Chapter 404
Asuna Sheer decided to fight Hou Hu desperately, so he did not care about Hou Hu's long sword. He swung the scimitar in his right hand and slashed towards Hou Hu's neck.
Hou Hu's long sword is equivalent to Ashin's scimitar sword. If Ashin's arm is added, the scimitar will cut off Hou Hu's head before the long sword pierces his throat.
It was precisely because Ashina Sheer took advantage of this that he would have fought with Hou Hu.
However, Hou Hu had long known what Ashinasheer was thinking. When Ashinasheer was slashing at him, the war horse under him suddenly jumped and accelerated. Hou Hu used the instant leap of the war horse under him to pierce Asunasheer's throat with the long knife in his hand. At this time, Ashinasheer's scimitar was only one foot away from his neck.
"Dingdang--" The scimitar fell on the frozen hard snow, with a crisp and loud voice.
Without thinking, Hou Hu stepped forward and held Ashinasheer's body with one hand, and tugged the long knife in his throat.
With a "puff--" sound, blood squirted his face.
But he did not stop, but grabbed the head of Asuna Sheer who was about to fall off the horse with his left hand, and slashed it hard with a long knife. Asuna Sheer's head was cut off by him.
He lifted Asuna Sheer's head on the long sword, and Hou Hu rode his horse on the battlefield and ran wildly.
When the Turkic Spirit Cavalry saw that his main general had been killed, he suddenly looked like a deflated ball and no longer had the courage to fight the Tang army to death. They threw away the scimitar in their hands and urged the horse to start running for life.
If one person runs for life, two people will run for life, and even hundreds of people will follow you.
In addition, the Tang army gained the upper hand and the crazy killing caused the Turkic army to collapse in an all-round way.
"Kill--" Zhang Gongjin roared. The moment he saw Ashinasheer's head, he breathed a sigh of relief.
The suppressed emotions during this period also erupted completely. He surged out of his heart like a volcano eruption. He passed this anger to various parts of his body and began to lead his troops to massacre the Turkic spirit cavalry.
The entire Turkic cavalry army collapsed and disrupted their own camp. In addition, Zhang Gongjin was desperately slaughtering the Turkic cavalry that fled behind. Many Turkic cavalry crowded to escape and collided with horses. Many Turkic cavalrymen pushed off their horses and stepped on their own war horses.
However, the defeat of the Turkic cavalry was a foregone conclusion, and Li Mengchang occupied the only way for their retreat.
This made the Turkic army very scattered when it was defeated, and gave the Tang cavalry who were chasing them the maximum performance.
Therefore, when Li Mengchang successfully intercepted the defeated Turkic cavalry, no matter how much the Turkic cavalry escaped, they could not escape the Tang army's encirclement and blockade.
Therefore, they chose to surrender.
Yes, they chose to surrender, put out their weapons, and they really surrendered.
When Zhang Gongjin, who was red-eyed, chased Li Mengchang's army, Li Mengchang had completed the surrender ceremony of more than 10,000 Turkic cavalry and had tied them all up.
"Governor Zhang - let's clean up the battlefield and report the results of the battle here to Your Highness and the General Manager!"
Seeing Zhang Gongjin's angry eyes, Li Mengchang promptly stopped him from killing the Turkic surrendered soldiers again and spoke up.
Zhang Gongjin is a person who pays attention to the overall situation. Li Mengchang's words reminded him that he knew that Li Ke and Li Jing were very worried about the battle situation here, and that the battle situation here might affect the strategic deployment of the entire Tang army.
So, he accepted Li Mengchang's suggestion.
"Then let's take them down first. After the battlefield is cleared, we will return to the army and the Chief Executive and His Highness the King of Han to let them deal with it!"
Zhang Gongjin said seriously.
"No need, just let them take a little longer and take a look at the sky, heavy snow and grass!"
Li Mengchang smiled and said to Zhang Gongjin, "When we clear the battlefield, it's time for them to set off!"
Damn, you are so cruel! This is a sentence that came out of Zhang Gongjin's heart. He just wanted to kill the surrendered soldiers, but he did this because of anger and his eyes were red. But he just wanted to kill a few prisoners to release his anger.
But Li Mengchang's actions were indeed cruel. Don't look at his gentle and elegant gentleman appearance, now Zhang Gongjin knows that this guy is the real ruthless character! "Then I'll leave it to you to take responsibility here. I'll write a military newspaper for Your Highness!"
Zhang Gongjin glanced at Li Mengchang, then looked at the Turkic surrendered soldiers with compassion, and then the cavalry left.
He did not stop Li Mengchang from killing prisoners.
Because he knew that it was snowy and snow that he could not bring more than 10,000 people to support Li Ke, as they would not only drag down their marching speed.
Moreover, if you give them food, you will consume your own food and grass.
