Datang first village

That night, Li Yubao met the Turkic army, 5 elite soldiers, [-] to [-] families, one million sheep, and [-] horses.

"The Turks are going to take the lead in attacking Datang!" Li Yubao whispered to the lieutenant beside him.

"Before the tent, shut up!" a Turkic soldier yelled.

Li Yubao and others quickly shut their mouths, but this was not over yet, another Turkic soldier raised his whip: "Get out of the way, don't block the run of the great Turkic warrior!" Helpless, Li Yubao had to retreat to a corner.He took out one of the several black feather arrows he was carrying, and pinned it to his leg.

A group of Turkic knights rode past without even looking at Li Yubao and the others.

It seemed that it would take some time for the Turkic people to meet him. Li Yubao said to the guarding Turkic soldiers, "I want to go to the bathroom!"

"Go away!" The Turkic soldier raised his hand and whipped him.

In the eyes of the Turkic people, Liang Shidu is just a dog, and Liang Shidu's subordinates are even worse than dogs.

Li Yubao was beaten with a whip, but he didn't dare to resist, and walked towards the dark place.

Li Yubao's attention was drawn to a slave who was feeding a horse. The man's hair was tied with strips of grass cloth on his head.This seems to be the same as the little official who claimed to be the security department of the Tang Empire before he came here.

"Da Qin is the virtue of water!" Li Yubao said in a low voice.

The slave who fed the horse didn't even turn his head, and just said: "Go away, you madman!"

Is it wrong?Li Yubao was a little confused, walked to a tree and opened his pants to release the water.But just when Li Yubao was about to go back, the slave who fed him yelled at him again: "Come and help me carry the grass."

Li Yubao didn't want to pay attention to this slave, but a shout came from not far away: "Little soldiers of Liangcheng, quickly move the grass. Our Turkic horse slaves are much nobler than you!" After shouting, several Turkic soldiers haha Laughing.

Lifting the grass, you can only lift the grass.

However, Li Yubao also understood that this time Turkic was planning to destroy Liang Shidu.It seems that even if the Tang Dynasty is not destroyed, the Turks will do it.Master Liang was dead anyway, but he was lucky. It seemed better to surrender to Datang earlier.

While carrying the grass, the slave cursed in a low voice: "Who trained you? There are Turkic people who dare to call the joint signal!"

"This..." Li Yubao was choked and speechless.

"What are you here for?" the slave asked again. Just as Li Yubao was about to answer, he suddenly came back to his senses and shook his head: "Nothing!" The official had already explained that Li Yubao's mission was known to no one except himself.

Fortunately, Li Yubao came to his senses.

"It's not bad. Is there a way to arrange for someone to go back? Don't tell me we've already taken Shuofang City!"

The armor on Li Yubao's body is the armor of Liang Shidu's soldiers and horses, which is easy to recognize.If you can't even recognize this point, people like the Security Department of the Tang Empire are too useless.

"Yes!" After Li Yubao thought about it, he thought it was still possible to send someone back first.

A wax pill was handed over to Li Yubao and whispered: "It must be delivered." Then the slave kicked Li Yubao: "Go away, you are so stupid that you can't even move grass, go away!"

Li Yubao put the wax pill in his arms and left quickly.

When Li Yubao went back, it happened that King Zuo Xian of Turkic wanted to see him.

"Honorable Lord Zuoxian, Mr. Liang asked the villain to say hello to you." Li Yubao knelt on the ground. It turned out that this was not the first time he knelt at the feet of Turkic people. It seemed that Turkic people liked to see Tang people kneeling.Before, there wasn't much fluctuation in his heart, but this time, Li Yubao felt a huge sense of humiliation!

King Zuo Xian waved his hand, someone threw a piece of fleshy bone in front of Li Yubao. "Your reward!"

No matter how unwilling Li Yubao was in his heart, he had to put it on. He held up his bones and thanked him, and said: "Please send troops quickly, King Zuoxian, my Duke Liang is about to be unable to hold on. The little King Qin of the Tang Army is really arrogant. The Duke surrendered, but only allowed a rich and noble earl, if he does not agree tomorrow, he will attack Liangcheng!"

After speaking, Li Yubao took out a box.

In the box, there is a letter with the seal of King Qin, the earl's copy.Then there was Liang Shidu's handwritten letter, which was written by some of Liang Shidu's trusted clerks under the whip.Finally, there is a letter written by Zhao Yande and a token!

"Hmph!" Zuo Xianwang snorted coldly: "Why didn't that dog Zhao Yande come over to see me personally!"

"General Zhao flinched last night!"

Hahaha!Zuo Xianwang laughed loudly: "A cheap dog who can only roll on a woman's belly, and can't even show off the slightest prestige!"

Li Yubao didn't dare to answer, but lowered his head very low.

"Send people back quickly, the king will enter the city at noon tomorrow. Let that bitch and your Duke Liang come out of the city to meet you. You will be the king's guide, and we will set off at four o'clock tomorrow!" King Zuo Xian obviously did not intend to rush on the road overnight, There will be no delay if we arrive at noon tomorrow. If the Tang army attacks the city, a cavalry charge under the city will solve the problem.

That night, Li Yuanxing got a wax pill.

The secret language was used, and after Qin Qiong hired someone who was in charge of the secret language to read it, he wrote it in popular words.

People in Datang are very economical, saving paper and ink.

