Chapter 208: The Outsider's Game
Yelu Ruan looked at the prostrate Baye outside the tent, and Yelu An next to him rubbed it aside, and whispered the origin of Baye to Yelu Ruan. (The text is first published in the reading room biquge.info) book mΓ group 4β΄ (8) 065
After Baye resigned from the Tang Army, he fled all the way east, facing the Khitan army, claiming that he had confidential matters to report, and the Khitan striker handed him up layer by layer, and came to the layer of Yelu'an's sword, Yelu'an's wits were quick and deep, and this way he kept all the departments along the Mobei in mind, and the double-toothed knife wolf department was not very big in Mobei, but it was not very small, and it was not an ordinary tribe, so Yelu'an was quite careful, and he immediately remembered the origin of the field, and called the people of the original double-toothed knife wolf department to secretly recognize Baye.
Yelu Anjun immediately interrogated Baye, Baye half-pushed and half-pushed, little by little spit out the coming of the Tang army in the west, Yelu Anjun knew that an army was coming from the west, but he had not yet understood the truth and reality, and some of the news brought by Baye was indeed what Yelu Ruan needed.
"Double-toothed knife wolf?" Yelu Ruan said coldly: "Why didn't you return before?" β
Yelu Anjun also sneered: "Before, the people of the Double-toothed Sword Wolf Department said that the patriarch of his clan was still with three hundred jΔ«ng Rui, but now he came to vote alone. He claimed to have met the Tang army in the west, which may not have been the case in my opinion. He was mostly unwilling to be conscripted before, so he fled westward, but he didn't expect to meet the Tiance Tang Army, but was recruited by the Tiance Tang Army, although he refused to admit this, I also guessed it. He was desperate, so he turned to join our army. β
Yelu Ruan didn't take a little person like Baye to heart, and didn't say anything to deal with it, but said: "In this case, how credible do you think the news he brought?" β
Yelu'an said: "The news brought by this kid is very mixed, but there are two that I think are quite credible. The first is the number of the troops of the Don Army, and the second is the age of the troops of the Don Army. He said that the Tang army numbered nearly 10,000, but most of them were young and vigorous, which is quite credible. β
"Oh?"
Yelu'an said: "If today Ce and my Khitan are engaged in a battle of the country, I estimate that Tiance is on the side of Beiting, and it is impossible for the main force to come, even if there are jΔ«ng sharp men and horses, it will also play a role in disturbing the country, which is similar to the strategy of our army." The real jΔ«ng sharp veteran strong general, it is necessary to use it on the main battlefield, and it is enough to use new soldiers. Moreover, with new recruits to disturb the side, first, there is no need to use the original jΔ«ng Rui Su generals and old male soldiers on the battlefield, second, it can also be used for training, and third, new recruits dare to fight, maybe they can also establish miraculous achievements. β
Yelu Ruan said: "You mean, this army is not strong? β
"I can't see if it's strong." Yelu'an said: "But most of them are not very experienced, so the march is not very rigorous, otherwise it would not be so quick to leak the secret." It's just that judging from the situation of JiΔo Feng, the equipment of this army is not bad. β
Yelu Ruan said: "If this is the case, how do you think we should deal with it?" β
Yelu'an said: "If the enemy is strong, he will avoid, if he is weak, he will encircle and annihilate, this is the trick of war that I have tried and tested in the Khitan for a hundred years." If the other party is a veteran and veteran, we may have to temporarily avoid its edge, if it is really young and vigorous, an ambush can trap them all. But the news brought by the leader of this two-toothed sword wolf, we still have to consider it. We have to send more people to find out the news. β
Yelu Ruan laughed, and after two days, sure enough, someone fled from the west again, but this time it was several merchants who fled, one of whom was sent by Zhenzhou to make a fine work among the merchants, intending to cross Xiaojin Mountain to inquire about the news of Beiting, but he met here. After he got out of trouble, he went east to the Khitan, and after encountering the army, he quickly identified himself and met Yelu An.
The news that Yelu An got from them was only a few discrepancies with Baye, and there was basically no big mistake, and he heard that the leader of the Tang Army this time was surnamed An, called An Shouzhi.
