My Backyard is the Tang Dynasty

   "This old man, please take us there." In the early Tang Dynasty, the word "father-in-law" was generally used to address the elderly, and Li Yin shouted because of this.

  The old man nodded, but his expression was a little hesitant, as if he had something to say, Li Yin immediately understood, and said to Qin Huaiyu: "Take ten guan coins and give it to this father-in-law."

  The ten guan coins were exactly the amount of reward offered by Li Yin. Qin Huaiyu trotted back to the camp after hearing the words, and came over with ten guan orange copper coins.

  The old man seemed relieved to see these copper coins, and said to Li Yin, "Thank you, Your Highness."

   "This is what you deserve." Li Yin laughed.

  Put the ten copper coins in the medicine basket and cover them with herbs. The old man struggled to carry it on his back, and said: "Your Highness, please come with me." After finishing speaking, the old man walked towards the east gate.

  Li Yin thought it would take a lot of time to go, so he asked Qin Huaiyu to call for more than 30 riders, and asked two soldiers to take the old man and the child, and they followed behind.

According to the old man\'s words, the group of people left the east gate of Songzhou City and walked southward for about ten miles and stopped. You can go up the mountain."

  Li Yan looked in the direction the old man pointed. In front of him was an almost straight rock wall with a parallel **** that sloped down from top to bottom, like a staircase clinging to the wall.

  Qin Huaiyu got off his horse and led the soldiers over first. When Li Yin walked in front of him, Qin Huaiyu frowned. Said: "It\'s too dangerous. This rock wall is at least fifty meters high. If you fall, you will die."

   Li Yan deeply agrees. This natural passage is not only smooth, but also very narrow, only 30 centimeters wide. Moreover, the angle between the stone **** and the ground is almost 70 degrees, and most people dare not try to climb up. "It is narrow, steep and slippery." Li Yin concluded.

  Hearing the discussion between the two, the old man was a little nervous, and said: "Your Highness, you can go up this trail. Every time I go up the mountain to collect herbs, I go up this trail. It must be no problem. I will climb up here and show Your Highness."

The old man\'s words made Li Min\'s brain flash. The old man must have cultivated a set of mountain climbing skills after going to the mountains for many years to collect medicine. For him, going up the mountain is like walking on flat ground, but it is very difficult for these soldiers. The old man pulled a rope up. Tie a few ropes to the trees on the mountain, and find a place below along the **** to fix them, so that soldiers can go up the ropes without fear of falling.

  Thinking like this, Li Yin spoke out his thoughts, Qin Huaiyu nodded in agreement, and sent the soldiers back to the barracks to get the ropes. The old man was also relieved, lest these wolf-like soldiers would take him for a lie.

  The soldiers came back soon, and brought seven or eight long and thick hemp ropes. According to Li Yin\'s method, the old man climbed to the top of the mountain with the hemp rope, then threw the hemp rope on an old tree on the edge of the cliff, and then dropped other hemp ropes on different trees. It fixed the other end on a boulder at the foot of the mountain. This time, it is finally a way to change the sky.

  The old man happily left after completing his mission with ten copper coins on his back, while Li Yin and Qin Huaiyu climbed to the top of the mountain along the rope.

  After reaching the top of the mountain, Li Yan finally understood what high mountains and dense forests are. Even at noon, the mountains and forests are gloomy, and there is a smell of decaying plants everywhere.

Thirty soldiers took out the crossbows, pulled the strings and put the arrows on the crossbows. This kind of crossbows is most suitable for close encounters. Even the special forces now often use them when performing tasks. It is absolutely silent. Li Yin and Qin Huaiyu were also holding a crossbow alone, and they were going to find out where the Tuyuhun siege equipment was made.

Along the path where the old man went up the mountain to collect herbs, more than 30 people groped forward and walked northward. Li Min was always cautious all the way, as if walking on thin ice, because the group of them not only had to beware of the uneven mountain road under their feet, but also the There are poisonous snakes that come out of the grass from time to time, and on this mountain there are more monkeys jumping around in the mountains and forests, and this kind of monkey is the golden monkey that is very cherished now.

After walking more than ten miles in a row, both Li Yin and Qin Huaiyu were out of breath. This mountain road is different from flat land, and they have to climb up and down from time to time. It is very difficult to walk. "Ten minutes of rest." Li Yin saw that the soldiers were a little tired , Glancing at his watch, he said.

After receiving the order, the soldiers all leaned against the tree and sat down, picked up the water bag and drank water. Qin Huaiyu handed a water bag to Li Min, "It\'s almost time to arrive. When we came, we just went south. It\'s about ten miles away."

   "We walked obliquely. Of course, the road is longer, but at most a few miles away, we can see the camp of Tuyuhun." Li Yin said with a sip of water.

As soon as he finished speaking, a soldier suddenly said "Ouch". It turned out that a golden monkey threw down a green fruit and hit his head impartially. Because of the heat, the soldier took off his helmet. It was not light, he gritted his teeth in pain, and the soldiers around him burst into laughter.

