————————

Although Chai Rong was only a lieutenant, he barely entered the middle level of the Tang Army, but he had a special position in the Tang Army in Shanbei.

First of all, he himself trained the juvenile prisoner camp, and had miraculous feats in the Battle of Luntai, although the position of the lieutenant was not very high in the Tang army, but his merits and appearance were shining among his peers, and only by virtue of his merits, appearance and age, it was enough for him to enter the field of vision of the top of the Tang Army, and make him the object of key observation and training by the military.

What's more, Chai Rong is still Guo Wei's adopted son. The Battle of Luntai established Guo Wei's prestige among the Tiance Tang Army, and after the victory in Beiting, Guo Wei was promoted to general at the same time as Shi Ba, Murong Chūnhua, and Ma Jirong, becoming the second senior general after Guo Luo and Yang Yi, and was qualified to make the most core strategic decision. Chai Rong, as Guo Wei's adopted son, naturally outperforms others in terms of trust. When he was still training in Beiting, he was already one of the few people who could meet Yang Yi directly.

In this offensive against Mobei, he is also one of the middle-level generals who knows the most secrets.

——————————

Under Chai Rong's arrangement, Baye rode on a fast horse and was escorted by Gengxin to the rear quickly.

In the recent past, the tentacles of the Tang army suddenly stretched to three hundred miles east of Xiaojin Mountain, and Baye found that this tentacle was still extending eastward, all the way to the west. He immediately realized that Chai Rong should be a pathfinder at the forefront.

To the west of Chai Rong and what he called the "Fourth Prefecture", there were three layers of soldiers and horses, each of which had about three prefectures, and this army was a total of nine prefectures. Bano noticed again. The soldiers I saw along the way were all very young, about the same age as myself, and they unconsciously showed a strong momentum in the pervasiveness of jīng.

He didn't know that the strength of these nine prefectures was exactly what the top echelons of the Tang Army called the "orphan army". All of them are orphans who have lost their families in various wars in the past few years, and they are trained at the northern foot of the Tianshan Mountains regardless of whether they are enemies or enemies, and Yang Yi is personally in charge. It is one of the new forces within the Tang Army in recent years.

The armament of this orphan army is compounded, and the horse matching is one person and three horses - including two war horses and a load-bearing horse, which is very mobile. In training, he showed that he was not weak. In the exercise, it is not inferior to the Eagle Yang Army. But this army still has a worrying disadvantage - although they have been tasked with killing horse thieves and rebels in the north and south of the Tianshan Mountains, they have not yet experienced a truly tragic war, so Yang Yi has reservations about what role they can play in the upcoming war.

After crossing the three layers of soldiers and horses, there was a large tent located in a valley in a low-key manner, and there were more than a dozen garrisons looming around the valley, and Bano judged intuitively that these dozen garrisons should not exceed 10,000 people.

His estimate is not far off, although it is not far off. This group of troops is the backing force of the orphan army, a total of six provinces, mainly with horses and foot soldiers. It is trained by the militia who have been baptized by the First World War of Luntai, plus some newly recruited herdsmen and newly recruited fans. With Anxi veterans as the backbone of the provinces, battalions, teams, and fires, this army is mainly characterized by spear foot combat, and every three people are equipped with two horses, called the "spear array". Most of the men and horses of the army had experienced great battles, and their average age was about thirty or so, which was inferior to the Orphan Army in terms of sharpness, but far superior in terms of experience.

Baye was still able to swim outside the valley, but as soon as he entered the valley, he suddenly felt an unprecedented pressure!

In the valley, except for the big tent, there are only some small tents, and there are not many people stationed, probably only a few hundred people, but these hundreds of people can all give Baye an invisible pressure, this kind of individual pressure, Baye has never seen it before-good-looking novel:! Even the three leather chambers I saw two days ago, as well as the Xiaojinshan garrison that had been in Jiāo's hands before, seemed to be far inferior to these hundreds of people in the valley!

Gengxin sent Baye all the way here, and then was guided into the big tent by a captain in the valley, Gengxin went in first to see, and after a while, he came out to pick up Baye.

There was no one to serve in the big tent, only two guards were standing, and two generals were sitting, the person in front was not tall, not wearing armor, but his muscles were knotted like stones, but his small belly was quite bulging, and he was slightly blessed, but when his eyes swept over, he could still feel as if he was being stared at by a fierce tiger!

