Chapter 47: Skillful Entry into Shenwu (1)

The plan is always not as fast as the change, which makes Li Zhen also a little helpless - according to the predetermined plan, after taking the large camp of the Baye Ancient Department, the troops should have been divided, except for Li Zhen who led a small number of soldiers and horses to set up more military flags and torches in the camp as suspicious soldiers, Hou Guozhong will lead the main cavalry force to bypass the Shanyin trail and take the goose feather mouth to sneak attack and kill the tiger's mouth, but what Li Zhen didn't expect was that the big camp was successfully defeated, but the soldiers couldn't be separated, without him, too many were captured.

In war, it's a good thing to have captures, and there can be a reason to reward soldiers, right? But it's also a big trouble to seize too much - the Baye Ancient Department is just like picking up rags, so greedy, it's like moving the entire Kaiyang back to the grassland, everything is wanted, and it's all loaded into the carriage, heh, good guy, the rags are enough to load hundreds of carts, not to mention the hundreds of Qingqiang Tang people who are tied up behind the carts, it is obvious that the Baye Ancient Department has packed all the gains from this invasion of the Tang Dynasty, and it will be withdrawn soon. In this way, the problem arises - according to the customs of the grassland tribes, the purpose of fighting is for property and slaves, Li Zhen took the people's nest, and made a trip to the ancient tribe of the wilderness, according to the temperament of the grassland tribes, how could it be possible to stop and return to the army, and not play with Li Zhen?

Fighting a war is not a joke, it depends on strength, don't look at the Tang Army's 1,000 cavalry to take the Baye Gu camp is only less than half an hour, and it also killed more than 5,000 people in the Baye Ancient Department to lose their armor and be embarrassed, but it was a sneak attack, not a head-to-head confrontation, if you really let Baye Gu notice that there are not many Tang Dynasty military horses, then nearly 10,000 people in Kaiyang City will come out, Li Zhen is afraid that there is no second way to go, this is not a romance, A story of fighting a hundred is just a legend at all, and it can't be true, and the originally planned plan of the suspicious soldiers will not be useful for the time being, but it is not a bad plan to do the opposite - as soon as Li Zhen found out about those captures, he immediately ordered the fire of the entire camp: whether it was a torch or a tent that was on fire, all the horses remained silent, waiting for the Bano Gu to come to attack, and the bet was that Bano Gu would not dare to attack with all his strength without knowing the truth.

Obviously, Li Zhen was right, and just when Baye Tuo signaled his more than a dozen cavalry to enter the camp to investigate first, Li Zhen shouted violently: "Release the arrow!" Suddenly, the Tang Dynasty cavalry, which had been waiting in the dark for a long time, stretched out their bows and arrows at the same time, and more than a thousand feather arrows roared through the night sky like flying locusts, covering the unprepared Baye Tuobu, and shot down more than 100 people in an instant, before Bayo Tuo understood what was going on, but saw that the pitch-black camp suddenly shouted everywhere, nearly a thousand torches lit up, and groups of Tang cavalry rushed out of the camp. Evacuate! "Don't go back to the city, according to the predetermined plan in advance, flee along the avenue on the left side of the camp towards Shenwu, the Tang cavalry does not chase and kill, as soon as they see the ancient tribe of Baye fleeing, they immediately turn around and return to the camp, most of the time, the battlefield is quiet again, except for the frequent death of the wounded and the wailing of the war horses, there is no sound on the side.

At the head of Kaiyang City, Qu Li lost his eyes and saw that the more than 1,000 horsemen under his command fled without even taking a single face, his heart was half cold, and he trembled for a while, only to find that he was still naked, and immediately sneezed fiercely, stomped his feet hatefully, and walked straight down the city. The high priest Na Long stared at the camp where the fire was gradually extinguishing for a long time, but he still couldn't see the reality of the Tang army, shook his head helplessly, ordered the whole army to stay on guard, and rushed back to the county office boringly.

"Hou Guozhong, Liu Tietao listened to the order: This Wang Ling'er and others immediately led the army to set off, acted according to the predetermined plan, and must take the tiger's mouth before dawn the day after tomorrow." As soon as he repelled the tentative attack of Bano Tuo, Li Zhen did not waste any time, and immediately gathered all his generals together and issued a battle order.

"What? On a scheduled schedule? As soon as Li Zhen's voice fell, Cao Liu Tietao, a rider from Yanmen Pass who cooperated with the battle, immediately shouted: "Your Highness, no, by all means, I will wait for this time to leave, Your Highness only has twenty guards by his side, if the Baye Ancient Department comes to attack again, how can it be good?" ”

"It's fine." Li Zhen smiled and waved his hand and said: "The Baye Ancient Department doesn't have the courage to go out of the city again, well, that's good, order the troops to change into the clothes and armor of the Baye Ancient Department, and the changed armor will be left, and this king will have his own wonderful use." ”

"Your Royal Highness, those young and strong people have no relevant training, lighting torches, shouting a few times is okay, if they are allowed to practice in formation, I am afraid that it will be self-defeating, and the last general is willing to use a battalion of soldiers and horses to kill the tiger's mouth, and I hope that the prince will give permission." Hou Guozhong vaguely guessed Li Zhen's plan, and hurriedly persuaded him.