Yelu Ruan said: "An Shouzhi? Haven't heard of it. β
Yelu An said: "An is the big surname in the Tiance Tang Army, second only to Guo Yang. There are many generals in the army, but they are not as famous as the Guo family and the Yang family. This An Shouzhi is most likely the brother of An Shoujing. β
Yelu Ruan said: "It seems that it is really just a partial division. If you can annihilate this group of people and horses in one fell swoop, or chase the north after death, or take advantage of the victory to force the west, you can rely on this victory to overwhelm Xiaojinshan in one fell swoop! β
Yelu'an said: "Lord Wang, the news brought by the double-toothed sword wolf department has indeed been verified by the details sent out by our army. But this time, I felt that the news that we had sent out to pretend to be a businessman had come too timely. β
"Oh?"
Yeluan said: "That puller came to cast, and there is already suspicion on his body." followed by a businessman who was originally detained by the other party to vote, but it brought more news. Under the verification of both sides, the news has appeared to be true, but because of this, it makes people feel that this news is strange. When the two armies faced each other, the captured businessmen had little chance of escaping from the opposite side. Even if there was such an opportunity, the timing of their escape and the news they brought were some coincidences. β
Yelu Ruan said: "Then you mean that this is the news that Tang Jun deliberately released?" β
"That's the possibility!" Yelu'an said, "Even if the Tang army doesn't know that there are our fine works among the merchants, it is possible that they are just trying to spread the news that they want us to know. β
"Then what are they releasing such news for?"
Yeluan pondered and said, "The other party is showing weakness, in order to lead our army into battle." If you want to lead our army into battle, the Tang army may not want to fight here. β
"Since you have such doubts," said Yelu Ruan, "then what do you think should be done?" β
Yeluan pondered for a long time and said, "Since the other party has the intention to lead me to fight, then we should not fall into the trap of the other party. Let's be cautious. β
Yelu Ruan said, "My thoughts are different from yours. β
"The prince's idea is ......"
"Fight!" Yelu Ruan said categorically: "The other party has 10,000 horsemen, if it is a real force like the Eagle Yang Army, do you think they will hesitate like this and make such a decision?" β
"No, it won't." Jeredian said.
"Of course not!" Yelu Ruan said coldly: "If I have ten thousand people in the leather room, I can already dominate the world, why should I be so afraid? Now their appearance, if it is really a game, it is only a leak of the other party's lack of confidence, and the lack of confidence stems from the fact that there is no absolute advantage in combat power. Since the other party has set up a game, it has made you see the flaws, which shows that even if the other party's wisdom is some, it is not too much - since Wu Yong lacks self-confidence, and our resourcefulness is seen by us to be flawed, why should we be afraid of him in this battle! Against! β
Yelu Anyan asked how to deal with the wilderness, and Yelu Ruan said: "I heard that this man is brave and good at fighting, and everyone who travels this part of the road is afraid of him. And detain him, if the news he sells is true, he will have a reward when he returns, and even allow him to return to his headquarters. If the news he sells is false, I will naturally have a way to deal with him. β
ββββββββββββββ
After receiving some information from the Tang army of Tiance, the Khitan marched much faster and continued to the west.
The Tang Army's forward captains were very happy to see the Khitan entering the central plan, and the two sides seemed to have a tacit understanding, getting closer and closer to each other. Near a place called the Handala River Valley by the locals, there are mountain peaks and gravel fields all around, but the Handala River flows down from the northwest and rushes out of a river valley, at this time the deepest part of the river reaches the horse's knee, although the valley is surrounded by mountain peaks, but the terrain is more complicated, there are seven or eight gaps around the river valley, it is a raw place. Yelu Nguyen ordered a large army to be stationed here, to draw water from the river, and to graze the sheep.
At the same time, eighty miles away, the vanguard of the two sides had already engaged in a contact battle. In this round of contact battles, the Khitan really found that the Tang soldiers were almost all young. But these Tang soldiers are well-equipped and have sufficient horsepower, and it is difficult for the strong people in Mobei to gain the upper hand in the fight. Gradually, the Tang army advanced to the southwest of the Handala Valley.
Yeluan said, "So far, the news has not been wrong. β
Yelu Ruan said: "If the news is correct, this river valley is the defeated place of this Tang army!" β
Yelu'an said: "What if it is just a trick set up by the Tang Army so far. β
Yelu Ruan sneered: "Then, this is the burial place of Tang Jun!" β
ββββββ
A hundred miles away, Shi Ba and An Shouzhi listened to the return of the army, An Shouzhi was very keen, he had been in the Kanyu camp, and he had the terrain in this area in mind, although Shi Ba was the commander, but so far the command of the entire army was carried out by An Shouzhi.
