Wentang

Chapter 515 Circle and Tinder

On Black Camel Mountain, with the cooperation of Ashina Simo, Wanqi easily captured Jieli's temporary camp in Mayi, and captured countless Turkic nobles, cattle, horses and livestock.

However, it has to be said that Xieli still has some loyal people. Even though they knew that they would die, many Turkic people still violently resisted and set fire to the forage tents and so on.

Although the riot was quickly suppressed, the fire could no longer be extinguished, and Niu Jinda's plan to quietly take over the camp fell through.

"Dingfang, I can't rest assured that the general manager's troops are insufficient. I'm going to take half of the troops back to have a look. I will leave the task of guarding the Turks to you."

Niu Jinda didn't have much joy on his face when he took down the camp at the lowest cost. He called Su Dingfang over and said:
"If, I mean, if the battle ahead is unfavorable, you will lead the rest of the people to find a way to go home and keep the flame of my Wanqi."

Su Dingfang's face was also very solemn, and he said: "I'll go. A Shi... the king of Heshun County is noble and only you can force him to restrain him. I'm afraid he will have other thoughts after you leave."

"This..." Niu Jinda also hesitated.

Although Ashina Simo voluntarily surrendered, he was not trusted, at least for now Niu Jinda and others would not believe him.In this case, sufficient manpower must be left to guard them.

And in view of his status as King Shunjun, the status of the general who stayed behind must be high enough.

Su Dingfang's position is only to be the captain of Zhechong, which is definitely not enough. Niu Jinda, as Li Shimin's confidant in the hidden residence and general Wanqi, barely has that qualification.

"You have to know that it is very dangerous to go to the front line, and it is very likely..."

"I've been prepared for this since the day I joined the army. Besides, the shroud of horse leather is the best home for my generation of soldiers." Su Dingfang said freely.

Niu Jinda stared at him closely for a while, as if he wanted to keep his appearance firmly in his heart, and then said: "Okay, I'll wait to celebrate your achievements."

Su Dingfang didn't say much, turned around and summoned his army to rush to the front line at full speed.

The time was urgent and there was no time to save horsepower, so I changed horses along the way without changing people, and finally approached the battlefield near noon.

"Boom boom boom..."

The roar of cannons and the sound of fighting from the front can be clearly heard even if it is far away.

"Rest in place for a quarter of an hour. Everyone hurry up to replenish food and water. Junmai, take someone to observe the situation on the front line." Although he was very anxious, Su Dingfang did not lose his footing, and arranged tasks in an orderly manner.

Xi Jun agreed and took people to observe the battle situation.

After arranging the task, Su Dingfang also took off his tableware and food from the pack horse next to him.

The tableware is a pair of chopsticks, a fork, two wooden bowls, one large and one small, and a water bag sewn with two layers of sheepskin to keep warm.

The food is also specially made, fried noodles and oil cakes wrapped in oil paper, pickled pickles, milk bumps made of cow and goat milk, tea powder... It can be said to be very rich.

The key is that these foods have a particularly long shelf life, and they will not go bad if they are carried on the body for ten days and half a month.But correspondingly, the production is more troublesome, and now only Wanqi is equipped with this kind of food in the whole army.

Put a little fried noodles in a large bowl, brew it into a soup with the hot water in the water bag, take a sip, it tastes good, and it's a bit salty.Then he took out the oil cake and ate the pickles.

The troublesome meal was solved quickly and comfortably in this way, which Su Dingfang never dared to think about before.

The longer he stayed in Wanqi and the more he got in touch with Qingshuihou, the more Su Dingfang was impressed by his whimsical ideas.

As soon as I finished eating here, Xi Junmai rushed over and said anxiously: "The captain's situation is not good, and the general manager may not be able to hold on there."

"Hiss..." Su Dingfang took a deep breath, but he didn't expect the situation to develop in the worst direction, so he quickly said, "Quickly tell me what's going on over there."

Xi Junmai quickly described the details of the battlefield.

The Chinese army has the advantage to suppress the Turkic people, but the two wings can no longer hold on because of the gap in numbers. Once the two wings are broken through, the Tang army will be defeated.

Although very anxious, Su Dingfang did not rush to support, but asked: "You have seen the situation on the battlefield with your own eyes, how do you think we can restore the situation?"

"Go straight to Huanglong." Xi Junmai said without hesitation: "The Turkic Central Army has suffered heavy casualties under the artillery fire and is on the verge of collapse. Now it is the last straw."

"If we lead troops to attack Xieli from behind at this time, it will inevitably cause turmoil. And once there is turmoil in the rear army, the Turkic Central Army, which does not know the specific situation, will inevitably collapse."

"As the saying goes, defeat is like a mountain. Once the Chinese army collapses, it will affect the whole army. When the time comes, the victory and defeat will naturally reverse."

Su Dingfang couldn't help nodding his head and said: "Go straight to Huanglong, okay, just follow what Junmai said."

Then he ordered everyone to prepare for the battle.

"Ma Datou." Su Dingfang called his vanguard officer over again.

"Do you remember what the Turkic wolf flag looked like?"

Ma Datou gnawed on the pancake and said, "Remember, that thing is a symbol of Xieli, how could I not remember it."

"Okay, then we will set up a piercing formation, and your vanguard battalion will be the spearhead. Remember, just charge to the wolf flag, and don't miss it." Su Dingfang ordered.

"Captain, don't worry, my old horse will never let you down when you charge into battle." When he heard that he was the spearhead, Ma Datou was so excited that he slapped his chest loudly.

"It's because I believe in you that I entrust you with such an important task. Eat and drink well, and don't run out of strength later." Su Dingfang said.

When Ma Datou walked away, Su Dingfang thought for a while and said to Xi Junmai: "Junmai, why don't you reconnaissance battalion take part in this battle?"

When Xi Junmai heard it, he was unwilling, and said loudly, "Why? I can't bear to let Ma Datou be the target, but now he says that we are not allowed to participate in the battle. Are you looking down on my reconnaissance battalion?"

"You know that's not the case. In this battle, there are nine deaths. We must leave a seed for hundreds of riders and thousands of riders." Su Dingfang said seriously.

Someone said that the world is composed of countless circles, and there can be seven or eight groups in the dormitory of four people.Although this is an exaggeration, there is some truth to it.

There are countless circles within Wanqi.

The earliest Baiqisi was a circle, and Baiqisi was further divided into Yuancong forbidden army circle, foreign army circle and so on.After that, the Qianqi circle was a big circle, and the Wanqi circle became even bigger and more numerous.

For the earliest and most core members such as Su Dingfang, Jing Hengyan, and Xi Junmai, Baiqisi and Qianqi are their core.

Wanqi is just one level behind.

So at the beginning Niu Jinda said that he would give Wanqi a kindling, but now Su Dingfang said that he would leave a kindling for Baiqisi Qianqi.

"Isn't there Jing Hengyan? It's fine to transfer him back when the time comes." Xi Junmai retorted.

"As you know, Hengyan's ability is not enough to take on this great task. Originally, Zhengze was the most suitable for this position, but now he has gone to the navy to serve as a commander and it is impossible to come back. This task can only be entrusted to you." Su Dingfang persuaded.

"I'm also a rough person. I only know that fighting will not involve intrigue. Otherwise, if you stay, I will lead the charge." Xi Jun bought.

"Nonsense, if I keep the whole Wanqi, it will become a joke. Even if I win, I will have no face to stay in the army." Su Dingfang said angrily:

"Don't say any more, the matter is settled like this. Take your reconnaissance battalion to protect our rear."

　Xia Harvest and Xia Bo are finally done, and the update will resume tomorrow.
