I heard the displeasure in Gong Ren's words, but now Chang Yuankai is not the time to care about it.

After discussing for a while, it would definitely not work. Gong Ren said something about qi, so he really couldn't burn it. That is, why did he burn the baggage to withdraw, and the Blood Camp would immediately react. This journey was a quick road, but the terrain was complicated, so the Blood Camp could not tell where they were going.

He was reluctant to leave, so he had already deployed a large amount of supplies. With Mochu's plunder, the Shuofang's supplies would be even more in short supply in the future. So he sent five thousand weak and disabled soldiers to escort the supplies along the Wuding River to Xiazhou. It should be said that Mochu's speed has not yet reached Xiazhou. These soldiers have very low field combat power, but they can use the dangers of the city wall to assist in defense. Moreover, some of the veterans have a little less physical strength, but they have rich combat experience. This can prevent the Turks from moving further south. Even if they go south, they can only grab some things like before, and dare not be unscrupulous.

After Lu Gongren said a word, he never said it again.

But he was joking in his heart. When has it been! Now, for this little baggage, I am still delaying time. Can I really hide the blood camp from the eyes and ears? If I don’t immediately take advantage of the blood camp and retreat, and wait for the blood camp to make some adjustments, I’m afraid there will be no chance to withdraw.

This reminded him of an idiom from the Han people: Hit the bell with a cover!

After discussing the retreat, we discussed dealing with Mochu, and fighting was not a battle. The best way now is to take Mochu's army across the Yellow River, and immediately pass back to Hetao from the Gobi Desert and the desert, and seize Fengzhou, Shengzhou and several new cities. Isolating Mochu's return path is not really allowed to make them embark on the road of no return, but to force Mochu to withdraw his troops immediately. In this way, Mochu's plundering is a little smaller, as if the court told me.

Yun Gongren once again despised him. What does it mean to isolate Mochu's return? This is called not daring to fight. He wanted to attack by stealing opportunities and regain a few cities, but Mochu could make them succeed as they wish? Wang Hua was not easy to deal with, and Mochu was also not easy to deal with.

Before fighting, I was afraid and used my own weaknesses to the other's strengths. On Gong Ren's heart, I felt sad, even if the Blood Camp did not attack their group, I would not have a good ending even if I crossed the Yellow River.

Chang Yuankai arranged another thing cleverly.

The tacit understanding between the Tang Dynasty and the Turkic people was only known by a few people at the upper level, and some very smart people could guess it. But most of the soldiers below were not clear about this. Perhaps their thoughts were that the Blood Camp had created too many enemies, so so many enemies suddenly came out, and they wanted to kill Wang Hua immediately.

Now the soldiers are suffering heavy casualties, and they just go back without saying a word, with a low morale. Although they are not prepared to fight a major battle, they have to counterattack Fengzhou and Shengzhou. Even if the enemy leaves few troops on the north bank of the Yellow River, with such morale, they will not be able to capture any city.

Therefore, I sent someone to say that Mochu attacked Wang Hua was fake, and now I will capture our Fengzhou Shengzhou and cross the Yellow River to the south.

We had no choice but to leave Wang Hua, the traitor, withdraw our troops and take back Fengzhou.

Why Mochuo was able to conquer Fengzhou and lead wolves into the house is not mentioned, but only mentioning the facts that are happening now is a fact. There is a reason to withdraw like this, and because most of this army is border troops, there are also a few Hu soldiers, with their relatives in Liuhu Prefecture or Fengsheng Prefecture.

Gong Ren has no objection to this article. Morality is important at any time and during combat, so there is a saying that the soldiers will win. Of course, as the chief general of Shuofang, Chang Yuankai would not have issued this appointment if he did not have any military talent. However, this talent is as ridiculous as the clown in the jumping beam.

The order was passed down, and immediately ignored the soldiers' rest, and 5,000 veterans were drawn out, transporting the large camp's food and supplies, and heading on the road first. This sorting was in the middle of the night, but the large army did not leave the city of Yanzhou. First, give the baggage troops time to evacuate to ensure their safety. Second, the soldiers need to rest and ensure their physical strength.

The idea was good, but this precious night actually cost Chang Yuankai a waste.

Lun Gongren slept in bed toss and turns and couldn't sleep.

You are not afraid of death, but you have to die even if you die. You cannot let a few pigs take your own life.

He quietly got out of bed and came to his close friend Lun's tent. This time he came, he brought dozens of the strongest Tubo warriors in Shazhou, some of whom were appointed as some low-level military officers. Lun's lieutenant also served as a lieutenant.

I said it about Gong Ren’s future intentions.

Lunxi Re said worriedly: "Do you want to join the Blood Camp?"

Although there are almost no Tubo people in Wang Hua's blood camp, there are exiled people who are also vulnerable and have no feelings for Tubo. However, the Lun family and the Tubo family now have deep blood hatreds, and Wang Hua can accept it in terms of emotions. Moreover, Wang Hua's most courageous part is tolerance.