An Shouzhi was quite excited to see the Khitan step by step into the trap he had arranged.
He has always spent a lot of time in the rear, although he has assisted a lot in various battles, and he has also studied the battles of various battles in the past very thoroughly, and this is the first time that he has really commanded a battle outside as a division of the First Army, so it is inevitable that he will be excited.
When he heard that the Khitan had entered the Handala River Valley, he issued an order to invite troops from the first and second provinces to invite the battle, and then defeated by swindling, leading out the main Khitan force and retreating to the seventh, eighth, and ninth provinces to ambush the place.
At the same time, the third, fourth, fifth, and sixth four prefectures were ambushed outside the Handala River valley, and when the latter three prefectures lit wolf smoke, they broke through the mountain peak into the river valley, burned the enemy's grain and grass, and cut off the enemy's back road.
This is an An Shouzhi calculated and calculated, and Jun felt that there were no flaws, but Shi Ba did not have the impulse to be happy when he heard the war, and listened to the Khitan walk into the Handala River Valley, and suddenly said: "The Khitan people may have seen through our plan." β
An Shouzhi was stunned and said, "See through our plan? Then they still dare to come? β
"I don't know why." Shi Ba said: "But I feel that since Ba Ye went, they have been walking step by step, as if they are all cooperating with us on the march. β
An Shouzhi said: "Maybe it's because the other party has fallen into our trap. β
"It can be explained this way, it's just too smooth." Shi Ba is a fierce general, but he is not known for his wisdom, he calculates and lays out in advance, which is not what he is good at, but he doesn't know how many battles he has fought, those two small nostrils, like a wolf can smell blood on the battlefield, and has the ability to predict danger.
He said to An Shouzhi: "Some small tribes in Mobei who are brave and unscrupulous may be so easy to fall into the trap. But there are generals in the leather room army, and it is not like this style of using troops. β
On the map, he tapped on the valley of the Handala River: "This place is probably the place of the decisive battle." β
An Shouzhi asked, "Why?" β
Shi Ba couldn't say it, but said, "It should be like this." β
An Shouzhi saw that Shi Ba's judgment came for no reason, and he was not convinced, but he still said: "The governor is the boss, if the governor has doubts, then this operation will be suspended." β
Shi Ba said: "The sons and daughters are young and fast, they should use their strength, now they are all excited, if they revoke the original action resolution before they see the crisis, I am afraid that their morale will be hit, and their momentum will be reduced, if that Yelu Ruan also has a little ability, then we have to form a tug-of-war with him here?" β
In fact, there was still a sentence that Shi Ba hadn't said - or rather, Shi Ba didn't know how to express it.
An Shouzhi didn't understand that Shi Ba was more inclined to lead a large army and kill directly on the battlefield, in this case, not only Shi Ba himself could exert his strongest combat power, but even the soldiers under his command could become stronger.
But if it is the kind of complex formation that is rigorous and the distribution of troops is arranged according to the right time, place and people, Shi Ba feels very reluctant to command. In the past, An Shouzhi was the real commander of this army, and he also felt that it was difficult for Shi Ba to modify this arrangement.
"So......" Ahn Shouzhi looked like he was ready to compromise.
"Let's go!" Shi Ba said that he decided not to fight Lu Γ n An Shouzhi's pace, but to make the original An Shouzhi's slightly complicated arrangement simpler, after all, simplicity is Shi Ba's style: "This group of teenagers is not used to too complicated battles, so they give up the original strategy of attacking in multiple directions, let them be in one place, advance and retreat together." We can only hope that they will go all the way forward and create a miracle. β
An Shouzhi said: "If this is the case, if the Khitan does not see through our plan, then in the battle of the Handala River Valley, even if we can win, we will not be able to annihilate the enemy." β
Shi Ba said: "This battle, let's win first." β
If it was another wise general, seeing that the main general suddenly changed his formation before the war without presenting any favorable evidence, he would definitely protest, but An Shouzhi was used to doing logistics, and the person who did logistics regarded coordination as his duty, so although he did not believe in Shi Ba's judgment, he still accepted it.
At present, the Tang army is still invited to fight by the first and second prefectures, the third and fourth prefectures are one place, and the fifth and sixth prefectures are combined to make one place, ambushed in two places, preparing to break into the river valley from the two places and outflank the Khitan rear.
It was quite strange that Chai Rong received an order to abandon his original offensive route and attack with the Fourth Mansion.
