Chapter 14: Self-defeating

In the Qi army camp, Yu Fei was bowing his head to deal with affairs, and Feng Dao hurried over.

"Dashuai, the envoys of the two departments of the fine seal and quite a super ask to see you."

Yu Fei didn't look up, and only after finishing the writing in his hand and handing it to the herald did he say:

"Pass it on."

"Yes."

In less than a moment, Feng Dao and Li Sicun walked in with a few party members, led by a tall young man, wearing iron earrings, and a black snake spitting a letter on his neck, which was quite hideous.

"The fine seal department, quite the super department, see the handsome."

Yu Fei stretched out his hand and raised it falsely.

"The Chinese saying is good, don't be polite, give a seat."

"Xie Dashuai."

Several people sat on the small pony that Feng Dao had brought and thanked them.

Yu Fei nodded and asked:

"The envoys came, I don't know what the two heads of the fine seal and quite a super have to say?"

The young man hurriedly got up and knelt on the ground, and said with a humble expression:

"Dashuai, my fine sealing department and Pochao department are the most loyal people of the Tang Dynasty, I dare not say to see the teaching, the head of my department, seeing the great handsome, saw that the big handsome was violent, so they sent me and others to explain the misunderstanding to the big handsome."

Yu Fei smiled, and his tone was a little mocking:

"Misunderstanding? You have been protected by the Tang Dynasty for a hundred years, and you don't want to repay the service, and you often rob the Tang people, is this a misunderstanding? ”

The young man who was quite superordinate hurriedly kowtowed several times and said:

"Dashuai Mingjian, this is all done by some small tribes under his command who don't know what to do, and we will never dare to offend Datang Tianwei."

Yu Fei looked like he was smiling, and said lightly:

"Oh, I see, but my army went out once, I can't run in vain, since you said that it was done by small tribes, then good, Ben Shuai will not embarrass you, hand over those small tribes, Ben Shuai may be forgivable."

The party youth crawled to the ground, and his voice was even more humble.

"Dare not respect the order of the marshal, the marshal will wait for two days, and our department will definitely send those who are not long-sighted to the marshal in person."

Yu Fei nodded, and said in a calm voice:

"Okay, in that case, Ben Shuai will wait for good news, so let's step back first."

"Yes, I'll leave first."

After everyone bowed to Yu Fei three times and bowed nine times, Li Sicun led everyone out of the big tent.

After a while, Li Sicun turned back, Yu Fei smiled, and said in a deep voice:

"General Li, the party will definitely come to steal the camp tonight, and when it gets dark, you will take 5,000 cavalry to ambush him and kill him back."

Li Sicun hugged his fists as it should be.

Feng Dao on the side was a little confused, and asked stupidly.

"How did the marshal know that he would come tonight? And our army is several times the party's item, he is not so bold, shouldn't it be the best policy to defend the city? ”

Yu Fei didn't bother to answer such a low-level question, and lowered his head and continued to deal with military affairs.

Li Sicun still knew that the handsome man valued this young scholar a lot, so he explained:

"The last general doesn't know how the marshal knows that they will come tonight, but the camp is small and big, as long as it succeeds, it is a big victory, although the party learned from the Tibetan half-herding and half-farming, but did not learn the siege and defense of the city in Tibet, the cavalry field battle is their strength, and defending the city is just a dead end."

Feng Dao listened to this explanation, and then suddenly realized, and after bowing down and thanking him, he asked again:

"Then why don't you plan it, lead it to the big camp, and annihilate it in one fell swoop, wouldn't it be good?"

Li Sicun glanced at Feng Dao like a fool, and muttered in a low voice, "Sure enough, he is not a scholar, he is all handsome." ”

After speaking, he didn't bother to pay attention to Feng Dao, and after bowing to Yu Fei, he withdrew from the camp.

Feng Dao looked puzzled, but he didn't dare to ask again, so he could only return to his seat in a muffled voice.

Yu Fei sighed, put down the brush, and said lightly:

"But Dao, it's a good thing that you have an idea, but the army fights, it's not that simple, our army is more than 200,000, and the camp stretches for ten miles, even if the protection is good, it is difficult to ensure that there will be no accidents, if you put it into the camp, once there is an accident, the army will have a camp roar, and it will be a catastrophe."