Geng Xin had already saluted: "Dudu! The two-toothed sword wolf clan chief pulled out the wild. ”

Ba Ye was taken aback when he heard this, and said in his heart: "Is it really Shi Ba!" ”

The military and political system of the Tang army has changed a lot in recent years, originally there were only Guo Luo and Yang Yi two governors, with the expansion of the ruling territory, Yang Yi who was in charge of the North Court and Guo Luo who was in charge of the river were promoted to the governors of the capital, and in the important military areas such as the middle of the river and the North Court were set up to be in charge of the army, and the wild was well informed, knowing that in the northwest under Yang Yi, there were not a few governors, and before contacting Chai Rong said that the person's surname was Shi, and there was only one person surnamed Shi, that is, the iron beast Shiba, who was known as sweeping thousands of armies!

He expected it to be good, the person in front of him was Shi Ba, he was transferred here by Zhang Mai from Broken Leaf through a secret order, in order to avoid the movement of the Broken Leaf River Valley, the army of Broken Leaf was basically not moved, Shi Ba only brought five hundred guards airborne this time, and these five hundred guards are also one of the strongest combat forces of the entire Tiance Tang Army, in terms of the same number, only the best in the leather room, Long Xiang, and Yingyang can stand side by side. That's why Batsuno feels so much pressure.

At this time, Shi Ba is no longer the small stone of the year, with the increase of experience, the eyebrows have a slight sense of vicissitudes, in fact, he is not very old, but a person who has fought dozens of battles and killed hundreds of enemies, what he has on his body is no longer the kind of murderous aura that exudes from it, but the deterrent power of not being angry and self-deterring after the murderous aura settles down.

Facing him, Bano didn't dare not bow his head.

"Are you just Baye?" Shi Ba looked at Ba Ye and said with a smile: "I heard Xiao Chai Rong say about you, it's not bad, young people should be like you - other book friends are reading:." However, Xiao Chai Rong chose the right path, but you chose the wrong path. Now in this era. There is no future in being a horse thief. He and Guo Wei are not only comrades, but also friends, so they take care of Chai Rong a little more, otherwise with Chai Rong's status, his story is not qualified to enter the ears of Shi Ba.

There's something strange about Batsuno. I thought to myself, why do you care about our past if you don't ask about the military situation? But for some reason, after listening to these words, I unconsciously got a little closer to Shi Ba. I feel that this Tang Army general, who controls tens of thousands of people and commands thousands of miles, is not unattainable.

But Bano still responded simply: "Everyone has their own ambitions." ”

Shi Baha laughed again, then stopped talking about this topic, and said in a hurry: "I heard Xiao Chai Rong say that you have Khitan military intelligence and want to sell it to me." But I don't know what the military situation is. ”

Baye said: "The place where I met Chai Rong. Three hundred miles further east, there is the Khitan army, and among the army, there is a leather room! ”

A simple two sentences, but a middle-aged general next to Shi Ba was a little moved, and said, "Leather room? Are you sure? ”

This middle-aged general's name is An Shouzhi, and he is An Shoujing's cousin, and he has never been known for battlefield conquests. He is mainly responsible for training, logistics, intelligence processing and counselling in the rear, and he is also one of the main leaders of the orphan army and the spear formation. This time the stone was airborne. An Shouzhi was sent to be Shi Ba's staff officer.

"I'm sure, and I've captured a leather room. "No more hiding. After telling how his lair was requisitioned by the Khitan and how he encountered the leather room, An Shouzhi heard that he had also captured a leather room, and immediately asked, "Where is the captive?" ”

Baye was already prepared, and said, "Bring it, just outside the valley." ”

An Shouzhi whispered a few words to one of the guards, and the guards immediately took the order.

If it had been placed before, Shi Ba must have been very excited when he heard that there was a battle, but at this time, he didn't react, just asked An Shouzhi and said, "King Yongkang?" Who's that? A fierce general in the Khitan? ”

On the use of force, Shi Ba has the courage of ten thousand people, but he is not familiar with the characters of the enemy country.

An Shouzhi said: "King Yongkang is Yelu Ruan. In a few words, Yelu Ruan's origin was clearly explained.

