v8 Chapter 31: Astonishing changes in backwaters (4)

Zhang Zai gave a sly smile, "But when I stitched the wound, I stabbed a plum pattern. You will live with this plum flower in the future, and you will not lose it forever."

The two dogs jumped up instantly, trembling with anger, pointing at Zhang Zai, "You have made me a big man, with a plum blossom all my life ?!"

Tattoos have become quite popular now. Later Zhou Taizu Guo Wei's nickname Guo Queer came from tattoos. It's just that everyone usually wears a wolf, tiger and leopard, which is used to set off their own might.

There are such officers and soldiers in the army, from time to time to show them off.

As long as the two dogs think about it, when everyone shows off their fierce tigers in the future, they hide in a plum blossom and tremble, and they can't wait to be killed on the elm.

Seeing that Ergouzi was about to shed tears, Zhang Zai laughed and was very open: "Look at you, I'll slap you!"

After Yeludi Rugu took Sijin to Yuguan, the Khitan army outside the north exit has not attacked the city for many days. Not only that, they are also strengthening the camp, raising cattle and sheep in captivity, as if they are preparing to fight a protracted battle. Endlessly.

In this regard, no matter whether they are soldiers of Ergouzi or Confucian students like Zhang Zai, they don't have much feeling. If they insist, they will be happy. Because this shows that their defensive battle has achieved phased victory, the Khitan barbarians dare not come up easily.

Therefore, Zhang Zai, a half-doctor and a wounded soldier like Ergouzi, had the opportunity to show his skills and quietly heal the wounded at the barracks.

Not only the North Exit, but the Khitan Army outside Juyongguan and Yuguan, have also either slowed down the offensive, or simply stopped attacking the city, and started to consolidate the camp to prevent the Tang army from attacking.

The fierce northern border war has become extremely quiet and treacherous within a few days.

As the commander in the north, Li Maozhen received a military order from Li Yan, which allowed her to look for opportunities to fight against the Khitan army without prejudice while ensuring that the defense line would not be poor.

After receiving the military order, Li Maozhen groaned for a long time.

Unlike ordinary generals, she certainly knows what the dynasty is facing now. The smoke from Hexi and Shu has already been ignited, and the monks in the north have been partially transferred. In such a situation, it is of extraordinary significance to take the initiative to seek results. .

What Li Yan wanted was not the number of Khitan soldiers beheaded and the number of Khitan troops defeated, but the force.

Yelua Baoji contracted the front and reinforced the battalion's stance to defend, apparently waiting to return to the Tang Dynasty and Nanzhao. If the dynasty only defended and countered these two aspects, it was no doubt that Yeluabaoji took his nose away.

If this is the case, the Khitan army that has stopped may be able to launch another onslaught after the break, exerting strong pressure on the northern border, and allow the monks of the dynasty to be stretched, and even break through the northern border with the support of Huihu and Nanzhao. Line of defense.

Only by taking the initiative to win the battle quickly and accurately can Yale Abao get confused about Li Zhi's intentions and cannot judge Li Zhi's layout. At the same time, he will inspire the morale of Tang soldiers in the north, and will also inspire the central people. purpose.

What Li Maozhen has to consider now is who is sent to attack, which army to send, and from which position.

There is no doubt that the answers to these three questions are not easy to find. Once you choose to make a mistake, lose the attack, and be defeated by Khitan, the situation will become very serious.

If the Spike Rider is still alive, Li Maozhen will not be upset, they are definitely the only target for this strategy. It is a pity that there are no longer the Spike Rider.

Among the Changan embargoes, in addition to the Langfang Army, there is another army that mainly focuses on fine riding, which is the Snapdragon.

It ’s just that the Xiao Cavalry Army is too late, and it is still running. Although the combat power is not weak, it is also relative to the Fan Zhen Army. If it is compared with the abdominal and central units of the old embargo and Khitan Army, it is still Some gaps.

"Hey Li, this is really a problem."

Li Maozhen grabbed his hair, and was a little bit anxious. "This military strategy has been described by him as extremely important. It seems that if it is not successfully implemented, a comprehensive victory will not come ..."

The irritable Qi King scratched his ears and scratched his cheeks, anxious to lead an elite himself to kill the Great Wall.

