When Guo Tu and the others heard Wang Juan's words, their hearts finally settled down. With Wang Juan's words, it was much more useful than others pleading for mercy. Even if someone in the imperial court really wanted to deal with them, they would give Wang Juan some face.
Gao Lishi actually wanted to take Xiao Bao as his godson. With this, they wouldn't have to worry about being punished when they returned. It was fine if they didn't want to be a general. Even if they were given command now, they wouldn't be able to command. If they were really given command, they would definitely run away.
However, looking at the little girl, it seemed that she hadn't played enough and was preparing for something big. If he had known earlier, he would have directly given her command of the army when they passed by Yizhou. Then, they might have been able to take over Jin Chuancheng by now.
Zhang Xiaobao wrote a letter and even took out the proof of the leader of the enemy's thousand-man team. He tied the letter to Shui Yun as well. An eagle was more convenient to use than a pigeon. It was stronger, unlike a pigeon. If you wanted it to carry something, it had to be able to carry it.
Shui Yun sensibly spread its wings and flew away. Wang Juan started a new arrangement. With the addition of a strong helper, the plan couldn't be carried out like before and had to be used.
Together with the logistics, transportation, and medical team, there were a total of 4,000 people. They brought the bad horses and loaded the food and headed east. When they reached the foot of the snowy mountain, they headed south and returned to Pengzhou.
The remaining ten thousand people who could continue to fight were divided into three thousand crossbowmen. Each of them had a horse, forming a light cavalry unit and three reinforced battalions. Other than these three thousand people, the remaining seven thousand people were divided into three thousand people who stayed in the village to continue the civil engineering construction. 'Inherit?' The fine tradition of the People's Liberation Army.
The other 4,000 people went up the mountain. Wang Juan was determined. The troops had finished resting and had a large amount of supplies. There was also the existence of military satellites. In addition to the dog's sensitive hearing and smell, if she didn't do something and let the Tubo people know how powerful she was, she would write her surname backwards.
When Zhang Xiaobao heard Wang Juan's vow, he could only tell her that it was fortunate that her surname wasn't Tian. Otherwise, there would be two more ways to write it.
Wang Juan, who had originally planned to take action at night, ordered the troops to take action now.
Guo Tu and the others, who were supposed to go back, requested to stay. At least they could help out with the captain's work. After all, they had also learned a lot.
After hearing Wang Juan's order, Guo Tu humbly asked, "General Wang, may I ask why we don't move at night? It's easy to be discovered by the enemy during the day."
"They've already discovered it. Zhang Ying killed 20 of the enemy's riders 30 li away. How could they not know? Twenty riders is not a small number. They will definitely come in contact with each other once in a while. When they discover that the Blood Tribe is gone, they will definitely come here. At that time, they will search the village. "
Wang Juan didn't look down on Guo Tu at all. She answered his question.
"Oh! That's right. How should we get there? " Guo Tu was very eager to learn because he couldn't guess Wang Juan's next move. This made him feel very uncomfortable in his heart. If a general couldn't guess the opponent's intentions during battle, then what was the point of fighting?
"Leave? Wouldn't it be a pity to leave such a good place? I have to make use of it and kill at least 10,000 Tubo soldiers before leaving. Up the mountain. "
Wang Juan didn't plan to run. With such good conditions, as long as they weren't idiots, they would think of a way to scheme against the enemy.
*****
Four hours later, the Tubo soldiers discovered that two groups of people were missing. They were already vigilant and immediately sent people to search. In the end, a group of 100 encountered a battalion of light cavalry. They were shot down by the enemy's crossbow arrows at a leeward area. They didn't even manage to escape.
They were still wearing armor. The light cavalry only had a single piece of clothing and didn't even have leather armor. The food they brought was only enough to last them for two days. They were all chasing after speed.
The disappearance of a group of 100 left the Tubo soldiers no choice but to send people to check again. This time, two groups of 100 returned. Before they could run to the location, they encountered a battalion of light cavalry. At the same time, the wind was against them and they were shot down. This time, they learned to be smart and scattered to escape.
In the end, they discovered that there were enemies in every direction. The two groups of 100 lost contact with the Tubo soldiers again.
This time, the Tubo soldiers didn't continue to send a group of 100, but a group of 1000. Unfortunately, when the group of 1000 rushed over, they were all gone.
In the middle of the night, who would want to play with them? Why weren't they sleeping?
