The thousand-mile-long Broken Leaf River Valley is blocked by the Wai Alai Mountain, which stretches for thousands of miles, forming a long natural barrier, but also because of thousands of years of geological changes, a series of mountain passes have been formed, the most famous of which is the Almadai Mountain Pass, which is open and flat, wide for more than ten miles, and is the best passage for a large group of people to enter the Broken Leaf River Valley.

At present, the main force of the Tang army and the Turgish people are deadlocked near the mountain pass, but in the southern part of the Wai Alai Mountain, there are countless valley roads leading to the valley of the Broken Leaf River.

In the evening of this day, two Tang army scouts entered the valley of the Broken Leaf River from a narrow mountain road, the terrain in this area is more complicated, several wide ravines make the road ahead extremely difficult, several ravines are about ten miles wide, and then in front of them is an endless forest, and at the other end of the forest is the small city of Broken Leaves, General Peiluo City, and to the south is a blue sea of Atami.

The two Tang army scouts were Qin Haiyang and Feng Shilang, and they were ordered by Li Qing'an to rush to the south of Broken Leaves to deliver a military order to Li Feiyuan.

Since Atami in the south blocked the way to the south, they had only two ways to get to the Anzai army, one was to go around Atami, but that kind of road was hundreds of miles, which would delay the fighters, so they could only choose another dangerous road, enter the valley of the Broken Leaf River, and pass through the settlement of the Turks between Yezhi City and General Peiluo City.

This road is very dangerous, and if you are not careful, you will be discovered by the riders, so Qin Haiyang and Feng Shilang try to choose to walk at night.

After turning over the ravine, it was dark, the semi-circular moon passed through the thin dark clouds, the night was bright and dark, and in front of it was a large black forest, the forest was pitch black, hiding all kinds of unknown dangers, especially at night, many nocturnal creatures posed a mortal danger to humans.

"Brother Qin, do we really want to go into the forest?" Feng Shilang's scalp was a little numb, and he seemed to see a few pairs of bright eyes swimming at the edge of the forest.

Qin Haiyang is also a little worried, he knows the area of broken leaves very well, Atami's unique geothermal heat makes the nearby forest a little different, it is said that there is an unknown water and land beast that will haunt the forest, it is a terrifying animal, the body is huge like an elephant, with a long and thick neck, the blood basin can swallow people in one bite, someone has seen it drag a leopard from the forest into the sea.

He thought for a while and said: "The roads in the forest are complicated, and you may not be able to go out at dawn, so let's find a lonely Turk Shi family, make a few sets of clothes, make up as a Turk Shi person, and wear it in a big way, by the way, do you speak Turkic dialect?" ”

Feng Shilang shook his head, "I won't say." ”

"Damn, you can't speak Turkic and be a scout, from now on you pretend to be a dumb person, I'll deal with everything, you kid learn a little."

The two of them discerned the direction in all directions, turned on their horses, left the forest and ran quickly to the southeast, about five miles away, when a few bright lights appeared on the grassland in the distance, it was the tent of the Turgish, and they finally saw the people.

Qin Haiyang was very excited, these tents were far apart, and when the opportunity came, he immediately stretched out his bow and set up arrows, and smeared the arrows with poison.

"You're just waiting here!"

Slowly climbed up, Feng Shilang was stunned, and before he could react, Qin Haiyang knelt down and shot an arrow, only to hear a low whimper, and twenty steps away, a black shadow fell to the ground, it was actually a hunting dog.

Qin Haiyang pulled out his dagger and rushed into the camp tent like a gust of wind, only to see the lights in the tent shaking, as if someone was shouting, the voice was very old, and there were also children's cries, but he immediately regained his calm.

Qin Haiyang quickly ran out of the tent, holding a few sets of clothes in his hands, and pulled out the arrows on the dog's body.

"Put it on!"

Qin Haiyang threw a set of clothes to Feng Shilang, Feng Shilang changed his clothes, and finally couldn't help asking, "Brother Qin, who is in the tent?" ”

"Don't ask!" Qin Haiyang said with a gloomy face.

