Chapter 194: Sweat and Blood Shadows

In the early hours of winter, the wind is very cold, colder than the night. To read the latest chapters, please lock the biquge.info of Aishang Novels

In last night's battle, both Hu and Han suffered heavy losses. Whether it is the Modao Tomahawk Formation or the Leather Room Army, it is not the kind of strong army that can be recruited if you want to recruit and can be trained if you want to, and the combination of its physique, willpower and combat experience has its particularity, and in some eras, it is impossible to even produce some such strong troops.

Therefore, when Liu Heihu had five or six feather arrows stuck in his shoulders and back, his left ear was cut by flying stones, and he returned to Huanma Heights with a group of remnants, the grief in Xi Sheng's heart was indescribable.

And the same is true of Yelu Deguang, all kinds of soldiers and horses in the whole Khitan territory can mobilize a million troops, but the heart of the abdomen is such a number, more than 400 people, it is like stripping him of a piece of meat, although the meat is small, but it can make him feel pain!

On the contrary, he did not pay much attention to the subordinate troops, even if they had ten times the losses, and those troops could be replenished by recruitment and training.

Liu Heihu only heaved when the military doctor pulled out the last feather arrow, the slanted light of his eyes saw that the feather arrow was his own standard, and saw the guilt on Xi Sheng's face, and said with a smile: "Old Xi, don't be like this, you can't die!" In last night's situation, I would have had to do it if I had changed! Even though the brothers died, they did not complain! He spoke in a hurry, and coughed up a mouthful of blood.

Xi Sheng shouted: "Stop talking, take a break." ”

Liu Heihu snorted: "Rest! Can't rest! The Khitan will call in the blink of an eye, I can still bear this little injury, you just have to give the order! ”

Xi Sheng said: "After last night's battle, the Khitan's tactics must be adjusted, and the next style of play will not be the same, but when the next big attack begins, it may be more dangerous than last night...... "They ...... I guess it's already started......"

――――――――――――

Although the Khitan generals did not take the Tiance Tang army very seriously, even Yelu Deguang often had arrogant words between his words, it should be said that in this battle, except for reckless men like Yelu Heng, most of the Khitan soldiers would be cautious when facing the Tang army.

Otherwise, the class, Tu Ligu and the others would not have thought about how to deal with the Modao Battle Axe Formation before it was launched, and as for Yelu Deguang, he saw Zhang Mai's threat to himself, otherwise he would not have launched such a war of alluring the country.

However, the battle on the Huanma Heights still made the Khitans once again readjust their evaluation of the Tiance Tang Army in their minds.

"It's really powerful, it deserves to be the world-famous Mo Sword Battle Axe Array!" Said in class.

And beside him was Zaccoth.

"This shouldn't be counted," Sajah looked at Xiao Shili, who was cleaning up the mess, and said, "Since the start of the war, we haven't given each other a chance to advance head-on, and last night was similar to a scuffle, and the power of the Mo Dao should not have been fully exerted." ”

"We're not stupid!" The class sneered: "Since we know that Mo Dao is good at frontal formation advancement, how can we give them such an opportunity!" However, in the case of such a melee last night, Xi Sheng can still cause our army to suffer such a large loss, which shows that his command ability is quite good, and the Modao Battle Axe Formation is indeed worthy of being the best soldiers in the world! ”

The two were silent for a moment, and the class said, "What do you think of it now?" ”

"Hmm......" Sachel groaned, "Then we have to see what Your Majesty is going to do." ”

In the class, he said: "This Huanma Heights must be laid, but last night's battle may slightly affect His Majesty's mind, perhaps...... Majesty will not be in such a hurry. ”

"What do you mean?"

In the class, he said: "In fact, we all understand that the Tang army has such a strong army, and when it is the way to form a village, it is to be prepared for battle, and the loss of a strong attack will be great, and the strategy on the top is to trap the enemy on wheels." ”

Both of them are Khitan famous generals, nodding their heads and knowing the end, some words don't need to be said so clearly, and Samu immediately knew that the meaning of the lesson was to continuously besiege the Huanma Heights, the Khitan army had an absolute numerical advantage over Xi Sheng, under the restrictions of the terrain, hundreds of thousands of troops could not rush up at the same time, but if the wheel war was carried out, it could make Xi Sheng's department lose time to rest, in the continuous positional war, no matter how strong the soldiers of the Modao and Tomahawk Formation were, they could withstand three or five days, but not seven or eight days, after all, people were not iron.

