Little Gold Mountain. (To read the latest chapters of this book, please visit the biquge.info of Wèn Aishang Novel Network)
This is not a dangerous point for a husband to be a man, but since the battle of Luntai, the Tang army drove the defeated troops of Mobei, and after establishing a stronghold here, Xiaojinshan has become the default demarcation point of Hu Han in Mobei.
At this moment, a large Buddhist car is driving out of Xiaojin Mountain. This cart is two zhang long and one zhang five wide, and a large flag can be set up on it, and a ten-foot Dharma seat can be placed under the big flag. The Buddha curtain and the Dharma curtain are hung around the Dharma seat, 88 Buddha statues are embroidered, 500 Dharma protectors of the heavens, and the banners are embroidered with scriptures, which makes people respect when they see it from afar.
However, such a big car can walk in Longyou, which has a big road, but when it comes to this desert north, it is a plain to walk, and the mountains and rivers are difficult to walk. So this cart is actually designed by the Anxi mechanic master Sadie, and when marching, the cart can be disassembled and broken into pieces, and when needed, the cart can be spliced together.
At this moment, a solemn monk was sitting on the throne, facing the east and sighing.
Next to the cart, someone pushed out a two-wheeled car, and another monk sat in the car, but this monk was obviously disabled, and he turned out to be the former privy deputy envoy of the Tang Dynasty - Li Bin, who had been missing for a long time!
When the big car of one big car and one small car pushed out of Xiaojin Mountain, the general who was protecting them had a somewhat similar figure and appearance to Shi Ba - it turned out to be Shi Ba's eldest brother and Shi Jian, who was deeply trusted by Zhang Mai! And the people around Shi Jian, horizontal swords and silver armor, are all jΔ«ng sharp!
Murong Yang, the guard of Xiaojin Mountain, sent him out, pointed to the east and said: "After here, it is Hu Tu, and once the living Buddha and the master pass here, the future will be a blank one." β
Shi Jian said: "Mobei is afraid of us, but for Master, it is the homeland. β
The monk on the chariot smiled slightly and said, "Elysium is the homeland. Whether it is Mobei or the Central Plains, they are just places for passers-by. β
Shi Jian hurriedly saluted immediately and said, "Master's teachings, disciples respectfully receive them." β
Li Bin drove forward, glanced at Shi Jian with appreciation, and said, "General Shi has a Buddha fate, but in just a few months, he can comprehend the Dharma to this point." β
Shi Jian said: "Uncle Shi praised it falsely. β
Murong Yang said again: "To the west of Xiaojin Mountain, we can keep the Living Buddha safe, once we pass the Little Golden Mountain, even if there are strong generals to escort us, there will be danger, please also ask the Living Buddha and the master to be careful." β
The monk on the Dharma chariot said: "Since my junior brother and I have made a great wish to transform the desert north for thousands of miles, so that they can get rid of barbarism and enter my Buddha, how can we be afraid of hardships and dangers?" General Murong was too worried. It's getting late, let's go. β
The chariot was about to set off, and suddenly a number of horsemen galloped from the east, escorted a captive closer, whispered a few words to Shi Jian, and explained the origin of the captive one by one, and said: "Shi Du ordered us to give this person to the living Buddha and the master to dispose of. Shi Jian said before he arrived at the chariot: "Master, there is a prisoner in front of you, it is a leather room army, or the guard of the Khitan Yongkang King, I don't know if it's true or not." β
The senior monk on the chariot said: "Xuan He is near." β
The captive of the leather room was escorted to the front, although he was a prisoner, but he was still strong, Li Bin ordered: "Unshackle." β
The escorted sergeant said: "This person has already escaped several times. β
Murong Yang smiled beside him: "In this army, if you don't believe that he can escape, respect the master's decree." β
The escorting sergeant had no choice but to let go of the man, and the leather room warrior looked at the surrounding formation, and knew that there was no hope of escaping, but when he looked at the group of lamas surrounding the chariot, he saw that Li Bin was a cripple with a broken double tuΗ, and thought that if he could be kidnapped, there might be a glimmer of life.
Before he was pushed closer to the chariot, he was about to have a seizure when he heard a somewhat familiar voice above his head: "Are you Agala?" "It's a very pure Khitan dialect!
Agala was slightly startled, looked up, only to see a solemn monk sitting on the chariot, the face is vaguely acquainted, the sun has been slanted to the west, the sun shines from the side of the monk, the chariot is covered with a bronze mirror again, the reflection shè is like the light of the Buddha, people see more admiration, Buddhism has long been rooted in Mobei, although it has not yet achieved dominance, but many tribal chiefs believe in Buddhism, and there are many people who believe in Buddhism in the Khitan tribe. Agara also has the belief in the Buddha in his heart, although he is not very firm, but when he sees the monk on the chariot, he almost wants to worship.
