Chapter One Thousand and Forty-Six

"Kill them all!"

"For all the herders!"

"The steppe will always be the steppe of our Turks, since you want to fight, then fulfill you!"

The roar was earth-shattering. The Western Turkic Khanate and the Northern Courtyard Protectors have maintained relative restraint. Although there are wars every year, the intensity and intensity of the wars are not too great.

This time, the Beiting Protector actually left his base and went deep into the Turkic steppe, but only 100,000 soldiers and horses dared to sweep the herdsmen's habitat with the most fertile water and grass on the Turkic steppe.

Even Shabala Khan was enraged by An Sishun's arrogance and ambition, and directly ordered the Western Turkic Khanate to suppress the Turkic army in the south, and vigorously pressed on it, encircling and suppressing An Sishun.

"Whew!"

The vast Western Turkic Iron Cavalry, part of which rushed towards the Beiting Protector from the front, and the other part quickly split into two, outflanking from the two wings of the Beiting Protector, and directly circling to the rear of the Beiting Protector.

This is already a typical tactic of the Western Turkic Khanate, as long as the Beiting Du guards deep into the steppe, they will find a way to attack from their backs and attack them unprepared.

"Kill!"

In just a short period of time, the army of the Western Turkic Khanate immediately slammed into the defense line of the Beiting Capital Protector from all directions like a huge wave of 10,000 tons. Countless Tang infantry were knocked out under the impact of the iron cavalry.

But almost at the same time, all the warriors of the Beiting Prefecture also reacted. Axemen, spearmen, archers, iron horsemen...... At that moment, the steel roared, and countless soldiers fought violently together, clanging, cold light flickered, and the sound of gold and iron clashing was endless.

"An Sishun, you are too conceited! I want to see how your 100,000 army can deal with my 180,000 iron horsemen?!"

Just behind the army, a figure stood there like a mountain. His eyes were shining, and there was a powerful deterrent between his gestures, and that huge aura was simply suffocating.

General Sanya!

One of the top three generals of the entire Western Turkic Khanate, his gaze was sharp, and his status was not in the slightest below Du Wusili. Du Wu Sili was transferred to the northwest to participate in the Battle of Talas, and the general of Sanmi was transferred to the southern part of the Turkic steppe by Shabala Khan to deal with the Tang Dynasty/army under the command of An Sishun, the capital of Beiting.

It's not the first time that Ninth Degree Raider has played against An Sishun, and the two sides are already very familiar. Although I don't understand why a general like An Sishun would leave the base without permission and venture deep into the Turkic steppe, there is no doubt that this is an excellent opportunity to completely annihilate the Beiting Protectorate.

Moreover, the Ninth Degree of Coverage had sent scouts to investigate in advance, and there were no reinforcements at all in An Sishun's rear.

- This is a self-defeating road!

"Boom!"

In the distance, just when the Western Turkic Iron Cavalry suppressed the army of the Northern Courtyard Protectorate with an absolute advantage, a sudden change abruptly appeared, and in the dark, a roar sounded, mixed with bursts of voices, and even before the ninth degree of the Protectorate could react, there were bursts of screams in his ears. In the void, a vague black shadow flashed, and seven or eight Western Turkic warriors who were lining up in a straight line and were charging in a column, suddenly, bursts of blood bloomed on their chests, and they immediately fell from their horses.

"Datang crossbow!"

The Ninth Degree of Covering Luo was shocked in his heart, and he instantly recognized it, and an extremely bad feeling rose sharply.

He carefully investigated, An Sishun's team did not have many Tang crossbows at all, and it was impossible for them to shoot so accurately, which was by no means the style of the Beiting Protector.

However, in the next moment, something happened that made the heart of the Nine Degrees of Covering's heart tremble.

In the center of the Beiting Capital Protector Army's military formation, the "grain trucks" suddenly untied the curtains covering them, but what was revealed was not the imaginary bags of military rations, but the world-famous war machines, Datang crossbows!

"Launch!"

In the center of these crossbows, a young general with a grim expression swung down his Uzi steel long sword. In an instant, 5,000 Datang crossbows were launched in unison, booming, and 5,000 crossbow arrows burst out like a storm, and at that moment, time seemed to stand still. And what happened in the next moment was enough to send chills through the hearts of the 180,000 Western Turkic Iron Horsemen, like falling into an ice cellar.

"Boom, boom!"

Just a wave of shooting, tens of thousands of Western Turkic iron cavalry immediately fell in unison, these crossbow soldiers did not know how much they aimed, and the angle taken was the most dense place for the Western Turkic iron cavalry. This wave of crossbow arrows was fired, each of which hit the bodies of at least three Western Turkic iron horsemen, and in front of these sharp crossbow arrows, even the experienced Western Turk iron horsemen fell down like defeated grass.

Xi Yuyu, when nearly 20,000 Western Turkic iron horsemen fell from their horses, in an instant, the entire battlefield was dead silent, and a Western Turkic iron horseman opened his eyes wide, and even his breathing was about to stop.

"Put!"

