Chapter 1008 while it's hot

The newly slaughtered sheep wrapped the mashed sheep liver into strips with net oil, then skewed together and roasted on fire. It is extremely simple and there is no complicated marinating and seasoning. It is slowly roasted by the fire. The net oil becomes golden and slightly burnt, and the oil falls drop by drop.

Cheng Qian took out the salt he had with him and sprinkled a handful of fine salt on it.

"It's a pity that there is no pepper. It would be even better if I had some more fuji and added some spicy flavor."

The four generals couldn't help but squirm in their throats as they looked at the golden sheep oil, and saliva was almost flowing out of the corners of their mouths.

"Have you worn the mutton skewers?" Cheng Qian asked.

"Okay, okay, a piece of mutton and a piece of mutton tail oil will make it dripping oil when grilled, it will definitely taste good!" Gao Zhensheng quickly handed Cheng Qian the mutton skewers he had worn.

Cheng Qian skillfully grilled beside the charcoal fire. This was the skill he learned slowly after eating Qin Lang skewers. It can be said that it is better than the skills of most chefs.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince divided the freshly baked oil-wrapped liver to everyone and took a bite. It turned out that the same taste was still the same.

fresh.

"No matter what the reason Tuoba Chici and others have delayed, no matter why Hou Junji has not arrived for a long time, I have decided to wait until dawn to strike while the iron is hot and chase Murong Cheng again. The reason you said is correct, but I also know that you are all powerful generals under Qin Lang. Now I say this because I am here. If I am not here, I guess you will all be killed in Murong Cheng's camp tonight..."

"Let your brothers have a good meal. Don't be reluctant to kill the seized cattle and sheep. How good is the meat of the dead horse as beef and mutton? Although you lose weight in this season, it's not as good as fat sheep in autumn, but it's still good to eat when you open it."

"You four of you can discuss and see who stays behind?" Cheng Qian smiled and finished eating a bunch of mutton oil to wrap his liver, and continued the next bunch.

The four generals looked at each other, and the prince just said it was right. If it weren't for the prince's army, they would have really been chasing them to the end today. They wouldn't have rested here at all, and wouldn't have proposed any plan to stick to the support.

When fighting, you have to pursue and fight relentlessly. The way to truly defeat a large army is always to pursue it continuously until the other party completely disintegrates and there is no possibility of reunion.

It's not their style to retreat with just one blow.

I remember that when they followed Duke Wei to fight Dangxiang and pacify Tuyuhun, they didn’t have the same battle after battle, one wave after another, and the way they played, and finally the opponent they fought completely collapsed?

But now, the prince's surprise victory in the army was very dangerous. Dangxiang, Turks and other subsequent 30,000 cavalrymen failed to arrive as expected, and Hou Junji's infantry riding horses and mules were delayed, so they had to consider the prince.

Just stop when you see it is good.

But His Royal Highness had no intention of stopping when he saw it was good. He was not satisfied with this victory. Although it was already a brilliant victory, it would definitely be surprising to countless people when he passed it back to the Luoyang court and the emperor won the victory.

This is the first battle of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and it is also the first victory that amazed the world. Putting it on an eighteen crown prince is enough to amazed the world.

Even if the emperor raised an army at the age of sixteen, he never fought such a beautiful battle at the age of eighteen.

Chengqian could stop when he was ready and could wait for reinforcements here. The battles that followed were left to Hou Junji and others. No matter what the result was, his achievements would not be affected at all.

With this battle, he was able to completely suppress the King of Wei Li Tai and King of Wu Li Ke who coveted his position as the crown prince. The whole world, from inside to outside, would be more admirable to His Highness the crown prince in the future. In the past two years, the emperor's dissatisfaction with the crown prince and the dissatisfaction of some ministers and ministers against him will change because of this.

"Your Highness, the soldiers are exhausted!" Gao Kan advised.

Liang Jianfang also said, "Although we won this battle, there were many casualties, more than 3,000 deaths in battle, more than 1,000 serious injuries, and 5,000 people were directly reduced. Many soldiers suffered relief, and there were also many frostbite. In addition, our horses also suffered a lot of losses...."

They were talking to the prince about difficulties, hoping that the prince would retreat when he saw the difficulties.

"If we go to fight tomorrow, we can still fight at most 12,000, or even about 10,000. Murong Cheng has fled to the Tuyuhun garrison 20 miles away, where there are at least 30,000 new forces. In one night, Murong Cheng's defeated soldiers can gather a lot of them, and even tens of thousands of nearby troops may have received his orders and are rushing to reinforce. What we will face is not just Murong Cheng's defeated army, but the entire Tuyuhun's power, which may exceed 200,000."

"Ten thousand to twenty hundred thousand, it's too big a gap!"

Cheng Qian just laughed.

"I was going to come here to raid Murong Cheng. Don't you say that, but in fact, our 20,000 people exceeded 100,000. Even before General Gao, you arrived, General Xi and I broke through 100,000 for only 5,000. Now we will fight 200,000, right? We are even fighting the defeated army with a timid defeat, and we have the advantage in all!"

Several powerful generals don’t know how to speak. If they were before this battle, they would definitely believe that the prince started to commit crimes and die again. They would think that the prince was arrogant and ignorant, and that the world was not a good deal.