But the dignity of the leather room army still made him let out a cold snort, stood up straight and said, "How do you know my name!" "It's also Khitan.
The monk on the high car did not answer, and the monk next to him had already shouted: "Don't be rude to the living Buddha of Zanhua!" β
"Living Buddha?" Agala sneered, and was about to say a few mean words, when suddenly he remembered something, looked up and recognized it carefully, and exclaimed, "Zanhua...... Nikoyo...... Be...... Person...... The Emperor of Man! β
Yelubei shaved his hair and took refuge, his Dharma name Zanhua, and was revered as a living Buddha by the Northwest Buddha, and the Tiance regime did not hide it, so many forces knew about it.
Agala recognized it again, threw himself on his knees, climbed to the side of the car, climbed on the wheel of the chariot, and hissed: "The king of men! Be...... It's your old man! β
The monks on the high car said together: "Poor monk Zanhua." Vulgar titles, no need to mention again. β
As soon as Agala found out the identity of the monk on the high car, he didn't dare to resist in his heart, and kowtowed: "Yes, living Buddha!" β
On the high car, the living Buddha of Zampa said: "Do you know my name? Did you inquire about me? β
Yelu Ruan is a Chinese name, and his Khitan name is Yelu Wu yΓΉ.
Agala cried, "The Emperor of the People...... Ah, the living Buddha, the king of Yongkang once sent someone to sneak into the territory of Tiance, inquired about the news of my lord, and heard that my lord had entered the Buddha mΓ©n, and once faced the south and cried. β
Zanhua Living Buddha laughed and said, "Taking refuge in Buddha is a great joy, what are you crying for?" My heart rejoices now more than I have a thousand miles of land. Agala, you are also my old department, see you again today, it is also the fate of the Dharma, would you like to take refuge with me, enter my mΓ©n, and protect the Dharma for me? β
Agala looked up, but Jue Zanhua Living Buddha was surrounded by brilliance, hurriedly bowed down, and crawled in front of the car and said: "To be extradited by the Living Buddha, that is the blessing of Agala X." Akara is willing to receive the will of the Living Buddha and be the protector of the Living Buddha forever. β
Li Bin, Shi Jian, Murong Yang and others congratulated each other when they saw it, and Zanhua Living Buddha smiled and said: "If you live a lifetime of people, you will have one less killing and abuse." The millennium luΓ n of Mobei starts from two words, one is greedy, and the other is yΓn. If you are greedy, you love property, and you will raise a sword with things; yΓn and unlimited, so that the number of children is too numerous, the world is limited, and the pasture has an end, and the yΓnyΓΉ is unlimited, the life is endless, and the days are long, and finally there are thousands of miles of pasture that cannot support the infinite descendants. For the sake of greed for yΓn and raise sword soldiers, sword soldiers kill people, there will be retribution! The Xiongnu and the Turks are all Yin Jian. Only by stopping greed and precepts, only Buddhism can make the north and south of the desert, and the wisdom of the desert can be removed from greed, and the Buddha can be saved from the precepts, so that there is true peace. The old monk went east this time, if he couldn't spend the desert north, he vowed not to return to the west. β
Li Bin sighed when he heard this: "Senior brother is so hearted, he deserves the title of living Buddha among the people. β
When the monks heard such a grand wish, they praised the Buddha's name and bowed down to the Dharma chariot.
The officers and men of the Tang Army also saluted.

Handara Valley.
The soldiers of the four prefectures of the orphan army were divided into two roads, from the left and right chΔ into the valley of the Handala River, Chai Rong led the generals, followed closely behind the fourth mansion, and along the way he did not seek merit, but sought no fault.
This time, the ambush of the fifth and sixth provinces was in the northwest of the Handala River Valley, and Chai Rong's ambush site was in the southwest of the Handala River Valley.
The fourth province of the orphan army took advantage of the situation to rush into the camp, and at the same time the fifth province rushed down from the north, under the attack on both sides, the Khitan soldiers were shocked, and it was too late to stick to the camp, and there were soldiers who had already stormed outside, turning into a local hΓΊn battle. Among them, there are hundreds of people who are very strong in combat and very tightly organized!
Chai Rong said in his heart: "These people, could it be the legendary leather room?" He raised his sword and shouted: "The great husband has made great achievements, right now!" β
His words lacked the power of Gu HuΓ², but the arrangement was well organized, dividing the whole province into five columns and ordering them to fight out from the two wings of the fourth mansion!
