Chapter 646: Battle of the Sanggan River (56)
As a result, the tenth formation to which the Baye Department belonged replaced the original fourth formation of the Xi people, crossed the Sanggan River and charged the ambushed Tang army heavy infantry infantry, their combat effectiveness was much stronger than that of the Xi people, and they were all veterans of a hundred battles, which was why Li Huaixiu asked him to take over the fourth formation.
When they arrived at the location, the third formation had already killed a lot of people, but the situation of the Tang army was not much better, after all, they only ambushed thousands of heavy armored infantry, and each one killed was one less, and they did not arrange extra reserves, after all, heavy armor can only make up such a set in an emergency.
Although the Xi Qi coalition army suffered heavy casualties at the beginning, they won because there were many people, and the roads were already covered with a lot of corpses and wounded soldiers, as well as many horses that did not die there and were breathing, which weakened the Tang army's bow and crossbow offensive a lot, because many of the undead third cavalry had begun to use these barriers to block the bow and crossbow, and were slowly advancing. In addition, no matter how strong the bow and crossbow were, there were still a number of them, and they no longer wasted as much as they did at the beginning, but began to slow down their firing speed and began to shoot the cavalry of the Xi Qi coalition one by one efficiently.
Of course, Bai Quan was not idle, he would shoot from time to time, and he was a thousand-commander, when the commander of the third formation was almost dead, someone finally realized that there were sharpshooters in the Tang army sniping their officers, which made the remaining officers instigate a lot, and reduced the actions of the command, for fear that the next person to be shot would be himself, and the news also spread to the next few formations.
When it was passed to Li Huaixiu, he realized that this might be the masters of the Tang Army sniping their officers, and if the officers in the next few formations, including the Baye Division, were shot, then they would probably be defeated, and under anxiety, he could only think of looking for those two, and he would go to see them in person.
When he saw that Li Huaixiu was willing to bow down and ask them to make a move, Ye Tingcheng couldn't help but sigh in his heart that Li Huaixiu's ambition was so great, that he had to admire, and he was willing to grovel to the two Han people they despised the most, which showed that he had great hope for victory in this battle, and it also showed how deep his coveting of the Central Plains was, and Ye Tingcheng could not let him go.
But on the surface, he still had to make a show, he pretended to refuse Li Huaixiu's request, but after Li Huaixiu moved out a number of promises that were extremely beneficial to the Tang Sect, he began to be a little relieved, and finally was finally willing to get rid of this kind of master that might exist in the Tang Army for Li Huaixiu, but he couldn't snipe the Tang Army officers like them.
For Li Huaixiu, this was enough, and when their cavalry entered the Tang army camp, this was what he needed, and other things were not so important compared to this.
The reason why Ye Chengcheng agreed so easily was that of course he knew that it was all done by Bai Quan, and this was also the instruction he gave to Bai Quan before the war, asking him to kill the officers of the Xi Qi coalition army one by one after judging by himself according to the timing.
I saw that he was still lying on his bed leisurely, and Huan Chenyu disappeared in place with a flash, it was up to him to inform Bai Quan to stop it temporarily, and he was not in a hurry to kill the officers of the Xi Qi coalition army, and when their ambush officially began, the three of them would be able to kill, and now was not the time. Li Huaixiu's anxiety was of course also expected by him, as any commander-in-chief, it was impossible for someone to snipe at his officers without being in a hurry, what he wanted was the opportunity for Li Huaixiu to leave alone.
Because he knew that Bayoya's tenth formation had already taken over the fourth formation and rushed to the opposite bank, Ye Chengcheng judged that the time to capture Li Huaixiu alive was at this time.
When Li Huaixiu looked around and found that he couldn't see how Huan Chenyu disappeared at all, he was finally relieved in his heart, the strength of "Zhao Si" should be the second among the Tang Sect disciples in this line, and there should be no problem with him, sure enough, when he was pacing back and forth in this partial tent, the herald finally came the news that the officer in front was never sniped again.
This naturally made Li Huaixiu overjoyed, and praised Ye Tingcheng for his good life, but Ye Tingcheng's answer made him instantly cold from the soles of his feet to his heart.
"Great Chief, don't be too happy, there will be people who will make you anxious later, and don't let him continue to snipe you, in order not to make your subordinates cowardly and stop charging, what I want is that your front troops have entered the other side, so that they can be wiped out. ”
Li Huaixiu broke out in a cold sweat, and he finally realized that there was something wrong with this surnamed Li: "You, who are you? What do you want to do?"
"Who am I?" Ye Tingcheng smiled, tore off the transformation talisman that had been attached to his chest, and suddenly changed into the face of Ye Saburo who he himself used a human skin mask.
"I am Ye Chengcheng. ”
Li Huaixiu was shocked, his right hand suddenly pressed the saber on his waist, and at the same time he was about to open his mouth to shout, but he was suddenly hit the back of the head, and he lost consciousness instantly.
Needless to say, the person who beat him naturally rushed back from the other side of the river, and such a close distance would not take much time for a back and forth between him and a master like Bai Quan.
It's just that the problem that plagues Ye Chengcheng now is how to deal with Li Huaixiu, his Khitan language is basically third-rate, and Huan Chenyu can't learn Li Huaixiu's temperament at all, and he doesn't know his experience and habits at all, maybe he will be exposed, then, only rely on that guy.
He immediately summoned the puppet worm from the spirit beast ring and asked, "Can you temporarily control a person without damaging his mind?"
"Of course you can, after following Master Chenyu to practice for so long, it will be really embarrassing if I don't make any progress, but I can't enter from the inside, but from the outside, you have to prepare a hat for me to block my body." ”
Ye Tingcheng nodded, motioned for Huan Chenyu to pick up a set of leather helmets from Khitan equipment hanging on the shelf on the side, and put them on for him after the puppet worm jumped into Li Huaixiu's thick hair.
In this way, the white and conspicuous body of the puppet insect will naturally not be seen by others.
I saw that Li Huaixiu, who had fallen into a coma, suddenly opened his eyes, jumped up suddenly, and moved his arms, which looked no different from before, but his demeanor and movements did not change, as if Li Huaixiu woke up, this is the effect of the puppet insect directly controlling the brain, rather than occupying the brain to produce a similar effect, so that others will not see Li Huaixiu's abnormality.
