Chai Rong, Shizong of Zhou Dynasty, didn’t know what he was thinking. An army of 150,000 was gathered in Tanzhou. They only trained their troops and horses every day. It seemed that he had no intention of sending troops to Yuzhou. It seemed that he was content to seize the small town of Northern Han Dynasty.
In Tanzhou, the northern expedition seems to have become a slogan and there is no intention to continue the expedition.
However, Liu Ling knew that Chai Rong was a man with deep knowledge of military arts, literary and military skills, and was a great leader of his generation. The 150,000-strong army required for the Northern Expedition would require huge supplies, and they would definitely not continue the confrontation for many years. But then again,
I am afraid that the national strength of the Northern Han Dynasty will not be able to hold on.
Therefore, Liu Ling concluded that Chai Rong was using this method to force Liu Ling to take action first. As long as the 110,000 troops of the Northern Han Dynasty gathered in Yuzhou were in short supply of food and grass, the Han army would inevitably launch an offensive if they could not hold on and strive to end the war as soon as possible.
At that time, the Zhou army was waiting for work, waiting to see what happened, looking for the Han army's flaws and attacking them, with a high chance of winning. Even if the Zhou army just stayed in Tanzhou and did not take the initiative to attack, the Han army would have to repatriate most of them because they had no food and grass.
's army.
At that time, the Zhou army only had to conquer Yuzhou in one go and then surround Yingzhou, and most of the southern half of the Northern Han Dynasty would be in the pocket of the Later Zhou Dynasty.
Therefore, Chai Rong expected that Liu Ling was more impatient than him and wanted to end the war as soon as possible.
Regarding Chai Rong's plan, Liu Lingming knew it, but he had no choice but to take action first. This was a kind of helplessness. The biggest hope now is that Zhou Yangong's mission to Xixia can have a good result. As long as Xixia Chen Bing is at the border of Later Zhou,
Chai Rong's military morale must be in chaos.
In order to prevent the Zhou army from having any plot, Liu Ling ordered the scouts to double the scope of investigation. However, for two consecutive days, no movement was seen from the Zhou army.
A team of ten scouts galloped out of the camp. Their goal was to go to Tanzhou to spy on the Zhou army. This mission was very dangerous. If they were discovered by the Zhou army, their team of scouts could
No one can guarantee how many will come back alive.
The leading scout is an old cavalryman from the Fuyuan Army. The life and death of this team of scouts are entirely in his hands, depending on whether his experience is enough to deal with unknown dangers.
The chief's name is Li Dapeng, he is forty years old this year.
After leaving the camp, heading southwest, passing through a forest, you will find a large desolate land between Yuzhou and Tanzhou. Li Dapeng is tall and tall, with a beard on his face, and his appearance is quite reminiscent of the Three Kingdoms. It's just that
When it comes to real skills, he is far behind Zhang Fei.
The scout team is all light cavalry. In order to increase speed, they only wear light armor. The weapons they are equipped with are not heavy cavalry lances, but light and sharp sabers. While improving their mobility, their combat effectiveness has dropped a lot. However, the scouts
Its mission is to conduct reconnaissance intelligence and turn around and flee once it encounters an enemy. Compared with combat effectiveness and mobility, the latter is obviously more important.
Entering the forest, the trees are thick and dense, and it is difficult to increase the speed. Only when you leave the forest can you gallop. On the other side of the forest is the southwest camp of Zhongyihouwang Banjin, where 30,000 troops are stationed.
Li Dapeng took the lead and walked in front. As he was about to leave the woods, the sound of drills in the southwest camp gradually became clearer. It was still early at this time, and the troops would have breakfast after morning exercises, so many places in the camp were crowded.
There is smoke rising from the cooking stove, which means that the soldiers are burying pots and making rice.
Just when they reached the edge of the forest, Li Dapeng suddenly made a gesture quietly. The light cavalry behind him immediately slowed down, and following Li Dapeng's gesture instructions, the team dispersed in a skirmish pattern. Li Dapeng pointed to a direction in front, and then fired.
He signaled a whistle and surrounded him with his light cavalry.
