The Summoning of the Troubled Times at the End of the Sui Dynasty

Chapter 409 Mysterious person, middle-aged man

The back camp caught fire, and suddenly it was like a thunderbolt from the blue sky, and it smashed the hearts of the Turkic generals. Even Temujin couldn't help frowning, and was shocked.

In fact, if you look at it from the perspective of Turkic customs, even if the Liang army burns the rear camp, it will have no effect on the main force.

However, because Temujin imitated the Han army and raised all the fodder for war horses, cattle and sheep in the rear camp, the Liang army was equivalent to seizing the lifeline of the Turks.

It should be noted that fodder is the only supplementary way to feed war horses, and livestock such as cattle and sheep are also one of the rations of the Turkic army.

It is conceivable that once the rear camp is breached by the Liang army, its fodder is burned, and the cattle, sheep and livestock take the opportunity to let go, then the Turks will fall into a disadvantageous situation.

At that time, the Turkic army will go deep into the inland of China and lose its rations such as beef and mutton. How will it maintain its strong combat power?

As the saying goes: Before the soldiers and horses are moved, the food and grass go first. Without the guarantee of military food, even the elite army will collapse and disintegrate.

At this time, Temujin didn't dare to be careless, and quickly organized a team to rescue.

"Report, sweat!"

"The rear battalion was attacked by the Liang army, please send troops to support it quickly, otherwise the rear battalion will be wiped out!"

In the blink of an eye, the scouts couldn't help rushing to the main camp to report to Temujin hastily.

At this time, I saw that the fire in the rear camp became more and more vigorous, and the level of chaos also increased gradually, and shouts and shouts were heard one after another!
Hearing this, Temujin saw cunning again in his panic, suddenly realized, and said, "Oh, I see, so it was a plan to distract Ben Khan's attention!"

Immediately, Temujin said slowly: "Tuo Lei, Ben Khan ordered you to lead a cavalry gallop to the rear camp, and be sure to drive out the bandit army."

"promise!"

Hearing this, Tuo Lei, who was more than eight feet long, bowed his hand and led the army away.

Immediately, Temujin couldn't help showing a playful smile, and said, "Lu Bu, Ben Khan is waiting for your attack."

It has to be said that Temujin's adaptability is extremely strong, and he spied on the Liang army's strategy in such a short period of time.

…………

At this time, outside the camp, the scouts of the Liang army had already informed Lu Bu of the movement of the Turkic soldiers leading the army to assist the rear camp.

Immediately, Lu Bu knew that this opportunity must not be missed, raised his painting halberd, and said in a deep voice: "Soldiers, let's go in and crush the Hu Kou!"

Immediately afterwards, the soldiers of the Liang army followed behind, rushing into the depths of the camp urgently.

Along the way, all the Turkic soldiers encountered were not all enemies, and the Liang army quickly sent them away.

For a while, the Liang army's attack was extremely smooth, but there is a saying that goes well: "If the sky wants to destroy it, it must first make it crazy!"

"boom!"

There was a sound like a firecracker, and suddenly the Turkic army ambushing around rushed out like a tide, and surrounded the Liang army.

This time, the Turks not only have a powerful cavalry corps, but also have an infantry team, which can be said to have truly achieved the combination of infantry and cavalry.

At this time, its situation gradually became critical, because the combat power of the Turkic cavalry was already strong, and the battle formation formed by its infantry was not inferior.

For a while, the Liang army was clearly at a disadvantage in the fight!
At this moment, Lv Bu is like a fierce tiger devouring people, with his painted halberd unfolded, relying on his own martial arts.

There was no one in the Turkic army who was invincible, and word spread in an instant that Lu Bu was covered in blood all over his body, as if he had become a man of blood, and corpses rolled under his feet.

In front of the main army, Temujin couldn't help shaking his whip lightly, and said, "Compared to a few years ago, Lu Bu's martial arts are much more refined?"

Temujin was also a martial arts practitioner, he knew that once martial arts reached the first-class level, the difficulty would double when trying to make a breakthrough.

Because, after martial arts has entered the first-class level, at this time, relying on one's own efforts and cultivation has little to do with it, and it is more a kind of comprehension and mastery.

The only thing is to comprehend the moves in actual combat and seek opportunities for breakthrough.

To put it bluntly, it requires a certain amount of talent.

However, Temujin's martial arts had advanced to a first-class mid-term cultivation level a few years ago, but after a few years, he still stayed where he was, without any room for improvement.

Although this is related to the fact that Temujin's age has passed the peak of his life, it is not because of his talent.

Immediately, Temujin pondered for a moment, and slowly ordered: "All the troops obey the order, bypass Lu Bu, and surround and kill the rebels."

For a while, the lieutenant generals of the Turkic army obeyed Temujin's order and ordered their subordinates to avoid Lv Bu and surround and kill the soldiers of the Liang army instead.

However, this is indeed a good method, because as the entire Turkic army advances, they avoid Lu Bu's invasion and do not confront him head-on.

At this time, the Liang army really fell into a disadvantage.

