After three days of reorganization, the surrendered army was basically stabilized. In addition, Qin Huaidao deliberately made everyone train day and night. They were so tired that they fell down and fell asleep. They were not even interested in moving, let alone rebelling.
Three days later, Su Dingfang and Cheng Chuliang were ordered to garrison Qitun. In this way, Qitun, Tulu and Jinyan formed a triangle. The army chose a place near the water in the middle of the triangle to station, train, and keep a distance from the tribesmen.
Prevent rebellion and provide timely and rapid support when needed.
On this day, Qin Huaidao was supervising the training, and a scout came on flying horse: "Report——"
Qin Huaidao turned around and saw that they were people from the Guards Battalion. In order to ensure safety, Qin Huaidao sent the Guards Battalion out to supervise the three tribes of Dianhe, Nuzhi and Putao. Realizing that something was going on, they went to greet them.
The visitor reined in his horse and stopped, clasping his fists and saying: "Young Master, Pu Tao has sent three thousand troops to come towards us. They will arrive in an hour at most. Brothers, keep an eye on us along the way."
Two days ago, people from three major tribes were scouting the area. The news had been leaked. Unexpectedly, it was the Pu Tao tribe who took action first. Next to him, Luo Tong said nonchalantly: "Brother, the leader of the Chixian tribe married the sister of the leader of the Pu Tao tribe.
, we are considered in-laws, so it’s not surprising that we are sending troops, isn’t it just three thousand people? One of my divisions is enough.”
According to Qin Huaidao's establishment, one division has more than 6,800 people, which is twice as many. It is really not a problem to win. Li Derjian next to him suddenly lit up and said: "Brother, this is an opportunity. We don't have to worry about fighting first."
The three tribes will attack Qiemo City directly."
"You mean...eat some of these 3,000 people, and then capture the Pu Tao tribe to increase their strength?" Qin Huaidao reacted and looked at Li Derjian, a little moved.
Li Derjian smiled and nodded, and analyzed: "Of the three major tribes, Pu'ao is in the north and is relatively weak. If these three thousand people are eaten, the Pu'ao tribe will definitely send more people over, at least 10,000, and there will be more than 10,000 left.
People are guarding the tribe. Let’s send people to ambush the Pu Tao tribe in advance, wait for the people to move away from a certain distance, attack the tribe fiercely, and capture it in one fell swoop.”
"This is good, I think it's feasible." Luo Tong said excitedly, eager to try it.
Others were also happy to hear about the battle and wished they could fight immediately.
"Let's go to the military tent to discuss matters." Qin Huaidao said and hurried towards the military tent. As for the invading enemies, there were only three thousand people, so he didn't take it to heart at all.
Everyone hurried to the military tent, and others were called over and sat around.
Qin Huaidao unfolded a new map, which was based on the oral description of the Chixian tribe. His wise eyes fell on a location. This was a ravine formed by the intersection of two mountain ridges. The mountain ridges were not high.
It's only about ten meters, not steep, and a war horse can easily charge up it.
The ravine is flat and more than a thousand meters wide, which is not conducive to an ambush at all. However, this kind of terrain is often the easiest for people to ignore and ignore, and it can have the effect of taking people by surprise and attacking them unprepared.
A plan comes to mind.
The next moment, Qin Huaidao pointed to a ravine on the map and said: "Everyone, this ravine is between the Putao and Chixian tribes. It seems that there is no danger to defend, and the view is wide, which is not conducive to an ambush. However, because of the mountain ridges on both sides, it is necessary to pass through.
After all, if there is no danger, no one will walk on the mountain ridge."
"It makes sense. What do you mean...an ambush?" Li Derjian said clearly and confirmed.
"Time is tight, so we won't discuss tactics and just listen to my arrangements."
Qin Huaidao said solemnly, seeing everyone sitting upright, gearing up, eager to try, military morale is available, he waited for a moment, and continued: "Brother Luo, if you lead people to press up from the front, rush and hit, take advantage of the number of people, the opponent will definitely be in chaos.
, will run away.”
"I like this style of play. I guarantee that no one can escape." Luo Tong said excitedly.
Qin Huaidao did not answer, looked at the crowd, his eyes fell on Cheng Chumo and Fang Yiai, and continued: "You two will lead people to the two wings in advance to stand by. Luo Zhang, you lead people to go behind the enemy lines and wait for Brother Luo to fight here.
, when the enemy breaks up, rush forward at the same time, encircle them on three sides, and capture them in one fell swoop, ensuring that no one escapes."
"Follow the order!" Everyone solemnly promised.
The enemy wants to fight, fight over there!
Qin Huaidao was originally hesitant about which choice to make, but now he no longer had to. He felt proud to give it a go and looked at the crowd and said: "This battle must be fought quickly, and no one can be left alive. After the battle is over, rush here to ambush." He pointed to the map.
Going up that long ravine, fighting spirit burst out in his eyes.
"Then who will attack the Pu Tao tribe?" Li Derjian asked.
"Also, what should I do?" Li Yixie also asked.
