Chapter 237 The party members are here
"Red Flag Probe Horse! This is a major military event!" Cao Mata, who was upstairs, stood up excitedly and said loudly. The so-called Red Flag Probe Horse is a command mechanism established by Cao Wei in the border army. Generally, only when encountering particularly important military intelligence, the probe will plant a triangular red flag on his back and run wildly. No one is allowed to stop it, otherwise it will be useless to kill him.
"The Red Flag Probe came from the northwest direction. Could it be that the Dangxiang people are finally going to take action?" Hu Yan Shouxin said excitedly at this time. He and Cao Ma are both young and strong sects in the army, and they look forward to fighting every day. After all, where can they get military merits if they don't fight? How can they get promoted without military merits?
"It's very likely!" Li Zhang also spoke at this time. There was nothing worth exploring the Red Flag to explore the horse recently except for the Dangxiang people.
Because of the appearance of the Red Flag Probe, Li Zhang and the others were no longer interested in chatting. So after finishing the meal, Li Zhang was instigated by Cao Ma and others to go to Qingzhou to find out the news. Because they had military orders, they usually walked around the border city at most and could not leave the military camp at all. Instead, Li Zhang was relatively free.
Li Zhang rushed back to Qingzhou as quickly as possible. As soon as he arrived at the tutor's office, he felt a tense atmosphere. When he asked to see Cao Wei, he was rejected for the first time because Cao Wei was discussing military affairs with several major generals, and Li Zhang did not even have the qualifications to attend, which made him almost certain that what Cao Wei discussed should be related to the Red Flag Probing Horse.
Li Zhang waited in the yamen for nearly an hour before seeing several generals leaving in a hurry. Then Cao Wei summoned him. As soon as he saw the other party, Cao Wei immediately spoke: "The Dangxiang people are coming, and they are heading straight for our Qingzhou. It seems that Li Deming is going to avenge his son."
"Now Brother Cao and Brother Hu Yan are finally happy. They still have to complain about why Dangxiang people have not come yet." Li Zhang couldn't help but smile when he heard this. Since he had known that Dangxiang people were coming, he was not surprised.
"It is a good thing for young people to not be timid when encountering wars. They may become one of the best young people in the generals in the future!" Cao Wei couldn't help laughing when he heard this. Cao Ma is his son, and he has always brought him by his side to train him. However, Cao Ma is young after all, and he had no experience in leading troops alone before. This time the Musketeers were also a training for him.
When Li Zhang heard Cao Wei's three words, he kept silent, but he smiled and said nothing. In fact, it is already well known that the decline of talents among the generals is a fact that Cao Wei can cultivate a few talents, but he cannot change the trend of the generals' decline. Of course, there is no way out. It's just that now is not the time to say these things.
"General, where is Dangxiang's army now? When will it arrive in Qingzhou?" Li Zhang asked again at this time.
"According to the news brought by the Detective, Li Deming led a 30,000 Dangxiang army to leave Xingzhou three days ago. It is estimated that it will reach the border in another five or six days. I have ordered the army below to gather and prepare for a head-on battle with the Dangxiang people. As long as this battle is won, it will be safe for at least five years of safety on the border!" Cao Wei said ambitiously at the moment.
"If Li Deming can be killed, with Li Yuanhao's current situation, it may trigger civil strife in Dangxiang. If our Song Dynasty takes the opportunity to attack, it may be able to completely resolve the threat of Dangxiang!" Li Zhang suddenly spoke and suggested.
Originally, Li Yuanhao was the indisputable heir of Li Deming, but now he is not only disfigured, but also has his legs disabled. Such people are generally unable to be heirs. Li Yuanhao also has two younger brothers, and Dangxiang is originally divided into several factions. Now with Li Deming suppression, of course no one dares to cause trouble. But if Li Deming dies, Dangxiang will have civil strife immediately.
Cao Wei's eyes lit up when he heard Li Zhang's words, but soon he shook his head and said, "Although this method is good, it may be unrealistic to kill Li Deming. You have never dealt with Li Deming, so you may not know him very well. This guy is just an old fox, treacherous and slippery, and it makes people unable to catch any handle. If it weren't for Li Yuanhao's affairs this time, he wouldn't be so impulsive. Moreover, he has always been very concerned about his own safety and is usually in the army. It's too difficult to kill him."
Cao Wei is eight years older than Li Deming. When Li Deming's father Li Jiqian was still alive, Cao Wei had fought with Li Deming. Later, Li Jiqian passed away. Li Deming inherited the power of Dangxiang and even fought with Cao Weiming for many years, so the two were very familiar with each other.
"Not necessarily, after all, anything can happen on the battlefield. If we can defeat the Dangxiang army in one battle, it is possible to kill Li Deming among the enemy." Li Zhang did not give up at this time.
"Haha~, it is also a good thing for young people to dare to think and do. If the Musketeers perform well, maybe we can really defeat the Dangxiang army in one fell swoop. It is possible to kill Li Deming alive!" Cao Wei did not strike at Li Zhang's thoughts at this time, but encouraged with a smile.
In fact, Li Zhang also knew that his ideas were a bit unrealistic, but he liked to set a bigger goal for himself, so that even if he could not achieve it, he could try his best to rely on this goal to stimulate his potential.
Next, Li Zhang inquired about some details about the southward movement of the Dangxiang. Finally, Cao Wei ordered him to bring orders to Cao Ma. After all, the Musketeers must be prepared to fight this time. In addition to leaving behind the troops guarding the city, the Gyeongju side still has 20,000 troops available, and the 3,000 musketeers also have a considerable help. Maybe it can even decide the victory or defeat on the battlefield at a critical moment.
Li Zhang returned to the border city with Cao Wei's order, and the musket army began to prepare nervously. Three days later, other troops in Qingzhou gathered at Tuoyuan Village, and Li Zhang and others also retreated from the border city to Tuoyuan Village. As for the border city, they were temporarily abandoned. After all, there was no danger here, and it was a bit unwise to fight with the Dangxiang people's cavalry here. Of course, the merchants in the border city had the most skillful noses. They had known about the Dangxiang people's murder, so a few days ago, the entire border city ran away.
