A wicked expression appeared at the corner of Rhondarma's mouth. In the Blue Sea Star plane, he should have inherited the throne and become the king of Zampu, but unfortunately, in the Tang Dynasty Phantom World, he could only be a thousand-year-old prince. His impatience has long been unbearable.

This time the dispatch of troops was a golden opportunity for him to show the courage of the royal family. He must show the head of Wuru that he has the power to command the army, and he can no longer let the old king of Zampu crush him. He hoped that he would be able to capture Chang'an City before King Zampu conquered Shazhou.

Secretly, Shanthro supported Langdarma to the throne. But on the surface, he must fulfill his duty of loyalty to the old king of Zampu. Rhondarma's demands left him torn between them.

"Prime Minister, are you afraid that I won't be able to defeat Tang Bing?" asked Langdarma, dumbfounded.

Shang Siluo looked embarrassed, and couldn't help but squint at Shang Wanwan.

"Your Royal Highness the Prince, the Tang soldiers have just arrived, and they need to be in full swing, so they need to attack the city first, exhaust their morale, and wait for their strength to be embarrassed, and then go down with a blow. At the end of the day, I will accompany His Highness and open the way for you. Shang Wanwen immediately spoke.

"Well, that's not bad. The general deserves to be the leading general of our dynasty. Rhondarma nodded in satisfaction.

"What the general said is very true. Our army is holding Xiao Pass steadily, they are more anxious than us, and they will be impetuous, once they can't help but attack the city, we will take advantage of the situation to counterattack, and the gain will be great. Shang Siluo looked at the military map and agreed.

"Prime Minister, why don't you go to the city wall to watch the Tang army's formation and then make arrangements?" Tuoba Huaiguang glanced at Shang Wanwen, who made a patient look at him.

"That's right, why don't the prime minister go to the city wall to see the appearance of Tang Bing's army. "On the fear of heat lazily said.

Shang Siluo glanced coldly at the fear of heat, and then spoke: "Today, our army is coming from the starry night, and the people are sleepy and lacking, so we need to recuperate before we can fight. Today you will go and rest, and tomorrow we will go up to the city to have a look. ”

After saying this, he smiled slightly, turned around and walked away.

"The old man who wants to die to save face will not die. Looking at his back, he couldn't help but sneer and whispered.

Shang Wanwen and Tuoba Huaiguang looked at him together, their eyes full of vigilance. Ronpho glanced back at them, and turned away.

On the day when the Xihu army entered Xiao Pass, the morale of tens of thousands of defenders of Xiao Pass was greatly boosted, and they cheered in unison, shaking the heavens and the earth. They had long been disturbed by the high morale and laughter of the Tang Army under Xiao Pass, and they were shocked by the Flying Fish Ladyship, and they were extremely unhappy. Now taking advantage of the good opportunity for the prime minister to personally lead the army to respond, he vented all the gloom in his heart in one breath.

"The Xihu army has arrived!" The shouts of scouts and sentinels suddenly sounded in the Tang military camp under Xiao Pass.

What followed was the cheers of the Tang soldiers. The cheers directly overwhelmed the Hu soldiers on Xiao Pass.

The Xihu soldiers on the pass were all stupid, and the enemy's reinforcements were coming, so happy? Why?

Hearing the cheers of the Tang soldiers, Tuoba Huaiguang and the monk maid came to the city at the same time and overlooked the military camp of the Tang Dynasty. At this moment, in the Datang camp, countless soldiers raised their spears and put their helmets on the tips of their spears, shouting and playing with joy.

Shang Wanwen looked at the Flying Fish Lady ship parked in front of the gate and fell into deep thought.

"General, this ship can really fly. Tuoba Huaiguang leaned into his ear and whispered.

"Hiss......" Shang Wanwen gasped, "I heard the generals who attacked Shazhou say about this, and I thought that they were making excuses for their rout after being raided by the Tang soldiers. If that's true, it's not a good thing......"

