Zhao Youlin looked at the soldiers in front of him with an incomprehensible expression.
After a while, he came to his senses and immediately stood up and said to the soldier: "What's going on? Tell me clearly!"
"Yes, it's Fang'er Jinshan."
"Something happened in Fang Erjin Mountain."
The soldier swallowed his saliva and said: "Three days ago, our army was advancing into the depths of Fang'erjin Mountain in an orderly manner according to the king's order, preparing to plunder the Luhu tribe in the south of Fang'erjin Mountain."
"Who would have thought that before our army could take action against the Luhu tribe."
"A troop of Xue Yantuo's cavalry, numbering over 10,000 men, suddenly emerged from the mountains."
"The combat effectiveness of this cavalry is extraordinary, and many of them are armed with the same firearms as those in the Tang Dynasty and the Angsa Empire."
"Our army only held on for a moment and was dispersed by the opponent."
"They took back all the cattle, sheep and horses they had plundered."
Hearing what the other party said, Zhao Youlin couldn't help but widen his eyes.
"firearm?"
"How could Xue Yantuo have firearms?"
Xue Yantuo has basically not launched any external wars in recent years, let alone directly fought against the Tang Dynasty.
Where did they get their firearms?
Bought it from Datang? Bought it from Ansa? How is that possible?
You know, after the war of Angsa's invasion of Western Turks, he also secretly looked for ways to purchase firearms or develop firearms.
But neither the former nor the latter is difficult to achieve.
The first is purchasing, and both Datang and Ansa adhere to the same attitude.
Other things can be sold, but firearms must not be sold.
As for the development of firearms, let alone that.
The craftsmen responsible for the research and development of firearms on both sides are the key targets of the country's surveillance.
No matter how much money he paid, he still couldn't call a craftsman to work for them.
And when it comes to firearms, he faces obstacles at every turn.
Xue Yantuo was several levels lower than the Western Turks, so how could he be better than him? How could he have obtained firearms?
When everyone in the venue heard this, their expressions changed drastically.
They and Zhao Youlin themselves had no idea where these Xue Yantuo people's firearms came from.
It doesn't make sense.
How did Xue Yantuo get something that the Western Turks didn’t have?
But if he really knew the truth.
I know that these firearms were given to Xue Yantuo by Li Chengqian.
He was afraid that he would be angry and retreat on the spot.
But now, he doesn't know yet.
He also knew very well that now was not the time to worry about where the firearms came from.
You know, after the battle with Ansa.
Xue Yantuo's soldiers basically cast a huge shadow on firearms, almost to the point of being a shadow of a snake.
Now that they saw that Xue Yantuo had firearms, most people lost their determination to continue fighting.
The eyes of some people looking at Zhao Youlin changed slightly, as if they were going to ask Zhao Youlin to withdraw his troops at the next moment.
And Zhao Youlin also knew it very well.
If he doesn't want to collapse across the board, he must make a decision as soon as possible.
But……
It would be easier to say if these people were firearms soldiers in the traditional sense.
He could completely imitate Li Chengqian's original tactics and use light cavalry to disintegrate the opponent's firearms.
But these people are not firearms soldiers in the traditional sense.
They have firearms, but they are cavalry.
It seems impossible to use light cavalry to resolve their tactics.
Zhao Youlin pursed his lips, looked up at the person who delivered the message, and asked: "How are the soldiers of the Iron Gate Department doing now? Where are they?"
The messenger hurriedly said: "After discovering that we were outmatched, the second son of Tiemen Khan led his team to fight with his life, and finally led us back to the central part of Fang'erjin Mountain."
"It will be good when you come back, it will be good when you come back."
Zhao Youlin took a deep breath and paced back and forth in place.
After a moment, he seemed to have thought of something. He looked directly at the person beside him and said, "Where has the Tang Dynasty advanced now?" Zhao Youlin looked at the soldiers in front of him with an incomprehensible expression.
After a while, he came to his senses and immediately stood up and said to the soldier: "What's going on? Tell me clearly!"
"Yes, it's Fang'er Jinshan."
