiled self-deprecatingly, stretched his waist and walked to the big chair and sat down, and smiled at Xiao Linglong and said, "I was too absorbed just now." ”

Xiao Linglong didn't care, poured him a glass of water, and then stood aside silently.

Xiao Fei has always been clever and gave Liuhe a look. The two of them retreated to the tent and acted as the door god.

"Heh, this kid went on a trip to Tianshu Peak, and he is much more clever." Chu Tianya couldn't help laughing.

Xiao Linglong walked behind Chu Tianya, uncovered his collar and pressed his neck for him.

Extremely tight.

Xiao Linglong's heart was sour for a while, this was the same as when he was in the bloody battle in Taiyuan, Chu Tianya's nerves were tense all the time, and the flesh on his scalp, neck and shoulders couldn't be pulled with all his might.

"Isn't it just a drill, isn't it?" Xiao Linglong said softly.

Chu Tianya heard the resentment and sadness in her voice, touched her hand with a smile, and said, "In my opinion, it is the real war." Do you know how much I want to gain a little experience before the golden dog invades south again? To be honest, I'm even more nervous now than I was when I was guarding Taiyuan. At that time, I was just a small military patrolman, with little responsibility and little pressure, although I was also playing with my life, but I felt completely different. Now I can understand why Wang Yu stayed in the city for seven or eight days and didn't come down. He just wanted to rest, and as soon as his eyes were closed, his mind was full of the city's grain and grass and the golden soldiers attacking the city. ”

"You know that, too? How did Wang Dutong die in the end? Xiao Linglong was a little annoyed, pulled the back of his neck twice, and asked himself: "His old man is tired to death!" Do you want to learn from him? ”

Chu Tianya grinned in pain, and smirked at the same time.

At this moment, there is no lord and no subordinates, only a pair of lovers.

Although he was very nervous and tired, with Xiao Linglong by his side, Chu Tianya felt that he could persevere no matter how hard and tired he was.

People are so strange, and sometimes it's really to say that for the sake of the country, for the nation, and for the life and death of tens of thousands of brothers. Having the woman you love by your side is motivation.

Chu Tianya is also a human being, and he has not yet reached the realm of not eating the fireworks of the world and transcending the seven emotions and six desires.

"Flying fox, when the ice and snow on the Jinci River melt next spring, we will get married, shall we?" Chu Tianya held her hand and kissed her lightly.

Xiao Linglong sighed softly.

Of course, she knew why Chu Tianya set the wedding date at that time.

When the ice and snow melt in the spring of next year, if there is a war in Taiyuan in the south, it should be over at that time. If both of them were still alive at that time, then they would have married.

"Why, you don't want to marry me?" Chu Tianya smiled innocently.

Xiao Linglong gently didn't speak, she rarely showed such a coquettish appearance, just as Chu Tianya rarely smiled so innocently.

"Hey, hey!" Chu Tianya smiled even more, and grabbed Xiao Linglong's hand tighter, "I'm the king of the mountain now, I can't help but disagree!" -- It's so decided, when the ice and snow melt in the Jin Temple next spring, I will officially marry you and be my wife! ”

Xiao Linglong didn't speak, just smiled coquettishly, and let him grasp his hand, grasping tightly. Although Chu Tianya didn't see her current expression, she knew that Chu Tianya must understand her current mood.

The eyes and expressions between lovers can be understood by both parties, not to mention that Xiao Linglong is also holding his hand tightly now.

If you have a heart, that's enough.

"Will you sleep for a while?" Xiao Linglong opened her mouth to speak, but there was a little crying in her voice.

Chu Tianya, who was originally with his eyes closed, suddenly woke up, opened his eyes, and pulled her in front of him, "What's wrong with you?" ”

"It's fine." Xiao Linglong turned her face away and closed her eyes, but tears rolled down very uncontrollably.

Chu Tianya stood up in astonishment, grabbed her shoulders with both hands, and said softly, "Flying fox, did I say something wrong?" ”

"Nope." Xiao Linglong broke free and turned around with her heart.

