Chastity Layman 2

Chapter 595 Going Deeper
In Fucheng City, the generals have different thoughts.

But everyone assembled and dispatched troops for a common goal, all for the sake of destroying Tuyuhun in the first battle. Regardless of Qin Lang's public or private interests, the generals were unwilling to delve into the matter of him sleeping with the Tuyuhun prince's daughter.

Now that Qin Lang has made it clear, everyone will no longer pursue it.

"Qin Xiang, now that Fu Yun has abandoned guarding Fuqi City, burned all the weeds, and retreated into Dafeichuan, this is his last resistance. I don't know what Qin Xiang plans to do next?"

Chai Shao finally spoke. Just now Duan Zhanger asked Qin Lang about sleeping with women, but he didn't say a word.

"Naturally, I will go after them in one go, cut them down, and then the teacher will return!" Gao Zhensheng said.

Chai Shao snorted, "Tanghuo, do you think we can underestimate the enemy after winning a few battles?"

Qin Lang stopped Gao Zhensheng from getting ready to refute, he glared at Gao Zhensheng, and the tall man immediately shut up.

"General Chai is right. Although we started the battle smoothly, we have just entered the most critical stage. Although Fu Yun has lost a few battles, he still has the power to fight back. According to the scout According to the news of the report, Fu Yun abandoned the defense of Fu Teng City and burned the grass, but he did not go directly to the west, but turned to the southeast instead, who of you can guess Fu Yun's intention?"

On the map in front of the generals, to the south of Qinghai Lake there is the Dafei Ridge stretching from east to west, and the south of the Ling is Dafeichuan.Fu Teng City is on the west bank of the West Sea, but Fu Yun is going southeast, which is really unreasonable.

In the southeast, there is also the South Route Army of the Longyou Army, led by Cheng Yaojin, with Xue Wanche, Xue Wanjun, Liu Lancheng and several other powerful generals.

"Chai Gong?"

Chai Shao was named, and he was not polite. He stood up, "Fu Yun's intention is obvious. He wants to go southeast to join forces with Prime Minister Tianzhu Wang. Tianzhu King is the prime minister of Tuyuhun and one of the thirteen royal families First, the strength is strong, the three tribes of Tianzhu have more than [-] people, plus Fu Yun's previous plan, there are many famous kings and tribes around, and they are also moving closer to the tribe of Tianzhu King."

"When our northern army was victorious in successive battles, King Tianzhu was also working hard to gather troops. Up to now, he has almost gathered all the troops in the Dafeichuan area."

"The terrain of Dafeichuan is dangerous, much higher than Shanzhou. Our Longyou army went there, and there were many discomforts, while the Tuyuhun army fought at home. The battle has a favorable location and people, and even has a better grasp of the weather than us. Obviously, After Fu Yun was defeated on the North Route, he is now rushing to Dafeichuan, intending to reunite with King Tianzhu, and then rush ahead of us, intending to eat Cheng Yaojin's South Route Army."

There is no problem with Chai Shao's analysis, it is very accurate, Qin Lang deeply admires it, he is worthy of being a well-known general in the Wude dynasty, although he is a consort of a foreign relative, he has absolutely no ability to lead troops to fight.

Although he was in the north, he had a clear understanding of the whole situation.

Although people in the Tang Dynasty did not have such terms as altitude and altitude sickness, they actually knew about altitude sickness at high altitudes, and collectively called it cold miasma.The altitude of the starting point Shanzhou is more than 2000 meters, and it has risen to more than 3000 meters in the area of ​​Dafeichuan. Make high reactions worse.

In some places in Dafeichuan, the altitude has risen to more than 4000 meters. The severe altitude difference, coupled with the rapid march, will bring many serious high-level reactions to the Tang army, which will seriously weaken the Tang army's combat effectiveness.

If King Tianzhu and Fu Yun take advantage of their geographical advantages to ambush, or cut off the food and grass behind them, and divide and surround the South Route Army, Cheng Yaojin is indeed very dangerous.

"The old thief Fu Yun is very cunning and cunning. It is indeed very possible. If they join forces to encircle Cheng Yaojin, they will be in danger."

"Xuan Xiangmo was frightened by General Chai's alarmist words. That old thief Fu Yun is now a frightened bird, and fled all the way in a panic. Even if he fled to the southeast, he must only go to join the King of Tianzhu. How can he have any ambitions? Want to eat the South Route Army? Do they have that mouth?" Gao Kan was still not convinced by Chai Shao's analysis.

On that very simple military map, surrounding the West Sea, it is actually very simple to draw, and the mountains and famous rivers are just one or two strokes or a name on it.

Qin Lang simply picked up a pen and marked on it.

The battle of Kushan before the division of troops was actually in the west of Shanzhou, but it was also in the east of the West Sea. The several battles in Chihai were all fought from the northeast to the southeast of Xihai Lake. After the battle of Chihai, they turned back along the northeast of Xihai Lake and turned north, and then chased Fuyun all the way west to the city of Fucheng in the east of Xihai Lake. It is a circle around Qinghai Lake.

But now Fu Yun ran in the direction of Chihai after circling from the north. Dafeichuan not far to the south of Chihai was where King Tianzhu was.

The last time Tianzhu King obviously didn't have time to rescue several battlefields in the northeast, all the ministries that were hit by Qin Lang's blitz collapsed, Fu Yun was defeated and fled, and now Fu Yun circled from the north and ran to the southeast again.

Gao Zhensheng actually had a reason for what he said. The important reason for Fu Yun to run this way was because there was King Tianzhu's new force here.