They changed their clothes, blackened their faces again, turned over their horses, and galloped south, along the way, Qin Haiyang didn't say a word, he seemed worried, when the day was about to dawn, they had already bypassed He Hunting City, and a faint glow appeared on the horizon in the east, when they arrived here, there would be no more enemy troops, I thought they would be extremely thrilling, but I didn't expect the road to be smooth, I didn't see any Turquoise troops, the hinterland of Dumozhi was so empty, Qin Haiyang looked up to the sky and sighed long, "I'm doing evil!" ”

．．．．．．．． The 6,000 Anxi troops from Bahuan City were stationed on the grassland about 20 miles away from Hezhong City, and the task of these 6,000 Anxi troops was to coordinate Li Qing'an's main action in the north, and the role was to put pressure on the turks and disperse their forces, and they were not allowed to move their troops without receiving the order to attack, which may have been a small mistake made by Li Qing'an in this hasty transfer of troops, and he did not have time to establish an effective communication channel with the Anxi army, although he had plans to establish a carrier pigeon passage between Fengming City and Lingshan, It's just that it hasn't had time to implement it yet.

But it was this small mistake that made the Anxi army in the south fall into passivity, and there were only 5,000 old and weak soldiers in He Hunting City, should they fight or not?

The main commander of this Anxi army is Lifei Yuanli, Bahuan City is his lair, many people in the army are his old subordinates or colleagues, he is very familiar with every grass and tree here, Li Qingan will split the main force of the Anxi Army into three, Shule 10,000 people are led by Lifei Shouyu, and 6,000 people in Bahuan City are led by Lifei Yuanli, and the two brothers will master the elite of the Anxi Army, which can be regarded as a means for Li Qingan to control the military power of Anxi.

In addition to Li Fei Yuanli is the main general, the deputy general is Cui Qianyou, he participated in the battle for the first time, when he was the lieutenant of Guoyi in Henan, he led the troops to train, and read military books at night, but he really encountered actual combat, but he was the first time.

As soon as the morning dawned, Cui Qianyou found Li Fei Yuanli and said anxiously: "General Li Fei, it's not a way to wait like this, it's been ten days, the soldiers have nothing to do, and their morale is going to be exhausted, we must find a way to lure the enemy out." ”

Li Fei Yuanli was lying on the soft couch, chewing a plate of fried soybeans carelessly, and the beans were thrown high and accurately fell into his open mouth.

"Lao Cui, didn't I say you, do you think I don't want to fight? Five thousand old and weak enemy troops, I can annihilate them all in one battle, and I don't need to lead the enemy out of the city, so low and broken city, still want to block our Tang army? But you don't know my brother Li, he seems to be giggling, and anyone can be called a brother, but you really dare to disobey his military orders, he slaughtered you with a knife, as simple as killing a chicken, just ask who knows him better than me, bear with it! Anyway, military merit is indispensable for you. ”

After speaking, Li Fei Yuanli continued to knock his soybeans again, without raising his eyelids, Cui Qianyou had no choice but to sigh, and was about to retreat, at this moment, there was a soldier at the door to report: "Report!" The general sent someone to deliver the military order. ”

Li Fei Yuanli sat up suddenly, stuffed the soybeans into his mouth, and shouted vaguely: "Quick! Come on in, suffocate my old li. ”

After a while, the soldiers brought Qin Haiyang and Feng Shilang in, and the two knelt down on one knee and gave a military salute, Qin Haiyang said: "The scout team is Qin Haiyang to see General Lifei!" ”

"Don't be so verbose, give me the military order."

Qin Haiyang took out a military order from the sole of his shoe, and handed it to Li Fei Yuanli with some embarrassment, Li Fei Yuanli took the military order, and couldn't help pinching his nose and scolding: "You bastard, why did you hide the military order there?" ”

"Report to General Lifei, the toes of the humble position are very flexible, if you are caught, you can immediately destroy the military order."

Li Fei Yuanli had no choice but to unfold the general order, the military order was very simple, the Anxi army was divided into two, Li Fei Yuanli took 3,000 troops to Ningyuan Kingdom, Cui Qianyou led the other half to stay in place, and both of them could see the opportunity to act.

After reading the military order, the two glanced at each other, their eyes showed joy, Li Qing'an loosened their bonds, for Li Fei Yuanli, Li Qing'an gave him the order to go on an expedition to attack Ning Yuanguo, which shows that the main force of the Tang Army in the north has been sure to win, Li Qing'an's eyes have seen the next step, Ning Yuanguo.

