With this little episode, it instead promoted the relationship between Gao Xingzhou and the Praetorian Guard.

Martial artists are like this, they don't have so many dirty thoughts, they worship the strong, and they are all young people, so they naturally won't go to their hearts.

Gao Xingzhou had a bottom of the quality of the pro-guard army, and he was even more in awe of Li Ye.

Li Ye explained his offensive strategy, and he personally led the guards to attack at night, and the Shence army supervised the battle outside to prevent the enemy from escaping at night. Gao Xingzhou heard that the emperor was in danger in person, and hurriedly advised.

The son of a daughter can't sit down.

Not to mention Li Ye, the emperor.

But Li Ye has made up his mind, the Praetorian Guard was built by him, and he must always maintain his influence in this army, and he doesn't want the people around him to become Li Maozhen, Han Jian, and the like in the future.

So he needs to be in person.

At the beginning of the Tang Dynasty, fierce generals were like clouds, but no one dared to betray Taizong Li Shimin. The reason is that Taizong himself is a strong general, fighting and charging in the front, fighting in the first battle of Wujiaoguan, 3,000 Xuanjia cavalry charged 100,000 Xia troops, and captured Dou Jiande.

Li Ye is self-aware, and he does not dare to compare with Tang Taizong, Taizong Li Shimin's martial arts strategy looks at the entire world history, and he is one of the best.

Not to mention far away, let's just say that Li Cunmiao, who will shine in the future, when he ascended the throne, the Jin army was completely in decline in front of the Liang army, and Li Cunmiao took the lead, took the lead in the charge, and destroyed Liang in a hundred battles!

Whether you can go into battle is one thing, but whether you dare to go into battle is another.

Li Ye just wants to use his actions to tell his soldiers that he is by no means a weak emperor, but one of them, and an iron-blooded monarch worth following!

If the Praetorian Guards can't even do the bandits, Li Ye can go back to the palace with peace of mind and start being a high-ranking emperor, without coming out to be embarrassed.

Because the enemy he faces is ten thousand times stronger than the bandits!

If he dies on the battlefield, it can only be said that God does not bless Tang, not that he does not work hard!

Gao Xingzhou saw the emperor's expression, and he knew that he couldn't persuade him, "Since Your Majesty is going, the last general will ask for orders to bring three hundred elites with him!" ”

Li Ye thought about it and nodded in agreement, although he was full of confidence in the Praetorian Guard, but after all, it was the first time to go into battle, and it was better to take precautions.

The plan was decided, and it was no longer delayed, and the entire Xiliu City was mobilized.

Inspired by the impassioned Tang poems for so long, the Praetorian Guards were all overjoyed, and they were finally about to see the real chapter.

At midnight, the Praetorian Guards and the Divine Guards all had murderous eyes in their eyes. When later generations read the Qingming Crossing novel, they knew that most of the soldiers had night blindness because of malnutrition.

In this era, the treatment of martial artists is better, and naturally there will be no night blindness.

After two hours of rapid marching, the gap came out, the Praetorian Guards were comfortable because of their usual training, even Li Ye didn't feel very tired, the three hundred Shence army led by Gao Xingzhou, the team was a little scattered, and some people were out of breath.

Gao Xingzhou looked at each of the Praetorian Guards wearing two layers of armor, holding spears, straddle long knives, and carrying long bows and arrow feathers, secretly speechless.

When he arrived at Qitian King Village, Ashina Zhenyan had already snooped for a long time.

"Your Majesty, there are seven secret sentry and three bright sentry in the bandit village, and the night patrol team patrols once every half an hour, with fifty people in each team, and the weapons are spears and waist knives, and there are five people in armor."

Ashina really reported in detail.

This is also what Li Ye taught, scouts must try to grasp the details of the enemy. It is not easy for a bandit village to do this, and there is armor, compared to the grass fairy, barefoot fairy and the like, it is already well-equipped.

Li Ye estimated the time, about five o'clock in the morning, this time period is the time when people are most sleepy.

"Action!" Li Ye gave an order.

Zhou Yunyi led his team to touch the many checkpoints under the guidance of Ashina Zhenyan.

After a night owl cry, Li Ye and Gao Xingzhou began to sneak into the village with a large group of men. Capture the thief and capture the king first, Li Ye's plan is to go straight to the bandit leader.

The bandit leader was easy to find, there was a simple house made of stone and wood in the valley, and there were two groups of bandits standing guard in front of the door, most of them leaning crookedly on the stake to sleep, and a few awake were also sleepy-eyed.

Zhang Xingjin took a few sturdy guards to touch it, and solved the group effortlessly.