In the era of cold weapons, in the case that the weapons of the two sides have not opened up the gap, even if the strength has an advantage, there must be time to play.

After listening to the words in the class, Sabe said: "Let's not say whether His Majesty is willing to agree, even if His Majesty is willing to agree, we must beware of falling for the tricks of the Tang Army!" ”

"Trickery?"

"The terrain in this area is not extremely dangerous, nor is it completely impassable." Sacha said: "Previously, Yelu Wuzhi sent cavalry to bypass the heights of Huanma and attack Xi Sheng's back, but the small troops sent out were all gone! Although there are not many temptation soldiers and horses sent out by Yelu Wuqing, but there is a heart as the backbone among them, my Khitan troops, come and go suddenly, as fast as a bird, even if they encounter an ambush and are not enemies, at least they can retreat, even if they can't retreat, they can escape back with injuries, but this time they can't escape back! ”

The class also listened to some emotion, and said: "So after Huanma Heights, there must be an ambush of elite soldiers!" ”

"Not only elite soldiers, but also cavalry, elite cavalry known for their speed! It was a cavalry faster than our Khitan cavalry. ”

Hearing the eyebrows raised in the class, the Khitan cavalry came and went quickly, and there are only a handful of cavalry units that can compete with it today, and there are almost no cavalry in the world that can be faster than the Khitan iron cavalry! Even Zhang Mai's Longxiang Iron Armored Army, even Yang Yi's Yingyang cavalry could not be stronger than the Khitan Iron Cavalry

Unless it's ......

In the class, his eyebrows raised, and he said, "Sweat and Blood Cavalry Regiment!" ”

"That's right!"

In terms of comprehensive combat strength, the Sweat and Blood Cavalry Regiment is not as good as Leather Room, Long Xiang, and Eagle Yang, but in terms of speed, it is the first in the world. Even his enemies couldn't deny it.

――――――――――

On the heights of Huanma, Liu Heihu whispered to Xi Sheng: "Xue Fu's side, is there any news?" ”

Xi Sheng said: "They have been prepared for a long time. But the key to their success lies in us! ”

"That's right." Liu Heihu said: "Xue Fu and they are rushing head-on, not as good as us, the iron bucket-like defense, not as good as Guo Wei's car formation, not as sharp as Long Xiang and Yingyang, but when it comes to speed, it is as fast as lightning!" If we can create a flaw in the Khitan army for them, so that they can advance suddenly, go straight to the Khitan henchmen, and even take the head of Yelu Deguang! Then we are the first to fight! ”

Xi Sheng said: "The key to this battle lies in a strange word!" We only have this one chance. ”

――――――――――

In the north of Malinghe, Sacai said to the class: "Although the Tang people are treacherous, this time they did it again, and annihilated all the people we sent, but they didn't expect that it was precisely because they were able to wipe out all the cavalry we sent that they exposed the traces of the sweaty cavalry regiment in the vicinity!" ”

He paused and said: "If you want to kill my Khitan light cavalry and not return, you must use sweat and blood cavalry, and it must be many times the siege to be foolproof, so the sweat and blood cavalry regiment must not be a few, but a large army!" Any information can be falsified, but the death of my Khitan disciple will not be falsified. ”

In the class, he said: "If this is the case, then the purpose of the Tang people this time is very clear!" ”

The two glanced at each other, and said at the same time: "Drag tired, beheaded!" ”

The heights were quiet again, and by this time the sun had risen, and a red sun hung in the eastern sky, shining on the frosty earth on both sides of the Maling River. Last night, a fierce battle had just ended, and an even more terrible war was about to follow.

In class, he sighed leisurely: "I didn't expect Zhang Mai to use this place as a decisive location!" ”

"It's because I didn't expect it that there is a possibility of victory." Sacha said: "Tiance and I, evenly matched, no need to fight head-on, in the end can only turn into a protracted war of attrition, if you want to achieve a big victory, you must be surprised, but surprise is risk." This time, Zhang Mai must have exhausted our army with a Mo sword and battle axe formation, and at the moment when our army showed its flaws, he quickly rushed in with a sweat and blood cavalry regiment to disrupt our Chinese army! Our army is in chaos, the camp is destroyed, the whole army must be withdrawn, and the morale is taken away, at that time, the Longxiang Iron Armored Army and the Yingyang Army will follow-up to cover, Zhang Mai will be able to achieve a great victory in this battle, within ten years, my Khitan soldiers and horses are afraid that they will no longer have the courage to step across the Yin Mountain. ”

