Tang Dynasty good doctor

Chapter 475

Especially in the expedition of troops in the winter, logistical support is the top priority.It can even be said that in cold winter battles, it is often not the brave fighting of the soldiers that determines the final victory or defeat, but who has enough food and grass to eat!
Whoever has enough food and grass will be able to last longer and be one step closer to victory!
The Turkic soldiers are mainly cavalry, people who are half hungry and half full can survive for ten days and half a month, but the horses can't do it. During the expedition, the horses not only need to be full, but also eat well. They need to be fed beans. Not only do you have to eat during the day, but you also need to add ingredients at night, otherwise you will lose fat, and the speed of losing fat is simply scary!

Ashina is stingy by nature, so asking him to bring troops out to take advantage of it is absolutely necessary to calculate carefully. He has carefully calculated several times, how much food and grass should be consumed when the soldiers and horses arrive at Zheliu, and how much food and grass should be consumed when they go to rob Shazhou. How much will be consumed.So before sending troops, he brought just enough food and grass, not too much a day, not a lot a day!
If the broken willows are messed up, all this is easy to say, and it will proceed according to the original plan.But if Zheliu is ready, and Shazhou comes to clear the country again, it will be terrible, and Ashinaxi can't afford it in time!
Bringing 20 people out to rob, how much do these 20 people have to eat a day?Not to mention people, how much fodder does he have to bring for horses?
If Wang Pingan really knew this secret, it would really be easy for the Dayan Department, but hard to go!

Ashina was so excited that he jumped up and down. The staff of the headquarters would never reveal this secret. Even if they were captured, they would not tell the truth, but how did Wang Pingan know?If he didn't know, how could he put on a show and let the scout back?

I was so anxious that I kept turning in circles in the account!Suddenly, Ashina slapped his forehead and shouted: "This king should have thought a long time ago that he really knows the secrets of our army!"

He finally remembered, didn't he come across a wooden sign left by Tang Jun on the way, on which was written Tang Jun's words of weakness, telling him not to chase them, because Tang Jun couldn't beat them!
Ashina thought happily: "Why did the Tang army want to be weak? This is their trick to lure the enemy deeper! They knew that they were short of food and grass, so they deliberately showed weakness in order to lure themselves to Zheliu. If it is impossible to supplement on the spot, 20 people will be defeated without a fight?"

"What a wicked scheme!" Ashina exclaimed happily.Fortunately, I kept my eyes open. When I saw the wooden sign, I became suspicious and told the army to stop advancing. Otherwise, if I rushed all the way to Zheliu City, it would be just a trick. When I got to someone else's territory, I wanted to retreat completely, but That's too late!
Ashina is happy again. It's not too late to see through Tang Jun's tricks. At least he can't take advantage of it, but he doesn't have to suffer too much. His three thousand vanguards can be raised by Tang soldiers first, and he can lead the troops back to the tribe , and then found an excuse to submit a form to Tian Khan of the Tang Dynasty, saying that the 3000 people who were originally sent were to pay tribute to the prime minister. Unexpectedly, they were misunderstood and were arrested!
Tian Khan is the most face-saving person, as long as I humbly beg him, I really can’t recognize him as a godfather, call Tian Khan a father sweat, and be a sweater myself, maybe I can get some rewards, and a bad thing can become a good thing , isn't it beautiful!
Ashinaxi said to the scouts in the tent: "People, you have to think more. Only by thinking more, can you come up with a good plan, annex small tribes, and get supplies from the Central Plains. It's just a few good words. You can get benefits, so why should you be stingy with these few kind words, this king has always been the most generous!"

The scouts nodded together in agreement, but they all thought in their hearts: "You are only generous with your spittle, you are stingy with everything except spittle!"

Ashina said happily: "That's it for tonight. You go out to pass the order, and we will pull out the camp early in the morning. Let's not go back to the grassland, and then make plans!"

The scouts shouted in unison, and said, "Khan, if we don't go to Zheliu and Shazhou, the food and grass we brought may not be able to support the grassland, and we will have to stop cooking halfway!"

"Yeah, what should I do!" Ashinaxi became worried again, and had to think again.His life is just pondering and pondering, most of his life has passed like this!

Seeing that he could not make up his mind, the scouts had no choice but to withdraw from the big tent, and took the Dayan scout out, punching and kicking him to vent their anger!

I kept thinking about this until midnight, and I was so dizzy and dizzy. Ashinaxi didn't think about anything, and was about to go to sleep, but someone outside the tent shouted: "Khan, there are Tang soldiers here." Raid!"