However, it is not a trivial matter for Gong Ren to take the initiative to join Wang Hua. He hesitated for a moment and asked again: "What should we do with our tribe members in Shazhou?"

These thousands of ethnic groups are all direct ethnic groups of the Lun family. Shazhou is still under the jurisdiction of Guo Yuanzhen.

"I'm just talking about our current situation, and I may not necessarily surrender to Wang Hua. Even if I surrender to Wang Hua, it doesn't matter to the people of Shazhou. Although the news of the Eight Prefectures blocked, have you heard that Guo Yuanzhen and Wang Hua had fought with him? He wouldn't be these stupid pigs." At this point, he spat hard on the ground.

After saying that, the two of them stayed in the darkness for a long time.

When it comes to Gong Renchun, he is in a irritable mood, while when it comes to breathing, he is considering the gains and losses.

After a while, Lunxire said: "If the people are safe, it may not be a good thing if you really join Wang Hua."

Lun Gongren was a little surprised: "What did you say? When did I say I want to join Wang Hua?"

Luxi Re said meaningfully: "The emperor was the one who had kindness to the old master and the young master back then, and was not the emperor of the Tang Dynasty today. If you don't tell me about your life and death in this battle, even if you survive, Chang Yuankai would try his best to find a scapegoat in order to survive. Which one would you become a scapegoat? Even if the emperor did not blame you, in the future, because of rumors outside, you would think that you and Wang Hua were not clear about it, and would you be appreciated by the court?"

"How did you come up with this idea?" Lun Gongren was still a little unresponsive.

"Why can't this idea come true? The great master made such great contributions to Tubo back then, but he was tragically killed. The second master wandered to the Tang Dynasty, and the people are still homeless. Over the years, the old slave has always wanted to avenge this revenge and defect to Wang Hua. This deep revenge in the sea of ​​blood may not be without a chance to repay it."

Speaking of this, the breath heated up sobbing.

Lun Gongren was still a little stunned. He was just depressed because he found the sacrificial fervor to express it and vent it. Unexpectedly, when the sacrificial fervor was mentioned, things changed their nature.

After finishing sobbing, Lunxihe said, "Today, there is a chance. Two subordinates in our clan are on duty and are patrolling outside the camp. We can write a letter to let them shoot the head of Yanzhou City with bows and arrows. It can be regarded as your return to Wang Hua's subordinates to make a great contribution."

"Let me think about it," Lun Gongren became even more annoyed and walked back and forth in the tent.

In fact, he didn't need to write a letter to the Blood Camp. Chang Yuankai's army also entered the blood camp's net due to the delay of this night.

The next morning, after a night of rest, the soldiers recovered and began to transfer camps and return.

Before leaving, Chang Yuankai still poked the ground with a sword, as if he had regarded the ground as Wang Hua. It was so miserable. If it weren't Wang Hua, or Xueying, his subordinates were intact, and even if he was head-on, he would have the courage to beat the Turks.

This is nonsense. If you give him another 20,000 people, he will not be Mochu's opponent without the city.

The army headed eastward, but after turning a few slopes, it suddenly turned and headed north. This was the path Gu Du mentioned.

It is not easy to walk. Sometimes even the cavalry had to get off their horses, lead their horses, and climb cliffs. Fortunately, the hilly terrain is the main one, and the mountains are continuous, but not too tall.

After moving forward for a while, at noon, I had lunch and moved forward again. Soon, I came to the ancient Great Wall. Because I did not pay attention to it and had not been built for many years, this section of the Great Wall was almost a continuous ruin, with more than half of the battlements of the city wall falling down, and there was sand from the north wind blowing from the north under the city wall, which accumulated under the corners of the wall, and looked very desolate.

But there is a city gate in a section of the city wall here, and the gate is gone, becoming a bare passage. Herders on both sides often use this passage to travel north and south. However, due to the terrain, there are very few people leading there. Basically, there is no outsider. This was when Gu Du passed here a few years ago and accidentally discovered this road.

Then the forward stopped. Chang Yuankai was now soldiers, and immediately rushed to the front with Li Wei and Gu Du.

There are new changes in the situation!

The passage was blocked by mud, and there were hundreds of soldiers on the top of the city wall, vaguely behind the walls.

Chang Yuankai was suspicious. The speed of this journey was very fast. Did the blood camp calculate that he was going to pass through this road and ambush the army in advance?

He looked at Gudu, but it was not easy to say. But if the Blood Camp knew the route of their journey, it would have backfired this time. The hills in this area were undulating, and there were many places with woods and gullies. The terrain was extremely complex, which just allowed the Blood Camp to find many ambush places.

Gu Du's face was not very good. He stared at the city wall. The soldiers appeared and disappeared from time to time. There was also a big flag emitting a slight sound of flag displaying in the April breeze.

Suddenly his eyes lit up, he pointed to the big flag and said, "Master, look at the font size on the flag."

