Chapter 3 Frost Blade (Part 1)

Chapter 3 Frost Blade (Part 1)

The strength of being a horse thief is that he comes and goes like the wind. Sha Qianli has never done this before, not biting off the fat but creating opportunities for others. However, as long as he makes up his mind, this does not matter to him.

Nothing too difficult. It is nothing more than trying to interfere with the enemy's judgment of the situation as much as possible. The more mistakes Zhezhe City makes, the greater the chance of victory for the Tang Army. If Ju Chebi Shihan

He and a group of his minions were frightened into fear before fighting. In the next battle, the Tang army fought as they wanted.

After figuring out the key, he ordered his people to stop the team, break it up and reorganize it. A group of veterans led a group of prisoners, and they set up a flag to pretend to be a regiment. In the blink of an eye, the momentum of the entire team was inflated.

three times.

Since there were "thousands" of troops under his command, it was natural that he could no longer play the trick of charging forward with light cavalry. Therefore, he rested every forty miles and rested his horses every two hours. In an orderly manner, it was not until the early morning of the third day that he arrived at Zhezhe.

Under the city, we cut wood and set up camp five miles east of the city.

Walking all this way with great power, it was impossible for Ju Chebishi Khan in Zhezhe City not to get any news. However, unfortunately, neither the informants he had placed throughout the territory nor the scouts he sent later could deliver any news.

There are no accurate figures about the Tang army. Most of the informants were shot into a hornet's nest by fellow Tang army scouts on the road. The few who escaped by chance either reported that they could not get close to the main force of the Tang army, or they made false claims.

The numbers of Tang Jun were described in a very detailed way.

There are at least a dozen regiments in the vanguard, and there are more than twenty regiments in the follow-up. In addition, there are rumors that there is another group of soldiers and horses, under the banner of Duan Xiushi, crossing the Yaochashui and heading towards Zhezhe City at night.

, the total number of people is unknown... All kinds of missing information came together, immediately causing Ju Chebi Shihan to be in disarray.

He originally did not have the courage to confront the Tang Dynasty, otherwise he would not try to deal with the envoys with the help of horse thieves. However, Ban Tianyun, Lao Beifeng and other horse thieves gang gathered more than two thousand people, but they did not even throw a stick in front of the envoys.

Xiang collapsed before he could hold on for a long time. Of course, the size of the mission's bodyguards could not be the number of people they heard about before! But if the size of the mission's bodyguards really numbered nearly 10,000, how could they not wait until they had passed Ba Han?

, was the trace discovered?

"Is it possible that someone is deliberately deceiving me? Let me hit the tip of the knife on my own initiative? It's possible! All the news about the mission came from the direction of Bahanna. That guy Asillanda has always wanted me to die early.

!But now that I have done all the things I should do and shouldn’t do, what should I do next..."

Juche Bishi was so worried that he couldn't sleep at night. He was tossing and turning when he suddenly heard a loud siren outside, people shouting and horses neighing. He immediately turned over and jumped out of bed, grabbed the machete he had kept next to his pillow, and took three steps.

He rushed out of the palace in two steps, "What's going on? Who is on duty tonight? Will you seek death?"

"Great Khan!" Upon seeing this, several palace guards hurried over and took off their brocade robes to wrap up Ju Chebi Shihan's body. "Tang troops were found outside the city and were cutting down trees to set up camp! The Prime Minister of Baishaer is ordering people.

Close the city gates and strictly prohibit anyone from entering or exiting, lest spies from the Tang army sneak into the city!"

"Close the city gate? Who gave the order to open the city? What did he want to do by opening the door in the middle of the night? Who is coming..." Ju Chebishi was furious and immediately wanted to order the official responsible for the security of the city to be executed. The words were on his lips,

Suddenly, I found that the panic on everyone's faces was clearly visible. I looked up and realized that it was already dawn. At this moment, the sun was trying its best to get out from behind the clouds in the east.

The common people are used to working at sunrise and resting at sunset, so there is nothing wrong with the officials in charge of public security opening the city gates before sunrise. Juche Bishi is considered a hero and cannot be seen by his subordinates at critical moments.

Panic came over him, so he thought for a moment and asked in a low voice: "From which direction did the Tang army come, and how many in number are they? Are the forage fields, horse pens, and sheep pens outside the city safe?"

"Thank you, Great Khan!" Fadeni, the chief of guard, understood what information Juchebishi needed most at the moment. He took a few steps forward and bowed to respond, "The Tang army came from the east. My subordinates have just sent people there.

If we look out at the top of the city, we will be able to report the specific size of the Tang army right away. As for the fortress outside the city where fodder is stored and horses, cattle and sheep are kept, there is no smoke released yet, so it should not have been attacked at all!"

The grain, grass, baggage, cattle, sheep and livestock were not looted, which means that the Tang army did not want to loot and then leave? Then what did they want to do? Do they still want to capture Zhezhe City? How many people did they come? Who lent them such

Big courage?

The more he thought about it, the more Ju Chebi Shihan felt that he was at a loss. He pushed away the guard who was trying to support him and ordered loudly, "Bring me the armor and prepare the horse. I will go to the top of the city to take a look in person. Let Baishaer and Gaya

Xi, Zabier and others are waiting for me at the east gate tower. By the way, take the Mu Taoist out of the prison and escort him to the east gate tower to meet me!"

"Yes, Khan!" the guards agreed and split up. After half a stick of incense, Ju Chebishi changed into a suit of pale golden armor and, surrounded by people, walked up to the east tower.

