Chapter 167: "The Decisive Battle"
"Wednesday, map."
Back in the tent of the main formation, Chen Jing spread out the map and looked at it carefully.
The Fenglong Pass on the map, at first glance, is the last barrier in the northern frontier. But in fact, after the Fenglong Pass, nearly a hundred miles later, there is a Changhe Pass.
This old pass, although not as majestic as the Wind Dragon Pass, but in the previous time, it was also built to resist the Di people. Right now, what Li Hou means is to reactivate this old pass.
But throughout the ages, the plan to enter the urn has always been extremely dangerous.
"General Chen, what's wrong?" On Wednesday next to him, seeing that Chen Jing's face was wrong, he spoke with some worry.
"Nothing." Chen Jing shook his head, "Wednesday, go and tell the brothers to have a good rest tonight, and you will go out of the city with me tomorrow...... In addition, there is a lot of meat in the camp, so you can take some more and give it to the prisoners who are repairing the walls. ”
"Why is that?" Wednesday was stunned.
"They are also heroes who go to the north." Chen Jing was stunned word by word.
……
Just waiting for the next morning, as if there was no leisure, the more than 300 horsemen accompanying Chen Jing were about to go out of the city again. When he rode to the city gate, many prisoners greeted him and told him about the blessing of the meat last night.
Chen Jing trembled his hands, did not speak, grabbed the reins, and led people out of the left pass.
"General Chen, on the way to Hucheng, I'm afraid that another patrol rider will gather here."
"Don't go to Hucheng." After riding on a horse and staying away from Fenglong Pass, Chen Jiang looked at the desert in front of him and spoke calmly.
"Don't go to Hucheng...... What about Li Hou's letter? ”
"There is another task in the letter."
In fact, last night, when I took the letter to see it, I found that it was an empty paper, and Chen Jing burned it directly.
"General Chen, where am I going?" Wang Zheng next to him was also full of doubts.
"We'll find out when the time comes."
What Li Chong asked him to do was not to send a letter, but to use that half of the tiger talisman to go to the land of the Tibetan army and become a strange army again.
This loyal and brave marquis of Da Ran, for this game, seems to have bet everything on the table.
……
Rock Mountain, the continuous camp of Di Kingdom.
"Li Chong has transferred the army?" Sitting at the foot of the rock mountain, Huo Feng frowned.
"National teacher, that's true. Many of the armies in other places were transferred to Fenglong Zuoguan. ”
Huo Feng was not happy, thought about it and continued to speak.
"Over there in the Da Ran Chaotang, what is the situation about the matter I asked you to check earlier?"
"As expected by the national teacher, many ministers of the Ran people in the court have jointly asked for orders, so that the little emperor of the Central Plains has issued several holy orders, and he continues to urge the war in Fenglong Pass."
At this moment, Huo Feng's face slowly soothed.
"In other words, Li Chong's appearance is that he has no other way, he is transferring troops and preparing for a decisive battle with my Di Kingdom."
"As it should be. The judgment of the national teacher is not wrong, if I don't wait, the Ran people will go out of the city by themselves. ”
"I said earlier, in the court of the Central Plains, except for the big gentleman, they are all short-sighted people, and they will only protect their own interests. As for Li Chong, he is just a sheep in danger and a substitute for death. ”
Huo Feng half-narrowed his eyes and thought deeply for a while before continuing to speak.
"Pass on my military order, and the 150,000 troops of my country will do things to boost morale from today onwards. The foot soldiers wiped their knives and painted their armor, and the cavalry battalion fed the horses with good material and inspected the bows and quivers. ”
"National teacher, is this preparing for a decisive battle?"
"Yes." Huo Feng's face was calm, "Fighting on this desert, the Ran people will definitely be defeated." When the time comes, as soon as the Ran people are gone, the army of my Di Kingdom will take the opportunity to enter from the Fenglong Pass and go straight to the hinterland of the Central Plains. ”
The henchman general next to him was full of excitement when he heard it.
"By the way, there's one more thing." Soon, Huo Feng suppressed his smile.
"I went to check before, the general surnamed Chen, how did you find out?"
"Got some."
"Speak."
"His name is Chen Jing, but it's not ...... It is a sentry general of the Fuzhuang battalion. ”
"How many people?"
"National teacher, only a thousand strong new army ......"
Huo Feng pondered for a long time, "Such a strange person, could it be that he is not reused?" ”
"National teacher, even if he is very powerful, but with these people under his hands, he can't fight at all. I'll say something ugly, if he dares to appear, I, Yin Lu, will kill this little cub in the Central Plains for the national teacher. ”
"Yin Lu, don't take the enemy lightly. Chen Jing's matter, you can find a way to send someone to investigate more. The big war is imminent, know yourself and know the enemy, in order to win a hundred battles. ”
Huo Feng stood up, his hair blowing in the sandy wind.
"This time, let these Ran people have a good understanding of the elite methods of my Di Kingdom."
……
"Da Ran's 200,000 troops will go to the north in three days, and they will go out of the city to fight a decisive battle with the Di people. This time, the knife in my Ran people's hand will break the enemy! ”
Hearing the news of the decisive battle, in the Wind Dragon Pass, countless Ran pawns were excited. Many prisoners and civilians also showed joy when they heard that they would be issued armor and let them follow the army.
According to Da Ran's military law, as long as you make military achievements, you can resist the crimes you have committed and become a commoner again.
"Master Hou, the army of Fenglong Pass, and even the people of the whole country, all follow the will of Lord Hou to go on the expedition!" On the city wall, many generals also had compliments.
But strangely, Li Chong didn't have any surprises. There are some things that have not yet reached the time, and he does not intend to tell anyone other than Chen Jinghe and his henchmen.
This time to invite you into the urn, it was a big plan that he had decided after thinking about it for a long time. And Chen Jing, as a shadow, can't say it, he can help him close the urn lid and trap Di Guo's army.
"Master Hou, don't you still have something on your mind?" Tai Shiqing, who followed beside him, looked at Li Chong's face and hesitated to speak.
After a while, another soldier next to him answered with a sneer.
"Tai Shiqing, are you overstepping? Does Master Hou have something on his mind, what does it have to do with you? ”
Li Chong, who was looking from afar, sighed in his heart.
Whether it's Mr. Big's people or the eight families, he doesn't like them all. Only that Chen Jing is the most in line with his heart. This is also the reason why he chose Chen Jing. Although it was recommended by Mr. Big, this guy seems to be a smart person who doesn't like to mix.
"Pass my military order, reward the three armies tonight, just wait for the time to come, follow me out of the city to kill the enemy." Li Chong stopped the quarrel between the two, and spoke in a somewhat tired voice.
"In addition, the prisoners and the people, who also go out of the city to fight, should also receive a share of the military food. If I find out that anyone is greedy for military food, he will not be spared! ”
Turning around, Li Chong walked under the city wall in heavy steps.
Without a helmet, the white silver hair fluttered in the wind all of a sudden.
