Volume 6 Suddenly Chapter 68 The blade is thirsty for blood, I think about horses
That guy's expression was so tired. That guy once secretly glanced at her like this. Whether it was by the wetlands of the academy, Hongxiuzhao, or the green lake in Yanbei, his eyes often swept over her.
He thought she didn't know the curves of her chest, waist, hips and legs, but in fact she knew everything, but she was embarrassed to say it.
The person Situ Yilan remembered was naturally Ning Que. She did not suddenly recall her past youth when she was facing a desperate situation and began to think about spring, but just wanted to gain some strength from it - the veterans in the camp were very similar to Ning Que.
They all have unimaginable tenacity and can do things that many people cannot imagine.
But what made her feel a little sad was that the veterans still felt unwilling to accept the indifferent expressions of the veterans, especially when they saw the war horses led by her personal soldiers, the envy and discomfort in their eyes were clearly visible.
Yes, that's the problem.
Situ Yilan bowed her head and thought, why did the court agree to cede Xiang Wanyuan to the Golden Treasure Royal Court when he negotiated with Xiling Temple, and why did he agree to use the war horse compensation account and Yan State? Yes, the situation was indeed very serious at that time, but
Doesn’t the court know that if you agree to the other party’s conditions, it would be equivalent to suicide?
The black noose slowly landed in the air for several years, and now it finally landed on the grassland and in front of every soldier in Zhenbei Army.
Even the people of Chang'an knew about things, so the ministers in the court naturally knew about it. Prince Li Peiyan even died of it because of this. Situ Yilan knew very well that this was the decision of the academy.
To be more precise, these are Ning Que's decisions.
Why did the academy agree back then?
Walking to the tent, looking at the man and a woman at the table, Situ Yilan was in a strange mood. She was a student of the academy, and these two people could truly represent the academy. Thinking about her previous dissatisfaction with the academy, she didn't know what to say.
The light yellow dress that Muyou is most used to wearing has long been replaced by practical cotton coats. Senior Brother Six is still wearing a leather circumference like he did when he was in the back mountain of the academy.
Situ Yilan could not speak any ill words to these two academy gentlemen, because in these days they should have sat upright like gods and lived and fought like ordinary soldiers.
The form of war has long changed. The assassination of the enemy's chief general by the strong practitioners has never been cut off and has been staged. If it weren't for Muyou's formation master, several exquisite formations were arranged in the camp. If it weren't for Liu
The gentleman waved the wind and thunder with a hammer. I don’t know how many Tang would die under the assassination of the Golden Tent Royal Court at any cost. As for Mr. Liu, he restlessly sleeps all night and repairs the Tang army’s weapons. Those things need not be mentioned.
Situ Yilan found that there was one person missing in the tent and asked, "Where has Mr. Fourth been?"
The fourth Mr. Fan Yue of the Academy is now the think tank of the Zhenbei Army's vanguard. General Hua Ying trusts him very much. He has done everything in the construction of the camp and even the planning on the battlefield.
Muyou took out a towel from the basin and twisted it slightly, walked to her, wiped off all the dust on her face, and said pity: "Where does he go... Such a beautiful little girl, although she can't dress up.
, have to clean it up."
Situ Yilan was not in the mood to care about her face. She couldn't help but smile bitterly when she heard this. When she remembered the formation of the golden tent royal court that she had seen on the meadow, she returned to her heavy mood. She looked at Muyou and asked in a low voice: "Three
When will the sir take action? When will the strong men and the wild people of Mingzong arrive?"
The current situation is extremely beneficial to Zhenbei Army. She can't think of any changes. However, General Xu Chi is still so calm. She naturally thinks that the academy must have arranged many back-and-forth players.
After many consecutive days and nights, Mu You's eyebrows and eyes were full of fatigue. Listening to Situ Yilan's words, she was silent for a moment and said, "I don't know the whereabouts of my senior sister."
Listening to this, Situ Yilan was disappointed and was disappointed again.
"In theory or the original plan, in early spring, she should have pacified the Eastern Wilderness and come here... She should have taken action, but she didn't take action at this time, or because it was not yet the time, there was a reason."
Muyou sat down with her, asked her to eat breakfast quickly, and said comfortingly.
...
...
Everything that goes against common sense must have its own internal reasons. For the army, common sense is an objective judgment of victory or defeat and the calm response that follows.
Huaying stood outside the camp, looking at the bloody morning glow, and looking at the countless tents of the Golden Tent Royal Court vaguely visible in the distance, and always felt that the general's response was unreasonable. So what is the reason?
A staff officer handed a pair of telescopes in front of him.
He took the telescope and looked in the direction of the Golden Tent Royal Court, then looked to the east and north for dozens of miles away. He observed silently for a long time, and never said a word.
The telescope was made by the academy and was taken to the front line by Mr. Liu. Now, the important generals of the Zhenbei Army are almost all equipped with one. Once the generals use it, they will immediately regard it as a treasure and will no longer let it leave.
Hua Ying was very moved that with the help of the academy, he could see the mobilization of the Jinguan Wangting clearly, but the other party was unaware of it. If it were put in that year, the Zhenbei Army would definitely win in this war.
