Chapter 145: Miscalculation
*Big guy, give all the votes for today's push to the gunslinger! The gunman's push vote is very bleak to say!
Entering September, there is still a calm between Dingzhou and the grassland, Bayar has no other action except for letting the Qinghong two top to Luofengpo, which is hundreds of miles away from the upper forest, and there is no other action, it seems that Bayar has no plans to Dongkou this year after losing the upper forest. The stationing in Luofeng City was only to prevent the Dingzhou cavalry from penetrating deeper into the hinterland of the grassland.
But Li Qing faintly felt a little uneasy, if Bayar was the kind of surname who was willing to admit defeat, he would not have today's achievements, a generation of heroes, will always shoot in unexpected places for others, and a shot is definitely a fatal blow, Li Qing believes that under Bayar's calm surface, there must be some tricks brewing, as for the extent to which this trick has fermented, no one knows.
At this time in previous years, the smell of war could almost be smelled, and the two sides had long been tense, but this year it was strangely calm, and the people of Dingzhou were happy, thinking that after Li Dashuai's army seized Shanglinli, it had successfully deterred those grassland barbarians, and this year could pass in peace. But Dingzhou's top brass doesn't think so.
The restless Li Qing went to Shanglinli, accompanied by Lu Dalin, and inspected the entire city defense of Shanglinli, the main city of Shanglinli has been built, the surface work of Weibao has also been completed, and the periphery, one by one, the enclosed houses are connected by fences and earthworks, and the people have begun to burn the wasteland and turn over the land. They are going to plant wheat here, and in the coming year, it will be a fertile field with waves of wheat to provide an endless supply of food for the upper forest.
Standing at the head of the city in the upper forest, Li Qingdao said: "General Lu, has it been so calm in the past few months?" ”
"Yes, when Shanglinli first built the city, I was really worried, and I was wary of the barbarians' iron cavalry suddenly attacking, but as the city defense system in Shanglinli matured, I slowly put my mind at ease, it seems that the loss of Shanglinli has dealt a great blow to Bayar, and this year he has indeed died down."
Hearing that the experienced Lu Dalin also made such a judgment, Li Qing's heart relaxed a little.
"Has the sentry into Falling Phoenix City been going on?"
"The sentinels on both sides have been strangling each other in this more than 100 miles of garden, small-scale confrontations exist from time to time, for Luofeng City, the Qinghong two are extremely careful, our sentinels can't get close at all, once they get close, they will be killed by the other party's full strength, in the past few months, I have lost hundreds of people."
Li Qing's face changed slightly, "In other words, you haven't figured out what the blue and red departments are doing in Luofengpo?" ”
"I don't know, but I don't know what to do, no matter what the blue and red departments want to do, I just need to keep an eye on them in Luofengpo." Lu Dalin said, "If they want to attack Dingzhou, then Shanglin must take it, and if we hold here, we will choke the throat of the other party, and we are not afraid of what tricks they will play." ”
"What if the two of them don't do anything in Luofengpo?"
"Huh?" Lu Dalin didn't react, and looked at Li Qing, a little flustered.
"I mean, the Qinghong two divisions have a population of more than 100,000 and 70,000 or 80,000 elite soldiers, stationed in Luofeng City, and built a huge camp, but one has not stored food, and the other has not stored siege equipment, so where are they stationed for no purpose?"
Lu Dalin said in surprise: "This is impossible, in my opinion, Bayar wants to operate Luofengpo into a second Shanglinli, but Luofengpo is not enough to take on this important task in terms of geographical location or other aspects, so it can only be a temporary temporary base, and the other party will definitely store food and build siege equipment for attack." ”
Li Qing slammed the city wall hard, "No, General Lu, send a battalion of men and horses to raid Luofengpo and fight him in a blitzkrieg, I don't ask them to occupy Luofengpo, and I don't want them to cause much damage to the enemy, I just want to know, what is the other party doing in Luofengpo?" Bayar will never do this useless work, if the blue and red departments have always had the intention of attacking you, or even put it into action, then I can rest assured, but the current situation is really weird. ”
Lu Dalin hesitated for a moment, and immediately replied: "Yes, I will immediately send a cavalry to fight near Luofeng City to find out the truth." ”
Turning around, he said to the soldiers beside him: "Quickly pass on the Lu soldiers to participate in the future." ”
At the end of the day, Lu Dabing led three thousand Dingzhou iron cavalry out of Shanglin, and rushed to Luofeng City at a gallop, and in the official hall of Lu Dalin in Shanglin, Li Qing and Lu Dalin sat opposite each other, silently waiting for Lu Dabing's return.
