Prosperous Tang Blood Blade

Chapter 218 Cunning opponent

When he was in Bogulu City, Chen Ying once set up a mobile beacon tower on the snow sledge.Now he continues to use this method.But now the snow sledge cannot move on the grass, but you can put the fire stove of the beacon tower on the carriage, and when you see the Turkic soldiers and horses approaching, immediately light the wolf smoke. If it is a small group of enemies, light a single wave of smoke. If you advance, you will light two strands of wolf smoke, and if the army advances one after another, you will light three strands of wolf smoke!

But in order to pass the news at night, it is natural to use the bonfire as the number.

Each regiment of the Lingwu Army draws out a team to patrol and guard, while the other teams continue to carry out ideological education.The [-]th team escorted a two-wheeled carriage, which contained rations for the team and a fire stove.With fifty cavalry as a team, arrange eyeliner and sentry cavalry along all directions of Fengzhou City.

From time to time, a single wave of wolf smoke appeared, and as long as the enemy was found in one direction, other Turkic people would continue to support them. Except for the occasional double wave of wolf smoke, there was no phenomenon of triple wolf smoke rising.

Chen Ying continued to use Fengzhou City as a base to conduct training for the entire army.Although the Lingwu Army focuses on ideological education, it is supplemented by training in formation and coordination. Almost all the soldiers of the Lingwu Army no longer need special training in bow shooting, horse riding and horse control, but they lack effective cooperation. .

Rushing up like a swarm of bees, if you rush up, you will win, and if you can't rush up, you will retreat. This is the war method that the Turks are used to.However, this method of warfare has natural shortcomings.Encountering the enemy's tight formation, or a general who is skilled in using troops, he will definitely suffer a big loss.

However, with the daily complaining campaign, these Turks have hated their patriarchs and leaders, and their morale is quite high.On that night, after Chen Ying finished his tour of the camp, he fell asleep for just over an hour, "Master, master...Master, something important has happened!" Someone knocked on the door and called him to do something.

Hearing the voice of Lingwu Right General Asina Simo, Chen Ying got up in his clothes, ordered the guards to let him in, and asked, "What happened?"

"A spy has been caught, and this spy wants to see the general!" Ashina Sima couldn't make up his mind, so he came to ask Chen Ying's opinion first.

Chen Ying was so sleepy at this moment, he waved his hands and said, "I want to see, the general, who wants to see me!"

After a while, two guards were escorting a middle-aged man who was tied up like a rice dumpling. The middle-aged man looked extremely tired, but his expression didn't show much fear or uneasiness.

Chen Yingdao: "Who are you?"

"The next official is Zhang Changxun, the general manager of Fengzhou!" The middle-aged man said, "The official seal and dental plaque of the next official are lost..."

As early as when Chen Ying was appointed the military commander of Lingzhou, Shengzhou, Huazhou, Xiazhou, Yanzhou, Suizhou, Yinzhou, and Fengzhou, he had seen the resume of Zhang Changxun, the general manager of Fengzhou.This Zhang Changxun was born in Jingzhao Liyang (now Lintong, Shaanxi).He is good at horseback riding and archery, and served as the head of the village in the Sui Dynasty.Because of Ping Chen's meritorious service, he was promoted to Shangkaifu, and after many promotions, he served as the general governor of Wuyuan County.In the face of war, he became attached to the Turks, and the Turks named him cut Litler.At the beginning of the rebel army, he led the whole county to surrender to the Tang Dynasty. He was appointed as the prefect of Wuyuan and the Duke of Anhua County on the spot, and later changed to the Duke of Fanyang County.At that time, Liang Shidu and Xue Ju asked the Turks to send troops to cross the river to the south, and Zhang Changxun made a false edict for Mo Heduo to destroy their plan.

Zhang Changxun is not an exaggeration to say that he is bold.This is a master who dares to forge Li Yuan's imperial decree.Although the person who called himself Zhang Changxun could match him in terms of height, age and accent, Chen Ying did not arbitrarily think that this person must be the right one. identity of?"

Zhang Changxun nodded and said, "That's true, but...it's not important!"

"Oh?" Chen Ying said, "Then what is important?"

"I'm in the chief management camp now, and sooner or later I can prove my identity as a subordinate!" Zhang Changxun said solemnly: "The most important thing now is...Xi Feng Bu Lai is coming."

Chen Ying looked at Ashina Simo and said, "Do you know who this Xifeng Bulai is?"

Ashina Simo said: "He is a party member, and he is also the East Turkic Guangwei Teller!"

Chen Ying signaled Ashina Simo to untie Zhang Changxun, Ashina Simo didn't think about it, and was about to cut off the cowhide rope on Zhang Changxun's body with a knife, when Xu Jingzong came in and said: "Master, this person's origin is unknown, if he has ulterior motives , will it endanger the general manager?"

Chen Ying shook his head and said, "Now is no longer the era of assassin politics!"

Zhang Changxun looked at Chen Ying pitifully and said, "Is there anything to eat? I haven't eaten all day and night!"

Chen Ying asked Zhang Changxun to prepare a big pot of fat meat, Zhang Changxun was not polite, and started to gobble it up.

At this moment, a soldier urgently reported: "There are three bonfires in the northeast!"

"Three bonfires!" Chen Ying hurriedly walked out of the tent and quickly climbed up the watchtower. Although it was hard to see clearly at night, the bonfires in the northeast were not three piles, but at least thirty piles.At least it shows that no less than thirty teams have encountered the enemy's large force.

Chen Ying walked down the watchtower slowly, returned to the big tent of the Chinese army, and ordered: "Don't panic, it's just a trick to exhaust the enemy. The other armies continue to sleep!"

