Chapter 51 Cleverness is Mistaken by Cleverness (2nd Update)
Chapter 51 Cleverness is mistaken by cleverness
Chen Ying's dispatch of troops, because the allocated grain and armor were all purchased in other places, and the purpose of not using the Chang'an treasury was actually to hide people's eyes and ears and hide from the world.
Sun Jingchu loaded the soldiers who had not yet been disbanded into the ship and transported them directly from Li Shentong in Zhaozhou, and at the same time, he loaded the grain and grass on the ship in Liyang. In this way, the Chang'an Treasury has completed the transfer of materials without using a grain of grain or a stone of forage.
However, these soldiers from Hebei, not to mention the armor, did not even have a blade, all of them were bare-handed, and these materials needed to be replenished after arriving in Lingzhou.
As for how the military department and the household department settle accounts with Li Daozhen, this is something that Chen Ying doesn't care about, and in Chen Ying's opinion, Li Yuan can't pull his face and take advantage of his niece.
Both personnel and materials quietly stepped on the fleet heading north. After Chen Ying joined Luo Shixin and Zhang Shigui, he arranged for Luo Shixin to be on the left bank and Zhang Shigui to be on the right bank, guarding along the Yellow River. Whether it is the common people or the hawkers who are traders, they are all caught and imprisoned in various counties.
In fact, any information has a certain timeliness. For example, now, Chen Ying needs to fight for time, as long as he arrives in Lingzhou, he is not afraid of the Turks at all, at that time, the most worried is the Turks.
In fact, in ancient times, reconnaissance intelligence relied on calculations in most cases. First of all, the consumption of grain, the sixteen guards stationed near Chang'an, there are rules, and the daily expenditure will not decrease or increase. It only takes a few eyeliners to leave in front of the various warehouses, and you can definitely find signs of the movement of the Tang Dynasty troops. Of course, the movement of thousands of soldiers and horses is not visible, but the movement of more than 50,000 troops, even if it is only a month's amount, is as much as tens of thousands of stones. According to this era, an ordinary cart can transport more than ten stones, and at least hundreds of thousands of carts are needed.
If you want to ask the Turks whether they have worked in Chang'an, this is actually a matter of obvious things on the bald head. However, due to the tensions between the Turks and the Tang Dynasty, the Turks in the city of Chang'an were closely monitored, however, there were loopholes. Because of the open social atmosphere of the Tang Dynasty, especially after the Tang Dynasty occupied Liangzhou, the Silk Road was temporarily opened, and there were many merchants of various ethnic groups in Chang'an City.
Although these people were not Turkic, they spied on the military secrets of the Tang Dynasty for profit. In the Eastern Turkic Khanate, there is a unique organization called "Hayabusa", which is actually a spy organization. The leader is named Ashina Sunishi, who is the half-brother of Qimin Khan and the uncle of Ashina Dubi.
Ashina Suni was fluent in the Chinese language, and if he didn't consider his golden hair and blue-eyed appearance, he couldn't have imagined that he was a Turkic based on his authentic Chinese dialect alone. However, in the eyes of the Tang Dynasty, the difference between the Turks and the Rites was only their hair, so Ashina Suni lost his hair and beard and ran a horse shop in Chang'an under the name of the Lit's merchant Huoba.
In fact, this intelligence point has already been detected by the meticulous work of the left prison gate. The exposure of this intelligence point is mainly because the last time Chen Ying defeated Ashina Yi Bezhen Mo, Shibi Khan Du Jishi and Ye Hu Khan Mo He came to question Li Yuan, at that time, Mo He suddenly changed his words and quickly left Chang'an, which was the news from Ashina Suni's mule and horse shop. However, because there was no interrogation, even Li Yuan did not know that the Turks also had a Yehu Khan in Chang'an City, not an ordinary fine work.
