"Report~!"

"General, the Turkic wolf rider has reached twenty miles from the East City Gate! There are about 20,000 people! ”

Three miles east of Shuofang City, in the bushes next to the official road, a cavalry galloped towards this side, and then hurriedly dismounted and hugged Chai Shao hidden in it.

Chai Shao's spirit was shocked, and he was a little excited when he heard this: "Okay! Jieli really didn't disappoint Benjun! Do you know who the leading generals are? ”

"General Hui, the enemy general is Ashina Sheer, a few years ago the Turks invaded our Tang border, and his subordinates accompanied General Qin to the north to resist the enemy, I have seen him!"

The soldier replied with a fist clenched.

Ashina Sheer, also known as Ashina Sheer, Turkic nobleman, was originally the second son of Luo Khan, when he was eleven years old, he was famous for his wisdom and bravery, and his archery skills were unparalleled, so he was known for his wisdom and courage and archery, so he built a tooth banner (a banner decorated with ivory, as a general or leader) in Mobei, and the son of Jieli Khan, he ruled Tiele, Hui, Tongluo and other tribes respectively. Ashina Sheer used a loose policy to suspend the army to support the people, and he did not collect taxes for ten years as an official, and once said: "The tribe is abundant, and it is enough for me." ”

"It's Ashina Sheer? Good! Today, General Ben avenged the revenge of Uncle Bao for the arrow of the year! You, go and explore again and report again! ”

Hearing that Jieli had sent a heavyweight general like Ashina Sheeryu to rescue Liang Shidu, Chai Shao was not afraid, but became more and more excited, and he hurriedly instructed the scout.

In the sixth year of Wude, the Turks invaded the border of the Tang Dynasty, Qin Qiong accompanied the then Qin King Li Shimin to lead the army north to resist the Turks.

Although he was encircled, it was naturally impossible for Qin Qiong to dismount and surrender, and in the melee between the two sides, Ashina Sheer saw the right time and shot Qin Qiong straight into the back of the heart with an arrow. At that time, if it wasn't for Han Tianhu's sacrifice of his life to rescue, Qin Qiong would probably have died on the battlefield in the sixth year of Wude! But even so, one of Han Tianhu's legs was disabled because of an arrow wound!

Therefore, Chai Shao is now saying that he is helping Qin Qiong avenge the revenge of the year, but he is helping Han Tianhu to avenge it!

"Yes! Checkmate! ”

The sergeant immediately took the order and left.

Chai Shao commanded left and right: "Turkic reinforcements are coming, order the three armies to prepare for battle!" ”

"Oh~!"

The left and right generals immediately received the order.

It has been six days since the army arrived outside Shuofang City, and a lot has happened in these six days.

First of all, the crops in the farmland outside Shuofang City have been trampled by the cavalry led by Xue Wanjun, which has made the Liang division anxious and tired of coping, send troops to clean them up, afraid that there will be a large army of the Tang Army behind them, but if you don't send troops, you can only watch the crops being destroyed in a mess.

In the end, the people in the city were panicked, after all, Shuofang City has become a "dead city", the city gate was closed by the Liang division, and all the crops outside the city were trampled, trapped in the city, which means that sooner or later they will be starved to death, and the army of the Tang State is lurking outside the city, although this matter has not been confirmed, but it is already a fact that everyone knows and acquiesces!

Liang Shidu saw that the people in the city were getting more and more fierce, so he had to send people in the city to publicize the news that the reinforcements of the Great Liang State would arrive soon, and on the other hand, he sent soldiers and horses out of the city to ask for help from the Jieli Khan on the grassland.

Although Li Xiaogong's men noticed the soldiers sent by Liang Shidu to ask for help, they did not stop it, because one of the purposes of the imperial court this time was to seduce the Turks to send troops!

On the afternoon of the day when Liang Shidu sent troops for help, Li Xiaogong led the main force to surround Shuofang City on all sides, and seeing that the Tang army was besieging the city on all sides, the people, gentry, and officials in the city were even more frightened.

At the same time, if Liu Min, the governor of Xiazhou, had sent hundreds of spies into the city before, and suddenly "exerted force" together, all kinds of rumors suddenly broke out in the city, such as: how many people and girls did Liang Shidu's son rob, Liang Shidu forcibly occupied ten palace maids in the palace after drinking, and afterwards all those palace maids were thrown into the snake pool by the queen to feed the snakes, Liang Shidu rebelled internally and violently surrendered to the Turks for his own glory, Liang Shidu forcibly occupied the wives of officials, and so on.

