The 365th chapter spears thousands of miles (2)
Chapter 365: Long spear, a thousand miles of tassels (2)
Li Wei ordered camping.
The common fighting style of the Tang army was not Li Wei's current tactics. First, there were large armies arranged in formations, crossbowmen and strong archers. When they reached 150 steps, they would shoot while walking. When they retreated, ordinary archers and twenty steps later, the infantry rushed out, and then the crossbowmen put down the crossbows in their hands and joined together. The soldiers in the battle formation in front were finished fighting, and then the regular army was over. After the regular army was over, the reserve army was over. As for cavalry, there were many people who could ride horses, but few people who were proficient in riding horses, at least not as precious as nomadic peoples. They were very precious. They did not ride on horses to prevent them from becoming targets for the enemy. When the infantry was no longer able, the cavalry would go up, but they did not charge directly, but they would rush, run away after fighting, and then fight. This repeatedly made the soldiers adjust the formation so that the horse and stance could be combined until the enemy was defeated.
Or there are medical officials. In fact, there are many medical officials in the Tang army, which was something that later generations ignored. There are also gurus. When fighting for a long distance, people still need to serve as civilians to deliver supplies, and these people cannot participate in the war.
It doesn't necessarily mean it depends on the general's preference. This is the case for most Liu Rengui's combat, but this kind of combat method is not what Xue Rengui likes. He likes to use courage to move alone. Li Jing's sect also does not like this kind of fighting style. How Liu Shenli was defeated has not been asked yet, and he mostly lost to this kind of conventional tactics.
Before Li Wei arrived in Qinghai, he formulated his strategy, built a city to play to his strengths and abandon his weaknesses, but he had to cooperate with a flexible and fast cavalry so that the whole tactic would not be rigid. He seized tens of thousands of war horses in several great victory, and exchanged a batch of war horses through merchant channels. The Dangxiang people secretly defected and sent a batch of war horses. Of course, it was impossible for them to give it to them for free. He used food, cloth, and tea as equivalents to send them back, but did not make them suffer losses.
Then, there were nearly 20,000 tribes under Qibiming and more than 10,000 tribes of Dangxiang to join. Liu Rengui had trained a group of excellent cavalry in Qinghai and kept a group of heroes in Chang'an, many of whom had good qualifications.
From horse to humans, Li Wei has provided conditions.
Coming in a hurry, Li Wei only selected five thousand cavalry to come, and also brought more than a thousand pack horses and some supplies. Time was tight, so it was impossible to bring a small cart to push slowly.
These supplies include some weapons, some gunpowder, necessary things, some dry food, tents, cooking utensils, and some tools. The latter must be prepared. Suddenly, a fortification, a shovel, hammer, chisel, saw, axe, etc.
There are only these materials, so there is no problem in building a large camp.
There were many trees on the ridge, which were cut down and made two fences. At this time, the Tubo army in the rear had already come to kill, and there were countless people on both sides, including 60,000 or 80,000 people.
The north wind blew tighter, and large swaths of snow flakes started to shave.
At this moment, Luo Wuqian said, "Your Highness, look."
Standing at the highest point of the mountain and looking at the south, a large army rushed towards this side. There is no doubt that either Li Jinxing came to rescue or Qi Bi Ming came to rescue. But Li Wei did not have much hope. This place was basically the elite troops of Tubo, with a large number of people, and the Lun brothers were commanded. The most important area is not all plains. There are large areas of valleys on the left and right of the mountains, but there are also many ups and downs and several small rivers that are not wide.
The more complex the terrain, the harder it is to command, but if you command it well, it is more difficult for you to break through than the plain. Let me ask, who can't command the army well by the Lun brothers?
Li Jinxing and his army had already collided!
He shouted loudly, raised his sword and fell, a Tubo man slashed at the horse and shouted, "Blow it."
A thoughtless sentence was made, but his personal guards knew it and sounded the horn. He couldn't hear the shouting, and used the horn to urge Li Wei to break out from the two sides.
"Your Highness, leave!" Luo Wuzhu shouted anxiously.
"You can't be anxious," he said, "At this time, the opponent is the Lu brothers. If you are anxious, it may be all over. After thinking about it, he said, "Luo Wuzheng, I will ask you to do something."
"Please give your order."
"Gu left five hundred people and you guard the camp. If Gu broke out and killed Tubo, don't resist, so as not to anger them. Even if Gu tried every means, exchanged or bought with ten thousand gold, he would rescue you."
"Here!" Luo Wu replied tidily.
"You are very good," Li Wei praised. If someone must ask why, or yells to protect him from fighting. But this is the least calm approach. Once you can't break through, everyone will be ruined. With a large camp, if you can't kill, you can still kill back and get a breath.