When Li Yuan and Chen Ying implemented a plan to hide from the world, they began to deliver false news to Ashina Suni. This fake is half true, and the Tang Dynasty sent the left and right guards of the East Palace and the left and right Si Yu to secretly transfer to Hedong to prevent the Turks from invading Taiyuan. The news that more than 30,000 elite people secretly went north to the East Palace, with the rate of the left and right guards and the rate of the left and right divisions, and the rate of the left and right divisions of the palace were four and eighteen folding, and a total of more than 30,000 elite people secretly went north. It is also true to claim that Li Shiji is the marshal and leads the army north. The fake news is that the actual commander of this army is not Li Shiji, but Chen Ying.
Ashina Suni is a smart person, he will definitely not believe this news because of the bribed soldier, he needs to judge. When Siwei led more than 30,000 troops to leave Chang'an, after he repeatedly confirmed, it was certain that this was true, and the grain and straw transferred from the treasury also verified the news.
However, as to whether Chen Ying is the commander of this army, Ashina Suni is very concerned. If it's just Li Shiji, the Turks don't have anything to worry about, if it's really Chen Ying, then it's another matter. At this time, Chen Ying had already become the psychological shadow of most of the Turkic people.
The Turks worship shamans, and every time they pray, they silently chant the original Chen Ying Mo Qi sword soldier in their hearts. To put it simply, pray every year, don't beat me, don't beat me......
It's a little ridiculous to say, the reason why such a situation has been formed is because Chen Ying beat the Turks too hard, the Eastern Turks have four major leaves to protect the Khan and the twelve Khans, and nearly half of the people who have suffered losses under Chen Ying's hands, not to mention that there are more than 30,000 Turks working as free laborers under Chen Ying's hands, and more than 20,000 heads, which are still piled up in the wild boar ridge outside Lingzhou City.
If it is said that Datang does not send Chen Ying to fight, it doesn't matter what Li Shiji and Zhang Shiji are, come to kill one by one, and destroy one pair at a time. The Turks are so domineering, but even if Chen Ying leads an army of 30,000 to the north, and the Turkic army of 300,000, I'm afraid half of them will be scared.
Ashina Suni is also very helpless to cause this situation, but now the Eastern Turks are also difficult to ride a tiger, if this time it fails, Ashina Dubi will become the biggest joke among all the Turkic khans.
Now Ashina Suni was sitting in the courtyard, with a knife in his hand, cutting meat on a roasted whole lamb, and below him knelt a yellow-skinned man who looked like a common man shivering.
Ashina Suni sucked on the grease on his fingers and asked, "Have you eaten it?" ”
The people trembled and did not speak, and a vicious guard stepped forward and shouted, "If you don't reply, are you looking for death?" ”
"Eat...... Not...... I didn't eat ......" The people were about to cry and stammered, "Eat...... Still haven't eaten! ”
Ashina Suni picked up a piece of roast mutton with a dagger, handed it to the people, and said, "Do you want to eat it?" ”
"Think...... Want to eat ......! The people swallowed with difficulty.
Ashina Suni's eyes flashed with disdain, and he said lightly: "What I ask, you just need to answer truthfully, answer a question, a piece of meat, if you answer them all, this leg of mutton, not this sheep is all yours!" ”
The people said: "Your nobleman, please ask, Xiaodi must know everything!" ”
Ashina Suni said, "What's your name?" ”
The people said respectfully: "Little bottom Huang San!" ”
Ashina Suni cut off a small piece of meat with a dagger and threw it in front of Huang San, Huang San didn't care that the piece of mutton was stained with soil, he reached out and grabbed the mutton from the ground, and he didn't even have time to clean the dirt on it, and stuffed it into his mouth in one bite.
Ashina Suni asked again, "What do you do?" ”
Huang San stretched his neck, looked at the roasted whole sheep, and showed a longing look: "The small Qujiangfang is for collecting night incense!" ”
Ashina Suni gave Huang San another piece of mutton as promised, and then asked, "What did you eat yesterday?" ”
Huang San ate another piece of sheep, and said without thinking: "Noodles...... Dough ......"
