The Lin people belong to a social system that is half farming and half hunting, with some nomadic characteristics.

There is no fixed location for the royal tent.

Often when the Chanyu is there, the people will follow him wherever he goes.

The place where the Chanyu set up his tent was the location of the king's tent.

There are also three huge camps built around the King's tent of the Xi clan.

These camps are not far from the king's tent and are shaped like horns.

Just like when the Central Plains Dynasty built a large city, it had to build several acropolis nearby.

Once an enemy launches a large-scale attack, the three camps will echo with the king's tent, which can not only assist the defense of the king's tent but also contain the enemy.

Just when Li Chongyi was looking at the map.

Ba Tianlei opened the curtain and came closer.

Seeing Li Chongyi at the stove, he hurriedly came over and warmed himself by the fire.

Both of them came from the western suburbs camp, and they were comrades who had known each other for the longest time.

Seeing Li Chongyi looking at the map, he also leaned over to take a look.

"How many guards do you think are there in the King's tent of the Clan?"

Li Chongyi asked without raising his head.

Ba Tianlei was stunned for a moment, then said: "It won't exceed eight thousand."

"Only eight thousand?"

Li Chongyi squinted his eyes and couldn't believe it.

"That's too much to say."

Ba Tianlei said: "This time the Northeast Sanfang went to war with Datang, but they gathered nearly 150,000 troops."

"Not only did they draw strong men from tribes in various places, but they also sent out all the troops directly under their own tribes."

"Obviously, Northeastern wants to fight to the death with our Datang for three times. Let Datang know that they are a tough nut to crack and they will not dare to use troops against them easily in the future."

"It's just that who would have thought that our Highness could entangle them on the front line and at the same time send people from the rear to raid their royal tent."

"Sometimes, I really have to admire the mind of our Highness."

"Although he is not as old as you and me, his talent in commanding troops and fighting is really unparalleled."

Hearing this, Li Chongyi nodded in agreement and smiled.

"Now, His Highness has created a great situation. All that remains is how our army will fight this battle."

Ba Tianlei raised his head and looked at Li Chongyi: "How are you going to fight when you arrive at the King's tent of the King's Tribe? Do you want to deal with the three surrounding camps first?"

"Since there are not many enemy soldiers, there is no need to do anything extra. You can just lead the brothers directly into the king's tent."

Li Chongyi sneered and said: "I would like to see how courageous this King Xi is to dare to go against me, the Tang Dynasty."

"It's a good time to try whether his neck is tough or my head-ringing knife is sharp."

Ba Tianlei has no objection to this.

Having spent so much time with him, Ba Tianlei knows what this guy is good at.

What Li Chongyi is best at is hand-to-hand combat.

And few can match him in this regard.

For example, he commanded the battles at the beginning of this battle, and even almost turned the tide of the entire battle on his own.

Unfortunately, there were too many enemy cavalry, so his efforts were in vain and he could only retreat with the army.

Otherwise, if he had won this battle, he might not have to go through such trouble now.

There is a lot of food in the camp, most of which are dried meat and frozen goods.

The soldiers of Liangzhou were not used to the food of the people of Lin, so they had to eat the food they brought with them.

Fortunately, there was fire and water in the village, so he didn't have to eat hard food that was frozen.

Lin Ren also has tea, but it is goat milk tea. It tastes like food, but it is not difficult to swallow.

Eating dry food and drinking tea, coupled with the dried meat made by Lin Ren, whether it is delicious or not, at least filling the stomach will not be a problem.

night.

Some of the Liangzhou soldiers gathered in Linren's tent, while others sat outside in small groups, chatting and laughing.

Looking at them, there seems to be no trace of the tension before the battle.

And this is the Liangzhou soldiers, a legion born to fight.



The next day.

The soldiers of Liangzhou set out and before leaving the house, they habitually planned to set fire to the village.

However, he was stopped by Li Chongyi.

According to Ba Tianlei, this place is not far from the king's tent of the Shang clan.

If it were set on fire, it might alert the barbarian soldiers.

Furthermore, it is not that we will never return. When we come back, we may need this place to stay.

The journey is still difficult, but with the supplies from the camp, the Liangzhou soldiers are much more comfortable than before.

This is mainly because the animal skins in the camp were used by Liangzhou soldiers.

Animal skins are much warmer than cotton-padded jackets. If you wrap them around your body, you won't be afraid of the mountain wind.

At this time, the soldiers of Liangzhou no longer had a military appearance. They were all wearing animal skins and looked similar to the people of Pei.

And Ba Tianlei didn't lie. The small camp was indeed not too far from the king's tent.

Everyone hurriedly walked for another day and night, and finally walked out of the mountains.

After passing through a large forest, looking forward, the shadow of a huge camp appeared vaguely in the sight.

That is the King's Tent of the Xi Clan.

After walking for a full six days, they finally saw the figure of the King's tent of the King's clan, and all the soldiers in Liangzhou were extremely excited.

Li Chongyi immediately ordered the entire army to retreat to the forest to rest for two hours.

After these two hours, the exhausted Liangzhou soldiers sat directly on the ground and fell asleep.

Li Chongyi walked to the edge of the forest, climbed an old tree, and looked in the direction of the king's tent.

Because the distance was too far, he couldn't see clearly, but he just felt that the scale of the King's tent of the King's clan was huge.

After two hours, it happened to be noon.

Li Chongyi sent an order to the soldiers to fill their bellies and prepare to launch an attack.

Even though the Liangzhou soldiers are usually loose, but when they go to the battlefield, the Liangzhou soldiers still move neatly.

Everyone formed a fighting formation, everyone's eyes widened and they held their breath.

They just waited for Li Chongyi's order to rush out.

Li Chongyi looked back and saw that his brothers were ready. He drew out his sword and held it high.

After pausing in the air for three seconds, he suddenly fell down and shouted at the same time: "Go!"

More than four thousand Liangzhou soldiers poured out of the dense forest like a tide.

Their running speed was increased to the extreme, and they rushed straight to the tent of the king of the Xi tribe.

The Royal Tent of the Lin Clan is the core and largest village of the Lin Clan.

People from Lin people came in and out, and there was a constant flow of people, making it very lively.

But Lin Ren never imagined that Liangzhou soldiers would penetrate deep into their own territory without anyone noticing and attack the king's tent.

It wasn't until the Liangzhou soldiers were less than 500 meters away from the King's tent of the King's clan that the defenders of the King's tent of the King's King's clan realized the enemy's situation.

At that time, people at the village gate of the King's tent of the King's clan were shouting and shouting.

The soldiers of the Lin tribe wanted to close the gate of the village, but the gate was full of bridges and crowded with people, so the gate could not be closed at all.

From a distance, seeing the chaos at the other side's village gate, Li Chongyi knew that the other side had finally discovered his whereabouts.

He even sped up his horse, turned around and shouted: "Fire the arrow!"

When the Liangzhou soldiers heard this, they took off the long bows on their backs one after another, then took out their arrows, set the arrow strings, and fired arrows in unison.

call!

A hail of arrows rose into the air from the cavalry formation, drawing a long arc in the air, and then fell rapidly towards the gate of the King's Tent of the King's Tribe.