The group of 1000 didn't dare to rashly advance. They slowly arrived at the village and discovered that there was no one here. Those that could be brought away were all taken away by the commoners. This time, they finally understood where the enemy had been hiding. They were actually hiding in these few villages. It seemed that the commoners were also bribed.
When the group of 1000 saw that there were no enemies, they could only send 200 people back to report. The remaining 800 people stayed in the village. The wind was weaker here and it wasn't that cold.
When dawn came, the reinforcements that the 800 people were waiting for didn't come. The 200 people who went back to report last night were also gone.
When the 800 people didn't dare to scatter and returned to their encampment, they told the situation. The generals in the headquarters were all stunned. How many people were there in the Tang army? How could they leave all 200 cavalry behind?
Could it be that this was where the main force of the Tang army was? Since the Tang army in the village was gone, where was the main force of the Tang army now?
Tatatu also received the news. His men were still on the mountain with 13,000 men. It wasn't that he didn't want to go back, but he didn't dare to. If he went back, his position would be gone. He had lost 7,000 men. How could he think about it? Therefore, he kept asking people to send him supplies. He always lied that he found small groups of Tang army chasing and annihilating them.
After hearing this news, Tatatu's first reaction was that the opportunity had come. He sent a message to the other divisions, saying that he knew where the main force of the Tang army was. They were on the mountain and he asked for reinforcements. He could bring his men to fight a head-on battle.
The people in the other divisions didn't believe him for a long time. The last time they sent 6,000 men, all of them were annihilated. They even sent reinforcements. Maybe the main force of the Tang army was still at the place where his 4,000 men were killed, looking for a chance to launch a sneak attack.
Tatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatat
"D * mn clairvoyants. How can they see so far? If we continue to fight like this, we will be in a passive position. Didn't those people who went to Tang to collect information and secretly recruit officials know how to bring back a few clairvoyants? They could have found one and let the craftsmen learn how to make one. "
Tatatu hated himself when he thought that he was always one step behind the enemy. He knew the use of clairvoyants. They could discover the enemy in advance and make arrangements in advance. They could ambush or retreat, making it impossible for the enemy to guard against. If he had one, he would definitely not lose.
Tatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatat
Two days had passed. All the Tibetans were looking for the main force of the Tang army, but no one could find it.
Three hours later, Tatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatat
When the remaining men found the 3,000 men and turned back, there was no one at the place where they were ambushed. Judging from the marks, they should have gone down the mountain.
"I told you that the main force of the Tang army is here. Look at the density of the arrows. There are at least 3,000 men. If there are 3,000 crossbowmen, how many saber and spear soldiers are there? If they are not the main force, then what are they? "
The messenger sent by Tatatu repeated his words. The people in the divisions had no choice but to believe him. That's right. 3,000 crossbowmen. According to the ratio, they were definitely the main force of the Tang army.
The main force of the Tang army should be ambushing Tatatu in front of the road and the flat ground at the foot of the mountain. They had to go up and down. But this time, they didn't send reinforcements to Tatatu directly. Instead, they wanted to take the credit themselves. The three divisions had 6,000 men each. This way, they didn't have to worry about being ambushed and annihilated.
When the three divisions arrived at the place where they were ambushed, Tatatu received news that the 1,000 men he sent to find the main force of the Tang army had been ambushed. Only about 100 of them had escaped.
Tatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatat
This time, even if they were defeated one by one, he would accept it. As long as the 18,000 men behind him could avenge him, he would accept it.
Wang Juan was very relaxed at this time. It was different with an eagle. It could fly in the sky and scan the ground. It could cover an area of dozens of kilometers. Even if it flew more, it could see the situation within a hundred kilometers.
Shui Yun had made a great contribution. Every day, someone would hunt fresh game for it to eat.
"Now I finally know why it is so difficult to fight against the grassland tribes with eagles. Only the eagle can restrain them. Unless more people are sent, unless the enemy's main force is ignored and the enemy's civilians are wiped out directly. Otherwise, the same number of troops can be used to determine the result."
Wang Juan liked Shui Yun very much. It was so comfortable to bring it around the enemy's territory.
Zhang Xiaobao was also very happy. He planned to ask Zhang Ying to train more people like Shui Yun and catch more eagles. It was just money. He would give as much as he wanted.
At this time, when he heard Wang Juan's words, he asked, "Does that mean that as long as you have this eagle, you will have no opponents?"
