Chapter 993: Expedition
Returning from outside the city of La Liga, the face of Kyushu has been ugly, he can recognize the bloody general armor, he can recognize the two bloody heads, he has been pressing the people of the Western Regions for so many years in the Western Frontier, with him, no one can really threaten the Daning border army, but this time, Gallocke used a perfect deception to make the Daning soldiers suffer heavy losses.
It's not wrong to talk about Kyushu's tactics, and Shen Leng also thought of a place, the West Liga City is sticking here, and then the guards of the Western Xinjiang who came over to support it made a detour to the Houque State to cut off the grain route of the Western Regions Coalition Army, this is the way to play at the bottom of the kettle, it is definitely right, and it is also the best way to play that can be thought of now.
However, this best way to play, Galoclio has also thought of it, he used Lou Ran's millions of rabble, who are worthless and have no combat effectiveness at all, as a trick to surround the entire camp, so that it is impossible to observe the internal movement of the Western Regions army, plus from the beginning, the camp of the Sabbatarians was deliberately built behind the company camp of the Western Regions army, and it is impossible to see the situation of the camp of the Sabbatarians.
"I was negligent."
Tan Kyushu sat at the window, with a touch of sadness in his eyes.
"I sent 100,000 Daning soldiers to Houque, and now they are alone."
Governor Tan Kyushu let out a long breath: "It's me who is too confident and too underestimated." ”
Tan Kyushu's gaze was withdrawn from the window, he glanced at Shen Leng, and then lowered his head again: "It's also that I'm too greedy for merit, I've been fighting horses all my life, leading troops for decades, and I've never been greedy for merit, but I'm greedy for merit when I want to retreat, I've been thinking since the first day the people from the Western Regions came, if I return to Chang'an to see Your Majesty with the merit of defeating the Western Regions Alliance, I can also proudly tell Your Majesty that the ministers have defended the Western Frontier well, and the ministers have also subdued the people of the Western Regions." ”
He let out a long breath again, but he couldn't breathe out the breath that had accumulated in his heart.
"I even thought about how to defeat the people of the Western Regions in front of Your Majesty, how many enemies I killed, how much land I captured, and even thought about how to say every word, how to say every word, and how Your Majesty would praise me."
He reached for the teacup on the table, his hands trembling slightly.
"But I didn't think about it more, I should think about it, and directly ordered the three guards and 100,000 soldiers to enter the rear gate, which is a taboo for the generals, I just stood in my own perspective to consider how to fight this battle, but I didn't think about it from the enemy's point of view, a person who has led the army for many years has made such a low-level mistake, and it is possible to bury the 100,000 army in the wild land of the Western Regions."
His hands trembled more and more: "It's all my fault." ”
Shen Leng shook his head: "I didn't expect it, I also underestimated the rest people, underestimated the people of the Western Regions, for many years, Daning has been invincible, don't say general, I also feel that any enemy is inferior to me, and I can beat the enemy with a casual fight, especially in the face of an enemy like the people of the Western Regions who can't be called an opponent at all, I haven't thought about whether the people of the Western Regions are thinking about how we should fight." ”
After a pause, he continued: "The people of the Western Regions have been fighting us for so many years, and they are already extremely familiar with Daning's tactics, and they know what kind of posture we should put on to make us despise them. ”
"Galoculi is a genius."
Tan Kyushu raised his head: "He did a few things that violated common sense, but it was because of these things that I was completely deceived, first...... As soon as he arrived in the Western Regions, he directly killed the king of Houque, which will inevitably become an enemy with Houque, so I know that what I think is how can the Houque people be willing to ally with the rest of the people again? How could the countries of the Western Regions rest assured that they would join forces with the Sabbatbatarians? At this time, it was roughly speculated that Galocle was going to kill not only the King of Houque, his army came very slowly, and he also said that he had destroyed some small countries in the Western Regions along the way, presumably before he killed the King of Houque, his army of peace had already entered the country of Houque, and Houque was betrayed, and other countries in the Western Regions must have secretly connected with the people of Anxi, and defeated us at the cost of betraying Houque. ”
"Second, after he killed the King of Houque, he immediately took the corpse to the city to show off to me, I only think that he did this is a manifestation of self-righteousness, arrogance, arrogance, and he didn't put the people of the Western Regions in his eyes at all, nor did he take me in his eyes, so that I had the illusion that the Western Regions Alliance was not unbreakable at all, but like a plate of loose sand, which is exactly what the people of the Western Regions wanted to give me this feeling this time and make me despise them."
"Thirdly, when Galocchius came alone, I should have been alarmed, and he provoked me with his words, telling me that he would cut off my head with his own hands, and even though I did not react at the time, how could I not be angry? I overlooked, how can a person who has led the army for many years be so superficial? ”
Tan Kyushu looked at Shen Leng: "The only way now is to get in touch with the army that broke into Houque as soon as possible and bring them back quickly." ”
"I'll go."
Shen Leng stood up: "No one is more suitable than me." ”
"But ......"
Tan Jiuzhou's eyes were full of apology and worry, and his words were not finished, but the words behind the two words were stopped by Shen Leng before they came out.
"I know that there is a shortage of troops now, even the needs to defend the city are stretched, and the general does not have many troops in his hands to give me, even if he gives me tens of thousands of heavy armor, it is useless, because it is impossible for heavy armor to run long distances to rescue our besieged 100,000 army."
