Guo Shidao estimated that Liu An would come back in about half a month, but his prediction did not come true, half a month passed, Liu An had no news, Yang Dingguo sent someone to investigate, but Zhang Mai said: "We have to trust Liu Sima." With Liu Sima's ability, even if there is an accident, at least he will be able to send someone back to deliver a message. ”
They did not waste this time waiting for Liu An, Zhang Mai joined Guo Shidao to further reorganize the Tang army.
Guo Shidao thought that the name of "Wolf Tooth Battalion" was nondescript, so he changed it to "Long Xiang". shouted at Yang Yi to expand the camp, and Guo Shidao also acquiesced. Under Zhang Mai's Jianyi, he selected 600 people from the "Fang Gui", and 300 of them were incorporated into the Yingyang camp. According to Zhang Mai's method, 240 of them were selected, and the veterans of the Flying Bear Battalion were used as the backbone to form a new battalion Guangwu Battalion, and the remaining 60 people were left to fill the gap in the Flying Bear Battalion. According to the same method, 600 people were selected from the New Broken Leaf City Civil Department, the Tang People of the Zangbei Valley, and the Black Head Wuhu of the North Marsh, and 540 people were selected from the 600 people, and mixed with their teams, respectively, 60 veterans were selected from the Xiaocai Battalion and the Leopard Tao Battalion as the backbone to form two new battalions, Zhenwu Battalion and Xingwu Battalion, and the remaining 60 people were to fill the gap of Xiaoqi and Leopard Tao. The three battalions of Guangwu, Zhenwu, and Xingwu did not have captains for the time being, but Yang Sanggan, An Shouye, and Zhong Min were the deputy captains to lead the troops and horses.
Since then, the Anxi Tang Army has eight battalions of Longxiang, Yingyang, Feixiong, Leopard Tao, Xiaocai, Guangwu, Zhenwu and Xingwu, of which the two battalions of Longxiang and Yingyang are 600 people each, and the remaining six battalions are 300 people each, a total of 3,000 people. Zhang Mai and Guo Luo were responsible for the training of the Longxiang Battalion, Yang Yi and Murong Chunhua were responsible for the training of the Yingyang Battalion, and the other three battalions were uniformly trained by Guo Shiyong.
Guo Fen ignored Zhang Mai after he slapped him, and he didn't speak when they met, Yang Qing and the others said: "It's nothing, it's okay when Fen'er is angry." But no matter how Zhang Mai teased her, she didn't speak, as if there was no Zhang Mai in front of her.
Zhang Mai has lived in the Anxi Tang Army for so long, and from the women's speech reactions, he has long known that these daughters of the Tang Dynasty are not very concerned about the kind of little white face skills of giving flowers and gifts, joking and making romances, there is a saying that "the beloved holds the halberd in the bright light, and the husband swears to live and die together", it is good to have a gentle husband, but the premise is that the husband must be able to win glory on the battlefield! Otherwise, the light will be graceful and flamboyant, which will only increase the disgust of the girl from a good family. It can be said that the super combat effectiveness of Datang men is also very related to the expectations of Datang women for them!
Zhang Mai wanted to win a big victory by himself, thinking that he would be able to win Guo Fen's favor when he came back this time, but he didn't expect that Xiao Shi's few words that should not be said would make this qiē effort go to waste, although Yang Qing and others said that Guo Fen was just angry for a while, but somehow, Guo Fen's tone was delayed, every time he thought of this, it was really sad and sad, and what kind of Wuhu No. 1 beauty naturally had no time to think. The red flags at home haven't been done yet, so how can you think about the colorful flags outside!
In the midst of distress, Zhang Mai turned his grief and anger into strength, took Long Xiang Ying to exercise every day, and used physical self-abuse to get rid of the excess hormones in his body. The real chief instructor of military training in the Longxiang battalion is actually Guo Luo, Zhang Mai is the spiritual leader of this battalion, and he is also the No. 1 trainee in Tianzi.
