Chapter 87: Li Xian's Tunnel Warfare

"Informing the patriarch, our army has completely completed the encirclement of the Tang bandits. In addition to this pass, General Qiqi Meng Liang also personally led 2,000 people and deployed crossbowmen on the opposite side of Baihe Valley. Anyone who attempts to pass through Baihe Valley will

The Tang thieves will all be shot to death by our army's crossbows. Haha, unless the Tang thieves move Erlang Mountain to the ground this time, they will never be able to escape the clan leader's control."

In the evening, Wu Yanchamu, the guard captain beside Qiqi Zhongxiang, reported the news to him, and at the same time, he calmly patted Qiqi Zhongxiang on the butt.

As expected, Qiqi Zhongxiang was very satisfied with his confidant, and said with a smile: "If I can capture Li Xian this time, I will have the capital to strengthen my Mohe tribe. Then we will exchange grain and women from the Southern Dynasty.

I will definitely not treat you badly. Wu Yan checked his eyes and said that we will wait until early tomorrow morning when our army suddenly appears at the pass and blocks the retreat of the Tang bandits. How panic will the Tang bandits be by then? Haha, the Tang bandits have no food and no food.

Shui, I believe that within a few days, someone will capture Li Xian and come to see me."

In fact, this matter is not to blame Qiqi Zhongxiang for being confident, because if analyzed according to common sense, the final outcome will indeed be like this. However, with Li Xian's wisdom, how could he have made such a conclusion if he had not made a complete plan in advance?

Is getting up a suicidal decision?

In the Tang army, Li Xian's army quietly launched operations under the cover of night. Under the eyes of the begging Zhongxiang army, loads of soil were dug out by the sergeants, and then quietly filled into the nearby river...

...

"Your Majesty, there are rocks ahead. We can't pass." A strong man came to Li Xian and said with a slight shame on his face.

"It doesn't matter, as long as you do this, you can bypass the boulder and continue to pass." Li Xian gently patted the soldier's shoulder, and then said with a faint smile.

"No." Although the commanding sergeant didn't know how King Zhou determined that after such a detour, the direction of the tunnel was still directed towards the center of the enemy camp, but he still did it, because after this period of time,

Since then, his blind trust in Zhou Wangxian has completely filled his heart, leaving him without any doubts about it.

And Xue Ne and Li Duozuo now trust Li Xian almost as much as the sergeant, because only they understand that just after a patrol when they first arrived during the day, the King of Zhou can now

They can accurately judge the direction of the tunnel underground and avoid rivers, rocks and other obstacles. Such miraculous judgment ability is definitely something they can't compare to.

Around the fourth watch, the tunnel had been dug. After the local crossing was revealed, Xue Ne and Li Duozuo tried to expose their heads to the ground, but found that it was exactly as Li Xian had predicted. The exit was right next to the enemy's baggage.

In the camp, everyone was really shocked by Li Xian's amazing judgment. At this moment, they felt that even in this life, they might not be able to achieve such accurate judgment!

In fact, Xue Ne, Li Duozuo and others are either familiar with military books or have extremely rich combat experience. It is not difficult to judge based on the local terrain. This is the only place where Mohe's army is stationed that is spacious, flat, dry and ventilated, and is most suitable for building equipment.

The camp also knew that this place was in the general direction of their army, but it was absolutely impossible for them to dig the tunnel accurately to this place.

But how did these people know? Such difficulty is simply a piece of cake for Li Xian. In his previous life, in a tomb as big as a hill, the difficulty of accurately finding the tomb coffin was nothing compared to this. Li Xian even

That kind of thing can be done with certainty, let alone such a trivial matter?

"General Li, please take your soldiers down to rest first. It's up to us to wait." Li Xian saw that the Mohe soldiers responsible for digging the tunnel were exhausted, so he quickly ordered Li Duozuo to go down.

But I heard Li Duozuo say: "Your Majesty, I will not be tired. Why don't you allow me to go with you to kill the enemy and make meritorious deeds? I think I have some courage and can still help you. In addition,

You may not be able to fish in troubled waters and recruit Mohe warriors for my use."

In fact, Li Xian also knew the meaning of Li Duozuo's words. He just didn't want to cause too many casualties to his tribe, so he was going to take this opportunity to surrender as many as he could. At the same time, he also wanted to test his own attitude.

He was afraid that he would doubt his loyalty to the Tang Dynasty and himself.

How could Li Xian refuse such a request? He had no choice but to agree: "In that case, the general will lead his trusted soldiers to go with the king. In fact, the general also knows that it is not that the king cannot believe the recent surrender, but that he cannot bear it.

Let him and his own soldiers and horses fight each other, not to mention that the main camp also needs people to guard it. General Zhang will definitely encounter a desperate counterattack by the Mohe army this time, and the pressure will not be small."

"The king's good intentions are clear to me, and I am grateful to the king for his thoughtfulness on behalf of these tribesmen. However, before leaving today, I have already explained it to them, and they are not confused. As things have developed so far, good luck prevails.

The negative momentum has become clear, and after several days of fighting, they have long been deeply impressed by the king's bravery. Even if their parents come, they will never dare to surrender. Haha, don't worry, your king.

