Hearing that Luo Shixin was training troops at the border, Liang Shidu did not sleep in a stable day, and strictly guarded it, for fear that the army would come to the city that day, and cut off his emperor's luck for many years.

Luo Shixin's reputation has been too strong recently, and Liang Shidu is now in trouble at home and abroad, and he does not have the courage to face Luo Shixin. can only ask the Turks for help, and then retreat in the city to defend it, constantly inquiring about the movements of the Tang army.

It was found that the Tang Army was really training troops at the border, and had no intention of attacking.

Liang Shidu breathed a sigh of relief, but he didn't dare to be careless, for fear that Luo Shixin would come and suddenly attack, and sent scouts to pay attention to the movements of the Tang army, and let Liang Luoren personally guard the city defense.

Because of Luo Shixin's play, Liang Shidu even gave up the pursuit of Yan Pei and Xi Junmai.

Liang Luoren has to go around the city tower every day, and he doesn't have much loyalty to Liang Shidu, but the Liang family has been inherited for thousands of years, and he doesn't want the Liang family to cut off his hand like this.

Recently, he has been pondering Luo Shixin's intentions, and it is impossible for him to have no intentions for an inexplicable military training.

It's just that there was so much commotion but no response, and I really can't figure out what their purpose is.

"There is only passiveness and stubbornness, so as to respond to all changes." Liang Luoren thought about it for a long time, but he could only come to such a conclusion.

"Hey, what's that?" At this moment, the soldier in charge of the city defense suddenly exclaimed.

Liang Luoren looked for prestige, and a knight ran over from the opposite side, holding a flag in his hand, as if he had come to deliver the news.

"Let him come forward!" He said in a deep voice, his heart like a mirror. The intentions of the Tang army are about to be revealed.

Come and ride and get closer.

Mo Hu'er came to the city tower, raised his horsewhip and pointed high: "I am Mo Hu'er, the commander of the army under the command of the general of the town army and the governor of Gyeongju, is there anyone on the city tower who can be in charge?" Come out and talk to me......"

Liang Luoren gave the general beside him a look. The general's name is Ma Wei, who is in charge of the defense on the city wall, and at this moment, he was instructed, poked his head out, and said in a loud voice: "I am the general in charge of the city defense, what do you have to say?" ”

"Hah!" Mo Hu'er shook his horsewhip and said loudly: "A gatekeeper." Count Maozi as the main thing. While going cool, find someone who can really talk. He looked at the Shuo Fang soldiers who were waiting for the battle, and a contemptuous smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: Since he followed Luo Shixin to fight the world. He admired his boss so much that he threw himself into the ground, and he himself became more than the top, and he didn't look at it in his eyes.

Ma Wei was so angry that his face turned pale, and he just wanted to take a bow and arrow and shoot it over. Crucifixion of the other party to the city.

Liang Luoren blocked him. stepped forward and said: "I am Liang Luoren, the general of the Great Liang, if there is anything, you can tell me." ”

Mo Hu'er said: "Finally, there is a weighty one." My great general told me to tell your emperor that he had just returned from hunting in the Turks. When I went, I forgot to say hello. Remember, I will speak to you, and I will borrow from you. That's it, hurry up and report to ......" said that he didn't wait for Liang Luoren to reply. He pulled the reins and walked back.

Liang Luoren's face was also displeased.

Borrow!

What kind of way is this?

didn't even let them reply to the excuse, and it was clear that they would be informed. Forcible passage guò.

However, Liang Luoren didn't have time to take care of so much, and from Mo Hu'er's words, he heard something crucial.

Turkic! Hunt!

He would not have thought that Luo Shixin had really gone to the Turks to "hunt", and it was not difficult to guess the meaning of "hunting", and he regarded the Turks as prey...... This Luo Shixin's arrogance and rampant are gone, but judging from the situation, their gains should not be small, otherwise they would not be so public.

Without any hesitation, Liang Luoren sent someone out of Shuofang to inquire about Luo Shixin's news, and on the other hand, he returned to the Shuofang Palace and told Liang Shidu of the situation.

Liang Shidu was half shocked, and said in a trembling voice: "You mean, training or something is a disguise. Luo Shixin's purpose was to plunder the Turks? ”

"You can't be wrong!" Liang Luoren didn't know how to describe his mood at the moment, he had only heard of the grassland people going south to rob their Central Plains people, and had never heard of the Central Plains robbing the grassland people. But they took the opportunity to ride away, unaware. Now that they are fully loaded, they must have looted too many supplies to speed up. couldn't hide it from us, so he simply sent someone to speak up. I've got people to find out what they're doing, do you want to block their way and take them down in one fell swoop? At this, a fierce look flashed in his eyes.

Luo Shixin's surprise attack this time, there are definitely not many soldiers and horses, and they have a great chance of winning.

Liang Shidu was taken aback, and hurriedly said: "No, Luo Shixin is so arrogant, there must be a backhand." We are sending troops at this moment, and we cannot guarantee that we will not fall for his tricks. As long as we keep it convenient, there is no need to risk attacking. He wants to pass by, let them pass by, and we take Shuofang's safety as our first priority. Hardly any hesitation, Liang Shi vetoed Liang Luoren's suggestion.