Suddenly, 1,300 new forces came, and no matter how strong the Khitan was, they couldn't resist the enemy, so they were defeated and fled again, and abandoned the camp and retreated eastward! But that part of the generals was still very brave, and they were broken off against Tang Cai's attack. Tang Jun raised his eyes, but saw that the core of that army was erecting the banner of Yelu Ruan!
Seeing this banner, the soldiers of all the provinces were ecstatic.
The Governor of the Fourth Prefecture looked at Yelu Ruan's banner, pointed to the banner and said, "Winning the banner, we are the first credit!" Rushing ahead, nearly a thousand young soldiers heard the shouts and galloped towards Yelu Ruan's banner together.
On the battlefield, the bloody anger exaggerated each other, the orphan army was a group of teenagers, it was easy for them to have the courage to fight bravely, but it was difficult for them to stay calm and think in a state of fanaticism, at this time, even the three hundred jΔ«ng Rui old troops in the field were excited, and the three masters also thought: "If we can cut the banner, no matter whether the big boss succeeds or fails in the future, we will definitely be able to gain a firm foothold in the Tang army." β
Therefore, the fourth province galloped first, and the other provinces galloped on the whole line, and everyone refused to lag behind, and the formation was slightly disordered.
In the entire Handala River Valley, only Chai Rong remained calm, and he pondered: "Although the battle is fierce, if it is really the main force of the leather room, this camp will be broken. Yin shouted: "Be careful, the strength of the Khitan has not yet bottomed out, so don't be rash!" β
But he is alone, but where can he stop the heart of the young soldiers in Zhufu. Even the Fifth Mansion has allocated more than half of its troops to compete with the Fourth Mansion! Only the Sixth Mansion was left behind, and it was expected that there was no hope of capturing the flag, so the lieutenant reorganized his troops and horses and cleaned up the battlefield after hearing Chai Rong's words.
Here, Chai Rong restrained the generals and ordered them not to attack. He also ordered the double-toothed knife wolf camp to rest on the spot and not to attack, and the three masters were indignant, thinking that Chai Rong was deliberately discriminating against them.
With the Fourth Mansion as the vanguard, a thousand cavalry swept away, driving the Khitan defeated army to the eastern gap of the Handala River Valley, looking at the banner that had been shot to Yelu Ruan, suddenly there was a loud cry on both sides, and there were 1,000 soldiers and horses killed each, and the soldiers of the Fourth Mansion were surprised at a glance: "There are ambush soldiers!" β
After all, most of them are teenagers, they have not experienced many battle formations, and they are unstoppable when they put their horses on the impact, and at this time they suddenly encountered ambushes but they couldn't help but panic, and the two ambushes suddenly appeared, rushing to the positions of the fourth and fifth provinces, cutting off the two provinces, and straightening the middle and front sections of the fourth mansion, and surrounded the hundred horsemen who rushed to the front together with the lieutenants of the fourth mansion.
ββββββββ
On a mountain peak in the distance, Yelu Ruan looked at the battle situation and laughed, and said to Yelu An next to him: "That Ba Ye, the news sold is true, it is indeed a group of newcomers!" Because of the order: "Wait for Baye to drive the defeated troops of the Tang Army back, give him a pot of good wine, and then give him the lack of ** in the southwest, if he makes meritorious service again, this king will have another heavy reward!" β
Yelu An arranged the follow-up military matters, and said: "This kind of reaction between life and death cannot be faked, this is a group of newcomers. It seems that Zhang Mai sent them this time in an attempt to disturb the rear of our Mobei with a partial division, and to luΓ n our army into the Central Plains. β
For the high-level leaders of the Hu-Han side, this victory or defeat is actually of little significance, and whether the Handara Valley is captured is even more dispensable, and it is more important to peek into the strategic deployment of the other side from the troop strength of both sides in this battle.
Yelu Ruan smiled: "Zhang Mai and my second uncle (Yelu Deguang) thought of going together. Didn't the second uncle also want our detachment to disturb and test the reality of the North Garden? However, since Zhang Mai's main force is in the south, then I don't want sΔo to disturb. β
It turned out that this time Yelu Ruan was a plan, with his own banner as a bait, leading the orphan army to attack the four mansions, the four mansions rushed into the unstoppable, Khitan with five hundred leather rooms as the core, thousands of miscellaneous tribes as the periphery, retreating and wearing down the Tang army's sharpness, and then the ambush composed of two thousand troops of the close tribe suddenly killed, and hit the Tang army's formation, as soon as the fourth lieutenant was surrounded, the killing momentum of the orphan army was one of them.