Shi Ba smiled when he heard this: "So, isn't that the son of Zanhua Living Buddha?" ”

Baye didn't know who the Zanhua Living Buddha was, so he listened to An Shouzhi's words: his muscles turned, and his heart said: "Could it be that this Zanhua Living Buddha is the Khitan human emperor Yelubei?" How did he become a living Buddha! ”

Shi Ba smiled again: "If that's the case, then wouldn't they be able to reunite father and son this time?" ”

An Shouzhi glanced at Bano and said, "The two countries are fighting, even if it is a father and son, they will kill each other face to face." ”

Shi Baha laughed and said: "What two countries are fighting, the marshal said, we are here to promote Buddhism this time, not to fight between the two countries." It is best that the Dharma of the Living Buddha can make Na Yelu Ruan put down the butcher's knife and become a Buddha on the ground, then it will save a lot of things. Haha, haha......"

The more he listened, the more he felt confused, the rumors about Shi Ba were either bloodthirsty iron beasts or sweeping thousands of armies, but this time he suddenly led a large army to come, and he actually said something to promote Buddhism, but it made people too embarrassed.

An Shouzhi refused to leak too many secrets in front of the wild again, so he didn't speak, and only asked: "On the Khitan side, how many people are there, what news can you find?" ”

Ba Ye said: "According to the Nakhitan Pi Room that I captured, there are 100,000 troops. ”

Shi Ba scoffed when he heard this, and An Shouzhi also said: "Impossible. That's just empty talk. Not to mention that for the sake of the south, Mobei Jīng Rui was transferred south by a large number of chōu, even if there were so many people left, it would never be possible to mobilize so many people as Yelu Ruan—Yelu Deguang would not be at ease to give him such a large number of people. ”

Although Baye is clever, when it comes to national politics, he can't talk about it—other book friends are reading:.

Shi Ba asked An Shouzhi: "You see what this Yelu Ruan suddenly came here for this time. ”

An Shouzhi said: "There are two possibilities, the first is that Yelu Deguang wants him to come to death, borrow our hand, and take the opportunity to eradicate the Yelu Bei lineage. The second is that Yelu Deguang is really preparing to attack Luntai in order to divide the battle situation of Ganqin. Of course, if Yelu Ruan was not doing what he was told, it was another possibility. ”

Shi Ba asked again: "According to you, how many people there are?" ”

An Shouzhi said: "Even if Yelu Ruan has a leather room army in his hands, there shouldn't be a lot of them, and there can be four or five thousand people to the top, most of them are not so many." But he inherited his father's legacy, and many Khitan relatives were close to him, so there should be a considerable number of Khitan relatives who could be mobilized. Maybe nearly 10,000 people. But Yerod was very suspicious of his lineage, and should have restricted it, even if it was around a few thousand. ”

The so-called Khitan people are the Hui people, Xi people and other ethnic groups that are close to the Khitan, and these people are united with the Khitan. It can also get better weapons and equipment, and its combat effectiveness is very considerable, and its jīng sharp is not necessarily inferior to the leather room army. Even some of the soldiers of the leather room army originally came from the Khitan clan.

An Shouzhi continued: "As for the miscellaneous tribes that Yelu Ruan recruited along the way, the number may be more than 10,000 people. But these people are also only numerous, so there is nothing to worry about. ”

"That can't be said either." Shi Ba said: "There are more people. It's still a hassle. Especially those boys from the first nine provinces. Actually, I'm still a little worried. But since Yelu Ruan is here, no matter what his purpose is, this battle will still beat him. ”

An Shouzhi looked at Ba Ye, and Shi Ba knew that he was worried about leaking the military situation, so he smiled and said to Ba Ye: "You really don't want to serve our army." I can tell you to serve our army now. There are great benefits, maybe after this year, it will be possible to pay homage to the marquis. ”

Bano doesn't believe it. Xin said: "I came to the battle, and at most I could only be a pawn." "He won't be cannon fodder. Then he knelt down and said: "The herdsmen in the mountains and wilderness are only willing to live in pursuit of water and grass, and do not want to be officials-good-looking novels:." Please make it happen. ”

Shi Ba said: "Your temper is hard enough and smelly, but you have an appetite for me, and then you brought me information about the enemy, if I have fulfilled you in peacetime." But now that you have strayed into our army and know many of my secrets, I can't just let you go. Therefore, in this battle, whether you want to or not, you have to help in the battle. But I can promise you that I will not ask you to be a pawn in battle, but I will send you to Chai Rong and be controlled by him. When I get Yelu Ruan, then I will allocate two or three hundred miles of water and grass for you, and you will be allowed to form a family of your own, which can be regarded as under the jurisdiction of my Tang Dynasty. What do you think of this condition? ”

