Chapter 229: Take command and go on an expedition

In front of Wakou Pass, flags cover the sun and horns shake the sky.

The 50,000 troops of the Sui Dynasty did not set up camps, but lined up a mile before the pass to wait for battle. This was the order of the commander of the army, Li Zhiyun. The original words were, "I have no time to work with them. If you want to fight, it will be today, and the team will be triumphant tomorrow!"

In the eyes of the soldiers of the Sui army, Li Shuai's words cannot be called heroic and magnanimous, but should be called nonsense. Why is he said to be nonsense? As we all know, when the two armies confront each other, the number of winners and losses is nothing more than the right time, place and people, but the Sui army did not have the advantage in all aspects of comparison.

First of all, in terms of how many troops are, the Turks have 100,000 troops, and we only have 50,000. How to play? It is not without any precedent to fight with less, but those are all roundabout ambush battles. Isn’t it better to fight in front of each other like now, who will win if there are more people?

Secondly, in terms of combat power of generals, the most powerful little prince Luo Cheng was unable to fight before he recovered from his injuries. You, Li Zhiyun, could not stand alone, how could you beat the Turkic generals? What's more, there are descendants of famous generals from the Three Kingdoms like Guan Da and Zhao Xia to help?

The little prince Luo Chengdu cannot break Guan Da and Zhao Xia's joint pistol spear, you, Li Zhiyun, can break it? Even if you can break it, will the Turks not have stronger generals? Isn't it said that the Grand Governor Red Sea is known as the grassland general and is invincible?

Even Luo Cheng, who had seen Li Zhiyun's sword slash, and the six flag officials, were not optimistic about Li Zhiyun's bold words.

Third, in terms of geographical advantage, the Turks had an absolute advantage because they had already occupied the Wakou Pass that was the only one man was the pass, and ten thousand men could not open.

The terrain is immutable. The terrain near Wakou Pass is high in the northwest and low in the southeast. Wakou Pass was built in the Ancient Town between the two mountains. The reason for this was that war horses from the northern nomadic peoples could not cross the mountains and could only pass through the Ancient Town. After the pass was built, the road of the alien cavalry was completely blocked. If the enemy wanted to move forward, they had to cut Wakou Pass to continue.

To put it bluntly, the city pass of Wakou Pass is relatively easy to attack from the northwest direction. If it attacks from the southeast direction, it will become an insurmountable natural danger. For the Turks who occupied Wakou Pass at this moment, if they want to break out of the city and kill Beiping, it will be that rivers burst into dams and surging thousands of miles away, and they will be invincible.

Charging from high places to low places is almost the most ideal way for cavalry to fight.

Therefore, no matter which aspect is analyzed, the Sui army was at a disadvantage. According to Luo Cheng and others' ideas, they should set up camps 30 miles southeast of Wakouguan, dig deep into trenches and traps, and set up deer antlers and yachas to confront the enemy, and then they could talk about finding fighter opportunities in the confrontation.

But Li Zhiyun didn't listen to these suggestions at all, "No! Just do what I said and recover the city before dawn tomorrow!"

Luo Chengdu regrets it. He shouldn't have blindly believed in Li Zhiyun's ability and shouldn't have agreed to his father handing over the command of the entire army. Now that Li Zhiyun holds the command of the entire army, he is so determined that he can't send these 50,000 troops to the underworld?

Luo Chengdu couldn't persuade him, and others couldn't persuade him even more. Neither Yu Shang nor Li Rongrong could persuade him to "stubborn" little kid, and could only frown and wait for the defeat to come.

Even Di Zhixun began to doubt Li Zhiyun. It seems that Mr. Li really can't lead troops to fight. No matter how he thinks, it's impossible to recover Wakou Pass in one day!

The three of them went down, and the flag officials such as Yuchi brothers, Zhang Gongjin, Bai Xiandao, etc. who came together could not understand Li Zhiyun's orders, but they did not even have the qualifications to dissuade him, so they could only secretly scold Li Zhiyun for being amateur in their stomachs.

However, the head coach is the head coach. Once the commander is released, the generals and soldiers under his command must be executed. Otherwise, the order will be against the battlefield, which will be a serious crime of killing and no one dares to take this risk.

After the array was completed, the war drums beat for a round, and the generals looked at Li Zhiyun, who was in the middle, waiting for his orders.

Cao Gui said it well, and once in one go, he will lose again and then lose three times. How come everyone, as generals, don’t know the reason? If they don’t start fighting, their morale will begin to vent.

Li Zhiyun looked at the two thousand Turkic cavalry listed outside the city and thoughtfully. After a long time, he turned around and asked left and right, "How to fight this battle?"