At this time, the battle for the gap in the eastern gap of the Handara Valley was still going on, and the miscellaneous troops slowly withdrew from the battlefield and carried out additional missions.
Yelu Anjun had already arranged for the miscellaneous generals to block the exit of the Handala River Valley, and while commanding 3,000 troops from the close tribe to besiege the Fourth Prefecture, he also sent 300 cavalry to take the head of the Fourth Governor of the Tang Army.
In the first half of the Fourth Mansion, more than 200 people were surrounded by thousands of horsemen, and they could not move forward, and they could not retreat after several turns, and they could not retreat, and the three hundred leather rooms were close to dozens of steps away in the time of a stick of incense, and the young soldiers shouted: "Protect the captain, protect the captain!" β
The Lieutenant of the Fourth Mansion said angrily: "What to protect, rush me!" Rush over and we'll win! β
Tang army generals, who hasn't thought that they would be as brave as Shi Ba to crown the three armies? Who hasn't thought of fighting a bloody alley in the midst of thousands of troops like Yang Xin? However, Shi Ba and Yang Xin are not everywhere, and the prestige of the fourth lieutenant seems too immature after all, and the leather room in front is coming, and he wants to counterattack and capture the enemy's head, but where is the enemy leader of the Tang army, Yelu Ruan? If you can't find where the enemy leader is, how can you use all the strength of your body?
The three hundred leather rooms are getting closer and closer, and where they pass, people are dead and horses are overturned, and in the second half of the fourth mansion, the deputy lieutenant shouted: "Save the lieutenant!" The Fifth Mansion shouted: "Hurry up and save the Fourth Mansion!" "But he was blocked by the ambush soldiers, and his own position was rushed by the ambush soldiers just now, where would he rush through it for a while and a half?
Seeing that the three hundred skin rooms were close to the fourth governor, and the situation was precarious, the horn sounded behind him, and Chai Rong arrived!
"It's the Third House! Brother of the Third House! β
Chai Rong shouted from behind: "Brother of the Fourth Mansion, follow me to rescue your captain!" β
Chen Fengxiao and Shi Octopus took the lead on two wings, attacking from the left and right, and the soldiers of the Fourth Mansion followed behind, slashing with horizontal knives and spears, and finally broke into the opponent's army, and received the Captain of the Fourth Mansion before the three hundred skin rooms!
Geng Xin rushed close and shouted, "Captain Lu, Captain Chai asks you to rush back against the horse." The enemy has an ambush, we have to retreat! β
The Governor of the Fourth Prefecture gritted his teeth and shouted: "Yelu Ruan's banner has not been captured yet, and the task has not been completed, what face do I have to go to see Shi Dudu!" β
Geng Xin persuaded: "We have destroyed the other party's Dazhai, and it can be regarded as a success." β
Lu Duwei of the Fourth Mansion looked at the two teams of men and horses in the surrounding Fourth Mansion, and Yelu Ruan's banner was only a hundred steps away, but it was unattainable! The three hundred leather room troops had already come closer, and Chen Feng laughed at the stone octopus and fought hard, so he stopped it.
The deputy lieutenant of the fourth mansion also rushed over and shouted, "Lieutenant, let's retreat!" Chai Duwei's judgment was correct. β
Lu Duwei was helpless, so he had to sigh secretly and order a counterattack.
Chai Rong is not a battle-fighting general, among the nine captains of the orphan army, he is the only one who often goes into battle and often stays in the back, so although he has the most obvious credit among the nine captains, he is often ridiculed by the soldiers of the orphan army for his lack of bravery. But at this time, Chai Rong's strengths were revealed, and in the face of the LuΓ n Bureau, only the third of the four prefectures in the river valley did not have the slightest luΓ n.
He first sent Chen Fengxiao and Shi Octopus to rescue the lieutenant of the Fourth Mansion, and he led the troops to counterattack the ambush, so that the Fifth Mansion, which was beaten by the ambush soldiers, also had a room to regroup.
After rescuing his comrades from the two provinces, he took the third government as the palace army and slowly retreated westward. The troops of the Third Mansion were neatly organized, and although the Khitan more than 3,000 people were strong in combat and defeated with victory, Chai Rong still resisted under repeated impacts, making the Khitan unable to crush it.
With the passage of time, it has been three hours since the orphan army of Sifu rushed into the valley of the Handala River, and the strength of the two sides gradually weakened, just when the Khitan carried out the fourth round of impact, suddenly three hundred horsemen rushed out, and it was a fierce killing of the oncoming Khitan army!
