Zhizhang Datang

Chapter 242 tug of war

It was almost time, and Lin Sen quickly gathered his men. Those who fled back were not many, so it didn't matter. If they went back to spread the message of the Tang army's strength, maybe they could also hit the morale of the Turkic army.

There are still some Turkic prisoners of war who have been captured alive. It is good to seize the time to conduct a surprise interrogation first. It is also good to learn more about the enemy's movements.

It can be seen from this battle that those who can be scouts of the army are indeed good players. These Turkic scouts still chose to fight to the death even though they suffered heavy casualties in the first round of duel. Kung fu is indeed well-deserved.

However, according to the situation learned from the prisoners of war, the morale of the Turkic army itself is not too high, mainly because of their internal battles, which made these people a little panicked and unable to settle down.

While thinking, Lin Sen didn't forget to arrange for someone to report to the back, and at the same time asked his subordinates to take a rest and get some food and drink to replenish their energy.

Now that we have already met the Turkic scouts, it means that the enemy's main force will not be too far away, and we will definitely continue to investigate the details of the enemy later.

As a result, when Lin Sen and the others packed up and were about to set off again, Xue Wanche and some vanguard troops had already caught up behind them, and briefly explained the situation. After getting permission, Lin Sen and the others still set off again.

After walking carefully for dozens of miles, only a few dozen miles away from Shuofang City, Lin Sen and the others were blocked again as expected, which indicated that they had reached the periphery of the Turkic army. It's the sentinel of the camp.

Apart from anything else, Lin Sen and the others were covered by a rain of arrows. Before the enemy gathered, they circled around the Turkic camp as much as possible, and kept fighting with the gradually increasing number of enemies while running.

After almost figuring out the real situation of the enemy, Lin Sen quickly turned around and ran away. Thousands of Turkic troops gathered behind Nima, ready to come and eat them.

This is not the time to be a hero. Sending back the detected information in time is the first task of the scouts. If you continue to entangle with those mad dog-like rangers, you may not be able to go back.

It wasn't until Lin Sen and the others and Xue Wanjun's vanguard army joined up, and the thousands of Turkic cavalry who had been chasing after them showed off their might before the formation, and then slowly retreated.

Lin Sen didn't rush out to fight with those people impulsively. His subordinates used up too much physical strength while running and killing. After all, there are very few people like him with almost unlimited physical strength. Already showing signs of fatigue, it can be seen that their running today is really exhausting.

At this time, running out to fight with others will not only fail to achieve the purpose of destroying the morale of the enemy, but may cause the lives of the subordinates to die in vain.

"General Chai ordered me to find a suitable place to camp and wait for the army to arrive before making any calculations.

Your performance is very good, I will go to General Chai to ask for credit for you, let's rest now, and it will be your turn to go out to check tomorrow. "Xue Wanjun said in front of all his subordinates and generals, he couldn't help but praise Lin Sen and the others.

Probably because of his younger brother's relationship, this strong general also showed some kindness towards Lin Sen on a rare occasion.

All the generals agreed with a loud bang. In addition to arranging the necessary troops to guard, the other teams began to look for a suitable camping place, and by the way, cleared away the surrounding enemy scouts who might be spying.

The final location was determined by Xue Wanjun, and the most important construction of the camp was of course the auxiliary soldiers.

Opening roads across mountains and building bridges when encountering waters is also one of the important tasks of the vanguard troops. They are also very familiar with this task, and it didn't take long for a strong camp to be built.

Horses, trenches and other things that hinder the enemy are all available. Even the craftsmen in the army have begun to assemble bed crossbows and made some trebuchets.These big guys can not only be used when attacking the city, but they are also very suitable for defending the camp.

After a rare peaceful sleep in the camp, Lin Sen and the others set out again with renewed energy. The Turkic camp was there, and the goal this time was much clearer.

However, the opponent also frantically wanted to get closer to the Tang army camp. Lin Sen and the others had to fight the Turkic rangers several times, and each of them suffered casualties. Of course, Lin Sen's subordinates were less injured.

It's just that they haven't been able to get the information they want, and there are more and more rangers from the Turkic side who come to investigate, and there are even more small groups of small teams who came over secretly.

It became more and more difficult for Lin Sen and the others to intercept and kill. In the end, some cavalry troops had to be dispatched from the camp to engage in a direct confrontation with the opponent in order to block the opponent.

Lin Sen's subordinates inevitably suffered a lot of attrition, that is, relying on the protection of their respective generals, those guards rarely survived, but without Lin Sen's enviable and powerful armor, Hanging lottery is always indispensable.

Especially for those who were on the battlefield for the first time like Lin Sen, who lacked experience and didn't have Lin Sen's super fast reaction speed, they all suffered.

They started to fight, and when their brains became hot, they couldn't help but sneak into the enemy's crowd. If Lin Sen hadn't led rescuers in time to snatch them out of the enemy's siege, a few of them might have already died. Died on the battlefield.

Except for Xi Weizhong and the others, the generals under Lin Sen's subordinates have not yet lost their staff. The generals brought by the guards have more or less died for the country.

Of course, the results they have achieved are quite rich. As of now, Lin Sen and his group of guards are definitely the group with the highest military exploits in the entire army.

Even so, Lin Sen was somewhat dissatisfied, because it was becoming more and more difficult to detect the situation on the enemy's side, and he had to know whether the enemy had any intention of dividing troops.

It's a pity that there are no falcons that can detect the enemy's situation, or something like a reconnaissance plane, so one guy can have a panoramic view of the enemy's situation.

However, this kind of tug-of-war didn't last too long. A sudden heavy snow covered the entire Xiazhou and temporarily blocked the eyes of the two armies from investigating each other.

But Lin Sen and the others didn't relax, because Lin Sen felt that the real decisive moment might come soon.So even if they return to the camp for the time being, they are ready to attack at any time.

Chai Shao, who had been stationed in the camp a long time ago, also summoned all the generals and was discussing the next countermeasures.