"There cannot be anyone here. Li Yixie stayed behind to assist Li Derjian in guarding, and sent scouts to keep an eye on the two major tribes, Dianhe and Nuzhi. If there was any movement, he quickly sent someone to report it, and joined forces with Su Dingfang and Cheng Chuliang from Qitun to intercept the incoming tribes.
The enemy only needs to be delayed for two hours, as this is a serious matter." Qin Huaidao solemnly warned.
"Follow the order!" Li Yixie quickly agreed and entrusted the important rear area. This was a great trust.
"Luo Ying, take your men and follow me to attack the formation. Get ready in a quarter of an hour."
"Follow the order!" Everyone agreed again and left in a hurry.
Qin Huaidao looked at Li Derjian, who understood and did not leave.
After everyone left, Qin Huaidao warned: "Brother, with Li Yixie and more than a thousand people, plus the troops of the general staff, it is not a big problem to seize and recover the few tribes. All the men are gone, and the remaining women, children and elderly people cannot escape."
When the waves are rising, focus on keeping an eye on the two major tribes, Dianhe and Nuzhi, just in case."
"I understand, don't worry." Li Derjian quickly agreed.
Qin Huaidao warned: "If a large number of enemies invade and rescue cannot be carried out, we must not violate the law. We will take our people to withdraw from Qitun and rely on the Qitun Tucheng to hold on for two hours. It will be no problem. Then I will only bring people to rescue.
If it doesn't arrive after two hours, it means our army has encountered an accident, and you should take your people to evacuate in the direction of Datang."
"What are you worried about?" Li Derjian was startled and asked quickly.
"It's not that I'm worried. I'll give you a clear explanation and be prepared." Qin Huaidao explained that in this era, communications all rely on human intervention, so the explanation must be detailed. After saying this, he walked outside the military tent and saw people from the Guards Camp surrounding him, so he warned.
: "Get ready quickly, bring the wire and follow me to the battle."
"Obey the order!" Everyone was overjoyed and thought they had to stay behind, so they hurried to prepare.
Li Derjian also made arrangements in a hurry. As a left-behind force, there were too many things to arrange in advance.
Soon, someone brought the white-tied crow, a horse's head and a pair of maces.
Qin Huaidao put his two maces on his back, got on his horse, and took the horse's hand. White-tied Wu Fangfu felt a fighting spirit and shouted excitedly. Qin Huaidao stroked the horse's neck and said with a smile: "Old man, don't worry, take it.
Come down here to see yours, let’s kill them to death.”
"Xilulu!"
The white-hoofed crow neighed, and the man stood up, as if to express his stance.
After waiting for a while, the army began to move out and headed west. The sound of horse hooves roared, and tens of thousands of people ran at the same time. The momentum was so majestic and majestic, and they ran away quickly.
"Let's go!" Qin Huaidao shouted, pulled his horse and headed forward.
The people from the Guards Battalion quickly followed up, protecting Qin Huaidao in the middle. Luo Ying and the people from the special battle group followed closely behind him. Uneasy, he handed the special battle group to his deputy and rode up to Qin Huaidao, shoulder to shoulder.
As we walked, we looked at the large troops rolling away, feeling full of envy in our hearts.
"What, you want to join the war?"
"Forget it, there are only three thousand people. Each one of them will be gone in one bite." Luo Ying said against his will.
How could Qin Huaidao not know Luo Ying's warlike temperament? He smiled and said: "Don't worry, you will fight the battle. Come back and follow me to attack the Pu Tao tribe. That will be a pleasure."
"Attack the Pu Tao tribe?" Luo Ying was overjoyed when he heard this. That was a big battle. Compared with the entire Pu Tao tribe, intercepting three thousand people was like child's play. He couldn't help but get excited and said with a smile: "Uncle knows very well.
I mean, uncle, don’t worry, I will be the first to rush into the tooth tent and capture the Pu Tao tribe."
Qin Huaidao smiled and said nothing.
The special battle group only has a thousand people. No matter how strong it is, it is impossible to win over a tribe guarded by ten thousand soldiers. What's more, the Pu Tao tribe still has many men who can mount horses as soldiers. Once the battle starts, who knows how many capable warriors will emerge.
But Pu Tao must be beaten, Qin Huaidao already had a series of plans in mind.
The army rolled away, the sound of horse hooves thundering, shaking the wasteland.
After running wildly for about half an hour, the roar of horse hooves also came from the front.
The enemy is not far away, and an encounter is about to begin.
Cheng Chumo, Fang Yiai and Luo Zhang quickly led their troops away and rushed to the two wings, preparing to encircle them.
Luo Tong was excited at the thought of being able to kill them all, and shouted: "Speed up the whole army, kill them all, and each person will be free with five enemy heads. Kill -"
The order was spread in Turkic language, and the surrendering troops immediately started screaming.
The military merit reward and punishment system has been issued, and all the Turkic soldiers who surrendered were attracted by the high pensions and military pay. They wished they could get rid of their slave status as soon as possible and become soldiers. The opportunity was right in front of them, and they were no longer calm.
A huge fighting spirit suddenly broke out and soared into the sky.
