Qin Ming smiled casually and said:
"Tuyuhun and Dangxiangduo cavalry are better at fighting in the field than attacking cities."
"If it were my enemy general, instead of using most of the troops to capture Lanzhou City in such a short period of time, it would be better to choose a hidden place to wait for the opportunity, and then use the advantage of the cavalry to catch the reinforcements off guard. "
"In short, my nephew is just comparing his feelings and making random guesses. As for whether it is right or wrong, it is up to the two uncles to decide for themselves."
After Yuchi Gong and Xue Wanche listened, a little cold sweat broke out on their foreheads.
In just two days, Qin Ming had shocked them twice.
From yesterday's guerrilla tactics and sixteen-word mantra to tonight's encirclement and reinforcements, Qin Ming constantly refreshed their understanding of the battlefield.
Yuchi Gong swallowed his saliva and asked:
"Good nephew! Do you have a way to judge the barbarian's true intention?"
Qin Ming thought for a while and said:
"Send some more scouts to Lanzhou to find out if the enemy's main force is still at its original location. We will have results."
Yuchi Gong and Xue Wanche looked at each other and nodded slightly.
Yuchi said respectfully:
"Nephew Lao Xian is here tonight. It's getting late. You should go back and rest. I will arrange the rest."
Qin Ming was about to stand up and say goodbye when he suddenly remembered something and asked:
"Uncle, since the scout came back from Lanzhou, has he brought back any news about Uncle Cheng?"
Yuchi Gong shook his head, frowned and said:
"It's strange to talk about this. According to the scouts' report, the party's cavalry divided into ten groups and patrolled outside the city non-stop."
"Let alone a human being, not even a bird can fly out of Lanzhou City at this moment."
"But my nephew, there is no need to worry too much. After all, the scouts staying in Lanzhou all wear auspicious suits. I think they will exchange news with people in the city as long as there is a chance."
Qin Ming nodded when he heard this, bowed to Yuchi Gong and the others and said:
"That's very good. Uncle Yuchi, Uncle Xue, if there is nothing else, my nephew will leave first."
Yuchi Gong and the other two nodded and said:
"My dear nephew, walk slowly. I will order someone to take you back."
After saying that, Yuchi Gong and Xue Wanche each called a personal guard to come in, and they personally delivered Qin Ming to the gate of the county government office.
Qin and Mingchao saluted again and said:
"Thank you, uncles."
After saying that, Qin Ming got on his horse, took Zi Shu and two personal guards, and headed towards the Song Mansion.
After Qin Ming left, Yuchi Gong immediately called Xiao Jian over, and then gave him the task of finding out the enemy's main force.
...
At the time of Xu, outside Lanzhou City, there was a large tent of the Tuyuhun army.
A strong man wearing leather armor trotted into the tent and knelt on one knee.
"Reporting to the famous king, just now Party Xiang's cavalry captured a Tang Army scout who attempted to approach Lanzhou City."
Liang Qucong's eyes lit up, he put down his wine bowl and said:
"Bring him in."
"yes."
Not long after, the strong man in leather armor carried a large ball of green grass with one hand and dragged it with the other. A man with bruises all over his body walked into the big tent.
The strong man in leather armor threw the man to the ground, then held the big ball of green grass in his hands and handed it to Liang Qucong, saying:
"To report to the famous king, this dress is very strange. It was ripped off from his body. I would like to ask the famous king to take a look at it."
Liang Qucong looked at the auspicious suit with curious eyes, then turned towards Murong Xiujun and asked:
"Military advisor, have you ever seen such clothing?"
Murong Xiujun shook his head, took the auspicious suit from the strong man, and began to study it.
Liang Qucong withdrew his gaze and fell back on Tang Ren on the ground. Seeing that he seemed to be unconscious, he ordered the strong man in leather armor:
"Splash him awake."
"yes."
After the leather-armored man finished speaking, he glanced around and showed a cold smile.
He walked to the stove, picked up the big steaming iron kettle, and then poured hot water on Tang Ren on the ground.
"ah..."
Soon the Tang people on the ground were awakened by the hot water and let out sharp screams.
Most of the people in the tent turned a blind eye, and some even had excitement and bloodlust in their eyes.
Liang Qucong stood up and walked to Tang Ren's side. He waved his hand towards the leather-armored man to signal him to stop for a moment.
The strong man in leather armor weighed the iron pot in his hand, a trace of regret flashing in his eyes.
Liang Qucong slowly squatted down and asked the person on the ground:
"What is this king asking? You'd better answer honestly, otherwise hehe..."
Tang Ren, who was covered with bruises on the ground, heard this and kept opening and closing his lips.
"What do you want to ask?"
The voice is weak and hoarse.
Liang Qucong raised the corner of her mouth, leaned forward, and asked:
"Who is the guard of Dingxi City now?"
The Tang man on the ground raised his eyelids and said in a soft voice:
"The guard is..."
Because the voice was too low, Liang Qucong couldn't hear it clearly, so she couldn't help but move closer.
The Tang man on the ground, his eyes flashing, slammed his hands on the ground and rushed towards Liang Qucong beside him.
"die..."
Tang Ren roared, opened his mouth and bit Liang Qucong's neck.
The unprepared Liang Qucong couldn't help being frightened. She pressed down on Tang Ren's shoulders with both hands and tilted her head back desperately.
This scene happened so fast that no one in the tent could react.
Murong Xiujun reacted the fastest. He shouted to the leather-armored man:
"Stop him."
The strong man in leather armor was almost frightened out of his wits when he saw this scene.
Hearing this roar, the leather-armored man immediately came to his senses, stretched out his two big hands, grabbed Tang Ren's calf, and pulled hard.
The rest of the soldiers who rushed up had already drawn their scimitars and slashed at the Tang people on the ground.
In an instant, the Tang man was chopped into several pieces by the barbarians.
Two quarters of an hour later,
Liang Qucong, with a brocade handkerchief wrapped around her neck, sat on the main seat with a gloomy expression.
There was total silence in the big tent, no one dared to speak and get into trouble.
Murong Xiujun hesitated for a moment, coughed dryly, shook the auspicious suit in his hand, and said with a serious face:
"King Ming, these clothes are quite strange. If the Tang Dynasty's scouts all wear such clothes, then our previous plan will most likely be discovered by the Tang Dynasty."
Liang Qucong raised his eyebrows when he heard this.
"This plan is related to the fate of our country in Tuyuhun. Does the military advisor have any good ideas?"
Murong Xiujun thought for a while and said:
"This dress is good, but its flaw is that it can only hide one's figure."
"However, if the enemy's scouts want to quickly deliver the news, they must ride on horseback. In this way, we only need to block all official roads in Lanzhou."
"Send more people to kill Lanzhou, Yuzhong, and Lintao. Any lone horses within forty miles of the three cities can be killed if you think about it. They are the source of most of the Tang people's intelligence."
"I, Tuyuhun, want to settle the matter in one battle. I must clear out the Tang army's scouts between Lanzhou, Yuzhong and Lintao at any cost."
Liang Qucong nodded when he heard this, glanced at Murong Sheng, and said coldly:
"General Murong, I will leave this matter to you, but if there is any mistake, I will kill you without mercy."
Murong Sheng trembled when he heard this, took a step forward and knelt down on one knee.
"The last general takes orders."
Liang Qucong waved his hand and said:
"Go down and make arrangements."
"yes."