ββββββββ
Outside the valley of the Handala River, 2,000 cavalry from the first and second provinces launched a provocative attack on the Khitan.
When Yelu Ruan heard that the Tang army had sent about 2,000 cavalry to provoke him, he called for a wild and asked Yelu An, "How many of his two-toothed swords and wolves are there in our army?" β
Yelu'an said: "At the beginning, there were about 2,000 people attached, and about 1,500 people enlisted in the army. β
Yelu Ruan said, "Give him all 1,500 men." He said to Ba Ye: "Don't you hate Tang Jun for swallowing your three hundred jΔ«ng rui?" I'll give you soldiers and horses to take revenge. Do you dare to go? β
Bayo's heart was beating hard, and Yelu Ruan put him under house arrest all the way, and he never expected that Yelu Ruan would give him military power when he was in battle! It's just that it's not a good thing to suddenly give the right to the army nowβit must be a pawn yourself. But at this moment, he knew that if he hesitated, he would soon be in trouble! Without blinking his eyelids, he knelt down and said: "If the prince can fulfill the villain, the villain will not hesitate to go to the soup!" β
Yelu Ruan said: "Now that the Tang people have 2,000 people outside the river valley to invite battle, if you dare to fight, I will treat you as a vanguard." Xu you lead the old department, open the double-toothed sword wolf banner, and go to kill the Tang army. β
Baye's face was full of joy and worry, and said: "The prince is good, the villain can follow the prince, and he is naturally willing to die, but the Tang army is quite strong, if it is 1,000 and 5 enemies and 2,000, the villain is afraid that he will not be defeated." β
Yelu Ruan said: "Just make you the vanguard, where do you really want to fight alone, I will send another enemy Lie Gu Hu Department and Wugu Antler Department, a total of 3,000 men and horses, for you on the left and right wings." 4,500 people to fight 2,000 people, if this is all afraid, can the Mobei boy still compete with the Central Plains! β
Baye was overjoyed and said: "If this is the case, the villain must fight bravely and fight for the first credit!" β
Yelu Ruan laughed and said, "If you win the first prize, your glory and wealth will be indispensable when you turn back." β
Immediately ordered: "Go to battle!" β
After Baye went out, Yelu'an smiled and said, "The prince is a good plan!" Now you can test the authenticity of this kid. It's just that if he really pretends to surrender and defects on the verge of battle, it will also be troublesome. β
Yelu Ruan laughed and said, "Defection? If he had brought those fifteen hundred people to vote, I would have been a little worried that he would defect, but although those more than 1,000 people were his old subordinates, after our hΓΊn arrangement, they had already separated themselves from him, and he was suddenly ordered to fight, and once he temporarily defected, his subordinates would definitely produce hΓΊnluΓ n. At that time, a hundred skins were enough to break into LuΓ n's army and take his head. β
Yelu'an said: "Then, wait for your subordinates to arrange a hundred horsemen to supervise the battle." β
ββββββββ
After Baye came out of the tent, it was also the first two big, Yelu Ruan's own soldiers took him to the military camp where his old department was located to give orders, and the second master of the two-toothed knife wolf camp saw that Baye had arrived, and he was full of joy. The second master had the heart to ask where the other three hundred horsemen went, but it was difficult to speak in front of everyone.
After Yelu Ruan's personal soldiers passed down the order, Baye did not dare to slack off, so he had to lead the troops out of the valley, and the enemy Lie Lonely Crane Department and the Hinder Antler Department followed behind the left rear and right rear, just like the two teeth of the pliers, clamping the double-toothed knife wolf battalion without retreating, not to mention that the double-toothed knife wolf battalion was followed by the leather room military supervision team! Even if he wanted to explain something at this time, he didn't have the time to say it in front of more than a thousand people, not even to explain it to a few henchmen. Therefore, it was not only the Pi Mu Supervisor Team and the Mobei Second Division that restrained Baye, but even the 1,500 people behind him unknowingly became Yelu Ruan's tools for controlling Baye.
At this point, Baye couldn't help but secretly complain, these years he can crisscross the two areas between Tiance and Khitan, and naturally has extraordinary ability, but people born in the wild road, once they meet the regular army of real power, they will be tied to do things, not resourceful, but unreachable, although Yelu Ruan has not completely seen through his mind, but suddenly pushed him into a dilemma.
