Horse on the World

Chapter 507 Just Let Her Kneel There
Li Qing stood on the edge of the Tuojiang River, looking at the frozen Tuojiang River. Tang Hu, Iron Leopard, and Chen Zeyue were by his side. Since Nuoqi Abe's rebellion, they have traveled nearly a hundred miles from Mogan Mountain along the Tuojiang River. , Around them, more and more soldiers and horses gathered. In the past few days, the small-scale sentinel battles have changed from the first few days to the current ones, and more and more information piled up Li Qing's desk.

Tang Hu and the others felt a little heavy in their hearts, and they didn't know how to get out of the predicament in front of them.Li Qing took a few steps, and suddenly jumped onto the ice surface of the Tuojiang River, which shocked several generals.But then I remembered that the current ice on the Tuojiang River might be more than a meter deep, let alone Li Qing's weight of more than a hundred catties, even if thousands of troops stepped on the ice at this time, they were safe and sound.

"How many enemies have gathered around us?" Li Qing stood on the ice and asked with his head raised.

"Marshal, according to the information brought back by the scouts, I'm afraid it's at least more than 2 now." Chen Zeyue said worriedly. "And they are all the most elite troops of the Zeng Lu Er Clan. On our right is the core force of the Lu Fengchun family. There are two cavalry battalions with a total of more than [-] people, the Xuanwu battalion and the Zhuque battalion. In addition, we are very worried It is the two battalions of Hanwei and Huwei in Nuoqia. These four battalions with more than [-] cavalry are the biggest threat to us. On the left side of us, across the Tuojiang River, is the core combatant of the Zeng family who was just transferred from Liaozhou. Li, Jinghai Battalion, and Zhenliao Battalion, although these two battalions are infantry, they are extremely well-equipped and fully staffed with more than [-] people. Now they are taken out too. As for the other troops, most of them were from Zeng Yifan's defense of Quanying's line of defense, although they have been battle-hardened for a long time, they are inferior to the above-mentioned several troops."

Li Qing chuckled, "It's really desperate. It seems that they also know that if I let Li Qing escape this time, they will not have a good life in their life. All the money at the bottom of the box has been taken out. "

Tang Hu snorted and said, "Marshal, of course we can break out of the siege, don't look at them all shouting about elites, but in front of our personal guards, they are still chickens and dogs."

After a pause, he said again: "Marshal, I don't understand something?"

Li Qingchi smiled, "Aha, our General Tang has also begun to think, congratulations, what do you not understand?"

"Marshal, the enemy's encirclement situation is not very tight yet, why don't we take this opportunity to break out? Now that we are moving slowly, isn't it just the right time to mobilize troops for the enemy and surround them tightly?"

Li Qing nodded. Tang Hu can think of this question, it seems that he has grown up, "You are right, why don't I take the opportunity to break through? Because they deliberately made this phenomenon for us to see, and it seems to be imprecise. The encirclement is a trap. How many soldiers and horses have gathered in Shenzhou now? The Zeng and Lu armies probably gathered at least nearly 20 people. They want us to consume our troops in the continuous breakout? On the periphery of this circle, there are still There is a bigger circle. How many people do we have, more than [-] people, even if it is a nail, how many nails can it drive?"

"Then there is no way to go on like this. We can't delay it for long."

"Wait a minute, time is against us, but they are also very worried. Although I don't have reinforcements here, and Dingzhou also has internal troubles, we still have a place where we can deal a fatal blow to Liaozhou."

Chen Zeyue's eyes lit up: "Anshun Port!"

A gleam of coolness flashed in Li Qing's eyes, "That's right, Anshun Port!"

After walking on the ice for a while, Li Qing smiled suddenly: "Tian Feng played very well on the outside, do you know how he is doing in Shenzhou now?"

Several people shook their heads, Tian Feng's information on the periphery has only been transmitted in the past two days, they only know that Tian Feng has won several battles in a row, tore a big hole in the enemies surrounding him, and is striding towards the land He marched into the city, seeking to join Lu Dabing there.

"Burn it all, kill it all, steal it all!" Li Qing said a few words from between his teeth.

"This, this is a violation of Dingzhou military discipline." Chen Zeyue said in surprise. As the former chief instructor of Dingzhou Military Academy, Dingzhou military discipline and military regulations were deeply reflected in his bones.

Li Qing looked up to the sky and laughed loudly, "Zeyue, you are right, this is indeed a violation of military regulations, but I have to say that this is a good move by Tian Feng at the moment, and even in the near future. You remember, when our rules become the chains that bind us, we must dare to break them bravely, different times have different rules, don’t cling to one idea, learn and apply it flexibly, and adapt to local conditions.”

Li Qing still has some things to say. As a coach, the meaning of some words has to be figured out by his subordinates. It is a foregone conclusion that Dingzhou will lose all the interests in Dongfang. As far as it is concerned, it will only be beneficial, Mrs. Zeng, heh, Li Qing sneered in his heart, even if I leave, you don't want to be the master of this land anymore.

"I've been thinking about a question for the past few days!" Li Qing looked at Chen Zeyue, "Zeyue, you can also help me refer."

"Speak, Commander!"

