Chapter 222: The Sandpiper and the Clam Fight

Lu Dongzan didn't believe that Li Hong didn't have any countermeasures until now, a crown prince who was trapped by an army of 40,000 more than him, what else could he do to escape? Therefore, he was not in a hurry, but summoned Delehei to his side and began to ask a little about the situation, he knew very well that the most undetermined factor in the 40,000 army on the field was Delehei, if he didn't deal with Delehei and his 20,000 army, even if he could trap Li Hong this time, he didn't dare to guarantee that Li Hong would be captured alive, only if Delehei was completely submissive to him, he would be able to capture Li Hong alive.

Lu Dongzan summoned Delehei to the horse and began to ask about some information, Li Hong was very calm about this, he neither thought of escaping nor thinking about making a breakthrough plan, but quietly observed all the dynamics on the field.

"Your Highness, what should we do now?" Li Duoqi asked first, after a battle with Harvey, Li Duoqi's bloodiness was stimulated, and now his battle is very strong, and the strikers and soldiers of the two guards around him are also very strong.

Li Hong didn't answer Li Duoqi's question, but turned his gaze to the on the side and asked, ", what do you think now?" ”

After all, the is not Li Hong's person, he is just the person sent to Li Hong by Tubo Mangsong Mangzan, he wants to withdraw from this battle, and no one can really say anything, Li Hong is not qualified to stop the from leaving him now, and Lu Dongzan will definitely not stop the from leaving at this time. Colleague Li Hong asked, he wanted to determine what the was thinking, because he didn't want to go to war with Lu Dongzan later, and the would be a Dele black again.

The didn't seem to understand what Li Hong meant, he looked up at Li Hong and said, "I don't have any ideas, the king asked me to protect His Highness's safety, and my current thoughts are to protect His Highness's safety." ”

This answer is equivalent to not saying anything, which makes Li Hong's face a little ugly.

However, he still held back the displeasure in his heart and continued to ask, "What do you think of this battle?" ”

This time, Li Hong asked very directly, no matter how stupid the was, it was impossible not to hear clearly.

The was stunned for a moment, and then replied, "Please rest assured, Your Highness, our ghost rider will definitely break out of the encirclement and reach Dafeichuan smoothly." ”

Li Hong smiled faintly, very satisfied with the's reply, "Don't worry, I won't let you escort Gu to Dafeichuan, we can clean up Lu Dongzan now and let him die in Zhanjiang." ”

Li Hong said this very domineeringly, and a chilling murderous aura rushed out of his body, suddenly turning him into a murderous demon god.

Lu Dongzan, who was talking to Delehei in the distance, also felt the murderous aura emanating from Li Hong's body, he looked up at Li Hong, and found nothing wrong, before continuing to say to Delehei, "Delehei, now you know the intention of the true appearance, right?" ”

Delehei's forehead was already oozing dense sweat, because what Lu Dongzan said to him just now was too shocking, with his current status as a small deputy general of the guard, such shocking words would not be able to bear it for a while.

"The subordinates heard clearly." Dele replied in horror, even in the face of Li Hong, he was not as cautious as now, Lu Dongzan's power in Tibet made him very afraid, and now what Lu Dongzan said to him made him even more afraid.

"No, no, no, you don't know what you mean." Lu Dongzan looked at Li Hong and said, "You don't understand the meaning of your true appearance at all. ”

"Tell me, Delhey, I will do what you command." Delehey replied immediately.

"In today's battle, we must capture Li Hong alive, do you know?" Lu Dongzan said in a resolute tone, "Only by capturing Li Hong alive can we ask for more things from the Tang Dynasty, can we develop and grow our Tubo, and can we approach the Chang'an City of the Tang Dynasty, now do you understand?" ”

"Understood, subordinates understood, please rest assured, I will not let Li Hong escape our encirclement." Deleblack assured. It's just that he knows very well in his heart that the intention that Lu Dongzan just told him is more than that, Tubo is used to grazing life on the plateau, and it is impossible to live in the Central Plains. So Lu Dongzan is approaching the city of Chang'an, what else can he ask for besides asking for money? No matter how stupid Delehei was, he thought of what Lu Dongzan wanted. But at this time, he still chose to pretend to be stupid, because he had betrayed Mangsong Mangzan, and now his master is Lu Dongzan, even if he is difficult to accept Lu Dongzan's idea, he does not dare to oppose Lu Dongzan, and he does not dare to inform Mangsong Mangzan of this matter again.

"It's good to get it!" Lu Dongzan smiled faintly, patted Delehei's shoulder and said, "Understand and prepare to attack, don't worry, as long as you follow the original appearance, the original appearance will not treat you badly." ”

"Yes, Prime Minister, my subordinates know." Delehee bowed and rode away. After he left, Lu Dongzan said to a fierce general beside him, "When the war starts, you keep an eye on him for Benxiang, as long as the time is ripe, kill him, understand?" ”

"Yes." The general replied aloud, his eyes flashing with bloodthirsty light.

