Chapter 1044 Chess Meets Opponents
Today, he does what he can.
Regardless of whether the wolf rider wins or loses on the battlefield, he has a clear conscience.
On that day, Yeluqing led a delegation of 100 people, with gold, silver, jewelry, and beautiful singers, to the west.
Attila and Movol, each marching south from the Pine Desert with 80,000 wolf horsemen, stationed troops in two well-watered, higher terrain areas.
Relying on each other's topography and forming horns for each other.
Advance can be attacked, retreat can be defended!
Yelu Jinshan led 30,000 wolf horsemen, like ghosts and ghosts, secretly marched, and sent many scouts to various places to reconnoitre, taking the initiative to find fighters.
Yelu Purong led the 100,000 elites of the Liwang Department of Yougu to march non-stop to the Bohai region, in case King Zhao suddenly sent an army to kill.
Several wolves rode out, and the Khitan tribes learned that the Tang army was coming, and in an instant, the wind was full of soldiers.
Within half a day, tribal leaders came to Songmo from all over the country one after another to ask Yeluyao for advice, and some leaders learned that Yeluyao wanted to fight to the death with the Tang army, and they all advised them to plan for the long term, but they did not get out of the sweat tent alive.
On this day, Murong Xiu followed Yelu Yao's secret order and led the wolf rider to kill seven or eight small tribe leaders in the sweat tent.
The iron-blooded killing forcibly curbed the atmosphere of surrender to the Tang army in the Khitan, at least on the surface, no tribal leader dared to mention surrendering to the Tang army.
Everyone was panicked, and in accordance with Yelu Yao's Khan order, he gathered soldiers in his tribe to form a strong army to prepare for the defeat of the wolf cavalry in the future.
Youzhou North, Pinglu East!
Zhang Xuanheng, Guo Xiaocai, and Luo Shishang led the elite soldiers to form an iron triangle with Zhang Xuanheng's department as the core, and the armies were each other's horns, forming a defense against each other, and slowly approaching the pine desert area.
Before leading the troops from Chang'an, Yang Yue specially told the three of them not to rush forward, not to underestimate the enemy, and to fight steadily and steadily.
They all have rich combat experience, except for Zhang Xuanheng, who did not participate in the operation to annihilate the Turks, Luo Shishang and Guo Xiaocai are all the main forces that led the army to conquer the Turks.
They knew very well that the Turks were strong and united in the Argus era, and even though the Tang army had won many great victories in the war, it was still very difficult to completely eliminate the Turks.
Fortunately, God blessed the Tang Dynasty, Yan marched, and Wen Boyan assassinated Agus, so far, laying a hidden danger for the demise of the Turks.
Yiran inherited the throne of Khan and inherited the iron cavalry of the royal court of Agus, but he could not change the situation of the Turkic generals who were separated from Germany and the generals were not in harmony.
As a result, the Qin army was defeated one by one in the battlefield, and finally completely eliminated the Turks.
The Khitan is different, and the Turks, whose territory is not necessary, have secretly expanded their armies in recent years, hoarded money and grain, and have long been prepared for sudden wars.
The most important thing is that Yelu Yao has just passed the age of confusion, and his position in the Khitan is very stable, and he has used strong means to eradicate dissidents, so that the Khitan has formed an iron plate.
All the generals, the leaders of the small tribes, looked at Yelu Yao's horse one after another.
Therefore, Luo Shishang and Guo Xiaoqi know very well that the crusade against the Khitan must be difficult.
Zhang Xuanheng.
When Yang Yue was in Youzhou, he followed the other party, and together with Yan Yuefeng, Lin Kaiyue, and Wei Jiyan, he led the army to gallop through Youzhou, causing a big blow to the Khitan.
He.
Among the three, they know the Khitan the most and Yeluyao the best.
knew that the Khitan was weak, but he resisted stubbornly.
This point, from the fact that Yelu Puhua dared to assassinate Yang Yue in the palace, can prove the attitude of the Khitans towards war.