Li Yuanxing gave it to Li Jing after only one glance. In fact, most of Li Yuanxing didn't understand what it meant.Li Jing understood everything very easily, and then said to Li Yuanxing: "With this thing, we will surely win. The Turkic troops are all arranged here. The front team has about 5 soldiers and [-] herdsmen."

"The only trouble is the sheep!" Qin Qiong also said: "There are too many sheep, let's not talk about how difficult it is to encircle them all together. Just encircle them, these sheep are enough for them to feed for a month, and the herdsmen still have some food on them."

Li Yuanxing didn't feel much pressure, and at least hundreds of versions of this tactic could be found in later generations. "I have a tactic, which requires a certain amount of sacrifice. The first [-] riders can come back half alive at most, but they can cut off the front and back of the Turks!"

"What kind of method?" Li Jing and Qin Qiong asked at the same time.

"Heavy cavalry chain formation!" What Li Yuanxing was talking about was actually a variant of the kidnapper horse used by the Kingdom of Jin in the Song Dynasty, which had many similar uses in cavalry formations.Especially when intercepting the enemy army, the effect is very good, but the disadvantage is obvious, that is, the follow-up force cannot keep up, which will cause the consumption of combat power.

Li Yuanxing was afraid that the two of them would not understand, so he stuck water and drew on the table: "Connect the four horses together with iron chains and iron frames, with iron spikes on the outside, the knight holds a spear in his hand, and a crossbow can be installed at the back. Timing can produce huge results. Apart from the weakness that the follow-up troops can't keep up, this formation can only attack five miles at most, and the horsepower is insufficient!"

"Five miles, enough!" Qin Qiong thought differently from Li Yuanxing.

Li Yuanxing was worried that there would be too many casualties, and at most half of the cavalry would come back alive.This tactic is to let the sergeant go up to die.

But Qin Qiong was different. Qin Qiong thought in his heart, so what if all the five hundred cavalry died, followed closely by three thousand cavalry and three thousand heavy armor.It is not a problem to cut off the Turks. Three to 5000 people will die. As long as the brigade has the opportunity to line up, then the plan will be considered a complete success.

Li Jing's thinking is similar to Qin Qiong's.

But Li Jing was obviously smarter than Qin Qiong. Li Jing said: "Wu Lang's proposal is very clever. Why don't we refit some carts and use carts to form a chariot formation. The speed of the light armored infantry is fast enough to cut off the Turks is not a problem!"

"Okay! Let's make arrangements separately!" Li Yuanxing patted the table.

Naturally, someone will do the specific work, and Li Yuanxing, who is the king of Qin, does not need to ask about such a trivial matter.

Qin Qiong went out to inspect the trap again, while Li Jing went to select the elite light armored infantry and the carts to be used for formation.The five hundred knights who charged first were naturally slave soldiers.This kind of mission is the same as the mission after Yuchi Gong's death, as long as he is alive, he will have merit.

Lao Lang and Bai Erwa came back, they heard the news.

They both knelt outside Li Yuanxing's room door, asking for only one thing, they wanted to be the leader of the five hundred cavalry.It doesn't matter what a mortal battle or a narrow escape.

Li Yuanxing was having a headache while pressing his temples. The old wolf was a dead-headed bastard.But Bai Erwa, why are you joining in the fun?I want to persuade them, but I don't know how to persuade them. I really want to ask people to pull these two bastards down and beat them hard.

"Old wolf!" Li Yuanxing spoke after thinking twice.

"Here!" The old wolf finally raised his head. Whenever he saw the shallow wound on Li Yuanxing's face, the old wolf felt as if a knife was piercing his heart.

"I'll give you a life-threatening task!" Li Yuanxing said unhurriedly.

The old wolf's body was trembling: "I will die!"

He is really a real person, Li Yuanxing is really full of emotion in his heart.Trying to keep himself calm, he said slowly: "Li Yubao is a surrendered general. This time he dared to lure the Turks into my trap. This is a great achievement. They are probably in the former Turkic army. Such people have merit. So this king doesn't want to see him die, you have a team of thousands to rescue them back!"

"A certain order!" The old wolf kowtowed heavily and retreated.

The matter of sending troops was naturally arranged by someone, and the old wolf had Li Yuanxing's order, so he just went to the barracks to pick people.

After the old wolf walked a few steps, Li Yuanxing suddenly stopped the old wolf: "Old wolf, there is one more task." This time, Li Yuanxing did not speak, but took out his notepad, tore off a piece of paper, and quickly wrote it with a signature pen. After writing a note, he said to the old wolf, "You just need to know about this task."

The old wolf took a look and was stunned.

Li Yuanxing was laughing, and the old wolf suddenly laughed too, and nodded vigorously: "The old wolf takes orders!" After finishing speaking, he ran away laughing.

Now when it comes to Bai Erwa, Li Yuanxing really doesn't know why Bai Erwa is going crazy, but there is really a task that can be given to Bai Erwa.

"Erba! We have spies who should infiltrate the herdsmen, and some may also be in the army. After you cut off the Turkic army, you bring 2000 people. I want those spies to come back alive and those herdsmen to finally surrender honestly."

"What if they don't surrender?" Bai Erwa asked in a daze.

Li Yuanxing looked at Bai Erwa with a half-smile: "What is that around your waist?"

Bai Erwa looked down, took off the belt with both hands and held it in her hands: "It's the knife His Highness gave Erwa!" After finishing speaking, Bai Erwa also reacted: "They won't surrender, Erwa has a knife in his hand!" !"