After all, Lu Bu was only one man in bravery, but the Turks had tens of thousands of troops, and their combat power was stronger than that of Liang soldiers.

…………

Jingde Town, Sui Army Camp
At this time, Yang Lin, the coach and veteran of the Sui Army, stood in front of the soldiers in good spirits, wearing heavy armor and carrying a water and fire prisoner dragon stick.

Behind him are all soldiers of the Sui army who are ready to go and ready to attack at any time.

Because the middle-aged man made an agreement with him, as long as he saw the Turkic camp on fire, it was time for the entire Sui army to attack!

After waiting for a long time, but seeing the flames soaring into the sky, the old general Ding Yanping couldn't help but raised his guns and came over on the horse, saying: "Brother Yang Lin, is there a mistake in the information?"

"It's possible that he didn't persuade Lu Bu to surrender at all, but just put our army together?"

Hearing this, Yang Lin shook his head and explained: "Yanping, his uncle and we are life and death friends, don't you understand how he is?"

"I believe that with his ability, he shouldn't be able to cultivate a mediocre nephew."

"I'm talking about this person, I have seen this person before when he was young. He is quick-witted and extremely active in thinking. I am afraid that he is not inferior to you and me now!"

Following Yang Lin's persuasion, Ding Yanping did not object, and continued to stand on the horse and wait.

Suddenly, at this moment, the opposite side of the Sui army camp suddenly burst into flames, bright as day!
Immediately, the sentry cavalry of the Sui Army reported the battle report to Yang Lin as quickly as possible.

For a moment, Ding Yanping raised both guns and exulted, "Haha!"

"It seems that Lu Bu really launched a rebellion and attacked the Hu Kou camp. Our army quickly attacked."

Immediately, Yang Lin also knew the truth that soldiers are expensive and fast, so without hesitation, he raised his stick and ordered the whole army to kill the Hu Kou camp on the opposite side.

For a while, his veteran Ding Yanping, Yang family generals Yang Yansi, Yang Yanshun, and Yang Lin's Taibao led the army one after another.

Its momentum is unprecedentedly large, and its soldiers are extremely powerful.

After all, during this period of time, the Sui army has been on the defensive during the battle with the Turks.

Almost most of the soldiers of the Sui Army were from the Central Plains, and their passionate hearts were unprecedentedly strong.

It should be noted that although the Sui Dynasty had experienced the prosperity of the first emperor, it still used the military merit system.

Military meritorious titles, as the name implies, need to make military meritorious service to enhance one's title and official position.

But where does military merit come from?Obviously, if a warrior wants to make meritorious service, he needs to join the army and go to battle to kill the enemy in order to obtain military merit.

As for scribes, they mainly use governance to improve their political achievements.

Therefore, in this defensive battle, the Sui army had long held their breath, and it was a big fight!
However, due to the great strength of the Turks and the fact that Dong Zhuo was used as a minion, Yang Lin refused to fight for the sake of safety.

Just put on a defensive posture and use the Turks to delay the opportunity.

The reason why Temujin has been unable to break through Jingde Town and seize Shuofang.

Among them, the importance of the Bronze Banner Formation laid down by Yang Lin in this battle is self-evident!

…………

In the direction of the rear camp, it was the middle-aged man who led the raid.

At that time, it was the middle-aged man who saw the clues of the Turkic camp, so he refused to let Lu Bu lead the army to enter directly.

Afterwards, the middle-aged man offered a plan and took the lead in beating gongs and drums outside the camp, waving flags and shouting, mainly to attract the attention of his barbarians.

At this time, he personally led an army to sneak into the direction of the rear camp, set fire to them, and drive out Hu Kou, cattle, sheep and other livestock.

In fact, the real purpose of the middle-aged man was not to raid the Turkic back camp, but to attract Temujin here.

In this way, Lu Bu created the goal of breaking through the Turkic main camp and defeating his army.

At this time, because Temujin gathered the main force to ambush in the main camp, the rear camp's defensive force was extremely empty.

Under the command of the middle-aged man, the Liang army attacked swiftly and quickly entered the rear camp to disperse the Hu bandits.

Immediately, the torch ignited the fodder, and the flames soared into the sky, faintly visible for tens of miles around.

"Report, sir, a cavalry force from Hu Kou galloped back and attacked our army!"

Following the scout's report, the middle-aged man didn't panic when he heard the words, and said slowly: "About how many soldiers and horses are there?"

Hearing this, the scout reported truthfully: "Although the barbarian cavalry ran up, the dust was flying."

"But the villain has good eyesight since he was a child. According to the number of people observed by the villain, the maximum number of cavalry regiments is no more than 3000."

Following the scout's report, the middle-aged man couldn't help but wryly smiled, sighed secretly, and said, "Oh!"

"It seems that Temujin is not so easy to be fooled, he has already seen through my plan!"

Immediately afterwards, the middle-aged man did not dare to stay for a long time, and evacuated urgently after everything was prepared.

After all, the middle-aged man was only leading a partial division, and Tuo Lei, who came to aid him, was a fully armed Turkic cavalry.

