Xu Qing looked through the lens of the telescope, and clearly saw ten young and beautiful palace girls riding high-headed horses, following behind two carriages, if the people in the carriage were their young lady, it must be a fairy-level beauty, otherwise they would not dare to raise ten flower-like maidservants by their side, which contrasted with the shabby appearance of the master. Xu Qing has seen a lot of this situation in later film and television dramas, and the possibility that the maid is beautiful and the lady is more beautiful is greater than 99%.

Xu Qing didn't want these ten beautiful girls and the more beautiful aristocratic daughters in the carriage to die under the random arrows of King Yan's ambush army for no apparent reason, and sent Zhao Mengchen to intercept the Tang army that was stepping into the ambush circle as quickly as possible, only telling them that there was an ambush ahead, but don't say that the ambush was King Yan's army.

Zhao Mengchen took the order and left, raising the light skill to the limit, at eight times the speed of the galloping horse, so fast that the sentry of the Yan King Fu army did not see Zhao Mengchen's figure clearly at all, and thought that he was dazzled. Zhao Mengchen rushed to the Tang army in a few breaths of ordinary people, the Tang army general reined in the horse, raised his hand, the whole army stopped advancing, the officers and soldiers drew their blades one after another, and the shield hand surrounded the two carriages and ten beautiful girls and strictly protected them. All ten beautiful girls dismounted and squatted on the ground to avoid being hit by hidden weapons and stray arrows during the battle.

Zhao Mengchen looked at the posture of the officers and soldiers, and he didn't have to think about it to know that the identity of the person sitting in the carriage must be very noble, which made the officers and soldiers who protected them/them so nervous.

Zhao Mengchen was bold, not frightened by the formation of the officers and soldiers, and said calmly: "Don't be nervous, I have no malicious intent, I am here to report to you, there are a large number of ambushes in the woods about three or four miles ahead, the number is about a thousand, waiting for you to take the bait." As soon as you come within range of your arrows, they will shoot at you. ”

The officer and soldier general was a middle-aged man in his thirties, who looked powerful and powerful, and his face became serious when he heard Zhao Mengchen's words, and he asked: "Who are you, why do you know that there is an ambush ahead, and why did you come to send us a letter?" ”

Zhao Mengchen said: "You don't need to know who I am, you just need to know that there is an ambush ahead, if you don't believe me, you can send scouts to reconnoitre." I have already brought my words, and I will not accompany you. With that, he turned around and returned, and in the blink of an eye, he disappeared from under the noses of the officers and soldiers.

You don't see hell in broad daylight, do you? Not a ghost, a fairy? The soldiers were talking. The leading general finally had some insight, and knew that the peerless beautiful girl he met was a top master of martial arts, and his fantasy was useless, so he sent two scout teams to reconnoiter from the woods on the left and right sides of the narrow valley.

The scouts spotted the ambush and returned, reporting to the general. The general ordered the whole army to return from the original route as quickly as possible, and quickly escape from the narrow area of the valley several miles long, and reach the open area, without worrying about being attacked by the enemy lying in ambush on both sides of the narrow valley with a rain of arrows. More than 1,000 people rushed out of the woods outside the land of three arrows on both sides of the wide valley, holding all kinds of weapons in their hands, and came to cover the killing.

The general ordered: "Protect the two princesses!" "In accordance with the defensive tactics of the horse infantry army compiled by Li Jing, a famous general and military strategist in the early Tang Dynasty who led the 5,000 Tang troops to destroy the Eastern Turkic Khanate, the officers and men formed a circle with more than 40 carriages transporting grain and grass and horse barriers, iron thistles, and bows and arrows to build fortifications. All the horses hid in the defensive circle, and all of them lay down. The two princesses also got out of the carriage and lay on the grass in the defensive circle with the ten palace maids.

These 300 Tang troops were carefully selected from the 10,000 cavalry of the "Flying Cavalry Army", the most elite cavalry unit of the Tang Dynasty.

The more than 1,000 people who rushed over were the same as the ambush soldiers in front, and they were also the descendants of King Yan, taking off their military uniforms and putting on the clothes of ordinary people, but the weapons in their hands and the shouts of killing in their mouths showed that they were not ordinary people.

The Yan Wangjun participated in the Tang Army's conquest of Goguryeo and Baekje several times five years ago, and experienced the test of war, and the combat effectiveness of the Son of Heaven's Guards, which had never fought in Chang'an, was much better, and this was the reason why the emperor Li Zhi and Empress Wu Zetian approved the request of the Yan King to invite the envoys of the five ethnic groups of Silla, Eastern Turk, Khitan, Murwei, and Xi to attend Concubine Zhen's birthday banquet half a year ago, "in order to enhance the mutual understanding and friendship between the Han and minority people in the Fanyang area" (Yan Wang's language). , there is a plan, he pretends to care about the eldest son of King Yan Li Shusheng, the second son Li Xingsheng has not yet married when he reaches the marriageable age, the emperor and queen are very kind to King Yan, and the two palace maids with outstanding looks are rewarded to the two princesses of King Yan as concubines, and another ten palace maids are sent to marry, and each princess is divided into five palace maids to marry the deep reason.

