Chapter One Hundred and Forty-Three Military Actions
"I'm going out for a walk.?? .
The night wind howled like a sharp blade in the mountains, and the entire Luocao Mountain was shrouded in darkness. Occasionally, the torches lit by the Shepherd Sirius soldiers were seen swaying in the cold wind.
Li Luo found a random rock and sat down, looking at the darkness in the mist outside the mountain in a daze, not knowing what he was thinking. Chi Li made arrangements and walked out of the house, looking at Li Luo's lonely back, he didn't know
How to speak.
Walking behind Li Luo, remembering that he was in the stone house just now, Li Luo looked gloomy. Although he was still young, he seemed to have seen all the vicissitudes of the world, with a hint of twilight. When Chi Li was thinking about how to speak, Li Luo
Luo asked calmly: "How many people came this time?"
Chi Li hurriedly gathered his thoughts and replied: "General, when we enter Dizhou this time, we have brought 360 elite cavalrymen with us. They are all capable and skilled warriors in the army. There is no problem if one of them can equal ten."
"
Li Luo snorted and said nothing. Chi Li thought for a while and smiled: "Originally, Lord Hucha came with his troops, but he was reprimanded by General Hucha, so he failed to fulfill his wish. But at the end of the day,
We are about to return to the camp, and we must teach the princess a lesson."
Li Luo seemed to have remembered something, turned around and looked at Chi Li, smiled softly and said: "Why, General Chi is not afraid of Xirong's thousands of troops, but he is afraid of Princess Mu Chan?"
Chi Li's face turned red and he murmured: "General, you didn't see the way the princess looked at the general before leaving."
Li Luo was grateful that Chi Li managed to break up the melancholy atmosphere, and said with a loud smile: "This time I entered Xirong, the princess was not able to accompany me, so I must have a lot of dissatisfaction in my heart. The princess went into battle to kill the enemy without showing mercy, but speaking of her thoughtfulness,
, is not as good as you, General Hucha naturally knows the methods of his precious sister, and will definitely not let her lead the troops."
Chi Li chuckled, nodded repeatedly and said: "What the general said is true. In the army that day, even General Liu couldn't persuade the princess. In the end, General Hucha was furious and cursed him in the tent. The princess felt aggrieved.
I almost cried. But the matter was very important. The princess endured it, but before leaving, she specifically asked the general that if the general was slightly injured, he must make me look good."
Li Luo smiled hoarsely and sighed slightly for a long time: "General Chi, no one is noble or humble, just like Mu Tianlang soldiers, I am the same. We will always bring the soldiers back home safely."
After standing for a while, he said softly: "General, when I first met the general, I felt that the general is different. He is different from ordinary princes and nobles. Although General Liu loves us, he will not be like the general."
Thinking like this. The people are not noble or lowly. I always thought it was just an empty talk of the literati. Even the general thought in his heart that these people were just talking about nothing. Only when he met the general did he really know the truth.
There are still people in this world who think so."
Li Luo laughed at himself and said: "I think so, but I can't do it. I am only at the age of Luo Guan. I led an army of more than 100,000 people in the Western Expedition. I was appointed as the general of the auxiliary state. Ha, I don't know how many people are wearing sackcloth and wearing filial piety behind this.
That’s how I became what I am today.”
Chi Li murmured: "The great general said that a man is a great abnormal man. He is supposed to make contributions and achieve great fame."
Seeing that Chi Li was deep in thought, Li Luo seemed to be thinking about how many soldiers' bones were buried in the desolate place of Xifu behind the general who commanded the right battalion of the Chinese army. Li Luo walked up to Chi Li and patted Chi Li's shoulder.
.
Chi Li was startled. Li Luo smiled slightly and continued: "General Chi, there is no need to disturb yourself. Our purpose in joining the army is just to allow more people to live and work in peace and contentment, and to allow the soldiers who follow us to return home safely. That's all. We can help one person."
It's just one person. In troubled times, you can't mess with your mind. If your mind is messed up, no matter how great your fame, you can't buy peace. No one is perfect, let alone a sage. It's enough to do things based on your heart."
Chi Li's eyes lit up and he replied in a deep voice: "Chi Li understands."
Li Luo nodded, smiled, and whispered softly: "Isn't it true that the Xirong people are like this?"
Chi Li was stunned, not hearing what Li Luo said clearly, and asked: "General, what?"
Li Luo waved his hand, turned around and said, "In less than a day, Luocao Mountain will be besieged by the Xirong army. How will the army respond?"
"When General Hucha returned to the camp, he brought back a secret letter from the general and the chief military officer. The general used him as bait, and the debate in the army was quite fierce. At first, General Liu also thought that this move was too dangerous, but Hucha
The general overcame all opinions, but in the end the generals decided to act according to the plan. The last general led the elite troops to Luocao Mountain to meet the general. General Ding led a battalion of Hu cavalry to arrive soon after. After guarding Luocao Mountain, Mu Tianlang all
The army attacked from the south of Dizhou. Although the Qiang Xingzhi sent another of the Five Tiger Generals down the mountain to station in Hu Ransheng, the Lushui Camp now has more than 20,000 people, but it cannot be compared with Ning'er Peak back then.
At most, it can only slightly block our army of Shepherd Heavenly Wolf, which is unlikely to happen. If the Qiang Xingzhi comes back to support us, General Di’s army will also be able to bite the troops of the left commander of Xirong. If we cannot take care of both the tail and tail, Xirong will be in danger."
Li Luo responded and said: "For this plan, 50% of the success lies with me, Tianlang, and 50% with the Privy Council."
Chi Li nodded and said: "That day, the spies from Yingchou Gorge returned a secret report. The identity of the general was leaked, which really made the army sweat. General Liu had already decided to send troops to Dizhou to meet the general. Later, the Privy Council came to the news that the general was the general.
The general gave the order, but the generals and others were doubtful at first. Later, when General Hucha rushed back to the camp, we found out that the general had a plan in mind. Mr. Yang of the Privy Council personally wrote several confidential letters, accusing General Liu of being reckless and ineffective in assisting him.
, but the general is already in the enemy camp, Master Yang has no choice but to act according to the general’s advice.”
Li Luo smiled and said: "It seems that General Liu has suffered a lot of complaints on my behalf."
Chi Li chuckled and said, "Not only that, but the general didn't know that the emperor knew about the matter before he left. He personally issued an order for Lord Yang to secretly tell General Liu. If the general makes a slight mistake, General Liu will also die."
Li Luo smiled bitterly and said: "Uncle Zong, I specifically told you not to make this matter public, but in the end I let the emperor know about it."
"Master Yang dare not not avenge such a big thing. Otherwise, even if I, Mu Tianlang, are victorious and the emperor investigates him and punishes him for deceiving the emperor, Master Yang will have nothing to say."
Li Luo smiled slightly, but seeing that Emperor Wanlong asked the Privy Council to pass on the imperial edict, it was obvious that this matter was extremely secret. Except for Yang Wanli, no one else in the court knew about it. I just don't know if Emperor Wanlong informed Prince Chun of the matter.
Li Chengye.
"It's just," Chi Li asked with considerable doubts: "I wonder if General Di can raise his troops to hold off the Qiang Xingzhi. Furthermore, if the Qiang Xingzhi does not return reinforcements, what should we do?" (To be continued.)
