Chapter 66 Cheng Huaimo skillfully sets traps Bai Fan's stunt to detect the enemy
"Uncle Niu, you are a general of the Right Martial Guard. Why are you coming out with me as a small thousand-person team? We are just setting up traps, not fighting on the battlefield!" Cheng Huaimo complained to Niu Jinda next to him.
Originally, Cheng Huaimu thought he had the opportunity to take a group of people out alone to cause trouble, but his good idea was destroyed by Li Ji at the beginning. Considering that Cheng Huaimu led his troops to the army for the first time and had no combat experience, he specially sent General Niu Jinda to lead the team, and Cheng Huaimu was only responsible for giving advice!
Niu Jinda laughed and scolded, "You boy, just be content! I am a general who came to protect you, are you still complaining? Look at the map to arrange it, we have already walked so far. The Tamma Lai said that in half a day we will meet the Zuo Xianwang of the Turks. If we don't arrange it, would you want to confront him head-on?"
"No, no, no, the mountain people have their own tricks. It's Si Shi, and it's half a day. Hehe, when King Zuo Xian arrived here, they must be marching in a hurry. Let's give him a big gift here to get a good start!"
I was sent to my order, and 500 people came out to dig a hole here, digging out 500 square holes with a depth of two feet and a length of one foot each. Tree branches were placed on them and covered with dead grass and soil, requiring them not to be discovered by the enemy, and they could pedestrians but not to run horses!
The remaining five hundred people were divided on both sides, using the bamboo poles and hemp ropes we brought to make hidden weapons and arrow rain. We want to make food for the enemy here!
Niu Jinda was puzzled, "Nephew, your two traps can only kill hundreds of Turkic people at most. Didn't you say that your trap is very powerful? There is no trap that can kill thousands of people on the other side?"
Cheng Huaimo covered his face, "Uncle Niu, you really dare to think about it. Is this a good place in the plain? The trap of killing thousands of people in the plain? I want to learn it too!
We have two days here, and we cheated him four or five times a day, and the number of people is quite large. And we can slow down his marching speed so that we can implement the next plan!"
Report! Lord Zuo Xianwang, a team of Tang army cavalry was found in front of him, suspected to be an enemy scout!
Haha! Don’t worry about him, I will let him know that I am here, blatantly, see how many of them are enough to kill me? Send the order and the whole army will move quickly!
"Fan'er, after passing Lingzhou Camp, we are going to Shuofang City. Shuofang City is the territory of Liang Shidu. This person is insidious and cunning, and has been colluding with the Turks for many years. We need to join Li Daozong of Lingzhou to destroy Liang Shidu first. Otherwise, with him, Liang Shidu attacking both sides of the Turks on the west road, Li Daozong is under great pressure!" Li Jing sat at the right time and said to Bai Fan.
"Uncle, are you sure you want to go to the city to meet Liang Shidu in person? Is it too dangerous?" Bai Fan said weakly.
"There is no danger in marching and fighting. Liang Shi is now with me, the Tang Dynasty, and Shuofang City is strong. If we forcefully attack the city, there will be great casualties. Only if I bring some people to persuade them to surrender, and we can successfully defeat the other party.
This person is very suspicious. If I don’t go in person, I will not show sincerity. At that time, General Li Daozong will definitely be able to take down the other party. He, Master Liang, just wants to be able to get along with others and dare not openly kill and provoke my Tang Dynasty!”
Bai Fan stopped him and said, "Uncle, the son of a thousand gold is not in the Chuitang. You are the commander of the three armies. If the Liang army does not speak morally and attack you, wouldn't this Northern Expedition be defeated before the battle?
There is a news here that I say that an army in the north is approaching Shuofang and can reach Shuofang in at most two days. What do you think they are here for?"
What?
Li Jing was shocked, but he didn't expect the enemy to come so quickly?
"Fan'er, do you mean that a large army of Turks have arrived in Shuofang? How do you know, how many people are there?"