At the edge of the forest ahead, two black figures also spotted the cavalry. The two men seemed to be very panicked, and turned around and ran away when they saw the cavalry.
Li Dapeng immediately determined that these two people were spies sent by the Zhou army. He shouted loudly and ordered the cavalry to separate and outflank them. The two men were not running very fast, and the clothes on their bodies seemed to be too wide and ill-fitting.
He was quickly surrounded by cavalry.
The two men were short in stature, and their faces were smeared with grass ash. They sweated a lot while running, and their faces were gray and white, looking very embarrassed and panicked. Seeing that they could not outrun the cavalry, one of them protected the smaller one behind him.
, the two people leaned against a big tree, looking at the cavalry team surrounding them with panic in their eyes.
Li Dapeng was happy when he saw these two people. Why did Zhou Jun send such two half-year-old children to spy on the enemy?
These two men were obviously still young. They were wearing baggy clothes of the Zhou army, their leather armor hung crookedly, they had no weapons in their hands, and their hair was like weeds. They looked less like soldiers than refugees fleeing the disaster.
It's just that the Zhou army uniforms worn by these two people are real.
Li Dapeng waved his hand, and the cavalry formed a circle, surrounding the two Zhou army soldiers under the big tree.
"Chai Rong has no soldiers anymore? Why did he send two little kids like you to do reconnaissance? I laughed to death, haha!"
Li Dapeng pointed at the two Zhou Jun soldiers and said, "Come here, take them back to the camp for interrogation!"
The slightly taller Zhou Bing in front waved his hands in panic and defended: "We are not Zhou soldiers, we are the people who escaped from Yuzhou City. Sirs, please let us go."
This Zhou Jun soldier was not even taller than Li Dapeng's shoulders. He was slim and had his hands back to protect the man behind him. When Li Dapeng saw him like this, he was obviously a child who hadn't grown up yet. He didn't even change his voice when he spoke.
, soft and soft like a baby girl.
He touched his beard and laughed and said: "It seems that in the battle of Yuzhou, your unworthy emperor Chai Rong was beaten stupid by our prince. He actually sent two incompetent children as scouts. It's so funny."
A big tooth fell out."
The little soldier of the Zhou army hiding behind him was even thinner, reaching Li Dapeng's chest. He poked his head out from behind and said aggrievedly: "We are really not a trick of the Zhou army. We are here to find someone."
Li Dapeng said: "I don't care whether you are looking for someone or spying on the military. Now that I have tied you up and taken them back to the Chief of Thousands, I will not believe that you are not telling the truth under his whip. Two little soldiers like you will be beaten to death."
No one feels sorry for him. Come on, tie him up!"
He shouted, and four cavalrymen immediately jumped off their horses, holding sabers and ropes, and pressed forward step by step.
The two Zhou army soldiers just begged and shrank back, but because their backs were against the big tree, they had no way to escape. A Han army light cavalry laughed ferociously and kicked the Zhou army soldier in front.
. There was no force left in this kick. If he was kicked, even if he didn't die, there would be no guarantee that his ribs would not be broken.
The Han soldiers behind were already holding ropes. As soon as the Zhou soldiers fell to the ground, they came up and tied him up by squeezing his shoulders and back. Who would have thought that although the Zhou soldiers were young, their skills were really good. He saw that he could not help but beg.
He couldn't run away. The kick from the Han cavalry was so powerful that if he was kicked, his bones and tendons would be broken.
Seeing the kick coming towards the chest, the Zhou Army soldier's face became angry. He turned to one side and reached out to grab the Han Army's ankle. He turned and twisted, and with a click, the Han Army's
His ankle was twisted, and he fell down with a wailing cry. Before he could fall to the ground, the soldier from the Zhou army hit him in the face with an elbow. Suddenly, the Han army's face was filled with soy sauce.
In the shop, a spurt of nosebleed spurted out, and the corner of his mouth was cracked.
The other Han troops saw that the Zhou soldiers were so skillful that they knocked down one of their comrades with one move. They were furious and jumped off their horses, drew their sabers and forced them over.
A Han soldier roared angrily and struck the Zhou soldier on the forehead with his sword. The Zhou soldier moved forward without retreating. His thin body was getting into the arms of the Han soldier. He raised his hand and fired a cannon into the sky.