This sentence almost made the generals spit out blood. What? You have placed all your troops here, and you still have to ask how we fight?

At this time, the enemy general was already yelling in front of the formation. It was Guan Da, the descendant of Guan Yunchang. As soon as the drums of the Sui army stopped, Guan Da's voice came to the wind: "Luo Cheng, the last time was rushed, Guan did not use all his strength to kill you on the horse. How about another battle today? It would save you from not knowing how high the sky is and how thick the earth is..."

There is one sentence in this sentence that is true, that is, time is indeed in a hurry, and Li Zhiyun didn't even have time to rush to make the commander's flag. The Sui army's commander's flag was written with a big word Luo, which is Luo Yizhiluo, and of course it can also be understood as Luo Chengzhiluo, so Guan Da directly challenged Luo Cheng.

Li Zhiyun ignored Guan Da and only asked the generals around him: "Why don't you answer me? I'm asking you if I want to go out and fight against the enemy general!"

When the generals heard this, they couldn't help but secretly complain, "Aren't you talking nonsense?" Of course, you have to fight one-on-one. Could it be that you don't dare to fight one-on-one with the enemy general? If you don't dare, don't ask if you want to go out. Just send us up directly!

Luo Cheng was even more angry. He was already angry with himself. In addition, he was humiliated by Guan Da, so he wanted to immediately take off the horse and attack him. Unfortunately, his injuries had not healed and could not fight the enemy with skillful swordsmanship, which would be like to die in vain. He said, "Mr. Li, why don't you let Zhang Gongjin go up and fight?"

It is logical that when the two armies confront each other, as the commander, the generals and officials had the power to actively seek battle, but were not qualified to assign others to fight. This is a very taboo thing. Who should I send to fight the commander alone? Who are you? Even if you suggest it, it is not OK.

But Luo Cheng had no choice. Seeing that Li Zhiyun didn't seem to want to go out to fight alone, he gave a step to hide his shame for Li Zhiyun.

At this time, Li Rongrong and Yu Shang looked at each other, and the former said, "It's a pity that my younger sister has not recovered, otherwise she would have to play this front for Mr. Li!" But the latter said, "It's a pity that the other party is not Bu Jiang."

If Guan Da is a general, Yu Shang dares to fight; if Li Rongrong recovers from his injuries, she can use the snake-turning raccoon to cut Guan Da's horse legs. Since the two women learned that they have a common enemy, Yang Guang, their relationship is like mixing oil in honey. In the future, they will be regarded as lace.

Both of them thought that Li Zhiyun was not enough to defeat Guan Da, who was immediately slashed, especially Li Rongrong, who had seen Guan Da's sword skills, thought that it was very uncomfortable to be unable to fight for Li Zhiyun.

Li Zhiyun shook his head and smiled, "Where are you thinking about going? Isn't it just a Guanda? What's so great? Even if you add Zhao Xia, it's nothing. It's all right to see if I can get it."

When the generals heard this, they immediately became a commotion and thought: Just brag, since you are so powerful, why are you talking nonsense to us? You are so angry!

But when Li Zhiyun was a little excited, he said, "Actually, I asked you that because I think it's not interesting to go up and fight one-on-one now. Even if I take down the enemy general, it will not help the outcome of this battle."

It's meaningless? What does it mean? The generals were confused, and Luo Cheng couldn't help but say, "Why is it helpless? The one-on-one fight is the most important thing to boost morale. Winning in the last game is better than any drum beat."

Li Zhiyun said: "I know that one-on-one fight can boost morale, but now it is not time to boost morale. Think about it, if I beat Guan Da and Zhao Xia, will Honghai give up Wakou Pass first? No way?"

No one can guess Li Zhiyun's idea thoroughly, but this sentence is very reasonable. Even if he kills Guan Da and Zhao Xia, Wakou Pass is still in the hands of the Turks. If he wants to retake it, it can only be achieved through a tough battle.

In the final analysis, the nature of this battle is not a field battle or an encounter battle. There is no possibility of a tree falling and scattering. Killing the enemy's main general and then covering it up will be done? It's not the case at all. What's more, Guan Da and Zhao Xia are not the backbone of the enemy. Even if they are killed, they will be of no use to boost morale.

Li Zhiyun didn't explain much. Since all the generals wanted to see a single-handed victory, let's show them, even if it was to add some confidence to them. After saying that, he lifted the reins in his hand and turned around and said, "Wife, lend me a piece of your judge's pen, Zhang Gongjin, find me a trippy horses."