Baye already knew that Chai Rong was Zhang Rong at this time, and said in his heart: "If Chai Rong is restrained, he will not let us be sent to death." Then he bowed and said, "Yes!" ”

Shi Ba waved his hand and said, "Then go down and go to the front line to listen to the order." ”

After Baye went out, An Shouzhi said: "This person just came, I'm just afraid of ......" Shi Ba said: "Let's ignore such a small matter, let Chai Rong deal with it." Hey, I was thinking about whether I could let the striker Tǐng enter Wushan, and then the banner was shown, but now it seems that there is no hope, so I can only fight him here. ”

An Shouzhi said again: "Fight now?" Do you want to wait for General Oishi's men to follow? We only have 16 troops on hand now, and we are afraid that there will be some shortcomings. ”

Shi Ba sneered: "I Shi Ba has 10,000 people in my hands, who are I afraid of!" Although my subordinates are not old subordinates, but a group of new soldiers, but I don't care about a mere Yelu Ruan. Besides, the distance between the two sides is only three hundred miles, and we can detect them, will they still be completely in the dark by us? This battle has to be fought, but it is just a little earlier than we expected. Hmph, I originally thought that I would meet Yelu Chache, but who knows what Yelu Ruan bumped into first. ”

An Shouzhi said: "If this is the case, then I have to quickly inform General Dashi and Li Shumi first, so that they can be prepared." ”

Shi Ba laughed and said, "Not only that, but also send someone to inform Zanhua Living Buddha...... Wait, just send that leather room captive, doesn't he claim to be Yelu Ruan's personal guard, if it is really Ye Lu Ruan's personal guard, maybe he will recognize Ye Lu Ruan's Lao Tzu. Ha ha. That's it! ”

————————

Four hundred miles away, Yelu Ruan had already noticed that there was something wrong with the movement ahead.

This time Yelu Deguang invaded the south, he got the news from Han Yanhui early in the morning, and found out that the Tiance army had a large-scale troop transfer operation in Ganlong.

"If the Eagle Yang Army moves eastward, then the North Court will definitely be empty!"

The Khitan, like Tiance, has the ability to fight on multiple fronts, and of course this multi-faceted battle must be non-primary. If Zhang Mai went west, the Central Plains and the Khitan were enough to compete with the Tiance regime, Zhang Mai could not fight at the same time, and although Yelu Deguang invaded the south this time, he was dealing with the same Tiance regime, so Yelu Deguang still had the spare strength to send a partial division to test the reality of the North Court.

He ordered his brother-in-law Xiao Han to recruit envoys to the northwest, guard Zhenzhou, the center of Khitan rule in Mobei, and ordered Yelu Cha to be the west to conquer the west, Yelu Ruan to conquer the capital in the west, and lead the army to the west to conquer the northern court. Strategic planning on the Khitan side. If Beiting is well defended, then this round of temptation xìng attacks will play the role of dividing the strength of the Ganlong army, but if Beiting is really as empty as Han Yanhui's detailed work system reported, then this temptation will become a real surprise attack, and the army can sweep west. swept through the north courtyard, broke the wheel, and then threatened Qiuzi and Yanqi. Cut off the connection between Ganlong and Anxi.

After Yelu Ruan received the order, he invited himself to be the vanguard, and he had more than 2,000 leather room troops under his command. The combat strength of the Kinclan is more than 4,000 people. Along the way, they also recruited all tribes and tribes, and a total of more than 10,000 cavalry of all tribes were mixed.

The small accident that occurred when collecting the two-toothed sword wolf and the loss of a few leather chambers was not a big deal for Yelu Ruan, and it did not affect the progress of his march, but the scouts he sent out found out about the difference four hundred miles east of Xiaojin Mountain! It seems that the Tiance Tang Army also has military operations in this area!

Yelu Ruan's deputy general Yelu Anjun is a well-known figure in the Khitan tribe, and his father Dieli followed Yelu Abaoji to fight in the south and the north, the battle of Mobei Blockade, the battle of the southern party of Tao, and the battle of Donghu and Bohai. All have the back of Yelu Dieri, which has a lot of influence in the Khitan, after the death of Yelu Abaoji. Shu Luping weighed the system, and wanted to make Yelu Deguang the emperor. Yelu Dieri supported Yelu Bei's argument and was killed by Shu Luping in prison - other book friends are watching:.