All kinds of gossip, whether it is true or not, anyway, all of them are spread in a similar way, and they all look like they are true! As a result, Liang Shidu's folk reputation in the Great Liang State fell again and again, and Liang Shidu also wanted to find out those Tang State spies who spread rumors, but he didn't have that energy at all, because now there have been many violent incidents of people in the city against the government, and more seriously, there are no soldiers in the army who mutinied, although all those mutinies have been ruthlessly suppressed, but the army's heart has been shaken, and if you are not careful at this time, you will lose everything.

Therefore, Liang Shi didn't dare to make a rash move, he could only win over some high-ranking generals, and promised them high-ranking officials and wealthy beauties, but whether such a woo could win real allegiance, only God knows!

………………………………

"Drive~!"

"Bang bang bang!"

After waiting for about an hour, where Chai Shao's army was lurking, he finally heard the sound of horses' hooves in the distance.

Chai Shao's face was highly nervous, and he commanded left and right: "Pass the order, and after the Turkic army enters our pocket formation, stumble and prepare!" This is followed by the preparation of archers! Finally the cavalry charged! ”

"Yes! Checkmate! ”

The left and right generals took the order and left.

"Bang bang bang!"

The sound of horses' hooves is getting closer and closer, and the Tang soldiers lying in the bushes on both sides of the official road can already faintly feel the earth trembling at this time!

Twenty zhang, fifteen zhang, ten zhang, five zhang, three zhang, the Turkic wolf riders did not realize anything wrong, and the whole team was still rushing at a super high speed, because they had already learned the news that Shuofang City was surrounded by the Tang army on the way here, and they had to rush to Shuofang City before Shuofang City was breached, so they had to use the fastest speed!

"Up!"

"Whoosh!"

I don't know who shouted loudly, dozens of tripwires suddenly pulled up on both sides of the road, and the Turkic army was caught off guard, and the vanguard of the first third of the front was suddenly tripped and turned on his back!

In such a state of running at high speed, it was impossible for the cavalry behind to slow down and avoid, and one by one they were all like dumplings, "poof, puff, knock", and carried in the meat pile in front!

"There is an ambush! There is an ambush! Order the cavalry behind to slow down immediately! ”

The Turkic general Ashina Sheer jumped off his horse at a critical moment, and at this moment he stood still and hurriedly shouted loudly.

But in this state, how easy is it for a Turkic wolf to ride and completely reduce its speed all at once? The strong inertia prompted batch after batch of cavalry to fall to the soldiers who had tripped to the ground before, and after all the four thousand vanguard troops of Ashina Sheeryu were planted, the army finally stopped!

Ashina Sheer looked at the mountain of Turkic cavalry corpses in front of him, although he was very distressed, he also knew that now was not the time to be sentimental, he hurriedly commanded the army and rearranged the formation!

At this moment, from the bushes on the right side of the road, thousands of Tang army crossbowmen suddenly stood up, they bent their bows and arrows, and then aimed directly in the direction of the Turkic army!

"Not good! Spread out the formation! All of you go! Rush! ”

Ashina Sheer's face changed, and he hurriedly ordered.

His command is supposed to be no problem, but it was a little late, Chai Shao waved his hand, and suddenly the rain of arrows in the sky was densely attacking towards the Turkic army!

"Woo Woo Woo Woo ~! Burst~! ”

The sound of arrows raining down and arrows entering the flesh was endless, and the wails of countless Turkic soldiers sounded in the Turkic camp!

"Rush! Rush out their archers! ”

Ashina Sheer Eryu waved his knife to remove the arrows flying towards him, and at the same time led the cavalry around him, charging towards the crossbowmen of the Tang Army!

Because he knows that at this distance, if he escapes, he will definitely be shot by the Tang Army from behind, and he can only bite the bullet and crush the Tang Army's archer team, so that he can fight the Tang Army head-on and have a chance to survive!

At this time, the "ruthlessness" in the bones of the Turks was reflected, although many Turkic soldiers still had feather arrows stuck in their bodies, they still followed Ashina Sheer and rushed towards the Tang army without fear of death, even if the blood stained their clothes red, they still didn't care!

The Turkic wolf cavalry is indeed a world-famous elite cavalry, and it deserves its name!

Chai Shao's eyes were slightly downcast, even as an opponent, he had to admire the cavalry on the opposite side a little!

He stretched out his right hand, and just wanted to give orders to the left and right, and when he ordered the cavalry behind the Tang Army to charge, a strange scene appeared that no one expected!

I saw that the sun was shining and the sky was clear a moment ago, but at this moment the sky suddenly darkened, and it became darker and darker, and soon I couldn't reach out and lose my fingers!