How could Lu Dongzan let Delehei go? He didn't know how to kill Delehei because he wanted to use the 20,000 elite cavalry in Delehei's hands to deal with Li Hong, because the 20,000 elite cavalry in Delehei's hands were Mangsong Mangzan's people, even if he co-opted them by force, this group of people would not really be convinced. But when Delehei died on the battlefield, the situation was different, and without a commander, they naturally had to obey Lu Dongzan's command.

Lu Dongzan let Dele die in black, in addition to wanting to eliminate this rebel general who had thought about dealing with him, he also wanted to incorporate Mangsong Mangzan's army.

Isn't it clear that Lu Dongzan's intentions are difficult to blacken?

In fact, just now, when he was talking to Li Hong, he wasn't sure that Lu Dongzan would really attack him, but after chatting with Lu Dongzan, Delehei determined one thing, that is, Lu Dongzan really didn't want him to live.

Because Lu Dongzan has such a huge plan, it is estimated that even his henchman Sambas doesn't know about it, but now he told himself that this is not out of trust in himself, not out of respect for himself, but because he wants to paralyze himself and destroy himself again.

Delehei was stupid, but he still thought of it.

Returning to his camp, Delehei reacted immediately, he transferred a group of 3,000 elite cavalry to his side and acted as his personal guard, he didn't believe that in the course of the war, he could still kill himself with these 3,000 people around him to protect Lu Dongzan. As for after the war, he was not afraid of Lu Dongzan, even if Lu Dongzan didn't kill himself before, he had to kill himself on the battlefield, then it means that he was afraid of killing himself in the open.

"Command, attack!" Lu Dongzan gave the order to attack at this time.

"Woo woo-" His men took the order and blew the horn, and Delehee heard the order and ordered the army to start trotting and charging at Li Hong.

Lu Dongzan is not stupid, he did not give Sambas an order to let Sambas attack Li Hong, nor did he let his subordinates attack Li Hong, but only let Delehei's 20,000 elite cavalry attack Li Hong, he did this to prevent Li Haitao from escaping, and he also wanted to wait for work.

The number of 20,000 Tubo elite horsemen is indeed quite a lot, but with Lu Dongzan's understanding of Li Hong during this time, Li Hong now has 7,000 iron horsemen around him, and Delehei's 20,000 elite horsemen may not be able to take him. Therefore, Lu Dongzan did not dare to rashly let the army attack, he wanted to use Delehei to consume Li Hong's strength, and when Li Hong's army was exhausted, he would annihilate Li Hong's army in one fell swoop and capture Li Hong again.

"Your Highness, they attacked." Zhao Zhongyong's eyes were shining, and he said to Li Hong with a bit of a desire to fight.

"Is it just the army of Delehee?" Li Hong said with a smile, Lu Dongzan is really careful, "Black ghost, Zhao Zhongyong, these 20,000 horses have been handed over to you to deal with." Li Duoqi ordered the strikers and cavalry guards to support them with bows and arrows. ”

"No!" Zhao Zhongyong, the, and Li Duoqi bowed down at the same time to receive the order.

Zhao Zhongyong rode out on horseback, led his four hundred elite horsemen, brandished his sword, and killed the army of Delehei. The on the side also pulled out his war knife instead, and gave an order to the ghost rider behind him, and the ghost rider also received the order, pulled out the war knife at his waist, and urged the horse to follow the to kill the army of Delehei.

Li Duoqi rode to the front of the vanguard and the two guards, led the two elite cavalry to recommend two hundred steps forward, bent the bow and arrows, and shot one by one the feathered arrows at the Dele black elite cavalry who rushed towards Zhao Zhongyong and the army.

"Chen Gong, you and the guards should keep an eye on Sambas to prevent him from sneaking up on us." Li Hong continued to order, "Sambas's 8,000 elite cavalry is Lu Dongzan's elite army, and we must not be careless. ”

"Please rest assured, Your Highness, the last general knows." Chen Gong received the order, and he immediately ordered the four hundred guards to turn around and point their bows and arrows at the eight thousand elite horsemen of Sambas behind him.

All of Sambas's attention was on the battlefield, he saw Li Hong's four hundred guards turn around and pointed their bows and arrows at his army, and the corners of his mouth only showed a faint smile, now that the prime minister has come, he has launched an attack, and he is not afraid that Li Hong will cheat again, so when the four hundred guards face his army, he is very calm.

"Your Highness, why did Lu Dongzan not press on us with an army, but chose to let Delehei attack us?" Chen Gong asked puzzled. Li Hong said lightly, "He wants to use Delehei's army to consume us, let us fight with each other, and he wants to make a profit." ”

"Is it difficult to be willing to be used by Lu Dongzan?" Chen Gong continued to ask puzzled.

"Man is a sword, I am a fish. Delehei is already riding a tiger, what else can he do? Li Hong smiled, "It's not a pity for this kind of person to die." ”

Chen Gong stopped talking, but closed his mouth in amusement
