"Who said you have to go back now!?" Hearing Wang Tong's words, Liwei Kainu didn't react, and then his face turned pale, and he didn't care about any respect and etiquette, and stammered forward and said: "Lord Wang, you can't delay your work outside for too long, my little young master has been outside the mouth for so long, and my family's old one one r
Before he finished speaking, Li Tao kicked his ass hard behind him, kicked the person forward a few steps, glared at his eyes and whispered: "Get out of the way, the master's face is all thrown here by you." β
Li Wei cried and was about to say something, but when he saw Li Tao's fierce appearance as if he was eating people, he didn't dare to say more, and quickly flashed to the side, Li Tao walked into the crowd, feeling that he couldn't raise his head, Wang Tong and the Tan family will be his elder bosses, the martial arts boys, and the hundreds of battalion officials are his peers, but he can be made by the timid and cowardly appearance of his own family as if he is a rich young master who can't see the wind and rain, and the army is the most shameful for such people.
Thinking about the time when his family was in the Huwei Martial Arts Hall, he had beaten Emperor Wanli for this gathering, and now he is thought like this, and he really can't raise his head. Wang Tong shook his head, signaled everyone to stop laughing, stepped forward to pat Li Tao's shoulder, and said:
"There is a shortage of people in Tianjin Wei, I hope you go to Tianjin Wei to help me, you are favored by thousands of people here in Xuanfu, everything is going well, I thought this was a good thing, but when I came to Xuanfu to see, I am afraid that this will delay you, go back with me, you can become a talent over there, and you will have a future under me."
This is true, Li Tao originally had the intention of returning to Tianjin Wei, and when he heard Wang Tong's statement, he was even more moved, and he also strengthened his determination to go back, nodded heavily at the moment, and said: "Brother Wang, I will go back to Tianjin Wei with you." Wang Tong smiled approvingly, and ordered: "After cleaning the battlefield, the car battalion will be closed, and all the battalion officers and hundreds of households will come to the official's side!" "People have to eat grain, horses have to eat grass, people and horses have to sleep, and they don't walk twenty miles a day, that is, they can walk more than thirty miles in the last two days.
Just beside the carriage in the wing, Wang Tong said in a deep voice, and the people around him nodded slowly, the cavalry on the grassland did not march fast, and many times they had to advance while grazing, and it was only two days before they arrived at the destination that the cavalry began to add.
"But the group of Tartars who attacked our Feng camp came over before dawn, and at noon, the attack stopped, and after we finished lunch, they brought hundreds of Ming people, what does this mean, there is their camp not far from here."
In the land of fierce fighting, the situation is changing rapidly, and no one would believe that those Tartar cavalry would temporarily put the Han people nearby, and it took less than two hours to go and return, let alone in the vicinity.
"This is not too far from the Hora Division, the officer judged, this group of Tartars is stationed in the Celestial Department to rest, waiting for our army to come, and then probe the horse to detect, in the early hours of this morning to attack, just now after the Tartars were defeated by our army, scattered in all directions, in the cold weather, the sky is getting dark, a man and a horse walk on the grassland and get lost, either frozen to death and starved, or eaten by tigers and wolves, they ran out of a camp that must return to the time to gather people to rest. Speaking of this, Wang Tong paused, smashed his right hand into a fist on his left hand, raised his voice and said, "What we have to do is to keep up, raid at night, and completely wipe out this group of Tartars." β
Hearing this, all the generals around him were shocked, and then their faces showed excitement, and then General Tan pondered and said: "Master, look at the Tartar cavalry is also very old, the camp of the Huole Department is so close to here, do they dare to stay there?" β
"How many times have our Ming soldiers and horses been out of the jam over the years.? How many times have you beaten it? How many times did you dare to pursue after victory? Not to mention the infantry chasing the cavalry? This official just bets that they can't think of this! β
General Tan pondered for a while, nodded in approval, and Cai Nan, who had just been inspecting the arrangements in the camp, interjected at this time: "My lord, if you provoke the border, if you are talked about at that time, you will have to trouble and entangle...
Wang Tong glanced at Tan Bing and Tan Jian, and said:
"Who started the provocation first, if you don't say it, who will know, besides, catch up and kill all those Tartars, the dead will naturally not talk much!" Wang Tong glanced at the picture, saw that everyone had no objections, and said: "The horse team, artillery, and musketeers will all stay behind along with the people, and this official will lead the foot soldiers to kill the enemy!"
The camp that had just been quiet became noisy again, and the people set up a cauldron to extinguish the outside, peel the horses, chop them into large pieces and throw them into the pot, and the salt and condiments were thrown in, and in a short time the aroma overflowed, and the cakes that had been baked long ago were broken and soaked in the broth, which was a good meal.
