Chastity Layman 2

Chapter 1009
Freshly slaughtered sheep, the mashed lamb liver is wrapped into strips with net oil, and then skewered and roasted on the fire. It is extremely simple, and there is no complicated marinating and seasoning. Slowly roasted by the fire, the net oil becomes golden and slightly burnt , the grease dripped down drop by drop.

Cheng Qian took out the salt that he carried with him, and sprinkled a small handful of fine salt on it.

"It's a pity that there is no pepper. It would be better if there is some Furuto to add some spiciness."

The four generals couldn't help their throats wriggling when they saw the golden suet-wrapped liver, and their saliva was about to flow out of the corners of their mouths.

"Is the mutton kebab dressed?" Cheng Qian asked.

"Okay, okay, a piece of mutton and a piece of mutton tail oil, it drips oil when roasted, it's absolutely delicious!" Gao Zhensheng hurriedly handed the mutton skewers he had dressed to Chengqian.

Chengqian skillfully grilled by the charcoal fire. This is a skill he learned slowly after eating Qin Lang's barbecue skewers before. It can be said to be better than most cooks.

His Royal Highness the Prince gave each of us two skewers of the freshly baked liver wrapped in oil, took a bite, and it really still tasted the same.

fresh.

"No matter what reason Tuoba Chici and others delayed, and no matter why Hou Junji did not arrive, anyway, I have already decided, after dawn, I will strike while the iron is hot and hunt down Murong Cheng again. There is no reason you said Wrong, but I also know that you are all fierce generals under Qin Lang's command. You are saying this now because I am here. If I am not here, I guess you will have killed in Murong Cheng's camp tonight. It's..."

"Let the brothers have a good meal. Don't be reluctant to kill the captured cattle and sheep. How can dead horse meat taste better than beef and mutton? Although this season loses fat and thinner, it is not as good as autumn fat sheep, but it is still good to eat of."

"You four discuss who will stay behind?" Cheng Qian smiled and finished eating a bunch of suet-wrapped livers before continuing to the next one.

The four generals looked at each other, what the prince just said was correct, if it wasn't for the prince being in the army, they might really be chasing after him to the end today, they wouldn't rest here at all, and they wouldn't even come up with any plans to stand by and wait for help.

In war, you have to pursue and fight fiercely. The real way to defeat a large army is to keep chasing until the opponent is completely defeated and there is no possibility of reunion.

It's not their style to hit and retreat.

Think back when they followed Wei Gong to fight Dangxiang, and they fought against each other, didn't they always fight like this, one after another, one wave after another, until the opponent completely collapsed?
But now after all, the crown prince is in the army, and the surprise attack is very dangerous. The follow-up [-] cavalry troops of Dangxiang and Turks failed to arrive as expected, and Hou Junji's infantry riding horses and mules were also delayed. They have to think about the crown prince. .

Just take it when you see it.

But His Royal Highness the Crown Prince didn't intend to accept it at all. He was not satisfied with this victory. Although it was already a brilliant victory, if it was passed back to the Luoyang court and won as the emperor, it would surely surprise countless people.

This is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's first battle, and it is also the first victory that has amazed the world. Putting it on an eighteenth Crown Prince, it is enough to amaze the world.

Even if the emperor started his army at the age of 16, he never fought such a beautiful battle at that time.

Chengqian can accept it as soon as he sees it, and he can wait for reinforcements here, and leave the rest of the battle to Hou Junji and the others. No matter what the result of the fight is, his achievements will not be affected in the slightest.

Based on this battle, he was able to completely suppress Wei Wang Li Tai and Wu Wang Li Ke who coveted his position as the crown prince. The whole world, looking inside and outside, is afraid that in the future, he will look at His Royal Highness with admiration. In the past two years, the emperor has treated the crown prince His dissatisfaction, and some ministers and prime ministers' pessimism towards him will all change because of this.

"Your Highness, the soldiers are exhausted!" Gao Kan persuaded.

Liang Jianfang also said, "Although we won this battle, we also suffered a lot of casualties. More than 1000 people died in the battle, and more than 5000 were seriously injured, and [-] people were directly reduced. In addition, many soldiers suffered from severe injuries and many suffered from frostbite. Our horses have also lost a lot..."

They are talking about difficulties with the prince, hoping that the prince can retreat in spite of the difficulties.

"If we go to battle tomorrow, there will be at most 20 fighters, or even only about [-]. Murong Cheng has already fled to the Tuyuhun garrison twenty miles away, where there are at least [-] fresh troops. , Murong Cheng's defeated troops here can also gather quite a few, and even the other tens of thousands of horses nearby may have received his order and are rushing over to reinforce them. What we will face is not just Murong Cheng's defeated army, but It is the overwhelming power of the entire Tuyuhun, which may exceed [-] people."

"Ten thousand versus 20, that's a huge disparity!"

Cheng Qian just laughed.

"I wanted to come here to surprise Murong Cheng earlier. Didn't you say that, but in fact, 2 of us broke him by 20. Even before General Gao and you arrived, General Xi and I broke him with only [-]." It’s [-]. Now we fight [-] with [-], no difference? Even, we are still fighting a defeated army, and we have an overall advantage!”

The fierce generals didn't know how to speak anymore. If it had been before this battle, they would have believed that the prince had started acting like a monster again.

