The 5,600 cavalry of Su Dingfang were like the 5,600 wolves on the grassland, and they went deep into the northern part of the desert along the way Li Ke went to the Turks.

Just as Liu Rengui said, Su Dingfang could affirm the miracle of Li Ke defeating 1,500 people with 800.

Therefore, he felt that Li Ke was no longer on this path.

Looking for him on this path will definitely not be found.

To find him, he must look westward.

Because there is the Turkic city of Dali in the east, it is difficult to escape the Turkic people.

Therefore, he hopes that Liu Rengui can live up to expectations.

However, he understood more clearly that since the Turkic Left King could do such a thing, he would definitely not be willing to fail so easily.

It is impossible to intercept and kill once, but it will send cavalry out twice or three times.

Since you understand their actions, you must take corresponding measures.

So, he made such an arrangement with Liu Rengui, asking him to look for Li Ke westward. All he could do was to annihilate the cavalry sent out to intercept Li Ke on this road, and win the time for Li Ke to return to Tang.

The purpose was clear. When Su Dingfang entered the grasslands in the northern desert, he cast a large net and sent 600 cavalry scouts to widen the scope of the reconnaissance.

At the same time, they were ordered to report the enemy situation to him every half hour, so that he could not grasp the opponent's actions in time.

He had experience in fighting with the Turks and understood that in addition to their cavalry, there was another factor that could not be ignored, that is, their scouts had very outstanding reconnaissance intelligence capabilities on the grassland, and their methods were very experienced, and the information reported was very timely and accurate.

Therefore, he will not make fatal mistakes made by others on this issue.

On the first day, he left the Tang Dynasty and entered the grasslands in the northern desert, but no enemies were found. Su Dingfang ordered the army to rest on the spot in the evening.

The next day, I continued to go deep into the grassland, but still no trace of the enemy tracking or intercepting Li Ke's death was found.

Su Dingfang ordered the soldiers to set up camp by a river and rest for a night.

On the third day, no trace of the enemy was found, and many soldiers were suspicious of Su Dingfang's march arrangements.

Their mission is to find and rescue His Highness the King of Han, not to come to the grassland for vacation.

They were the new army of the Tang Dynasty, the soldiers who carried the expectations of tens of thousands of people in the Tang Dynasty, and were not for leisure and fun on the grassland.

However, Su Dingfang ignored the negative situation that occurred in the army. He neither explained nor comforted him. He also issued an order to set up camp at night as usual.

Soldiers take obeying orders as their duty.

Therefore, although the soldiers complained, they only nagged for a few words and did nothing out of the ordinary.

In the evening, when the army had dinner, Su Dingfang forced the soldiers to rest and sent out twice as many night patrol teams than usual.

All the soldiers were used to Su Dingfang's march arrangements during the two-day marching, so they did not feel surprised that he issued a forced rest order.

The soldiers slept as usual and slept relatively soundly.

The grassland at night seems particularly cold, but the sky is clear and the stars are everywhere, adding affinity to the empty grassland in Mobei.

At the hour of Hai, Su Dingfang finally made a move. He shouted outside the tent, "Come."

"General, what's the matter?"

The guard walked into the tent and bowed and replied.

"Order the soldiers to gather and get on horseback to prepare for battle."

Su Dingfang issued an order in a firm tone.

"promise."

The personal guard hesitated for a moment, bowed and took the order and walked out of the tent.

Then, I heard the crowds of people outside the tent, the neighing of war horses, and the noises were endless.

Su Dingfang shook his head in the tent, "After all, it's a new army. It's not enough training. A sudden gathering made such a big noise. Such an army is difficult to compete with the agile and agile Turks."

The soldiers gathered outside the tent seemed a little confused because there was no notice in advance, and the soldiers slept more solidly.

So, suddenly, the orders of preparing for battle puzzled them and made them panic.

After the five thousand and six hundred cavalry gathered, they sat neatly on the horse's back, and when they stood in front of Su Ding's side, they had been spending a stick of incense.

