Facts have proved that Li Po is right, and the Turks have few eyes.

In a few words, Ashina Danai, a Turkic who was not stupid, was fooled by Henan Dakou.

He has indeed experienced a lot of wars, and after a little thought, he found some vivid examples from his memory, such as when he was in Shuzhong, the king of Qin led them to ride thousands of horses, and tens of thousands of people were killed and fled in all directions.

When fighting Xue Rengao in the northwest, Murong Luo led 500 cavalry to rush into Xue Rengao's army of more than 200,000 people, killed in front of Xue Rengao, and cut down Xue Rengao's battle flag with a knife, and Xue Rengao fled in embarrassment.

With his personal experience of the war as a reference, Ashina Danai's heart warmed up all of a sudden, military merit is what he values the most, many people have demonstrated to him, as long as there are more and more military merits, there will be more and more soldiers, then the closer it will be to go back and cut off the head of the Khan.

This tilted his head and thought about it carefully, he didn't offend anyone in Tongguan, just a Sang Xianhe always found fault with him, and estimated the relationship between the sneak attack on Sang Xianhe's camp back then.

Since he has not offended Zhang Shigui, I think he will not deliberately let a good man from the grassland to send him to death, this is the logic of the Turks, not after a long time in the Sui region.

After thinking about this, he hammered the breastplate and said: "The surname Ashina, there is no cowardly person, let's kill it together." ”

Zhang Shigui laughed, instigated the war horse, and roared loudly before coming to the military column, "My name is Zhang Shigui, remember this name, because after this battle, it will be famous all over the world......"

There were some rude men's laughter in the military columns, arrogant guys are not liked, and the exploits of Kansai men are never spoken, but earned with a knife and a shot.

Zhang Shigui's laughter was even louder, and with a little madness, "What the hell are you laughing at, there is Lao Tzu to lead you, you should feel glad that you will not lose your life in a daze, don't talk nonsense, see Lao Tzu's battle flag, follow it, today is a good day to kill, Lao Tzu will accompany you, those who can keep up with Lao Tzu are heroes, if you don't have the courage to go back as soon as possible, otherwise you will be a ghost and come to complain, don't blame Lao Tzu for beheading you again......"

Boosting morale is what generals often do, generally they don't talk at length, and people with prestige in the army only need to stand in a place where the soldiers can see, and naturally they will play a role in calming the morale of the army.

The people who really motivate the morale of the soldiers are often the junior officers, and they will make the image of the commander perfect, if you can give them that impression......

Only people like Zhang Shigui, who have not spent a few days with his subordinates, can only rely on yelling to obtain initial recognition.

And this is not reliable, Zhang Shigui has an eighty percent chance of winning this battle, half of which should rely on the trust of his subordinates, because there is no firm charge, the odds of victory have dropped to forty percent.

Trust is not something that can be obtained for no reason, let alone a few words that can be supplemented, fortunately, there is an Ashina Danai by his side, who has always led the troops in the cavalry, and is very prestigious among the three thousand cavalry who went out.

With him, these elites of the Tang Army will be fearless of life and death.

Zhang Shigui secretly sneered, Guanxi people, would rather trust a Turkic Hu person than trust a Henan Han person, it is really ridiculous.

In this battle, let them see what kind of heroes and heroes the Henan thief they are talking about.

Of course, this is guaranteed by the confidence of victory, not winning? What else do you say, violating the prince's order, and losing the army, whether you die in battle or flee back, you can't escape a dead word.

Three thousand horsemen, with brisk steps, slowly headed east.

The cavalry of the Tang Army is now somewhat similar to the Daizhou Iron Cavalry, and after suffering a big loss from the Daizhou Cavalry, coupled with the lessons learned from the battle with Xue Ju, the Tang Army cavalry is also slowly changing.

They chose the slightly lighter half-body armor and round shield as the cavalry's most important defensive tools, and almost kicked the heavy cavalry into the corner.

Their war horses are generally tall, undoubtedly dominated by Hexi horses, with strong impact but insufficient endurance, and the Kansai soldiers with big shoulders and round waists are very compatible with their war horses.

The Kansai military brigade is not a joke in the world in this year, eight hundred miles of Qinchuan, since ancient times, the people have been wild and martial.

From the Qin and Han dynasties to the end of the Jin Dynasty, Kansai has always been the residence of the emperor, and from the nobles to the lowest level of the common people, they usually take pleasure in fighting and fighting.

Are Daizhou soldiers tough? It is indeed strong, but in the hundreds of years of war, in the face of the conquest of the Kansai army, it has always been at a disadvantage.

In other words, the Qin people, who were backed by Bashu, were almost invincible.

If it weren't for Li Po's sudden rise in Daizhou, the current Li Tang should actually be walking quickly on the road that swept the world.