At midnight, the rumbling sound of horses' hooves sounded outside the city, and there were bursts of cheers from the city, the two looked at each other, Lu Dabing came back, and after a while, Lu Dabing broke in with a bloody body, saluted the two, and said: "Dashuai, big brother, I'm back!" ”
"How?" Lu Dalin asked anxiously.
"It's okay, I rushed into the camp of the Red Department, went around in a circle and killed again, probably killed more than 100 people on the other side, and I also lost about the same number of men, these barbarians, have been dead behind me, until I saw the cavalry that met us, and did not return."
"I'm not asking you this, I'm asking what you see in the Red Camp?"
Lu Dabing thought for a moment, "Dashuai, it's really strange, there is indeed no siege equipment in the Red Department as you mentioned, and in terms of the intensity of their counterattack, there are not as many people as the original sentinels?" In my opinion, there are no more than 20,000 men in the Red Army's camp, including the old and weak, and at most 5,000 to 10,000 cavalry. ”
"If you attack the Red Ministry camp, how will the Green Department react?"
"The camp of the Qingbu is about ten miles away from the Red Division, and the two are arranged in a zigzag, and when I rushed out, I was afraid that they would come out of the camp to intercept it, but to my surprise, although the other party was on guard, he did not participate in the pursuit of me."
With a bang, Lu Dalin smashed his fist on the desk, shaking the things on the desk to jump high, "Fooled!" He said fiercely. The main forces of the two green and red divisions are afraid that they have already retreated.
"The GI has worked hard, you go and rest first!" Li Qing said calmly to Lu Dabing.
Seeing Lu Dabing turn around and leave the hall, Li Qing turned to look at the map hanging on the wall, "Bayar, what are you paying attention to?" He turned around and said to Lu Dalin: "No matter what attention he pays to, but these two people, it seems that Bayar is going to give them to me, General Lu, the whole army is pulling out these two nails for me." ”
"It's handsome!" Lu Dalin said loudly, feeling ashamed and annoyed, he had been deceived by these barbarians for so long, it seemed that after the two Qinghong troops were stationed in Luofengpo, they quietly withdrew the main force in a small part and left an empty shell to confuse themselves in Luofengpo, no wonder the scouts on both sides spared no effort to kill their scouts, it turned out that they were afraid that they would discover the secret. If the marshal hadn't found out the clues, he didn't know when he would have been hidden.
Watching Lu Dalin leave angrily, Li Qing paced around the hall, why, why did Bayar do this? It's easy to understand the strength of using yourself to consume part of the blue and red, but that's all?
His fingers pressed on the map, moving inch by inch on the border line, suddenly, his fingers stopped, and where his fingertips pressed, a place name appeared in his eyes, "Dingyuan Fort!" Li Qing shouted.
Hu He, Hu He's wolf army, if the wolf army of Huhe returned from outside the Green Ridge Pass, the way back to the Bai royal court was only hundreds of miles away from Dingyuan, if the wolf army did not turn back to the royal court at all, but directly attacked Dingyuan? Li Qing's body was shocked, no wonder Qingfeng's Investigation Division had never seen the appearance of the Wolf Ben Army in the Bai Clan's royal court! I guess they should have returned at this time.
"Yang Yidao!" He shouted.
"Dashuai, what's the matter?"
"Eight hundred miles to expeditious, quickly return to Dingzhou, and order Wang Qinian's Tianlei Battalion and Jiang Kui's Whirlwind Battalion to rush to the aid of Dingyuan Fort."
"Ahh Yang Yidao was taken aback, something happened to Dingyuan Fort?
"Go!" Li Qing said loudly.
"Is General Lu gone?" Li Qing went out of the hall and recruited a personal guard. The guards pointed to a few fire dragons outside the city and said, "Marshal, Vice General Lu has set off, and General Lu will stay in the forest." ”
"Call Lu Dabing here!"
Li Qing was upset, Huhe's wolf army would definitely attack Dingyuan Fort, Bayar really didn't make a move, as soon as he made a move, he was very powerful, he never thought that he would ignore Huhe's wolf army for a long journey, and directly let them attack Dingyuan, but the problem is that he has very few garrisons in Dingyuan Fort, and it is impossible to stop the wolf army, even if the other party is also sleepy.
I miscalculated, I still underestimated Bayar!
