Five-five-five festivals(1/2)
.
Buyi rarely leads the army himself.
Although he personally conquered Hebei, he was more involved in the behind-the-scenes, giving advice and encouraging morale. As for the siege of cities and villages, he was handed over to his generals to deal with it.
When Qin Shubao heard that Xiao Buyi was going to attack Li Daozong with heavy troops, Qin Shubao frowned. Xiao Buyi asked, "General Qin, do you disagree?"
Qin Shubao pondered: "The current situation in Hebei is complicated."
"I know."
"As far as I know, the forces involved include Li Tang, Hebei remnants, us, and Turkic soldiers."
Xiao Buyi nodded and smiled in a flash: "I can actually bet with you that the Turkic soldiers will not send troops these days."
Qin Shubao was surprised and said, "Why is the King of Xiliang so sure? Do you have the last move to the Turkic soldiers?"
"No." Xiao Buyi shook his head and said, "But the Turkic soldiers are used to being comfortable, comfortable, and flattered. They do not take the people of the Central Plains seriously because they are begged to send troops to harvest and show off, not to suffer. How could such soldiers send troops in such weather?"
Qin Shubao laughed in silence, "Although I believe the judgment of the King of Xiliang, I must make some preparations. However, according to the news, after the Turkic soldiers passed Changping, they have been moving around the northernmost county, and they are indeed a little far away from us. Now we are deploying troops north to the mainland Ze and Gaojipo, echoing east and west, looking north across the Zhang River to look at the Li Tang and Hebei Army, and it can be said to be sitting on the mountain to watch the tiger fight. The Li Tang army's offensive has been fierce recently. The Zhao County adjacent to our north of Zhao County has Li Daozong's soldiers to fight us, and Xin has Li Tang soldiers lurking. Zhao County, north of Xindu, from west to east, are Hengshan, Boling and Hejian counties. Li Xiaoji's army is located more than 200 miles northeast of the mainland Ze, and the Tuo River bank is stationed there. There can be said to be the heavy troops of Li Tang. Li Shimin brought Xuanjia Tianshang into Hejian, and the direction is northeast of Li Xiao Base."
Qin Shubao's Kung Fu's Talk has drawn the sphere of influence on both sides on the map.
The Zhang River can be said to divide Hebei into two parts: north and south. The Xiliang Army is located south of the Zhang River and has heavy troops. The Li Tang army is distributed in Hebei. It also presents an inverted trapezoid north of the Zhang River. It is based on Zhaojun and Xindu. Hebei was originally the foundation of the Hebei army. But the Hebei army is now extremely miserable. It only accounts for half of the Hejian land. It is at the waist of the inverted trapezoidal land.
After listening to Qin Shubaodi's analysis, Xiao Buyi nodded and said, "You are already very clear about it. But I have known this a long time ago."
Qin Shubao said cautiously: "Now our decisive battle location is here..." A circle was drawn at Qilijing northwest of Leshou. Qin Shubao said: "That is, using Liu Hei as the breakthrough point. We rely on Liu Hei as the sharp knife to resist the Li Tang army swarming south. Li Tang obviously wanted to remove this nail and then pour it into our territory."
"Liu Hei probably didn't expect that he would become so important." Xiao Buyi murmured.
"He didn't expect it. But others thought it." Qin Shubao said seriously: "Although they don't know Li Shimin and the real intention of Li Xiao's base. But from the current distribution, they should take advantage of the fierceness of Youzhou and do their best to destroy the Hebei army in one battle! Then they will fight against us in a comprehensive way on the front line of Zhanghe River in Hebei. If they can destroy our army in full, occupy Hebei in full, and then draw the Yellow River as the boundary, and form a surround of the eastern capital. The situation is not optimistic about us."
Xiao Buyi nodded and said, "It makes sense."
"If we let them go, and the Turkic soldiers go south, we may not lose, but the losses will be heavy. So in my opinion, we should help Liu Hei, and not let him perish without help. Our enemy is Li Shimin and Li Xiaoji, instead of Li Daozong, who should have heavy troops attacked Zhaojun and did not play a decisive role. To fight Guanzhong, we must go to Hedong first, and Hedong, and Hebei we must take it. In the face of Li Tang, we must use the sharpest soldiers in the most critical duel."
Qin Shubao analyzed the current situation in detail, expressed his views cautiously, and then looked at Xiao Buyi as expected.
He knew that Xiao Buyi would definitely give him an explanation.
Xiao Buyi said: "General Qin, what you said is not much different from General Li's analysis."
Qin Shubao raised his eyebrows, "General Li is now attacking Chen Faxing, do you have any eyebrows?"