Go to climb the dunes in the morning, go to practice equestrianism in the afternoon, interspersed with horizontal knife training, bow and arrow training and queue training, and some people are arranged to practice spears, those strong men will be selected to practice Mo knife, Mo knife is not easy to build, the number is not enough, use the tomahawk instead, the tomahawk is not enough to use the copper hammer, practice until late at night every day, the sun has not risen on the second day Zhang Mai got up, he himself is "energy" nowhere to vent, active masochism, but the recruits were fucked to cry dad and call mother, It's just that Envoy Zhang himself is also running in front, so it's not good for the recruits not to follow. Only a pervert like Little Stone would be happy with this kind of training.
After more than half a month of masochistic military training, Zhang Mai's sword skills and riding skills have improved by leaps and bounds, of course, the progress of the soldiers of the Longxiang battalion who were abused by him is not worse than him.
"See! The Longxiang camp has already gone out, can we fall behind? Yang Yi shouted! He made a cruel rule: every day he must get up earlier than the Longxiang camp, he can't come back until the Longxiang camp has finished practicing, and he can't sleep until the Longxiang camp sleeps. If it weren't for the strict precautions at the mouth of the valley under the lamp, if it weren't for the dangerous vast desert after leaving the valley, I don't know how many people would have escaped in the past half a month! But after staying up for more than half a month, when the body's reaction caught up, I gradually got used to it.
If you work so hard, your physical energy will naturally be greatly consumed, and you will eat more. Thousands of people in the valley under the lamp have consumption but no production, although this time in Yibohai grabbed a lot of money and grain, but half of the wheat in half a month has been eaten, the sheep also eaten nearly a third, although there are a lot of gold and silver treasures and coins in the hand, but these things can not be eaten, there is no place to buy things in the valley of the lamp, seeing that the old capital is going to be moved again, the Cangcao military officer in charge of logistics Guo Taixing came to complain to Guo Shidao, saying that either we have to find a way to reduce expenditure and limit rations, or we have to hurry up to open source. Although the Tang army was not going to run out of food soon, Guo Taixing, who was in charge of logistics, naturally knew that he couldn't wait until that day to start thinking of a way.
Guo Shidao thought about it and said to Yang Dingguo: "It's time to let the children go out to move their muscles." ”
Yang Dingguo said: "The information is unknown, and it seems that it is not appropriate to act rashly." ”
At this moment, the newspaper reported: "Liu Sima is back!" ”
Guo Shidao was overjoyed: "Please!" ”
Zhang Mai, who was training outside, also rushed back when he heard the news, only to see that Liu An had not taken off his Zhaowu costume yet, and only drank a few sips of water, and then reported to Guo Shidao and others the harvest of this time when he went out.
The news was not as good as expected, and Liu An's first sentence was: "I can't find out the news of the Zheng family!" ”
The generals sighed, all of them were quite disappointed, and Zhang Mai asked, "Then have you seen Tang Min?" ”
Liu An shook his head helplessly: "No, I first mixed into Talas, followed to Ja Ersi, and then went to Julan City, I almost didn't see that Ba Ersi and Julan City were obviously Han Chinese, and there were many yellow-skinned and black-eyed merchants in Talas, but they didn't speak Tang Yan, Turkic dialect, Tianfang dialect, they were all very fluent, without any Central Plains accent. I asked a few businesses on the side, but none of them heard the surname Zheng, and when I got to the last household, I saw that the other party began to be suspicious, so I didn't dare to ask any more. ”
Guo Shidao sighed: "It seems that most of the Zheng family has an accident.
