Chapter 218: Battle of Yaozhou (III)

Dozens of trenchers were placed by the Qingshiao River, lined up in a row, and then Pei Xingjian shouted: "Let it go!"

Big rocks roared away. The defenders on the top of the city had long seen that the situation was not good, so they lay behind the city wall, and they didn't even dare to raise their heads. They didn't ask for much lethality, and they didn't get to the siege. They showed their power, and tried it by the way, and went back immediately.

It was getting late and the siege was about to be tomorrow, so I immediately ordered a fire to make food. The sun was still hanging high in the sky, so the soldiers were resting. However, the generals were in the meeting. It was not until now that Li Wei expressed his complete combat plan. Xue Na was stunned at first, and then surprised.

Li Wei patted his shoulder and said, "I said, look at problems but not the surface."

"Here!" Xue Ne said straightened her back, but her eyes couldn't help but feel excited. She had been practicing in the capital since last year and preparing. Seeing that four months had passed, the battle finally came.

He looked at the princess who was standing not far away playing the flute, made a gesture of wiping her neck, and said, "Do you want it..."

"Well, she is useless. But that's not the case. She and Wang Dianzi have saved some of the orphans, and are weak women. Wars are about killing people, so they can't be so charmed by the murderous intention. You can kill soldiers or even kill the people who resist, but it's best not to touch women and children. This is the bottom line, unless there are women and children who take up weapons to resist."

"Here!"

"But I don't know how she sent the message?"

"Did you hear her flute? Through the change of sound, these messages are in the change of sound, which is the same as the principle of Gu's horn sound. In fact, Gu was just suspicious of Mr. Pei and quietly monitored. It was she who was sending the message and following him to confirm it."

"What a pity."

"It's no pity. Tubo is powerful, not Qinling, Tubo has also been full of talents over the years. It's a pity to stand from our side, but it's a happy event." Li Wei closed his mouth when he said this, and the princess finished playing a song and walked over.

Xiao Yingying asked, "Prince, why don't you build a floating bridge?"

"Tomorrow, we will attack Yaozhou City. The soldiers will rest overnight and accumulate energy. We will get up tomorrow morning and build a floating bridge while preparing to attack."

"Yeah," responded, and the little silver teeth actually bit. Now the Tang army began to rest. Their army was not sure where they were. Because of the changes, they must have been very hard. One was the tired army and the other was the army that had good rest. Even if the Tang army was not prepared, their army would suffer heavy casualties.

All of this was caused by the prince's successful attempt to create a catapult. Otherwise, it would be an attack and would not be able to be captured in a few days. At that time, the Tang army would suffer heavy casualties. It just so happened that its own army would arrive slowly, and attack inside and outside would be easier than Dafeichuan's victory.

I thought it was very beautiful. Then I thought of the camellia names mentioned by the prince, and I felt resentful in my heart that I would definitely capture the prince and plant camellias for myself in the palace. I thought it better, that was, I caught it. Princess Wencheng was still alive and had less prestige than back then, and there were still some. How to deal with it is hard to tell, and could the prince of the Tang Dynasty plant camellias?

...

As night fell, the Tang Dynasty army rested and fell asleep. From time to time, some soldiers snored in the camp.

In the distance, the Tubo army was rushing to the road overnight. Meng Jian said, "General Gar, do you want to take a break? It's only about sixty miles away, and you will definitely arrive before dawn tomorrow."

"So your subordinates with more than 100,000 people actually defeated Liang Jishou!"

A word made Meng Jian unable to speak.

I also have to give Meng Jian a face. He has only 10,000 people under his command, but in this battle, there were nearly 50,000 troops, most of which were Meng Jian and the coalition forces of Nanzhao. So I slowed down and said, "The great victory is in sight. Although the soldiers are tired, they have confidence. Once they stop, their spirits will be lost. Besides, in order to attack Yaozhou tomorrow morning, the Tang army will rest early and wake up early tomorrow. Therefore, they must arrive in the early morning."

"Yes." Meng Jian felt a little unhappy, but he had to admit that his command level was too far from others. For example, after his subordinates sorted out the generals of Tubo, the discipline became much better. Qiulongdu's defeat had nothing to do with Tubo, and he was commanding his own son.

But when Mangnianda Zhabu saw the soldiers panting, he ordered the soldiers to rest for a while. After a while, he ordered to set off again. When there were more than 40 miles away from Yaozhou, the other two armies all arrived here and would form one.

More than 20,000 troops, and there were nearly 10,000 elite Tubo soldiers in it, which looked very impressive. Suddenly, together with the "straight soldiers" of the various imperial edicts, they became optimistic. As the morale grew, the speed of the march began to accelerate.

Compared to the fatigue of Mangnianda Zhabu's subordinates, Xue Rengui's subordinates were raising their sharp edges. They followed the prince all the way, but removed the armor and divided them into several routes. They stopped at Wumeng Mountain. Then they *** and began to train their troops again. Until Li Wei sent a large number of scouts to clean up Yaozhou Fangyuan, Xue Rengui divided his troops again, divided them into more than a dozen routes, and sneaked into the mountains east of Yaozhou yesterday. The battle was coming, and they even rested earlier than the Tang army outside Li Wei's city.