The world was in chaos, and bandits in the south of the Yangtze River flocked, but since Wang Shichong defected to the Eastern Capital, all bandits in the Jianghuai River were peaceful, and only the bandits south of the Yangtze River were Shen Faxing's family.
Shen Faxing was still breathless and there was no place to turn over. However, Li Jing had not yet won Shen Faxing, which surprised Qin Shubao a little. However, he knew that Li Jing and Xiao Buyi were both wise people, so he asked casually.
Xiao Buyi smiled slyly, "General Li is almost gone."
Qin Shubao said with shame: "If General Li comes to Hebei, there may be a better way."
Xiao Buyi shook his head and said, "It's similar to the general army. General Li wins by surprise. He has always been paying attention to Hebei. Our strategies and his suggestions are almost once a day or two. He agrees with your occupation of Daluze and Gaojipo. But I want to ask, what is the purpose of Li Daozong?"
"Restrain us to send troops to aid the Hebei army and disrupt the situation of the war." Qin Shubao said without hesitation.
Xiao Buyi smiled and said, "This is the result they most expect, so we must fight, and we must beat them hard, so that they know that we are being held back by them. And they not only restrained us, but also wanted them to start reinforcements.
If we suddenly increase our troops in Hejian, we are afraid that we will get into this bottomless pit. We will never know how much troops we invest is the end. However, if we can make Li Daozong complain and withdraw Li Tang's troops in Hejian, the result will be similar."
Qin Shubao finally smiled, "I understand what the King of Xiliang means. They want to attract your troops, so you want to fight back with the other way, and heavy troops will hold their troops, and then plan other things?"
Xiao Buyi smiled and said, "That's exactly!"
Qin Shubao said: "Then why are we hesitating? The battle in Tuoshui is urgent. I wonder when the King of Xiliang is going to send troops?"
"It's now!" Xiao Buyi said without hesitation.
**
The rain is falling all the time, sometimes slow and sometimes tight.
When the Xiliang Army lurked in the ground, it was like a creeping tiger, and when it sent troops, it was like a cheetah preyed on!
As soon as Xiao Buyi said he would send troops, Uncle Qin immediately arranged the arrangement, and then Dalu Ze started to move. It was an extremely orderly state. After years of war, the Western Liang army had been operating like a mechanical one.
This kind of machinery is not rigid, but forms a terrifying rule.
If you look down from Qianyan Mountain to the southeast of the Mainland Ze, you will find that the originally silent Mainland Ze suddenly becomes flowing.
What flows is not the swamp mud and water accumulation, but the Western Liang Iron Army.
The iron army flowed out of the iron-beaten camp, out of the corners of the mountain, and through the ravines
The stream then formed a torrent in front of Qianyan Mountain, and the surging direction
The rain also seemed to be swept into the torrent, and the turbulence was turbulent.
The army was moving forward, except for the sound of footsteps, horse hooves, rain falling, and flags rushing. The army was moving forward in a very vast way, but there was an unspeakable silence in the vast way. This silence echoed between heaven and earth, and formed a terrifying force, pushing the army forward.
That kind of silence, that torrent gathered in Qianyan Mountain, and then rushed all the way northward, rolling towards Baigou!
**
The Xiliang Army has sent troops from Daluze!
The Western Liang army launched heavy attacks!
The Xiliang Army dispatched at least cavalry, and 30,000 infantry troops attacked in the direction of Baigou!
The Xiliang Army is still increasing its troops, and the reinforcements are unknown because the spies ahead have disappeared, and it is suspected that they have been killed by the assassins sent by the Xiliang Army!
Li Daozong frowned, as if facing a great enemy. The drums in the camp sounded loudly, and the Li Tang army efficiently sent troops quickly and quickly arranged Baigou to welcome Li Tang, Dongdu, the first battle that began in Hebei.
Li Tang was disciplined and sent troops in an orderly manner. Compared with the Western Liang army, it was difficult to distinguish between Xuanyuan and Xuanyuan.
When Li Daozong sent troops, he couldn't help but feel palpitations. He didn't expect that Xiao Buyi was really serious.
Xiao Buyi's fierce troops sent out, which made him extremely shocked. Originally, the two armies had a war, knowing themselves and their enemies, and winning every battle. There were spies in the Western Liang army spying on his military situation, so of course he also arranged people to pay attention to Xiao Buyi's movements near Qianyan Mountain.
As soon as Xiao Buyi sent out his troops, the first wave of spies had already spread the news. Unexpectedly, after only four groups of news, many spies from Daluze to Baigou disappeared.
Was he killed by Xiao Buyi? How could Li Daozong not be shocked when he thought about this?
