Back to the prosperous Tang Dynasty to be the emperor

Chapter 522 Battle of Funiuchuan (7)

"Report, General, the thief is following up again!"

Under a low mountain ridge, Li He's subordinates, who had rushed for half a day, stopped to rest for less than half an hour when they reported to the horse and brought bad news.

"His mother's ghost is lingering, bloody thief, let's go!"

Facing the Tubo army following behind like brown candy, Li He became furious for no reason. He wished he could raise his troops immediately to kill the carbine and tear the relentless Gar Mosodo's troops into pieces in one fell swoop. Fragments, it's a pity that he can't, it's not that he can't fight, but he can't fight, because there are too many Tubo troops around here. No matter how angry his heart was, Li He could only endure it forcibly, turned on his horse, and gave the order to turn in with a sullen face. After a while, the exhausted Tang Jun stepped on the road again amidst the smoke and dust. on the way to the west.

It has been four days, and the investigation work that should be done has already been done. Except that there are not too many Tubo troops in the west, there are [-] to [-] Tubo troops on the east and south sides, and the encirclement circle has two front and back. In addition to the tribal coalition forces wandering around, the total number of enemy troops is not less than [-]. With the remaining [-] troops left by Li He, it is basically impossible to penetrate the encirclement of the enemy without a sound. It is necessary to fight out, but how to fight has to be well planned. Regarding this, although Li He has some plans in his heart, he is not yet fully sure, so he can only pretend not to know. They slipped into the trap set by the Tubo army. Of course, in order to make the most of the tricks, Li He's troops did not hesitate to turn to the southeast and northeast. There is no doubt that they encountered large groups of soldiers every time. The enemy's interception "had to" turn back to the westward road again. As a result, the actual speed of travel was not too fast. The original five-day journey was less than four days away. half.

Not long after the Tang army left, a group of Tubo sentry sentry horses rushed to the foot of the mountain ridge. A Tubo officer dressed as a ten-captain officer turned over and got off his horse. After looking around, he picked up a still-warm The horse dung was crushed with fingers, rubbed in the palm of the hand a few times, and then thrown on the ground. Turning to inspect the horseshoe marks left by the cavalry of the Tang army, he gestured a few times with his hands, his face There was already a smirk on his face, but he didn't say much. He jumped on his horse, whistled, and led a group of his men to meet the main force of his own side that was rolling in from a distance.

"Report, General, the Tang thief just left half an hour ago, heading west, at full speed."

The captain of the ten men rushed all the way to the vicinity of Gal Mosodo, who rode his horse and stood by the road, rolled the saddle off the horse's back, touched one knee to the ground, and reported loudly.

"Okay, send a letter to the Prime Minister, saying that Tang Kou is on the way, according to the schedule, and will arrive at Funiuchuan in three days, please prepare to welcome the guests!"

After chasing madly for several days, Gar Mosuoduo was exhausted enough, but his spirit was extremely good. Hearing that Tang Jun had indeed gone west, he immediately laughed triumphantly, and turned his head to face a group of people. The clerk gave an order.

"promise."

Now that the chief general had issued the order, the clerk dared not neglect it, and hastily complied with the promise, hastily drafted a secret letter, and handed it to a personal guard with an eagle cage. The eagle soared into the sky, hovered in the sky for a while, and then spread its wings and flew west... "Zee..."

Just as the goshawk under Gar Mosodo soared into the sky, another goshawk flew from the southeast like a sharp arrow to the sky above the galloping Tang army at full speed. It seemed that it had discovered something and stopped moving forward. Fei, but let out a crisp sound, and circled over Tang Jun.

"Qu..."

There have always been many eagles on the grasslands, some wild ones, and some released by the Tubo army to monitor the movements of the Tang army. As he was running, he didn't care what the goshawk was up to, of course, there were no exceptions, Ashina Momin was one of them, when he heard the eagle's cry, Ashina Momin A joyful smile appeared on his dark face, he quickly raised his head, pinched his hands to his lips, and let out a long whistle, before the sound fell, he saw the goshawks circling in the sky making another sharp sound With a whistling sound, he swooped into the Tang army's cavalry formation, and landed on Ashina Moming's straight arm with incomparable accuracy.

"General, your Highness hastened to send me a message!"

Just when the hawk came to a complete stop, Ashinamoming threw out a piece of dried meat with his free right hand. Taking advantage of the vacancy of the goshawk's food, he swiped his hand and gently grabbed the eagle's claws. He took over the small brass pipe hanging from the eagle's claw and held it tightly in the palm of his hand without opening it. He sped up his horse and rushed to Li He's side, reporting with excitement.

Hearing what Ashina Moming said, Li He's eyes lit up in an instant, and without a word, he snatched the small brass pipe from Ashina Moming's hand, and unscrewed it familiarly. Hidden buckle, took out a scrolled confidential letter from inside, spread it out with trembling hands, and saw a large character written on it—sure, there is a line of small characters below it, which reads "Whoever swims but does not fight, loses!" .”

