Chapter Seventy-Six: Brave into the Great Marshal Camp

The plan to assassinate Zhang Jingda is actually quite risky.

He Daxian wanted Zhang Jingda's head, not because he hated Zhang Jingda. Grievances and grievances between mortals, where would He Daxian care, just like the ant nest under the big tree in your yard, would you care about which ant to be the king?

Killing Zhang Jingda is only a means, not an end.

The purpose was to reunite the 50,000 Tang troops and truly form an effective counterweight to the Khitans.

If Yerod didn't react and was unwilling to retreat immediately, then the rest would look good.

The best result is that Li Congke, Zhao Dejun and Zhao Yanshou three rescue troops arrived, and He Daxian then got the Shuozhou soldiers from behind, sealed the Yanmen Pass, and cut off the retreat of the Khitans, which is equivalent to surrounding this Khitan army, and everyone closed the door and beat the dogs together.

What is the benefit of taking out this elite Khitan army?

Then the benefits are too great. Didn't Li Congke want to issue Zhao Ping a "Four-Sided Robbery Permit"? The Khitan country has a vast territory and fertile land, since the main Khitan force has suffered a heavy setback, He Daxian was ordered to pull up a brigade to the north to plunder, it is really not too cool.

Lu Min'er and Shan Wu had arrived near Taiyuan the morning before.

The Khitan 50,000 iron cavalry surrounded the 50,000 Tang Army, not the imaginary regimental encirclement, forming an impenetrable encirclement.

The Khitan army just stayed on the sidelines and sent scouts to monitor the Tang army.

This is the advantage of the all-cavalry units of the Khitans.

Do you want to escape with a small force? As soon as the small army breaks away from the large army, the Khitan cavalry will immediately chase after you, and a few sprints will be eaten by people as meat.

Do you want to run away with a large army? Dare to move? Dare to abandon defensive positions and let large forces march together? Then you're welcome, the Khitans will naturally go out with their whole army.

The 50,000 Tang troops who left the defensive position had no evidence in the vast wilderness, and the Khitan heavy cavalry brigade repeatedly risked death to charge, and the Tang army was very likely to collapse at the first touch.

You say you're coming to march at night? The small army took advantage of the darkness to run away quietly, and people didn't care about you, and then chased after it at dawn, anyway, there were 1,000 or hundreds of people, and they really couldn't catch up, so if they escaped, they didn't care.

If you run away with all your army marching at night? That's stupid.

The Khitans don't need many people at all, just send a few hundred people to shoot a few rounds of arrows, and in the vast darkness of the night, your large army tramples on each other and doesn't know how many people will be trampled to death. The most terrible thing is that your organization is completely messed up, a pile of hundreds of people, a pile of one or two thousand people, each scattered, each suspicious, and there is not even a formation.

To the point where the generals do not know the soldiers, and the soldiers do not know the generals, it is a desperate situation. When the day dawned, the cavalry of the Khitan brigade was dispatched and eliminated one by one, as easily as chopping vegetables and cutting melons.

Therefore, in the vicinity of Jin'an Dazhai, where 50,000 Tang troops are shrinking, except for the Khitan scouts and Tang army scouts who appear from time to time, they are actually empty, which makes it easy for Shan Wu and Lu Min'er to infiltrate the Tang army.

When I had just crossed the mountain, it was still in the morning, and when I looked at it from the mountainside, the two armies faced each other on the vast plain, like the footprints of a big foot on the beach. The Tang military camp was divided into two large camps close to each other in the front and back, and the Khitans were backed by Taiyuan City, like five toes, divided into five slightly smaller cavalry battalions, a little far away from the Tang army's position, surrounded by an arc.

In addition to the sporadic reconnaissance cavalry running around, the Khitan battalion also sprang out from time to time with a cavalry contingent of hundreds or thousands of people, and went in all directions alone.

These are the troops who went out to gather military rations.

The fart and fart team of the Zhenwu Army, according to General Zhao's arrangement, designated Shan Wu to lead the team, but it was Lu Min'er who carried out the assassination mission, and the others were all escorting and defending this mysterious little killer.

Therefore, as soon as she got on the road, Lu Min'er said to Shan Wu: "You all listen to me, and you can do whatever I say." ”

Well, anyway, Lu Min'er bullied Shan Wu, and she was used to bullying for a long time, and Shan Wu was afraid when she saw her with her hands on her waist and her spirit.

Girls really bully people, it's really a lot of tricks, it's impossible to prevent, and the worst thing is that there is no need for any reason.

There's no way, Shan Wu has excellent talent, and now the "Jianxin True Scripture" has been practiced to the peak of the fourth level, and the "Tempest Thunderbolt Knife Method" has also been practiced to the seventh level according to the tenth-level standard. In the case of cavalry combat, because people are small and have little strength, even if they fight with the former Captain Huang Qiang, they may not be able to fight, but the close foot combat is very powerful, the knife shadow is rolling, the knife is fast and fierce, and more than a dozen ordinary soldiers can't get close to him at all, and Huang Zhi and Du Bin can fight against two people with great strength, and they can also fight into a draw one against two.