"Are you pigs or a bunch of wastes?"

Su Dingfang cursed, "Walking deep into the grasslands of the northern desert, do you not even have the minimum vigilance on the Turkic territory?

Let’s see how much time it took for you to finish the assembly?

When a stick of incense.

Then I will tell you that in the time of a incense stick, the Turkic cavalry can reach your camp ten miles away, and cut off your heads and hang them on their waists.

Negligence on the enemy's territory is irresponsible for your own life. Do you understand?

Do you know?

So, I said you are just a group of pigs and a group of waste."

Su Dingfang's voice was like a scoundrel, knocking on the hearts of the 5,600 cavalrymen riding on horses.

They lowered their heads in shame and dared not look at Su Dingfang's face that he could not see too clearly at night.

"If we were attacking each other and you formed such a large formation when you gathered, the enemy would be so stupid that they handed you their heads to you, and would you cut them down?

If we are doing a sudden attack, can you successfully complete the task at the speed of your assembly?"

Su Dingfang became more and more angry the more he spoke, "So you are a group of pigs and a group of waste."

It is a group of garbage that throws away the honor of the Tang soldiers. You are not worthy of being called the new army of the Tang Dynasty, nor are you worthy of being called the soldiers who can defend their country."

All the soldiers were scolded by Su Dingfang and their faces were red, and they wanted to see a crack in the ground.

They feel that they are indeed worthy of the title of the Tang New Army and the title of the Tang soldier.

During training in Xishan Camp, their treatment was the best among the entire Tang Dynasty guards.

They wear the best armor, ride the best war horses, and use the best weapons.

They feel that they are the well-deserved Iron Army of the Tang Dynasty and the guardian saint of the future of the Tang Dynasty.

So, they have some pride and some complacent.

However, now that they were scolded by Su Dingfang, they finally realized their shortcomings.

They are ashamed, they blame themselves.

This is what Su Dingfang wanted. When he saw the cavalry who looked like he was the best in the world and had a proud and complacent look on his face, his shameful face turned slightly red, his purpose was achieved.

He was silent for a moment, took a deep breath, and shouted loudly, "I know that you are all bloody soldiers and want to fight for the Tang Dynasty.

I understand better that as long as you want, you can do it, I believe you."

"Swish."

All the cavalry raised their proud heads, their faces full of confidence, and their eyes showed a firm look.

"So, tonight is fighting for your honor, don't you want to prove that you are soldiers?

Don’t you want to prove that you are the new army of the Tang Dynasty?

Then use the heads of the enemies in the Tang Dynasty to show your determination.

Just defend your dignity with the blood of the enemy!”

"The Tang Dynasty is mighty, the new army is mighty!"

Suddenly, a captain standing in front shouted.

"The Tang Dynasty is mighty, the new army is mighty!"

More than 5,000 people shouted at the same time, with a rainbow of momentum and a huge sound. Su Dingfang, who was riding on the war horse, felt his ears hurt by the majestic sound.

"I predict that the enemy will attack the camp tonight.

So, order!”

As soon as Su Dingfang finished speaking, all the cavalrymen drew out their swords at the same time.

This is a suggestion from Li Ke to Su Dingfang Xinjun. In Li Ke's words, it is to take an oath for the order.

"The army immediately retreated ten miles westward and then waited for the enemy's attack."

At the same time, he ordered a captain in front of him, "At the same time, the scouts will be narrowed down the scope of the inspection so as not to alarm the snake."

"promise."

The captain agreed and disappeared into the darkness of the night.

"Set off."

Su Dingfang shouted again, and then the army moved westward for ten miles under his command. Then the soldiers waited for the Turks in the dark night, on the night of howling north wind, and in passion and blood.

Time passed by minute by minute, and the climate in the middle of the night became colder and colder.

But each cavalry showed the strength of their elite Tang Dynasty, sitting upright on the horse like a stone statue, waiting for the command of the commander.

At this time, the north wind was howling, and the weather was very cold, but they were not cold, their bodies were cold, and their hearts were not cold.