At this moment, the sun has risen so high that it shines so red that it hurts the eyes. Ju Chebi put his hand on his brow, resisting the discomfort in his eyes and looked eastward. He saw a camp that was more than a hundred feet wide rising from the ground.

In the camp, countless Tang soldiers wearing khaki armor were busy going back and forth. At the entrance of the camp, there were groups of cavalry on guard, all of them wearing bright helmets. You could tell at a glance that they were elite soldiers from Anxi.

Ju Chebishi counted roughly and found that there were four tooth flags representing the status of captains. According to the military system of the Tang Dynasty that he was familiar with, each captain was under the jurisdiction of three captains, and each captain controlled a regiment.

, three hundred soldiers. This means that there are at least twelve regiments coming outside the city, with an army of 3,600 to 4,000! It’s no wonder that Ban Tianyun and other horse thieves couldn’t even hold on for half a stick of incense in front of them!

Thinking of the horse thieves waiting for Ban Tianyun, he immediately thought of an important person. He turned around and asked loudly, "Is that smelly Taoist named Mu escorted here? Hurry and escort him to the tower to see me!"

"Bring the Kaffir surnamed Mu, the Great Khan!" A response came immediately from the bottom of the city. Several jihadists in black robes, like carrying chickens, carried away the military advisor of the Bantian Yunma bandit gang and the wandering Taoist priest.

Mu Yangren picked it up and slapped it on the stone slab in the center of the watchtower like mud.

Mu Yangren was the first horse thief leader to leave the battlefield after realizing that the situation was not good that day. He was also the only one who came to Zhezhe City to seek refuge with Ju Che Bishi. Because he was quick to see the opportunity, he also brought more than fifty people with him.

I thought that with these brothers under my command, I could become a small official in Zhezhe City. Unexpectedly, I didn't even see Ju Chebi Shi's face, so he was given weapons and stuffed into the city.

into a prison specially set up by the Tianfang Sect for heretics.

After entering this kind of prison, it is basically impossible to get out alive. So in the past few days, Mu Daoren promised all kinds of benefits to the guards, just to see Ju Chebishi. Now that he finally got his wish, how could he

Can you not feel excited? Immediately, he crawled a few steps forward, hugged Ju Chebi Shi's thigh tightly with both hands, choked with sobs and cried: "Great Khan, your slave has finally seen you. Great Khan, you are so beautiful."

Be careful, someone is plotting against you. The Tang Dynasty mission has more than 600 guards, more than 600 people!"

As soon as he saw Mu Yangren's dirty look, Ju Chebi Shihan couldn't hold back the anger in his heart. He kicked Mu Yangren to the ground and asked loudly: "Damn you, tell me, what happened to you that day?"

How many enemies did you meet?"

"Two thousand, maybe, maybe one thousand five hundred, no, no, maybe one thousand. Lord Khan, I am old and have dazzled eyes, how can I see too clearly!" Mu Yangren thought that he had exaggerated before.

The lie about the number of enemy troops has been exposed, and he immediately opened his mouth and started lying.

"Damn it! I didn't see it clearly. Now I'll let you see it clearly!" Ju Chebishi was trembling with anger. He bent down, picked up Mu Yangren, and put him on the crenellation outside the tower, "Look.

, then open your eyes and look, how many people are down there?"

"Tang Jun?" Mu Yangren was startled and quickly opened his eyes to take a closer look. Against the sunlight, he could not see clearly, but he could clearly see that the busy people in the camp far exceeded the escort of the envoy he encountered that day.

Now, the trouble will be big! He groaned secretly in his heart, and at the same time his eyes began to move rapidly. "Khan, my subordinates found that the number of Tang troops did not match the rumors, and they came to warn you immediately! If my subordinates had stopped at that time,

If we carefully calculate the number of Tang soldiers, it will be impossible for them to come back alive to report to you!"

"You cowardly idiot!" Ju Chebishi scolded, but he knew in his heart that Mu Yangren was right. Thousands of horse thieves joined forces to slaughter the fat sheep, but they met a group of tigers. Arslan

, the life and death of Sejirahu and others are still uncertain, and the only one who knows the enemy's strength best is the useless Taoist priest in his hand. Thinking of this, he gently put Mu Yangren down and asked in a slightly gentler tone, "Please be careful.

Think about it, what was the process of the fight that day? Tell the truth, and I will plead with the Tianfang Sect to forgive you for spreading heresy!"

"I, I..." Mu Yangren felt aggrieved. Anyone with a discerning eye would know that he was a fake at a glance, but it almost turned out to be a talisman for death, "I was..."

At that time, the number of enemy troops was indeed not very large, otherwise he would not have been able to slip through the net. But now, telling the truth is tantamount to courting death. Mu Yangren thought about it carefully and slowly recalled: "At that time, I was ordered to detour back to the enemy.

Behind the army. Unexpectedly, just halfway through, I heard a horn sound. Then, Tang troops came out from all directions, and our more than 2,500 brothers were drowned in one fell swoop. I was thinking about giving the big

Khan reported the news and immediately drew his horse and fled..."

"Nonsense, flooding you in all directions, isn't that at least ten thousand people in size?!" How could such a riddled lie be concealed from Ju Chebishi and the others? Immediately, Zuo Shuai Gayasi stepped forward and retorted sharply,

"Think carefully and don't talk nonsense! If you talk nonsense again, I will throw you out of here!"

"I, I really didn't see clearly!" Mu Yangren bowed repeatedly, fearing that he would stroke the opponent's tiger beard. It was also his life that should not be cut off. At this moment, there was another blast of horns outside the city, and there were countless sounds.

The Tang army, under the shining of the morning sun, rolled in from the east.
