Chapter 1398 Fake Surrender

At this moment, there are indeed a large number of their troops stationed in the mountains and forests of northern Vietnam, and they are also the most elite troops in the entire country. They have developed the ability to fight in the mountains and forests since they were young.

At the beginning, these people also understood that if we had a head-on confrontation with the Tang Dynasty army, we really had no chance of winning. Although the neighboring countries are not as powerful as Vietnam's military, if Vietnam wants to destroy them, it is estimated that more than a dozen Years of war have been fought.

But how long did the Tang army take? The actual combat time is not even a month, and the rest is all the time for material transfer. In other words, if the Tang army wants to attack Vietnam, it will only take two or three months at most, so they must It’s a surprise.

Fake surrender is what they think of as a surprise soldier.

If it weren't for Li Xiang's previous doubts and definitions, many people would believe this group of Vietnamese. However, Li Xiang had already said before leaving that the people of this country would not surrender so easily, and some things were not allowed. I believe that they have done many treacherous things, so when these people came to the Annan Protectorate, Changsun Ze began to doubt them.

Nanshanguan

General Wu Yuanhao looked at the letter in his hand. He couldn't believe his eyes. Why did the Prince of Tang Dynasty come to Nanshan Pass?

Has the news from our side been leaked? It's impossible. This pass is a purely military pass. No one can be stationed here except the soldiers here. There were originally a group of common people, but now these common people have been moved away.

"After passing the order, the left army and the right army will immediately move to other places. They cannot come back without my order. Only the original defenders will be retained."

Although he couldn't figure out what was going on, Wu Yuanhao also followed the Prime Minister's words. If the prince really wants to come, we can't let them see any clues.

Everyone in Vietnam went through this fake surrender matter, which was also discussed by many people. In the end, they also came to the conclusion that if they didn't do this, they would not even have the chance to bomb the surrender in the future. They were prepared this time. Lure the enemy to go deep and annihilate 20,000 to 30,000 people of the Tang army at once, which will cause the Datang army to bleed heavily and will not pose a threat to them for at least one or two years.

At that time, they would send a mission to negotiate with the Tang Dynasty. For example, when the Tang Dynasty attacked Tianzhu, they would guarantee that they would not cause any trouble to the rear of the Tang army, and they could even provide some supplies. It is estimated that the Tang army will not attack them at that time.

This is what is called fighting to promote peace.

They also understand that there are so many countries conquered by the Tang Dynasty. If you have no ability, how could the Tang Dynasty court look down upon you?

"Search the surrounding mountains and forests again. If you find any suspicious persons, kill them directly without bringing them back to me."

Wu Yuanhao still felt a little uneasy. How could the Prince of Tang Dynasty casually propose to come here? I must have heard some other rumors, so I have to clean up the surrounding area.

The men immediately began to search the area around Nanshanguan. In fact, they had searched the area almost 80 times. There was no one else here except their own people.

In addition to the original defenders, the other two armies were mobilized from the south, and they did not join up with the local defenders. They just ambush in the mountains and forests on both sides, but when these two armies began to move to other places When they retreated, the original defenders were immediately dumbfounded. They really didn't expect that there were so many troops around them, more than 30,000 people. In addition, the original defenders actually needed 40,000 people to complete such a level.

For a country like Datang, tens of thousands of troops are nothing at all, but for a country like Vietnam, a small checkpoint requires 40,000 people, which mobilizes almost 1/3 of the country's troops. Yes, although this level is important, there is no need to ambush so many people.

Just as the southern armies on both sides were retreating, a soldier nodded secretly. This person was the commander of the Tang army at Nanshan Pass.

He had also received an order from the Protectorate before, asking them to check if there was anything special happening around them, such as troop mobilization or the like. He also checked the entire military camp, but in the end there was no news. He didn't get it, and now that he saw the armies on both sides retreating, he was so frightened that his heart almost jumped out of his chest.

This guy quickly returned to his tent. Now most of the people in the tent had gone out to work. He described the situation here in short sentences, and then quickly came to the mountain behind the tent.

There are no ordinary people on the mountain anymore. If you want to send this information out, you must take an emergency passage.

"who?"

He was also found by people searching the forest.

Recently, the Vietnamese army has been very strict with their surroundings. They also knew that there would be spies around them, but they did not expect that the spies of Tang Dynasty were wearing Vietnamese military uniforms like them.

This Tang Dynasty man heard the people shouting around him, and he didn't panic in his heart. He had walked this road many times. There was a nest of pigeons hidden on the top of the mountain. He had to send the news there. Usually At that time, there were always people going around the military camp to receive news, but now there was no one in the village, so he had to take this road.

"Who else could it be? I don't even recognize the mother-in-law? Why are you pointing a knife at me? Are you going to chop me up?"

Hearing the familiar words, the searching army took a closer look. Isn't this Hou Er, who is responsible for spreading news in the military camp?

"What are you doing here? You're not searching the mountain today, are you?"

The young officer leading the team said with some disbelief. After all, they are usually lazy. If there is no mission, who would run to the mountains after eating enough?

"You think I'm willing to come up? It's not that idiot Tidagon who wants to take a guess from his brother-in-law. Have you seen that guy?"

Hou Er can be said to be very clear on how to deal with these patrols. He has been in the military camp for so many years. If he doesn't even have this ability, then don't hang around here. If he rushes all the way up If so, I would probably die here if the news was sent out. The most important thing is to alert the snake. (End of chapter)
