Fu Song

Chapter 238 Power

Inside the tent, the fire was burning blazingly, and the leg of lamb on the fire was sizzling. Mu Zhan pulled out the knife, sliced ​​it, picked it on the tip of the knife, dipped some green salt on the plate, Handed it to the blind medicine.

Blind Yao smiled, pulled out the knife and poked it, took the mutton, took a bite, chewed and said, "Mu Zhan, this is the first time I personally cut the meat, it's really rare! It seems that you were determined by Xiao You are so anxious that you are willing to bow your head to me."

Mu Zhan glanced at the other party, went to cut another piece of meat, and said while chewing: "You are right, I was indeed driven to the point of nowhere by Xiao Ding, but blind medicine, you have to understand, I am really doomed Now, the next one is you."

"I'm not going to mess with him, so why is he bothering me?" Blind Yao said disapprovingly.

"Hey, if you don't mess with him, he will let you go?" Mu Zhan sneered: "You are too naive!"

"Mu Zhan, don't think that I don't know why you accepted Li Xu and his group? It's not because you were greedy for the other party's thousands of cavalry, and wanted to strengthen your strength and swallow me in one gulp." Blind Yao said: "It's just you Didn't expect Xiao Ding to bite Li Xu like a crazy dog, right?"

Mu Zhan snorted: "At first I also thought that this Xiao Ding was just trying to capture Li Xu back to offer meritorious service to their emperor so that he could get more military merit for himself, but later I realized that it was not at all. "

Speaking of which, he grabbed the skin bag on one side, leaned his neck and took a sip of wine, and then threw the skin bag to the other party: "Blind medicine, I sent someone to tell Xiao Ding that I am willing to tie up Li Xu and hand it over to him." In exchange for strikes from both sides, but he simply ignored it, Li Xu was just an excuse, from the very beginning, his target was me."

"Really?" Blind Yao took a sip of his wine and asked.

"Blind medicine, what are you pretending to do in front of me now? If you really don't understand this, you will sit in my tent?" Mu Zhan said angrily, "Xiao Ding, I don't want to be in Qingtang There is a force in the region that can threaten him, so, now it is me, the next one must be you."

Blind Yao laughed: "Mu Zhan, I just want to know, who will be the king of Qingtang in the future?"

"If this is the condition for you to join hands with me, then I can make you the king." Mu Zhan sneered: "But how many people did you bring? If we lose this battle, don't say yes When you become a king, you are afraid of survival, which becomes a big problem. You should be clear, blind medicine, that the tribes gathered around us are forced to attach to us because their power is far beyond theirs."

"In the past year, you have been failing continuously, and the tribes attached to you have become less and less, how many soldiers and horses can you gather now?" Blind Yao said in a daze: "But I am different, Do you know that many tribes who escaped from here have now become my subordinates, Mu Zhan, this time I brought [-] cavalry, how many do you have?"

Mu Zhan suddenly took up his position, stared at the other party for a while, and then said: "With all my strength, I can still scrape together more than ten thousand!"

Blind Yao applauded softly: "As expected of Mu Zhan, the most powerful Mu Zhan in our Qingtang, at this point, we can still gather tens of thousands of cavalry, but it's very good, so we have Thirty thousand cavalry, do you think we will lose this battle?"

"So you were prepared." Mu Zhan let out a long breath: "Okay, as long as we defeat Xiao Ding this time and take his head off, you will be the king of Qingtang." Yes."

"Xiao Ding is afraid that the enemy he will face is not your group of remnants and defeated generals, but our tens of thousands of soldiers who are recharging their energy and fighting spirit. By surprise, we have already seized the opportunity , fighting in such a place, there is nothing fancy at all, the stronger wins. As long as Xiao Ding is completely defeated in this battle, we can take advantage of the situation to attack. The Hexi Corridor and the Land of Xingling are all fat The land!" Blind Yao said leisurely.

Looking at the blind medicine who was gnawing on the leg of lamb leisurely and contentedly, Mu Zhan let out a foul breath: "You have been preparing, just waiting for this moment, right? You watched Xiao Ding beat me to pieces, and then Satisfied to watch Xiao Ding lead the army deep into the Qingtang, and then gather the army, ready to give him a fatal blow?"