Li Ye stood at the door and ordered everyone to set fire to everyone as long as they saw a sound coming from the house, and everyone would set fire to it and shout wildly.

The room smelled of strong alcohol, a large table was littered with cups and plates, and on chairs and on the floor, there were sleeping bandits lying in a mess.

The bandits had a good life, but Li Ye's stomach churned when he saw the contents of the plate.

A human hand bone......

The table was full of bones, beasts and men.

Heavy breathing sounded around Li Ye, and the eyes of the guards were blood-red, and they held back their anger.

"Oops!" Behind Gao Xingzhou, a Shence army exclaimed.

In an instant, Gao Xingzhou, who reacted quickly, covered his mouth.

Fortunately, it was early in the morning, and the bandits had drunk and slept soundly.

Li Ye said in a low voice: "Don't leave a living mouth!" ”

It's not that Li Ye is cruel, but he, a person who has traveled through modern times, can't accept such. These bandits are no longer human.

The pro-guard army and the Shence army were ruthless, cutting the throats of the bandits one by one.

Li Ye walked to a fat bandit on the handsome seat, wearing a tiger skin and a nondescript hat, judging by his dress, he should be the legendary King of Qi.

Li Ye gently drew his knife.

Perhaps sensing Li Ye's murderous aura, the bandit leader suddenly opened his eyes, first confused, then instantly sobered up, and shouted: "Who are you!" ”

"Flutter!" The long knife pierced through the bandit leader's chest without hindrance.

Li Ye didn't feel disgusting as in the movie, but felt happy.

"Kill!" Li Ye roared.

The Praetorian Guards in the house shouted in unison: "Kill, kill, kill!" ”

In an instant, the entire bandit village was on fire, "Kill, kill, kill!" ”

There was a roar, and the bandits, even the pigs, were awakened.

Headless flies scurried around, some fled with their heads in their hands, some took up arms and tried to resist, but before they could see who the enemy was, they were shot like hedgehogs.

In accordance with Li Ye's prior orders, the Praetorian Guard and the Shence Army only attacked those who tried to resist stubbornly, and more than 1,700 of their own Shence troops who escaped were captured.

The bandits were leaderless, the leaders were all killed at the wine table, and how could it be the opponents of the Praetorian Guards in double armor who tried to resist stubbornly?

Soon there was chaos in the bandit stockade.

Some of the cowards surrendered directly on their knees, after all, the Praetorian Guard and the Shence Army were too few to care about them.

When the sun rose over the eastern horizon, the bandit stockade returned to calm.

Five or six thousand people knelt on the ground honestly, and although there were only more than five hundred people in the Praetorian Guard and the Shence Army, many bandits had already seen their horror last night.

"Your Majesty, the outer Shence army has captured two thousand three hundred prisoners and has been escorted over." Gao Xingzhou reported to Li Ye.

"What about the casualties?"

Gao Xingzhou said: "The casualties of the Shence Army are less than 100 people. ”

Zhou Yunyi glanced at Gao Xingzhou and said, "There were no casualties among the Praetorian Guards, only one of them broke his foot when he chased the prisoners. ”

Gao Xingzhou's eyes widened in disbelief, he was born in Jiangmen and knew the general strategy well, but a battle without a person dying is a bit sensational.

Zhou Yunyi also found more than 700 women and children from the back mountain, and learned that these people were the "grain" stored by the bandits for the winter.

Li Ye felt heavy, "Let the bandits identify each other, and kill anyone who has eaten human flesh!" ”

Zhou Yunyi took the order and left, and soon the voice of crying father and mother sounded in the cottage.

After some liquidation, nearly 2,000 more bandits were beheaded.

Li Ye brought back less than 4,000 prisoners, including women and children.

The victory was a complete victory, Li Ye couldn't be happy, this era was only more than 100 years away from the Tang Dynasty, and in a short period of time, the land of China fell to this point, and I remembered that the history of the five dynasties from the end of the Tang Dynasty to the chaos of nearly 80 years. How many people have become food for others in these 80 years?

Huang Chao, Qin Zongquan, and Sun Ru are all famous cannibal kings.

Even as early as the Anshi Rebellion, Suiyang City was full of dry bones.

In history, Zhaozong was kidnapped by Han Quanzhu and Li Maozhen to Fengxiang, attracting Zhu Wen's army, the two sides fought fiercely for three years, there was no military rations, Li Maozhen ate the people in the city, Fengxiang City dog meat 500 yuan, human flesh 100 yuan, openly sold.

Zhu Wen sent an army to hunt down and kill the people in Guanzhong, pickled them into dried meat, and used them as military rations.

How brilliant the Tang Dynasty was, how dark it was at the end of the Tang Dynasty.
