At this time, Ma Tianyun, Zhu Tianhu, Ma Feihu, Shen Huocheng and others who had gathered the battle situation gathered around them. They looked at Jiang and Long, the two deputy commanders, and asked: "Do you want to continue the pursuit?"

Jiang Huo looked at everyone's excitement and shook his head gently.

"The Imperial Master ordered them to give them an hour to escape, not to push too hard, and to leave a way for those who can survive."

"Send our injured soldiers back to Nanyun City. The remaining soldiers will rest for a while and then set off again in an hour. Tonight we will set up camp at a post station halfway and wait for the arrival of the national division."

Jiang Huo said in a deep voice.

Ma Tianyun looked at Jiang Huo and asked, "Deputy Commander Jiang, the National Division's ambush was well prepared today, and it was not in vain that we dug dozens of big holes in the winter."

Shen Huocheng looked at him and smiled: "If I had known it was so powerful, brothers should have dug more holes."

"Speaking of these pits, the soldiers were all complaining at that time, saying that the Imperial Guards did not understand how to sympathize with their subordinates and let them dig pits in the ice and snow." Ma Feihu looked at everyone and smiled.

Long Potian looked at the happy faces of everyone and said in a solemn voice: "The Imperial Master is thinking about them, don't you understand? If this sudden explosion hadn't disrupted the deployment of the prairie cavalry, I'm afraid we would still be fighting hard at the top of the city.

!”

Jiang Huo nodded and said with a smile: "In short, everyone just obeys the command of the National Preceptor and the Grand Marshal."

Everyone accepted the order and retreated one after another.

...

Nanyun City Head.

Li Ye looked at the billowing smoke outside the city, and his heart was filled with ups and downs.

No matter how unhappy he was, his hands were stained with blood again.

Looking at Wei Qingyu and Wang Tianhua walking over, Li Ye asked with a smile: "Do you want to go and see the battlefield?"

Wei Qingyu nodded vigorously.

Wang Tianhua patted his chest and said, "But I will listen to the arrangements of the Imperial Master."

Li Ye nodded, looked at the two of them and said: "You two go to the eldest prince and ask for five thousand soldiers and horses. Immediately go out of the city to clean up the fighting field ten miles outside the city, and bring back the injured prairie soldiers for treatment. The dead ones are

Buried on the spot.”

"The most important thing is to bring all the horses that have fallen to the ground back to Nanyun City. As long as you do this well, I will give you another credit."

Wang Tianhua touched his head and smiled: "So it turns out that the war horses are what the Imperial Master has been obsessed with?"

"Nonsense, those are treasures! You can't even buy them with money." Li Ye looked at the two of them and said with a smile.

"Don't worry, Imperial Master, we will definitely complete the mission." Wei Qingyu looked at Wang Tianhua and couldn't help but laugh.

Li Ye continued: "After finishing this matter, you will take the heavy soldiers battalion and siege tanks early tomorrow morning and drive towards the third town. The eldest prince will send a guide to take you there."

Wang Tianhua nodded.

"I will wait for you halfway." Li Ye raised his head and glanced at the sky, thinking that in another hour, it would be time for him to set off.

"Does the Imperial Master want to set off first?" Wei Qingyu looked at Li Ye and asked.

"I want to meet up with deputy commanders Jiang and Long. They will be waiting for me halfway." Li Ye looked at the two of them and replied calmly.

After receiving the order, the two said goodbye to Li Ye and turned to leave.

After gently exhaling, Li Ye turned around and returned to the back room. He looked at Mu Mu lying on the bed and said with a smile: "You haven't even gone to the battlefield, and you are so tired?"

Mu Mu glared at him and said, "You won't let me follow Deputy Marshal Jiang and the others to the battlefield. I'm almost suffocated from holding it in here."

"Your responsibility is to protect me and pack your things. We will set off soon to meet Jiang Shuai and the others." Li Ye looked at her and smiled lightly.

Li Ye nodded to her.

