"Little demon, little demon."

The Golden Wind Battalion reconnaissance team is Yao Guang just climbed a hill to observe the terrain, he heard someone behind him calling for himself, he felt a little strange, after he was promoted to the team, no one called his nickname, he put his hand on the pergola and looked down the mountain, a centaur team was coming, waving to himself is the old good partner Zhao Ban, Zhao Ban's nickname is Xiao Jiu, like Yao Guang, he was originally Dong Bacheng's subordinate, the battle of Feng'an failed and was captured, and he stayed in the right army of Tiande, and now, both of them have accumulated merit as officers, Zhao Ban was the second post of the third post of the Golden Wind Battalion at this time,

"Brother Jiu, why are you here?"

Yao Guang greeted him, the two hugged together, although they were in the same battalion, but there were not many opportunities to meet, the station of the Jinfeng Battalion was in the Ice Rock Valley, but the defense area covered Shannan, Yinshan, and Ningyuan counties.

"On the orders of Yao Tongjun, he cast a net everywhere." Zhao Ban patted Yao Guang's shoulder, looked him up and down, and said, "The person who has become a relative is different, much more stable, how about brother, can you still parry, I have a friend who sells medicinal herbs, do you want to get you some tiger bone wine." ”

"Don't be foolish, I'm so bad." Yao Guang blushed shyly, "Besides, I will see you so many times a month, and I can't do anything if I have the strength." Zhao Ban laughed, a few years ago, Yao Guang and the only daughter of the owner of a silk village in Fengzhou City became a parent, the little wife was gentle and graceful, and delicate as a flower, Yao Guang got a baby.

"Hey." Zhao Ban touched Yao Guang with his elbow, "Tell my brother to make a decision, I can't wear this armor yet." ”

Yao Guang was not in a hurry to answer, the two found a stone and sat down side by side, "Say, what's embarrassing about this." Zhao Ban leaned into his ear and asked again, Yao Guang sighed slightly, and said irritably: "I can't make up my mind, her family has been passed down for several generations, and she is such a daughter, the old man is persuading me to take off this armor and do business with him, but I am really reluctant to leave, Brother Jiu, you can help me get an idea, these days, I am almost annoyed." ”

Zhao Ban pursed his lips and said in a deep voice: "It is said that there is such a good opportunity, and we should not give up, but General Yang treats us well, so we just leave, and I really don't want to go, besides, your brother's heart is higher than the sky, so you will not be able to live in the second half of your life." After Zhao Ban said this, Yao Guang's heart became even more annoyed,

"I can't get around this circle......"

Yao Guang sighed in frustration, stood up, and patted the soil on his buttocks: "Forget it, let's wait until this battle is over, besides, I may not be able to go back alive." ”

"Phew, I'm bah, bah, little demon, you say frustrating things yourself, don't bring me with you." Zhao Ban's face turned white with fright,

Yao Guang laughed and hooked Zhao Ban's neck: "Died on the battlefield, the horse leather shroud, Fang was done by the eldest husband." ”

A horse galloped with a red flag on his back, obviously there was an urgent military situation,

"A small group of Khitan cavalry was found in the southeast, and the number was about thirty or more." After the herald finished speaking, he urged the horse to go to the northwest, and the battalions of the Xining Army on the Datongchuan grassland had been reduced to zero, and the scouts found the enemy situation and reported it to the nearest garrison, and the garrison itself decided whether to attack or not, which was a tactic specifically to contain the Khitan rangers,

"Brother Jiu, how about giving this credit to the younger brother." Yao Guang smiled at Zhao Ban,

"Brother, go ahead, I'll watch the battle for you." Zhao Ban said generously,

Yao Guang turned over and got on his horse, the reconnaissance team of fifty soldiers was divided into two teams, moving in the southeast direction, the one who came was the Khitan rangers, the Khitan rangers had a strong individual combat ability, playing a tactical role such as reconnaissance, harassment, and sabotage, generally in groups of two, called "double flying", and a group of three, called "three flying", in order to avoid stimulating the various units of the Yelut Ti Xining Army to break into pieces and enter the Datongchuan grassland, a small group of cavalry took the team as the basic unit to move around on the grassland,

The Khitan people split a hundred-man team into three strands to deal with the small cavalry of the Xining Army, the Khitan Army's hundred-man team was one hundred and five people, split into three strands, and one of the thirty-five people, and the Xining Army had a one-hundred-man team of thirty-four people, and the two were equal in number.

According to the past achievements, the Xining army is not the opponent of the Khitans in terms of cavalry individual combat, the advantage of the Xining army lies in the collective, when the number exceeds 100, the same number of Xining troops and the Khitans do not fall behind at all, when the number exceeds 500, the advantage of the Xining army is obvious, if it exceeds 1,000 people, the combat power of the Xining army will be two to three times that of the Khitan army,

For this reason, the Xining army on the Datong River took the "sentry" as the basic unit of activity, and there were 113 people in one outpost, so that even if it encountered the Khitan hundred-man team, it could maintain a certain advantage.

The reconnaissance team of each battalion is an exception, the reconnaissance team members are the elite of the army selected by thousands of people, because they often have to carry out reconnaissance tasks alone, and their individual combat ability is very strong, even if they are in a duel with the most Khitan elite cavalry, they are not left behind, so the reconnaissance team is divided into two, half of them stay in the Chinese army and wait for the unified army to send them, and the other half is scattered on the prairie to find an opportunity to destroy the enemy.

