Early Tang Dynasty: forge ahead

Chapter 219 Contradictions
Boom da, boom da, boom da!

The rapid sound of hooves sounded.

Sijie Yingcai arrived at the Lingzhou Governor's Mansion with some panic.

"Grand Governor, Mr. Chen!"

Looking at Huang Heshou and Chen Qingsi, Sijie Yingcai looked a little panicked and said, "Oh no, Bi Su from the Yaoluoge tribe killed Porun, the governor of Hanhai, and led Tongluo, Huitong, and Gulun Wugusi's four troops are rushing towards Lingzhou."

Sijie enemy law thought that there was only one part of Tongluo, and he was a little scornful of it.

But when he learned that the five powerful coalition forces from Mobei were coming, he immediately gave up and asked his son to come for help.

Sijie Yingcai was panting like an ox, and he came rushing here with three horses and one person, not daring to rest or delay for a moment.

"Great!"

Huang Heshou couldn't help shouting, his eyes filled with excitement.

He is not afraid that there are not enough enemies, but he is afraid that there are not enough enemies for him to defeat, so that he will not be able to make meritorious deeds.

Chen Qingsi frowned slightly. Lingzhou was preparing for war these days, and he also saw some clues.

Huang Heshou's intention to avenge his crimes and make meritorious deeds was too obvious. He said that he would follow his own lead in everything, but in fact he had no intention of decentralizing power at all.His idea was to share the credit and ask him not to write bad things about Li Zhi when he was explaining the matter to Li Zhi, so that he could have the opportunity to make up for his mistakes.

Chen Qingsi knew that this was not a good sign. He did not know much about the battlefield, but he could come into contact with some military common sense in daily life.

After all, "The Art of War" is not just a book that teaches people how to fight, it can be used in many aspects.

Huang Heshou's mentality is a taboo for doing anything at any time.

Now it depends on whether he can be persuaded. If he can be persuaded, even better. If he can't be persuaded, he can only use his trump card.

The deposed envoy has the power to reach Tianting directly, and all the stations in the world must cooperate.Able to send the fastest urgent letter, directly skipping the group of prime ministers and delivering it to Li Zhi.

This is a last resort.

Chen Qingsi asked: "Do you know how many soldiers and horses the other party has?"

Sijie Yingcai said: "It's overwhelming. I don't know how many soldiers and horses there are, but based on the strength of the five divisions, there must be at least [-] soldiers."

"fifty thousand!"

Chen Qingsi's heart trembled. Lingxia originally had about [-] frontier troops, but Su Dingfang mobilized [-] for the western expedition. After deducting the free pay, there were only [-] left.

Six thousand versus fifty thousand, almost one to ten.

This battle is not easy to fight.

The smile on Chen Qingsi's face did not diminish, and she said to Huang Heshou with a bit of complacency: "How about Governor Huang? I know that since the rebels have set their sights on Sijiebu, even if Mobei can't all reach an agreement, , and also won over many tribes."

Huang Heshou did not understand Chen Qingsi's deep meaning, but he now needed Chen Qingsi to say good things to him in front of Li Zhi. It was also because of this that he was willing to condescend to praise Chen Qingsi and say that he would follow his lead.

How could a veteran general who had experienced hundreds of battles hand over command to a scholar who had never been in a battle?
Just to share the credit and please.

Huang Heshou also thought that Chen Qingsi had the bad habit of boasting that most scholars like to boast, and felt that he was showing off, so he cooperated and said: "Mr. Chen's clever calculations are comparable to those of Zhang Zifang and Prime Minister Zhuge!"

If you like to brag and show off, then give it a thumbs up.

Chen Qingsi's face was slightly red, and she was not afraid of being blown away.Fortunately, Sijie Yingcai didn't know the status of Zhang Liang and Zhuge Liang in the hearts of Chinese sons. He was proficient in Chinese culture and knew that these two people were top figures. He could tell a lot about their deeds, but he didn't know much about them. The meaning behind it.

But my originally uneasy heart was relieved.

"It turns out that all of this was what Mr. expected."

The talented people in Sijie admire the culture of the Central Plains, and they must have a heart of admiration for Chen Qingsi, who stands at the pinnacle of "culture".

"Go back and tell your father that I will go to Sijiebu in a few days to discuss with him the enemy."

When Huang Heshou heard that Chen Qingsi had made his own decision, he felt a little unhappy on his face. He thought it would not be in the way, so he didn't say much. He just said: "I have heard that the warriors of the Sijie tribe are very brave. It is great that I can fight side by side with the warriors of your tribe this time." What a blessing. A young man like me dares to tease a tiger's beard."

Sijie Yingcai smiled and bowed and left.

After waiting for Sijie Yingcai to leave, Chen Qingsi said: "Captain Huang, everyone knows how the imperial court treats its enemies. The Mobei bandits must have come here with all their might. They are numerous, they are in the spotlight, and they are full of vigor. Our army is small, so we might as well Stay away from the edge for now, wait for the time to come, and look for opportunities to fight."

Huang Heshou laughed loudly: "Sir, I have never experienced a battle, and I don't know the ways on the battlefield. It seems that there are fifty thousand thieves, and they are coming in a menacing way, but in my opinion, they are just a mob. Do you know the most important thing on the battlefield, sir?" What is it?"

Chen Qingsi didn't answer.

Huang Heshou's tough attitude was obviously contrary to what he said, and there was no point in fighting him pointlessly.

Huang Heshou asked himself and answered: "It's armor, so in our dynasty, swords, spears and clubs are not allowed, but armor is strictly forbidden to be kept privately. Xu Kai dared to sell tens of thousands of kilograms of iron and iron, and hundreds of swords and guns to the outside world, but he did not dare to sell it privately. A pair of armor. The leather armor worn by the grassland people is like paper, but our armor can withstand most attacks. Therefore, in front of our army, regardless of their number, two, five, or ten times, they are like grass and grass. "

Huang Heshou said: "Sir, do you know that in the sixth year of Yonghui's reign, there was the Battle of Yingsochuan? There were 2 Western Turks, and General Su Dingfang of the Youtun Guard had only 500 men. He directly broke the formation and covered up the enemy for [-] miles. Now I have [-] soldiers. , and there is also the Si Jie Department to help out, why do you need to temporarily avoid the sharp edge against a mere fifty thousand bastards? If you tell me, it won't make people laugh, and lose the prestige of our army."

Huang Heshou's tone was full of pride.

Chen Qingsi was even speechless.

I have to admit that at this time, when facing any enemy, regardless of their number, the Tang Army would show contempt and crush them like ants.

Because of this tough attitude engraved in his bones, the Tang army fought many incredible battles with gods during this period.

It seems that there is no word fear in the dictionary of the Tang Army, and the person leading the charge is always a general-level figure wearing Mingguang armor and attacking enemies from all directions. I have the ability to do it here.

The same is obviously true for Huang Heshou.

Chen Qingsi was not sure whether Huang Heshou could cover up the [-] incoming bandit soldiers, but he was unwilling to bet on this probability.

Huang Heshou can bear the price of failure.

Chen Qingsi couldn't bear it.

For a person like Huang Heshou, he doesn't care about his own life or death. If he wins the battle, his name will go down in history. Huang Heshou is not inferior to his father, he is awesome.He lost the fight and had a scar as big as a bowl, but 18 years later he was a good man again.

As for what will happen after losing, whether the people of Lingzhou will be robbed and slaughtered has nothing to do with him.

Chen Qingsi cannot let the people of Lingzhou fall into this kind of game.

"The enemy's situation is unknown, and I do not agree to a hasty attack!"

Chen Qingsi did not give in.
