Chapter 39: The Khitans Attack [8]

Because they don't have the ability to protect the money, it would be nice if they could keep half of it when the time comes. And it will take a long time for the tribe to recover. The steppe people are precocious, and the fourteen-year-old boy is already a good rider, but it also takes fourteen years. Although it is said that the recovery speed can be accelerated by absorbing other wanderers, it generally takes seven or eight years to recover from the wound. This is unacceptable to Sāsād, who defines his goal on the throne of Khan, although he is not very old, how many seven or eight years of life does he have?

Yeluyi, who was thinking about something, suddenly changed his face slightly, and said with a solemn face: "Your Highness said that what about the cavalry you saw in the White Tide River?" ”

Sa Shude and Chi Yueli didn't react when they heard the words just now, and after pondering carefully for a while, everyone's faces changed greatly, and Chi Yueli slowly said with a solemn face: "You mean that they show weakness to the enemy and deliver a fatal blow when we relax!" ”

Sard's thick palm stroked the gold-encrusted pattern on the hilt of the scimitar at his waist, and he pondered for a moment and said, "I don't think Yeluyi's concern is unreasonable. Although the cavalry was inferior to our Khitans in terms of strength, it had won a lot in terms of equipment, and the formation was neat and the morale was high. Where is it like today's siege, the soldiers are greedy for life and afraid of death, and many arrows and crossbows are thrown out, and they dare not snipe. It's so suspicious! ”

Chi Yueli's eyes flashed a few times, his tone changed, and he said coldly: "In this case, we will also show weakness to the enemy and continue to proceed according to the original plan, I will see how many conspiracies and tricks you southern barbarians have!" ”

There was a murderous aura in his eyes, and he said coldly: "Okay, tomorrow we will start to let those miscellaneous armies attack the city." Our troops have a good rest, and everything is still going according to plan! ”

The rest of Yeluyi also said: "This is very good! ”

When Sashide and the others were discussing, Li Cunhuan's side did not fall behind. However, the only people who participated in the deliberations were Li Cunhuan's henchmen Chen Changfeng, Duan Ziyao, Pang Kongming, and eldest grandson Chengliang, plus Li Cunhuan, there were only five people in total.

The place of discussion was not in Li Cunhuan's Chinese army tent, but in an inconspicuous small tent, where Li Cunhuan and others sat on the ground. A cup of ginger tea is placed on a small coffee table next to each person's hand. Li Cunhuan's face was ugly and he was the first to speak: "You have also seen today's battle, I overestimated the fighting spirit of those Youzhou soldiers. The criminal state soldiers are better, but they are just fifty steps and a hundred steps. If this continues, it is only a matter of time before the camp is broken. ”

Duan Ziyao picked up the ginger tea, put it in the palm of his hand and didn't drink it, and said slowly: "Now only the general's more rewards can stimulate the soldiers' fighting spirit, otherwise it will be difficult to make a difference even if Bai Qi Sun Wu is reincarnated." Unless ......"

As soon as he saw Duan Ziyao selling Guanzi, Pang Kongming immediately became dissatisfied, and immediately raised his gong-like voice and shouted: "Unless what? You just like to talk! Not a little manly! ”

Duan Ziyao was angry and funny when he heard this, but he was familiar with Pang Kongming, so it was not good to deal with this stunned person. Seeing that Li Cunhuan nodded slightly, he continued to speak: "Unless you make an example of a hundred and put all the generals of the Youzhou Rong soldiers under house arrest, then it is possible to drive the Youzhou Rong soldiers." As for the Xingzhou soldiers, it is easy to do, as long as the Youzhou Rong soldiers are solved, and the general speaks to Li Cunxiao's command, the Xingzhou soldiers will no longer dare to avoid the war like today. ”

As soon as Duan Ziyao's voice fell, this Pang Kongming, who was in a hurry, had already applauded loudly, "Good plan!" General, in my opinion, this is the best way to use this strategy! ”

When Duan Ziyao heard this, he shook his head lightly and said: "Just doing this, I'm afraid that even if Lord Li Kuangshou doesn't blame the general, the general will offend the Youzhou military, and I'm afraid the road ahead will not be easy." ”

When Li Cunhuan heard this, he nodded noncommittally, looked at Chen Changfeng, and asked sincerely, "Sir, I don't know what you think you should do?" ”

Chen Changfeng didn't answer Li Cunhuan's question immediately, he pondered for a moment, and stammered: "Yes, offend Youzhou, Youzhou soldiers, yes, it's going to offend." But, but it depends on how to offend, it is the most suitable! ”

Li Cunhuan made a gesture of please, and even Pang Kongming's big mouth calmed down. A smile appeared at the corner of Chen Changfeng's mouth, and he asked people to bring a pen and paper, and wrote on the snow-white rice paper: Change the guard. Writing this, Chen Changfeng pondered for a moment, drew three circles on rice paper, and wrote them respectively: Danzhou, Gubeikou, and Coyote Mountain.

Draw a line between Danzhou and Coyote Mountain, and say slowly: "Change, a thousand black-clothed troops." ”

Draw a line between Gubeikou and Coyote Mountain, and continue to say slowly: "Change, two thousand Danzhou soldiers." ”

When everyone heard this, only Pang Kongming, the big boss, didn't understand, and everyone else's eyes lit up. The eldest grandson Chengliang was the first to speak: "In this way, there are only 2,000 soldiers left in Youzhou, and I am afraid that if they refuse to die, they will not avoid the battle as they did today." Just how to mobilize well? Once discovered by the Khitans, I am afraid it will not be easy to do. ”

Li Cunhuan also looked at Chen Changfeng, counting on him to tell the follow-up plan. The person who didn't want to open his mouth was Duan Ziyao.

Duan Ziyao opened his mouth and said: "I think the meaning of joining the army Chen should be to let the black-clothed army reach Gubeikou first, and then choose an appropriate time at night to quickly cross the river and reach Coyote Mountain." That is, raw rice is cooked and matured, and the Khitan people have to stare dryly. As for the fear that the Khitans will take advantage of the situation to attack Gubeikou, don't worry too much about this, don't forget that the Khitans are under our noses, and it is easy to come, but it is not so simple to go to Gubeikou. ”

When Li Cunhuan heard this, he immediately clapped his hand and said, "Okay! Immediately send a messenger to secretly go to Gubeikou and Danzhou. At the same time, he ordered to strengthen the camp, but don't let the Khitans take the opportunity to capture the coyote mountain camp! ”

"The last general (lower official) should obey his orders!" Chen Changfeng and the others got up and bowed their hands.

The next day, the Khitans undoubtedly attacked again in the morning, and by taking advantage of the fog that had not yet dissipated, the Khitans quickly launched a charge against the coyote mountain camp with light siege weapons such as siege ladders and ramming rams.

You come and go, the two sides are fighting extremely fiercely, but Li Cunhuan, who is standing on the watchtower and watching the battle, can see it clearly. The Khitans who launched the attack this time were not as good as yesterday, did the Khitans do this to show weakness to the enemy, or are they ready to use weak soldiers to slowly grind themselves to death? Or is there some conspiracy to ambush those strong soldiers yesterday and suddenly rush out at a critical moment?;