And once the elite of Guanxi is led by a wise general, they will become particularly terrifying, just like at the beginning of the year, Li Shimin, the king of Qin, led his troops to cross the Pujin Bridge, although it failed in the end, but it can only be said that it is a form, and the strong combat effectiveness of the Li Tang army when crossing the bridge is obvious to all.

……………………

With the passage of time, even if the two armies were not walking fast, they were still gradually approaching, and neither side had any intention of hiding their whereabouts, let alone shielding the battlefield in every battle like Li Po.

Obviously, this kind of contest will test the patience and judgment of the leading generals.

Less than twenty miles away, Zhang Shigui carefully calculated the time, the detective reports kept coming, and there were enemy scouts around him, which was already a distance enough to shed blood.

As expected, the enemy army was gathering, and the people sent back by Lu Chengye kept asking when they would be able to turn around, and the one who thought that he could go back to Tongguan for dinner.

Zhang Shigui is constantly perfunctory, and the reasons are getting more and more sufficient, I waited for a trip, and I didn't even see the shadow of the enemy's army, how could I turn around, and how should I speak in front of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince after I went back?

Well, the three people came out, and the other two were deceived by Zhang Shigui into the thief ship, and Li Jiancheng's good intentions were all in vain, similar to what happened to the generals who were not subject to foreign military orders.

Estimating the time, Zhang Shigui led the army to retreat unhurriedly.

The deceptiveness of this move is too strong, and even the soldiers led by Zhang Shigui think that this General Zhang is just what he says is good, but in fact, he is only a little bold, look, he didn't even see the shadow of the enemy, so he wanted to take us back.

Ashina Danai couldn't help but send someone over to interrogate, he felt that if he wanted to lead the troops to rush up and fight for a while, it would be true to stop and rest his horsepower now, because for the cavalry, the two armies were not far apart, but if they charged, the distance was not close.

And the drawdown...... It's very demoralizing......

Even if Zhang Shigui is "confident", he is gradually nervous at this time, damn, these guys are too annoying, he is not a god, he has to judge the enemy's situation, but also temporarily appease his subordinates, he is even a little skeptical, rushing over with these guys, will it be like going to death?

But the subsequent reaction of the enemy army strengthened Zhang Shigui's confidence.

Shan Xiongxin is actually a general, don't look at people who have been in the underworld, and later transformed into robbers, but their ancestors have also been officials, and they are not petty officials.

Therefore, Shan Xiongxin can gain a foothold among the Wagang generals, not for no reason, brave and good at fighting, standing out from the war, and undoubtedly a very qualified commander of the army.

The Tongguan defenders came out of the pass, he was not much surprised, the cavalry, the number was not much, and the troops were divided into two places, he felt that it was harassment at the time, and this little soldier and horse was not enough to shake his 50,000 army.

That's right, it's his army of 50,000, Wang Shiwei in his eyes, is just a man who wears gold and silver, looks at the glamorous furnishings, has been in the Wagang Army for many years, and the concept of military power is life has long been deeply rooted in the bone marrow.

At this time, he definitely didn't think about what to do if he would be attacked, but he was thinking about how to preserve his strength and let others die first, and when the time came, how to compete with everyone.

If possible, the king of Chu ...... If he accidentally fell in the army, it's not impossible, the army is in chaos, who knows how he died?

Such a dark and utilitarian mode of thinking is not unique to him, I believe that many people at this time have such an idea, avoiding wars, fighting for merit, infighting, and the rhythm is very bright and clear.

Shan Xiongxin is like this, Xu Shi's performance is not bad, and other people such as Cheng Zhijie, Qin Qiong and others have average styles, and it can be seen from this point that Li Mi's failure to defeat Luoyang is really not wronged.

When the report came, the cavalry of the Tang Army retreated, Shan Xiongxin thought with some regretful hatred, and let Zhang Shigui's dog thief live a few more days, and when Tongguan was defeated, he must catch this bastard, rectify it well, and avenge his brother.

On the lips, he casually gave an order, "Order all the departments to slow down and find a flat place to camp." ”

Zhang Shigui expected it again, Shan Xiongxin didn't want to go to Tongguan City too early, at this time he finally felt that he should wait for the army behind, let's clear the obstacles for the army in front, and work hard, it's time for others to show their faces.

Afterwards...... I still need to discuss with Qin Qiong and Cheng Zhijie to see what they mean, don't be careless and be sold by these fucking villains.

Time is slowly flowing, the sunset is shining at night, dyeing the earth red, Zhang Shigui has his back to the sunset, and his eyes seem to be red.

From making up his mind to fight, to now, it is not more than half a day, everything is as he expected, but he has no time to be proud, success or failure is in this move, at this time, he has completely left those vague regrets and hesitations behind......