Unexpectedly, Mu Mu clapped her hands and said with a smile: "What's there to clean up? Let's leave now."

"Wait!" Li Ye grabbed her. "We will leave after the Generalissimo and City Lord Yang arrive.

...

Let’s talk about the kings running back to the three towns in southern Xinjiang.

They had not had a war in the southern border of the dynasty for more than 20 years, and their military strength was weak, so they led tens of thousands of grassland cavalry to violently ravage the three southern towns.

Nearly two hundred thousand cavalry wanted to carve up half of the territory of Nanxuan Territory. However, they did not expect that they encountered the most brutal blow in front of Nanyun City. They saw that the army of Southern Xinjiang gradually changed from a passive situation to chasing them.

Hit.

If they fight on the grassland, they can also take advantage of the right time and place. In addition, the southern Xinjiang army quickly changed the situation and started chasing them, which made them feel comfortable.

On the other hand, the prairie cavalry lacked coordinated command at the moment. In the past, they all attacked one side individually, but once the coordinated operations encountered danger, they all fled.

Seeing that the situation was over, Yelu Chucai let out a long sigh, looked at the three kings beside him and said, "Let's retreat to the three towns first, and then we can discuss it again."

Zhize Suogu glanced at Yue Wuxie and Lan Tianqi, and sighed: "Then go back first and talk about it later."

The cold wind howled, Hai Dongqing rushed down, spread his wings, and squatted obediently on Yeluqi's shoulders like a sensible child, which made people feel sad.

The kings were silent. The facts they saw made not only the soldiers of the grassland tribes feel sad, but also Hai Dongqing, who was flying in the nine heavens, also felt the helplessness of his master.

"Let's go." Yelu waved his hand and glanced at Yeluqi behind him.

The only thing that gave him some comfort was that his two children were safe and sound during this war, which was also a comfort to him.

After all, more than half of the 200,000-strong army had suffered casualties.

This gave the four great Khans an extremely headache. They didn't even know how to go back and face the relatives of these dead soldiers.

...

Li Ye waited for Yang Kaiyi and the eldest prince. After arranging a lot of trivial matters, they were anxious to see him.

Because Li Ye is going to the front line.

"Let the soldiers in the city, or ask the people in the city to go to work, to fill in these big holes outside the city. After the war is over, this will still be the land of Southern Xinjiang." Li Ye looked at the two people and said quietly

.

Yang Kaiyi agreed. "What the National Master said is that wherever these countless big pits are placed, they will be a big hidden danger in the future."

The eldest prince frowned and said, "Wouldn't that cost a lot of manpower?"

Li Ye looked at his sad face and couldn't help but smile: "There is another way to store water and raise fish."

The eldest prince and Yang Kaiyi both rolled their eyes at him.

Li Ye looked at the two of them and said seriously: "From now on, the front line will be the three towns. Starting tomorrow, please arrange for the army to move to the three towns in southern Xinjiang. We will set up camp under their eyes."

Upon hearing this, Yang Kaiyi quickly nodded and replied: "Don't worry, Imperial Master, the supply of food and grass will not be short."

The eldest prince thought for a while and asked: "Should we move all the weapons in the city to the front line?"

Li Ye nodded and said with a smile: "Otherwise? Keep it and send it to the Imperial City? Where our battlefield is, all the weapons must be there!"

Yang Kaiyi smiled and asked: "How many people do the Imperial Master plan to bring with him?"

After thinking seriously for a long time, he said: "I will bring one or two hundred people...Tomorrow, please arrange for the army to set off and bring military supplies."

The eldest prince smiled and said: "Is this enough people? What if we encounter scattered prairie cavalry along the way..."

Li Ye showed a confident smile on his face and said: "Are you afraid that I can't defeat the soldiers of the grassland? Don't worry, don't I still have a sister?"

"Princess Nanyun is indeed a master." Yang Kaiyi said with a smile: "Ordinary people are indeed no match for her. The generalissimo is overly worried about this."

