The sunset melts gold, the wind sweeps, and the winter sunshine on the grassland is very short, and before the unitary time, the sun has already fallen obliquely to the west, and it seems that in a quarter of an hour or two, the sky will be completely dark.

Inside and outside the camp of the party and the eight qiangs, there were knights and horses coming and going. At this moment, it is the twilight of the day, the camp is full of smoke, and the fat sheep and cattle are pulled to the outside of the camp to be bled and slaughtered one by one, and the cauldron inside the camp is gurgling and bubbling, and a burst of fragrance wafts out, smelling it, making people salivate.

The order of the governor of the Tuoba Department has been issued, the whole army is mobilized, cattle and sheep are slaughtered, all the wine is taken out, the three armies are rewarded, and the dawn tomorrow is on time. As soon as the Grand Governor and the seven Assassins arrived from the main camp with 30,000 standing troops, the 50,000 troops could divide into multiple routes and conduct a carpet search for the 1,500 Tang Army.

Find them, surround them, kill them all. Fifty thousand against fifteen hundred, and it was on his own territory, and Xiang Liraba, who stayed behind in the Li Department, didn't think that those Tang troops could still bargain this time.

In the past two days, these Dangxiang Qiang tribe knights have been beaten by the Tang cavalry, which is far less than them, and they have no power to fight back, and they are all holding a breath of fire in their hearts, and they can't vent it.

At this time, when they heard that the 30,000 standing army of the main camp would be drawn here tomorrow, they would attack in multiple ways, and this group of Tang troops who were still sweeping around the Feiting Division, the Xiangli Division, and the Pochao Department would definitely be unable to escape!

As if they had seen 1,500 Tang troops surrounded and killed, and they had taken revenge, all the people in the camp, including the half-grown boys who were transferred here, were sitting around the fires at this time, eating beef and mutton. Gulping down a bad wine. Shouted loudly.

The anger that has been held back for days. Finally got catharsis at this moment, and the thought of finding those heavenly killers tomorrow and the Tang Army who should go to hell to take revenge, the knights of more than 20,000 tribes became enthusiastic and emotional.

In front of the fire, a warrior with the most burly figure and a black tower looked like a black tower, after a few sips of wine. I felt that my whole body was hot, so I simply took off my robe, and I was bare-chested, my bronzed skin shining in the light of the fire, and my muscles and flesh were bulging and as hard as stone.

His name is the wild word green ghost, and he is the first warrior of the wild word department, his family, all the men, his father. His uncle and two younger brothers were both two days ago. was killed by the Tang Army, and because of his bravery, he was selected as a personal guard by Tuoba Shou Silence, so he was spared.

The eyes of the wild green ghost were already red as if they were about to burst into flames, and while drinking a lot of wine, he shouted and scolded loudly, and from time to time he slapped his chest with a fluffy sound, vowing to kill enough Tang soldiers tomorrow to avenge his relatives!

If he hadn't been pulled by the warriors around him, he was so emotional that he seemed to be going crazy, and he almost couldn't immediately pick up his knife and get on the horse and kill all these Tang army bandits.

"Wild green ghosts, bear with it for the time being, just let those Tang army robbers live for a day or two, what's the matter, when the army of the Metropolitan Governor arrives tomorrow, they will be unable to fly.

When the time comes, we will catch dozens of Tang soldiers, cut out their hearts, or tie them to the horse's tail and drag them to death, dispose of them as you like, let you get angry, this will always work! ”

"These bandits, who deserve to go to hell, will only hide in Tibet and launch a sneak attack, slaughtering the unprepared tribes. I never dared to fight head-on, I was worried that when our army arrived tomorrow, this group of robbers who were as cunning as foxes would run away like rabbits. ”

It turned out that after the three tribes converged, these tribal cavalry also sent three teams of 3,000 people each to search for the whereabouts of the Tang army. But no matter how much they can't chase it, the sentry cavalry or small detachment that is divided will be eaten by the Tang army silently, and when the large army arrives, the Tang army will disappear again.

Because of this reason, Tuoba Shou Lin decided to dispatch all the standing army and the 20,000 tribal cavalry and 50,000 troops that had already converged in Xianglibu, divided into 25 teams, to conduct a carpet search, and must eliminate this group of Tang troops.

They don't believe that with such a search density, these three Tang Army, who are not familiar with the place, will still have room to move.

Everyone was full of confidence in tomorrow's purge of the purge but the vengeful Wild Speech Green Ghost couldn't help but worry that the Tang Army would run away, because he felt that this Tang Army was too cunning.

He had also thought that this group of Tang troops was so cunning that they would attack the camp at night, but as soon as this idea came to him, he was immediately driven out of his mind. Even I think it's ridiculous.

This group of Tang troops has always bullied the weak and feared the hard, never dared to fight hard, and only dared to attack a team of less than seven or eight hundred people, and more than a thousand people walked around from afar.