But after this battle, they couldn't accuse the prince like that. After all, what the prince said was right, it was indeed five thousand and broke one hundred thousand.

Originally they planned that the 5000 Helong soldiers would be divided into front and rear armies, and they would rush to attack Murong Cheng for two hundred miles, but who knew, in the end the crown prince ran very fast, and 10 people directly launched an attack, which really killed Murong Cheng. The camp of [-] people killed people off their feet.

If Gao Kan and the others didn't arrive in time, the prince's 5000 people would still be dangerous in the end, but in the end they only defeated [-] Tuyuhun people with [-] riders. It doesn't matter if you say they were unprepared, or the real elite among them About [-], there is no reason, but the winner is king.

"Your Highness, it's different. Earlier we rushed and killed Murong Cheng by surprise. They were completely unprepared, but now they have already alerted the enemy. Although Murong Cheng was defeated for a while, he was already prepared. It will be different if we fight again."

The four generals Liang Gao really wanted to fight, but they still had to suppress their thoughts and persuade the prince to give up his mind.

"Wait a little longer, maybe Tuoba Chici and the others will be able to arrive tonight? If the [-] horsemen arrive later, even if Hou Junji doesn't come, I will definitely support His Highness to attack Murong Cheng!" Xi Jun bought one Can say so.

With the addition of [-] fresh troops, even if they are fan cavalry, they no longer have to be afraid of Tuyuhun's large number of troops.

"Why haven't these horsemen come yet? Could it be that they secretly colluded with Murong Cheng to betray Tang, or that they deliberately sat on the fence, wanted to sit on the sidelines and watch the tigers fight, or simply wanted to preserve their strength? They wanted to work without exerting themselves? "

Chengqian was very dissatisfied with the failure of the [-] vassal cavalry of Dangxiang and Turks to arrive as expected.

They set off almost at the same time. Cheng Qian and Xi Junmai set off directly from Haiyan Fort, while Gao Kan and the three generals assembled and dispatched troops not far from the vicinity of Haiyan Fort.Tuoba Chici and other Dangxiang and Turkic tribes, because they were stationed at the outskirts of Haiyan Castle at that time, it may take some time to regroup, and the distance is a little farther than them, but it is not far away, and the assembly will not cost much. How much time.

They fight from morning to night, it has been two days and one night, no matter how slow the horsemen are, a few hours in a day is not enough, it should be here by night.

Chengqian's suspicion is actually Gao Kan's suspicion, but there is no proof, and it's not easy to talk nonsense right now.

Gao Kan didn't want to blame the friendly army at this time, so he smoothed things over, "I feel that they may not dare to be so single-minded. The [-] Tibetan cavalry were originally composed of Dangxiang Qiang, Bailan Qiang, Misang Qiang, Tuyuhun, Turkic, etc. It is composed of various ministries attached to the inland migration. Although it is commanded by Tuoba Chici and Xifeng Bulai, it is certainly not as well-trained as the generals and guards of the Helong Army of the Tang Dynasty, and they cooperate tacitly. Marching, it’s normal for these people to be faster than us, two hundred miles, and it’s a snowy day, it takes two days or even three or four days to arrive, which is actually within the normal range.”

The [-] Tibetan cavalry consisted of the eight tribes of the Dangxiang, some small Qiang tribes, and some Di tribes. In addition, the Tuyuhun people who moved inland, the Turkic people who were resettled, etc., can be said to be very complicated. Before departure, they They are scattered over a hundred miles around Haiyan Fort, and it's not easy to collect them. You can't use the standard of Longyou's elite to demand these horsemen.

The mutton is delicious, and the mutton is fatter. If he was in Chang'an, Cheng Qian would have eaten less and it was too greasy. But now it is sandwiched in the mutton and grilled.

After eating several large skewers in one go, Cheng Qian wiped his mouth.

"Tomorrow I will take [-] cavalry to attack, and the rest will be stationed here to take care of the wounded, guard the prisoners and capture them, and wait for the reinforcements to arrive. Which of you will stay here voluntarily?"

The four generals refused to stay, and they persuaded Chengqian for a long time, but Chengqian was determined to pursue him.

"Qin Lang has a very domineering poem. Haven't you read it? It's better to be brave enough to chase the poor, not to be known as the overlord. It's so domineering. A group of bereaved dogs, what do you have to be so afraid of?"

"Since you all don't want to stay, then Gu will let Donggong Qianniu Helan Chushi be responsible for staying behind. You all go with Gu Sha and kill them all!"

"Things are arranged like this. The four generals all go back and hurry up to rest. They will send troops tomorrow morning."

Xi Jun bought Gao Kan, Liang Jianfang, Gao Zhensheng and the four generals were silent for a while, and finally looked at each other, and they had no choice but to agree.

"Although the troops will be dispatched tomorrow morning, we still need to be more careful tonight. We must arrange the night watch army. In addition, the brothers should wear their armor and armor and stand ready for attack. We can't let the Tuyuhun thieves capsize in the gutter. Alright!" Cheng Qian confessed with a smile, he patted his armor, "I won't take off this armor tonight, and I won't even have a weapon in my hand!"

Liang Jianfang patted his armor, "I'm on duty tonight, Your Highness can rest easy."
