From the very beginning when he had to rush to the front in every battle, to later on sitting firmly in the middle of the army and occasionally leading the Xuanjia cavalry in assaults, Li Xuan experienced less and less dangerous situations.
With fewer dangerous experiences, people will feel better.
Previously I was looking at the ruins of the previous dynasty, feeling very sad, and also wanted to write a poem.
Suddenly his scalp became numb, his heart beat faster, and his whole body became tense.
If it were anyone else, he would have galloped away.
Once you turn around and run away, the ambush will definitely discover you and then ambush and chase you.
After all, Li Xuan was a well-known and experienced commander. He was obviously panicking, but he turned around calmly, as if he had discovered a good scenic spot and called his family members who had fallen behind to watch it together.
But his back was tense the whole time.
The feeling of numbness in my scalp was always there, and the feeling that someone was watching me was always there, until I saw Wang Laoer's stick...
"Mr. Lang, have you harvested the heads?"
Wang Laoer was very happy.
Escaped!
Li Xuan said in a deep voice: "Hurry and leave!"
"Aren't you going to show off your martial arts?" Wang Laoer said, "How about I go?"
Han Ji gave him a wink, then rode up to catch up with Li Xuan and asked, "Did your Highness realize something was wrong?"
"right."
Li Xuan stretched out his hand and wiped his forehead, covered in cold sweat, "I saw a lot of reflections in the forest ahead."
"That's a weapon?"
A group of people were sweating coldly, but Wang Laoer said happily: "There are so many heads."
"Yes, a lot of heads."
Li Xuan pointed at him and galloped his horse.
After galloping all the way, we encountered a large army after more than an hour.
At noon, after seeing Li Xuan, Pei Jian hurriedly came out of the army.
"I have met His Highness."
Pei Jian was a little puzzled, thinking that according to His Highness's urine, shouldn't he be traveling around the mountains and rivers at this moment?
Why did you come back so early?
"Just now I was almost ambushed by Dou Zhong."
Li Xuan concluded that Dou Zhong was the one who wanted to ambush him.
"Fortunately!" Pei Jian's palace was still frightened and his face turned pale.
He Lianrong suddenly changed his expression, "The army's retreat to Xiongzhou was just a false shot. Dou Zhong didn't take any action. He was probably dissatisfied with the five thousand cavalry and wanted to involve the entire army."
"He thought that Gu Yi wanted to destroy the Chang'an army, but little did he know that Gu wanted the Chang'an army to return to Guanzhong and stop Shi Zhongtang's rebels. At least, he would leave some vitality for the Tang Dynasty."
Li Xuan raised his head and glanced at the sky.
He felt that there was an eye in the sky looking at him.
If he only has his own small calculation in mind, and would rather destroy the country than seize the world quickly, then he will probably not be able to escape today's disaster.
"The sky has eyes!" Jiang He'er clasped his hands together and worshiped the sky.
Is there really God's will in this world?
The compassionate monk looked up at the sky in confusion.
Li Xuan drank some water and threw the water bag to Wu Da, "Old thief."
The old thief, who had not been on a mission alone for a long time, immediately glowed brightly. He no longer complained about the pain in his back and legs, and said, "I'm here!"
"Second dick!"
The old thief's face fell...
"Here!" Wang Laoer smiled. He was happy when the old thief was unhappy.
"You two each lead five thousand infantry, go around to the mountains and forests on both sides of the official road, get in, and surprise them from behind."
Can I give you a fire to burn your ass?
Li Xuan had not shown his ferocious face for a long time, but now he showed it.
"Take orders!"
"Jiang Cunzhong."
"exist!"
Jiang Cunzhong glanced at Han Ji.
Are these two people vowing to fight to the end... He Lianrong shook his head, feeling that it was too much, and then he had the idea that His Highness might have a good idea. Once the two pretended to be real, every time a conflict broke out, they would go out and fight.
Your Highness is the arbiter.
He glanced at Han Ji, then at the burly Jiang Cunzhong... Wasn't this a one-sided beating?
"You still lead the vanguard all the way forward. Since Dou Zhong wants to wipe out our army in one fell swoop, he will definitely wait until all the Chinese troops have entered the ambush circle before taking action. Remember, once the enemy troops rush down, the vanguard should immediately turn around and flank the enemy.
.However, don’t kill too much, and don’t chase them too hastily.”
"Take orders!"
After the time for action was scheduled, the army set off.
…
After the five thousand horses left, the chamberlain transformed into Dou Zhong and his sister Dou E, and kept nagging in Dou Zhong's ears: The general did not listen to us and refused to accept the good news. Now,
Is it a failure?
Dou Zhong looked calm, and even Wei Zhong secretly praised this man for his ability in the city.
When the waiter went to relieve himself, Dou Zhong cursed: "You bitch slave!"
"Yang Ni is here."
shouted the sergeant on the lookout.
"Where?"
The waiter who was about to pee came back and looked anxiously into the distance.
On the official road in the distance, groups of cavalry were walking slowly.
"It's the striker."
Dou Zhong said calmly.
When the Jiang character flag appeared, someone praised: "The general's eyes are like lightning."