A thousand have to run, and now there are 20,000 tribal cavalry in the camp!

"Unless someone reports to them, let them know in advance." The centurion who persuaded the wild green ghost was slightly stunned, and then laughed happily: "But is this possible? All the party members on the grassland have a blood feud with them, and the Tang army is still sweeping nearby, driving cattle and sheep in the direction of Youzhou.

As soon as the Metropolitan Governor arrives tomorrow, he will definitely send troops and horses to cut off the way of this group of Tang troops, and then send out all the troops to search, just like an autumn hunt. ”

He patted the shoulder of the wild green ghost vigorously, and laughed: "Don't worry, as soon as tomorrow comes, this group of Tang troops will be the prey to be hunted, surrounded by us, driven away, and finally killed all!" You can rest assured to drink, endure this night for the time being, take care of your spirits, and let go of the fight tomorrow! ”

The centurion stood up with his bowl in his hand: "Ladies and gentlemen, for our victory tomorrow, for the sake of sending those robbers to hell, this bowl of wine!" ”

The same scene, not only by the campfire outside the tent, but also in the cowhide tent in the middle of the camp of the Ribe, was also celebrating tomorrow's victory in advance, and the atmosphere was extremely enthusiastic.

Xiang Lilaba hugged a Dang Xiang Qiang woman, raised her wine glass, and was in high spirits: "Ladies and gentlemen of various tribes, the order for the attack of the Grand Governor has been issued. Tomorrow, our 50,000-strong army will sweep through the entire meandering grassland and send the 1,500 Tang army to hell......"

He finished speaking confidently, and laughed out loud, and then twenty of the already slightly drunk commanders joined suit, either smirkedly or triumphantly.

The sky was already completely dark, but the moon would not come out for a while, and at this moment, there was only this one with light in a radius of ten or so radius.

Outside the big tent in the middle of the camp, the noisy voices of drunken men came out, mixed with the screams of women, which made people's hearts beat faster; Around the camp within a radius of three or four miles, the bonfires were still burning extremely strongly, most of the people had already eaten and drunk enough to go back to the tents to sleep, and the snoring sounded loudly, but there were still a few people still around the campfire, shouting and cheering.

Some sturdy warriors with too much energy and nowhere to vent are wrestling and wrestling shirtless beside the fire, and the No. 1 warrior of the Noji Department named Noji, named Noji, has won eight opponents in a row......

At the outermost end of the camp, the few dozen tribal warriors who were well fed and drunk, and who were assigned to be on duty at night, did not pay attention to the guards, and looked inside the camp from time to time to cheer for the warriors they knew well.

At one point, a soldier from the Fei Ting Department suddenly turned his head to look east of the camp.

It was pitch black and the wind was howling.

He listened intently for a second or two, and found nothing.

After a moment, he turned his gaze back to the camp again, and a little more than a hundred paces away, one of the warriors of his tribe overthrew his opponent, and he also shouted hello.

The perspective is pushed back to the place where the Dang Xiangqiang soldiers had just looked, on the snow less than eighty steps away from the camp fence, there was a slightly raised place, one or two feet higher than elsewhere, it was a stone growing in the ground, the south side of the stone, a slight leeward, two Tang soldiers lying there.

The two of them wore a white cloak and wrapped tightly around their bodies, leaving only two slits on their faces: eyes and nose and mouth.

The two of them lay there quietly, motionless, if they were not careful, they were afraid that it would be difficult to find within five steps, just now, it was the two of them who gently grabbed a handful of meat floss from their clothes to eat, and then they made a little noise.

Both are in their early twenties, one is named Lu Wan, who is the scout captain of the Anxi Army; The other is called Hu Yueyuan, who was originally from the Anxi Army, and is now a soldier under Xiao Quai.

Seeing that the guard turned his head, the two of them slowly stuffed the meat floss that was still with body temperature into their mouths and chewed slowly.

After eating this handful of meat floss, Lu Wan felt that his strength was slowly coming back, and his slightly frozen hands and feet began to warm up at this time.

The thing called meat floss invented by General Xiao is really good, delicious, and hungry. Lu Wan's eyes were fixed on the camp of Dang Xiang Qiang, thinking about what he would say to everyone on the second night of Xiao Quai's departure from Chang'an.

"What we are most proud of and respect is the spirit! During the Taizong period, Li Wei Gongxue attacked Dingxiang at night; During the Gaozong period, Su Dingfang, the prince of Xingguo, marched in the snow, day and night, and destroyed the Western Turks in a war. It is this kind of pioneering spirit that is not afraid of hardship, courageous and fearless!

We admire the great deeds of our ancestors, and I hope that you will keep this spirit alive and even turn him into faith. I have always said that only an army with a firm belief is truly invincible and invincible in the world......"
