A group of birds chased the wind and flew across the desolate mountains, chirping and adding a bit of life to the ancient, desolate land. When passing through a valley, they suddenly jumped into the void in panic and flew away in a hurry.
In the valley, a large army was packing up their belongings and preparing to leave. No one was making any noise, and everything was orderly. A white sweat-blooded horse stood out particularly abruptly, snoring and rubbing against one of them, very intimately.
"To the King of Han, I have just received news that the Turkic army did not launch an attack on the city overnight last night, and General Xue did not leave the city." A scout hurriedly came over to report.
Qin Huaidao stroked the forehead of the war horse, White Hoofed Black, took out an egg to feed, and asked: "Is there any news about Yuegong City? Are there any new reinforcements coming from the Turks?"
"No news has been received yet."
"Continue to investigate." Qin Huaidao said in a harmonious voice. After the war horse Baitiwu ate the egg, he clapped his hands, looked behind him and Old Ghost Li smiled and said: "Uncle Old Ghost, send a team of troops north to Yuegong City and build structures along the way.
The message transfer point must find out the situation in Yuegong City as soon as possible."
"Follow the order!" Old Ghost Li agreed and hurried to make arrangements.
Luo Ying, who was waiting at the side, asked, "Uncle, are you worried about something happening to Yue Gong City?"
"Nearly 100,000 troops suddenly returned to Broken Leaf. Although there were about 30,000 wounded soldiers, 70,000 was not a small number. The Turkic Khan actually let him go. There are two possibilities. One is that Yuegong City is in danger and does not require too much
In terms of military strength, the other is that Suiye City is too important to the Turks and they have to send heavy troops back to support." Qin Huaidao said in a low voice, looking across the vast mountains to the north, Xue Rengui's figure flashed in his mind.
"I hope it's okay."
Qin Huaidao added in a low voice, thought for a while, and continued: "The special forces took the lead and marched quickly to Suiye City. They set up camp in the south of the city and formed a corner with Suiye to defend against the Turks. We must not fight in vain."
"Follow the order!" Luo Ying saluted solemnly and looked at Luo Wu next to him.
Luo Wu said knowingly: "Go, uncle, I will be safe."
"Be careful!" Luo Ying warned and hurried away.
Not long after, the special forces took the lead and disappeared into the vast mountains.
The mountains are bare, weedless, and the slope is not steep. It is convenient for war horses to move. The army followed the traces of the special forces, and the scouts went out to survey the surrounding areas.
Two hours later, the army walked out of the mountains.
Waves of shouts of killing came head on, accompanied by the sound of war drums and screams, resounding throughout the world.
The army stopped and looked at their respective superiors.
"Stop!"
"Stop!"
One guard after another acted as a messenger, galloping on horseback and shouting loudly.
On a hillside, Qin Huaidao stared straight ahead after giving the order to stop advancing, his eyes slightly focused. Unexpectedly, he happened to catch up with the Turks attacking the city. Cloud ladders were placed all over the east city wall, and countless people swarmed up. The fighting was fierce. To the south,
There was also a large army confronting Luo Ying's special forces, with a strength of about 40,000, but neither side took action.
"Luo Ying, why don't you attack?" Fang Yiai's dissatisfied voice sounded from behind.
Immediately afterwards, Fang Yi took a few steps forward, stood side by side, and continued: "King of Han, the last general invites you to fight."
"You have to change your quick temper, otherwise something will happen easily." Qin Huaidao reminded him, staring closely at the Turkic army that was attacking the city. There were about 20,000 people. The attack was very fierce, but the effect was average.
The arrows seemed to be free of charge, constantly consuming the Turkic troops.
As for those who climbed up, they were hacked to death with knives and stabbed down with spears.
The city wall was firmly guarded by Xue Wanche's army, so there was no need to worry for the time being.
Perhaps they discovered something suddenly, the Turkic camp suddenly remembered the low sound of the horn.
