From the eyes of these Turkic nobles, it is natural to see that the combat effectiveness of these Sui troops is one stop higher than their Turkic cavalry, not only well-equipped, but also the quality of the soldiers is obviously much higher, and the men and horses are all wearing iron armor, all of them are murderous.

Chu Luo and Jieli were originally a little dissatisfied with Yuming's appointment as the main general, but now this dissatisfaction has been diluted a lot. After all, the combat effectiveness of the Sui army was there.

Shibi Khan walked to Yu Ming's side at this time, patted him lightly on the shoulder, and said solemnly: "General Yu, this battle is a matter of life and death for my Eastern Turks, if we are defeated, our Ashina will be wiped out." I've pinned all my hopes on you! ”

Yu Ming also nodded solemnly, and said, "Please rest assured!" Yuming will go all out! ”

He also knew in his heart that if this defeat and the Ashina tribe were destroyed, the Western Turks would definitely advance eastward. They had already married the Tiele tribe and won over the Murwei and Goryeo people, as long as they subdued the Xuyantuo tribe again, the steppe would be reunified, the Great Sui Dynasty would face a strong and unified Turkic kingdom, and the northern border would be difficult to tranquilize.

At this time, Shibi Khan strode onto the wooden platform, he glanced at the crowd around him, and then shouted: "My Turkic warriors, the armies of Tiele and Murowei have come to kill us, trying to destroy our Turks. If they win, all our men will be killed, our wives and children will be enslaved, and our possessions and cattle and sheep will be robbed! Therefore, we have no other way back, only to defeat the enemy, can we keep peace! Now, it's time for us to fight bloodily! We will fight to the end and give the enemy no chance! ”

"Defend your homeland! Fight to the end! Ten thousand Turkic warriors raised their swords and shouted.

Immediately, Shibi Khan pointed to Yu Ming behind him and said: "This battle with the Tiele people and the Murowei people is under the full command of General Yu of the Great Sui, and everyone must obey his orders!" If anyone dares to disobey, no matter what their identity is, they will not be spared! ”

At this time, Yu Mingfang jumped on the high platform, and then said in a loud voice: "I am Yu Ming, and I don't want to say more nonsense!" I just want to tell you: obey my orders, I will lead you to victory in this great war, so that you can keep your home, your wife and children, and you can defeat the invading enemy. If anyone dares to disobey my commands, let him do so! ”

With that, he took his bow and arrows in front of the crowd and set his eyes on the sky. He quickly drew a sharp arrow and shot it upwards as well.

Just listen to "whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!" "Sound, only sharp arrows like meteors, only flying towards the clouds.

Everyone was very surprised, although Yu Ming was able to shoot arrows at the same time made them a little amazed. But at this time, there are no birds in the sky, what is the use of shooting arrows into the air?

Just when everyone was puzzled, Yu Ming pulled out another sharp arrow with a fast speed, and then put it on the bowstring and shot it together.

After the sound of "whoosh, whoosh, whoosh" arrows, there was soon a "dang, dang, dang" sound of metal impact. Immediately, a long, black whirring object fell from the sky and landed right on the high platform.

Everyone looked at it and was surprised.

It turned out that the sharp arrow that Yu Ming shot first had been overtaken by the sharp arrow that was shot later, and it happened to be shot into the feather of the tail of the arrow, and then fell down together.

"Oh my God! If you can be the last to shoot and shoot the previous arrow, you can already be called a sharpshooter. And this Yuming can shoot an arrow at one time, and the arrow hits the tail of the arrow, is this still a person? Even Shibi Khan was shocked by Yuming's archery skills, and couldn't help but exclaim.

Not to mention that the Turkic soldiers in the audience were dumbfounded, even those Sui soldiers did not expect that their main general, archery skills had reached such a sophisticated level.

After a moment of silence, the audience erupted in cheers like a mountain shaking. Both the Turks and the Sui did not hesitate to give words of praise to Yuming. No one was dissatisfied with Yuming anymore.

Yu Ming smiled slightly, he knew that no matter how much nonsense he said to a steppe people like the Turks, it was better to use pure force, only in this way could he really shock and subdue them.

And the six arrows just now have conquered the hearts of the Turkic soldiers and won their respect.

Yu Ming had already stepped on the war horse at this time, and then waved his spear and shouted: "Let's go!" Let's defeat the Murowei first! ”

All the soldiers responded with a bang, and then followed Yuming and marched first towards the death sands where the Murowei people were entrenched.

……

Looking at the sun, it was already noon. Yu Ming ordered the whole army to have lunch first and then continue the march. They were now only five miles away from the Sands of Death, and the enemy was already close at hand.

"General Yu, now that you are the main general, what is the best way to attack the enemy?" Jieli still asked with a somewhat unkind look. He was somewhat convinced of Yuming's force, but he was still skeptical of his command strategy.