"No, that depends on who is in command. If it was my instructor back then, with the same number of people, I would definitely win against him if I had the eagle and he didn't. However, if he had the current number of people in Tubo, it would be like child's play for him to beat me. The eagle isn't omnipotent. There's a tactic called feint, another method called disguise, and another method called marching.
Not to mention him, even those old generals in the early Tang Dynasty have ways to force me away. If I continue to fight, then I will definitely lose. Of course, it won't be that easy to catch me. We can escape on our own at the most critical moment, and when we return to our dynasty, we will have more soldiers to fight. At that time, it won't be just 15,000 soldiers.
I will not be so stupid as to not have the face to meet my elders. As long as I am alive, there is hope. Yes, the Tibetan cavalry has moved out. It is almost time to wrap things up. I will give Xiao Li a gift. "
Wang Juan was not arrogant enough to think that she was invincible. She also did not deliberately belittle herself. If she had something good, she would use it. Who cares if the Tibetans had telescopes or eagles? Could it be that she could not throw an atomic bomb at them if they did not have one?
*****
The Tibetans felt that this battle was too difficult, but they had to fight. This was a battle in their own territory. If they did not fight the enemy, how could they live a peaceful life?
The people of Tatatatu formed a horizontal line and searched forward. 18,000 people who were waiting to take advantage of the situation also followed closely behind. They hoped that this time, they could eliminate the enemy's main force in the vast Golden River.
In the middle of the night, the Tibetans lit up their torches. They did not intend to rest and continued to move forward.
Just after they moved forward for another two hours, 3000 light cavalrymen ran over from the village and attacked the 18,000 people supply team. Fire arrows filled the sky and lit up the dark night sky. The 3000 light cavalrymen did not continue to fight. After they finished burning the things, they took out the horses from the opponent's stables and turned to run again.
Crazy, the Tibetans were crazy, especially the people from the Third Division who came to help. They questioned Tatatatu, "Where is the main force of the Tang army? Didn't you say that they were on the mountain? "
They left Tatatatatu alone and the people from the Third Division went down the mountain together to help. There were more than 5000 horses. What if they were all lost? The provisions were also burned.
Tatatatu also saw the flames in the distance, but he could not figure out why the main force of the Tang army had run away. It was too fast, unless it was the cavalry. However, he still felt that the main force of the Tang army was right in front of him. To prove that he was right, he divided the team into four thousand and six thousand men. The six thousand men continued to move forward while he led the four thousand men to chase after the three troops. He wanted to see if the main force of the Tang army was there.
Two hours later, large dark clouds appeared in the sky. It seemed that there would be a rain before dawn.
Tatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatat
A bolt of lightning flashed across the sky and struck a tree not far away. Tatatu and the others were shocked. Then, the sky turned dark and the sound of something breaking through the air could be heard.
Tatatu was still puzzled. How could a thunderstorm make such a commotion? Before he could figure it out, the people in the team started to fall one after another. Screams of agony could be heard one after another. Tatatu looked at the scene with the help of the torch. He was stunned for a moment before he shouted, "There's an ambush!
He wanted to show his heroic spirit and continue to charge forward instead of retreating. However, when he saw the spear that pierced through his subordinates and Gloomy Dark, he wisely chose to escape.
As he ran, Wang Juan and Zhang Xiaobao chased after him with their men. The four thousand men had stayed on the mountain for a few days, and they were finally able to put their skills to good use. The spears made from the branches they cut down were also very useful.
Illuminated by enemy torches, they knew where to throw them.
Tatatu did not rest in the first place. He only wanted to lure the main force of the Tang army. Now that he had lured them, he did not have the strength to fight back. After running for a while, Tatatu came to his senses and shouted again, "Throw away the torches! Throw them away! Quick!"
Once the torches were thrown away, Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan's men would not be able to aim accurately. They did not dare to light the torches as it would be easy for them to be forced into a corner and counterattack.
"The people of the protection team, go ahead. Act according to the plan." Wang Juan wanted to teach Tatatu a lesson. This was a good opportunity. When she saw that it was dark everywhere and only thunder could light up the place, she immediately ordered the protection team to move out.
The people of the protection team rushed into the enemy's team. As they ran, they shouted the Tubo language that they had learned, "Oh no, the enemy is coming. Run!"
The people behind them listened to the sound and threw their spears. Wherever there was such a sound, they would not fly so as to not hurt their own people.