Chu Tianya was a little stunned for a while. He really didn't understand why Xiao Linglong suddenly cried.

"Report-" Anu's loud voice suddenly came from outside the tent.

It seems that there is a heavy dà military situation.

Xiao Linglong hurriedly wiped her face, "I'll go out for a while." ”

With that, he walked through the back door of the tent and avoided Anu.

Chu Tianya looked at her deeply, and he didn't want to ask much for a while, so he sat on the big chair, "Come in." ”

Anu strode in and hugged his fists, "Report to the lord, there is an urgent report from the army in front of Ma Kuan." ”

"Bring it."

Chu Tianya hurriedly opened it and looked at it, it turned out that it was Ma Kuo who reported that Xue Yu, the general of the Black Army, had already led his headquarters and was facing Ma Kuo's camp. The two sides were only three miles apart, and if they didn't finish a surprise attack, the cavalry would be able to kill them.

That is, the black army bullied the Red Army and did not have outstanding cavalry as the main battle force, so they dared to go down like this. Just like when Wanyan Zonghan was besieging Taiyuan, he built the camp very close to Taiyuan City, and he was not afraid that the infantry in Taiyuan would come out to end his lair. It is a fact that no matter how fast the infantry runs, they cannot catch up with the horses that run easily.

But Xue Yu just went to the village, and did not come to challenge or spy on the military situation. Moreover, Xue Yuxia is still a garrison, the gate of the village is full of bows and crossbows and horses, and patrols day and night to prevent the Red Army from attacking the camp.

Although it is not possible to fight head-to-head, the tactical style of "attacking the camp in the middle of the night" is very effective. As long as you are unprepared, one side will make an effective night attack and the other side will lose.

Chu Tianya read this military report, and his nerves, which had just relaxed a little, tensed up again, and he kept pondering: Jiao Wentong and Bai Xu, what does this mean? It stands to reason that they are the attackers, and since there is a situation in which the soldiers and horses have opened a fight, they should have a little movement, and they should send Xue Yu to challenge them, or a large group of soldiers and horses will gather together and concentrate their forces to suppress and attack the same camp, in order to tear open the breakthrough.

But now Xue Yu is in a defensive position, and he has no intention of attacking at all.

Chu Tianya hadn't figured it out yet, and immediately two military reports were delivered at the same time, and Fu Xuan and Liu Ze, the two infantry leaders, reported at the same time that the black army generals Wang Xun and Liang Xing each led their men and horses to face their village, and the situation was the same as Xue Yu's, it was all on the defensive and there was no frame to attack.

Chu Tianya's head suddenly became bigger, and he opened his mouth and scolded, "White-haired fox, what do you kid want to do?!" ――The Jin soldiers who came to attack from afar are looking for a quick victory, will they go down to the village like you,! ”

As soon as he finished scolding, Chu Tianya's heart suddenly lit up, like a person who was rushing forward and was suddenly hit by something, folded ninety degrees, and ran towards the other side again.

"The rules of the exercise stipulate that the black army must attack, but who stipulates that the golden soldiers must attack?" A bright light flashed in Chu Tianya's mind, "Didn't Yan Zonghan use the 'lock the city' tactic against Taiyuan at the beginning, the purpose was to trap Taiyuan to death, so that Taiyuan City would run out of ammunition and food and eat people, and chaos without a fight?" -- At that time we still had a city, but now we are in the wilderness. If the Jin soldiers used the same lock-up tactics, these eight camps would be much more difficult to defend than a Taiyuan city. Because, no one knows when a camp will go a little wrong. As long as you make a little mistake, metaphorically take the initiative or take it lightly, Jiao Wentong, a fierce tiger on the battlefield, can seize this moment of laxity and succeed! ”

"Cow!" Chu Tianya couldn't help but praise the case, "White-haired fox, you cow!" ”