It is obviously not a wise move to go head-to-head, and it must be the Liang army who will suffer huge losses in the end.

A middle-aged man is also a person who knows how to fight well, so of course he would not act like this.

However, the middle-aged man would not leave just yet, and after leading the army to a depression, he began to arrange traps.

As for its plan, it just doesn't want Hu Kou to return to aid quickly, and it is of course best to delay him for some time.

It should be noted that the back camp is already on fire, as long as it can be delayed for a period of time, its fodder, cattle and sheep will be lost!
"Ahhh!"

All of a sudden, dragging and leading the crowd to this place, the Turkic warriors galloping in the front row fell off their horses one after another and were trampled to death.

Immediately, Tuo Leiqi reacted very quickly, reining in his horse and saying: "Boys, slow down, pass slowly, don't be crowded!"

Hearing the order, the Turkic cavalry also stopped the speed of the galloping horses one after another, and then followed Tuolei's instructions and walked slowly.

It has to be said that Tuo Lei's move was extremely effective. Although the speed was much slower, it passed safely and the casualties were not large.

At this time, the Liang army ambushed in the dark and watched every move of the Turkic cavalry.

Among them, a sergeant pointed with his finger and said: "Sir, Hu Kou has walked out of the obstacle zone, what should we do next?"

"Ugh!"

"There are so many capable people under Hu Kou's command, withdraw!"

Reluctantly let out a sigh, the middle-aged man had to lead the army to evacuate first.

For a while, Tuo Lei also took the lead in leading the cavalry to arrive at the rear camp, and then ordered the army to start fighting the fire.

However, the fire is too strong to be extinguished overnight.

In the end, with the efforts of the barbarian cavalry, the fodder for the horses was barely saved for nearly ten days.

As for livestock such as cattle and sheep, slightly more were rescued.

…………

In the direction of the main camp, the Liang army is struggling to support the main force of the Turks.

Obviously, if there is no foreign aid, I am afraid that the Liang army will definitely be destroyed by Temujin today.

However, the Liang army simply never died. At the critical moment, Yang Yansi and Yang Yanshun, who were the vanguards, took the lead in leading the cavalry and entered the camp.

Immediately afterwards, the soldiers of the Sui army also joined the battlefield in large numbers, fighting together!

Immediately, a scuffle broke out on the scene, and its tragic degree must not be mentioned.

The two sides fought for a long time, due to the destruction of the back camp of the Turkic army and the strong attack of the Sui army.

Temujin took the overall situation into consideration, and knew that if he continued to fight, there would be no other way but to lose troops and generals!
Immediately, Temujin ordered his generals O Kuotai and Tuo Lei to open the way ahead, personally cut off the rear, and slowly retreated.

…………

The dark night gradually left, and the dawn finally came.

After a night of bloody battle, both the Liang army and the Sui army were exhausted.

At this time, the camp was full of bloody corpses, and the tragedy was indescribable!

It is only said that when the Liang and Sui armies were resting, Temujin also led the army to retreat and retreated to the Wushen Banner with its back against the desert.

After it is resupplied, it is planned to raise troops again to capture the Hetao area.

It is only said that after retreating to Wushen Banner, Temujin ordered Chi Laowen, who was firmly guarding Yulin, to quickly collect cattle, sheep and fodder, and transport them to Wushen Banner.

Later, Temujin also sent envoys to Jiuyuan, the capital of Liangguo, to question Dong Zhuo.

Jiuyuan, the main hall

"what?"

"Lü Bu betrayed me and raised his troops to stand on his own?"

Just say, suddenly, after hearing the news of Lu Bu's rebellion.

Dong Zhuo was shocked at first, but then he was filled with endless anger.

After all, that was an army of [-], nearly half of which were Dong Zhuo's direct descendants in Hanyang.

Dong Zhuo really couldn't figure out how Lü Bu persuaded his entire army to rebel against him.

In fact, Dong Zhuo probably didn't know until his death that Lv Bu had an expert behind him at this time, and Dong Zhuo was firmly counted among them.

After a long time, seeing that Dong Zhuo's anger gradually calmed down, Li Ru of Shangzhu Kingdom said slowly: "Your Majesty, I actually have something that I don't understand."

"That's why His Majesty has used Lu Bu so much, made him a great general, and led the Marquis of Wen. His status can be said to be below one person and above ten thousand people!"

"There must be something strange about why Lu Bu raised his troops to rebel."

Following Li Ru's words, Dong Ping on the side couldn't help lowering his head and remained silent.

It's just that Dong Zhuo is so angry now that he can't calm down and think about the problem.

"Dong Ping, I order you to lead the imperial guards to Lu Bu's mansion and kill his family members!"

For a moment, Dong Zhuo couldn't help being furious, roaring angrily.

Because Dong Ping had something wrong in his heart, he immediately took the order and left after hearing the words, not daring to stay for long!
In the main hall, Li Ru was the only one who felt very suspicious when he saw Dong Ping's actions.
