Chastity Layman

"Why does Tang Jun keep shrinking?"

Outside the Tang camp, Yifu Abao rode a Qinghai dragon colt, and Suo Zijia dismounted, Abao frowned. He took a lot of risks in this night attack. He thought that the night battle would allow him to take advantage of his familiarity with the geography and counteract some of the advantages of the Tang army's well-equipped equipment, but he never expected that he would take such a risk to attack. Tang Jun couldn't shrink back.

"It shouldn't be. Don't the Tang army come thousands of miles away to fight, isn't it just for a fight? Now that I take the initiative to fight, why don't they come out?"

Li Shi still wore a Confucian robe when he joined the army, which is very special.

"I also thought that this Qin Lang was a person who loves to take risks and play tricks. Who would have expected that he would not be able to stay out of the camp at night. This person really underestimated him. He is young, capable of attacking and willing to defend, and his ability to use troops Can, even surpassed Li Shimin back then."

Ah Bao didn't come to hear and brag about Qin Lang.

"Tell me about the countermeasures."

"Please look, Your Majesty, the Tang army has placed two battalions, one on the left and one on the right. Obviously, the left battalion is the main force of the Longyou Army led by Qin Lang, and the right battalion must be the troops led by Murong Shun. Under the surprise attack, the left battalion guarded the water, but the right battalion obviously struggled."

"You mean to attack the left battalion?"

"No, even if we abandon the left battalion and attack the right battalion with all our strength, it will be very difficult for us to fight with the left and right battalions. I think that Murong Shun is far inferior to Qin Lang. He has no experience in commanding troops in the Central Plains for a long time, and his subordinates may not have any experience. How many people are convinced by him. Why don't we pretend to focus on attacking the right battalion first, then retreat in a fake defeat, and lure the right battalion to attack. We just need to draw them out of the battalion, keep a distance from the left battalion Tang army, and take them to the mountains. We will fight back, We will definitely be able to defeat them, and maybe we will be able to persuade those chiefs who surrendered before the battle to come back."

A Bao stared at Tang Ying, "My goal is Tang Jun. Even if Murong Shun is captured, the right camp is not what I want."

"Your Majesty, come a little bit. If you can break through his right battalion, it will also cut off Qin Lang's arm."

"All right."

Ah Bao called his own soldiers and sent orders to move around.

In the dark night, the two armies came and went, and the arrow feathers were flying, but the Tang army defended itself, and the Qiang cavalry had no chance. Once they got close, they would be massacred by the sharp bows and crossbows.

Under Abao's new military order, the Fanqi began to gather in the direction of the right battalion and launched a more violent offensive.

Compared with Qin Lang's left battalion, which was guarded by Duan Zhixuan, Zhang Shigui, Xi Junmai, Liang Jianfang, Gao Kan, Gao Zhensheng, and Qin Lang's unified army, compared with the 10,000 cavalry in the right battalion, Chai Shao was the main general. Murong Shun was the lieutenant general, and under him were Xifeng Cunyi and other generals from the Dangxiang Xifeng Department. They were all commanding their own troops, and they put together 10,000 riders, which were actually dozens of troops, large and small.

Although Qin Lang even temporarily selected ten thousand commanders for the right army Wanqi, but in fact they still commanded their own troops, and when they set up camp, they just enclose a random piece of land and set up a camp as usual. Come on, send some people on duty to watch the night. There is neither a clear command system like the Longyou Army, nor a complete set of banners and orders, let alone a strict method of garrisoning and disembarking.

If it weren't for the Longyou army being two miles away from them, it is estimated that the night attack of Ah Bao's thousands of horses would have scared them away long ago.

Chai Shao sat in town and ordered people to continue beating the drums to respond to Zuo Ying.

He also asked the ten commanders to guard one side, and strictly prohibited them from chasing them without authorization.

Relying on the crude refusal of horses, wooden fences, and counterattack with bows and crossbows, they fought for more than half an hour, but they still held.