Chihei and five other Mongol villagers and several freed Han slaves walked at the front of the procession, and Wang Tong and his own soldiers walked behind these guides. Li Hutou walked at the end of the soldiers with a lantern, and behind him, he could vaguely see the light of more than a dozen lanterns.
The march in the dark night is on this kind of boundless grassland, and it is easy to run away and get lost, so Wang Tong played a red lantern here, and the battalion officers followed the red lantern, and the battalion officers played the white paper lanterns, and the soldiers of each battalion stared at the white paper lanterns.
Every half an hour, all stopped, each battalion reported the number of rectifications, and then continued to march, carefully, plus the training was rigorous on weekdays, the general secretary did not leave Mrs.
"When the little ones used to be in the north, they didn't dare to come out in winter and walk like this, it wasn't like freezing to death and being taken by wolves, but these brothers made it clear that looking at the stars and the moon can always find a general direction."
Chihei said in a low voice as he walked, those Han people are usually locked up in the tribe to do hard labor, and they know the location of the tribe, but when they were brought out today, they saw it halfway to remember, but there are several pro-soldiers who followed Liwei out of the fortress and have familiar terrain, after all, outside the fortress, there is water and grass, and they can also shelter from the wind, and there are not many places suitable for the tribe to live, plus the news from the prisoners, this is found. Walking at night, despite the large number of people, in order not to alarm the enemy, the footsteps are spread out very widely, and the lanterns are few, which makes people feel uncomfortable, and Chihei is there talking non-stop.
"A tribe of more than a thousand people, the tribe always has a few dogs, and the lights must be lit at night, so as not to get lost in the dark night, the lord does not know in the south, it is really convenient to come out in the middle of the night, but he gets lost and dies outside... So when I saw the lights, I got to that place one r, eleven eleven β front o"
The babbling kept talking, but it was suddenly stopped. , I can see a low-lying place in front of me, there are a few lights fluttering, and the fire department has actually arrived. Wang Tong took a few deep breaths and ordered: "Each battalion is in place and the whole team is on standby, blow out the lanterns and stand by!" β
At the edge of the Horebbe's dwelling, there were also guards on duty, but they were all listless and drowsy, and despite the great defeat they had suffered on the side of the Che Camp during the day, everyone was at ease to rest when they returned to this settlement.
They don't think that the Ming army has the courage to pursue, how can an army that is stuck in the camp pursue at night, not to mention that the Ming army is also very strong, if it is really a pursuit, the cavalry is not afraid of him.
At that time, there was also a sentry on Wang Tong's side, but he was napping there, and there was a nest that had been dug a long time ago, and he lit a fire in it before nightfall, and now the heat had not dissipated, and it was a good time to sleep.
Hearing the sound of the sound of the cuicui outside, the sentry woke up slightly, wondering if there was a wolf, just grabbed the weapon at hand, the grass that covered the mouth of the nest was pulled away, and the sharp weapon stabbed in, the sentry just let out a hoarse cry of pain, the man had already entered the nest, stretched out his hand to cover his mouth, but the blade in his hand was still not broken. "Master, a few sentry dens around have been cleared!"
After stopping for half an hour on the periphery, the few Tan family generals who ran out reported that they were all people with high martial arts, and it was really simple to do such a thing to clear the dark pile. Wang Tong stood there for a while, his body was a little cold, he nodded at this time, and said:
"Immediately send an order, take the official and the first battalion as the benchmark, take the order of each battalion as the order, take the area around the Huole Department as the sideline, spread out from left to right, and after each battalion settles down in position, send 100 households to report to see the fire on the officer's side, and move together!!"
The herald's own soldiers surrounded him, repeated Wang Tong's order, and immediately scattered the herald, Wang Tong turned around and ordered: "Sanbiao, you and Hutou go and get some hay, the better." Ma Sanbiao didn't have to come, but he didn't want to fall into a battle, so he followed.
As time passed, hundreds of households from each battalion came to report, saying that the position was completed, and the hay in front of Wang Tong was piled up more and more, Wang Tong's eyes had adapted to the darkness, looked at the camp in front of him, and said with a low smile: "The targets are really relieved, the horses and everything are in the stall on the edge of the tent area, won't we come over!" β
Sun Xin behind him had already lit a handful of hay with a flint fire sickle, Chihei picked up the leather bag and sprinkled the oil in the bag on the haystack in front of Wang Tong, Wang Tong took the lit straw and threw it on the fire, as soon as the haystack was ignited, it immediately burned, and the fire was together, and it could be heard from the first battalion behind Wang Tong, there was the sound of armor weapons vibrating, spreading from both sides, Wang Tong laughed, pulled out the spear inserted in the ground, and said loudly:
"Kill!! Kill all the Tartars!! β
After finishing speaking, he strode down, and around the Huole Department, the officers and soldiers of the various battalions of the Huwei Battalion walked down one after another. Between the tents of the Holebu, the dogs barked frantically......
