Chapter 114: Decisive Killing

There were more than 3,000 men and horses in Huaihuang City, five war battalions, an auxiliary battalion, and four reserve battalions, and their numbers far exceeded the 1,000 Bayegu cavalry wandering on the dam. Moreover, on the periphery of Huaihuang City, there are thirteen combat halls and more than a hundred large and small cottages under each rudder, and the number of all the people and horses of these outer halls and rudders is still more than 5,000. If someone on the side of the Huaihuang Chief Rudder had already made a decision and ordered the men and horses of the chief rudder and the sub-rudder to be gathered, then their men and horses were almost seven or eight times as many as the Bayegu people. However, at that time, the alliance leader Murong Qiang Rose was not at the helm, and the left and right envoys in Huaihuang City did not belong to each other, plus they were afraid of the fierceness of the Bayegu cavalry, and the fighting spirit of the people and horses in Huaihuang City was not high, whether it was the left and right envoys above or the master of the hall in charge, or the minions of the building lord below, they did not want to take the initiative to fight with the fierce Mobei cavalry. They usually go out to rob a caravan and attack a small tribe very actively, but in the face of the fierce Mobei cavalry, they are all bullying the soft and afraid of the hard, preferring to stay in their own castle and wait for these people to take the initiative to leave after they have robbed enough.

Since the beginning of the reorganization of troops in Huaihuang City, rumors have begun to circulate in Liancheng that the alliance leader will take the initiative to lead his troops to attack. At first, it was just a rumor, but it soon became true.

After the deliberations in the Gathering Hall were over, the orders of the Acting Alliance Leader were quickly conveyed to the battalions. Four of the five combat battalions were selected as the team for this battle, and the auxiliary battalion was also ordered to prepare for the expedition, and only the first battalion of the middle battalion was assigned to Pei Zeng, the deputy leader of the alliance, and stayed in Huaihuang. All the rumors about the battle have now vanished, and they are clear. After the order was given, in the barracks of the East City. Hurried footsteps were everywhere, and countless anxious faces were heard. These original minion bandits, many inexperienced newcomers. Nervously turning east and west, their preparations before departure were affected and delayed by the nervous, almost panicked and frenzied feelings, but there were also a large number of minions, who had participated in many expeditions to go out to raid, and at this time they were very calm and prepared. looks down on the panicked behavior of the newcomers. However, from their stern expressions and anxious gazes, it still revealed their desire for the beginning at this time. There are no worries about the large-scale field battles that have been experienced, terrible steppes. It's not that they haven't fought with nomadic cavalry, and they can ambush and attack a small group of tribesmen with less than 100 people at most, such as facing a big scene like thousands of fierce Mobei cavalry. Neither have they experienced it.

The sun set below the western horizon in a golden glow. By the end of the night, the sounds of panic had quieted down.

The whole castle was gradually shrouded in silence, as quiet as the grassland of the four plains.

On the White Tiger Stage, Ling Yun stood on the stage and stared at the deep dark night, and at his feet, the little wolf Gray Wind squatted quietly on the side.

"It's another good weather tomorrow!" Ling Yun said lightly.

Gao Bo, who was standing on Lingyun's side, said: "Everything is ready, only the east wind is owed." After tomorrow, the sky on this dam will change. ”

Pei Zeng said with some concern: "Let Zhang Sheng and Luo Fang lead the troops to fight." Wouldn't it be too risky? Although the centaurs have been reorganized, after all, many of them have been controlled by Zhang Sheng and others before. Our men don't have full control over this army yet, just in case."

"There will be no just event, and there will be no just event." Ling Yun smiled confidently. Zhang Sheng, Luo Fang and others were opposed to him, and this knot was difficult to untie. Since it can't be unraveled, then just cut it off with a knife. Ling Yun tried his best to dig the pit step by step, and now Zhang Sheng, Luo Fang and the others are finally about to jump into the pit, at this time, there will be no eventuality, and no case will not be allowed. For this step, he had already made many preparations. Although the half-month reorganization training was only a showmanship, the biggest purpose of this reorganization training was not to increase combat effectiveness in the short term. The real role is to collect the soldiers and horses of Zhang Sheng and others, and use this time to completely disrupt their soldiers and horses and reorganize them with other soldiers and horses, and hold all the command power of the middle and upper echelons in their hands. Now even if Lingyun gives Zhang Sheng and Luo Fang their command of the troops, but there are still officers such as the chief manager, the building master, the team leader, the chief, and the army commander below them, and most of the original subordinate officers have been dismissed or appointed as deputies, and most of the soldiers have been scattered, and it is impossible to regain control of the military power.

"Don't worry, tomorrow Zhang Sheng will be defeated by the hands of the Wild Guren." Ling Yun paused, "In the end, it still depends on our inner army hussars." ”

Even if Zhang Sheng took 2,000 people out of the city to fight tomorrow, which was twice as many as the people of Bayegu, Ling Yun didn't pin his hopes on them at all. For Ling Yun, letting Zhang Sheng lead the troops into battle has two effects, the first is naturally to use them as bait to lure the wild guys to take the bait, and then his inner army will kill the guys. Second, he wanted to use the hands of the Yegu people to completely trample the opponents Zhang Sheng and Luo Fang to the ground. Zhang Sheng was defeated, and he would win a big victory, trample down his opponents, and establish his own prestige, so as to truly control the Tigers. Otherwise, why would he be so troublesome, he really wanted to deal with the Baye Guren, there was a way, but he chose the most troublesome one, naturally it was killing two birds with one stone, the drunkard's intention was not to drink, and it was the second time to beat the Yegu people, and it was the real purpose to take the opportunity to sweep away Zhang Sheng and the others in one fell swoop.

