Chapter 539 Put it to death and then live 7
"General Zhang, you, this is..."
Lu Hui Bayan was talking vigorously. Suddenly, when he saw that Zhang Chen's face was wrong, he couldn't help but be a little dumbfounded. He really couldn't figure out what he said wrong, which would make Zhang Chen look like this.
"It's okay. Come on, come on, go and invite the young patriarch to come!"
Zhang Chen was very anxious. He really didn't want to talk to Lu Hui Bayan in detail. He hurriedly drank his voice. His own personal guard Ying Nuo left. After a short time, he had led Lu back to Bayan's grandson into the account.
"See, see, see, general, I, I..."
The grandson of the old patriarch was originally pestering Tang officers and soldiers to ask questions. He was suddenly summoned into the big account. He couldn't help but be a little nervous, and his little body trembling so much that even a simple gift was out of shape.
"You're welcome, the young patriarch. There will be some things to be verified, and please tell the truth."
Zhang Chen was anxious, but he was afraid of scaring the teenager. He could only suppress the uneasiness in his heart, squeezed out a smile, and said as gently as possible.
"Ah, I, I..."
The little guy didn't learn Chinese very well. Under this tension, he immediately became a little stagger. He couldn't say a complete word for a long time. He blushed and had to turn his eyes for help to his grandfather.
"General Zhang asked you what to say. Don't worry, Grandpa is here."
Although Lu Hui Bayan didn't understand how anxious Zhang Chen was, as soon as he saw that he didn't want to be joking, he also kept more careful. Instead of using Chinese, he told his grandson to say in his native language.
"Oh, I see."
As soon as he heard his grandfather say so, the teenager calmed down and nodded and agreed.
"General Zhang, this grandson is stubborn and never learns it well. He has been learning Chinese literature for several years, but he hasn't learned it completely. If General Zhang doesn't mind, how about it be translated by him?"
Lu Hui Bayan was afraid that his little grandson's words would anger Zhang Chen. As soon as he turned his mind, he immediately accompanied him with a smiling face and proposed euphemistically.
"Well, please ask the old patriarch to ask how the young patriarch discovered the Tubo army, how many people are there, and where are they going? Do you know who is the leading general?"
Zhang Chen didn't say more politely. He nodded thoughtfully and threw out a large list of questions in one breath.
"General Zhang, please wait a moment." Although Lu Hui Bayan didn't know much about military strategy, as soon as he heard these questions, he also knew that the military situation might have changed. He did not dare to neglect it. After responding, he asked his grandson in detail in his native language.
"How's it going? But have you figured it out?"
Poor Zhang Chenkong was anxious, but he couldn't understand the language of Lu Hui. He was so anxious that he rubbed his hands. When Lu Hui Bayan turned around, he didn't wait for him to open his mouth and roared and asked.
"General Zhang, this matter is indeed a little strange. According to the old bad grandson, those troops did go to the Buha River. The exact number is hard to say, but I know a lot. I can't see the head or the end. It's dark. The bad grandson dares not get too close. I really don't know who led the army. I just heard the heavy armor friction. The loud voice is endless. I think there is no doubt that this team should be the elite soldiers of Tibet.
Lu Hui Bayan rubbed his hands a few times with some guilt, and the old man blushed and explained it slightly, saying that it was all speculation such as general and possibility.
"How did the young patriarch find this army?"
Although Zhang Chen was not satisfied with such a ambiguous answer, he could not blame the teenager for his carefulness. He could only ask with a forced smile.
"This..., hehe, it's also an accident. The bad grandson is very active. In order to chase a scattered calf, he ran out of the pasture of my tribe and walked dozens of miles all the way to the west. He happened to meet this army passing by. The bad grandson did not dare to get too close. While it was dark, he turned around and returned to the tribe. He did mention this matter to the old man. I didn't care, but I didn't know that the general was so concerned. Otherwise, the old man would definitely make people explore the details.
Lu Hui Bayan is an old and sophisticated person. At this time, how can he not know that this army rushing on the road at night may affect the change of the war situation? He is very sad, but there is no way. He can only explain a few words with a smile.
"Well, it's useless to say these things now. The old patriarch, it should not be too late. I will fix a letter immediately. Please rush back to the patriarch immediately and send this letter to Your Highness's army as soon as possible. Remember, remember!"
Although Lu Hui Bayan's several explanations were very vague, Zhang Chen had already made a judgment in his heart, but he did not make more explanations. After a long sigh, regardless of Lu Hui Bayan's expression, he turned to a simple and extremely simple few, tore off a large piece of cloth from the robe, bitten his finger, and was in a hurry. Zhang Di quickly wrote several lines of big words on the cloth with his blood finger, and then handed the cloth to Lu Hui Bayan's hand.
"Well, general, take care. I'm going to arrange it now."
Seeing that Zhang Chen's expression was so solemn, Lu Hui Bayan did not dare to neglect him. He hurriedly answered the promise and did not stay much. He led his grandson to leave in a hurry.
"Well, I hope it's not too late!"
