Chapter 848: Please go into battle

There were only a few people left in the huge festival hall. Although Du Shiyi no longer mentioned what happened just now, there were still people under the outer torture rod who were not dead, and those movements passed through the open door into the festival hall, which naturally caused great pressure on some people. But Du Shiyi seemed to know what to do, and motioned to the generals to stand in front of the sand table in the upper left corner of the festival hall, and according to the battle report that Xie Zhi had just transmitted, he made various marks on the sand table.

Since he made this thing in Longyou, he also gave the craftsman to the Hexi Jiedu envoy Niu Xianke, who made a Hexi sand table from the goodness, and then recommended it to Li Yi. Therefore, because of its convenience and intuitiveness, such a sand table has become popular in Datang Dafang Town. But it can be said that Shuofang's sand table is the largest, because it not only includes many prefectures and counties in Guannei Province, but also the territories of the Turkic and Tiele tribes, and the mountains, rivers and deserts are all in it, which makes it clear at a glance.

And at this moment, in addition to Guo Ziyi, who is following Du Shiyi, there is also Fugu Huaien. Fugu Huai'en newly arrived in Shuofang, he was a nobody, but because today's events have become completely famous, everyone knows that Lu Dao is the eldest son of the hereditary Jin Wei Dudu, and he has just joined the army at the behest of his father.

Even so, Cao Xiangdong only glanced at this person at the beginning, and then withdrew his gaze without paying attention, concentrating on only talking about the war. Since he has already lost this battle, if Xie Zhi makes any more mistakes, he, the general of the strategy army, will be at the end!

"The Turkic Left Killer Bone Jieli is claiming to have 30,000 troops this time, but the water is very large, according to my estimates, it will definitely not exceed 15,000, and it may even only be 10,000 people. Because today's Dengli Khan is coerced to kill these two uncles on the left and on the right, and the strength of the vassal Turkic Qarluq Hui Pull out the secret tribes is also extraordinary, so the left kills this incident, one is tempting, and the other is Liwei, the scale cannot be too small, but it cannot be too big. According to Xie Zhijun's report, this time his troops were referring to Jiuyuan in Fengzhou, that is, the western surrendered city on the north bank of the Great River bore the brunt. Where Xie Zhi is now, this is here. ”

Cao Xiangdong used a long thin wooden stick to point a little at a distance of nearly two or three hundred miles southwest of Zhongshou City, and then said with a solemn face: "Although Xie Zhi led the army a few days ago, he was in a hurry and only rushed here, and there was a desert nearby, so the speed of travel was very likely to be further reduced. The soldiers and horses stationed in the surrendered city in the west are all elite, and the guards are also old and heavy, but they still need to beware of the enemy's deception. Therefore, since the marshal asked about the plan, I have to say that the Zhenwu army in the eastern surrendered city and the surrendered city in the middle will each send 2,000 people to rendezvous, and after the Turkic army is defeated, wait for the opportunity to hit the enemy's back, and then the enemy army will collapse. ”

After he finished speaking, a general immediately followed up and said: "What General Cao said is extremely true, if the Turks are defeated in this battle, they only need to question Dengli Khan in the middle of the court, and the Turks will definitely be in chaos at that time, and the original struggle for power will turn into a fire and merge, and there is no longer anything to fear!" ”

Today's Turks are far less than when the Mosi Khan and Vigha Khan were in power, which made the Tang border army vigilant and fearful, so many people feel that this view is reasonable. Du Shiyi also knew that Lu Dao only had to let the Turks suffer a big loss, and Shuo Fang would be able to keep peace for a few years in the future, but he still keenly smelled some unusual meanings.

You must know that in the middle and late reign of Viga Khan, there were basically very few battles with the Tang Dynasty, and most of the fights were against the Khitan and Xi people, or the tribes that once took refuge in the vassal Tang Dynasty. As for the Turkic tooth tent deliberately releasing all kinds of signals to some descendants, tempting them to defect to the Tang Dynasty and defect to the Turks, this is another matter. Even the battle in Yunzhou in the past was only caused by the insatiable greed of a few small Turkic tribes. And now that the situation of the Turks is much worse than before, how can the left killer who shared nearly half of the military power of the Turks with his brother dare to attack so arrogantly?

