Chapter 557: Sweeping the Grassland
With the cooperation of the soldiers of the firearms superintendent, they constantly tore apart the encirclement of Tuyuhun, and the encirclement of Tuyuhun was quickly shattered.
The Tu army is naturally unwilling to fail, but as long as there are Tuyuhun soldiers to go to encircle, there are grenades on the heads of everyone, although the power of the grenade is not as good as gunpowder bombs, but in the dense Tu army, its lethality is quite powerful, but it is like a sharp sword hanging on the head of the Tu army, so that the Tu army can not help but be afraid, which makes the Tang army like a tiger with wings.
Many of the Turkish army had the intention of sniping at the firearms supervisors, but unfortunately they had already been guarded by the guards of the left leading army like heroes, and the protection was tight, and the Turkish army was not given any chance at all.
Soon, under the deterrence of grenades, a large number of soldiers of the left leading army quickly broke out and left the battlefield.
"Hahaha!"
Cheng Jin, who had escaped, laughed heartily, he originally thought that he was in a catastrophe this time, but he didn't expect that only thirty firearms supervisors would actually rescue him.
"It's this army again, it's disgusting!" The Tianzhu King watched the Tang army easily escape from the encirclement, his eyes were red, if there was no threat of grenades, this Tang army would not have been able to break through so easily.
"King Qiqi Tianzhu, the reinforcements of the Tang army are coming, and it is less than ten miles away from here." A scout came in a hurry to report.
"Less than ten miles!" The figure of the Heavenly Pillar King was shocked, it must be the signal bomb that pointed the way, so that the Tang army reinforcements could come so quickly.
"Retreat!" The Heavenly Pillar King looked helpless and said hatefully.
This time, after such a long siege, this Tang army has long been exhausted, and if there is no firearms supervisor to make trouble, this period of time the Tu army is enough to wipe out this Tang army.
"Dangdang!"
With a hurried sound, the Tuyuhun cavalry Mingjin withdrew their troops, and a large number of Tuyuhun cavalry began to retreat.
"I want to run! It's that easy. "Cheng Yanjin has suffered such a big loss, how can he be willing, seeing the reaction of the Tu army, coupled with the calculation of time, it is obvious that the Tang reinforcements have come.
Cheng Yanjin waved his hand, and the left leading guard who had just broken through did not retreat but advanced, but followed the Tu army, not allowing the Tu army to retreat easily, and the annoyed Tuyuhun cavalry turned its horse head to counterattack, and the left leading guard retreated in the direction of reinforcements without hesitation.
"This is really very good!" Merton, who was heavily protected in the army, was dumbfounded, and he watched Cheng Yanjin turn the breakout battle into a guerrilla war.
"Cunning Tang Army!" King Tianzhu looked at the left leading guards who did not fight with the Tu army, but kept entangled, and couldn't help but curse shamelessly. In his impression, the Tang army has always been brave and meaningless, even if the enemy is strong, it will never retreat, and when the army in front of him fought just now, it was the demeanor of a complete Tang soldier, but who would have thought that as soon as he broke out, he suddenly changed from a battlefield gentleman to a street scoundrel.
If the Tianzhu King knew what kind of style Cheng had when he bit the Jin Dynasty, I am afraid that he would not be so depressed, and the existence he encountered would give the entire Tang Dynasty a headache.
"Knock knock!"
With the smoke and dust billowing from the north, the sound of hurried horses' hooves is getting closer and closer, and the reinforcements of Datang have finally arrived.
"Kill!"
With a wave of his hand, a large number of Turkic cavalry burst into the battlefield.
The form of the battlefield was immediately reversed, and the Tuyuhun cavalry immediately turned their horses and fled, but they were bitten by Cheng Yanjin and led the left leading army guards.
A large number of Turkic cavalry cut directly into the Tuyuhun cavalry, like a sharp blade, separating and surrounding the Tuyuhun cavalry, and finally wiped out little by little.
After a long time, the smoke and dust of this grassland slowly dissipated, revealing the Tu army killed in battle and the high-spirited Tang army everywhere.
