Chapter 1009. shock
cpa300_4(); "It's about to go into battle, your idea, what else are you going to do?"
Through the faint moonlight, I could see clearly that the face with a slightly pointed chin, which was as familiar as a little cream student, Song Jing, who had been depressed for a day, really asked with some displeasure. (Remember the latest chapters of this site for free reading)
"I have something to tell you!"
With a gloomy face like a vampire in Western legends, Yao Chong's attitude was still very resolute, seeing him like this, he looked back at the stunned Cui Parker and the Tianzhu people, hesitated, Song Jing still turned around and commanded in a dull manner: "You go outside to gather the brothers first, I have something to discuss with Yao Duwei, and I will be there in a while."
"Whoa."
With a promise, several officers came out of the tower one after another, looking back at Yao Chong, who had almost completely hidden himself in the dark shadow, Song Jing asked a little impatiently: "It's been a whole day since you were wrong, we are brothers, what's the matter, let's talk about it!"
The word brother seemed to prick Yao Chong's nerves, his cheeks twitched, his breathing was a little short, and a second or two later, Yao Chong slammed his fist on the rough log door frame.
"I'm going to compete with you!"
"At the beginning, I was not optimistic about the official position of this commander of the folded Chong, I wanted to be with you, but you forcibly pushed it to me, but now, you have a dislike with me because of this matter, are you still the open-minded Yao Yuanzhi I know?"
These words made Song Jing a little annoyed, and he roared in a dull voice: "If you want this official position, after this battle, I, Song Jing, will immediately resign from the imperial court and let you go, you are satisfied!"
"It has nothing to do with the official position, it is Li Ming who I want to compete for!"
"Brother Li?"
Song Jing, who really heard this, was stupid, watching Yao Chong's wet and sweaty cheeks flow nervously, and paused for a few seconds before he asked in shock: "We are all brothers, what is there to compete?"
"Brother Li, hehe, hahaha, you are really an afterthought!" Actually shook his head mockingly, Yao Chongfang stared at Song Jing again and said in a low voice: "Li Ming is a woman, it is more appropriate to be the lord of the court, or a princess......"
"She told us personally that her real name is Li Chenxi! There are so many kings of Fujian, the huge Min, can make Xue Li's sons so concerned, and even disregard military discipline, and ask our entire Confucian soldiers to send each other, only the county lord of the king of Min is so important, and among the children of His Majesty the King of Min, only the county lord of Chang County, the right servant of Fengge, and the county lord from Princess Wu have the title of Chenxi, do you understand? ”
"I like her too, and I want this opportunity too!"
Yao Chong gritted his teeth and put his head in front of Song Jing, and said fiercely, his eyes seemed to be faintly red. After some words, Song Jing, who listened to it, took half a step back in astonishment and shook his head in disbelief.
"Brother Li is actually a woman!"
For a long quarter of an hour, no one knew what kind of duel agreement the two had finally made, anyway, when they came out, Song Jing's face sank into the rain, but Yao Chong had a feeling of happiness.
"So slow, I've been waiting for you for a long time!"
Because of the unexpectedly large number of Takuisi, it was temporarily decided to send fifty soldiers from Xinhe Fort to follow, leading the horse in front of a phalanx composed of a large number of torches impatiently around I don't know how many, as soon as he saw the two, Li Ming immediately complained and greeted him.
Who knows, the eyes were very unexpectedly unfamiliar at her, Song Jing spared the past without saying a word, and collapsed on the war horse, but Yao Chong was very concerned and approached the stunned Li Ming and commanded.
"Raid the Takuisi tribe in a while, be sure to follow me!"
nodded inexplicably, and followed by the two who became strange, Li Ming also turned over and got on the horse.
The shallow flow of the Shatt al-Arab reflected the bright moonlight, which could be regarded as adding a little brightness to this absolutely dark night, and before crossing the river, looking at the fire that could be faintly seen on the opposite bank, Song Jing turned his head in a low voice.
"Brothers, I won't say anything about killing the enemy and reporting the country, the imperial court is fighting against the Monan Bedouin barbarians, and we will be stationed in this ghost place within a few years, if we don't want to be beaten by these desert barbarians, for our own sake, we must kill him tonight."
A sentence for himself is quite sincere, a large group of government soldiers roared, it can be regarded as the completion of the oath, the effect is a little better than the long speech, when crossing the river, more than 100 Confucian soldiers, each holding the hand of their colleagues, are a little firmer.
The tribe of the Takuisi clan is stationed in a dry valley about two or three miles from the Shatt al-Arab, and it is said that it is a clan, but it has recently gathered the members of other broken tribal families who have been beaten out by Xenne on the east bank of the Shatt, and this clan has swelled a lot, and there are bonfires everywhere, and tents are brightly lit, and I don't know how many people there are.
However, prostrate outside the valley, more than a hundred Confucian soldiers did not look too nervous, and there is an idiom in China that profoundly describes this kind of scene.
The rabble!
