Yimang summoned his trusted aides and ordered: "Take my seal and go to meet the two princes Tu Lisi and Bazhuo, and order them to lead the army to Longcheng. We will join forces to fight against the Tang army. Tell them,
Father Khan has passed on the position of Great Khan to me, but for the future of Xue Yantuo, we brothers must unite sincerely, so I am willing to hand over the position of Great Khan and obey the orders of both of them!"
"Khan, no!"
The confidants hurriedly dissuaded him.
Yimang waved his hand and sighed: "I have made up my mind, no need to say more! Let's do it quickly. When I lead my people to Dragon City, I will see the armies of the two princes coming to join forces!"
"...Here!"
The confidant did not dare to persuade him any more, but before leaving, he gave the official Tizhen a fierce look, thinking that this old guy had given the Khan a bad idea...
*****
The Tang army pursued Xue Yantuo's fleeing soldiers all the way and rushed towards Xue Yantuo's tooth tent at the foot of Yu Dujun's mountain.
Xue Rengui took the lead.
Along the way, Xue Yantuo's scattered troops tried to stop the Tang army's pursuit, but the number was too small and scattered, and they had already been frightened by the earth-shattering bombing in Zhao Xin's city. Xue Rengui tried to stop him several times, but they were all blocked by Xue Rengui.
Lead the army to break through.
Although Xue Yantuo's army grew up in Mobei and had geographical advantages, it was extremely cold and freezing at the moment, and the ice and snow on the road made it extremely difficult to move. After the horseshoes were injured, they lost mobility. The Tang army generally wore horseshoes,
Grinding ice and snow as if walking on flat ground, he pursued and killed all the way without stopping, until Xue Yantuo's troops were defeated, wolves ran like wolves, pigs and rats ran away with their heads in their arms, corpses were everywhere, and there were countless casualties.
Xue Rengui knew that he could not give Xue Yantuo a chance to regroup. Even though he knew that a blizzard was coming, he pursued him relentlessly and kept ordering the army to speed up and speed up.
The peaks of Yudujun Mountain that reach straight into the clouds stand right in front of you. The continuous ridges stretch across the horizon. The patches of white felt tents at the foot of the mountain are like girls who have been washed one by one, waiting for men like wolves and tigers to go up and ravage and toss them.
, Tang Jun all became red-eyed and tried their best to increase their horse speed to the limit!
There is Xue Yantuo's tooth tent!
That's where Le Shi Yanran is!
There, there is an unparalleled miraculous skill at your fingertips!
Heading all the way north, we reached the heart of Mobei. The home of the Hu tribe was right in front of us. Who could suppress their excitement?
As long as he rushes forward, slaughters Xue Yantuo's already collapsed troops, and rides on Xue Yantuo's tent, this great achievement will be achieved!
Without Xue Rengui's further mobilization, 20,000 cavalrymen launched a mad charge towards Xue Yantuo's tent on the ice and snow!
By the Anhou River, Xue Yantuo organized a final blockade, and the two armies met.
This time, Xue Yantuo's army learned the lesson. Under the command of Yimang, they fought and retreated. Whenever the Tang army formed a formation and planned to use firearms to inflict large-scale casualties on the enemy, Xue Yantuo's army quickly retreated. When the Tang army mounted their horses, they began to charge and pursue them.
They turned around and ran away again.
The casualties were inevitable, but relying on this guerrilla warfare style, they were able to hold off the Tang army, buying a lot of space and time for the tribesmen to withdraw.
Two days had passed when the Tang army broke through Xue Yantuo's tent and burned all the supplies that the Xue Yantuo people had no time to evacuate.
The blizzard that had been brewing finally fell.
The howling north wind cuts the surface like a knife, and the snowflakes mixed with goose feathers fly freely between the sky and the earth, and the sky and the earth are vast.
The Tang army had to stop the pursuit and set up camp in Xue Yantuo's tent to rest and recuperate on the spot.
Xue Yantuo's army quickly left the battlefield and retreated toward Longcheng at the foot of Langjuxu Mountain in the northeast.
After conquering Xue Yantuo's tent, all the Tang troops were extremely excited. Even though the wind, snow and cold were raging, their morale was still high!
One day later, Fang Jun and Xue Wanche arrived at Yudujun Mountain.
In the afternoon of that day, Fang Jun led Xue Rengui and others, following the lead of the captured old herdsmen, and braved the wind and snow to climb a peak of Yudujun Mountain.
The wind and snow were raging on the top of the mountain, and finally, on a stone wall, I found the place where Dou Xian had died to atone for his sins and had laid a stone to remember his merits after defeating the Huns.
"In the autumn and seventh month of the first year of Yongyuan, there was an uncle of the Han Yuan Dynasty who called Dou Xian, the cavalry general, and Yinliang Shengming, who ascended the Yi royal family and accepted him in Dalu to defend the Qing Dynasty and Jixi!"
"Then he passed Zhuoxie, crossed Anhou, rode Yanran, crept into the area of Dun, and burned Laoshang's Longting!"
"The upper one is to hold the emperor high, and the literary indignation is maintained, and the mysterious spirit of the ancestors is illuminated; the lower one is to stabilize the descendants, expand the realm, and revitalize the heavenly voice of the great Han Dynasty!"
