Chapter 292: Encountering an army of grain and grass transportation
"Lord Wang, in the hinterland of this Xue Yantuo, there are four major tribes, namely Hui Hui, Servant Gu, Bayegu and Tiele. ยขยฃ top ยข dot ยข small ยข said x."
Because Li Yuanba adopted the method of training special forces in Huaxia in his previous life to Shenwuwei, the generals in Shenwuwei have become accustomed to obeying orders and no longer say those empty words. So after hearing Li Yuanba's order, Zhao Sanpao spoke, and the expression on his face was very strict.
"Tieler? Isn't this Xue Yantuo composed of the Xue tribe, the Yantuo tribe, and some big nomads? Although they call themselves the Tiele people, they have never heard of the Tiele tribe? โ
After Li Yuanba heard Zhao Sanpao's words, he was immediately very puzzled.
"Lord Wang, in fact, this Tiele tribe is the product of the fusion of the Xue tribe and the Yantuo tribe. And what kind of bullshit Yi Yi Yi man, and his father are all from the Tiele tribe, so many years have passed, and the Xue Yantuo tribe is used to calling themselves Tiele people, and this title will continue to be used! โ
This is not a secret thing, Zhao Sanpao and they entered the Hui tribe, and it didn't take long to get all these things out.
"Oh, I see!"
Li Yuanba nodded a little abruptly, and continued to ask: "Among these big clans, what is the current strength?" And how many soldiers were stationed in the tribe? โ
Zhao Sanpao recalled carefully and said, "Lord Wang, I am waiting for this trip to the Hui tribe, and I have just entered the gathering place of the Hui and got in touch with the secret agents of the Tianji Guard. โ
"According to the information that Tianjiwei said, the entire Xue Yantuo, in addition to the Tiele people of the various tribes who have been assigned to Shuozhou, there are still more than 13,000 soldiers in the Hui tribe, and the situation of the other three tribes is similar to that of the Hui Hui, but the Tiele tribe is slightly more in number because it is guarding the royal capital, about 30,000 people and horses!"
"Nearly 70,000 troops? His. Pacifier mouth. What do the meticulous workers of this military department do to eat? Isn't it said that the 200,000 troops outside Shuozhou City are already Xue Yantuo's entire strength? This is good, there are 70,000 more troops for no reason, so how can Lao Tzu end their nest? โ
After hearing Zhao Sanpao's introduction, Li Yuanba suddenly frowned.
Now he regrets it very much, and he will go on the expedition for Mao no later than two days, so that he can at least wait for the accurate situation of the Border Pass Tianji Guard about the Xue Yantuo tribe, so as not to become so passive as now.
"No, we'll have to think about it. Can't them hard! โ
Compared with the frontal battlefield in Shuozhou City, Li Yuanba's side seems to be more difficult.
They were deep in the hinterland of Xue Yantuo, facing not only the hidden army of 60,000, but also all the Tiele people.
If this is not done well, those Tiele people can drown them with a single spit.
"Dingfang, what do you think?"
Li Yuanba suddenly remembered the lines in the famous TV series "Detective Di Renjie" in his previous life, and couldn't help but pout and blurt out.
Su Dingfang was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect Li Yuanba to ask him. But he quickly reflected and said almost without thinking:
"Lord Wang, although there is a huge disparity in the strength of the enemy and us now, the 70,000 troops of these Tiele people are not gathered in one place. As long as we figure out where their camp is, with the strength of our Divine Guards and the power of firearms, it is not impossible to destroy them! โ
"That's right!" Li Yuanba nodded thoughtfully and continued: "But don't forget. This place is the hinterland of Xue Yantuo, even if those who are soldiers are exterminated, there are still many ordinary herdsmen in Tiele! There are a lot of them! โ
"Why did you forget, my lord. They are just the most ordinary herdsmen, those young men who are physically strong have been conscripted to serve as soldiers, and the rest are either nobles or tyrants, old people, children, women......"
Speaking of this, Su Dingfang stretched out his tongue and licked his somewhat chapped lips, and said cruelly: "Compared with our battle-hardened Shenwu guards, killing them is as easy as slaughtering a dog!" โ
Li Yuanba was slightly stunned when he heard this, and it took a while before he came back to his senses, nodded heavily, and said coldly: "The two countries are at war, and this king doesn't want our people in the Tang Dynasty to die, so the only way to do this is to let these Tiele people die!" โ
"That's right......"
Zhao Sanpao and the others nodded silently, and after a while, he seemed to remember something, rummaged in his arms for a long time, took out a piece of cloth, and said:
"Lord Wang, this is the secret agent of the Tianji Guard who infiltrated Huifu and brought it to me, saying that it is the grain and grass transportation route of Xue Yantuo's Shuozhou army. Every five days, there will be a grain and grass transport team to the direction of Shuozhou. โ
"Oh?"
Li Yuanba took the piece of cloth from Zhao Sanpao's hand and looked at it for a while, then clapped his palms and said:
"Okay, with this thing, we can completely intercept their grain and grass, so that we can not only relieve the siege of Shuozhou City, but also make them Xue Yantuo's rear chaos, as long as they send soldiers to search for grain and grass, our chance will come!"