Sure enough, just as Chen Ying expected, after the enemy tossed around midnight, seeing that the Lingwu army and Dingyuan army did not go out to pursue the camp, they gradually dispersed.

When the sky was slightly bright, Chen Ying simply washed up and then climbed up to the watchtower. At this time, the field of vision was wide, and he could see the Turkic army fighting three times.It is like three layers of waves, advancing layer by layer. There are about 3000 people on the first layer, more than [-] people on the second layer, and more than [-] people on the third layer. There are several miles between each layer. , and well-armored, not comparable to ordinary Turkic troops.

"Is this the Turkic army?" Chen Ying asked looking at the Turkic army formation in front of him.

Ashina Simo shook his head and said, "No, this is a party wolf!"

"Jie Tuo? Isn't it right?" Chen Ying looked at these armors with a rate of more than [-]% and more than half of them were excellent armors. He said in disbelief: "How come they have so many armors?"

Ashina Simo didn't know how to answer Chen Ying's words, but at this moment, Zhang Changxun's voice sounded behind Chen Ying, saying, "Tang Bi's wealth accumulated in the past three years is all worthless!"

Looking at Chen Ying, it seems that he is not familiar with Tang Bi.Zhang Changxun explained: "This Tang Bi was from Fufeng. Daye gathered people to rebel in Qianyuan for ten years, elected Li Hongzhi as emperor, and claimed to be the king of Tang. However, Li Hongzhi was just his puppet. Xue Ju rebelled in the 11th year of Daye. His son Xue Renguo attacked Tang Bi and was defeated by Tang Bi. In the 13th year of the great cause, Xue Ju, in order to annex Tang Bi, asked for troops from Shibi Khan, and Shibi Khan ordered Guangwei Teller Xifeng Bulai to lead [-] light soldiers to help Xue Ju, not a month later Tang Bi was defeated and killed, and the more than [-] pairs of fine steel armor accumulated over three years were all snatched away by Xifeng Bulai..."

Chen Ying walked down from the watchtower and walked to the platform where the Chinese army ordered the commander.Seeing Chen Ying's arrival, Yu Guni, Chen Yongjin, and Luo Shixin all said in unison: "Report to the general manager, please fight!"

Others like Captain Zhechong and Lieutenant Tuanxiao are also gearing up, ready to move, especially those soldiers of the Lingwu Army who have undergone ideological education and training, with wolf-like green lights in their eyes.

Looking at the elite army under Xifengbu Lai's command, instead of feeling scared, they were like hungry wolves seeing sheep.

Chen Ying wanted to be the first to order the Dingyuan army to fight, but Yu Guni said: "My master, you can't always let General Luo do meritorious service, it's not fair!"

When Luo Shixin heard this, his nose was twisted with anger, and he stretched out his arms and said, "Can you beat me?"

Yu Guni didn't answer, Ashina Simo also said: "Director, you can't treat this more favorably than this..."

Chen Ying thought it was the same, he had to be fair in training the soldiers in the army every day, but if he couldn't do it himself, the soldiers of the Lingwu Army would definitely complain.

Thinking of this, Chen Yingdao: "Chen Jinyong led the first, second, third, and fourth left armies of the Lingwu Army to attack the left flank of the residence, and Ashina Simo led the seventh, eighth, and eighth left armies of the Lingwu Army. The ninth and tenth folds are the right wing, attacking its right. Yu Guni leads the Lingwu left army to the fifth and sixth folds, and the Lingwu right army No.11, No.12, and No.13 are the backup of the Chinese army. Attack the middle way!"

All the generals were overjoyed when they heard the words, and they promised.

It didn't take long for Lingwu's left and right armies, a total of thirteen Zhechongfu's nearly 2 horses, were divided into left, middle and right three routes, like wild horses running wild, rushing towards the Dangxiang cavalry on the opposite side.

Looking at a khaki torrent rushing towards him, Xifeng Bulai, who was standing at the front of the formation, looked at the three Lingwu troops from the left, middle and right, and said with regret: "Why didn't you see Chen Ying's banner?" ? Could it be that you peed in fright?"

The surrounding party generals burst into laughter upon hearing this.

"If you didn't come, then you didn't come!" Xifeng Bulai said, "Blow the trumpet to meet the enemy!"

Rhythmic bugle horns sounded in Xifengbulai's army, and the rhythmic horn was blown over and over again. All the generals understood the meaning of Xifengbulai when they heard the horn.

In fact, the horn horn can not play complex tunes like the trumpet, but this horn horn can blow three notes: high, low, and flat. Relying on these three simple notes, although it is impossible to transmit complicated orders, simple military orders , but it can be passed directly by bullhorn.

The general at the first level of the Dangxiang army is a rising star of the Dangxiang clan, the young general Tuoba You.Tuoba You was the son of Tuoba Ningcong, the former leader of the party. When Tuoba Ningcong died in Sashui in the ninth year of Daye, Tuoba You was only eight years old.It's only 15 years old now.However, the 15-year-old Tuoba Yu won the championship.

When Tuoba You heard the order conveyed by the horn, he immediately commanded [-] cavalrymen under his command, and rushed towards Chen Jinyong's troops.

Chen Ying took a look at this moment, and there were [-] cavalry in this army, but more than [-] horses. This was obviously not a short-distance charge but a long-distance preparation. The [-] horses were heading northeast, and that was to attack Chen Jinyong's left flank in a roundabout way. , It may even be to bypass Chen Jinyong's left flank and rush to the rear of Yu Guni's army to attack!

Chen Ying smiled slightly and said disapprovingly: "He is really a cunning opponent!"