That’s it.”

Li Duozuo naturally knew that Li Xian did not doubt his loyalty, but he also had to show his loyalty to the warriors of his own clan who had just joined him. After seeing Li Xian nodding his head after hearing this, he was slightly relieved.

Of course, Li Duozuo did not expect to completely put Li Xian at ease with just a few words of his own. Although he knew that Li Xian still had certain precautions against those soldiers of his own clan who had just surrendered, he pretended not to know.

, after all, this is human nature, not to mention that he also believes that as long as Li Xian conducts an inspection after this battle, he will no longer doubt the loyalty of these soldiers.

Half an hour later, it was the darkest time before dawn. Li Xian led Xue Ne, Li Duozuo and more than 300 soldiers quietly out of the tunnel and came to the supply camp. Then they broke out of the supply camp first and attacked.

An assassination attempt was launched at a nearby sentry post.

Although he was wearing soft armor, this did not hinder Li Xian's nimble movements. With just a stick of incense, he killed all ten sentries around the transport camp.

After this, Li Xian just sent out a signal, and all three hundred soldiers protruded from the supply camp, and then started setting fires everywhere.

"No, it's not good, there's a fire." The patrolman not far away was sleeping soundly. He was suddenly awakened by a strong light. He opened his sleepy eyes and took a look, only to find that there was a fire in the baggage camp. He was shocked.

shouted loudly.

The nearby soldiers were awakened by the shouts and were all frightened. They rushed towards the direction of the fire. Although most of the soldiers did not have fire-extinguishing tools in their hands, they could not let the fire swallow up the little food they had worked hard to save. Lose.

And they have no idea that in front of them, the God of Death is quietly waiting for their arrival.

"There is a fire in the supply camp. Why are you standing here without putting out the fire?" Balito, the general in charge of the night watch in Qiqi Zhongxiang's army, saw about two to three hundred tribesmen gathered near the supply camp and couldn't help roaring. road.

Because he was in a rage, Barito yelled angrily, swung his riding crop, and whipped it at a nearby sergeant. However, he saw that the sergeant jumped to avoid his riding whip, and then stretched out his palm to hit Holding everything on his arm, Palito suddenly felt pain in his bones, and he couldn't help but loosen the riding crop.

But at this moment, the man's other hand suddenly stretched out and pinched his throat directly. He didn't see how hard he used it. Barito heard a green sound of "click", and then he felt A sharp pain that penetrated the bone marrow came.

"Although this man is wearing the clothes of our clan, he is not from our clan. It seems that he is a Tang thief who sneaked in..." When Balito thought of this, he lost consciousness and fell to the ground softly.

At the moment when Barito died, all 300 Tang army soldiers dispatched and immediately started massacring the enemy troops that were coming one after another.

Since the enemy troops came in a hurry, most of the Mohe soldiers were only there to put out the fire and did not bring weapons at all. In front of the wolf-like and tiger-like Tang army, they were naturally like lambs to be slaughtered and could only passively accept the judgment of death.

"Your Majesty, the enemy troops are gathering more and more. We should not stay here. We should go straight to the core and capture and kill the beggar elephant. As for here, the army horses in the nearby stables are enough to cause chaos." Seeing the clan members being killed. There were more and more people, and Li Duozuo couldn't help but feel a little unbearable, and quickly advised Li Xian.

Li Xian naturally knew what Li Duozuo was thinking, but he had the same plan. In addition, he could take the opportunity to sell the other party a favor, so he readily agreed and immediately led his soldiers to kill the beggar Zhongxiang directly. The Chinese army's tent where it was located ordered a fire to be set near the stables while leaving.

This fire was just like Li Duozuo said, creating a big enough chaos, because all the war horses scattered and ran around in the military camp, finally causing the entire military camp to become completely chaotic. The soldiers of the Mohe tribe were lucky enough to survive the sea of ​​​​fire, but unfortunately they were knocked to the ground by a frightened horse, and then trampled by the horse's hooves, causing injuries and even death.

In such a chaotic state, Qiqi Zhongxiang had already been awakened. When he heard the commotion outside the camp, he knew that there was an accident. He ordered Wu Yan, the captain of the personal guard, to check the situation to find out the news. He also ordered the soldiers to assemble the team and then Let's go out together to fight.

After a while, when Qiqi Zhongxiang finally understood what was going on, he still didn't understand how the Tang Army came to his transport camp. He always refused to believe the Tang Army's statement about digging tunnels, because in his opinion, the Tang Army It is impossible to dig a tunnel to this point with such precision.

"There are soldiers on duty all around. As long as there is a slight mistake, it will be discovered. The Tang army is not a god, how can it dig tunnels so accurately? This must be a traitor within our army." Qiqi Zhongxiang can't even direct the battle. I was a little distracted and kept repeating this sentence.

At this moment, he saw Wuyan Zamutan, the captain of the personal guard, walking over, dragging him out, and shouted loudly: "Chief, the Tang bandits are approaching now. Our army cannot resist, so we should leave quickly."

The best thing is, as for whether there are traitors, it would not be too late to investigate after the fact."
