In the Shuanglong ditch, thick smoke billowed and flames soared into the sky.

In this battle, 25,000 Turkic elite horsemen were all buried here, and for more than ten days, crows and vultures flew all over the valley, and fell into the valley under black pressure, competing with the wild beasts in the mountains, pecking at the corpses of people, horses, cattle and sheep.

Looking at it from afar, the sight is terrifying.

On the same day, Li Po saw that there was no possibility for the Turks in the valley to rush out, so he immediately packed up his army.

In fact, at this time, he really wanted to lead his troops north, take advantage of the Turks' efforts to go south, and give the Turks another time, he believed that if he took these Heng'an Town cavalry to rush into the grassland in the clouds.

Not to mention that he can sweep through the Turkic tribes, it is estimated that the Turkic tribes gathered in Dingxiang County will be severely damaged by him on the grassland, and if the speed is faster, maybe he can rush into Dali City and create a tragedy that shocks the north and the south.

Of course, such a result should almost come at the cost of the destruction of the Heng'an Zhen Army, and the Turks will definitely encircle and suppress the Heng'an Zhen Army on the grassland as if they were crazy, and fight for thousands of miles, and the possibility of breaking through is very small.

So, it's just a temptation that looks beautiful.

Li Po thinks that he is not a loyal martyr, so he can't do such a vigorous thing.

Therefore, he was no longer greedy for merit, and immediately ordered the men and horses scattered everywhere to be gathered back, and did not even set up camp again to let the soldiers who had not rested for several days rest and recuperate, and returned to the army overnight.

The results of this battle are undoubtedly extremely brilliant, and the annihilation of the Turkic elite cavalry like this system, not to mention that after the founding of the Great Sui Dynasty, it was also a rare military victory during the Northern Qi Dynasty.

But for the Hengan Town Army, there is not much substantial gain.

In terms of meritorious deeds, the addition of officials to the knighthood can only be carried out within the Hengan Town Army. The so-called imperial court is no longer to be counted on.

Moreover, the spoils of war were far inferior to the battle in the winter of the eleventh year of the Great Cause, which injured nearly 2,000 soldiers and captured tens of thousands of cattle and sheep.

The gain is not big, but the loss is a bit nerve-wracking.

Recruiting another 2,000 troops is a trivial matter for Yunnei, but how big is the difference between cavalry and infantry. Needless to say, the cultivation and training of cavalry is not an overnight thing.

The army of Heng'an Town spent two or three years, while sharpening the cavalry in the war, while stepping up training, there were tens of thousands of cavalry available.

However. The consequences of this battle were far-reaching, and Li Po did not expect it at this time.

…………………………

Under the county town of Mayi, the Turkic Khan account.

Only on the second day of the fire in Shuanglonggou, Shibi Khan received a battle report.

The news was not sent by scouts, but from the Turkic tribes that went south, and the news was very vague, only saying that there were traces of the Sui army under the mountains in the north, as if they were at war with people.

It is not possible to get close. There are elite cavalry of the Sui people swimming quickly to the left, and there are not many soldiers among them. You can only wait for the support of other tribes or the Khan to send troops to help Yunyun.

After Shibi Khan received the news, he was still thinking about whether the Heng'an Zhenjun army came out as expected, why there was no news from Ashina Siyun, and whether the 10,000 elite horsemen who were already ready to go north now and so on.

Before he could think about it, the news came one after another.

The rangers sent out met the Sui scouts one after another in the north and suffered heavy losses. Taken together, on a rather long line in the north, there should have been about 3,000 Sui cavalry, almost extending from Shenwu to the east bank of Cangshui.

Shibi Khan felt a little shocked at this time, but he also wanted to laugh a little. It's also a little unbelievable, the Sui people's Heng'an Town army has only a few people, and they dare to block the retreat of the army like this, is this looking for death? Who gave them such guts? Or is it ...... They got reinforcements?

It didn't take long for his suspicions to be broken.

Someone came to report that smoke rose from a place in the north, and then someone came to report that the Sui cavalry had withdrawn.

At that time, Shibi Khan was shocked.

Ashina Siyun's 25,000 cavalry has arrived now, and there is no news at all, what does this mean?

There are two possibilities, one is that Ashina Siyun wants to make meritorious contributions alone and gain more glory, if that is the case, whether Ashina Siyun defeats the enemy later, after returning to the royal court, Shibi Khan will cut off his head, because those who disobey the Khan's order should not walk on the ground.

The other one may be very bad, Ashina Siyun's fool buried the many Turkic warriors he led.

Therefore, no matter which possibility is possible, Ashina Siyun is already a dead man in the heart of Shibi Khan, and only such a human head can make Shibi Khan calm down the accumulated anger a little.

Immediately, Shibi Khan no longer hesitated, and ordered 10,000 elite horsemen to immediately go north to Yunnei, according to the previous plan, it should be able to block the retreat of the Heng'an Zhen army.

