"Khan, get up quickly, the Tang army is coming to kill you."
At dawn the next day, Xue Yantuo Khan did not kill Wadahan, but the Tang Dynasty's army was not far away from them. Fortunately, this guy was more vigilant and placed enough sentries outside, otherwise the Tang Dynasty would
The army came directly to kill him.
Don't underestimate the investigative capabilities of the Tang Dynasty army. With the sounding balloons, especially in the Gobi Desert, it is too easy for them to find people. Before dawn in the morning, Su Dingfang sent two
Form an army and let them search the surrounding area. Who knows, they might actually find clues.
Now that we have found the clues, we cannot let our enemies go. Su Dingfang led two thousand people and came directly.
Xue Yantuo Khan heard the sound in a daze and thought that his men were frightened. When he was about to curse, there was an explosion outside the door. This kind of sound could not be heard in other places.
You can only hear it when you are fighting against the Tang Dynasty army. This is the secret weapon of the Tang Dynasty army, so this guy doesn't dare to neglect it.
"You guys go up and hold me up."
Xue Yantuo Khan said while putting on his armor. This man did not dare to be negligent at all. After ordering his men to go up, he took the remaining men and ran in the other direction. He did not dare to delay for a minute.
You know that the Tang army comes and goes without a trace, and its offensive capabilities are also very powerful. If you don't seize all the time to escape, then by the time you come to your senses, your escape path will have been blocked.
Hundreds of Xue Yantuo's cavalry rushed forward bravely. After confirming their position, a large number of artillery shells began to explode along the way.
Do all cannonballs have eyes?
The cannonballs of the Tang Dynasty did not have eyes, but the Tang Dynasty had observers in the sky. They could adjust the shooting angle at any time, so these people had the illusion that they would explode wherever they went.
"Report to the general, our brothers in heaven say that another army has fled to the southwest."
A soldier took out a map from his back and found some situations in the southwest according to what the brothers in the sky said.
"This guy is quite capable, but we have to deal with the people in front of us first. The people we brought are too few and we can't divide our troops. Let the brothers in the sky keep an eye on them as much as possible."
Su Dingfang said somewhat depressedly, mainly because half of his men had to be used to protect Mr. Zhao. There was no way to bring all the thousands of men under him to the battlefield, otherwise Xue Yantuo Khan would be able to be eliminated today.
Facts have proved that Su Dingfang's strategy is correct. If they cooperate with the investigation, they may not be able to catch these people in the military camp. By then, we will bite off more than we can chew, and our losses will be in front of us. Now, although Khan Xue Yantuo
He left, but after this sneak attack, there were even fewer people under him. In addition to taking away more than 400 people, we captured all the remaining people.
In addition to these people, there is also a large amount of gold and silver in the military camp. This should have been brought out by Khan Xue Yantuo. It was not convenient to take it away before leaving, so we took it away. After a little inventory, the total value
About half a million dollars.
"Xue Yantuo is such a poor place. If you ask me, even if you don't poop, how can you still have so much money? General Mo Lun said that in Gaochang Kingdom, he was just like a boy who gave away money. He didn't know that he gave away so much money.
, I thought this guy was already a poor man, but we didn’t expect that we found so many more.”
Su Dingfang said with some distress, why did you give the money to the ministers of Gaochang State? If you had brought all of it with you, then we would have messed it up this time. Look at the boxes of gold after boxes, how amazing it is.
beautiful.
"What did the general say? We are also a country. They have a lot of cattle, sheep and furs there every year, but the people below consume very little. Although the harvest is not much, the savings are quite a lot."
These soldiers also came from Xue Yantuo, and they knew the local situation to some extent. They had been trading with the people in the mainland, and there were quite a lot of gold and silver. In the end, they all came to their Khan.
in hands.
"Take all these things back to our camp."
Su Dingfang also nodded depressedly, saying that what his men said was right. After transporting these things away, he looked at the direction in which Khan Xue Yantuo fled. He would soon be able to enter the territory of Gaochang Kingdom.
Others can get in, but we can't get in. Even if we catch up, we will probably return in vain, so we might as well not do that useless effort.
"This battle is so uncomfortable. They can enter and exit the border of Gaochang State, but we have no way to enter and exit. Isn't Gaochang State a small country? The total population is only one million people. Why don't you, General, tell your Highness to give it to you?
Let’s send 30,000 troops to destroy him.”
On the way back, his deputy general said angrily.
"Why are you so angry than me? If I could make the decision, I could destroy him if you give me 20,000, let alone 30,000."
Su Dingfang was also very depressed, but when it came to the relationship between the two countries, he still remembered what Li Xiang told him. He must not take the initiative. We must maintain good diplomatic relations. There are so many countries in the Western Regions.
, A single move can affect the whole body. We cannot just rush in without a definite reason. If these dozen countries unite, we will be the ones who suffer.
"Isn't tomorrow the day when the special envoys of the two countries meet? If the envoys of the two countries meet, will we also be able to enter Gaochang State?"
The deputy general suddenly thought of another thing. Gaochangguo has already replied to us. Tomorrow their special envoy Mr. Wadahan will arrive at the border. After a brief meeting with our Mr. Zhao, we will go to their royal city.
Already.
"You think you can kill people randomly when you go in. You have to abide by the rules when you go to other people's lands. But there is one thing I have to say first. If they really want to protect Xue Yantuo Khan, and they say it directly, then we are the big ones.
For the enemies of the Tang Dynasty, nothing can be done excessively in the face of the enemy."
Su Dingfang's eyes were like fire. He wished that the king of Gaochang Kingdom would announce this in public. As long as you dare to announce it in public, even though we only have 5,000 people, you guys will still be in trouble.