The guard beside the chamberlain said softly: "Jiang Cunzhong is a general in Northern Xinjiang. His attacks are like fire, and he always leads the vanguard."
"Chinese Army, Chinese Army..."
The waiter couldn't help but stomp his feet, cover his lower abdomen with both hands, and his face was red.
The forwards passed and the Chinese army began to appear.
"The Chinese army is coming."
The corners of Dou Zhong's mouth raised slightly.
This was the opportunity he had been waiting for.
Once he defeats the Northern Xinjiang army, he will become the most dazzling commander in the world.
From then on, his value was no longer a loyal dog, but a chess piece that could compete with Yang Songcheng and other aristocratic families, or even half a chess player.
When the emperor dies and the new emperor ascends the throne, it will be the best time for him to transform from a half-chess player to a chess player.
It was also the time when the Dou family soared.
Everything is at this moment.
"Prepare!"
Dou Zhong lowered his voice. The surroundings were very quiet. Occasionally, there was a muffled sound. Dou Zhong frowned and turned around, realizing that the sound came from the chamberlain who was stamping his feet.
The waiter clenched his legs, covered his lower abdomen with his hands, and his face turned red.
Dou Zhong pointed to the depths of the forest.
The chamberlain shook his head firmly.
Dou Zhong pointed to his feet, and the chamberlain nodded firmly.
Dou Zhong looked back into the distance.
At the back, Wang Laoer and his men came up to touch it.
I really want to light a fire!
Wang Laoer sniffed and pointed to the right side without thinking.
Not far away, Wang Laoer pressed his hand and everyone behind him stopped.
"Why are you hearing the rustling sound?"
A sergeant came out from the front.
Someone behind him laughed and said: "Could it be that the beauty is here to find you?"
The sergeant saw the smiling Wang Laoer and subconsciously raised his hands, but it was too late.
Wang Laoer broke his neck and touched it.
A sergeant leaned against the big tree and muttered: "How long has it been since the death of the filial emperor? It seems to be almost thirty years! What a son, I will follow you later. If you can kill Yang Ni..."
"You will make a fortune!"
Someone behind me said.
"Yes!" the sergeant responded casually, then felt that his voice was not right, and his body shook. Just as he was about to scream, someone covered his mouth.
With a click, Wang Laoer dealt with this person and waved behind him.
They made their way to the top of a low mountain. Below, there were densely packed ambush troops.
Standing here, you can see the Northern Xinjiang army marching on the official road, and the rebellion flag appeared in the distance.
Wang Laoer squatted down, took out a piece of dried meat and chewed it.
The dried meat is tough and the more you chew it, the more delicious it gets.
This is the dried meat made by the daughter-in-law. According to Helian Yunshang, she is the sweet daughter of heaven. When she was in Ningxing Chengguo Duke's mansion, she didn't touch Yangchun water with her hands, but now she washes her hands to make soup for him.
No, it's for making jerky.
The jerky made by my wife is indeed delicious!
Wang Laoer squinted his eyes, looking at the nervous ambush soldiers with great pleasure, and suddenly felt a little melancholy.
Yi Niang was urging him to work hard and give birth to a baby as soon as possible.
Why!
Shouldn't it be natural for people to live?
Birth, aging, illness and death, just let nature take its course, why do you have to work hard?
There is no concept of hard work in Wang Laoer's philosophy of life.
Behind him, the thin elder whispered: "Second brother, it's almost done."
Wang Laoer reluctantly swallowed the dried meat and held the handle of the knife.
…
"Prepare!"
Dou Zhong pressed the handle of the knife, his eyes bright.
At this moment, he felt that life was sublimating and burning.
Choking!
On the top of the mountain, the sword was unsheathed.
Wang Laoer pointed his sword downwards with a stern look. "Follow me and kill them!"
"Kill them!"
Five thousand Northern Xinjiang Army infantry shouted and rushed down.
Choking!
Dou Zhong drew his sword, "Kill him!"
Before he finished speaking, there was a shout from behind.
"Kill them!"
cannot!
There is no way Yang Ni knew that I had set up an ambush here!
Dou Zhong slowly turned back.
The waiter slowly turned back.
Five thousand infantrymen rushed down at once.
The ambush soldier was like a fierce tiger, sticking its butt out and staring at the bottom of the mountain, while the five thousand infantry were like a sharp knife, stabbing in from behind.
The screams kept coming.
The ambush soldiers were preparing to attack. When they were hit by this attack, they didn't know what to do for a while.
Looking back, the formation is in chaos and the opponent is condescending. How can they stop it?
Rushing down... Someone glanced down the mountain. God, Yang Ni's army was like a giant snake. It suddenly gave up its martial arts. No, it broke its body and divided it into two parts, leaving a long section of open space.
Come!
Come down the mountain!
But what lies ahead?
What a waste!
It's Xuan Jiaqi!
That beast actually rides on a black armor in the mountain road. Who can stop him?
On the opposite hillside, miserable howls came one after another about ten breaths later.