"As long as our army doesn't make mistakes, just one Yanzhou, but only 30,000 or 40,000 horsemen, can it block a blow from our army? Isn't it a small thing to forget if you don't do anything wrong and go down a dangerous road? ”

After listening to Yu Fei's words, Feng Dao realized how confused he was, his face turned red, and he got up and saluted:

"Thank you for your advice."

Yu Fei nodded, thought for a moment and said:

"Since you are interested in leading the troops, then the commander will order you to visit the camp in turn, talk to those low-level sergeants, talk about what they want most, and then summarize and report it."

Feng Dao saluted, Yu Fei nodded and said:

"Let's do it now."

"Yes, the next official will retire."

Yu Fei waved his hand and continued to bow his head to deal with military affairs.

......

It was the night party that really attacked, and as soon as he left the city, he was raided by Li Sicun, and the person who was originally attacked became the person who was raided, and he was in chaos in an instant, and was chased and killed by Li Sicun, and almost broke Yanzhou City directly.

In order to increase the probability of success, they also deliberately sent people to bow down in front of Yu Fei and make a small appearance, wanting to lower Yu Fei's vigilance.

The result was naturally a snake that Yu Fei saw through at a glance.

And the Xifeng Department and the Pochao Department who failed to steal the camp only had two ways left, either to escape from the Great Wall overnight with their clansmen, or to fight with Yu Fei with the advantage of cavalry.

After a quarrel in the middle of the night, the two departments were reluctant to survive in the pasture for a lifetime, and decided to fight Yu Fei outside Yanzhou City.

The next day, the party cavalry drove out of the city one after another and delivered war letters.

Yu Fei laughed and agreed immediately.

At noon, Yu Fei led 15,000 cavalry against more than 40,000 cavalry.

There are many party soldiers, but they are gathered from dozens of tribes, large and small, and in Yu Fei's eyes, it is a rabble that is not good.

Feng Dao stood on top of the watchtower, watching Yu Fei lead the army like a quick knife to cut meat, every time they hedged and entangled with each other, they would cut off a large piece of each other, and his mood was stirred and he applauded loudly.

Dingyuan City has belonged to the frontier at the end of the Tang Dynasty, and since the late Tang Dynasty, the imperial court has been weakening day by day, and the envoys of the major festivals are only concerned about competing for territory, although there are also those who can defend the country against foreign enemies, but there are very few.

Since Feng Dao followed his uncle to Dingyuan, he had to encounter the party to loot every year, when the year was good, he would come once or twice, and when it was bad, this family would come to that house, and all the busy work for a year would be gone, not to mention, and if it was not good, he would be taken prisoner and taken as a slave.

There is no greater hatred of these party members than of these people who suffer from time to time.

Now seeing the invincible party cavalry in the past, under Yu Fei's hands, like a baby dancing sledgehammer, looking powerful, but useless, Feng Dao was happy in his heart and didn't know how to describe it.

And after more than an hour of entanglement, the party members have been killed by Yu Fei, in this short period of time, their own side has lost tens of thousands of horses, and Yu Fei's casualties are less than 1,000 people, how to fight?

Some small tribes began to fluctuate, and after being scattered by Yu Fei for thousands of people again, these small tribes have begun to have people with their clansmen and break away from the Xifeng Department and the Pochao Department.

And Yu Fei ignored these small tribes, and after seeing Yu Fei let these people go, more people began to break away, and there were originally more than 30,000 flying cavalry brigades, but they fell apart in an instant, leaving only more than 10,000 people.

Seeing that the general trend had gone, the Fine Seal Department and the Pochao Department wanted to withdraw with the soldiers and horses, but it was easy to come, but it was difficult to return.

At this time, after losing the numerical advantage, he was even more vulnerable to facing Yu Fei, and he was scattered in only one round.

Without a unified command, these scattered party cavalry were chased and killed by Yu Fei everywhere, and in the end, only the leaders of the Duochao tribe escaped from the Great Wall with less than a thousand people, and the rest died or surrendered.
