Sun Wanrong went all out this time, and his army doubled the number of troops. It only took one day to arrive outside Dongxi Stone Valley, where he prepared an ambush early.
Not long after they had laid ambush, they saw the scout returning and reported to him: "Report to the Great Khan, Li Xian's army is indeed coming here, with more than 20,000 elite cavalry, and it is led by Li Xian himself.
Lead.”
"Oh? Is this true? Haha, we have made a lot of money this time. As long as we capture Li Xian alive, let alone restore his former glory, or exchange the entire land of Hebei with the Tang Emperor, the Tang Emperor probably can only
Nodding in agreement, more importantly, we have captured the crown prince of the Tang Dynasty alive. How revealing is this? It is estimated that in the next decades or even hundreds of years, the Tang Dynasty will never be able to raise its head again." A person next to Sun Wanrong
The tall man with a curly beard burst out laughing when he heard this and said proudly.
The general who had questioned Sun Wanrong's decision before apologized with a blushing face: "Haha, the Great Khan has seen thousands of miles and has unparalleled wisdom. I will admire him. Although Li Xian is good at martial arts, he is a reckless person.
If you really dare to come to Dongxi Stone Valley, I think he is desperate, but he can use the death of his soldiers to exchange for a glory for us, and they can be regarded as a worthy death."
The general was originally a little dissatisfied with Sun Wanrong's hasty decision, but now that he saw that the other party's calculations were so accurate, he was already in awe of him, and he naturally became extremely polite and even flattering when he spoke.
When Sun Wanrong heard this, he laughed and said humbly: "This is just my luck, and the hard work of the scouts. Haha, if I capture Li Xian in the future and achieve great success, I will not be stingy with the reward.
, as long as you follow me with all your heart, I will definitely bring you great wealth in the future."
Although he sounded modest on the surface, Sun Wanrong's tone was full of confidence and even a little arrogant. It was obvious that he accepted all the compliments from others.
"The Great Khan is really too humble. In fact, according to the general's opinion, this incident was definitely not an accident. In order to induce Li Xian to boldly enter the ambush circle, the Great Khan deliberately left a flat terrain. Although this terrain was flat, it was
It’s also not conducive to cavalry combat, because it can’t be deployed at all, and if the opponent is infantry and has no cavalry that can’t resist us, hey, except for Khan, who else in the world can come up with such a clever plan?”
As soon as Sun Wanrong finished speaking, another general began to praise him vigorously.
After listening to the praise of these generals, Sun Wanrong couldn't help but have a faint smile on his face. He was quite smug, because even he thought that his arrangement was very exquisite, and he was simply ingenious and unparalleled in the world.
Originally, if there was an ambush here, it would usually be on both sides of the long and narrow valley, because fire attacks could be carried out here, but he chose not to do that, because after arriving here, the Tang army would definitely be prepared. And the main reason is,
Sun Wanrong was worried that if he carried out an ambush on both sides of the canyon, the follow-up troops of the Tang Army would flee after hearing the news, which would prevent him from completing his achievements.
Because this canyon is not long enough for these 20,000 people, if an ambush is carried out in the canyon, I am afraid that less than half of the Tang army will be able to escape in time. If there is a flat and open terrain in front of them, then they will relax their guard.
, after all, according to normal thinking, they were not attacked when they were in the valley before, and it is even less likely that someone would ambush in this flat place. And with this mentality, their rear team will go all out.
Entering the valley, at that time, Sun Wanrong only had to send people to block the entrance of the valley by throwing debris. The Tang army would have no way to retreat, and naturally they could only watch their entire army being annihilated.
So he decided to give the Tang army a flat terrain. However, this flat land could only accommodate five or six hundred people fighting at the same time. Such a number of people had almost no hope facing his 20,000 army. More importantly, this time
Let the Tang army see the hope of resistance, so the Tang army will rush to this flat land desperately. This kind of disappointment after being full of hope is the most shocking thing. At that time, our soldiers only need to block the exit of the valley, and then
If we then order a fire attack or throw stones from the mountains on both sides, we will definitely be able to annihilate this entire Tang army.
"The so-called soldiers are deceitful. The art of war is the virtual and the real. My method is just using human psychology, and there is nothing too clever." Sun Wanrong continued to speak modestly, but the smile on his face
It betrayed his truest thoughts.
"Hey, even so, you all need to be careful, because Li Xian is the best at conspiracy and is also proficient in strategy. He may not be able to guess that we will set up an ambush here, so we must not take it lightly and let him have the opportunity to escape.
, Otherwise, I’m afraid that no matter how careful I plan this time, I still won’t be able to do a good job. Well, if I can’t do a good job in a battle like this, it would be really embarrassing. What shame will I have in the future?
How about commanding you to fight?"
Sun Wanrong looked confident and said with a faint smile, as if all this had become a fact.
The generals under his command were naturally full of compliments and were in harmony with each other.
After about half an hour, I suddenly heard a scout coming to report: "Reporting to the Great Khan, the Tang bandits have arrived, and their vanguard is entering the valley mouth. It is estimated that it will only take half an hour for them all to enter the place we expected."
It’s a place.”
"Eh? It's so fast? Haha, have you seen it? Li Xian is thinking of launching a surprise attack again. This time, thanks to Ben Khan's timely deployment, he has gained this advantage. Otherwise, if he gives way first
The Tang bandits occupy this place, not to mention Pingzhou, even our base camp Yingzhou may be captured by the Tang bandits who are like wolves and tigers." Sun Wanrong smiled indifferently, and then said seriously: "Order all ministries and camps.
, prepare for battle immediately, and as soon as I give my order, you will act as planned. By the way, do you know where Li Xian is in the team now?"
Sun Wanrong did not forget to ask a casual question at the end.
But the scout said: "This time, that guy is different from usual. He is following the team at the back. If we want to attack him, it is best to wait until all his troops enter the ambush circle before taking action."
"Well, you did a good job, go down and receive the reward." Seeing that the other party's suggestion was exactly what he wanted, Sun Wanrong said with a smile. (To be continued.) This chapter has been completed!
