In the big tent of the Chinese army, Li Xuan, Li Jinxing, Shi Xuan, and Xiao Siye surrendered at the same time.

"Others, please, the king of Nanchang stays." Liu Xianli suddenly spoke, Li Xuan was slightly stunned, stopped and turned around.

"The prince came with Ben Shuai." Liu Xianli stood up and walked towards the back tent with Li Xuan.

Li Xuan raised her eyebrows, looking surprised, but she still followed Liu Xianli into the back tent.

A familiar figure stood in the back tent, and Li Xuan suddenly lost his voice: "General Xue." ”

Pingyang County Prince, Acting Governor of Prefecture, former Right Weiwei General Xue Li, Xue Rengui.

Li Xuan turned around suddenly, looked at Liu Xianli, and said in disbelief: "That was a scene just now?" ”

"Not exactly." Liu Xianli waved his hand and invited Li Xuan and Xue Rengui to sit down together, and then spoke: "Since the first battle before March, Wang Xiaojie's troops have held Wuhai steadily, and there has been no rash move.

After that, although there was grain and grass transportation, but there was no further trend, in this case, as a prince, would you think more? ”

"Yes!" Li Xuan took a deep breath and said, "The last general wonders if there is some conspiracy planned in secret. ”

"Lord Wang, please continue." Xue Rengui opened his mouth and looked at Li Xuan calmly.

Seeing Xue Rengui's appearance, Li Xuan somewhat understood, these two guys, I'm afraid they have reached a tacit understanding.

After a little contemplation, Li Xuan said: "If this king is talking about Qinling, he will inevitably suspect the true purpose of our army, send people to spy on the truth of the army, and oppress Wuhai. ”

On Qinling's plan, it was to lure the enemy into going deeper.

Even if Liu Xianli is cautious by nature, it is a little strange that Liu Xianli is still unmoved when Qinling leaves so much room for combat.

Even in the past few months, the military strength of the reinforcements in Wuhai has not changed much, and it has always remained at 5,000, which is weird.

"With 5,000 people, it's okay to guard Wuhai in the summer, but in the winter, I'm afraid it won't be able to hold it at all."

Li Xuan took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "At this moment, if you think about the fact that the army never thought about establishing more stable places on the plateau before, even if you can't help but think about Qinling, have we never thought about guarding Wuhai." ”

"Even if our army is short of food, can't we deceive him?" Xue Rengui raised his head and looked at Li Xuan curiously.

Li Xuan shook his head directly: "If our army is short of food, why do we need to arrange so many troops to stay in Dafeichuan, even if it is a little withdrawn, it is better than doing nothing." ”

"Therefore, we need to expose our conspiracy to the eyes of the Qinling in advance, if we can defeat it, then we can go further, if not, then we can take the opportunity to retreat, at this time, we have to keep up if the Qinling does not follow." Liu Xianli slowly spoke, his expression steady.

Li Xuan turned to look at Liu Xianli and asked in a low voice, "What if the Qinling Tomb is also a feint?" ”

"Does he have time to feint?" Liu Xianli asked rhetorically.

Li Xuan was stunned for a moment, then nodded, then looked at Xue Rengui and asked, "How did the general arrive at Dafeichuan so early?" ”

"Because we have to transfer troops." Xue Rengui smiled and said: "The army of Youweiwei is not said to be able to come, and if the governor gathers an army in other places, it will inevitably attract attention, so I will come to Dafeichuan first...... After all, if there is only one governor, he will not be able to consume much grain and grass. ”

"So when will the Right Guard Army arrive?"

"After July." Liu Xianli said in a deep voice: "After July, west of Qugou and west of the Yellow River, there is no military order, no one is allowed to pass. ”

Li Xuan nodded lightly, his gaze swept between Liu Xianli and Xue Rengui.

Liu Xianli spoke again and asked, "Does the prince think that there are still loopholes in Ben Shuai's plan?" ”

Li Xuan glanced at Xue Rengui, Xue Rengui shrugged indifferently, Li Xuan had no choice but to speak: "There is one." ”

"Where?"