He immediately summoned the soldiers and said, "I'm going to fight a bloody road soon. Are you afraid?"
"Not afraid."
Li Wei walked to Zhang Qianxu and Xin Chengsi again and said, "I heard that you are very brave. Can you kill the enemy with Gu?"
"Here!"
"kill!"
He rushed out with Zhang Qianxu and Xin Chengsi first, and the prince was the first to be in front. The morale behind him immediately aroused and he killed the black Tubo army.
He pulled up the bow and shot an arrow, and a Tubo man fell down immediately.
"The prince is mighty!" All the soldiers immediately shouted, "This head is well-behaved, and the morale has reached the peak. Another arrow is another enemy, but the Tubo people also started to shoot arrows. An arrow was hitting Li Wei's face. Zhang Qianxu passed by a sword and drove the arrow out. The three of them formed a small arrow and rushed towards the Tubo camp in the blink of an eye.
Zhang Qianxu and Xin Chengsi protected Li Wei from the left and right, one used a gun and the other used a knife, shouting at the same time: "Kill."
Two Tubos died immediately, and Li Wei shot the third arrow.
Two armies, one in the south and one in the north, gradually broke out into a bloody road and collided with each other.
Standing on the top of the mountain, Lun Zan Po frowned and said, "Second brother, Tang Jun is so fierce."
"This may not be necessary. However, the Tang Dynasty is a big country and can get a bargain, but this is a good measure and cannot be completely angered for the time being. The Tang army you see at this time is not the real Tang army. They have inspired morale for the prince. I know why the prince is so young, but is the emperor and the queen in Chang'an City afraid? It's not that the prince wants to be an emperor, which is not good for them, and those who win the hearts of the people will win the world. Look at how long the prince has been in Qinghai, and these soldiers are working for him like this."
“Brother said it.”
"So this time I will take down this prince no matter what."
"But if they continue like this, they may break through the siege."
"Don't worry, order the army in the middle to dodge, let the two armies meet, and the left and right third battalions march into the south."
With the order, the pressure Li Wei and Li Jinxing's army was immediately reduced and they were about to collide.
"Second brother, why?"
"Although division is easy to annihilate, the Tang Dynasty army is now a slaughter. The Han military strategy says that a slaughter will win. It is divided into two groups, which is more likely to cause our soldiers to die. This time we sacrificed too many soldiers, which is more harmful than Xue Rengui's time. I don't want to die many more people. Let them join, and the others ignore them and stare at the prince's siege."
"Second brother, I understand that this is the seven-inch place of this Tang Dynasty army."
"Yes," Lun Qinling smiled with satisfaction.
Finally they collided, Li Jinxing shouted from afar: "Your Highness, I am guilty of saving you."
"What a crime? Let's fight out together."
"Here!"
Li Jinxing responded, rolled his horse's head and said, "Your Highness, let me open the way for you."
As he said that, he waved his sword and killed an enemy. At this time, his battle robe was covered with blood. He ignored it and fought back to the south against the snowflakes. However, after a while, he heard the shouts of killing from behind, and turned his head to see that several Tubo troops surrounded the prince again.
The tactics of Qinling are very simple. How big a place should be occupied by more than 10,000 people, and they are all cavalry. In addition, the space for war horses to run, more than 10,000 cavalry may require 60,000 to 70,000, and 70,000 to 80,000 infantry. I don’t care which one you can break through, just stare at Li Wei, and everything from it, and surround Li Wei.
Li Jinxing saw that Li Wei shot several Tubo people with bows from time to time, and there were two generals around him, who were extremely brave and tightly guarding Li Wei's safety. However, the other guards kept falling down, and the number of people was getting smaller and smaller, and shouted again: "Don't even think about hurting my master!"
Turn your head and kill it back.
After a long battle, Li Wei smiled bitterly, looked at the endless Tubo people in the south, and said, "Retreat the camp."
The simple tactic of Qinling has become a tactic that cannot be cracked at the moment. Even if he is righteous and says, "You ignore me and fight out by yourself, will these soldiers agree?"
Seeing Li Wei killing him back, Lun Qinling said, "Let him go!"
"Why?" Lun Zanpo asked again.
"Think about it again." This time I didn't tell the answer.