After the army arrived in Youzhou, Zhang Xuanheng instructed the three armies to slow down their advance and send more spies deep into the grasslands and deserts to explore the movements of the Khitan armies.
Avoid the army from galloping and straying into the trap set by the Khitan wolf horse.
At dusk, the spies who went to the north returned one after another, explaining to Zhang Xuanheng the movements of the Khitan armies.
"General Zhang, Ye Luyao simply doesn't know whether he is alive or dead, the Tang army has not yet arrived in Songmo, he dares to send more than 100,000 wolf horsemen south!"
In the military tent, Guo Xiaoqi learned that Attila and Movol led the army into Youzhou, coming in the direction of the Tang army, with a hideous face and a cold attitude.
Zhang Xuanheng knew that Guo Xiaoqi had established great feats when he eliminated Yiran.
Listening to his words at this time, he said with a serious expression: "General Guo, you can't despise Yeluyao, let alone Attila and Movol." In that year, when the emperor led his army to Dandong, he was blocked by Attila's army and defeated by the emperor and General Wei.
However, the Khitan wolf rider was trained by Attila according to the standards of the Turkic royal court iron cavalry, and he has been trained for many years and has rich combat experience, so he should be stronger in battle.
Movol, this thief is against the Tang army everywhere, when the emperor is in Youzhou, he once led the army to approach, was hit hard by General Yan's army, the emperor traveled to Dandong, he led the army to invade, and the emperor hit its main force hard, it is rumored that in recent years, in the Khitan hard training elite soldiers, always ready for revenge!
Yelu Yao sent them to lead his army south, apparently taking us very seriously. If the enemy is careless, he may be defeated before he succeeds. ”
"That's right, when I was in Jinyang, I once heard that Attila was a Turkic tiger general, and then somehow he was suspected by Agus, so he led his troops to defect to the Khitan. Over the years, he has tried his best to help Yelu Yao train his troops, this person is by no means simple! Luo Shishang agreed.
Movol, Luo Shishang has never heard of it.
However, according to what Zhang Xuanheng said, since the other party had dared to lead the army to harass the emperor many times, it means that he is not an idle person, not to mention, the other party came with a heart of revenge, and he must find ways to annihilate the Tang army.
Hearing the sound, Guo Xiaoqi bowed silently.
The emperor appointed him to lead an army to conquer the Khitan, and he knew the importance of this battle to the Tang Dynasty.
When he thought about it for a while, Guo Xiao rode and said: "General Zhang, General Luo, the wolf rider is coming, no matter how powerful they are, a certain person still suggests that he try to find a good opportunity, kill them tens of thousands of people first, and then beat Yelu Yao, and then think about it in the long run!" ”
No matter how the situation changes in the future, the Tang army is still in an advantageous position.
"No!"
"You have to wait and see what happens, and then make plans!"
Zhang Xuanheng raised his hand to veto Guo Xiaoqi's suggestion, and said with a solemn expression: "There are not only Attila and Movol in Khitan, but also Murong Xiu, Yelu Purong, and among several princes, there are also brave and good fighters. The Tang army was coming violently, and it was impossible for Yelu Yao to simply send Attila and Movol to lead the army to defend.
The army waited for two days, and the spies who went to Songmo returned, and after thoroughly grasping Yelu Yao's intentions, they then led the army to attack the royal court. ”
Zhang Xuanheng knows Yeluyao too well, in the gap between the Turks and the Tang Dynasty, the other party not only ensures that the Khitan will not be embezzled, but also leads the Khitan to become stronger and stronger.
This person is by no means an ordinary opponent.
If it is not able to know oneself and the other and take the risk of advancing, the Tang army will face great danger.
"This..."
Guo Xiaoqi did not agree with Zhang Xuanheng's steady plan, and asked: "This place is extremely close to the pine desert, we can't kill it quickly, if Yeluyao has a chance to prepare, how to deal with the wolf cavalry's secret attack on the camp?" ”