Without the slightest hesitation, just when everyone was shocked by the power of the ballista strafing, the young general with a cold face immediately launched a second wave of attacks without hesitation. Only to hear a roar, the second wave of arrows rained out again. Five thousand crossbow arrows, each like the scythe of death, fiercely harvested the Western Turkic iron cavalry on the opposite side.

"Kill them!"

A Western Turkic horseman tried to charge the ballista troops, but before they could get closer, they were greeted by a rain of death. In front of the mysteriously appearing ballista troops, all the Turkic iron horsemen looked weak.

"Withdraw!"

The Ninth Degree of Coverage shouted urgently, shocked and angry. He recognized this ballista unit disguised as a team of grain trucks, and in the letter from Du Wusili to Shabaluo Khan, he had mentioned that a new ballista unit had appeared in Datang, with extremely high shooting accuracy, extremely fast rate of fire, and very terrifying power.

"This must be the army in the west of the moraine!"

It is absolutely impossible for the Talus Tang Ballista force mentioned in the Duwusli letter to appear here. Although it is not clear why there is an additional ballista force of even larger scale, it is certain that this must be inextricably related to the Dai Duhu called Wang Chong in the west of the city.

"Everyone, retreat!"

The thunderous shouts of the ninth degree resounded throughout the battlefield. The sound was still wafting in the void, and the Nine Degrees of Coverage had already jumped out of the horse, like an eagle falcon, and flew straight into the sky above the Tang Dynasty/army.

"Buzz!"

The void was full of energy, like thousands of pythons, wrapped around the body of the Nine Degrees of Cover. In an instant, the qi changed, bursting out with an astonishing light that was even more dazzling than the sun, and from a distance, the ninth degree of coverage at this moment was like a huge comet suspended in the void, and the dazzling light completely enveloped him, making it impossible to distinguish his figure at all. And the aura that erupted from the Ninth Degree of Covering Luo also exploded more than ten times in an instant, and the terrifying aura made people feel as if a catastrophe was coming.

Comet descends from the sky!

This is one of the tricks of the Ninth Degree Covering the entire Turkic steppe, with its own terrifying power and special Gang Qi properties, the Ninth Degree Covering can violently crash from the sky like a comet, causing an earth-shattering explosion in the enemy camp.

This Datang ballista force, because it is disguised as a grain truck for Datang logistics supplies, is relatively too concentrated, and with the strength of the top-level generals covering the ninth degree, as long as it strikes, it is definitely enough to severely damage this strange ballista force.

"Hahaha, the ninth degree of Luo, I only found out at this time, don't you think it's too late?"

At this moment, a burst of laughter came. Under the huge black handsome banner of the Beiting Metropolitan Protectorate, An Sishun slapped the war horse violently, and the whole person burst out like an arrow from the string.

In the blink of an eye, he immediately hit the Ninth Degree of Overhaul in mid-air, Rao is one of the top three imperial generals of the Western Turkic Khanate, but in the face of An Sishun's level, he had to put away the idea of using a comet to severely damage this ballista force.

"An Sishun, you are so cunning!"

The Nine Degrees of Covering Luo slashed out violently, and the momentum of that sword was mighty, and it was also mixed with the anger in his heart.

It was by no means the first time that General Sanmi had fought with An Sishun, but this time the confrontation really caught him by surprise. An Sishun actually used this trick of stealing the sky and changing the day, using himself as bait and secretly plotting against him once, which is by no means An Sishun's style. Nine times overwhelmed Luo Luo was caught off guard, and the result of this battle can be imagined.

"Hahaha, nine degrees of covering, thank you for the compliment!"

An Sishun didn't mind and laughed. Without the slightest hesitation, An Sishun's whole body was shocked, and in an instant, a magnificent dazzling sword qi burst out of the air, colliding heavily with the Ninth Degree Covering Luo.

However, this battle is not destined to be as imagined by the Ninth Degree of Relief and An Sishun.

"Shoot!"

A loud shout came from the ground, and the young general with a grim expression swung down his long sword, and seventy or eighty long and indestructible crossbow arrows were immediately shot from all directions towards the Nine Degrees in the air.

"Damn it!"

Seeing these crossbow arrows, the Ninth Degree of Covering Luo became more and more angry in his heart. If it was any other time, even if he was attacked by countless crossbow arrows, he wouldn't care too much, but there was an An Sishun attacking with all his strength in front of him, coupled with these sharp crossbow arrows, even the ninth degree of overturning Luo had to temporarily avoid his edge.

"An Sishun, don't be too complacent, sooner or later one day I will make you Beiting Protector pay the price!"

Nine degrees covered his body, and at the moment of fighting with An Sishun, he quickly fled into the distance.

And behind him, all the Western Turkic iron horsemen also fled for their lives.

"Shoot!"

With that cold voice, five thousand Tang crossbows fired another salvo. Boom, boom, waves of heavy objects falling to the ground were endless, the neighing of war horses, the screams of the crowd, and the shouts of the Tang Dynasty/army chasing and killing in the rear resounded on the battlefield.