Ashina Suni said, "How much did you eat?" ”
Huang San said with difficulty: "One ...... One......! Still...... And a bowl of soup ......"
Ashina Suni asked suspiciously, "Broth?" ”
Huang Sandao: "It's a dish...... Vegetable soup ...... Dried wild vegetables......"
Ashina Suni muttered to himself: "Eat only one bread at a meal? Are you small enough to eat? No wonder it's so skinny? ”
Huang Sandao: "No...... Not a meal...... It's a day...... One meal a day......"
Ashina Suni said: "Eat one meal a day, and only one cake per meal?" ”
Don't look at Ashina Suni so disorganized, he asked Huang San like a family, and slowly Huang San also let go of his vigilance. While eating mutton, Huang San nodded and said, "Yes...... It's ......"
Ashina Suni asked again, "Have you seen General Chen?" ”
Huang San shook his head and said, "I've seen it." ”
Ashina Suni lost interest and said, "You are a late-night collector, how can you see General Chen?" ”
Huang San shook his head and said: "Don't you know this, General Chen likes to get up in the morning and run around the flower garden, when he gets up in the morning to collect night incense, he often sees General Chen, once I pulled a cart, I almost slipped when I climbed the slope, or General Chen helped me push the car!" ”
Ashina Suni frowned and said: "You don't inquire about nonsense, who is General Chen, how can he help you push the cart, you will definitely not see General Chen." ”
Huang San bumped into Tianqu, and swore that he had just met General Chen a few days ago. Just yesterday, I saw General Chen running in the garden.
Ashina Suni nodded and waved his hand: "Take it down and give him a meal of meat!" ”
The left and right guards took Huang San down.
Ashina Suni sat down on the ground and was speechless for a long time. He suddenly stuck the knife in his hand into the mutton, stared at the man who looked like a bookkeeper opposite, and asked, "What do you think?" ”
The man who looked like Mr. Bookkeeper bowed down and said: "Ye Hu Khan, it seems that Chen Ying'er must still be in Chang'an, so the so-called news that Chen Ying led the elite of the Tang Army north to Taiyuan must be fake!" ”
Ashina Suni shook his head firmly and said, "No, Chen Ying is no longer in Chang'an. ”
The bookkeeper asked puzzledly, "Ye Hu Khan, how is this possible?" Didn't Huang San say that Chen Ying was still exercising? ”
Ashina Suni shook his head lightly, gently put the knife on the case, and said lightly: "There is a famous saying in Huaxia called, virtual and real, real and virtual, Chen Ying looks at Chang'an, I am afraid that it is no longer Chen Ying in Chang'an, if it is not expected to be good, Chen Ying should have gone north with the Tang Army at this time, and he will soon arrive in Jiexiu." ”
Speaking of this, Ashina Suni roared coldly: "Someone, quickly send a secret letter to the Khan, and tell him that Chen Ying is going north!" ”
Ashina Suni was also smart but was mistaken by cleverness, he didn't know at all that Chen Ying didn't go to Taiyuan, and Li Shiji, who was the least optimistic about the Turks, was actually a ruthless character, not easier to deal with than Chen Ying.
When the Turks saw Li Shiji's power, they realized that if Chen Ying was described as a tiger, then Li Shiji was a poisonous snake, and once he bit him, he couldn't eat and walked around.
However, this is only a later promise, so I will not mention it for the time being.
As the saying goes, if you are not afraid of god-like opponents, you are afraid of pig-like teammates.
Ashina Suni lost his wisdom and sent a false piece of information to Jieli Khan, which caused the Turks to lose in Li Tang's diplomatic struggle.
Chen Ying took a boat all the way upstream, and at a speed of two hundred miles a day, he quickly marched towards Lingzhou.