"Tuyuhun." Li Xuan smiled a little helplessly, and said: "If Xiao Wang is talking about Qinling, then at the same time as the attack, I am afraid that the Guangjun will let the first part of the Guangjun army descend from the mountains on the east side of Kunshan in Qingxi, attack Delingha directly, and then drive Tuyuhun to Chaka, and finally rush to Qugou, or Dafeichuan, to cut off the grain road." ”

Liu Xianli waved his hand directly and said: "This is still the policy of the year, but now the grain road of my dynasty is in Xinghai." ”

"Qugou is not far from Xinghai." Li Xuan raised her head calmly

Liu Xianli's face became solemn, but he still spoke: "There are 6,000 Turks in Chaka, and there are 3,000 Zuo Wuwei in the Northwest New City. ”

"The light army doesn't need to attack the city head-on, they just need to bypass it, with the speed of the light army, Zuo Wuwei and the Turks may not be able to catch up."

Li Xuan turned to look at Xue Rengui and said, "When the time comes, it is very likely that the Guang army will drive the 10,000 Tuyuhun army and kill the Dafeichuan, and at that time, the Qinling Tomb should also come down from the mountain." ”

"When the time comes, Ben Du will be able to kill him in one fell swoop." Xue Rengui's expression was full of ruthlessness.

Li Xuan wanted to say something, but at this time, he sighed lightly in his heart and closed his mouth.

After a moment of silence, Liu Xianli took the lead in speaking: "What the prince said is right, Delingha is indeed a risky place, and it is necessary to strengthen the guard force, how about transferring the left guard general Qi Biming?" ”

After the weather warmed up, the general of the left guard, Qi Bi He Li, was much better, and he had the right to be assisted by good talents, and the army was unhindered.

At this time, the Left Guard General Qi Biming could be mobilized.

"Yes!" Xue Rengui nodded.

Li Xuan also agreed: "Yes, but it's good to hold the city, without the Tuyuhun people as a servant army, six thousand Turkic soldiers can still stop them." ”

"Six thousand Turkic soldiers." Liu Xianli looked at Li Xuan and asked, "Why is the prince so jealous of the Guang Army, and the six thousand Turkic cavalry is not enough to besiege them?" ”

"Not enough." Li Xuan shook his head directly and said, "Xiao Wang once prepared to fight with the Thousand Light Army.

Traps, surprise attacks, and all kinds of means, with 200 casualties of soldiers, in exchange for 1,000 light army preparations for total annihilation; If it is a head-to-head battle, I am afraid that I will not lose forty percent, and I don't want to win this Thousand Light Army Reserves.

Therefore, if it is a head-to-head battle with the main force of the Light Army, the right guard iron cavalry under the command of this king may be compared with them one by one. ”

The black-armored iron cavalry under Li Xuan's command, in the entire Tang army sequence, there are few who are sure to defeat them.

Li Xuan said this, which is enough to prove the strength of the Light Army.

Liu Xianli turned his head to look at Xue Rengui and asked, "What does Brother Xue think?" ”

"Although Xue fought with the Guangjun, he didn't know that they were the Guangjun at that time."

Xue Rengui took a deep breath and said, "The Guangjun likes to hide among the Tuyuhun cavalry the most, and then give you a bite of the cold heart, which makes you grin with pain every time. ”

"In this way, after the trial leaves, everything in the camp will be handed over to Brother Xue to be responsible." Liu Xianli seriously bowed his hand to Xue Rengui.

"Whoa!" Xue Rengui returned the salute calmly.

……

"That's what Your Majesty meant." Xue Rengui walked in the rear camp, and the generals in the rear camp were not surprised by his appearance.

This is already the core of the army.

No one wants to snoop on it easily, and these people here don't allow them to leave easily.

So there's no need to worry about them leaking.

Walking to a place with few people, Xue Rengui looked at the mountains in the distance, and said softly: "Your Majesty is using the Pengcheng County Duke as bait to fish for the Qinling, and he himself wants to gamble to see if his strategy can work." ”

Li Xuan bowed slightly, no wonder, it seemed that Liu Xianli's expression was always a little unexpectedly excited.

With Liu Xianli's many years of experience in the sea, everything shouldn't be.