It's just a pity that Lu Min'er is more talented than him, everyone else is fighting, she and Cicada are hiding in the tent and practicing every day, even when they accompany Lord Zhao to pretend to be forced in the study. It is said that cutting lantern flowers, adding lamp oil, grinding ink, and boiling tea to make tea are actually a kind of training, which is very strange, but it is really effective.

Up to now, Lu Min'er's "Jianxin True Scripture" has been practiced for almost a month, and she has practiced to the fifth-level intermediate level, far surpassing Shan Wu. "Secret Needle Assassin Technique" has also achieved a small success, moving like a ghost, and the shot is as fast as lightning, without a trace.

Others don't know her details, and she looks like a harmless little girl, but as long as Shan Wu finds Min'er looking at him with a smile, goosebumps will immediately rise all over her body.

Let's put it this way, if Min'er wants to pull Shan Wu's ears, it means that he will hold it, and the little adult Shan Wu, who is known as the invincible opponent in the hand-to-hand heads-up fighting army, has no way to dodge or block it, unless he is riding on a horse, as long as she is close to within three meters, it will be over.

"Sister, don't, don't pinch my ears, they're all red."

"Let you boil water, where is all that pushing?"

"We're halfway up the mountain, and it's easy to be found when we make a fire, ah, it hurts."

"You go and find a way, I don't drink raw water. Get lost! ”

With that, Min'er kicked Shan Wu down the hill, then turned around and leaned against the tree, comfortably took out a meat-filled rice ball from his arms and took two bites, smiled and watched Shan Wu roll along the slope a few times, and ran to scold the other soldiers for making a fire and boiling water.

I don't know why, Min'er is very low-key in front of everyone, but she is very happy to see Shan Wu, and she has to bully him several times a day, picking up her ears and kicking a few rolls, which is a daily essential subject. Once she took a bamboo pole to dry clothes, and went to Shan Wu with great interest and said that she wanted everyone to come and learn from each other, so frightened that Shan Wu's face turned green, and he nervously perfunctory a few sentences, looking for an opportunity to jump on the war horse and I don't know where to run.

After observing for a whole afternoon, he roughly figured out the rules of the Khitan army and the Tang army's reconnaissance and cavalry, and when the sky gradually darkened, Lu Min'er gave the order to set off.

They originally came out of Zhang Jingda's Tang Army troops, and they were very familiar with the habits of the troops, and they remembered the passwords and everything clearly.

A total of ten people and ten horsemen, came out of the mountain, in the dark dusk, according to the previous observation, after going down the mountain, intercepted two Khitan reconnaissance cavalry teams, and after shooting them directly, cut off the heads of six Khitans and hung them in front of the war horses, and rushed all the way into the main camp of the Tang army.

The morale of the Tang army camp was very low at this time, and when he saw ten cavalry archers wearing Tang army uniforms running outside, and saw the majestic appearance of several cavalrymen running in front, there were still a few Khitan heads hanging in front of the horses, indicating that these people were not easy to mess with, and they were already a little scared in preconceived ideas.

Plus it's only ten horses, let you in, can you still turn up the sky in the camp of tens of thousands of people?

"Heavenly King Cover the Tiger"

"Pagoda Town River Demon"

The password was right, and Shan Wu basically didn't slow down much, and rushed directly on their horses.

The first floor was the main camp gate, and it didn't take long to quickly run to the second gate, the gate of the Chinese military camp, and they were stopped by a captain guarding the door.

"Who's coming?"

"The Eastern Capital Secret Investigation Division, there is a secret order to send to Zhang Dashuai."

The one who spoke was a spitting bow shooter in his thirties, pretending to be the leader of the squad. It's just that the person is tall, with a full beard, and a standard Luoyang accent.

"Who is the herald?"

"Father-in-law Lu and Father-in-law Shan in the Yanying Palace."

The bold face archer in the lead stepped out of the way, revealing Lu Min'er and Shan Wu who were following him.

These two people are short in stature and have immature faces, although they are dressed in the outskirts of the Tang cavalry, but the collar is obviously turned out of the dark blue collar for the Tang Palace's chamberlain.

There's no way, who made the two of them too small, so they could only pretend to be eunuchs.

When Captain Tang saw it, he already believed ninety percent of it.

The atmosphere of the post-Tang Dynasty is like this, after all, it is still in the era of war and chaos, and there is basically no matter of eunuch dictatorship, and the general declaration of holy decrees is to send ministers, but if the emperor sends a secret decree, it is possible to send the secret investigation department to lead the eunuchs over. What's even more strange is that the eunuchs selected at the beginning of this year are all eunuchs of one emperor and one dynasty, Li Congke has just sat on the throne for less than three years, and the eunuchs in the palace are naturally all young teenage new eunuchs.

Captain Tang waved his hand and let them in.

The group of ten horsemen continued to move forward.

There is still one last camp gate in front that needs to be crossed, the camp of the Chinese army.