Immediately afterwards, the troops who were attacking the city retreated like a tide and retracted into the main camp. The 40,000 troops confronting the special forces also retreated slowly. Qin Huaidao found that the retreat was orderly and unhurried. He was obviously an elite soldier with many battles.
A little cautiously, he warned: "Duoji, lead your troops to the north of the city, set up camp, and be careful of sneak attacks."
"Follow the order!" Duoji was overjoyed and left in a hurry.
"What about me?" Fang Yiai suddenly became anxious when she saw that she had nothing to do.
"Your troops camp at the foot of the mountain looking for water sources to deter the Turks. If the Turks attack the city, you lead your troops to attack their camp. If the Turks attack your troops, I will let Dorje attack the Turks' camp. In addition, you need to pay attention to the enemy coming from the north.
, if reinforcements are discovered, you will be responsible for the ambush."
"I understand." Fang Yi understood. Isn't this just a knife hanging over the Turk's head?
"The guard regiment arranges people to serve as flag soldiers for each army. Pay attention to orders at all times. The others will follow me into the city." Qin Huaidao said and looked at Luo Wu. The city was tall and easy to control the overall situation. The flag soldiers stood on the wall so that each army could see it.
The army took action according to the order, and the guard regiment protected Qin Huaidao and rushed to the city.
When Xue Wanche saw the King of Han coming, he was overjoyed and quickly ordered the city gate to be opened. However, the city gate was filled with soil and blocked, and it would take time to clear. Xue Wanche was embarrassed and quickly explained the situation.
Qin Huaidao didn't care. He often used the trick of filling the city gates. He left the guard regiment to wait at the city gate and climbed up to the top of the city with the help of Turkic siege ladders.
"King of Han, luckily you have lived up to your command, we were almost too late!" Xue Wanche hurried up to greet him.
"It was almost too late? Tell me about the situation." Qin Huaidao asked.
Xue Wanche did not dare to conceal anything, and explained the situation in detail, not daring to omit a single detail, and did not exaggerate his military exploits. Qin Huaidao listened carefully and did not interrupt.
After a while Xue Wanche finished speaking, and finally added: "King of Han, the Turks attacked the city like crazy this morning, regardless of casualties. If the city gate had not been blocked, I am afraid it would have been broken open. However, it is really rude to let the king of Han use the ladder. I know my mistake, please
The King of Han punished him."
"Okay, there is no need to play this trick in front of me. You did the right thing."
Qin Huaidao waved his hand, not caring about these false gifts, and immediately looked at the Turkic army outside the city. He couldn't guess why they suddenly attacked like crazy. Is there anything they must get in the city? Is there food and grass?
Thoughts flashed across his mind, Qin Huaidao asked about the seizure situation.
Xue Wanche did not dare to hide anything and reported the truth truthfully.
After learning that the supplies that were supposed to be transported to Yuegong City were seized, Qin Huaidao became more and more sure of his judgment and said in a deep voice: "The supplies were not transported to Yuegong City as scheduled. This shows that there will not be too much food and grass in Yuegong City, and this Turkic army returned
, No matter what the reason is, it is impossible for the Turkic Khan to give too much food and grass, and the journey is inconvenient, and he cannot bring too much."
"What does the King of Han mean...the Turkic army is short of food?" Xue Wanche is indeed a veteran general, and he can tell the truth.
Qin Huaidao smiled and said: "Besides, there is another possibility. This is their territory. If they don't take it back, they will become wanderers. They can only escape far away and find other places to survive. It is difficult to leave their homeland without a fight.
, they are not willing to run away.”
"What does the King of Han mean that they might run away?"
So much information, I admire it!”
"I told you that there is no need to play this trick in front of me." Qin Huaidao said with a bitter smile. He was very unhappy with this kind of flattery, but he also understood Xue Wanche's thoughts. After all, Li Er liked it very much. Xue Wanche had followed Li Er for many years and had already developed the habit.
A cautious way to survive.
"King Xie Han, since the Turks may escape, do you want to make arrangements in advance? The morale of my brothers is strong and they can fight again." Xue Wanche felt warm in his heart and quickly asked for a fight.
