"The villain is a big thief, with five of his subordinates to steal the official treasury of four counties in a row, and won 2,000 taels of gold, he was betrayed by his subordinates when he was preparing to rob the Pengcheng County government at night last summer, fell into the hands of the government, and was sentenced to death.

"Two thousand taels of gold, you should be a rich man, but you still want to continue stealing, is it insatiable?" Li Jing stared at him sharply.

Han Qianhui straightened his waist and said: "I'm not insatiable, I have been an orphan since I was a child, I grew up asking for food, and then I learned a skill, so I wanted to do something for the orphan, and all the two thousand taels of gold were scattered to the wandering beggars in the Central Plains, so I was hated by my subordinates, and finally betrayed me."

Li Jing's gaze softened slightly, and he saw that Han Qianhui's eyes were sincere, and he was not afraid to avoid it, so he nodded and said: "Heroes don't ask about their origins, I don't care what you have done in the past, since you have been transferred by General Zhang to the official Sui army, it means that your merits have washed away the sins of the past, I hope you will make new contributions, take another step, and become a dignified Northern Sui general." ”

Han Qianhui was extremely moved in his heart, and choked up: "I am willing to follow the general until death!" ”

"We are all working for His Royal Highness King Qi, so there is no need to follow me!"

"Humble position—"

Han Qian wanted to explain, but Li Jing smiled and waved his hand, "You don't need to explain, let's fight for your future!" ”

"Humble ..... I see! ”

Li Jing smiled and said: "I came to you to ask about something, I remember you said on the first day that you stole sheep and horses in the Turkic sheep and horse city to satisfy your hunger, and finally stole their three horses, right?" ”

"Indeed!"

"Then I want to know, with the Turks' tight defenses, how did you steal sheep and horses?"

"Returning to the general, although the Turks are well defended, there are still loopholes."

Of course, Li Jing knew that there would be loopholes in any defense, and the key was whether he could find this vulnerability, so he hurriedly asked, "What loopholes?" ”

At this time, Han Qianhui saw the sand table on the table, pointed to the sand table and said, "It may be more intuitive to use it." ”

Li Jing waved his hand, Han Qianhui stepped forward, he carefully looked at the sand table on the table, the sand table is a topographical miniature of the northern part of Mayi County, among which a small red flag was planted in the north of Wuzhou Mountain, this is where they are currently located.

Han Qianhui pointed to the west of the mouth of the Purple River and said: "The Turkic camp is stationed in this location, north of the Purple River, close to the river, and Yangma City is south of the river, surrounded by a circle of earthen walls, the earthen wall is about seven or eight feet high, the Turks dug a very shallow canal to introduce the water of the Purple River into the city *** cattle and sheep to drink." ”

Li Jing had been in Mayi for many years and was very familiar with the situation here, so he muttered and said, "The water of the Purple River is very shallow, you should not dive into it from the river. ”

"The general was right, we initially wanted to dive in from the river, but found that not only was the river shallow, but it was well guarded, and there was no chance at all, but we found another loophole."

Han Qianhui couldn't hide the smugness in his eyes, and pointed to the southernmost part of Yangma City and said: "The open space south of the Purple River is actually very narrow and long, and the south is the big mountain, although the Turks have deployed a lot of patrol posts, but it is impossible to cover everything, they have a long wall built by the mountain, we dived down from the mountain, and stole a few sheep without knowing it, it is estimated that the Turks do not know it until now." ”

"What about the war horses?"

Li Jing asked again, "How did you get the war horse?" ”

"The horses came from three lone Turkic patrol posts, and we were lucky enough to attack and kill them and capture their horses."

Li Jing paced back and forth in the big tent with his hands in his hands, he was thinking about a strategy, and the information he got from Han Qianhui here made his strategy gradually full.

He beckoned to Han Qianhui and whispered to him: "I have an idea that you need to lead a dozen brothers to complete, think about it, or you are the most suitable, complete this task, I will make you a captain!" ”

"Please command, the general, humble duty will never be resigned!"

Li Jing explained the task to him in detail in a low voice, Han Qianhui nodded again and again, he was adventurous by nature, and the task assigned by Li Jing made him enthusiastic.

.......

