Night Raid on Yin Mountain 1

"Lisheng" refers to Li Shiqi, who once called himself a "Gaoyang drunkard".

Words such as "the one who will govern the great" are derived from "Liezi. Yang Zhu.

Zhang Gongjin was stunned when he heard this, in the past year, he has taken Pharmacist Li as his teacher, and he has consulted many schools on weekdays.

However, before the battle, he couldn't even understand the consideration of the teacher's decision-making, and he felt confused.

This raid marched in two sections.

The first section is the "White Road", from the south end to the north end of about Mo Baili, although it is a steep climb, but it has been taken by the Tang army.

It's just that there is no place to stay between the two ends, and it is necessary to go straight from Baidao City to Baidaoling.

Therefore, Pharmacist Li set out overnight with 10,000 elite horsemen, hoping to reach the northern end before dark the next day.

Baidao is the only passage in the middle of the Yinshan Mountain Range that can transport grain and grass, so if the Tang army wants to go north, there is no other way.

Although Jieli had lost the White Dao, Pharmacist Li knew that he was familiar with the terrain and forgave him to set up strict defenses on the White Dao Ridge.

However, it is precisely because Jieli knows the white way well that his thinking mode has fallen into the trap of inertia.

Due to the severe cold weather, the steep terrain, and the heavy grain and grass, if judged by past experience, the Tang army could only have a maximum of two or three thousand people at a time, so Jieli sent more than 1,000 scouts.

One "account" of the Turks is equivalent to one "household" of the Tang people, and there are about 5,000 people in more than 1,000 accounts.

Jieli decided that it would undoubtedly be more than enough to deal with two or three thousand tired Tang troops climbing the mountains with 5,000 troops.

It's a pity that Jieli is facing the first military god of the ages, Pharmacist Li.

In the past four years, from Luzhou, Lingzhou, and Fengzhou, to Dingxiang more than a month ago, they have seen each other many times, but Jieli seems to never be able to imagine the mystery of this military god of the world.

He did not expect that if the Tang army only carried 20 days' rations, it would not be limited to the upper limit of 2 or 3,000 soldiers.

So on this day, as soon as the Tang Dynasty striker came out of the White Road, he saw more than 1,000 campfires of the Turkic scouts in the low night, which was completely expected by Pharmacist Li.

The Turkic scouts soon spotted the Tang army coming up the ridge, and they judged from experience that they had a strong force that could annihilate the enemy, so they stepped forward to meet them.

Unfortunately, the reality was exactly the opposite of their expectations, and their own side was annihilated by the strong forces of the Tang army.

When they found out that the situation was unfavorable and wanted to report to the big tent, it was no longer time for them to do so.

Just because ......

This strategy was a surprise attack, and the Turkic scouts must not be allowed to spread the news to the Great Horde.

Pharmacist Li led the Tang army to pursue accurately, and all the 5,000 Turkic scouts were killed, killed, or captured, and none of them were left behind.

Sun Tzu. "Strategy" discusses the way of using troops: "Ten are to surround it, five to attack it, and to divide it into ......"

However, in this battle, Pharmacist Li captured all the prisoners.

Such a pinnacle of achievements, looking at ancient and modern China and foreign countries, I am afraid that only my Tang Army God Wei Jing Wugong can achieve it.

Baidaoling is about 300 miles away from Jieli's Iron Mountain Tent, and the Tang army has pursued it all the way and has advanced another 100 miles.

For two days and two nights, first climbing the steep white road, and then attacking the Turkic scouts, the physical strength of the Tang army has been greatly consumed, but the morale of the army is extremely excited.

At this moment, they not only took the former place of the Wuchuan military town, but also found that the Turkic forces were quite exhausted.

Their horses, in particular, are clearly not being cared for as they should be.

It was early February.

A month ago, Jieli fled from Dingxiang in a hurry, unable to carry grain.