At this time, Ba Ye was very entangled in his heart, thinking: "If I fight bravely, it will be a self-isolation from the Tiance Tang Army before the battle, and the three hundred brothers in the Tang Army will not be spared." But if I don't fight, I don't have to wait for anything else, and the Overseers will rush over and kill me. If the 1,500 brothers around me could be of the same mind as me, then I still have room to operate, but now the brothers still don't understand my mind. If I were to defect, how many of the more than 1,000 people on the battlefield would be able to understand me? A few people such as the second master may be able to react quickly, but others are bound to hΓΊnluΓ n. And the layout of the Tang Army has not yet worked, and if I defect now, I will not be able to make any contributions. Without credit, I would not be able to speak in front of the iron beast Shiba, and he may not be able to tolerate me much! β
In a short distance, Ba Ye turned his mind several times, turned around, and felt that he was ready to fly at this moment and had to be sent!
Soon after leaving the river valley, I saw the cavalry of the two provinces of the Tiance Tang Army approaching, and the second leader here
Ba Zhi said: "The young captains of the Tiance Army actually look down on me, and now that the two formations are facing each other, they may not be merciful when they meet me." If it's 'in the form of shΓ¬', they will probably kill me!" I gambled my life for the sake of a promise that I hadn't yet put my heart into it? If you say that you are pretending to fight, you are not acting on the battlefield, but you are desperate, if Tang Qi on the other side is really fighting, then I will die here first with a soft hand. β
He pondered repeatedly in his heart, seeing that the war was unavoidable, and was ruthless: "That's it!" The xΓ¬ng life of the three hundred brothers, just give it to Chai Rong! I fight only for myself! Let's take care of the present, tomorrow's things will be talked about tomorrow! β
After the Khitan and Tang armies found each other, they reorganized the horses a little, and they were about to fight, and the Khitan Governor team had ordered the second master to play the banner of the double-toothed sword wolf department. The lieutenants of the ten prefectures all knew about the wilderness, and the lieutenant of the first prefecture suddenly discovered the double-toothed sword wolf camp, and glanced at the lieutenant of the second prefecture, and said, "Look! The Governor of the Second Prefecture was also quite surprised, and said to the Governor of the First Prefecture: "How this person appeared here, I don't know if there will be variables later." β
The First Governor said: "Let's deal with it immediately, in short, don't forget our orders." β
The second governor said: "He still has three hundred brothers with us, can he dare to betray us?" We're here to cheat this time, but if he turns against him and the situation is in our favor, should we win first? β
The first lieutenant thought for a while and said, "It's okay to win a small victory, but I'm afraid that the big layout will be missed." β
Originally, the lieutenants of the two prefectures were ordered to lead the enemy into the encirclement this time, and if it was a strong force from the opposite side, they would not be so entangled, just because it was a spy sent out by the Tang army, Baye, who suddenly appeared in front of the battle, and the lieutenants of the two prefectures hesitated. This also violates the weakness of the orphan army, if they are thrown into a specific battlefield, led by a fierce general, with a youthful spirit, their burst of combat effectiveness may be able to chase the dragon and the eagle army, but when encountering a complex battlefield, the shortcomings of lack of experience and unpleasant judgment will be fully revealed.
The two sides stopped for a moment, followed by the horn blowing, and pulled out their ambitions: "BΔ« here, only forward!" He drew his sword and shouted, "Rush! Fifteen hundred riders entered the acceleration state, and the next two followed suit.
The lieutenants of the two prefectures of the Tang Army also ordered to fight!
The lieutenants of the two prefectures shouted in unison: "Datang! The cavalry of the two provinces responded: "Mighty! β
The lieutenants of the two prefectures shouted in unison again: "Datang! The cavalry of the two provinces responded again: "Invincible!" β
The invincible word fell, and the two thousand cavalry also let their horses gallop!
The Khitan army had 4,500 people, more than twice the number of the Tang army, but the equipment of the Tang army was far superior to the three parts of the two-toothed sword wolf, the enemy martyr lonely bird, and the obstruction antlers, so the momentum of the Tang army was not slightly inferior.
The two sides rushed to each other, Baye took the lead, and rushed towards the second captain, the generals of the orphan army were all teenagers, all of them were known for their martial bravery, and other armies may have the main generals sitting in the rear, but the whole army of the orphan army was a team and must rush to the front of a team! The lieutenant must rush to the front of the first battalion! The Captain must be at the forefront of the First House!
