Chapter 41 The calm before the decisive battle

The valleys around Lintao are in the shape of an "f" in the shape of a "huwan" in the mountains between two horizontal valleys facing west. Hukou Fort is at the intersection of the second horizontal valley and the vertical valley. In order not to disturb the nearly a thousand thieves in Hukou Fort, the first and second brigades can only block the road for Lang Meng to escape in the middle of the night.

After midnight, countless people were in the moonlight, and the snow was shining south. No one spoke. Horses, mules, and yaks were all chewed, avoiding louder sounds as much as possible.

Sun Niu was very envious of the entire cavalry equipment of the First Battalion, and he lamented many times in front of Dong Hu along the way.

"The big leader is too partial. The first brigade is not without extra mules and horses..."

"You little damn it. If you black bull works hard, you will all get some war horses after this battle."

Dong Hu walked over from behind at some point, and just heard Sun Niu whipping him lightly with a horse whip.

Sun Niu stood up straight as if he had changed his face and said seriously: "Don't worry, the second team has no cowards. He will definitely fight to kill the enemy and kill those damn thieves in one fell swoop!"

Dong Hu knew Sun Niu’s thoughts and patted him on the back twice. While following the large army, he said, “Once we blocked Lang Meng’s retreat, the first wave of attacks will definitely be extremely fierce. In order to reduce damage, you have to fight and retreat slowly… Do you understand?”

This matter has been specifically explained. After hearing Dong Hu speak again, Sun Niu slapped his chest and promised: "Don't worry, brothers all know that there will be no trouble!"

Dong Hu patted him on the back twice.

"That Lang Meng is an extremely cunning madman. The first wave will definitely not let those yaks ride wolf guards to attack your second team. They will definitely force those miscellaneous soldiers who are specifically used to die to fight against you, but our target is not these miscellaneous soldiers!"

"While resisting, slowly retreating, and breaking the miscellaneous soldiers from the wolf guards, the first brigade will cut the rebels into two pieces. If those miscellaneous soldiers are gone, we can surrender them. In this way, we will become two-for-one on one. If the third and fourth brigades are added, it will be four-for-one, and then Lang Meng will die!"

"So, the task of your second brigade is particularly arduous. You cannot mess up the formation. You must fight for a quarter of an hour first, and slowly retreat after a quarter of an hour. You must never let those miscellaneous soldiers break through the defense line!"

Sun Niu took a deep breath and said solemnly again: "Don't worry, the boss, our black bull will never let those miscellaneous soldiers break through the defense line!"

Dong Hu remakes Sun Niu's back.

"Be careful, don't die."

After saying that, Dong Hu didn't say much anymore and turned his back to find Dong Xiaoyi.

While Dong Hu walked out of Tiger Bay and moved south, Yao Shan and Hua Xiong also led thousands of soldiers out of Lintao City. They needed to approach five miles of Hukou Fort before dawn. In order to prevent the impact of yak riding, dozens of carriages were accompanied.

Two soldiers from south and north walked out of the warm bed, taking advantage of the night to approach the unknown Ganlang Qiang rebels, while the entire Dong Mansion was brightly lit. Not only did Dong sit in the hall, but the county magistrate Sun Ying and a group of officials also sat in the hall, but no one spoke.

Perhaps the atmosphere was too depressing. After drinking a drink, the county magistrate, who was over 50 years old, looked at the silent Dong.

"Madam, is it too early to fight at this time?"

Dong smiled and said, "The county magistrate also read the letter sent by Huwa. Only the explanation mentioned by Huwa can explain Tonglang Meng's strange behavior."

County Magistrate Sun Ying nodded silently and said, "As the wife said, Xiaguan also felt that Lang Meng was killing people with a knife and our hands to kill those people who might be dissatisfied. But because of the resentment of the Ganlang Qiang people, Xiaguan felt that there was no need to take too much risk. If he could send an envoy to come, wouldn't it be safer to say that he surrendered to Shenlang Qiang?"

Dong smiled gently, looked at the officials of the county government office one by one, and said with a smile: "What the county magistrate said is right. If you can convince Ganlang Qiang to surrender, it will be the safest. But this matter is too dangerous, who should I send you?"

Dong looked at the officials of a group of county government officials, and everyone's expression changed drastically. One suddenly stood up and bowed deeply to Dong.

"The villain agrees with what Huwa said, the ginseng, wolf and Qiang repeatedly invaded Lintao, but they were repeatedly fierce and brutal. If they surrender today, they will rebel again in the future, and they will slaughter our good people again. Instead of doing this, it is better to completely eradicate such cancers once and for all!"

When a member of the county government saw that Dong was not good, he looked at him, he complained to the county magistrate Sun Ying. No matter how many people died, he was the soldiers recruited by the tiger kid. He didn't have to spend money on his own. Instead, he had many benefits. Where can I find such a good thing? But Sun Ying still had to make trouble.

Everyone in Lintao knows that Lang Meng is a lunatic. Go to Ganlang Qiang to surrender? Suppress the Lang Meng? Or let the Ganlang Qiang people kill Lang Meng?

No matter how you look at it, they are all crazy people.

Lang Meng's actions exceeded the moral scope of scholars. No matter which one surrendered, he would inevitably become a villain in the eyes of all scholars. However, if he secretly surrendered Lang Meng's subordinates, he would probably have been made into a human-skin war drum by Lang Meng before he could reach the Ganlang Valley.

Sun Ying smiled bitterly in his heart. If he was over fifty years old and thought about the Yin Dong family, he would definitely not dare. He would also think of someone to surrender in front of the formation, which shakes the morale of Lang Meng’s army in front of the formation.

The crowd whispered to each other, and Dong looked at Sun Ying and smiled and said, "My magistrate, don't worry. Huwa can see Lang Meng's plan, so he will definitely consider it. He should be sure to destroy the thief in one battle."

Sun Ying nodded and sighed, "The officials are not against the tiger's destruction of the thieves, but think... Since Lang Meng wants to use our hands to kill the Filing Lang Guards, we will first kill or surrender the Filing Lang Guards. Our army is four times higher than Lang Meng, and then kill the thiefs, which is more secure."

After hearing this, everyone felt that they would kill the miscellaneous soldiers first, and that the two thousand will be more sure to fight against five hundred.

Dong nodded slightly and sighed: "What the county magistrate said is not wrong, but... in this way, it is difficult to convince the Qiang people in Ganlang Valley and bow their heads."

Everyone was shocked.

Dong said: "It is not difficult to kill all the thieves who entered the country. After the tiger kid was killed by the man's Shenlang Qiang, it is not difficult to make them bow their heads, but in their eyes, we are no different from the cruel and unkind Lang Meng. They are also the butcher who slaughtered their relatives. How can we think about the Baima Qiang who is close to Shenlang Qiang?"

Dong sighed: "Which Huwa will send troops at this time, although he will kill many people, there will be some miscellaneous soldiers who will survive. Afterwards, just treat them well and comfort them. Shenlang Valley will calm down. The nearby Baima Qiang will not have too much turmoil, and Lintao will be completely stable."

"There is no fault of Huwa doing this."

After hearing this, everyone nodded together. It is true that Dong is the princess of Baima Qiang, but how could the survival between tribes be ignored by one person?
