Su Dingfang knew his soldiers very well. Most of them were Turks. It was useless to tell them about the righteousness of the family and the country. He shouted loudly: "Listen to me. Outside, there are military merits and silver rewards. According to the Hanzhou army,
According to regulations, the five heads will cancel their slave status and become Loulan civilians. All Loulan civilians will be rewarded with a silver reward for killing an enemy. They will also receive high compensation for their casualties. They will follow me out of the city, kill the enemy, and receive a silver reward!"
"Kill the enemy and get the reward!"
"Kill the enemy and get the reward!"
The army roared and roared to the sky.
Everyone's eyes lit up when they thought of the silver reward. It was real money, and no copper coins were deducted. With the money, the family can survive.
There must be a brave man under the heavy reward!
This trick worked repeatedly, and Su Dingfang saw that he had once again successfully aroused morale, and shouted: "The enemies outside the city are in chaos, and those heads are just like picking up for free. Picking up heads is picking up silver. Open the city gate and go pick up the silver."
"Go pick up some silver."
"Quick, open the city gate!"
"Hurry up, don't delay me picking up the money."
The soldiers urged loudly, wanting to rush out and chop off a few heads immediately.
The city gate that had been closed for many days slowly opened, and a beam of sunlight shone in, which lifted people's spirits.
"rush ahead!"
Su Dingfang roared and rushed out first.
The general is the soul of the soldier. The general will fight tooth and nail, and the soldiers will do the same.
Everyone rushed out with howls and screams, their horses' hooves thundering like thunder from the sky.
Soon, a large army rushed out of the city and rushed towards the Turkic army.
The Turkic army, which was mobilizing troops to fight, was stunned when they saw this formation - is this still the cowardly army that can't retreat? Quickly mobilize troops and generals to come up and stop them.
However, most of the soldiers have been transferred to the rear. There are insufficient troops in the front, and they are directly scattered by the Loulan Army with high morale. Su Dingfang is like a tiger coming out of the gate, with a horse and a tiger creating wind, no one can stop it, leading the army fiercely.
dash forward.
"Puff! Puff!"
The sound of spearheads piercing through flesh was heard. Su Dingfang was like a god of war. He was unstoppable and fiercely cut through a gap. The soldiers took the opportunity to rush forward and widen the gap.
Wherever the Turkic army could stop them, they retreated steadily.
Su Dingfang got excited about killing and picked off several people in one breath. He suddenly felt that his vision was empty. He quickly looked around and saw that he was charging very fiercely. He was killing each one desperately. He cut off his ears and put them away in excitement. This was for money.
According to the evidence, the Turks' morale plummeted, and they shouted excitedly: "Hurry, the money is going to run away."
As soon as everyone heard that Yinzi was about to run away, they immediately accelerated their killing speed.
More and more Loulan troops rushed out of the city. They felt that there were too many people in front of them and they missed the opportunity to make a fortune. They quickly dispersed and rushed forward. Their red eyes stared at the target's neck, as if it was Jinshan.
.
The Turks felt that the Loulan army was crazy. Their eyes were too scary, like hungry wild wolves. Their low morale suddenly disappeared. They did not dare to fight, so they turned around and ran away.
"Quick, the money is going to run away."
"Don't let them get away."
Loulan's army suddenly became anxious and slapped their horses with all their might to charge forward.
For a time, tens of thousands of Loulan troops covered the area like a tide, drowning the Turkic troops.
Su Dingfang didn't care whether the team was in chaos or not. The Turkic army was in chaos anyway, so he would fight indiscriminately and win in the chaos. He had more people and friendly troops. He was so scared that he led a large army to kill them all. After a closer look,
Recognizing it was Luo Zhang, he was immediately overjoyed and shouted: "Luo Zhang, but the young master is here?"
Luo Zhang followed Qin Huaidao back to Chang'an. Now that he appears, there is only one explanation: the King of Han has returned.
"Uncle is luring the enemy at Yangguan. Otherwise, why would the Turks mobilize their troops and leave? Let's fight quickly and talk about it later." Luo Zhang's voice rolled over.
When Su Dingfang heard that Qin Huaidao was luring the enemy at Yangguan, his doubts suddenly became clear, and he was moved. In order to reduce the pressure on Loulan, the King of Han did not hesitate to use his body as a bait. What kind of kindness was this?
A scholar dies for a confidant!
"Kill--"
A roar, like thunder.
The next moment, the horse in Su Dingfang's hand shook, and the war horse was psychic. Feeling Su Dingfang's overwhelming fighting spirit, its hooves flew, carrying Su Dingfang and rushing towards a place with a large number of Turks.
The soldiers also sensed Su Dingfang's strong murderous intent and ran after him, howling.
On the other side, Luo Zhang saw Su Dingfang leading tens of thousands of people to fight out. The Turks were already in chaos. He quickly changed his formation and led the army away from the battlefield. After pulling away, he shouted: "Spread out and kill with cold arrows!"
The light cavalry is flexible, adaptable, and swift, and does not resist the enemy forcefully!