Of course, this is not feasible. In addition to commanding battles in Youzhou, the most important thing is to check and balance the Yeluabao aircraft. Otherwise, with the combat power of the Yeluabao aircraft, it is possible to cause a huge disaster to the Tang army at any time.

Across the northern border, there are many strong generals, but few can share the pressure for King Qi. Zhao Bingkun is actually one, just let him lead the army to fight, if there is a slight mistake, then I am so sorry for the soldiers, which may cause unnecessary trouble.

After all, Zhao Nianci was dead.

King Qi, thinking hard for a long time, finally went to Yunzhou.

When the fighting in Juyongguan, Beikou and Yuguan was fierce, Yunzhou was like Taoyuan Wonderland and stayed away.

After the battle of Luoyankou ended, after Yeluzianiechi attacked Yunzhou, there was no war. Therefore, the General of the Spike Tooth, who stood neatly on the city head and looked north by the sword, still could not find the opportunity to avenge his death.

In addition to the five thousand fine horsemen, the Wolffang Army has only 30,000 infantry soldiers. Without good fighters, the infantry soldiers cannot naturally venture into the grasslands. If the enemy army does not come to attack, it is useless to have a brave army.

When King Qi flew into the city, he saw the familiar figure of Shangguan Qingcheng, and his eyes were full of strangeness and surprise.

The head of the Wolffang Army general had lost weight, and the armor that was next to him seemed to hang on the dead bone.

Li Maozhen had not spoken yet, and Shangguan Qingcheng had already looked at her.

With only one glance, Li Maozhen couldn't help feeling shocked.

Those eyes still had sharp eyes.

Sharper than any swordman in the world.

With her thin cheeks, these eyes seemed a little grim.

Now, these eyes saw Li Maozhen, like a lit star, full of indescribable brilliance.

Li Maozhen understood this glory.

When Li Yan sent her to fight in Hexi, she had this glory in her eyes.

"Looks like you already know my intention." Li Maozhen smiled and was kind.

"I don't know enough." Shangguan Qingcheng's eyes to see Li Maozhen were very strong, this sentence is also very powerful, it seems that if not so hard, she would not be able to catch something she was thinking about.

"Li Yan wanted to be alone and lead the army to go out and attack Khitan. I thought for a long time and never thought of a more suitable place than starting from Yunzhou, nor did I think of a more suitable person than you." Li Maozhen said this. Then, it didn't disappoint Shangguan.

Shangguan Qingcheng followed, "Your opinion is accurate."

Li Maozhen said: "Just two questions remain."

Shangguan Qingcheng Road: "Any problem can be solved."

Li Maozhen shook his head and said, "The two issues are different."

Shangguan fell silent, waiting for Li Maozhen to continue.

Li Maozhen said: "First of all, Li Zhi has realized your suffering in the **** battle of Yanyankou. He no longer wants you to continue to fight and wants you to rest for a while.

Shangguan Qingcheng did not answer immediately, and was quiet for a while.

Then she said, "I have rested long enough, and I cannot rest longer. I believe that Your Highness understands this too."

Li Maozhen looked at the other person's cheeks, and sighed, "If Li Yuan saw you, I'm afraid there is no reason to disagree with you."

Shangguan Qingcheng said: "What's the second question?"

Li Maozhen said: "I don't have a fine ride comparable to the Wolffang Army ..."

Shangguan Qingcheng Road: "The Langfang Army has five thousand rides."

"Five thousand rides is not enough."

"Not enough, you add."

"It's not the Riding Horse's elite ride. You may not be comfortable with it."

"This is not an insurmountable problem for the elite."

Li Maozhen groaned.

Obviously, Shangguan's war intentions have been resolved.

She had long been war-determined.

She has always been determined.

Li Maozhen realized this.

She felt admiration, joy, and sadness and jealousy.

She finally understood why it was Shangguan Qingcheng who made the famous star, not her Qi King.

As a fighter, the opponent is much more pure than her.

Li Maozhen converged and solemnly said: "Thirty thousand fine ride, I will allocate it to you as soon as possible. There can only be thirty thousand, no matter how much, the movement is too great."

Shangguan Qingcheng asked, "What is the target of the battle?"

Li Maozhen condensed Shinto: "Strike Mobei, do your best to kill all enemy forces you can kill."

Shangguan Qingcheng holds his fist: "Shangguan Qingcheng, take orders!"