You must know that Yelubei is the eldest son after all, and he is deeply rooted in the country, and it is impossible for Shu Luping to really kill all the people who may be close to Yelubei. Yelu Deguang valued the power behind Yelu Dieri, and comforted his son Yelu An, Yelu Anlu had no different ambitions on the surface, but secretly he was very close to Yelu Ruan, and their father and son were in the same line, and they all supported Yelu Bei's line.

This time, Yeluan was originally under the command of Yelu Cha, Yelu Ruan invited himself to be the vanguard, and Yelu Anjun took the opportunity to invite himself to be Yelu Ruan's lieutenant general, and made suggestions along the way, and collected more than 70 large and small tribes after traveling 3,000 miles, which greatly increased Yelu Ruan's strength.

However, Yelu Anjun still hinted that if he wanted to shake the foundation of Yelu Deguang and Shu Luping with this strength alone, it was best to use this as a basis to achieve military success against Beiting, expand his influence in Mobei and the Hui tribe that belonged to him, and slowly try to make a big deal.

This time, Yelu Ruan used troops in the direction of Xiaojin Mountain, just as Shi Ba used troops in the direction of Wushan, with some attempts to attack, but he did not expect that he was still hundreds of miles away from Xiaojin Mountain, and he had already encountered each other's armies.

After Yelu Ruan got the information, Shen yín said: "What did Han Yanhui do!" Doesn't it mean that the North Court must be empty! Why did Tiance dare to send someone out of Xiaojinshan? ”

Thousands of miles from east to west in Mobei, the vast Khitans were not too afraid that the Tang army would take the opportunity to attack, but according to Han Yanhui's intelligence, Yang Yi was still too late to protect himself in Luntai at this time, how could it be possible to send troops out of the country?

Yelu'an said: "The army is dangerous! Zhang Mai and Yang Yi are especially cunning, and everything they do is possible. But it was expected that Zhang Mai would not be stupid enough to send heavy troops to attack Guanzhong and Mobei at the same time. ”

When Zhang Mai was discussing the Eastern Crusade, Gan Long already had opposing voices, if Zhang Mai said that he would march into Mobei at the same time, I was afraid that the whole country would be in an uproar!

The journey of Mobei has always been fearful for the Han family, not because of how many natural dangers and strong troops there are in Mobei, but because Mobei is too poor, the benefits of capture are not large, and the cost is too high.

This wild land that stretches for thousands of miles is not like the Central Plains, which has a famous city with a sign xìng, and it will become a place when it is captured - other book friends are watching:. Thousands of tribes in Mobei, if they have to convene a meeting to sweep south to plunder the Central Plains, but if the Central Plains army has the advantage to go north to crusade, these nomadic tribes can fight if they can fight, but they can't be scattered, and they hide in the depths of the desert and grassland, how can the Han army find them? Even if there is an army of millions, they can't occupy all the oasis valleys in Mobei, and if they can't find them, they will either have to retreat to the Central Plains, or they will occupy a strategic place.

However, once the Han army's army was stationed, because the barren Mobei could not support a completely demobilized army, and if it was necessary to transfer grain from the Central Plains, the logistical problems alone would be enough to hollow out the finances of the Central Plains Dynasty. However, the Mobei clans can wait for the opportunity to move, and they can take the opportunity to counterattack as soon as there is a gap in the Central Plains army.

The reason why the Han army regarded the desert area as a daunting path can be summed up in one sentence: those who wear shoes are afraid of bare feet.

In Mobei, the Han army can win a hundred battles, but they can't afford to be defeated together, while the Hu people are not afraid of multiple defeats - as long as they are not annihilated, they hide after defeat, turn around and gather, and become an army again.

In history, the Han family pacified Mobei, even if it was the strongest Han Dynasty and Tang Dynasty, it was only done during the period when martial arts were the strongest. Most of the people within the Tiance regime, even those who had the ambition to unify the universe, believed that the Tiance army had to go down to the Central Plains first. And then try to Mo Nan, and finally deal with Mo Bei, this idea, even Yelu Deguang thinks that it must be so.

Everyone at the Khitan decision-making level did not think that Zhang Mai at this time had the ability to capture Mobei.

At this time, Yelu'an also said: "It is difficult to predict whether the North Court is empty or not. But if the Tiance army wants to capture Mobei, it is absolutely impossible. Now this army, their purpose is most likely the same as ours. ”

"You mean ......"

