Chapter 600: The War Returns
Soon, Kim Dayong pulled out a military horse from the camp and ran towards the place where the cadets had fled.
Of course, what this group of pursuing Goguryeo soldiers did not notice was that just as the large army was heading for the dense forest, a few things quietly fell from the horses in the Tang army's ranks.
Those few things are the heavily armed Cheng Huaimo and them.
After several people dismounted, they hurriedly rolled into the deep grass on the side of the road and hid. Soon, they saw Goguryeo's men and horses chasing after them, but the Goguryeo soldiers did not notice that several people were watching them in the grass.
When the sound of horses' hooves gradually faded away, after making sure that there was no one around, Cheng Huaimo made a gesture, and the people of the two battle groups jumped out of the grass and began to quietly touch the camp of Goguryeo.
The task of the other cadets was to send the two battle groups to their designated positions, and the rest of the matter was to keep the Goguryeo soldiers chasing them all the time, disturbing them to the point of disturbance.
When the cadets of the military academy found that the number of soldiers in Goguryeo had increased and they were ready to form an encirclement, the cadets led by them also led the large army in the direction of the Silla fortress.
After the pursuing Goguryeo soldiers found that they could not catch up, they did not dare to continue the pursuit, after all, it was the Silla fortress further on, and the generals led by it were not stupid, and if they chased near the castle, it would be a live target for the archers, so they ordered the pursuit to be stopped.
The reason why I can't catch up is because the war horses of the military academy are carefully selected from the war horses that fight the Turks, and with the scientific horse breeding method given by Zhang Nan to the military academy, the horses ridden by the cadets of the military academy are no worse than the mounts of some generals in the Tang Dynasty. Not to mention the ordinary cavalry of Goguryeo?
"Head, what to do, they seem to have gone back." A cadet sat on his horse and said to the cadet instructor who led them.
"Went back? Can they go back so easily? Wait, I've just roughly remembered the distance, it will take at least two sticks of incense for them to run back to the Goguryeo camp, let's wait until they bring all the horses back to the stable, and everyone has unloaded their armor, and then we will give them a return and harass them again, anyway, they can't catch us, so we will slowly tease them, and it is better to exhaust them. The instructor at the head said with a smile.
So more than 100 cadets waited under the city on horseback, and they didn't enter the city, but waited on the horse to return to the Goguryeo soldiers.
After the Goguryeo cavalry decided not to pursue deeply, they returned to the camp, and Kim Daeyong, who was in charge of the pursuit, went to report to Quangae Suwen on the situation at the front.
"Let's say, how many Tang soldiers were killed and how many people were captured alive."
At this time, Quangai Suwen was still sitting on the bed in armor and a golden sword, and he had not fallen asleep, he had been waiting for news from his troops. When Jin Dayong came back, Quan Gai Suwen couldn't wait to ask.
Jin Dayong heard Quan Gai Suwen ask, his face was also a little embarrassed, but he didn't dare to deceive Quan Gai Suwen, so he said truthfully: "Back to the general's words, the group of Tang troops ran too fast, we kept chasing behind, but we didn't dare to chase too fast, for fear of being ambushed, how do I know that the group of Tang troops was so little people, they ran when they saw us, and ran back to the city all the way, I saw that they all arrived at the city, so they ordered to come back." ”
After listening to Jin Dayong's words, Quangai Suwen also thought about it, he really couldn't figure out what kind of medicine was sold in Comrade Li Er's gourd.
In his opinion, the possibility of Li Shimin harassing like this and not setting up an ambush is less than or equal to zero, but Comrade Li Er really did it, and after thinking about it, Quan Gai Suwen only thought of one possibility.
"Pass my military order, the cavalry is not allowed to rest, ready to go, I estimate that the small group of Tang troops will come back tonight." Quangai Suwen said.
Why is that? General, they are here to harass us, so why should we bother with them? You just need people to take turns patrolling and reporting. Kim Daeyong was puzzled.
"If you don't say you're still too young, who is he, Li Shimin? In the battle of Jinzhou City, he Li Shimin lost at least 40,000 horses, and now Li Shimin can't wait to tear down my bones and drink my blood, can he just harass us? Definitely not, tonight's harassment may not be the only one, he may just wait for us to be harassed impatiently, and then kill a bunch of troops and horses to attack us when we are least prepared, so we have to guard against it. ”
After Quan Gai Suwen finished speaking, Jin Dayong nodded approvingly.
"It's still the general, you think thoughtfully, with the general here, his Li Shimin's strategy will definitely not succeed." Kim Dayong also sent his own sycophants in a timely manner.
Quan Gai Suwen is naturally very useful when he listens, and now he feels that he is not only better than Comrade Li Er in military attainments, but even his IQ Quan Gai Suwen feels that he is superior to Comrade Li Er, so Quan Gai Suwen said with a smile: "Okay, go, arrange it, let the soldiers not sleep too hard at night, and be ready to beware of the sneak attack of the Tang Army at any time." ”
With Quan Gai Suwen's words, Jin Dayong naturally wanted to do it, but Jin Dayong himself felt that Quan Gai Suwen's analysis was very useful, so Jin Dayong took it upon himself to add fifty more sergeants on patrol, after all, there is a lot of strength in numbers, and the chance of being able to find the traces of the Tang Army is greater.
In the middle of the night, there were bursts of horses' hooves outside the barracks, and Jin Dayong, who was waiting for the Tang army to come to the sneak attack in the camp, was about to fall asleep.
After some chase, the cadets of the military academy naturally "returned in vain" and retreated to the city.
After Jin Dayong "repelled" the Tang army again, he thought more and more that the Tang army was definitely like the analysis of Hequan Gai Suwen, waiting for them to sneak attack them when they were the most defenseless.
So this time, Jin Dayong made his own decision again, not only increased the number of patrols, but also ordered 5,000 infantry to lie in ambush a mile outside the camp, waiting for the Tang army to attack the camp again.
But this time, the cadets of the military academy did not appear in their field of vision.
The soldiers who were ambushed outside the camp waited until dawn, and they did not see the Tang army, because the cadets in charge of harassment had already gone back to the city to sleep, because the cadets of the military academy were only one hundred and ten, so after harassing them twice, the instructors in command guessed that Quangai Suwen's side might be ambushed on their way, so after the second attack, the cadets of the military academy went back to the city to sleep.