The second lieutenant of the second prefecture saw Baye rushing towards him, and said in his heart: "He is rushing to the front, rushing towards me, does he have to have something to say to me?" "Secretly left strength in his hand, and also rushed towards Baye.
Seeing that the second lieutenant was staring at him, Ba Ye said in his heart: "Since you are in battle, there is no father and son, kill it!" "One gritted his teeth, and his eyes were red!
The two horses were wrong, and the second lieutenant of the second prefecture greeted the sword and Ma Weile, and was about to ask questions, but he felt that the blade was sharp, and he was shocked: "This guy has betrayed!" β
In the flash of blood, he was stabbed in the shoulder, but the second lieutenant was red in the neck! The second governor never expected that the first knife would be so ruthless!
In the midst of hundreds of people's amazement, Captain Tang Qidu had already fallen off his horse. Ba Ye was stunned, but he didn't expect this first gong to come so lightly, but the old people behind him were inspired by his sudden victory, and rushed into the Tang cavalry formation like crazy.
The young soldiers of the second province saw that the main general fell off the horse, and their morale was greatly hit, and the young men had a lot of hatred to avenge the captain, and the previous cavalry formation was luΓ n, and the formation was slightly seen, fortunately, there was a deputy lieutenant who was old enough to turn the tide and quickly take over the position of the captain, and the first government hurried to help, and the situation was stable.
But behind the enemy's Lie and Obstruction Divisions, the Tang Army has fallen into an obvious disadvantage!
The deputy lieutenant of the first prefecture reminded: "Captain, you can't win this battle, take advantage of the situation and retreat!" β
The first governor roared angrily: "Although it is the original arrangement, but ......" He was still thinking about revenge, but the deputy governor was a veteran general in his forties, and shouted: "The overall situation is important!" β
Only then did the Governor of the First Mansion reluctantly shout: "The Second Mansion retreats!" After our army is broken! β
There were hundreds of teenagers in the second mansion over there shouting at the same time: "Don't retreat, don't retreat!" We want to avenge the captain! β
The Governor of the First Mansion shouted again: "The Second Mansion listens to the order and retreats!" The first house, after the break! β
The deputy lieutenant of the second province also issued a strict order, and the cavalry of the second province fought and retreated, and the Tang cavalry was more luΓ n, surrounded by the enemy's fierce and lonely birds, and the antlers of the obstruction were surrounded at the same time, and the cavalry of the first province resisted bloodily, covering the reorganization of the ranks of the second province.
In the distance, Yeluan saw that the two cavalry who commanded the ambush followed and killed, but smiled at Yeluruan: "This Baye is also ruthless and can be cultivated." β
Yelu Ruan laughed and said: "He has this head in front of the formation as a guarantee, and he can be appointed in the future." β
Six or seven thousand Khitan cavalry drove the defeated Tang cavalry of the two provinces, and fought to the southwest.
ββββββ
Chai Rong lay in ambush between the mountains, just waiting for the wolf smoke behind him.
These young officers of the Orphan Army have a special position in the Tiance Tang Army. Zhang Mai is consciously cultivating one of them as a successor, and some new methods have been used in education and training, hoping that these teenagers will be able to give birth to outstanding generals who are in charge of their own affairs within a few years, so as to dispel the twilight that some old troops are faintly presenting.
Although so, after all, a juvenile family is a juvenile family, and force can be innate, martial arts can be trained, and tactics can be educated, but the pre-battle reaction is not to accumulate actual combat experience, and as for strategic vision, it requires not only experience, but also talent.
Chai Rong is one of the few young generals among the young officers who can think with a strategic vision, and he also has a natural intuition, he is one of the promoters of the layout of this battle, but as the situation evolves, he gradually feels that the development of things seems to be more and more distant from his own deduction.
"What went wrong?"
The stone octopus interrupted Chai Rong's thoughts: "Taniguchi has started fighting!" β
Rong nodded.
Shi Octopus said: "Captain, the Fourth Mansion has begun to be prepared, and we will also order it to be prepared." β
This time, Chai Rong was originally arranged to outflank the back road of the Khitan, but later Shi Ba made adjustments, merging the third and fourth provinces, canceling the previous outflanking route of Chai Rong, and the location of Chai Rong's first army became the follow-up of the fourth government. It was also this adjustment that made Chai Rong, who had always been comfortable, feel uneasy for the first time.
