Chapter 543: Misfortune is not a one-way street
Camp of the main Turkic army.
Abandon Suel and sit in the camp tent, drinking with a kind of soldier.
"Hahaha, it's so relieving, it's so relieving! What bullshit Linghui Army, what bullshit King Zhenan, in front of our Mr. Erro, is not vulnerable! ”
"That's right! Since the formation of the Linghui Army, I have always been unable to get along with my Turks, which has brought a lot of humiliation to our army, and today's battle has finally cleared the shame of our Turkic army, Mr. Erlo, I salute you! ”
Abandon Suello and pick up the wine glass, and salute the soldiers in front of him.
"The generals have praised it, today's victory is all thanks to the protection of the immortal gods, and it is all thanks to the generals who fought bravely to kill the enemy, what is the merit of Erro?"
Seeing him so humble, the soldiers admired him a little deeper.
In the past few years, Li Hao has defeated the Turks many times and given the Turks supreme humiliation, and now he has abandoned Suerluo to lead the Turkic army to defeat the Linghui army, which can be regarded as completely winning the respect and trust of the Turkic generals.
A soldier was already seven points drunk at the moment, and he laughed: "Mr. Erro is too modest, in my opinion, the former Hades is just a child on paper, and he can't be compared with you, sir." Now that Mr. is leading us to defeat the Linghui Army, we admire Mr. so much, and when this battle is over, we will inevitably report this matter to the Khan and help Mr. become king! ”
"That's right! Only a man who has a plan like this gentleman is qualified to be called the king of Hadesalla of my Turks! ”
The soldiers were talking nonsense, and there was no objection to the abandonment of Suello, and the smile on his face became stronger.
The reason why he came here to fight Li Hao was to establish his prestige, the prestige of the Hades King is too famous, if he doesn't use his strength to prove that he is the best successor of the Hades King, how can he compete with the current Hades King?
"Report!"
Suddenly, a herald burst into the camp.
"Lord Erro, the Linghui Army has been drawn out of camp and is marching in the direction of the Keke River!"
"To the river?"
The Turkic generals were stunned when they heard this.
"Hahaha, does Li Hao'er think that the water is not enough now? Actually led the army in the direction of the river? ”
"I'm afraid that the clear water in the army was destroyed by us, and I can't stand it with thirst, right?"
"Today is thirsty, tomorrow should be hungry, how much food is left in his army!"
"Hahahaha!"
The soldiers burst out laughing.
Abandon Su Erluo's face sank, and he silently calculated in his heart, and couldn't help sneering: "It seems that there are still masters in this Linghui army, now that the rainy season is about to pass, and soon the grassland will usher in a drought, he is marching towards the river at this moment, in order to prevent there will be no water to drink in the future." ”
The soldiers were stunned for a moment, and suddenly realized this matter.
"Sir! The Linghui Army is a hundred-legged worm, and it can't give them a chance to breathe! ”
Abandon Suello nodded: "I understand, generals, can you fight again?" ”
"Of course we can, we haven't disarmed yet, we can fight at any time, this time we will definitely let these Linghui troops know how powerful our Turks are!"
"Good! Then please follow my arrangement, divide your troops into five routes, and attack the main formation of the Linghui Army! ”
"Yes sir!"
Abandon Suello smiled slightly, and he had already thought of a plan in his heart.
"King Zhen'an, King Zhen'an, do you think you can turn defeat into victory by running to the river? This time, I, the King of Hadesaro, want to show you what God's damnation is! ”
On the banks of the Keke River, the soldiers of the Linghui Army were all tired, and for three days, the Turkic army divided their troops into five routes and continued to attack them.
The grassland battlefield is their home field, and the Linghui army can't take advantage of it at all, so they can only cope with it.
The rain-soaked meadows seemed to have become a natural barrier for the Turks, who came and went in the steppe like the wind, and they could always catch the Linghui army off guard.
In desperation, the Linghui army could only bite the bullet and fight back with heavy weapons such as powerful siege ballistas, and did not dare to fight them head-on.
By the end of the three days, everyone was exhausted.
Because there were too few tents, many soldiers could only stay in the rain, and for a while, the wind and cold disease began to spread among the Linghui army.
Fortunately, the military doctors were all medical students from the Li Kingdom's academy, and the ordinary wind and cold were quickly controlled under their skillful hands.
However, the physical strength of the soldiers who had just recovered from a serious illness declined again, and they completely lost the strength to fight the Turks head-on. The form can be described as precarious.
Fortunately, the continuous heavy rain finally subsided after three days. The clouds on the grassland were beginning to open, and the soldiers finally saw the sun that they had not seen for a long time.
The sun warmed the bodies and minds of the soldiers, and also completely dried the rain in the meadow.
At least the Linghui army is fighting in the Turkic army, and it doesn't have to be as physically exhausting as fighting in the water.
The reinforcement troops also sent a batch of military tents, and the sick and wounded soldiers finally did not have to take the sky as the ground as a seat.
The situation improved slightly, and Li Hao immediately ordered to set up camp by the river to recuperate.
The soldiers were tired for several days, but they could finally take a good rest.
But at this moment, the abnormality returned.
Although the dried steppe was no longer like walking in the water, it was not soaked by rain, and the wind in the grassland was like waves, and the Turkic army was hidden in it, and it was even more difficult to be discovered, so they took this opportunity to launch several raids on the Linghui army again.
The Linghui Army, which had scarce experience in grassland operations, suffered a lot in this regard. Although they did not lose too many troops, the pressure in the hearts of the soldiers became greater and greater day by day, and their spirits were always in a tense state, and they were about to lose their hold.
In order to prevent the recurrence of the sneak attack, Li Hao had no choice but to order the army to cut down all the meadows around the camp and vacate a three-mile-wide wasteland. In this way, the situation of the Turkic army covering the sneak attack on the grassland was finally eliminated.
After that, the Linghui Army finally ushered in a few days of peace.
On this day, Li Hao and Yanyan were sitting in the military tent discussing the military situation, but Yuwen Chengyu hurriedly ran in.
"Oh no, Lord Wang!"
"What's wrong?"
There has been too much bad news he has heard in the past few days, and Li Hao is even a little afraid of hearing someone shouting about himself.
Yuwen Chengyu's face was solemn: "Lord Wang, our army's grain transport team was blocked by a small Turkic force, and it was temporarily blocked in the direction of Liangzhou and could not enter!" ”
I have to say, this is indeed bad news. Most of the grain and grass of the Linghui army have been burned, and they have already been exhausted in the past few days, and now the Linghui soldiers are all living on compressed biscuits.
Even if compressible biscuits are used at the top, they are just dry food, and one day they will be eaten, if the grain and grass troops of the Linghui Army have been blocked in Lingzhou City and cannot enter, at most half a month, the garrison of the Linghui Army will run out of food.
But this is also a helpless thing, the garrison is trapped on the bank of the Keke River, not daring to enter the steppe, and the Turkic army is still in a no-man's land, and can gallop everywhere in the distance. Without the garrison to resist, the transport team naturally cannot be unimpeded.
This time, it's really an endless loop.
But before Li Hao could come up with a countermeasure, another herald ran in: "Lord Wang, the situation in Kekehe is different!" ”
"What's wrong!" Li Hao was taken aback and hurriedly stood up.
The water source is now the last insurance for the Linghui Army, and if there is another problem with the water source, the Linghui Army may really have to withdraw the army.
"Somehow, the current of the Keke River suddenly weakened, and the riverbed began to dry up!"
"Take me there!"
Li Hao didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly followed the herald out of the military tent.