"Lao Cui, I'll leave now, and I'll leave it to you here."

Li Fei Yuanli is already a little impatient, it is said that Ning Yuanguo's flower girl grabbed a handful, He Hunting City's old and weak remnants, he was not interested, the two discussed the details again, that afternoon, Li Fei Yuanli led three thousand people to the west, the battlefield in the south of the broken leaf fell on Cui Qianyou's body, after Li Fei Yuanli left, Cui Qianyou was a little worried about locking himself in the camp tent, although Li Qing'an's military order did not say it clearly, but Cui Qianyou still faintly felt Li Qing'an's true intentions, and transferred Li Fei Yuanli, Let yourself stand alone, the order to act at the opportunity is actually for himself, let go of his hands and feet, Cui Qianyou's heart beat hard, he felt that Li Qingan was creating an opportunity for himself, a chance for him to show his talents, and he had never fought, Li Qingan handed over such an important task to him, Cui Qianyou had a feeling of death for his confidant.

He slowly walked to the map, carefully studied He Hunting City and the surrounding terrain, the five thousand men and horses of the Tuqi Shi were stationed in He Hunting City and Frozen City, each other's horns, supporting each other, most of the troops were stationed in He Hunting City, He Hunting City was the old nest of Dumozhi, it was originally a small city, but it has been continuously built and expanded for decades, and now it has become a big city second only to Broken Leaf City, the truth is not as simple as Li Fei Yuanli said, once he storms He Hunting City, the Tang army will have great casualties, Cui Qianyou knows this very well in his heart, He had a bold idea to come to Li Fei Yuanli, but Li Fei didn't give him a chance to speak, and now that Li Qingan has loosened his ties, his idea is even stronger.

．．．．．．． Qin Haiyang didn't understand why he was so lucky during this time, he had been a big soldier for ten years, and the highest officer he had ever seen before that was only a captain, but this month, just because he accidentally discovered the transfer of troops from the Tuqi Shi people, good luck came again and again, and he was sent by Nan Jiyun to report to the general of the Jiedu envoy, and was selected by the Jiedu envoy and sent him south to give an order to the Anxi army, and now Cui Qianyou wants to talk to himself in detail, could it be that he has come to operate? Qin Haiyang felt like he was in a dream, but no matter what, he had been promoted two levels in a row, from a big-headed soldier who directly jumped over the fire commander to be promoted to the team leader, maybe after beating the broken leaves, he would be promoted to brigade commander or captain, and he was also known as General Qin.

With such a dream, Qin Haiyang walked into Cui Qianyou's big tent, the big tent was deserted, only Cui Qianyou was alone, looking at the map intently, Qin Haiyang did not kneel and salute, but bowed to Cui Qianyou like a junior officer, "See General Cui!" ”

Cui Qianyou didn't notice the change in his etiquette, smiled and waved his hand, "Please come here, I have something to ask you." ”

"General, please!" Qin Haiyang walked up a little flattered.

"I want to ask you, this time you came south to report the news, and there were any Turgish soldiers along the way to investigate? Or rather, were the Turgishes well defended? ”

"General Hui, we went all the way down and found that the hinterland of Broken Leaf was extremely empty, and after passing through the most traditional and densely populated area of the Turgish, we only found four tents, and the rest of the Turgish could not see the shadows, as if they had suddenly disappeared."

"As I expected!" Cui Qianyou said to himself with his hands behind his back.

Cui Qianyou stared at the map, and after a while, he suddenly turned back to Qin Haiyang and said, "I want you to go to Broken Leaf again." ”

．．．．．． Almadai Pass, the main force of the Tang army still did not fight with the Turgish people, has been eager to transfer troops, want to take advantage of the civil strife to recover the broken leaves Li Qing'an slowed down the pace of the attack, he got the latest news, the rebellion in the river area has a tendency to intensify, the Persian Zoroastrians sent envoys to the river, encouraging their followers to participate in the movement to drive away the big cannibals, the big food army is like a fire, suppressing this head, the fire over there is rising again, the big food army can not take care of the broken leaves for a short time, in this way, Li Qing'an has a new idea, why don't you use the recovery of broken leaves as an excellent training ground and try your own general's catties and taels?