After returning to the study, Ling Yun went to the Dexing Inn again and had a secret meeting with Tuoba Hengdao.

"After tomorrow, I don't want to see Zhang Sheng, Luo Fang, Xue Liang and others again." After Ling Yun met, he said directly to Tuoba Hengdao.

Zhang Sheng and the others have a deep-rooted influence in the Tiger Alliance, and even if Zhang Sheng is defeated this time, they will still have a lot of power in the alliance. For Ling Yun, this was a problem for him to control the Tiger Alliance. He didn't have time to dwell on them all the time, so he did it when it was time to do it, and he was not welcome.

Tuoba Hengdao was a little surprised, but he felt that Ling Yun's move was also normal.

Once a son of heaven and a courtier, Lingyun wanted to be the home of the Tiger League, and Zhang Sheng and others were the biggest opponents. Ling Yun wants to get rid of them, it's normal. In the green forest, although everyone usually calls each other brothers, it often happens that they turn their faces against each other. All of them are only for profit, and the infighting in the green forest is more direct, and the result of turning your face is that you are dead and alive, and you will never show mercy. As for why Ling Yun left such a confidential matter to himself, this is a very simple matter, he is a powerful faction in the alliance, and he has always been a neutral faction. Although he helped Ling Yun settle Yuan Jiyao last time, Ling Yun didn't fully believe him because of this. Let him get rid of Zhang Sheng and the others, that is, let him submit his name. If he refuses, he is afraid that he will die before Zhang Sheng.

"Don't worry, there are no eyes on the battlefield, Zhang Sheng will not be able to return this time. What step does it need to be cleared to? "Tuoba Hengdao made a very smart choice, in the face of Ling Yun's strength, he could no longer remain neutral. Either you live or you die.

"Zhang Sheng, Luo Fang, and Xue Liang must die, if you have the opportunity, you can remove the eight hall masters together, and the rest is convenient for you." Ling Yun didn't think that he could use his personality charm to take these people into use, these are some green forests that lick blood with knives, to put it bluntly, they are a group of lawless outlaws. Rather than keeping it for trouble in the future, it is better to cut through the mess quickly and get rid of it directly. Especially as the core of the Eight Hall Masters, they are Zhang Sheng's hardcore cronies, and Ling Yun will never keep them as trouble.

"Understood." Tuoba Horizontal Knife Road.

"Okay, I don't ask you what you're going to do, I'll just wait for the results." After speaking, Ling Yun left.

Looking at the background of Ling Yun's departure, Tuoba Hengdao pinched his beard and thought for a while, "The killing is decisive, the old man really didn't look away." ”

Early the next morning, the sleeping people were awakened by the rapid sound of drums. In the cool morning breeze, the rumbling of war drums could be heard in every barracks, and in the hazy eastern sky, the dawn gradually revealed, outlining the city in a tall outline. Suddenly, the entire Huaihuang City was active, and even the family members in the city had already hurried from their homes to see off their families on the expedition.

The forward units of the four selected battalions quickly formed a simple formation, and this half-month training was fully displayed in front of everyone at this time. Wearing a uniform blue military robe made by Ling Yun from several joint armory workshops in Xu Dan, wearing a bronze helmet, according to different weapons, they were divided into different queues such as swords, shields, bows, spears, and horsemen. The most elite were the four cavalry buildings, and a cavalry of eight teams of 400 people was the most elite veteran of the Huaihuang soldiers and horses. They stood in well-trained and proud rows, flanked by slightly inferior archers, and then sword-and-shield men, the least experienced of them all, who had neither great horsemanship, nor excellent archery, or even dexterous combat experience, so they could only hold spears and were at the bottom of the list.

It has to be said that people rely on clothes and horses and saddles.

The soldiers are still the original soldiers, but after half a month of reorganization and training, at this time, they stand in a queue one by one, and then wear a unified new military uniform, and then they are divided into columns. The original group of lazy minions stood on the field at this time, and under the sunlight, there was also a kind of elite momentum of government soldiers. Zhang Sheng looked at this greatly changed team, and even for the first time, a sense of pride rose in his heart, maybe this time he could defeat the Nabaye Gu people in one fell swoop with this team, and it was possible to create a miracle.

Before the gloom of dawn was completely illuminated by the morning sun, four battalions of 2,000 combat troops had already lined up in battle marches under the leadership of the officers, and walked slowly and rhythmically towards the endless steppe in the distance.

When the forwards of the four battalions had left for a long time, Ling Yun began to lead the baggage auxiliaries of the last battalion, slowly driving the oxen and horses to keep up.

The gate of the desolate city slowly closed behind Ling Yun, creaking, and the rising sun finally broke through the shackles of the clouds at this time, and thousands of golden rays of light broke through the clouds, dyeing the entire heaven and earth with a layer of gold. (To be continued......)
