The speaker has no intention, but the listener has the intention. Ashina said it easily, and a mere four thousand people could easily eat it. These words fell into the ears of Khan Erda, but they were of no use.
I saw Halda nodding his head with a smile on his face, but he was cursing secretly in his heart, "We will chew the bones and leave the meat for you to eat. You are not taking it easy!".
The Tiemoleh battle has always been like this. First, the other ethnic groups in Mobei grassland are used to consume the enemy. When the consumption is almost completed, the Tiemoleh Tiger Division will make the final decision.
The law of the grassland is that the weak eat the strong. Tie Moller used this law very well. Because Tie Moller was powerful, he had three well-equipped tiger divisions, a better-equipped Royal Guards, and four legions. Together they amount to 80,000 people.
With 80,000 cavalry, Tie Molle swept across the grasslands and Mobei. This was the confidence that Tie Molle dared to make rules. However, other ethnic groups did not have this confidence. Since they did not have this confidence, they had to surrender and use it as a knife for others.
Without soldiers, there is no confidence. This is true for the grassland and the same is true for Daqian.
At the Jinan County Cavalry Camp, Division Han was having a headache due to the lack of troops, when he saw a cavalryman dismounting and coming to him.
"Sir, our troops intercepted two soldiers from the government forty miles away. One of them was sent to Pingyao, and the other one was recruited by the team because they thought it was pretty good..."
Shi Han's eyes lit up and he said: "That boy from Dahan has very poisonous eyes. He said he is right, so he can't be wrong! Tell me quickly, which county's soldier he is from, and who is the leader?"
The cavalryman stood up and said, "They say they are from Xunyang County, and the leader is a lieutenant, his name seems to be Tianqi..."
The cavalryman thought for a while, slapped his forehead and said, "My name is Zheng Tianqi! By the way, our team is just saying that a governor and three school lieutenants have arrived from Xunyang Mansion!"
Shi Han frowned slightly, what was he doing? A third lieutenant, a governor, was bringing all the military attachés from Xunyang here.
Just as Shi Han was thinking about it, he heard the cavalryman say: "Our captain also said that one of the three captains is definitely a martial arts master, and a very high one! However, I don't believe it. How can you be taller than an adult?"
After hearing the cavalry's words, Shi Han suddenly smiled, looked at the cavalry and cursed with a smile: "You can learn from whoever you want. You have learned the ability of Lu Dahan to flatter others! But why don't you learn something better?" , why don’t you learn from Lu Dahan’s ability to judge people!”
The cavalryman chuckled and said, "I don't want to have those sneaky eyes of our captain, and I don't want to be arrested as a bandit!"
Shi Han thought about it. Lu Dahan was the confidant he brought with him when he escaped from the horse bandits. Lu Dahan's ability to judge people was also developed when he was a horse bandit, but not everyone can learn it.
The division letter called the soldiers, mounted the horse and said: "Where are they? Take me to greet them!"
Although Xunyang County is a lower county, the rank of the governor is not much higher than that of his Shihan, but he still has to do some superficial work. After all, it is his Shihan who has the final say in the south, and he may not be able to get along well with others. , his teacher’s letter was also very uncomfortable.
Shi Han took fifty cavalry and ran for more than 20 miles before he saw Xunyang County's imperial soldiers from a distance. Shi Han had to bring no more than fifty cavalry, and that's what he said. If he brought too many, he would be suspected of intimidating others. , if he didn’t bring enough, if something happened to happen or misunderstanding happened, he would be chopped into pieces, wouldn’t that be very unfair?
Zheng Tianqi learned from the leader of the team that Tie Mo Le had already arrived at the city. He couldn't help but secretly sigh that he was too late in all his hurry these days. Now that he was about to be recruited by a school captain, he was actually unconvinced. But he was not convinced.
Use it, military orders are like a mountain, if you fail to follow them, you will lose your head.
The sun had already set. When Zheng Tianqi saw the smoke and dust billowing in the distance, he couldn't help but be shocked. They were cavalry troops.
"The whole army is ready for war, the spears are arrayed, and the crossbows are in front of the array, with swords and swords supporting each other's wings! Place two heavy crossbows for me in front of the array, and after two rounds of firing, the crossbows will be withdrawn!"
Upon hearing Zheng Tianqi's order, Xunyang County soldiers quickly formed their formation, and three captains, Li Taiping and others, also hurriedly rode their horses to Zheng Tianqi's side.
Boss Du frowned and said, "Sir, has Tie Mo Le bypassed Jinyang, or has Jinyang already..."
Zheng Tianqi shook his head and said, "Get ready for war!"
Nangong Yu looked at the cavalry troops rolling in and said, "It shouldn't be a large group of cavalry. Even if it's Tie Mo Le, we can still fight!"
Li Taiping had the best eyesight among all the people. When he saw that he was about to bring a long bow, he saw that the bow was like a full moon. Li Taiping was confident that he could kill the leading cavalry general with one arrow within three hundred steps because his sword skills were so good.
Qi is attached to the arrow, and it is difficult for ordinary warriors to guard against it without knowing it.
From a distance, Shi Han saw that the troops in front had already formed their formation. In order to avoid misunderstanding between the two sides, he slowed down his horse after running to 500 paces and stopped at 300 paces.
I saw Shi Han riding out and said loudly: "In front of you is Governor Zheng Tianqi of Xunyang County?"
Li Taiping put down the bow and arrow in his hand, but did not return the bow and arrow to the soldiers. Instead, he looked at Zheng Tianqi who was riding out and was on guard. Although Li Taiping had clearly seen the opponent's flag, who could guarantee that it was not Tie Mo Le
People are pretending, so be careful.