Although the Turks learned to build walls, they could only build seven or eight feet of low walls, and they could not build plank barracks like the Sui army, and the Turks did not have this habit of garrisoning them, and their purpose in building walls was mainly to prevent wolves and wild beasts from attacking cattle and sheep, and they did not have this need themselves.

The tradition of the Turkic army is to live by water and grass, and the camp generally chooses the water's edge, which is mainly because they carry a large number of cattle and sheep and need to drink water, so the begging and purple river are so important to the Turks.

12,000 Turkic troops are stationed on the north bank of the Purple River, the dome tents woven with wool are wide and comfortable, and the 1,000 large tents cover an area of about 500 acres, and the south of the Purple River is the sheep and horse city with a narrow shape and an area of thousands of acres.

The large camp of the Turkic army has no barracks, no walls, not even carts or spears, not even a shallow trench, the Turkic army mainly uses perimeter patrols to replace fortifications, the inner patrol posts must extend at least ten miles away, and the outer patrol posts must go to a hundred miles away, once there is an enemy situation, the large camp will be immediately reported, to buy the Turkic soldiers time to prepare for the attack.

Due to the small number of troops, the outer patrol area of the Turkic army was relatively narrow, and they deployed four patrol teams of 100 men, all of which were arranged in the south and east, and the other two more distant patrol posts were deployed south of the Wuzhou Mountains.

They did not consider the possibility of the enemy coming from the north, which was not in line with the common sense of the march, so they did not deploy valuable patrol posts in the northern part of Wuzhou Mountain.

At night, the 50,000 Northern Sui troops had arrived at the foot of the mountain east of Zihe Pass, about 20 miles away from the Turkic military camp, and they no longer marched west, but patiently waited for the news of the two scouts in front.

The hundred scouts who attacked the city were led by the Lang general Wang Canghai, and their mission was to infiltrate the city to cause a riot, targeting the war horses of the Turkic army.

Wang Canghai sneaked over from the mountain according to the loopholes that Han Qianhui found them, and climbed into the city from the side of the mountain in the south of Yangma City, and they went very smoothly, and at the end of the watch, more than 100 Sui soldiers silently infiltrated Yangma City.

In fact, Li Jing only needed to use the strategy of surprise attack and night attack, and with an army of 50,000 people, he could easily defeat this Turkic cavalry of only 10,000 people.

But defeat is not equal to annihilation, even if the Turkic cavalry can't fight against the Sui army in a night battle, they will desperately break through and escape, Li Jing doesn't want this result, he wants to annihilate the Turkic army.

Wang Canghai is also a veteran scout, very experienced, on the mountain he saw the structure of the sheep and horse city, cattle and sheep in the east, war horses in the west.

The reason why it is called the city of sheep and horses is because the walls are not only the source of meat such as cattle and sheep, but also the centralized feeding place for the war horses of the Turkic army, which is the general practice of the Turkic army in peacetime.

For example, this army stationed in Zihe, their task is to meet the southern army, once the Turkic army in the area of Shanyang County is unfortunately defeated and retreats to the north, they are responsible for the south to respond, and intercept the covering of the pursuing troops behind.

Because they were far away from the battlefield, they were in this non-combat state, and the soldiers and horses camped separately, otherwise like the Turkic army in the area of Lou Fu Pass, their war horses must have followed the soldiers.

The scouts ran silently along the middle of the dividing fence, at this time, there was a faint sound of speech in front, Wang Canghai hurriedly waved his hand, and everyone rose and fell in the grass, the grass was two feet high, and the soldiers were quietly swallowed.

In a short time, a dozen Turkic patrol cavalry came slowly, discussing something loudly, and laughing from time to time, perhaps discussing the women and wealth that were about to be shared.

The cavalry marched from the side of the fence, and they were so excited about it that they didn't notice that there was an ambush of Sui scouts at their feet.

A horse's hoof stepped on the side of Wang Canghai's face, Wang Canghai squeezed the short lance tightly, his palms were sweating, and as long as the Turkic soldiers screamed, he would burst out and kill.

But a dozen cavalry patrol cavalry walked past them with a smile and a smile, and did not find a Sui scout hiding under their feet.

When the Turkic patrol was far away, Wang Canghai also realized that it was too dangerous to move against the wooden fence, so he waved his hand, and everyone followed him to jump over the wooden fence, bend down and run into the darkness, and soon disappeared into the vast grass in the horse pen.
