Chapter 513 Southwest Defense Li Yikui
"Invite them to attack, and we'll wait for work." Fan Fan gave the suggestion.
Li Xuandao refused to listen, and Fan Fan had nothing to do. Neither of the two armies could command the other.
“The baggage of fifty thousand people depends on local fishing, hunting, and mountain vegetables.”
Li Xuandao hesitated. If he didn't solve it for a long time, he wouldn't have enough food.
"If you want to eat, let it be delivered later. Tell the salt merchants in Shu that they will keep accounts of what they send and return to Chang'an to be replenished by Lijiazhuangzi.
What we need for hunting is not only meat, but also fur. Dongzhu Li said that it is not easy for ordinary hunters to hunt once, but it is convenient for the army. "
Fan Fan came up with a compromise.
"Li Yi wants fur?" Li Xuandao understood.
The army went hunting and took the furs back to Yu Lin Feiqi, but Li Yi took them.
The Shu salt merchant is responsible for the logistics supply and will settle the settlement with Li Yi when the time comes.
"Yes, there are also iron-eating beasts. Li Dongzhao lives them. He said those things are black and white and are bears. They eat bamboo and sometimes some meat."
Fan Fan told Li Yi's request when they were traveling.
"It's not easy to catch a bear alive." Li Xuandao was afraid that the soldiers would be injured when he heard about catching bears alive.
"Use nets, dig traps, and drive them away. As long as you bring one alive, Dongzhu Li will give you 10,000 yuan. It's best to have a male, a female, and a child."
Fan Fan stretched out a finger, ten thousand strings.
"Easy to handle, this is easy." Li Xuandao heard the money figure and found that all problems were not problems.
"They eat bamboo, so bring more bamboo with you," Fan Fan reminded.
"It's easy to say. When we walked back, there were bamboos along the way. I don't believe they won't eat other bamboos when they are hungry."
Li Xuandao waved his hand, indicating that there was no problem.
Now he didn't worry about the court saying that he was delaying the war and wasting money and food.
There is an advantage to not taking the initiative to penetrate deep into the opponent's area, as your own casualties will be small.
There are hot air balloons staring at the sky, and there are a thousand feathers flying on the ground.
If the southwestern barbarian army doesn't attack, everyone will be wasted. Anyway, they took advantage before.
For a time, the troops commanded by Li Xuandao stayed on guard as soon as they refused to go into the jungle.
Then with the help of a hot air balloon, they find a safe place to hunt, catch fish, etc., and their morale is immediately high.
They don't want to go into the forest, it's uncomfortable, there is water on the leaves in the forest, it's wet, and there are so many mosquitoes and poisonous snakes.
We are not afraid of fighting, but we are worried about non-combat attrition.
After a few days like this, the Southwest Barbarians really suffered a loss. When they rushed out, they faced an attack from the Tang army.
After trying several sneak attacks in succession, the soldiers of the Southwest Barbarians found that they could not achieve the purpose of the sneak attack. Instead, they were ambushed by the Tang army.
After analysis and research, they found that there was something wrong with the thing flying in the sky.
At this time, the news finally came from Tibet, which had asked the southwestern barbarians to cooperate in attacking the Tang Dynasty.
Tell them that there is something called a hot air balloon in the Tang Dynasty, which can fly in the sky. There are people on it and they can see the situation below.
The various tribes gathered in the southwestern barbarians realized that no wonder they always suffered losses, that's why.
After discussion, they decided that since they would be discovered during the day, they would go out at night.
I can see a little light from that thing at night, but I can't see myself and others on it. I won't light a torch.
They organized themselves and wanted to fight hard, and rushed out together under the cover of night.
It would be better if there was no moon in the sky.
It was night, and the Southwest Barbarians were dispatched. The Yulin Flying Cavalry in the hot air balloon used a night vision device to observe the situation below and discovered the situation.
Quickly find a place with leeward wind, write quickly on a piece of paper, draw a simple picture at the same time, and shoot it with an arrow.