Shen Leng asked: "How many light horsemen are there in the city?" ”
Talking about Kyushu Road: "Most of the light cavalry has been transferred to attack Houque, and now there are less than 5,000 light cavalry in the city. ”
"Give me three thousand."
Shen Leng said: "I have hundreds of personal soldiers under my command, and the general will give me another 3,000 light cavalry, and I will go out of the pass from the North Pass of Vietnam." ”
"Shen Leng."
Tan Kyushu looked at Shen Leng: "If you can besiege our 100,000 troops, the army of the rest people is at least three times that of us, and maybe even more, plus the persecuted Houque people, as well as the troops drawn from the countries of the Western Regions, you only bring more than 3,000 light horses, I'm afraid it will be ......."
"At least we'll have to see how it goes."
Shen Leng turned around: "The general only needs to allow me three things. ”
"Say."
"One, I will take people to the treasury to pick things for me to choose, second, I don't bring any of the five thousand cavalry in the city, I only need three thousand war horses, and I will allocate three thousand recruits from the Western Xinjiang arsenal to me, I only need new soldiers, and third, if I can rescue our soldiers, the general authorizes the trapped soldiers and horses to obey my command."
"Good!"
Tan Kyushu stood up: "But I can't give you 3,000 recruits, I'll give you all the 5,000 cavalry in the city." ”
"Nope."
Shen Leng shook his head: "The five thousand cavalry are all veterans, they can defend the city when they get off the horse, far better than the new soldiers of the Western Xinjiang Arsenal, the new soldiers are better for me, if the general is worried that my side is not enough, then give me all the war horses, and give me six thousand war horses, one person and two horses, because I have to hurry." ”
"Okay."
Talking about Kyushu: "Everyone in La Liga City is up to you to choose." ”
"You don't have to be a general, stay in La Liga City."
Shen Leng strode out: "The reinforcements dispatched by the imperial court are expected to arrive in another half a month, and the general will send troops to meet us at the North Pass of Vietnam in a month." ”
He glanced back at Tan Kyushu: "A month." ”
Tan Kyushu nodded: "One month!" ”
Shen Leng returned to his place where he lived, and when he stepped in, all the soldiers in the courtyard stood up, they had followed Shen Leng for a long time, and the moment Shen Leng entered the door, they could see that there was going to be a big battle, and the general's face was very solemn, which was a sign before the big war.
"Chen Ran, you send a hundred people to the barracks, select three thousand people to come out, if you can run a long distance, you know what kind of soldiers you should choose, only from the recruits in the Western Xinjiang arsenal."
"Yes!"
Chen Ran didn't ask what he was going to do at all, nor did he ask where to fight, he just needed to do what Shen Leng told him to do.
"After the people are picked out, take them to the treasury to choose weapons and armor, don't want iron armor, iron armor is too heavy, everyone only needs leather armor, and everyone should bring at least ten days of dry food, so try to minimize unnecessary equipment, empty the arsenal, and also select a black line knife for everyone, and then select a short knife for everyone."
Shen Leng said as he walked: "No iron javelins, two crossbows per person, crossbow boxes for three people, everyone must bring another bow, the quiver pot is full, and there is no change of clothes and quilts." ”
Chen Ran nodded: "Remember." ”
"Then go and bring back all the war horses in La Liga City, one person and two horses, come and tell me when they are ready."
Chen Ran turned around: "Let's go." ”
Shen Leng returned to the room, walked to the big bronze mirror, he took off his robe, turned his back to the bronze mirror, tried his best to look back at himself in the mirror, and tore off the gauze on his back with his backhand and threw it aside.
The scar on his neck looked a little hideous, and Shen Leng moved for a moment and took a deep breath.
He took off all the clothes on his body, put on a new short suit, not wearing a long shirt, and then opened the big box that Chen Ran had brought over, and in the box was his set of black and faint dark iron armor.
The soldiers left outside the door strode in and helped Shen Leng put on the black armor, Shen Leng moved, raised his right hand and scratched his breastplate, a string of sparks, leaving a shallow mark on the breastplate.
"Man, we're on our way."
He was talking to the armor.
The black line knife was inserted back into the knife holder behind the black armor of Xuantie, Shen Leng strode out of the room, and outside the door, the general Tan Jiuzhou was standing there, holding a horse in his hand: "This is my war horse, your mount didn't bring it, ride mine." ”
Shen Leng did not refuse, this is a pure white high war horse, not inferior to the big black horse that Shen Leng gave to Meng Changan, the war horse is majestic, it is the most difficult to domesticate the male horse, the grassland people call this kind of horse a horse.
Tan Kyushu stretched out his hand to help Shen Leng get on the horse, Shen sneered and said: "General, don't worry, my life is very hard, but it is the yellow sand of the Western Regions, not as deep as the sea, the sea can't bury me, and the yellow sand can't." ”
After saying that, he rode out.
An hour later, the school field, 3,000 recruits were already on the ground.
Shen Leng rode to the front of the team, riding a big white horse and running back and forth in front of the formation, Shen Leng's personal soldiers were at the front of the team, looking at their general, waiting for the general's military order.
"Do you know why I ordered everyone to be forbidden to carry anything but necessary equipment? You are not allowed to bring even an extra set of clothes, nor are you allowed to bring long weapons, because I am afraid that your horses will be tired. ”
Shen Leng stretched out his hand and pointed in the northwest direction: "Because when you return, everyone's war horse will be full of the enemy's heads!" ”
He turned his horse around: "Go on the march!" ”
"Whew!"
"Whew!"
"Whew!"
......
......