Looking at the angry Mu Zhan, Blind Yao said leisurely: "Mu Zhan, at the beginning, if I brought a large army to help you, would you accept it? No way? The two of us must be worried about each other behind our backs. Stabbing a knife, it is impossible to truly join hands, right? Only now, only when the strength of one of us is far inferior to the other, and only when one side must rely on the other to survive, can the alliance truly exist. Am I right?"

Mu Zhan chuckled: "That's right, you're quite right, but although you are the main one at the moment, in the future, you can't say for sure."

Blind Yao snorted and raised his skin: "Don't worry, after defeating Xiao Ding, I will definitely keep an eye on you, and I won't let you grow stronger again. Of course, if there is a chance to kill you, I will never be soft-hearted." of."

"To each other!" Mu Zhan sneered: "However, in this battle, we still have to work together, blind medicine, in this battle, if either of us has selfish intentions, it may be impossible to recover, under Xiao Ding's command. You should have a clear understanding of the combat effectiveness of the soldiers by now."

"You guys have been fighting for a year, if I haven't seen the opponent's strength clearly, do I still deserve to live in this world?" Blind Yao said. "I have been preparing for this battle for a year, and it is certain to win!"

Throwing a piece of dry firewood into the fire, Xiao Ding laughed softly as he watched the flames erupt: "[-] cavalry, it's really scary!"

In contrast, Tuoba Yangwei looked much more serious: "Although this is the result we wanted, it was really unexpected to catch such a giant fish in this fishing. Manager, This battle must be fought."

"It is true that there are some fights." Xiao Ding nodded and said: "But if we win this battle, Qingtang can be settled, and the land of Hehuang can also be settled. The west continued to march."

Yuzang Huama looked at Xiao Ding for a while, and Tuoba Yangwei for a while, and he understood the conversation between the two at least a little bit.

To put it bluntly, these two have been fishing all the time, and they want to fight to settle the Qingtang.

But to fix Qingtang, it is not enough to just defeat a Mu Zhan, because there is also a blind medicine.If you really want to fight until there is only one left, maybe you can make the other one stronger.

It was obviously Director Xiao's plan to lure two people together and decide the outcome in a single battle.

It's just that he didn't expect that the fish caught this time was too big, which was beyond their digestion capacity.

"Boss, are you still going to fight this battle?" Yuzang Huama asked cautiously.

"Yuzang, are you afraid?" Xiao Ding asked with a half-smile.

Hearing Xiao Ding's seemingly casual words, Yu Zang's heart trembled. Over the past year, he followed Xiao Ding's conquests here and there, and the last trace of his rebelliousness was wiped out.The tyranny of Xiao Ding's soldiers made him see what a real arrogant soldier is.

And Xiao Ding himself convinced him.

This time when chasing Mu Zhan, the soldiers and horses under Yu Zang's command could be seen by Xiao Ding, and there were only more than two thousand people who picked from east to west, and they were all Yu Zang's relatives. As for the others, Xiao Ding Not at all.

"Of course I'm not afraid!" Yu Zang said loudly, puffing out his chest. "When the war begins, Yu Zang please be the vanguard."

Xiao Ding laughed, waved his hands, and said: "If you win this battle, Yuzang, you can come back. At that time, we will build a Protectorate Mansion here, and you will be the Protectorate."

"Thank you, Manager!" Yuzang Huama said happily.

"Don't look at the opponent's army of [-], which is three times as many as ours, but the real combat power is at most equal to ours!" Xiao Ding fiddled with the fire, and said: "Mu Zhan's troops have We have been defeated again and again, and the courage has been lost. With real combat power, it is not bad to be able to display seven or eight achievements. Although there are many soldiers and horses in the Blind Medicine Office, how many soldiers and horses belong to his headquarters? More, Is it the Tubo tribe who is attached to him, and there are Uighur tribes in it? Such an army may be okay if they fight with the wind, but once the war is deadlocked, once they fall into a brutal strangulation battle, how long can they last? ?”

Tuoba nodded vigorously and said: "So, the most important thing in this battle is the first battle. As long as we win the first battle, then the opponent has a great possibility of collapse, and then the matter will be simple."

"Boss, please be the vanguard!" Yu Zang Huama, who was promised the position of guard by Xiao Ding, immediately asked for orders.