Although the soldiers had not been trained in light cavalry tactics and did not know why Luo Zhang did this, they were well trained and obeyed orders. They quickly dispersed and replaced their bows with arrows.
Soon, arrows flew across the border like locusts, flying forward and flying wherever there were many Turks.
Some Turks who had finally organized themselves fell into chaos.
Cold arrow, the most deadly!
In just a short time, a large number of Turks fell down, their morale was completely lost, and they began to collapse.
However, the Loulan army was more numerous and tightly entangled the Turks, unwilling to let go of a single head, which was all rewarded with silver.
The battle changed dramatically and turned into a one-sided massacre.
There were troops in Loulan City who rushed out to help, blocking all roads and surrounding the entire Turkic legion.
No one wants to miss the opportunity to make a fortune.
What's more, after being surrounded for so long, everyone felt a fire in their hearts.
The battle, without any suspense, soon came to an end.
Seeing that they were almost killed, Su Dingfang left the army behind and rode alone to find Luo Zhang. He shouted excitedly from a distance: "Hahaha, you are finally here, brother Luo, thank you for your help."
Luo Zhang also rode forward, cupped his fists and returned the salute, saying with emotion: "Brother Su, you have worked hard!"
"Don't talk about me yet. What's going on now? I haven't received news for a long time." Su Dingfang waved his hand and looked at Luo Zhang feverishly.
"Yumen Pass is captured. An Guogong leads an army of 10,000 to guard it. Over at Dunhuang, Lu Guogong and Cheng Chumo lead their troops. Wei Guogong and Fang Yiai lead their troops behind. They will arrive at Yumen Pass tomorrow at most. My uncle will lead the special warfare division in Yang
Pass, I heard that they won the battle and killed nearly 30,000 people. The Turkic prince had no shame in withdrawing his troops, so he had to send troops and horses from various places to support him, preparing to compete with my uncle at Yangguan."
"Yangguan?" Su Dingfang keenly discovered that Yangguan had become the eye of the storm and the key point that determined the fate of Hanzhou. He immediately said: "No wonder the Turks withdrew 20,000 people and left 10,000 people without attacking. Yangguan is
The point is, I will reorganize the troops and horses immediately. Let's go to Qitun together. The situation in Qitun is definitely the same as that of Loulan. How about we first relieve the siege of Qitun and then join forces to go to Yangguan?"
"We thought of going together." Luo Zhang agreed wholeheartedly. He knew more about Su Dingfang's abilities and sighed with emotion. He figured out the key points in one sentence and had a countermeasure. He was really capable.
"Soldiers are very quick, so I won't ask you to go into the city to rest. Give me an hour to prepare." Su Dingfang cupped his fists and saluted, then hit his horse and hurried away.
The war ended soon, and the Loulan Army began to clean up the battlefield.
Luo Zhang took his troops to one side to wait and observe. He saw that Loulan's army was about 20,000 people. The original force was given to an army, which was more than 34,000 people. There were more than 20,000 people left, and more than 10,000 people died in the battle.
It can be seen that Loulan City has not had an easy time during this period.
Fortunately, the situation has turned around!
After waiting for about an hour, the battlefield was cleaned and the Turkic corpses were carried away. Su Dingfang came over with an army of ten thousand people. Loulan was an important town and people must be left to guard it.
Luo Zhang didn't ask any more questions, nodded to Su Dingfang, pulled his horse, and led his army forward.
Su Dingfang led the army to follow him.
The two armies formed a long formation, like a giant dragon slowly moving across the wasteland.
…
Outside Chang'an City.
A large-scale imperial army rushed westward along the official road, kicking up dust in the sky. The people along the way gave way and asked each other about the situation. When they learned that it was a large army setting out for an expedition, they all fell silent.
In the middle of the army, Li Er was riding a war horse, looking at the advancing army. He was high-spirited and ambitious. He was able to conquer such a huge country back then, but today he can hold it. Even the Tibetans dare to run rampant. Do you really think that my sword is at a disadvantage?
Following Li Er were a group of generals, most of whom were young. They were all graduated from martial arts and had good abilities. Duke Kui was also among them, with a sullen face and a frown on his face.
As the general who was most familiar with Tubo, Li Er naturally had to keep him with him for consultation at any time.
One day later, the army left the boundaries of Jingzhao Prefecture and arrived at Qizhou. Instead of going to Yuanzhou in the northwest and rushing to Lanzhou, they continued westward and went straight to Qinzhou.
To the west of Qinzhou is Taozhou. From Taozhou, you can directly attack Tuyuhun City.
If Tuyuhun was really captured by the Tang army, it would be like giving the Tibetan army in Longyou a sharp knife in the back and cutting off its connection with the country. The Tibetan army that had advanced to Longyou would become a lone army, and the Tang army would take the opportunity to sweep through it.
Destroying food and fodder in the rear area will inevitably lead to chaos in the morale of the army.
However, if the Tibetan army that had advanced to Longyou returned to support, and another large army from Tibet was mobilized to attack, it would form a pincer attack from the north and the south, and the Tang army would be surrounded on two sides.
Li Er has been fighting for his whole life, and of course he knows the dangers involved, but dangers and opportunities coexist.
