Chapter 293

The sky is tilted, and it is almost dusk before you know it.

The soldiers who invited people had been dispatched, taking advantage of this gap, Li Jing took a sip of tea, with a look of relief on his face.

"It is really a blessing that the generals of the border towns were able to escape from the minions of the Tuyuhun army."

"Being in the hinterland of the army must also know some more important military situations. This will be extremely beneficial for the deployment of the soldiers of the Great Tang Dynasty."

After holding the teacup and raising it towards Qin Feng at the side of the hall, Li Jing spoke loudly.

"Qinzhou Mu."

"You rule a corner of Lingzhou, bordering on the land of Liangzhou. In the entire hall, only you are most familiar with the surrounding terrain and mountains,"

"I would like to trouble the state pastor to inform you in detail."

As a general, he used modest words to himself, even though he was wrong before, it still made Qin Feng a little flattered.Hastily got up and cupped his hands, picked up the teacup in return.

Tilting over the teapot and pouring a small puddle of water stains, Qin Feng dipped in the water stains and roughly outlined the terrain of the mountain stream on the desk.

The map of the Tang Dynasty was rough, so a few strokes outlined the outline. Looking up at the generals who came up to watch, Qin Feng was a little nervous. He cleared his throat and pointed to the triangle mark behind him before speaking.

"This is the land of Liangzhou, which has now been invaded by the Tuyuhun army and reduced to a barbarian camp."

"I heard that the people who escaped set up barbarian general tents in the four corners of the city, but they were loosely guarded in the city. Maybe it's because the barbarians, who are used to wandering in the grasslands, don't like to live in houses when they go in and out of the middle land."

Pooh!
Cheng Yaojin didn't bother to take a sip, and yelled out his thick throat.

"Uncivilized people are vulgar, and they don't enjoy the blessings. They can't live on their own, and they drive the people here to do these things that are devoid of conscience."

Seeing Qin Feng's apologetic smile, Cheng Yaojin patted Qin Feng's shoulder with his big palm, and spoke in a low voice.

"Keep talking, you know everything."

Looking beyond this triangle, moving westward to Stone Town on the border, Qin Feng marked a circle.

"This is where Stone City is."

"It was originally a large trading town of various ethnic groups in the Central Plains and grasslands. This time, I heard that the rich Han merchants and people in the town were plundered and slaughtered, while the barbarian shops were not damaged at all."

"It must be that the barbarians still have some reservations, so that they can communicate with each other here and get what they need."

After talking about these two important places, Qin Feng got up and told the whole picture of Lingzhou.

"We have a lot of wind and sand here, and it is mainly cold throughout the year. The mountains are often covered with ice and snow. Most of the villagers' villages are built near the mountains for the convenience of drinking water. The forest is lush and easy to hide."

"The open land like the central one is flat and smooth, but there are few oases and residents."

After hearing these words, many generals stroked their chins, and their faces became dignified.

Li Jing sat at the head of the hall, looked at the map carefully, and sighed softly.

"The barbarian army is mostly cavalry, and they move quickly. Such an open terrain will be the advantage of the cavalry."

"Our Great Tang expedition to the west, this time with only [-] usable soldiers in the army, although the cavalry accounted for half, but compared with Tuyuhun's vast army, it is completely inferior."

"This wide field cannot be used."

"Battle in the Green Forest..."

The voice was average, Li Jing did not continue to speak.

Marching and fighting emphasizes the right time, place and people, but now the disadvantages are obvious.

Needless to say the weather, the grassland people are all fur coats, and they have long been accustomed to the desolation and cold here, and they are definitely much better than the Central Plains people who live in hotbeds for a long time.

As for the geography, not to mention, this is the wild riding area.

The only thing to rely on is Renhe, the momentum of the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty, and the miraculous effect of the surprise attack.

There was no sound in the entire hall, everyone looked dignified, and sat in their respective chairs in silence.

The soldiers outside the hall reported that the defenders of the city and the frontier came.

"Enter!"

After Li Jing's words fell, a figure walked into the hall calmly, his gaze quickly passed over the lieutenant general in the hall, and he knelt down and clasped his fists.

"The defeated Zhang Yi, I have met Li Shuai, all generals."

