Tang Dynasty good husband

Chapter 66
"The order from the main formation, from Turkic to five li in Jingyang! Order my left and right armies to prepare for a surprise attack." Zhang San, as always, undertook the task of reading the command flag. As soon as there was any movement in the main formation, Zhang San quickly analyzed it to Qin Chao .

"Send scouts to search in a fan shape in front of the formation, pay attention to concealment, and if the enemy finds out, lead them to the main formation." Qin Chao ordered without hesitation.

As for leading the Turkic people to the main formation, it was based on the idea that a dead friend would not die a poor one. Anyway, Yu Chigong would not believe Qin Chao's combat thinking, let alone listen to it, so instead of asking for trouble to inform him , it would be better to take the initiative to change his formation, maybe he can save him at that time.

But what Qin Chao is most worried about now is whether Yu Chigong will put down his face. How far will this battle be considered completed?

If Yuchi Gong desperately wants to repel the Turks, then Qin Chao's tactics can basically only ensure that they can survive for a while and kill more enemies, nothing more.

Qin Chao's military level is actually only limited to the level of the anti-Japanese drama of later generations.

However, Qin Chao admired Li Shimin very much. This guy actually had the courage to lead an army like himself, even though the number was only four hundred.

Qin Chao didn't want to die, nor did he want these soldiers under his command to die, so he could only use his only military knowledge to achieve what he thought was perfect as much as possible.

"Brother, the defenders in Jingyang City have come out, and the defenders in Gaoling must have come out too." Cheng Chumo hurriedly reported the latest situation to Qin Chao.

"Damn it, who told them to abandon the city? What about the people in the city?" Qin Chao roared with anger in his heart, suppressing his voice.

"It must be an order from the Duke of E. Our army is short of troops at this time. Shouldn't we try every means to increase our troops and narrow the gap with the Turks as much as possible?" Cheng Chumo couldn't help but be stunned. I think Yuchi Jingde's order was not wrong. Besides, didn't Qin Chao say before that he would try his best to narrow the gap between us and the enemy?
"What's the use of deploying those hundreds of troops for the overall situation? Confused!" Qin Chao was a little angry, but he was helpless. He is not the coach, and he can't decide this matter.

"The Turks are not good at attacking cities. Although Jingyang City is not tall, it can stop the Turks for a while. If troops are sent to garrison Jingyang City to defend Jingyang City, a large number of Turks can be contained." Qin Chao continued to explain.

Cheng Chumo was a little dissatisfied with this explanation. He pursed his lips and said: "Jingyang City is only so big. Even if it can contain the Turks, it will only be 3000 or [-] people. It is still insignificant to the overall situation. And all our troops have entered the city. , although the Turks have no means of attacking the city, they can encircle it without attacking it, and they can trap us to death even if we are trapped.”

Qin Chao shook his head helplessly. Speaking of the second son, can you use your brain before speaking?Brother has already made it so clear, haven’t you heard it yet?
"If you enter the city with one thousand troops, you can defend Jingyang firmly. If you have two thousand troops, you can lay down in a hidden place outside the city. When the Turkic army leaves and the Turkic soldiers are careless, you can attack the enemy from inside and outside." Su Lie on the side said. After understanding what Qin Chao meant, even Jingyang City could not contain three thousand troops.

It's not that Jingyang City is too small, but [-] troops are enough to surround the inner and outer three layers of Jingyang City Wall. No ancient city was particularly big, and even Chang'an was not as big as a small county in later generations.

Jingyang City is a small city about 600 meters long and [-] meters wide, and its walls are about two feet high. Such a city can only be regarded as a small city that cannot be smaller, and basically has no defensive significance, but such a city is for the Turks. It is still difficult to attack.

Qin Chao nodded secretly, thinking in his heart that children can be taught. Compared with Cheng Chumo and Niu Jianhu, who are two teasers, Qin Chao likes Su Lie more and more.

Not to mention his low-key personality, good skills, and such a useful brain, he was the only one who understood what he meant in the entire 400-man army.

"Yes, if the timing of attack is chosen appropriately and the means of attack are chosen appropriately, there is a great chance of annihilating even those two or three thousand Turks." Qin Chao confirmed Su Lie's idea.

I took a look at the map in my hand. Although I couldn't quite understand it, I still had to give it a try. Not far from the front, there was a place suitable for an ambush.

Guanzhong is not much different from the Central Plains. Basically, it is dominated by plains. In theory, there are basically no particularly good ambush places on the plains. However, there was a regulation in the Tang Dynasty that created this map. Go to the dozens of ambush places.

The land equalization system of the Tang Dynasty stipulated that the people who got the land equalization must plant trees in accordance with the regulations, but this scale is not large, and it is mainly mulberry trees, the purpose of which is to raise silkworms to make silk.

Most families choose to plant mulberry trees evenly in their fields, which does not affect farming and solves the problem of mulberry trees.

However, some rich and powerful families do not do this. They often choose to plant mulberry trees on the land to form a large scale, and then make a business of raising silkworms and making silk. Silk is not a cheap item even in the Tang Dynasty. Very profitable.

Most of the hidden places on this map are basically dominated by acres of mulberry forests.

When fighting on the plains, the most important factor is mobility. The mobility of Qin Chao's 400 men is pretty good. They are equipped with at least 400 horses. However, this is not the most ideal situation. In a real fight, these [-] People cannot all join the battle.

"Speed ​​forward and enter the mulberry forest!" Qin Chao pointed to the direction of the mulberry forest.

If these 400 people can't be hidden, Yu Chigong's intention to divide the troops will no longer exist. On the plain, in broad daylight, the situation can be seen a few miles away. Although there are not many 400 people, it is also a dark place when they gather together. , it is impossible to escape the detection of the Turks.

According to intelligence, after these 400 people entered the mulberry forest, the battle was almost about to begin.

The cavalry galloped along the field path, and the infantry followed closely behind with big strides. Yuchi Gong noticed the movement of the army formation on the right, and sent someone to inquire, but when the soldiers informed Yu Chi Gong of the situation, Yu Chi Gong said nothing. He didn't blame the right army for not obeying the order, but he had a slightly different view of Qin Chao, who had never heard of military law.

Qin Chao's right rear army had just entered the mulberry forest, and the dust had just fallen from the sky, and everything returned to a calm state. There was a slight vibration on the ground, and the sound of a large number of galloping horses could be faintly heard.

Obviously, the Turkic scouts also spotted Yu Chigong's troops, and listening to this frequency, it seems that they have already started charging...