Xue Rengui opened his mouth and asked, "In the opinion of the prince, what is the result of this battle?" ”

"On the master of the Qinling battle, he is very good at fighting downwind battles, trying his best to avoid headwind battles, if the plateau is defeated, then he will sweep down the trend, and Dafeichuan is in danger." Li Xuan shook his head slightly, both sides were calculating each other, they were both knowing each other, and Li Xuan's understanding of the Qin Tomb now was far beyond before.

"If it is Wang Xiaojie, what about the death battle of Hei Yachang, and the Pengcheng County Duke finally set fire to the enemy in Changshui Pass?" Xue Rengui asked rhetorically, Li Xuan couldn't help but be stunned, and his face was gloomy.

They are using the 20,000 soldiers on the front line as bait, and if Qinling wants to swallow this bait, I am afraid that it will not be easy for them.

"If that's the case, then it's already a fluke that he can be spared." Li Xuan sighed in her heart.

If the Tang Dynasty is defeated, with its own backing, it will lose up to 30,000 soldiers, and Changzhou will not be in danger, but Li Xuan's death will fight with the Qinling Tomb.

If Tubo is defeated, all the 60,000 or 70,000 troops under the command of Qinling will have to die in Changzhou, and even the soldiers in the Baihai and Tongtian River areas behind will also die.

The winner takes everything and the loser has nothing, and this is the battlefield.

Li Xuan suddenly frowned and said, "On Qinling, he is very human, he must have extraordinary means. ”

Li Xuan looked up in the direction of Wuhai and said in a low voice: "But Xuan has been investigating for a long time, and he hasn't found out, what is his real means?" ”

When fighting on both sides of the Shazhuyu River, a bunch of elephant cavalry came out of the Qinling.

Of course, by now, it is difficult for these elephant cavalry to pose a threat to the Tang Dynasty, but in the hands of Qinling, there must be no weak means.

Just like Li Xuan, the means in his hands are increasing every day.

On the kind of person in Qinling, what is his real means, Guangjun?

However, in the vicinity of Chaka, they had already arranged for the Turkic cavalry to guard the town.

"I always feel like I've overlooked something, but I can't figure out what I've overlooked." Li Xuan looked up at Xue Rengui.

With an army of 100,000 people fighting, even the most shrewd commander is difficult to calculate to every corner.

Xue Rengui looked at Li Xuan and asked, "Then where is our biggest weakness, and where is our biggest weakness in the situation you know?" ”

Li Xuan was slightly stunned, then his face changed greatly, and he blurted out a sentence: "Turkic." ”

"Turks?" Xue Rengui frowned, looked at Li Xuan puzzled, and asked, "Why are they Turkic, with the Right Xiaowei General Shi Xuan here, the Turks will not become a threat to us no matter what." ”

"The Western Turks rebelled, how much better can the Eastern Turks be, all the contradictions are just temporarily suppressed."

Li Xuan raised his eyes to look at Xue Rengui and said, "Uncle Shi, be careful, if in this battle, who can stab you in the back, then it must be a Turkic person, just like the Tuyuhun people back then." ”

Back then, Xue Rengui just ignored the Tuyuhun people, and was finally stabbed in the back by the Tuyuhun people.

Now, it is very likely that the Turks will follow the example of the Tuyuhun people, and once they make a move, not only will the grain supply of the army be in danger, but even the Dafeichuan will not be able to protect it.

Thinking of this, Li Xuan immediately arched his hand and said, "Uncle Shi, Xuan has to go back and arrange it first, so as not to be caught off guard suddenly once there is a change." ”

Seeing Li Xuan's impatient look, Xue Rengui nodded and said: "In this way, the prince walks slowly, the prince is careful, everything in Xiaohuashixia is your own decision, whether to fight or not, when to fight, it is all up to your own judgment, don't trust anyone else!" ”

"Whoa!" Li Xuan wrote it down carefully, and then left.

……

Thousands of black-armored cavalry walked through the grassland, and Li Xuan took the lead, and suddenly, a flash of light flashed through his mind.

Liu Xianli, he fought for the crown prince; Xue Rengui, he is the emperor's servant.

In this battle, the crown prince and the emperor are also fighting in secret.

The lives of tens of thousands of soldiers are in their hands.

Li Xuan's fists clenched tightly.