These three hundred horsemen were like a new force that had just entered the battlefield, and after rushing into the Khitan, they slashed wildly, killing dozens of people in a row, and the Khitan leather room was slightly startled: "The Tang army also has reserves!" β
These 300 people are actually jΔ«ng rui left by Baye, Chai Rong thought that they were not well trained, and they had not trained with the soldiers of the third government, and they did not cooperate well with each other, and they could not command as they pleased, so they did not need to rush into battle to save people, but let them rest in the back, and only then did they suddenly release it, and sure enough, it worked wonders.
After the Khitan counterattack organized by Chai Rong, the offensive was slightly restricted, and Chai Rong raised his gun to command, escorting the soldiers of the two provinces to retreat to the center of the river valley. The Sixth Mansion came to respond, and the defeat of the Tang army stopped.
ββββββββββ
Yelu'an praised: "In this mansion of the Tang Army, the generals command very calmly, which is very good. I'm afraid it's a veteran. β
Yelu Ruan said with a smile: "Thousands of troops, they can't all be little kids, and it's not unusual to have one or two veterans. β
The ministry asked if he would continue to attack, and Yelu Ruan smiled: "No need, retreat to the valley and trap them." β
At present, he has 7,000 miscellaneous people, arranged them at the six entrances and exits of the river valley.
ββββββββββ
The Tang army over there saw that the surprise attack was futile, and knew that the Khitan had already prepared, and it was almost dusk, and the soldiers of the four prefectures who entered the river valley worked in vain, although they captured the opponent's camp, but their sharpness was greatly reduced. When the generals met, they all felt that they had fallen into the enemy's trap, and at the moment they took the sixth government as the vanguard and the third government as the palace army, preparing to retreat.
The Sixth Mansion walked due west of the gap, when it was about to go out of the river valley, the gap suddenly made a loud noise, hundreds of war horses rushed out, cut off the road out of the valley, smoke and dust rolled and flew, I really don't know how many ambushes, stones and trees fell on the towering mountain walls on both sides, shè flew arrows, and the first team of the Sixth Mansion Striker was faced by cold arrows, turned over and died.
The orphan army was exhausted at the moment, and the lieutenant of the sixth mansion was taken aback and hurriedly ordered to retreat.
The Governor of the Fifth Mansion said: "This road has been blocked, find another way out!" β
Chai Rong said: "Send scouts first." "I sent scouts to explore the way, but I found that there were ambushes in every gap out of the valley!
All the lieutenants said angrily: "Damn, we were fooled!" β
Lu Duwei of the Fourth Mansion said: "We have joined forces in the four mansions and rushed out, I will see who can stop us!" β
Chen Duwei of the Fifth Mansion said: "At the exit of the river valley, the largest can only allow eight horses to enter together, and the soldiers of the four provinces cannot go together, so the combat power can only rely on the strong, not the more." We fought for most of the day, and even if the strength of the men was still there, the horses were tired. And there are ambushes outside the valley mouth that I am most afraid of. Then we'll die when we rush out. β
Lu Duwei said: "Were you stunned by the battle in the east just now?" Scared like this. If you don't rush now, are you waiting for death here! β
"This valley is not a dead place." Chai Rong said: "They plug the gap in the river valley, it is not easy for us to get out, but if they attack from all sides, then they will lΓΉ flaws, and then we can rush out by assault from the weaker side." β
Chen Duwei said: "Does Chai Duwei also advocate resting horsepower? β
Chai Rong said: "No, let's let the main force rest first, but send a small force to conduct a tentative attack." There are so many gaps in this valley that they can't plug them all. Even if all of them are blocked, it is impossible to arrange heavy troops for every gap, and there must be strong and weak. As long as we find out the strength and weakness, it is not difficult to rush out. Besides, although we have suffered losses this time, not counting the wounded soldiers, we still have 3,600 soldiers and horses, as long as we rest and recuperate, and when everyone recovers and rushes with strength, we will have a chance to break out of the encirclement. β
Liu Duwei of the Sixth Mansion said: "Since this is the case, then let's rest for one night." β
Lu Duwei said: "Rest for one night? I'm afraid that the Khitan has tricks again! β
Chai Rong was silent in his heart, and suddenly said: "The Khitan trick should be outside the valley, not ours." β
The other three captains asked, "What do you mean?" β
Chai Rong said: "Now is our weakest time, but the Khitan did not continue to attack, obviously they are planning to trap us, since they are using trapping without killing, then they are probably going to use us as bait to attack our reinforcements." β
All the generals have received strategic and tactical training, but when they first learned, they were only talking on paper, but when they really went to the battlefield, it was already good to be able to use one or two percent of the knowledge they had learned in ordinary life. At this time, when Chai Rong mentioned it, he was really frightened.
