I'm a marquis in Datang

Du Qi narrowed his eyes and said, "The Tubo cavalry came suddenly, and they came in the direction of Dongshan. It can even be inferred that they are heading towards us."

Guo Xiaozheng said: "Could it be that they are coming towards us."

"Most likely!"

Du Qi said in a deep voice: "The current situation in the northwest, because of the appearance of this king, the situation that was originally a mess, has gradually become clear, and everything is on the right track. For the Tubo people, this is not a good thing, because for the They are more of a threat. So it is normal for Tubo to send cavalry. Let’s go back to the camp immediately and get ready for the battle.”

Guo Xiaozheng carefully looked at the Tubo cavalry team again, and said: "Your Highness, the Tubo cavalry looks like at least two thousand fine cavalry, quite a number!"

Once the two thousand fine riders set up their stance to attack, the offensive will be extremely strong.

Not easy to deal with.

After all, the total number of Du Qi's soldiers, including the kitchen and other auxiliary soldiers, does not exceed 4000 now.Moreover, the real cavalry formed under Du Qi's command was only one thousand fine cavalry.

When encountering more than [-] Tubo elite cavalry, if they confront each other head-on, even if Moledo is strong, he will be alone and unable to truly reverse the situation.

So you have to prepare in advance.

Du Qi and his party went down the mountain quickly. Even though the road up the mountain was rough, it was easy to go down the mountain.So in a very short period of time, a group of people quickly descended the mountain, rode Juechen, and quickly headed towards the barracks.

As soon as he returned to the barracks, Du Qi immediately ordered the drums to be on guard.Xiao Yuanqi and Ma Yuan rushed over upon hearing the sound, looked at Du Qi and said, "Your Highness, what happened?"

Du Qi said as he walked: "When Mr. Guo and I went to climb Dongshan, we found a group of Tubo cavalry in the southwest of Dongshan, that is, behind us. There were at least 2000 people, and they were attacking in our direction. Come. This team is likely to fight us, so we must prepare early."

Ma Yuan said in a deep voice: "Your Highness, two thousand elite cavalry are coming. Although we have set up refusal horses in our camp, the layout of the camp is not complicated. In this situation, pure defense is not easy."

Xiao Yuanqi said: "I don't have much time, I must make arrangements quickly."

While talking, several people returned to the camp.

Du Qi said in a deep voice: "With the current situation, there is no time to think about it. I said, listen."

"Yes!"

Everyone responded in unison.

Du Qi said in a deep voice: "Xiao Yuanqi!"

"exist!"

Xiao Yuanqi immediately stood up and spoke.

Du Qi ordered: "There are not many bushes on the left and right sides of our camp. You lead all the cavalry in the army and divide them into two teams. One left and one right each have 500 people. And move. The cavalry is an ambush, and even more so, it is a surprise soldier to turn the situation around in this battle, and it is under your full command."

"Yes!"

Xiao Yuanqi answered immediately.

Du Qidao: "Of course, this king will decide a way. Once there is an emergency in the barracks, I will beat the drums. Once the king orders the drums to be played, even if the opportunity to fight is not available, you must lead the army to fight."

Xiao Yuanqi said: "The humble job understands!"

Du Qi turned his gaze, landed on Ma Yuan again, and ordered: "Ma Yuan, you have more things to do. Right now, there are mainly four things."

"First, outside the camp, quickly spread barbed wire to prevent the cavalry from rushing forward.

Raid.In addition to the barbed wire, horse refusal must also be arranged as the second line of defense to prevent the cavalry from rushing into the camp. "

"Second, let the soldiers quickly dig scattered deep pits and spread weeds so that they can stop the cavalrymen who are killing them. It is definitely impossible to dig trenches right now. But digging deep pits to deal with horses is possible. of."

"Third, mobilize the archers and stand by in the camp. Once the archers need to shoot, they can immediately meet them."

"Fourth, arrange a team of spearmen to form a spear formation. Once the Tubo cavalry breaks through our defense line, then the spearmen are needed to stop the cavalry's attack."

Du Qi said in a deep voice: "As for the rest of the soldiers, they are on standby at any time."

Ma Yuan said: "I understand the humble job."

Du Qi looked at Guo Xiaozheng, Yu Deshui and the others again, and ordered: "There are still some omissions in the military camp that need to be checked and filled. You all think about it, and make arrangements as soon as possible during this period."

"Yes!"

Guo Xiaozheng and Yu Deshui responded immediately.

For them, the sudden attack of the Tubo people broke the original plan.Moreover, the Tubo cavalry are extremely fierce, not easy to deal with.

Everyone left and went to work on their own.

Each has its own thing to do.

Du Qi sat in the tent, thinking carefully about how to deal with this battle.There is no such thing as fear of the Tubo cavalry.But in this battle, Du Qi didn't want to pay a big price, but wanted to win at a very small price.

About a quarter of an hour later, Guo Xiaozheng and Yu Deshui arrived, and they had already arranged everything.

Immediately afterwards, Ma Yuan also came back.

Ma Yuan clasped his fists and said: "Your Highness, everything has been arranged properly. General Xiao Yuanqi also sent someone to send back the news that all the people under his leadership have already taken their positions, waiting for the Tubo cavalry to kill them."

Du Qi's eyes were sharp, and he said in a deep voice: "Very well, this time, let's have a good meeting with the Tubo cavalry."

After a pause, Du Qi said: "If I remember correctly, when we inquired about the news of Yiwu City before, we found a piece of news about Tubo and Yiwu City. The news we inquired at that time was that Tubo cavalry often invaded Yiwu City, looting property from Yiwu City. However, Yiwu City is not weak, and the two sides have fought fiercely several times."

Guo Xiaozheng said: "What Your Highness said is very true."

After a pause, Guo Xiaozheng said: "Your Highness means that these Tubo cavalry are actually not coming for us, but for Yiwu City."

Du Qi thought for a while and said: "I can infer that the first target of this group of Tubo cavalry is us. The second is Yiwu City. After taking us,

The Tubo cavalry will go to Yiwu City and loot it by the way. "

Guo Xiaozheng nodded and said: "His Highness's analysis is very pertinent, but the Tubo cavalry's attack on Yiwu City should be meaningless to us. The most important thing right now is to block and take down this group of Tubo cavalry."

Du Qi smiled and said: "It is actually useful, because Tubo attacked Yiwu City. If we win this time, we can use this to win over the people of Yiwu City, so that the people of Yiwu City will not resist us."

Guo Xiaozheng raised his brows when he heard this, and said: "Your Highness is thoughtful, and a lowly position can't match it."

Du Qi didn't care about Guo Xiaozheng's praise, and said seriously: "From this level, we must win this battle. So this battle must be won beautifully."

"Yes!"

Guo Xiaozheng's eyes were full of fighting spirit.

This battle, no matter what the reason, must be won.
