After about half a cup of tea, the fight in the field was no longer so messy, and almost half of the people who continued to fight were missing, and the other half of the people fell to the ground and couldn't get up, and the screams were endless.

Wang Haibin took a closer look and couldn't help but be surprised, the people who fell to the ground seemed to be all government soldiers, and there was not even a Luzhou regiment training. He rubbed his eyes and counted the shirtless regimental training soldiers in the field, and sure enough, there were quite a few, still a full fifty people. Wang Haibin didn't know how these group exercises were done.

Curious, Wang Haibin widened his eyes and looked closely, and finally found some clues.

He found that the regimental training soldiers were not like the government soldiers who swarmed and fought separately, and none of them fought alone, or three or five people gathered together to form horns with each other, they cooperated with each other skillfully, and the government soldiers surrounded them, although the number was large, they could not play a role at all, but were knocked to the ground by them one by one. In addition, the sharp-eyed Wang Haibin also discovered a characteristic of the group training, they don't make extra moves, as long as they make a move, a government soldier will fall to the ground, and they never fail.

Wang Haibin could see that although the government soldiers were still attacking at this moment, the regimental training was still on the defensive, but the government soldiers were obviously at the end of the crossbow, and the defensive efficiency of the regimental training was both high and physical strength-saving. Wang Haibin can foresee that it won't be long before the advantages of Luzhou's group training will be completely highlighted.

Thinking of this, Wang Haibin glanced at the incense in the hand of the sergeant of the time, which was about two-thirds of the time burned, and he secretly guessed in his heart: It seems that it will not be long before the Luzhou regimental training will counterattack.

It seemed that in order to confirm Wang Haibin's guess, Li Shiyi in the field whistled. Luzhou Tuanlian, who had been on the defensive, suddenly began to switch from offense to defense. Those government soldiers were already struggling to support themselves physically strong, but now the Luzhou regimental training suddenly launched an offensive, where can they still resist. They were knocked to the ground. After a while, there were no more standing soldiers in the field.

The generals who watched the battle from the sidelines were deeply shocked, they didn't expect that the Luzhou regimental training, which was not the regular army of the Tang Dynasty, would have such terrifying combat effectiveness. They knew in their hearts that it was Li Tao who had asked their subordinates to show mercy in advance, if this was a real sword and a real gun fighting on the battlefield, I am afraid that there would be no living mouth on the ground

Just when everyone was full of emotion. Li Shiyi, the fire commander in the field, was not idle, and with his command, fifty intact Luzhou regimental trainers lined up neatly. When you come to the place where your armor is unarmed, you put on your shirt and armor, then turn over your horse and blend in with the cavalry standing on the sidelines.

Autumn white feathers are the same as before. Ran to Li Tao. He said loudly: "Report to the regiment training envoy, the mission is complete!" ”

Li Tao waved his hand and said, "Quickly return to the camp and stand by!" ”

"Yes!"

There was another burst of dust, and Qiu Baiyu commanded the Luzhou regiment to roar away.

After the dust fell, there was silence in the field, and even the soldiers who had been wailing tightly closed their mouths.

Xue Ne and the others who watched had an illusion, as if nothing had happened just now, but the soldiers who fell to the ground in the field really existed.

After a long time, Xue Ne finally took the lead in speaking: "Good zero casualties." A good Luzhou group practice, a good Lantian king. I've seen a lot today! Good! Good! Good! ”

After saying three good words in a row, Xue Ne turned his head and walked towards the big tent of the Chinese army.

Li Tao smiled faintly, and then followed.

The rest of the generals look at me, I look at you, and they also walked towards the big tent of the Chinese army, leaving only the stunned Li Sijing and the government soldiers in one place.

After everyone finished taking their seats in the Chinese army's tent again, Xue Ne looked directly at Li Tao and said, "King Lantian, what do you want to explain by doing this?" ”

"I'm not doing this to show off, I'm just trying to tell all of you. When it comes to the combat effectiveness of the Khitan cavalry, it is no worse than the Luzhou regimental training. If you underestimate them, you will suffer a loss, and you will suffer a big loss. There are only 800 people in the Luzhou regiment, but there are tens of thousands of Khitan and Xi cavalry together. ”

Xue Ne said with a bitter face: "Since it is undoubtedly defeated, then does King Lantian mean that he does not agree to fight this battle?" ”

"Grand Duke, when did I say I didn't agree to fight this battle?" Li Tao asked rhetorically.

"Huh?" Xue Ne was confused by Li Tao, and he couldn't help but say: "King Lantian, don't sell Guanzi, what is the idea, you can say it directly!" ”

Li Tao stood up, he looked around at the crowd, and said slowly: "I told Your Majesty before I came that this battle will be lost. However, in the end, Your Majesty and I have decided that we will fight this battle even if we will lose this battle, do you know why? ”

The crowd listened with bated breath.

Li Taolang said: "There are three reasons! ”

Xue Ne said with a solemn face: "King Lantian, please speak!" ”

"First, as the Metropolitan Governor said, Yingzhou has been occupied by the Khitan for nearly 20 years, and there were no major moves in Zhongzong and Ruizong before, and now we are sending troops to recruit the Khitan and Xi tribes, which is to show Your Majesty's attitude, Yingzhou is the territory of my Datang, and Datang has the determination and confidence to restore the Andong Governor's Mansion."

Everyone nodded.

"Second, we used to have the idea of winning the battle, but we ended up losing the battle. This time, we are fighting this battle with the idea of losing the battle, and although we will still lose this time, we can win the battle in the future. ”

Li Kailuo asked puzzledly: "King Lantian, what you said makes me more and more confused, is there any difference between the two?" ”

Wang Haibin's heart moved, and he asked: "King Lantian, what do you mean is to find out the weaknesses of the Khitan cavalry through this battle, even if they are defeated, they must learn a lesson from it and lay the foundation for winning the next battle." ”

Li Tao looked at Wang Haibin approvingly: "I can't imagine that there are still people who understand among us, as the saying goes, failure is the mother of success, we have been defeated repeatedly, but we are only held responsible, thinking that the Khitan is strong, and never seriously thinking about why we will lose, how we will lose, and how to defeat the Khitan people in the future." This time, we will use this battle to thoroughly find the weaknesses of the Khitans and accumulate experience for the next battle. ”

Everyone couldn't stop nodding, and the depressed mood just now was inspired by Li Tao's words.

Xue Ne asked, "King Lantian, what are these three?" ”

"The third is because of the participation in the war of the Luzhou regiment. Do you think that I spent so much money, and the Luzhou regimental training equipped with it was just a showcase? In this battle, Luzhou Tuanlian is responsible for the whole army, even if this battle is defeated, as long as you do not break up and can safely retreat behind Luzhou Tuanlian, I assure you that Luzhou Tuanlian is sure to stop the Khitans and cannot advance half a step. ”

When everyone heard Li Tao assure like this, their hearts suddenly increased their confidence.

Xue Ne's confidence also increased, and he asked Li Tao again: "Since the king of Lantian has said this, if we can't fight this battle again, it is better to die headlong." I don't know if Lantian King has any other requirements? ”

Li Tao pondered for a moment and said: "I have only one request, although this battle will definitely be lost, I hope that you will find ways to minimize the losses, and the lives of our Datang soldiers are also precious." I don't want to see the tragic scenes like the Battle of Dong Kip Stone and the Battle of Leng Cheng again, please! (To be continued......)