However, Zhang Gongjin never thought that Li Mengchang would be really cruel. He and Li Mengchang were one of the nine pioneers of the Li Shimin's Xuanwu Gate coup back then. The two of them were considered old acquaintances, but they never noticed when he had become so cruel! "Is it because he followed His Highness the King of Han that he changed?"
Zhang Gongjin told him.
Apart from this, he never thought of the reason why Li Mengchang would become really cruel.
Then, he thought of Sun Erlang, and after meeting with Li Ke last time, he heard rumors in the military camp that Su Dingfang killed 100,000 surrendered soldiers of the Turks during the battle in Youbei.
At that time, he admired Su Dingfang and the battle of Su Dingfang in Youbei and broke through tens of thousands of Turkic people, which was enough to be among the famous generals.
Therefore, he found these rumors unreliable.
But what about now?
Zhang Gongjin thought about it carefully, and coupled with his understanding of the black guards around Li Ke, Zhang Gongjin felt that Li Mengchang's change might be because of Li Ke. Based on Li Mengchang's actions today, he felt that Su Dingfang's killing of 100,000 surrendered soldiers in the Turks may not be a rumor, but it may be a real thing! However, when Zhang Gongjin thought of Li Ke, he did not think of other questions.
He trusts Li Ke very much! This kind of trust comes from the heart! It is absolute trust! At the same time, he thought of a sentence: The living is great!... The weather in the Mobei grassland is changing all the time, and heavy snowfall is common.
Therefore, when Jie Li was staying in his tent and cooking fire, the scout also reported Schroeder's march schedule to him.
After listening to the scout's report, Jie Li smiled.
He always felt that his son was short of something. He felt that his son was extremely inferior to him. When he thought of all the things he did at his age, he couldn't help but shake his head and sigh at his son's actions.
At the same time, when he thought of the young Li Ke, he couldn't help but envy Li Shimin, envious of him for having a son who was as cruel and cunning as a wolf.
Therefore, Jie Li never used Schroeder very much. It was not that he was worried about Schroeder, but that he did not dare to use Schroeder, for fear that he would not be able to do anything big and lose face.
However, as a great Khan of the Turks, Jie Li did not completely give up his son. Instead, he was constantly cultivating his son and putting Schroeder in the position of the right wise king of the Turks. This was Jie Li's training for him.
However, Schroeder was not involved in the war that the Turks experienced in the past few days, which shows that Jie Li was still not satisfied with this.
So, this time when Jie Li heard that his son Schroeder gave the order to quickly march and get along with him when he received his order, he suddenly felt that his son had grown up and that he was no longer the prince who only relied on his power to show off his power! So, he seemed very happy and smiled for a long time.
However, Jie Li would not have thought that he would never have thought that his son Schroeder was still the fool of the past, and he was still simple-minded, with four underdeveloped fools. The reason why he marched so quickly was not for Jie Li's war needs, but for revenge to Li Ke.
So, in many cases, what you see is not real! ... Similarly, Li Ke and Li Jing are hiding in the big tent to keep warm.
Jie Li's army was opposite them. After a day's marching, Jie Li caught up with them and stationed his army in the lower reaches of the Tulun River.
Until now, Jie Li has no intention of attacking. Li Ke and Li Jing know very well that he is waiting for his reinforcements.
Therefore, Li Jing and Li Ke also released many scouts to inquire about the news about Sun Erlang and Du Junchuo.
At the same time, they also sent a cavalry to inquire about the battle situation on Zhang Gongjin's side. Li Ke believed that Zhang Gongjin and Li Mengchang would not disappoint him, and he believed that Hou Hu would not disappoint him.
"What do you think of the situation right now?"
Li Jing asked Li Ke.
"Watch it happens!"
Li Ke's simple answer.
"..." Li Jing was speechless, and Li Ke's answer made him a little helpless.
"We need to determine the specific situation of the two departments of Sun Erlang and Du Junchuo before we can make arrangements!"
Li Ke took a sip of wine and said, "Of course, if good news can be heard from Zhang Gongjin, it will be even more beneficial to us!"
"Actually, what I am most worried about now is Su Dingfang, Chen Qi and the others, and I don't know how they are now?
Can the three thousand troops in their hands be able to break through the Turkish blockade and conquer Yinshan under such a harsh situation?”
Li Jing took a sip of the strong wine in the glass and said worriedly.
"This great manager can be very relieved. The Three Thousand Wolf Cavalry Camp can match 30,000 elite cavalry. I am sure that it is easy for the Wolf Cavalry Camp to capture Yinshan!"
Li Ke said confidently, and he did not feel that he was talking big in front of Li Jing at all.
The reason why Li Ke is so confident is that he has no doubts about Su Dingfang's ability, he has no doubts about Chen Qi's strength, and he has no doubts about the combat effectiveness of the Wolf Cavalry Camp.
In fact, when Li Ke formed his own personal guard, the Eagle Guard was indeed for his own safety, but the purpose of forming the Wolf Cavalry Camp was really to prepare the cavalry that was prepared to conquer Yinshan today.