When today's son Li Longji treats foreign enemies, he has always had a tough attitude - Tubo fell to Guazhou, and as a result, he was beaten by Xiao Song, Li Yi and others and suffered heavy losses, and had to finally negotiate peace; Khitan can suddenly be so arrogant back then, Li Yi and Zhang Shouqi have won several battles, but now they have already been beheaded in Luoyang; On what basis did the Turks think that this rash provocation would not lead to a more aggressive counterattack and retaliation?

The meaning of several generals was almost exactly the same, and Fu Gu Huaien listened to it, and finally couldn't help but speak: "Marshal, why do you need to transfer the soldiers and horses of the surrendered city and the surrendered city in the east, just I will lead the men and horses back to Xiazhou, and call on the nomadic Zhuhu tribes here to send troops and horses, and thousands of horsemen can be gathered in a moment." Wouldn't it be the best of both worlds to avoid shaking the city defenses of the three surrendered cities, and at the same time to come and go like the wind and attack the enemy head-on? ”

Cao Xiangdong was originally annoyed that the fledgling Hu man of Fugu Huaien had ruined his own affairs, and at this moment he couldn't help but sneer: "It's too easy for the little general Fugu to say!" Even though the Servant Gu Department is indeed loyal to my majesty of the Tang Dynasty, among the Hu, many Hu chiefs are the first rats at both ends. Such a soldier may really be able to defeat the Turks, but what if they are bewitched and counterattacked? What's more, now that the enemy's trace has appeared, it is already too late to go to the various departments to send orders to gather troops and horses! ”

"It's too late, but it's not necessarily." At this time, a general behind Cao Xiangdong suddenly stroked his palm and said, "Great Shuai, didn't those Hu chiefs surnamed Zhaowu Jiu who lived in Shuofang just make up 3,000 soldiers and horses to send to Lingzhou for driving?" At the time of receiving the enemy, there were nearly 1,000 soldiers and horses in the headquarters led by General Fugu, and if this army of nearly 4,000 soldiers and horses was used well, it would not only be able to move the defenders of the three surrendered cities, but also echo with the guerrilla soldiers and horses under General Xie. The Turkic soldiers and horses seem to be menacing, but in fact, they are only fierce and inward-looking, the servant general is brave, and his subordinates are all elites who are one hundred and hundred, and it is not difficult to win more with less! ”

Cao Xiangdong heard the voice and knew that the person who was talking behind Lu Dao was his henchman, Chen Yong, another deputy general of the Jingluo Army, who was famous for his wisdom and calculation, and was his right-hand man like Xie Zhi. Sure enough, when he went to see Fugu Huai'en, he saw that the young Tiele man's eyes were shining, and he was clearly extremely moved. So, although this sudden turn of events was not in his pre-envision, he still quietly added a weight to it: "What Chen Yong said is not unnecessary. Jin Wei Du Du of the Fugu Department has always been loyal and brave, and now if the little general of Fugu can make great achievements just after joining the army, His Majesty will definitely reward the official and the knight! ”

"Dashuai ......" Fugu Huaien couldn't help but shout, and then realized how big the opportunity is, how big the risk is, you must know that those soldiers seem to be really strong, even the mounts are often equipped with two horses, and the military rations are also prepared, but they have just made it up, how can he command it well? But he didn't want to miss such a big opportunity, and when he saw Guo Ziyi beside him, he immediately had a thought.

"Commander, I have just joined the army, and I am inexperienced, so I am not worthy of this big responsibility. But as the generals say, if such a new force is used well, it is indeed unstoppable. I dare to ask for my life, why didn't the marshal order the vanguard to make General Guo Ziyi Guo lead this army? I'd like to be from Sasuke! ”

As soon as these words came out, whether it was Cao Xiangdong, Chen Yong, or other generals, they all sneered on their faces and hearts. Should it be said that the newborn calf is not afraid of tigers, or is it young and vigorous and loves to pit people? Du Shiyi's new official took office, and he was busy promoting his own people, although this servant Gu Huaien is brave, but his brain is really too bad, because of his earnestness, he actually involved Guo Ziyi! Whoever leads a miscellaneous army, how difficult is that?

