It was the first day of the new year, there were no stars and no moon in the sky, and the deep night could not see the five fingers, and at the second watch, Yang Yi took a thousand men and horses to Kunlun Pass by night.

The fortifications of the Vietnamese army were built on the mountain, and the mountain was not a vertical cliff, and it was possible to touch it under the cover of night.

A thousand men and horses died down, forbidden to talk, only the sound of rustling footsteps came out in the dark, Yang Yi sent hundreds of scouts to explore the way in front, this black light is blind, don't steal chickens and don't eat rice.

Bao Yi seemed to have been choked by someone, and said in an almost inaudible voice: "My lord, you can wait at the bottom of the mountain for a while, and this little dish will be served by your subordinates!" ”

Yang Yi knew that he was worried about his safety. In fact, if it is not necessary, Yang Yi also understands that it is better for him not to charge into battle in person, first, he can give his subordinates more opportunities to display their talents, and secondly, as the commander of the three armies, once there is a mistake, the three armies will collapse.

Yang Yi replied softly: "Okay, you will be responsible for this time, I will honestly hide under the mountain and wait for good news." ”

Bao Yi didn't expect Yang Yi to be so easy to talk this time, his heart suddenly put down, and the two of them had just chatted a few words, when a scout suddenly rushed back in front of him, panting and reporting to Yang Yi: "My lord, hurry up...... There are hairy monkeys in front, they probably want to steal our battalion, there are many small ones, and they have killed their scouts, but they have made a little noise, and the hairy monkeys are now hesitant and are sending people from the new to investigate. ”

Yang Yi immediately reprimanded: "Less nonsense, how far is the other party from here?" ”

"Back to Dashuai, it's probably only two miles."

"Bao Yi, tell the brothers to prepare for battle, speed up the pace to catch up, and prepare torches at the same time, in case the other party retreats, let's immediately light torches to chase."

The soldiers in the back passed one by one, and the team began to trot, and the noise was inevitably louder, but they could not care about this, and ran out of the field, and a scout in front came to report that the enemy had found that the situation was wrong, and was retreating.

"Raise the fire!"

Yang Yi ordered loudly, and in an instant, a piece of torches was lit, illuminating the mountains as bright as day, and then a thousand men and horses spread their feet and chased wildly.

The Vietnamese army dispatched 2,000 men and horses this time, and Li Tong, the deputy general who led the team, was also clever, and as soon as he felt that the situation was different, he immediately retreated. At first, they were willing to raise fire, but when they found that the fire was approaching behind them, they couldn't expose their targets, so they also raised fire to light the way in order to speed up the retreat.

As soon as the fire in front was lit, Yang Yi and they were happy in the back, because they found that the distance between the two sides was less than a mile, and the road was not wide, and the Vietnamese army was crowded.

"Hurry, hurry! A row of ten people, chasing and shooting, the front row is finished, and the back row is interspersed with the front, hurry! ”

Bao Yi was like a wolf that saw its prey, and began to roar non-stop, the Vietnamese troops in front were huddled together, there was no need to aim at all, and he raised his gun to shoot his mother, how could such a good opportunity not teach him to be anxious?

These thousand flint gunners had been severely trained by Yang Yi, and they immediately lined up in formation when they were ordered.

Bang! Bang! Bang...... Bursts of gunfire suddenly resounded in the night sky, startling the mountain birds to fly in flocks, the Vietnamese army in front began to keep people shot and fell to the ground, and when they were dying, they let out a terrible scream, and in this night they were terrified, and the Vietnamese army was in a big panic, and they all ran for their lives.

Seeing this, after arriving at a place where the terrain was relatively straight and open, Yang Yi immediately ordered a thousand of his men to give up the pursuit, stop and line up in three rows, squatting in the front row, half squatting in the second row, and standing upright in the third row, shooting at the same time, which can not only increase the density of bullets, but also strengthen the shooting accuracy!

The gunshots rang out intensively, and the casualties of the Vietnamese army in front also increased several times, and the rows that ran behind fell in rows, and some of the undead fell to the ground rolling and howling, but who still cared about them, the front only hated that the father and mother had two legs missing, and ran wildly with the strength of breastfeeding.

Yang Yi's goal was achieved, the road was not wide, under the great panic, the two thousand Vietnamese troops were crowded and embraced, and many people were squeezed down by their companions, and before they could get up, countless pairs of legs stepped over, trampling them to death; Some of them were set ablaze by the torches of their companions, and if they stopped to extinguish the fire, they would immediately be pushed down and trampled by those behind them.

Some ferocious Vietnamese soldiers even drew their swords and slashed at their comrades who were in the way, and a puff of blood made more people lose their rationality. As a result, more and more people slashed at their comrades with knives, and the scene became more and more bloody.

Yang Yi wanted this result, and when the Vietnamese army was about to escape from the firing range, he waved his army to continue the chase, and the road was full of Vietnamese corpses, and it was estimated that less than 20% of them were actually shot, and most of them trampled on each other and died.

Yang Yi and the others chased straight to the Kunlun Pass, and at this time the mountain was already brightly lit, and Li Yongtai made the wisest choice: to be prepared.

The Song army shouted and cursed at the foot of the mountain, and the Vietnamese army lay tightly in the trench and did not answer.

Put the gun and ignore it.

Withdraw, farewell.

