Han ride

Chapter 314 Sneak Attack
This Huluke Zhaisang is indeed one of the two generals under Lin Danhan's command. Lin Danhan asked him to garrison the food and grass of Tumutai. Li Xin studied for a long time, but he still couldn't find any loopholes in the defense.But at this time, heavy snow came, and in the early morning, heavy snow appeared in the sky. Li Xin had no choice but to retreat.

Although he has a strategy, he only has an army of [-] and no engineering equipment. When the heavy snow comes, Li Xin really can't find anything to conquer the land with a small price. Mutai's strategy.Moreover, Li Xin is also a character who does not want to waste the lives of soldiers. In this case, he has no choice but to retreat.

The army was walking on the grassland, which was the road leading to Guihua City. Although it was snowing heavily, they could still see the direction clearly in a short time.

"My lord, don't worry. This time we can burn Tuxietu Khan's food and grass. The opponent's army is nearly [-]. People eat horse chews. I don't know how much food and grass they consume every day. Now that the heavy snow is coming, Lin Dan Khan wants It is also extremely difficult to replenish food and grass, presumably, the troops will withdraw soon." Zhang Wu persuaded.

"What General Zhang said is very true. Lord Hou, the news of the attack on Baicheng will surely reach Lin Danhan's ears in the near future. It is impossible for him not to retreat." Shang Kexi also persuaded.

"In spite of this, Lin Danhan can still put all his eggs in one basket and concentrate on dealing with us. Although we have some strength, our foundation is shallow and we cannot fight for a long time. Although there is a lot of food and grass, if Lin Danhan is trapped, you say those little people on the grassland Tribes, will you still follow us?" Li Xin is not worried about Guihua City, which is a rare and powerful city on the grassland. After repairs by Shi Yuanzhi and others, and with sufficient food and grass in the city, it is enough to withstand Lin Dan Khan's invasion.What Li Xin is worried about is the small tribes who submit to him. These guys are all people who follow the wind. They used to submit to him because of their own strength. Once Lin Danhan besieged Guihua City, he sent troops to attack However, these small tribes will not hesitate to switch to Lin Dan Khan, after all, he still has the banner of a descendant of the golden family.Lin Danhan is more accepted by grassland people than Li Xin.No matter what, Li Xin didn't want Lin Danhan to stay on his territory for too long.

"I'm afraid there is only this way now. Wait for Lin Danhan to take the initiative to retreat." Hou Gongji sighed.Hou Rong on one side was wearing a white fox cloak and a red padded jacket underneath, making her look even more attractive. At this moment, she couldn't help shaking her head.The current situation is basically unsolvable.She knew Li Xin's plan, but she had too few troops, and although Guihua City had a lot of soldiers, but the frontal pressure from Lin Danhan was too heavy, Shi Yuan didn't dare to divide the troops.

"It's not my style to take the initiative to retreat." Li Xin said suddenly: "Yuan Ji, what are you talking about today, what are Lin Danhan, Tu Xietu, or that Wu Keshan doing?"

After hearing this, Shang Kexi didn't dare not answer, he said: "Perhaps they are warming up by the fire in the big tent, or they are drinking milk and eating mutton, or they are drinking strong wine from the Central Plains."

"Yes, this day is indeed suitable for doing these things." Li Xin nodded and said, "Tell me, what kind of reaction will Wu Keshan have when we suddenly kill Wu Keshan at this time?"

"Ah!" After hearing this, everyone looked at Li Xin with shocked eyes.

"Master Hou, now that the heavy snow is coming, the general will look at this situation. I'm afraid it won't stop in a short time. In the future, the heavy snow will definitely block the road. Don't say we can't attack, even if we find our way home." Wang Fuchen once came to the desert with a business traveler. Hearing Li Xin's words at this time, he hurriedly stopped him.

"That's right, you think so, and I think other people think so too. Wu Keshan would never have thought that we would attack at this time. Only in this way can we be surprised and unprepared." Li Xin thought for a while and said: "Wu Keshan's army Tunju is at Hongli Temple, which is only [-] miles away from our place, and we can reach it within two days. As for the way, it is difficult to seal the road after two days of heavy snow. And the way back? We just need to go south , will definitely be able to return to Guihua City."

"Don't worry, Lord Hou, even if the road is blocked by heavy snow, this old man can help Lord Hou return to Guihua City." An old voice said.Li Xin looked over, but saw that it was Wang Gong.

"Oh. Could it be that Mr. Wang has a way?" Li Xin asked curiously.

"Lord Hou! I heard that your mount is a dark cloud riding snow. It is a rare famous horse. This horse is smart and must be able to know the way. What's more, the old man has been running outside the Great Wall all year round, and he knows a thing or two about the direction on the grassland. If the master can solve the Horqin army within three days, the old man will be able to let Hou Ye return to Guihua City safely. However, after three days, the heavy snow will definitely cover everything on the grassland. There is no way to help Lord Hou."

