Chapter 622: Drunken in the Barracks
Now that the general direction has been determined, it took nearly a night for them to formulate a new battle plan, and the battle near the border was handed over to Su Dingfang by Li Xiang and Niu Jinda in charge of the battle on the Wangcheng side, this guy has been here for a long time, and he knows the situation over there very well.
There are some officials who have already betrayed Gaochang and joined the arms of the Tang Dynasty, but these officials are only familiar to Su Dingfang, if Li Xiang commanded the battle in the past, maybe these people will join the queue of resistance, there are only more than 3,000 people on the Wangcheng side, but Gaochang still has more than 20,000 troops over there, and if there is no surprise attack, it is impossible to win at all. -
Su Dingfang knew more about Wangcheng, and all the officials' families were also well understood, so he divided his subordinates into a large number of small teams, and they wanted to control the entire Wangcheng in a short time.
Don't worry about the army on the eastern border of Gaochang, there is General Mo Lun in charge, this guy is already a person from the Tang Dynasty, as long as he can stand still and give us a night's time, we will be able to win.
Li Xiang is responsible for the soldiers on the western border, and there is only one night, after our victory this night, the border area will be replaced by the army of the Tang Dynasty, although we only have seven or eight thousand people, but the Western Regions coalition army wants to break through the defense of these seven or eight thousand people, they can only achieve it in a dream.
By the time the sun rises tomorrow, the entire Gaochang will become the barrier of the Western Regions of the Tang Dynasty.
There was still a day to prepare, Su Dingfang brought his personal guards, and then ran towards the royal city as fast as he could.
In addition to Wang Cheng's more than 3,000 people, the elite brought by Li Xiang also entered the territory of Gaochang in batches, and more than 800 people should arrive in Wangcheng today, and all of them will be distributed by Su Dingfang at that time, as for Li You, the king of Qi who is recuperating, fortunately this guy did not come, if he comes, there will definitely be various welcome plans in Gaochang, and it will be difficult for us to do it at that time.
Li Xiang came in lightly, except for some high-ranking officials within Datang, no one else knew that Li Xiang had set off from Chang'an City, and the secrecy work was very good.
Lord Zhao and Xiao Shougui also took their men to a safe place, they couldn't stay in the military camp of the Tang Dynasty, Li Xiang was also fully prepared, if our operation failed, then we had to transfer immediately.
Lord Zhao and Xiao Shougui are both civil officials, and their ability to escape on horseback is not good, and they can hold on for an hour or two, but if the time is strengthened, these two people can't hold on at all, so they still move them to a safe place in advance.
Of course, Li Xiang tried his best to ensure the success of the plan and not let our people have a chance to escape.
At four o'clock in the afternoon of the same day, all the troops had been prepared, Li Xiang looked at the northeast direction with some worry, that is the direction of Gaochang Wangcheng, when we act here, we must also start to act there, and we must do it at the same time.
The army on the western border of Gaochang received an order, they just want to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, whether it is the Western Regions Alliance Army or the Tang Army, they must not be mixed with me, and they must have a good relationship with the two armies in peacetime, so when the Tang Army made a move, the Gaochang Army did not interfere, and they never thought that the Tang Army would do anything to them.
Since the first day that the Tang army arrived here, it has been more than half a year now, if the Tang army wants to do something to them, there are countless good opportunities in this half year, if you want to talk about the current danger, the Gaochang army thinks that it is still from the Western Regions Alliance, and the Tang army cannot be their danger.
In this case, the Gaochang military camp faced the direction of the Tang Dynasty, basically no one was on duty, when the moonlight fell, the moonlight on the grassland was very clear, and the Gaochang military camp had entered the era of singing and dancing.
The army on the grassland has a tradition, if there is no war, then they have to sing and dance almost every day, now although it is near the border, but whether it is the Tang army or the Western Regions coalition army, it seems to have to tie them up, so their days are very comfortable, every day they go out to hunt during the day, and come back at night to roast hares and drink.
Today, as usual, in addition to sending dozens of patrols, the rest of the people are starting to have fun in the barracks, and today during the day, the people of the Western Regions Alliance came over again, sending them hundreds of cattle and sheep, and also thinking that they can join the Western Regions Alliance, even if they betray King Gaochang.
For the Western Regions Alliance, the local officers see it very clearly, but they will not betray the king of Gaochang, everyone in the family lives in the royal city, if you betray the king of Gaochang, do you wait for those people to be beheaded? Even if you survive, you're a desperate person.
Although the concept of inheritance of people in the Western Regions is not so strong, who doesn't feel sorry for their family, if they are all cut down by the king, is it interesting to live alone?
So when the Western Regions Alliance buys them, these people will take the money, but they won't do anything for you, and they can't allow you to enter the territory of Gaochang Kingdom, if you come in, it will be equivalent to starting a war with Gaochang Kingdom.
Their ultimate goal is to hope that outside the border, the Tang army and the Western Regions Alliance Army will fight together, anyway, it is not on our territory, you can fight as much as you want, the Tang Dynasty army has been frequently mobilized these days, according to their ideas, it should be to do something to the Western Regions Alliance, at that time they will lie on the hill to watch the excitement.
In this case, how could they have imagined that the Tang army would do something to them? This military camp is the largest military camp on the western border of Gaochang, with a total number of more than 15,000 people.
When Li Xiang saw all this with a telescope from a distance, he couldn't believe his eyes, even in normal times, you can't drink like this, now there are three armies around, you drink like this, where do you put the security of your country?
Niu Jinda is no longer surprised by this, the people on the grassland live like this, they don't have so much vigilance at all, but if you kill it, they will turn over and fight at any time with the strength of wine.