The two armies finally met on a flat meadow, and when they were a hundred feet away from each other, they found each other, and this duel was very fair.

The Khitans obviously underestimated the strength of the reconnaissance team, and when they found that the number of opponents was only twenty-five, everyone's hearts were extremely inflated, and their commander was named Tupin Buda Lao, who was the little prince of Tupin Bububu, and after he simply gave the battle order, he took the lead in killing him.

Arrows fly like locusts,

There are people on both sides who continue to fall off the horse, and the arrogant heart suddenly tightens, he found that the Tang army on the opposite side is not as easy to deal with as he imagined, in this head-to-head duel, the momentum of the Khitan people was completely suppressed, when the distance of thirty zhang, the knights on both sides put away their bows and arrows, and pulled out their blades, the Khitans used scimitars, maces, and crutch sticks, and the Tang army used spears and Tang broadswords, in this fair duel, the Khitans fell again,

Tupin Buda Lao was smashed off the horse by Yao Guang with a shot, broke his right leg, two Khitans tried to come to the rescue, and Zhang Bingkun, the deputy of the team, picked up the crossbow in the middle of the chaos, and shot off the horse one by one, Zhang Bingkun himself suffered a mace from the Khitans, injured in the right shoulder, and the knife was not stable, the battle was over, 35 Khitans only escaped with two wounded soldiers, and captured six people, including the little prince of Tupin Budalao, the reconnaissance team was injured 19 people, and 9 people were killed,

Zhang Bingkun knew Khitan language, and after a few words of intimidation, he asked about the identity of Tupin Buda, so he laughed and said: "Now we have made a great contribution, this is the little prince of Tupinbubu, with him, we can force Tupin Bubu to retreat." ”

Yao Guang said with a smile: "It's not enough to let them withdraw from the army, we have to use His Royal Highness the Little Prince to set up a bureau for Yelu Tira to get in." Yao Guang took off a token from Tupin Budalao, and took a soldier who knew Tang language to the camp of Tupin Bububu, and negotiated with the leader of Tupin Buxiao.

Zhang Bingkun was shocked: "You are in danger alone, I can't let you go." Yao Guangdao: "Don't worry, my life is not worth more than the life of the little prince, with him in our hands, the leader of Tupin does not dare to do anything to me." Zhang Bingkun took Tupin Buda back to report to Yao Meng, and Yao Guang went to the Tupin Bubu camp alone.

The Khitan is one of the eight Khitan departments, the cavalry of the department is fierce and good at fighting, known as the "Iron Army", the Khitan is in power of the Yao Ran clan and the Yelu clan to the Tupin is not a person to fight and pull, both use and prevention, Yelu Tira in order to prevent Datong River from falling into the hands of the Tang Army, and cut off their own back road to the north, just took over the military power, then rushed to the north to lead two thousand cavalry to take over the defense of Datong Sichuan overnight,

Although the casualties were not large, the army became very tired and demoralized, and the task was completed, and he could take the opportunity to rest and recuperate, but Yelu Tiera ordered to "immediately clear the remnants of the Tang army on the grassland".

The anger in the heart of the leader of the Tu Pin Bu Department has reached the extreme, the Tang army on the Datong River grassland is by no means a "remnant", they are the main force of the Tang army after the whole is broken into zero, but Yelu Tira ignored the facts and forced himself to clear it within three days, and if he does not clear the "remnant enemy" within three days, he will be dealt with by military law, to put it bluntly, this is to find a reason to repair himself,

The small group of Tang troops on the grassland came and went without a trace, the army poured out and could not find the enemy, and the empty energy was paraded in the grassland, and the small group was often taken advantage of by the enemy, there was no return, Yao Guang's arrival made Tu Pin Buxiao see a glimmer of hope, when Yao Guang took out the token of Tu Pin Bu Da to prove that his little son had fallen into the hands of the Tang army, Tu Pin Buxiao immediately agreed to cooperate with the Tang army, and he was determined to teach Yelu Tera a lesson,

However, he thought that Yao Guang's rank was too low, and his leader status was not equal, he insisted that Yao Meng, the commander of the Jinfeng Battalion, come to negotiate, Yao Guang wrote a letter to send someone to face Yao Meng, the letter was sent for three days and three nights, and there was no response, and hundreds of people died in the ambush of the Tang army in these three days.

Yao Guang used the cauldron as a bathtub, humming a little song while rubbing the bath, suddenly angry and funny, strode to the cauldron, and sneered: "You will soon become broth, I really don't understand, what do you have to be happy about." Yao Guang smiled: "You are about to lose your only son, and I don't know what you have to be happy about." Tu Pinbuxiao's face changed, and he hurriedly ordered the soldiers to remove the firewood and grass, and poured two buckets of cold water into the pot.

The water temperature is just right, Yao Guang's interest in taking a bath is even stronger, Tupin Buxiao really can't stand him humming while rubbing the bath, no one in his eyes, he picked up a mace and smashed the bottom of the pot fiercely, the water soaked out the fire, the water and fire blended, the explosion of stabbing and lala, a stream of green smoke rose into the air, and the people around the cauldron were all gray and dirty without exception, Yao Guang laughed and scolded sharply, and suddenly did not whistle but his face was flushed with shame,