The frightened and undigested warriors of other tribes will not have any combat effectiveness, the most are the old and the young, they still attack at night, and the smaller the number, the more dominant they are.
However, looking through the binoculars, the faces of Yao Chong and Song Jing were full of doubts.
"What are these barbarians doing, they don't sleep at this time, isn't this against us?" Dropping down the binoculars, Li Ming complained angrily, thinking about it all over his stomach, this sentence still made Yao Chong and Song Jing laugh.
Oppose? Aren't they specifically against Da Min?
However, the reaction of the Arab tribes was indeed very unusual, on weekdays, the nomadic tribes lacked fuel, and would never light the bonfires so late, and large numbers of Takuisi gathered in the southeast corner of the tribe, busy slaughtering livestock.
The white turbaned imam was busy and dizzy, and the long prayer that was originally needed to slaughter the animals was reduced to one sentence, and the same thing was tapped on the heads of the camels and sheep, and then the next position was taken, and then the nomadic tribe carried a scimitar and skillfully wiped the throat of the big animal, and several tribesmen took it, and the huge camel was put to the ground and bled out.
I don't know how many animals they have slaughtered, the internal organs on the side have been piled up in the water, and there is a kind of autumn wind in the air that cannot be blown away, and it makes people vomit evilly.
"It's not Eid al-Adha today, are these Arabs crazy?" Looking at it, Song Jing was really confused by concern.
"Maybe these Arabs are also ready to store winter grain like the Turks?" This time, Yao Chong was not as curious as he was on weekdays, and after muttering a word, he said hurriedly.
"But this is also a fighter plane, the cattle of the Takuisi are gathered in the southeast corner, the slaughter will definitely make these cattle uneasy, when the time comes, we will divide a team of men and horses to drive the livestock with torches, these Bedouins must not be able to take care of it, after the livestock rush them, another team will take advantage of the chaos to kill from the northwest, and light a fire in the camp, in the panic, I can't tell how many of us are, the Bedouin Hu will definitely retreat!"
It is worthy of Yao Chong, the tactics of the night in a short period of time have been thought out by him, and Cui Parker who listened to it also nodded in agreement, but after listening to it for a while, Li Ming asked a question again.
"Who's going to drive the animals? Who is going to storm the Bedouin Hu? ”
The few people who asked this question froze.
They are all very dangerous, but it is even more dangerous to kill them and set them on fire, on the one hand, they have to face the panicked Arabs, and on the other hand, they have to face the rushing cattle, and they are likely to die inside.
I was stuck in my throat when I was about to blurt out, Yao Chong wanted to take this task happily, but the words were stuck in his throat, and he just couldn't say it for a while.
"I'll come, Li, Brother Li, you follow Brother Yao to drive the livestock, I'll take people around the valley, let's raise a fire."
Finally, a second before Yao Chong defeated him, Song Jing naturally settled down.
"No, it's not fun to drive the livestock, I'm going to go and set the fire with me." Lord Li, who was afraid that the world would not be chaotic, expressed his opposition on the spot, and Song Jing's bull's eyes immediately widened when he heard it, but unfortunately Li Ming's eyes were bigger than him, and after all, Song Duwei had to compromise.
Seeing that Song Chuhe and his party of more than 100 people began to move to the northwest in the dark, Li Ming's slender figure followed closely behind, opening his mouth, as if he wanted to save something, in the end, Yao Chong still swallowed his words back, but he couldn't help but sigh.
The cattle were also nervous, and the treasures of the Confucian soldiers, the earthen repeating pistols, were carefully set up, and a dozen soldiers were busy hanging their guns and bullets, while the rest of the people were repeatedly soaking torches in the oil for a while to drive camels, sheep and horses.
Absent-mindedly, Yao Chong was lying on the front alone, looking at the dark night boringly, as if he could see through the darkness where Song Jing and the others had crawled.
"Hey, I lost at the beginning, and I really lost unjustly."
Occasionally, the little white face laughed at himself boringly.
"Captain!"
Behind him, the brigade leader who was fiddling with the repeating gun suddenly touched it in a hurried tone, and Yao Chong, who was listening, turned over lazily and asked boringly, "Ready?" Then send a signal to Lord Commander Zhichong, let's do it. ”
"No, my lord, there is a situation in the northwest!"
These words brought Yao Chong back to his senses, and he didn't raise the telescope in the northwest direction with much enthusiasm.
The next second, his eyes were straight.
The place where the Takuisi people camped was a dry ancient river channel, and the banks of the river above the surface served as a protection from the wind, but in just a few minutes, the dry river channel in the distance seemed to be filled up, not water, but light.
The small dots of light like fireflies from far to near look slow, but in fact they move quite fast towards themselves.
Rich doubts surfaced on Yao Chong's sharp and handsome little white face, and after a few heavy glances, his body began to tremble violently uncontrollably.
He saw clearly, it was a torch.
There are countless dense torches all over the river, and how many torches there are are as many people as there are!! The Tang Expeditionary Force