The energetic soldier had woken up and opened his eyes.

At this moment, two war horses rushed over and Xue Rengui got up. In terms of body bones, the old general was still very strong. After we met, it was the scout sent by Li Wei and informed Xue Rengui. Mangnianda Zhabu let Meng Jian disperse five thousand scouts, which seemed huge, but the quality of these scouts was very poor. Of course, Li Wei also took the scouts back early, leaving only a few people behind. These people were definitely the elite among the elites. News still came continuously, but the princess didn't know.

When Xue Rengui heard the scout's report, he immediately ordered the soldiers to get up, but did not leave, but instead made a fire and cooked the meal. After the meal, he set off calmly.

...

Just after the third update, Li Wei suddenly got up and ordered all the soldiers in the camp to get up, and also make fires to make meals.

The princess and sisters woke up also and found Li Wei strangely. The princess asked, "Prince, why did she get up so early?"

"Look at the fog."

"What's wrong with the fog?"

Li Wei laughed in his heart. This little girl is actually very smart, but she is too smart. When the war is approaching, she thought she was careless, but the fox's tail was raised. She said slowly without pointing it out, "There is no five fingers on the other side of the fog. At this time, even if you build a floating bridge, you won't die many people. The siege is better, and the subordinates will also sacrifice much less. The principle is the same as the Qiulongdu."

"Why did you say yesterday that you were sieging the city in the morning?"

"This is a military secret, so how can you just talk about it?"

"Then I wish the prince victory immediately."

"You seem unhappy."

"Where, I'm just worried that many people will die," the princess said with a panic expression. She was mainly worried that the dead prince would be too bad. If her army came too late and captured Yaozhou City, it would be too late.

"You are kind-hearted," Li Wei touched her head, then left, went to do his own thing, separated the side camps on both sides, concentrated in the second camps of the north and south, and took the prisoners out and started to build a floating bridge. He turned his head and looked at the princess, playing the Qiang flute in a reed, but Li Wei did not go. After she finished playing the flute, she walked over and asked, "Princess, why haven't you left yet?"

"Leave, why should I leave?" Although Princess said this, her face changed.

"Your mission is completed, can you not want to go back to Tubo, but to go to Chang'an with your own son?"

"Why do I want to go back to Tubo?" The princess's expression turned pale. Wang Dianzi wanted to find weapons, but he couldn't find them, so he grabbed the princess and protected the princess.

"Wang Dianzi, are you the princess' sister or her maid? Why are you so nervous?"

After hearing this, Wang Dianzi stepped aside again, but immediately realized that his figure had been revealed and he protected the princess again without any cover.

But the princess has a very good demeanor. She was anxious and quickly looked peaceful. She asked without any anxiety and anger: "Since you all know that I am a Tubo, why did you deceive me just now?"

"Gu once told you that it is a gentleman, not a rotten tree. Others treat you sincerely and need to return it with sincerity. Once you come up, you don't want to be sincere. How can you treat you with sincerity? It is not a gentleman's way. However, it is related to whether the southwest is stable and the safety of more than 10,000 troops under Gu's subordinates, and Gu will not be a so-called gentleman in a pedantic manner. If you want to mobilize your army, you have to play the flute as soon as it is mobilized. What should I do if I do?"

When it comes to playing the flute, the princess's face turns red.

"You look very nice when you blush," Li Wei praised her for the first time, but the princess's heart was filled with miscellaneous feelings.

"Gou explains this way, but in the past, Gu really used the fog in the battle of Qiulongdu. However, Gu did not want to attack the city. Siege was always a cover to catch a bigger fish. Gu really took the various troops of Nanzhao seriously?" Even after the Tubo people sorted out, it was impossible to become an elite army immediately. Besides, unlike the Tang army, Tubo was from various tribes, and Tubo was tyrannical and arrogant, and these soldiers were not convinced. They tortured some prisoners and obtained a lot of useful information, but they did not put it on the stage, let alone told the princess.

"So you took advantage of me."

"We can't say that the strategy has been formulated earlier, and the plan will be like this before you meet you. Think about it again, if you don't inform me, will your Tubo people change your actions?"

"But, but this time you will lose."

“Why?”

The princess gritted her teeth, but she didn't say anything.

"You mean there are fewer lonely people? Yes, and most of them are new recruits. Even after practicing for so long, the people account for a lot of the proportion, especially the soldiers recruited by Jiannan, some of them are not even the soldiers in the palace. But the elite troops are not here."

“Where is it?”

"On that side," Li Wei pointed to Dongfang and said, "I'll tell you another name. The leader is Xue Rengui, the defeated general under Tubo."

"You..." The princess was so angry that she vomited blood.

"But you don't have to worry about your safety. Gu will not kill innocent people like you Tubo, and will let you go. But you didn't take the opportunity to leave just now, so you just accompanied Gu to watch a good show."