"The whole army stops and stands in place!"

There are not many words in the letter, and it is not difficult to understand, but to Li He, it was like a blow to the head. With a frightened mind, he had already figured out several difficult problems that have been perplexing him these days, and the corners of his mouth could not help Then he showed a slight smile of relief, but he didn't express anything else, he just raised his hand and issued a general order loudly.

"General, are you going to start a fight? Grandma, you bastard, when did our Hehuang army be in such a mess? If the tiger doesn't show its power, those stupid thieves really treat the old man as a sick cat, beat it like a dog Damn, General, you just give the order, my old man’s battle is settled!"

The Hehuang army is worthy of being an elite army. Although they are already exhausted after running around for days, once they receive the order to form an formation, their spirits and spirits change instantly. A large formation of cavalry with a murderous look, after the commanders of all ministries organized their subordinates, they quickly gathered towards the central army. Among them, Agutai had the fastest mouth. He had just rushed to the central army, and he hadn't even got off his horse. , it was already shouting loudly.

"Old man, you kid is too unreasonable. I said what are you doing so fast? It's a job grab again. Well, let's go, this time it's the turn of a certain family to be the pioneer!"

As soon as Agutai finished speaking, Wang Yu, who was rushing after him, punched Agutai unceremoniously, and laughed and cursed in great dissatisfaction.

"Old Wangtou, don't mess around, didn't you see the general is here? What a fight!" Wang Yu was running against Agutai, but he didn't expect that Zhang Chen, who arrived at the end, would sweep them in together unceremoniously. Then, without waiting for General Wang and Second General to turn their eyes against each other, he quickly moved to Li He's side, and said with a flattering smile: "General, this time it's time for the last general to play the vanguard, General, You just give the order, the final general will definitely take the dog head of Nasi Gar Mosodo!"

"enough!"

Zhang Chen's "flattery" behavior was naturally despised by the two generals Ah and Wang. The three generals laughed and laughed together, without the slightest sense of tension about the imminent battle, and neither did Li He. He stepped forward to stop the commotion of the three generals, but stood aside with a light smile, until the three generals were almost done, then he pressed his hand and let out a soft groan, stopping the commotion among the three generals.

"His Royal Highness's order has arrived, and the 'Dry Word Project' is officially launched!"

Li He didn't talk nonsense, looked around at the three generals who were standing in front of him and Tuoba Shanye who was silently standing aside, and announced succinctly.

"What? Ha, that's great!"

"Grandma, let's see where Qinling can go this time!"

"Hahaha, Your Highness is wise!"

The three generals all participated in the planning of the "Dry Character Project", so they all knew what the plan represented. After hearing that the hard work of planning for many days was not in vain, they all became excited.

"Before that, there is one more thing to do, and that is to teach the dog thieves who are following behind a lesson. Do you dare to fight?"

Li He pressed his hand to signal everyone to be quiet, gritted his teeth, and squeezed out a sinister sentence from between his teeth.

"Fight! Kill him!"

"No problem, General, just give your order, I will fight to the death!"

"I didn't say anything, cut off that guy's dog's head and used it as a chamber pot!"

The three generals have been persecuted by the Tubo people these days, and they have already held back their anger, but because of the general's orders, they have nowhere to vent their anger. How can they not be happy when they hear that they are finally able to fight? He roared wildly at the top of his voice, causing all the soldiers of the Tang Army behind him to look sideways.

"What does General Tuoba think about this?"

Li He ignored the roars of the generals, but turned his attention to Tuoba Shanye who was silent, and asked in an equal tone.

"General, the last general has no objection, but this battle must be fast and ruthless, and we must not be entangled in the battle. If the enemy retreats, our troops must be transferred as soon as possible."

Although Li He's words were calm, Tuoba Shanye could hear a hint of respect from inside. It was obvious that Li He had accepted Tuoba Shanye as his deputy at this time, which made Li He, who had been drifting away from the command hierarchy, Tuoba Shanye outside couldn't help feeling a little excited, but on such occasions, it was not the time to express emotion, and Tuoba Shanye could only answer matter-of-factly.

"That's right, that's exactly what it should be. Listen carefully, this battle must not be delayed. If the enemy dares to come, kill him with all your might!"

Although Tuoba Shanye didn't explain the reasoning behind it, Li He understood it as soon as he heard it. He secretly sighed in his heart about Tuoba Shanye's military strategy, but he didn't say much. He just nodded and said loudly. ordered.

"promise!"

Although the three generals are not ordinary people, they are not comparable to Li He in terms of military strategy. Regarding the meaning of Tuoba Shanye's words, they only saw through the superficial meaning and did not notice the mystery. , I didn't take it very seriously, but since Li He had given the order, I didn't dare to disobey it, so they all agreed loudly, and each galloped back to the main formation.