"You always know that I have some tricks. By chance, I met Xiao Feifei's family. Hehe, wouldn't it be a waste if such a good high-altitude radar are not used?"
"You mean, the little eagle on your shoulder?"
Bai Fan smiled and said, "Yes, it was what its parents Dafei and Erfei told me. I asked them to fly five hundred miles north to find out the enemy's situation. Unexpectedly, they discovered that a team of no less than ours in the north was galloping south, which means no less than 30,000 people!
You have also said that Liang Shi wants to be at all times. If he can pick you up into the city, he can pick up the Turks into the city. You are the commander of the three armies of the Tang Dynasty, but the Turks are just a general. As for both sides, if he kills the commander of the Tang Dynasty, then isn’t the Turks sure to win this time? Then will he have less credit at that time?"
Bang! Li Jing slapped his thigh, you Liang Shidu. If Bai Fan hadn't reminded me that I almost got your vicious plan, no wonder you repeatedly asked to have an interview with the coach. It turned out that he was such a vicious plan?
People come and go to tell General Li Daozong to come to discuss matters!
"Daozong, I received news that 30,000 Turkic people went straight to Shuofang from the north to the south, less than two days away from Shuofang City. Master Liang had previously sent a letter saying that he would meet with me to discuss the surrender. It seems that this person is trying to plot against us to seek credit for the Turkic. Do you have any good plans?"
Li Daozong was shocked. What happened? Master Liang was so vicious, would he be desperate?
After pondering for a moment, he spoke, "Master General, I think that since the Liang Shidu relies on the 30,000 Turkic troops, it is better to give him a plan to remove firewood from the cauldron. Let's go around and ambush and destroy the Turkic enemies. See if he is still brave enough to play tricks?"
Li Daozong is worthy of being one of the few handsome talents in the Li family of the Tang Dynasty, and he hits the nail on the head!
"Well! What the Daozong said is right, but our 30,000 to 30,000 people are not enough. I'm afraid there will be too many casualties. We also have to send troops to prevent the Liang army from attacking. So, you can send people to the Lingzhou camp to come over. You must arrive outside Shuofang City within two days and surround Shuofang. When we destroy the Turkic enemy, we will turn back to deal with this recurring villain!"
With the unique skill of being proficient in the terminology of hundreds of beasts, Bai Fan not only can talk and chat with animals, but also gained many good friends, such as the sitting horse, the little eagle on his shoulder, and a pair of air eagles to convey information to him. If this were not the case, I am afraid that Li Jing would be in danger of this luggage. Bai Fan couldn't help but be afraid that although he had changed the history of the Weishui Alliance, it would be a bad thing if Li Jing's life was harmed by this!
Not to mention Bai Fan's side has seen through the conspiracy and prepared for a war, let alone Cheng Huaimu and his party, Niu Jinda was praising Cheng Huaimu loudly at this time, "Nephew, don't say that, your trap mechanism is really clever, one is more effective than the other, and one is more vicious than the other. Are all the people from your Cheng family so insidious and cunning?"
...
"Uncle Niu, don't praise others if you don't want to praise others? It seems that there is a problem with our Cheng family! Now we have used four traps to kill more than 1,000 enemies, and the effect has been achieved! Next is the time for you, Uncle Niu. Since the general sent you a powerful general, we will not fight against the Turks, wouldn't he underestimate him?"
When Niu Jinda heard this, he shook his head, "Nephew, your uncle Niu is not good at using his mind, but he also knows that the military orders cannot be violated. The commander said that we are just to set up traps to delay the enemy's speed of travel. We cannot confront each other head-on. Don't mention it again! When Lao Niu came, he repeatedly promised to your father that he would protect you boy. Don't do anything wrong!"
"Uncle Niu see what you said, is my nephew a reckless person? We are like this... Among the more than a thousand of us, do you say, besides you have this ability, can you find others?"
"Really, are you sure it's good? But the military order..."
"I will not accept the orders of the king outside!"
"But……"
"This time we can kill five thousand barbarians!"