This battle is a bit inexplicable, both sides are planning to steal the camp, as soon as the Vietnamese army found out that the hiding was leaking, they immediately retreated, and the Song army immediately chased after the other party as soon as they found out of the nest, and as a result, they were all shot indiscriminately, causing a tragic trampling accident of the Vietnamese army...... Li Tong brought 2,000 men and horses, and less than 1,000 returned to Kunlun Pass, and they all lost their armor and were embarrassed. Li Yongtai almost wanted to cut him, but Li Tong felt that the responsibility was not on his own, and retorted eloquently: "If you hadn't strictly ordered the troops to withdraw immediately as soon as their whereabouts were revealed, would we have been defeated so badly?" ”

Before Li Tong led the army to set off, Li Yongtai did give him this order, not so much that it was his order, but that it was Ruan Zhishun's order, because before he came to Kunlun Pass, Ruan Zhishun strictly ordered him not to fight.

He agreed that Li Tong would go to the camp, but he just wanted to test it, who knew that this test of a thousand people would be gone!

Oh my God, how can this be? Li Yongtai wanted to cry without tears.

No matter how provocative the Song army was, he just didn't come out, and at night, there would be fires up and down the mountain to prevent the Song army from touching the mountain at night.

Li Yongtai did to reduce the tortoise, strictly guarded it, Yang Yi really couldn't help him, he would never do anything about the attack, at least not now, it was not time yet.

After the test was fruitless, Yang Yi simply withdrew his troops back to Pennsylvania, which was only half a day's journey anyway.

After receiving his "threat", some of the leaders of the state came to Pennsylvania, and there were still two days before the deadline of the fifth day of the seventh month, and Yang Yi was not in a hurry to meet these leaders.

Soon after he returned to the state office, Liu Zheng asked to see him outside the door, Liu Zheng was the deputy leader of the staff pavilion river group, and like Li Dafeng, he was born in a reckless background, and he had been mixed in the three religions and nine streams. When the staff hall recruits people, it has a great tilt towards this kind of Jianghu people, and recruits a lot.

On this Yang Yi's southern expedition, as the most important foreign intelligence agency, it was naturally impossible not to send people to spy on intelligence and cooperate with the operation. Liu Zheng's appearance is average, and you can't tell what characteristics his appearance has after looking at it for a long time, he is twenty-four years old, but he is the leader of the Annan group that has just been formed.

After Yang Yi asked the guards to guard the door strictly, he asked Liu Zheng, "Is there any progress in the matter?" ”

Liu Zheng clenched his fists and replied in a deep voice: "My lord, these tribes are relatively closed internally, and they are usually more united and xenophobic. Those who have a relatively high status in the clan are quite disdainful of our promises, if the status of the clan is low, I am afraid that it will not be of much effect, and some even want to expose our intentions, and our people must not ......"

Liu Zheng didn't continue, and Yang Yi didn't ask, politics is always dirty, since it is something that can't be put on the table, let it be hazy in gray.

Yang Yi thought for a while and said: "You haven't heard of forcing Liangshan, you've always heard of forcing Liang to be a prostitute, right?" You can't just take advantage of high-ranking officials to bribe, those target people are unwilling to cooperate, you can use other means, to plant blame, threats, inducements, kidnapping and ransom...... Forget it, I don't need to teach you all these tricks, right? In any case, before the end of the war, you must rebel against more than half of the target people, if it is done, I will give you a great credit, if not, you will let the leader of the team let Xian! ”

"Adult, the little one knows how to do it, please rest assured, the subordinates will ensure that the task is completed."

Yang Yi bowed his head slightly, and asked instead, "Dali, Zhenla, and Zhancheng can have news back." ”

"Lord Hui, in terms of time, my envoy should have a result in Dali, but the staff pavilion lacks a foundation in Guangnan, and the speed of transmission is inevitably slow, and now I haven't gotten any news related to Dali, but my subordinates have learned about it from Guangzhou, and now there is a storm on the sea, and the messenger who goes to Zhancheng and Zhenla may be in some trouble."

"Storm?"

"Yes, my lord, the little one has just gotten this news, and it is a matter of the safety of the envoy and the envoy of Zhenla, and the little one doesn't dare to talk nonsense."

It is normal for there to be typhoons in July, which is one of the reasons why Yang Yi did not choose to take the sea route.

Yang Yi's brows slowly wrinkled into one place, the strategy he formulated was to unite the three kingdoms of Dali, Champa and Zhenla to attack Jiaozhi, and now that the typhoon is coming, the envoys of the Great Song Dynasty cannot reach Zhancheng and Zhenla in time, so it is impossible to talk about uniting them to attack Jiaozhi.

Yang Yi's southern expedition this time used less than 40,000 troops, if he can't jointly occupy the city and Zhenla, then this amount of troops will be a bit hanging.

In this era, most people don't notice the relationship between typhoons and rainfall, but Yang Yi doesn't know that every time a typhoon passes, it will definitely bring a lot of rain to the surrounding area.

And the rainy day will definitely have a great impact on the military operation, which is simply terrible for the Song army as the main attacker.

Of course, this influence is mutual, the Song army is not happy, and the Vietnamese army will not be much better!

Is it possible to take advantage of the approaching typhoon to turn the disadvantage into an advantage? Rain, rain, time, place, people...... Yang Yi frowned and pondered, so much so that he forgot about Liu Zheng, and Liu Zheng didn't dare to disturb his contemplation, so he could only wait quietly, and Yang Yi noticed that he was still in the hall.

"You go first, hurry up and get things done! If you have any information, no matter how big or small, remember to report it. ”

"Yes, sir."

After Liu Zheng withdrew, Yang Yi paced in the room again and began to think hard about how to make good use of the typhoon. Since ancient times, whoever can turn a disadvantage into an advantage on the battlefield has won the war...... At this moment, there was another noise outside the yamen, and Yang Yi's thoughts were interrupted, and he couldn't help but be a little annoyed.

After listening carefully, I knew that it was the little lady who "made the land of three mountains and silver, and the jade of the eight caves was the sky" who came to make trouble.

This stinky girl, it's still lawless, this is, I can't bear to clean you up when you look smart?