The figure was wearing broken battle armor that hadn't been washed for many days. Dried blood stains mixed with mud and dust filled the knife marks and sword marks. Half of the arm armor and the hem of the armor suit were burnt black, and the shoulder armor had long since disappeared.With that disheveled hair, he looked extremely embarrassed.

This honor made many generals feel nervous, apart from surprise, there was more admiration in their eyes.

Li Jing looked at the figures in the hall, was silent for a moment, then got up and walked around the desk, said.

"General Zhang, don't be too polite."

Zhang Yi, who was half kneeling on the ground, lowered his head and cupped his hands again.

"The word general is not worthy of an official. He is just a defeated soldier who lost his city on the border of the western frontier."

"It's my honor to go back to the city today. If Li Canjun didn't have an important entrustment, how would I have the face to meet Li Shuai?"

Li joined the army?
Li Xian?

The complexions of the generals present here changed slightly, and they all looked over involuntarily.

Li Jing strode forward, dragged Zhang Yi's arm, glanced at the dirty clothes embedded in the wound on his arm, suddenly moved in his heart, and swung his arm.

"Give a seat to General Zhang!"

After saying that, he patted Zhang Yi's arched fist with his palm.

"Speak slowly, don't worry."

Thanks for the gift, Zhang Yi sat on the seat moved by the guards, exhaled a foul breath, and told how Li Xian saved everyone and the valley, and how he led dozens of people to Qingqi to Atugun's camp for revenge.

The thrilling and bizarre battles were told one by one, which only surprised everyone present, even Li Jing, who was good at surprise attacks, was shocked.

After some talking, there was a sound of breathing in the whole hall, Zhang Yi's mind was slowly stirring, he looked at Li Jing, who was the first one with a surprised expression, and continued to speak.

"When the lower officials returned to the city, Li Canjun urged in every possible way that the army should just wait for the opportunity to attack, and not let this small team mess things up."

"Tuyuhun has an army of [-], with a great reputation. Whether it is forcible or humble ministers, Qiangzhou and Lingzhou are in danger."

Zhang Yi looked at Li Jing who was sitting silently in the hall, and slowly cupped his hands.

"General, the words are here. I implore the general to let me lead hundreds of soldiers and horses to assist Li to join the army, so that I can have a support in the vast army's search and arrest."

In the hall, there was silence.

The generals could understand that this Li Xian was clearly planning to turn the entire Tuyuhun camp upside down, to echo with the Tang army, so as to wait for the opportunity when the army was caught by the nose.

Cheng Yaojin let out two puffs of rough air, frowned and stood up.

"No! It's too dangerous!"

"Li Xian has already humiliated and defeated one of the leaders and tribes, which will definitely arouse public outrage. The nearly 20 troops dispatched, even if they surround it, they can completely surround Kuoye."

"They have a team of less than a hundred people. Now they are not retreating but advancing. Isn't this courting death?"

After the words fell, Li Daozong really couldn't bear it in his heart, he wanted to stand up for a while, and cupped his hands towards the first person in the hall.

"Li Shuai, this Li Xian is your heir, everything is up to you to decide."

"Whether to lead the tribe to rescue or let them run around on the grassland, I agree with all of them, without any complaints."

"Just waiting for your words."

Having said that, many generals got up to persuade them.

After all, this man's heart is full of flesh, whoever he is, would not want to just watch his heir fall into the jaws of a tiger.

Zhang Yi was even more frightened and knelt down hastily.

"Li Shuai, the lower officials don't know Li Xian's original identity. If they find out, they will drag him back even if it's a drag."

"Xiaguan has been traveling in this area for more than half a month, and is very familiar with this vast field..."

"No need."

The first figure in the hall raised his palm to interrupt Zhang Yi's words, and there was no trace of waves in the quiet words.

"On the battlefield, why divide the generals and soldiers? They are all the people who work for the Great Tang general."

Standing in the hall with his hands behind his back, Li Jing let out a long sigh of relief.

"Xian'er said that, naturally he has some thoughts in his heart..."

With a big wave of his hand, he covered up the downcast look in the corner of his eyes.

"Forget about this, discuss the war!"