Qin Lang's general Xi Junmai thought that Cheng Yaojin's Southern Route Army was heading south all the way, and was looking for the main force of Tianzhu King's decisive battle, so Fu Yun sent them to the door, which saved everyone the trouble of chasing them.

If Fu Yun went all the way west, entered the desert, and fled to Qiemo in the Western Regions, that would be troublesome, but now he took the initiative to run to Cheng Yaojin, wouldn't this just be a good encirclement?Just follow Fu Yun up.

Qin Lang noticed that Chang Sun Chong behind Xi Junmai was hesitant to speak, because the last time he captured Yifu Abao alive, Chang Sun Chong was specially awarded the great merit of dancing by Qin Lang and promoted him to be Xi Junmai's deputy. Deputy Chief of the Youyuhou Army of the Seventh Army of the Central Route Army.

The military also participated this time, but he was young and knew how to keep a low profile. He sat behind Xi Junmai and kept silent, but now he obviously had something to say.

"General Changsun, speak directly."

Chang Sun Chong stood up, his face slightly red.

It was the first time to speak on such an important occasion, and it was obviously a little uncomfortable.

"Xuanxiang, generals, I have something to say at the end. I have seen the sand table topographic map of Tuyuhun in Shanzhou, which is much more detailed than this map..."

"Speak straight up if you have anything to say, don't mince words." Gao Zhensheng's fiery temper couldn't stand the gentleman's gentleness in speaking.

"Yes, General Gao, I want to remind Prime Minister Xuan to pay attention. The terrain of Dafeichuan is getting higher and higher as it goes south, and the terrain increases suddenly. According to reports from many Longyou scouts, it is said that the further south of Dafeichuan, the more difficult it is to march. , the more difficult it is to breathe, and some people even have headaches and vomiting, etc. Last time Qin Taiwei led his army to sweep through the Dangxiang and other ministries, and went deep into the Hekou area south of Jishi Mountain. The terrain there is higher and more dangerous. The sky is full of snow, and there are even glaciers and snow peaks that have not melted for many years,"

"What do you want to say?" Gao Zhensheng glared at him.

"The final general wants to say that he is afraid that King Tianzhu will lure the southern army to go deep. Once he is led into Jishi Mountain or the river mouth, the combat effectiveness of the southern army will be reduced by half, and the supply of food and grass will be more difficult. It is easy to be ambushed and surrounded. .”

Qin Lang gave Chang Sun Chong an appreciative look, "It's very well said, and it's very comprehensive."

The result of the military discussion is to continue to pursue Fu Yun, all the way to Dafeichuan to join forces with Cheng Yaojin's troops to encircle and wipe out Fu Yun and King Tianzhu's troops.

Qin Lang sent Qingqi to Dafeichuan to look for Cheng Yaojin's Southern Route Army, reminding them to be cautious, especially pay attention to the safety of food and grass, and guard against enemy ambush.

However, no one knows whether they can be found. On such a vast battlefield, it is really not easy to find a large army marching, especially in enemy territory.

Changsun Chong originally asked Ying to go, but Qin Lang didn't agree, it was too dangerous.

Although Changsun Chong's courage is commendable, his status is not ordinary. This is also an advantage and privilege for noble children in the military.

In Fucheng City, the Northern Route Army chased for hundreds of miles, but failed to capture Fuyun. Although the soldiers were a little regretful, their morale was still high, and they were not dissatisfied with continuing to pursue.

After resting for a whole day, the 6 troops of the North Road Army continued to march south.

Liang Jianfang and Ah Bao's right army led the way, Qin Lang's central army followed, and Chai Shao and Murongshun's left army were mainly responsible for escorting food and grass. Because a lot of livestock were seized along the way, the right army drove a large number of cattle and sheep The group followed up and organized many camels and horses to transport fodder.

The right army and the central army's own auxiliary troops also drove large herds of cattle, sheep and livestock to accompany the army. Although the marching speed was slowed down, Qin Lang did not dare to be careless.

The first stage was easy to fight, but the second stage had to be fought in Dafeichuan at a higher altitude or even further south. If you didn’t bring enough livestock fodder, it would be difficult to get supplies along the way. When Fu Yun fled, But burning grass along the way, and all the tribes in the south of the West Sea have already gathered towards King Tianzhu, so it is difficult to support war along the way.

Although the blitz tactics have achieved brilliant results, they actually failed to achieve the expected strategic goals. Now we can only change the tactics and fight steadily.

The high-altitude terrain of Dafeichuan at about 4000 meters made Qin Lang feel cautious. It was too dangerous to launch a light cavalry blitz like before, and it was too far away from the rear supply for more than a thousand miles.Secondly, the terrain is dangerous, and Qingqi can't run in Dafeichuan, so how can he blitz.

Riding southward on horseback, there were three handsome soldiers accompanying Qin Lang's army, but Qin Lang didn't have the heart to visit them. Now he was a little worried about one thing. After Kushan divided his troops for so long, there was no Cheng Yaojin South Road There was no news of success or defeat, and they didn't even know their whereabouts. They had lost contact at all, and only knew that they were heading south all the way.

But where exactly, I don't know at all. In the previous battles of Chihai, Niuxindui, and Mantou Mountain, they were actually fought in the southeast of Qinghai Lake, but there was no news of the Southern Army.

Qin Lang was very worried, but he couldn't show it. Because he lost the news of the Southern Army, he didn't dare to underestimate the enemy.