Chai Rong said: "Don't be in such a hurry. Our people are stronger than the Khitan. The combat power of the first and second provinces is the crown of the provinces, and it is not easy for them to defeat in the midst of thousands of troops, even if they want to be defeated, there must be a process, most of them are to win a game first, pretend to fight exhausted, and then retreat, so as to attract the Khitan army. β
The ambushed troops entered the silence again, and the soldiers of the Third Mansion had undergone the strict training of the ambush, and they were still calm at this time, but the three hundred jΔ«ng rui of the two-toothed knife wolf department over there were a little restless, Chai Rong sensed it and walked over to appease him, and the three masters said with some worry: "I don't know how the big boss is now." β
Chai Rong said: "Don't worry, Baye is alert, even if there is any change, he can take care of himself." He also saw that the fluctuation of the atmosphere of the three hundred jΔ«ng rui was not entirely due to Baye, but also because the double-toothed sword wolf battalion had no name and justification in the Tang army, and the departure of Baye, who was the closest relationship with Chai Rong, made them feel that their position in the Tang army was even more embarrassing.
After thinking about this, Chai Rong said again: "You can fight with me with peace of mind, if you are not there, I am your boss." Many of you have been with me in the juvenile prison camp, so am I still being mean to my old brothers? β
The third master waited for this to laugh and said, "Of course, with Boss Chai, what are you worried about!" β
Chai Rong counted the time, and felt that it should be time for the first and second mansions to fail, and immediately ordered to be prepared, and the order was passed down, Geng Xin had already pointed to the southwest and said: "Wolf smoke, wolf smoke!" β
The Fourth Mansion was very excited to see the wolf smoke, and the lieutenant immediately ordered the troops to march.
Chai Rong exclaimed: "It's so fast!" Something's wrong! β
A middle-aged man walked over, it was the deputy lieutenant of the third mansion - the nine prefectures of the orphan army all have two deputy lieutenants, nine lieutenants are teenagers, and there are nine young deputy lieutenants, but at the same time, there are nine deputy lieutenants who have been in the battle formation for a long time, and then the deputy lieutenant came over and asked, "Captain, what's wrong?" β
Chai Rong said: "This wolf smoke is coming too fast, and I am afraid that there will be some changes in the rear!" β
The deputy lieutenant said, "What should I do then?" Is it possible to cancel the entry into the valley? β
At this time, news came from Chen Fengxiao in front: "The Fourth Mansion has started to act!" β
Chai Rong's mind turned nine times, and his right fist hit his left palm, and said, "Prepare to enter the valley!" β
Geng Xin said: "But didn't Du Wei just say that he was afraid that there would be some changes in the rear?" β
Chai Rong said: "Although this is the case, we can't let the Fourth Mansion become a lonely army. Isn't this the reason why the Governor of Shi Du asked us to join the two governments all the way? Besides, even if there is any change in the rear, I believe that Shi Dudu will definitely be able to reverse the disadvantage! Iron beast stone pulling, isn't it worth everyone's belief? β
Several of the junior lieutenants shouted at the same time: "Of course! Under the whole world, who can stop Shi Dudu's fangs! β
Chai Rong waved his hand and said, "Let's go, let's go!" β

The soldiers of the four prefectures divided into two ways and entered the valley of the Handala River, and at this moment the Su zhì of the orphan army appeared, and they crossed the gravel gap with great speed and rushed into the valley with lightning speed.
The horses' hooves trampled on the cool river, and the fifth and sixth mansions went downstream, and the third and fourth mansions went upstream, and only after entering the river valley did they suddenly make a noise and rush into the Khitan camp.
The Khitan soldiers were horrified, and it was too late to defend the camp, and the Handala River Valley was low-lying and there was no danger to defend, and the Khitan did not arrange a strong camp defense, so the four provinces were sandwiched, and the Khitan camp in the Handala River Valley was broken.

Zhenzhou.
Northwest Envoy Mansion.
Here, it is where the Khitan Dragon Court in Mobei is located. There is no real economic center in Mobei, even the political center can also be mobile. The location of the Khitan Northwest Envoy is the core of Mobei - at least the core of the Khitan in Mobei.
Zhenzhou is not a particularly prosperous city, not even a city, in the Central Plains, here is only a town at most, in terms of scale, I am afraid that it is not as good as broken leaves, there are earthen walls to enclose the surroundings, but there are not too many facilities in the city, even the northwest to recruit the envoy's mansion, it is not a real mansion, but just a joint account of several large tents.