Because of this, Luo Shixin did not encounter any resistance, passed through Shuofang openly, returned to Yanzhou with all the spoils, and came to the foot of Lu Ziguan.

Stepping into his own territory, Su Dingfang shook his head and smiled: "This Liang division is less daring than a mouse, and he actually frightened the general like this." ”

Luo Shixin grinned and said: "Liang Shidu is ambitious, but he has no ambitions, he only needs to guard the three-third of an acre of Shuofang, he will be content." As long as he didn't threaten Shuo Fang, he wouldn't take risks. I was on the side, threatening Shuo Fang, and deliberately notifying the borrower to let him know that we didn't pay attention to Shuo Fang. He did not have the courage to risk the danger of being attacked by the border army to fight this battle with us. ”

Regarding the mentality and thoughts of Liang Shidu, Li Shimin's Fang Mou Du Duan and a vote of Wenchen have already analyzed it thoroughly.

As the governor of Gyeongju, Luo Shixin had already obtained this information, and in his opinion, the only one to worry about in the entire Shuofang was Liang Luoren. Liang Luoren is considered a middle-class talent, with good ability, if he is the master of Shuofang, Luo Shixin will not dare to use this strategy in a grand manner.

"Enter the customs and count the loot!" Luo Shixin waved his hand, and a large number of cattle, sheep and horses were driven into the pass by the shepherds.

Good count!

In this battle, Luo Shixin led a thousand elite soldiers to go out of the pass, but when he came back, it did not decrease but increased, plus Yan Pei and his party of strong soldiers and the rescued Han people, the number of people approached 14500. After careful calculation, Luo Shixin's personal guards lost 36 people, and Su Dingfang, Mo Huer, and Xue Yong's guards lost 108 people, with a total of 142 killed. Naturally, the damage they inflicted on the Turks was far more than this amount, but they mainly plundered materials, and did not count the population, so they did not count the number in detail, and the preliminary estimate was no less than four or five thousand. The most important thing was their harvest, which they plundered a total of 28,563 sheep, 3,807 cattle, and 13,021 steppe horses.

Looking at the amount counted, Luo Shixin was distracted for a long time.

The others also exclaimed in amazement after learning about this huge gain.

"Oh my God! No wonder the Turks have to come to the Central Plains every year for a walk, and it has only been a long time, which is really a good deal to make money and not lose money. Mo Hu'er's young heart almost jumped up with joy, and his eyes bloomed with a strange brilliance.

Even the steady Xue Yong couldn't help but say in the face of this: "In the future, we will go to the Turks from time to time to wander around, and we are still worried about eating and drinking?" Is it possible to make a deal with Tuli? There is no going to the Turks to rob it. We want to let the Turks know that we are only benevolent, and that we are not willing to do anything to plunder, and that if we do it, we will not lose to them. ”

"Don't say it so ugly! We call it hunting......" Mo Hu'er said seriously.

Xue Yong hurriedly changed his words when he heard this: "Yes, yes, yes, it's hunting, it's hunting, and the Turks are our prey." ”

In the frolicking sound, Yan Pei and Wang Yun glanced at each other, and each other's eyes were also full of shock, they knew that Luo Shixin had gained a lot this time, but they didn't expect it to be this huge amount. Suddenly, they all had a feeling that they had lived to dogs for the past ten years, knowing that they had been rampant on the grassland for ten years, and what they had looted was not as good as the mantissa of Luo Shixin's plunder. Nearly 30,000 sheep, 4,000 cattle, and 13,000 precious war horses, the results are really amazing.

They suddenly felt that it was the most correct decision they had made to join Roshixin, and that they would definitely have meat to eat with him.

"Don't rejoice too soon!" Su Dingfang said at this time: "This harvest can be met but not sought, next time we can be one or two percent today, we will be satisfied." ”

Luo Shixin glanced at Su Dingfang approvingly, and all his subordinates said that he really had great ability and ability, and belonged to this famous general in the future, and nodded: "The key to such a huge gain this time is sudden." As a nomadic steppe people, they live in the prairie where the weak eat the strong, and mobility has always been their strength. They have robbed us since ancient times, and we, as a people who depend on agriculture for survival, are rarely able to threaten them in this regard. In the same way, they did not guard against us from plundering them, but only fenced the cattle, sheep and horses with wooden fences, and did not have any extra precautions, so that we could get such a large amount of booty at one time. Next time they will be on guard, and it will be as easy as this time, and it is unlikely that it will be as easy as this time. However, they guarded against the first day of junior high school, but they couldn't prevent fifteen. ”

Xue Yong and Xue Yong listened suddenly, and nodded yes successively.

"I should be glad to have wine today and to be drunk today, and to have so much spoil...... It is passed down that all the soldiers participating in the exhibition will receive five sheep, a cow, and a horse as a reward, and the money and military salary will be calculated separately, and I have specially prepared a triumphant armor for you, and they will be distributed together. With a smile in his eyes, Luo Shixin seemed to see what was going to come. (To be continued......)
