v8 Chapter 35： action

The prairie is a jungle world, and the rules of wild and weak meat and strong food are hardly concealed here.

The grasslands are not as clear as the Chinese, so they are closer to the beasts. For beasts living in the wilderness, weak meat and strong food are naturally the only rule. The more advanced the development of civilization, the deeper the jungle law is hidden, or the deeper it is modified.

The root cause is the richness of the material, which can already make ordinary people well-fed.

But on the prairie, clothing and food are just a dream for ordinary shepherds at night. So shepherds are more pure, pure killings, pure plunders, and looting others just for military food.

At first glance at the sight of the river valley, Zhang Changan confirmed that this was the place where the Khitan food-raising army gathered. The team that raises food on the grassland naturally needs such a transfer zone, so that they can transport the collected grain to the Huairong City and Juyongguan battlefield.

Lying behind the grassy slope, Zhang Chang'an has been observing the Khitan camp, calculating the number of soldiers and defensive forces in his mind.

The number of cattle and sheep is countless. There are more than 20,000 soldiers. Based on the distribution of their tents and the tension and relaxation of the soldiers' words and deeds, Zhang Changan speculated that their food-raising team has not returned, so they Will wait here for a while.

For Zhang Changan, this is great news, which means that the army of Shangguan has a time to attack here. But whether this time is sufficient, Zhang Changan is not sure.

Since the opponent has already returned a large number of food thousand people, the time limit is approaching. How many food-raising teams will return in the future, Zhang Chang'an cannot estimate at all, and can't infer the time when the other party leaves the camp. Maybe they will start tomorrow morning, or maybe they will wait until the day after tomorrow.

To be realistic, the army that escorted cattle and sheep was not as fast as the pure cavalry troops. Even if they left tomorrow, Shangguan Qingcheng could catch up with them and defeat them before they reached the front line of Huairong.

However, Zhang Changan had to consider whether these Khitan troops going out to raise food will, after the food is raised, whether the Khitan army in the direction of Huairong and Juyongguan will send some troops to respond.

"If there are only more than 20,000 people, or 30,000 or 40,000 people, as long as General Shangguan can come in time to defeat them, it is very simple to defeat them. But I do n’t know if there will be food-raising and food-transporting troops sent by the Khitan Army. How much. "Xu Jiu said without worry.

Zhang Changan responded in a low voice: "In the situation of stalemate in the frontline battle, how much power can be allocated by the 600,000 army? It is said that there will not be 100,000. As long as it does not exceed 100,000, we will attack them may!"

Speaking of this, Zhang Chang'an turned back and began to prepare military newspapers for the monks in the team to send back.

The monk delivering the letter also needs to be followed by a shepherd. If you encounter a Khitan ride on the road, there will always be a chance to survive.

Scouts returning to the military situation ahead are two reports a day. This is the iron rule of scout operations developed by Shangguan Qingcheng based on the current war situation, so that she can evaluate the military situation ahead and not jeopardize the fighter. If the scout does not report back to the military in a timely manner, it means that there is something wrong with the scout and it is also convenient for her to respond in time.

When Zhang Changan took Gesang and others to follow the Khitan food-raising team, Shangguan Qingcheng did not let the army take the initiative to follow up. The Khitan food-raising team

Now that it has spread all over the grassland ahead, the army cannot move lightly, so as not to be found by the other party and affect the subsequent actions.

Before receiving Zhang Changan's military report, Shangguan Qingcheng had been thinking about the battle situation in the army account against the map of the grassland. The map of the prairie was drawn by a combination of the true view and the airless release gate, which is much more detailed than the ordinary maps, but even with detailed writing, this map is actually not very detailed.

After all, the grassland is too wide, no matter whether it is the former Yimen of Tsing Yi, or the later Quanzhenguan and the empty release gate, there is no time to walk and measure every inch of land.

As Shangguan Qingcheng was thinking about how to expand the tactical result as much as possible on the target of the Khitan Food Raising Team and change the war situation in Luzhou, she heard a voice that was no longer familiar.

"Regardless of Luzhou, Tanzhou, or Pingzhou, the main force of the Khitan Army is the direct army of the Khitan Eight Tribes. Although there are many other grassland tribal cavalry conquered and merged by Khitan, the number of battles is much worse. For the time being, the Khitan unification of the grassland is still short, and the difference between the eight headquarters troops and the merged army cannot be eliminated.

"The Khalidan Eight-line Army's food is heavy, and all of them are provided from the rear. All those who need to raise food are Khalidan forces that were merged into the Khalidan during the conquest of the grasslands.

"Although their strength is worse, the number of them is far more than that of the Khitan Eight Tribes. If this time they can successfully attack their food-raising team and make their soldiers lack food, they can separate the hearts of the two. If Zhang Changan can find a gathering place for the food-raising team, there is a lot to be done to change the Luzhou war situation. "

Hearing this voice, although the look of Shangguan Qingcheng remains the same, the joy in his eyes cannot be concealed.