"Has the Heavenly Pillar King been found?" Merton and the other firearms supervisors had already run out of grenades and did not participate in the pursuit, and only after the wartime had ceased to do so did they rush forward and ask.
Cheng Yanjin shook his head regretfully and said: "This old boy saw that the situation was not good, so he abandoned his subordinates and fled one step earlier, it depends on whether General Qixin He Li can get rid of this scourge." ”
For the King of Tianzhu who put the left leading guard in danger, Cheng Yanjin wanted to kill him to pay tribute to the soldiers of the left leading guard who were besieged and sacrificed, but the left leading guard had just fought a big battle, and he had no strength to pursue again, and the task of continuing to pursue the king of Tianzhu was handed over to the Turkic soldiers of Qixin He Li.
However, it is a pity that it didn't take long for Qixin He Li to return victoriously, but he still failed to catch up with the Tianzhu King.
At the same time as Qixin He Li returned, Li Jing led the Tang Army to finally arrive, and when he saw that the left leader of the army had turned from danger to safety, he was secretly happy.
Soon, the story of the battle spread throughout the army, and the firearms superintendent once again attracted the attention of the whole army.
Merton led the 30 cavalry to rescue the besieged left leading guards, which blew through the entire Tang army camp like a whirlwind, and all the soldiers were in an uproar.
Putting aside the power of the grenade, the courage of thirty people who dared to storm the army alone made countless people look at the firearms superintendent.
"Thank you!"
Cheng Chumo came to Merton's face, hugged Merton and said gratefully.
"Let go of me, I'm not as good as Long Yang, and you haven't taken a bath for many days." Merton hurriedly pushed Cheng Chumo away, and said with a disgusted expression.
Qin Huaiyu and Wei Chi Baolin on the side suddenly burst into laughter, Cheng Chumo suddenly blushed, and waited for the two friends to take a look hatefully, and the atmosphere that had been brewing suddenly disappeared.
"The firearms supervisor attacked, not because it was General Cheng who was besieged, even if any soldier was trapped, the firearms supervisor would rescue him without hesitation." Merton's positive color channel.
"Anyway, this time the Cheng family owes you a favor." Cheng Chumo patted Merton's shoulder, if there was no Merton's relief, whether Cheng Biting Jin could come out alive is another matter, losing Cheng Biting Jin's pillar, the Cheng family is afraid that the future road will be difficult.
But fortunately, this time, the Tang army turned defeat into victory and eliminated Tuyuhun's last counterattack.
"I'm afraid there aren't many of Fu Yun's troops now, and it's not far from destroying Tuyuhun!" Qin Huaiyu smiled and said.
Merton nodded, the two Tang armies successively broke through the various tribes of Tuyuhun and eliminated the resistance of Tuyuhun, and the strategy of dismembering Tuyuhun formulated by Li Jing has completely worked, according to the Tuyu prisoners, there are now 10,000 elite royal tent cavalry in Fu Yun's hands.
As long as Fu Yun is found, this battle will be over.
At the same time, the Southern Route Army overcame many difficulties and finally reached Baihai, which was the source of the famous Sanjiangyuan in later generations, and eliminated the last tribe of Tuyuhun hiding here.
However, when the armies of the north and south swept across the grassland, no trace of Fu Yun was found.
"And the end of the city!"
The eyes of all the Tang army were focused on a small city in the westernmost part of the Tuyuhun map, and all indications indicated that Fu Yun must have retreated to the end of the city with the last strength of Tuyuhun.
However, when everyone saw the long distance on the map, they couldn't help but gasp.
If you want to reach the end of the city, you need to pass through the huge Qaidam Basin, where there are many desert Gobi, thousands of miles of uninhabited land, a total length of nearly 3,000 miles, it is conceivable that this will be an arduous expedition.
Everyone understood that Fu Yun wanted to use the expedition to drag down the Tang army this time and make the Tang army daunting.
"Pursue him immediately, even if Fu Yun escapes to the cape, he will be eliminated!" Li Jing waved his long sword and said without hesitation.
Seeing that Li Jing, who was in his sixties, resolutely stepped on the war horse, this time, everyone did not have any objections, and immediately crossed the horse to fight.