Chang Kai was still a little confused about what size of the font. He looked at it and said that the word "tian" was not strong and the flag was unsatisfied, so most of the time, the word "tian" was not visible.

He asked, "What does that mean?"

"Master General, don't worry. Since we know this road, the Blood Camp can also know this road. It is normal to send some troops to guard this place. And you have also seen that it is the Tian character, the soldiers of the Tian character division, that is, the reserve team of the Blood Camp. If the Blood Camp knew that we were coming, would use the reserve team to deal with us? Wang Hua wouldn't that be too arrogant, right?"

Chang Yuankai's eyes lit up as well. When he understood, he immediately ordered the attack.

Since someone is stationed and seeing them coming, someone will definitely go back to report the news. This place cannot be kept for a long time. And is this section of the city wall still a city wall?

Therefore, you must take it down quickly and leave here.

However, it is not that easy to conquer.

Seeing the enemy getting closer and far away, Mi Zheng shouted: "Let me go!"

It is very unreasonable. Now Chang Yuankai's subordinates are nearly two hundred steps away from the city wall, which is far beyond the range.

But it is very reasonable in reality.

This is not a crossbow, but a kind of bow. The bed crossbow is powerful and troublesome to operate. So Wang Hua thought of another kind of divine arm crossbow with a range of nearly 400 meters. He only knew that this kind of crossbow was a real crossbow. He used mountain mulberry as the body, sandalwood as the trunk, iron as the barrel, steel as the machine, mast and wire as the string. But the power was "shooting three hundred steps, passing through the heavy thread". And as long as one person operated it, he drew an imaginary picture. But it had never been developed.

Finally, he realized that he was in a blind spot. The reason why an ordinary crossbow had such a range and shooting force was that it had mechanisms, but the mechanism was lost.

Therefore, he thought of another Welsh Longbow, a real thing he had seen. The materials can be made of elm, hazel and basil wood, and the cost is very cheap, but its range is also more than 200 meters. If it is strong, the bow arm can reach more than 300 meters.

There are also weaknesses, which are not convenient to use on cavalry, and the soldiers who draw this bow must be strong.

However, Wang Hua did not use it as a cavalry weapon, but used it to travel to the city. Similarly, the soldiers in the Blood Camp were much more powerful than the sea. Some strong men could be similar to Wang Hua, but they were not one or two.

So Wang Hua immediately drew it, which was just developed. The first batch was thrown on this city wall, but it had nothing to do with Wang Hua, and it was Zhu Tong's idea.

What can I use to attract Chang Yuankai? He burned all the supplies and supplies to retreat, which obviously doesn't work. Or use a pile of gold, can you avoid Chang Yuankai's suspicion when there appears in this place? So I used this long bow to attract Chang Yuankai.

It can be imagined that once such a long shooting distance is displayed, it will be too lethal without being defended.

This would make Chang Yuankai feel very heartbroken, but if he hadn't been so angry, he would have thought of how much combat effectiveness he would exert when he counterattacked Fengzhou and Shengzhou?

So the longbow appeared on the ancient city wall.

Five hundred soldiers and five hundred sharp arrows, with a whizzing sound in the air, quickly sank into the middle of the army, and some were nailed into the shield of the shield player.

Not every arrow hit the soldiers, but the first rain of arrows poured down seventy or eighty people.

Some actually passed by and killed two birds with one stone.

Chang Yuankai almost fell off his horse, not for the sake of casualties, and these casualties were nothing, mainly because of this range.

Even the strongest crossbow in the Tang Dynasty did not have such a long range.

Immediately ordered the soldiers to pay attention.

With the order to withdraw the cavalry again, facing such a longbow, the cavalry also had shields in their hands, but they could not protect the war horses. He saw with his own eyes a sharp arrow that would actually penetrate the horse's head. Therefore, he sent the cavalry forward, obviously giving it to the other party a living target.

Then he mobilized again and sent infantry to organize a square formation, a shield formation, forcibly rushed under the city wall.

But that's it, the powerful arrow power still made the shields clatter, and soldiers fell down from time to time.

This shocked Chang Yuankai again. If the Blood Camp warriors were full of this kind of longbow in their hands, what would it look like? Thinking of this, he was scared.

However, there were still fewer soldiers on the city wall, and there were militia again. Seeing the infantry force step by step, they stopped and shot two arrows randomly, one by one, they fled down the city wall and ran away.

Zhu Tong really overestimated Chang Yuankai. Chang Yuankai immediately ordered the soldiers to move the mud bags at the city gate. It was not a big deal, but just piled up a thin layer. It seemed that the enemy scouts hurriedly organized the defense when they saw them coming.

At this time, Gu Du still reminded him: "Master General, chase them immediately."

Chang Yuankai was still stunned. What's the use of chasing him? It was just that hundreds of militiamen were not victorious, but they sacrificed some of their subordinates in vain.

"Master General, the bow on their backs, attack the city!" Gu was anxious.
To be continued...
