"Little Demon, Little Demon."

Yao Guang, the reconnaissance team of the Jinfeng Camp, had just climbed a hill to observe the terrain when he heard someone calling him behind him. He felt a little strange. After he was promoted to the team, no one called his nickname again. He put a canopy in his hand and looked down at the mountain. A team of 100 people was coming, and he waved to him was Zhao Ban, his old good friend. Zhao Ban's nickname was Xiaojiu, who was originally Dong Bazheng's subordinate, just like Yao Guang, but he was captured in the battle of Feng'an, so he stayed in the Tiande Right Army. Now, both of them have made contributions and become officers. Zhao Ban is the second whistle of the third whistle of the Jinfeng Camp at this time.

"Brother Jiu, you are here too."

Yao Guang greeted him and the two hugged each other. Although they were in the same camp, there were not many opportunities to meet. The Jinfeng Camp's residence was in Bingyan Valley, but the defense zone covered the three counties of Shannan, Yinshan and Ningyuan.

"According to the command of Yao Tongjun, cast nets everywhere." Zhao Ban patted Yao Guang's shoulder, looked him up and down, and said, "It's different for the people who have become kisses. They are much more stable. How about brothers, can you resist it? I have a friend who sells medicinal materials. Do you want to make some tiger bones for you to make wine?"

"Don't talk nonsense, I'm so bad." Yao Guang blushed, "I'll see you a few times a month, and I have nowhere to use your energy." Zhao Ban laughed loudly. A few times ago, after being matched by someone, Yao Guang got married with the only daughter of the owner of a silk shop in Fengzhou City. His little wife was gentle and sophisticated, and beautiful as a flower. Yao Guang got a treasure.

"Hi," Zhao Ban touched Yao Guang with his elbow, "Tell me a brief moment to me, can you still wear this armor?"

Yao Guang didn't rush to answer, and the two found a stone to sit side by side. "Tell me, what's the shame of this?" Zhao Ban asked again in his ear. Yao Guang sighed slightly and said irritably: "I can't make up my mind either. Her family's single generations have passed on her, and she has only such a daughter. The old man advised me to take off my armor and do business with him, but I really couldn't bear to leave. Brother Jiu, please help me with an idea. These days, I'm almost annoyed."

Zhao Ban curled his lips and pondered: "It is said that if you have such a good opportunity, you should not give up. But General Yang treated us well and left like this, and he really felt sorry for him. Besides, your brother's heart is higher than the sky, and he just stayed up like this, and you will live a restless life for the rest of your life." After Zhao Ban said this, Yao Guang's heart became even more annoyed.

"I can't get out of this circle..."

Yao Guang sighed in frustration, stood up, patted the soil on his butt: "Forget it, let's talk about it before you finish this battle. Besides, you may not be able to go back alive."

"Bah, I'm bah, bah, little demon, you say something despairing yourself, don't bring me with you." Zhao Ban was so scared that his face turned pale.

Yao Guang laughed loudly and hooked Zhao Ban's neck: "It's only because of the real man who died in the battlefield and was wrapped in a horse and a corpse."

A horse galloped over with a red flag on its back, obviously with an emergency military situation.

"The Khitan cavalry appeared in the southeast, with about 30 people." After the messenger said that, he urged the horses to go northwest. All the battalions of the Xining Army on the Datongchuan grassland had been broken into pieces. The scouts found the enemy situation and informed the nearest garrison, and the garrison decided whether to attack. This was a tactic specifically to curb the Khitan Rangers.

"Brother Ninth, how about giving this credit to me?" Yao Guang smiled at Zhao Ban.

"Brother, go and I'll watch the formation for you." Zhao Ban said generously.

Yao Guang turned on his horse, and the fifty soldiers of the reconnaissance team were divided into two teams and moved to the southeast. The visitor was the Khitan Rangers. The Khitan Rangers had strong combat capabilities in individual combat and played tactical roles such as reconnaissance, harassment, and sabotage. They were usually in groups of two, called "double flying", and in groups of three, called "three flying". In order to avoid stimulating the various units of Yelu Tien's Xining Army to pieces and enter the Datongchuan grassland, small groups of cavalry were moving around on the grassland with teams as the basic unit.

"Double Flying" and "Three Flyings" were greatly restricted. The Khitans split a 100-man team into three squads to deal with the small cavalry of the Xining Army. The Khitan Army's 105 squad was divided into three squads, 35 squads. The Xining Army's 34 squads were divided into three squads, and the two were equal in number.

This change immediately caused a lot of losses to the Xining Army. Judging from previous achievements, the Xining Army is not a match for the Khitans in terms of cavalry single-handed combat. The advantage of the Xining Army lies in the collective. After 100 people, the same number of Xining Army did not lose any disadvantage when fighting against the Khitans. After 500 people, the advantage of the Xining Army is very obvious. If more than 1,000 people, the combat power of the Xining Army will be twice to three times that of the Khitan Army.

For this reason, the Xining Army on Datong River used "sent" as the basic activity unit, with one hundred and thirteen people in one sentry, so that even if they encountered a 100-man team of Khitans, they could maintain a certain advantage.