Ashina sat up abruptly and asked, "How many Tang troops are there? Immediately put out the bonfire in the camp, don't attack yet, just line up!"

After all, he is a hero of the prairie. He is stingy because of his personality, but his combat experience is gained in the flames of war. When he heard that the Tang army was attacking, he did not panic and gave the correct order in an instant.

The man outside the tent said: "I can't tell how many people there are, there are Tang Jun in all directions... Oh, there is no Tang Jun in the direction of Zheliu!"

Ashina got up and put on his clothes, thinking: "That means the Tang army came from the two wings, not outflanking, but merely harassing!" The battalion was lined up and ready for battle.

With a large force of 20 people, the camp stretched out for more than ten miles.

Ashinaxi's big tent was close to the former army. At this time, it was known that the Tang army was attacking, and all the bonfires were extinguished, but the Turkic soldiers in the distance did not know that the bonfire was still lit. The dense fire pile was like stars in the sky. , as far as the eye can see, the snow is illuminated!

Sighing, it's good to have more soldiers, but it really costs too much to raise them!Ashina calmly boarded a wooden platform in the camp and looked into the distance.

In the dark night, there seemed to be countless Tang soldiers coming, but as he expected, these Tang soldiers did not rush into the camp directly, but only shouted in the distance, and the sound of horseshoes roared, but no one came over!

When it comes to fighting, Ashinaxi is really a good player. He only listened for a while on the high platform, and then rushed down and shouted: "There is no sound in the front, and the enemy troops on both wings are galloping. Don't worry about the two wings, the general of the Tang army must be in front. Send out a team of thousands of people, charge forward, and capture the generals of the Tang army!"

The Dayan Turkic soldiers immediately dispatched a thousand-man team, rushed out of the camp, and went to find the general of the Tang army!

Listening to the sound, it seems that many Tang soldiers have come, but the number will never be so large that they can shake the 20 Turkic soldiers, otherwise the Tang soldiers would have rushed over.The Tang soldiers on the two wings were indeed bluffing a lot, but it just showed that they were only there for bluffing. The real commander of the Tang army should be hiding in the dark, that is, in the direction of Zheliu.

A team of thousands of people roared out, but after a long time, no sound of shouting for killing was heard.Ashina Xi began to ponder again, could it be that I was thinking wrong just now, the generals of the Tang army were not in front?

Before he could figure out who was Chou Yinmao, he saw a Turkic soldier flying back under the high platform, and the Turkic soldier shouted with joy, "Khan, there are indeed Tang soldiers in front, and the leader of the army is on his way." It's that Wang Ping'an, he has a letter to deliver to you!"

Ashina was overjoyed, and said, "Wang Ping'an led the troops here in person? What about his letter, show it to me!"

The Turkic soldiers brought up a piece of paper and a torch together.He said: "Khan, Wang Ping'an's army didn't want to fight us. He sent someone to call the villain over, and the villain who met him personally returned this letter. He also gave the fire pocket, saying it was a letter. Secret letter, the last few lines must be baked with fire before the handwriting will show!"

Ashina nodded, took the letter, read it, he could read the Chinese characters, and could understand the content of the letter without translation.After a hasty look, he smiled all over his face, and couldn't help laughing.

This letter was written by Wang Ping'an himself, and it bears the great seal of his Marquis of Zheliu County, so it is definitely not a forgery.

The letter stated that Zheliu was Wang Ping'an's fief, and Wang Ping'an did not want the fief to suffer from war, so he was willing to negotiate a peace, but he was afraid that the peace would be punished by the court, so he wanted to discuss it with Ashinaxi.

Tonight, Wang Pingan brought people to rob the camp, and there will be no real battle, but please ask Ashina to pretend to be defeated, and lead the troops back to the grassland. , there will be rewards.

As long as Ashinaxi allows Wang Pingan to make this contribution, then Wang Pingan is willing to secretly give him [-] shi of grain, and from then on, he will hand over [-] shi of grain every year from the property of the fief, and use the grain for peace. Don't attack.Of course, this is all done in secret.

And Ashinaxi only needs to show weakness, saying that he was defeated by Wang Pingan, dare not offend Tang Tianwei again, surrender sincerely, and pay some tribute, then the imperial court will reward him. times, merged into one piece, and gave it to Ashina Xi.Wang Ping'an was willing to send back the three thousand captives together, and each sent five sheep as a shock!
As long as they are willing to cooperate, then Wang Ping'an will be promoted and appointed as a public official, and Ashinaxi will have benefits every year, and both of them will have benefits!
At the end of the letter, it says that if you agree to my request, please come to the open space in front of the camp, let’s have a talk, and make friends with different surnames. If you don’t agree, please light the fire and bake the letter paper. Read the last sentence talk!