After running for a while, Tatatu's men and himself could not run anymore. They could not help but slow down gradually. Some people stopped running and turned around to fight with the Tang army. Taking advantage of the darkness, they really killed some people.
"Oh no, General Tatatu is dead. We are surrounded. Hurry up and surrender. Oh no, Tatatu is dead. Surrender."
The people of the protection team could not find Tatatu's location and could only continue shouting.
This time, a small number of Tubo people stopped running and knelt on the ground to surrender. There were two people beside Tatatu who knelt down. Tatatu was so angry that he killed them one by one. He shouted, "Who said that I am dead? I am still … "
Before he finished shouting, he covered his mouth. He realized that something was wrong. Wasn't he giving the enemy a specific location?
Sure enough, he wasn't wrong. Just as he shouted those words, countless spears flew towards his position. Fortunately, he reacted quickly and rushed down the mountain ahead of time. Behind him, there was a series of screams.
Tatatu hid behind a tree and shivered. "Damn it, this is too cruel. I will become a porcupine if I am a little later."
He did not say anything. The people of the protection team continued to shout that he was dead. This time, he did not say anything. Otherwise, another wave of spears would fly toward him.
There were blurry silhouettes everywhere, and he did not know if they were his allies or his enemies. Tatatu thought for a while and took off his clothes. He found a corpse beside him and put them on himself. Taking advantage of the darkness, he slowly crawled to a place. Even so, there were still people who threw spears at him and landed on his calf. He was in so much pain that he grimaced, but he did not make a sound.
As he crawled, he realized that there were more people. They seemed to be running behind him. Listening to the shouting, he realized that it was the Tang army.
This time, he did not dare to move. He lay on the ground and waited. As long as the Tang army rushed over, he might be able to escape.
However, his plan was ruined by a flash of lightning and a child's voice. When the lightning flashed, a voice said, "Eh? This person was hit in the calf. How did he die? Look. "
As soon as the voice fell, someone immediately came over from beside the two children. Tatatu already knew who the two children were. The spy in Pengzhou had sent the news. The ones who defeated him were not the generals, but the two children.
When he heard the news, he did not believe it at all. Otherwise, he would not have the face to live. At this time, when he saw the two children in front of him, he was shocked. However, he understood that it was indeed the two children who were commanding the army.
The opportunity was right in front of him. Tatatu did not know where the strength came from. He did not care about the spear in his calf. He pushed off the ground with his hands and rushed toward the two children in front of him.
He thought it through. As long as he caught the two children, no one would dare to touch him. When he brought the children back, it would be a great achievement.
The people from the Seedling Protection Team had been sent out, and it was so dark, the people guarding Zhang Xiaobao and Juan Juan did not even have time to react. They could only see a blurry shadow leaping over, heading straight for the Little Young Master and Little Miss.
Just as they were in a state of panic, they saw the figure that was pouncing towards them fly away in a flash.
"Damn, we are going to be generals soon." Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan retracted their legs at the same time. They cursed and put down the arm that had just shot the arrow. It was really scary just now.
"Young master, young lady, are you okay?" The person next to them asked with concern. There were already people over there who held down the person who dared to sneak attack them. They would not let him die easily if he dared to attack the young master and young lady.
"It's okay, little guy. How dare a disabled person who was hit by a spear fight with me and Cuckoo? Do you really think you are a hero? Do you think you are me, who can escape from the search with a broken arm? "
Zhang Xiaobao replied. He lowered his voice so that only Wang Juan could hear him.
Wang Juan laughed and said to the people in front of her, "Bring him here. I want to see who is so smart and knows how to play dead."
Tatatu did not know how he flew back. He felt a pain in his chest, then his thigh and arm. He could not move anymore.
Wang Juan did not need to continue to give orders. She could not. She asked people to light torches and look at the person who almost succeeded in the sneak attack.
"I am not convinced. I am Tatatu. You can't kill me. I want to fight with your generals again." Tatatu did not hide his identity anymore. That way, he would die faster. The life of a soldier was not worth anything. He still wanted to fight with the two kids.
Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan were stunned. They did not expect to catch a big fish. They looked at the person in front of them carefully. Zhang Xiaobao shook his head and said, "No wonder you always lose. You don't even know how to put on makeup. Look at your clothes. They are too small. You don't need to fight with your current appearance. You are lucky today. There is no poison on the arrow. Otherwise, you would have died. "