The class sneered: "He is delusional! ”

Sacai said: "Whether it is delusional or not depends on how tough Xi Sheng is, and how fast Xue Fu is, but since Tang Jun has made such a plan, there is no need to rush to Qinzhou." For today's plan, how to lay out the plan, Zhang Mai threw out with two major partial fronts, and the main force was ambushed in the back, which was to use the two major partial fronts in exchange for a complete victory, but what if he couldn't win, and the partial front was eaten by us? ”

The class said with a smile: "If the Mo Sword Battle Axe Formation and the Sweat and Blood Cavalry Regiment are severely damaged at the same time, the Tang people will wither if they are undefeated!" Qinzhou doesn't take it, or if you don't take it, the city is easy to get, but it's hard to find! ”

Seeing that he had the same opinion as himself in the class, he said happily: "In this case, let's enter the meeting together!" ”

――――――――――――

In the Khitan camp, Tuyuhun was crying, and the Huhua Han soldiers were also crying.

Last night, their losses were the heaviest, but when they fled back to the camp, they got not the comfort of the boss, but the stern rebuke of Yelu Deguang!

Yelu Deguang's mood is extremely bad, you must know that last night is just a prelude to the current battle, if it is the final battle, it will be fine, but a prelude will lose four or five hundred hearts, how can Yelu Deguang's mood be good?

But his thunderous anger could not be inflicted on his own soldiersβ€”on the contrary, he had to comfort them, and at the same time he had to punish those responsible for the defeat of the leaderβ€”and this black cauldron was naturally carried by the Hu Hua Han soldiers and Tuyu Hun.

If it weren't for Han Yanhui's intercession, I was afraid that Bai Chengfu and the leaders of the Huhua Han soldiers would all have to lose their heads, but the death penalty could be avoided, and the living crime could not be escaped, Bai Chengfu and Mo Baique were stripped naked, and they were beaten forty leather whips in the morning wind, and the snowflakes and frost water went deep into the whip marks with the wind, and the pain made the two of them die and live.

Han Yanhui couldn't bear to see it, and asked for mercy after they were whipped more than a dozen times, but he was glared at by Yelu Deguang, and he was so frightened that he almost fell, Han Yanhui didn't dare to speak again, knowing that if he didn't know each other again, he was afraid that even he would have to be whipped next. Although he is very respected by Yelu Deguang in normal times, when it is really at the critical level, Yelu Deguang still kills if he wants to!

"Alasβ€”" He sighed, looking up to the sky, and suddenly remembered his son.

"Shu'er...... Hope you're alive...... If you're still alive......"

Suddenly, he had an expectation that the Central Plains would rebuild the Han and Tang dynasties, and that in that society, the scribes would at least have the protection of life and dignity, and that it would be much better for his children and grandchildren to live in a society with the protection of life and dignity than to be prosperous and wealthy but precarious.

However, this thought only flashed through him, and he shuddered, and he didn't dare to think about it anymore.

That night, the lights suddenly turned on under the big light, and Han Yanhui knew that it was Yelu Deguang who convened the generals to discuss the matter, so he hurried over, but he was blocked out.

"The prime minister stays!"

A Khitan soldier said in polite words, but his eyes were full of contempt.

Han Yanhui left gloomily and returned to his tent, when someone suddenly came to report that there was a fugitive who was captured by the party during the last war in the southern war, and brought news of his son. Han Yanhui was overjoyed and hurriedly called the escaped prisoner inside.

As soon as he entered the account, Han Yanhui recognized that the escaped prisoner was Han Deshu's personal guard, and asked, "How is Shu'er?" ”

The fugitive looked at the top of the tent, Han Yanhui realized it, and ordered him to retreat left and right, and when there were only two people left, the fugitive prisoner lowered his voice and said, "The son has returned to Marshal Zhang." ”

Han Yanhui was so frightened that he almost couldn't catch it, and said in a trembling voice: "What nonsense are you talking about!" ”

The escaped prisoner said: "Gongzi has already returned to Marshal Zhang." The fugitive repeated in a low voice, then took out another letter and presented it to Han Yanhui.

Han Yanhui took it uneasily, and looked under the lamp, sure enough, it was Han Deshu's handwriting, but it was Han Deshu's words of greeting his father, saying that he was in prison, suffering from the Tang Army's captivity and torture, and asked his father to try to save Yunyun.