"After the Tang soldiers arrived, they did not immediately attack the city, but set up this wooden donkey camp in front of the city to defend the camp. It seems to be waiting for our reinforcements to arrive. Tuoba Huaiguang whispered.

"It's more than that. Shang Wanwan's eyes were like falcons, "The arrangement of this wooden donkey formation reminds me of what Grandpa once told me that Tang merchants went to the Western Regions to sell goods, and when they encountered thieves, they must form such a circle with camels, and the accompanying bodyguards used this as a cover to use crossbow machines to kill bandits, and they were often able to win more with less." ”

"Tang Bing put up this formation, could it be said that it is estimated that our army will let go of horses and charge into battle?" Tuoba Huaiguang couldn't help but ask.

"With this celestial ship, there are a lot of changes in the siege style. If the Tang Fu mage and the crossbowman got on the boat, drove the boat to the city pass, and poured firepower, our army and the Tang army would exchange advantages, and they would inevitably suffer heavy casualties. Shang Wanwen said while thinking, and her voice subconsciously became louder.

"When the time comes, our army can only retreat into the bunker of the city pass, waiting for the rain of arrows and fire to end. Tuoba Huaiguang lost his voice.

Or...... The Tang soldiers did not need to attack the city at all. It is only necessary to use this wooden donkey formation to defend the camp, block the southeast road of our army's horses, and then fly through Xiao Pass with this flying fish boat to cut off the retreat of Xiao Guan Road. I can't wait to advance, I can't retreat. As long as the Tang soldiers guard for seven or eight days, we will have no food and grass, so we can only kill horses to satisfy hunger. When the time comes, my 200,000 troops will break their legs, and the momentum of catching turtles in this urn will also be there. Shang Wanwen smashed her fist on the battlement of the city wall, and she was anxious.

"General, how is this good?" Tuoba Huaiguang just intuitively felt that Tang Bing was in such a situation, there must be a big move, but he didn't think it was so clear. Shang Wanwen saw at a glance all the possible actions of the Flying Fish Lady's ship, so that the crisis of the Xihu army was visible at a glance.

"For today's plan, we can only raise the strength of the whole army and attack the Tang camp, if we can step on the company camp in one fell swoop, we will have a chance to win. It's just that Tang Bing obviously thought more thoroughly than us, and has already set up this damn wooden donkey array. After this battle, I am the elite of the dynasty, and I don't know how much will be left. Shang Wanwen looked sad.

"General, if we don't make a decision and withdraw from Xiao Pass, let Tang Bing take this pass. As long as they let their horses go and dare to chase them, they just send cavalry to engage them, and our army is twice as large as the Tang soldiers, and there should be a way to win. Tuoba Huaiguang asked in a low voice.

Shang Wanwen's head shook like a rattle: "Tang Bing only needs to release the heavenly boat to pour down arrow rain condescendingly, and our army can only stare dryly." When the morale is exhausted, the army is scattered, and the Tang cavalry is chasing and killing, and then people are swords and I am fish and meat. ”

"No wonder Tang Bing is so fearless, obviously wanting to wait until our army arrives, and then surround it together and let it be slaughtered. Tuoba Huaiguang gritted his teeth and was ruthless.

"What I said just now, you must keep it secret, and don't let anyone ......," Shang Wanwan said in a low voice.

At this moment, a dark shadow flashed in the corner of his eye.

"Who!?" Shang Wanwen drew her sword and looked back like lightning, only to see a slightly familiar figure flashing at the interface between the city and the city wall.

Tuoba Huaiguang jumped up like a big peng, and landed at the entrance of the steps to the city, and as far as the eye could see, the figure had disappeared without a trace.

"Who could it be?" Shang Wanwen caught up from behind him and exchanged nervous glances with him.

At this moment, in the camp of the Tang Dynasty, Wang Zai, the envoy of Hedong Jiedu, He Jintao, the envoy of Wei Bojiedu, and Lu Junhong, the envoy of Xuanwu Junjiedu, have already arrived at the newly built camp of Baiyinyi Congjun to discuss the situation.