And at this moment, when a group of people approached Zhenzhou, Xiao Han, the uncle of the country who ruled Mobei on behalf of the Khitan, actually went out of the city to greet him in person, and also saluted the comers.
But the man on the horse looked at Xiao Han coldly, like a noble prisoner looking at a lowly jailer.
"Deputy Marshal, it's been hard all the way." Xiao Han, the envoy of the Northwest Recruitment, was Yelu Deguang's brother-in-law, and the immediate nobleman turned out to be Yelu Deguang's younger brother, Yelu Lihu.
In the future, Xiao Han and Yelu Lihu are also relatives, but in the emperor's family, their relationship is more sinister than that of strangers, because Yelu Lihu is a person who is qualified to win the Khitan throne, and Xiao Han is a supporter of Yelu Deguang. This time, Yelu Lihu was defeated, and Yelu Deguang took the opportunity to demote him to Zhenzhou, ostensibly to let him come here to experience as the person in charge of the Khitan Shangjing Road, but in fact, it was like exile, and Yelu Lihu was relegated far to the north of the desert, and JiΔo was taken care of by Xiao Han.
Despite this, Yelu Lihu still only sneered at Xiao Han, did not say a word, and whipped into the city.
Looking at the back of this domineering figure, Xiao Han also sneered in his heart.
But soon, he received a war report from the southwest.
"Yelu Ruan, have you met the Tang Army?"
Yelu Ruan, the son of Jerube, is himself a threat second only to Jerehu - if it were Jerube himself, it would be even more of a threat than Jerehu.
Yelu Lihu relied on the support of the earth queen Shu Luping, and so far has not been able to shake the support of Yelu Deguang, and Yelu Bei lost the country and ran away, Shu Luping hates him, but he is still regarded as a big trouble by Yelu Deguang. After all, it was a human emperor who could be on a par with the Heavenly Emperor Abaoji and the Earth Empress Shu Luping!
"It's not worry-free!" Xiao Han said in his heart, but judging from the current form, he should not be out of control.
ββββββββββββββ
However, Xiao Han would make such a judgment because he only saw the tip of the iceberg of the entire battle situation.
Shi Ba, who still hides his identity, is just a layer of bubble in the entire strategic layout of the Tang Army, and Chai Rong, who is active in the vicinity of the Handala River Valley, is just a layer of floating light on the entire strategic bubble of the Tang Army!
In a hastily placed camp in a place far away and nowhere, Yang Yi coughed, after the Battle of Beiting, although one of his illnesses was carefully taken care of by Zhang Mai and suppressed, his body was weak from then on.
At this time, in a remote river valley, there were no careful people to take care of them, and all of them were just the generals who accompanied the armyβall of them were rude men who could best endure the harsh environment.
"The Grand Duke!" Ding Hanshan said: "Why don't we rest here for two days?" β
Yang Yi stared at him, Ding Hanshan didn't dare to mention this matter again, and the general Yingyang stayed until his face turned red and retreated slightly, before he said, "How far is it from Zhenzhou?" β
Ding Hanshan took out a map, compared it, and calculated the marching time, and after returning, Yang Yi asked again: "The living Buddha's current car should pass Xiaojin Mountain, right?" β
Ding Hanshan said: "Count the days, if there are no accidents, you should go to the vicinity of Xiaojin Mountain." β
Yang Yi said: "I hope that the southern line is a qiΔ shun lΓ¬, at least not out of the luΓ n son." β
Ding Hanshan next to him said: "Actually, winning with a sword and horse is the right way, why does the marshal have to arrange that living Buddha, if the compassionate Buddhism can really resolve the enmity between Hu and Han, then Mobei will not hΓΊnluΓ n for thousands of years......"
"Shut up!" Yang Yi coughed a few times before shouting again: "The marshal is eloquent, how can you question his ideas!" β
Ding Hanshan hurriedly stopped.
Yang Yi said again: "Your eyes, what you can see is only in front of you, my eyes may be able to see for decades, but the marshal can see for a hundred years and thousands of years!" The marshal's thoughts are not something you can understand! β
Ding Hanshan hurriedly paused and said, "Even so, but the Grand Duke, this journey is too hard, originally, you don't need to go this way yourself." Even we are walking extremely uncomfortable, and most of you are ...... your body."
"When I don't come to such a big battle, who is the right person to come?" Yang Yidao: "I only hope that I can survive until the desert sweeps, and then I will die without regrets!" β