Although Tieshan was originally garrisoned by soldiers and horses, the Great Khan led more than 100,000 troops to come suddenly, and the local warehouses were not enough to supply the needs.

It's a cold winter, and the grass doesn't grow.

Horses, on the other hand, are a very delicate strategic resource that must be cared for on an ongoing basis.

The use of the Jieli headquarters is still scarce, how can it fully support the scouts stationed more than 300 miles away? Therefore, not to mention the soldiers, the horses of the five thousand scouts are even weaker.

The Tang Army was the opposite.

After stationing in Dingxiang, the whole army was fully supplied.

Before this raid, preparations were made again.

Seeing that the sergeant was extremely tired at this time, he was extremely excited, and knew that his morale was available, so he only took a short rest and continued to advance.

Tieshan is the Baiyun Obo mining area in today's Inner Mongolia, rich in rare earth deposits, while the Turks only knew about iron ore at that time, but did not know that there were rare earths.

Before the Turkic state, it was originally a tribe under Rouran that was responsible for calcining iron, and the smelting technology was advanced at that time.

After Jieli escaped from Dingxiang, he chose to come to Iron Mountain to rebuild the tooth tent, precisely because there were facilities for smelting weapons.

However, there must be advantages and disadvantages, and the firelight and sound of forging weapons around Tieshan day and night made it extremely difficult for Jieli to detect the approach of the Tang army without the news of the scouts.

On the eighth day of February in the fourth year of the Tang Dynasty, the day was Jiachen.

After a night of rapid travel, the chief steward Pharmacist Li had already led a large army to a place only thirty miles away from the Jieli Tooth Tent.

If Jieli had surrendered sincerely, he should have already set off and gone to Chang'an with Tang Jian.

However, they seem to really regard Tang Jian as a Gaoyang drunkard, leaving him in the big tent, and making wine happy every day.

Tang Jian lived in the meantime, if he didn't understand his own situation at this time, how could he serve as Hongluqing under the rule of Li Shimin, who was famous for knowing people and being good for thousands of years?

At the same time, thirty miles outside the auspicious Turkic tent, the military god Li Yaoshi stopped his horse.

He first raised his eyes to look at the sky, but saw that a curved moon had quietly disappeared, and the stars in the sky were shining and flickering.

This means that midnight has passed, and there are clouds and winds in the sky.

Then he stretched out his arm and stroked the armor, feeling the temperature of the ice on the surface and the humidity of the fog.

After analyzing the current hour, as well as the surrounding wind, water vapor, and temperature, Pharmacist Li turned to the whole army, pointed his sword straight at the sky, and his voice was like a bell chime: "God help me Tang!" Heavy fog will rise in the early morning to cover the surprise attack of our troops. ”

Under the shadow of the stars, the figure of this chief steward is as lofty and majestic as a god! For a while, the army's spirit was even more excited, and they followed Pharmacist Li closely to rush in all night, and on the way, they could already see the fire of the iron mountain calcining iron.

Soon the sky will break, and the fire in the mountains ahead will disappear in the blink of an eye!

It turned out that it was the foggy season in early spring, and when the morning light appeared, the water vapor was suspended, and a heavy fog was formed.

Zhang Gongjin followed Pharmacist Li's side, and said proudly to the left and right: "Divination clouds!" The chief manager can invite the help of heaven, and the true god is also a man! ”

At this time, there was no need for Pharmacist Li's encouragement, and the army's spirit had already become more and more excited.

Everyone only hopes that the prancing horse will drive forward, cut down the wolf head of Jieli, and establish immortal feats!

Pharmacist Li ordered in a deep voice:

"Su Dingfang, you will lead two hundred Xuanjia Mo Dao as the vanguard!"

"No!"

Su Dingfang made a promise, and the two hundred brothers were able to go first, and they were extremely excited.

"The rest of the troops, follow me!"

"No!"

"No!"

"No!"

Su Dingfang led two hundred brothers, holding Mo swords and wearing Xuan armor, and lurked under the cover of the fog.