The smell of urine came over him, and the waiter said in a trembling voice: "I told you to stop as soon as you wanted, but you didn't listen. We heard that Yang Ni is good at ambushes, so what are you doing here? What should I do?"
His trouser legs were soaked with urine. After swaying his body, he screamed: "What should I do?"
Dou Zhong said in a deep voice: "After Wei Zhong led the 10,000 men, the others retreated to Xiongzhou along the ridge. There is a trail there."
The waiter was so happy that he ran away. After running a few steps, he was worried about looking back.
Dou Zhong stopped looking at him and said, "Blow the trumpet and tell the other side to withdraw."
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"
The ambush troops on both sides retreated toward Xiongzhou like a tide, and the Northern Xinjiang Army behind them continued to pursue them.
When retreating to Xiongzhou, Dou Zhong ordered as soon as he entered the city: "Prepare ten thousand horses, and I will personally lead the attack."
This is to prepare for a head-on blow to the pursuers.
But he waited and waited with 10,000 horsemen. When dusk came, he still saw no trace of his pursuers.
At the top of the city, the chamberlain roared: "You are being played by Yang Ni and you don't even know it!"
…
This battle was very hearty and hearty, which made Li Xuan feel relieved.
"There are not many kills and not many prisoners... This is according to His Highness's instructions to let them return more troops to stop Shi Zhongtang's rebels."
He Lianrong was reporting on the battle situation.
Li Xuan nodded, "This battle is not about killing, but about breaking Chang'an's spirit. How many were captured?"
"With more than a thousand people, these idiots can't even run away. It would be a lie not to capture them." He Lianrong said with a smile.
"That's the truth, but is it inappropriate?" Li Xuan found that He Lianrong was stunned.
What would be the discovery that would make this ruthless man stunned?
He Lianrong slowly raised his head, "Wei Zhong tripped and fell while escaping..."
Seeing that Li Xuan was also dumbfounded, Jiang He'er raised his head slightly, "Master took me to travel in the world. He once said that the older you get, the less courageous you are. Those who are good at cultivation often die at the hands of those evil young men. Without him, there is mental arithmetic.
Unintentional."
Wei Zhong, who had a big swelling on his forehead, reminded Li Xuan that he was reading a certain god in Journey to the West in a scroll.
When the two met, Wei Zhong was very embarrassed.
"I have met His Highness."
Wei Zhong salutes.
The official path was not too messy, so Li Xuan said: "The general will accompany me for a walk."
"yes."
Wei Zhong walked slowly behind Li Xuan.
For the first time, Lin Feibao, who was not allowed to accompany him, frowned so hard that he could pinch Wang Lao Er to death.
"I'm here, don't worry!"
The old handsome man waved his tail and followed closely behind.
Whenever Wei Zhong wants to get violent, he is guaranteed to be sprayed into a sieve.
Yunshan Headmaster Guo Yunhai, who was following the army, frowned slightly, feeling that his reaction was half a beat too slow, which was wrong.
Yunshan comes from the hometown of Northern Liao. Guo Yunhai has no intention of challenging Li Xuan's confidant metaphysics, but as the banner of rebellion is raised, he must find a suitable position for Yunshan under Li Xuan.
"...How is Ling'er?"
"Still the same, naughty."
"It's so enviable to be naive and forthright." Li Xuan couldn't help but smile when he thought of Wei Linger, "Logically, the general shouldn't be left behind this time."
Wei Zhong felt a sharp pain in his forehead, "Dou Zhong ordered me to cut off my wife, and I was not well-intentioned."
It didn't matter that he was captured, but he couldn't imitate Luo Cai and Song Zhen, otherwise the puppet emperor would turn the Baoying County Duke's mansion upside down.
His beloved Wei Ling'er will also become an official slave.
Li Xuan was noncommittal, "What does the general think of the current situation?"
"It is inevitable that the south will be lost, and so will the north. After that, we have to watch the battle between the north and the south. However, the Chang'an army will be watching..."
"Cut off my army's food route?" Li Xuan smiled, "It's a good idea, but it's a bit simpler."
"Yes." Wei Zhong didn't think Li Xuan would have thought of this problem, so when Dou Zhong mentioned the plan, he just dealt with it casually.
"Dou Zhong's use of troops is good, but he lacks experience. In Gu's opinion, it is more about armies on paper."
Li Xuan felt that Dou Zhong had the potential to be a famous general, but famous generals were all killed from mountains of corpses and seas of blood. Dou Zhong carried a Dou family member on his back and had to be trapped in Chang'an City most of the time.
"Yes." Wei Zhong was a defeated general, so naturally he was not qualified to refute.
"Go back!"
Li Xuan said.
"Your Highness!" Wei Zhong was stunned.
"Send hello to Ling'er on behalf of Gu."
Li Xuan turned and left.
Wei Zhong turned around and saw Ning Yayun waiting for Li Xuan, glanced at him, and they walked side by side.
He Lianrong walked over slowly and said: "There will be a group of cavalry chasing the general later. In addition, there are many broken troops on the road. Our army deliberately does not pursue them. The general can save them and go back."
This can also achieve meritorious service... Wei Zhong: "..."