I saw Zheng Tianqi saying loudly: "This is Zheng Tianqi, and in front of you is General Shihan?"
Shi Han ordered the cavalry behind him to dismount and walked slowly towards the soldiers. Then he smiled and said, "This is Shi Han from Jinan County!"
When Shi Han's cavalry came within a hundred steps, Zheng Tianqi gathered up his formation and rode towards Shi Han.
Li Taiping glanced at Nangong Yu and Boss Du, then rode out to follow Zheng Tianqi.
Shi Han saw everything in his eyes and thought to himself, "The soldiers of the Xunyang Mansion are indeed good, and that boy Lu Dahan's eyes are still as sneaky as ever! Not bad! Not bad! With these five hundred soldiers of the Mansion joining me, I can feel a lot more relaxed!"
.
The generals on both sides had been chatting for a long time, and the soldiers on both sides felt at ease.
On the way back, Shi Han and Zheng Tianqi rode side by side, while Zheng Tianqi took the initiative to drop half of his horse. Shi Han smiled, slowed down his horse until they were abreast, and then smiled and said: "It's all to fight against Tie Mo Le.
General Zheng, there is no need to be like this! Our troops just arrived a few days early and were assigned to Lord Dugu Lie's tent!
Zheng Tianqi smiled and said: "I heard what Lu Junzheng said, our A-shaped regiment is the elite of the government soldiers! Therefore, it is an honor for me, Zheng Tianqi, to serve under Dugulie's account! Since it is all to fight against Tie Molle, and
We are all serving under Lord Dugu Lie, so it is appropriate to lose half a horse body, so that the group of boys behind me know that the commander-in-chief is the division general, and they cannot mess up the order!"
On the way back, Shi Han and Zheng Tianqi chatted a lot. In Shi Han's heart, Zheng Tianqi was a very well-connected person, but he was not as kind as he seemed on the surface. He was a very skillful person.
Zheng Tianqi is smart, which is a good thing for Shi Han. After all, pig teammates are a very scary thing, and Shi Han doesn't want to be tricked to death by pig teammates.
Shi Han and Zheng Tianqi discussed the defensive line mission. The two of them studied while riding side by side. Before they arrived at the Taigu County camp, they discussed a combat strategy.
The Xunyang County soldiers transferred two squads in exchange for the cavalry stationed on the official road. The remaining Xunyang County soldiers were divided into eight squads to garrison along the defense line to block the Tiemo Le people. The division Han's cavalry was
Stationed outside Taigu County, if there is a war, use the sound of arrows as a signal to provide rapid support.
Zheng Tianqi thinks this plan is good. Considering that the terrain is flat for fifty miles around Taigu County, the cavalry can support it in an hour. If it is just Tie Moller's scouting force, he believes that the cavalry can be dragged in to help, and he will only be responsible for commanding four small teams.
The general is in trouble.
When they arrived at the Taigu County Battalion Commander, Zheng Tianqi called Li Taiping and the others to Shi Han's camp.
"The division general and I have roughly drawn up a battle plan, and some of you will also listen to it to see if you have any better ideas..."
As he spoke, Zheng Tianqi explained the battle plan to Li Taiping and the other three in detail. Seeing that all three of them agreed, he said, "I, Nangong Yu, and Du Huwei will each lead one team, but there is only one team left..."
Zheng Tianqi looked at Li Taiping as he spoke...
Li Taiping was just along the way and was not really the captain under Zheng Tianqi's account, so Zheng Tianqi did not dare to make the decision without authorization and could only ask for Li Taiping's opinion in a tentative tone.
The teacher's letter on the side finally made it clear. This captain named Li Taiping was obviously the martial arts master Lu Dahan mentioned. Otherwise, how could there be a superior officer in the army who would still look at the expressions of junior officers.
Li Taiping did not reply to Zheng Tianqi immediately, but looked at the division letter beside him and said: "General division, do you know how the battle situation is in the three border counties?"
Shi Han shook his head and said: "Master Dugulie said that Yanmen Pass was conquered by Tie Molle so quickly, so it was obvious that there was a traitor! Since there are traitors among the 10,000 elites in Yanmen Pass, there must be traitors in the three border counties, I'm afraid...
"
Shi Han can't continue talking because the young master of his Nangong family is in Mayi County...
Nangong Jingzhi gave him 500 elite cavalry this time, not without selfish motives, and Shi Han also knew that he still shouldered the mission of rescuing the young master. However, Yanmen Pass had been lost, and unless his Shi Han grew wings and flew over, he would not be able to
It is impossible to pass through the hundreds of thousands of foreign troops and then climb over the natural and dangerous pass of Yanmen Pass.
Li Taiping stared at the teacher's letter and said, "Is there any definite news?"
"Not yet! I wonder why Colonel Li cares so much about the three border counties?"
Shi Han was very curious about why Li Taiping chased the three border counties and kept asking questions.
Zheng Tianqi said on behalf of Li Taiping: "The general of the division does not know that Taiping's sworn brother Nangong is serving as the governor of Mayi County. Taiping's main purpose of going north this time is to help his sworn brother!"
After listening to Zheng Tianqi's words, Shi Han realized that the young general in front of him turned out to be the young master's sworn brother. He risked his life for his sworn brother. It seemed that the young master's sworn brother was indeed like the young master, a man who valued loyalty over life and death.
Man.
I saw the teacher's letter saying: "In peace, don't be impatient, this matter needs to be discussed in the long run!"
As he spoke, Shi Han looked at Zheng Tianqi and said, "Everyone, I want to talk to Brother Taiping alone. Please wait here for a moment."
Shi Han glanced at Li Taiping and walked out of the tent first...