Others sang and put forward this idea that sounded like the best of both worlds, Du Shiyi didn't know the intention of Lu Dao, and Fugu Huaien's invitation also made him sigh secretly, but listening to it, when he saw Guo Ziyi's expression and eyes, there was an indescribable eagerness to try, and he couldn't help but fall into hesitation.

If it happens, he can naturally lay the foundation in Shuofang in one fell swoop. But if it doesn't work, then the prestige and political achievements he has accumulated over the years will all collapse at once. He doesn't like to gamble, and this time it's not like the battle in Yunzhou back then, he has no choice but to choose to gamble. So, he only pondered for a moment before bowing his head and saying, "You go back first, and after an hour, the festival hall will gather the generals and decide on the dispatch of troops." ”

Cao Xiangdong and the others knew that Du Shiyi also had to consider it, so they bowed and retreated one by one. When only Guo Ziyi and Fugu Huaien were left, Du Shiyi asked Guo Ziyi, "Is Ziyi sure?" ”

There was no sound in front of people just now, but at this moment, Guo Ziyi immediately solemnly saluted: "The marshal has entrusted me to train these three thousand troops before, and now although it is said that he wants to rush into the army, it is not my boasting, although it is extremely dangerous this time, it is also an opportunity to train the army." More than 1,000 people in my department are veterans of my army over the years, and the soldiers and horses brought by General Fugu are indeed elite. The only thing to worry about is that the 3,000 soldiers are from more than a dozen tribes, and it is difficult to connect them together, and the dragons have no leader, so it is very difficult to pinch them together, but what if I don't take all of these people out of the city, but take some of them? ”

It has only been a short time since Fugu Huaien first arrived, and he is not familiar with Guo Ziyi at all, but he feels that since Du Shiyi is important, Guo Ziyi has been in Shuofang for many years, and he can be a little more sure of this person. Now that he heard Guo Ziyi say this, he couldn't help but nod his head and agreed: "Marshal, what General Guo said is true, if a thousand people are transferred from the three thousand troops, or 1,500 people, then General Guo and I will definitely be able to hold down the position!" ”

This time, even Du Shiyi felt that this Faxing was permissible. While he was thinking about it, suddenly a person outside the hall hurriedly entered, it was Huya.

"Dashuai, all six of them have been killed with a rod."

"Very good, these people who have been in the army for many years, even if they die, it is not enough to atone for their sins, show them to the public as an example!"

Huya responded to the order, but did not do it immediately. Du Shiyi couldn't help but be a little surprised when she saw this: "Anything else?" ”

Before Fugu Huaien could react, Guo Ziyi grabbed the person's arm and quietly retreated. When he got outside, he looked at the unknown Fugu Huaien with a smile and said: "Little General Fugu, then Chen Yong proposed this plan, it was clearly a pit person, I didn't expect you to fall into the pit yourself, and you also gave me a piece of the pit into it!" ”

"Who cheated you! Also, General Fugu will be General Fugu, don't add a small word! Being exposed to his thoughts, Fugu Huaien couldn't help but be a little annoyed, "Besides, General Guo, you have already asked for help!" ”

"yes, I'm going to ask for it too." Guo Ziyi smiled to himself, thinking that he was not willing to be silent after all. The next moment, he heard Du Shiyi's voice coming from inside.

"Ziyi, Huaien, you both come in!"

When Guo Ziyi and Fugu Huaien both came in again, Du Shiyi's face no longer had the previous hesitation. After staring at these two people for a moment, he said in a deep voice: "Just like Ziyi's previous advice, take Ziyi as the positive and Huaien as the negative, and attack the enemy with the generals." The Inspector of the Festival Degree came to Yao as the supervising army. Wynne, you don't have to compete with Huya in the martial arts arena, if you win on the battlefield this time, you will win! ”

Since Chen Bao'er wrote such a letter on behalf of Yue Wuniang and sent it, it also means that this time the Turkic Left Killer Bone Jieli was pitted by the Dengli Khan, the Right Killer Tuoli, and the Hui Pull Ximi and other departments, then, let him see what kind of achievements the Iron Triangle he has just promoted in Shuofang can have!