King Yan suspects that these two concubines and ten palace maids are the eyeliner that the Empress Wu intends to place in the Yan Palace, if they really arrive at the Yan Palace, then the King of Yan will not have any secrets in front of the Empress Wu, and the Empress Wu will know everything about the every move of the King of Yan, and the King of Yan shuddered when he thought about it, so he transferred two thousand elite troops to intercept and kill the princess and the palace maid who were married by the Emperor and the Queen, and the two generals who led the troops were old subordinates who had followed King Yan for more than 30 years, and King Yan also accepted their daughter as a concubine, King Yan believes that they are absolutely loyal and reliable.

The horse barrier has no effect on the infantry, but there must be an iron thistle if there is a horse barrier, and the iron thistle can hurt the horse's hooves, and can also hurt people's feet, Yan Wangjun is very professional in fighting, and when he saw the horse barrier, he immediately stopped, and the shield army stepped forward to cover up, and the "minesweeper" took the frame in one hand and the magnet in the other hand, and recovered the thistle terrestris into the frame. After the shield corps and "minesweepers" cleared the barricades, the second group of shield corps opened the way, followed by archers, axemen, swordsmen, pikemen, and swordsmen.

The arrows of the "Flying Cavalry Army" rained down, first shooting in a straight line, and the bows and arrows were all blocked by the shield of the Yan Wang Army, which could not form an effective kill, and later changed to a parabolic shooting, which caused damage to the Yan Wang Army. At the cost of huge casualties, the Yan Wang army unswervingly charged forward, relying on the numerical superiority, and slowly advanced to the flying cavalry.

The Tang army's tactics were refreshing, and there were many improvements over those of the old Sui army. Xu Qing was stunned with a telescope, and after watching it for a while, he remembered to shoot a video with his mobile phone.

The 1,000 descendants of the Yan King who were ambushed in the narrow strip of the valley, seeing that the friendly army was making slow progress, was afraid that they would not be able to meet the requirements of the Yan King's total annihilation of the imperial court's relatives in order to kill people and destroy their mouths, and there was no proof of the order, so they rushed over to reinforce them.

Zhao Mengchen only knew that King Yan and Empress Wu did not deal with each other, and did not understand the grievances between King Yan and the imperial court, and couldn't bear to feel that this Tang army did not die on the battlefield of conquering Tubo, which rebelled against the Tang Dynasty, nor did it die on the battlefield of recovering the lost territories of Goguryeo and Baekje, but died in the hands of another Tang army, and asked Xu Qing: "Do we want to stop them?" ”

Xu Qing used his mobile phone to shoot a video of the two Tang armies fighting on the barrel of the telescope, and planned to show it to the students at the military academy in the future. Let's go, it's time for us to make a move. ”

Xu Qing led four bodyguards and a platoon of the elite of the new army, and rushed to the two warring sides, Xu Qing condensed his voice with internal strength, and shouted loudly: "Who is so bold and dares to attack the imperial army?" The head of the Longmen Dart Bureau, the county lord of Anguo, the county lord of Anbang, and the county lord of the shame flower county are in the second, you still don't stop? Xu Qing's voice shook the audience, thousands of people could hear it clearly, the two warring sides were intimidated by Xu Qing's identity and momentum, and they couldn't help but stop fighting without the general's order.

Yan Wangjun was stunned when he saw Xu Qing, the two generals led by him knew Xu Qing, aside from Xu Qing's identity as the common county master of the three county lords of Yan Wang, they also knew Xu Qing's power and martial arts and even King Yan asked him to respect him for three points, they didn't dare to make a mistake in front of Xu Qing, they were stunned for a moment, and they didn't dare to say hello to Xu Qing, so they ran away, so as not to expose their identities. They prayed silently in their hearts, they were wearing military uniforms when they met Xu Qing that day, and now they are wearing civilian clothes, and there were many people attending the wedding at that time, and Xu Qing may not know each other when they have met once.

Xu Qing had only seen the two Yan Wangjun generals at the banquet where he married Li Rui, and he really didn't recognize them, and even if he recognized Xu Qing, he wouldn't call out their names and expose their identities.

After the enemy retreated, the general of the "Flying Cavalry Army" who sent off his relatives gave Xu Qing a military salute and thanked Xu Qing for his kindness. Xu Qing talked to them and asked them which unit they were and what tasks they were performing. The army has a confidentiality regulation, Xu Qing didn't expect the general to answer, just out of curiosity, he asked casually.