Fifth Mansion Chen Duwei said: "That's right! That's right. This time, the wolf smoke came faster than expected, but until now, the reinforcements behind have not arrived, and it is slower than expected, and the Khitan must have arranged another trick! β
At this time, a deputy lieutenant said: "The Khitans want us to be yΓ²u bait and surround the point to send reinforcements!" β
The fourth Fu Lu Duwei said: "Then what should I do? β
Chai Rong said: "It's better to rest first." On the one hand, small troops were sent to test the deployment of the gaps. In any case, we have to raise enough jΔ«ng gods first, and then we can adapt to the situation. β
Lu Duwei of the Fourth Mansion said: "But what if our comrades fall into the trap of the Khitans and fall into an ambush!" β
Chai Rong said: "Since we can all see the trap, Shi Dudu and An Sima will not be able to see it?" We have to trust Shi Dudu. β
After today's battle, Chai Rong's status in the minds of the deputy lieutenants of the prefectures has been invisibly much higher, and these few sentences of analysis are well organized, so even Captain Lu was persuaded by him.
ββββββββββ
To the west, An Shouzhi's eyebrows were tightly pressed together.
At the beginning, his plan was to use the seventh, eighth, and ninth prefectures as ambushes, and to invite the first and second prefectures to defeat and invite the battle, leading out the main Khitan force.
Unexpectedly, the shape of the battlefield changed rapidly, the first and second mansions were faked and defeated, and after retreating to the ambush site, the ambush soldiers of the latter three mansions set off wolf smoke to kill, this time, the rhythm of An Shouzhi was all beaten: because the two mansions were really defeated, the retreat was too fast, and the time for the wolf smoke to be set off was advanced; At the same time, the really defeated army could not effectively cooperate with the ambush to counter the pursuers, and the wild was cunning like a fox wolf, and immediately retreated when he saw that something was wrong, and the other two also retreated, and the ambush could not hit the Khitan hard.
At the same time, the soldiers of the four provinces who were ambushed outside the valley of the Handala River had already rushed into the valley, but they did not come out after they entered, and An Shouzhi was worried, only afraid that the soldiers of the four provinces had already encountered an accident.
He was about to send reinforcements, but An Shouzhi's habit was to plan and then take it, since the Khitan had seen through his plan, he had to make another arrangement, and at the same time sent scouts to explore along the way, but found that there seemed to be Khitan soldiers and horses between the forests and rocks in the Handala River Valley, he frowned and said: "What does this mean!" β
"Probably," Shi Ba said, "I want to surround up and send reinforcements." β
Encircling the point to send reinforcements is Tiance Tang Army's forte, from the new Broken Leaf City to the present, Shi Ba has experienced I don't know how many times, most of the time it is Zhang Mai who calculates others, so although Shi Ba is not a wise general, he is also very familiar with this routine.
An Shouzhi actually thought about it and said, "We all miscalculated this time!" The calculation of the Khitan failed, but the Khitan was calculated. Ambush and send reinforcements, and the soldiers are not in jΔ«ng Rui. If you want to ambush us, if it's a leather room, one or two thousand men will suffice. β
Shi Ba said: "If there is a combination of terrain, as long as there are a few hundred people, plus one or two thousand people from other tribes, it is enough." β
An Shouzhi said: "If we march cautiously and can't get there before dark, then the Khitans can make another troop deployment." If we march in a hurry, we are afraid that we will fall into the trap of the Khitan. That would be even more dangerous. But if you march cautiously, it will be dark before you reach the valley, and it will be even more dangerous to fight in the dark. However, there is no danger to defend in the valley of the Nahandala River, and Chai Rong's life and death are unknown after they enter. If we go late, the Khitan will see that we are slow, and they will definitely concentrate all their efforts to destroy the four prefectures in the valley first. β
He thought about it, but he felt that it was a dilemma!