Especially now, Shanyu took a strange risk to urge the entire tribe to attack the south. He wanted to fight a battle to destroy the country, but he ignored any retreat and had an unparalleled march and formation. But in the eyes of the mature Tang generals
, there are also many loopholes. As long as you can send a powerful cavalry, you will definitely be able to fight the opponent.
"If... give me ten thousand... no, even eight thousand."
Hua Ying put down the telescope and looked at the north, and said with a trembling voice: "Give me eight thousand good horses, and I can guard the Gu River and even drive them to the north of Weicheng."
Shanyu's choice was too confident. In Huaying's opinion, this was a good opportunity, so his voice trembled slightly. Losing this opportunity seemed to be an unbearable pain in his opinion.
Xu Chi firmly believed that Zhenbei Army could defeat the cavalry of the Jinzhang Wangting in the field, which made Hua Ying very puzzled. He would not question the military order, but just thought in pain that it would be fine if he could have more than 10,000 war horses.
But that won't be.
Even if Haotian descends back to the world, there is no way to transform the Tang Kingdom into 10,000 mature war horses that have received military training and can become cavalry mounts in such a short time.
The royal court in the Golden Tent dared to carry his clan to the south. The Shanyu's march and formation were so confident and even arrogant. He had no fear of tomorrow's final decisive battle in the wilderness. Isn't it because he knew that the Tang Kingdom had no horses?
Many Tang soldiers fantasized whether the court would secretly raise many war horses, waiting to give the enemy the heaviest and most sudden blow on the final battlefield? But that was a fantasy after all, and the Shanyu would not think so.
Raising horses requires a lot of forage, stables, manpower, and resources. Such a large number of war horses cannot be secretly kept in various prefectures and counties in the Tang Dynasty, and can hide the ubiquitous suspicion of Taoist sects, even if they can. Those who have not been trained,
What is the use of a horse that has never been on the battlefield?
Horse, war horse, war horse that has been through the battlefield for a long time.
Situ Yilan was thinking, the cavalrymen were thinking, Hua Ying was thinking, everyone was thinking, and they were crying in despair and angrily, why are there no horses?
No need for war horses that have been through the battlefield for a long time, even if they are just an ordinary horse, as long as they can move with cavalry, whether they are a sturdy stallion, a graceful mare, a naughty foal, a Hetao horse, or a big river
Pony, prairie horse, any horse is fine! Any horse is fine!
Because there is no horse, the Tang Dynasty will really not work.
...
...
In the Zhenbei Army, only General Xu Chi still maintained his last confidence.
Yu Lian did not appear in this grassland. The national magistrate of the Golden Tent and the more than ten high priests still did not come to the front line, but was in the rear, protected by the grassland cavalry.
Xu Chi's confidence did not come from Yu Lian or the Demon Sect walking in Tang. He had already received information from Helan City. The deserted tribe was restrained by the temple cavalry from Yan State in the East Wilderness. In a short period of time, he could not come to help.
.
This is naturally extremely bad news. Fortunately, dozens of days ago, he received another news, which came from the academy, bringing the spring breeze he had been waiting for for a long time.
Countless large cars had already left the town where Beidaying was located and transported to the rear of the Gu River, hiding in the baggage camp of the main force of the Zhenbei Army. In order to keep it secret until the end, even Huaying didn't know.
...
...
Before dawn came, the bright moon had already fallen asleep, a faint white floated in the east, and a few dull stars remained on the night sky in the west. People on the grassland had woken up, and in the countless tents that were filled with clouds.
There were the hilarious sounds of children and the whispers of women everywhere, and of course the most were the sound of scimitars colliding with leather armor, the uneasy neighing of war horses, and the crackling sound of hay.
According to the grassland cavalry practice, no one dared to bring his family with him when he went to war, but this time the royal family invaded the south by the Jinguan royal court, which was the real family. All men took their wives, children and slaves, which made the Shanyu and the nobles feel relieved.
Yes, because of a lot of preparations in advance, these did not become burdens for the warriors, but became the best existence that inspired them to bravely kill the Tang people.
The warriors in the Golden Tent have finished their entire team, with a solemn expression and firm eyes. The cavalry of various tribes is also wearing leather armor and tidying up their swords and arrows with the help of slaves or families, and quickly line up.
This was the darkest time before dawn, but the Jinguan cavalry did not want to take advantage of the darkness to attack the Tang army in the south, because darkness was not fair to everyone, and the cavalry needed a good vision because of its speed. Now Jin
The cavalry has an absolute advantage and naturally will not take such risks.
The reason why we started to assemble arrays so early is based on the needs of war and the combat experience of all grassland cavalry imprinted into our bloodlines. Today is bound to be an extremely hard long-term battle. People can persist by their spiritual will, but war horses cannot.
Do it, so before entering the battlefield, you must feed the war horses well, use the most exquisite forage and even add some expensive grains and beans to replenish enough water, and finally, feed salt.
All these preparations must be completed two hours before the formal war, and after two hours, the iron cavalry in the golden tent will sweep away and swallow everything.

(There are some problems in the schedule of the past two days, and it is a little confused. It is very likely that the update will not be possible tomorrow. If it fails, I will report it to everyone and will reply to normal the day after tomorrow.) (To be continued...)