Zhang Mai saw that the morale of the people was a little low, and encouraged: "It's better if there is no Tang Min, then we will treat them as enemies thoroughly, and we don't have to tie our hands and feet to do things." ”
All the generals said: "Not bad! ”
Liu An also nodded and said, "But there is news that I don't know if it's good or bad - we talked to herdsmen and merchants, and found that they don't seem to know what we have caused chaos in the north." ”
All the generals sighed, and Yang Yi shouted: "How can that be!" Let's involve several Khans of the Uighurs, what Toulon Khan and Bogra Khan have all suffered defeats under us, and the people here don't know! ”
Liu An smiled and said, "Actually, it's not strange. First, maybe Barasagon felt embarrassed, and he was afraid that people's hearts would be unstable, so he deliberately covered it up. Second, although the Talas side and the Shattered Leaf River Valley are only separated by the Kulan Mountains and the Broken Leaf Desert, it seems that they are completely two worlds, so it is possible that the inhabitants of the two places do not communicate much. Ayi, you'll know when you have the opportunity to go there in the future. ”
Yang Yi said: "It's definitely going to be a walk!" ”
Guo Shidao took out an old map and asked, "Do you know the situation of the deployment of the Hui people's troops?" ”
Liu An shook his head, opened the map, pointed here with his hand, pointed there, and said, "These, these, these, are all outdated." Now out of the desert, on this line, there are three main cities, one is Talas, one is the city of Kulan, and the other is the small city of Baersi, which is sandwiched between them. ”
A sand table was laid out in the tent of the Dadu Protectors, and Liu An held a map in one hand and drew a simple map on the sand with the other: "This is the easternmost city of Julan, located under the Kulan Mountains, about two or three days away from the northwest of Julan City, about four or five days away from Talas in the west of Julan City, and about three or four days away from Talas from Jalan City." ”
These three places seem to be on the same line on the map, but the road in reality cannot always be straight, if you look at the real road, then these three places just form a very flat triangle, the city of Kulan is located in the southeast, Talas is located in the southwest, and the jaw is located at the north apex. From Talas to Kulan City, you can take the Lower Ba Ersi first, but if you take the straight road to the south, you can save a day or two.
Liu An said: "I will pretend to be a herdsman and wander outside the city, and I will pretend to be a merchant and blend into the city, but after all, I am a student, and the management of the Hui people is quite strict, so I can't go deep into the news I found, but I just understand a rough idea." Talas is located on the border of the Uighurs and the Samanid Empire, with heavy troops deployed all year round, and there are many merchants in Kulan City, and it is difficult to distinguish the depth of strength. It's just a small town, with only a few thousand inhabitants and little oil. Moreover, these three cities are at the corners of each other, and if there is something happening in one place, the other two places can be arrived within a few days, so if we want to fight these three places, we have to use surprise soldiers and fight quickly! If there is a delay, within ten days reinforcements from the other two places will arrive. ”
After he had said this, he turned his gaze to Zhang Mai to see what he meant, and Zhang Mai asked, "Talas is Satuq Bogra's territory, right?" Have you heard from him? ”
Liu An smiled: "This is good news, Bogra Khan is not in Talas now, and it seems that he has been away for a long time." This news can be corroborated by the information we have obtained from the north, and it should not be wrong. ”
Zhang Mai pondered for a long time and said, "Our short-term strategic goal is to try to obtain food supplements, that is, to find a suitable place to loot. The goal in the medium term is to disturb the sight and hearing of the Hui people, so that Bogra Khan will be confused by our tracks from north to south, and even to make him exhausted. As for the ultimate goal, it is to find a base that can not only connect with the Central Plains, but also recuperate. The short-term goal is the most urgent, but it is necessary to try not to interfere with the ultimate goal, and even lay the foundation for the ultimate goal......"
Speaking of this, he paused and said, "But the information we have obtained now can be said to be all flashes, but it is no wonder that Liu Sima is no wonder." He's close to the limit of what he can do. From ordinary merchants and passers-by, it is naturally impossible to know too much about the dynamics of the top management of Talas, and it is still necessary to get further useful information from the elites who have a close relationship with us. If we had the Zheng family as our internal response, things would have been much easier......"
Yang Yi said: "But the Zheng family doesn't know where to die now!" ”
Zhang Mai muttered: "There is no ready-made road in front of us, so let's raise our bare feet and step out of a road, what do you think?" ”
The generals laughed in unison: "Of course it's good, what are you afraid of!" ”