An Shouzhi thought for a while and said, "Although the Handala River Valley is not a dead place, in the case of being outnumbered and tired, it is not bad that Chai Rong and them can escape half of it." β
He was one of the deputy chief instructors of the Orphan Army, and he had a deep affection for these teenagers, and when he thought of such an ending, he couldn't help but say, "It's my fault!" Governor, please allow me to bring in troops to save them. β
If in the past, Shi Ba must have asked for his life to attack, but now Shi Ba is no longer the same young man as he was at the beginning, he instead sank up and said, "That's a fire pit, are you still going to jump?" β
An Shouzhi said: "These are orphans who have lost their parents in previous wars, and the marshal also said: We train them to be soldiers to give them a hope, not to make them cannon fodder!" Now I've made the wrong decision, so that they've fallen into the valley, and I can't go and save them! β
Shi Ba's brows also furrowed, and said: "Yang Dadu taught me a sentence: mercy is not in charge of soldiers, and righteousness is not in charge of wealth. If you are merciful in battle, you are not afraid of influencing your decision-making. β
An Shouzhi said: "Our army is only a partial division, and it can be defeated, but it can't afford to lose so many young soldiers." The soldiers of the four mansions can't help but save! β
Shi Ba said: "Then what if you encounter an ambush and the people you brought are also trapped? β
An Shouzhi said: "I can only be cautious along the way. As long as you can rush to the Handara River Valley before dark, and join forces with the soldiers and horses in the valley, you should be able to save the four prefectures. The first and second provinces were defeated without success, and the second governor was even more killed, not only did his morale drop greatly, but he also did not support the long battle. I ask the governor to allow me to lead the three provinces to rush to the rescue, the stone governor sits in the rear, if I can save the four provinces in the valley, it is the best, if not, the governor you have the seven provinces in hand, there is still a chance to turn the tables. β
The governors of all the prefectures who attended the meeting also asked for war and wanted to rescue the four prefectures.
Shi Ba's head was a little big when he heard it, he was not a talent with seven plans, so he arranged An Shouzhi to be his staff officer, but now seeing that An Shouzhi seems to be a little hΓΊnluΓ n, Shi Ba has also been affected. Shi Ba faintly felt that the situation might not be as bad as An Shouzhi thought, even if the Khitan won the first move, he might not have completely controlled the battle situation, but this was just his intuition, and he couldn't express his intuition like Zhang Mai, and turn it into an agitation that could conquer the generals.
At this moment, according to Shi Ba's own decision, that is, regardless of the three-seven-twenty-one, he led all the horses to rush over and fight Yelu Ruan. After a period of silence, Shi Ba said: "This kind of breaking battle, I am more suitable than you, so let's go." β
An Shouzhi refused, and said: "In this Eastern Crusade, Master Li is the governor of political affairs, and the governor is the commander of the road, not only the soldiers of the fifteen prefectures here, but also the generals under General Shi Jian and General Murong Yang must also listen to the orders of the governor, the victory or defeat of Handala has nothing to do with the overall situation, if I go to a mistake, it will not affect the overall situation, but if the governor has a mistake, will the army of this road have to be eroded?" β
The generals also said: "In such a big battle, there is no reason for the commander to charge and get into danger." β
Shi Ba couldn't tell him, so he had to say, "Okay, you order the soldiers and horses first, and I will come to support you later." β
An Shouzhi took the seventh, eighth, and ninth mansions as reinforcements and rushed to the Handala River Valley. He is a keen and attentive man, and along the way, he can still keep his eyes and ears open despite his speed, and make sure that he does not fall into the trap of the enemy.
Over there, Shiba reorganized his troops and horses, especially to integrate the first and second governments that had broken morale.
He called his own veterans of the guard, and after arranging military affairs, he complained: "This time the Metropolitan Governor has arranged, why did you arrange for me to block the major affairs alone?" How good is it for me to be just a pioneer? β
A veteran said: "When you broke the leaves, you were already in charge. With my Datang General as the vanguard, it is inevitably overkill. β
"That's different." Shi Ba said: "There was no battle when I was there in Broken Leaves, and when there were battles, they were all simple battles, not as complicated as here." β
In fact, the situation of Broken Leaf is not simple, but the complexity of Broken Leaf lies in government affairs, but government affairs do not need Shi Ba's direct hand, he guards Broken Leaf by his prestige, if a small group of rebellion appears, Shi Ba only needs to rush to Meiping, so it is not like when he is alone in the army, so he needs to be carefully considered.
The military arrangements for this attack on Mobei are the secrets of the secret in the Tiance Tang Army, and even Shi Ba's eastward journey is also to point the army to leave the broken leaves and tour Huangcaobo (now Aibi Lake in Xinjiang) to the east, which is an important town in the east of the military region under the jurisdiction of Shi Ba, and the generals of the Central Plains are regulated, and they are generally stationed in the central town, and they are not allowed to go out of the city at will unless they are ordered or in case of war, but in the Western Regions and Mobei, it is also common for the general to inspect all parties, and a tour is usually a few months. After arriving at Huangcaobo, Shi Ba suddenly led five hundred guards, broke away from the camp, and rushed to Luntai to obey orders. There, Shi Jian passed on Zhang Mai's secret order and appointed Shi Ba as the commander of the first road to take over the army.