There were about thirty monkeys in this group, and they had followed Li Yin and his party for two or three miles, and they had been persevering, perhaps because they were attracted by the shining silver armor on the soldiers, but they refused to leave. Now, seeing Li Yin and his group rest, Revealed the true nature of the monkey.

  Li Yan glanced at the rotten fruit, and suddenly felt a little familiar, it was actually a kiwi.

The soldier was very annoyed holding the place where he was smashed. He picked up the crossbow and was about to kill the grinning golden monkey. Li Yin stopped immediately. Animals like monkeys hold grudges, and now they will arrive at the camp of Tuyuhun. , being entangled by these monkeys is no fun.

   "It\'s enough to drive them away with stones." Li Yin said to the soldiers.

  When the soldiers heard Li Yin\'s order, they picked up stones on the ground and threw them at the monkeys on the tree. The monkeys immediately fled here screaming.

After resting for a while, the group continued to move forward. As Li Yin expected, they saw the Tuyuhun camp from the top of the mountain after a while. On the 100-meter-high mountain, the entire Tuyuhun camp was in Li Yin\'s field of vision. In short, at this time, he picked up the binoculars to observe, and soon found Tuyuhun soldiers at the foot of the mountain who were making siege weapons.

  Li Yin handed the binoculars to Qin Huaiyu and pointed him in the direction. His task this time was to find the location of the Tuyuhun siege equipment, and now he has finally completed it.

After confirming the direction of Tuyuhun\'s siege equipment, Qin Huaiyu led people down the mountain to observe the specific location nearby, and at the same time set up marks along the road in case he brought the army back tomorrow, while Li Yin stayed on the mountain to be more specific. After recording the distribution of the Tuyuhun army and completing their respective tasks, the group returned to the Songzhou camp in the evening.

Knowing that Li Yin went to investigate the Tuyuhun camp in person, everyone sweated for Li Yin, "Your Highness, you are too reckless to do this, just let Qin Huaiyu go here, in case you make a mistake, this What should Chengdu Mansion do?" Niu Jinda couldn\'t help but said.

Li Yin knew that there was no need for him to follow, but he did this to establish his own image in the army. Although he had always instilled in the army the idea that the army should be loyal to the palace, and he himself took the post of general, but the soldiers at the grassroots level stayed behind. A good reputation is also necessary.

  Li Yin said that they could only take it with a laugh, and said that they would pay attention to this in the future, and then he and several people began to discuss the next battle.

"Tomorrow we will set up an infantry phalanx at the gate of the city, pretending to be in a decisive battle with Tuyuhun, then Murong Fuyun will definitely take advantage of the large number of troops and the advantages of cavalry to attack the infantry phalanx, and then use the trenches Some of the Tuyuhun soldiers could be wiped out. In the evening, the infantry archers went up the mountain from the trail and attacked the Tuyuhun camp in the dark. After seeing the signal, General Niu led 3,000 cavalry to attack the Tuyuhun camp from the main gate. .” After discussing with Li Yin, Li Yin made a final decision.

Several people learned the specific situation of the Tuyuhun camp from Li Yinkou. In the Tuyuhun camp, the soldiers were stationed in the front, while the Tuyuhun people were in the rear. There was an obvious gap between them, which was convenient for the Songzhou army to focus on Attack, and the place near the forest on the north side of the camp is the siege equipment being built.

Generally speaking, Tuyuhun\'s camps are distributed in a rectangular shape in a ravine about 1,500 meters wide. Originally, Li Min planned to take the delay method and burn the siege weapons first, but Qin Huaiyu went down to explore the road and found that on this side of the mountain The dense forest is very suitable for the infantry to hide, and the **** of the mountain is not steep, which is very suitable for ambush soldiers and surprise attacks. In response to the situation, after discussing with the generals, Li Yin decided to fight Tuyuhun tomorrow.

   "Zhu Youzhi, Qin Huaiyu, Xue Rengui, tomorrow you will lead musketeers, infantry, and archers to ambush on the south side of the Tuyuhun camp on the small path, and attack on time at twelve o\'clock at night." Li Yin began to assign tasks.

"Yes, Your Highness!" Zhu Youzhi, Qin Huaiyu, and Xue Rengui respectively took the tiger-shaped soldier talismans and replied in response. They also adopted the soldier talisman system for Li Yin, the army of the Chengdu Mansion. In the education of soldiers, a system was also instilled in soldiers.

  Li Yan handed another soldier talisman to Niu Jinda, "General Niu, the task of chasing down the remnants of Tuyuhun is entrusted to you."

   "Your Highness, don\'t worry!" Niu Jinda said excitedly. He was one of those people whose hands would itch if he didn\'t fight for a day, and now there was finally a war.

  Assigned the task, Li Yin raised his wrist and said, "Check the time."

  When Zhu Youzhi, Qin Huaiyu, and Xue Rengui were in Yizhou, Li Yin gave them each a watch, and now they all raised their wrists to check it together, which made Niu Jinda dumbfounded again.