The reconnaissance teams of each battalion are an exception. The reconnaissance teams are selected by thousands of elite troops. Because they often have to perform reconnaissance tasks alone, they have very strong combat capabilities. Even if they face off against the elite Khitan cavalry, they are not at all inferior. Therefore, the reconnaissance teams are divided into two parts, half of which stays in the central army to wait for the commander's order, and the other half is spread on the grassland to find opportunities to annihilate the enemy.

The two armies finally met on a flat grassland. When they were one hundred feet apart, they both appeared. This kind of showdown was very fair, and they were calm when they won and they were convinced when they lost.

The Khitans obviously underestimated the power of the reconnaissance team. When they found that the number of opponents was only twenty-five, everyone's hearts were extremely inflated. Their commander was named Tu Pin Budalao, who was the little prince of Tu Pin Bu. After he simply issued the combat order, he came first to kill him.

Arrows fly like locusts.

People on both sides kept falling down, and suddenly the arrogant heart suddenly tightened. He found that the Tang army opposite was not as easy as he imagined. In this head-on duel, the Khitans' aura was completely suppressed. When they were thirty feet apart, the knights on both sides put away their bows and arrows and pulled out their carry-on weapons. The Khitans used scimitars, maces, and kidnaps, and the Tang army used spears and Tang swords. In this fair duel, the Khitans were at a disadvantage again.

Tu Pin Budalao was shot by Yao Guang and his right leg broke. Two Khitans tried to rescue him, but the team deputy Zhang Bingkun picked up a crossbow and shot one by one. Zhang Bingkun himself was beaten with a mace on the Khitans, injured on his right shoulder, and the knife was not stable. After the battle, only two wounded soldiers escaped. Six people were captured, including Tu Pin Budalao, the little prince Tu Pin Budalao. The reconnaissance team injured 19 people and killed nineteen people.

Zhang Bingkun understood Khitan language, and asked about Tu Pin Budalao's identity after a few words of intimidation, so he laughed and said, "We have made great contributions now. This is the little prince of Tu Pin Bu. With him, we can force Tu Pin Bu to withdraw from his troops."

Yao Guang laughed and said, "It is not enough to just let them retreat. We must use His Highness the Little Prince to set up a bureau for Yelu Tila to get in." Yao Guang took down a token from Tu Pindalao and took a surrendered soldier who knew Tang language to Tu Pinbubububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububububu

Zhang Bingkun was shocked and said, "You are alone and I can't let you go." Yao Guang said, "Don't worry, my life is not as valuable as the little prince's life. With him in our hands, I dare not take me if I don't take it." Zhang Bingkun took the TuPin Buda back and reported to the commander Yao Meng. Yao Guang went to TuPin Bububu camp alone.

The Tu Pinbu is one of the eight Khitan tribes. The cavalry of this unit is fierce and good at fighting, known as the "Iron Army". The Yaonian clan and Yelu clan in power in the Khitan fought and pulled the Tu Pinbu and used both to prevent trouble. In order to prevent Datongchuan from falling into the hands of the Tang army, Yelu Tila cut off his retreat to retreat northward. As soon as he took over the military power, he urgently ordered the Tu Pinbu Xiao to lead two thousand cavalry to go north overnight to take over the defense of Datongchuan.

Tu Pin Buxiao led his troops northward and encountered countless small groups of Tang troops blocking and harassment. Although the casualties were not large, the army became very tired and his morale was extremely low. Originally, the mission was completed and he could take the opportunity to rest, but Yelu Tiela ordered "immediately clear the remnants of the Tang army on the grassland."

The anger in the heart of the throne was already at its peak. The Tang army on the Datongchuan grassland was definitely not a "remnant". They were the main force of the Tang army after being broken into pieces. Yelu Tiela ignored the facts and forced himself to clear himself within three days. If the "remnants" were not eliminated within three days, the military law would be dealt with. To put it bluntly, this is to find a reason to repair himself.

The small Tang army on the grassland came and went without a trace. The army was dispatched to all its nests and could not find the enemy. They spent their energy to march on the grassland. The small group was dispatched and was often taken advantage of by the enemy, and they did not return. Yao Guang's arrival made Tu Pin Buxiao see a glimmer of hope. When Yao Guang took out the token of Tu Pin Buda to prove that his youngest son had fallen into the hands of Tang army, Tu Pin Buxiao immediately agreed to cooperate with the Tang army. He was determined to teach Yelu Tiela a lesson.

However, he thought Yao Guang's grade was too low and was not equal to his territorial status. He insisted that Yao Meng, the commander of the Jinfeng Camp, came to negotiate. Yao Guang wrote a letter and sent someone to present Yao Meng in person. The letter was sent for three days and three nights, but no response was seen. During these three days, hundreds of people died in the ambush of the Tang army. Zhu Biao Xiao was furious and ordered to raise a large pot, strip Yao Guang's clothes and throw it into the pot, and firewood was placed around him.

Yao Guang used the big pot as a bathtub, humming a small song while scrubbing the bath. Tu Pin Buxiao was both angry and funny. He strode to the big pot and said sarcastically: "You will soon turn into broth. I really can't understand what you have to be happy about." Yao Guang laughed and said, "You will lose your only son soon, and I don't know what you are happy about." Tu Pin Buxiao's face changed, and he hurriedly ordered the soldiers to remove the firewood and pour two buckets of cold water into the pot.