The horn sounded, and the Tuyuhun people began to retreat like a tide.

"Abao withdrew, and the Yifu tribe was defeated."

Someone shouted.

Tuyuhun and the Dangxiang ministries, who seemed flustered under the siege just now, are a little ready to move at this time.

Beating the dog in the water and picking up a bargain is what many generals believe at this time.

Xifeng Cunyi shot down a Yifu cavalryman with an arrow, wiped the sweat off his face, "Damn it, come whenever you want, leave whenever you want, do you really think we are easy to bully?"

"Follow me!"

"General, the general has an order, stick to each other, and don't go out to fight."

"What is Lang Zhan? Didn't you see that Yifu is running away after being defeated by us? If you don't chase now, when will you wait?" Xifeng Cunyi got on his horse, "Kill!"

The thousands of fine-sealed knights behind them naturally listened to their leader.

They galloped out on their horses. Seeing this, the Yifu cavalry ran faster, which made the knights of the Xifeng family even more proud.

Chai Shao was still playing the pipa when he heard the news in the tent of the right army.

"Go and send an order to seal it carefully and order him to return it immediately."

The soldiers hurriedly chased out the order.

After finally finding Xifeng Cunyi, he just snorted and continued chasing him.

For him, the pursuit is vigorous. The defeated soldiers of the Yifu tribe have begun to throw away their armor and armor in order to escape. The knights of the fine seal tribe have already picked up a lot. These are all things.

As long as you work harder, you can catch up with them. Even if you can't catch up, you can make a lot of money by picking up more armor and weapons.

At this time, even if Xifeng Cunyi gave the order, it is estimated that the situation may not be under control.

When Chai Shao heard the news, he stopped playing the pipa.

Murong Shun came in.

"General, do you want to send someone to meet General Xifeng?"

"If you don't listen to the military order, you will seek your own death. Let him go."

Murong Shun hesitated for a moment, "General, many chiefs have chased him out with their headquarters."

When Chai Shao heard the words, he rolled his eyes, "There is no military discipline."

"Are you sending troops to respond?" Murong Shun asked again.

Chai Shao looked at Murong Shun with some disdain, and knew that although Prince Tuyuhun was the deputy general of the right army, he actually had no prestige. listen to him.

Just like now, it is said that it is a response, but in fact it is the behavior of all the troops not listening to orders at all, and even ignoring Murong Shun, he can't restrain his own troops at all.

"Didn't General Murong see Zuoying's drum order? Guard the camp," Chai Shao said.

"But now half of the right battalion is attacking, I am a little worried."

"Worried, of course you have to be worried. Just relying on those thousands of people to chase them out so recklessly, go straight into the mountains and into the darkness, isn't that just asking for death?"

"The general thinks that Ah Bao is deliberately cheating to lure the enemy?"

"Could it be that what do you think? Was defeated by us and collapsed?"

Murong Shun blushed a little. He really didn't understand military affairs, let alone fighting. The main reason was that he had no chance to lead troops to fight. He had stayed in the Central Plains for more than ten years. It's just a guest of wine.

"Then they are not dangerous, the general quickly sent troops to rescue."

"If you want to be rescued, you have to send troops from the left battalion. If they don't send troops, even our right battalion will follow up. If this black and blind man goes into the mountains, he will find his own death. Send me a general order to prohibit leaving the camp, otherwise Military law is ruthless, and the consequences are at your own peril."

Murong Shun's lips trembled, "Will the thousands of people be ignored?"

"Seeking death, who is to blame."

After Chai Shao finished speaking, he picked up the pipa and continued to play it.

Murong Shun stood there for a long time, but finally turned his head and left.

Back in his tent, a group of Tuyuhun generals came to inquire.

He had no choice but to repeat what Chai Shao had said.

"Damn it, this Chai Shao doesn't care about our lives."