Although she often heard this voice recently, as long as it sounded, she would be happy from the bottom of her heart.

She didn't look up because she knew the "eyes" were invisible to her.

The one who spoke with Shangguan Qingcheng was naturally Li Yan.

The medium is the eye of his emperor.

When he was in Hexi before, Li Zheng used such eyes to observe Zhang Chang'an and others.

It was only then that he could only see, not pass information through these eyes, and completely overcame Hexi, and after receiving the Shu land, his emperor Tao was further improved, and the voice could be transmitted through the eyes of the emperor.

Restrictions are naturally there. The eyes of Emperor Li of the Emperor can only appear in the territory of the Tang Dynasty or the people of the Tang Dynasty. Just as in Hexi before, he can observe Zhang Chang'an and others, but he cannot observe the Shimen. Action.

If not, Zhang Chang'an will not be used as a scout now, and his eyes can point the army forward.

Nowadays, in the battle of immortals, Li Xun's cultivation is all in immortals. The only power that the human body can use is the power of Emperor Dao, which is rooted in dragon spirit. After all, this is the basis of his walking in human beings.

However, with the majority of the Tang Dynasty finalized, Li Zhi's physical strength in Chang'an also has his own self-protection. Although at most it is an ordinary real world, he can at least protect himself in the center of Chang'an. Safety, do n’t worry about what happened to Yeluabaoji, and send someone to easily remove his head.

Shangguan Qingcheng responded: "Since it is a non-Khitan direct army, its combat power is poor.

These, after a successful attack, can determine the Luzhou war situation, and then affect the entire northern battlefield, which is a godsend. If Zhang Changan can find out where the grain-raising army meets, the allure will definitely go all out! "

Li Ye smiled and said, "Datang is just now stable and its strength has not been fully restored. Yeluabaoji believes that this is the best time to attack the world. In fact, the strength has not yet reached its peak. It is not only Datang, but Qidan itself is also same."

After he had said this, the monk sent by Zhang Changan arrived.

It was learned that Zhang Chang'an had found out where the Khitan food-raising army was assembled. Shangguan Qingcheng had no hesitation. He immediately ordered the army to gather, and then let the monks returning to the army army to lead the way and ran towards the target.

After sending a monk to report to the army, Zhang Changan changed his hiding place to a place slightly away from the Khitan camp in the valley. He has found that the other party sent a lot of monks to monitor everywhere, in case of any unexpected force.

However, these monks were not very alert, and they also felt that they would not encounter any enemies here.

There is nothing wrong with this judgment. Tang Jun resisted the Khitan Army in the north, and the fierce offensive launched in the three battlefields was already difficult. If he wants to take the initiative, he is really incapable.

The only Langfang army capable of detouring for thousands of miles, and riding in the hundreds of miles, was folded at Luoyankou. Right now even if Qidan wants to guard against the Tang army's assault, it is also in Juyongguan, Beikou and Yuguan. It is hard to imagine that there will be a cavalry of more than 30,000 people who will set off from Yunzhou and go to the back of Luzhou.

"What the Khitan people wouldn't think of is that we are still here. They thought that they defeated the Langfang Army at Luoyankou, and the Langfang Army would cease to exist? As long as the Shangguan General did not die, the world ’s most acute Langfang Army, Will not disappear!

"The Khitan will never think that, whether it is Qi King sitting in the northern part of the town, or the general Shangguan who has survived, he has long become a rare and famous celebrity in the Tang Dynasty civil war."

In the afternoon of the next day, I saw that the Khitan food-raising army in the river valley has reached more than 40,000 people, and those Khitan monks who watched the parties were lazy, and Zhang Changan couldn't help sneering.

The Khitans may not have thought of these issues, but Zhang Changan obviously did not expect that their whereabouts would be discovered by the Khitan monks he despised!

Although he had fought against the Tubos and killed in Yangguan, he still had too little experience in the battlefield and did not have deep experience behind the enemy. When Zhang Chang'an found a group of monks from Khitan and quickly approached the grassy **** where they were, it was too late to evacuate.

The situation was urgent, and Zhang Changan made a quick decision, "Go!"

To this day, only the siege has been killed.

"Commander, you go first, we will break!" Xu Jiu took out the knife, and now it is basically impossible to retreat the whole staff, the only way is to keep people after the break.

Zhang Changan's eyes were broken, and he growled, "Let's go!"

This is the first time he has led a scout to carry out his mission, relying on his own practice close to the real world, he obviously lacks the corresponding psychological preparation for the survival of some cruel scouts.

At the very moment when the matter was launched, no one could tolerate any disputes, but if there was more entanglement in everything, the whole army might be wiped out.

Just then Gesang took the lead.