When he returned to the mountains, Li Wei took a breath. In just half an hour, the two armies had lost nearly 3,000 people, and more than 1,000 people were injured. He ordered soldiers to cook and bandage the wounded. He had never made high-alcohol as alcohol. I don’t know if it was useful. He understood the principle of distillation, but he didn’t know how to distillate high-alcohol. Now the food is still precious and he dared not open this mouth. Therefore, the old method of bandaging the wound is not as unbearable as later generations imagined, and the wounds are often inflamed and dead. If there are herbs, they will bring them with them. A white powder, which is very similar to the later Yunnan Baiyao, applied to the wound and bandaged with cloth. The only benefit is that cotton is popular and gauze appears. Although it is not very good, it is better than the original cloth bag, softer and more breathable.
After dinner, Li Wei said, "Sleep all, no need to pay attention."
"Why?" Luo Wu asked.
"If Lun Qinling wanted to kill Gu, Gu might not be able to come back just now. This way, it would have many effects to surround Gu, and maybe more of our troops would be attracted to annihilate him. Gu was the prince of the Tang Dynasty. Now he surrounded Gu in the Jedi, which was only the Huns of the Han Dynasty, but Gu could not find the Little Yan clan. And Qinling took this opportunity to announce his power to various tribes. Our army is now in a strong morale and wants to fight for forcibly, and the Tubo people suffered heavy casualties. Remember that although this country is fierce, it is poor and the people are not as many as our Tang Dynasty. Once the death is heavy, he will not be able to go back and explain. Now he will not not attack the camp, nor will he attack at night. Instead, we have no food and grass to surrender."
"It's this principle. Let's sleep all, nourish your energy and wait for the opportunity," Li Jinxing said.
So the soldiers chopped firewood, lit a bonfire, brought dry firewood and put it on the ground. Li Jin rushed to rescue him without even bringing a tent, so he had to squeeze together desperately.
Li Jinxing and Li Wei did not fall asleep. Li Jinxing asked, "Your Highness, what's going on?"
Li Wei said the details.
"Your Highness, you should not come in person."
"At that time, Gu was indeed negligent and believed that Lunqinling only dealt with our army. If he did not go, others would not go, and he would not be able to judge the situation immediately. But he did not expect that he had put such a big thought into his mind, just for the solitary man."
In fact, the most rational way is to cut off the armies of the hero, ask Li Jingxuan to withdraw his troops and abandon Liu Shenli's army. Maybe this may not be possible. Once this is done, it will cause countless noises, and even historical books will make the matter public.
The road is extremely simple, and you don’t have to say this when talking to Li Jinxing.
Li Jinxing was speechless and didn't know what to say. The prince was not so conscious. But if he was Lunqinling, he would choose between more than 100,000 Tang troops and the prince. A king who was both civil and military, from the people to the soldiers was in his heart, would appear, and then another Tian Khan.
But now that things have come to this point, what should I do? I sighed and said, "This time, Mr. Li, they harmed Your Highness and the entire Tang army."
"Gu thought so at that time. But when things got to this point, they were open-minded. They couldn't blame them all. They also had the responsibility and should be noticed in advance. This is also a huge loophole. How could Lun Qinling not use it? This reminded Gu of a sentence from Shilang Pei and Gu, saying that Gu reached the level of attacking soldiers. Today's battle was exactly the case. Compared with Lun Qinling, Gu was far behind, and he was the real plan to attack."
I know that I have made a mistake, but I won’t make a mistake next time I face it? Even if it’s not a mistake or a few small loopholes, I don’t pay attention to it, Lun Qinling can expand it and then use it to defeat myself. I still can’t win next time, not myself, and the same is true for others.
There was another sentence that Li Wei didn't say, and the eunuch had problems. He was afraid of death and would not come to Hongjiqiao to meet him. He had a wish. But he ran to Daba Dou Valley again, but this was a scandal between brothers and did not want to be violently promoted in front of Li Jinxing.
But I have always been negligent... It's so far away, so far away. No matter whether I don't know the battle or not, I only know how far away I am from Lunqinling is after the battle.
"If this person is not eliminated, it will be a problem for the future of our Tang Dynasty."
"Yes," Li Wei thought of the great opportunity of Wulu clan again. There were so many ministers in the Tang Dynasty who couldn't see it and let it go. The Tang Dynasty used a large army to kill this person, and I'm afraid no one could do it. However, it was easy for Zanpu to take action. Don't talk about Qinling. Yue Fei later was far better than Luqinling. Moreover, the Yue family army itself was a private army, which means that the Yue family army of more than 100,000 was Yue Fei's private army, but what about the end?
"Go to sleep, General Li. Gu is confused now. If you sleep for a while, maybe you will come up with a way to survive tomorrow." He has been in a hurry these days and has not really been asleep.
Looking at the quiet Tang army camp, Lun Qinling said, "Third brother, I already admire this prince very much now. I will drink and have fun with him tomorrow."