"Tell me, Nuoqia's [-] elites attacked Lu Dabing's red cavalry. Why did Lu Dabing get rid of the Bai cavalry with such a small loss? I have been a little puzzled for a long time. It is because the Bai people's combat power suddenly dropped , or Nuo Qia's command suddenly had a big problem, or Lu Dabing suddenly possessed by the gods, as if God helped?" Li Qing stopped in his tracks.

Chen Zeyue shook his head, "I don't understand this either, Commander, there are many accidental factors on the battlefield, they are unpredictable and uncontrollable."

Li Qing shook his head: "The Nuobu rebellion was premeditated, not a temporary idea. With Nuoqia's talent, he must have thought of all kinds of problems and made corresponding plans, but the battle process brought back by the messenger is obviously not that good. It's the same thing, tell me, is this battle not directed by Nuoqia? Or what happened to Nuoqia?" Li Qing said to himself.

The three accompanying people were startled, they hadn't thought about this question.

"Is there a well salt mine in Tongcheng, which we captured a few days ago?" Chen Zeyue was still thinking about Li Qing's words, but Li Qing had suddenly changed the subject.

Seeing that Chen Zeyue didn't react, Iron Leopard quickly picked it up, "Yes, Commander, but the salt workers over there heard that our army had arrived, so they ran almost there. The well salt has hundreds of thousands of catties. It can be ignored, these salts were worth some money in the past, but now, it’s useless.”

Li Qing chuckled, "Maybe it's useful too!"

Several people were stunned, what's the use of salt at this moment, and it can't be eaten as a meal.

They walked up the glacier all the way, and while talking, Li Qing jumped up from time to time and kicked a few times on the ice.

"Marshal, Marshal!" A personal guard ran from the direction of Daying and caught up with the four of them.

"What's the matter?" Iron Leopard greeted him.

"General Tie, Director Qingfeng is here!" The personal guard saw Li Qing, and whispered to Tie Bao.Iron Leopard was stunned, and glanced at Li Qing, but saw that the commander-in-chief seemed not to have heard, and was still observing the ice surface intently, as if a flower suddenly bloomed on the ice surface.

Iron Leopard nodded, "You go first, I understand."

The personal guard lowered his voice, "But, General Tie, Director Qingfeng is kneeling outside the commander's camp."

"What did you say, kneeling outside the tent of the Chinese army?" Iron Leopard opened his eyes wide.

The personal guard nodded, "Yes, after entering the camp, we just knelt there without saying a word, and we didn't dare to go up and ask!"

Iron Leopard thought for a moment, then waved his hand, "Understood, you go first!"

After the guards left, Iron Leopard walked up to Li Qing. Before he could speak, Li Qing said to Iron Leopard, "Leopard, go back to the camp and get a fishing rod. The ice here is a little thinner. We can dig through the ice. Catch a few fish here, let's cook a pot of fish soup to try something new at night."

Iron Leopard's face froze, he was stunned for a while, and then whispered: "Commander, Director Qingfeng is here, and he is kneeling outside the tent of the Chinese army!"

Li Qing casually said: "Let her kneel there and go find the fishing rod."

Looking at the commander's calm face, Iron Leopard lowered his head, knowing that Director Qing had touched the commander's scales this time, and he really didn't know how to end this matter, so he agreed, turned around and turned to the commander. camp ran.On the other side, Li Qing had already greeted Tang Hu and Chen Zeyue, pulled out his waist knife, and happily chiseled an ice cave there.

Outside the tent of the Chinese army, amidst the thick snow, Qingfeng closed her eyes and knelt there upright. Behind her, Wang Qi, Han Renjie, etc. looked dignified, standing on both sides, several personal guards outside the tent of the Chinese army Although he stood up straight, his eyes were full of confusion, and he didn't know how to deal with the matter in front of him.Seeing the iron leopard rushing back, they were all relieved.

Iron Leopard stretched out his hand to summon a guard, and whispered some instructions. The guard showed surprise, but after Iron Leopard glared at him, he immediately turned around and ran away.

Iron Leopard turned around and walked in front of Qingfeng, bowed his hands and bowed, "I've seen the director!"

Qingfeng didn't open his eyes, but just nodded slightly. "Where's the general?"

Iron Leopard was slightly embarrassed, and said in a low voice: "The commander-in-chief said he wants to fish on the Tuojiang River, so let me come back and find the fishing rod!"

"Then you go!" Qingfeng's voice was very calm.

Iron Leopard hesitated for a while, since the commander told Qingfeng to kneel here, he didn't dare to ask Qingfeng to get up, so he turned around and ordered: "Take out the brazier from the big tent and put it next to the director."

As soon as he said this, the faces of Wang Qi and Han Renjie behind Qingfeng turned even paler. The commander's attitude was obvious, and it was probably the iron leopard's friendly sponsorship to set up a brazier.

"Thank you General Tie, the brazier is no longer needed!" Qingfeng opened his eyes, looked at Iron Leopard and smiled.

Iron Leopard didn't know what to say, just in a moment of embarrassment, the previous guard had found a fishing rod, Iron Leopard quickly took it, and ran away in a hurry.
