Chapter 590: Twilight Out of the Valley

The next battle is the pursuit, and it is said that the poor Kou Mo chases, but when it should be divided, just like now, when there is only one way, the more fierce the pursuit, the greater the enemy, and the better their results.

Li Jing was not soft at this time, and on the premise of controlling casualties, no one could say anything about expanding his military exploits, and for the generals, they had to consider not only the battle situation, but also the situation.

After two battles against the railroad, it was theoretically difficult for Tiele to fight a third battle, and to ensure that they could not prevent the third battle, it was necessary to make them unable to meet the conditions at this time.

Li Jing led people to pursue all the way, testing the strength of the cavalry.

Twilight broke out of the encirclement, thinking they had managed to get out of danger, but it wasn't what they thought it would be.

"General, the enemy is still pursuing." The generals around him reported.

Needless to say, the pursuers behind him were always there, and Twilight knew very well that he was asking him to make up his mind, but what could he do.

"Give the order to go down and defend in the valley." Twilight Road.

"General, the valley is a place of death, and if the enemy besieges us, we will definitely die." The subordinate general said.

"What are you afraid of, you didn't see that they didn't carry so much food at all, we just had to defend them when we entered the valley, and we would definitely leave when their food was consumed." Twilight Road.

"The general is wise."

At this time, the generals had not forgotten to slip their beards.

Twilight thinks his plan is very good, but he is always a little apprehensive, always feeling as if he is missing something, but he can't think of it.

Anyway, this is the situation now, if they continue to run for the last 30,000 or so, they may not be able to leave alive, although entering the valley is a dead place, but it is also a dead place for the enemy.

He relied on familiarity with the terrain, and even when they entered the valley, they could slowly find the exit, but it might take a long time, but at least there was no way.

Li Jing saw that the Tiele cavalry had changed direction, and immediately said to the guards beside him, "Bring me the map." ”

The situation here has long been clearly understood by the scouts, and they took out the map to check it, and Li Jing frowned first The location of the valley has been investigated by the scouts.

At that time, Li Jing was still thinking about whether to make an ambush here, and finally gave up mainly because the terrain here was not suitable for cavalry, and he now understood the intentions of General Tiele.

The advantage of the Tiele cavalry, because they know the terrain, the local horses are more adapted to this environment, so fighting in the valley is their advantage, and the valley is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and the last thing they can do is to defend it to the death.

Even so, I am afraid that the enemy is fighting with the idea of defense, and one cannot get in and the other does not want to come out, which can only be the result of a stalemate.

More critical is logistical replenishment.

"What should Li do now when he joins the army?" Pei Yuantong came over and asked.

"They want to spend money with us, and count the food control rations." Li Jing said.

Being able to see the enemy's deployment so quickly, Pei Yuantong admired Li Jing's ability very much, anyway, he didn't understand this, just follow the order.

The people of Twilight have seen that the vanguard is counting the food, and the food is all unified, and it is clear at a glance what the iron pot can do.

When he returned to the army, the scout Tiele spoke in detail.

"General, I saw with my own eyes, they gathered all the grain, and only a small amount of rice was put in the pot, which was not enough for 100,000 people to feed their hunger."

Although he didn't believe it when he heard it, he still instructed his men to gather all the food on the soldiers, and the next battle was not about combat power or willpower.

They also live and cook in the pot, there is very little food in the pot but there is enough water, they all live on horseback, and the horses carry enough water bladders, which is their habit.

Even if they bring a lot of water, they won't waste it easily.

In this way, the two sides were all safe after the scout was tempted, one didn't want to go out, and the other wanted to come in but couldn't get in, so it was a stalemate.

The Tieler scouts were trying to find a way out, and if they continued to move into the valley, they would lose the advantage of their defense, and if they were lost in the valley, it would be far worse than facing their pursuers.

After three days passed, the food of the Tiele cavalry became less and less, and even if they filled their stomachs with soup, there was no way to make people not weak, and the morale of the soldiers was depressed.

The Tiele scouts came again to check on the vanguards, and saw that although they still had some food in their iron pots, they still had some food, much better than what they had eaten.

"What about the Vanguard?" When the scout returned, he was questioned by Twilight.

The scout explained the situation, and Yi Dusk knew in his heart, according to this, it seems that the vanguard will be defeated in a few days, this inference is because the number of vanguard soldiers is huge, don't underestimate this.

In fact, the more people there are, the faster the food is consumed, and if you only drink water every day, then you will not have the strength to defeat before others.

Take the millions of soldiers and horses of the Sui State as an example, attacking Goryeo is losing to logistics and supplies, and to put it bluntly, it is losing to a large number of people, but it is different when a small number of people encounter this situation.

It's easy not to talk about the limited amount of food to distribute, and there will be less conflict when you're hungry.

That's what Twilight was thinking.

After another three days, the Tiele cavalry had been without food for two days, and they had decided to attack the horses, but they also knew that this was not a good solution.

Because of the poison, even if you insist, you can't last long, and besides, the war horse is combat effectiveness, and you can't continue to fight without them, but Yi Du has such thoughts but doesn't do it.

He was waiting for the vanguard to hold on.

The rice carried by Li Jing here is exhausted, and the situation of the soldiers is also listless, these are very real, which makes people understand at a glance.

After Twilight came to check on the situation himself, he felt that the opportunity had come, and now he only needed to hold out for two more days, and the enemy would leave.

Li Jing didn't wait two days to get acquainted, and when Yi Du came to check, he asked the vanguard to pack up the sachet and leave.

"General, they're gone, and we're saved." The scout was a little unbridled with joy, and it was so harsh to Twilight's ears.

"Pass the order, let's go out of the valley." Twilight Road.

In order to be on the safe side, Yi Du first sent 500 cavalry out of the valley and then checked around, but found nothing, and all the Tiele cavalry left the valley.

Twilight was proud of her caution, and it wouldn't take her two or three days to return to the tribe as long as she persevered on the rest of the journey.

After leaving the valley, the Tiele cavalry has been hurrying fast, and now they have to fight for time, even if the horses can't stand it, they can't stop.

"The vanguard is really a rare opponent, and this time when I return to the tribe, I must let the leader send troops again." Yi Du is the main general, and he has never been hit like this in successive battles in the Tiele tribe.