In this kind of weather, Xiao Buyi was crazy? Li Daozong complained secretly, but he had to wait for the war. In fact, he did not think that Xiao Buyi would send troops. His restraint was just a stopgap solution. He did not think that Xiao Buyi would give up Leshou and instead attack him heavily.
He could not have imagined that Xiao Buyi sent troops.
Isn’t it a lot of times that the opponent will never imagine?
The Xiliang army dispatched not only cavalry, infantry, and assassins who killed opponents. The operations of these people were obviously extremely efficient. In a very short time, they cleared their opponents' eyeliners and left their opponents in a state of stagnation of news.
Li Daozong was just confused at the moment. He could not tell whether the opponent was a feint attack or a large army was approaching. The opponent had sent 30,000 troops and was constantly in reinforcements, so he had to do it with caution.
The Xiliang Army is only thirty miles away from Baigou!
The vanguard of the Western Liang Army was only fifteen miles away from Baigou!
Ten miles, five miles...
News kept coming, and spies from the newly sent out to avoid the sound of hooves. The air was filled with the atmosphere of war that was about to come. The wind and rain seemed to be shaken by murderous aura, so they temporarily avoided and did not dare to stop at this ten miles apart.
Then Li Daozong heard the sound of hooves without waiting for military information. The rain filled the sky, and there was no war in the sky, but the sound of hooves like rolling thunder was already thrilling.
The Western Liang Army did not bluff like the Li Tang Army had bluffed a few times ago, but instead accumulated strength to attack!
The situation has been clear, but Li Daozong is still hesitating whether he wants to cross Baigou to resist?
Although he was responsible for restraining the army in the Eastern Capital; although he claimed that he was the younger generation of the Li family, he was not inferior to Li Shimin, but unfortunately his life was not good; although he had been preparing for a while, because of the inertia of confrontation, Li Daozong always felt that his opponent would not be forced. Because of these ideas, he always used Baigou as a natural barrier, and set up camp behind Baigou to do defensive fortifications, but before Baigou, he had never had the idea of doing fortifications.
In fact, Li Tang has been suppressed for too long. Whether it is Qianshuiyuan, Baibi, or Hebei, it is often mainly engaged in a protracted war. The Western Liang Iron Cavalry ravaged the world, and Li Daozong was very dissatisfied.
This is a kind of despise in the bones.
What is Xiao Buyi? A horse official started his career and barely climbed into the horse dealer of the royal relatives. After getting the opportunity, he became arrogant and domineering. How could such a person, a nouveau riche, be comparable to the elegance and nobility of the family for hundreds of years?
Li Daozong wanted to fight over the ditch, but finally rationally suppressed his feelings. He wanted to focus on guard. He came here to attract Xiao Buyi's army. Now that his goal is successful, why bother to make trouble if he is too successful?
Li Daozong finally ordered a fight based on Baigou!
After ordering, Li Tang's army had already rushed to Baigou, staring at the south with a fierce look, waiting for the appearance of the Western Liang army.
Baigou is a natural crack in the Dao. The widest part is nearly ten feet, and the depth is several feet. It is usually full of strange rocks and thorns in the ditch. Now after heavy rain, the ditch is in chaos and full of debris. This natural defense, coupled with the good combat between Li Tang and the local government, is enough to resist the opponent in the eyes of Li Daozong.
The Xiliang army finally arrived, and the one who rushed to Baigou was a team of cavalry like the wind.
The silent cavalry shouted, and did not rush to attack, but scattered to both sides. Then another team of cavalry appeared and lined up along the white ditch. They were obviously experienced and had an arrow from the Li Tang army and could not move forward.
The Li Tang army was squeezing the long bow and ready to go. When they saw the opponent's position, they could only endure it. They could not waste the feather arrows doing useless things. If the opponent did not attack, they could wait for a day, or a year!
Li Daozong frowned secretly, thinking that these cavalrymen were well-known for their good combat, and that Xiao Buyi's reputation was not without reason.
The two teams of cavalry made Li Daozong put away his contempt. He saw the cavalry lined up, and they didn't attack or retreat, and they lined up like statues across the Baigou. For a moment, they didn't know what medicine they were selling.
There were cavalry replenishment, and within half an hour, there were seven or eight thousand cavalry.
Li Tangjun was already dazed.
The Western Liang army did not seem to want to fight, but it seemed to be showing off.
They knew that Xiao Buyi was born as a Taifu Shaoqing and was just a horse-raising official, but they never dreamed that Xiao Buyi could take out seven or eight thousand cavalry at will.
No one knows whether these are the invincible and invincible black armored iron cavalry. But everyone knows that now he is dominant with his horsepower and casually pulls out seven or eight thousand cavalry. Except for the Turks, only the Western Liang army has the capital.