"Make a strong attack to share the danger of Ganlong." Yelu'an said: "They are hundreds of miles out of Xiaojin Mountain. Suddenly came out to attack Zhenzhou, but in order to make us think that they were going to attack Mobei in an all-round way. Once this news reaches the Hetao, the main force of our army over there will definitely fluctuate. Even if the emperor thinks in his heart, Zhang Mai will definitely not be able to eat the entire Mobei. But when the Mobei tribes who accompanied the army, jīng Rui, heard the news, they must have missed their relatives and their morale was damaged—other book friends were reading:. ”

Yelu Ruan snorted. He was not so great as to hope for the victory of Jerod, and although he was inclined to trust Jerod's judgment, he said, "Then this matter ...... How should I get back to the rear? ”

Yelu'an said: "We haven't understood the truth of the Tang Army yet, and it is not appropriate to exaggerate it, and it may be true in the future." It is better to report according to the truth, whether to return to His Majesty, and how to return to the emperor, are all up to the detailed and stable decision. At the same time we are still steadily moving west. Try to fight a battle with the Tang army advancing eastward, whether the Tang army is a dragon or a snake, you will know it as soon as you fight. ”

After the Tiance Tang Army returned from Zhang Maixi's expedition. gradually and consciously diluted the title of "Tiance", since the defeat of Li Congke. Even the outside world has gradually accepted the statement that the Tiance Army is the "Tang Army".

Yelu Ruan obeyed Yelu An's Jianyi, and while marching westward, he returned to the rear what he had encountered with the Tang army.

————————

If it is said that the army of this Khitan Western Expedition is a partial division of the entire Khitan military power system, then Yelu Ruan is only a partial division of this partial division, and the main force of the Khitan Western Expedition is still hundreds of miles away, and the Khitans did not expect the Tang Army to take the initiative to attack, let alone expect that the two sides would encounter so quickly, so the main force and the front have not yet met.

At this point, the situation on the side of the Tang army was similar, and there was still a large army behind Shi Ba who was continuing to move eastward. In the era of cold weapons, before the establishment of railway troop carriers, the front of large forces and logistics were often stretched far away, sometimes even thousands of miles. Like the Wuhu Luàn Hua period, the former Qin was known as a million army, but when the former army was already engaged in the battle in Huishui, the last troops left Guanzhong.

Yelu Ruan's news was 200 miles a day, and two days later he arrived in the army of Yelu Chacchi, who heard the news and summoned the army's wise man Yelu Enemy Hunt and fierce general Gong Sage to discuss.

Gang Sage smiled happily: "It's just in time, you don't need to go to Xiaojin Mountain, now it's just time to kill him!" It's best that King Yongkang don't do it first, and leave a few Tang'er for us. ”

Yelu said to the enemy: "Mobei is not something that the current Tang army can eat, even if Yang Yi's Yingyang army actually did not go to the south, he personally led the troops to fight Mobei, we are not afraid." But at the moment, there is one thing that is more troublesome than dealing with the Tang army in the west. ”

"What's the trouble? ”

Yelu Enemy hunted: "That's how to return to His Majesty." His Majesty's order is to stabilize the westward expedition in detail, firstly, to divide Zhang Mai's military situation, secondly, to spy on the reality of the North Court, and thirdly, to attack and defend, so as to ensure that Mobei is unharmed. In fact, we are not afraid that the Tang army will enter Mobei, if they really come in, 100,000 people will starve them to death, and 200,000 will make them freeze to death! But for now, it is a trick of the Tang army to defend the embankment. ”

Yelu Cha said: "You are worried that the intelligence of this army will affect the morale of the southern expeditionary army. ”

"That's natural." Yelu said: "Not only will it affect morale, but it will even affect the emperor's heart!" The victory or defeat of the Central Plains is the victory or defeat outside the house. This Mobei is my Great Khitan backyard. If there is a fire in the backyard, His Majesty the Emperor will not be able to use troops in the south. Moreover, the people who accompanied the expedition this time, the Mobei tribes are also a strong force, these people can fight but have no brains, if they hear that the Tang Army actually sent troops to Mobei, they must worry about their relatives. Once the rumors spread, it was useless to explain that Mobei would be fine. When the time comes, the details of this news to the south will bear this fault. This time, King Yongkang sent someone to pass the word, and his tone was ambiguous, and I expected that he did not want to take this responsibility. So I put this burden on to Detail. ”