"Three days?" Li Xin's eyes flickered. He knew that since Wang Gong said so, there must be a way to do this. The key now is whether he can capture Wu Keshan's army within three days.

"Hou Ye, do it!" Wang Fuchen said loudly: "The last general is willing to be the vanguard." He tried eagerly. He is still serving as a guard commander by Li Xin's side, but he knows that when he returns to Guihua City, He will be brought under Shang Kexi's command.According to Shang Kexi, he will be reused, but if he has no credit, even if Shang Kexi wants to reuse him, others will talk about it, so he needs military merit.

"Is there anyone who doesn't want to?" Li Xin glanced at Hou Gongji, and finally his eyes fell on Hou Rong, and said indifferently: "General Hou, you are a guest army, and you have been ordered by Mr. Chen to help me this time. I, Li Xin, are very grateful, but this attack on Wu Keshan is a near-death situation. I, Li Xin, are gambling with my head. Even if Wu Keshan is defeated, he may freeze to death on the grassland. The general should lead his soldiers out of here! "

"Master Hou was just joking. I, Hou Gong, am extremely incompetent, and I am also a soldier of Ming Dynasty. Since I was ordered by Mr. Chen to support Lord Hou, I will go wherever Lord Hou goes. My Hou family is full of loyalty. Ever since I became a soldier, I never thought that I could live my life peacefully. Since I have become a general, it is my destiny to die on the battlefield." Hou Gongji laughed loudly, he turned and ran to a hill, facing five thousand soldiers. The Ming army shouted loudly: "Soldiers, are you in command?"

"Nonsense, major general, we are men."

"If you don't believe me, go to Yihong Courtyard and find some women to try for us?"

"..."

"Okay, Lord Hou is going to sneak attack Wu Keshan. In this battle, we may have to bury the bones in the grassland. Are you afraid?"

"Kill, kill." After a while of silence, there was a shout of killing from the Ming army phalanx.Most of these Ming soldiers were frontier pawns, and their families lived in the frontier. They hated the grassland Tartars and wished they could be beheaded to death.It's just that since the change of Tumubao, the Ming army has rarely shown off its might on the grassland.But on the grassland, especially Lin Dan Khan invaded the border several times, and I don't know how many soldiers' families died tragically at the hands of the Tartars.Unlike other armies in the Ming Dynasty, the reason why the frontier army was so powerful was that they were forced out, or they were all motivated by hatred.This time following Li Xin to go north, although he suffered a lot, he gained a lot.On the grassland, Li Xin had always relaxed military discipline. These guys didn't know how much benefit they got from burning, killing and looting on the grassland. Now that they heard that they were going to attack others again, they naturally wouldn't quit.

"Okay, I promise that as long as I defeat Wu Keshan this time, I will take half of everything I get, and the rest will belong to the soldiers. For those who died in the battle, I have already regarded your family as my Li Xin's family. Your relatives will definitely receive lifelong support from me, Li Xin, and those who are injured, those who are willing to take the money will get the money, and those who are not willing to take the money, can join my army, and I, Li Xin, will still be responsible to you." Li Xin urged Wuyun stepped on the snow, so he flew up the slope and said loudly with his whip.

"Willing to serve Lord Hou." The [-] soldiers were ecstatic when they heard the words, and they had already forgotten all the fatigue and cold on their bodies. They wished they could kill Wu Keshan right now and obtain the massive gold and silver treasures inside.Thinking that Wu Keshan has not withdrawn his troops until now, it is enough to show how much material he has carried.Although it is only half, it is also an astronomical figure.

"The little thief is really good at bewitching." Hou Rong saw it clearly, and couldn't help but snorted coldly.She had rarely seen such morale.I don't know what ability Li Xin has, even the soldiers of the imperial court use it for him.At this time, Hou Rong also had to admire Li Xin's strength.

"General Hou, let our wounded soldiers return to Huacheng together with Ms. Hou!" Li Xin glanced at Hou Rong in the crowd. .Such a beautiful girl, even Li Xin was moved, but at this moment, he undoubtedly didn't have time to think about it.

"This?" Hou Gongji hesitated for a moment, but nodded. In the next two days, there will be the most important moment, and there will be many crises. It is indeed not suitable for a woman to stay here.

Li Xin didn't know how Hou Gongji persuaded Hou Rong to leave, but before leaving, the look in Hou Rong's eyes made Li Xin speechless, and Li Xin didn't have time to think about what was hidden inside. What he was thinking about now was Wu Keshan's army at Hongli Temple two hundred miles away. Although he wanted to sneak attack the opponent, but the opponent had tens of thousands of people, no one knew the final outcome of the war, and he could only obey the destiny.This battle was probably Li Xin's most uncertain battle, and he had to fight it.
