Chapter 55 There are only flocks of lambs to be slaughtered
For three consecutive days, Wu Ma gathered more than a thousand soldiers at the east city gate square every night to conduct experiments. After all, the moon cassock only works when the moon rises.
It was just an experiment, and the leader and deputy generals were ordered to divide the thousands of people into ten groups, and train the teams in groups. They marched, formed formations, attacked, defended, and retreated under the blessing of [The Dark Side of Kasaya]. They also practiced unexpected situations such as the moon being covered by dark clouds.
During the emergency response, Liu Wenjing and Yuwen Jianxue were even incorporated into the team to cooperate with the two of them to practice together for three nights. Although everyone complained a lot, they were very accustomed to the practice.
Li Shimin finally couldn't afford to watch it for two nights in a row.
It's not that he doesn't have as much energy as Dancing Horses, but that Jinyang is about to raise troops and he has too many things to do.
Li Shimin admired Wu Ma's caution and told him that if the date for leaving the city was determined, he must inform him.
Li Yuan sent Pei Ji to look for the dancing horse several times, urging him to act as soon as possible.
Wu Ma fully understood Li Yuan's sense of urgency. There was no way to delay Laohe and the Turks like this. Youdao was trying to make a big effort and then failed again and again. Jinyang's army must not be discouraged anymore. Tang Gong planned to kill Daxing in one fell swoop.
of the city.
Faced with Li Yuan's repeated urging, Wu Ma said that he was not a coward and didn't want to leave the city. In fact, the team had already practiced and the only thing left was the east wind——
He had been observing the sky at night for the past few days. The storms had been surging every night, and there were often large dark clouds blocking the moonlight. For [Moon Kasaya], this was a very dangerous signal, and it was also the most likely place for things to go wrong.
He asked Pei Ji to tell Li Yuan: "As long as the sky is clear and the moon is bright and the clouds are clear, all the suspects will be out."
…
Outside Jinyang City, Ashina Jishe led an attack on the enemy for three consecutive nights. The accompanying generals were all confused and everyone was guessing what the brave special agent was thinking.
If we were to detect the terrain, we would have pretty much figured it out on the first night, and all the vivid sandboxes marked with the terrain in the special service tent were made.
If it was a night hunt, after wandering around for three whole nights, the special agent didn't touch the bowstring, didn't shoot even a single arrow, let alone tigers and wolves, and didn't even hit a pheasant or rabbit.
If they were plundering property as in the past and meeting people from villages along the way, the special agents would lead their troops to watch and take a detour, without any intention of making the brothers rich.
All kinds of strange speculations came out.
Some say that the last time the special service came to the Central Plains to rob, they fell in love with a beautiful widow from a village near Jinyang. They were going to take the girl back to the grassland, but they didn't expect that the widow escaped alone in the middle of the night and only stayed in the special service tent.
A shoe.
This time, the handsome army of special agents went south for no other reason than to find the widow based on this shoe.
Then someone said: Why don't you see the special agent carrying that shoe and going door to door looking for someone?
The explanation is: "The smell of foot sweat in those shoes is very strong. The special agent does not need to enter the village. He only needs to walk around the entrance of the village to know whether the widow is in the village."
Some people say that the special service is the "Kulada" on the grassland. Tengger bestowed upon him earth-shattering spells. When he wanders around at night, he secretly arranges very powerful formations. As long as the formations are completed, Jinyang City can be conquered in the blink of an eye.
The earth shook and the mountains turned into ruins, and the Turks were about to gain something for nothing.
Others said that the special forces found a treasure map and that the treasure was hidden outside Jinyang City.
"This is all a mess."
After hearing this, Sunong Linghua was really dumbfounded. She went straight to the association to lead the camp and said:
"Are you serious or not? The wolves on the grassland are taken out for a spin every night. How can they fight their prey during the day when they have no energy and think wildly."
The association led the way: "Since they are called prey, why fight? Just catch them and eat them."
Sunong Linghua said again: "Did you know that there are rumors in the camp these days that you have fallen in love with a widow from Han Dynasty?"
"It's rumored that I have a nose and eyes," Jiushe said with a smile, "It's not true, let them talk, there will always be someone who will know that I have good intentions."
"Do you still feel that your intuition was correct?"
"There will be prey, it's just a matter of time."
"But there are not many supplies left with the army - the wolves in the prairie need to eat meat after all."
"Then go grab it," the association said: "Whenever did our Turkic wolves go south with baggage, it's not the blood and meat of the Han people that fed us."
"What should I do in Jinyang? If we delay it any longer, the hunters in the distance will hear the sound and come looking for us."
"There are no hunters in the distance," the association said: "There are only flocks of lambs waiting to be slaughtered."
"Just take a look," he pointed to the Central Plains, "in this vast and fertile land, the owner is very sick and dying. The hungry dogs are greedy for meat, showing their fangs and starting to kill each other.
——We can stay in Jinyang as long as we want."
"Can't we keep wandering like this?" Sun Nungling said: "Our alpha wolf is still watching you on the grassland, looking forward to your brave and invincible appearance."
Jiushe was silent for a long time, and finally stood up.
Yes, my father is still looking at me.
Without his father's support and trust, how could he lead tens of thousands of troops southward.
"Today afternoon," the leader of the association took down the long bow from the tent wall, "we will go to the surrounding villages to have a look."
"Ignore the fat sheep in the livestock pen," Sun Nungling said: "How many free-range lean chickens are there?"
"The wolves are gathering around the shed," the leader of the association played with his longbow and said with a smile, "but the hunters and hounds are hiding inside and refuse to come out. Why is that?"
Sun Nong Ling Flower Arrangement:
"It's better to rely on the height of the shed wall and wait for the wolves to lose patience and change the target."
"If a hungry wolf carries the corpse of a hunter's relative in its mouth," said the leader of the association, stroking the string of his bow, "it will be wandering around in a majestic manner outside the shed."
"The hunters will definitely break out of the shed," Sunong Linghua's eyes lit up, "They want to snatch back the bodies of their loved ones and take revenge on the wolves."
"Jinyang City is high and dangerous. It has always been an important place for military strategists. It has abundant food reserves. Li Yuan can still survive based on this. However, Jinyang soldiers and people's relatives are scattered in the surrounding villages and towns."
The association leader said: "I want to give this hunter named Li a reason to come out!"
As he spoke, he stretched out the bow string and flicked it fiercely. Even though the string was empty, the arrow still shot, and the sound of the bow reverberated throughout the tent.