"King Yongkang will also use his mind." Yelu Cha sighed and said, "With Zhang Mai's cunning xìng, it is indeed very likely that he will send a partial division to feint to attack Mobei. If I really fell for him, wouldn't it make the tribes laugh! Let's hold on to this message for now. But this Tang army that entered the country can't be let go lightly! Herald. Let King Yongkang repair them well, it is best to destroy them, and then hold the head and go to Xiaojin Mountain to drink Guan Yangwei! ”

Yelu Enemy Martyr said: "King Yongkang has a lot of meritorious intentions this time, I think he has already done it without waiting for the detailed and stable order." But dare to come and sneak attack Mobei's troops. The number of people may not be very large, but I am afraid that it is still jīng Rui, and we have to remind King Yongkang to be careful in this battle. ”

————————————

Almost at the same time - good novels:. Ba Ye, who has been given the status of "Deputy Lieutenant Quan", also meets Chai Rong, and with Ba Ye arrives with Shi Ba's order - he is already determined to attack this army.

Originally, the distance between the Nine Mansions of the Orphan Army and the Six Mansions of the Spear Formation was quite far, and since Shi Ba planned to use troops head-on. And they marched for two days in succession. Gather the great armies.

Everyone in the Nine Mansions of the Orphan Army is warlike and eager to fight immediately. In the Jiufu Governor, Chai Rong is the only one who is relatively calm-headed, and Chai Rong is actually not very outstanding among the Jiufu Governors, but this composure and composure is rare among young generals of this age.

He discussed the battle situation with Baye, Shi Octopus, Chen Fengxiao and others, and Shi Octopus Chen Fengxiao said that he didn't need to think so much, and he would start fighting when Shi Dudu gave him an order. Shibal is not a trainer for the Orphan Army. But he made great achievements in war, and he became famous as a teenager, and at least ninety percent of the 9,000 teenagers in the orphan army regarded him as an idol. Obey his command.

Chai Rong said: "The enemy army is not clear, and we must first find out the opponent's strength." ”

At this time, the first and second prefectures in front of them had already had a little small-scale contact war with the Khitan. Scouts and spies on both sides infer each other's forces from the range of activity of each other's armies.

Chai Rong sent an order to let his subordinates assist the first and second governments, and perhaps the other party's intelligence was the main task.

After Shi Ba's arrival, the total strength of the Tang army reached 16 provinces, and Yelu Ruan had 18,000 troops on that side, which was equal to each other in terms of numbers. As for the combat power, they are confused by each other.

An Shouzhi calculated the situation of the enemy and our army, but he didn't dare to be careless - because he was still not sure about the combat power of the orphan army. Although the Orphan Army behaves during the exercise, the exercise and the actual combat are always two different things!

Over there, Yelu Ruan had already raised the banner, but Shi Ba had not yet erected a big banner, he summoned the lieutenants of the sixteen prefectures, and said with a smile: "Do you know why I didn't put up a big banner?" ”

Several young lieutenants asked at the same time, "Why?" ”

Shi Ba smiled: "I'm afraid that if I put up a banner, I will scare away the Khitan on the opposite side - a good novel:!" ”

The generals laughed when they heard this.

After this meeting, Shi Ba made a decision to fight with the Khitan.

Chai Rong returned to the army and consulted with the generals again, and the generals were ready to fight. Ba Ye suddenly said: "What Shi Dudu means, I'm afraid he wants to win and kill the enemy." We want to fight, and the other side doesn't have to fight. Each other is cavalry, and they both run fast, and if one side is not ready to fight, they will run around for thousands of miles, and they can drag on for months by pulling a saw. ”

Bano is right, this area is open, there are mountains and deserts in between, and the only thing lacking is a strategic focus worthy of contention between the two sides. And now is not a period of water shortage, there is no need to seize the water source, for both sides, contact the opponent, can fight, can fight, can not fight, retreat, each other to catch up with the other side for annihilation. If you don't fight hard, it will be difficult to destroy the enemy.

