Chapter 3 Beacon Fire (12)

Although Hou Junji showed a seemingly enlightened appearance, his understanding of tactics in his heart was completely different from what Li Xu said. Xuzi always focused on taking advantage of the situation, accumulating thick and thin, and once he succeeded, he

It's like boiling soup and pouring snow. However, Hou Junji, the brave general who was dug out by Li Shimin, is willing to take risks. In his eyes, I'm afraid that the news of Luo Yibing's coming out of the fortress and the gust of wind taking advantage of the fire are all fake moves deliberately released by Xu Zi.

The tribal coalition forces will be in chaos without fighting.

But no matter which angle it is viewed from Zhengqi, Li Xu's strategy is sound and feasible. He and Qu Tutong are mutual horns. On the one hand, he can protect himself to the maximum extent. On the other hand, it is very easy for the Allied Forces to think that more are coming.

King Qin's soldiers and horses are arriving in a steady stream and will attack from behind at any time.

"Although the Zhuhu coalition forces are large in number, they are not a whole. Therefore, under the condition of ensuring the safety of His Majesty, the longer the confrontation is, the better it is for us." Xuzi thought for a while and continued to summarize, "So we either don't fight or not.

, if we fight, we will definitely fight them so that they will not dare to look southward for five years!"

"I haven't seen you for half a year, and Zhong Jian's skills in military use have improved so much!" Dugu Lin sighed secretly in his heart, and at the same time felt a vague regret. In contrast, he has been struggling in the whirlpool of officialdom for more than half a year.

My life can be described as "unexamined".

"This plan is very safe. We men of the Sui Dynasty should not imitate those barbarians outside the Great Wall and pin all our victory on an animal!" Li Xu tried his best to control his mentality and said in a calm and firm voice.

"I have to trouble you all to plan the specific details of the march together!"

"It's easy to say, it's easy to say. We are all serving the country, so there is no difference between us!" Qin Shubao cupped his hands and responded.

"Leave the matter of spreading the news to my Flying Tiger Army. Many of the brothers who came with me this time are from Lingwu, and they speak Turkic very fluently!" Li Shimin also straightened his body and raised his hands in a gesture.

The three most influential generals all expressed support for Li Xu's strategy, and naturally it was difficult for others to say anything more. Everyone put aside their previous differences and added the specific implementation details one by one.

Complete. After nearly half an hour of planning, a very complex but feasible combat strategy was finally put in front of everyone.

Li Xu, Dugu Lin, Qin Shubao and Li Shimin discussed and assigned various tasks one by one. The old general Yun Dingxing who had not yet entered the city was 'highly respected', so everyone still gave him the burden of bluffing and escorting the baggage.

The Li family's Flying Tiger Army was familiar with the fighting methods of soldiers and horses outside the Great Wall, so it was divided into small groups. Some of them dressed up as horse thieves from the border areas and attacked those border areas that had fallen into the hands of the barbarians outside the Great Wall and were neglected to guard against.

City. Another unit sneaked into the Sanggan River Basin farther away, spreading news in that area that the bases of various grassland tribes had been plundered by Luo Yi and Liu Jizhen.

The elite cavalry of the border army selected by Xuzi from Yun Dingxing's command will still serve as the main force for tomorrow's march. The children of Qijun and the soldiers and horses of Guoxian County form the left and right wings, led by Dugu Lin and Luo Shixin respectively, and they will be in charge of Xuzi's soldiers and horses.

model, taking care of each other and moving forward.

"Brother Shubao is inconvenient on his legs, so he will stay in Guo County for the time being and command the remaining troops to defend the city. I will report the situation to King Qi and ask him to hand over the defense of the city to you!" Dugu Lin looked at it.

Qin Shubao wrapped his legs around Bai Ge and suggested in a low voice.

"Don't worry, you guys, as long as I live, we will not lose our way out!" Qin Shubao was very generous, and took the seal handed over by Dugu Lin with a smile. "As for the adults in the city, I may not be very good at talking to them.

get along!"

The senior officials of the imperial court would not look down upon a low-level general from the local area, although their safety depends on the other party's protection. "I will leave Zhang Gongjin here and leave the matter of appeasing you adults to him!" Dugu Lin thought for a while and decided.

"Gong Jin, you stay here to assist Brother Qin. Apart from military affairs, try not to let anyone bother him!"

"Yes!" Zhang Gongjin hugged his fists to Dugu Lin very happily, "I am honored to have the opportunity to ask Master Qin for advice!"

"Don't just talk, it will delay things, and no one will spare you!" Dugu Lin threatened with a smile, and then turned his head to everyone: "Brothers, you can go get ready, remember not to delay the reception banquet at noon!

"

The generals who received the mission retreated one after another, and the hall gradually became quiet. After a while, only Li Xu, Luo Shixin, Li Shimin and Qin Shubao were left around Dugu Lin. Several core people gathered in a circle to drink tea and rest.

, while repeatedly considering every detail of the action.

Outnumbered, they dared not make any mistakes. Especially at this precarious moment, once this battle fails, half of the Central Plains may be wiped out.