Just a night vision device, otherwise you can watch the action from below.
"Shoot!" 'Swish, swish, swish' The frontmost troops of the Southwest Barbarians who rushed out and arrived at the military stronghold encountered a dense rain of arrows.
It was accompanied by rockets, which ignited some oiled hay on the ground.
The hay is lit and its main purpose is lighting.
The prepared soldiers of the Tang Dynasty were alert. In addition to the defenders, some of them bypassed the place where the southwest barbarians rushed towards and ran to the back.
It was hard to see how the arrows flew at night, and the charging team of the Southwest Barbarians felt as if the people around them were falling one after another under the moonlight.
Immediately afterwards, there was intensive sound of horse hooves from both sides, which was obviously a cavalry charge.
The team suddenly became panicked, and no one wanted to face the cavalry directly.
But there were also people squatting on the ground holding long weapons, with one end of the weapon stuck in the ground and the other end facing diagonally forward.
They waited for the impact to come.
‘Whoosh whoosh~~~’ There was another rain of arrows, and Yulin Feiqi did not charge into the formation at all.
They were horse archers, and only fools charged in. A single charge would knock down many people and horses.
The cavalry has inertia when running, and its arrows have a long range.
A row of cavalrymen finished firing their arrows, turned their horses' heads, ran parallel to each other, and headed back for a while. The cavalrymen behind them rushed up and fired their arrows again.
Half an hour later, the Southwest Barbarians finally understood that the sneak attack had failed and that the opponent was prepared to withdraw.
It's safe if you go into the woods.
Those who run fast should go in first. Those who run slowly will face the cavalry shooting behind them. They can't see it anyway, so they can aim in the general direction and shoot arrows.
During the retreat, the southwestern barbarians fell one by one. They finally understood that fighting at night was even more detrimental to them.
The group of people in front withdrew, and when the people in front of them withdrew again, the attack of the Tang army who had bypassed the ambush in advance appeared.
While firing arrows, he shouted the words "surrender without killing" in the southwestern barbarian language.
When the situation became clear, the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty ran to clean up the battlefield, looking at the southwestern barbarians who were almost alive, and treating them.
The dead are piled up together, and those who can't be saved are given a break.
Li Xuandao wrote a memorial and quickly took it with him to Chang'an.
At this time, the city of Chang'an is not as warm as the southwest, and it becomes cold in the morning.
The street sweeper hummed, "I have a flower that grows in my heart. No one understands true love..."
"Today is September 15th, and there has been no movement from Li Yi for many days." Zhang said that after returning from Xingqing Palace, he thought about the time.
"Don't be afraid. What was he doing this time last year? Is there nothing going on? He can't think about things all day long."
Lu Huaishen said with a hint of guilt. He was also worried that Li Yi, who had not appeared for several days, would suddenly enlarge his moves.
Yao Chong frowned: "The noodles produced by the Ministry of Revenue are selling well. UU Reading www.uukanshu.net The officials of the Ministry of Revenue accounted part of the profits to the court, and divided the other part among themselves."
Hearing Yao Chong talk about noodles, Zhang said in a dull voice: "The other ministries are not happy and feel that how can one of the imperial court do business?"
"What does it have to do with merchants that they are unhappy? It's obviously because they didn't get the money. Bigou said this is some administrative department trying to develop a secondary industry, processing."
Lu Huaishen said something that everyone understood.
"Li Yi suffered a loss this time. He didn't do good business by himself. He insisted on trying to please Bi Gou. I heard he can earn more than a hundred yuan a day from noodles."
When Yao Chong talked about the noodles, he felt a little gloating.
At the same time, he was still dissatisfied that Li Yi was kind to Bi Gou and gave other ideas, including money-making ones.
"The flour in the household department must be exchanged from Lijiazhuangzi, so Li Yi can make some profit." Zhang said that he also felt that Li Yi suffered a loss.