Yu Ming said lightly: "Of course I already have a way!" Half an hour ago, I had already asked Lin Mo to reconnoiter the Death Sands, and found that the Murwei army had already left the sand and were moving eastward, but they had only walked less than ten miles. It seems that they have been informed and know that Bonham is finished, so they are ready to join the Tielers. ”

He frowned at this time and said, "Therefore, we must completely defeat them before they can join up with the Tielers!" Otherwise, when they join forces, there will be 80,000 men, and we will have no chance to defeat the enemy! ”

"General Yu, we understand what you mean, that is, you have to adopt various strategies against the enemy!" Chu Luo grabbed the reins on the horse's back and said, "But there are also 10,000 people in Murowei!" It's the same strength as us, and if we fight them with all our might, even if we can win, I'm afraid we won't have the strength to fight the Tiele people anymore......"

After hearing this, Fang smiled slightly and said, "Of course I won't fight with them!" Originally, my plan was to attack them from two directions, but now I have a better idea......"

Yu Ming then told him about his new plan.

After everyone heard this, they were all amazed.

Chu Luo sighed: "General Yu, this method of yours is completely unimagined by us, and I believe that it will definitely catch the enemy off guard." ”

Tuli was also amazed by Yu Ming's thoughts, and only Jieli muttered quietly beside him: "This little is really despicable enough." It seems that in the future, if we are at war with the Sui army, we will be more careful about this small one. ”

"That's it! Let's prepare to attack too, and in half an hour we will be engaged with the enemy. After Yu Ming finished explaining the new combat plan, he waved his horsewhip and slapped the horse's ass a few times.

The horse on which he had sat down immediately galloped forward.

"Boss! Wait for me! Seeing this, Guo Yi and Lin Mo hurriedly followed.

Seeing this, the eldest grandson Wuji and Yu Chengdu couldn't help but smile at each other. He ordered the Qiansui army: "Everyone get on the horse!" Get ready for this battle......

……

Lebe, the leader of the Murowei people, was marching slowly eastward with his 10,000 troops, and the march was slower because they had brought with them a large amount of baggage and dry rations. But the further he went, the more frightened he felt, and he always felt that something bad was about to happen.

At this time, he asked his younger brother Letai, "Haven't we heard anything from our scouts?" ”

"Yes, big brother, I have asked the scout captain many times, and he said that the scouts sent out have not come back since the days ago. Now the people sent to scout have been transferred to our personal guards, but they do not dare to move far away, after all, this is close to the Turkic tent. Zheletai said.

At this time, the generals also spoke one after another, discussing what action should be taken under the current situation that the Western Turkic envoys had been destroyed and the enemy situation was unknown.

Some advocated attacking the Turkic tent immediately, because it was possible that the Turks had not yet discovered them, and now killing them would take the Turks by surprise.

Others, however, believed that even if the Turks did not discover their own, their tents would be heavily guarded, and that the Murwei would suffer heavy losses if they attacked first.

The reason why the Murwei people participated in this battle was because Goryeo offered them very generous conditions. Agreed to cede to them the six-mile pasture near Murowei. This made it impossible for Lebel to refuse.

Moreover, two days earlier, the Goryeo envoys had returned east with the newly awakened Gaisu, and when they passed through the Death Sands, Gaisu had given the Murowei people an extra gold tael and demanded that they kill Yuming to vent their hatred.

At the same time, the nobles of the Murowei Department were also really worried that if Goryeo was destroyed by the Sui Dynasty, the next target would be Murowei. That's why Lebel agreed to send an army of 10,000 troops, divided into countless squads, disguised as caravans and horse bandits, to quietly march to the vicinity of the Turkic tents, and then lurk in the sands of death. And the method of camping on the sand with planks was also told to them by the Western Turkic Bohan.

The idea of Zhele Bebe was that in case of a real battle with the Eastern Turks, he would only cooperate with the attack and let the Tiele people rush to the front. So, he's definitely not going to take the lead.

Everyone discussed for a long time, but they did not come up with a result. In the end, Lebe decided to go with the plan that had been agreed upon: in the event that the news leaked and the Eastern Turks were on guard, they would join up with the Tiele and then launch a strong attack.

However, he was a very cautious man. Although he let his troops move closer to the Tiele people, he marched in a barrel formation with the utmost care. Anyway, this is a prairie, so you don't have to worry about blocking it.

The biggest advantage of the barrel array is that no matter which direction the enemy attacks your side from, you can resist it for a while, so as to give your army enough time to react.

However, marching in such a barrel formation, coupled with the fact that they carried a large amount of dry rations and baggage tents, the speed of the march was much slower, and at this pace, it would have to take at least a day to reach the original meeting place.