Everyone was even more confused when they heard this. Why did he use the judge's pen? Perhaps in infantry battles, he could fight long weapons like a big sword. He was one inch long and one inch long and one inch short and one inch dangerous, but how could you use the judge's pen when fighting immediately? This was not reachable at all.

Also, what does it mean to take a tripping marsole? Is it a tripping marsole? You can use a tripping marsole for two people. How do you use it alone?

However, since Li Zhiyun said so, others have to do it. Who made him Yu Shang’s husband? Who made him the head coach of the army?

Yu Shang took out a judge's pen and handed it to her husband. Zhang Gongjin also found a cow tendon tripod and gave it to Li Zhiyun. Li Zhiyun passed one end of the tripod and passed it through the ring at the end of the judge's pen, tied a knot again, and tied the tripod and horse to the judge's pen. Then he clamped the horse's belly and the war horse galloped in front of the formation.

"Beat the drum!" Luo Cheng issued an order from behind. The coach came out in person, and beating the drums and cheering was necessary. Moreover, he was the second largest figure in the army. The power to behave when it comes to the opportunity must fall on him.

With the sound of drums shook the sky, Li Zhiyunchi came to the scene, stopped his horse five meters apart from Guan Da, and said, "Are you Guan Da?"

Guan Da was surprised to see that Luo Cheng was not Luo Cheng who was fighting. When he got closer, he was a child and he was so angry that he was so angry that he was just a little boy. "It's Guan, who is your child? Why are you running to the battlefield? Go back quickly and let Luo Cheng come up."

Guan Da’s words were not very hostile, and he did not say anything like some generals who saw anyone. Li Zhiyun felt a little fond of affection and said, “It doesn’t matter whose child I am. As long as I can defeat you, it’s just that I want to ask you something before the fight starts.”

Guan Da didn't mean to continue chatting and said calmly: "Guan has no time to talk to you little baby, so he quickly retreats. How can Guan bully a child?"

Li Zhiyun smiled and said to myself that if you don’t respond, I have to say, “I heard from others that you are a descendant of Guan Gong, who is the Marquis of Han Shouting, who is highly respected by everyone. Now that you are working hard for the Hu people, you have harmed the Han people in turn. Don’t you feel embarrassed to your ancestors?”

This sentence was about the pain point of Zhongguanda. His face turned redder like Chongju, and his redness turned black. He didn't know that Wu Kui was going to surrender to the Turks, but because he had been under Wu Kui's tent for many years, Wu Kui treated him well, so he kept the Wu family and left Beiping City when Wu Luohuo merged.

After leaving Beiping City, Wu Kui said that he wanted to go to Wakou Pass to avoid the limelight. When he arrived at Wakou Pass, he told the guards that he was going to inspect the boundary situation and prevent Turkic attacks. The guards of Wakou Pass were several levels lower than him, the governor of Youzhou, so of course he did not dare to stop them. He immediately received a grand ceremony and opened the city to release the ceremony after the banquet.

Unexpectedly, when Wu Kui was staying at Wakou Pass, he secretly sent some dead soldiers to lurk. After leaving Wakou Pass, he surrendered to the Turks, and immediately led the Turkic army to counterattack Wakou Pass. There were only two thousand defenders in Wakou Pass, but he was captured after defending within and outside.

In this battle, not only did the two thousand defenders at Wakou Pass die in collectively, but also the two thousand remaining troops under Wu Kui died in the siege. Now only he and Zhao Xia are left in the Turkic army with Wu Kui's family. Without soldiers in his hands, the Turkic commander Hong Hai is not as respectful as he was at the beginning and no longer takes Wu Kui seriously.

If it weren't for the fact that he and Zhao Xia, two generals who could fight, could use it, I guess the Red Sea had the intention to kill Wu Kui. Those Turkic generals were drooling at Wu Kui and Wu Liang's wife.

Guan Da felt very uncomfortable when he became a traitor for no reason, but he could resist Li Zhiyun's words and was immediately embarrassed and angry: "It's not your turn to do what Guan is doing. If you don't leave, don't leave. Don't blame Guan for being ruthless under the knife later! Show off your weapons!"

After saying that, he raised the Qinglong Yanyue Sword in his hand, intending to intimidate him. Li Zhiyun laughed and said, "Don't worry, why are you the only one coming up by yourself? Where is Zhao Xia? Call him over, I'll fight you two alone."

When everyone in the Sui army heard this, they were immediately furious, especially Luo Cheng, Li Rongrong and others, who were almost angry and cried by Li Zhiyun, and they all thought: Are you stupid? You may not be able to beat Guan Da yet, why are you calling Zhao Xia?

Guanda could no longer bear it, and rushed up with a clamp of his horse's belly, shouting: "Children's look at the knife!"