"Master Shuo came to conquer the desolate descendants, suppressed the fierce and cruel people, and intercepted the overseas countries. He conquered the land and established the boundaries, enshrined the gods and built ridges, and Emperor Xi carried them to inspire the world!"
Feng Yanran Mountain Inscription!
When the slightly blurry writing on the stone wall appeared in front of everyone, no one could remain calm, and everyone raised their arms and cheered, soaring into the sky!
Fang Jun also has a wonderful feeling of stepping into history.
Six hundred years ago, Dou Xian sent someone to assassinate Liu Chang, the favored minister of the Queen Mother, and put the blame on Cai Lun. He was found guilty and imprisoned in the palace. He asked to attack the Northern Huns and redeem his death with merit. It happened that the Southern Xiongnu Chanyu asked for troops, so he He paid homage to the General of Chariots and Cavalry, with Jin Wu Geng Bing as his deputy, and combined forces with 30,000 soldiers and horses of the Southern Xiongnu, Wuhuan, Qiang and Hu to join forces at Zhuoxie Mountain.
They defeated the Xiongnu in Jiluo Mountain, wiping out thirteen thousand enemies and taking countless prisoners.
Later he climbed the mountain and carved stones to record his merits.
His achievements are comparable to those of Huo Qubing, who was granted the title of Xu Xu, and is known as the highest achievement in the Han Dynasty for ascending to the throne!
Two thousand years later, this mountain wall that had long been lost in historical data was finally discovered by the world. Although the words on it had become blurred and difficult to read due to two thousand years of wind and rain erosion, they still stirred up every Chinese descendant. The pride and ambition in my heart!
That dusty history has long become the eternal pride in the hearts of the Han nation!
Xue Rengui stepped forward and said beside Fang Jun: "We are sweeping across Mobei under the leadership of the commander-in-chief. Instead of letting our ancestors focus on the beauty before us, why not imitate our ancestors and write on the side of this "Feng Yanran Mountain Inscription"? "Writing today's events by carving a stone can be a good story for future generations!"
Soldiers admire military merit, and they also admire a reputation that will last forever.
Now we are following the footsteps of our ancestors to climb this mountain again and destroy Xue Yantuo. If we can leave an article like "Feng Yanran Mountain Inscription" on the stone, it will naturally be famous for thousands of years and shine brightly in history!
Fang Jun shook his head slightly: "Although Dou Xian's achievements can be praised by future generations, his domineering behavior after that should be taken as a lesson. We left the fortress this time and swept across Mobei. I don't know how many people in the court were jealous. In your heart, you should be cautious in your words and deeds, and not be too ostentatious."
Xue Rengui was slightly startled, but he didn't think so much. It was just that he had the eternal meritorious service of "Slaying Shi Yanran" in his hands, so he could not help but feel proud for a moment.
After hearing Fang Jun's words, I immediately realized something.
Dou Xian pacified the Xiongnu and restrained Shi Yanran, which made them famous. He thought he had made great contributions to the Han Dynasty and became more domineering and wanton.
So Geng Kui and Ren Shang were the minions, Deng Die and Guo Huang were the confidants, and Ban Gu and Fu Yi all set up shogunate offices to control the affairs of the state and occupy important positions. For a time, many officials such as governors and guards came out of their homes.
.Shang Shu's servants shot Zhi Shou and Le Hui committed suicide one after another because they violated Dou Xian's wishes.
The courtiers were frightened and looked to the wind to carry out the decree.
His party members Deng Die, Deng Lei, Guo Ju, and Guo Huang colluded with each other, and some even went in and out of the harem. Fortunately, the Queen Mother wanted to rebel.
Emperor He of the Han Dynasty lured him into the palace, captured him, confiscated his general's seal and ribbon, changed his title to Champion Marquis, and then forced him to commit suicide...
There is no doubt about Dou Xian's achievements, but after he established his career, he did not know how to restrain himself but became arrogant and domineering, and eventually died. How could Fang Jun not be alerted?
By rejecting Xue Rengui's request, you are also using these repressive methods to tell these arrogant generals that merit can make you a wife and a son, and you can rise to the top, but if you blindly rely on military merit without restraint, no matter how great the merit is, you will not be able to protect you.
life!
Xue Wanche was dissatisfied with Fang Jun's caution, but since he had been out in the fortress for a series of battles and had no merit, he naturally had no right to speak at this time and could only act in a hurry.
Fang Jun immediately ordered more than ten cavalrymen to return to Zhao Xincheng in the wind and snow with the battle report, then went all the way south to the Great Wall and returned to Chang'an to deliver the victory report.
All the troops camped at the foot of Yudujun Mountain to rest and take shelter from the wind and snow.
Three days later, when the wind and snow stopped, the Tang army, which had recharged its strength, was divided into several groups and attacked separately, wiping out the scattered Hu tribes entrenched around Xue Yantuo's tent one by one. Those who surrendered were incorporated into the army.
, led the Tang army to kill everywhere, and all those who resisted were executed.
For a time, when the banner of the Tang army was seen from a distance in Mobei, all the Hu tribes would look forward to the wind and descend. The army attacked everywhere, killing countless people. The troops retreated to the Dragon City at the foot of Langjuxu Mountain and on the bank of Yuwu River!
Xue Yantuo's last remnant army is entrenched here, intending to rely on the geographical advantage to make a last stand...
