Chapter 231 You can't kill me, I'm a third-rank member of the court
"Gather our troops, charge forward, and annihilate this Thule army."
Su Lu ordered.
The baggage camp and the civilian men gathered together and marched out, while the guards held back and slowly moved forward.
The performance of the peasants was very poor, and there was nothing that could be done about it. They usually led packhorses to transport grain and trade, and treated the packhorses as precious as treasures. Now, in order to rush on the road, they were riding on packhorses, and they felt a little uncomfortable all over.
However, under Lao Fan's whip and Cao Hua's soft words of comfort, the peasants gritted their teeth and persisted, and the marching speed became faster and faster.
The team rushed behind a slope and caught up with Liang Pu and Li Qing.
Liang Pu introduced the situation to Su Lu:
Ah, "This Thule army has tens of thousands of people, and the Tiansheng army led by General He has less than a thousand people. We have to take action quickly, otherwise we may not be able to save General He."
Su Lu frowned slightly: "The commander of the army shouldn't be General He, right?"
Liang Pu was stunned for a moment and didn't understand what Su Lu meant. How could it be that the commander of the army was not General He? This was the Tiansheng Army, almost General He's personal army.
Li Qing spoke: "General Xiao should be leading the army. This kind of fighting style is the only one among the generals in the government and the public who has such a style."
Su Lu nodded, this is the right way. If it happens, I'm afraid it won't be a fight with Thule, but if you don't offend me, I won't offend you, and we'll go our separate ways.
"Xu Feng, Su Ping, gather troops, and soldiers with swords and shields will open the way."
"After Fan Cai, take your baggage camp and civilians with you and hold them back. I will personally lead the army and defeat this Thule army."
Su Lu ordered, straightened his clothes and armor, stood up, and prepared to fight.
Su Ping made a tiger leap and shouted to gather his troops.
Xu Feng took the lead and mobilized all his troops. Following Su Lu's method, he mobilized his sword and shield troops in front.
"kill"
Su Lu waved his sword.
Su Ping shouted and called to his guards, leaping out and rushing down the hillside.
Xu Feng slapped the war horse, and the horse neighed and charged down the mountain. The black and red guards were like a black torrent pouring down from the mountain peak in the dark night.
The Thule army that was besieging Tiansheng's army was caught off guard and was instantly beaten and knocked off their backs. The surrounding cavalry fell to the ground like chopped straw.
Thule's originally secure victory suddenly became in danger.
"Su Hou, you and I will join forces, encircle the enemy inside and outside, and destroy this Tule brat."
Xiao Cong's voice came from the encirclement.
The old general seemed to be injured, his voice was hoarse, and his heroic voice was completely out of tune.
"Kill, they only have five thousand soldiers, Thule will win."
Thule, the leading general, had a sharp eye and instantly saw that the Han army was insufficient in number. He adjusted his troops and detached an army to face the Han army that was attacking the formation.
"You don't even have five thousand people, but you still dare to challenge me. Uchar Khan, I'll give you half a cup of tea. You must annihilate this Han army. Luo Benshan, you go and deal with the Han army general. If you want to live,
of."
The two generals agreed loudly and turned around to lead the troops.
After a while, Uchar Khan almost rolled over, with blood all over his body and face. He rolled off the saddle and hugged General Thule's horse head.
"Sir Bo'erzhi, the Han army is too strong, let's withdraw."
General Bol of Thule just looked at Uqar Khan with an annoyed look on his face. Your grandson led the troops to block the approaching Han army, but his formation was penetrated by a single encounter.
What a damn useless snack!
"Go away, I will lead the troops to meet him."
Bor was furious, kicked Uqar Khan down, and wanted to lead his troops to block Su's way.
Ucharhan shouted: "Everyone, please stay away and protect me."
A group of people swarmed up and hugged the baby.
Ucharhan wiped off the blood stains on his face, turned around and ordered: "Let's go, take the adults away. If something happens to the adults, you don't need to take action, someone will make sure you die."
"I'm here to stop them. You go and inform the chief military officer that the Han army is here and ask him to send all his troops to help."
A Fu Li whispered: "The great Fu Shi doesn't like Sir Bo'erzhi. I'm afraid he will only send some rotten fish and shrimps here."
Wuqar Khan rolled his eyes, thinking that he was inspecting the king's account in the right chamber, and heard what the Han prince said to the inspector in the right chamber, and an idea came to him.