Han Yanhui saw that the content of the letter did not match what the fugitive prisoner said, and glanced at the fugitive prisoner suspiciously, and the fugitive said: "By the way, the son said that when the prime minister read the letter, his subordinates still have a song to sing." And he sang the song, and the tune was not long, but it was very unpleasant, and it was not in tune. Han Yanhui carefully identified the tune, groaned slightly, took out a piece of paper, marked the tune with Gong Shang Jiao Zheng Yu, thought about it again, and tried to translate Gong Shang Jiao Zheng Yu into one, two, three, four, five, and the result turned this tune into a bunch of numbers such as "three, five, four, five".

He used the pile of numbers again, pondered the order, and then picked out the words from the letter to read, but it was thirteen words: "The detailed report that my father received before, and my son has fine-tuned it." When Han Yanhui saw it, his hands and feet were cold!

These thirteen words seem ordinary, but in fact, they are very interesting! Because Han Yanhui is the most familiar with the customs of the Han family in the entire Khitan camp, he also handles most of the affairs of sending spies to the Han land, although Yelu Wuzhi and others will also monitor this, but the actual operation of affairs is still Han Yanhui.

In recent years, Han Yanhui has become older, and Han Deshu is quite able to inherit his father's business, so there are many affairs Han Yanhui let his son accept, so Han Deshu knows at least seven or eight out of ten of the Khitan in Lianglan Gansu's fine work system, if Han Deshu really took refuge in Zhang Mai, with his understanding of the entire fine work system, how simple it is to lure this system to make a wrong judgment!

In other words, all the previous Khitan information about the Tiance Army in the Lianglan region may be all wrong! Or although it is not wrong, it is what Zhang Mai wants the Khitan people to know!

Even if he now takes this letter and this escaped prisoner to see Yelu Deguang, can Yelu Deguang still believe in himself? Even if he can still believe in himself, but just because he misreported the information before, this charge is enough for the Khitans to split their five horses!

Han Yanhui only felt that his hands and feet were getting colder and colder, and he was getting more and more icy, and in the end, he seemed to lose consciousness!

He blurted out and scolded: "Rebel! Unfilial son! ”

Han Deshu did not persuade Han Yanhui to follow him, but he had already cut off Han Yanhui's back road!

"In this battle, since the previous information is wrong, then Zhang Mai must take the lead!"

Han Yanhui still managed to keep his composure in the chaos: "If this is the case, then does our army still have a chance to win?" ”

At this time, he suddenly thought of Fang Cai again, and thought of the contemptuous corners of his mouth when the Khitan guard stopped him under that big curt, and the contempt cut around his heart like a knife, and he looked at the letter again, and this letter was like a rope around his neck!

A cold wind blew into the gap of the tent, blowing the candlelight swaying, and in the candlelight shaking, Han Yanhui almost spit out a sentence: "Zhang Mai...... You're so poisonous! ”

――――――――――

Under the Great Order, several of the closest ministers will be listed around.

However, at this time, there was one more person, and that was Xiao Mengsi, the head of the Khitan Hou clan - he commanded the Khitan Hou Army and had just arrived.

After listening to the analysis in Sachel and the class, Xiao Meisi said that it was very pertinent, but at this time, Yelu Deguang laughed.

Everyone was stunned, and Yerod said, "I have already thought of what you said!" ”

The generals were all shocked, Xiao Miansi was busy asking for details, and Yelu Deguang said: "This southern expedition is not the only foreign war in my Khitan, I have already arranged for people and horses to go to Luntai!" ”

Sachel and the others were surprised: "Luntai? ”

Yerod said: "If not, where do you think Cha Che and Xiao Han have gone?" Maybe Cha Che has already crossed the small gold mountain at this moment. Hmph, Zhang Mai doesn't transfer troops from Tianshan, if he transfers troops from Tianshan, at the end of this year, it will be the winter when the Tiance army collapses on all fronts! ”

――――――――――

Thirty miles south of the Horse Heights.

In the mountains and forests, there is a hidden military camp.

"Report! Governor! There is the latest battle report in the highlands! ”

In the barracks, a tall general took over the battle report, and the moonlight shone in and hit his face.

This was a very handsome face, but several scars gave it a charm of the years, he was no longer handsome, but even more intimidating!

However, this face, this person, should not have been here.

Tiance Tang Army's third governor after Guo Luo and Yang Yi - Xue Fu!