Lu Hui Bayan's ancestors and grandchildren have gone, but Zhang Chen did not relax at all. He looked at the north sky worriedly and muttered, and the color behind him suddenly sank. He raised his voice and shouted, "The whole army is gathered!"
With Zhang Chen's order, the Tang soldiers who were busy killing sheep and cooking immediately panicked...
Two flowers bloomed, each with one branch. Let alone how upset Zhang Chen was in the rubber mountain, but at the mountainside of Luoyingling, as soon as Lu Sansheng saw the carpenter's work of the Tubo army at the foot of the mountain, his heart immediately tightened up, just because he had seen the calculations of the Tubo army - the effective range of the needle attack of the Tang army was very long, with 350 steps. In the distance, the penetration force is also very strong, but it is almost impossible to penetrate the wooden shield covered with a few layers of cowhide. If it is really pushed up the mountain by the Tubo army, the firepower advantage of the Tang army will be gone. As soon as this situation occurs, how can Lu Sansheng not be in a hurry?
"Report!"
Under Lu Sansheng's hurry, he didn't dare to neglect it, and he didn't care about it. He turned around and rushed back to the regiment headquarters at the second stone wall again and shouted outside the tent.
"Huh? Come in!"
The previous battle was extremely smooth. Xiao Sanlang, Liu Ziming and others were in a good mood. They were chatting and laughing in the big account. Lu Sansheng, who had just left, turned back. He couldn't help but be a little stunned. After all, Xiao Sanlang reacted quickly and only said softly and called in.
"Report to the brigade commander, the thief under the mountain is rushing to make a wooden shield. It seems that he still intends to wear cowhide on the shield. It is very difficult for our guard. Please ask the brigade commander to approve the use of rolling thunder."
Lu Sansheng walked into the account, and a standard salute was reported loudly.
"Oh? There is such a thing. Let's go and have a look!"
Xiao Sanlang has been running the First Brigade of the Army for a long time, and he is very clear about the advantages and disadvantages of the army's preparation. Hearing that the Tubo army found a way to deal with the stitch gun so quickly, he was really surprised, but he did not bring it to his face, nor did he make a decision on Lu Sansheng's request, but clapped his hands and stood up. With a quiet wave of his hand, he strode out of the account. When Liu Ziming and other generals saw this, they also followed.
"Bidge commander, the thief's army is not slow. If you suddenly attack the mountain, I'm afraid our army will be tight. Please ask the brigade commander to make it clear!"
A group of people surrounded Xiao and Liu Er to the stone wall. Looking down, they immediately had a panoramic view of the situation at the foot of the mountain. However, neither Xiao Sanlang nor Liu Ziming were in a hurry to say anything. This made Lu Sansheng very anxious. Seeing that dozens of wooden shields of the Tubo army had been driven out of its shape, Lu Sansheng was really He couldn't be steady and asked for instructions from the side with an anxious face.
"I'll give you 40 pieces, save some!"
After Xiao Sanlang calculated silently for a while, he made an extremely stingy promise - it was not that Xiao Sanlang was reluctant, but it was really difficult for logistics transfer. Although the strong team that had mobilized nearly 10,000 people in Hexi was transporting supplies for the first brigade, but the road was difficult, and there were really few supplies that could be delivered every day. What a pity. At this time, the landlord's family has no surplus food. Xiao Sanlang wants to be generous, but he can't be generous. He can only save it.
"Ah..."
The vanguard battalion is an army in the army, and the supplies have always been sufficient. Lu Sansheng, as the battalion commander, is used to being generous. He originally thinks that he can make more than a hundred thunderbolts if he does not apply for this. When he heard that Xiao Sanlang only gave forty, he was a little dumbfounded.
"How much do you think? Then subtract ten more."
Lu Sansheng was a soldier brought out by Xiao Sanlang. He knew his nature very well. When he saw his face, he knew that the boy was thinking about something and was too lazy to talk nonsense with him, so he said quietly.
"Ah, no, forty pieces are forty pieces, I recognize it!"
Lu San wanted to make some hidden bars for the fierce battle, but when he heard Xiao Sanlang's words, he didn't dare to hold on any more. He hurriedly answered and rushed to the heavy camp at the top of the mountain.
"Woo, woo, woo..."
The Tubo army was determined to be ashamed. The action was very fast. With all the people, it took only more than half an hour. Nearly 30 giant shields had been made. In a sad sound of horn, nearly 3,000 Tubo soldiers carried wooden shields and shouted horns. Under the leadership of Kulun Jianji, they went to the mountain again. The waist launched an attack, but this time the Tubo army did not rush wildly, but pushed forward slowly with five huge shields. Although the speed was not fast, the pressure on the officers and soldiers of the vanguard battalion suddenly increased.
Since the Tibetan army has changed its array, the vanguard battalion has also changed its deployment. In addition to the first company and the second company still lined up in two rows, the officers and soldiers of the first company all hid behind the stone wall, holding fire ropes and other things, nervously waiting for the order of landing three victories. A battle of shields or spearman is about to begin...