"This trick is to defend instead of attacking, guarding the plant and waiting for the rabbit, and it is really good! Your kid's head is too alive, you are simulating Zong Han to learn the lesson of the defeat in Taiyuan in the last battle, right? is not in a hurry to attack and expose his shortcomings that the battle line is too long, the lonely army is deep, the food and grass are scarce, and he is eager to win, but squats down and compares patience with me! - No, no, it's a comparison of patience with the commanders and even pawns of the eight battalions! Even if I'm not that prone to mistakes, who can guarantee that everyone below won't make mistakes? ”

"As long as one of the camps is breached, the entire defense system of Xiaocang Mountain will be disrupted! Or, if you drag down the eight camps and paralyze all of us, but you send a surprise army to attack behind me and cut off my grain route, or directly take Taiyuan, then you will be completely victorious! In short, even if your troops lie there and do not move, the initiative is still completely in your hands! ”

The more Chu Tianya thought about it, the more excited he became, and he walked back and forth in the handsome tent, muttering fragmented thoughts as he walked.

Anu looked at him, his two eyes round by round, and he didn't interject, but the expression on his face became more and more confused, and he muttered in his heart: What's wrong with the lord?

……

Xiao Linglong looked through the crack in the back curtain of the military tent and saw Chu Tianya talking to himself in the military tent like a psychopath, and couldn't help but laugh and scold "fool", and the tears that had just stopped flowed out again.

She didn't know why she had become so crying today. In the past, this was not the case.

Speaking of which, nothing special happened today. But she just couldn't help it.

Maybe it was Chu Tianya's sentence "The ice and snow of the Jin Temple will melt tomorrow spring", which reminded her of too many things.

In the homeland of Liao, ice and snow melt every spring; At that time, she was often walking with her father, brother, and Ada Anu on the way back from the bowl. Full of prey and galloping hounds, as well as vigorous and unrestrained Khitan hunting songs.

And the heavy snowfall last winter, the two of them returned from the military camp of the Shengjie army in the same horse. Later, the horse was lost, and Chu Tianya carried her; Then the horse came back, and he led the horse, like a bride going home, and sang a song that was worse than the ghost crying, what kind of flowering of Shandandan......

Then there is the bloody battle in Taiyuan, where people die every day, and no one knows when it will be their turn. It may be killed by a cold arrow at the head of the city, or it may be cut into meat sauce by a group of golden soldiers in a street battle, or it may be starved to death, or it may be scraped clean and eaten by a group of hungry and crazy people.

On that day, he really almost died in battle, and was besieged by a group of golden soldiers in front of the Star Picking Tower. Xiao Linglong saw it with her own eyes, but she couldn't kill the enemies around her to save her.

That feeling, she will never forget. It was real despair, accompanied by heart-rending pain.

When she killed all the enemies around her, he found that there was no one standing on Chu Tianya's side. At that time, she felt that she was already dead. But she saw again that Chu Tianya stood up with a bloodstained gun.

At that moment, she felt like she was in heaven again. She wanted to run over and hug him tightly, telling him never to be separated again, and to give everything she could, including her own life. But on second thought, well, he can't be so cheap - and let him try both hell and heaven!

So she pretended to be about to die.

Chu Tianya was really hysterical.

He kissed her on the lips fiercely for the first time, and roared loudly in a savage and domineering tone, saying "Lao Tzu loves you......

"Huh!" Xiao Linglong looked at Chu Tianya, who was pacing around in the military tent like an ant on a hot pot, and laughed.

Laughing and shedding tears.

Perhaps it was from that moment that Xiao Linglong knew that she would always be conquered by this foolish man.

He had conquered himself without any fancy, bordering barbarism or stupidity.

"Next spring, when the ice and snow melt at the Jin Temple, I will be your bride." Xiao Linglong whispered softly, "From now on, I am no longer the Flying Fox County Lord of the Liao Kingdom, no longer anyone's enemy and whose old love, but your woman." Maybe you are destined to belong to countless people, and even to a country, a nation, or an era. But I'm yours alone! ”