Unfortunately, strategy has to allow enough time for lagging messaging in this year, otherwise all strategies will look full of holes.

In fact, even if Shibi Khan didn't waste time and immediately ordered people to go north to join the battle after getting the news, it was already too late, almost one day and one night, enough time for the Heng'an town army to calmly retreat to Yunnei.

And the county town of Mayi, which was covered with bruises, still stands in front of the Turkic army, tenacious like an old pine in the mountains.

A little more than a day later, Shibi Khan received the most accurate and worst piece of information to date.

Ashina Siyun had 25,000 men, and the whole army was wiped out in a valley.

Hearing the news, Shibi Khan almost didn't spurt out a mouthful of old blood.

The stupid Ashina Siyun made him look extremely stupid this time in the south.

At this time, Shibi Khan had already escaped his anger, and 25,000 elite horsemen were the most brave and warlike warriors among the Turks.

It is said that the Turkic Khanate has a million armor, but speaking of which, the warriors of the Turkic tribes combined, how many such 25,000 men and horses can be made?

This was undoubtedly a very heavy blow, and Shibi Khan would rather lose 100,000 or more cavalry than such 25,000 men.

Shibi Khan is not Emperor Yang Guang of Sui, he is not so paranoid, and he can also recognize what kind of situation he will face in the future.

For a king, the decision at this time was very painful, but when he made the decision, he quickly withdrew his troops and immediately withdrew his troops back to the clouds.

Because there was no point in capturing the county town of Mayi, it was impossible for him to lead the army to Jinyang City again, but he left a large blank space in the rear for such an increasingly fierce enemy.

Moreover, it is impossible for him to lead his army to attack Yunnei City, which seems to be a little harder than the county town of Mayi.

Then, there is only one way left to withdraw the troops.

Revenge is not going to sway the Turkic khan's decision.

After the anger passed, Shibi Khan was mentally prepared to face the accusations of the Turkic nobles when he returned.

And the unruly Khan of the West...... At this time, Shibi Khan's gaze was no longer staring at the Sui Land, but had turned to the western grassland.

This brother of his had been at the foot of the holy mountain for too long......

Of course, he also has a lot of dissatisfaction with Dongfang Khan, who has been preserving his strength, waiting to vent.

Therefore, the impact of this battle is still only in the ascendant, and the blow of the Heng'an Zhen Army has indeed made the Turks hurt into the bone marrow, and the most direct consequence is to make the Turkic army withdraw.

At the end of March of the thirteenth year of the Great Cause, Shibi Khan led the army to return to the north, and he personally led the Turkic nobles to Shuanglonggou, looking at the crows and vultures in the sky, and set up sacrifices for the Turkic soldiers who died in battle.

The golden wolf banner of the Turkic Khan was also dyed with sadness here, and the tenacious Jin Sui people, in the most chaotic season, did not let the Turks bargain, and severely damaged the Turkic army going south.

On this day, the Turkic nobles who came to the front of Shuanglonggou finally firmly remembered a name, which was the name of the Sui people carved with the blood of countless Turkic warriors.

Hengan Zhenjun Li Ding'an.

Just like when they remembered the names of Han Baohu and He Ruobi, these Sui people.

Every name is written with countless blood and hatred.

More than a month of fighting has finally ended, and Mayi County is in shambles.

The two small cities of Mayi County were invaded by the Turks, and the slaughter of the cities was horrific, and because the Turks moved south very quickly, the people of Mayi, who did not have time to withdraw into the city or fled into the mountains, also fell under the butcher's knife of the Turks.

The population of Mayi County, which was fiercely attacked by the Turks, was almost halved, and tens of thousands of military and civilian officials spilled blood on the head of Mayi City.

Even after the war, the casualties could no longer be counted, and many families and entire families died in the battle.

The rest, whether it is a large family, or an ordinary person, or even a homeless person in the city, there are people who have died in battle, and the crying in the city of Mayi is endless, day and night, almost like a ghost.

Shenmu City became an empty city again, and it was immediately abandoned and converted into a post station in Mayi County, an unprecedented post station.

Yunnei is much quieter here, along the Great Wall, and full of scouts of the Heng'an town army, the war horses of the Heng'an town army, cattle and sheep also began to wander on the plains, and the impact of today's drought on animal husbandry is not too great.

At this time, Li Po received a message from Wang Rengong, the Taishou of Mayi County, and wanted to invite him to go to Mayi County, and another news attached was that Li Yuan, who was left behind in Taiyuan, raised troops and went south.

Hearing this news, even if Li Po had expected it, his heart was full of mixed feelings at this time, and the feeling of anger came to his heart one after another.

The Taiyuan guard, who had a strong army in Jinyang, did not send a single soldier to rescue Ma Yi and resist the invasion of the Turks, but led his troops to fight for his throne.

Then, the people who stayed behind in Jinyang Taiyuan also arrived in Yunnei, and ordered him to raid the back road of the Turks, delaying the pace of the Turks' troops.

It's a laughable order.