Ashinaxi looked at the letter and found that the back of the letter was dirty and black.He handed the letter to the Turkic soldier and said, "Take it, my king will roast this letter with fire to see what else is written!"

The Turkic soldiers hurriedly took the letter.Ashina beamed with joy, wanting to see what tricks he could come up with!
Unexpectedly, as soon as the fire folded close to the letter paper, the letter paper suddenly burst into flames, and there was a loud piercing sound, the flames shot out, and the letter paper was instantly burned to ashes!

The Turkic soldier holding the letter screamed loudly, his hand was burned, and the flames rushed to his forehead, burning his leather hat!
Ashinaxi was taken aback, he was startled, he dodged back suddenly, and bumped into the railing of the wooden platform!Seeing the screaming Turkic soldiers, Ashinaxi was only surprised for a moment, then changed from shock to joy, and laughed at his subordinates.

The Turkic soldier whose hand was burned cursed in his heart. He was burned by this hateful letter paper, but he was sweating profusely and laughed. It was too heartless, a complete bastard!
Ashina waved the Turkic soldier down from the wooden platform, and he looked at the ashes on the wooden board, feeling proud. It seemed that Wang Pingan really wanted to negotiate peace!Although I don't know why this piece of letter paper will suddenly burn when it is baked...Of course, any paper will burn when it is baked, but this is the first time I have seen paper that burns so fast!

Why did Wang Pingan play a trick and trick himself into baking this piece of paper?It must be to destroy the evidence!Don't leave the handle in your own hands, so that when you hand in the form to Tian Khan, you will also hand in this letter by the way!This move can only be made if there is a sincere peace negotiation, otherwise why destroy the evidence?

Ashinaxi began to think about it. Wang Ping'an came here tonight. He must be confident. He knew that his army was short of food and grass, so he knew that he would agree to cooperate no matter what.

Very good, in fact, I will retreat tomorrow, if I can get some benefits before I leave, then why not do it!It is estimated that the [-] shi of grain can be obtained. As for the [-] shi per year in the future, that is nonsense. Wang Pingan has freed up his hands to rectify the city defense and train the army. How can he send tributes?But it doesn't matter, this one time, I got a lot, enough for the winter!
Ashina was delighted, stepped down from the wooden platform, and thought that those three thousand captured men might bring back fifteen thousand sheep, and he was even more delighted, this advantage is really flattering!

After thinking about it, he decided that Wang Ping'an was a despicable villain, and he betrayed Datang's interests in order to get promoted.This is very good, he likes such a person, he can make friends, worship as brothers with different surnames, and get rich together in the future!

Picking up two elite Turkic soldiers from the thousand-man team, Ashina happily left the camp, and within a short distance, he saw the thousand-man team he had sent.

Seeing that he had arrived in person, the commander-in-chief who led the army greeted him and said loudly: "Khan, the Tang army will not fight with us, but that Wang Ping'an is waiting in front, saying that he wants to negotiate peace with you!" He pointed between the two armies.

Ashina looked forward and saw that in the middle of the two armies, only a few dozen steps away, there was a man sitting on a marching horse, with eight guards standing behind him, and sitting in front of this man, and posing With a Maza, but it is empty.Besides, there was no one else in the middle area, and Tang Jun lined up far behind.

Presumably that person was Wang Ping'an, he was waiting for him to negotiate, and to show his sincerity, he only brought eight guards with him!
Ashina happily dismounted from his horse, and said with a smile: "People in the Central Plains are always cowardly and timid, but this Wang Ping'an is quite courageous. With only eight subordinates, he dared to sit in front and wait for the king to pass. Very good, it is a Character!" He was so happy that he praised Wang Ping'an in front of the Turkic soldiers.

The cowardly and cowardly people from the Central Plains dared to bring only eight people and sit on the horse and wait for him, so how could he show weakness!Ashina Xi beckoned to eight of the most powerful personal guards, and without riding a horse, he strode towards Wang Ping'an!
The person sitting on the horse is Wang Ping'an.Seeing another large group of Turkic soldiers approaching from the opposite side, and a guy who looked like a big shot, he asked in a low voice, "Is this the King Khan of the Dayan tribe?"

The eight people behind him are the eight Ouyang brothers, and they said together: "I don't know each other, I don't know if they are!"

Wang Pingan stood up and said, "If it's not, then wait a little longer. If it is, then you have to act quickly!"

He arched his hands towards Ashina Xi, and said loudly: "I'm Zheliu Wang Ping'an, dare to ask this hero, what should I call him?"