Hehe, the little monkey still has some ability, and it is not to be underestimated that he can react so quickly. Li Zhen's mind moved quickly, but his face was full of smiles and said: "It's okay, this king doesn't want those young and strong people to fight, this king has his own measure in this matter, there is no need to discuss it, well, it is easy to kill the tiger's mouth and difficult to attack, although there are not many defenders, but if you want to capture it smoothly, you have to wait for more thought, a thousand men and horses are already very nervous, if you leave people and this king, you can't hold it even if you can capture it, whether the main force of our army can catch Xue Yantuo's army can count on Er to wait, hehe, the time is not early, and if you have to delay again, the sky will be bright, Once the city detects the movements of the others, let alone take down the tiger's mouth, it is dangerous for the king, go. ”

Seeing that Li Zhen had made up his mind, Hou and Liu didn't dare to persuade them anymore, they glanced at each other, and each took his officers out to retire, and went to arrange for a change of clothes and armor and wrapped the horse's hooves. Li Zhen strode out of the tent, looked up at the head of Kaiyang City, which was illuminated by torches in the distance, shrugged his shoulders, and led the people straight to the back camp.

"Lord Wang." As soon as he saw Li Zhen come out of the shadows, Li Ge, the captain of the personal guard who was taking care of the rescued young and strong guards, hurriedly stepped forward and bowed.

"Hmm." Li Zhen nodded, and before he could say anything, he saw a commotion among the young and strong group, and a burly man squeezed out of the crowd, and hurriedly ran towards Li Zhen, so startled that Li Zhen's guards hurriedly rushed forward, intending to capture this person.

"Let go of me, let go of me! Lord, lord, the little one has something to say. The big man was pushed to the ground by Li Zhen's guards, struggling desperately, shouting non-stop.

Well? What does this kid want to do? Assassinate? Not that way! Li Zhen frowned, waved his hand and said, "Let him go." ”

The big man broke free from the control of the guards, stumbled in front of Li Zhen, knelt on the ground and said: "Lord Wang, the little one's surname is Chen Mingliang, a local name, please let me join the army, the little one has been hunting since childhood, and he can shoot a four-stone bow, and I beg the prince to accept the small one." ”

What? Four-stone bow? Hehe, good guy, we can only play with the five-stone bow, this kid can open four stones, that's a rarity. Li Zhen's heart moved, but he didn't reply immediately, but frowned and thought for a while before he said calmly: "Since you can open a four-stone bow, why didn't you help defend the city when Kaiyang City was besieged, huh?" ”

"Lord Wang, the little one did help defend the city, but when the city was broken, he tried his best to be captured, and the little one wants to take revenge, ask the prince to be merciful and accept the small one." Chen Liang kowtowed and said like pounding garlic, his head was knocked out of blood, black and red blood was left along his forehead, and under the reflection of the torch, a sloppy bearded face looked particularly hideous.

Avenge? Oh, that's a reason. Li Zhen smiled indifferently and said, "Revenge? If you have any vengeance to avenge you, let me hear it with the king. ”

Chen Liang burst into tears, and said intermittently: "Prince, prince, the small, small family of seven is all ......, the prince, the little one wants revenge, the prince ......."

Yes, Chen Liang cried, and hundreds of young people behind him all cried, all of them kept saying that they wanted revenge, everyone shouted that they wanted to join the army, it was really lively, and the noise made Li Zhen's head big - according to Li Zhen's plan, it is indeed necessary to use this group of young people, but use it, Li Zhen didn't want them to be soldiers, just kidding, the big war is about to start, who has the courage to take a group of untrained soldiers to the battlefield, let alone kill the enemy, if Li Zhen, the main general, has to be dragged down by a farmer, But in the face of a group of people who want to serve the country, it is not a way to refuse bluntly, and it can't dampen everyone's enthusiasm, so Li Zhen had to wait for everyone to shout tired, and then said softly: "It's a good thing that you want to join the army, but the soldiers are in danger and danger, and you can't bear to get out of the big trouble, and this king can't bear to suffer from another disaster." ”

"Lord Wang, the small ones are not afraid of death, you can have a large number of adults, accept the small ones." Seeing that Li Zhen refused to agree, Chen Liang kowtowed desperately and begged in a wailing voice.

"Yes, the prince, you can do it, we will be inseparable from the barbarians, and ask the prince for mercy!"

"Please, Lord."

……

A group of young people knelt all over the ground, and the sound of pleading became a loud one, making Li Zhen helpless, secretly thinking for a long time, and said with a long sigh: "Folks, please get up, this king will ...... if he agrees."

Before Li Zhen finished speaking, he was interrupted by the voice of gratitude from hundreds of young people, seeing that he was afraid that he would have to carry such a big burden, Li Zhen shook his head with a wry smile, pressed his hand and said, "Calm down, calm down." After everyone quieted down, Li Zhen said calmly: "Since you have decided to join the army, then you should all be incorporated into the king's army, but there is one rule, from now on, everything must be done according to the king's orders, and if there is a violation, military law will be done." ”

"Yes."

"Yes."

"Okay."

"Agreed."

Yes, a group of people replied with their throats, the voice was very loud, but not neat, not to say, but also to answer their own answers, God knows how to bring these soldiers, Li Zhen didn't even have the strength to smile bitterly, rolled his eyes, pressed his hand and said loudly: "Soldiers, listen to orders." After everyone quieted down, Li Zhen arranged in a calm voice......