The so-called grain and grass of these Tiele people are not grains like the Tang Dynasty, but cattle and sheep, and when these nomads are fighting, the grain and grass are often followed by a grain protection team, driving a large number of cattle and sheep to follow.
The cattle and sheep for the 200,000 army to eat, that is not a small amount, as long as the grain and grass are on the road, Li Yuanba and they will definitely find out.
"The prince's plan is very good!" Li Yuanba's voice fell, Liu Renliang nodded, and said, "Lord Wang, anyway, we also brought some mines, do you see if we bury some on their path, in this case...... Hey! โ
โโฆโฆโ
Li Yuanba glanced at Liu Renliang a little speechlessly, he didn't expect this guy with a righteous face to be so black-bellied, if he did this, not to mention how many cattle and sheep would have to be killed, anyway, these beasts would scatter and flee in all directions.
You think, the thunder in the sky, even Xue Yantuo's war horse can't stand it, let alone ordinary cattle and sheep whose courage is much smaller than that of war horses.
"Lord Qizuo, a large number of soldiers were suddenly found in the southeast direction, and they were rushing towards us, and there must be about 150,000 of them!"
Just when Li Yuanba was still lamenting Liu Renliang's black belly, suddenly a guard of the Shenwu guards on duty came to report.
Li Yuanba was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then quickly stood up, walked to the high-lying lookout point in three or two steps, and looked in the southeast direction.
Su Dingfang, Liu Renliang and others were not idle, and immediately summoned Shenwuwei to dress urgently and stood on the side of the horse to wait.
"Da Da Da ......"
It didn't take long for the sound of hooves falling to the ground from the southeast, and in addition, there were dense Xue Yantuo soldiers holding torches high.
"The number of torches alone must be almost 10,000, and with the sound of hooves falling, the army really has 150,000 ......."
The sky is already dark, this is too far away, and there are no high-powered night vision binoculars in later generations, so in Li Yuanba's opinion, this number is really a bit terrifying.
"Alas, no, this doesn't match the information given by the Heavenly Guard......"
Li Yuanba frowned, Tianjiwei has been in the various clans of Xue Yantuo for many years, and their information cannot be wrong, etc......
Li Yuanba's eyes lit up, and he took out the cloth that Zhao Sanpao gave him with the route of grain and grass, and looked at it carefully with the faint moonlight.
After a while, he suddenly pointed to the route on the cloth and said with a smile: "This is it, I didn't expect it, these Tiele people are really cunning, and they chose to transport grain and grass at night, and fortunately we happened to be on this grain and grass transportation line, otherwise, we would have let go of this fat sheep!" โ
"Lord Wang, do you mean to say that this army is the grain and grass transportation army of the Xue Yantuo tribe?"
Su Dingfang heard from Li Yuanba's words that something was wrong, not all of the feelings of this army were Tiele soldiers, I was afraid that most of the sound of hooves falling to the ground were those cattle, sheep and livestock that were selected as food.
"Although it is a little different from the previous plan, this can be said to be a godsend, Lord Wang, do you want to do it?"
Su Dingfang looked at Li Yuanba with excitement on his face, like a hair. The bull of love.
"!"
Li Yuanba's conspiracy flashed with ferocity, and he began to give orders, "Su Dingfang, you lead five thousand Shenwu guards to break through behind the enemy and release a thousand grenades; Liu Renliang, you lead two thousand Shenwu guards to assist on the right side of the enemy; Zhao Sancang, you lead two thousand Shenwu guards to assist on the left side of the enemy; The remaining 1,000 Shenwu guards should be ...... with the king's side Kill! โ
"Kill!"
Suddenly, there was a murderous roar from the Shenwu Guards.
The roar spread far away, and Xue Yantuo's army of grain carriers clearly heard this sound, and the army immediately fell into a brief commotion.
"Boom...... Baa Baa ...... Moo moo ......"
Herds of horses, cows and sheep neighed, and the sound sounded a little messy.
Walking at the back of this army of grain was a burly and wild middle-aged man who looked no more than forty years old.
Hearing this, he suddenly tightened his reins, looked at the hilly place where the roar came from, and frowned, "What sound?" Tom ......"
"My esteemed Sanka-sama!"
A thin horse, galloping like the wind, appeared beside the fierce middle-aged man with an equally thin young man.
"Go and see what's going on over there, why are you coming from such a voice......"
The middle-aged man, whom Thom called Sanka, had not finished his sentence when he was interrupted by a fluctuation that made him feel a violent shock in his body.
"Boom ......"
The earth shook, the sky swirled and the sea swirled, patches of smoke and dust rose vigorously from the rear of the army, and countless cattle, sheep and horses howled bitterly, their limbs were broken and their internal organs flew sideways by the impact of grenades.
Pieces of corpses, which were still flesh and blood, or had been scorched into charcoal by the high temperature at the beginning of the explosion, scattered in all directions, directly hitting the more than 4,000 Xue Yantuo soldiers in the rear.
In an instant, the originally very quiet grassland was filled with a breath of gunsmoke! (To be continued......)