But after experiencing this battle, they could not blame the prince like that. After all, what the prince said was right. It was indeed 5,000 and exceeded 100,000.

Originally, their plan was to divide the 100,000 Helong soldiers into two armies, and to attack Murong Cheng in two hundred miles, and attack in a ladder. But who knew that in the end, the prince ran very fast, and five thousand people directly launched an attack, and he really killed Murong Cheng's 100,000 camp.

If Gao Kan and the others did not arrive in time, the prince's five thousand people would be in danger in the end, but in the end they only had to break 100,000 Tuyuhun people with 20,000 cavalry. Whether you say they were not prepared or the real elite among them was only about 20,000, or why, the winner was the king.

"Your Highness, it's different. We were rushing to attack and caught Murong Cheng off guard. They were completely unprepared, but now they have already alerted the snake. Although Murong Cheng was defeated first, he was already prepared. If he fights again, it will be different."

The fourth generals of Liang Gaozuo really wanted to fight, but they still had to press down on their thoughts and persuade the prince to give up his mind here.

"Wait a little longer, maybe Tuoba Chici and the others will arrive tonight? If the subsequent 30,000 ferry cavalry arrives, even if Hou Junji does not come, I will definitely support Your Highness to attack Murong Cheng!" Xi Junmai could only say this.

With 30,000 new forces added, even if they were foreign cavalry, there was no need to be afraid of Tuyuhun's troops being large and powerful.

"Why haven't these tyrants come yet? Could it be that they secretly colluded with Murong Cheng to betray the Tang Dynasty, or they were intentionally riding on the wall and watching the tiger fight, or they just wanted to preserve their strength? They wanted to work hard or not?"

Chengqian was very dissatisfied with the failure of the 30,000 vassals of Dangxiang and the Turks to arrive as expected.

They set out almost at the same time. Chengqian and Xi Junmai set out directly from Haiyan Fort, while Gao Kansan General gathered troops not far from Haiyan Fort. Tuoba Chici and other Dangxiang, Turkic tribes and other foreign cavalrymen, because they were stationed on the periphery of Haiyan Fort at that time, it might take some time to regroup, and the distance was a little further than them, but it was not much farther away, and it didn't take much time to assemble.

They fought from morning to night, and it had been two days and one night. Even if the roar was slow, it was not enough to slow down for several hours during the day, so they should have arrived this night.

Cheng Qian’s suspicion is actually Gao’s suspicion, but it’s not up to the evidence, so it’s hard to talk nonsense at the moment.

Gao Kan didn't want to blame his friendly troops at this time, so he made a smooth move. "I don't think they dare to be so ruthless. These 30,000 foreign cavalry were originally composed of Dangxiang Qiang, Bailan Qiang, Misang Qiang, Tuyuhun, Turks and other tribes. Although they were led by Tuoba Chici and Xifeng Bu Lai, they were definitely not as well-trained as the guards of the Helong Army of the Tang Dynasty. From the command to the gathering of the tribes, to the march all the way, it was normal for these people to be faster than us. Two hundred miles, it was another strong wind and snowy day. It took two days or even three or four days to reach the normal range."

The 30,000 foreign cavalry, including the Eight Dangxiang tribes, some of the Little Qiang, and some of the Di tribes, the Tuyuhun people who moved inward, the Turks who were placed, etc., can be said to be very complex in the composition. Before setting off, they were scattered over a hundred miles around Haiyan Fort, and it was not easy to gather them together. They could not use the standards of the elite Longyou, but they required these foreign cavalry.

The mutton is delicious, and the mutton tail oil is fatter. If it were in Chang'an, Chengqian would eat less and it was too greasy. However, when it was grilled in the mutton, the grilled oil was so tender that the mutton was even more tender.

After eating several large skewers in one go, Cheng Qian wiped his mouth.

"Tomorrow I will take 10,000 cavalry to attack, and the rest will be stationed here to take care of the wounded, guard the prisoners and capture them, and wait for reinforcements to arrive. Who of you will stay voluntarily?"

All the four generals refused to stay, and they persuaded Cheng Qian for a long time, but Cheng Qian was determined to pursue him.

"Qin Lang has a poem that is very domineering. Have you not read it? You should chase the remaining bravery and not seek fame to learn the overlord. How do you dominate? A group of dogs that are stray, and the orphans are so afraid of what to do?"

"Since you don't want to stay, then let the East Palace Qianniu Helan Chushi be responsible for staying behind. You will all follow the Ork and kill them all, and kill them all!"

"Things were arranged like this. All four generals went back to take a quick rest and sent troops early tomorrow morning."

Xi Junmai Gao kid Liang Jianfang Gao Zhensheng four generals were silent for a while, and finally looked at each other, and could only respond helplessly.

"Although the troops are sent tomorrow morning, we still have to be more careful tonight. We must arrange the guards on the camp. In addition, brothers should be able to wear helmets and armor, and wait for the sword. We cannot let the Tuyuhun thieves capsize the ship in the gutter for the current study and sale!" Cheng Qian said with a smile, and he patted his armor, "I will not remove this armor tonight, nor will I use weapons!"