"At a time like this, he's still playing the pipa. I think this guy is useless."

"Why don't you just ignore him and let's do it ourselves."

Murong Shun said worriedly, "General Chai also has some truths in what he said. He is chasing in the dark and he is not familiar with geography. If he is ambushed, he will regret it later."

"Liang Yi is really the father of my son-in-law. Now that he has brought my son-in-law and grandson up, I can't just watch from behind? Since there is danger, then I will go to the army. Eldest prince, I will go first .”

A general slapped Murong Shun's chest, then turned away after speaking.

The other generals were also talking about it, and in the end, many of them led their troops to pursue them. Some of them were because their brothers, relatives and clansmen had already joined the battle, and some thought that Chai Shao was cowardly and cowardly, and he was robbed by others. Zhenghuan is harvesting Zhengfeng.

The rest are still hesitating.

Murong Shun looked at them with helplessness.

"Do you want to pursue it too?"

"Everyone chased them out, and there are only a few of us left. I don't want to just stay in the camp like this. Otherwise, I won't be ridiculed to death by everyone in the future?"

Murong Shun had no choice but to say, "But Duke Wei of Zuoying did not move."

"He is him, we are us."

Murong Shun thought about it, but finally he gritted his teeth and said, "General Chai is the leader of the right army, and his orders cannot be disobeyed."

This remark made the generals very dissatisfied, and everyone dispersed.

As a result, after returning to the camp, several chiefs led their men to chase them out of the camp.

In the dark night, when Chai Shao heard the report, he just asked, "Has Murong Shun left the camp?"

"General Murong is still in the camp."

"oh."

Chai Shao continued to play the piano, and stopped halfway through.

"Pack up your things, let's go to Zuoying."

"What are you going to Zuoying for?"

"Go and report to Qin Lang, just in case."

"in case?"

"Most of the right battalion has run away, and there are only two or three thousand people left. If the idiots chasing them are attacked and defeated, they will definitely flee back at that time. If Yifubu chases and kills them at night, wouldn't we be in danger? If a gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall, it is better to walk first."

Chai Shao didn't have the slightest expectation for the entire right battalion. Originally, he was kicked out by Qin Lang from the South Route Army to make way for Cheng Yaojin, but when he arrived in the North Route Army, he was kicked back to the Right Camp. The 10,000 cavalry in the Youying nominally listened to his command, but just like now, which one of these attached Tuyuhun and Dangxiang Qiang really listened to him?

With only such a team of personal soldiers under his command, how can Chai Shao restrain and command the right army Wanqi.

Chai Shao simply packed up his things and ran to Zuoying with his own soldiers.

Qin Lang was also surprised to see Chai Shao coming alone. When he understood Chai Shao's words, he was angry and also helpless.

"The general can't restrain his subordinates, so he should report it earlier." Qin Lang said.

Chai Shao was not annoyed either, "President Xuan let me enter the right camp alone, and I should have expected it if I couldn't be restrained."

"Come here, go to the right camp and call Murong Shun over."

"Command the battalions to be more vigilant, and be careful of the enemy attacking again!"

Chai Shao smiled there, "Minister Xuan will not send troops to meet the right battalion?"

"A group of idiots, I can't do it for them, I also become an idiot, it's not worth it."

Under such circumstances, Qin Lang would rather give up the right camp than take the risk of attacking, so in the end he chose to bring Murong Shun, an important person, back to the left camp.

As for the remaining two or three thousand riders, I don't bother to care about them, maybe they can be used as bait if they stay there.

If Ah Bao doesn't know what it means to accept as soon as he likes it, and he dares to come back again, then he must show him some color and let him know that Tang Jun is not easy to mess with.

"Are you really giving up on the right battalion? Seven or eight thousand riders have been dispatched. If they are gone, the loss will be huge."

"If it's gone, it's gone. Anyway, they are all newly attached people, so they may not be loyal!"
