Chapter 478: Discuss the next step
"Everyone, steady, don't panic!"
Under the left and right attacks of the Tang Dynasty soldiers, the Tuyuhun generals wanted to stabilize the morale of the army, but no matter how they shouted, it had no effect at all.
"Kill me!"
Seeing that the time was ripe, Wei Chigong personally led the army to rush over.
"King, Tuyuhun can't be saved!"
One of the generals wailed.
"God really doesn't bless me!"
Fu Yun looked up to the sky and sighed.
The defeat was so fast that he didn't even react.
In desperation, he could only lead his army to flee to the west to kill, and only when the troops there were weak could he break through.
Fu Yun took the remaining forty or fifty thousand people all the way for more than 100 miles, and after finding that no one in Datang chased him, he stopped repairing!
"I really didn't expect Datang to be so powerful!"
After this night's tossing, Fu Yun had already lost the spirit of the past, and said to Murong Shun regretfully: "I really regret being a father, why didn't I listen to your advice in the first place!" ”
"Father, don't worry, we have now reached the plateau, it is impossible for the army of the Tang Dynasty to fight here, we can rest and recuperate!"
Looking at his father, who was obviously much older, Murong Shun could only comfort.
"Datang is so powerful now, I'm afraid I can't wait for the day when they decline, and this Tuyuhun will be handed over to you in the future!"
After this blow, Fu Yun now looks like an old man on the verge of death.
As the initiator of this defeat, Tianzhu was restless at this time, worried that after Murong Shun ascended the throne, he would be the first to eradicate himself.
……
"General, the mutton is stewed!"
In the city of King Tuyuhun, a general walked to Yu Chigong's big tent with mutton.
After returning from the victory, Wei Chigong ordered the sheep to be killed to celebrate, and discussed the next battle plan!
"Bring it up!"
Li Daozong waved his hand at the generals.
After tossing for a long time, he was already hungry.
"How's the count? How many casualties did we have this time? ”
Wei Chigong asked.
Although there was the help of artillery and Lalei, it was also a knife and gun, and it was impossible to avoid casualties.
"Alas......! Nearly 200 people died, 500 were seriously injured, and more than 800 were lightly injured! ”
Li Daozong sighed deeply and reported the number.
"Alas, there are so many casualties!"
Wei Chigong shook his head helplessly.
This is still caused by the deterrence of artillery, and without the help of artillery and ground buds, the casualties will be even greater!
"There's no way, the artillery is not suitable for melee attacks, and when I go back, I have to give the emperor to the emperor and let the horse master develop a thermal weapon suitable for melee attacks!"
One of the generals tore off a piece of mutton and stuffed it into his mouth, chewing it as he spoke.
"Yes, if you can have such a weapon, the casualties will be reduced in the future!"
Li Daozong nodded approvingly.
"Let's talk about this matter later, let's discuss what to do next!"
Although Wei Chigong is usually very arrogant, he is by no means ambiguous in such a major event as marching and fighting.
"Now that Fu Yun has fled to the plateau, it's really not easy to do!"
Li Daozong also began to chew the mutton.
"Before setting out on the expedition, the horse gave a suggestion, saying that if Fu Yun escaped with his troops, he could use a strategy to let his various units disintegrate on their own!"
Wei Chigong's eyes suddenly lit up, and he thought of something.
"What's the strategy?"
Hearing that it was the idea of the horse, Li Daozong was also immediately interested.
That guy has the most ghost ideas, and he can't take down Tuyuhun without spending a single soldier!
"Didn't we capture some prisoners? You can put them all back, and then tell them that as long as they are willing to surrender to Datang, Datang will not only not kill them, but will also buy their furs at a high price, so that they can also live a rich life! ”
Before Wei Chigong left, Zhao Yin told him the strategy.
"What a great idea! When they see the strength of Datang now, they will definitely yearn for it! ”
"Tuyuhun people are born without knowing how to be loyal and benevolent, and once this plan comes out, it will definitely succeed!"
"It's not good, they will personally arrest Fu Yun, haha......!"
Inside the big tent, everyone sitting around eating mutton agreed with this plan.
"Okay, that's it, Zhao Yin's kid is scheming, it's right to believe him, haha!"
Wei Chigong ate a mouth full of oil.
"You big old man, if you don't know how to praise people, don't praise them, if you are scheming, you are scolding!"
Li Daozong glared at him helplessly.
"Hey, it's all the same, it's all the same!"
Wei Chigong pulled up a leg of mutton, waved his hand without blushing and heartbeat.
Early the next morning, Wei Chigong divided the captives into two factions, detained all of Fu Yun's faction, and released the others back, and told them that as long as they were willing to surrender to Tang, the Tang Dynasty would buy their cattle, sheep and horses at a high price!
"Great, we can finally go back!"
After leaving the Tuyuhun King City, seeing that no one was following, these Tuyuhun people finally breathed a sigh of relief.
When they rushed to the plateau and joined the tribes, they brought the words of the Tang Dynasty to them, and the dissatisfaction instantly surged up.
"Father, I notice that something is not quite right with the tribes!"
Murong Shun went out and walked around, and found that those leaders were looking at him with a trace of anger in their eyes.
"We lost the battle and fled to this bitter cold place, and it is normal for them to be a little dissatisfied!"
Fu Yun lay on the bed and said listlessly.
"Then shall we go and appease them!"
Now is an extraordinary period, and if there is an internal conflict, the situation will not be easy to clean up.
"King, leave this matter to me!"
Tianzhu took the initiative to ask, but there was obviously a hint of sinister in his eyes.
"Good!"
Fu Yun nodded, completely unaware that danger was approaching step by step.
"We have fallen to this point, this Heavenly Pillar is the culprit, why does Father reuse him?"
After Tianzhu left, Murong Shun turned around and said with resentment.
"This old dog has occupied a high position in Tuyuhun for many years, and he still has some prestige when he speaks, our current situation is not optimistic, it is better not to make extraneous branches, and you can get rid of him when I die!"
Fu Yun looked at Murong Shun in a cold tone.
"Good!"
Murong Shun was very happy.
He has an old feud with Tianzhu, and when he ascends to the throne, the first thing he will do is to kill this old fellow.
However, what they didn't know was that after Tianzhu left the big tent, he did not leave, but hid outside the tent and eavesdropped on the conversation between the two.
"Hmph, you forced me to do this!"
After overhearing the plan of the father and son, Tianzhu shook his hand, turned around and walked away.
……
"Recently, your restless emotional king has found out!"
After calling a dozen clan leaders together, Tianzhu said directly.
"The king must have misunderstood, we are all loyal!"
As soon as his voice fell, the leader of the tribe was stunned, and then hurriedly expressed his loyalty.
"Really...... you?"
Tianzhu raised his eyebrows and asked, obviously not believing their words, and then continued: "I believe you have also heard, Datang released the news that as long as we are willing to surrender, they are willing to buy our fur horses at a high price!" ”
After hearing his words, everyone was startled at first, and then looked at each other, and none of them spoke.
I have to say that the conditions offered by Datang are too tempting, if they have been living in this bitter cold place, it is estimated that even if they do not starve to death, it will be very difficult to live!
