Chapter 5: A sense of foreboding

Previous Chapter

This Tang soldier looked no different from ordinary people, except that his clothes were torn and ragged by the Tubo people, his head hung down, and the corners of his mouth were covered with blood.

There are also multiple bruises and damages on his body and face, and he looks extremely embarrassed.

Yu Bo settled down, and didn't take a closer look at the appearance of this Tang man, he first subconsciously recited the Buddha's name in his heart, and then became alert: I kill him, just like killing a chicken or a dog, don't think about it, go down with a knife, and end his pain.

Meditation on the Abundant Buddha in my heart.

Yu Bo raised the knife in his hand.

At this moment, Tang Bing, who lowered his head, suddenly raised his head, his face was covered with blood, and his eyes were black and faint, as if they were burning with flames.

In this case, the man actually smiled.

smiled and showed a mouthful of white teeth, spewed out a mouthful of blood mist towards Yu Bolun, and shouted as if he had used all his strength: "Remember that I am the third regiment of the Tang Pioneer Army, the seventh group of the second team, grandpa, my name is Hei Qilang!" Hahahaha~"

The deafening laughter made the faces of the two celebrities who were holding him change color.

I felt that the black and strong Tang soldier in his hand was struggling hard, and he could hardly restrain him.

Burst!

The knife in Yu Bolun's hand was handed forward and slammed into Hei Qilang's heart.

Everything is at a standstill.

After a while, the light in Kuroshichiro's eyes gradually dimmed.

As soon as the soldier who grabbed him let go of his hand, his corpse fell down like a stake with a "thump".

Another Tang soldier on the side suddenly let out a whimpering and sad sound.

Like a wounded beast.

"Shichiro, Shichiro! I'm sorry for you, if it weren't for me, you wouldn't have been arrested, I'm ......"

"Kill him!"

On Qinling broke off with a drink.

The knife in Yu Bo's hand was raised as if it were a machine, and it stabbed into Gao Saburo's neck.

Puff~

The hot blood in his neck spurted up several feet.

The blood was poured all over Yu Bolun's face, and it looked red and sticky, like a monster crawling out of a pool of blood.

Yu Bo wiped a handful of blood from his face, snorting and panting, his eyes shining fiercely.

He strode forward, grabbed the hair bun of the third Tang soldier, and stabbed him in the neck, but was stopped by Lun Qinling: "Enough." ”

On Qinling walked up, stretched out his hand and patted Yu Bo Lun's cheek: "Brother, you finally have the look of our Tubo warrior now." ”

"This man ......"

"This person is one of the more important figures in the Tang Army's scouts, keep him, and I'm still useful."

On Qinling smiled slightly, took out his own metal ghost face from his arms, gently put it on Yu Bo Lun's face, looked left and right for a moment, and said happily: "It is worthy of the bloodline of the Gar family, you wear this mask, and you are much more majestic." ”

After speaking, he ignored the blood on Bo Yan's body, grabbed his shoulder and neck, hugged him affectionately into his arms, pointed to the third Tang soldier prisoner and said: "This person is the former head of the vanguard of the Tang Army, Su Dawei's subordinate scout, a more important role, you say, how about we exchange him for Zanpo?" ”

"Really? Can I get it back? Yu Bo asked in surprise.

"It depends on how important this person is to Su Dawei, right, Zhao, Hu, and Er?"

……

The southern foot of Dafei Sichuan.

It was the third day of entering the mountain, and the road was difficult to walk, so 3,000 people dragged their horses along the mountain road, and they had to carry several days' rations and weapons and baggage.

It is necessary to overcome the thinner air of the mountains and the difficult snow on the summits.

The road was difficult.

"Ami, in half a day, we should be able to get out of Dafeichuan."

Xue Rengui led the war horse rope and came to Su Dawei's side along the winding mountain road: "There is no danger ahead." ”

Su Dawei looked into the distance, and then looked at the rear army.

Everything works fine.

But for some reason, there seems to be something hanging in my heart, and it is difficult to be at peace.

"What's wrong? What's wrong? ”

Xue Rengui saw that Su Dawei was a little distracted, so he couldn't help asking.

"It's okay, I just think it's a little too smooth."

"The climb over the mountains and mountains is quite smooth?"

Xue Rengui didn't know why, shook his head with a smile and said, "If you are on flat ground, you will be able to ride a horse for more than one day." ”

After several days of high-intensity marching, even he, the vanguard general, had a dark and thin face, and only a pair of eyes were still bright.

The soldiers below were even more tired.

I don't know how Xue Rengui led the 50,000 Tang troops to climb over Dafeichuan, left more than 30,000 people to guard the baggage, and personally led 15,000 horsemen to rush to the horse farm of the Tubo people.

That situation must be more difficult than it is now.

Su Dawei retracted his thoughts, and heard An Wensheng, who had just led the horse over, whispered: "It may be faster to take a detour from the bottom of the mountain, but there is no water supply, and it is easier to be exposed to the eyes of the Tubo people. ”

Xue Rengui patted the horse's neck: "I also know, it's just a momentary feeling." ”

After speaking, he turned his head and looked around: "What about Guo to be sealed?" ”

"He's still watching the back team from behind, and his team is in charge of the baggage, not so fast."

"Oh."

Xue Rengui nodded thoughtfully.

"What's wrong?"

"It's nothing, I just think that General Guo Xiao seems to have some prejudices against me."

Su Dawei's heart moved, and Xue Rengui was not confused.

There are many reasons for the defeat of Dafeichuan in the Tang Dynasty in history, but one of the most noteworthy is the discord among the generals.