Faced with a strange scene, not only the Turkic cavalry was greatly frightened, but even the Tang army was in a commotion!

At the first moment, everyone was a little overwhelmed!

The offensive of the Turks paused slightly, and the military order that Chai Shao wanted to pass down also paused for a moment!

"Don't panic, this is God helping us Datang! The archers listened to the order and shot me in the direction of the Turks, fiercely! The rest of the soldiers, stumbling and getting ready, let all the Turks dismount the general! ”

Although the celestial phenomena were weird, but at the critical moment, Chai Shao quickly calmed down, he had an idea, and suddenly had a plan, so he shouted loudly.

His shout was heard not only by the Tang army, but also by the Turks on the official road opposite!

Chai Shao's idea is very simple, that is, since the sky is suddenly completely dark, and your own army can't see it, then your Turkic cavalry can't see it either! As soon as he shouted, in the dark environment, the Turks couldn't see the surrounding situation, and they were definitely afraid of the stumbling horses on the ground, and they didn't dare to charge this side anymore, so the archers could take the opportunity to shoot a few more rounds in the direction where the original Turks came!

Otherwise, in this dark environment, if the cavalry of the Tang Army went to charge into battle, it was very likely that they would accidentally injure their own people, and the outcome would be difficult to predict! Pay for one's whistle!

Sure enough, in this kind of environment where you can't see your fingers, as soon as you hear Chai Shao say that there are still tripping horses on the ground, the Turkic wolf rider suddenly threw a mouse trap, and involuntarily slowed down the speed of the horse, after all, Fang Cai's tripping horse rope has already caused the Turkic army to lose three or four thousand people!

The Turkic side slowed down the speed of the horse, but the Tang Army archers did not pause at all, although they didn't understand when Chai Shao was hiding a tripwire next to the official road, but at this time, they just obeyed the order and fired a salvo in the original direction of the Turkic cavalry!

(In fact, all the stumbling blocks of the Tang army were ambushed on the official road, and there was no one on either side of the official road, and Chai Shao was completely deliberately fooling the Turks)

Even though they couldn't see people, they remembered the general direction, and they just needed to shoot in that direction, anyway, there were many Turks, and they would definitely be able to shoot!

"Woo Woo Woo ~!"

In the dark night, countless arrows rained down towards the Turkic army, and at this time, the Turks had a stumbling rope in front of them, so that they did not dare to sprint at full speed, but if they turned around and fled, in this dark environment, they would definitely bump into their comrades, and their backs were likely to be shot into a hornet's nest by the Tang Army!

Between two fires!

The Turkic army at this time was really in a dilemma!

"Withdraw~! The whole army retreated~! The rear army becomes the front army, the former army becomes the rear army, all retreat! ”

The Tang army "closed its eyes", and under several rounds of volleys, the Turkic army could be described as suffering heavy casualties, why do you say that it has closed its eyes? Because now that you can't see your fingers, aren't those archers shooting arrows with their eyes closed?

Ashina Sheer knew that in this state, the Turkic army had no way to fight the Tang army at all, and he didn't know what "demon magic" the Tang army used, so that the sky suddenly turned dark, but even if the sky was bright again at this time, he couldn't win the Tang army with these remnants of the defeated generals! It's better to make a decision immediately, decisively order a retreat, and still save some living forces, and make a comeback after going back!

Naturally, there was a herald to convey Ashina Sheer's order, and the Turkic army immediately changed formations, leaving corpses in one place, and then fled to the distant official road in the dark and with memory!

Hearing that the Turks were going to flee, Chai Shao was in a hurry, bows and arrows had a range, and if the Turks fled from the range, then he would be completely out of line! But in this dark environment, if he rashly let the cavalry pursue, not only would he not be able to catch up, but it was very likely that the cavalry would trip over themselves because they couldn't see the road clearly!

That's when a magical scene happened!

Above the sky, a corner of the sun suddenly appeared, and then, the exposed part of the sun became larger and larger, and soon, the sky was bright again!

From the dark night, suddenly dawn, this strong sunlight made everyone a little uncomfortable, Chai Shao blindfolded his eyes and slowed down, after getting used to the strong sunlight outside, he roared loudly: "The soldiers of the three armies listen to the order!" Launched! Pursuit! ”

"Oh~!"

The soldiers of the Tang Army shouted loudly, and after a while, Chai Shao led 30,000 elites to chase towards Ashina Sheer!

It is said that the poor are not chasing, but today's defeated Turkic soldiers, he must chase!
