Chapter 46 Disputes

Because there were not many soldiers, Luo Shixin acted as a pioneer general and opened the way forward.

After listening to the scout's report, Luo Shixin was startled. The digits here are the junction of Hedong and Hebei. Why did the Turkic soldiers come here? Then he thought, isn't this the flesh God gave him! A burst of ecstasy flashed in his eyes, and he was impatient to ride a horse to find Princess Pingyang.

Compared to Luo Shixin's excitement, Princess Pingyang's eyes were filled with endless anger after hearing this news, and she said with her teeth: "General Luo, you are right, the Turks should not avoid it. Once you avoid it, you will be more and more flawed. You see my Tang Dynasty and my China without anyone."

Luo Shixin didn't think about it at the beginning, but now he thought about it carefully and suddenly realized that an inexplicable anger also emerged: the Turkic army invaded Yuanzhou, Bingzhou and Dingzhou. According to the terrain, this wave of Turkic soldiers could only come to Jie Li, leading the main force invading Bingzhou, and were divided into 150,000 main forces and plundered everywhere. Luo Shixin and his team are now at the junction of Hedong and Hebei, two hundred and fifty and sixty miles away from Bingzhou. A mere ten thousand Turkic troops dared to go deep into the hinterland of Li Tang for looting. How arrogant is this.

Luo Shixin said in a high voice: "They think that there is no one in China, so let them know how outrageous they are!" He turned over and dismounted, clasped his fists and asked for his orders: "Your Highness, please allow me to lead the troops in our headquarters to fight!"

Princess Pingyang thought she had heard it wrong and said in surprise: "General, what did you say?"

"Please allow me to lead my troops to fight!" Luo Shixin repeated carefully.

Princess Pingyang finally heard it clearly and shook her head and said, "I can understand the general's mood, but the battle is not like this. Maybe the general has never fought with the Turks and does not understand the power of the Turkic cavalry. The land here is a plain, with a flat horse, which is most suitable for cavalry combat. Even if your and my cavalry are combined, they are less than 800. In this terrain, they face tens of thousands of Turkic cavalry, and they will undoubtedly die."

According to normal circumstances, even if both sides with equal strength are defeated by infantry against cavalry, not to mention using more than 2,500 infantry-based soldiers to confront tens of thousands of Turkic cavalry on the flat ground where cavalry is suitable for combat. In the eyes of Princess Pingyang, who is familiar with military affairs, Luo Shixin's request for battle is not easy to seek death.

Luo Shixin was helpless and smiled bitterly: "Princess, don't worry, Princess, I, Luo Shixin, are only in my early twenties, and I haven't even looked for my wife. I don't have the idea of ​​seeking death. I also know that the power of the Turks is nothing more than the advantage on the horse's back. The soldiers of my Right Guard have been doing targeted training for a month. I am very sure that I can rely on my Modao team to defeat the Turks' ten thousand cavalrymen."

Princess Pingyang was silent for a while and shouted, "Get the map!" The maid next to her handed the map on her back to Princess Pingyang's hands.

Princess Pingyang looked at the map carefully and signaled Luo Shixin to come forward, pointing to where they are now and said, "Look, this is where we are..." The slender fingers drew a line on the map, pointing to Jingxing where they were about to pass, and said, "This is Jingxing. When Han Xin wisely defeated Zhao State, the two sides of the shore were surrounded by mountains and steep, which could lay ambush. Instead of fighting hard, it is better to deliberately disclose your whereabouts and lure them into it, and you can defeat them as long as they enter the vessel."

Luo Shixin looked at the map and looked at Princess Pingyang with a cautious look. He secretly admired her. It was not easy to figure out a set of ideas to defeat the enemy and a theoretically feasible idea in such a short time.

Theory, of course, is just a theory!

So Luo Shixin said bluntly: "Your Highness the Princess is a bet. Without knowing the temperament of the other general, your Highness will never be sure that the Turks will be tempted to enter the battlefield you set up."

Princess Pingyang also refused to deny it: "Yes, it's impossible to confirm. If the Turks don't take the trap, I can't do anything about it. We only have 5,000 cavalry, less than 800, and lack strength. I don't want to make fearless sacrifices."

"I have such concerns because you don't believe me!" Luo Shixin threw the words out casually, feeling that his head was too big. It was not that he could not understand Princess Pingyang, but he really didn't want to watch the Turks dominate the land that belonged to them, burning, killing, looting and ignoring it.

Princess Pingyang could not have imagined that Luo Shixin was so rebellious that he had a quarrel with her. The soldiers around him looked at each other, not knowing what they should say.

"Let's do it!" Luo Shixin thought for a while, but thought it was not a solution. He thought of it, but came up with an idea and said, "I have a way to lead the Turkic soldiers into the urn!"

Princess Pingyang walked down the pole and said, "What's the solution?"

"I will lead my troops to meet the enemy. If you show your defeat, retreat immediately and lead them into the ambush and hand over the battle to you!" Luo Shixin expressed his opinion seriously at a glance.

Princess Pingyang said with a dark face: "Is there a difference?"

"Yes!" Luo Shixin said without hesitation: "It's a perfect solution. I'll fight the Turks first. If you can't beat them, you will come. This is not very good!"

"You..." Princess Pingyang looked at Luo Shixin coldly, trying to see from his eyes and face what his mentality was. She found that there was a bit of helplessness on the handsome face, but more of a self-confidence, especially when he said that when he was facing the enemy, his expression and tone showed a sense of confidence that he would win.

Where did he, that unreasonable faith come from?

"I am saying that I am gambled... I am gambled, but I am betting on luck, and you are gambled on the lives of the soldiers!"

Luo Shixin defended: "There is no immortal in war. The princess should know more clearly than me. The minimum casualties in exchange for the greatest benefit is the ultimate principle of military strategy. So in this case, what's wrong with the small casualties of my right Guard in exchange for the major casualties of the Turkic soldiers. What's more, I won't lose. No matter if I lose, I can achieve my goal. Why don't the princess let me try it?"

"Okay!" Princess Pingyang gritted her teeth and agreed, "I hope you don't regret this decision."

Luo Shixin smiled happily and said, "I, Luo Shixin, never regret every decision I make..."

He rode his horse and whipped it, and came to the front. He raised his arms and shouted: "Brothers of the Right Guard, the Turkic miscellaneous people are here! Do you dare to follow me to crush them!"

"kill!"

Two thousand five hundred soldiers raised their weapons and shouted loudly. The excited shouting was like the echoes in the mountains, wave after wave, stirring every corner of the four fields. The buzzing sound waves seemed to overturn the sky, with blood and the strong will of soldiers as strong as steel. The soldiers of the Right Guard raised their weapons in their hands to crush the invading enemies with flesh and blood.
