Chapter 29: Why Are You Here?
CHAPTER XXIX
Day 2
Yesterday's shouting and killing still made some soldiers hear, but these soldiers didn't think too much, they just thought that Wang Shichong's stupid donkey sent some miscellaneous snacks to make trouble, and was finally beaten into a sieve by the recruits on the mountain.
Fang Xuanling sat in the tent, carefully thinking about the next strategy.
Those sub-Turks, he has been strictly guarded, and the genius prince, he has let people hang out, just to heal him.
After all, that guy is arrogant, and he really thinks of himself as a character without him for two days......
And Fang Xuanling is now paying attention to two letters.
Last night, Daying received two letters, one was that the spies came to report that more than 5,000 pioneers of Dou Jiande to help Wang Shichong had crossed the Tiger Prison Pass, and the second was a good thing.
Li Jiancheng, the crown prince who was in charge of the logistics of the First World War in Luoyang, has already planned a new route, which will be launched in the near future.
It's just that the shortest grain route is cut off, and the new grain route takes longer to get the grain to arrive. It used to take just over twenty days to set off from Chang'an, but now it takes at least a month.
But this is always a good thing, and the grain piled up in the granary is enough to feed the tens of thousands of soldiers in the large battalion for a month.
"Xuan Ling, that Dou Jiande's vanguard has entered the Tiger Prison Pass, and I plan to let Xiao Gong deal with those people. ”
Fang Xuanling was thinking about it, and a young man in armor had approached, and when he saw it, it was Li Shimin, the king of Qin.
After Fang Xuanling got up to greet him, he said, "Yes, I think so too." ”
That Dou Jiande's vanguard commander is named Su Lie, and he is also a young and promising genius, at this time he is twenty-nine years old, and he has already built the peak of the foundation realm, and there are even rumors that he has broken through the Jindan realm recently, and I don't know if it's true or not.
And although this person was born in the Ranger family, he has awakened the great power spiritual root of the fourth grade, and his strength cannot be underestimated.
In the face of such a character, it is necessary to have a character who can control him.
After considering it among the generals, the person selected by Fang Xuanling was Li Xiaogong, his Void Spiritual Root was just able to restrain Su Lie's Huge Spiritual Root, and among the generals, his leading talent was not weak.
It can be said that he is the No. 1 player in this operation.
"That's right, let Xiaogong lead five thousand elites to meet that Su Lie!" Li Shimin laughed a few times, and said: "Maybe the indecisive Dou Jiande saw that the vanguard was defeated, and the army that wanted to enter the Tiger Prison Pass would go back to Hebei in a gloomy manner!"
"Yes. Fang Xuanling said in response, and said: "I think this is also an opportunity to train soldiers, so you might as well let those recruits also go out to see the big killing scene." ”
"Otherwise, I will always nest in the granary, and I will be a nest of recruits for another three years!"
"Oh, but they have limited practice, and if they don't do it well, won't they make a mess for Xiaogong?"
"Haha, Your Highness still doesn't trust Xiaogong. ”
"Huh, don't talk nonsense......
"Xiao Gong's immortal talent is obvious, and his ability to lead troops is equally extraordinary, if he leads the troops into battle, even if he gives him five thousand recruits, he can handle it!"
"Moreover, since he came to Luoyang, hasn't he been shouting and shouting to fight, why, isn't it just right this time, and it also satisfies his desire to fight. ”
"Yes, too. ”
............
After experiencing this battle, the recruits had a new understanding of the war, but Fang Xuanling didn't give them much time to recuperate.
From the end, Fang Xuanling only gave two days to clean up the granary and pack up, and finally selected 3,000 recruits who looked in good condition, followed Li Xiaogong's 5,000 elites, and went to Gongxian to fight against Su Lie's army.
And Ye Hong, a guy who had already started killing on the battlefield, was selected by Li Xiaogong at a glance, as for Guo Hu's comrades......
Well, all remained in the granary, and his dream of the battlefield was shattered again.
As the only person under Wang Zhi's command who was about to be sent to the battlefield, Wang Zhi also generously gave this glaive knife to Ye Hong after Ye Hong was targeted by Li Xiaogong, and said it as if he understood the righteousness very well.
However, in fact, this sword is not important to Wang Zhi at all, and it is only because the scabbard is beautiful that it is hung in the camp tent to be admired......
However, Ye Hong was full of slander in his heart, but he still had a few words of gratitude on his lips, after all, he was a leader......
Two days later, Li Xiaogong set off for Gongxian with 8,000 men and horses.
Standing in the middle of the team, Ye Hong complained again, the name Su Lie ......
Well, it's too familiar! In a certain game, this is a very common character, Ye Hong always thought it was a fictional character, but he didn't expect that there was such a general in history!
However, Ye Hong and other recruits in the team inquired about this Su Lie, but the answers they got were varied, what kind of background was a general, what kind of son of a prostitute, and even the identity of an orphan could be revealed......
After several inquiries, Ye Hong knew that his background was really unsearchable...... However, he is not without gains, there is one thing that everyone says, it is the five thousand soldiers and horses led by Su Lie, and they are the most elite Youzhou soldiers in the Hebei soldiers.
Legend has it that these Youzhou soldiers and Guan Long's soldiers are completely different in the way of material selection, Guan Long's soldiers are all good families, and these Youzhou soldiers are all death row prisoners or outlaws, charging into battle fearlessly, Ye Hong listened to what they said, and he didn't know how much was true or how much was false......
However, even though these Youzhou soldiers are extremely powerful, these recruits are not afraid of tigers at all, not only because the newborn calves are not afraid of tigers, but also because none of the five thousand Tang Army elites in front of the array are vegetarians!
In the blink of an eye, a morning had passed.
The marching speed of these elites of the Tang Army was far from being comparable to them, but Li Xiaogong didn't care at all what their three thousand recruits thought, and still kept hurrying according to the marching speed of the elites.
So, the recruits hurried and hurried to finally catch up with them.
At noon, after a morning's journey, the 8,000 Tang Army finally ushered in the first repair.
"Whew. ”
The soldiers began to build a pot to cook, and Ye Hong was finally able to drink a few sips of water to trim himself.
On the way from Chang'an to Luoyang, the march was not fast because of the heavy load, but this time it was different, the marching speed was extremely fast, and in the morning, Ye Hong was barely able to adapt to such a marching rhythm.
But now it's summer, and in the morning, Ye Hong is already sweating like rain, and even his underwear is already wet.
Ye Hong looked at the porridge starting to cook in the pot next to him, and couldn't help swallowing his saliva, he ate too well in his previous life, and he was not used to it when he first came to this world, but after a long time, he also felt that white porridge was a good thing......
Ye Hongzheng was staring at the gruel in the pot while bragging nonsense with the sergeant beside him, and a sound of footsteps suddenly sounded from his side.
"Hey!"
Ye Hongzheng was listening to a sergeant's bragging, and suddenly remembered a loud noise in his ears, which frightened him to the ground, and his eyes glanced in the direction from which the voice came.
It's okay not to look at it, but when he saw it, Ye Hong suddenly trembled!
"Why did you come along? Didn't you learn some practical kung fu from Wang Erxiong?"