In this military operation, it is extremely difficult to appoint Zhang Mai in Shi Ba's current position. Zhang Mai is not unaware of the advantages and disadvantages of Shi Ba, and he also knows that in terms of comprehensive elements, it is not for nothing that there are people with a higher balance than Shi Ba. However, this road army is too special, not only in terms of military strength and strategic level, it must be a person above the governor level to command, and at the same time, because it is necessary to protect the living Buddha of Zanhua, who has a very high political status, so the commander of this road must not only have considerable ability, but also have a considerable prestige status, and people who are not at the level of generals cannot do it. In addition, there are still some dragon-inlaid iron armor troops in this army, so they must also be people who are quite close to Zhang Mai, otherwise how can they bring the dragon-inlaid iron armor army to him?
Prestige, status, cronies, as soon as these conditions are made, there are only a few people left such as Guo Luo and Yang Yi, and even Guo Wei, Ma Jirong, and Xue Fu are not too suitable - not to mention that Guo Xue and the two are also needed in the south, but Yang Yi needless to say, Guo Luo also has to sit in the west, and he really can't leave.
Shi Ba complained: "How good it would be if Uncle Guo didn't die, if he was the coach of the way, I would rather be a pawn for him to charge into battle!" The Uncle Guo he said was Guo Shiyong, who died in the previous martyrdom. It's not that Shi Ba doesn't want to participate in this Mobei War, on the contrary, if Zhang Mai doesn't let him participate, Shi Ba is afraid that he will have opinions afterwards. But the current position is not what Shi Ba likes. Shi Ba thought that such a sudden airborne to lead a large army with complex components was only suitable for people like Yang Yi, Guo Luo, and Guo Shiyong.
Another veteran said: "Don't be presumptuous, don't you say that appointing you as the commander of this road is not only the meaning of Governor Yang, but also the marshal." The marshal's order, then what is wrong? β
When Shi Ba heard this, he said, "That's right." The marshal will not be wrong, but why are we tied in front of us? β
The old soldier said: "That's the governor, you listen to General An too much!" You are the governor, why do you listen to An Sima for everything? β
Shi Ba laughed and said: "I don't want to listen to him, but he is a military advisor, and his analysis makes sense." β
The old soldier said: "When General Dashi gave the order, the marshal borrowed the words passed by General Dashi, does the governor still remember?" β
Shi Ba was stunned, and then remembered that when Shi Jian passed the order, Shi Ba also had two insincere complaints after receiving the order - the person who would unabashedly complain in this situation, the entire Tiance Tang Army was afraid that there was only one Shi Ba, which was also a reflection of the close relationship between Shi Ba and Zhang Mai. But Zhang Mai seemed to expect Shi Ba to have doubts, so he said to Shi Ba through Shi Jian's mouth: "Little stone, don't be afraid, you can do it!" Let go and fight this battle, and you can do it! You are my blessed general! β
"Blessed generals? Does that mean I want to go and fight according to my feelings? Shi Ba looked to the southeast, suddenly smiled, and said: "Brother Mai, Brother Mai, I'm still not suitable to be a commander, since this is the case, then I'd better be a fierce general." Immediately ordered: "Call me the two bunnies in the first and second provinces!" Damn, I've been training in Luntai for so long, and I'm still losing on the spot. Shame on you! Damn it, tell these little bitches to come along and follow me to see what the real battle is! β
ββββββββ
In the valley of the Handala River, Chai Rong ordered everyone except for the defenders to rest on the spot, and he himself painted on the sand by the river. β
Chai Rong didn't answer, he was really embarrassed to answer. Because what he was thinking about at the moment was the layout and breakthrough of the whole battle. The paintings on the sand are the only ones he knows. He drew for a while and said: "This is a question that only the governor and the marshal have to think about, I'm just a lieutenant, what do you want to do?" Let's think about how we can break through the siege in front of us. β
At this moment, the Handala River Valley was isolated from the inside and outside, and Chai Rong did not know the situation outside at all, nor could he get news of reinforcements from the rear.
If Shi Ba was here, he wouldn't have thought so much at this moment, and he didn't even bother to investigate, he just had to wait for the horsepower to rest, and when he gave an order, he would find a gap and rush it, which would be the siege of 100,000 troops, and he was confident that he would break out of a gap.
But Chai Rong is not a stone bare, and the Handara Valley is still a net that is not easy to break through for him.
If Chai Rong and Shi Ba are in another place at this moment, the "trouble" in front of them is not a trouble for the two of them, and charging into battle is enjoyable for Shi Ba, planning and planning and Chai Rong.
However, they are not each other at the moment.