"I saw many tribal warriors kneeling down and worshiping the white wolf in the morning!" After a moment, Qin Shubao turned his eyes to Gan Luo again and asked in a low voice. "Does its status in the hearts of the herdsmen be very high? It seems that it is not inferior to that of the Khan?

"

"Turkic people respect wolves. In their legend, the white wolf is the messenger of the gods!" Xuzi still felt a little guilty about the injury on Qin Shubao's leg. "The Turkic royal court is different from our Central Plains court. After the Great Khan

There are many little khans below, and each little khan commands several tribes. Each tribe also has its own Aijin and Tutun. Some tribal warriors may not be willing to obey Ashina Gutuoru's orders, but they will never offend them.

God’s messenger!”

"No wonder this monster is so domineering!" Hearing this, Luo Shixin glanced at Gan Luo with a provocative look, "Turns out he is used to being knelt down and worshiped by others!"

The latter responded with a sharp look, as if he could understand every word Luo Shixin said. "Whatever fierce, if you are fierce, I will not give you meat to eat!" Luo Shixin winked. Gan Luo turned his head in disdain.

, looking straight out the window.

"Haha, you're quite crazy. One day I'll bring out a den of female wolves to see if you can get mad again!" Luo Shixin's self-esteem was greatly hurt, and he bared his teeth at Gan Luo's back.

"It's not easy to find a female wolf that matches him. Back then, I led people to dig out hundreds of wolf dens, but I couldn't find a single one with pure white fur!" Li Shimin took over Luo Shixin's words and said with a smile.

Having said this, he turned his head to look at Xuzi again, with a smile on his lips and a bit of warmth in his eyes. "Besides, wolf cubs are difficult to raise. They usually die inexplicably within a few days of leaving the den. So.

I think the fate between Brother Zhongjian and Gan Luo is determined by fate, and no one else can ask for it!"

This sentence was said by Li Waner herself. When she first heard Liu Hongji talk about Li Xu's wolf in Huaiyuan Town, she and Shimin privately decided to raise one at home. But starting from Xuzi's first expedition

After trying to find him and completely leaving the Li family, Wan'er and Shimin couldn't find the wolf cub with pure white fur.

"If it were so easy to find, I'm afraid every Turkic Khan would have to keep one." Dugu Lin, who had witnessed Gan Luo's prowess in battle, also added with a smile, "In battle, you can stand up to a strong general, and in peacetime, you can

Help him stabilize the tribe!"

"So I think Ashina Gutuolu is definitely reluctant to let Gan Luo leave. For him, Gan Luo is more than just a wolf!" Qin Shubao nodded and changed the topic back to what he wanted to express without leaving any trace.

Ganluo stood up straight and kept turning his ears. His eyes were attracted to the distant mountains outside the window. Although the burned woods looked dilapidated, they were full of vitality at their deepest level. The animal instinct made it like the wilderness.

I like the city even more, and what I feel in the city is not entirely friendly.

"It would be better if he leads his troops to grab Gan Luo. We will just find an opportunity to fight with him!" Luo Shixin immediately stood up and expressed his attitude loudly. Although Gan Luo had been ignoring him, deep down in his heart

However, he really fell in love with this big spiritual guy. If anyone dared to threaten Gan Luo's safety, he would raise his long spear without hesitation.

"He has separated from the main force of the coalition. We can indeed fight him!" Li Shimin responded to Luo Shixin's call as if he was ready to fight. He understood what Qin Shubao wanted to express, and it was indeed a mature and feasible suggestion. But in the end,

The decision-making power rests with Li Xu. There is no need for the second son of the Tang Dynasty to make his allies unhappy.

Xuzi grinned lightly and did not respond to anyone's words. He stood up slowly and came to Gan Luo again, feeling the warmth of the wolf fur with his palms. The autumn wind on his head was already a bit cold, and he could easily

It blew through the armor. Only wherever the fingers touched, there was still a touch of warmth.

As if he felt his master's mood, Gan Luo turned around and met Xu Zi's eyes again. Pure and deep, just like the autumn day many years ago. But Xu Zi was no longer the same Xu Zi. The beard on his face and the look in his eyes were

The wind and frost have witnessed the maturity.

"Second brother, Zhong Jian just reunited with Gan Luo!" Dugu Lin couldn't bear it and protested in a low voice.

"Zhongjian, I'm just suggesting!" Qin Shubao stood up staggeringly, walked behind Li Xu and said.

"We can't guarantee that the Turks can be trustworthy!" Xu Zi turned his back to everyone and shook his head gently, then slowly turned around and led Gan Luo towards the door of the house.

Everyone turned their attention to Qin Shubao, some admired in their hearts, and some complained in their hearts. But no one expressed their thoughts directly. In the face of a powerful enemy, they must maintain the appearance of everyone working together.

Just when everyone was looking at each other, Xuzi, who had already walked to the door, turned around with a smile and gave everyone an incomprehensible answer, "I will think about it! Although Gan Luo was raised by me, he does not belong to me!".

Then he quickly opened his legs and caught up with Gan Luo who had already walked away. Under the gorgeous autumn sun, the two of them almost became one body and followed each other. (To be continued)