Xue Rengui, who was responsible for leading the main force to attack, and Guo Beifeng, who was responsible for guarding the baggage, not only did not play a decent cooperation, but instead pulled each other's legs, so that they were seized by the Qinling and defeated the main force of the Tang army in one fell swoop, resulting in the defeat of Dafeichuan.

This time, Su Dawei led more than 3,000 elites over the mountains and mountains to carry out the task of attacking some cities in Tubo from afar, and originally did not want to put Xue Rengui and Guo Beifeng together.

But there is such a coincidence.

On the ferocity of the cavalry impact.

On the front line of Hexi, outside the Su Dingfang, Xue Rengui was in charge.

Su Dingfang's body, if he could get on, the general manager would have already lifted the horse lance himself, and it would not be Su Dawei's turn to take this task.

Xue Rengui is the vanguard, and Su Dawei is the commander of the Chinese army.

Who is responsible for the baggage and logistics?

Counting the generals who could be transferred at that time, no one could get out of Guo to be crowned on his right.

People are the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, Li Zhi personally planned to try the people, among the nine hundred people, only Guo Zhifeng and Zhang Jiuling and other five people are on top, and the Zhaohong Museum is the only one to be enshrined.

And Guo Zhifeng also had experience in the army before.

When he served in Hexi, he was appreciated by Pei Xingjian and promoted to General Zuobao Taowei.

There are still people whose father is the famous Tang Dynasty general Guo Xiaoke.

If you want academic qualifications, resumes, backgrounds, and gilding, all of them are so beautiful that they don't look like words, what reason is there to refuse to let Guo Zhifeng join the army?

Su Dawei couldn't think of it.

Along the way, more than 3,000 people ate horse chewing, warm clothes, including drugs such as rhodiola to resist altitude sickness, Guo Beifeng arranged all of them clearly, and the score was exactly right.

It can be said that Guo Beifeng's performance is worthy of his identity.

Except for arrogance.

Some people's arrogance is written on their faces, and some people hide it in their hearts.

But there are still people who are arrogant in their bones.

There are only three middle-level and high-level generals in this army, including Su Dawei, Guo Beifeng, and Xue Rengui, and they barely add An Wensheng, who belongs to Su Dawei's senior staff.

Su Dawei is the "elder brother" of the military queen of the dynasty, which everyone knows.

There is also Su Dingfang, a famous general of the Tang Dynasty, as a teacher.

There are a group of military bigwigs such as Li Tao and Xiao Siye, Cheng Zhijie, and Wei Chijia.

When today's son directly ordered Su Dawei to enter the prince's mansion, the right deputy guard of the guard.

Guo Xiaoke, who was born in the second generation of officials, naturally saw these political implications clearly.

For Su Dawei, he can only be obedient.

As for An Wensheng, first of all, Su Dawei's people, and secondly, An Jia is also a gate lord noble.

Guo Zhifeng didn't have much to say.

But when it comes to Xue Rengui, Guo Zhifeng is different.

The kind of superiority that emanates from the bones, the superiority of the gate valve aristocracy to the cold door, and the disdain hidden in the depths, even if they try their best to restrain themselves, they will be revealed from time to time.

Although Xue Rengui is simple and straightforward, he is not a fool, and he is faintly aware of it.

An invisible rift of alienation spreads between the vanguard Xue Rengui and the logistics general Guo Beifeng.

"Old Xue, don't care about these details."

Su Dawei patted Xue Rengui on the shoulder: "We don't want to say whether our soldiers and horses can complete the task for the time being, but the moment we leave Dafeichuan, it means that we are exposed to danger, and we must not be guarded against." ”

These words immediately made Xue Rengui vigilant: "I'll go to the front team, check again, and send more scouts." ”

"The strikers and scouts are up to you."

Su Dawei suddenly said: "By the way, did anyone in the scout camp not come back last night?" ”

"Oh, Zhao Hu'er and their team, but the scouts are far away, and some of them will get lost in this mountain, so it's normal to be late for a day and a half."

"Hmm......"

Su Dawei pursed his lips and turned over on the back of the dragon: "I'll go to the front team with you to have a look, and then walk for half an hour, let the whole army stop and rest, prepare for lunch, and then go down the mountain before dark to find a suitable place to camp." ”

"Whoa."

Night falls.

In the howling wind, the 3,000-strong team led by Su Dawei set up camp at the foot of the southern foot of Dafei River, which was backed by mountains and rivers.

Proper arrangements were made for night patrols and sentry posts.

In front of the camp, there are more antlers, ravines, and fences.

There are also patrols, constantly patrolling back and forth.

In the camp, the Chinese army was in the big tent, and Su Dawei summoned Xue Rengui, An Wensheng and Guo Beifeng, as well as three lieutenants to discuss in the tent.

"The other teams in the scout camp have returned, but Zhao Hu'er's team has not returned for a long time."

Xue Rengui pressed his knees with both hands, raised a pair of thick eyebrows, and said calmly: "There is something wrong with this." ”

"The worst plan is that it may fall into the hands of the Tibetans." An Wensheng squinted his eyes, and a pair of slender phoenix eyes looked like a kind and lazy orange cat on his white skin.

"Probably not."

Guo Zhifeng pointed to the map and said, "How can there be Tubo people in this mountain?" Even if they encounter a Tibetan, someone from the scout should be summoned back. ”

As he spoke, he raised his eyes and looked at Su Dawei's face, and said with a smile: "I heard that Zhao Hu'er has always followed the former manager, and he is quite effective. ”

"Well, he's a veteran."

Su Dawei pressed the map with his hand and recalled: "In the past, I and Ashina Daozhen and they conquered the Western Turks, when Cheng Zhijie was the chief administrator, and Xing Guogong was the former governor, just like my position today. Zhao Hu'er is a Turkic naturalized general under Ashina Daozhen, and he is very good at tracking and quite capable. ”