On the chin of the Han army, the man staggered and was beaten back. The Zhou army soldiers caught up with him and put his foot on the chest of the Han army. The Han army was in pain and fell to the ground with a plop.
.
It's just that Zhou Junxiaobing's strength was really limited this time. Although he knocked down the Han Jun, he didn't cause very heavy damage at all. On the contrary, the punch that hit the Han Jun's jaw was too hard and hurt his own wrist. He frowned in pain.
, tears almost flowed out.
Li Dapeng angrily cursed: "They are all trash. They can't even catch these two little babies. It's not embarrassing to spread the news!"
He jumped off the horse, drew his saber and rushed towards him. Far away, Li Dapeng jumped up and slashed down with his sword in the air!
The soldier of the Zhou army took advantage of the situation and picked up the saber of the first Han army he defeated. He used both hands to catch Li Dapeng's volleying sword. There was a crisp sound, and the two swords collided and stirred up a series of sparks. The soldier of the Zhou army
His strength was too weak, how could he block Li Dapeng's powerful and heavy sword? His feet were unsteady, his hands were in severe pain, and he dropped the sword, and he took several steps back.
As soon as Li Dapeng succeeded in the move, he was immediately more confident about his ability. He flipped his wrist and slashed the head of the Zhou Army soldier horizontally with his knife. The Zhou Army soldier was startled, with panic on his face. He was too late.
To dodge, he just lowered his head. The knife struck his hat, immediately cutting it off.
The soldier of the Zhou army retreated and fell to the ground. The hat on his head fell off, revealing a waterfall of black hair! There were also a few hairs cut off by the blade, floating in the air.
Li Dapeng was stunned for a moment, then said with a ferocious smile: "You are still a female, Zhou Jun really has no one to use!"
He strode forward and was about to swing his sword to kill. The thinner Zhou Jun soldier behind him was so frightened that he jumped in front of the Zhou Jun who made the move, guarding him tightly. He moved too much.
, the hat on the head didn’t fit properly, and it fell off during the jump. If you look closely, it turns out to be a woman!
Li Dapeng chuckled and said: "It turns out that they are a pair of girls who have become the ghosts of me. Don't blame me for not knowing how to show mercy to women!"
The younger girl pushed the older one back hard and said urgently: "Miss, run away! We can't all die here without knowing why!"
The one called Miss was none other than Lu Yuzhu. She had practiced kung fu since she was a child and managed to deal with two Han soldiers in a panic. Li Dapeng was very strong. How could she, a delicate young lady who had never done anything with anyone, be able to stop them?
Can you live in it?
Seeing that the ferocious Han cavalry was about to be cut down with one strike, Lu Yuzhu turned over and pressed Xun'er under her, hoping that this strike would kill her and not drag down Xun'er's life.
But he saw a Han soldier grabbing Li Dapeng, his eyes constantly looking under Lu Yuzhu and Xun'er. He smiled lewdly and said to Li Dapeng: "Sir, wait a minute!"
Li Dapeng said angrily: "Why are you pulling me?"
The Han army laughed and said: "Sir, how long has it been since we joined the army and haven't tasted the taste of a woman? Now there are two delicate beauties in front of us. This is the gift God gave us. If not
Wouldn't it be a pity for Mr. Shi to taste them and kill them directly?"
Li Dapeng was stunned by what he said, and then took a closer look at Lu Yuzhu and Xun'er. Although these two people had wiped their faces with grass ash, they still couldn't hide their beautiful looks. Look at the figures of the two people again.
, the older one is graceful and charming, with a slim waist, fat hips, and plump breasts. She is the best in the world. Although the younger one has not yet grown up, she is already a beautiful embryo. If these two beauties were to be killed, it would indeed be
It's a waste of natural resources.
He laughed and said: "You are smart!"
After looking left and right, he ordered: "Leave two people to look out for the wind, and the others will pull the two females deep into the forest! The older one belongs to me, and the younger ones will take your turn to have fun!"
Everyone laughed, and rushed forward with their teeth and claws bared. (To be continued)