Lei Changye warmly welcomed them in the big tent of the Chinese army, and also let them taste the food of Baiyinyi's army. Wang Zai, He Jintao and Lu Junhong kept cursing in their hearts while eating to death. Bai Yinyi's food is so good, no wonder those unruly ** openly disobey orders, and want to mix with Bai Yinyi's army.

In the context of the Western Expedition, whether it was Hedong, Weibo or the Xuanwu Army, there was an extraordinary enthusiasm for resisting the enemy. Any idea of taking advantage of the western expedition to do things will be condemned by everyone in the camp. And Lei Changye is the image spokesperson of this Western Expedition. If the three jiedu envoys don't have a good relationship with Lei Changye, they will go against the Western Expedition and move against the tide, which will lead to a mutiny at any time.

Although they were 10,000 dissatisfied with Lei Changye's digging of the wall, they didn't dare to show it, and they had to greet him with a smile.

"Lord Lieutenant, since the heavenly ship has already arrived at the pass, why don't you take advantage of the fact that the Xihu army has not arrived to attack the city?" He Jintao couldn't help but question Lei Changye's decision in the big tent. He began to suspect that Lei Changye had the idea of letting the Three Towns Jie Du take the lead.

"Lord Lieutenant, our army's equipment is far less sophisticated than Bai Yinyi's army, it's no problem to wave the flag and shout, if you really go up to attack the city, my soldiers' armor is not strong, I'm afraid I can't catch it." Lu Junhong said with a sad face.

Wang Zai and He Jintao squinted at him and pouted with disdain. In the army of the three towns, Lu Junhong has the most soldiers, and the armor is the most expensive, so he shouldn't cry poor here.

"This ...... Lord Lieutenant, after the 200,000 troops of Xihu entered the city, the whole battalion of Bai Yinyi's army cheered, what is going on? Could it be that Lord Lieutenant wants to eat the 200,000 troops above Xiao Pass in one bite?" Wang Zai was the only one who cared about the success or failure of the Western Expedition. In addition to his own attachment to Datang, he also hopes to show himself in this battle, so that the grassroots tooth soldiers will trust him more and work with him to deal with the Hedong Warrior Group.

In case Lei pulls his crotch for a long time, he will also be unlucky and lose his prestige in the army, and the group of damned generals who have been waiting for the opportunity for a long time will probably eat him alive.

"Wang Jieshuai, I don't have such a big appetite to eat so many Xihu soldiers. Lei Changye smiled, "However, the gathering of various forces in Xihu is a rare and good opportunity, so that our army can enter Xiaoguan without spending a single soldier." ”

"Is there such a thing?" He Jintao and Lu Junhong both smiled contemptuously. Lei Changye does not have a reputation for being good at fighting, at most he is good at cleaning up the mess in Jiangnan and Chang'an. Isn't this inflated?

"Lord Lieutenant, the military aircraft is a major event, it is by no means a child's play, this time the Xihu Army does not just want to hold Xiao Pass, they also plan to break down our army company camp in one fell swoop and release the horses to the southeast. If our four armies are defeated here, Chang'an will be in danger. Wang Zai frowned and said.

Wang Jieshuai is worried about the community, and his heart is commendable. Lei Changye nodded and said, "He Jieshuai and Lu Jieshuai don't need to worry, this battle will end at noon tomorrow." At that time, we should hold a banquet in Xiao Pass to celebrate the recovery of Xiao Pass. ”

"Then I'll wait for the good news from the lieutenant. He Jintao arched his hand.

"If the Lieutenant is of any use to us, he will give him orders. Lu Junhong said as a chicken thief. He saw that Lei Changye looked like he was in his chest, and it was estimated that he would not need Xuanwu Army, so he made a personal favor by the way.

"Lieutenant, if things don't go well, our Hedong Army can flank the Xihu Army. Wang Zai added.

Lei Changye glanced at him sideways: "Since Wang Jieshuai has this intention, then please stay for a while, and we will talk about the deployment of the Hedong Army in detail." ”