"It's not too much to worry about." Li Ye replied with a smile: "I still have to thank the Generalissimo. Next, we need to work together to win this war."

"Okay." The eldest prince laughed cheerfully, and after thinking for a while he asked, "We will arrange for the army to go south tomorrow."

Li Ye looked at these two powerful figures in southern Xinjiang, waved his hand and led Mumu out of the attic on the city wall.

...

"The troops arranged for the Imperial Guard are outside the city gate, and the general leading the team is Ma Kaiyun!" Yang Kaiyi chased out and looked at Li Ye and said.

"Thank you so much, City Lord Yang, for the arrangement!" Li Ye said goodbye to him with fists clasped, and walked all the way down the tower.

"Have you brought anything to eat? There's no place to buy snacks here." Li Ye looked at Mu Mu who was following him and asked with a smile.

Mu Mu glanced at him, then lowered her head shyly, and replied softly: "I have prepared a lot of snacks, which I bought two days ago when I went shopping with Sister Qingyu."

Li Ye looked at her and thought of the little girl who pestered him everywhere in Tianshan many years ago to look for wild fruits. The little girl who would act coquettishly at night. He couldn't help but said softly: "That's good. If it doesn't work, we can wait until then."

Please trouble City Master Yang and the others."

"No, the worst thing is to ask Sister Qingyu to come back and buy it. She also likes to eat it." Mu Mu raised her little face with a bright sunshine.

Li Ye nodded, looked at her quietly and said, "After this battle is over, we may not go back to Windy City."

Mu Mu looked at him puzzled and asked: "Why?"

At this time, the two of them had already reached the door of Nanyun Tower. Looking at the confusion on Mu Mu's face, they smiled and said, "Because Your Majesty left me a mess."

"Ah!" Mu Mu pulled his sleeve and asked, "What? I must not understand it."

Li Ye looked at him and shook his head helplessly, and said softly: "It's more fun than fighting in Nanyun City. Are you going?"

"Don't even think about leaving me!" Mu Mu replied with a smile.

...

"National Preceptor, the Generalissimo asked me to take a thousand soldiers to the front line with you!" Ma Tianyun looked at Li Ye walking over with excitement on his face.

Li Ye looked at the neatly lined up soldiers behind him and said with a smile: "Leave eight hundred and go back and report to the generalissimo. We only need two hundred people."

Ma Tianyun looked at him and asked in confusion: "Is two hundred people enough? There is a chaos of war outside, what if..." He did not dare to finish his words, and just looked at Li Ye blankly.

"Nothing wrong, just do as I say." Li Ye took the reins from his hand.

Mu Mu also led a war horse and followed Li Ye.

"There are still many things in Nanyun City that require everyone's joint efforts. We cannot bring all the troops to the front line!" Looking at Ma Tianyun who was still confused, Li Ye had to explain to him.

"General, I understand!" Ma Tianyun and the deputy general behind him ordered: "I will take 200 people to follow the imperial master, and the remaining troops will be left to you."

The deputy general nodded and waved, and a group of troops set off towards the city.

"Let's go, it seems we have to drive at night today!" Li Ye looked up at the sky and said calmly.

The group of people mounted their horses, crossed the trestle bridge on the moat, and ran towards the wilderness ten miles away.

"Brother, why does this place stink so much? Mu Mu is about to vomit." The war horse galloped on the official road. The large pits left by the explosion of the methane tanks on both sides of the road gave off bursts of stench.

Li Ye looked at her and smiled without saying a word.

Ma Tianyun, who was following Li Ye, looked at Mu Mu and said with a smile: "Princess, you don't know, this pit is filled with horse dung and rotten vegetable leaves. How can it stop smelling after so long?"

Mu Mu took out her silk scarf, covered her mouth and nose, and glared at Li Ye fiercely.

"I guess even the Khan King of the grassland would not be able to guess that the national army would use horse dung and rotten vegetable leaves to deal with them." Ma Tianyun looked at the two of them and laughed.

Li Ye didn't say anything, he just waved his riding whip and ran in a farther direction.