The first thing he thought of was Cui Qianyou, one of the favorite generals of An Lushan in history, a handsome man who captured Tongguan and turned things around, although many of his successes were due to Li Longji's stupidity, but it was an indisputable fact that the hundreds of thousands of troops who fought Ge Shuhan did not dare to fight, so how big is the gap between the Cui Qianyou he got and the Cui Qianyou in history, or just a person with the same name and surname, these doubts can only be verified, that is, actual combat, he wants to create an opportunity for Cui Qianyou to give full play to his talents.

It was already dark, Li Qing'an stood in front of the camp tent silently waiting for the news of the scouts, and he sent more than a dozen groups of scouts to find out the news of the main force of the Turian cavalry.

It shouldn't be only these 6,000 people, he knows Dumozhi, that calculating person will not let his army come to die in vain, they are also waiting, they should be waiting for the arrival of reinforcements, this is also the news that he Li Qing'an is waiting for.

At this time, the sound of hurried horses' hooves faintly sounded in the dark night, rushed to the gate of the camp, someone turned over and dismounted, Li Qingan turned around and went back to the camp tent, and after a while, someone at the door reported: "General, scout the latest news." ”

"Come in!"

A scout walked in quickly, half-knelt in a military salute, and arched his hand: "Report to the general, we have detected that the main force of the Turgish is coming towards the mountain pass, less than thirty miles from their camp. ”

"Good! Quickly find me Li Guangbi. ”

．．．．．． Dumochi almost roared into Sade's tent, and the damned officer of the Great Food had gone back on his word and brought in all his troops, leaving his Broken Leaf hinterland empty, but they had decided to send 15,000 men north for reinforcements, and now all 20,000 men had been transferred.

"You've brought in all the troops, what about my broken leaves?" Dumozhi roared loudly, and his eyes erupted with fire.

In the tent, a naked young woman sat coquettishly in Saud's arms, carefully grooming his precious beard with a delicate pair of small scissors, and the woman's hands trembled with a sudden roar, and the tip of the scissors pierced Saud's face, and blood appeared on his chin. Saud pushed the woman away with some annoyance and slapped the scissors on the table, "What do you think your soldiers are, a rabble, they can beat the Don Army?" You dream!"

"I see!"

Dumozhi stared at Saud viciously, and said word by word: "You want to use my people to test the reality of the Tang Army, whether the broken leaves exist or not, whether my people are dead or alive, you don't care about it at all." ”

"Looks like you're not as stupid as I thought!"

A mocking sneer flickered in Saud's small eyes, "Do you think you can still bargain?" Even if you say that I'm using you Turks, so what? This is the decision of the Muslim governor, you are nothing but a dog, if you don't obey, it will be your death! ”

Dumozhi's thin chest was rising and falling violently, an unprecedented shame almost burst his heart, he followed the Sulu Khan in his southern and northern wars when he was young, and killed the commander of the Great Food, Qu Bodi, and now, he was wantonly humiliated by a low-ranking officer of the Great Food, and a large number of Great Diet officers were installed in his army, and he no longer obeyed him, and Dumozhi suddenly had a sense of despair, feeling that everything he had lost, his land, his dreams, and even the woman he loved, The feeling of despair of the woman lying naked in Saoud's arms and being played with wantonly seized his heart, causing his reason to drain little by little in Saoud's taunts.

He turned his head suddenly, staring at the naked woman viciously, this woman had no shame, the slick body was full of mockery written on him, his mind flashed the scene of her moaning under him, a stream of blood rushed to his head, Du Mozhi roared angrily, "Slut, you go to die!" ”

He drew his sword, but slashed at Saoud with his backhand, the knife freezing in mid-air, a sharp spear piercing his thin chest first.

'Dangchang! The long knife fell to the ground, Du Mozhi looked down at the blood gushing out of his chest in disbelief, then looked at Saud, and slowly fell to the ground, Saoud smiled coldly: "Do you think I can't understand that little trick of yours?" ”

"Ahh The woman screamed in horror, and her hysterical shouts lured in the three of Saoud's henchmen, "General, what's wrong?" ”

"You're just in time!"

Pointing to the corpse of Dumozhi, Saoud ordered: "Dig a pit and bury him on the spot." ”

After a pause, he added: "Go and tell all the Turgish, Dumozhi has gone to Khorasan to ask for help, and now the army is under my command." ”

He looked up at the dark north of the night, his eyes full of anticipation.

．．．．．．．