"Just say that the Princess of the Han Army is here, and she will definitely come back."
Bo'er kicked Ucharhan across two guards: "You bitch, where is the princess of the Han army? Why didn't I see it?"
The surrounding guards rushed down like a tsunami, and the tens of thousands of Tule troops were penetrated, and the soldiers fled and began to join the battle.
The centurion of Fuli roared and said: "My lord, the military situation is urgent, and my subordinates have offended me. Sons, please take your lord away."
Bo'er was only carried by a few Fu Li, and he retreated backwards almost without touching the ground, feeling only resentment in his heart.
Why is this Han army so different from the previous Han armies? The attack was like a thunderbolt, and Uchar Khan, a loser, was broken up in the military formation in just one encounter.
When they reached the nearby hill, they were able to take over the entire scene. Bo'er only slapped the centurion who was carrying him: "Put me down, it's safe here."
On the battlefield, the Han army had broken the Thule army's formation. Tens of thousands of Thule soldiers were killed and more than a thousand were dispersed. The remaining Thule soldiers, under Uchar Khan's intentional contraction, began to gather to one side and retreat in an orderly manner.
Xiao Cong had been rescued. The old general looked pale and had a thick white cloth tied around his waist. When he saw Su Lu, he hurried over.
"Good boy, with six thousand miscellaneous cards against Thule's nine thousand, he retreated from Thule in one rush. I really belong to you."
There were constant wars and arrows flying around, but Xiao Cong was talking and laughing calmly, his face unchanged, well, mainly white.
Su Lu glanced at the Tiansheng Army who was fighting with the Thule Army: "General, these are soldiers under He Geng's command. How did they get into your hands?"
Xiao Cong's face darkened when he heard this, and he pointed at the small slope where he was temporarily hiding.
"Bring me He Geng."
After a while, several guards escorted He Geng and Zhang Ze over. The two were knocked out of their pockets, their faces covered with blood, and they stumbled over.
Seeing Su Lu, He Geng said loudly: "Su Hou, Xiao Cong is rebelling and wants to murder the princess. You must be careful and beware of Xiao Cong sneaking up on you."
Su Lu suddenly raised the long knife in his hand.
Xiao Cong's pupils shrank, he couldn't help but take two steps back, pulled the wound on his waist, and took a breath of cold air. He was about to explain a few words to Su Lu, when he saw Su Lu passing him and walking towards He Geng.
"Su Lu, please don't mess around. I am a third-rank official of the imperial court. If you kill me, Concubine Zhang will definitely not let you go. Think about your own future."
When He Geng saw that Su Lu had seen through him, he didn't make excuses anymore and just spoke coldly.
A smile appeared on Xiao Cong's face. He had underestimated Su Hou. How could Su Hou, who was invincible in the military formation, not be able to see through He Geng's little conspiracy.
Su Lu pointed the long knife at He Geng's neck: "Why do you want Zhang Zexian to camp? There are 30,000 guards and tens of thousands of civilians here. Does the dispute in the court have to involve them?"
The fighting around them has stopped, Uchar Khan's Thule soldiers have withdrawn, and the exhausted guards were already lying on the ground. After hearing Su Lu's words, they all stood up and looked at He.
ridge.
He Geng sneered: "It's just tens of thousands of soldiers and civilians. If Li Qing dies, everything will be worth it."
"Why, Su Hou didn't rescue the princess? That's such a pity. Su Hou should lead his troops back, and maybe he can find the princess's body so that the three provinces can explain to His Majesty."
Su Lu shook his head: "I didn't expect you to be such a person. That you were the one who leaked the military information after colluding with Tule and losing the camp?"
He Geng laughed loudly: "Suhou, you underestimate me. How could I do such a thing? General Zhang Ze admires the power of Prince Li Xun, so he revealed the military information of the camp. What does it have to do with me?"
"Shua"
Su Lu pulled the long knife over, and Zhang Ze's head flew up into the sky. His eyes were round, as if he couldn't believe that Su Lu would directly use the knife without even asking.
The blade turned and was placed on He Geng's neck.
He Geng looked at Su Lu coldly, with a lot of trembling in his voice:
"Su Lu, you can't kill me. I am a third-rank official of the imperial court. If you kill me, the imperial court will not let you go. The three provinces will not let you go. Your Majesty... Zhang Guifei will not let you go."
