第七章 劲草 （二）

“遵命！”韩德馨快步走到舆图旁，拿起一根事先剥了皮的木棍儿，缓缓指点，“属下过了滱水河之后，走得是三道梁、高家集，饮马屯，准备从这里先拿下陶家庄，然后占领李家寨侧后的山梁，居高临下……”
毕竟是将门之后，得到过韩家长辈们的几分真传，三言两语，他就把自己当初的行军路线，呈现在了顶头上司和一众同僚的面前。
“为什么不走东侧，东侧的道路明显比西北侧平坦？”舆图旁，立刻有人低声质问。
“去之前，韩某曾经接到地方上的线报。李家寨至少曾经两次在寨子东侧的山谷里设伏，两次都全歼了来犯之敌。”对于跟自己平级的将校，韩德馨却没有什么“客气”话可讲，想都不想，就给出了一个硬梆梆的答案。
“嗯！”对方被噎得颇为难受，却无法再质疑他的选择。喘息了数下，又带着几分恼怒追问，“既然如此，几为何非要去打那李家寨？从滱水到李家寨之间，分明还与七八处堡寨可以讨伐！”
“若是只为了图些粮草铜钱，当然会捡容易的打！谁还不知道软柿子好吃？可此番出兵，大将军分明曾经说过，要打掉各地汉人的士气。让他们不敢再生任何反抗之心！”不待韩德馨回应，耶律赤犬扑上前，恶狠狠朝发问者叫嚷。
打了败仗，居然还有脸如此嚣张？！这下，兄弟两个可是有点儿犯了众怒。周围的将佐们纷纷竖起眉头，七嘴八舌地嘲讽道：“那耶律小将军，可是如愿把人家的士气给打掉了？”
“嗯，吃硬柿子才有种，问题是，你得有相当的牙口！”
“呵呵，我等的确光知道捞些钱粮。但比起丢光了兵马辎重，却腆着脸独自逃命，总还是稳当些吧？”
“原本不懂什么叫做送货上门，现在好像懂了一点。就是不知道送货之人跟对方，到底是什么关系，居然……”
“行了，都少说几句，军中没人买哑巴！”军主萧拔剌听大伙越说越不像话，腾地站了起来，“我等都是武将，不要学汉国文官们那些坏毛病。他们俩打了败仗，本官自然会上报南枢密院和征南大将军行辕，由大将军和南院枢密使来按律给与处罚。但眼下要紧的不是指责他们两个用兵的失误之处，而是如何才能把这口气讨还回来！”
“是，我等知错了，请军主责罚！”众将佐被吓了一大跳，齐齐拱手请罪。
“算了，下不为例！”萧拔剌看了大伙一眼，有气无力地摆手。
真的要按律处罚，他现在就该把耶律赤犬和韩德馨两个家伙给推出去斩首示众。而上报给新任大将军萧兀烈和南院枢密使韩匡嗣，结果必然是板子高高举起轻轻落下。对此，在场众将，估计心里也都是门清。所以，既然连丧师辱国之罪都不予追究，他这个军主，又有什么脸面去计较大伙的几声喧哗？
“当日，末将走到了差不多这个位置……”韩德馨察言观色，抢在萧拔剌提醒自己之前，继续低声补充。无论是说话的神态和语气，都比先前低调了许多，“距离陶家庄大概还有十五六里，遭到了对方的重兵伏击。末将和耶律将军本该死战殉国，然念及冰天雪地，消息很难及时传回，才不得不忍辱偷生，以图有朝一日能让仇人血债血偿！”
“他奶奶的，本事全长在了嘴巴上，逃命还逃出道理来了！”众将佐侧着眼睛冷笑，对韩德馨的狡辩不屑一顾。
“如果能顺利占领李家寨后山，你预计得多少人马，才能将寨子一举攻破？”萧拔剌装作没看到大伙的表情，继续沉声追问。
“末将不敢！”韩德馨吃一次亏，学一次乖。非常谦虚地拱手施礼，“末将估计，李家寨里边所藏兵马，应该不低于两千。若是算上寨子里可以临时调用的老弱，则还要再多出一倍。所以，所以末将不敢估测我军出兵多少，才有必胜的把握！”
“哼！”“胆小鬼！”“孬种！”“懦夫！”众将佐听了，顿时一个个把嘴角撇得更高，心中对韩氏兄弟，也愈发地瞧之不起。
他们这支兵马，由五个契丹营头和五个幽州军营头组成。其中无论契丹营还是幽州营，都不是满编。在被耶律赤犬和韩德馨两兄弟折损掉了两个营头之后，剩下的总人马数量，也就是三千上下。其中还有一小半儿为辅兵和杂兵。
如果李家寨的守军果真像韩德馨说得那样高达四千之巨，那就根本不用商量，只有全军扑上，才有复仇的可能。而拿这么庞大的一支兵马去对付一个小小的巡检司，即便打赢了，也未必如何光彩。万一受天气和地形的影响铩羽而归，大家伙可就全都被姓韩的给拐到阴沟里头了，回去后谁都落不到好果子吃！
“末将以为，兵贵精不贵多，欲踏平李家寨，三个营的弟兄足够！”正在众人犹豫不决之际，忽然在佛堂的门口处，传来一个洪亮的声音。
大伙吃了一惊，齐齐扭头。恰看见都指挥使马延煦那傲然的面孔。（注2）
注1：祖州，今内蒙古巴林左旗。辽国早期上层贵族纷争不断，失败者大多数都会被送到祖州软禁。如耶律阿保机的皇后术律平，阿保机之子耶律李胡，大惕隐耶律留哥，都曾经被软禁于此。
注2：马延煦，辽国马氏一族的翘楚。其父马胤卿为后晋刺史，被耶律德光俘虏。耶律德光怜其才而赦免了他。从此马氏一族成为了了契丹人的千里马，在几次南下战争中都不遗余力。