However, Xiao Ding shook his head: "You can't do it. In this battle, the Chinese army will move first. Brother Tuoba, you are in charge of the overall situation. I will lead the iron cavalry to break through the formation, and Xin Jian's iron kite will follow closely."

Tuoba Yangwei nodded. Among the entire army, no one could compare to Xiao Ding in terms of combat power. In this battle, tens of thousands of cavalry from both sides encountered each other. In fact, there was no such thing as front and rear flanks. On such a wide and flat plateau, there is no possibility of ambushes or ambushes.

Although the road is not narrow, but when the two powerhouses meet, the brave still wins.

It is true that the Tubo cavalry has a large number of troops, but there are many tribes and tribal alliances, and there is no lack of feuds among them. I am afraid that it will be extremely difficult to get them to work together to survive and die. Including the cavalry, it can be said that the top and bottom are united, and the continuous victories have made this army reach an unprecedented height in terms of spirit and sense of honor.

three days later.

Suddenly, there was a touch of color in the white world.A bright red flag fluttered in the wind, and soon, around the red flag, one after another appeared one after another.The flag moved forward slowly, and dense cavalry also appeared between the sky and the earth.

The cavalry moved slowly from south to north.

Not long after, there was a rumbling sound from the north. In the winter, there seemed to be continuous thunderclaps ringing in the sky. A red lion flag appeared on a hill, and then more and more cavalry roared across. This red lion flag is galloping forward.

Both sides are well aware of this decisive battle.

They didn't even bother to send out scouts. After all, at such a time, everyone no longer needed to inquire about each other's information, and everyone knew each other's strength well.In the current war, every strength is precious.

Xiao Ding's troops consisted of more than [-] cavalry.

Its core combat power should be regarded as the three thousand iron kites led by Xin Jian.

Of course, this is not counting Xiao Ding's personal guard camp.

Xiao Ding's personal guard battalion consisted of [-] soldiers, half of them on foot and half of them on horseback, each accounting for [-] people.

This time, only five hundred cavalry followed Xiao Ding in the attack.

But these [-] cavalry are all heavily armed cavalry.

All the tall horses in Hexi, all wearing heavy armor, when they charge, they are steel monsters one by one.

Among the [-] cavalry of the Western Expedition Army, there are only [-] cavalry with such heavy armor.

Not only because building such an army has extremely high requirements for soldiers and war horses, and daily support is also a huge expense, but more importantly, such an army actually has many shortcomings.

They can only fight on specific battlefields and at specific times, and there are very few times when they can be used normally.When these characteristics are put aside, they are the goods to be beaten on the battlefield.

Of course, as the personal guards of the Supreme Commander of the West Conquest Army, when it was their turn to attack, it was naturally the time to decide the outcome.

Seeing the torrent of cavalry rushing towards him from a distance, Xiao Ding jumped off his horse and shouted sharply: "Put on your armor!"

Under Xiao Zi's banner, he suddenly became flustered.

At the hour of one stick of incense, including Xiao Ding, five hundred and one armored cavalry were dressed.

Xiao Ding glanced at Tuoba Yangwei under the banner of the Chinese army, and smiled: "Brother Tuoba, please!"

"Don't worry, manager." Tuoba clapped his hands in a mighty way.

Pulling down the lower armor with a clatter, Xiao Ding pulled out the horse sword inserted beside the horse, and touched the saber inserted beside the saddle. This is a precious sword specially customized by Xiao Ding for him.

Taking a deep breath, Xiao Ding said sharply: "Attack!"

The sound of long horns sounded, and the cavalry in front of them rode their horses slowly towards the two sides, making way for a passage. Xiao Ding led the way, and five hundred and one steel monsters rushed out from the army, stepping on small roads. Step forward slowly, slowly speeding up.

Even the carefully selected Hexi Warhorse, which is fully armored and hunched over with a fully armored warrior, needs an extremely long distance to increase the speed to the fastest.

Once they charged, they could only move forward until they crushed the enemy and came out through the formation. Once they stopped, it meant the end of their lives.

The commander-in-chief of the army personally led the heavy cavalry to charge. This was a lonely blow, but it also filled the hearts of the tens of thousands of cavalry who followed behind with confidence and courage to win.

The thunderous sound of horseshoes resounded between heaven and earth.