Chai Rong asked, "Do you have any good ideas?" ”

Bano said: "If our troops are weak and we want to scare the other side back, of course it is a bluff. But now that you want to fight hard, it's best to show that you're weak and lure the other party to attack. ”

Chai Rong nodded and said: "This is the 'strong and show the weak' in the Art of War!" ”

Ba Ye ignored these literary and crepe literary art of war, and said: "That's pretty much what it means. ”

Chai Rong asked again: "Then how do you think you should show weakness?" ”

Baye said: "If you can trust me, let me go, and I will send some false news to the Khitan." ”

Chai Rong was silent, and finally bowed his head and said, "Okay, I'll take you to see Shi Dudu." ”

The two came to see Shi Ba overnight, except for the lieutenants of the first and second prefectures, the other six lieutenants were in the big tent, listening to Shi Ba and An Shouzhi report the military situation to the spies who returned from the first and second mansions, Chai Rong waited for the spies of the two mansions to finish speaking, and then Chā came in, first said what he had discovered, and then promoted Ye's advice, An Shouzhi did not trust Baye, Shi Ba stared at Baye for a while, and asked: "If I let you go to Yelu Ruan, how can you let him despise our army?" ”

Ba Ye said: "There is no need to tell lies, as long as I leak some true information and hide some true information, it's fine." ”

Shi Ba asked, "What real information do you want to hide?" ”

Baye said: "What you want to hide is that the commander of the army is Shidu Governor you." If the other party knew that the commander was Shi Dudu, he would not dare to attack and fight hard. ”

This flattery was just right, and Shi Ba was also very useful, so he smiled and asked, "Then what are you going to do with the true news?" ”

Baye pointed at Chai Rong and said, "The generals you brought this time are too young - this one is enough." ”

Shi Ba smiled when he heard this, and said, "It's a little interesting, it's a little interesting." ”

At present, the biggest flaw of the orphan army is that it is too young, lacks actual combat experience, and has no outstanding combat achievements, so no matter how it behaves during the exercise, it will be despised by the enemy.

Bano said, "Of course, it's better for me to be the only one. This time, before I was besieged, there should have been a lot of merchants from the east, and I am afraid that they will also be supervised. Among these people, some of them were originally sent by the Khitan to the caravan, and if we leak some of the military information we need to leak lù to them, and then put one or two of these people back, the Khitan side will know the 'virtual reality' of our army. ”

An Shouzhi stared at Bayo, still with a negative meaning in his eyes, and said in his heart: "Not to mention whether such an old-fashioned trick can succeed, just say that you may not be trustworthy." Do you know if you will be beaten after you leave our army? ”

The governors of other prefectures also objected, but Shi Ba asked Chai Rong, "What do you think?" ”

Chai Rong said: "I believe in Bayo. And if he succeeds, he will most likely be able to prompt the Khitan to fight me in a decisive battle. Even if he deceived us and sold us. Based on what he knew, he could not necessarily damage the foundation of our army's operation. More important ......"

He paused for a moment, and Shi Ba said, "What's more important? ”

Chai Rong glanced at Ba Ye and said casually: "More importantly, if Ba Ye really dares to turn his back on us, then he will have to pay the price of three hundred heads - including his own!" ”

Shi Ba laughed and said, "Yes, that's the reason! Pointing to Baye, he said, "Good boy, although I don't trust you very much, I trust Xiao Chai Rong." Go ahead, if this thing is done, it will be your credit! ”

Ba Ye bowed down to receive the order, and Shi Ba said: "Before leaving, do you have anything to say?" Baye said: "There is only one sentence to ask Shi Dudu." ”

Shi Ba said: "Say! ”

Baye said: "The Khitan is not small, are you really sure to win this battle?" ”

When An Shouzhi heard this, he shouted: "Presumptuous! ”

Instead of being surprised, Shi Ba glanced at all the young lieutenants in the tent and said, "If I have brought troops here for many years, as long as there are two or three thousand people, I can sweep away Yelu Ruan's entire army, but relying on these stinky boys, the devil knows if it will be successful!" ”

Hearing this, even Chai Rong couldn't help but rush into anger, and the captains of the other prefectures were even more angry, and the lieutenants of the fourth prefecture took a step forward and said loudly: "Governor! That's too contemptuous! If I win a head-on decisive battle and do not win, I am willing to be dealt with by military law! ”

The other five lieutenants also stood up and said in unison: "We are also willing to make a military order!" ”

Shi Ba said coldly: "What kind of military order is established, should you be talking about changing the text?" Whether you're a raptor or a loach, I'll know when you're done. ”

In just one sentence, the governors of all the prefectures were blocked like a plug, and everyone couldn't wait for the Khitan to open now, so they could get on the horse and fight!
